    Summary

    “Tell me,” Nicolò says finally. “Why should I go with you, Yusuf Al-Kaysani?”

    Because I have loved you for a millennium, as you have loved me, Joe thinks. Our souls know each other as the ocean knows the moon. We are in constant motion together, the push and the pull, the rise and the fall. One cannot exist without the other.

    Instead, Joe manages a smile he cannot feel. “I have the keys to the car.”

    -

    Something went wrong in Merrick’s lab before Nile arrived with guns blazing. It wasn’t Andy’s bleeding mortality or Booker’s stinging betrayal.

    It was Nicky, and by extension, it was Joe, too.

    (The AU where the final death is not permanent. It’s a reset: it’s another chance. Nine years after Nicky’s final death, the fractured remains of the Old Guard encounter him on a job, and he’s not alone.)

    Summary

    Andy, through time, and the living act of finding a home and family.

    Minoan Crete, circa 1300 BCE

    She'd stayed here too long, perhaps, the first time.

    It's like a shock of cold water, a blade in the back. It's another lesson to learn: she cannot control how she is remembered. She can make lasting change, but she can never stay.

    Summary

    When Joe’s bag gave way, spilling all its contents on the corridor floor, it took every ounce of willpower not to fall on his knees and weep like a child.

    Of course, Hana had finally settled down in her carrier, and she continued to sleep despite the crash of a half dozen cans of baby formula hitting the carpet, so Joe merely blinked back unshed tears and took a deep breath, finding his key and unlocking his flat. He left the door ajar as he carefully put Hana’s carrier on the sofa and quickly went back to retrieve the scattered cans.

    After the tragic passing of his omega sibling, alpha Joe got custody of his newborn niece. Unfortunately, things weren’t progressing as well as they should and now Joe has found himself in dire need of a wet nurse.

    Summary

    "Fanaticism is redoubling your effort when you have forgotten your aim." (George Santayana)

    Nicolo tries desperately to hold to the shattered fragments of belief after his life ends for the first time in Jerusalem.


    “Would Allah wish death on me?”

    At that, Yusuf’s head snaps up. He finds himself staring into Nicolo’s icy eyes.

    And notices that they’re not ice after all. Maybe they were, once. But tonight, Nicolo’s eyes are the ocean -- vast and unknowable, but not unkind.

    “I don’t know,” Yusuf says. “I was taught that Allah was merciful.”

    Nicolo takes a long, dragging breath. “That is where God and Allah differ, then.”

    Summary

    Shivering, Nicky draws in tighter on himself. The room they’re being held in is small, but it’s drafty. The vents keep letting in more bursts of air, and they took Nicky on his evening run. He’s wearing shorts and a T-shirt, and the sweat has long-since become cold and clammy against his skin. He has no real concept of how long they’ve been in here, but he knows it’s been at least three hours. That makes it past midnight. There are goosebumps on his knees.

    To his left, Joe shifts.

    Nicky starts.

    “It’s okay,” Joe says, voice hushed. It’s an improvement over the first hour, when he wouldn’t stop calling for help even though there was clearly no one listening. “We’ll be warmer closer together.”

    Romance novel blurb: Kidnapped together, sons of rival business moguls Joe al-Kaysani and Nicky di Genova find common ground...and maybe more.
