Summary
“You turn it on so suddenly that I.. I forget myself. You’re just very charming, aren’t you?”
Alex doesn’t miss a beat. Henry’s shaky breath on him feels like victory. “Maybe I want to charm you. Is that so bad?”
“Alex,” Henry says, gentle in his sternness. Like he’s not convinced of it either.
“Is it? Don’t you think you deserve it?”
---
In which Alex meets Henry Fox-Mountchristen; thirty-eight, billionaire owner of FM Media and Percy Okonjo's best man days before the wedding he is then invited to attend. The rest is history.

We Just Want Them To Be Happy (Matchmaker) by Svgco

Summary
It was Nora’s idea.
Earlier that week, some of her coworkers were talking about this new dating app, Matchmaker, and after doing some research, she convinced June it was the perfect solution.
“You know how back in the day, families would play matchmaker, ‘oh your son is single, so is my daughter’, and they would set them up?” June looks at Nora, skeptical of where she is going with this conversation.
“I want to list Alex on this new dating app where we get to control everything. We create the profile, we select the pictures, we swipe left or right. We decide who would be a good match for him.” Nora explains it like what she’s suggesting is no big deal.
“Are you nuts!?” June exclaims. “That’s completely insane.”
Or… June and Nora list Alex on a dating app, Bea and Pez list Henry, and the foursome decide they would be perfect together. But there are a few problems. First, they never told Alex and Henry about the app, and neither is going to agree to it. Second, Alex is straight.

Summary
“Hey, H.”
The nickname is a relic of someone years in the past, a boy Alex probably doesn’t know anymore. Still, it drips off his tongue moved by instinct.
Maybe the syllables should taste bitter on their way out. Maybe the pet-name soaked in nights spent cocooned between the rustle of tree branches and wrap of sleeping bags, in utter familiarity and knowingness, should remind Alex of everything Henry has stopped being to him.
It doesn’t.

Summary
“Gran sat me down the day I finished my A levels and made it abundantly clear I was not to let anyone know about any deviant desires I might be beginning to harbor that might reflect poorly upon the crown, and there were appropriate channels to maintain appearances if necessary.”
Shaan approaches Henry with a deal from the Queen: agree to an arranged marriage with a woman to flaunt in public, and he can enjoy the services of a male escort in private. Alex comes storming into Henry’s life with sparkling brown eyes, a mischievous smirk, and a challenge, and Henry struggles to maintain control of his emotions as boundaries begin to blur.
Alex doesn’t actually care about him; it’s just a job. Right?
