Summary
“Could I get a name for the order?” Marlene asked.
“Serious,” the man replied. “Like the star,” he clarified, and Remus mentally scratched out 'Serious' and rewrote 'Sirius' in his head.
“The… star?” Marlene asked, her pen hovering over the cup as she hesitated.
“S-I-R-I-U-S,” Remus said. He stocked croissants into the display case, not looking up. “The Dog Star,” he added, “brightest star in the sky, actually. Visible from both hemispheres.” When he looked over, the man– Sirius– seemed surprised, his eyebrows raised as Remus spoke, and when Remus finished, he blinked a few times before smiling lopsidedly.
“Er– yeah,” he breathed a laugh. “That.” There was a baby on his hip. Somehow, it had taken Remus a second glance to notice that.

Or, Remus works as a barista and Sirius comes in every morning with the world's cutest baby, and man, these two just wrote the book on mutual pining, huh?

Summary
“Today I met a boy who escaped al-Quds,” Yusuf says, and Nicolò stares back at him this time. His clean face is solemn, his pale eyes almost sad, and Yusuf wishes he could see some anger in them. Anything but this. “They killed his whole family.”
“When you say them,” Nicolò blinks, and there is a twitch in his strong jaw. “You mean me. My people.”
Yusuf feels he has been running his whole life.
He ran from his duties as the family’s heir when he refused to marry the woman chosen by his parents. Yusuf eventually made a new home in Jerusalem, and he thought he was done running. Then the Franks laid their siege and Yusuf was killed and brought back to life too many times. Before he realised, he was on the run again. Only this time, he is not alone.
Or; a road trip around the Mediterranean in which Yusuf struggles with his new life, searches for the women in his dreams and learns how to open his heart. Also, there is only one bed.

The problem is that Ronan isn’t exactly what you think of, when you think god of springtime.
(AKA, Ronan is Persephone and Adam is Hades and it goes just about as well as you'd think.)

Summary
Just as Achilles claiming to be his husband ignites a yearning in him, so Deidameia’s revelation that he is, in fact, hers almost chokes him.
She has touched what is his, and it makes Patroclus roil and want all at once.

Summary
Penelope waited until Telemachus was gone and walked to the center of the room, to the banquet table adorned with the cleanest body around (a death quicker than it deserved). The fallen form of Antinous. She pulled his head up by the hair so she could stare directly at him. It made a loud bang as it hit the wooden table again. Odysseus could understand her actions, even as she spit on his face. The following though, it made him lost. Penelope pushed herself up on the table, sitting right next to Antinous body, and opened her legs.
“Come here.”
Odysseus was nothing if not obedient to his wife.
