    Summary

    “Who are you?”
    “The kid who wanted to live.”

    After the events in Cairo, Marc struggles to ease into the peace and quiet that comes with their freedom. Steven does everything in his power to help—they go to therapy, attend evening classes, all the while looking for a job and trying to reconnect with Layla—but it seems fruitless as Marc catches sight of a vigilante on the loose in London, firmly believing they are up against Khonshu’s next Avatar. They decide to investigate further, and in the blink of an eye they find themselves in an auction held in Paris, trying to obtain an ankh cross. The relic seems to be much more than the symbol of life—it is also the bringer of demons of the Egyptian underworld and of the past that should’ve stayed buried.

    Summary

    Marc. Jake almost sounds like he’s laughing. It’s ok man. You don’t have to worry.

    Marc sucks in a breath, hands squeezing in loose, intermittent fists. “I know,” he whispers, but the words are barely there to hold their meaning.

    Then let us take care of this for now, Steven says. He pauses, and Marc can see him, see the way his face softens. Let us take care of us.

    Summary

    Over the phone, it was easy to forget they weren’t one person. One could almost pretend Marc had an excitable British roommate. Layla didn’t pretend. But there was something very unsettling about standing in a room that had contained her husband one second ago, and suddenly contained someone wholly different.

    *
    This is a story about how Marc and Layla learn to fit Steven into their relationship, Steven learns what being in a relationship is all about, and definitely no one is hanging out with Khonshu on the sly.

    Main story is complete!
