Summary
Heru froze. Set’s hand was in his back pocket in some strange, possessive gesture, but he only gave one chaste kiss near the ear. Closer, he had an underlying smell of something familiar and antique—of winds carrying the scent of spices and sand and the air after harsh rain. His touch was fleeting, and when Heru reached up to touch the skin he had kissed, he was gone.
In the dim lights, he was left with faint annoyance and something else: an emptiness, a hollow spot in his chest, a wanting for something he couldn’t have.
or:
Thousands of years after fighting for Egypt’s throne, Heru is lonely and directionless. So is Set. Meanwhile, Hathor just wants them to stop being idiots.

“We’re... soulmates. I wouldn’t lie to you.”
Set glared. “We are not.”
Heru blinked away tears but more welled up in his eyes. “Do you not feel it? The thread connecting us?”
“Whoever told you about that was lying. There’s no such thing.”
Heru felt his heart and mind break.

The moon was full and bright, peering down at forested hills through a veil of clouds. A rabbit stared back. It huddled under the cover of trees and bush, its stained fur bristling, and for once was not found.
Cautiously, the rabbit shifted, a small heart beating red and mortal in its chest. The forest didn’t stir. But something else did.
It was not just the rabbit and the moon anymore.
A clap of thunder shook the forest as the rabbit ran, and the moon’s tears began to drown the world. -

Summary
“I could devour you,” Samiel says gently, and Jay can feel the heat of his words sinking into his translator. “Won't you let me, pretty human? I'd make it ever so good for you.” His voice is intimate, filthy; that of a lover. Of a predator that has caught its prey.
Or:
Wing Commander Jason Lane is doing his best. He's got a political coup to stop; a peace treaty to negotiate; half a planet out to kill him and - oh yes, Samiel.
Always, Samiel.

Summary
Achilles/Patroclus. When Patroclus, the clumsy son of a disappointed father, is exiled to Phthia for fostering, he feels totally justified in his dislike for the king's son. After all, who could possibly tolerate someone so arrogant, so narcissistic, and so wholly and completely everything that he wants to be? Rated M for later chapters.

Summary
“I remember the taste of your skin,” he says hoarsely, “and the curve of your lips. I remember the way I looked at you in the dying light of the sun. I wanted to tear the galaxy apart with my bare hands and give it to you, if you would only let me keep you. I wanted to live in your heartbeat. In your blood.”
When Hiraeth Terai is sent to kill a whore, he assumes the job will be simple. But Damas Kyrion is not at all the usual type of hetairos, and the secrets he holds could burn planets.
As if that wasn't enough of a problem, there's also the way he seems familiar.
So familiar, in fact, that all Hiraeth wants to do is keep him.
Whether Damas agrees to it, or not.
