Saving someone doesn’t always involve physical strength. Sam doesn’t like gods. They’re arrogant and look at humans as if they’re beneath them, and maybe they are, but Sam has no problem letting them know what he thinks of them. He tries to stay away from them as much as possible, but it’s not always easy, since he works as a bartender at a trendy club. Loki is used to people throwing themselves at him, be they humans or gods. Right now, he has too much on his mind to bother with any of them, what with his family members killing each other. Gods have always brought trouble, and his nephew Baldur’s death isn’t any different. When Loki meets Sam, he can’t stay away, and no matter how much Sam tries to resist, he finds himself falling for the god, something he’d promised himself he’d never do. Things between them are going well, but the same can’t be said for the world around them, especially Loki’s family. Will they be enough to make Sam give up and push Loki away? Or will he be able to hold onto that love and maybe be the unlikely savior Loki needs?

His past influences how he behaves, and it's easier to push everyone away than to allow them in and risk losing them. Duane just left the military and is looking for a new direction.

He steps in, acts as a fake boyfriend, and starts falling for Calum. But Calum's fears run deep, and Duane doesn't know if he belongs in the forest. If those were the only problems, Duane wouldn't doubt they could make it work, but someone in the forest is plotting something, and they might have involved humans. The forest is in danger, as is Calum's heart. Will Calum be able to see beyond his fears? Can Duane convince him they can have their own happily-ever-after?
