    Summary

    “Tell me why you hate talking about soulmates.”

    Percy blanched. “I don’t hate— I have no problem talking about soulmates.”

    “Oh really?” Monty countered, grinning in a way he hoped came off casual and charming, not desperate and tinged with the all too present sentiment of God-I-want-to-kiss-you. “Because from what I’ve noticed, the topic makes you practically squeamish. Might as well tell me why.”

    Summary

    Shockingly enough, it took Monty quite a while to figure out that he was non-binary. He’d like to blame several things for this fact—namely his father, whom he blamed for all things—but the truth was that he was simply too caught up in Not Thinking About It to truly think about it, which was a catch-twenty-two if he’d ever heard one.

     

    In which Monty comes out to his boyfriend as non-binary.

    Summary

    It is indeed early, and I’m treated to a view of a beautiful sunrise across the ocean, my heart jumping slightly in my chest as I see it. I resist the temptation to go back and fetch Monty, knowing the response I’d receive for interrupting his slumber for something that occurs every morning without fail.

    Still, I make a mental note to myself to drag him out of bed to witness this with me at some point before we’re docking in London, where sunrises such as this one are usually hidden behind grey smog.

    Summary

    "And there it is, the question that I can’t answer. I can’t possibly explain this to Monty without giving up the game, because Monty might be oblivious, but he’s far from stupid. How am I supposed to have figured out that I’m demi without actually having fallen for someone? And how am I supposed to pass it off like that someone is anyone other than Monty? I don’t have any other close friends, and we both know it. We’ve only really got each other, or we will, right up until I tell him and scare him off."

    Summary

    "Kissing your best friend at a family wedding is a terrible idea. Kissing your straight best friend while you’re both past-tipsy is an even worse idea.

    So why I’m kissing Percy, I don’t know.

    Maybe because Percy kissed me.

    So perhaps the straight part is debatable.

    But I don’t have time to worry about Percy’s sexuality because he’s pinning me to the door of some ornate bedroom belonging to some distant cousin of mine."

    Summary

    “I don’t understand,” I say instead. “You want…me to handle the beast?”

    My aunt nods. “If you can defend your kingdom from a beast, you are more than fit to rule.”

    “How am I even supposed to do that?”

    “Well, there’s only one way to conquer a beast,” my uncle says as if that’s obvious. “To slay it.”

     

    When a mysterious plague returns to Mevalia, its people are certain that it's the remnants of a curse on their corrupt king from years ago, and the only way to stop it is to slay a beast, the corrupted king's cursed son. They turn to Percy, their prince, to save them. But when Percy finally finds the disgraced prince, he realizes he might not be as beastly as they all once thought, and resolves to find another way to save his people—and maybe the peculiar boy with wings he's starting to befriend.

    Summary

    "Truthfully, Monty hadn’t wanted to come back. But two months out of rehab, the medical bills had started piling up, and his mother finally pulled herself together and decided to leave, but she hadn’t the forethought to get a job or save any money or even try to get a lawyer, and he felt a certain obligation to pay for some of it. And there weren’t nearly as many job offers as the producer thought. When your only redeeming quality is ruined, it’s harder to get on TV. Monty’s never seen a sex symbol who looks like half of his face has been run over by a flaming truck, and there’s only so much makeup artists can do. So here he is, pretending like he’s not begging for his old job back."

    Monty is a professional dancer on TV's 'Nine to Jive' who's only in it for the money. Percy is an indie singer-songwriter who really wasn't even expecting to get picked. They're bad at communicating but good at dancing. Please excuse me while I project.

    On impulse, Monty signs up for the reality show Altarcations. On the show, two strangers are set up by the show's experts and get married without any prior knowledge about the other. In truth, Monty only signed up to spite his father, who had been hounding him to get married for months now. Monty never really expected to be chosen for the show. And he definitely didn't expect to be set up with another man.
