Summary
Wriothesley grabbed onto his shoulders and exclaimed with a voice full of panic; “Neuvillette! What’s going on?!”
This time, Neuvillette couldn’t stop the whimper that escaped his lips, but the embarrassing sound wasn’t caused by the pain he felt but because of the sensation of Wriothesley’s warm hands holding him. He had to stop the desire to lean into the duke, to be wrapped in his embrace. He couldn’t believe he was having these inappropriate urges right now. It had never happened to him before, and it was terrifying.
“I... I don't know what's happening to me,” said the Iudex, pain lacing his voice.
“Guards!!” yelled Wriothesley, loud enough to be heard from outside his office.

A month after the prophecy, Neuvillette experiences unusual changes, leaving him vulnerable in the middle of the Fortress of Meropide. Fortunately, Wriothesley is there to provide him with a safe shelter. As long as the duke can control his own nature as an Alpha, that is.

Summary
Neuvillette continued, his speech mannerly, "I am glad our meeting went smoothly. Thank you for your time, I will be taking my leave now." He rose from his seat. Perhaps if he left the Duke's office quickly enough he could evade whatever the other man was planning and—
“Did you really think I’d let you slip out so easily, Neuvillette?” drawled Wriothesley in his signature ‘let’s play a game; spoiler alert, I’ll win’ tone.

Summary
“Within reason,” Chief Justice Neuvillette adds, giving Wriothesley another amused smile.
Wriothesley shifts his weight between his feet, feeling heat pool in his stomach.
“If you need anything, Your Grace, don’t hesitate to write,” Neuvillette says, his voice quiet but firm. "I may not always respond immediately, but rest assured I will see your requests.”

At first, the letters are only business-related before gradually turning into something more. Strangers to friends to lovers. Now with bonus Neuvillette POV epilogues. Complete.

Summary
"You have nowhere to go?”
“I don’t know,” Neuvillette repeats, progressively more frustrated at his inability to think, “I’ll go somewhere… anywhere,” he attempts, “You may leave me here—”
“Celestia; were you always this stubborn?” Wriothesley grumbles, “Is Meropide included in this somewhere, anywhere? If all you need is a week off, as long as you don’t complain about the cafeteria food, you can stay with me.”
Neuvillette thinks of his heat as a burden that he must hide and carry alone. He finds himself struggling to keep his secret while sheltered by Duke Wriothesley.
Meanwhile, Wriothesley just wants to get through the weirdest week of his life without going irreversibly insane.

Summary
Meanwhile, Blade is studying every twitch of his fingers, each time his eyes flit to him and lose themselves back inside the room. He watches a man run so many unsaid thoughts at once he reminds him of a fuming kettle. The Imbibitor Lunae he knows wouldn't be so indecisive, so sheepish. But Dan Feng has changed, hasn't he?
He uncrossed his arms and stepped forward, "Dan Heng," it's not venom what drips from his mouth when he says his name, though it's nothing less dangerous, "What do you want?"
Or: Dan Heng and Blade want to fuck but they don't know how to make it happen. Somehow, they make it happen.
