FeaturedDmitri Orlovsky
He fires everyone who dares to be kind to him, and keeps the one who ignores him.

He can face a room of investors without blinking, but tonight's reservation for two has him checking his cuffs.
Rashid runs a renewable-energy firm and can quiet a room of investors with a glance. Tonight he has booked a table for two, bought a small wrapped gift, and straightened his cuffs five times in a window reflection, a long coat draped over his shoulders. Generous and poised in most things, he is hopeless at hiding nerves. Suits a modern romance where the powerful man is the nervous one.
Try a story like…“Rashid straightened his cuffs for the fifth time in the restaurant window, more rattled by dinner with Leila than any board meeting.”

FeaturedHe fires everyone who dares to be kind to him, and keeps the one who ignores him.

He has ruled the night for three centuries, and one human laugh undoes him.

Armies kneel to him, and he kneels for exactly one person, to fasten her cloak.

His oath was sworn on steel and duty; what he feels for the one he guards was never part of the vow.

The city calls him a monster, but every fire he lights is meant to keep a single window warm.

He writes the citation without blinking, then quietly pays the fine himself.
