Set right after the battle on Crait. Rey and Ben Solo / Kylo Ren, the conflicted souls, are eager for the other to join their own side, a tale of light vs. dark. Will their story land in the grey? Slow burn Reylo, lovely smut in later chapters.

What if your worst enemy could appear before you without warning? See your location? Read your mind? The bond between Rey and the new Supreme Leader is growing and it's dangerous. They both have much to conceal from each other... and yet the Force seems to make a point of bringing them together at their most vulnerable moments. Why do this? Why expose mortal enemies to each other's weaknesses and fears? Read and find out! This is a post TLJ Star Wars romance to help tide you over until Episode IX. The story tries to stay true to the film characters with a delicious slow burn. Rey is a woman of action and Kylo/Ben is a man in love but not mushy. Also an adventure story with some action scenes and a healthy dose of speculative Resistance and First Order plot. Chapters alternate between Rey and Kylo Ren's perspective. All rated T except for one chapter. Story cover by jealouis. Complete.

After Crait, the Resistance is all but decimated. It will take time before they regain the strength and numbers to be anything more than an annoyance to the First Order. In the meanwhile, the Force bond between Rey and the new Supreme Leader not only continues but grows. They begin to be able to see one another's surroundings, touch things... and as the bond grows, so does their relationship. Mutual distrust becomes begrudging acceptance. Then a strange sort of friendship. And then... well... ;) Post TLJ Reylo fanfic; VERY Rey/Ben centric; will focus almost exclusively on times when the bond brings them together; A VERY patient slow burn that devotes a lot of time to character development. COMPLETE.
