Summary
Regulus has it all figured out. He keeps men on a rotating roster so none can get too close, works nights as a dancer to make the most of his chronic insomnia, and pushes everything he doesn’t want to remember about the past ten years into the recesses of his mind. It’s easier to pretend none of it ever happened.
But when James Potter crashes into Regulus’ life with his fancy sports car, wealth beyond measure, and devil’s smile, it marks a switch in the natural order of things. James is a client; Regulus isn’t allowed to fall in love with him. Except James is the first man in a long time who can see past Regulus’ carefully constructed façade, and who could ever resist the temptation of being known?
Or, this is a story about identity, addiction, self-expression, and love in all of the varying shapes they can take.

Summary
"I'm stuck in a time loop, reliving November 2nd. This is the 111th time I've lived through today."
Draco stilled. His moody eyes, the tension in his hands where he gripped onto his umbrella, the careful mask of blankness flickering over his face — everything about him was so difficult and so very dear to Harry.
"Ah," said Draco, "and?"

Summary
It was the beast inside him, his shame that he couldn't control that festered and grew with each injustice that passed before his eyes. She was given to him to try and appease it. But not even her love could have stopped the fall of their empire.
Originally a kinkmeme prompt! Sort of AU Solas/Lavellan where Lavellan is a slave in the days of Arlathan who is given to Fen'Harel.
(I have tagged non-con for this story as it is implied, but it will not be explicit. Also, in light of a recent shit-storm that erupted on tumblr, I would like it to be known that the implied non-con in this story does NOT involve Fen'Harel/Solas with Lavellan and I have tried to address it as respectfully as I can.)
Chapters 1- 16 are set during Arlathan
Chapters 17 to 39 are set during Inquisition
The Arlathan part of the story can be read by itself if you aren't interested in the Inquisition part.Story is 'complete' as of the end of Inquisition. However a sequel may be done when more content is released by Bioware!
