Summary
After beating Lucien, the Mighty Nein leave together, and Essek gets sent back home, alone, afraid, and being kept in the dark about the problems his friends are having. However, when he is told that killing the main representative of the city's wishes didn't stop its influence over certain people, he is determined to help.
"Essek is shaking, his carefully built façade slipping away. Caleb touches his wrist, softly, then holds his arm. He keeps using physical contact when Essek stops hiding what he is feeling, and he does not know if the driving force is pity or a wish to manipulate him. Or maybe something else entirely."

Summary
“You know,” Stephen whispers, defeated, but also exasperated.
“Of course I know. It has not been kept a secret.” He considers walking up to Stephen’s sisters and dancing with one of them, as an excuse, but he fears if he did Stephen would leave the ball and not come back. “Congratulations.”
“What for?” Stephen lets out in a hiss. Gabe dares to look up at his face, and sees a frown there.
“For your engagement, of course,” Gabe says. He feels heartbroken as he says it, a cloud of hurt firmly stuck on his throat. “I feel very happy for you.”

Summary
"“No, wait, fuck that,” Beauregard says. “Let me see if I understand. You two had a weird emotional thing in high school where you held hands way too much―”
“We also kissed.”
“What the fuck.” She doesn’t let him answer. “And then you didn’t see each other for some years, and then you saw each other during Christmas and said ‘we can keep fucking, no strings attached, but let’s put our Christmas lights together in a box, I’m sure they won’t get tangled together’. And so you two kept fucking, but only during the holidays."
Essek takes another sip of his shot glass of wine. “Essentially.”"
Maybe visiting his old town is only an excuse Essek uses to see Caleb.

Summary
Caleb invites Astrid and Eadwulf all over to his house. It feels dangerous, like he is throwing care out the window. He knows most of what they know of each other, knows enough to be able to deescalate the situation if needed. He takes a minute to commiserate over the fact that most of his friends are incredibly dangerous people with big protective instincts after he informs Essek, a smile on his face that he hopes will make him look calmer about the dinner than he is.

Summary
A future in which Essek and Caleb work for their respective governments and have, for months, found the time to hook-up each and every time they've met up for political purposes. It's dangerous, and it is not smart, but they've managed to keep it a secret up until now.
“Who in the Dynasty are you fucking?” Astrid asks, cutting to the chase.
She doesn’t actually know who, then. Caleb knows enough about her speech patterns, and about the sharp honesty they’ve decided to practice with each other, to know that she would just tell him to stop if she knew. Caleb raises his eyebrows. “A bold accusation.”Series
