    Summary

    Thirty years ago, Xornoth was possessed by Exor. After killing their parents and rising to the throne, they imprisoned their brother, unable to kill him without killing themself.

    But now, they've figured out a way to dispose of him. Send him to an arranged marriage with their oldest enemy, the Ocean Empire, and let them deal with him however they see fit. With thousands of years of tension between the two kingdoms, it won't be long before they decide they don't want him around anymore.

    Jimmy just wants peace for his people. And if marrying some recluse prince is the key to finally ending the feud between their empires, he'll do it. But his new fiance is far from what he was expecting, and slowly he begins to wonder if there is something more sinister going on within the walls of the isolated elven kingdom.

    Summary

    floc·ci·nau·ci·ni·hil·i·pil·i·fi·ca·tion

    /ˌfläksēˌnäsēˌnihəlēˌpiləfəˈkāSH(ə)n/

    noun
    the action or habit of estimating something as worthless.

    Wemmbu was the crown prince, and for him, perfection wasn’t a choice—it was an order. Diamonds form under pressure, yet even the strongest gems are bound to break. So maybe, in the rare moments he was left alone, trapped in a castle he never truly called home, he slipped into the only life he felt was his own, and became the mercenary that haunted the kingdom’s alleyways—Gambit.

    Flame is Wemmbu’s personal guard, whose life’s purpose is protecting him; he also coincidentally despises Gambit.

    Parrot is a detective, tasked with finding out Gambit’s true identity.

    Spoke is a troublemaker, a prankster, who so happens to be Gambit’s newest target.

    Summary

    The man hovering over him leaned back, releasing Grian completely. Cold night air rushed in to fill the void.

    “I guess it’s out in the open now,” the stranger hummed. “Shame. I wanted to avoid this.”

    With the additional glow occupying the space between them, Grian was finally able to catch features that were lost in the prior darkness. His curiosity outweighed all else, and he drank them in greedily. As soon as he saw who sat across from him, alarms blared in his mind.

    This man wasn’t a civilian, wasn’t even a hero.

    “Hello, Doctor,” the villain mused. “You were quite the help today.”

    - or -

    Grian is a vet. After a chance encounter in the dead of night, during which he accidentally saves a villain from the brink of death, he suddenly finds himself entangled in a world beyond anything he could've ever imagined.
