    Summary

    It'd been two years since Gideon Nav gathered her wine key and her gaming license and escaped The Locked Tomb, a speakeasy-style cocktail bar managed by the hateful Harrowhark Nonagesimus. Now, dealing tables at The Mithraeum Hotel & Casino, things were really looking up. So when Gideon scored a date with the most beautiful showgirl in the Gilded Halls of Ida, the last thing she expected was to wake up married to her old nemesis and former coworker.

    The story starts the night of Gideon's date and alternates between the events leading up to the wedding and the weeks that follow as Gideon tries to navigate life married to someone who claims to want nothing more than to forget she exists.

    Summary

    Calli sets her sights set on the pretty ginger-haired honor student she spots one day at lunch with her friends. The only problem is... They're straight. Or at least they say they are. Follow Calli as she tries to woo the student council president out of the closet while Kiara plays gay chicken with her. The pinkette's best friends, Kronii and Fauna, also start to take notice of Kiara's best friend Mumei, and try for a poly relationship. They say like minds gather, so does that mean Calli's half-sister Bae and Irys might have a thing for each other as well? But aren't they both straight?

    High school is always so confusing...

    Summary

    Before her final year of college, Yang moves into an old house on the edge of campus. Like a puzzle box, the house reveals itself in time – staircases going nowhere, hallways twisting into labyrinthine passages, and a ghost that’s been haunting it for longer than she can remember. Yang and the ghost are drawn together in an August kind of love, sun-soaked and inevitable.

    But summer doesn't last forever. As Yang retreats further from reality, she and the ghost have no choice but to delve deeper into the labyrinth, or find a way out together.

    (a love story)

    Summary

    “One day, the moon will call for you, my little pup. And you won’t be able to resist its pull."

    Ruby, so young and incapable of understanding the reality of what it means to be a werewolf, can only stare up at her mother where she lays curled up in the space of her arms.

    “But don’t be afraid.” Summer brushes a finger down the bridge of her nose, succeeding in making her give up the fight of trying to keep her eyes open. Ruby curls up closer to her with a pleased sound, nuzzling into her chest as her mother swaddles her protectively. “I’ll be here to help you through it, my pup. We all will.”

    On the ushering hands of sleep, consciousness starts to fade bit by bit. Like droplets of rain kissing her skin. Like sparks of her mother’s magic whenever she puts on a light show for them.

    (Like blood spilling from an open wound. Bit by bit by bit.)

    The last thing she hears is an unwavering promise;

    “You won’t ever be alone, my rosebud. Not if I can help it.”

    ...

    Her mother had been right about two things at least. Ruby isn't able to resist the call of the moon...

    And she isn't alone to have to deal through it.

    Because she has Weiss there with her the entire time.

    Summary

    A ragged, heavy breath escapes you. Relief or anguish? You can’t tell, you can’t tell. Tentatively, with your arms wrapped around you, you reach as far as you can until the very tips of your fingers can brush against the stitched-together skin at your shoulder blades.

    Where your wings once were.

    Back before you were banished from the heavens, stripped from all angelic divinity, and forced into the life of a mortal.

    It wasn’t easy. Suddenly going from angel to human. It happened so quickly that you could barely comprehend it all, even years later, but in the deepest part of your heart, though you live with these moments of agony, you don’t regret it.

    How could you?

    You chose this. You chose banishment. You chose to reject divinity.

    You chose Weiss.

    And she chose you.
