    Summary

    “Is this how you imagined your freedom? Spending your nights watching over your pet Bhaalspawn?”

    For most of Astarion’s undead existence, he didn’t imagine his freedom at all. But if someone had told him there would be love on the other side of his pain — a fierce, devastating sort of love that would change him and be changed in turn? He would have done terrible things to get it.

    And now she’s his. A beast like him. Someone who will become the worst sort of monster for his sake.

    He wants all of her. Even the parts that scare her.

    //

    Vidri fails a crucial wisdom roll and makes an unimaginable sacrifice to save Astarion’s life. The consequences of her decision haunt her on every full moon.

    Astarion is not afraid. Not of her, not of her darkness, and not of their future. He trusts her not to hurt him. She needs to learn to trust herself.
