Summary
Gale is a psychology professor who has built a career around understanding the mind while quietly enduring a marriage that has narrowed his life to obligation and careful silence. Still married and caught in an emotionally abusive relationship, he moves through his days on principle alone, convinced that leaving would make him selfish, weak, or worse. Not only that, but Mystra owns him; he knows that leaving means his career and reputation.
One evening, he escapes to the pub with friends and ends up in an unguarded conversation with the bartender. Sameera is observant and easy to talk to, with a curiosity that runs deeper than small talk. What passes between them is ordinary enough to feel harmless at first.
As they continue to cross paths, that ease becomes harder to ignore. So does the fear of repeating the past.

Summary
The nautiloid ship abducting Inna was a blessing in disguise.
As a child she was taken from the streets of Baldur’s Gate and raised in a secluded convent near Candlekeep in the ways of honoring Oghma. But all her peers and elders saw when they looked at her, was a drow - born to be wicked and beyond redemption. When Inna's protector Nyssara passed away, there was nothing left to shield her from the abuse until the Illithids came and took her away - inadvertently introducing her to a gentle wizard who stole her heart.
All Inna ever wanted was to be loved for who she was.Just before entering the Shadow-cursed lands Inna has a tender moment with Gale under the stars and realises she is in love with him, but Astarion and his charms are always around the corner.
Updates on Sundays!
