"Slowly, the girl entered the water as well. She treaded carefully, as if the river would swallowed her whole. She kept staring at Silco's bad eye.
Silco put his palm on it, then turned around to look up at the moon. He was about to tell her how Vander gave it to him when he heard Jinx startle.
"What is that?" She pointed at a dark shapes drifting on the river. Silco squinted his eyes, trying to decipher what he saw. It looked like a person. Dead, obviously."

“Will you spar with me, General?”
Sarcean blinks, head tilting, the dark curtain of his hair slipping over a shoulder. “Are you asking me to play the villain?”
“You already do well enough without being asked,” Anharion teases.

“Do you remember,” James said, languid, his hands on either side of Will’s head, “when you asked me if it hurt?”
Will lay still under him, staring up at him with dark eyes. A sweat-dampened curl lay over his forehead. His mouth was swollen red. “Yes,” he said finally.
“I was tied up at the time,” James went on. Under him, Will made a small sound. “I had to tell the truth. Would you tell me the truth?”

James was able to glimpse a bit of side profile when he turned around with a coffee cup in hand and ready to leave this God forsaken coffee shop. It was enough to realize that the mystery customer was handsome. Especially when he gave James an awkward smile on his way out. There and then James decided he was in love.

“Do enlighten me, Champion,” Sarcean says, lashes fluttering up at him. “How do you choose to describe the Dark General to those brave enough to ask?”
“To others? I tell them that you are cunning, a seducer, more venomous than a viper. You wield your intelligence as a weapon. If your tongue is a cutting blade, then your mind is its whetstone. I tell them that they ought not cross you, for your enemies seldom meet fortune.”
“And here I was worried you would do me a disservice. I’m flattered that you speak so highly—”
“I was not done,” Anharion chides. “That is how I would describe you to others, because others do not know you. And I think you do not wish them to.”

“I was just about to ask if you would help me retire to my chambers. This place is a maze when you’re not in the right headspace.”
“Ask?” says Will. It’s pointed.
“Something like that,” James says. “You’re a gentleman, aren’t you?” This is even more pointed, honed to an edge that has Will’s eyebrows narrowing very slightly, only enough that James notices because he’d been looking for it. Will’s control over himself is impeccable. James wants to take a stone to it and see how much pressure it can withstand before it fragments.
“Something like that,” echoes Will.
James was raised in Sinclair's drug syndicate. Will is the unpredictable drifter who upends the entire organzation.

“Whatever you’re thinking, I don’t actually dream of that,” he says defensively, shoulders slightly hunched and tense. He shoots Will a dirty look, though it quickly softens. Maybe it’s the trick of the night, or something else. “Is he in yours?”
James has never had to specify who he’s talking about. “He’s everywhere,” Will responds, turning his gaze back to the fire. “I can’t get out.”

“You aren’t supposed to be here,” he says, and he finds himself so close to tears that it shocks him, stripping away at the cold seeping through his body. “Nobody was. How did you even find me?”
James says, “Will.” He’s not unaware of the fact that James is slowly walking the both of them away from the ledge, retreating back towards the path. “Will,” James says again, like calling his name isn’t for Will but for himself.
In a house on the edge of the English countryside, Will waits for winter's oblivion to deal its hand. Always and of course, James follows.

Anharion couldn’t quite say how it happened: there were too many similar instances in the past where the same might have occurred. Only that Sarcean started it; Anharion himself remains entirely innocent in the whole ordeal.

The tip of the bottle pointed precisely at Will.
James arched a pale eyebrow and directed the toe of one extended boot towards him. “Two truths and a lie,” he said.
Will nodded, unable to take his eyes off James.
“One: I had toast for breakfast.”
Will felt like he could trace his breath from his throat down to his stomach.
“Two: I’m fucking Simon Crenshaw.”
There was a collective murmur around the circle. Will swallowed, not looking away.
“Three: I am Anharion, reborn, warrior of the Light and enslaved lover to the Dark King.”
