    Summary

    Viktor pulled down the collar of his sweater.

    Jayce stopped laughing. “Did I…”

    Viktor fixed his collar back to hide the blotchy red skin.

    “Why didn’t you wake me?” Jayce exclaimed, reaching out to grab Viktor’s arm.

    Viktor didn’t shrug Jayce off entirely, but resumed his intense interest in the discarded prototypes, “I thought you were awake,” he said quietly. His ears had turned a ghastly shade of pink, nearly mirroring the myriad of bites on his neck.

    Summary

    Viktor knew how he looked. With his sharp angles and hollowed cheeks and colt-like limbs, he was a serpentine god with all his alabaster beauty.

    The nobles whispered about it. The investors watched Viktor move, fascination warring with discomfort. The Council scoffed at the idea of a Zaunite on their board—until they saw him.

    Exotic. Enthralling. An exquisite thing to be coveted for themselves.

    Viktor had once despised it.

    Despised the way they stared, the way their fascination was always tinged with something possessive, as if he were a rare specimen on display. Loathed the murmurs in the Academy halls, the furtive glances that dogged him everywhere he went.

    Now?

    Now, he used it.

    If they should lust after him, they did so at their own peril.

    Desire was a fundamental human weakness. A distraction. A vulnerability. And if Jayce Talis was to prove useful, then Viktor would use every weakness he had.

    Or: Councillor Viktor, the fic.

    Summary

    "What have we here?"

    "It's nothing, really, I just—"

    The cover features a quaint illustration of two men standing in front of what appears to be a needlessly complex and completely nonsensical chemistry setup. They have their backs to the viewer. The taller man has his hand in the other's back pocket.

    "Advanced Chemistry," Viktor mumbles, reading the title out as his fingertips dance lightly over the raised letters embossed into the flexible cover, "I didn't realize you read romance."

    "I don't," Jayce argues, his tone and posture defensive, but as Viktor raises a skeptical brow in his partner's direction, he seems to realize the error in his words, "Well, not usually."

     

    -or- Viktor catches Jayce reading a smutty romance novel, but there's more to this story than either of them realizes.

    Summary

    Jayce has a secret: he writes steamy fiction under the name “Forgeheart.”
    Viktor finds the manuscript and, against his better judgment, becomes emotionally invested.
    What he doesn’t expect is that he’s very clearly the love interest—and Jayce is very bad at being subtle.

    Summary

    "I'm not going to sit around and do nothing while you suffer, V," Jayce says simply, shrugging his shoulders and shaking his head like there is no other option. Because there isn't. Not really. "It's not happening. So, either you let me help you, or I'm finding where your doctor lives and dragging you over there right now." Folding his arms over his chest, Jayce stares down at a frowning Viktor, his lower lip plush and pouting the way it always does when he's annoyed at his partner. Jayce shrugs again. "Your choice."

    Viktor's eyes narrow and for a moment, Jayce wonders if perhaps that sharp honey stare is more dangerous than any laser they could ever design, boring into him with the heat of a bright burning star.

    "You are a colossal pain in the ass, Jayce Talis."
