    Summary

    She should have taken her heels off, Bana thinks, out of breath, and pauses at the top of the long, spiraling corridor leading down into Coruscant's depths to rub at the sore spot where a strap is digging into her ankle.

    It had seemed like too great a risk to remove them earlier, though, and Bana hadn’t expected moving a body to be so hard. The holos always make this sort of thing look far easier.

    Summary

    Paul Atreides took the throne with blood on his hands and fire in his soul.
    Chani was his love. Irulan, his destiny.
    But between the war, the visions, and the weight of power,
    Paul found he couldn't take his eyes off the princess.
    She was a gilded cage... and he, the prisoner who chose not to escape.
    Because sometimes, the empire burns not with power,
    but with desire.

    Summary

    Ellwood is in Maitland’s bed, but all he can think and talk about is Gaunt.

    AKA John Maitland is both a saint and the loneliest character in the book.

     

    “You’re beautiful inside and out, Sidney Ellwood. You have me thoroughly under your spell.” Maitland turns them over so that he’s on top of Ellwood, pinning him to the mattress.

    The weight of Maitland on top of him is enticing, but it’s when Maitland slides a muscular thigh between Ellwood’s legs that Ellwood quickly grows hard. “Take me,” he says, like it’s a dare. Anything to distract himself from the lead weight in his heart that reminds him Maitland has given Ellwood all of himself, but Ellwood has given him less in return.

    “I know you imagine him sometimes,” Maitland says.

    Ellwood freezes. There’s no romantic quotation for crushing your lover’s heart by imagining they’re another.

    Summary

    Four years after their summer romance,
    Elio attends Oliver‘s class at Columbia and both their worlds start to unravel.

    This is my take on a fix-it and personal love letter to the book,
    mind you, it's very self indulgent.
