Summary
"There was a brief moment in which Chaghan really tried to think about this rationally. He didn’t need to be here. He was perfectly capable of turning, walking away, leaving this room and Altan, and not making the same mistake again. He could see it in his head, saw the scene from a third person perspective, in this way, it almost seemed like a possibility.
But, Chaghan was never going to choose it. If he could, he wouldn’t be here in the first place."
Or, introspection and Chaghan contemplates his relationship with Altan during sex.

Summary
Events take place following episode 158 - Seething Sword.
After her abduction, Lauren figured she knew what pain felt like. But when her desperate attempt to escape interferes with Kieran's rescue and she finds him in a cage next to her, she discovers what true torment is. Even if they escape, what will be left? Can they rectify the cost of their freedom between each other? Within themselves?
Lies in bold
~~"She braced as much as her failing body would allow, knowing the few minutes she had clawed for freedom would be ended by just the flex of a finger.
This is it.
Alone.
In darkness.
It was one of the outcomes she had counted on. She wouldn’t have made it far, but if she died… he would be free. He would have known she fought, and that was comfort enough."

Summary
“I’m sorry, but my answer is no. Someone else might be willing to switch if you ask.”
“I can’t believe—this is unacceptable! I’m going to call the flight attendant over and get this sorted out right now!”
Flustered and cornered, Shane injects his Captain Voice into the conversation. “Ma’am, I understand that you’re upset, but I paid for this seat and am going to stay here. You’ll have to find someone else willing to change places or just fly with the seat you booked. I’m sorry I couldn’t help you.”
She hisses like a goddamn tea kettle, and starts to say, “You are the most selfish man I’ve ever—” when another voice behind her says, “You are blocking my seat. Move.”
Shane and the woman turn to assess the new arrival. It turns out that his seat partner is well above six feet tall, ripped as hell, and knows how to deliver an excellent bitch face. He’s also the hottest man that Shane has ever seen in real life, including a chance run-in with Jensen Ackles at a Stars game.
Or, still!famous Shane meets non!famous Ilya on a cursed flight from Ottawa to Boston and kind of (totally) falls in love with him at first sight (and first chirp)
