    Summary

    William got to his feet and turned around, prayer book clutched to his chest. Michael was standing in the center of the chapel, obviously just come from sparring practice. He was still wearing his dented cuirass, a leather pauldron on his right shoulder. The moonlight through the stained-glass windows painted him in blue and gold.

    “Forgot to leave your armor behind in the gymnasium?” asked William lightly, skirting around him to set the prayer book back in its tabernacle.

    “Something like that,” said Michael. He stepped out of the shaft of light, joining William at the perimeter of the circular room.

    William closed the ornate wooden door of the tabernacle and turned to face him. “How did you know I’d be here?”

    “I know you,” Michael said simply. I love you, he might as well have said, for the way it sent William’s heart skittering inside his chest.

    Michael has been betrothed to the princess since their infancy. But it’s her brother he really wants.

    Summary

    It’s been seven years since Will Byers vanished from Hawkins for the second time; seven years since he picked up his life, moved across the globe, and finally settled. He had found himself in a small town outside of Dublin with no desire to be anyplace else. He was happy. Ireland was great — beautiful sights, decent weather, and it was far. So, so far.

    But when past feelings bubble from under the surface and start to poison his creative endeavors, he doesn’t think things could get any worse.

    Seeing Mike Wheeler at his local grocery store quickly proves him wrong.
