    Summary

    A quick flip through of the magazine in question had his cheeks heating immediately; when he got to the centerfold in question, it flipped out to a trifolded image, full spread…

    Of a naked Omega.

    He was, objectively, handsome; you probably had to be, to get a photoshoot with what Shane was quickly realizing was a glorified skin mag. But the thing that caught Shane’s attention was the dark marks that littered the Omega’s skin.

    Shane swallowed hard, unreasonably affected by the image.

    He didn’t want the Omega.

    But he could see the appeal of being him.

    Summary

    The sun was pouring in from the windows, and Ilya was golden in the morning light, all hard lines and smooth shadows. His curls were a little rumpled from the flight. His face was soft, open. He looked smug, and a little expectant, and he settled easily onto the couch when Shane pushed him down.

    It had been over three days since he’d been properly fucked, if they were keeping count. Now, Shane looked at him and wanted, a sharp, twisting thing.

    “I have a surprise for you,” he said, swinging a leg over Ilya and sitting down on his lap.

    Summary

    It was like seeing a ghost. The young man was holding himself so rigidly, hands clasped in front of him. He was smiling very politely at them. But his position was braced for being struck verbally or physically. He was ready for impact. All David could see was Yuna, almost thirty years ago, scared shitless of meeting his parents.

    David hadn’t been scared to meet her dad. David had brought him a good bottle of sake, put on nice clothes and expected to be liked. Watching her with his parents had led him down a research rabbit hole (long before YouTube) about the way kids in the East interacted with their parents vs. the way kids in the West did — the way family and responsibility were viewed. He had been grateful his minor was in psychology because he was dating a complicated woman, and he wanted to marry her someday. Understanding her enough to not step on landmines was step one in the process.

    “Hi,” said Ilya softly.

    “Ilya,” said David with a smile, “it’s great to finally meet you. I’m David.” He held out a hand to shake.

    David Hollander is used to being the steady one in his family. Meeting Ilya is just one more thing to be steady for.

    Summary

    “Surely,” he starts “surely you must know that it was all for you.”

    Shane’s breath catches in his throat but he remains frozen in place.

    “You made me hope, which I had scarcely had the courage to do before, that maybe I did not have to succumb to their cruelty. That something else was worth living for. I’m not losing anything, Shane. I’m choosing.”

    (ie. my regency era au that is really just a reason to have ilya walk through fog like mr. darcy)
