    Summary

    Dead men rising from their graves? Blood-drinkers who prey on the living by night? All just stories told by superstitious villagers.

    Right?

    When Theon made the promise to his mother, he never expected his quest to lead him to a strange land, where vampires might not be the deadliest monsters he has to contend with.

    Summary

    Robb is not the type to be overcome by urges to rearrange rooms and yet here he is, in the middle of the night, surrounded by the boxes he’s pulled out from under the bed and cramped in by the other furniture while he attempts to pull the heavy bed frame across the room single handedly.

    What’s brought this on? The amorous noises leaking through the paper thin wall to the neighbouring room.

     Robb's flatmate Patrek begins to bring home a guy that has him start to lose his sanity.

    Summary

    The truth of the matter is this, they each know exactly what they are getting themselves into here, and that’s the beauty of it. Robb will have heard enough to know he’s not looking for a commitment, far from it. And Theon isn’t about to cause any risk to him and his marriage by trying to catch him outside of work hours. He’s just a bit of fun. Maybe he’s an experiment. And best of all, he won’t have to deal with any messy aftermath because it goes without saying that this is only sex.

    Prequel to all I want is more and sweet just like frustration. The run up to the initial get together.

    Updated with Robb's POV.

    Summary

    Life is a funny thing. You can be as careful as you want, sensible in everything that you do, live up to both your family’s and society’s expectations and, putting it bluntly, wind up in Robb Stark’s position. That is to say, dead. Not that Robb had exactly been sensible. He had been known to have his lapses in judgement. But the point still stands; if Robb was dead and Theon was still living there was something fundamentally wrong with the world. By all rights, Theon should be in the ground with him, or in some funeral parlour as the case may be. It had been him inviting death, often with open arms.


    He never wanted it like this. That’s all Jon can think every single time he’s needed to make even the smallest of inane decisions. Because somehow he’s found himself in a position where he’s the person in the family people go to for opinions. He’s dreamt of being out of Robb’s shadow, but he’d take a lifetime of darkness if it would bring his brother back. There’s a voice in the back of his mind that tells him this is his fault, that he’s willed it into existence, like it’s a cautionary tale one might tell children. Be careful what you wish for, kids, you might inadvertently put a family member six feet under.

    Summary

    Theon had watched him with wry amusement when he’d broken things off. Or tried to break things off at least. At that point, the fact that they worked together was one of the least of his concerns. What was an illicit secret relationship between coworkers next to an affair? Truth be told, you could barely have called it a relationship. More a series of steamy hookups in which Robb had learnt more about himself than he had in the rest of his other liaisons combined.

     

    He’d given him the same exact look the moment they realised they’d been roped into going on the same work getaway together.
