    Summary

    Damen has two wolves inside of him. One of them is in love with Laurent. The other one is also in love with Laurent, he just doesn't know it yet.

    "They’ll always talk about you, D," Nikandros tells him, "for as long as you are who you are. Better they talk about your abysmal love life than go digging any deeper into what you do in your free time. That’s the whole point of this, remember?”

    And Damen, fully chastened by now, sighs. He remembers. How could he not? His entire life had been pretending at something else or the other—pretending that he knew how to run his father’s billion dollar corporation, pretending that the only things he cared about were women, booze and loud cars.

    Pretending that he could make a difference in this world, even if it was just by stopping one mugging at a time.

    Sometimes he wasn’t sure there was any part of him that existed that wasn’t some sort of pretense or the other. If the tabloids dug down and tried to find out who was underneath Damianos Vallis, heir to the billion dollar Vallis Corporation, son to a dead father, brother to a murderous traitor—

    All they would find are empty masks, all the way down.

    Summary

    the crows are now nearing the end of their sophomore year in college, navigating near-proper-adulthood.

    much fun, much drama.

    part 2 to “university challenge”, which is likely good to read for background, although you may be alright just starting off here.

    Summary

    Excerpt from 'The Life and Times of King Charles the Third', volume XI of the 'Histories of Westchester':

    They say that his birth was foretold by the Great Seer of this Age, an omega child born unto the House of Xavier and most beloved of the gods. Powerful amongst the Gifted Ones the child will grow to rule a kingdom mighty and vast, a legacy of dominion over land and sea. That he will be beautiful beyond mortal countenance and desired by all who see his face. Empires will fall by his command and kings by his design; the world torn asunder by war and then made new from its ashes.

    These are the words that herald the arrival of Charles Francis Xavier, 124th of the line of Xavier and heir to the throne of Westchester.

    This is his story.
