    Summary

    Jue Viole Grace is a backwater country noble with no prospects and Aguero Agnis Khun is a disgraced noble with no future. Any union between the two of them is guaranteed to amount to nothing, which is exactly what their guardians are hoping for.

    But the two of them (and possibly even fate itself) might have other plans.

    Summary

    So how did it come to this? Had he miscounted? Khun was at a loss as he checked his lighthouse for the millionth time and came up with nothing but air.

    Despair nailed its way into his chest and his brain switched off as if it had suffered a power cut. 
     
    He was screwed.

    Summary

    The stranger must’ve known he was found, too, because two dark blue eyes open, peering back at him from the shadows.  It shifts, and a gust of icy wind blows past them, covering the body in a light dusting of frost.

    Mine, the eyes claim.

    So this was the heartbeat Bam had been tracking.  But he’s not in the mood to get into a fight with another one of his kind, even if some of them were territorial.  Just to check, he lightly pokes the stiff body with a smoky tendril.

    There’s a threatening hiss.  The temperature drops further.

    Bam shuffles back slowly and melts back into the shadows.  He can feel those piercing blue eyes on him, watching until he’s out of sight.

    I’ll have to hunt for a different meal.

    And in the morning, when the townspeople find two mangled bodies on opposite sides of the town, there are no culprits to blame.

    Summary

    (title from "saint bernard" by lincoln)

    When his augments start malfunctioning after a difficult fight, FUG's slayer candidate Jue Viole Grace is sent to seek help from Khun Aguero Agnis, a disgraced son of the Khun family consigned to a small, nowhere port on the edge of a galaxy. Viole finds himself coming back again and again under the guise of business, but his growing fondness doesn't go unnoticed by all the wrong people. In this world, showing care is a weakness. One that the wrong people will gladly take advantage of.

    Summary

    “Maybe you should have let him die,” Jinsung suggests with a weak shrug. “I’ve heard Khun funeral parties are quite the thing.”
    Was that a joke or a wisp of pity for the Khun prince? As the gravity of the situation suddenly strikes him, Viole realizes there’s another person who deserves even more pity.
    Him.
    Because until the last peace contract is signed, he’ll be responsible for keeping the poor prince alive.

    [Alternatively, Prince Aguero has an assassin problem, Viole wonders what would happen if he weren't so damn good at his job, and nobody -- not even a couple of lovestruck turtles -- can tame the fierce Rak Wraithraiser.]
