Summary
Owen was an entirely unexpected windfall—something that didn’t happen much anymore in Xanatos’s meticulously plotted life.
Xanatos hardly noticed him at first. Owen had an unremarkable appearance: blond hair, wire-framed glasses, a face that would be difficult to pick out in a crowd, or even a boardroom. He faded into the background—intentionally, Xanatos realized, far later than he should have.
It was unsettling to be so caught off guard. Unsettling and...intriguing.

Summary
Kim took a long drink of his beer. It tasted watery and bad, exactly what he needed. “Why have you been coming here every night for a month?”
“Intellectual stimulation. And I wanted to see you again.”
“Intellectual stimulation?” Kim was struck by how different this man was sober: playful and charming and not nearly as pathetic. A proper flirt, his voice and posture expressive, exuding warmth. Kim had liked him as a sad drunk, but relatively sober? Oh, Kim liked him.
Kim and Harry meet eight years before Martinaise at a cruising bar where Kim never wears his glasses.

Summary
“You sound nervous, Viktor. Is something –” Then he caught sight of the small hand clutching the side of Viktor’s vest. Jayce’s words stuck in his throat as a face peeped out from behind the scientist, a young girl with startlingly blue hair looking up at him with fear. “Um – who’s this?”
. . . years later . . .
“Just this once,” Jinx whispered, “Can’t I prove that I can help my family instead of watching them die?"
On the night Jinx loses her family, Viktor finds her and takes her in as his apprentice on the Hextech team. But when he falls ill, the lengths she’ll go to save him might just drive her mad…
