    Summary

    "Did you want me to do something untoward?" Phainon asks with an innocent smile.

    "Here?" Mydei asks. "Are you serious?"

    Phainon walks them both to the far side of the balcony, where they're unlikely to be seen right away by someone just coming out. "Here, maybe?" he suggests, the same as one might suggest a spot for a wall hanging or a vase. "It's not like we're all that loud, right? Just keep an eye out."

    Summary

    “Why do they throw flowers?”

    “They’re well-wishes,” Phainon answers. “Crocuses are for new beginnings, cyclamen are for love, colchicum for fidelity. They’re blessing the marriage.”

    Mydei’s hand shifts a little lower, warm fingers circling Phainon’s wrist. “Your traditions are terribly sentimental.”

    “Romantic,” Phainon corrects. “Just call them romantic.”

    To save his people, Mydei strikes a deal. Aid in exchange for two things: the coreflame of Strife and his hand in marriage.

    Summary

    “I want you to make me cry.”

    Mydei’s hand actually slips out of Phainon’s. He nearly tumbles forward onto the gravel of the dueling grounds. “Excuse me?”

    Phainon wins their duel. As his reward, he asks Mydei to make him cry. During sex.

    Summary

    “Then pray tell, how will any mating bite I leave on you be convincing enough for whatever you're planning?”

    Phainon said, failing to hide the bitterness in his words. Mydei looked unsure now, his previous bravado all but gone.

    “I was going to ask you to bite me every time the mark faded,” He said, so softly that if they hadn't been so close he would have missed it.

    A tragicomedy starring two men who don't know how to communicate.

    Summary

    Being so attuned to Phainon’s scent only made the unwise decision to visit his living space worse. He could smell Phainon everywhere, from his sheets to the hamper of discarded clothes. He held his breath to no avail, the scent already muddling his yearning heart. The flash of white in the periphery of his vision caught his eye, his carefully held breath betraying him with one inhale, his shaking pupils looking at the white coat draped over the chair, his hands moving before he could formulate a thought.

    After Phainon leaves for a mission that takes longer than it should, Mydei realizes his feelings run deeper than he thought.
