    Summary

    Prince Laurent of Vere is supposed to be dead. He was supposed to be betrayal, brutalized, and murdered by men hired by his own family. But instead, he is pressed against a broad, warm chest and promised that he’ll have an army to reclaim his crown if he journeys to Akielos and wins a competition there called ‘The Kallisti’.

    Crown Prince Damianos of Akielos is on a mission to prove his honor and courage through a contest. When he rescues someone claiming to be the Prince of Vere from being drugged and murdered, he finds his key to victory. Now all he has to do is bring everyone back to Ios without getting killed…

    Based on the French fairytale ‘Peau d’Ane’ and a classic Greek myth.

    Summary

    *8/23: On a brief hiatus while I reread the books again and make some very big political decisions that will affect the entire story*

    They were never meant to grow up.

     

    Laurent is fifteen, and alone. Auguste is dead, and in the encroaching red tide of the Regent’s hostile court, he has resigned himself to defeat and incurred a reputation as reckless, troubled, unfit to rule.

    When all seems hopeless, an unexpected ally intervenes in a moment of crisis, and Laurent finds renewed determination to avenge his brother’s death and reclaim his throne. What he doesn’t expect to find is a taste of normal adolescence and a chance to be known, and loved.

    But the Regent’s cruelty is a poison, and Laurent is not its only survivor. When a clever, sharp-tongued orphan arrives in the palace as a contender for the Regent’s newest pet, Laurent must face a terrible choice, and confront the reality of the other wretched creatures his uncle leaves in his wake.

    ---
    This is a canon-adjacent prequel to Captive Prince.

    Summary

    ‘Two monsters at my door,’ the voice said with a reluctant hint of amusement. ‘I’ll pass.’

    ‘I am no monster,’ Damen said, laughing in surprise, and then: ‘You are not a vengeful ghost, are you?’

    ‘I—’ the face reappeared at the window, leaning down a little so as to take a better look, and allowing Damen to see that it was a boy, or perhaps a young man speaking. ‘I am not a ghost.’

    ‘No promises on the vengefulness, I see,’ Damen said, and was surprised to see the boy smile.

    ‘I’ll help you,’ he said, ‘and you will return at this same hour tomorrow, and grant me a favour.’

    Two princes died at Marlas.

    At least, that's how the story goes.

    Summary

    “Do you remember when you kissed me on the battlements, Damen? I’m sure you could hear the beating of my heart then. I didn’t know what to do, I was so scared. Not of you. I knew you wouldn’t hurt me. I was scared of my reaction to it. I wanted to pull you closer, I wanted to wrap my arms around you and never let you leave.”

    What if Kastor's knife cut a little deeper? What if Damen was lying in his bed, pale and weak from the blood loss?
    Laurent watches over Damen's sleep and tells him all the things he didn't have the time to say earlier.

    Summary

    tell me about the dream where we pull the bodies out of the lake
    and dress them in warm clothes again
     

    Laurent de Vere has developed a routine: work five days a week, sleep in Jord's spare room, and return to his Uncle's one-bedroom apartment for the weekend. He doesn't expect change to run into him on the street—in the form of an FBI agent masquerading as a local cop, who just so happens to be investigating the case that Laurent has been living in for a decade. Damen becomes an unexpected ally and friend, and when Laurent's world is thrown into unexpected and irreversible turmoil, he has to decide whether or not he's willing to sacrifice what's most important to him in order to keep Damen by his side.
