    Summary

    Right as Essek prepares to incite action with a word, Bren slowly rises and rights himself with the stillness of a marble statue. He turns. From day to night, the look he gives Essek when his eyes swivel back shoots ice through his bloodstream; it is a look of hot murder. It is a hunger like primeval revenge.

    Bren sets his jaw, eyes darkening. He jabs to the vanity with his chin. “Put it on.”

    Essek swallows. He tests his invisible binds. “Why?”

    Bren’s mouth sharpens into a knife-smile. “Because I want to watch you cry it off.”

    — Echo Bren doms Essek for the first time; everything goes as planned, until it doesn't.

    Summary

    “What, do you think this is my entire plan? A year-long espionage campaign conducted for the sole purpose of seeing the spymaster of this realm in his shirtsleeves? Get over yourself.” Caleb had thought that a trip to an herbalist’s shop had seemed like a perfectly innocuous prospect. Doing so while following Essek through the maze-like alleys and corridors of the Night Market had even seemed like a pleasant way to while away a chilly autumn afternoon. Now, though? Now Essek is sprawled out on the divan in Caleb’s study, looking anxious, flushed, and more than a little feverish. Caleb has to admit: the day’s events have taken a bit of a turn.

    Summary

    “'I have some good news for you.'

    Had the words come from anyone else they would have sounded fewer warning bells, but any time that Deirta Thelyss spoke happily to her eldest son it meant that he was about to experience something truly awful."

    In which Caleb clears debts, Essek learns the meaning of family, and aristocrats get what they deserve.

    This is the requested full Concubine AU version of "Conflict of Interest" where the wizards stay in Rosohna, because your author keeps their promises.
