Summary
When King Auguste of Vere asks his brother Laurent to go to Ios for their most sacred festival of the year Laurent and some of his men decide to go as a favor to Auguste and to foster goodwill with their new Akielon allies.
Only recently having opened up trade and communications with Akielos, Laurent has no idea how the Akielons celebrate their annual Fire Festival. His hosts are notoriously tight-lipped about what the festival entails but Laurent is determined to enjoy himself and become immersed in all the local traditions. Luckily there is a handsome stranger in the crowd who is more than happy to give him an intimate guide to the festival.

Summary
Laurent is a ragdoll, pulled down into the dark at improbable speed. The lift it makes in his stomach is odd, like the giddy drop on a rollercoaster. A moment of elation, perhaps, before he dies.
He breaks the surface.
His gasping mouth now pulls in air, his feet firmly on the rock bottom of the spring and legs holding him up unshakably. Water streams from his head, down his body, as though a bucket had been dumped over his head. He reaches up to push his sopping hair from his eyes.
“Naiad,” a voice says.
Laurent stills. Psychological collapse should be allowed, by the universe, to be a solitary affair, especially when it happens in a state of complete undress. It’s unfair on a cosmic level that Laurent should be happened upon by a stranger in his current condition.
---
On holiday with his brother in Ios, Laurent bathes in a hot spring. Unfortunately, he drowns. Even more unfortunately, when he surfaces somehow, he finds himself thrust back in time. Dropped into the middle of a mythologised ancient war for the Akielon throne, he is determined to get back to the modern day - even after ending up kidnapped (or perhaps rescued) by the rightful King, Damianos.

Summary
“Damianos.”
Damen looked up. Laurent’s gaze was level, and very blue.
“Broadly,” Laurent said, “is it the pain? Or the being told what to do?”
And suddenly Damen was finding it very hard to breathe. Laurent simply waited him out, his gaze fixed on Damen’s face. Damen couldn’t help remembering Nik’s description from last weekend. High alert.
“Both,” he said finally. Laurent gave a short nod, like he was filing that away. “And…”
“And what?”
Damen licked his lips. “And you, I think.”
This time the wash of pink over Laurent’s cheeks was unmistakable. Damen reveled in it, even as he fought the urge to squirm at his own confession.
“Noted,” Laurent said, very evenly.

In which Damen is ready to propose marriage at a moment's notice, Laurent plays hard to get, and Nik doesn't get paid enough.

“Guidance,” scoffed Ancel. “Prince Laurent doesn’t need guidance. He needs dick.”
Damen choked on his wine.

Summary
And then Damen was face to face with Prince Auguste, the man he had thought to defeat and maybe kill on the battlefield all those years ago.
“Well, he certainly looks capable.”
Auguste’s tone matched the look on his face. Detached, uninterested. He regarded Damen for a moment or two before stepping around him to take a look at Lou.
The gasp was unexpected.
Even more unexpected was the desperate, broken: “Laurent?”
--
For seven years, Lou the Unnamed Veretian has lived a life of comfort in the Akileon court, after Damen finds him bloody and injured in the woods. For seven years, the fate of Laurent the Prince of Vere has remained unknown after he escapes from a camp without anyone noticing. For seven years, the evil plot to take over two kingdoms remains hidden in the mind of the one person who already stopped it once, but doesn't remember.

Summary
“The Prince is inside, Your Majesty.”
Two guards were standing next to the doors of the room in front of which they were standing. “These are the king’s chambers,” Auguste observed.
“The King is recovering from a stab wound,” the Akileon said. “Your brother insists on staying by his side. They are… friends.”
“Oh?”
--
What I imagine would have happened immediately post canon, had Auguste been alive.

Summary
Don’t step into a fairy ring; Never speak Their names aloud; If you encounter one, be polite - but do not take anything they offer you. Laurent knows the old rules for surviving life adjacent to the Faerie realm. And the one new rule: do not go to Marlas, where a fae warrior awaits who, if you cannot defeat him in single combat, will steal a tribute from you as payment for trespassing - a ring, a cloak, or a tumble in the grass. But six years after his brother disappeared there, Laurent has no choice but to go again and again to seek the truth of what happened to him and find a way to bring him home. It is an adventure that will take him into the Faerie realm itself - but when he learns that the guardian he’s been visiting is actually a mortal prince held captive by the fae, it will take all his cleverness (and the help of both men) to rescue both his brother and the man he loves

“ Laurent ”, ele repete.
“Metade desse sangue não é meu”, diz Laurent, sabendo como ele deve estar parecendo, com sangue do pescoço aos joelhos.
Mas Damen avança, levando as mãos ao rosto de Laurent enquanto o encara como se realmente se importasse, como se Laurent significasse algo para ele. E diante dos criados no pátio e dos próprios deuses no céu azul acima deles, Damen se inclina o suficiente para se aproximar de Laurent e encontrar seus lábios para o beijo mais suave que Laurent jamais imaginou ser possível vindo de um homem como Damen.
Dura apenas alguns segundos antes de Damen interromper o beijo, e Laurent quer abrir a boca e dizer algo, qualquer coisa, mas Damen volta para outro beijo, e depois outro, e lentamente distribui beijos do canto da boca de Laurent até o canto do olho. Damen vira a cabeça e pressiona suas bochechas juntas, segurando Laurent perto, e tudo o que Laurent consegue fazer é envolver Damen com o braço e mantê-lo ali.

It took Damen twelve years to realise just how lucky he was. Laurent, of course, had a pretty good idea where this whole thing was heading from day one.

Summary
They were married on the battlefield.
After each of the Crown Princes of Akielos and Vere had fallen once, and each had allowed the other to arise, Auguste of Vere hesitated before resuming his attack, and said, “There is another way.” He spoke Akielon, so he clearly wanted to be understood by his enemy; his accent was heavy.

Summary
In which Damen and Auguste slap each other on the back and watch tournaments, but Laurent has exactly no desire to trail about tugging on that condescending Akielon Prince's sleeve.
Not initially, at least.

Summary
Laurent didn’t say anything. His throat was throbbing, and the back of his head hurt from where it had struck the wall. To ally with Damianos of Akielos was unthinkable; but the only other option was to kill him, and it was becoming increasingly clear that he would not be able to do that tonight.
“It’s getting dark,” Damianos noted, glancing at the sky. Apparently his silence had been taken for assent. “I will accompany you to your camp.”
Oh, that was too much. “You are not invited to my camp,” Laurent snarled.
Damianos looked at him for a long moment, before the corner of his mouth quirked up once more, the beginnings of an infuriating, arrogant grin. “And how will you stop me, sweetheart?” he asked.

Summary
Only two lounge chairs were occupied. Berenger recognized Laurent immediately and raised his hand in greeting as he got closer. He didn’t look so different after five years. He’d always had an otherworldly beauty about him, but he seemed to have grown into it now, grown more masculine. He was lounging on a chair with a blue towel under him, reading a book in the shade. He looked up and gave Berenger a quick smile.
Beside him was a red haired bombshell, holding a fashion magazine in one hand and a glass of iced lemonade in the other. His nails were painted emerald green. He looked up too, watching Berenger through a pair of too-large pink-tinted sunglasses.
Berenger frowned. Auguste had said Ancel was here, but he didn’t see him.
“Where is…?” Berenger started, looking around. And then the red haired youth raised his sunglasses, pushing his hair back from his face, and smirked. His eyes were a startling shade of emerald.
Berenger stopped in his tracks.
“Hello, Berenger,” Ancel purred.

Summary
Damen volunteers for his fraternity’s “slave week” charity auction, only to find himself subject to the fickle whims of Laurent DeVere, a prissy student journalist willing to ignore his moral objections to the slave auction if it means tormenting Damen, the man responsible for paralyzing Laurent’s older brother.

Summary
Auguste sets Laurent up on a blind date. The universe — and Damen — have other plans.
“I am on a blind date,” the man says, holding up his hands to forestall any more explanation from the too-helpful Ancel. “My brother set me up and I just—I wasn’t entirely listening when he told me what the guy’s name was. It was something that sounded like Brayden, that’s all I remember.”
“Could it have been—was it Damen?”
Damen’s not entirely sure what makes him offer up that lifeline. He—obviously—isn’t waiting here for a blind date, and he doesn’t know this man’s brother from Adam. Even the smallest amount of questioning would show him to be a liar, and maybe even get security called on him.
Still, as the man takes a moment to size him up, look him up and down appreciatively, Damen can hardly work up the effort to care.

Summary
Damen is the worst punishment Auguste could do to him, and so of course he did.
The thought of having to live with Damen until he gets better is smothering. They will have to share a home, Laurent’s home, his safe place, and Laurent cannot say no, because having Damen here is still better than going to the hospital, where he will be at the mercy of all.
