    Summary

    Phaidros is a sailor whose heart belongs more to the sea than any one port, and he's spent his entire life being blown from place to place. But after being falsely accused of a crime in King Minos's court, he finds himself locked away in a labyrinth that he may never escape.

    The halls of Minos's maze are said to be haunted by a fearsome beast, one that feasts on the flesh of men, but Phaidros quickly learns that what is said is not always what is true -- and false accusations may be more common in this kingdom than he'd previously expected.

    Summary

    “Sleepy puppy,” Maciej said with a crooked grin, bouncing on the balls of his feet, eyes gleaming steel-blue. He puckered his lips into a pout. “Was a good idea.”
    Lambert raised an eyebrow, arms crossed. “What was a good idea, kid?”
    Maciej’s grin twisted, almost feral. His form rippled—red-and-black fur flickered along his forearms, claws scraping the air just enough to make Lambert’s jaw tighten. His eyes flashed wild, like a cornered cat daring you.
    “Stabbing three things today. Felt alive,” Maciej said, voice sharp and breathless, feeding off chaos. “Like chasing shadows. Like hunting.”
    He leaned in, whispering, eyes glinting. “Monsters aren’t scary. Boredom is. It eats you inside.”
    Lambert smirked, cautious. “You’re lucky I like crazy.”
    Maciej’s grin stretched too wide, teeth flashing sharp. A short, wild laugh.
    “Lucky me,” he said, voice low. “If I’m dying, it better be quick. Pretty. No whining.”
    Lambert shook his head. “You’re unhinged, kid.”
    Maciej’s eyes flicked—half-cat, half-boy. “Maybe. But boring? That’ll kill us all.”

    Summary

    The Arabic term ya’aburnee (يقبرني) is typically rendered as “you bury me”. It is a declaration of love so strong you hope to die before the person you adore, because you would not bear to live in a world without them.

    In the present day, a doctor named Victor gets a visit from a seemingly immortal being who claims to have known him from another life. The creature seems to be drawn towards Victor by an unexplainable force. And so is Victor towards him.
