Fanfic Rec #39 Damen/Laurent (Captive Prince)
Winger Cupid Painted Blind by Kittendiamore When Laurent's cousin - the soon to be fiancée of King Damianos of Akielos- elopes with her lover, Laurent hatches a plan to avoid a war. Masquerading as his cousin, Laurent must be as politely unlikable as possible to make Damen decide to call off the wedding. Unfortunately, Damianos happens to be one of the most amiable men he's ever met.
Courts, Crowns and A Little Game of Chess by waywardwriter In an attempt to diffuse the rising tensions between Akielos and Vere, Prince Auguste invites a group of Akielon ambassadors to the Veretian court. He expects many things to come out of this visit: trade agreements, festivities and celebrations, and perhaps the emergence of better diplomatic relations between the two nations. What he did not expect, however, was for his younger brother to take an interest in the Crowned Prince of Akielos.AKA: The fic where Laurent is a reserved, bookish, hero-worshipping boy who meets Prince Damianos for the first time.
Paradigm Shift by Just_Another_Day After years of coming to terms with how misplaced his unrequited teenage crush on Damen probably was, Laurent finds that Damen starts actually paying attention to him after all. Laurent's not very good at dealing with the change. (Nor is Damen, for that matter.)
love me tender, love me true by stillwaterseas (phoenixflight) People made certain assumptions, looking at Damen - he was used to it. The broad shoulders, the height. He’d disappointed lovers in the past before he’d learned to make it clear that he liked someone else to take charge in bed. Sometimes Damen just wanted a break from the responsibility and pressure of his job and the rest of his life. He’d never really considered it as a lifestyle thing, except as an occasional jerk-off fantasy. He hadn’t expected to ever meet someone he trusted enough, who was compatible in that way. And then he’d met Laurent.
