Summary
With a stiff neck and a pounding headache, Kojiro Nanjo sputtered awake, choking on a rose petal he nearly inhaled.
Gagging and spitting, he groggily propped himself up on an elbow and looked around with bleary eyes. The room wasn’t his, but it was massive. So obviously the bed wasn’t his either, but it was also massive and stunk of roses due to the petals scattered liberally over the duvet. Kojiro rolled over onto his back and immediately regretted it; the room spun and he was too hot and why was he still fully dressed and where even was this—
A fresh wave of nausea washed over him as it all came rushing back.
The wedding.
Kojiro gets left at the altar. So he goes on his "honeymoon" by himself.

Reki is running from his past. From memories of a house he was never able to call home and people he was never able to call family.
Langa is running from his future. From the fear of history repeating itself and the terrifying finality of knowledge.

Summary
“What…” Rei gasps, an overheated haze clouding his head. It’s dark. He doesn’t know where he is. He’s in pain and someone’s pinned beneath him. Gun shaking in his hand. Maybe he’s dreaming. Who is he killing?
“Rei,” the target says, voice low and quiet. Hiding fear. “Let go.”
Why hasn’t he fired yet? Who…is this…
Rei’s grip loosens.
“...I know you.”
Rei comes down with a bad flu and Kazuki takes care of him. But fevered delirium and a highly paranoid assassin are a volatile combination. For the first time, Kazuki realizes just how dangerous the man he shares his life with can be.Bookmarked by SwirlsOfEmber
