Summary
Ben Solo had just been going through life, not really living it.
He went to work, helped his friends with their children, tried to grow beyond his parents shadow, but at the end of the day, he would always end up back at his apartment alone. It seemed that would continue indefinitely, until one day when he was travelling home from work and a pretty girl with a strange hairstyle decided to brake the golden rule of travelling on the Coruscant Underground and started talking to him.
As promised, Ben's point of view of the events of Going Underground.

Summary
“Where am I?” The question comes out with a snarl. “Who are you?”
The other woman tilts her head slightly to the side, and there is something about her pose, something about her eyes, that-
“I think,” she says calmly, hands folded in front of her, “that I might be your mother-in-law.”
(In which Rey leaves Jakku, and does so very much against her will.)

Summary
Rey has been raised by her Grandfather after her parents supposedly abandoned her. Desperate to escape Exegol and find them, she strikes a bargain to leave by marrying the fearsome Lord Ren. After a surprisingly sudden wedding night, she finds that she's been left in the care of Ben - his squire - not realizing that they are the same man. All things seem to be going surprisingly happily, until Snoke demands that Lord Ren prove his loyalty - setting off a series of events that will reshape their world and reunite him with old friends.
"To suddenly find yourself within grasp of what you wanted so desperately, without warning? It was almost like balancing upon a razor. Sometimes it was better to leave the glistening bauble of hope alone, rather than experience the terror of being unable to grasp it when it was just within reach. Ben knew because he felt it the first time Rey had smiled for him, and when she’d told him of their child. When the dreams of his youth were suddenly coming true, despite having flung them aside.”

Summary
Rey has a problem. Despite the best of intentions, she has become entangled with a gangster. And not just any Outer Rim Hutt spawn, but Kylo Ren himself, leader of the First Order. Lord Ren orchestrates his criminal empire from his palace on Coruscant, so powerful he is all but untouchable. He shouldn’t need Rey and yet he has come to depend upon her skills. She is his secret weapon, until the day Rey decides enough is enough. But is freedom worth its price when she has already lost her heart?
“Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process (s)he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you.” – Friedrich Nietzsche
