    Summary

    "You're just looking for a fight."

    "Maybe I am. I'd like to bloody myself with you."

    This thing between them—it had only just started, but Paul knew a game when it was set out before him. He liked games.


    Under imperial law, the Atreides are required to hold court for the Harkonnens after the official surrender of Arrakis. Paul is immediately intrigued by the second in line for the throne, Feyd-Rautha, and it doesn't take long before the two are colliding, stealing away to hiss over cracked ribs and covetous breaths.

    Summary

    In the treacherous depths of Harkonnen captivity, Paul takes another route to becoming the Kwisatz Haderach, dragging another along the way.

    Summary

    Feyd-Rautha opened the door and walked inside. The breeder tensed. His lithe body coiled tightly, same as the sidewinder snakes that danced over the dunes, and he inhaled sharply. Feyd took measured steps forward. With each inch closer, the captured man, his newest acquisition, went more and more rigid.

    “Joe said you’re a breeder,” Feyd said, sliding his gaze across the man’s body. “Don’t look like one, though.”

    “I’m not anyone’s anything,” he snapped, biting at the air.

    Feyd quirked his head. A smile tugged at the corners of his mouth. “Brave,” he rasped, drawing the word out. “But I’m afraid you’re mine now, darlin’. And I’d like to know what kind of gift I’ve been given.”

    Summary

    Before he was named Harkonnen and long before he was inducted as Na-Baron, he was Feyd-Rautha Rabban, the unimportant second son of an unimportant Count ruling over an unimportant fiefdom. The History of Empire would remember him as the most prolific killer in human history.

    At the center of Imperial power, he would encounter another who he was inextricably drawn to. A boy with green eyes and a hawk as his heraldry. A boy that challenged Feyd at every step.

    It would be the first but unfortunately not be the last time Feyd-Rautha met Paul Atreides. Were the currents of time kinder, their relation would have ended after that singular meeting. But theirs was a union ten thousand years in the making. The shackles of fate are not quite so easy to break and the Known Universe bled for it.

    Or, Feyd is down bad for Paul, Paul is equally obsessed, and everyone else suffers.

    Summary

    It was spring on Arrakis. The heat wasn’t even close to what it’d reach in a month or two. Feyd tugged open the button on his shirt. Burnt wind met his skin and he thought of Paul Atreides spitting hot in an argument. Whenever the duke returned, he’d bring thunder with him.

    Summary

    “You would’ve been a prize,” Feyd said. He drew back, hovering above Paul. Their noses brushed. When Feyd spoke again, his raspy voice hummed against Paul’s mouth. “If the Bene Gesserit would’ve had their way, if you’d been mine, Giedi Prime would’ve called you god and Arrakis would’ve called our child messiah.”

    “And what would you have called me?” Paul asked.

    Summary

     

    Lady Jessica, the royal concubine of Duke Leto and wife in all but name, bore her first child on January 1st, 10175. The Bene Gesserit were pleased with the result and considered Lady Jessica’s mission complete. But there was a great secret that House Atreides held during these first fragile years of the child’s life: though no one knew it at the time, Muad’dib Atreides had been brought into this world. The name Muad’dib was born with has been stricken from the interstellar record, and not a single scholar in present day knows what Duke Leto and Lady Jessica originally selected. What we do know is that by age three, Leto and Jessica started referring to Muad’dib as Paul.

     

    By the time Muad’dib turned five years of age, the Bene Gesserit knew that they had been fooled. 

     

    — From “Manual of Muad’dib” by the Princess Irulan

     

    AFAB Paul Atreides is forced to wed Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen after centuries of careful breeding by the Bene Gesserit falls into place.

    Summary

    Paul can feel himself hyperventilating, mind spinning from the sheer implications of everything he has just heard.

    “The Reverent Mother instructed me explicitly. We were to let him touch you. It was a curious sight, the way he held you, almost despite himself…so incongruously gentle for such a brutal creature.” She nearly smiles and Paul shakes with the sudden urge to snarl in her face. “Your fever broke. You settled calm for the first time in weeks.”

    “This is a lie-“

    “You are connected now. A change has been triggered in you and in the Na-Baron Harkonnen as well. The Reverent Mother says it is in your blood. There is no cure for it.”

    The threads the Bene Gesserit weave are intricate and ever enduring, schemes within schemes, contingencies within contingencies.

    Jessica gives birth to a son instead of a daughter despite explicitly given orders. It should have altered the path forced upon her, the sacrifice that was to be made of her child in the hands of a brutal and violent house. Instead her choice triggers a dormant Bene Gesserit gene engineering not witnessed for millennia.
