    Summary

    When Anastasia Dalian, a headstrong American heiress, boards the Titanic, she expects a voyage of luxury, not destiny. A chance encounter with First Officer William Murdoch sparks an unexpected romance that burns bright even as the ship sails toward disaster.

But fate isn’t finished with them yet. Their love, forged in the cold of the Atlantic, refuses to die, enduring through war, heartbreak, and the relentless march of time.

    Summary

    They claw toward love like a drowning man claws for the surface.

    The exiled saint, hiding wounds she never let heal. The rebel forged in fire, burning too bright to hold. The broken predator, desperate for redemption he doesn’t believe he deserves. And the beast cloaked shadow, trembling beneath the weight of what she’s becoming.

    They bleed, break, and stumble through ruin, haunted by gods, memories, and monsters that wear familiar faces. Every step forward cuts a little deeper. Every moment of hope is just another way to hurt.

    The devil thinks he owns the soul. The vampire thinks he owns the body. They are children fighting over a corpse. I am the gravity that pulls the dead stars home. I do not need a contract. I need only time. Let them struggle. Let them burn. In the end, the dark eats everything. And she is already falling.

    The story begins in the game, but ends in the Void. Canon is a memory. The hunger is real.

    Summary

    Artemis has mastered the art of wearing masks, effortlessly slipping into different personas to ensure her survival in a life of blood and cruelty. She’ll do whatever necessary to complete her missions, all to perform to the expectations forced upon her by a malevolent master.

    Sleuthing the dark, shadowed streets of Baldur’s Gate one minute, adducted by mind flayers the next, Artemis finds herself in a rare situation; she is wholly, irrevocably, out of her depth. Thrust into unfamiliar territory and surrounded by a group of enigmatic strangers, the ruthless assassin must don the persona of the plucky, witty mercenary.

    It should come as second nature to deceive and manipulate her new companions, to tangle them seamlessly in her web of lies. Yet, Artemis discovers she is not alone in the art of manipulating minds and hearts. Astarion not only harbours secrets as deep and twisted as hers, but he also seems unwittingly driven to outmanoeuvre her in her own game. Unbeknownst to him, manipulation is a dance whose steps Artemis has long perfected.

    Let the games begin, high elf.

    Summary

    [COMPLETE]

     

     

    A retelling.

    “How … likely is it we can chalk this up to a naughty dream?”

    Dropping her hands to her lap, she squints at him. “Well, now that you’ve said it—not very likely.”

    He’s still half on her bedroll where’s she’d left him, propped up on one arm, other hand massaging at his throat. It takes her a while to process the wariness in his eyes—a length of time where her silent observation of him only seems to heighten his unease.

    Just to be thorough, she briefly touches her fingers to either side of her throat. When she feels only smooth skin, she sighs again, shaking her head.

    “… What are you going to do?” Astarion asks in a low and quiet voice, evidently having followed her—soundlessly in the way she knows he can be when he wants to. “What are you … What are you going to tell them?”
