AN: This is a short story (AU) about Fenris and fem!Hawke from Dragon Age 2. I woke up in the middle of the night after dreaming this story - had to get up and write it out. I've recently re-written it and decided to put it up here on DeviantArt, while I work on Chapter 10 of WIWUYS.

Just a note on my style: They don't really know each other at first. It's just "he" and "she". As the relationship evolves and their assumptions about each other fall away, they each learn who the other really is. Then the names have meaning. That's when I use them.

Thanks so much for taking the time to read my work! Bioware owns all characters. Just the story idea is mine.
