Summary
Keith could feel his glamor flickering. There were sounds of a fight, but they sounded far away. He went limp in the hold on him, his vision tunneling. Keith could hear the pained grunts of the Paladins as they were subdued.
“Prince Lotor wants his pet returned to him. It's been far too long.”
Hands pried his mouth open, a foul liquid dumped down his throat. The familiar taste had his eyes widening, pupils slitting.
Damn this, and damn them .
He let his glamor slip, the furious roar that tore from his throat shook the forest.
Keith was not going back there, and he would die fighting for his freedom.

Summary
“You’re very good,” a voice behind him rumbled, as Keith finished his training simulation and, panting, got back to his feet.
He turned, looked up. And up. This Galra was big even for a Galra. Absently Keith noted the scar across the bridge of his nose, the right arm, black instead of purple, that looked perfectly alive and functional, but not quite...natural. The Galra's ears were up and forward, all his attention squarely on Keith.
“Thanks,” Keith said.
“I’m Shiro.” He held out his hand.
Or: Galra!Shiro courts Keith, who definitely likes him back. It just takes a minute.

Summary
Life hadn’t given Keith much, but what he had he fought for. Gone were the days he struggled to survive. Gone were the late night distractions bound in rope. It was supposed to be what he wanted.
But when a past he thought he’d left behind comes back to haunt him he’s pulled into an underworld darker than he could’ve imagined.
And that’s not even including the thing that stalks him.

Summary
Keith gets kicked out of art school with little to his name and even less of a plan. He manages to find a job and place to sleep, and even shady side gig to make ends meet. It gets him through the day, but exhaustion soaks him to the bone.
But there's a handsome man with a coffee and just the right song to keep him going and he's the only thing Keith can think about - even though it only leaves him feeling more lost and confused.
--
Track 7: A guitar riff like a whip snapped through the air, like it was trying to call him specifically. Keith recognized it in notes, and his stiletto tapped in time with the drumsticks all on its own. The Shiro-infected smile still on his face stretched so far it made his checks burn. Keith couldn’t tame it if he wanted to. He knew Shiro was grinning just like him and just the idea, the photo negative of Shiro’s smile branded into his mind, left him eager for it.
Shiro tried to snuff his smile by biting his bottom lip, his face flush with boyish charm. He couldn’t hold it long breaking out into a smile, all teeth.
“It’s your song.”
