Summary
He imagined himself nineteen again, knowing then what he knew now, and wondered if he would let that long ago battle fall to the Veretians -- let Auguste live. If he would have ignored his father's call to arms altogether, and instead found his way to the Veretian tents and sought out Auguste to find some common ground.
Five years after the Truce of Marlas, Damen and Laurent meet again in Delpha. They're forced to work together to soothe the growing tension between their countries. But Laurent does not forgive easily and Damen's not that sorry.

Summary
“I don’t fuck on command,” said Damen.
“You will,” said the man, “Because I have a plan to escape this coliseum, and it does not involve being killed by the one prudish barbarian who would rather kill me than bend me over.”

Summary
Damianos bows and then says, “Auguste!” before pulling Auguste into a back-slapping hug. When he gets to Laurent he gives a short bow, eyes not leaving Laurent’s face. “Laurent,” he says. His accent is perfect.
“No hug for me?” Laurent says.
Damianos takes his hand and pulls him forward. There’s no back-slapping, and it’s just Laurent’s imagination that Damianos holds on for a bit longer than appropriate.
When he steps back, Laurent gestures to Justine. “My fiancée, Justine of Patras.”
She curtsies. Damianos kisses her hand.
