Summary
On New Year's Eve 1940, the black and white picture of St. Paul Cathedral, standing unscathed in a wrecked London, was shoved down Wool's orphans' throat as though, it alone, was enough light in the Blitz's despair to descry a glimpse of hope.
As though, telling kids who had to live with the Devil that there was a proof God existed, could ever be enough to relive their long-lost faith.

Summary
220 B.C.E: Laurent fights in his father's army, but watches his brother die at the hands of Damianos, the gladiator son & heir of Akeilos. Instead of taking his place as Emperor, Laurent finds himself pitted against his uncle's Court, where the rules change every day & none of them are in his favor. In a bid to survive, Laurent becomes friends with the one boy he thinks will be able to survive his uncle (even if the age gap makes conversations repetitive at times).
212 B.C.E.: A grieving Damianos charges into battle for the final time, after saying goodbye to the two people he'd thought were untouchable.
2020: Nicaise is an undergraduate paleoanthropology student. He's in Italy with classmates, experts & his professors as they continue the decades-long search for the final resting place of the Lost King of Akeilos.The only thing more valuable than the Lost King's final resting place is an answer to the millennia-old mystery: where did the Forgotten Son of Vere go? While excavating, Nicaise falls through a ceiling into a burial tomb. But as Nicaise works and studies to discover more about these men, their lives and their deaths, he begins to realize a broken bone might be the least of his issues...

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
Laurent has given in to temptation and signed up for that new dating app everyone's raving about: ClockYourFace. You get five minutes a day to converse with a stranger, and nothing more. Text, photos, and a five-star rating, if you want to chat again (and again, and again...) What's Laurent got to lose? Only his dignity, and historically, that hasn't been worth much. He's hoping he'll find a way to pass his long lunch hours alone – and if he's really lucky, he might just meet his match.

Summary
Five times Kallias and Erasmus almost kiss, and one time when they actually do.
Erasmus wriggled under the covers while Kallias scooted back to make room. The twin bed was small; they both fit, but only if they wrapped their arms around and pressed up against each other. They were almost exactly of a height. Kallias dropped his forehead against Erasmus’s. Their noses brushed. Kallias was painfully aware of how near Erasmus’s lips were, of their precise position despite the dark. Of how impossible it would be to do anything about it.

Summary
On the verge of war between the human kingdom of Vere and the Fey realm of Akielos, a treaty is struck - Prince Laurent of Vere and Prince Damianos of Akielos will wed in order to solidify a historic alliance and peace.
That’s all well and good, and Laurent’s idea to boot, but between avoiding assassination attempts and uncovering coups, he’s got bigger problems to deal with than an earnest, if wayward fiancé who's keeping just as many secrets from Laurent as Vere is from Akielos. But who needs honesty in an alliance when you can have political intrigue and attempted murder?

Summary
Laurent had never allowed Damen to do more than kiss him while drunk until recently. Last night, as they danced to bad music in the living room, Damen wearing that stupidly big grin on his face and picking him up without stumbling for a single second to kiss him hard, Laurent didn’t feel any of the anxiety he thought he would.
He thought the smell of liquor on his lover’s breath would bring up too many bad memories if he allowed it in the bedroom. He thought he would feel anxious and afraid, that Damen, as gentle as he is, might be too rough if he was too drunk to control himself. But he wasn’t. Damen was just… Damen.

Summary
Laurent and Damen are cast in a movie together. While Laurent is an experienced actor who's already been on broadway and has grown up in a family of artists, Damen is just your typical influencer who's decided to branch out. Let's just say Laurent's not too impressed when he discovers he has to work with an amateur like that. Except for that the amateur actually looks kind of hot and maybe he isn't actually that bad at acting or singing.
or alternatively
Damen and Laurent fall for each other while working on a movie together. Nikandros' life is made a living hell and Auguste's proud of himself for seeing it coming.

Summary
Kallias and Erasmus waved to Torveld one last time before turning and leaving, making their way around the bend in the road. Although there was apprehension for the next couple of days, Erasmus found that he didn't regret his decision but instead was filled with a boyish excitement.
This was his first year in the world.
They stood in fields surrounded by the world, all they had to do was pick a direction.
