    Summary

    Phainon bathes alone, as a matter of necessity and discretion. But when Aglaea sentences him to share a bath with Mydei after they cause a commotion, Phainon realizes he's not the only man of his kind. Prince Mydei, his annoyingly attractive rival and sparring partner, has more in common with him than he imagined, and it pushes them closer together than ever.

    (Aglaea, of course, knows all of this. She suspects, too, what will happen when she sends them on a mission to Aidonia in the dead of winter.

    But really, what's a demigoddess of Romance good for, if not guiding her lonely proteges into increasingly intimate situations until they finally admit their feelings for each other?)

    Summary

    mydeimos the undying has killed king eurypon. in a moment of weakness, he agrees to lead his war-torn country and take up the mantle of 'prince'.

    it is a title he reviles. he wants nothing more than to leave with hephaestion, to disappear into the corners of the world. but eurypon's rule has made it impossible for kremnoans to be accepted anywhere else. in a desperate bid for allies and escape, he writes to the democratic republic of okhema.

    the lady goldweaver sends her deliverer, to judge whether mydei is different than his forefathers. but the deliverer bears his own hatred and secrets, and what he wants from mydei is little more than his death.

    Summary

    His teeth press, little by little — a morsel found that if he surged forward for to enjoy he could crush between his molars — against the soft, barebellied offering before him with reverence that borders on prayer until he can feel the give, the real imprint, claim, mark of his presence on Mydei’s skin. Instinct and desire entwined. To bite is also to touch in a way, isn’t it?

    There are fingers curled in the collar of his coat threatening to wrench him away from Mydei’s being. “Phainon,” it’s a growling roll of his name, a low warning that sends heat down Phainon’s spine, mouth curling at the edge as he curls his fingers around the edge of Mydei’s pauldron, a wrestle of who can keep who where. “I thought such tactics were beneath you.” It’s a scoff, and Phainon can feel the formation of the words beneath his teeth, almost against his tongue, all as it accompanies a twitch to Mydei’s posture, a shift to the stabilization of his leg from an all too fleeting moment of weakness. 

    One of their daily scuffles acts as a bit of an awakening for Phainon.

    Summary

    Phainon gave Mydei a wooden box.

    He eyed it suspiciously. He just sat up from his breakfast, intending to head to the palace to wash up when the Deliverer bumped into him, a strange light in his eyes. The voices of scholars starting their morning debates sounded in the distance.

    It didn’t look unusual. It had simple decorative engravings on the sides, a plain, dark wood. He unclasped the lid, raising it with his first knuckle.

    From the limited view, he saw an extremely thick and long glass ‘instrument’, which lay on a bed of red silk.
