    Summary

    For librarian Lottie “Rook” Ingellvar, the pandemic was not the only darkness that swept over her life in 2020. An act of unbelievable betrayal and violence has left her numb as the world begins to thaw and life returns to normal. Struggling with equilibrium, her boss in special collections proposes to relieve her of her usual duties and set her up with a more flexible job - assisting a professor in his research.

    In the distinguished, older Professor Volkarin, Rook finds a stability she’s never known and an easy charm that soon develops into a roiling, back-breaking crush that threatens to upend the careful walls she’s erected around her heart and body.

    Summary

    “Alright, we have established that you’re the most respectable man I’ve ever met,” she raises one hand to stop him when he wants to protest and carries on, “who would never abuse his position, and that is one of the many reasons why I like you as much as I do. However,” her previously raised hand moves to his collar to straighten the skull pin there, “you might consider indulging my harmless little fantasy.” Rook wraps her fingers around the brass chains held by the skull, and pulls gently, Emmrich following immediately to lean into her. “I promise I’ll make it worth your while, Professor.”

    She watches as his resolve melts away. “You’re a fiend, do you know that?”

    Or: Rook disturbs Emmrich's late night work for other late night activities.
