Summary
Mydei is stuck in a strange state of existence. While most believe him an alpha due to his outward appearance and reputation as a fierce warrior, he has no secondary gender and a limited sense of smell.
Usually, he wouldn’t care and even prefers not having to deal with heats and ruts, but lately, being around Phainon has him feeling off-center. There’s a weird prickling sensation in his nape that won’t go away, and his entire body heats up at even the slightest provocation.
Is he, somehow, growing allergic to Phainon? Is that what this is?
Alternatively, Mydei presents as an omega because of one very oblivious Deliverer and has to deal with the consequences.

Summary
Mydei turns to face him, the puzzle snapping into place.
“And you think I wanted her?” Mydei asks, slowly, unable to conceal his disbelief. “You think I’d choose her as my bedmate?”
Phainon works his hands into fists before releasing them.
“No.” Then, his real answer, or at least one closer to the truth: “I don’t know.” A beat. “Would you?”
for the successful defense of a refugee caravan bound for Okhema, Mydei and Phainon receive an unexpected gift.

Summary
Mydeimos’s smile is sharp as he shrugs. “What’s your name again?”
“Phainon of—” Phainon cuts himself off, looking away. It doesn’t matter where he’s from. Not anymore. “Phainon.”
“Phainon of Nowhere,” Mydeimos says, and those words disembowel Phainon, cutting into his belly and slicing clean across it. “Come to bed with me. We have a show to put on.”
In the midst of an ongoing war between Okhema and Castrum Kremnos, Mydei's mother gifts him Phainon, an Okheman bed slave he neither wants nor needs. But there is more at stake for both Mydei and Phainon: between Gorgo's ploys, Eurypon's plans, and the advancing black tide, they are pulled between a growing desire for each other and the very fate of their world.

Summary
Arranged marriages can be tragic, they can be even more tragic when you both hate each other.
No one told Phainon he would fall in love with the man he was so cruel to.
Nor did they tell him just how deep his love would go for Mydeimos.- Language:

Summary
“Has there really been nobody who catches your eye over the last 2 years?” Mydei asks quietly. Is it a trick of the light or was there… hesitance in those golden eyes?
Phainon squints at him, trying to figure him out. But it’s not like Mydei to be obtuse, the man had always been straightforward, sometimes to an infuriating degree. With Mydei, you can always be sure he only says what he means, so Phainon doesn’t think too much about it when he shakes his head.
“No.”
“Nobody at all?” Mydei asks again.
Phainon, desperate to find love, begs his best friend Mydei to be his dating coach. After all, Mydei is so perfect, his opinion has to be worth his weight in gold, right?
It’s not like he ever had a chance with the man himself anyway.As for Mydei, what’s a guy to do when his best friend, who he’s secretly in love with, asks him for dating advice? Earnestly help while locking away his own feelings, of course.

Summary
Phainon is an uprising race car driver. The fans love him. The media loves him. So everyone is in for a shock when Phainon transfers teams in the post-season. To the worst-performing team, no less. Why?
Nobody will know it's because of the one-night stand turned friends-with-benefits arrangement Phainon has with the team's mechanic, Mydei. Who's really hot. Who also kind of hates him.
Also, Phainon destroys a record everytime he bends Mydei over before the race.

Summary
The shining gold frame towers over the guests observing below, its size nearing the height of the museum's walls. This painting was said to be the grandest art piece there is, belonging to the famous artist "De". One he has painted for his personal exhibition tonight—in fact, it could have been the grandest of all art pieces he has made, but no one understands the occasion.
The title De wrote below the painting was but a simple and single word. "Deliverer", yet stylicized in a foreign text that linguistic experts believe to be the ancient Kremnoan language of the early Castrum Kremnos.
And he—Phainon of Aedes Elysiae, belonging from a town in the outskirts of Okhema City—stands there with a wide eyed gaze and trembling hands. Because that painting is not any ordinary painting.
It looked like him.
Matter of fact, it may just be him.
OR;
Phainon enters a cycle of modern Amphoreus. Everything is oddly familiar yet he can't remember why, except something haunts him in his dreams, forcing him to relive memories he grew to believe may be his.
All is barely well, until a certain secret painter turns out to have the same predicament as he does.

Summary
Mydei’s throat suddenly feels dry when he notices his own reflection.
He lived it, he knows what is happening. And still, it’s a different experience to witness the terror so evident on his twelve-year-old face. His body is littered with injuries, gold smeared everywhere. Blond hair matted against his skull with sweat and blood, snot and tears streaked through his face. The frozen image of him tries to pull away from his captors, the chains of metal shackles pulled taut as he struggles against them.
Mydei feels the phantom tightness around his neck where one of the manacles had been fastened, barely allowing him to breathe.
Phainon and Mydei stand directly between his parents, looming over the miserable image of Mydei in his youth. He forgot how small he used to be, not even reaching their shoulders in his past state.
Phainon's warm palm lands on Mydei’s bare shoulder. “This is too much, we can just—”
Mydei shrugs the hand off himself and activates the shard.
or; Mydei faces the parts of his childhood he thought he left behind

Summary
It’s probably going to go down in history as the worst kiss Steve Harrington ever got, but Eddie doesn’t give a fuck. He isn’t going to get another chance so he’s working with what he’s got. It’s less of a kiss, and more of a slide of lips, wet with blood and tears but he feels Harrington’s grip tighten on the back of his shirt and he pulls back. He reaches up with the hand he can still feel and pushes back a strand of hair that had fallen in Steve’s face, smearing blood along his temple as he does.
“Sorry. Couldn’t die without knowing what that felt like.”

Summary
The thing about demons is that humans almost grasped the thing about demons. Hell's not like an office job, per se: it's more of a pyramid scheme kinda deal. Except, instead of selling herbal supplements, the name of the game is convincing other soon-to-cease-being-people to join you in the eternal hot tub--come on in, the water's fine! You'll only get your face eaten by bears a little bit!
And Bill might not be a good person, but he is a decent employee.
Bill sets out to steal Dipper's soul.
It hits him for the first time, partway through microwaving a second bowl of popcorn, that he has no idea what he's doing anymore.

Summary
Amy caught sight of them, emerging from the small woods that separated Plumfield from Orchard House and the Laurence House. Laurie, starched and straight, his hair a little shorter than the crown of beautiful curls he wore so effortlessly gorgeous in his youth; Jo in a shirt that Amy suspected was Friedrich’s but would never ask, and a long skirt, her hair tucked back at her neck, no longer the halo of rebellion she had in girlhood.

Summary
John's in love. Really in love. That's not new, is it? It's eight whole years "not-new," the raging queer crush he has on Paul. It's getting even harder to ignore. He's just so full of love for people and for Paul all the time, and so he decides to write a new song. It quickly becomes less about all he's loved before, and more about the man he's in love with now. And that's fine, you know, everyone likes a good love song.
It's only gonna be a slight issue if Paul walks in on him pouring out his emotions, but you know what? Screw it. They'll work it out, -- they always do. Plus, as John has always said, you can't control what the world throws at you, but it'll just have to do.
Sometimes he just gets more than he bargained for.
