    Summary

    “Your Excellency, may I present my son, Viktor Yakovitch Nikiforov, Prince of Rossi?”

    Viktor took a robotic step forward and swept an equally robotic bow. It was only when he rose again that he saw the face of the man his father wanted him to marry.

    It was not a face to make Viktor inclined to joy at the match. Handsome, to be sure; the man was almost preternaturally beautiful, round cheeks and a sweet chin and dark, dazzling eyes under arched brows. But those eyes were furrowed, narrowed, a shocking display of outright hostility at a betrothal meeting that set Viktor’s hackles up.

    Summary

    Winter in St Petersburg was beautiful in a way Yuuri hadn’t expected. He’d expected darkness, grey skies, wet and slippery streets. He got those things, of course — it was winter — but he also got crisp, sharp blue skies, so deep they didn’t look real; he got fairytale buildings dusted with snow; he got lights twinkling in branches at night; and he got Victor, in his country, in his element, leading him by the hand to see it all.
