    Summary

    If anyone asked, you’d tell them you never really thought about your wedding. You figured it probably wouldn’t happen given the sorry state of the world. For one thing, you’d be too wrapped up in your work to consider getting tied up in a relationship, let alone marriage. And for another, you’ve seen enough social media posts and been the shoulder for enough criers to know that maybe it wasn’t worth it. That maybe there wasn’t ever such a thing as an equal partner, so what was the point in looking for one?

    (If anyone asked again, you’d admit that you were lying.

    Rafayel was the only one who ever asked again. The only one who saw the cracks in the foundation, and then peeked through them. He didn’t just show you the point. He made it so you didn’t even have to look in the first place.)

    ———

    Or: Rafayel has waited forever for his wedding night. You have every intention to make it unforgettable.

    Summary

    You’ve known Rafayel long enough to gather three things.

    The first is that you’ve never seen him paint a portrait. More often than not he submits himself to the abstract, to smears of color that, according to him, never fully capture what he feels but at least get close enough. Sometimes, he allows himself a landscape here and there. But never a portrait. Never a person. No matter how much someone offers to pay him.

    The second is that he refuses to wake up at dawn if he can help it. He’s never told you why. Just that there’s something about the sound of the morning bells that he hates.

    The third is that there is a door in Mo Art Studio—just one—that Rafayel has never opened.

    ———

    Or: The manifestations of love as history, art, civilization, and the sheer horrors of yearning.

    Summary

    "Why are you doing this, anyway?”

    “I already told you,” he says patiently. “I want you—”

    “To see what you see. I know. But.” You flounder, struggling to articulate exactly why this scenario is so difficult for you to wrap your head around. It’s not the nudity, not really. But the sheer amount of attention he’s given you. The time. “You’re not really getting anything out of this. Not if you don’t put it on exhibit.”

    There’s a pause in the rhythm of his sketching. “Ma petite muse,” Rafayel purrs, the endearment dripping with amusement. "Are you asking me why I ‘do’ art?”

    Summary

    “One click to check in. Two if it’s good. Three to tap out.” You slip the training tool between Rafayel’s fingers, waiting for his thumb to find a secure place on the button. “If you want to check in, wait until I say ‘click’ before giving me your answer. That’ll keep us from getting confused. I’ll say the same if I want to check in with you.”

    His eyes follow you as you sit back to admire your handiwork. It’s not a glare precisely, but it’s not pleased. He’s offended, probably, that you’d be so cruel to incapacitate him like this. He’s already collared, nude, and kneeling on the covers. His hands are restrained in leather cuffs connected to a harness around each thigh. Throw the cat ears in and it’s ridiculous as it is arousing.

    Because you can’t help yourself, you say, “Good thing Tara already had a clicker for Percy, right?”

    Summary

    There was no way this was fair.

    If it HAD been fair, you wouldn’t have been standing here, looking like an absolute idiot on a treadmill, eyes trying to look everywhere but the guy on the stupid stationary bikes in front of you.

    If it HAD been fair, you wouldn’t have pushed Xavier to come work out with you, you wouldn’t have insisted for him to wear something with no sleeves so ‘his skin would be able to breathe’, and you for fucking sure wouldn’t have recommended the workout shorts he’s wearing right now.

    Summary

    Most of the time, Rafayel doesn’t even need an introduction; such is the life of a world-renowned painter, after all. But there’s a difference between introducing him as Rafayel, the painter who you’re contractually obligated to keep safe, and Rafayel, the guy you’ve been seeing for a while, or even Rafayel, your boyfriend. Just like there’s a difference between introducing him to Tara and Simone, who caught him idling outside headquarters on more than one occasion and were dying to know about the guy whose car you keep getting into after work, and bringing him along as a plus-one to your friend’s wedding.

    You don’t bring just anyone to a wedding.

    ---

    Or: Rafayel will do anything for you. Including attending the thing he hates the most.

    Summary

    Any smart remark he had for her withers on his tongue. After a few moments of his dumb staring, she frowns at him over the table. “Earth to Rafayel? You okay?”

    The answer is no. He’s fucked, actually, because she smells heavenly, the air around her laced with a musk that’s earthy and honey-sweet. Apparently, it wasn’t enough that the Praedator virus robbed him of his memory, privileges, and agency. It had to curse him with the ability to smell when she was fertile too.

    Summary

    First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes a baby in a baby carriage!

    Fate has not always been kind to the last sea god. Rafayel has spent eight hundred years on this planet and throughout the many lives he has lived, there's always been one constant: the thought of her.

    Now, he has found his beloved once more and he knows exactly how he wants to do things this time around. But what does it mean when he shares a drunken night with you, the innkeeper of the estate by his home in Whitesand Bay, leading to unexpected expecting?

    What does it mean when he no longer feels the hands of fate blistering the skin of his shoulders, when he looks at someone else other than his destined bride and treacherously sees forever?

    Summary

    Caleb never made the first move. Being with him was like a game of follow the leader. If you kissed him, he would kiss you. If you bit him on the neck, he would suck and bite your neck with such intensity that you would wake up the next day with hickeys all over your neck and chest, forcing you to wear turtlenecks for the next few days. If you opened your mouth to suck on his tongue, he would invade your mouth with a ferocious hunger, holding your chin to keep your mouth open wider, until your jaw began to ache and you had to pull away.
