Summary
An ice-sharp echo of pain pierces Arabella’s dreams, jolting her from sleep with a sharp, shocked gasp. She reels in the darkness, with nothing to latch onto, except - except that there’s a weight pressing down on her, a dull ache still pulses in her neck, and her cry is cut off before it fully leaves her throat.
“Hush now, hush, it’s all right, darling.” Astarion? It’s Astarion above her. Her panic gives way to confusion and she tosses her head to shake off the hand he’s clamped over her mouth. It doesn’t quite work. “Steady, that’s it. No need to wake the others, is there?” Astarion hesitates, just for a moment, and then he laughs softly and that smile comes back. The smile that makes Arabella’s bones turn into jelly.
Arabella has a crush, and Astarion takes advantage.
