Summary
"Lucanis had told himself that keeping Rook at arm’s length was for her sake. Said it was to protect her from Spite. Maker, he’d been such a fool. Every time, she’d chosen him. And every time, he’d shut the door in her face. Would he ever get another chance to make it right? To choose her the way she’d always chosen him?"
OR
Crows are taught to kill, not to love. But in the quiet spaces between missions, Rook and Lucanis find something they were never trained for, a thread weaving them together in a bond neither can deny. As Spite’s whispers and the world closes in, they must decide whether their connection is a dangerous weakness or the only thing worth fighting for.
Loosely follows in-game events, with original scenes and a telenovela flair.

Summary
Lucanis cleared his throat. Both of them turned, Rook's irritation softening into something warmer when she saw him. The words sat right there—move in with me. Such a simple phrase, yet it felt monumental.
"Lucanis." Viago's eyes held a particularly sinister glint. "Perhaps you have thoughts on Rook's housing situation?"
---
What would later become known among House Dellamorte as "the Maritozzo Incident" began with Lucanis Dellamorte's simple plan: ask Rook to move in with him over coffee and pastries. Unfortunately, no one had warned him that romantic speeches delivered while she was holding a maritozzo might lead to certain... misunderstandings.(can be read as a stand-alone)

Summary
Spite feels it too. What Lucanis feels for Rook. And Spite feels the same. Rook was a small flame at first. A torch in a dark chamber. Now, Rook was a beacon. Bright, blinding light that made Spite feel whole.
---
Frustrated by Lucanis's inability to confess his love for Rook, Spite is determined to take action in his own way—by entering Rook's dreams to tell her himself.(can be read as a stand-alone)

Summary
“So tell me, Rook.” He sets his glass down, the crystal tapping gently against the wood with a soft clink. “Is this the life you chose… or the one you were left with?”
A memory rises, unbidden: the two of them, younger then, hands still unbloodied, lying in a field gone gold in the late summer light. He turns to her and agrees she'd be his queen. Not a dare, not a game, but promise in those ocean blue eyes of his.
---
Rook didn’t marry for love—she married for power, for position, for the illusion of control. But Viago has always seen past illusions. They were raised side by side, sharpened into weapons by the same cruel hands. He knows her ambition by heart, just as she knows his own hunger for power.Loyalty is costly. Desire is a dangerous game. And in the Antivan Crows, it’s poison either way.
For the Viago Week prompt: Talon or King.

Summary
The city sprawls below Lucanis and Rook, a maze of candlelight windows and moonlit canals, the nighttime symphony of distant laughter and lapping water rising up from the streets. But all Rook can focus on is the warmth of him beside her, the steady rhythm of his breathing, and the way her heart is threatening to burst from her chest with everything she can’t begin to say.
---
On a quiet rooftop in Treviso, beneath a sky full of stars, Rook finds herself drawn once again to the one person she knows she shouldn’t fall for. Lucanis follows, as he always does, pretending it’s coincidence— though he feels the pull just as deeply. Between teasing banter, shared memories, and the ache of unspoken feelings, something delicate begins to unravel.(can be read as a stand-alone)

Summary
When Rook is wed to Lucanis Dellamorte—the mysterious but aloof, new First Talon—she can't help but feel there's something strange about him.
Her husband only visits in the darkness of night. Shadows bloom like bloodstains on bedroom walls. Violet eyes and feathered monsters haunt her dreams.
But Rook finds solace in the coming of the sun, the scent of fresh coffee, and a warm, crooked smile.
