New Tricks - Chapter 22
Status: Work In Progress
Version: 1.01
Pairing: Rugan x AFAB!OC
Rating: NC-17 (This chapter R)
Genre: Adventure/Romance
Summary:
“Who the hells are you?” The elf turned to size up the duo. “Family from out of Baldur's Gate,” Rugan supplied. “Ah, Zarys' crew. She said you were halfway competent.” “Probably the closest thing to a compliment we’ll draw out of her,” muttered Rugan.
Beware of an old man in a profession where men usually die young. Being the Southern Deliveries Manager for the Baldur's Gates Zhentarim is not an easy job. Between mentoring new recruits, juggling vicious coworkers and whip-cracking bosses, bandits are the least of Rugan's troubles. An encounter with a charming stranger on the job serves to only complicate his life all the more.
Notes:
Ok this is finally 4/4 of that original chapter, I really struggled with it even though the ending has been ready since forever ago. I avoided it by going back and editing chapters 1-4. I'm still not happy with it but it was time to let it go.
Thank you to @fistfuloftarenths who read the original scraps of this chapter back in February and is writing the Salazon fic de diversis artibus.
@dustdeepsea who's writing the amazing Rugan x Tav long fic Gods and Monsters.
@captainsigge who cracked the Bellar tag with Auribus Teneo Lupum.
