Summary
There was snow left on the ground, but you wouldn’t have known it from the temperature. St. Hilarion’s Januaries could be deceptive like that. It was a quiet sort of cold, no terrible storm or ice crunching underfoot, but just as liable to kill you.
Charles would know. After all, he was dying.
***
In one world, Charles dies slowly in the attic of St. Hilarion's, with only the ghost of yet another wronged child for company.
In another, he runs into the woods - and he meets a monster who is not, as it turns out, a monster after all.

Summary
“A deal. You pretend to be my boyfriend for a few weeks, show up at my house, escort me to social functions and such. Your overall person, manner and opinions should be enough to truly scandalise my parents. You will only need to be yourself, only less... charming.”
Charles gave him a bright grin. “You think I’m charming?”
Edwin ignored him. “And I will act all smitten with you. When they offer you the money to break up with me – and rest assured, throwing money at problems is their only way of handling anything – you will take it. I shall be horribly heartbroken to make them feel guilty and any subsequent romantic partner who is a bit more... mellow than you will be quite welcome.”
Charles stared at him, unsure of how he could’ve ever thought of Edwin Payne as innocent. “Damn... you are a conniving little bastard, aren’t you?”-
Charles Rowland's first impression of Edwin Payne can be summerized as privileged, rich and aloof – also incredibly pretty, but that’s besides the point. However, when Edwin presents him with a scheme to piss off his conservative parents and get some money out of them in the process, Charles can’t resist the siren call of causing mayham for some Tories.
