Summary
“No matter how much I wish my fucking handwriting were marked on your skin. I’m not the one.”
Four words, and Henry heard the dull impact before he even understood the blow. Like missing a step on the stairs, like a door slamming shut right in front of him.
Alex’s eyes didn’t meet his immediately. They darted away, restless, like a trapped bird in a house full of closed windows.
But that “no” was there, etched into every line of his face, twisting something in Henry’s stomach.
“You said it yourself… you said it doesn’t matter. That no one really knows where these marks come from or what they mean, right? I… I don’t give a damn if it never appears, Alex. I love you. Isn’t that enough?”
For a fraction of a second — so brief it would’ve gone unnoticed if Henry weren’t watching so closely, if he weren’t literally holding Alex’s arms — Alex hesitated. It passed so quickly it wouldn’t leave a mark, except Henry saw it. Felt it.
“But what happens in a year? Or two? When you wake up and realize you want something else? That you want the whole package?”
---
In a future where soulmates are real, Alex and Henry are polar opposites. Until fate happens.

Henry Fox takes his nieces to a concert of their favorite band, Austin Heat. He gets a bit more than he bargained for when he meets singer and guitarist Alex Claremont-Diaz.

Summary
“Oh, sweetheart,” Henry breathes, sitting beside him in the lounge chair, quickly grasping Alex’s hand in his own.
Immediately, Alex knows what Henry is going to say. “No, I know,” he says quickly.
Henry shakes his head at him. “No, I don't think you do,” he says in a hoarse voice. Alex looks closely at his husband and observes the dark circles under his eyes. It doesn’t look like he slept at all, and a pit forms in his stomach at the thought.
“And even if you do,” Henry continues. “I need to say it. We are going to fight this,” he says firmly. “And we are going to go wherever we have to go, see whoever we have to see, and we are going to win. Because I'm not going to let anything happen to you.”
Five years after moving to Austin, Henry and Alex are new parents to a beautiful baby boy, the light of their life. Alex is a stay-at-home Dad, while Henry is President of the Okonjo Foundation, breaking barriers to open a new shelter in Austin. Being new parents while balancing their career shifts is challenging enough. But when Alex receives a devastating diagnosis, will it bring them closer together, or drive them further apart?

Summary
“Five?” he repeats, shaking his head. “That’s the current figure, is it? I believe the more accurate number is seven. Seven fiancés, if we’re being precise. Each one significant in ways I scarcely could have foreseen. Even the ones who never made it to the altar.”
or;
How Alex and Henry keep finding their way back to each other: through duty, distance, and all seven of Henry’s engagements.-
