Summary
Caleb shakes his head and mind free of his wandering thoughts when they border too close on the things outside the tower for the evening. He’s supposed to be skulking around the halls trying to find his lover (despite knowing exactly where he is by now). The suitor he plays would be housed at a manor such as this if the den accepted to foster him as a political representative, or he would have broken through all types of wards to sneak in said manor at Essek’s request. Either way, he would have no business seeking out an elicit courtship at this time of night under any circumstance other than a gentle beckoning in his ear.
Essek is certainly taking his time to beckon, though.
It leaves Caleb pacing once again, going back and forth mentally over the thoughts of their future, of the supreme act of creation they mean to do, and much more base and heady means of what that creation requires. Ah, fuck. He’s already half hard.

Summary
When champion Xhorhasian figure skater Essek Thelyss shocks fans by abruptly retiring at the peak of his career, he abandons his picture-perfect life in Rhosona and absconds to the coastal city of Nicodranas. After almost a year of isolation, his plans of quiet solitude crumble when a team of rollerskating misfits name him their ‘unofficially-contracted-temporary choreography consultant’.
With nine months until the Wildmount Grand Prix, Essek must somehow navigate his newfound responsibility while clinging to his dignity. It’s all made harder when he finds himself inexplicably drawn to the team’s resident community college professor who seems to have secrets of his own.

Summary
“You would be cold initially, but I know how easily the idea of outraging your handlers could seduce you.” Caleb holds the nape of Essek’s neck and bites into his pulse. “You would be lonely, and hungry.” Caleb places another lush kiss right at his windpipe and adds, “How would you like me to be?”
Essek sighs as his eyes droop. What would have caught his eye during his courting years, separating a suitor after the Thelyss’ firstborn from the rest? Defiant? Direct? He thinks through Caleb’s distracting biting and settles on:
“Mean.”

Essek’s heart clogs his throat, restricts his breath, and swells painfully gazing down at Caleb’s scrunched, red face. He is not beautiful when he cries.

Summary
“Doing this… is it for me, or for you?” Fingers card through Caleb’s hair and scratches the back of his head.
“Can’t it be both?” Caleb dares to rest his cheek against the other’s knee, hands delving into sweeping up and down the back of Essek’s calf. Essek taps the toe of the other boot against Caleb’s thigh before using it to push him backward by the shoulder.
“Either way, there is more work to be done.”
