Summary
Verso could use a fake boyfriend to get his mother off his back.
Sciel introduces Gustave.
They agree on a mutually beneficial arrangement.It's supposed to be simple—hold hands, attend events together, survive his family, and be convincing enough.
They're pretending.
They're somehow excellent at pretending—and also terrible at it.
They promise to keep things simple.
Then immediately do the emotional equivalent of lighting the rulebook on fire.Somewhere between "practice," an ungodly late night phone call, and the catastrophic one‑bed situation, the line between fake and real quietly packs its bags and leaves.

Summary
Viktor knew how he looked. With his sharp angles and hollowed cheeks and colt-like limbs, he was a serpentine god with all his alabaster beauty.
The nobles whispered about it. The investors watched Viktor move, fascination warring with discomfort. The Council scoffed at the idea of a Zaunite on their board—until they saw him.
Exotic. Enthralling. An exquisite thing to be coveted for themselves.
Viktor had once despised it.
Despised the way they stared, the way their fascination was always tinged with something possessive, as if he were a rare specimen on display. Loathed the murmurs in the Academy halls, the furtive glances that dogged him everywhere he went.
Now?
Now, he used it.
If they should lust after him, they did so at their own peril.
Desire was a fundamental human weakness. A distraction. A vulnerability. And if Jayce Talis was to prove useful, then Viktor would use every weakness he had.

Summary
Jayce works on making Viktor’s first outer leg brace. There's a certain way that he holds Viktor’s leg as he makes the measurements, fastens the straps, secures the screws, that makes Viktor feel… something. Something that scares him, because what does Jayce have to gain from this?
