Summary
Slow burn romance. Sensitive topics mentioned inside. Reader discretion is advised. (The non-con tag is for a MUCH later chapter.)
If this story had a theme song, it would be more than one. Give by Sleep Token, Sweet Tangerine by The Hush Sound, and TIMEZONE by Måneskin.
Tav is a sharp-witted bard with a tongue as quick as her blade. Astarion is a dangerous vampire spawn rogue, bound by shadows and scars of the past. When their paths intertwine, sparks fly. Will something beautiful bloom between them, or will it be plucked before it ever has the chance to grow?
For clarification: this isn't a self insert, but Tav is based on me in build. A wood elf, 5'4, 140lbs (lean, muscular build- I lift weights).
-"You are more than what he wanted you to be," I murmur quietly. Astarion's gaze cuts to mine, sharp at first and then softening around the edges.
"I'm a monster," he whispers with a shake of his head. "I've lured countless people to their deaths. Innocents."
"That's not who you are anymore," I insist. I give his shoulder a gentle squeeze. "You can take back the narrative. Only you get to say who you are."

Summary
The Absolute is gone. The city rebuilds.
Astarion made a promise beneath the moon- to love Tav for the rest of her days.
He did not expect those days to include children.

I guess I wasn't done with this story just yet. This takes place after my other work, The Pale Elf. You don't necessarily have to read it before this, but some things might make more sense if you do.
My ex husband hated Taylor Swift, and I've been getting back into her lately. This was inspired by her song, Wildest Dreams. Specifically these lyrics:
Say you'll remember me
Standing in a nice dress
Staring at the sunset, babe
Red lips and rosy cheeks
Say you'll see me again
Even if it's just in your wildest dreamsSeries
