Summary
“He reveals deep and hidden things; he knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with him” (Daniel 2:22).
In the span of one year, Laurent lost everything; his parents, his best friend, his brother, his innocence. What waited for him in the shadow of his grief presented itself as love. It takes Laurent three years to figure out that it’s not.
He teeters now on the cusp of revelation, nudged along by Auguste’s return from war and by a budding romance, but will it be enough to pull Laurent out of the shadow? -

Summary
He is an animal, said the inside-voice. We should bleed him dry.
I say: “I hear the King of Akielos has sent me a gift.”The game has changed and now they expect me to play a certain part.
So then I have to wonder: What would a duller Laurent do?or; Captive Prince from Laurent's side.

The whole continent has been ravaged and weakend by the unforseen scourge of dragons. The mighty creatures seem to be attacking out of newhere, leaving destruction in their wake. The ashy, abandoned landscape brings out orc hordes and various monsters, which overrun the land.

Laurent and six other Omegas are captured and paraded through the streets of Arles as a "voluntary" Sacrifice to the greatest dragon, like in the tales of old; the Regent will do anything to broker out peace and save his country, after all - even sacrifice his own nephew and the only heir...

Summary
“I’m going back to bed,” he says loftily. “I was right; you’re absolutely mad.”
“Laurent.”
“I do not recall inviting you to use my given name.”
“Do not be ridiculous—Marquis, you cannot go in there. Please.” Damen cannot touch him, not even to stop him. He can, however, use his body as a blockade. He strides ahead before turning and spreading his arms. The Marquis draws up short.
“You are the one who is being ridiculous,” he informs Damen evenly, as though it is a fact.
“There is—A Man is in the entrance hall.” The Marquis rolls his eyes, but on looking down, the frown descends on his brow once more.
“What have you done?” There is something strange in his voice. “Why are you bleeding?” Damen looks down as well. Indeed, there are ribbons torn into his right leg, flowing lines of red cut along the flesh by the fingers of the ghost. He had not noticed, but the bottom of his shirt is shredded.
He will have to send to Ios for a trunk of clothes. Laundering will not mend this.
“As I have said to you, there was a Man—as there was a Boy, the night before last. He came out of the arched doorway, and clawed at me.”

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
Laurent closed his eyes and skimmed his fingers over his arms, forcing himself to think that it was Damen’s hand, that it was his touch and love. Did it count as betrayal? Did Laurent betray him when he gave himself up to his uncle? Laurent remembered the way Damen thrashed on the floor, how fiercely he swore to kill his uncle, how desperately he shouted Laurent, Laurent, Laurent.
Laurent is imprisoned in the dark cell and prepares himself for death. He has two visitors.

Summary
His senses awakened to a sharp scent of iron and copper, overwhelming in its intensity, nauseating. Worse yet was the feeling of the warm, sticky liquid on his skin, soaked through his clothes and hair.
Blood.
There was so much blood.

Summary
“You knew I’d come over here”, Damen voiced his realization right as it came to him.
“I did.”
“Why?”
Those icy eyes gave him a whole different kind of look. The man’s gaze was intense, his words even more so.
“You know why.”
Damen downed the rest of his drink at once. It burned his throat, but he needed it.
“Do I?”
The blonde got up, leaving his seat and drink behind, as he started walking away.
“You do”, he said, and Damen followed.

Summary
Laurent, a newly turned vampire with very little knowledge of the supernatural world he's been forced into, bumps into a lost ghost wandering around the streets of Marlas, and decides to help him get justice for his death. However, there are other Supernatural creatures lurking in Marlas, a group led by a charismatic werewolf called Damianos and a mysterious shapeshifter known as Cyra.
AKA a fic where I explore my faves as Supernatural creatures and play around a little. I have a general plot and a direction I can see this going, will try and update monthly! I'm tryna go for the kinda light comedy vibe but with sort of contrasted with dark parts, angst etc, and I've drawn inspiration from many things to kind of attempt to create my own lore on some supernatural beings that will be showing up.
Had a bit of a meltdown and deleted the original fic but I've re uploaded and will be posting once again, unfortunately cannot gaurantee any schedule
(more updates, I abandoned this fic due to many reasons which are summarized in the notes on chapter 7, but I'm back at it again after about 4 years so yay. also Laurent is a trans man now lol)

Summary
Everyone knows something's going on with Laurent, but nobody can quite put a finger on it. Running what's left of their parents' company sure is difficult, but he has uncle Reg to help, doesn't he?
Auguste would give anything to understand. He'd do anything to help his little brother, but their relationship has never been the same, ever since he came back from France with a wife and a kid. One would think your own brother would be happy for you, but that is *not* what's happening.
Instead, the one who's there happens to be an old friend, Damen. He comes with a basket of his own shit to deal with, but he's reliable. And kind-hearted, and fun, and loyal to a fault.
...Laurent seems to hate him with a passion.
