    Summary

    The Chief Justice, with his guardedness and meticulous planning, wouldn't have dared confess without dissecting every emotion, every potential consequence beforehand.

    And yet.

    The way Neuvillette had carried himself suggested otherwise. Like something had wrenched hold of him, something he was afraid to let go for fear of what it might bring. It dawned on Wriothesley then, as he watched Neuvillette idly fiddle with the ruffles of his sleeves, that in his hundreds of years of living, he had probably never expressed interest in anyone before.

    And that was a truly terrifying thought, indeed.

    Plagued by nightmares and increasing grief, only fond memories of Wriothesley seem to offer Neuvillette any comfort. But when Neuvillette quietly tiptoes into the Duke’s office late one evening and confesses, both find themselves faced with a choice: continued isolation or love's uncharted path.

    For those exhausted by life’s burdens, perhaps it’s only a love that can be found in each other's embrace that can offer true respite.

    Summary

    “My apologies. Could I trouble you with some tea, Wriothesley? My throat has been itchy all day,” says Neuvillette quietly.

    “Of course. I was about to brew some for myself. Please, take a seat. I won’t be long,” says Wriothesley as he gestures towards the couch.

    The Iudex merely takes a few steps before he stumbles and drops his cane. Wriothesley sees him about to collapse and he hurries to his side, catching him in his arms just in time.

    “Neuvillette!!” exclaims Wriothesley in a panic.

    His panic only grows when he realizes that Neuvillette passed out. “Shit. Fuck,” seethes Wriothesley.

    Summary

    Neuvillette startles when the manager’s hands suddenly squeeze his shoulders, the man standing behind him.

    “My dear Vi, I don’t know what you did, but you have captured this fine gentleman’s attention. He has just paid to have you exclusively for a whole month. Well done,” announces the manager, sounding beyond thrilled.

    Neuvillette is frozen in place, bewildered. He locks eyes with the stranger, but they don’t betray any emotion. Neuvillette is confused. Why would this man pay what was undoubtedly an exorbitant amount of money - Neuvillette knows how much an hour of his time cost - for an escort he has not even had a taste of?

    He feels uneasy, feels dread settle in the pit of his stomach.

    Summary

    After a tragic incident made him forsake his work as a sailor, Wriothesley leads a relatively peaceful life as a lighthouse keeper instead – until one stormy night, he unexpectedly falls under the spell of a vicious siren. Miraculously, he manages to break through the hypnosis, but the monster continues to torment him to the verge of insanity. The next time they meet face to face, the siren, who introduces himself as Neuvillette, insists that the entire situation has been a misunderstanding and even has the nerve to suggest they should become friends! With the horrors he put him through?! Absurd!

    With all that said... life on a desolate island does get a bit lonely at times, and it seems that Neuvillette is able to relate to that notion more than anyone. Slowly but surely, Wriothesley finds himself drawn to the siren's charm more and more, and their unprecedented relationship might just end up being the key to dealing with some of his past regrets. As long as Neuvillette is able to suppress his wild instincts, that is...

    Summary

    “Pretty as you are, I wouldn’t be opposed to being paid back in another way.” The words were followed by a wink and a charming smile.

    Neuvillette scoffed, completely outraged. “How preposterous! I am no prostitute! How dare you!” His cheeks burned in mortification and shame.

    Never in his life had he been propositioned by a man before! The nerve of this man!

    Neuvillette was so appalled that he pushed past the cowboy and began walking back towards the road with the intent of making his way on foot if he needed to.

    “Relax, Neuvillette, I was teasing you! I didn’t mean to offend your delicate sensibilities,” Wriothesley said with amusement.

    “You are a rascal! A boor!” exclaimed the Englishman with annoyance.
