Summary
Essek Thelyss opened a cat café in the Empire to spite his mother. That much had been the basis of his move. Changing from being the first son to a ruling den of the Dynasty, to waking up at 4am to ensure that the baked goods were ready to go in ovens, and the cats had enough play and treats before customers came in.
There was just this one customer who visited every day that kept catching his eye, although they didnt speak too much to one another.
He wanted to rectify that, somehow.Bookmarked by Realia

After their first kiss, Aloy can't convince herself to leave yet, so she decides to stay one more night to celebrate with Seyka. Mercifully this doesn't involve bilge blaze or other people, but Seyka does surprise her with a meal and a gift. Without anything trying to kill them, they have a chance to talk which leads to Aloy sharing more about herself than she intends. Also more kissing since once definitely isn't enough.

Summary
Caleb should go back inside.
Caleb should stand up, go back inside, and forget that he saw anything curled up in the filthy alleyway behind his building. Stay out of trouble. Things die all the time.
When he lays two fingers at the vampire’s neck, its skin is chill as the wet cobblestones. He can just feel the tiny rise and fall of its ribcage.
Damnit.

Caleb tells himself it’s just a distraction.
But he keeps coming back.

Caleb Widogast was a man of simple needs. All he required to be happy was a roof over his head, the company of his best friend and roommate, and constant intellectual stimulation. So he bought an old house. It seemed like a good idea at the time.

Summary
In the handful of months that have gone of Essek's first semester at Tidepeak University he's managed to create quite the reputation for himself. His perfect score at the entrance exam already offering some aid in that, plus the perk of rooming by himself in the dorms.
That is until a human man by the name Caleb Widogast seems intent to slot himself into his otherwise mostly solitary world. If not for his intelligence and talent Essek would have outright refused- or is it perhaps the warmth, openness and complexity that makes him want to keep Caleb around?
