Summary
The Hexgates are ready to go. After four long years, Jayce and Viktor's shared dream is finally materializing. But it does not come cheap. To secure funding for their ambitions project (and Viktor's hopes for improving lives in Zaun), Viktor finds himself entangled with a demanding sponsor who crosses boundaries at every turn. If Viktor can't stand up to the pressure, he'll ruin everything they've worked for. Not to mention his yearning for a partner who feels increasingly out of reach.

Summary
After being transported by the Arcane, Jayce finds himself into the past, with a young and healthy Viktor who does not recognise him but seems to be attracted to him.
This was his chance to love and cherish his partner like he was supposed to. Who cared about the Jayce of this universe? He was he worthy one, the one who deserved to be with him.
Or: no one hates Jayce more than he hates himself.

Summary
“If you don’t come out, I will come get you.”
Hesitantly, Viktor turns and peeks behind the tree. A tall, muscular man with dark hair reaching past his ears and a full beard is standing ten feet away. He’s wet, only wearing a pair of linen pants, clearly just having gotten out of the waterfall’s pool. The pants don't leave much to the imagination and Viktor can’t help it, he knows a beautiful man when he sees one, so his eyes wander for just a moment.
“You’re a witch.” It’s not a question, the man states it as a fact, seeming to either not notice or not care that Viktor was blatantly checking him out.
“And you’re a werewolf,” Viktor guesses, still seated on the forest floor.
“If you’re here to spy, you’re doing a terrible job.” There’s amusement in the werewolf’s voice, which makes Viktor’s wariness falter.
___
Viktor is a runaway witch, one that King Silco will do anything to get his hands on again. However, Viktor doesn't have many options, so he runs to the closest place possible where Silco can't get him: The Talis Territories. He can only hope he doesn't get eaten by a werewolf while in enemy territory.

Summary
Viktor has never fit the mold of a viking. When he’s forced into dragon training to prepare for leadership, his world collides with that of jayce who’s everything he’s not: bold, reckless, and infuriatingly captivating.
But when Viktor survives a deadly encounter with a mysterious dragon—one no book has ever recorded—he begins to question everything his people believe about the creatures they’ve hunted for generations.
or
All Viktor wanted was to steer clear of Jayce Talis. Instead, he found himself taming a dragon, breaking centuries of bloodshed—and catching feelings he can't afford to feel.

Summary
“Oh, V. I’m so sorry.” Jayce murmured over Viktor’s cries with so much understanding, so much warmth and so much gentleness. “So, so sorry.”
Viktor sobbed as he gripped Jayce’s wrist tightly. It must have been painful, he was ruining yet another piece of Jayce’s clothing with his snot and his tears, but Jayce didn’t complain. He just held him, kissed his nose, pressed his forehead against his.
And Viktor held on as if his life depended on it. Otherwise, Viktor felt like if he let go of this man, he would fall into the pit of darkness that threatened to swallow him whole. Right then, he realized that Jayce was his anchor, no matter how Viktor felt about it. No matter if it made him a huge coward, a failure, a traitor. He couldn’t, ever, let go of Jayce Talis.
OR
After losing everything in a war between Piltover and Zaun, Viktor creates an anomaly and tries to go back in time. Only, he miscalculates slightly and ends up instead in another timeline, where he meets Jayce Talis, a man proclaiming to be his meant-to-be partner.
Viktor didn’t ask for any of it, but he will get it all anyway.
