    Summary

    Dancing on the stage was a white-haired man decked in a open-collared suit. Body swayed like water, golden sunburst marred the column of his throat, captivating with a hint of sensuality. Muscles flexed and stretched his clothes every intense move, half-undone tie and colored lights gave him the mystery of sin incarnate.

    And his scent – bloodline’s mercy, it fully revealed itself to Mydeimos the moment he found its owner, which turned out to be the most tantalizing he had ever smelled. Morning warmth and ripe barley got enriched by the sweet-sourness of summer drink, promising ecstasy in just one drop.

    Mydeimos was unable to rip his eyes from that temptation given form. Wanted that man, needed him.

    Summary

    When Phainon finally moved to Castrum Kremnos—the city he’d daydreamed about since childhood—he expected many things: difficult dialects, lovely cuisine, and locals built like war gods. He did not expect to flirt with a man he assumed was a priest.

    “So… I read Nikador’s scriptures once. Very inspiring. Huge fan.”

    Finger guns.

    Pew pew.

    A silence worthy of a sacred text.

    Unfortunately, that “priest” happened to be the Crown Prince.

    Even more unfortunately, the Crown Prince thought he was cute.

    Summary

    "Do you still remember?"

    “Maybe it’s better,” the angel says, forlorn, “if you don’t remember.”
    “Remember what?”
    “For what follows, I’m sorry. But Kephale always remembers, and I promise not to forget this.”
    Phainon frowns. Kephale? That name tickles something, but he doesn’t know what. It feels weird, like that pudding that got him sick last month.
    “Forget what?”
    “Remember them; the ones that won’t reach the dawn.”

    |
    Visions burn behind his eyelids ever since, and the fire roars forever more in the canvas of a picture. Mydei used to quench the fire, for a while, but he never understood what art truly means for Phainon. So why, fifteen years later, does Phainon find Mydei stand there, staring up at a painting of burning gold?

    Summary

    For a moment, all Mydei does is stare. He wants to see Phainon drop that veneer of professionalism. He wants to see what Phainon's real laugh looks like. He wants to see Phainon, truly see him without all the shine and glamour obscuring his vision.

    Slowly, deliberately, so that his intentions can't possibly be misread, Mydei says, "If you have nowhere else to be, you could come over to my place."

    Or, Phainon is the Flame-Chase's top-rated host, five consecutive years and counting, and Mydei can't seem to keep his eyes off him.

    Summary

    Cipher finds a traumatized white-haired boy in a destroyed village, so she takes him with her on her travels, avoiding Okhema like she's done for the past centuries.

    And then she finds another kid, blond this time, with the same golden blood but no injuries, and thinks “what the hell, sure” and takes him with her too.

    Cipher isn't the best babysitter around, but she does know when someone needs to run away from the world for a while.
