Summary
What exactly is the point of immortality if you don’t enjoy it? Everyone seems to have missed that memo entirely, too busy drowning in existential gloom to appreciate the simple pleasure of being alive—or undead, whatever.
Daniel had always been very good at enjoying things, especially those that came with sharp teeth and libido-enhancing properties. And now that his place at his maker’s side is finally secure, that he’s chosen and kept and utterly, shamelessly adored, he can go back to the role he was born for: Being a spoiled little brat.

Summary
The servant beside him shifts, uncomfortable with the stillness, the silence. The sign—Mr. Molloy—dangles from his gloved hand, a beacon in the crowd. Armand doesn't acknowledge him. He is focused entirely on the sliding glass doors, on the stream of passengers emerging from baggage claims, on the moment when one of those faces will be his.
He's going to be here, Armand thinks, and the thought is a knife twisting in his chest. At any moment. Walking through those doors.
He has seen Daniel since their departure, of course, though less often in recent years. Or, maybe not less often, just less… up close. Always from a distance; through screens and photographs, from across the street or from a crowd. But not like this. Not close enough to touch, to smell, to look deeply into those beautiful crystal blue eyes.
~~~
Rashid!Armand goes to pick Daniel up from the airport. His beautiful boy might not remember him anymore, but that does not mean Armand's heart doesn't threaten to crack open at the sight of him.Series

Summary
“You must think me an idiot,” Louis said, his voice quiet, almost conversational.
Louis took a step toward him. Then another. Daniel held his ground, his heart hammering, acutely aware in that moment that he was a mortal man standing between two vampires. And one of them was looking at him like he was about to break his diet.
“At the start I thought I must have been imagining it,” Louis continued, his gaze boring into Daniel’s. “The little stolen glances during the interview, the continuous bantering, the way he looked at you,” Louis murmured, almost to himself. “From the very first night. The way he looked at you. I told myself it was nothing. Curiosity. Amusement.” A bitter laugh escaped him.
~~~
It was not the first time Daniel destroyed a marriage, it wasn't even the first time that marriage wasn't his own. It was, however, the first time he’d done it with the full, complicit consent of the husband he was stealing. One way or another he's probably not making it out alive.Series

Summary
Daniel let out a humorless breath. “Can’t believe you fucking shoved me back into the closet,”
A flicker of genuine irritation crossed Armand’s face. “Hardly,” he said, his voice dropping back into its familiar, cool register. He placed the book he was holding on a table with a soft, definitive thud. “Given the sheer number of men I watched you take to cheap motel rooms and parked cars during your marriage, I would say your sexuality, Daniel, proved to be remarkably resilient. It found its way back to its true nature soon enough.”
~~~
In the aftermath of Daniel getting his memories back, he and Armand have 5 difficult conversations while Louis is away in a predictably convenient business meeting (thanks, Armand).Series

Summary
“Months?” The word dropped like a stone in Daniel’s gut.
“Do you think it’s easy?” A flicker of that old frustration surfaced. “Creating an alternative timeline for someone’s life? It is not something you do on an impulse. And it never completely… fits.” He looked away, the muscle in his jaw ticking. “I had to use your drug addiction as an excuse, a blanket explanation for a lot of the defects and gaps I couldn’t make work.”
Oh, so it hadn’t been a crime of passion; it had been a creative project. “You spent months brainwashing me?!”
~~~
Daniel wants his memories back. Armand might be persuaded to help him find his way back to him.Series
