    Summary

    Khaslana arrives late to his matrimony bed.

    He hardly remembers the sham of a marriage ceremony. He isn’t present to accept the transfer of the bride, nor is he present to welcome her into his home. There is no shower of dried fruits and nuts to bless her with fertility and prosperity, only Khaslana’s silent, burning grief.

    Anaxagoras is dead, and with him went the last of Khaslana’s heart.

    Summary

    Khaslana is the youngest son of the Lord Ravagers, a prolific family of assassins - with one unique caveat from the rest. Born with the curse of Irontomb, the day finally arrives where the dormant curse awakens within him. And with it, his new assigned destiny: To hunt down and kill an existence that was only just a rumor - the blessed child of Nous, Anaxagoras.

    But when fate brings them together, Khaslana cannot bring himself to kill him… Or allow anyone else for that matter. A realization that perhaps, the curse had never been dormant at all - and Anaxa, the man he swore to kill, has rekindled the dead flame that is his heart.

    He now has a new purpose of existence that he wishes to take instead. But as they cross paths more often and try to defy their predestined fates, it becomes more apparent. What can be more cruel: the curse inside of him, or his desperation and willingness to go at any lengths to keep the very being he swore to destroy all for himself?

    Summary

    “You're…” ridiculously tall/handsome/in the wrong house please leave.

    “Phainon, hi!” the man himself greets instead, that shy smile he'd had widening into a proud, boyish grin, and Anaxa swears he leans closer in the already small space between them. “Are you dromaslover134?”

    His mouth dries a little, brows tugged together. He's aware Irida can see Phainon all the way from the doorway, her curious head peeking over the headrest. The longer he goes without replying, the more worried Phainon looks, white brows furrowing gently as he cocks his head to the side like a lost pup. “Or—”

    “I am,” Anaxa hisses in an embarrassed whisper, “Anaxagoras. Please don't say my username outloud.”

    Or; when the biggest problem Anaxa has ever faced comes in the form of a four year old with chubby cheeks, the widest eyes he's ever seen, and a seemingly strong conviction to not form any interpersonal relationships, he's got no other option but to trust Phainon—a kindergarten teacher he met through the worst parenting forum he's ever browsed through. Chaos ensues.

    Summary

    Phainon’s excitement for his upcoming proposal to Anaxa is met with a dose of self-hatred as the mirror reflects. Haunted by his past crimes and his ruining of Anaxa, Phainon’s unspoken faults become his nightmare when the cursed engagement ring swaps him with his mirror image: the embodiment of his flaws, Khaslana.

    Anaxa, left with scars of his own to conquer, is met with the fiery, revenge-driven image of his lover, with dwindling strength to fight back with. They’re left to face one another for who they truly are, without pretenses to hold them back; if they don’t accept their ugly truths, the threat of breaking up looms ahead, or worse.
