    Summary

    Inej needs a place to stay. Kaz offers her the empty apartment suite across the hall from his. Somehow, unexpectedly, their closer proximity meant Kaz could no longer ignore or deny what has been bubbling between them all these years. Not when there's only a hallway and two doors separating her from him.

    Summary

    “Inej,” the therapist said gently. “Would you like to introduce yourself?”

    Inej inhaled slowly before she spoke, as if measuring the cost of each word.

    “I’m here for aggravated assault and evasion,” she said. Her voice was soft, but it carried. She shifted in her seat, hesitating. "And...two counts of third degree murder but—I don’t believe that defines me.”

    A few people shifted. Someone scoffed quietly. Kaz watched the room instead of her, cataloguing reactions like inventory.

    “And you?” the therapist said, turning to him. “Kaz.”

    He leaned back in his chair, cane hooked loosely under one arm.

    “Kaz Brekker,” he said. “Fraud. Racketeering. Conspiracy. Eight counts of first degree of murder.” —That they knew of. 

    He paused, then added, “And I object to the premise of this exercise.”

    ---

    Kaz meets Inej for the first time in mandatory group therapy as part of the rehabilitation program at the Blacktide Correctional Facility.

    Summary

    The brush of the warm leather of his gloves against her skin made Inej shiver. She wondered how many times Kaz would end up patching her up in one bathroom or another; wondered if the tension radiating between them would always be that achingly sweet. Even if this bathroom was not as gilded as the Geldrenner’s, she couldn’t help the sense of déjà vu. There was the same longing, a tenderness in his featherlight touch her body could not help but respond to.

    Summary

    Kaz had to admit the traffickers were surprisingly clever – for thick-skulled pirates, at least. He had not expected to be ambushed on the site of his future textile manufacture out of town. Or, well, what was supposed to be the site of his new project. Seeing as he’d been set up, it seemed he would need to find a new abandoned warehouse to repurpose. It was an annoying detail that would have to wait, however, since he was presently tied up to a chair.

    Inej's enemies capture Kaz to lure her in a trap. It doesn't end well for them.

    Summary

    Five years after reuniting with her parents, Inej invites Kaz along to the fall festivities that bring together several Suli caravans in a forest area near the Ravkan capital. This being his second visit, he feels more than secure about his status as Inej's partner.

    The local community has other ideas, which forces both Kaz and Inej to reassess how they feel about something they haven't allowed themselves to even consider until now.

    Summary

    “Someone’s lively tonight. Takes more than a storm to scare ol’ Ghafa the Terrible.”

    Inej snorted. “The terrible? Saints, is that what they call me?”

    “Some of them, I’m sure,” Kaz said with a serious tone, though the corners of his mouth were pulling up in a smile. He shrugged out of his jacket and hung it beside Inej’s hat, tucking his gloves in the pockets and setting his cane against the door.

    She had rounded the corner of her desk and snaked her arms around him when he turned to face her. Her hand traced up his chest and rested on his jaw. “And what do you call me?”

    Kaz hummed in thought. His hands roamed her sides precariously, holding her tight to him. “Beautiful. Dangerous,” he swallowed hard before dipping his head down. He nudged her temple with his nose and pressed against her hair, drunk on her scent. “Mine,” he rasped.

    Summary

    “I think you wouldn’t have survived this long if you didn’t crave something beyond survival. If you were free—”

    Kaz cut him off with a sharp rap of his cane against the floor. “Freedom has a cost.”

    Voskel nodded quickly, bowing his head. “Yes. But the cost of inaction will be higher. The empire will sweep through your kingdom in a fortnight. You have maybe two hundred fighting men at most. You cannot hold them back like this.”

    The scholar’s words slid into his mind like knives. He hated that they were true.

    Finally, Kaz straightened and turned toward the door. “Find me someone who can guide me there. Not a mercenary who drinks away his courage, not a scout who runs when the shadows start whispering. Someone who doesn’t scare easy.”

    Voskel blinked, then nodded, relief plain on his face. “There’s a woman. A blade-dancer. They say she can walk on air, move without sound, disappear in a crowd. If anyone can get you to the temple alive—”

    Kaz’s mouth curved into something sharp, something dangerous. “Then she’s exactly who I need.”

    Summary

    Two people, in a city of smog and rain, ran through its streets. One fleeing the repercussions of a heist gone wrong. The other, escaping the captors that brought her to a foreign land. Their paths intercept and the two collide in ways that feel inevitable. With the woman's captors on her tail, she seeks to bargain with the man for a way to the docks. To escape this country for good. The two part ways, thinking the chance encounter both strange and singular.

    A year later, they meet once more. Except this time, the man introduces him as a Lord and the woman is a governess for the family of the lady he is courting.

    Except Inej is not so sure. She remembers him, remembers his cunning. And thinks perhaps there is more to the story than what he has spun.

    Summary

    He winced again when Inej took it firmly in hers, probably so he wouldn’t pull it away. She could be utterly merciless, and while he usually loved her for it, right now, with his bloodied knuckles literally in her hands, he wondered if it was completely wise of him to do so. Not that it would stop him anytime soon.

    Gloved fingers tap against the side of the cart again. They sound like the approaching footsteps of the hangman. Dirtyhands looks up at the awning of the building behind him. His jaw clenches. “Aileniz…nasil?” he asks eventually, and Abi’s blood runs cold.

     

    His family? Why would a Barrel boss want to know about his family? What is he insinuating?

     

    A Suli vendor in Ketterdam begins to believe he's being threatened by a notorious gang boss. In unrelated news, Kaz Brekker is attempting to learn Suli, and is abysmal at small talk.

    Summary

    [Set approximately a year and a half after "Crooked Kingdom" and before the Nikolai duology.]

    Inej returns to Ketterdam to winter there and she and Kaz attend a charity event organized by the very rich Jellen Radmakker, to obtain information on certain dynamics within the Merchant Council. However, during this little spying job, Inej glimpses someone from her past, which leads the young couple to discuss what it means to be there for each other in a relationship and how they will move forward from here on.

    Extract:
    "[...] I missed the Wraith’s excellent sense of hearing during these months," he said, his rasp a bit lower, a bit less secure.
    Inej smiled. She was no longer a Dreg, but captain of her namesake ship and she loved it. Part of her, however, would always remain a Crow and she liked to help Kaz with some little jobs here and there when she returned to Ketterdam.
    “I missed you too,” she said, extending her hand: an invitation.
    Kaz took it in his almost without hesitation and Inej couldn’t help but feel a hint of pride. He intertwined their fingers, letting his thumb caress her sea-wind molden skin.

    Summary

    It would be a very gentlemanly thing to do, she thinks, to offer his jacket to a lady, but for the fact that it’s a muggy midsummer evening and no extra layer of warmth is needed.

     

    He’s not being a gentleman, she decides, as she follows him down to the canal where he’s untying one of those funny little boats. He probably just doesn’t want to be seen taking a moonlit stroll with a whore.

     

    After being rescued from the nightmare of the Menagerie, Inej gets to know her new companion over contract negotiation.

    Summary

    Inej truly did not know what to make of him. Dirtyhands on her ship. What an alien thought, how bizarre. She turned it over in her mind, as she had been for the last dozen minutes or so, staring at him. Her crew wanted her to kill him. She’d wanted to. But something had stopped her, some doubt had stayed her hand.
    Not yet, it said. And she obeyed.

    OR

    Inej got her own way out of the Menagerie and became the slave-hunting pirate of her dreams! She finds Kaz on a slaving ship and keeps him as prisoner. Angst & ofc enemies to lovers trope follows :)

    Summary

    Perhaps Inej should be insulted that she’s been penciled into Kaz’s schedule, fit snugly in between a Crow Club shareholders’ meeting and a parley with the Liddies, but when it comes to taking steps forward in their relationship, romantic spontaneity is not exactly something they can afford.

     

    One step on the long and winding road to intimacy.
