Summary
Daniel pays an old friend a visit. But what can the damned really say to the damned?
It was times like these he almost missed the clear boundaries of journalist and subject, predator and prey, man and monster
Now they were as close to being on equal footing as they’d ever be – two lonely monsters tied by a thing that could be friendship, if you squinted.
(the last time they’d been this close, that mouth was swallowing the last throbbing beats of his heart. that mouth was sinking into the meat of his neck and the soft tissue of his mind and the exposed underbelly of his terrible longing. that mouth had drank him down and spat him right back out)

Summary
After a near-decade of bitter silence, Rhaenyra and Alicent share an unexpected reunion in a shadowed alcove. Regret, envy and desire are unveiled as they confront their painful past and uncertain future.
As she hungrily takes in every change in the other woman’s appearance, Alicent wonders how it all went so terribly wrong. To fall out of love would be bearable, but to love and loathe so deeply is untenable — the bittersweet torment threatens to drive her mad.
‘So be it’, she hisses, ‘If I am to be yours, then claim me as your beloved’ — capturing Rhaenyra’s mouth in a searing clash of blood, teeth and tongue.

Summary
Bolt Academy has everything: prestige, affluence, renown. Almost every world leader, CEO, athlete, and have stepped through its doors. Problem is, it’s only for boys. But it’s the only school with the most challenging architecture program in the country. What else is Annabeth Chase supposed to do? Desperate to achieve her dream of becoming an esteemed architect, she cuts off her long curls, binds her chest, and goes by the name of Andy - the newest male student on campus. Now she must travel the dorms, the locker rooms, even the hallways with her secret. It’s smooth sailing, that is until Annabeth’s roommate Percy Jackson - a nationally ranked freestyle swimmer - starts to have feelings for Andy.
Coming to understand his sexual orientation, Percy navigates a campus filled with homophobia and hate crimes, all while every day taking a step closer to competing in the Olympics. Around every corner lies an opportunity for sabotage, and Percy has a target on his back.
But when Percy discovers the secret that Annabeth has been keeping, hard choices must be made and neither are willing to let the other give up on their dreams.
An interpretation of “She’s the Man” and the Korean drama “To the Beautiful You.”

Summary
“I headed Agravain and Mordred off and took their scheme for myself,” Arthur says. There is a pressure in the air like a summer thunderstorm. Something must change. The most beautiful woman and the most beautiful man in all the world are here naked before him, subject to his word and whim, and one misstep after they leave this room might drag either of them out in the light to be torn to pieces. Or both.
Or: Guinevere fucked her way into this problem and she will make Lancelot fuck her way out of it.

Summary
It was an act of appalling, ghastly cruelty that, had Arthur not been so horribly in love with him, he might never have noticed Merlin was a sorcerer.
