    Summary

    "If that first church had been a little spark in the fabric of Clorinde’s faith, then the Opera Epiclese is a bonfire roaring its prayers to the open sky. Lady Furina’s most ardent followers congregate in the lobby, clutching newspapers and playbills as their hymn-books, giving everything they have to the spectacle of the court and stage. And their Archon soaks up the spotlight, growing bigger and brighter with every shouted word of praise. Clorinde does not shout, but she feels it rattle through her, as world-breaking as a kiss, and she thinks of the audience as the waves of an ocean buying Lady Furina towards the sun.

    And then Clorinde is twenty, and Clorinde is undefeated, and Clorinde is face-to-face with her Archon for the first time in her life."

    In which Clorinde has a crisis of faith.

    Summary

    There was no comfort to be found in this fear, except perhaps the knowledge he could still feel it. It was a cold fear, freezing him in place as he attempted to fight his rogue hand, only to be overpowered for it to wrap around his neck and squeeze tightly. He wheezed around it, struggling to pull it off as he tried to force his other hand to move only for it to be wrested by his side, pinned behind his back.

    It feels like an eternity he’s trapped powerlessly within his own body. His hand around his throat constricts more until his struggling calms, his eyes rolling into the back of his head. Only then does the hand release him. Phainon inhales on a wheeze, coughing and gasping for breath, even though there is none.

    Irontomb takes control of Phainon's body. Phainon refuses to go down without a fight.

    Summary

    Phainon thought he was the Handler. Turns out he’s the handlee.
    One cocky dog, one hot eldritch man, too many tentacles, and a breeding kink spiral later—and now he’s crying, creamed, and cuddled.
    …Also, he gave the ancient horror his number. Not so bad, right?
