I Feel Your Heartbeat In My Soul (Our Futures Bound, Our Bodies Know) by Curasha

Summary
From the moment your soulmate comes into the world, your hearts beat in sync. You would never know the difference between your heartbeat and theirs unless an irregularity occurred in one.
When Astarion learns of this, he can’t contain his giddiness at the fact that there is someone out there perfect for him and in turn, he is someone else’s perfect. When he reaches of age – at least by human standards – he is finally taken to a Soul Matcher—someone magically gifted to trace the connection between souls.
“I don’t detect another soul.”
Astarion’s heart drops but he’s told that this happens sometimes. His soulmate may not exist yet. He should check back in another year or so.
Astarion continues to do this for 19 years, his hope dwindling more so each time.
“I feel nothing. Perhaps you should-”
At 37, Astarion leaves before the Soul Matcher can finish his words and empty reassurances. At 37, Astarion dies and so does his belief that there is someone out there for everyone. He believes this for the next 161 years.
And then he wakes up with a heartbeat that cannot be his, for he is undead and his heart stopped beating long ago.
