    Summary

    For a while, Freo and Kaelix are almost convincingly well-adjusted adults about the divorce. They keep their distance, stay civil at parties, and do not, for an entire year, ostensibly make anything worse.

    Which means, of course, that it’s only a matter of time before it does, in fact, get worse. In order:

    1. Agree to star opposite each other in an indie romance film.
    2. Sleep with each other before production starts (vow never to do it again).
    3. Do it again. Repeatedly. With no meaningful attempt to stop.

    Summary

    Seible stands in the doorway, winded, eyes wide.

    “I leave you for what, a little over an hour,” he starts, pointing a finger at Freodore, “and you get engaged to the crown prince?!”

    He freezes.

    Kaelix, seated in the chair by the empty hearth, raises a brow, leaning back into his seat. “Still here, by the way,” he says.

    Summary

    Five years to the day, it finally feels like life’s starting to click into place for Vanta. He’s working on the big projects, people actually return his emails, and he’s developed a respectable ability to feign interest in quarterly reports. He likes to think he’s managed to hold himself to the breakup that took him down this career path being safely tucked in the past, where it belongs.

    So when he runs into Freodore on the set of a movie he's working on too, he tells himself it’s all water under the bridge. Convinced he’s grown into the kind of adult who can make peace and be friends, he tries. He really does. Except Vanta’s still maybe a little more than weak to the gravitational pull of being in Freodore’s orbit, a lot more than he’d like to think.

    Summary

    You close your wrists together, and offer it to him in a gesture that makes it look like you’re a criminal asking to be cuffed.

    “You can,” you say.

    Caleb looks at you, waiting.

    “Do what you want with me,” you declare. “Whatever it is.”

    an equation of give and take.

    Summary

    “What a great plan,” you say. “An unmarked omega in heat in the same house as an unmarked alpha.”

    Caleb stiffens. “I would never harm you.”

    “Then are you hoping I’d ask you for help instead, Colonel?” Your voice turns saccharine. “Oh, won’t you see me through my heat? It hurts so much. I need you so badly, alpha.”

    Caleb takes a step back as you advance on him. His throat bobs. Everything has been made explicit with your words. One: you’re an omega. Two: you’re about to go into heat. And three: if you go any closer to him, if the scent of him gets any stronger, you may just collapse on the spot and weep at his feet.

    “Stop it,” he says hoarsely. “Don’t kid around.”

    the mere acts of biology.
