    Summary

    “I didn’t keep most of the memories. Other people’s memories. I get flashes of big things, births, deaths. Except about you.”

    Carol feels the confusion slip onto her face. Nervousness creeps up her spine again. “Me?”

    “I know everything that anybody has ever thought about you, Carol. Every memory. Every feeling. Helen. Your ex-girlfriends. Your dentist. It’s like I have a Carol encyclopedia in my head.”

    Carol had thought that she was done experiencing fresh horrors. What a nightmare it is to realize that she is not. “Oh, god.” She says.

    “Oh, god,” Zosia agrees.

    After they manage to break Zosia free of the hive, Zosia and Carol try to navigate the field of landmines that is their relationship.

    Summary

    There, face down on her bed, wrapped in her dark purple comforter and drooling on her memory foam pillow, is a person— a blonde haired person, in smudged lipstick and what looks like a leather jacket, from the tip of the collar Kate sees peeking out from under her blanket.

    So Kate does the logical thing. She has a black belt in five different martial arts. She’s a state champion fencer, and a world champion archer. She takes one look at the potentially dangerous home intruder sleeping in her bed, and she does what any smart person would do. Duh.

    She whispers, “Oh, what the fuck,” turns around, promptly collapses on the couch in the living room, and falls asleep.

     

    OR: Kate is a grad student at NYU. All it takes is a blonde with a habit of breaking and entering to change everything.

    Summary

    She’d slipped up enough times over the last few months—an unwanted hand hold, an attempt to cuddle after sex— to have been reminded on numerous occasions by Yelena that they were just friends. Best friends.

    Best friends with the best of benefits, apparently.

    They were casual.

    Summary

    “Hello, Kate Bishop, you can put the knife down.”

    Kate frowns, tucking the knife closer to her side without thinking. “I’m not holding a knife.”

    “You’re a terrible liar,” Yelena says, head tilted to the side in the most disarming way possible. “My knife is not currently in my hand,” Yelena holds up both hands, palms facing Kate. “See?” She wiggles her fingers and Kate swallows the lump in her throat. “I’m not here to fight or frighten you.”

    Kate scoffs, “you don’t frighten me.”

    “Not today, no.”
