Summary
It was in the years after the Fall of Netheril that fate decided to push the two of you together: the daughter of the God of Divination and the son of the Archdevil of the Eighth. An unlikely pair, but you learned throughout the years that you had more in common than you thought: you were both driven by ambition and you both longed to become more than what your fathers made you.

Summary
“Adultery,” Raphael repeats plainly. “Infidelity.”
“Yes.” Astarion tosses his quill down. “It appears that I’ve spent the last few months drinking, fucking, and compelling people of our government. I recall none of it, mind you. But given Lilith’s absence, Halsin insisting that I not be left alone, and Shadowheart desperately praying for my damned soul—I can conclude that I have dragged myself into a bender that has wreaked havoc on my life as I knew it."
A sequel to the events of Hellish Rebuke. This story will not make sense if you have not read its predecessor.

Summary
“I mean it,” she said. “Don’t kill anyone, Astarion. You’ve gotten what you wanted. Seven thousand lives was enough.”
“I don’t take orders from you anymore. You just said so, yourself.”
“The moment you kill someone,” Rose replied, “is the moment I'll know that my next task is to stop you.”
“Darling,” Astarion grinned, “I would sincerely like to see you try.”

The Vampire Ascendent has crossed a line. Eleven years after making the biggest mistake of her life and losing the man she loved, tiefling wizard (now Archmage) Rosalie decides it’s time to put this Astarion in the ground for good. Hopefully, both her head and her heart are strong enough to see this awful task through to its end.

Summary
Astarion’s voice was low and enticing, his scarlet eyes fixed on her with intense fervor, flickering with the fanatical flames of a man who was determined to retaliate against a world that had condemned and abandoned him to centuries of suffering.
“What do you say? Would you be my vengeful little assassin?”
When one comes crawling back to the doorstep of a slightly manipulative, somewhat self-serving, and definitely blood-thirsty ex-lover, they better have a damn good reason. Living as an involuntary murderous psychopath on self-exile, all while being hunted by want-to-be-killers, is just that.
A post-canon story of political intrigue, vengeance, and redemption, where Ascended Astarion and a morally complex Dark Urge seek power in Baldur’s Gate while grappling with the ghosts of their pasts. Set in a city where the Vampire Ascendant is far from the worst thing stalking the shadows, their journey blurs the line between justice and monstrosity.
