Summary
❝ Between the trunks of trees in your favorite cluster, two boys surge forth straight to you. They're grinning almost wickedly, but your first instinct is to look around to see if they made another clever getaway or if—
There. Sylus is unmistakable even from the distance he maintains, thumbs hooked into his pockets and his expression neutral. He wears a fresh suit in his typical fashion: dressed down and less crisp than you assume it was when he put it on this morning, complete with the park-safe sneakers. ❞

Summary
Shane sighed with relief as the doors of the elevator closed. Whoever was in the hall probably didn’t see him. He would figure out how to move past the humiliation of sending that text message to Ilya. But first, he needed to get back to the safety of his hotel room.
“That was close,” Shane murmured to himself and slumped against the wall.
The doors of the elevator opened again.
Shane straightened at the sight of Ilya Rozanov, wearing nothing but an unbuttoned pair of slacks, his golden chain, and a phone in his hand.
[OR Ilya realized he made a mistake letting Shane go after their hookup in Vegas. As he's rushing to find Shane, he receives a text message from Shane that reads: We didn’t even kiss.]

Summary
The ice made sense. His blades cut through clear glass and chipped snow. Warm ups calmed him enough that he didn't even freak out when Rozanov approached him.
“Strange," he said as he made lazy circles around where Shane was stretching out his thighs.
After a beat, he knew Rozanov was waiting for him to take the conversational bait. “What's strange?"
“We have never been on the same side of the blue line before."
He was bracing for a chirp, so this plain statement threw him off. "Yeah, I guess.”
"Do you think they know?”
"That we're on the same team?”
"That we're going to destroy them.” Rozanov stalled his restless circles to lock eyes with Shane, and the whole arena fell away. "You and me, we will be incredible.”
Or, Shane and Ilya are not soulmates, they just have really, really good sex.

Summary
“Is it so hard to believe that I assumed at least one of you would take my side? That one of the men I call family would believe in me? That someone would fight for me? Say no, Arthur would never kill Merlin?” His voice began rising, agony taking over his need to shut his body down. “Is it so hard to believe?” he yelled into the otherwise quiet forest. “That I wanted someone to take my side? That someone would love me first?” Arthur tore his gaze away from Leon, “that I wanted one person in this whole fucking kingdom to love me?”
Or
Arthur saw Merlin use his magic and has to deal with realizing every one of his most trusted knights -his family- all believed that he would kill Merlin.- Language:
