Summary
Auguste sets Laurent up on a blind date. The universe — and Damen — have other plans.
“I am on a blind date,” the man says, holding up his hands to forestall any more explanation from the too-helpful Ancel. “My brother set me up and I just—I wasn’t entirely listening when he told me what the guy’s name was. It was something that sounded like Brayden, that’s all I remember.”
“Could it have been—was it Damen?”
Damen’s not entirely sure what makes him offer up that lifeline. He—obviously—isn’t waiting here for a blind date, and he doesn’t know this man’s brother from Adam. Even the smallest amount of questioning would show him to be a liar, and maybe even get security called on him.
Still, as the man takes a moment to size him up, look him up and down appreciatively, Damen can hardly work up the effort to care.

Joe and Nile have been raised by witches. They both want something different out of life and out of love -- namely, Nile wants to experience the magic of everything, and Joe wants to use his magic to protect himself from the fallout of passion that can go wrong. But one day when Nile brings trouble home with her in the form of a dead man, and a detective named Nicolo who comes looking for answers, Joe is forced to confront everything he's spent his entire life trying to avoid.

Summary
Damen said, “I’m not sure what it is you’re asking me to do.”
“It’s simple enough,” said Laurent. “Come to my games, cheer me on in the stands. Be my date to a few networking events. And most importantly, let the press see how blissful domesticity with you has softened me.”

Summary
Now that Nicaise was looking for the signs, they were everywhere. No more spontaneous kisses. No more casual touches. No more muffled laughter spilling upstairs from the living room after Nicaise had gone to bed.
