Summary
A protector. A strong, smart, loving brother. A dreamer. A joker. A sacrifice she had never asked for and a loss that had shattered her.
There! She’d found it. The chroma was right there, bright and bountiful and so much closer than she would have thought after all these months. Maelle grasped it and pulled, eyes screwed shut and sweat beading on her brow.
Behind her, Verso made a strangled sound. Monoco clattered to his feet, crying out, and Esquie took to the air calling, “Mon ami!”
-
Maelle brings Gustave back using Verso's chroma.

Summary
“Mark me,” Verso demanded against Gustave’s mouth. “I want to feel it tomorrow.”
Gustave’s eyes flashed. Then his mouth was on Verso’s throat, teeth scraping, biting, and the sharp pain made Verso gasp.
Gustave’s nails raked down Verso’s back, scratching hard enough to draw blood. Marking him, like he wanted . Claiming him.
And Verso loved the violence. Loved the proof that this was real, that Gustave wanted him enough to leave marks.The Fracture Zone is where people are sent to die.
Painters and Writers, enemies for five hundred years, embark on expeditions to reach the Monolith. None survive—until Expedition 33.
Gustave Virlogeux has lost almost everything, and his grief has turned to rage.
Verso Dessendre is already dead inside. The perfect weapon, buried so deep under control he can't remember what feeling looks like.
They've been circling each other for years: enemies on the battlefield, strangers in the dark.
Until one desperate choice binds them in forbidden magic, and suddenly they can't hide anymore.
They'll learn that some connections are stronger than hatred, and that some enemies were never meant to be enemies at all. -

Summary
Gustave dies.
It is a sordid affair, full of sacrifice and pain. There is nothing beautiful about death, Gustave thinks in the fleeting instant before his nerve endings explode all at once in his chest like fireworks. He doesn’t think anymore after that. Screams echo on the granite of the cliff, drowning the furious crashing of the waves below. He doesn’t hear them. He is dead.
(This is not how it ends.)
After his death, Gustave becomes unstuck in time.

They made a promise to each other. One of them didn't take it completely serious, the other knew he wouldn't keep it if it meant leaving her behind.
Or What-if Maelle didn't run in the wrong direction on the Cliffs?

Summary
When the Expedition happens upon the soul shard, they discover that Verso Dessendre is still alive - sort of. The Painters are overjoyed to have their son back, but there's a small problem: Verso can't leave without a physical body.
And lucky for him, his mother has made him the perfect one.
Monoco, however, is sure as FUCK not letting that happen.

Summary
Verso recognizes Gustave at once.
Gustave is standing in a clearing, then, on a continent where he doesn’t have any reason to be. He’s also in the process of losing badly in a fight against a particularly large Cruleur. They’ve not seen each other since the fateful night of the concert. Since the night Verso left Lumière to never come back.
Still, Verso recognizes him at once.

Summary
All Verso could really focus on was the softness of his giant friend’s hands, the way they easily cradled his small human body against his plush body. Keeping him from falling too far into an abyss he most assuredly wouldn't be able to welcome even if he tried — and he has tried so, so many times. Handling him like one of his precious rocks, if he would be so bold to say.

Summary
Gustave's heat is imminent.
The bad news is, he is currently on the Continent, with no suppressants on him and no alphas in sight. Going into heat at this time is as good as signing his death warrant.
The good news is, at least he does get to pick which tree to die underneath.
Nevertheless, he could've sworn that that's what he was in the midst of doing, right before he woke up to an alpha's cock up his arse.

Summary
When Verso decided to rescue Gustave on the cliffs, nothing could have prepared him for the revelations that an adventure with the engineer would bring. While his goal remained the same—to end his torment by destroying the canvas—Gustave's presence at his side would bring its share of surprises. Some amusing, some existential, and others extending beyond the confines of the canvas, where he would learn more about the death of the man who served as his model.

Summary
Gustave survives his encounter with Renoir, all thanks to the help of a mysterious (and handsome) stranger named Verso. While Gustave is grateful, he also remains on guard, uncertain about why Verso has so graciously decided to not only help, but also join their expedition. Driven by curiosity, he chats with the man, determined to find out more.
However, with each conversation, Gustave discovers new and surprising depths to Verso. At the same time, he finds himself being drawn closer, both physically and emotionally, something that is as frightening as it is electrifying.
And when it becomes increasingly clear that Verso feels the same about him, how deep is he willing to fall?

“While we’re asking each other deep, personal, existential questions…”
“Oh, this should be good,” Verso interjects, deflecting like he always does.
Stubborn, unwilling to be baited, Monoco continues. “Have you ever thought about taking a new name?”
