    Summary

    Centuries have passed since the Second Rune Wars. Magic is forbidden. Mages have been erased from history, their very existence reduced to ash. To speak of the arcane is a crime—dangerous, treasonous, unthinkable. But when Jayce helps unearth a statue half-buried far outside the ruins of Piltover, something about it unsettles him. A memory he can’t quite name. Something old. Something arcane.

    Desperate for answers, he enlists the help of Viktor, the archivist in charge of cataloguing artifacts from the site. Together, they begin to fill in the gaps left by historians who refuse to even utter the word arcane.

    But the more he learns, the more he realizes that his connection to the stone may run deeper than he ever imagined.

    Worn, scarred hands chisel away at stone. For a blacksmith whose job was never to carve skin from stone, only steel from fire, it’s surprising he’s gotten as far as he has. The body of the statue is nearly complete, the face still only just shaped, awkward, jagged angles that will soon be smoothed away to form the face of his lover. His soulmate.

    Summary

    Jayce has never been a jealous person. It’s a solid fact. Something he is one hundred percent sure about when it comes to himself.

    Viktor takes that as a personal challenge.

    Summary

    Viktor has never suffered through a heat. He had simply chalked it up to another consequence of his illnesses, another thing on the long list of things wrong with him, of things that made him lesser than everyone else around him.

    Summary

    Viktor knew how he looked. With his sharp angles and hollowed cheeks and colt-like limbs, he was a serpentine god with all his alabaster beauty.

    The nobles whispered about it. The investors watched Viktor move, fascination warring with discomfort. The Council scoffed at the idea of a Zaunite on their board—until they saw him.

    Exotic. Enthralling. An exquisite thing to be coveted for themselves.

    Viktor had once despised it.

    Despised the way they stared, the way their fascination was always tinged with something possessive, as if he were a rare specimen on display. Loathed the murmurs in the Academy halls, the furtive glances that dogged him everywhere he went.

    Now?

    Now, he used it.

    If they should lust after him, they did so at their own peril.

    Desire was a fundamental human weakness. A distraction. A vulnerability. And if Jayce Talis was to prove useful, then Viktor would use every weakness he had.
