Summary
"All of this is mine now. This dreadful palace I’ve remade. The power he so desperately wanted. The respect and gratitude of the entire city. And do you know what my greatest victory is? What I have that he never had?" Astarion’s thumb smoothed along Tav’s cheekbone in admiration.
"You," he breathed. "I have someone who trusts me completely. Who loves me more than anything. I hope that whatever hell he’s rotting in, he sees what I have. How much more I am than what he tried to make me. I have everything I’ve ever wanted."After Baldur’s Gate is saved, all of Tav’s dreams have come true. Life as a Vampire Lord’s beloved pet is sweet, especially for a bard who only ever wanted to dedicate himself to music and love. And Astarion does love him—doesn’t he?
Astarion is the most powerful vampire who ever lived, poised to rule the city from the shadows with a beautiful, obedient consort by his side who is happy to fulfill his every wish.
Until an old threat reappears, and Tav finds himself a pawn in a larger game. Astarion would never allow anyone to steal his most precious treasure—but when it boils down to a choice between power and saving Tav, could a Vampire Lord truly relinquish power?

Summary
You managed to convince Astarion not to go through with the Rite of Profane Ascension. He remains a vampire spawn, and you now offer your blood from time to time to help with his sanguine hunger until a solution is found.
Even though you had both decided to stay as friends back at Moonrise Towers, lines begin to blur once more as other cravings come to the surface… and things with Astarion are seldom uncomplicated.
_____________
Impatience gripped your nerves ferociously. "These things take time, Astarion."
"Oh, my darling… I have all the time in the world, but you only have a limited supply of blood," he whispered softly and you could almost taste his taunting words.

Summary
Astarion has ascended, and she has stayed with him. Life in the Crimson Palace isn’t as idyllic as it seems. Is there a chance for their relationship to go back to how it was? Or is it too late for the Ascendant and his consort?
This series is about Ban, my Tav, and the Vampire Ascendant. Will be angst and smut, with sprinkles of fluff.
This fic is a softer take on Ascendant!Astarion and of the changes he undergoes after the rite. Can Ban handle the change, and if a chance came, would she choose to run? And can the Ascendant win her back in time? Inspired by the concept of vampire wives and that IGN interview with Larian that discussed the ascension.

Summary
It really was not on purpose.
Astarion truly was only on the hunt for some blood. Some animal that would satisfy his hunger for the night. And he found one. Of course he did. These forests were full of creatures he could catch and drain of their blood. Some were tastier than others, but definitely better than some putrid rat.
So, when Astarion heard wailing and heaving and cursing echoing through the forest, he didn’t assume it was anyone he recently met. And someone or something must be having a terrible night.
