Summary
After the fall of the Absolute, Gale and Tavrin Dekarios try to adjust to a new life of normalcy in Waterdeep. However, rumors of Tav's heritage as a Bhaalspawn set a mysterious and powerful force after her blood for unknown ends, and it wants her alive. Gale is determined to protect her, but with so many potential enemies from both the recent past and that which she has forgotten, this proves a monumental task.
When her past comes back to haunt her, that's just the beginning of their troubles...Because the threat of relapse is nipping at Tav's heels. And there's one body they never had the chance to destroy.
Enver Gortash.
-------
The Dark Urge is named Tavrin, a Drow Rogue.
Lots of Forgotten Realms lore incorporated, but altered as needed to fill gaps, work around inconsistencies, or make for better storytelling.Durgetash is a past relationship, so those scenes are flashbacks starting in chapter 9.

Summary
As Enver Gortash returns home after a long gruelling day of enduring his passionate romance with one of his conquests, instead of finding respite he has his patience tested by his closest ally.
A companion piece to Indecent deceit. Takes place sometime during its events.
Then they paused, an unassuming letter caught between their fingers. Gortash felt the first throb of an oncoming headache.
“You’ve got another note from one of your admirers?” Their smile, bright with far too sharp teeth, was anything but innocent. “What’s this? Another paean to your ‘strong, burly arms’? Or perhaps the ‘ample, round buttocks’?”
Their gaze followed the scarce lines of text that Gortash knew covered the sheet of paper.
“Aww. And this one’s a poem,” the Dark Urge exclaimed, clearly delighted at the prospect of Gortash’s discomfort. Then, only one way remained — to not give them what they wanted.Series

Summary
All Tav wanted was a quiet research position and a chance to finish her thesis. What she got was Dr. Gale Dekarios: brilliant, composed, far too attractive for her sanity, and somehow the oblivious star of her deeply private fantasies.
And when a certain private notebook ends up in his hands, the boundary between fiction and reality begins to blur in ways neither of them are ready for.
It was just a little fantasy. A harmless indulgence.
Until he read it.
--
A story where Gale’s curiosity unleashes more than either of them could ever have imagined. Set in a slightly alternate modern world where magic is part of history and academic departments still chase relics of it.

Summary
Magic was his life, all she remembers is blood. He lost his future, she lost her past.
Though Gale seems like the least dangerous member of their party, Tav suspects he's hiding something. Though Tav seems like the most lethal, Gale notices there's something off about her behaviors.
Keeping their inner demons at bay marks the fine line between keeping allies in their search for a cure to ceremorphosis, or being cast aside as liabilities. But perhaps if the latter comes to pass, they can lean on each other...If they can get past their grievous differences.
