Summary
After a life under his father’s thumb, Fire Nation omega Zuko is stripped of his crown prince title and sent South with expectations that far outweigh that of a traditional omegan mate. He is sentenced to live out the rest of his life in Wolf Cove, a Southern city that rivals Agna Qel’a in the North in power, influence, and reputation, as their chief’s new husband.
For the Southern Water Tribe, the marriage is an important step in repairing international alliances after nearly a hundred years of war, a means to an end for a future of peace.
For Fire Lord Ozai, the marriage is an opportunity to have a spy inside the heart of his greatest, and least known, threat.
For Zuko, the marriage is an escape, but he doesn’t know if what awaits him on the other side of the ocean is truly safer than what he’s running from. His father likes to surround himself with powerful alphas with cruel tendencies; why should his new husband be any different?

Summary
"You think I hate you? You think I'd ever kill you?" Sokka holds Zuko's face in both hands, blood dripping from his lips. "I'd fall on my sword for you. I'd find you anywhere. What do you think that means?"
Rescued, but imprisoned, Zuko finds himself no further from death on a water tribe ship. Sokka, the chief, would see him bleeding out on the boards of the deck as justice. He's a fire bender, the evil of the war that his father rages through their world. Zuko hasn't been a part of that war. Not for years. Now he's thrust back into it against his will, finding himself fighting on a side he never expected to be a part of. Maybe he'll find a cause worth fighting for; someone worth fighting for.

Summary
At Sokka’s behest, the Gaang skips rescuing Zuko during the Siege at the North Pole. Instead they leave him, unconscious, buried in the snow.
In completely unrelated news, Sokka’s haunted by a ghost now.

Summary
The bath takes care of the sweat. Takes care of the burnt bits of skin and fat that still cling to his palm. Zuko scrubs his body until it’s raw, blushing red; he dunks his head under the hot water and stays there, staring up at the dark, vaulted ceiling of the washroom until his lungs run out of breath to use.
The oil of honeysuckle and opium and cinnamon, sweet and sharp and earthy, does not wash the stench of scorched flesh out of his nose.Zuko falls asleep on the evening of his official coronation, when he’s twenty-one-years old and has finally reached his majority. Zuko wakes on the morning of the Agni Kai with his father, eight years earlier.
This is annoying for several reasons, like the fact that the War is still ongoing, that he has zero friends, and that Ozai is not in jail.
It’s time to scheme.Series
