    Summary

    "Jesus Christ, I'm coming—" The door opened and Henry took Capon in. He was in his braies, his wheat-brown hair dishevelled and nettle-green eyes bleary as he squinted, trying to comprehend why Henry was standing in his doorway in the wee hours. "Hal? You look like shit."

    "Did you know?" he asked, breathless.

    "Did I know what?" He leaned against the doorway, bracing himself and letting his arms tense. On another man, Henry might have taken it for a sign of aggression—Hans was just showing off, a toothy grin on his face.

    "Did you fucking know?" he shouted, and Hans quickly went pale.

    "Are you fucking insane? Keep your voice down, you complete barbarian."

    Summary

    For thirty years, Henry has stood at the door as Hans's bodyguard — his sentinel, shadow, protector. His body bears the cost: scars hardened into stone, pain hidden behind silence, devotion carried alone. When Hans discovers the truth, fury and tenderness collide.
