    Summary

    An unseemly, inelegant and angry boy from the mines is now, very reluctantly, the personal slave of one of the richest men in the city.

    But the new onslaught of relative comfort doesn't affect him. He'd rather be back in the mines, toiling from sun up to sun down, sleeping on the cold hard floor, and eating stale crusts of bread, than be a whore.

    Hell, he'd rather die than be a whore.

    But here he fucking is. With nowhere else to go. Trapped in a gilded cage that's more suffocating than the barren stone one he was raised in.

    All hope isn't lost, though.

    He's decided, long ago, when he was twelve, that he'd kill himself before he ends up like his mother. Before he ends up as a puppet, a whore, a doll. Death is more dignified than that.

    Summary

    Slowly, and with a disgusting amount of hesitation, he tilts his head back until he's staring at the ceiling, exposing his neck.

    It's against contract to claim him, but Grian's heard the horror stories; there are those who are simply rich enough that the fine for a broken contract is merely the price of the experience of claiming an omega.

    Grian can't hold back his full body shudder when he feels the man— the alpha— brush his fingers against his neck, then start fiddling with his collar. This is it. His miserably scarce luck has truly run out.

    When the alpha claims Grian he will be useless. He will spend the rest of his days crammed in that cage, with no buyers on his contract— because who would want an omega claimed by someone else?

    Or;

    Grian knows what it means when someone buys his contract, but evidently neither Scar nor Mumbo have put it together yet.

    chapter 8

    as all the stories of the author, the whump and hurt/comfort just sits right.

    Summary

    What if Astarion didn’t end up on the Nautiloid, but one of his siblings did instead?

    Tav and their party take down Cazador for their companion Dalyria and Astarion is among the spawn who are freed. Once liberated, Astarion decides to use his skills in seduction to get himself a job at the Sharess' Caress, where Tav finds him again after they defeat the Netherbrain. Tav's party seeks a cure for vampirism that requires all of Dalyria's siblings, so Astarion aids them in the quest between his brothel shifts.

    As finding a cure becomes complicated and dangerous, Astarion joins the party and works through his feelings about transactional sex, especially in light of his developing feelings for Tav. For once, Astarion is the one to be seduced.

    Chapter 25

    What a story! I love following my favourite NB Tav and Astarion on their quest. Both of their characters are very convincing and I enjoyed every chapter immensly.
