Summary
For an openly practicing necromancer, Professor Volkarin was a man whose existence seemed devoted to making you forget what blood magic he used on corpses.
Isolde trailed him silently, watching him with as much attention as she gave to scanning the woods for dangers. When Rook had ordered Isolde onto this mission, Isolde hadn’t needed their purposeful, pointed look to know that her assignment wasn’t simply to guide and guard Professor Volkarin through the Arlathan wilderness. The malfunctioning artifact summoning demons too close to Strife’s camp, less than a week after Professor Volkarin had joined their party, was as much an opportunity as it was an obligation. Rook was shrewd; they always had more than one reason for doing anything they did.
Watch him.
A dangerous man, witnessed only by a lowly guard, might well give himself away.
---
A Veil Jumper guard, scarred by a hard life, develops an unexpected relationship with Emmrich during the events of Veilguard. Features mutual pining, slow burn, and a whole lot of touch starvation.

Draco Malfoy and the perplexing predicaments of parenting by topazZz1105

Summary
Locating the best witch in the world? Check.
Convincing said witch that he was also her best option? Check.
Getting married and making a baby under a totally reasonable and not-at-all morally questionable Ministry law that definitely didn’t violate any human rights? Big check.
Raising said child (children?) with his brilliant wife in a household where sarcasm is the dominant love language and where the days are filled with nappies, toys scattered around, endless school-related quarrels, teenage mood swings, and Merlin knows what else? Ch... check…?
Draco is learning, daily and painfully, that no amount of Slytherin cunning prepares you for parenthood.
***
A fast-paced kid fic that follows Draco and Hermione’s journey from “Barely sixty percent match” to full-blown parenthood, this time from his perspective, following their children’s lives from birth to… much later.
***
This is Part 2 of their story and it's from Draco's POV. There are a lot of spoilers for BSPM right from the first chapter, so if you've stumbled upon here by accident, and not after Part 1, this is your chance to jump over there and see if you’d even enjoy this marriage law and pregnancy-heavy story! 😊

Summary
When the Ministry of Magic came up with a rather brilliant solution to the population crisis - pairing up young unmarried witches and wizards with the purpose of procreation, Hermione could hardly believe it.
She certainly didn’t imagine that the first marriage proposal she’d receive would come from none other than Draco Malfoy.
What she’d never in a million years have dreamt was... that she’d actually accept it.***
A marriage law story with the main focus on pregnancy and the development of their relationship through the unusual start of their life together and the baby on the way. High on domesticity, fluff and smut, low on angst and miscommunication - just enough to spice things up.
***
This is Part 1 of their story and it's from Hermione's POV.

Summary
Tav pulls Astarion's face into the crook of his neck and there, the vampire inhales faster than he can get the breaths in. The smell; blood below the skin and sweat sat on top of it. His tongue is out before he realizes, lapping over the area, dragging up any taste he can get.
Tav’s other hand presses into the small of his back, arching Astarion into him, making him whine at the feeling of the cock shifting inside him, until Astarion’s chest is flush against Tav’s.
“Feed.”
When the Shadow-Cursed lands lack suitable prey, Astarion distracts himself from the hunger with sex until he can’t anymore.

Summary
"Astarion!" She's white with horror, frozen. Siobhan makes no attempt to hide her near nakedness. He's already seen too much.
As he gets closer, he can see countless faint white lines crisscrossing beneath the fresh cuts, decades of self-mutilation. This is not the first time she's done this.
"You mustn't tell the others," she begs, tears flowing freely down her face. "Please, they wouldn't understand."
Astarion doesn't know how to respond, struck dumb by what he's caught her doing and her request. Siobhan's eyes search his face frantically, trying to divine what he's thinking and what he'll do next. With a start, he realizes they're playing out the inverse of the night he'd tried to drink from her. Now, he's the one being asked to protect a horrible secret.
But he can hardly focus on what to do next, all thoughts deafened by the sound of her throbbing heartbeat pounding in his ears and the pungent smell of her blood flooding his nostrils.
- - - -
Bloodletting is a remedy that is hardly possible to estimate too highly. Or that's what they say. Siobhan has enough darkness in her past that maybe a little bloodletting is called for. Unbeknownst to her, Astarion is more than happy to oblige.

Summary
“I love Tavitha,” Gale went on. “More than anything. And I know she loves me.” A pause. “But I also know… she doesn’t sound the way she did with you.”
Astarion blinked. Then, a smirk, crooked and knowing. “Ah. I see.”
“You pleased her. In ways I haven’t. And I want to learn. I’m a scholar,” Gale said. “I’ve spent my life in pursuit of knowledge. Why should this be any different?”
“You want me to teach you how to fuck your girlfriend,” Astarion said flatly.
“To please her,” Gale corrected. “To understand her. If that means watching you two… then yes. Teach me.”

Summary
Tavlor has lightning in her blood—Astarion would know, he tasted it when he drank from her. The only problem is she can’t seem to control it, or even use it at all, unless her life is in mortal peril. While the others see her as a liability, Astarion sees an opportunity to secure protection, a steady food supply, and a chance to reclaim the power that was taken for him. But when his interference has deadly consequences, he learns that he isn’t the only one concealing dark secrets. With his freedom on the line, Astarion will do almost anything to keep Tavlor under his influence, except of course, fall in love with her for real.
OR
“Oh, no, darling,” he whispers, lowering his lips to her neck. He doesn’t bite down just yet, just teasing nips and gentle strokes of his tongue, just enough to make her shiver, to make her hips seek him out, desperate for more. “I’ll tell you when to touch me. There’s no need to strain your pretty little head over the details. All you have to do is obey.”
