    Summary

    It felt like the hardest thing he’d ever done, stepping towards Damen, helping him from his seat. He had to keep his touch clinical and brief: this demanded the vast majority of his concentration.

    Summary

    Damen's already unpleasant visit to Arles takes a sour turn when he and Laurent get into an argument.

    You’re unfair!” Laurent chokes out, wrapping his hands around Damen’s wrist, much like he did last night. “So what, just because I was –admittedly– a little cruel last night you decided to abandon me before the sun even rises? Do you want me to grovel at your feet? Beg for forgiveness?”

    “I want no such thing,” Damen answers patiently. “You said yourself before we arrived here that our stay was going to last six months at most. We’re almost halfway done. Without me here to distract you, the time will fly and before you know it, we will reunite in our new palace.”

    Laurent’s lower lip wobbles. “You’re willing to stay away from me for that long, then?”

    Damen doesn’t hesitate to answer honestly. “If it will make you stop resenting me, yes.”

    Resent you?! I don’t–”

    “You compared me to your uncle, Laurent.”

    Summary

    “He’s been really sweet, but he just hasn’t… he hasn’t made any kind of move at all and I’m healed enough to have sex by now.” Damen sighs and looks over as three figures stroll through the courtyard.

    It’s Laurent — flanked by Lord Torves and Erasmus, but it looks like he’s almost… flirting? He’s laughing hard at something said by Lord Torves, even giving him a nudge in the side like he’s teasing him.

    “I didn’t think you were the jealous type.”
