    Summary

    “Technically we’re not at the HPC now.”

    Sebas’ eyes were wide and wet. His mouth was too, dropped open like Roque had surprised him— which wasn’t fair at all, Roque thought. All he had done was repeat the terms Sebas himself had laid out hours ago. Sebas was the one who had followed Roque out here after watching him all night.

    This wasn’t a trap. It was a joint effort. Sebas wanted this just as much as Roque did. The desire was made apparent by the way he swayed forward, drawn in by the unspoken promise in Roque’s words.

    Anything he wanted, Roque would give him. All he had to do was let go.

    Summary

    “I’m not willing to do anything.” Keeping his voice even took more effort than Eli would have liked it to.

    Victor’s laughter was an effortless contrast. “That’s funny,” he said. “I was going to say that anything is exactly what you’re willing to do.”

    Summary

    “Deny, deny, deny,” Victor murmured, and then, took a step closer, cocking an eyebrow. “Are you really that afraid that I might be right?”

    Ironically enough, that, Eli did not deny. He instead countered with a question of his own. “What makes you think my faith is blind?”

    Summary


    In cauda venenum:
    The poison is in the tail. This can be said of an account that proceeds gently, but turns vicious towards the end.

    It isn’t often that Felix notices someone before they notice him, but Eddie the American starts out as somewhat of an exception.

    Summary

    It’s not often Felix considers drowning himself.

    The peculiar thing is that the urge only ever seems to strike him when he’s in the bath.
