    Summary

    “You can’t stop thinking about it,” she accuses. (As if she’s any better.). “Every time you see my face–”

    “I wish you’d stop talking.” Mae doesn’t know whether he’s finishing her sentence or making his own statement. He grabs her shoulders and walks her backward, and she lets him, right until she bumps into the workbench where he and Olric throw their extra forging items. Coal and miscellaneous metal pieces scatter around their feet as he sweeps them onto the ground before propping her up.

    Then he drops to his knees, and the word worship comes to her mind.

    The farmer wonders who wins in a game of living in the other's head rent free.

    Summary

    “Why can’t you like my good looks and charm instead?” He asked, bemused.

    Ari leaned into him, resting her head where it fit so well on his strong chest. “You know, it sounds like you just want me to tell you how handsome you are.” He scoffed, and she couldn’t bear to look at him. She lingered against his chest, feeling the warmth radiate from him. “The little things about you, Balor, they make you more… real. More human.”

    Balor’s expression shifted, the playfulness fading as he absorbed her words. “More human, huh?”

    “Yeah,” she continued, her voice miraculously steady. “I like who you are, even when nobody else is looking.”

    Or, what it takes to find a home.

    Summary

    Looking for change, Capitol florist Junie takes up a vaguely too-good-to-be-true offer left on the bulletin board of her local adventurer’s guild and moves to a long-neglected farm in Mistria. She finds herself immediately woven into the warm fabric of the town’s people, with one exception. The town’s handsome but sour blacksmith who wants nothing to do with her. But behind his frosty exterior, through all their barbed interactions, Junie begins to see a softer man underneath. A man that maybe, just maybe, she could love.
