"Humour me."

"But what about you? Don't you need luck too?" Lyric asked, protest forming a small crack in her voice.

"I don't know what you'll face before the end," Cullen insisted, his face drawing nearer hers until their foreheads were touching. Her hand was palm-up in his, then, the dark leather of his glove and the moonlight's ivory flush making her fingers look impossibly pale. He placed the lucky coin there, closing her fist around it. "Just humour me."

----

Slow burn romance between Cullen and my femme Lavellan, Lyric. The story is mostly made up of moments between characters, skipping some of the action we are familiar with. Spans the events of Dragon Age: Inquisition, base game only. 

- 18+ only - 

Disclaimers: 
- Content/trigger warnings for minor character injury, blood/gore, and sexual content. 
- This is a a slow burn, but it is a romance nonetheless. *Not* smut; there are also character pieces for my Inquisitor and some others that are not related to the romance, but it's all part of Lyric's story. 
- There are time jumps, and some slight canon divergence/original elements, but nothing that impacts the integrity of the story in a major way. 
- I have only played Inquisition and all associated expansions, but not the earlier games. 
- This is my interpretation of the story- I take some liberties with minor variations and some situations of my own. 
- My lore is not perfect, but I'm trying! Feel free to gently correct me if I get something wrong! 
- All art (including the cover) is my original art! 
- If you know me, no you don't.

The Commander's Wolf by NightWolves56
11 parts Complete Mature
What happens when a wolf-shifter somehow ends up in the world of the Dragon Age series, and falls head over heels for the devilishly handsome ex-Templar turned Military commander of the Inquisition? Trouble. Tala is a wolf-shifter, also sometimes called a werewolf, but most of the time she's your average tom-boy twenty-three year old woman who enjoys what most tom-boys do. She can deck a man full on in the face sending him running, she can outdrink most of the males in the pack, and she ain't afraid to get a little dirty when it comes to working hard on her grandfather's farm. But when fate throws a loop her way by sending her into the world of Thedas, her status of being an unmated she-wolf is called into question as she involuntarily starts falling head over heels for a man who should be her worst enemy. Cullen Stanton Rutherford is the commander of the Inquisition's forces, military advisor to the Herald turned Inquisitor, and a former Templar. So when Tala comes into Thedas via Rift, the last thing he expected to hear about was her being a wolf-shifter. Naturally being a former Templar, his training demands he slay her before she becomes a threat, but something else within him just won't allow him to harm her. But when Tala's death comes after the destruction of Haven, it is only by the intervention of the Maker that Tala returns to the living, but it comes with a price. Tala loses her wolf form and becomes an everyday normal human. Now struggling with being a pure human, Tala must come to terms with needing to rely on her new friends for help and finds that sometimes being an average human can lead to some pretty amazing experiences.

"Let them go, Dante." I whip my head to see a small boy standing the clearing with blonde hair and a green cloak hanging from shoulders. He isn't very tall however he holds his stance well. He doesn't seem to be more than Cassandra's age. Maybe 12 at most. I abruptly turn my head back hearing the man holding a sword to my throat chuckling with a sinister grin. "Oh, poor boy, what are you go to do about it?" The yellow teeth gleam as he begins stalking towards the boy who does not look the least bit fazed. I look around at the other men who are following the leader. I pull Cassandra tighter to my back as I take small steps back. I keep my eye trained on the men but also fear for the naive boy. "Do you really want to test me Dante?" He asks raising a single eyebrow. For a minute the men stop their movements. I see their hesitation for fear... Fear of what? I take the moment to stick Cassandra behind a nearby tree. She crouches down while I pull my sword out from its place. "How do you know my name?" The scoundrel raises his sword challenging towards the boy before taking a final step towards him. Then the unexpected happens. The young boy chuckles so darkly. It sounded almost... demonic. All the men instinctively raise their swords. "Oh Dante, I didn't know your name... but you know someone dear to me." "Spit it out boy!" The once grinning man is now looking around frantically. I continue my eyes scanning the small boy. He looks directly me and gives me a small nod before saying one word that caused all hell to breaks loose. "Artemis." Artemis is not an ordinary girl. She grew up in the wilderness after being shunned due to unique abilities and her different physical attributes. Blessed with an ability that scared others, she roams the wild with only her guarded one. That is until she stumbles into a situation that brings her in front of a prince.

33 parts Complete Mature

When Cat suddenly lands in Thedas from present day England, she is rescued by the powerful Commander Cullen Rutherford and taken to Skyhold to serve the Inquisition. She longs for the hottest man in Thedas to notice her, but unless he is commanding her to go on a mission he goes out of his way to ignore her. Cullen Rutherford has a dark secret that his desire for Cat is threatening to expose. As a dragon shapeshifter he must find his one true mate, but Cat is always searching for a way to go home. His passion for her drives him to distraction: his dragon wants Cat, but if he beds her they will be bound for eternity. There is no going back. Dragon Age fans: this fanfic is inspired by the gorgeous Cullen Rutherford's tongue-tied conversations and reluctance to sleep with the Inquisitor. Why does he take so long to ravish her? People - we have a reason! For those who've never played Dragon Age Inquisition: Cullen Rutherford is the sexiest hero in the known universe and there are hoards of females longing to have their way with him on the Skyhold War Table. Try a google search to find out why. You're welcome. PS - this story is a slow burn but once dragon Cullen takes charge it becomes smoking hot - you have been warned! Inspired by all the gorgeousness that is Cullen Rutherford this is my attempt at giving a Dragon Age shapeshifter romance fanfic a go!
