Summary
Barnabas’ laugh was a blade. “And yet here you are—his precious heir, selling yourself to clean up his mess. Tell me, did Lesage choose you to mock your father’s corpse? Or does he just enjoy watching you degrade yourself?”
Joshua’s voice didn’t waver. “Yes, this is why Dion’s here. To humiliate me. To finish what his father started. ”
After his father's sudden and mysterious death, Joshua found himself abruptly stripped of everything. Determined not to seek refuge with his mother—the very source of his pain—he made the bold choice to become an escort of The Veil.

Summary
Clive, on cloud nine and braincell-free, hit "post" on social media like a man possessed, screaming to the world: "My baby brother Joshua is having a baby!"
Little did he remember that his three-year secret romance with Joshua was so hush-hush, even their pet goldfish didn’t know. Cue the chaos! His friends blew up his DMs with "CONGRATS UNCLE!!!" messages, while business rivals started placing bets on who the "mystery dad" could be—from the mailman to Barnabas, the horse-breeding weirdo who won’t stop spamming him with "stallion bloodline" metaphors. And to make matters even more absurd, Barnabas still hasn’t given up on luring Clive into his bizarre Mythos Initiative, treating this whole paternity guessing game as just another weirdly timed sales pitch.
Clive is now curled in a ball, cringing so hard his spine might snap, while Joshua alternates between cackling and hyperventilating. Flashbacks of their near-caught make-out sessions are looping in his head like a bad rom-com. They’re staring down the barrel of an "explain NOW" storm, and let’s be real—this mess is equal parts hilarious, mortifying, and peak chaotic energy.

“I’m going to fall in love, Clive.”
“What?”
“Yes!” Joshua’s smile sharpened. “With someone handsome. Someone brave.”

Summary
The Archduke bypassed the ornate prologues, the flowery diplomatic pleasantries, and launched into the heart of the matter. "To ensure the enduring strength of our alliance, the Emperor proposes a bond beyond treaties—a union of blood. On behalf of his son, the heir to the Sanbreque Empire, the future Emperor himself, he seeks the hand of the Archduke’s own heir—Clive Rosfield."
Joshua finally mustered the courage to escape his gilded castle prison—only to stumble straight into a chance encounter with Dion. Panicked and a terrible liar, Joshua did the first thing that came to mind: he blurted out his older brother Clive’s name. What a brilliant idea! No trace, no consequence… or so he thought.Turns out that fleeting lie snowballed into a binding political marriage contract, and the Empire now expected “Clive” to honor it. Oops.
Trapped in a royal mess of his own making, Joshua faced an impossible dilemma. With everything on the line, could he finally confess his true feelings to Dion? Would their one chance at happiness be destroyed? And in the end, would love truly conquer all?

Summary
"Clive, you must understand, this isn't just for you," Asta's tone rising with earnest conviction. "It's for Jill. It's for everyone. The Hideaway needs this, you need this, before you leave for the Origin. To see a sweet love sanctified into marriage, to witness the vows…"
Once upon a lifetime ago, long before the weight of the world knew their names, the three of them played a wedding game. Joshua, not entirely grasping the significance of the bride, cried and insisted on taking on that role, for he understood at least that the bride was the most important to the groom, who was played by Clive.
Growing up, Joshua was certain that he had no right or position to object to his beloved brother marrying someone else before their departure, so that Clive wouldn't have any regrets.
The very vow he had treasured as a golden memory now mocked his silent despair—the heartbreaking certainty that his lifelong, hidden pining was destined to remain unrequited.
Or, was it?

Summary
In the wake of Phoenix Gate, Clive fights to keep his brother's throne. For Joshua, it's a trial of loss he cannot keep from repeating. But he will find a way.
“I know,” Joshua repeats, as Clive’s fingers settle deeper in his hair, carding out the apology he can’t make. “I know you have to go. If we lose Rosalith, we lose—” Rosaria, he means to say, but Clive interrupts him.
“—I lose you. There isn’t a place I could send you on Storm safer than this city.” He smiles. “Allow me to do my duty, lord marquess.” The title sounds funny on his lips.
Joshua rises and sorts himself. “I can order you to stay.” He won’t, and he wouldn’t.
Clive’s smile tugs to one side. “You can try.”

Summary
In the aftermath of an Eikon battle between Ifrit and Phoenix, Joshua awakens under the rubble of Phoenix Gate bloody, broken, and without any memory of who he is or what he used to be. With the Phoenix defeated and his own memories lost, a blonde-haired woman with cold eyes deems his survival worthless and hands him over to the Dhalmekian Republic to do with as they please.
It's been 20 years since that fateful day, yet he still knows nothing about who he is. What does he know? He knows his name, though everyone addresses him as Firebird. His blood always runs hot, and he's never felt cold a day in his life. He is as pretty as he is intelligent, and he carries himself with grace which makes him one of the most desired Branded in all of Dhalmekia. He was so desired that he found himself in the service of Hugo Kupka and has kept the man's bed warm for the last 6 years.
He never dared to hope that maybe one day he would get the chance to leave the horrors of his life behind for something better because hope was a cruel thing for Bearers, something far-fetched and unattainable. Or that's what he'd always believed until Dion Lesage came into his life and changed everything he thought he knew.
