Summary
Fear had descended upon the land and everything hung in the balance. The country was trembling, the government was wavering, peace was teetering on the edge; at the border, the footsteps of war grew louder, while dread lingered in the capital. Everything held its breath, waiting for something—anything—to happen.
And it was then, amidst the silence before the storm, that Laurent fell in love.

Summary
Enguerran turned. “Vere is welcoming its brother.” His voice was careful, balanced on the edge between sarcasm and diplomacy. Even as the words left his mouth, he could feel the shift in the air. Damen inhaled deeply, his chest rising beneath the weight of cold air and restrained fury. His voice was ice wrapped around iron. “The King of Vere,” he said. “Where is our brother?” Enguerran was pale — he’d always been pale, his skin like milk even in summer, when others browned and glowed. He just turned red. Burned. Now, under Damen’s gaze, he felt like he was burning again. “The rumors-” but his voice cracked like thin ice.
“The rumors,” Damen interrupted, “have it that the King is missing.” Enguerran flinched, then nodded. The words tasted like ash, “Aye. The King is missing.” The admission fell like a stone in the silence that followed. Enguerran braced for it — the strike that had to follow.
Damen didn’t raise his voice. He didn’t lift a hand. He only took a single step forward. It was enough. Enguerran stumbled back without thinking. His heart beat like a war drum in his chest, his breath shallow in the freezing air. Damen loomed before him — soaked, furious, silent.And this was only the beginning.

Summary
“Do you remember when you kissed me on the battlements, Damen? I’m sure you could hear the beating of my heart then. I didn’t know what to do, I was so scared. Not of you. I knew you wouldn’t hurt me. I was scared of my reaction to it. I wanted to pull you closer, I wanted to wrap my arms around you and never let you leave.”
What if Kastor's knife cut a little deeper? What if Damen was lying in his bed, pale and weak from the blood loss?
Laurent watches over Damen's sleep and tells him all the things he didn't have the time to say earlier. -

Summary
“Nicaise?” Laurent's voice cracked, disbelief and grief fighting for dominance in his body. It had been months since he and Damen had won and become kings of New Artes. It had been longer even since that fateful day when he had seen the boy's severed head, and had known that he had failed once again. Himself, Aimeric, Nicaise - Children that he couldn't save.
Or: Nicaise survived and shows up at the palace once Laurent is king

Summary
“Listen, Auguste, we’ve been here before. I don’t need this totally overrated, superficial and capitalistic holiday in my life, I don’t need dating, I don’t need romance in my life and I don’t need a man to shove a ridiculously big, totally overpriced bouquet of boring red roses into my arms just so that he can slide into my-”
Laurent never finished his sentence because a ridiculously big and totally overpriced bouquet of boring red roses smacked him in the face. His coffee splashed on the ground, staining his grey coat and his shoes. On instinct, he turned and saw a ridiculously big man with dark curls and dark skin who angrily walked away until he, as if feeling Laurent’s shocked gaze on the back of his head, turned and stopped. His brown eyes widened when he saw the mess on Laurent’s coat and shoes.Laurent hates Valentine's Day, but when a gorgeous man with a dimple in his cheek bumps into him on the street, something changes.

Summary
"Hello, may I help you?" A man, in his early thirties, answers the door.
"Hi, I'm Laurent de Vere," he says, "I heard there was a vacancy for a nanny, and I'd like to apply for the position. Er, Lazar brought me here. He said to ask for Jord.”
“Yes, I’m Jord,” the man says, raising an eyebrow, giving the impression that he thought Laurent was playing a practical joke.
"I brought my resume and everything…" Laurent trails off, handing over the paper.
"Come in and have a seat. I'll bring your resume to Mr. Vallis," the man says, clearly making an effort to keep his face blank, "I'm sure he'd like to interview you himself."
Then, taking the nondescript yellow envelope from Laurent, he mumbles under his breath in a tone so soft that Laurent isn’t sure he’s supposed to hear, “This ought to be good.”

It Only Hurts This Much Right Now (lost in the labyrinth of my mind) by LadyMidnight24

Summary
“You're Laurent deVere, right?” A warm, deep voice interrupts his morning.
Laurent barely spares a glance towards the man speaking. Of course, a glance is all it takes for recognition to spark in his brain. “Well spotted.”
“I’m-”
“Damianos Akielos. I'm aware.” And Laurent was aware. How could he not be when, years ago, the man in front of him was the star player for the hockey team of a rival city. How could he not recognize the man who picked a fight with Auguste in the middle of a game that made it so Auguste can’t get around without some kind of mobility aid now. It's a wonder this brute was ever permitted onto Auguste's team after that savagery.Or: A hockey player!Damen x figure skater!Laurent AU because I was genuinely shocked that i couldnt find more of these when I went looking for them

Summary
A collection of much needed conversations between Laurent and Damen.
The action is set immediately after the end of the third book and could be called contrary to the events told in The Summer Palace. This fic could be treated as a prequel to my fic 'A kingdom and more' but doesn't have to be.
Every chapter will have a note in which I'll explain myself further. -

Summary
Aimeric would do anything for the Regent. The idea of going to another country, to marry a barbarian and potentially kill him, is terrifying. But he will do it, if that's what is wished. He just isn't expecting the man he finds himself betrothed to, the closeness he finds with his guard, or the life and hope he discovers in Akielos.
Nikandros is deep in mourning for the friend he has lost. The marriage Kastor has arranged feels more an insult than kindness, but he is determined to treat his young husband well. His husband is a fighter, which helps, and Nikandros finds he admires one of the guards who has accompanied him.
Jord is just a soldier. As Akielos moves from enemy to ally, his focus is on protecting the young man he is sent to guard. He doesn't anticipate friendship from those he considers his enemy, but he finds it.

Summary
He takes a breath and fixes truly aggrieved eyes on Laurent. “While we investigate, I need you to be away from the Arles Palace."
"What?" Laurent's heart drops, "But--"
"You trust me, don't you, Lo?" Auguste says, urgently, "I need to keep you safe."
"Brother--"
"You are second in line for the throne. If anything has to happen to me, you are the only person I'm willing to entrust with Vere. Uncle would ruin her," he says, softly, in a rush. "I need you safe, and the only place you'll be safe is away from Vere. Away from anybody who can harm you."
"Akielos," Laurent realizes, the answer startlingly clear by Auguste’s tone. “You mean to send me to Akielos.”

Summary
Auguste looked at his little brother. Laurent was thirteen and freshly presented as an Omega. The life of the second prince would certainly become a lot more difficult in the palace. Auguste sighed. Nobody seemed to understand that Laurent was more than the spare prince or, now, the bargaining chip for their father to secure peace with Akielos.
In which Laurent presents as an Omega and his father arranges the marriage to the Akielon crown prince.
