    Summary

    “Fine,” she said. “Do you know the statistically most common way for the authorities to take out organized crime?”
    Well, if that was her idea of enticing conversation, it was no wonder she had all those evenings free to chase after scoundrels like him. Still, Astarion didn’t want to antagonize her further and ruin the game, so he pursed his lips and guessed, “A very large, well-placed cannon?”
    “Tax fraud.”
    She looked at him as if she expected some sort of reaction – maybe a dramatic gasp? A palm flung to his forehead in a theatrical rendition of How could I not think of this?
    Everything he could muster was a blink. “Tax … fraud.”
    She nodded, obviously excited about what Astarion was sure were two of the most boring words in the English language, combined.
    "That's how we'll take down Cazador."

    Summary

    The Festival of Fools - a carnival of magic and illusions which shall set your heart ablaze and bring your dreams to life.

    Legends say that the Festival of Fools will grant one wish to those pure of heart and soul - for a price. Seeking a cure for the Curse of Stone which plagues her people, Elysia Thorne seeks the aid of the festival's enigmatic ringmaster, Astarion Ancunin, whose charm is as dangerous as it is irresistible.

    But as their fates intertwine, it becomes clear that all is not as it seems...

    "The fools will dance beneath the stars,
    In painted masks with shining scars,
    A world of light, where laughter sings,
    But hides the weight of darker things.

    The Ringmaster smiles with lips so sweet,
    Pale as moonlight, cold as sleet.
    His crimson eyes, a lure, a flame,
    And none who enter leave the same.

    His charm will lead you to the show,
    Where secrets stir and shadows grow,
    But some who play may never leave,
    For strings are pulled, and fools believe.

    A Little Star, both bright and chained,
    By hands unseen, forever stained."

    Summary

    Tav woke up in an unfamiliar bed, with a bad headache and a bed companion in the shape of an archduke. Unfortunately for Tav, her memories were quite muddled. So when the lump next to her called her "wife", she may have been more than a little bit freaked out.

    Or,

    Enver Gortash woke up to find his wife trying to kill him. Again. This was all very inconvenient.

    ~~~

    A story of love, one might say. But not these two. No, these two would say that their story was built upon death threats and late night barrelmancy negotiations, and Disintegration spells that missed and the Power Word Kill that didn't. Love was only the ambush Gortash walked into once, and Tav walked into twice.

    Summary

    “Do you come when you touch yourself?” he asked.
    “What?” Her world had either stopped spinning or rapidly accelerated; she wasn’t sure.
    “When you lie awake at night,” he purred, caressing clawed fingertips over the inside of her knee, “fucking yourself on your lovely fingers, do you climax then?”
    She nodded. Why lie? A hot pulse of need bloomed in her cunt. This afternoon had already taken several turns, and at this point, she was just along for the ride.

    A series of bad hookups has Tav feeling less like a hero and more like a born reject. She sneaks into Sorcerous Sundries to look for a cure. She finds it—in the tower's new proprietor.
