I've switched gears and have started working more earnestly on the Modify Memory fic I've talked about a bit before. General concept: Ascended Astarion x Vampire Bride power couple, except, the consort is attacked with a Modify Memory spell, resetting her memories to pre-tadpole. Astarion has to re-romance his spouse, restore their strained bride/sire bond along with her memories, and get to the bottom of who was behind the attack in the first place.
For the first dawn since his ascension, Lord Astarion Ancunin wakes alone.
His trance was an ephemeral kindness. In it, Naomi was beneath him. In their bed, with her hands clawed in their sheets, ripping another set into ruin. Her lithe body arched from the mattress, melting bare into his chest. Astarion ground down against her, pinning her in place. Her place. His beautiful bride, his dark consort, his sweet siren, surrendered entirely to his touch, with his name in her mouth and his cock slotted inside her cunt.
“Fuck,” he growls, teeth bared to his pillow as his eyes flutter open.
For the first dawn since his descent from the nautiloid, Astarion hates the sunlight dappling his pale skin with every fiber of his being. He rips the sweat-streaked sheets from a bed intended for guests, swearing violence against that vile, searing star. He might’ve loved the light for as long as he could stand in it, far before he fell for Naomi. But he’d see it snuffed to cinders for stealing her away from him.
Even if it only was a memory that was taken. After all, the past three days have taught him memories are such fragile, breakable things. Such precious, irreplaceable treasures.
Astarion’s glare snags on the array of glassworks collected on the mantle. Little sculptures and trinkets meant to catch the rays streaming in from the vast east-facing window. Abruptly, he shoves from the bed, closing the short distance in quick strides. He seizes a small prism in his fist, reels it back, and sends it soaring through that pretty, perfect pane of glass.
His darling sounds so much prettier when she shatters for him. He huffs a tight, unsated sigh, eyeing the shards in disdain.
Tagging @meeshrox, @bellasmumblingsandmusings, @vixstarria, @wilteddreamsofbaldursgate, and @ladymdc if you have anything you're working on that you'd want to share. No worries if you'd rather not! 💜
