    Summary

    There was no sense in feeling so heartbroken over a man with more lovers than stars in the sky, who was so widely adored he had no reason to remember an insignificant mortal. And yet the god had managed to leave a cavity in his life so deep and unfillable no other man or woman he had been with could ever dream to make up for his absence.

     
    [In which a certain Spartan prince falls head over heels for his godly hookup. Surely there won’t be any deadly consequences.]

    Summary

    Aite let out a nervous laugh. “Of course, Lord Morax, I have coexisted peacefully alongside the Guili Assembly for centuries. I would not dare—”

     

    “But you did,” Morax cut her off, voice soft but imbued with telluric power. Once again, the limestone beneath his feet shivered. “Their dreams were eaten. This is your work. Your mark is plainly on it.”

     

    “Allow me to explain,” Aite said, voice sickly-sweet — just like the stench of overripe fruit that pervaded her hall. “I believe I know how this…mistake…was made.”

     

    “Oh? Then explain.”

     

     

    Xiao first meets Morax when he is still enslaved to his first master. He does not expect kindness, especially not when his goddess puts him forth as the culprit in the massacre of a human settlement on a contested border.

    Morax, though, surprises him.

    Summary

    He couldn’t do it.

    He couldn’t kill him.

    Perhaps Rome would scowl at the name of Phoebus Apollo for the rest of its empire’s reign. Perhaps it would go down in the history books that the mighty lord of the sun was a selfish, entitled coward, unable to kill his lover for the sake of the people’s wellbeing.

    Summary

    "We're setting you up with a billet situation," Fletcher continued. "It's pretty common for first-year players, especially international guys. Gives you a chance to settle in, learn the city, have someone looking out for you."

    "Okay," Ilya said slowly, not entirely sure what a billet was, but not wanting to admit his ignorance.

     He could guess from the context – he’d heard of rookies being assigned to live with older single players, veterans who could show them the ropes. Maybe that was what Fletcher meant. Connors maybe, he was probably a handful of years older than Ilya. Or perhaps Becker. Ilya just hoped it was someone who–

    "You'll be staying with Nikolai Petrov and his family."

    The words hit Ilya like a punch to the gut. For a moment, he forgot how to breathe.

    "Petrov?" he managed, his voice coming out strangled.
    __________________________________________________________________

    The Bears decide that Ilya should be set up with a billet for his first season. The idea of spending a year living with a man that Ilya is sure hates him is completely terrifying. And yet, it ends up being the best thing to ever happen to him.
