   Summary

   Mark Bryant had known Oliver Ritz three years. Most of that time, they’d been apart. In fact, the last month had been the most time they’d ever spent together. And yes, they’d had magical artefacts and kidnappings and traumatised college students to deal with. Oh and weird time shit, let’s not forget the weird time shit.

   But, see, the problem was this. He was utterly enthralled by Oliver Ritz. And not in a strictly platonic admiration kind of way. He definitely, absolutely, one hundred per cent wanted to rip his clothes off. Which, Mark thought, left him pretty much fucked, if he was being honest.

   Yes the title is a Lord Byron quote don’t @ me
