    Summary

    In order to kill two birds with one stone, Dirk has locked himself and Jake inside a meta-narrative construct so he can achieve two goals: killing his ex and ensuring that his story can continue without end for eternity. The problem is that he must rely on himself to follow that path in the woods and slay his ex- without deviating from his plans. He has no idea that this is a love story.

    Summary

    [You’d thought adventuring through dangerous jungles and eating far too many close-to-raw fish and the likes would’ve made your immune system, well, immune to anything like a cold, but your nose feels like it’s going to explode and leave a trail of snot across whatever surface it ends up on.]

    Or; Jake and Dirk getting sick and taking care of each other.

    Summary

    After over a decade of warring with the ever-expanding Prospitian Empire, the weakened and exhausted Kingdom of Derse is forced to bend the knee and surrender to being annexed by the Empire. Now subsumed in its nearly pan-continental rule, the Dersite royal family is forced to leave the only home they've ever known and stay in the Imperial palace in Prospit's capital to begin negotiations for their peace treaty, until terms are settled and the Empire is assured that Derse won’t rebel.

    To the Derse Crown Prince’s surprise, “negotiations” also included an arrangement for him to marry the Duke of the English Isles. Not even Prospit’s own heir to the throne, Crown Princess Jane Crocker—a duke, who really gets under Dirk’s skin in ways he can’t quite explain.

    One final spit in the face from the Empress, but Derse’s prince can’t dare to reject it for fear of the consequences for his family and his nation, whose fate are now carried on the terms and stipulations of this marriage agreement.

    But Dirk was a soldier as well as a prince. He was smart. He would figure out a way through this. He just had to figure out the deal with Duke Jacob Harley first.
