    Summary

    It's been seven years since Damen was crowned king of Akielos and Laurent king of Vere, seven years since the night at Ravenel, before things fell apart.
    It's been seven years since Damen's dreams of Ravenel started haunting him, aching for a future that was never meant to be, aching for Laurent, for what he thought they'd once had.

    And after seven years, Damen knows it's time to move on. Can he? Can they?

     

    A.k.a: What would have happened if Damen and Laurent wouldn't have fixed things up after their fallout in Kings Rising? How different would their lives be? And how would they come back to one another either way?

    Summary

    Blue eyes passed over Damen. Laurent told the policewoman, “I didn’t agree to this”.

    “Your uncle thinks it is necessary,” said Damen. “Please get into the car.”

    Laurent met his eyes then, expression unchanged from one of cool hostility. “You’ve met him.” He missed the inflection that would have made it a question, so Damen didn’t answer.

    “I understand you don’t want me here, but it is to protect you.”

    “I’m capable of doing that myself.” Laurent had to lift his chin, and under different circumstances Damen might have smiled.

    “You’ll forgive me if I disagree.”

    “Will I? Fascinating.”

    // The Regent is running for PM. Damen is assigned as bodyguard to his adopted son.

    Summary

    You’re reading a book containing your entire life story from beginning, to middle, to end. In one of the pages, you see a footnote containing my name. You look it up and find all these poems upon poems dedicated to you, ink spilled as they painted pages with you-- isn’t it funny, how you’re my entire novel whereas I’m just a brief mention in yours?

    Summary

    Excerpt from chapter one: "Laurent, I’d like to introduce you to His Grace the Duke of Sicyon, Damianos d'Akielos.”
    Damen reacted instinctively. He took the omega’s offered hand and bowed over it. “Lord Laurent.”
    The man curtsied before him, it was done with the same fluidity as before the Empress. “Duke, I’m honored to make your acquaintance.”
    Just like that, Damen knew that something fundamental had changed and he wasn’t sure if that was terrifying or exhilarating. Most likely both.

    Set during a regency period, Lord Laurent deVere, second son of the Duke of Arran and Alier, makes his social debut in Marlas in the court of the imperial couple. Dancing, courting, new friendships and maybe even love ensues.
