Summary
He’s a boy hiding in a closet, temporarily safe from the men who will inevitably tie his ankles to the bedframe until they pull into harbor somewhere at the bottom of Africa. He’s a monster who killed a paralegal in cold blood eight hours ago. He’s five hundred years old. He’s fourteen, maybe— they guess his age instead of asking at the auction. It doesn’t take long for Arun to forget all the things he used to know about himself, to be reliant upon the slavers’ incomplete records for his last name, his birthday, the name of his village.
They don’t pass this information on to the brothel owner. The next time he loses it, he can’t get it back.
[Armand has a nightmare. It sticks around when he wakes up. Louis talks him down.]

Summary
“Alexander Hamilton! I’m at your service, sir!”
Aaron looks at the hand and doesn’t take it. His hands are safely in his pocket, but he’d taken off his gloves, and he is not particularly in the mood to feel the single most consequential juncture of a stranger’s life.
Alexander is still grinning at him, and the moment is stretching on, and he refuses to put his hand down, and Aaron has about half a second before this staring contest verges beyond the mere impolite and into the territory of heavy, awkward weight and scattered excuses—and before he can think better of it, Aaron takes Alexander’s hand.

Summary
“I could never understand it,” Louis was saying, his arm around Armand’s shoulders. “After everything that Magnus did to him, why he would keep his money, use it. How did that make it anything but worse, having been essentially paid for—“
Armand could not quite keep the snort of disbelief from escaping. “Spoken like a true pimp.”
