    Summary

    Damen's already unpleasant visit to Arles takes a sour turn when he and Laurent get into an argument.

    You’re unfair!” Laurent chokes out, wrapping his hands around Damen’s wrist, much like he did last night. “So what, just because I was –admittedly– a little cruel last night you decided to abandon me before the sun even rises? Do you want me to grovel at your feet? Beg for forgiveness?”

    “I want no such thing,” Damen answers patiently. “You said yourself before we arrived here that our stay was going to last six months at most. We’re almost halfway done. Without me here to distract you, the time will fly and before you know it, we will reunite in our new palace.”

    Laurent’s lower lip wobbles. “You’re willing to stay away from me for that long, then?”

    Damen doesn’t hesitate to answer honestly. “If it will make you stop resenting me, yes.”

    Resent you?! I don’t–”

    “You compared me to your uncle, Laurent.”

    Summary

    In an effort to get out from under the thumb of his step-father, Charles chooses to become a courtesan for several minor nobles in King Erik's court. It is not long before he attracts the eye of the young king, and the Cardinal who holds the young king's ear. Charles spends months working to secure his place as King Erik's favorite and to regain his father's title of Merchant Prince. Charles hopes to disprove the old adage that once you enter the king's bed, you have nowhere to go but down.

    A historical AU with alpha/omega dynamics (no heat). Not nearly as dark as the warnings might make it sound.

    Two years have passed since the bells had rung. The kingdoms are united, and Damen and Laurent are prospering as the kings of Akielos and Vere. Everything is perfect.

    Until an accident occurs, and Laurent wakes up in bed next to who he knows as Damianos, prince-killer.

    Summary

    Sometimes, on his early shifts when he starts at six a.m and the guy comes in at six thirty, like a whirlwind with a dirt streaked face or a bloody lip or a black eye, but ordering his coffee like he doesn’t look like he just got into a car crash, Ian thinks he hallucinates him. This little guy can’t actually exist out there in the world, right? He’s not actually part of society, is he? Surely, this angry asshole only exists in Ian’s diseased mind?

     

    Or in which everything is about the same, except that Ian Gallagher and Mickey Milkovich meet each other a little later in life - a little more mature, a little more stable - and manage to make a million mistakes anyway.

    Summary

    What if Porsche, upon remembering the kiss on the pier, went to Kinn and said that he remembered? What if there was no diamond auction? What if they'd had a different start?

    Would it make them any softer?

    (No.)
