Summary
“Why, exactly, was I in a room with Damianos, the Prince of fucking Akelios, less than an hour ago?”
“I take it since you’re standing here, that Damianos did not recognize you?”
“How should I know?” Laurent said, turning around and fixing Guion with a bored expression. “He could be calling the papers as we speak. Or posting on social media. Or maybe he went straight to the police.”
---
Laurent had been packaged and sold more times than he could count. Night after night, he met with his clients and pretended everything was fine. No one noticed. No one cared.
Years passed and Laurent pretended everything was fine. Until, quite suddenly, everything changed.

“So,” Damianos says. “Hypothetically. If two people are dating. Two people who both work here. Is that something one or both of them would get fired for?”

Summary
Damen is the worst punishment Auguste could do to him, and so of course he did.
The thought of having to live with Damen until he gets better is smothering. They will have to share a home, Laurent’s home, his safe place, and Laurent cannot say no, because having Damen here is still better than going to the hospital, where he will be at the mercy of all.Bookmarked by Linwood

Summary
Everyone knows something's going on with Laurent, but nobody can quite put a finger on it. Running what's left of their parents' company sure is difficult, but he has uncle Reg to help, doesn't he?
Auguste would give anything to understand. He'd do anything to help his little brother, but their relationship has never been the same, ever since he came back from France with a wife and a kid. One would think your own brother would be happy for you, but that is *not* what's happening.
Instead, the one who's there happens to be an old friend, Damen. He comes with a basket of his own shit to deal with, but he's reliable. And kind-hearted, and fun, and loyal to a fault.
...Laurent seems to hate him with a passion.
