College student!Sukuna
11:54pm: threeâs a crowd
warnings: 18+ mdni, stalking, trespassing, voyeurism, yandere!sukuna, pervy!sukuna, nonconsensual recording, mentions of panty stealing, mild act of violence, masturbation, not proofread
college student!sukuna had been deathly quiet since shoko squealed about your date with a guy on your course to the rest of the group. everyone was over at gojoâs frat house for drinks, just the âinner circleâ (gojoâs words), to catch up. and for reasons that continue to elude you, your bff thought it would be the funniest thing ever to make you reveal your plans over a stupid game of truth or dare.Â
you couldnât bring yourself to glance at college student!sukuna whilst the group howled and wolf-whistled. perhaps it was because you knew there would be no reason to; he isnât your boyfriend, you owe him nothing. but maybe, just maybe, it was because you werenât brave enough to find the answer to a question you had been asking yourself when you said yes to your classmate.Â
would he care?
it would, undoubtedly, break your heart if he was cheering you on just like everyone else. so, after the events of last night, you go to your date with an excitement that didnât come naturally, like a plastic mask, rigid and cheap. but you enjoy yourself regardless - heâs sweet, kind and cute in a boy-next-door type of way. he makes you laugh, he opens doors and pays for dinner.Â
of course, you donât plan on inviting him up to your apartment, even if shoko had excused herself for the night with a salacious wink, choosing to room with utahime to âcleanseâ themselves from âmale energyâ. but when you make the mistake of viewing gojoâs story just as heâs dropping you off at your door and see that your friendâs at yet another party, you change your mind.Â
because there in the background is college student!sukuna with a girl clinging to his shirt with her leg thrown over his lap and her face buried in his neck. in a flurry of hastily thrown clothes and clumsy clashing of teeth, you wind up in your bed with this boy before you even realise that your front door had been unlocked.Â
college student!sukuna wasnât pleased to hear the news, to say the least. what you hadnât seen was the flex of his jaw, the tick of his brow and the darkening look in his eyes. he decided there and then that he was going to ruin your plans. at first, he figured he could crash your date or spread rumours the guy had an std or a micro-penis. but then he thought he should let the boy take you on a date so you could at least get a free dinner, his girl shouldnât go hungry after all.Â
college student!sukuna chose to distract himself by tagging along with the guys to a sorority party, allowed a girl to touch him up so he could pretend it was him you were with.Â
but then a thought occurred to him; a free dinner might not be all the guy would offer. with a sudden fury, he threw aside the girl whose name he never actually heard, nor asked for, and drove over to your place. he had a spare key made that neither you nor shoko knew about, so he let himself in, planning to sit on the sofa, fists ready to be thrown if someone other than you (or shoko) came through the door.Â
that was he had originally planned.Â
college student!sukuna hadnât intended to be distracted by the realisation that your room would be empty. he was just going to sniff your pillows and rifle through your dirty laundry basket for new material. he hadnât meant to be distracted by a lingerie set hanging in your closet. so when he heard the sudden rush of footsteps he made the split decision to tuck himself away with your clothes, leaving a crack for him to peer through.Â
so there he is, fighting the urge to drag that stupid guy off you and replace him with his own body. he knows for a fact he can make you feel so much better than that loser. guy didnât even bother eating you out, didnât look up from your tits to see if your face is scrunched up from pleasure. certainly doesnât even think to suffocate you with his mouth and tongue or to bend you into different positions to leave you sore all over.Â
youâre only in your bra and your skirtâs pooling over your waist whilst the guy thrusts without any kind of rhythm into you. heâs sweaty and loud, like a pig, and you hate the feeling of his baby-soft, clammy hands on your skin and the high pitched whining in your ear. you find yourself craving rough palms gripping your hips, low growls vibrating through your bones, hard muscles pinning you down to the bed, maybe a hand pressing you into your pillows as you get plowed down with relentless thrusts.Â
why did you let jealousy fuel your actions?
possibly one of the stupidest things youâd ever done.Â
college student!sukuna agrees. he knows youâre regretting it, can tell by the half-hearted moans youâre pushing out, by your limp arms, and by the fact that the guy comes only a couple minutes later. the noticeable annoyance on your face might make him laugh if it isnât for the incessant throbbing in his jeans.Â
it doesnât even occur to him to be worried about what would happen if you found him in your closet with a boner because all he can focus on is your creeping hands teasing your folds before you begin rubbing your clit with a frustrated fervour. you have your phone in your hand, clearly needing visual stimuli to get going.Â
college student!sukuna wishes he could see what youâre looking at, itching to know what sick kinks you have hiding in there and desperate to know if they align with his. your dateâs passed out, snoring away with his dick barely tucked back in, and youâre cupping your tit over the lace as you moan under your breath, desperate to keep quiet.Â
your orgasm is weak, barely there and you hate that gross feeling of bodily fluids and bad decisions catching up to you. eventually, you push yourself up and head into the bathroom to clean up, hoping the guy will leave by the time youâre done. when you come out, youâre pleased to see he is, you donât even care he didnât say bye or thanks, and youâre sure he wonât ever contact you again.Â
thank god.
college student!sukuna left too. snuck out right behind your date and shoved him into a bush from behind before getting into his car to rush back home so he could release the ache in his cock. he almost reached into his jeans to jerk off in time with your hand but decided against it â he didnât want to cum to the sight of you naked with a guy next to you. if you werenât so goddamn hot, his boner would have deflated.Â
no, college student!sukuna wants to cum in his own bed to the recording of you he didnât even realise he took until he was checking the time on his phone and noticed the video still going. guess it was second nature for him to press record as soon as you were remotely vulnerable.Â
and he knows saving his load for this shaky video of you would be so worth it because if he pressed his phone to his ear and turned the volume all the way up, heâd hear the faintest, annoyingly quiet, barely audible whisper of his name leaving your lips.Â
college student!sukuna's heart, and cock, is full of so much love for you, his sweet girl, always thinking of him.Â
you and him are a match made in heaven.Â

The clear water rushes downstream, rippling around your legs as you step toward the bank and the soft grass. The sunlight filtering through the forest canopy makes the surface of the stream sparkle like glitter. But, you. You are the star of the scene.Â
You glow like youâre a creature drawn from the sun and the soil, from the woods and the water. Crystal-clear droplets of water race along your skin, rolling over your curves and dripping back into the current to flow down, down, down to another body of water.Â
You appear meditative, attuned to nature's tranquility, disregarding the universe's relentlessly unjust chaos. The ugliness and the violence. The balance. The dark.Â
Joel lurks in the trees, waiting to make his presence known. Holding out for an opportunity to strike. He creeps out of the treeline with deft precision, like a shadow. Youâre only partially dressed, still bent over your bag, searching for something when he gets close. Â
âDonât think youâll need to worry about that anymore.âÂ
Heâs not loud, but his gruff voice still disturbs the serenity. A jarring interruption to the leaves rustling in the breeze and the birdsongs echoing above. You take one long breath before you look him in the eye. Dropping your bag, you raise your hands in surrender.Â
You have nothing. No weapons, no defense, no chance of getting far if heâs tracked you down already. âHow did you find me?â You square your shoulders, standing your ground despite your disadvantaged position.Â
âItâs my job,â he replies simply.Â
He circles around you slowly, appraising you, eyes roaming over your exposed skin. Your tight shorts and thin undershirt donât leave much for him to imagine, but you refuse to shrink or hide. You assess him yourself, and realization spreads across your face. You mutter his name aloud. Joel.Â
He pauses just behind you and hooks a finger under the thin strap along your shoulder, teasing down the skin before snapping it like a rubber band. You stifle a wince. Just because he has you alone and barely dressed in the wilderness doesnât mean you intend to give easily. You keep your chin raised in a proudly defiant stance.Â
Joel chuckles dangerously at you, stepping closer. He rests his large palms atop your shoulders. It would be a sweet portrait of the two of you if it werenât for the reality of the circumstance. Instead, his body is oppressive, so broad compared to you that itâs like youâre caged in, locked in a gravitational pull towards him, despite being in the open air.Â
Your distaste for his presence has your body rigid and tense. Youâre holding your breath as he leers at your body over your shoulder. His fingers dig into the flesh over the ridge of your clavicle like the claws of a predator ready to fly you away or tear you apart.Â
âAre you going to come along willingly now?â he asks. The bass of his voice sends a shiver down your spine despite his furnace of a chest radiating into your back. The question hangs ominously between you. The or left unsaid.Â
You swallow slowly, muttering an agreement and turning so youâre face to face. Your eyes dart across his features, and itâs strangely intimate. Something heavy in the closeness of your mouths, the shared breaths you take. His humanity is so apparent. You could reach out to trace every line of his face, but his stoic expression morphs into something sinister.
âThatâs too bad,â he tuts, disappointed, âI was hoping youâd put up a fight.âÂ
You scowl, shifting your weight to lean away from him. He laughs harshly at your response. Itâs a grating, barking sound, baring his teeth.Â
Youâre still thinking about what he was hoping for as he binds your wrists together, but heâs not revealing anything else. He grabs your upper arm and begins leading you toward the dense trees. You stumble, adjusting to his pace and trying to find your stride.Â
âWhere are you taking me?â you complain, trying to jerk your arm out of his grip, but heâs latched on tight. Heâs unfazed by your attempt to break away from him as if itâs a natural part of his day-to-day to wrestle with an unwilling companion.Â
Itâs an exertion to keep up with him; he moves with purpose and little regard for you. Unaware of the small branches and shoots of new growth in the forest whip at your face, arms, and ankles. Uncaring that they obstruct your vision as you let him lead.Â
You take his strength, size, and foul-tempered look apparent from his profile. You follow half a step behind, visibly less enthused about his single-minded pursuit.Â
âNot far.â Heâs blunt. Unhelpful. Answering you without a glance in your direction.Â
âWhat do you want with me?â
âThatâs not my decision,â he shrugs as if he isnât talking about what happens to your life. Not wasting a word to ease your panic.Â
âWho sent you?â Fear cracks through your voice. Ugly and raw.Â
âDonât know.âÂ
Heâs so short with you. Brutish and rushed. Trudging along indifferent to your world crashing down.Â
âYou donât know?â Thereâs an edge to your tone, frustration apparent. Joel shoots you a scathing look. He has a handsome face, but his dark eyes show no kindness.Â
âDonât know. Donât care.â He turns away, looking forward as you make your way along.Â
He moves confidently, like a force of nature. Twigs snap under his boots as he creates his path without regard for the destruction.Â
âThen whatâs in it for you? Why not just let me go?â You press sulkily.Â
âI get paid for delivering you, not making decisions, sweet thing.âÂ
His response is gross and detached. Sweet thing. The pet name drips with sarcasm. Youâre just an object. You scoff at him.Â
âYouâre despicable,â you cut under your breath as you weave through the underbrush. Disgust warps your features as you make your way along.
âWatch it,â Joel snaps. A low tolerance threshold. Fitting for a surly smuggler.Â
âItâs true,â you snap right back. He doesnât take it lightly, stopping and yanking you around roughly so youâre facing him again.Â
âYouâre heartless,â you jab, âscum. You donât care about anything but your own profit.âÂ
Fed up, he backs you into the nearest tree. The bark digs into your shoulder blades. His hand grips your throat menacingly. His face is so close to yours. The deep line between his brows, the depth of his dark eyes, and his plush lower lips are all you can see.Â
âKeep it up,â he goads. His fingers are merely a threat, resting along your arteries. Tempting you to talk back. âWe both know you arenât innocent,â he adds.Â
You snarl at that, arguing that he doesnât know the first thing about you, but he only grins darkly.Â
Joel enjoys the way you detest him. He also enjoys the sight of you pinned under his hand. The way it only takes one to have you helplessly trapped. Youâre still muttering insults at him, but heâs ignoring your words. Heâs too interested in the arch in your spine tilting you towards him. The rising and falling as your breath is shallow and quick.Â
Your thin top is still damp from your dip in the water, and from his point of view, itâs a scene that deserves to be photographed. You seem so delicate in contrast to him. His wide palm covering your throat, his vascular forearm so masculine against your supple skin. You look at him through your lashes, your eyes narrow and scornful, but his eyes trail down as your voice trails off.Â
Joel has a perfect view of your hard nipples under the thin material of your shirt. The fabric clings to you like youâre in a wet t-shirt contest, and the longer he stares, the more he starts to lose his sense of urgency in taking you anywhere.
âWhat?â you interrupt his ogling, forcing your features into a disapproving glower to overcompensate for the breathlessness.Â
Heâs amused by your contempt and disobedience. He can tell thereâs a struggle forming beneath the surface. The twitch between your brows where they threaten to saddle in pleasure if he applies the right pressure. The lust flickering behind your eyes. The disdain tugging at the corners of your frown only makes his blood run hotter.Â
âYou think youâre better than me,â His voice drops, sinfully low. You stare blankly, not arguing. âYou think youâre special,â he continues cruelly.Â
âYou arenât.â His fingers squeeze along just the sides of your neck; playing god with you, he restricts the blood pumping through your arteries. âNo, sweet thing, youâre just another runaway whore with a bad attitude. That sure as hell doesnât make you special.â
âIâm not a whore.â You spit his words back in his face.Â
âNo?â He mocks, tilting his head and dragging his eyes over your frame. His lecherous gaze highlights your compromising position. Youâre on display for him, at his mercy, alone. It all comes into focus as your throat runs dry. âCouldâve fooled me.â He lifts the pressure off your neck, and the blood rushes to your head.Â
Your gasp switches into a tight frown. His cocky smirk only widens.Â
âArgue all you want, but your body doesnât lie,â he coos arrogantly.Â
âCan feel your pulse beating faster,â his fingers massage deliberately at your neck. You steel your breathing, eyes searching for something on his face to focus on. Something to ground you. But he leans in close, his breath hot along your ear. âSo desperate,â he inhales deeply like heâs cataloging your scent, âjust for me?âÂ
His other hand traces the angle of your jaw.Â
âMaybe thatâs just a human response to being pinned to a tree in the middle of nowhere by a smuggler,â you hiss.Â
âMaybe.â He releases you, and you stagger forward at the sudden loss of support. Losing your balance and unable to steady yourself with your hands bound, youâre toppling forward to your knees as Joel half catches youâstopping you from landing with your face in the dirt.Â
He shakes his head at you in disbelief. Every time you move, you pose just to tempt him. Here you are on your knees, glowing in the soft light as you tilt your face up at him. The fear that flitters over your face twists into something else. Something that makes you both pause.Â
Joel moves first, resting a hand on your cheek. Reflexively, your lips part, and he canât stop slipping his thumb into your mouth. You try to recalibrate, reversing the involuntary responses, but heâs already seen them. The way your breath hitched and the way your eyes darkened.Â
He raises a brow slightly, entertained by how easy it is to read the signs. âItâs too late to hide it.â He pulls his thumb back, dragging it slowly over your bottom lip and down to your chin, leaving a trail of saliva that catches the light and glistens. âYou think I canât see how bad you want it?âÂ
You shake your head lightly in defiance, murmuring that heâs wrong and dropping your gaze. Youâre sat at eye level with his belt and his one hand with the thumb hooked on a belt loop. You study every ridge of his hand, the scars along his knuckles, the sun-tanned brown skin.Â
The bulge highlighted by his fitted jeans catches your attention, and you look back up to meet his eyes. Â
Joel slips his hand past your face, fingers weaving into your hair, cupping the back of your head. He doesnât add much pressure, and you donât have to lean far to rest your cheek along the worn denim on his upper thigh.Â
âYeah,â he growls above you, âtake it out.âÂ
You move hurriedly, dissolving your denial. Itâs easy work to unbuckle his belt and pop open the button of his jeans, even with your wrists bound. You wet your lips unconsciously as you tug the band of his boxers down until his cock springs free. Only half-hard, it hangs imposing and proud. So close to your face, you can see the tiniest twitch as he responds to your warm breath fanning over his skin.Â
âGet to it,â he orders.Â
You blink up at him, resistance fading on the tip of your tongue. âOr get up so we can get a move on; doesnât matter to me.â he challenges. You curl your fingers around the base of his shaft. Itâs smooth and hot under your fingertips. Experimentally, you run your tongue along the underside. His fingers tighten their grip in your hair.Â
You open wide, laying your tongue out flat, and he guides you. Joelâs eyes are glued to your mouth as he slides his cock past your lips. You stare back, studying every expression that crosses his face. His hard eyes donât soften, but you could swear his blinking slows. The hint of a snarl deepens as he picks up the pace.Â
Using you. Fucking your wet mouth until heâs pressing into the back of your throat, seeking more.Â
Your eyes tear up, but he doesnât stop, and you donât resist.Â
You quickly acclimate, working in rhythm, breathing, taking it all. When your eyelids flutter shut and a moan buzzes in your throat, Joel laughs darkly. âIf you arenât a whore,â he pauses to make a throaty noise that spears right to your core, âwhy do you take my cock down your throat just like one?âÂ
You choke at his assertion, and he pulls out of your mouth, leaving you gasping for air.Â
âNot a very good one, I guess,â he says flatly, yet with a particularly pleased expression still faintly etched in the lines of his face. You wipe the spit coating your chin onto the back of your hands.Â
He doesnât reach for you again; instead, he takes his cock in his own hand. Impatient. Slick with your saliva, he strokes himself lewdly, grunting with pleasure as he flicks his wrist.Â
âYouâre deranged,â you mutter, voice hoarse.Â
He doesnât like that. He moves without a word, shoving you forward onto your elbows and knees. He holds you down against the soft grass with one hand as the other crudely pulls your shorts down. He runs his palm along the curve of your spine, over the contour of your ass. Both hands grip the back of your knees, readjusting you to his liking.Â
Then he takes his time.Â
Kneading your ass and thighs, landing one firm smack on that has you jolting forward, cheek pressing flat into the grass. The sharp sensation disorients you and leaves you sucking in air.Â
Joel is undisturbed by your reactions. He takes both of his thumbs to spread you open wider, revealing the glossy sheen of your core. Your cunt drips, slick and swollen for him.Â
âYou think Iâm so despicable,â his gravelly voice makes your mind fuzzy, âhow come youâre so fuckinâ wet for me?âÂ
You can only manage to whine into the ground, pushing back towards him. âYou donât move,â he says harshly, one wide palm gripping your hip to hold you still. When the blunt head of his cock glides along your seam, you let out a broken moan. His fingers dig into your soft flesh in warning.Â
He pauses, with his tip resting at the core of your throbbing pussy, to marvel at the visual before sinking into you. You gasp at the overwhelming sensation of being filled so completely. You donât have time to adjust before heâs pulling back and slamming into you again. He drags against every nerve inside of you, intensifying every motion.Â
Joel isnât gentle. He holds you firmly and uses your body, fucking into you with rough thrusts that make your thighs tremble. âTake it,â he grunts, pounding into you deeply until his hips meet your bare thighs.Â
Itâs all wet noises, heaving breathing, and skin slapping against skin. He watches the plush curves of your ass ripple as he drives into you harder and faster. The force of his movement pulls sharp, ragged cries from you as he fucks you so hard it pushes the air out of your lungs.Â
âThis is all you get.â Joel groans behind you, curling over you with his broad frame. Your bodies are sweaty where your naked skin slips against each other, and you writhe against him, mouth hanging open and eyes rolling back as he fucks deeply into you.Â
âYouâre nothing to me,â he snarls, punctuated with his hips snapping into you brutally. âJust fuckinâ cargo.âÂ
âShit,â he mutters, hips stuttering as you whimper. âYou like that. Can feel you clenching around me,â he keeps talking. Youâre mindless beneath him. A winded, drooling mess. âAinât even worth the hassle to deliver. Better use taking my cock,â he grunts, hips canting more erratically until he stills, pulsing inside of you with a throaty groan.Â
Youâre boneless, propped up on shaky knees as he pulls out and watches his come leak out of you for a moment. Then heâs crassly yanking your shorts up and ordering you to stand. Youâre wobbly when you get back to your feet, and he huffs at you agitatedly. âFigure out how to walk, or Iâll drag your ass the rest of the way.âÂ
You canât say how long it takes before you reach your destination. Everything was a blur as you clumsily trotted along, outpaced by Joelâs long stride. Youâre breathing loudly through your mouth, a sheen of sweat between your shoulder blades and on your chest. Joel, apparently well-conditioned for the cardio, is frustratingly collected. He holds you tightly as he opens the door and pushes you inside.Â
He jerks you towards a makeshift seat on a crate and raps a fist against the wall behind you. You can hear heavy footsteps. Joel ignores you as you try to read his expression. In seconds, the fully armored Mandalorian enters the room.Â
He moves swiftly, barely glancing in your direction as Joel meets him on the far side of the room.Â
âYou were delayed,â the Mandalorian remarks in his modulated voice, his tone unrevealing. Joel steps in closer, muttering in a hushed tone that you canât pick up. Something makes the Mandalorian laugh abrasively. His voice cracks through the air, fraught with a hazardous edge.Â
You sit still, chest tight, as the helmet swivels towards you. Expressionless metal, he gives nothing away. Harsh lights beat down on your damp skin, making it hard to stay still.Â
Joel is menacing, but this guy is impossible to read. The Mandalorian stalks towards you like a predator.Â
Joel leaves the room, presumably off to shower, pulling his shirt over his head as he walks away.Â
âLetâs see then,â the Mandalorian commands as he approaches.Â
âSee what?â
He pulls you to your feet, a gloved hand jerking your head side to side as he examines you.Â
He steps forward, and you back away in synchronized steps until your heel hits something. The Mandalorian has you trapped between the cold wall and his cold metal armor.Â
He removes the cuffs that bind your hands, tossing them aside, drawing a confused look from you. Instead, with one hand, he pins both your wrists above your head, causing your legs to spread instinctively. You squeeze your eyes shut as if you can control yourself without looking.Â
âHe said youâre not worth the fuel to return.â The Mandalorian gestures toward the direction Joel disappeared in with just a subtle tilt of his head. âThat youâre a distraction and a whore.âÂ
âThen let me go.âÂ
âNo.â
The Mandalorian doesnât say more. He watches you. He is still and statuesque, whereas youâre so human. In the thick air, your breathing sounds too loud. Your heart beats too violently. Your limbs tremble too weakly. You give away so much, just with your body, your face, your eyes.Â
âWhat do you want with me?âÂ
âI ask the questions,â he negates coolly.Â
He squeezes your jaw tightly, âIs it your mouth?â His fingers squish the insides of your cheeks against your teeth.Â
âNoâŠit canât be this needy cunt, hmm?âÂ
Youâre shuddering, soft, and pliant. Warm, flesh and blood. You canât form a response for him, even when he releases your jaw. Your gape at him with wide eyes and wet lips.Â
Then, unceremoniously, heâs shoving his hand into your leggings. Wedging his thick fingers between your slippery, swollen folds. He growls like an animal beneath the helmet.
âYouâre soaked,â he says. âGetting fucked full of Joelâs cock wasnât enough?â He pulls his hand out, letting the band of your leggings snap against your belly. You stare back. Your body trembles lightly, arms straining in his grip.Â
âAnswer me,â he orders quietly.Â
Itâs soft. Your throat is still hoarse. âNo.âÂ
Then heâs groping at you with an intensity that makes you writhe against the cool steel wall.Â
He pinches at your strained nipples, rolling them between his fingers and making you bite your own lip to distract from the twisted pain and pleasure heâs unleashing on you. You canât keep back all the noises, though, and he pauses when you moan and arch into his hand.Â
âYouâre not a whore,â he decides and he wedges his thigh between your legs. You roll along the ridged plate of armor, needily grinding against him.Â
Without warning, the Mandalorian tears your top off of your body like a starved animal. Primal and desperate, but with precision. A tremor runs through you at the exposure and ferocity, making you gasp.Â
âNo. You like this too much to be whore.â He drops your hands and they fly to his shoulders. You wrap your legs around his waist and he carries you across the room dropping you onto the bed.Â
He pulls your leggings down, tossing them to the floor. Youâre breathing so heavily, anticipating his next move. He pulls his cock out of his pants and you canât take your eyes off of it. The only part of him exposed aside from his hand. The only glimpse of the true man beneath the metal.Â
He taps his drooling head on your clit and you make a hungry sound, spreading your legs wide to make room for him. With a firm grip, he guides himself through your throbbing folds and into your hot, wet cunt.Â
You groan as he meets the end of you. Your walls flutter around him as he splits you open, and then he starts to rock in and out and you keen. âShut up,â he growls and covers your mouth with his palm.Â
He saws into you relentlessly and you choke down your cries of pleasure. âListen to how wet you are,â he mutters. âSuch a filthy slut.â Your body jolts with every thrust, breasts bouncing and legs shaking as he keeps your mouth covered.Â
âYou think she can take us both?âÂ
You strain under the Mandalorianâs hand trying to turn your head and Joel moves in closer.Â
âSheâs just cargo,â Joel muses darkly, âsheâll take what we give.âÂ
âŠâŠ.
You pause the video on your laptop, freezing the scene just as it cuts back to your reaction to Joel. The fucked out smile in your eyes apparent, even with your mouth covered.Â
You whip your head over to look at your boyfriend lounging next to you on the sofa. Your brow is furrowed critically, and he can see the wheels turning in your mind. His eyes, though, are clouded with lust.Â
âWouldâve been better if we couldâve made a set that looked like the Razor Crest,â you grumble. You chew on your bottom lip as you consider the rest of your critique.Â
âDo you think I shouldâve kept in more of the dialogue between you and Joel? And the continuity with your glovesâdo you really think itâs not that noticeable?âÂ
âBaby,â Frankie mutters in his thick, husky voice. âI donât think anyone is worried about the plot or the fucking gloves.âÂ
You sigh deeply at that, returning to your video editing software with irritation. âYouâre just saying that because you arenât worried about those things,â you admonish him, continuing with your work.Â
You play another clip of the scene that the two of you shot. Hearing your moaning and whimpering for him through the laptop speakers drives him fucking crazy. Heâs pretty sure he could wear a banana suit and people would still happily pay to watch you get railed by him.Â
âIâm not just saying that,â he argues, deciding to hold back on the banana comment.Â
âCome here. Itâs late, take a break.â He can practically hear your eyes roll as you ignore him and continue poring over details that only you would notice. He doesnât have much patience left, already desperately turned on both from the video you made and from how sexy you look next to him. So focused. In your element.Â
He lowers his voice into that rumbly, bassy register that he knows you canât resist. âAre you going to make me repeat myself?â Your head swivels, and he gives you a dark glare with a gleam in his eye. He can see the feisty remark swirling on the tip of your tongue. âCome here,â he orders.Â
You close the laptop, pushing it towards the middle of the coffee table. âAre you going to punish me?â you murmur, crawling onto his lap slowly. âI can get the helmet back out,â you joke with a playful smirk before you curl into him, pressing soft kisses along his warm neck.Â
âFuck,â he huffs, âI should punish you.â He grabs your hips, guiding you closer to where he wants you. You gasp at the same time as he groans when your core rubs against the long ridge of his erection. âYou feel that?â he growls lowly. The friction and heat between you radiates up his spine and down to his toes. âYou feel how hard you make me?â he asks.Â
âYes.â You grind against him. He feels huge through his soft sweats. You roll your hips, savoring the pressure of his hard cock teasing you. It sends sparks from your cunt to your nipples, lighting up your nerves. He slips one hand under the oversized t-shirt youâre wearingâhis t-shirtâ to palm your tits and pinch at your nipples as if he could read your mind or, rather, your body.Â
âThatâs how hard every jerkoff that watches us is gonna be.âÂ
His statement makes you giggle softly against his neck. âYeah?â you ask breathily.Â
âYeah,â he confirms before capturing your lips with a hungry kiss that makes you moan into his mouth. You melt into each other on the sofa. Tongues sliding against each other, hips rocking against each other, and hearts beating against each other through your ribcages.Â
He cradles you in his arms as he shifts. Releasing you once youâre flat beneath him on the sofa, âTheyâll never know what itâs like to feel your sweet cunt come around their cock, though.â He says as he lifts your legs, sliding off your soaked panties before spreading you open.Â
You can only hum in agreement, entranced by the sight of him pushing down his sweatpants. Heâs lost in you. The desire in your eyes and the arousal shining on the folds of your core. You wrap your legs around him, hitching one knee up high to give him deeper access.Â
âPlease,â you groan. He teases you with the wide head of his cock, nudging at your clit as he coats himself in the fresh wave of slick flooding around him.Â
âPlease, what?âÂ
âPlease, fuck me. Now.âÂ
A warm puff of air comes out of his nose. Amused with your impatience. But when he starts to feed himself into you slowly, itâs no longer funny. Heâs possessed by the same urgency. Gripped by the plush heat of your cunt as you stretch around him. When heâs fully seated, hips flush to your pelvis, his cock throbs inside of you, and you dig your fingernails into the musculature of his shoulders. Silently demanding more, so he moves.Â
He fucks into you with a fervor made of possession and pride. Filling you so deeply that itâs like heâs connected to your soul, slotted perfectly into the heart of your cunt. Every ridge of him designed to caress every nerve inside of you. But beyond fitting together physically, he knows exactly what you want.Â
He snaps his hips harder. Faster. With a force that makes your eyelids heavy and your head bob limply as he drives into you with such strength that it makes you mindless with pleasure. He gives and gives. And you take and take. You cry out his name when he finds the perfect angle to launch you into a euphoric orgasm. Itâs not long before heâs coming, too, stuffing you full and deep as your walls constrict and contract around him.Â
Time feels fuzzy as you lay together. Sticky but satisfied. His arm and leg thrown over you weigh heavily as he relaxes. He could drift off like this, and heâs about to say so when he catches that look on your face. You just figured something out.Â
âWhat are you plotting?â he asks in a sleepy voice.Â
âIâve got an idea for our next video.âÂ
âYeah?â
âDo you still have those zip ties?âÂ
pls let me know if enjoyed or hated any of it <3

Writing Notes: Sex Scenes
It takes skill to write an immersive & emotional sex scene. Consider the following tips.
Is the sex scene even necessary?
Ask yourself this question.
GENRE
Sex scenes may depend on genre. Example:
If you're writing a romance novel, sex scenes are almost always mandatory. But if you're writing in another genre, like mystery or speculative fiction, you may not need to add sex at all.
Sex sells in Hollywood, but literature is more nuanced than film.
You don't need to include sex in your novel just to grab your reader's attention.
NATURAL FLOW
Characterization, pacing, and plotting should do the heavy lifting.
In fact, adding gratuitous sex to your novel may actually slow the pace, cheapen the story, destroy your characterization, and insult the reader.
Before adding sex to a story, always figure out if the move is something that your characters would actually make, or if itâs something that youâre forcing.
MOVING FORWARD
A follow-up question to ask is if this sex scene moves the story forward.
Sometimes, you can simply imply that sex happened without retelling the entire scene: Itâs not always necessary to share every intimate detail with your readers, especially if it drags the pacing to a halt.
Don't get stuck in modesty mode
When you write sex scenes, itâs gonna get raw.
There are arms, legs, emotions, sweat, and nipples.
If that made you squirm, youâre not ready.
Come back after youâve eaten some nachos, downed a beer, and thrown modesty out of the way.
This is the one time when you canât think about whoâs going to read your book.
Usually, editors recommend that you always visualize your reader when telling your story. However, no one wants to think about their mom (i.e. your average reader) when theyâre documenting lurid sex.
Instead of thinking about your reader, think about the characters and what youâre seeing. Your job is to write down what you see the characters do.
If itâs clear to you, it will be clear to your reader.
Remember that youâre on this step because you believe this sex scene is integral to your storyâs plot. So, if it makes sense for the characters, donât allow your sense of embarrassment to weaken the story.
Use a lot of detail
Here is your daily dose of âshow, donât tell.â
Instead of saying that the characters had sex, describe exactly whatâs going on. Look at each moment as a still photograph and describe what you see.
And donât forget about the emotional exchange between your characters:
Record every bead of sweat.
Make mention of every moan.
How one may adjust their position for the other.
Describe the feeling behind every glance.
The pressure of each kiss.
The movement of light and shadow on their skin.
Employ restraint
After writing the sex scene, you may realize that thereâs no need to include every single detail. This goes back to pacing.
If you spend a few pages, or even a chapter, detailing the entire sexual escapade, your storytelling can suffer.
The hot and heavy sex scene can become a grind to read.
Plus, slowing your pace may make it difficult to speed back up again.
Another reason to truncate your sex scene could be your audience.
If youâre writing for young adults (ages 12-18) or new adults (ages 18-30), the topic of sex scenes can get a little awkward.
Yes, some teenagers have sex, but does your average teenager need to read a full-on sex scene for it to have the intended impact? No.
Sometimes, restraint is necessary and even preferred in order to tell the best story to your reader.
See from your characters' eyes
Do not to visualize your mom while writing. Hereâs a tip: Jump into one of the characterâs heads and see it from their perspective.
Even if youâre writing your story from third-person omniscient, itâs essential that you stick with one perspective in the sex scene.
This cuts down on confusion (for your reader), helps with characterization, and provides for a more captivating reading experience.
The reader needs to be a part of the scene, not some awkward observer in the corner of the room (thatâs your job).
Hereâs how you do it: Assign an imaginary camera to one character so that the reader can see exactly what this character sees.
Writing a sex scene requires that you move in very closely to your characters. Youâve got to be all up in their space to tell it with breathless emotion.
If you switch characters, youâll lose intimacy, so stick to one.
Make it tense
Tension is an important part of sex, and so it is with writing sex scenes.
In an effort to make them integral to your plot, your sex scenes should be tight with tension, but how do you do that?
Figure out whatâs at stake for your characters. The reader needs to know whatâs at risk for the characters before, during, and after sex (broken heart, broken promises, etc.).
Show the conflict within the characterâs mind (perhaps one character is torn between wanting to have sex and wanting to leave).
Create conflict with another character (perhaps one of the characters is engaged to someone else).
Figure out what happens after the moment of glory
They had sex. Now what?
Don't end your chapter with a sex scene unless the next chapter starts with the repercussions of sex.
Otherwise, if you donât tie the sex scene into the rest of the story, youâll miss an important character development opportunity.
The reader needs to know what happens in the story immediately after the characters have sex as a result of them having sex:
Do they fall asleep together in love?
Do they wake up in the morning together in disgust?
Does one character leave?
How does the other, now-abandoned character feel?
Sex is a huge deal.
It should prompt the characters to make new choices that they may not have otherwise made.
If sex doesnât change your characters, it doesnât belong in your story.
Write it all at once
When writing a sex scene, donât break your narrative to get a tacoâWait, why are you eating?
Sex demands your full attention (at least, good sex does).
And, just like with sex, you donât want to break in the middle to do something else. After all, you wouldnât stop in the middle of the act to eat a taco, would you? Donât do it when writing a sex scene.
The ebb and flow, push and pull, rise and fall of sex are best written as one, flowing narrative. If you stop, itâs hard to capture that same moment.
After writing the scene, take a break. Then re-read.
Does it make you feel tingly? Then youâre doing something right.
When itâs time to edit/rewrite, only do so when you have the time to relive the scene from beginning to end.

As someone who grew up in England, i can vouch for this. also âdo you want (t not pronounced if your doing this verbally) a tea?â = welcome to someone you know, may have just gotten out of the rain. No, saying âdo you want a teaâ isnât âproper englishâ but we say it anyway.
Also âIâm putting the kettle on.â either an invitation for you to have tea or if said after a difficult moment is a way to say that the person is angry and a way to leave the room (to go put the kettle on).
we also say the phrase âchucking the kettle onâ, once again very colloquial and would only be said around family or friends
These apply to mid-southern england, northern may have different connotations and if you intend on writing a british character, i highly recommend looking into our different accents, dialectal differences and connotative language.
Also the separation isnât as easy as North/South. Like our accents are so different that when i talk to someone from england i can pinpoint where they live within a 10 mile radius (if that)

Could you do Reader meeting Drew at carnival or something? Reader is there with her two friends and Drew is there with his, Odessa and co. Both groups are in odd numbers, meaning someone always has to sit with a stranger during a carousel ride. This time it is Readerâs turn to sit with a stranger while her friends sit togehter. Same for Drew. Reader and Drew get put together in a ride. Some awkward tension, attraction and cuteness. As soon as they get off the ride tho, Odessa runs up to Drew hugging him, so Reader gets the impression that he is taken and is like ââOhâŠguess I wonât ask for his numberâŠ..:/ ââ and walks off. But then at some point Drew sees her again at the carnival and wellâŠâŠ.
hope you like it !!âïž the air was thick with the smell of popcorn and cotton candy, the sounds of laughter and screams from carnival rides filling the night. you, along with your two friends, were making your way through the throngs of people, the vibrant lights casting a kaleidoscope of colors around you. your friend jenna was already eyeing the ferris wheel, while casey was determined to find the most ridiculous hat she could wear for a photo op.
âcan we please go on something that wonât make me want to hurl?â you joked, clutching your stomach as you passed a spinny ride that looked like it could launch someone into orbit.
âoh, come on! whereâs your sense of adventure?â jenna teased, giving you a playful shove. âweâre here to have fun!â
just then, you caught sight of a group across the way: a guy with tousled hair, a cheeky grin plastered on his face, surrounded by a couple of friends, one of whom was waving her arms like a lunatic. you couldnât help but smirk; they looked like a band of misfits, and the guyâdrew, you overheard someone call himâhad an easy charm that was hard to ignore.
as you wandered toward the carousel, the sound of cheerful music inviting you closer, drewâs laugh carried over to you, loud and unapologetic. he had that kind of laugh that made you want to roll your eyes, but you also found yourself grinning. the carousel was in a weird configuration: you and your friends were odd-numbered, meaning one of you would have to sit with a stranger. guess who that unlucky bastard was? you.
âlooks like itâs you, champ,â casey said, nudging you forward as jenna giggled. âhave fun with your mystery date!â
you shot her a mock glare before stepping up to the ride. meanwhile, drew was being pushed by his friends toward the same ride, and you both ended up on the same horseâhis a little to the left of yours. great.
as the carousel began to spin, you shot drew a sideways glance. he looked at you, and for a moment, everything blurred into the background. âso, this is fun,â you said, trying to fill the awkward silence. âiâm thrilled to be your carousel buddy.â
âthrilled? oh, it must be my lucky day,â he replied, his smirk making your heart flutter. âwhatâs your name? or should I just call you my new favorite stranger?â
ây/n. and youâre drew, right?â
âguilty as charged. so, what brings you here? other than the joy of being awkwardly paired with a stranger on a spinning ride?â
you laughed, the sound a bit louder than you intended. âjust here for the chaos, i guess. you know, cotton candy, overpriced games, and the constant threat of nausea.â
âah, a connoisseur of fine carnivals! i like that,â he grinned, leaning closer. âi, too, have a refined taste in fine cotton candy and the thrill of potential vomiting on a carousel. itâs a true art form, really.â
you shook your head, laughing. âyouâre ridiculous. but in the best way.â
the ride continued, the two of you exchanging jokes, the initial awkwardness fading into something more comfortable. you caught yourself sneaking glances at him, taking in the way his lips curled into a smirk and how animated his expressions were. he was cuteâlike, really cute.
but as the ride slowed to a stop, reality came crashing back. you were both about to disembark when suddenly, a blur of energy rushed up to drew. âdrew!â she squealed, throwing her arms around him. it was odessa, the friend from earlier, and the two of them looked way too cozy. your heart sank as you realized that maybe drew wasnât available after all.
âoh⊠guess i wonât be asking for his number,â you muttered under your breath, forcing a smile as you stepped away. you could feel the bubble of attraction deflate like a popped balloon. you waved goodbye to your friends and started to walk away, trying to ignore the sting of disappointment.
time passed, and the carnival lights danced around you, but your mind kept drifting back to the moment with drew. you were beginning to think youâd never see him again when, out of nowhere, he came sprinting back into view. his friends were trailing behind him, and he was looking for somethingâor someone.
âhey!â he called, spotting you. you turned, a little surprised he even remembered your name. âyou didnât get my number!â
âyeah, well, you were kind of busy being hugged by odessa,â you replied, crossing your arms defensively.
âtrust me, itâs not what it looks like. we're just friends,â he said, rolling his eyes. "want to grab some cotton candy together? i promise to share, but only if youâre willing to do it like true adultsâby faceplanting into it.â
your heart did a little flip at his invitation. âokay, but only if you promise to eat it straight off the stick like civilized humans.â
drew laughed, his eyes lighting up. âdeal! and who knows, maybe we can find a ride that doesnât require sitting next to strangers. unless youâre into that. iâm not here to judge. my friends and i have a running bet on who can make the most ridiculous small talk on rides, and i could use some competition.â
he led you through the carnival, weaving between the crowds, his hand brushing against yours like he was testing the waters. your heart raced as you made your way toward the ferris wheel, its lights twinkling like a galaxy above you. âthis is the best ride for some real fun,â he said, leaning closer as you waited in line. âyou get a killer view of the carnival and the chance to make out in the moonlight if you play your cards right.â
âoh, really?â you shot back, trying to sound nonchalant, though your cheeks felt hot. âis that a guarantee?â
âiâm just saying,â he said, a wicked grin spreading across his face, âi can be pretty persuasive. or maybe itâs just the cotton candy talking.â
as you climbed into the gondola and it began to rise, the world below you shrank, the lights of the carnival twinkling like stars. you could feel the excitement building, your heart racing not just from the height but from being so close to him. drew leaned closer, his breath warm against your ear. âyou know, this would be the perfect time to kiss someone,â he murmured, mischief dancing in his eyes.
âoh, is that right?â you replied, challenging him with a smirk.
âabsolutely. i mean, who wouldnât want to steal a kiss while overlooking a carnival filled with chaos?â he asked, leaning even closer until your lips were mere inches apart.
in that moment, everything else faded away. the noise of the carnival, the lights, the worldâit was just you and drew, suspended in that gondola. you could feel the heat radiating between you as you closed the gap, your lips meeting his in a soft, tentative kiss that quickly turned hungry. he tasted like cotton candy and adventure, and you lost yourself in the moment, the kiss deepening as you melted against him.
when you finally pulled away, both of you breathless, he grinned like heâd just won the jackpot. âso, how was that for some carnival fun?â he teased, clearly pleased with himself.
âdefinitely more exciting than a roller coaster,â you admitted, your heart still racing.
âwell, the night is still young,â he said, his grin widening. âletâs see what other trouble we can get into.â
as the ferris wheel creaked to a stop, you couldnât help but feel that this was just the beginning of a wild night filled with laughter, chaos, and maybe a few more kisses.

The right hand, the left hand, the heart of Sylus Qin | ao3 | fanfic masterlist
Summary: Sylus meets with his legal counsel while the twins give you a tour of the base, you wake up from a dream, Sylus wastes some eggs, you attempt to get to know Sylus better, and you have your first 'date' with Sylus Qin. Part 16 of the Sylus series.
Notes: Sylus x gn reader, Sylus x mc, second person POV, some Sylus POV They/them pronouns used to describe reader, meant as a placeholder for your preferred pronouns slow-burn friends-to-lovers This story contains: a lot of fluff and patient, tender Sylus, despite the following: MC questioning their sanity, MC with self-esteem issues, MC in the death-throes of fear-driven denial regarding the possibility that maybe, just maybe, Sylus has been interested in them this entire fucking time, Aidan antics, twin antics, a little self-induced MC angst, mentions of violence, profanity, alcohol use, discussions of gray morality
Sylus lets his bedroom door shut behind him, leaving you to dress, preparing to leave you in Luke and Kieranâs hands. His heartâso long an empty cavern, echoing the rapid-fire rhythm of its beatâclenches, jams. Youâre just on the other side of the door, and youâre already too far.
The twins are leaning against the hallway wall on either side of the door. As he steps out, their heads snap up.
He pauses. âShow kitten around the base, wherever they want to go. Finish the tour with the guest wing.â
Kieran straightens. âWhy the guest wing? Is your hunter not staying in your room?â Heâs still hoarse from the previous night, and Sylus makes a mental note to get him some throat lozenges. It was your feral kitten who hurt him, after all, although itâs arguably also Kieran and Lukeâs own fault for approaching a seasoned warrior in a notoriously dangerous area like a couple of serial killers. Which the twins are, but not in the typical sense of the term.
âKitten hasnât decided where to stay yet,â Sylus answers, secure in the knowledge that you will choose him. But he is serious about wanting to at least offer you the choiceâof rooms. Because even if you choose another room to stay in, he intends to find his way there at the end of every day. You sleep much better when heâs around, after all. Even then, youâll still have a choiceâyou can always try to kick him off the bed again. Heâll just sleep on the floor.
âDo you want us to fix that?â Luke asks hopefully. âWe can flood that floor if you want. Whoops, all the rooms are out of order!â he feigns surprise, poorly.Â
Sylus snorts. âI have a feeling that if you tried to flood only the one floor, the whole base will end up underwater.â
âIs that a no?â Luke looks disappointed.
âThatâs a no,â Kieran answers for Sylus. âUnderstood. Weâll show them all the entertainment options we have to incentivize a long stay, before we show them the guest rooms.â
Sylus nods. âCall me, if it looks like kitten is getting overwhelmed. Their last stay here⊠had unintended consequences.âÂ
âOh you mean when you starved them and forced them to resonate with you and threatened to leave them to die?â Luke asks, counting on his fingers and tilting his head.
Sylus sighs. âYes, Luke. Thatâs what I mean.â
âOkay, then weâll tell them all about how awesome you are so that they forget that you can also be a massive asshole,â Luke perks up.
Sylus just looks at him for a moment. Even with his aether core, it took him a while to get used to Lukeâs particular brand of practical, blunt straightforwardness. So few people speak to Sylus with such raw honesty and fearlessness that spending time with Luke is always a refreshing palate cleanser after enduring meeting after meeting with intimidated, simpering fools who would turn around and slit Sylusâs throat if given half a chance. He tells himself thatâs the only reason he tolerates such insubordination from this half of his right-hand man.
âOh, thatâs a sound plan Luke, well thought!â Kieran agrees, pleased with his other half.Â
âJust give them the tour and keep them company until Iâm done.â Sylus learned long ago that attempting to corral the twinsâ machinations is usually fruitless, but clear instructions tend to keep the fallout from being too disastrous.
The young men nod in unison. Sylus considers continuing to take his sweet time to get to his office, just to further infuriate the undoubtedly seething Aidan who is waiting for him. But then he remembers the last time he had to wade through a bunch of barking human beings at one of Aidanâs munches. He sniffs. Heâd much rather get business over with and get back to you as quickly as possible. If Sylus wasnât already keenly aware of how much your presence in his life is already changing him, heâd realize it now as he swallows his pettiness and teleports to his office, instead of making Aidan wait out of principle.
As he re-materializes in his office, Aidan turns from looking at the wall where a majority of Aidanâs fountain pens have ended up embedded, forming the image of a large happy face.
âHow surprising that you didnât throw them in the pattern of a skull emojiââ Aidan begins, until black-red tendrils materialize around his ankles and sweep him off his feet. They hold him dangling, headfirst. He lets out a little delighted squeal that makes Sylus wince.
âIf youâre trying to discourage my insubordination in front of your paramour that youâre undoubtedly about to ream me for, Iâm afraid itâs having the opposite effect,â his legal counsel grins happily, wriggling against the evol restraints.
Sylus comes to a stop in front of him so that theyâre face to upside-down face, his thumbs hooked casually in his sleep pants pockets.
âOh, I am aware,â  he says in disgust. âBut despite your interrupting a very pleasant moment with kitten, I feel that I owe you an apology for making you miss knitting club. So enjoy my mercy before we get down to business.â Â
âAnd people say youâre a monster,â Aidan continues grinning dopily at him.Â
âPeople are fools,â Sylus tsks. âOh, before I forget. Speaking of interrupting my moment with kitten⊠they say that if you ever call them kitten again, theyâll tear out your tongue and make you eat it.â
Aidanâs eyebrows shoot up⊠or down, depending on your perspective. âThey said that?â
Sylus considers lying, but he doesnât want to mischaracterize you or your words to anyone. âNot the part about forcing you to eat it,â he admits. âBut if kitten doesnât, Iâll make you.â
Aidan just laughs. âI donât believe your empty threats. My tongueâs too expensive for you to waste like that. Still⊠removing my tongue, huh,â he continues thoughtfully. âNo wonder youâre so obsessed.â
Sylus turns, leisurely making his way to his desk as the evol tendrils bind Aidanâs wrists behind his back, jerk him upright, and then toss him onto one of the black leather couches in the officeâs sitting area. They dissipate as Aidan snickers a little breathlessly.
âFirst the happy face. Now giving me a little treat instead of a lecture. Iâve never seen you in such a good mood.â Instead of sitting up like a proper employee showing deference to his employer, Aidan just stretches languidly across the couch and props his head up on a fist. âAlthough Iâm still pissed that this is how you treat my pens,â he frowns, jerking his head back toward the impaled wall.
âI pay you enough to purchase all the pens you could ever want, plus the factory that makes them.â Sylus sits down at his desk, slouching behind the paperwork still strewn haphazardly over it that he abandoned after receiving the call from Luke informing him that you were running from him again.
âBut what you do not pay me enough for is missing knitting club. The grandmas are going to give me hell the next time I go,â Aidan grumbles.Â
âIâm sure you can handle it,â Sylus drawls. âNow, if youâre done whining, letâs get through this so that I can get back to kitten.â
Aidan lets out a dramatic sigh and sits up, as if the effort is utterly exhausting. âHave you had a chance to look at the latest draft?â
Sylus flicks the messy stack of papers with his fingers and they go sailing with his evol to Aidanâs lap. Aidan lifts one page, a look of disdain on his face as he holds it so that he can look at Sylus through the neat hole punctured in it as a result of Sylusâs boredom with the pen.
âThatâs what I think of the latest draft,â Sylus says.
Aidan tsks. âGood, that was my feeling as well. But you didnât have to mutilate the damn thing.â He gathers the pages, trying to put them in order. âAfter Iâm finished reprinting it,â he sighs dramatically again. âIâll redline it and get it to them this week.â
Sylus just nods, staring out into the night through his officeâs wall of windows. Itâs not too foggy, so the N109 Zoneâs skyline glitters menacingly, an undersea predator luring prey in the dark.
âNext order of business: FJB groupâs CEO is hounding me again to arrange a face-to-face with you. Heâs getting⊠aggressive.â
âHardly surprising, considering the type of entitled scumbag he is,â Sylus scoffs. âIâm not interested in his offer. Keep ignoring him.â
âSylus, I donât think heâs the type of guy who will simply get the hint and slink back to his hole. Doing nothing will only embolden him.â
âEmbolden him to do what? If he doesnât get the message and tries to approach you directly, just eliminate him. I do not have the patience right now to play games with him.â He has much more interesting things to focus on, now that youâre in his bed, in his home, just down the hall. And this time heâs certain youâre right down the hall, and not sprinting through the night like a panicked deer. A deer capable of taking down wolves, but still, a deer all the same.
âThatâs a bad call, and you know it,â Aidan argues. âHe is strong enough to have an exclusive grip on the flesh trade. If you remove him, ten other would-be heads of the hydra will sprout and it will destabilize the Zone.That means more collateral damage.â
âAn exclusive grip that he has only because I allow it,â Sylus snorts. âAnd what, more collateral damage than the people he traffics?â
Aidan gapes at him. âWhat has gotten into you? This is the reality of humanity. People are not going to stop exploiting each other, no matter how much of an iron fist you wield. The only thing you can do is ensure that you think strategically enough to minimize the inevitable harm.â
Sylus frowns. That is indeed what he has always thought. The depravity of humanity is such that eradication of human suffering is impossible, and no one person can save the world. People can hardly save themselves. Sylus himself has learned that lesson the hard way, over and over. Itâs not his responsibility to save everyone. That is something that this version of you simply does not understand, and youâre vulnerable because of it. Someday, if Sylus doesnât stop you, youâre going to get yourself killed because of your misguided sense of duty to strangers whose fate is being born to suffer. But knowing this version of you⊠thinking about how hard you take every loss, the way your already broken heart is chiseled further with every person you canât save⊠his own assault rifle heart jams again.Â
The CEO of the FJB Group is just the type of person Sylus thinks youâd like to bathe your feet in the blood of, even if you hate admitting that to yourself. Sylus would happily string him up, field dress him like the pathetic prey he is, and let his corpse drain for your bathing pleasure.
But since youâre still having a hard time admitting that yourself, heâs worried that if he does, you might get mad. And Aidanâs right. If he kills this fuck, ten others will try to claw their way up to take the empty throne.
âNoted. Just keep ignoring him. If he still wonât take no for an answer, let me know.â Aidan looks relieved, until he continues. âBut Iâm going to rely on you more for the next few weeks. Handle everything you can without bothering me, unless you want to contact me in a personal capacity. Things are settled enough after cleaning houseâI want to focus on personal matters for the foreseeable future.â
Aidan jerks to his feet but takes a deep breath. He begins to pace, hands folded behind his back. Sylus appreciates his self control, as he knows that his litigatorâs instinct is to immediately counter-argue his disagreement.
He stops, turns to Sylus, huffs.
âSpeak,â Sylus orders, lifting an eyebrow. Seeing Aidan flustered is always amusing, but Sylus is impatient to get back to you. Maybe heâll be done quick enough to take over the tour himself.
âAre you sure this is a good idea? The risksâŠâ Aidan begins, uncharacteristically hesitant.Â
âWhether itâs a good idea or not, itâs happening. The whole reason Iâm here is finally in my bed. Everything else is secondary.â
Aidan looks pained. âI still donât understand your single-minded fixation on this one person. This one person who happens to be a Deepspace Hunter, whose job mandate is to hunt you, in particular, and bring you down. There are literally thousands of other people in the world who would probably be thrilled to be in your bed. Why limit yourself to one, and to one who poses such a risk to everything youâve built? To your very life?â
âNot all of us have such a low threshold for amusement that just anyone in their bed will do, like you,â Sylus clicks his tongue.
âItâs not about a low threshold of amusement. Itâs being open to the possibility that each person you meet is a gift, containing an entire world, and the pleasure is opening the box to see whatâs inside,â Aidan retorts, âYouâre just a snob, and refuse to acknowledge that other people have rich inner lives, just like you do.â
âSave me your idealistic speeches about free love and the beauty of the human spirit. How you can come from where youâre from, handle the shit you handle in your line of work, openly acknowledge that humans are scum, and yet still enjoy them like little snowflake gift boxes, is simply beyond me.â
âIâm full of imagination,â Aidan sniffs.
âYouâre full of bullshit. Youâre just easily bored and like to fuck,â Sylus baits him, knowing that Aidan is actually sincere.
âExcuse you!â Aidan does not disappoint. âHow dare youâand what an accusation, coming from you, the man who can get bored in the middle of murdering someone. How do you even know that your obsession can retain your interest in the long run?â Aidan lobs back.
Sylus just smiles, with teeth. His fascination with you was already gigantic before he laid eyes on you again. It has only grown, the longer he gets to spend time with you. Your mix of strength and fragility. The unpredictability of your pleasure and your anxiety. Your blood thirst and your compassion. How can he ever get bored, when he has no idea what the next expression on your face will be? When he has no idea how youâll manage to misinterpret the obviousness of his devotion to you, his endless patience, his worship?
âOh god, never make that face again. Iâm going to be sick. Youâre so in love and I hate it,â Aidan gags exaggeratedly, like a cat hacking up a hairball.
âThen donât ask questions you donât want the answer to,â Sylus advises.
Aidan hangs his head for a moment, hands on his hips. When he lifts it, he looks more serious than Sylus has seen him in awhile. âJoking aside, Sylus. How do you know that if things go south between you, the hunter wonât turn on you? This is a huge risk not only to you, but everyone you care about in this organization if youâre taken out.â
Sylus sits heavily back in his chair. He spins it a little, from side to side, as he thinks of how best to answer in a way that Aidan can understand. âI wonât let things go south between us. I will do whatever it takes to make my kitten happy, so that theyâre never tempted to turn on me.â
âEven you canât guarantee that. Love is messy, and itâs so close to hate. Especially when you begin that love with torturing them and using your evol on them without their permission,â Aidan says, wincing, as if heâs regretful about being so brutally honest.
âI have plans in place to protect the people who need protecting, in case I fuck up so badly that my beloved is driven to taking me out. And if it comes to that, Iâll deserve it,â Sylus sighs. He appreciates Aidanâs concern, but every minute he spends expressing that care is another minute that Sylus is kept from being near you. âLet me worry about the risks. Your job is to keep the empire running while I fortify the foundation that will prevent your worries from coming to pass.â
Aidan looks like he wants to say something else, but after a moment, his shoulders slump. âWe just got you back. Donât get yourself in trouble again. And of course. You donât have to worry about the rest.â He straightens. âAnd now, if youâll excuse me, I have some puppy tails to pull.â He flicks a little wave in Sylusâs direction. âIâll see myself out. Toodaloo!â
Just as heâs reaching the door, Sylus remembers the last thing he wanted to ask of his left hand man.
âAidan.â Aidan jerks to a halt, and turns around, eyes narrowed, as if he can sense that whatever Sylus is about to ask will be a huge headache. âSet up a meeting with my architect, and get me a list of names.â
Aidan just stares at him for a beat. âDo I even want to know what type of names?â
âExperts in wildlife conservation. Particularly of the sealife variety.â
âYou want a meeting with your architect and a sealife conservationist.â Aidan says flatly.
Sylus just stares at him.
âMay I ask why?â
Sylus shows his teeth again. âIâve been informed that the base needs an aquarium for orphaned and injured fish.â
Aidan gapes, but then rolls his eyes so hard that Sylus is worried theyâll get stuck. âIâm thrilled that your hunter makes you so happy. Really. Just thrilled. But Iâm starting to get the feeling that theyâll also be the death of me, whether they take my tongue or not.âÂ
âSpare me your editorializing and just get it done,â Sylus forestalls further whining. Heâs getting increasingly impatient to get back to you.
Aidan groans, because he views it as a moral imperative to always make sure that everyone within a five kilometer radius understands the terrible sacrifices he must make as Sylusâs lawyer. âFine . Youâll have your list by the end of the week. But Iâm leaving before you can transmit any more demands from your kitten.â He sweeps out of the room in a huff and the door slams behind him.
Sylus sits for a moment as the door swings shut. He takes Aidanâs concern seriously, but even his furiously spinning mind has a hard time planning for a scenario where you turn on him. Not in this life, at least. He doesnât want to dwell on the past when the current you, so utterly sweet, so pliant in his arms, all of your spikes withdrawn for him and him alone, is walking around in his lair, with no plans to leave for the foreseeable future. He wants to rest too, while youâre here. He doesnât want to think about the past, or a future he has yet to secure. He simply wants to be with you.
He doesnât want to waste another minute. He stands and heads to the door.
* * *
You wake up.
All at once, on a gasp. Your heart is pounding. Youâre aching, aching, because you just woke up from a dream you canât remember and the only things that remain are the feeling of pleasure, of security, of desire reciprocated.
You lie there, eyes still closed, hoping that youâll be able to re-access the dreamâmaybe if you can fall back asleep quickly enough, you can pick up the severed thread again, return to whatever was giving you that feeling of a feast when youâre famished, a waterfall when you thirst, the weight of anotherâs body on you, in you, filling you so completely it eclipses that constant emptiness you carry with you through all of your days.
But despite all of your yearning, all of your effort, you canât return to whatever you were dreaming about. Only that feeling remainsâsafety. The certainty that youâre utterly cherished. That all of your worries from last night were simply little nightmares, extinguished upon your waking.
You remember where you are. Who youâre staying with. Who you were anguished about as you imagined him taking another to his bed. It all seems so silly nowâyou talking yourself into being sad, with no reason at all to believe that he would do so, when youâre the one he has invited into his home, youâre the one he wraps himself around at every opportunity, youâre the one who he insists he wants in his bed.
What a strange sense of double vision, or cognitive dissonance. Wishful thinking. Delusional fantasy. You know that there was a reason you were worried that Sylus would be seeing other people while you stay with him. But youâre now utterly convinced that such a worry is completely unfounded, so absurd as to make you laugh out loud. But you have no idea why you have this certainty now. It feels like someone reached inside your brain and flipped a switch, and though there was a logical reason to worry, you can no longer bring yourself to believe that Sylus would ever want another in his bed.
You feel insane.
You open your eyes, expecting to see the white canopy of the swinging garden fuck-bed above you, but you see the black, ornately carved ceiling of Sylusâs bedroom instead. You are certain you fell asleep in the greenhouse. How the hell did you wind up back in Sylusâs bed? The feeling of unreality intensifies.
You turn your head and feel an immediate sense of calm wash over you as you see Sylus sitting next to you, his glorious chest no longer bare, but clothed in a simple black sweater, his gold-rimmed reading glasses perched on his sexy hooked nose. He has his tablet in one hand. He looks down at you, one corner of his mouth lifted, and you have the most intense sensation that you know what his lips feel like. That you could map his tongue, recognize it by the feel of it in your mouth if you were blindfolded, its heft and insistence between your lips.
You feel insane.
âFinally awake, kitten?â he asks, nonchalantly. He reaches down and brushes his fingertips along your cheek.
âHow did I get here?â you ask, trying desperately to push the feeling of being pressed beneath his beautiful body into something soft out of your mind. Of soft silver fur under your hands. His voiceâ Yes, Beloved?
âThe better question is why werenât you here to begin with?â he snorts softly.
âWhat?â
He continues to look at you with that amused, barely-there smile. âNot fully awake, huh. Why did you go to the greenhouse when you were tired, when you had assured me that you would stay in my bedroom while you're here?â
You look away, back to his ceiling. The elaborate moulding is as extra as the rest of his place, but itâs so beautiful, you can hardly fault him for his preference for lovely things. If you can afford it, why not surround yourself with beauty? You just wish it wasnât such an oppressive black. But it belongs to Sylusâhe chose it, so you think you could tolerate it forever, given the whisper of a chance.
You donât want to answer his question. But that sense of security, assurance, safety , remains with you, even as you fail to comprehend where the fuck it could have come from. You feel brave enough to ask the question that was torturing you before you fell asleep. âCan you give me plenty of advance warning if youâre going to invite someone over forâŠâ you hesitate, trying to think of a more mature way of saying âsexy fucking fun times.â Nothing comes. âFor fucking? I donât want to get in the way,â you finish, lamely. But the thought of him actually wanting to fuck anyone else strikes you as so absurd that it doesnât even hurt to say it out loud. You donât think you even need to ask this question anymore, because you already know the answer.
But thatâs insane. And youâre a lot of fucking things, but you think youâre pretty well-grounded in reality. Youâre hyper-aware of realityâthe reality of being you, with all of your flaws, your broken pieces barely held together, which is part of your whole goddamn problem. If you were oblivious to your own weaknesses, to the reality of living in such a cruel world while being a walking open wound, you could strut around like a mediocre white man and feel entitled to everything, including Sylusâs exclusive affection.
âIs that why you snuck off to the greenhouse, instead of coming to nap in my bed like we agreed?â He sets his tablet aside.Â
âI never agreed,â you mumble, thinking about how he had said that if you found a room you liked better, you had a choice of where to stay. That conversation was left open-ended. There was never a deal.
âA technicality,â he dismisses your protest. âUnless you found a room that you like better?â he asks archly, setting his glasses on top of the tablet and leaning down, running his nose along your cheek.Â
Nothing has changed. No room, not even the greenhouse with its life and relief from the oppressive marble halls of his base, is more appealing than any room where Sylus is. You shake your head, and his lips brush the edge of your mouth.
âBut you were worried about me bringing other people to my bed, even though I have everything I want right here already,â he murmurs.
You close your eyes against the onslaught of sensationsâhis warmth, his scent, the feel of his skin on yours. You donât want to admit it, but now that your bizarre certainty has been confirmed, it feels silly to pretend otherwise. âYeah. I didnât want to⊠I didnât want to get in the way.â
âSo thatâs the reason you ran, again?â he asks, sinking lower, getting comfortable on his side facing you.
You just nod instead of answering, and itâs not because you want to feel his lips on your skin again.
âCome to me next time, when youâre worried about something like that,â he demands, but it feels like a plea.
That sense of safety is filling you, making you brave. You want to bottle it so that you can drink it every time you feel insecure in the future, despite how nuts itâs making you feel. âOkay,â you agree quietly.
âThank you, darling,â he smiles fully, and itâs so soft, you could die.
But hearing him say âdarlingâ is like a gunshot next to your ear while youâre sleepingâyouâre slammed into another reality, the sensation of Sylusâs hands on you, gripping your waistâhis heavy body pressing yours into warm sand, sucking on his tongue, reveling in the feeling of a part of him filling you upâ
You canât. You canât. Youâre delusional, no matter how real the memory feels.
âDarling,â you choke, trying so hard to sound unaffected. âThatâs new.â
âDo you dislike it?â he asks, brushing some hair from your cheek, resting his hand on the side of your head, thumb drifting along the line of your jaw.
You love it. You want him to repeat it, over and over, until you forget your own name. âI suppose itâs better than âkitten,ââ you grumble.
âBut I thought that you were okay with being called kitten, as long as it was me doing the calling,â he teases.Â
You scowl at him.
âThen, darling,â he pauses dramatically, like the big drama queen he is. âWas the only reason you ran, again, because you were worried I wouldnât warn you if I had a guest? Nothing else was distressing you?â
No matter how safe you feel, no matter how assured you are now that for as long as youâre in his home, he doesnât want anyone else around but youâyou canât bring yourself to admit this to him. You can hardly admit it to yourself. Not wanting him to be with others implies a sense of ownership, and you know that he is not yours. In any way, shape, or form. How can you be possessive of something that doesnât and never will belong to you? It does not matter how much even thinking that he doesnât belong to you sends a feeling of wrongness through you that is almost physically painful.
You shake your head.
âNo, nothing else was bothering you? Or no, I lose this round of the guessing game?â He watches you for a few moments, the movement of his thumb so soft against your skin.Â
âI win,â you say, feeling wobbly, feeling safe, feeling unhinged, feeling invincible. He doesnât belong to you, he wants you and only you, As if I would ever want anyone else in my bed, now that youâve been in it. You can hear his voice in your head, saying things that you donât dare dream of him saying.Â
âNot ready yet, then,â he says, and it almost sounds sad. But his face doesnât change. âWell, there will be other rounds of our game,â he says lightly, a clear transition. Heâs letting it go, and you are relieved. âIn that case, are you hungry?â
Hell, if youâre in the process of losing your mind, you might as well do it on a full stomach.
âI could eat a horse,â you answer, trying to match his light tone.Â
âThat can be arranged. But Iâm rather attached to the ones in my stables, so weâll have to outsource your request,â he says, one sharp canine peeking from behind his top lip.
âSylus!â Youâre horrified. âItâs just an expression.â
âI told you that you could have anything. You have only to ask,â he shrugs.
Now youâre horrified and curious. âHave you eaten horse before?âÂ
The canine gleams in the dim light of the lamp on his nightstand. âThere are few things that I havenât eaten, darling.â His hand moves from the side of your head, down, until he slips one long finger between your throat and his tie still secured there. He tugs, gently. You remember that you donât have any of your own clothes, and youâre still wearing his. âThere are places where eating horse is as customary as eating beef. But I never really cared for it.â
âThatâs a relief, somehow,â you say, even though itâs ridiculous to mourn the horses that fed him, when you ate the steak he served you earlier with such enjoyment. Itâs all cruel, in the endâthe necessity of survival which depends on anotherâs suffering. Your heart hurts, so you reach up and rub it. His blood-bright eyes follow the movement of your hand.
âMy tender-hearted kitten,â he whispers, with that same strange sad tone in his voice. âSometimes we must do things to survive that deprive another of life. Do you also mourn the wanderers you have to kill?â
You look down at his strong throat, the pale, soft skin there. So thin, fragile, with his fast pulse beating beneath. âSometimes, when theyâre particularly beautiful. When itâs so obvious that theyâre only following their nature, and that their violence isnât a result of cruelty, like people. Theyâre just made that way.â
âSo you donât regret the people you have to kill?âÂ
You would like to lie, and say that you regret it deeply. That youâre as generous toward your fellow humans as you are toward wild beasts, to the beef on your plate. But you promised Sylus youâd be honest with him, if to no one else. You shake your head.
âSometimes, the sense of satisfaction I get when Iâm forced to put down someone I know who has done horrible thingsââ you whisper, closing your eyes. âItâs frightening.â
âKindred spirits,â Sylusâs deep voice, the warmth of his breath, envelop you.Â
Are you and he really so alike? You had snarled at him, when you first met him, that you and he were not the same, that you would never be the same. You had snarled it at yourself, as much as at him. You open your eyes, and his eyes are all you can see. He looks so happy, hearing you admit the worst of yourself. You realize that you hardly know anything about this man. His past. His family. What he was like as a child. His hobbies, if he even has any. All you know is that he is a killer, a businessman. And that he touches you with the tenderness of a man handling something priceless. Thatâs all. Yet here you are, his hands on you, still gently tugging on a tie wrapped around your throat. Here you are, so attached to him already that the thought of him bedding another feels like your aether core mutilated heart is shredding itself. How did this happen?
You want to know everything about him. You tell yourself that itâs not because youâre ravenous to unravel his mystery, to be sated from the knowing, and cherish him the more for it. You tell yourself that maybe, the more you learn, the more your heart will ease, and familiarity will breed contempt. Maybe youâll be able to let him go when this is over, if you know all the ugly parts of him, all of his annoying traits like everyone has. You decide to ask him about when the fake dating will start, so that youâll have an excuse to ask him to share as much as heâs willing about himself with you, as he practices sharing himself with his beloved.
As if I would ever want anyone else in my bed, now that youâve been in it.
You shake your head. Youâre not his beloved. Why wouldnât he just tell you, if you were?
Would you have believed me, if I had told you that I wasnât behind your familyâs murder?
You close your eyes again. You feel insane.
I expect you to remember what you just said, when this is over.
You canât. You canât. If youâre wrongâ
You open your eyes again. Youâre here now. Youâre here now, and he has the tail of the tie clasped softly in his palm, and heâs gently pulling it so that it tightens on your throat, a hairâs breadth, and then releases. It feels good. You want him to pull harder. You want to know everything about him, and forget everything else. Youâre in a dream, and you donât have to wake up yet. Youâre not insane. Itâs just the certainty one sometimes has in a dreamâyou know something to be true, even though you donât know how you know. Sylus wants you, and only you with him right now. Youâre going to indulge.
âTo be clear, I donât want you to serve me horse,â you tell him, pulling back a little so that the tie tightens against your throat again. He inhales sharply, but the corner of his mouth lifts.
âAs you wish. Letâs go to the kitchen. You can choose something that you do want me to serve you.â He pulls a little harder on the tie and you let out a soft gasp.
You want him to curl it around his fist, pull you to him, devour you in a way you feel like you know, with a strange certainty, that he would. But you canât tell him that. Not yet. If youâre wrongâ
You open your eyes. Sylusâs face is flushed, his bright eyes narrowed on the tie, on your throat.
âI want to go to the kitchen, but I donât have any of my own clothes,â you say softly, needing desperately to break this spell before you do something that you canât take back.Â
Sylus looks confused for a moment. âDo you need your own clothes?â
âDo you want me to walk around in your oversized clothes the whole time Iâm here?â
âI wouldnât mind at all, but I donât need it. Did you not find anything to your liking from the selection of clothes in your size in the dressing room?â he asks, lifting an eyebrow. âI know youâre spoiled, but I didnât realize to this extent,â he says, not sounding displeased at all.
âWhat clothes?â
Something in Sylusâs face changes. âDid you not⊠explore the dressing room?â
You shake your head. âMephisto was watching me, and I didnât want to upset him by touching anything I shouldnât,â you shrug. âSo I just grabbed what I could see.â
Sylus laughs softly. âWhy would Mephisto get upset by you touching anything in this house?â
âBecause itâs your house, and Iâm an interloper, and he squawked at me when he saw me touching your ties.â
âAnd yet youâre wearing one.â His eyes flick down to your neck again.
âOkay, so I was being petty after he squawked.â
Sylus pinches the bridge of his nose. âSo you thought I didnât arrange for you to have clothes youâd be comfortable in. And you thought that Mephisto was⊠surveilling you.â
Youâre confused. âUm, is that not the case? And then you sent the twins to show me around to make sure I donât go anywhere Iâm not supposed to.â At his pained look, you rush on. âI get it. You probably have a lot of valuable stuff in here, and just the intel about the layout of your base is probably even more valuable.â
Sylus sighs and drops his hand. âDo you trust me?â
You stare at him. Do you trust him? You let your eyes drift from his beautiful eyes, to his regal nose. His soft silver hair sweeping messily over his forehead. Would you be here, lying in his bed in his criminal headquarters at the pinnacle of the N109 Zone, if you didnât trust him? He apologized for hurting you when you first met, and promised never to do so again. Heâs been nothing but kind to you since those first long days with him. Heâs promised never to use his evol on you without your permission. He said that once given, he never breaks a promise. And you believe him. Of course you trust him.
âYeah, Sylus, I trust you,â you say softly.
âOkay,â he says, sitting up, pulling the tie gently with him so that you come too. You sit, legs tucked under yourself, as Sylus sits on his own knees, and very gently begins to untie the tie. The silk whispers along your skin as it falls away from your throat. He then lifts it slowly, watching your reaction. But you just sit still, letting him sweep it across your eyes as he blindfolds you, securing it at the back of your head. Itâs comfortable.
You feel him take your wrist and tug softly, and you go with him. Your feet hit the soft rug, and you follow where he leads, enjoying the warmth of his calloused hand on your wrist, enjoying the mystery of where heâs leading you.
After an unexpectedly short amount of time, he stops. You feel cold as the warmth of his body disappears, and you hear what sounds like doors opening, or cabinets. He returns to you, and his delicious scent fills your senses. He undoes the knot, and the tie falls away.
Youâre in his dressing room, towards the back where you didnât venture earlier. Door after closet door is open, and you see rack after rack, shelf after shelfâclothes that look like the ones you have at home. Athletic wear. Hoodies. Comfortable clothes you would wear on your days off. But also clothing that you donât have in your own closetâformal wear. Club clothes. Expensive fabrics. Pair after pair of a variety of sneakers, boots, dress shoes.
âNew rule. The next time you are faced with two possibilitiesâwhen you think that what you perceive could be negative, but could also be positive, try to consider that the positive is true,â he says gently, placing his big hands on your shoulders and leaning down a little to meet your gaze. âI had Luke and Kieran fetch some things from your home that I thought would make you feel at ease here. The earring. The plushie you hug the most often. Your phone charger. Your laptop is in my office. But I didnât want them to go through all of your things, and they have no interest in invading your privacy. I was hoping you can make do with new clothing that I thought youâd like, as well as your own care products while youâre here. If youâre missing anything, just tell me, and Iâll arrange for it to be sent.â
As he speaks, you feel your eyes getting hotâin dawning horror, you realize that youâve started to cry. Why the fuck are you crying? You donât want him to see, but youâre helpless under his big hands keeping you grounded. You take a big, shuddering breath. All of this kindness hurts. But Sylus isnât done hurting you.
âAnd Mephisto isnât following you to surveil you. Heâs programmed to greet you, and to follow you in case you need backup and company. If you donât have your phone on you, you can still reach me, wherever you are in the house, through him. Thereâs also an app on your phone for you to change his settings if you want. If you donât like his voice module, you can make him meow.â Sylus slowly pulls you to him, looking down into your face. He thumbs the tears from your cheeks, brings them to his mouth, and rubs the moisture across his bottom lip. He then pulls you closer, hugging you tightly to his chest. âAnd I sent Luke and Kieran with you to see the house because the last time you were here, you were really scared. Since I had to meet with Aidan, I didn't want you to be alone, but also didnât want to force you to sit caged in my room until I could show you around.â
You press your face into his chest, breathing against his rapid heartbeat, feeling all the anxiety and sadness of the tour and return to the greenhouse draining out of your body.
He leans down and presses a kiss to your bowed head. âIf youâre unsure of my intentions, even after all thisâif you consider the positive possibility and canât quite believe it, then just ask me,â he says softly into your hair. âThereâs no need to torture yourself with me.â He lifts your chin, and his barely there smile lifts his mouth. âThatâs my job. And there will be no doubt when I actually intend to torment you.â
You smile through your stupid embarrassing tears, laugh a little wetly. âItâs true. Subtlety isnât your strong suit.â
âYou know that much, at least.â
âHow could I miss it?â you ask.
âGood fucking question. How could you possibly miss so much?â he nudges your forehead with his forefinger.
You scowl at him. You feel light. And with the relief, comes the hunger. âDidnât you promise to feed me? Iâm starving,â you gripe, refusing to think about what else youâre missing.Â
I can promise you that whomever youâre thinking my 'crush' is, itâs not the person you're thinking of.
The only way he could have promised that is if he knew that youâd never consider yourself a possibility.
And Sylus says he always keeps his promises.
âWell, I canât let my spoiled kitten get any more hungry,â he interrupts your thoughts.
You shake your head. âIt would be terrible if I end up having to eat you because Iâm so hungry,â you tease, but he just lifts his eyebrows as if intrigued.
âWould it be so terrible though?â he asks. You pull back and gently push him toward the door.
âGo, make me something delicious while I get dressed,â you order him with a laugh.
âI see how it isâ just a little reassurance, and suddenly youâre bold enough to give me orders." He tucks his thumbs into the pockets of his black, worn looking jeans. âFinally,â he says, looking incredibly satisfied, before disappearing in a whoosh of air, scarlet-ink mist, and feathers that float gently toward you before falling to the floor.
You turn, sighing happily at the sight of all of these new clothes stretching before you. You donât deserve this. Youâve never been a big shopper. Budget too tight, too much ammo and manga to buy instead, when you practically live in your hunter uniform. But you spotted some yoga wear from a brand that is wildly expensive but makes the softest, best fitting shit youâve ever put on your body. You shake yourself. Indulge. Indulge. Indulge.Â
After youâve checked your bandages and cleaned up a bit in the bathroom, you drift through the base and find Sylus in the kitchen, as promised. Soft lighting from floor lamps and recessed fixtures hold back the N109 Zoneâs night stretching beyond the kitchenâs large windows. Soft classical music accompanies the sound of Sylus digging around in the huge fridges, the clatter of a pan placed on the gas burning stove.
âSo youâll be cooking personally for me today? Not your chef?â
âNot my chef,â Sylus confirms. âIâm the the chef today,â he smiles slightly. âSit.â He points to the bar stool on the other side of the massive kitchen island.
âI can cook,â you protest. At Sylusâs doubtful look, you defend yourself. âItâs true. I can cook. Xavier loves it when I have the time and energy to make something and invite him over, because itâs fucking hard to cook for only one person,â you say mournfully, suddenly worried about how Xavier will feed himself while youâre not there to ensure he eats vegetables along with his ramen. But he survived long before he became your partner. Heâs a big boy, you tell yourself.Â
âOh, I bet he does,â Sylus says under his breath. âAnd I am cooking because I thought you would want to give your abused feet a break.â
You squint at him. âThey hurt, but theyâre still functioning.â
âAgain, just because theyâre functioning doesnât mean you have to use them more than necessary. And I believe you when you say you can cook. But do you actually like to cook? Or do you feel like you have to, because itâs cheaper than delivery?â Sylus asks, breaking an egg into a bowl. âWhile youâre here, I donât want you to do anything that you donât actively enjoy doing. Youâre not here to survive. Youâre here to recover.â
Youâre so touched by his words that it takes a moment for you to get your mouth to answer him. Somethingâs wrong with your eyes again, and your throat is suddenly tight. You clear it. âDefinitely the latter,â you admit, thinking of a million other things that youâd rather be doing than cooking yet another meal. You often wish you could just slurp all your nutrition from a pouch and be done with it. âBut I do like baking. That doesnât count as cooking, because the result is fun.âÂ
Sylus laughs softly. âThen when you feel up to it, you can teach me how to bake your favorite things, because thatâs something I never really do. In the meantime, when chef isnât here and whatever sheâs left behind in the fridge for heating up isnât to your taste, Iâll cook for you. Deal?â
You watch Sylusâs big hands gently crack more eggs, grind some salt and pepper in the mixture, fling a little bit of butter onto the now hot pan. You could get used to this beautiful creature preparing meals for you. And you could get used to baking delicious things, and feeding each bite to him by hand. Youâre here now. Youâre going to indulge. âDeal,â you smile. âBut while youâre doing that, I need coffee. Can you point me in the direction of your coffee shit, coffee maker, and mugs?â
Sylus pauses. âI donât have a coffee maker.â
You stare at him. âWhat do you mean you donât have a coffee maker.â
âI mean, I have a french press. But I donât have a drip coffee maker.â
You squint at him. âYou have a fucking ice rink in your villain HQ, and you donât have a coffee maker? You make your coffee, by hand, every morning? Do you also insist on hand grinding the beans with a mortar and pestle every time you want a cup? Are you as much of a coffee snob as a wine snob?â
âArenât you sharp-tongued for a kitten who is depending on me for its caffeine fix.â Sylus sounds infinitely amused.
âIâm just consistently in awe of all of this means you have at your disposal, and yet you do nothing with it. And Iâm assuming that since you donât have a normal coffee maker, youâre also too much of a snob to have one of those fancy as fuck espresso machines that can make whipped foam, along with an entire fleet of flavor syrups on tap.â As you talk, you become more distressed. âOh my god, Sylus. Youâre a hipster billionaire. Youâre like, the worst of everything wrong with our capitalist society,â you say forlornly. Why canât you be nuts about a normal man? Whatâs wrong with a guy with a tidy little flat and a drip coffee maker? A nice accountant whose only crime is jaywalking, maybe a little tax evasion, for a treat, every year when filing. But no, you want to have the stuck up edgelord who can explode people with his mind and who thinks even professional espresso machines are too plebeian for his refined taste buds.
Sylus is just staring at you, an eyebrow lifted. âWhat I hear you saying is that you want a fancy as fuck espresso machine. Is that correct?â
You sigh in resignation. Your heart wants what it wants. âWhat you hear me saying is, okay, Sylus, where is the french press, the coffee beans, the grinder Iâll no doubt have to grind them with, and your mugs?â
âThe espresso machine will be here when you wake up tomorrow. As for the french press, beans, grinder, and mugsâŠâ he smirks at you as he points to one of the cupboards over the long, black marble kitchen counter.
You slip from the stool and go to open the indicated cabinet, finding the promised french press and tasteful glass jar of whole coffee beans. Of course even his storage containers are fancy and pretty. But you stop short, as you notice Calebâs gift and the CUNT mug sitting on the shelf next to the coffee supplies.
You blink. You blink, and turn to look at Sylus, who is now busy scrambling the eggs. âYou brought Calebâs mug,â you breathe.
âI told you, I wanted you to have the things here that make you comfortable,â Sylus shrugs, not turning away from the eggs.
You could cry again. The thoughtfulness of this asshole takes you by surprise, every single time. But you donât want to cry. You want to enjoy. You whip around and march over to Sylus, who is still serenely stirring the eggs. You peek around to catch his eye, ensuring that he knows youâre there. His red gaze flicks to you for a moment, returns to the eggs. You then step behind him and wrap your arms around his waist, resting your head against his broad back.
Your warning must have been successful. He doesnât throw you to the floor, or even stiffenâhis shoulders seem to relax, and he leans back a little, as if trying to sink into your hug. He puts the hand not stirring the eggs on your forearm, as if to hold you there.
âThank you,â you whisper, squeezing tighter.Â
âItâs nothing,â he says, as the scent of butter and eggs, the soft sound of cellos, the dark night and warm lamplight surround the two of you.
âItâs everything,â you counter.
âYou deserve to be harder to please,â Sylus grumbles, turning off the burner. He turns, and you try to step away, but he keeps his hold on your forearm until heâs fully facing you. He leans down and scoops you into his arms, encouraging you to wrap your legs around his waist. He then just stands there, hugging you tightly to him. You hug him back, resting your chin on his shoulder, eyes closed to better soak in the feeling of just holding him, of being held.
âYour eggs will get cold,â he says after a while, regretfully.
You just squeeze him harder. Youâve eaten worse.Â
You feel him laugh softly, your chest vibrating with his amusement. âAs you wish."
Suddenly, the moment is shattered with a ruckus like a herd of elephants pounding down the hallway, along with a crash, gleeful laughter and yelps.
âCheater, tripping is cheating, cheater cheater cheater!â Luke roars.
âThe first rule of race club is there are no rules in race club,â Kieran bellows, voice closer to the doorway, until suddenly itâs filled with two grown, grappling men, big biceps straining as they each try to prevent the other from entering the kitchen first.
âNo⊠you⊠donât!â Luke pants, wrapping his arm around Kieranâs neck in a chokehold and trying to drag him back into the hallway.
âOww, my throat, Luke, my throat still hurts,â Kieran whines. Luke looks stricken and immediately lets go, only to find himself shoved back further into the hallway as Kieran cackles and comes careening into the kitchen, socked feet sliding along the smooth, marble floor until he crashes into the kitchen island. He lets out a loud whoop, throwing his arms in the air. âKitchen-race champion, kitchen-race champion,â he chants as Kieran scowls at him from the doorway.
âThat was a dirty trick,â he seethes. âYou know I wouldnât ever want to really hurt you.â
âI keep telling you that youâre too gullible,â Kieran smiles at him fondly. âYou know all is fair in love and the kitchen race game.â
âSome love,â Luke snorts, and then his eyes widen as he seems to notice you and Sylus behind the kitchen island for the first time. You turn to look at Sylus, but his eyes are on your face, as if he hasnât stopped looking at you the entire time youâve taken in the twinsâ skirmish, as if what just occurred is daily life at Onychinus HQ and not even worth looking at. You glance back at the twins.
Kieran turns his head to follow Lukeâs gaze and then straightens as if at attention. âOh, apologies boss! We didnât know you wereâŠâ he takes in how youâre attached to Sylus like a koala. âYou were preoccupied in here.â
You look back at Sylus, but he just stares at you. Okay, if heâs not going to say anything, you will. âWeâre not preoccupied. Sylus was just making eggs.â You cough a little. âSylus, you can put me down now.â
He just hugs you tighter.
âEggs? Oh, can we have some? Iâm starving after my big stupid cheater of a brother scared the shit out of me by acting hurt,â Luke grumbles, sending Kieran a dirty look. Kieran holds out his hand, and despite his indignation, Luke slides into the kitchen on his socks like an ice skater and takes Kieranâs hand, who then wraps his brotherâs arm around his own shoulders.Â
âLet that be a lesson. How to fake out your opponent, and how not to be so gullible, even with me.â Kieran reaches over and rubs his fist into Lukeâs bouncing curls. Luke ducks his head and sweeps Kieran into a chokehold again, who just laughs. âThatâs it,â he crows, and the two tussle like a couple of puppies.
âI canât make coffee if you wonât let me go,â you say softly to Sylus amidst the racket the twins are making.
âDo you really want to make coffee now?â he asks, turning, setting you on the counter and simply standing between your legs. Youâre getting the feeling that he likes this position, because it puts your face a little closer to his if the surface youâre sitting on is high enough.
âWhy wouldnât I?â you ask curiously.
âItâs getting late again. Between the tour and your nap, itâs closer to the time I go to bed now. Youâll be up all night if you have caffeine now.â
âThen why didnât you say so when I first asked about the coffee?â You tilt your head.
Sylus just looks bored. Youâre learning that he does this when he isnât interested in answering you, when youâre most interested in the answer. Suddenly it dawns on you. âYou wanted me to see the mugs.â
He just lifts his hand and fiddles with the hem of the soft long sleeved shirt youâre wearing. âNow you know where they are, in case Iâm not around,â he shrugs.
You lean forward, placing both of your palms on his cheeks. He sucks in a breath, but stays still. âThank you,â you say.
âYouâve already said that, and Iâve already said itâs nothing,â he answers, his stubble shifting under your hands.
âIf weâre not going to have coffee, and itâs almost time to go to bed again, what did you have in mind for after we eat?â you ask, running your thumbs under his lovely eyes, indulging, indulging, not worrying about anyone else, not worrying about tomorrow or the day after. There is only today, every day, until this is over.
âWhat do you want to do?â he asks, leaning in, letting you pet him.
You think about it. Youâre still so tired. You think youâll probably be tired for weeks, until youâve slept enough to make up for your enormous sleep deficit of the past year, however long that takes. Your feet hurt. You just want to be near Sylus. Heâs asking you what you want to do like he intends to do it with you. So instead of worrying if thatâs the case, if youâre misunderstanding something, you say what you want.
âI want to start fake dating you,â you say. His eyes widen a little, and then he frowns.
âFake dating?â Kieranâs voice cuts through your thoughts, and you realize that the twins had stopped roughhousing enough to overhear your conversation.
âWhat do you mean, fake dating?â Luke asks, looking between the two of you.
âOh, your boss just asked me to help him practice dating so that he can successfully woo the person heâs in love with,â you say, the picture of cheerful helpfulness. This is already enough. Youâre happy to help. And youâre going to indulge the fuck out of pretending that heâs looking at you, instead of imagining the other person heâd like to have in his bed more than you. Because you canât imagine itâs you. You canât. Because if youâre wrongâ
Kieran and Lukeâs mouths drop open. They look at each other, and then look at Sylus.
âWhat the fuck, bossââ Luke begins, as Kieran says âFor someone so intelligent, you can be so stupidââ before Sylus cuts them both off.
âTake some of the prepped meals that chef left in the fridge and then leave us.â
For a second, they both look like they want to argue, but then they dutifully snap their mouths shut in unison, and you get that strange feeling of uncanniness again, like theyâre just one person who happens to have two bodies. They efficiently go to the fridge, grab some containers of what must be the prepped meals, and leave you and Sylus alone in the kitchen, now with only classical violin filling the silence.
âWas that a secret?â you ask, feeling bad if you just made Sylus lose face with his employees.
âI have nothing to hide when it comes to you,â he says. âBut they donât need to know every detail of my personal life, even if they may disagree with that statement.â
âOkay,â you say, still feeling bad for some reason.Â
He touches your chin, lifts it. âWhat did you have in mind when you said you want to start fake dating?â
âWhen we talked about me helping you, you seemed to be okay with the idea of practicing sharing parts of your life with your crush. I was thinking maybe while Iâm staying with you, you can already start.â You smile at him, hoping he canât tell how much you want him to say yes.
âAm I not already doing that?â he asks.
You tilt your head. Okay, so he has invited you into his home, showed you around. But you still know so little about him. âI guess so,â you say. You feel a bit silly now. Maybe you were hoping for too much. Maybe heâd rather get on with his normal routine, and isnât interested in any usefulness you have to offer at the moment.
Youâre suddenly really tired again. You want him to back up, to stop looking so closely at your face. âThe eggs are cold now,â you say, trying to keep your hand still, trying to resist the urge to dig your nails into your thigh. Heâs right there. He asked you to hurt him instead. You canât hurt him, so you canât hurt yourself.
âThen Iâll make new ones,â he says, still watching you like a hawk eyeing a mouse about to bolt from hiding.
Youâre not hungry anymore. You hate the yo-yo of your emotions. You want to be as unruffled as the man in front of you. Youâre hoping that the more rest you get, the longer you have to recover, youâll regain some semblance of equilibrium, some resistance to the rawness of the feelings hemorrhaging from your heart. But you know if you wonât eat, your blood sugar will crash and youâll be left feeling faint.
âNo worries. Do you have string cheese or something? Just something to keep me from feeling lightheaded?â
âI'm not feeding you logs of trash cheese while you're a guest in my home," Sylus tsks, probably affronted at the mere suggestion that he would have string cheese in his house. "What else do you want me to share with you about my life?â
âWhat?â You were just talking about cheese. Now you're being interrogated.
âYou said you wanted to start dating. That you were interested in me sharing parts of my life with you. What else do you want me to share with you about my life?â he says slowly.
âOh. Itâs really nothing. Youâre right, you are already sharing a lot by having me here.â
âI didnât say that.â
âHuh?â
âI didnât say Iâm already sharing a lot, as if you were asking for too much. I said, âAm I not already doing that?ââ because I thought I was sharing my life with you by inviting you here and hoping to spend time with you. So now I want to know what else you want me to share.â
âYou want to spend time with me?â you ask.
âWhy else would I ask you what you would like to do until itâs time for bed?â he asks, gently flicking your forehead.
âMaybe you wanted to occupy me so that you would be free to do whatever you really want to do,â you say, wincing a little.
Sylus hangs his head. Huffs a little laugh. âYour mind is incredible.â
You scowl at the top of his stupid, pretty head. âOkay, if youâre going to mock meââ
âI mean it. Your imagination is impressive if there is any ambiguity in a statement. We've been over this, and you promised to try to choose the positive interpretation over the negative."
You look away, feeling shitty for already breaking your promise. Sylus lifts his head and guides your gaze back to him with his forefinger on your jaw. "Habits are hard to break, I know. So let me rephrase. I would like to spend time with you until bed. How would you like to spend that time?â He places his palms on your thighs and smooths them soothingly up, and down.
The soothing gesture works. You feel the impending withdrawal into yourself, into your protective, sad little shell, reverse at his words, at his touch. You think about all the things you were shown today, and what the two of you could do for a little while together. Youâre too tired to read, so the idea of visiting his library is out. You donât want to work out, obviously, so the gym, the ice skating rink, even the poolâno good.Â
âYou have a home theater. Do you like movies?â
He perks up. âYeah, I do.â
âWanna show me what movies you like? Maybe we can watch one?â Youâre casual. The absolute definition of chill.
He eyes you for a moment. âWhen you say practicing to âshare my life,â is this your way of asking to know more about me?â
You shrug like itâs no big deal. Like youâre not terribly eager to know every single thing about him. âIf you want.â
âIf you wanted to know more about me, you could have just said so. No need to frame it in fake dating.â
âBut we made a deal. You wanted to practiceââ
He interrupts you. âAll right, we can date. But just ask if you have questions. And just assume that I want to spend time with you.â
âOur deal was fake dating,â you try again, because he keeps dropping the âfakeâ part and itâs doing things to your heart.
âWhatever you need to tell yourself, darling,â he lifts one corner of his mouth.
âBut thatâs the dealââ
âUh huh,â he says absently, lifting you from the counter with one arm, turning to the fridge, and rifling through it with his free hand. He manages to agilely balance a stack of containers. âThereâs a bar in the theater room, so we can get something to drink there,â he happily informs you.
âOf course you have a bar in there, you alcoholic.â
âNow, now, no need to call names,â he says serenely, carrying you and the food into the hall and heading towards the theater room.
Once there, he tosses you gently on one of the super soft, overstuffed in contrast to other furniture in the house, and of course ubiquitously black, leather couches that sits in front of a huge screen on the far wall. The couch is so soft you hardly bounce, just sinking into the cushion with a laugh. He sets the food containers on the low table positioned in front of the couch, between its two chaise lounge sections that stretch out on either side.
He sits down next to you, so close that his big thigh is squished against yours. âThe dvds are in the cabinet over there,â he says as he opens one of the container lids. âYou wanted to know what movies I like? Knock yourself out.â
You donât have to be told twice. You excitedly make your way to where he pointed and throw open a dark paneled cabinet door. Shelf after shelf, going all the way up to the high ceiling where youâre certain Sylus canât even reach, full of dvd after dvd. You run your fingers along their edges, reading titles silently as you go.Â
It appears that Sylus is a fan of classic films. You see titles that youâve never watched, but have heard in passing from cultural references or watching annual movie awards when youâre lucky enough to not be working through them during a particular year. Black and white films. Foreign films with directors youâve never heard of. As your gaze drifts over his collection, sounds of cabinet doors opening on the other side of the room serve as background noise. The clink of plates, of glasses, liquid being poured.
You donât think you see one film from the last decade in his collection. But maybe theyâre higher up.
âHow do you get up to the top? I donât see one of those fancy library ladders on a wheeled track anywhere. Does the great Sylus Qin resort to using a step stool?â You ask absently, still scanning the titles. He appears to be a big fan of horror movies. Youâre also a huge fan of horror, but you can recognize that youâre a bit of a barbarian in that youâve never watched the true classics. Maybe you can expand your cultural horizons while youâre here. Knowing more about classic film could come in handy while working undercover at pretentious wealthy bastard functions.
Your thought is interrupted as you yelp, having been lifted into the air by scarlet-ink tendrils and carried swiftly toward the ceiling, where youâre now hovering, eye level with the upper shelves of Sylusâs dvd collection. You look back down at him, where he isnât even looking at you as he is artfully arranging your movie snacks in little bowls and plates.
âA little warning would be nice,â you say drily.Â
âWhereâs the fun in that?â he teases. âCanât have you getting bored with me.â
You snort. âThatâs my line.â
One moment youâre floating leisurely near what looks like his Russian film section of his collection, and the next youâre being deposited onto his lap as he sinks back into the soft couch.
âThe presumption of people insinuating that even the possibility exists that I could ever be bored with you is astonishing,â he grumbles, and your heart hurts a little. Even other people can see how ill-suited you are for this mercurial, privileged manâa man who could have anything and anyone he wants, and has the propensity for boredom that goes along with it. âI donât like it.â
You just smile at him, because what can you do? âPeople are wise.â
Sylus scowls like he just sucked on a lemon. âOne other person, and he is a silly deviant and has been corrected, just as Iâm correcting you.â He places his hands on your shoulders, thumbs smoothing over the skin of your throat. âIn no universe could I ever be bored with you.â
âYou donât even really know me,â you say gently, letting your head fall forward under his soft touch. He slides one hand around and palms the back of your neck, squeezing gently.
âDonât I?â he asks.
âYou may know the ugliest parts of me because of your aether core. But you donât know my daily habits. My annoying quirks. How I brush my teeth. My favorite foods. My fondest memories. My pet peeves when it comes to lovers.â You lean your head back now, baring your throat to him, letting his big hand keep you upright. âAnd I donât know yours, either.â
âI know the most essential parts of you to be assured that Iâll never tire of learning about the details,â Sylus answers, shaking you gently.
You open your eyes, lift your head. âBut I donât know the essential parts of you, let alone the details.â
His wine dark eyes look so soft as they meet your gaze. âDonât you?â
You remember the feeling when you first met him. The voice in your head, urging you to devour him. Insisting with a violence that scared you that he was yours, to consume, to swallow, to feast. The recognition in you when you resonated the first and only time, when you couldnât tell where you ended and he began. You might not have an aether core in your eye, but maybe you do know the essentials of him. His cruelty. His violence. His single-minded pursuit of his goals. His steadfastness as he chases you, over and over again, as you run, over and over again.
I expect you to remember what you just said, when this is over.
You do remember what you said at Amnesia. And you remember a kiss that never happened, the taste of his tongue on yours that you canât possibly know. You feel insane.
âDo I?â you echo him.
âMmm,â he murmurs his confirmation. âAnd now we have all the time in the world for you to satisfy your kittenâs curiosity regarding the details.â
Maybe itâs okay to be a little insane in a dream.Â
âWhat movie do you want to watch?â you ask, leaning forward, running your nose along his, inhaling the scent of his skin.
He exhales, his warm breath soft and carrying the scent of some smoky liquor. âWhy donât you choose?â
âWhat if youâve seen it before?â
He turns his head a little, so that his lips brush the edges of your mouth. âIâve seen all of the films I own.â
âWonât you get bored rewatching?â You resist the urge to turn your own head, to meet his mouthâ you canât, you canât, not yet. What if youâre wrongâ
 âI wonât get bored. Iâll be watching through your eyes this time.â
âYou have so many, how can I choose?â
He smiles faintly against your skin. âWhat kind of movies do you like?â
You think for a moment. âI like all kinds of genres. Horror is probably my favorite, but only when Iâm in the mood. I think the movies I like the best tend to be character driven. When I care about what is happening to the people, what choices theyâre makingâwhen I want them to prevail over the conflict. Not just gritty and dark for the sake of being edgy. And I like happy endings unless itâs a horror film. Life is hard enough, without spending it watching depressing Russian films,â you smile against his cheek in turn before sinking into him, resting your chest against his, tucking your face into his neck. His hands drift up and slowly caress your back.
âSo you like fairy tales,â he says, but not dismissively. An observation.
âNo, youâre the one who likes fairy talesâthe original versions. Grim, unlikable characters being taught a lesson. Sad stories where no one wins, to confirm your cynical outlook of an unsalvageable world.â Youâre teasing him, a little. But you also think itâs true.
He huffs a laugh. âJudging my taste in films, just as you judge my taste in coffee, wine, home decor, occupationâthe list goes on. Iâm the one who should be worried that my darling will grow bored with me.â He pauses. âYou actually know quite a few details about me already, donât you think?â
Your mind drifts to all the time youâve shared with him, all the things you already know about him. Maybe heâs right, and you know more than you think. He has been showing you himself, every minute youâre together. Maybe if you manage to stop navel gazing and wallowing in insecurity, youâll learn even more.
âIn no universe could I ever be bored with you,â you echo him again.
âI'll hold you to that promise,â he sighs, wrapping his arms around you, hugging you tightly. Youâre getting so sleepy. If you donât start the movie, youâll be asleep before the opening credits are over.
âSo pick your favorite movie, Sy. I want to watch it through your eyes.â
His arms tighten even further, forcing a puff of breath from your lips. âIn a minute, darling. Stay like this, for a little longer.â
You nod, feeling his rapid-fire heartbeat under your own, slower heart. Itâs soothing, in a way that firing a real gun no longer is for you.Â
âIf you donât start it now, Iâm going to fall asleep,â you mumble, sinking further.
âThen sleep,â he says. So you do.
Sylus holds you in his arms, and for once, his mind is quietâno churning plans, no tweaking the spiderwebs of action and reaction, force and counterforce, push and pull, either for his business or to draw you ever closer to him. Heâs just a man, sitting with his heart in his handsâsafe and calm. He misses you, as he always does, when youâre so close but asleep. He considers joining you in your dreams again, just to make sure that theyâre as peaceful as you deserve, but decides against it. He skirted the edges of his promise to you by doing it once, even though he remains convinced that it was necessary. You were willing to share your fears with him after you woke upâhe just mixed up the order a little bit by reassuring you first and then asking questions second. But heâs unwilling to risk it again.
This is enough, for now. He feels the steady beat of your heart against his own submachine gun rhythm, and his pulse slows, slows, until for once, he feels like he can breathe fully without having to check behind himself, check the exits, check contingencies and backups, check the pulse in your throat to make sure youâre still here, youâre still real, youâre still letting him so close he can taste your skin when he inhales the scent of your neck. Youâre in his home, and you just had your almost-first, definitely not fake despite what you tell yourself, date. Watching a movie together, the most cliche, boring date of all, and you fell asleep before it even started. You called him something other than his full name for the first time, and not in a teasing way like crow man or good boyâan endearment, something no one else will ever have the privilege of calling him. It takes him a little while to figure out the feeling that has been spreading through him since you hugged him from behind in thanks for the lousy gift of a couple of mugs you already ownedâa feeling like how he has always imagined sunshine would feel on a mild summer day for a normal person.
Oh. He laughs a little breathlessly. Heâs happy.
If he wasnât aware of how much youâre already changing him, heâd realize it now, as he hugs you as tightly as he dares without waking you, feeling as foolish as Aidan waxing poetic about every new person being a gift with a surprise inside. Sylus doesnât need any other people to maintain his attentionâyou are the gift, a nesting doll puzzle box, a gift within a gift within a gift, and heâs so fucking happy youâre letting him open each of your secrets, one by one, that heâs dizzy with it. The ratatat of his heart fires, and fires, and fires. For the first time that he can remember, heâs looking forward to tomorrow, and the day after, and the day after that.
end note: My dear readers, once again I have failed to deliver big toys and action, but the plot has inched along very slightly with Sylus's conversation with Aidan, and hopefully the next part will contain MC having the run of Sylus's place and getting into some trouble with the twins and Noah if I recover from real world events and don't just crawl into a hole and hide for the next four years.

carcar 28 if you are still doing prompts :)
carcar pt 1; curse of obedience/canât disobey a direct order
âSo,â Oscar says, âif I were to sayââ
âDonât,â Carlos says, all urgent, eyes wider than Oscarâs ever seen them. âOscar!â
Heâll remember this moment after. Go back to it every so often, when his brain sees fit to carve out versions of himself to dissect. Savage, impulsive. Vindictive even. Couldnât even have picked something non-life threatening, like Drink this drip coffee, which I know youâd rather die than put on your tongue. Had to go for this.
âârun out into traffic, without lookingââ
Carlos stands up so fast the chair clatters behind him. Bit of a shock. Oscar looks around, waits for the crowd to laugh along, for him to be allowed in on the prank. The cafĂ©âs busy, people rippling past them to get to where they need to be. Carlos turns toward the door.
âCarlos,â Oscar says. The vacant look on Carlosâs face scrapes against Oscarâs bare skin like a grater. âWhat are you doing?â
Carlos gives no response, eyes trained only on the door. Dimly, Oscar wonders if this is how he looks under the helmet.
No, no. Even while racing, Carlos wouldnât look like this. Surely, his jaw would run askew, his teeth would find his lower lip, his eyes dance bright and hungry.
âCarlos,â Oscar says again. He barely registers his pulse spiking.
Two steps are all it takes for Carlos to get up to full speed, as if heâs got a rabid dog on his heels. Heâs a bullet shot out the door, a blur of red.
Oscarâs supposed to have reflexes made from lightning. Fastest in the world, isnât he? But he stares, uncomprehending, and stares some more through the endless bay windows, as Carlos, uncaring that the crosswalkâs sign is still red, dashes onto the road. He runs, cutting through the continuous stream of metal as if his body were made of something divine.
A car swerves violently, a honk sounds. The ignition Oscar needs to snap out of his daze. Combustion, power. He propels forward, mouth already formed around syllables.
âCarlos,â he screams. âCarlos, stop! Come back!â
He must not be able to hear me. That must be the only reason Carlos keeps running, narrowly avoiding a speeding motorcycle. What did he say, when Oscar was dismissing his confession as a joke? He saidâheâs being made to listen, right? To listen and obey. Oscar just has to reach him, so Carlos can listen.
Carlos is too far ahead, outstripping Oscar with an unrecognizable single-mindedness. Oscarâs yelling himself hoarse, but itâs too loud all around them, tires screeching, tearing at his ears. Chaos around them, Oscar unable to reign it in. Even in the rainiest conditions, heâd been able to find more grip than this.
The crosswalk melts onto the sidewalk, and for a blessed second, Oscar thinks itâs over, that Carlos has done all heâs needed to do, carried out the cruel task Oscarâs laid out for him like the gods before Heracles.
Then Carlos turns the corner, still running.
âCarlos!â Oscarâs face is wet, for some reason. A flickering image of Carlos meeting a car sears itself into the back of his eyelids, spills more liquid out. âCome back, please! Please, god. Come back.â
Clarity, even in panic. If heâs braved speeds most people canât comprehend, forces that could bend and even break a neck, then what is running blind into traffic?
He doesnât look as he steps off the curb this time. Adjusts his focus to match Carlosâs. Speeds up in a way that is second nature. A driver swearing at him, a blinding flash from a headlight too close for comfort, but Oscar keeps running. Slowly but surely gaining on his target, overtaking within his reach.
âStop,â he begs. âCarlos, you can stop now.â
Carlosâs feet ground to a halt.
Momentum carries him to a collision. Oscar flings his arms around Carlos, drags him out of the way just as a truck blares past their intended path.
--
âAsshole, you fucking asshole.â Big, gulping, uneven inhales. âWhy did I, why did I go to you, Iâm such an idiot, why did I even think you would, ah, fuck. Fuck.â His voice cracks into tiny pieces. âStupid, stupid. Such a fucking idiot.â
Oscar tightens his hold around Carlos. Dead manâs grip, heâs not letting go. Even though theyâre both shaking so hard each breath feels like a bruise. Carlosâs shoulder knocks into Oscarâs teeth, hard enough to cut his lip. Doesnât matter, heâs not letting go. Oscar tugs Carlos, still trembling, over to the wall of the deserted street theyâve found themselves in. He sinks to the ground, back against the wall, pulling Carlos down with him.
âBreathe,â he says, a little hysterically. âCarlos, come on. Breathe.â
Deep, deep breaths, swelling through both their bodies. Fuck, fuck. Was that also a command? Could he tell Carlos to stop breathing and would Carlos just stopâ
âBreathe!â Oscar nearly shouts, to force all other thoughts out of his head. âCarlos, listen to me, youâre alright.â
ââhate you,â Carlos is saying furiously. Oscar squeezes his eyes shut against the pain that lances through him. Nothing like the sting of his bleeding lip; this settles far deeper. âI canât believe I, you. You.â More air, sucked through rattling lungs. âI shouldnât have come to you.â
âWhy did you?â Oscar says brokenly. He squeezes Carlos to him, then even though he shouldnât, shouldnât be allowed to, buries his forehead in the dip between Carlosâs shoulder blades. Selfishly uses Carlos to buttress himself. âTell me.â
Another command, he realizes too late. Can he not even be in Carlosâs vicinity without being such a dickhead, fuck.
âI thought you wouldnât.â Carlosâs chest heaves, his throat forcing out words against his will. âOf all people. You wouldnât use it against me.â
âI wouldnât,â Oscar whispers, like the greatest hypocrite in all the earth.
Oscarâs never heard Carlos laugh like that, derisive, painfully disparaging. All those times before, when Carlos had teased him, even after a race mistake, heâs done so maybe a little mockingly, but gently all the same. Prodding at Oscar with his bared teeth, but carefully enough he never broke skin. And now he sounds like he would be happy to be wiped clean of Oscar entirely.
Oscar cringes, tries to hide by burrowing further into Carlosâs back. This must be what being flayed alive feels like.
âYou wouldnât!â Carlos says, voice raising high and thready. âAfter you tried to kill me. After you made me, made me run like a dog huh? Was that fun for you? You like that, huh?â
Carlosâs shoulders pull uncomfortably taut. His shaking slows, the drug of adrenaline siphoning away. The rhythm of his breath changes, stutters, then quickens. His throat releases something wounded. The arm Oscar has braced against Carlosâs chest catches stray droplets, running off Carlosâs chin.
Oscarâs never going to be able to forget the way Carlos sounds broken down. Canât do anything. Canât even say something like, Donât cry, for fear of stuffing all of Carlosâs tears back into him like a botched surgery.
He holds Carlos closer. Lips on the back of Carlosâs neck like heâs allowed, like he can impart Iâm sorry Iâm sorry Iâm so sorry Iâm so fucking stupid it will never happen again I promise. I promise.
âBreathe,â he says.
âLeave me alone,â Carlos says weakly.
 Nope, no. Never. âBreathe.â
âJust, leave me alone Oscar.â Carlos struggles in Oscarâs grip, a fish caught in a trap. He doesnât have the leverage to break free, winded as he is, with one arm tucked under his own shirt, fingers pinching his side so hard the fleshâs turned white.
âYouâre hurting yourself,â Oscar says softly. âPlease let go, Carlos.â
Carlosâs fingers unclench. He lets out a low, hurt whine, frustration, anger at his own helplessness, at having to listen to Oscar. Of all people. âFuck you,â Carlos says.
By the third time Oscar repeats it, his mindâs made up. âBreathe,â he orders. âCarlos. Iâm going to fix this.â
(put that guy in a situation prompts)

Okay so, I saw this a few weeks ago and I tried, I tried really hard to be just "Neat" and move on. But I can't, I can't stop thinking about this AU, I can't stop thinking about the logistics of it of the changes to dynamics that would take place as a result. So now all y'all get to read my rabid logistical analysis of this AU.
First and foremost, Yusuke Yukimura can NOT slap Keiko Urameshi even once it would ruin his good student rep because double standards, alas. At the same time, because Yusuke is a good-boy now, no perving on Keiko by lifting her skirt to look at her panties or anything. On the flip-side, I propose that Keiko Urameshi would flash panties and maybe bra at Yusuke Yukimura, to retain the casual perversion but it's really just to get a rise out of Yusuke (honestly I think that's why he casually pervs on Keiko in canon, to get a rise out of her) The teachers are always slut shaming Keiko and insinuating or just stating outright how she'll end up just like her mother, never mind that Keiko is a virgin and intends to wait till marriage in order to avoid ending up in her mother's situation. Because those teachers are assholes. Keiko and Kuwabara rivalry can NOT happen because even as a punk Kazuma Kuwabara is a good boy and will NOT hit girls, I see two solutions to this, however one solution would kinda ruin the whole Kuwabara/Hiei. Solution one; switch Kazuma and Shizuru's birth order but keep their personalities mostly the same as in canon, except Kazuma will be more like end of series or even a bit more mature given he had to help raise his little sister, and tried to raise her to be a proper lady, which didn't take nearly as well as Shizuru's lessons in 'being a man' did with Kazuma. Likely because Kazuma would never hit his little sister while Shizuru had no issues beating on her little brother (double standards yay /s) As a result, Shizuru is rebelling and being a rival punk girl with a little punk girl gang, to Keiko. As a result Kazuma/Hiei doesn't happen, he'd see himself as too old for Hiei, this DOES however open up the possibility of Shizuru/Hiei, which could be funny. However if we want to keep Kazuma in the group, and in love with Hiei, then the solution I propose is that Kazuma is constantly trying to defend Keiko from other punks, cause she's a girl and she the proceeds to beat the CRAP out of him and he never hits back because girl. Though this does also mean that Kazuma, while he might find Yukina frustrating won't be nearly as in your face about it because Yukina is also a girl. Now onto the logistic of an ALL MALE clan of Ice Apparitions. Honestly I'm picturing Immaculate conception M-Preg and that the Male Ice Apparitions can still father children, they just don't cause no ladies around, however they ALSO can become pregnant by outsider males, the problem is this can result in female children and they don't want females around. The question is, are these Male Ice Apparitions just as woman hating and considering them violent and evil and the source of all ills as the Koorime in canon do with men. OR do they consider women the course of evil in a more passive way, such as 'women being around makes men stupid and violent, so we just won't have women.' The former is funnier and also the more insane option but then the canon views of the Koorime is also kinda insane because even among humans women are just as capable of being violent as men it's just men are more encouraged and socialized toward violence for both recreation and solving their problems, as a group anyway not individuals, Given demons as a whole seem to be a least a little more, equal in violence between the sexes, that just makes the Koorime's views extra insane.
Oh right, Raizen. Raizen is still the Keiko's forefather, no changes there, not even in how he treats her compared to his treatment of Yusuke in canon. Honestly he might even think having a girl being the one to awaken his blood is pretty dope, after all the Urameshi fore-mother was a badass, why shouldn't his descendant also be a badass lady?
Hmmm just realized Gonzo Tarukane has the potential to be extra fucking creepy with Koorime Hiei, wonder if he'd even realize Hiei is male?Hmmmmmm I don't like thinking about this part, it would be awful and creepy regardless.
YU YU AU AU
in this alternate universe Keiko is the punk mazoku raised by a lush and Yusuke is the good boyÂ
Meanwhile, Yukina is a female fire demon rejected by the all-male ice apparition clan she and Hiei were born to
Also Kuwabara is in love with HieiÂ

Hii, can I ask an enemy to lovers with Franco Colapinto?
Itâs kinda more open ended than I intended it to be but if you want ( or anyone else is interested) I can try to make a bigger story out of this!! đ
Hope you enjoy it !
ââ
You had always found Franco Colapinto insufferable. From the very moment you joined the paddock, there was something about his smug grin and wild curls that got under your skin. He was talentedâthere was no denying thatâbut his cockiness drove you crazy. The two of you were always at odds, a rivalry fueled by every glance, every sarcastic comment thrown your way.
And, naturally, youâd been paired with him for media duties today.
âYou know,â Franco said, leaning against the wall, arms crossed casually as he glanced over at you, âyou donât always have to look like you want to punch me. Weâre just here to talk about the race. Smile, maybe?â You rolled your eyes, the movement almost hurting from how much youâve been doing it lately. Pinching your nose, you adjusted your jacket as you waited for the interview to begin. âIâm not sure whatâs more painful, Franco, sitting through this interview or pretending to like you.â
The driver chuckled, clearly amused by your sharp tone. âOuch. Come on, Iâm not that bad.â You almost snorted at that, âYeah, you kind of are.â
Franco pushed off the wall, taking a step closer. âAnd yet, here you are, stuck with me.â His lips were pulling into a smirk as he shrugged his shoulders.
Before you could respond, the interviewer called for you both to step forward. The questions came quickly, most of them focused on the upcoming race. But every time Franco answered, he made sure to include a little jab at you, something subtle, something that made your blood boil just a bit more.
âWeâve got a lot of good drivers out there,â he said smoothly, glancing at you with a teasing smirk, âsome of them a bit too competitive, though. Right, (Y/N)?â
You gave him a forced smile, hiding the urge to snap back. âJust trying to keep up with you, Franco.â
The interview wrapped up, and as soon as the cameras were off, you spun around to leave. But before you could storm off, Franco grabbed your arm gently, stopping you. âHey, wait,â he said, his voice surprisingly softer now, losing the playful edge. âYouâre always so quick to walk away.â
âBecause I donât want to deal with your crap,â you shot back, but there was less venom in your words than before. Something about the way he was looking at you made you pause. For a moment, there was silence. Francoâs grip on your arm loosened, and he let his hand drop to his side, his gaze lingering on you.
âI didnât mean to get under your skin..I mean I kind of did but-â he admitted, his expression a little more serious. âI justâmaybe I like pushing your buttons because⊠youâre one of the only people who pushes back.â You blinked, not expecting that. âWhat are you trying to say?â
âIâm saying I donât hate you, (Y/N). I thinkâmaybeâI admire you. A little too much.â
Your heart skipped a beat, caught off guard by the sudden change in his tone. âAdmire me? Youâve spent the past few months making my life miserable.â
âYeah, well,â Franco shrugged, his smirk returning, but it was softer now, almost playful. âMaybe I wasnât handling it the right way.â You narrowed your eyes at him, unsure of where this was going. âSo, what? Youâve been acting like a jerk because⊠you admire me?â
âMaybe more than admire,â he said, his gaze locking with yours. The way he looked at youâlike he wasnât joking anymore, like he actually meant itâsent a strange warmth through your chest.
The air between you shifted, the tension that had always been there suddenly taking on a different meaning. Maybe it wasnât hate after all. Maybe it was something else entirely.
âYouâre ridiculous,â you muttered, though there was no heat in your words anymore.
Franco stepped a little closer, his voice dropping to a whisper. âMaybe. But you donât hate me as much as you think you do, do you?â You stared at him, eyes searching his face as your heart was racing in your chest. Maybe he was right. Maybe, just maybe, the rivalry had been hiding something else all along.
With a small, almost imperceptible smile, you finally let your guard down, just a little. âI guess weâll find out.â Franco grinned, and for the first time, you didnât find it annoying.

Hey! I'm here again!
Can I request EJ, Hobo Heart, and Liu/Sully(separately and feel free to not do any of them if you can't think of anything) with a human S/O that just... bites. When it's affectionate bites, they'll make a "aaaaa" noise as they go for it, but when it's just plain aggressiveness... they just pounce and bite as hard as possible. Just like a dog or something!
EJ:
It's incredibly amusing to Jack. It's amusing for the fact that, as a feline demon (making him a predator demon, one with extremely sharp teeth built to pierce), he got himself a human that likes to chomp. You can't really deal any harm to Jack as his skin is so tough and with your human teeth you'd have to really, really intend to cause harm, so he doesn't mind at all when you get chompy with him. In fact, he thinks it's really, really cute, and he often tells you as much. The second he can feel you raising up to nom him, an adorable "Aahhhh" leaving your mouth, a smile is already blooming on his lips, and once you make contact he's bubbling with laughter, snorting at your happiness as you gently tug at his skin. He always wraps his arms around you and pulls you close, burying his face into your shoulder as you nibble away, overflowing internally with joy at how cute you are. Whenever you randomly jump at him and latch onto him with cute aggression bites he thinks it's doubly amusing, often rubbing your hair and questioning you on who you think it is that's the predator between the two of you. He'll tease you, saying he'll remind you that you're the prey between the two of you if he needs to, but it's just empty teasing. You can feel free to nibble on him whenever you want to, so long as you don't actually intend to cause any harm. Just don't make him want to start nibbling you back, as that's a much more risky behavior.
Hobo:
If you want to fluster and embarrass Hobo, this is certainly one of your guaranteed ways to do so. He always gets flustered from it, as you're pretty much his first real, true long-term partner, and you're certainly the first one to ever do something like this to him. He's not used to closeness and affection in general, so when you cutely bite him, holding him close as you do so it always has him blushing and making surprised little noises from it, his eyes looking anywhere but you because he's too sheepish to make eye contact with you. You always find this to be incredibly adorable, and it often makes you want to tease him more, which just makes him whine and bury his face into his arms because he can't handle it. You've gotta be careful with pouncing at him, and I don't know if I'd recommend it unless he can see you going to do it. If you pounce from behind it'll probably scare him, and his wings will puff up and he'll probably jump into the air, and he'd feel really, really bad if he ended up hurting you on accident in the process. So, just pounce from the front or announce yourself first. Regardless, always make sure to press a bunch of kisses around wherever you were biting, and then to his face, as it reassures him you're doing it out of love and affection and not as some sort of punishment or way to cause harm. He finds himself shocked at how he comes to look forward to the little moments when you nibble on him.
Liu:
You bite the Liu, the Liu bites back. Liu thinks you're the cutest in the world when you bite him, but he can't let you have all the fun, can he? Nope! So every time you start to nibble him, he nibbles on you too, getting his teeth on whatever part of your body he can reach, even if he has to tug your hand or arm toward his mouth so he can get at something. I can see him also racing you toward it, trying to nom on you before you can do it to him, making it a little competition between the two of you. He'll scoop you up into his arms and nip at any part of you he can reach, and if he's feeling particularly teasing, he'll tickle you while he does so until you're laughing and squirming as you try and get out of his grasp. Sometimes though, he'll fakely act like you're being too much, sighing when you nibble on him and shaking his head, patting yours and asking what he's going to do with you when you keep being so troublesome, though you both know he doesn't mean it. Whenever you go to more aggressively bite him, he has one of two outcomes. Either he gasps really loudly or cries out, acting as though he's actually being attacked, sometimes putting on such a good show you actually have to check in on him. The other is that he attacks right back, playfully growling at you while he pins you down and chomps all over you. To Liu, it's a fun, cute little thing that the two of you can do together, and he always welcomes it.

cw: alcohol mention, suggestive. narumi x f!reader. anatomy is mentioned (breasts). reader works for the jakdf as a seismologist and is specifically not japanese or from japan. | word count: 1.2k, reading time: 5 minutes.
âTachibana is such an asshole.âÂ
Narumiâs rant, the one that started while you gently scrubbed his back in the shower after scurrying back to your apartment hand in hand, has managed to continue all the way into your bedroom.Â
âI swear to anyone listening Iâm going to make him run until his legs fall off tomorrow.â
Tonight marked the third time the first division has invited you out to enjoy drinks and dinner with them in the three months youâve officially been here. They intentionally sat you and Gen next to each other, pouring gratuitous amounts of alcohol into both of your cups the moment they were emptied.Â
âThatâs not very nice,â you tut from your side of the bed, comforter still pulled down so your boyfriend can climb in beside you. He does so with a groan, instantly reaching for your chest to squeeze one of your t-shirt clad tits.Â
âItâs not very nice of him to look down your shirt while Iâm sitting right fucking there either, now is it?â
Your nipple pebbles in response to the stimulation and he chuckles to himself, kicking the blankets around his legs until heâs settled.
A night out that turns into a grudge isnât an entirely uncommon occurrence for him. Every time you come along he ends up frustrated that someone wants to grab your attention from him, asking you questions about your personal life and how youâre finding Tokyo now that autumn has slowly started to give way to winter. Does everyone have to be so friendly all the time?
Turning your head to face him for a moment, you raise a brow and smirk.Â
âAre you jealous?â
Sighing, he tips his head back against the pillow that has been designated as his since the first time he slept over and stares at the ceiling.
âNo, I just donât want him thinking he can look at what belongs to me.â
A puzzled giggle escapes you, Gen still kneading at the soft flesh of your breast.Â
âIs that not the textbook definition of jealousy?â Thereâs the faintest trace of a pout across his handsome features, dimly lit as they are in your dark bedroom. âBesides, itâs not like you publicly claim me. He has no way of knowing and I have a feeling that if anything, he was trying to distract me long enough for Shinonome to talk to you.â
The pout is gone, replaced with gritted teeth. A nerve has been struck, although you didnât quite intend it to end up that way. Itâs enough that he had to watch you be ogled by another man as you graciously leaned forward to fill his cup as he has done yours, now youâve brought up his subordinate he knows bothers you thanks to her open admiration that leans on more than just hero worship in your opinion.Â
Clearly he isnât the only one suffering from a little condition that starts with a J and has a tendency to turn someone green.Â
âThatâs your decision not mine,â he shoots back, shifting onto his side so he can curl his body around you. His grip on your flesh will leave behind marks if it goes on too long. With a hiss, you reach for his wrist but he untenses his fingers before you can. The touch returns to the same gentle massaging motion although his mouth remains open and sneering. Narumi sighs and his second hand joins the first in squeezing.Â
âEven if they found out, what would they do? Kick me out?â
You turn onto your side, facing him, fingers making their way around the back of his neck to gently scratch his neck and scalp the way you know he likes. It isnât hard to make him putty in your hands and although you try not to resort to extremes, you need every tool you can get when heâs this worked up.Â
His eyes flutter shut and the clench in his jaw slowly relaxes under your gentle touch, softer than maybe this level of petulance deserves but love makes us all soft in ways we donât always expect.Â
Itâs why the fear of being found out always tinges these intimate moments with a bit more gray than youâd prefer. You used to simply like Gen. Enjoying his company gradually turned into being unable to function without it which has now led to this, two bodies in one bed, both smelling a bit of sake even though you showered together before peeling the sheets back.Â
Somehow being here with him feels more fleeting than loving him from just over 5,000 miles away.Â
The fraternization policy at the JAKDF is loosely enforced for enlisted members. Unfortunately, you are not enlisted nor is your work that of killing kaiju which automatically makes you slightly more disposable than your partner.Â
âMaybe not you but theyâd definitely fire me. Then Iâd have to go home, weâd be long distance again, and youâd never get to sleep at night.â Shaking your head, you lean in to press your nose against his. âNot an ideal situation.â
He dips his head to press his nose right back against yours.Â
âI could just tell them youâre essential to keep me happy,â he offers and you giggle. âIâm not joking. Keeping me happy should be their first priority anyway.â
There is a bit more humor in what heâs saying than heâll let on, especially since you both know his subordinates are onto you to some extent.Â
Giggling, you rub your nose against his again. He takes it further, dipping his head so that your lips brush against his. Ever greedy, he kisses you so much it almost makes you forget what youâre about to say. You break away before any further distraction can appear, lips still touching even if they arenât locked.Â
âLetâs pretend that you gave them such an ultimatum. What would you even say?â
The once gentle scratching against his scalp has become light tugging at his dark strands of hair and his knee has shoved its way between your thighs, the room growing warmer with each touch. Any distance remaining between the two of you has now been diminished, skin touching skin while he gazes down at you with heavily lidded eyes.
âIâd remind them of how difficult I was before being able to cum in you all the time.â
Opening your mouth to dispute his claims, or to at least ask him to have some decorum, he takes the opportunity to kiss you again before you can. His tongue slides between your teeth to tangle with yours, hands sliding from your chest to your hips and ass that are now being squeezed and kneaded.
Pulling away to catch your breath, lips slicked with spit and pussy resting warmly against the taut muscle of his thigh while he grinds it against you, you giggle breathlessly.
âAnd who else can say that they do that? Certainly not Tachi ââ
Gen captures your lips once again, preventing another manâs name from spilling out of your sweet lips hurriedly. He can let bygones be bygones and if tonight keeps up how itâs going so far, he wonât make him run until his legs break in the morning for stealing a peek.
Maybe.

What Ghost Fuckers shows us about BlitzĂž, his face scar and eye trauma, and his deepest fears.
As we already know, BlitzĂž's scars come from the same accident that maimed Fizz, killed BlitzĂž's mom, and burned BlitzĂž's life as he knew it to ashes. We also know BlitzĂž blames himself for the accident, because he inadvertently caused it by pushing aside the imp carrying Fizz's cake.
In Oops, we also saw BlitzĂž's eye got badly hurt during the accident.
And, even though it seems to have fully recovered given his precision with a gun, it is still permanently and completely surrounded by scar tissue.
It's his most visible scarâthe only one he cannot cover up with his daily attire. It represents his vulnerability and broadcasts it to the world. So much so that, when he's feeling at his most helpless, he shields it from view as a means to protect himself.
Eyes are typically represented in fiction as windows to the soul, so one's eye being hurt or scarred can be a representation of how broken, hurt, or tainted they are/feel inside; an unclosable window that displays their deepest trauma for everyone to see.
We also know BlitzĂž privately crosses out his face in pictures with his loved ones, and we've seen across multiple episodes that the side of his face that is highlighted in each scene can relate to his emotional state. His scarred side is in full view in moments when he's losing control of his emotional state and unable to hide his vulnerability, whereas his unscarred side will be in view when he's trying to avoid/hide his insecurities and pretend everything is fine. On key moments when he's being honest with himself and others about his emotions, his front side will show, a representation of him acknowledging both sides and approaching a balance between them.
In Ghost Fuckers, eye trauma is also used to represent BlitzĂž's emotional turmoil, except the eye trauma is no longer his ownâit is very blatantly extended to others.
In his Millie hallucination, every single Millie except for the one with the broken arm has got something wrong with one or both of her eyes. Each of them is the realization of Millie being hurt because BlitzĂž put her in harm's way: the bottle shards from Murder Family, the fire in Loo Loo Land, the giant fish from Spring Broken, the angelic arrow in CHERUBS, and the final Millie, which seems to match the hotel bellboy, implying Rolando has hurt or affected her in some way.
(Notice how BlitzĂž's scarred side is showing again in this moment).
All these Millies have been ruined in the same way BlitzĂž is ruined, and they've been ruined because of BlitzĂž. Because he needed her. Because he put her in harm's way. Because he cared about her enough to selfishly keep her in his life.
All of these Millies have ended up "like him": permanently marked as broken.
This is what his love does, in his eyes (pun not intended). It damages people beyond repair. It is a contagious and unstoppable force that will inevitably destroy anything and anyone itâheâtouches.
Just like it did his mother.
She, too, loses an eye in his hallucination. An eye that falls right in his hand as she burns away, marking him as responsible for her corruption; an eye that looks at him even as she vanishes from his grasp. Almost as if she knows. Knows what he did, knows he's to blame for her death. Knows that if it weren't for him, and his feelings, and his love, she'd still be whole. She'd still be alive.
This masterful visual representation of BlitzĂž's guilt and fear is perfectly summarised in Millie's line, âwhen was the last time you loved someone without hurting them?â BlitzĂž truly believes anyone who stays close to him will end up just like him: damaged, and traumatised, and broken, or worseâdead.
And all because he was selfish enough to let himself be loved and cared for by them.

I didnât know I wanted you (Until I couldnât have you)
Part 3/5
For the next 3 weeks, it had become nearly impossible for Buck and Tommy to have much free time to see each other.
And see each other, in Buckâs mind, is having one on one time with Tommy, without Eddie. Sure âhanging out with the boysâ was fun and all, but there was a lighter element in the air when Buck was alone with Tommy. He couldnât quite describe it, but sometimes, he preferred it, craved it, even. He could be sitting right next to Tommy during a beer and movie night with Eddie and still feel so far away from him.
The most interesting surprise for Buck was Tommy texting him during one of their movie nights.
They shared a glance, smiling at one another.
Thatâs really weird. I canât say that!
Buck tucked his lips in, trying to contain himself. Tommy was sitting close by and he didnât want him to see a big, stupid smile on his face.
When he briefly glanced up at Tommy, he was already looking his way. Buck shot him a half-smirk and a nod, and Tommy nodded back.
His heart was racing again.
Tommyâs really cool.
The next day, Buck and Tommy met for dinner and beers. They joked, they laughed, they had a great time.
âHowâve you been doing? I know you told me plenty about how Gerrardâs been treating you. You okay?â
âAs okay as Iâll ever be. I miss Bobby. The energy of the 118 isâŠdifferent now. I just hate it. I love my job. But I-I hate this feeling.â
Tommy nodded in understanding. âSometimes change can be good, but sometimes change can ruin your day-to-day life. Especially when itâs a person single-handedly trying to make your life a living hell.â
âExactly. Thatâs all heâs been doing for weeks.â
Tommy looked at Buck with soft, sympathetic eyes. His gaze felt like a comforting hug, and Buck couldnât look away. He couldnât resist the urge to just fall in.
âEvanâŠI know itâs not easy.â Tommy smiled. âBut youâre doing great. Youâre one of the strongest people I know.â
Buck broke eye contact, sheepishly looking away. âI-I just feel a little defeated sometimes.â
âIâm sure Bobby will get his job back sooner or later. Itâs just the natural order of things. The 118 belongs together, right?â
Buck nodded in agreement. âRight!â
âReady to get outta here and head to the theater?â
âUhâyeah. Letâs go.â
After seeing a double feature of two amazing films Buck had never even heard of, Tommy rode with him in an Uber back to his place and Buck offered him a cup of coffee.
âHey, so, Wednesday, youâre coming with us for drinks, right?â
Tommy sadly sighed. âSorry, I canât. I have a date.â
âA-a date?â Buck forced a smile. Why did this bother him so much? âWhoâs the lucky person?â
âJustâŠsomeone I met during my run.â Tommy answered dismissively. âBut maybe we can do something next weekend?â
Buck nodded. âYâahâyeahâyeah. Next weekend sounds great.â
âGreat!â Tommy looked down at his phone. âMy Uber should be here in 5, Iâm gonna head down. Text you when I get home.â
âOkay uhâŠsee you later.â
Buck held his breath until the door shut behind Tommy and he let out an exasperated sigh, shoulders drooping with disappointment.
He wasnât sure what was bothering him, until he remembered what Tommy said at dinner.
Sometimes change can be good, but sometimes change can ruin your day-to-day life. Especially when itâs a person single-handedly trying to make your life a living hell.
Not that whoever Tommy was dating would intend to make his life hell in some way, but just the thought of spending less time with Tommy made him feel a loneliness he hadnât felt in a long time.
Buck felt strangely about the way their conversation ended. He only had himself to blame for being so dismissive. He couldnât fight the nagging thought that he had to fix it somehow.
Buck didnât want the conversation to end. It was late, and surely they were both exhausted, but every second that passed, he felt like Tommy was slowly slipping away from him.
He hated this stupid thought. Tommy didnât belong to him. Tommy was his friend. He was Eddieâs friend. He was everyone at the 118âs friend.
He couldnât shake the feeling that they shared a special friendship. One unlike the friendship he shared with everyone else. Buck was the only one Tommy wanted to take on weekly hiking trips. Buck was the one Tommy texted late at night to just talk and distract him from what stressed him out. In a way, Buck felt like Tommy was his.
And he was going to lose him.

summary ; daryl relives the tough choices that were made when he decided to leave the commonwealth.
notes ; established relationship, takes place both in france and at the commonwealth. just a whole lotta angst honestly. 4k words - this is the longest fic iâve written in literally forever so enjoy ᥣđ©
do not transfer, translate or share my work to any other sites.
"have you ever been in love?" sylvieâs question takes daryl by surprise, his attention momentarily pulled away from the road ahead of them as he turns to look at her in the passenger seat. her french accent is thick, though her words and facial expression are soft - like her.
thereâs a noticeable shift in his demeanour, his heart panging in his chest as his thoughts drift toward you back home, back at the commonwealth, where an ocean now stood between you and him. thereâs a sad look in his eyes, a mixture of pain and guilt and itâs clear that something deeply rooted within him had happened between the two of you.
âwhy do you look so sad?â sylvie observes him gently. she can sense the weight of his thoughts, the memories heâs carrying. she wants to press him on it, to further dissect the man that had fallen into their lives, but decides to wait for him to speak instead.
daryl doesnât answer immediately, his gaze fixated on the open stretch of road ahead as his hands tightly grip the wheel. sylvieâs question was simple, straightforward, but for him, it was anything but. the weight of his thoughts bear down on his chest, stirring up a whirlwind of emotions he had spent months trying to bury deep down.
âsâcomplicated.â his voice is low and gravelly when he does finally answer, though laced with hurt as he clenches his jaw tightly.
âcomplicated?â sylvie repeats, her voice gentle, yet betraying her curiosity. sheâs not pushing, she just wants to understand - understand why that was the word he had chosen to describe whatever it was that was clearly plaguing him.
âmhmâŠâ he grumbles, a slight nod of his head as he refocuses on the road once more.
sylvie senses the deep hurt and longing that lies beneath his stoic exterior, âbecause you⊠still love them?â
â... sometimes love ainât enough.â his voice is harsher than he intends, but he leaves it all the same. he could still hear whispers of your laughter ringing in his ears, and how sweet you sounded when saying his name. if he could turn back time and stop himself from ever leaving the commonwealth - from ever leaving you - he would.
his mind flashes back to the last night he had spent with you, the feeling of you in his arms, soft and close. how you looked at him with those warm eyes full of adoration, full of care, the way no one else had ever looked at him before and he wished he could have held onto that moment a little bit longer, a little bit tighter.
youâre sitting on the floor of your room, laughing, your legs stretched out alongside darylâs as you both lean against your bed. the night had settled over the commonwealth and though exhaustion tugged at both of your minds, you didnât want to retire for the night just yet, not when you knew it was your last night together.
âiâm still pissed at you,â you say, though thereâs no real anger in your tone, just lighthearted playfulness as your eyes gleam in the soft light of the room. you had a habit of looking at him as if he were the only person in the world - which to you, he was.
he nods, huffing out a quiet laugh, âi know. i know ya are.â
his eyes fall to your body, admiring softly, the way your shirt hangs a little off your left shoulder, showing a hint of your collarbone, and his fingers slowly reach to trail down the exposed skin. you notice the way his eyes roam your body, and for a moment, the mood of playful banter shifts into something warmer, something heavier. the air feels a little more charged between you both, the feeling of wanting, not knowing when youâll get the chance to hold and touch one another like this again.
daryl tries to ignore the way his stomach twists at the memory, the way his mind drifts back to the last time he had touched you. he knows he shouldnât but the memories are too vivid, he can practically hear your soft gasps in his ear, hear the way you say his name, all breathy and full of love. he canât help but let himself get carried away in the distant memories of you and the love you shared together.
you bite your lower lip a little, drawing his eyes towards your mouth, and he feels a pang in his chest at the action. you see the way his jaw tenses, how he looks at you with his steely blue eyes, and know heâs fighting against his thoughts, trying to suppress the desire that was clearly building inside of him.
you feel that familiar twist of desire in your own stomach, that familiar need for him building with every passing second. you shift towards him slightly, your leg brushing against his, â...what am i going to do without you?â
heâs struggling, holding back, but he canât resist the way you move towards him, the way your thigh brushes against his. he brings a calloused hand up to cup your face, thumb tracing over the skin of your cheek. his eyes flicker to your lips again, his heart beating faster, the pull towards you becoming stronger. the desire to hold you, to keep you close, to never let you go, is overwhelming.
he swallows thickly, âyer gonna be fine. always are.â
thereâs a pause as you shake your head, taking in a deep breath as tears dare to prick at your eyes, ânot this time.â
the feeling of helplessness washes over him as he sees the emotions play across your face. his hand moved to your jaw, cupping it gently before tipping it slightly so youâre looking directly at him. your eyes are watery, pained, and it kills him to see it, to know heâs the cause of it. his thumb brushed over your cheek, wiping away a lone tear that had slipped down it.
âdonât cry,â he tries to reassure you, voice gruff and low, but somewhat softer for him.
âhow can i not when youâre leaving meâŠâ you exhale, eyes almost fully glazed over as your mind spirals with the dread of what comes in the morning.
he doesnât know how to make you feel better, how to soothe away that fear thatâs plaguing you. daryl has always had a tendency for keeping people at arms-length, to not let them get too close in case they leave, in case they get hurt. but with you itâs always been different. youâre different. youâve seen deeper into him than anyone else ever has and despite that, you stayed.
you chose him.
your eyes flitter across his features, as though to be committing every small detail to memory. every crease, every freckle or mole, even the grey hairs that were poking through the scruff on his chin, you wanted to remember it all as though it was the last time youâd ever see him.
he can tell youâre scared, unsure, trying to memorise him, like you believe that this might be the last time you see him. he can feel the shakiness of your body, the warm tears that fall from your eyes, your soft forehead pressed against his. there was nothing more that he wanted than to be able to tell you where he was going and how long he was going to be gone, but most importantly that he would be back.
you move your hands up to rest around his neck, pulling him as close as humanly possible, your lips only grazing his before you eventually close the space between you. itâs soft and gentle, the way your lips move together, your tongues lightly dancing, but the need for one another quickly takes over. transpiring into a longing of want and need to be even closer. his hands grip your hips, holding onto you tightly like heâd never let you go.
âi love you,â you breathe the words as you try to regain your breath but all daryl can see is the mixture of love and sadness in your eyes.
it wasnât the first time you had said it to him, or the second or third, you made sure to say it to him as much as he would allow you to, but no matter what, it always felt like the first time. he buried his head in the crook of your neck, lips grazing over the sensitive skin there as he breathes you in. he can feel the way your body trembles, the way you cling to him, afraid to let him go.
âi love you too,â he mumbles against your skin, the words barely audible, like a secret you both already knew but didnât want to admit aloud.
âwho was it not enough for â you or them?â sylvieâs question rips him from his thoughts, hitting him deep in the chest once again.
daryl exhales heavily, his fingers tensing around the steering wheel once more. âi donât⊠me,â he answers honestly, his voice almost a whisper. the words hang in the air, heavy and loaded with the weight of his decision.
sylvie sees the turmoil and decides to change the topic slightly, deciding to approach the matter from a different angle, âwill you tell me about them?â her voice is low and soothing, drawing him slowly out of his dark thoughts.
he wants to scream ânoâ, to shut it down immediately, knowing that the act of talking about you, even though it would be painful, felt like the only way to keep you close. he wasnât one for sharing, for letting others inside his mind, but the idea of telling someone about you, not knowing if heâd get another opportunity to do so⊠it hurt more than the idea of reliving the memories he had shared with you and the impact you had made in his life.
heâs quiet for a moment, swallowing the growing lump in his throat before he opens his mouth, âshe was⊠she was beautiful. caring. strong. stubborn, real stubborn.â
he lets out a soft chuckle at the thought of the numerous times youâd made his life a living hell over the years, yet heâd secretly loved the way youâd never take his bullshit and would always put him in his place. sylvie canât help but admire the way he lights up as he speaks about you, the tension in his shoulders and jaw easing at her gentle prodding.
âshe had this⊠way about her, ya know?â his voice is still gruff as he speaks, yet thereâs a softness to his tone now, an undeniable fondness. âshe could hit a target in the bullseye without battinâ an eye but then trip up on her own feet a few seconds later.â he continues, a hint of awe in his voice now as he describes you, like heâs talking about some mythical being. he finds himself once again getting lost in his thought of you, the corner of his mouth lifting in a sad smile.
âshe knew how to make me feelâŠsafe. usually it was my job to make others feel that way, to be the protector, but not her, she always wanted to take care of me. like sheâs got this hold on me that i canât shake, and i donât⊠i donât know if i ever willâŠâ
âyou still love her⊠thatâs why.â sylvie points out after seeing the way he had spoken about you. it was the first time he had indulged anyone in a conversation about himself, about his life before france, about you. you were clearly important to him, otherwise he wouldnât have let himself get so caught away in talking about you, and he canât help but feel surprised at himself for doing so.
âainât that simple,â he responds, the sharpness returning to his voice as his walls go up once more because he knows that he canât deny the truth. he did still love you, of course he did, that was never in question. but he also canât ignore the complex factors that had torn the two of you apart, or that it was entirely his fault.
sylvie pauses for a moment, before saying, âperhaps, but perhaps it also shouldnât have to be so hard.â
daryl lets out a bitter scoff, his jaw clenching tighter and he turns his attention back to the road ahead. he doesnât respond to her this time, his mind preoccupied with the tangled mess of his emotions. he knows that things should be simple. hell, they had been simple at one point. but life wasnât a fairytale, especially in the world you now lived in and it was his job to keep you safe, whether you liked it or not.
you watch as daryl pulls his backpack tighter around his shoulders and continues walking as if you hadnât said a word, as if you hadnât just told him you wanted to go with him, wherever it was that he may end up. âi said i want to come with you,â you repeat louder now, your words echoing back to you as your heart thrums so loudly in your chest that you were sure it was going to explode.
daryl stills at your voice now, his shoulders tensing at your words. he had heard you the first time but hoped that you would drop it after seeing him continue on his way, but, of course, things could never be that simple. he can practically feel the desperation in your voice, the pleading tone making his heart ache, but he stubbornly resists the urge to turn around and look at you.
â...no.â he responds without any hesitation, any trepidation, his voice firm as he allows no room for you to argue.
âno?â your voice is a soft murmur as you move to stand in front of him. your gaze full of confusion and hurt, your heart still racing in your chest. âwhat do you mean ânoâ?â
his blue eyes finally meet yours, the usual warm depth within them now cold and guarded. he stands there, jaw clenched, looking down at you with a mixture of stoicism and stubbornness as he fights off the urge to reach out and smooth away the hurt he sees in your eyes.
âi mean ânoâ,â he repeats, his mind set. âya ainât cominâ with me.â
your heart sinks for the second time, the pain and confusion swirling inside you like a storm. you swallow hard, your eyes stinging with the onset of tears once more. âthatâs it? just ânoâ? youâre not even going to consider it?â
âthere ainât nothinâ to consider,â his jaw clenched once more and he sighs heavily, as if the question pained him just as much as it did you. he brushes a hand through his hair, tucking it behind his ear as he bites down on his lower lip. âi canât have ya gettinâ hurt.â his voice is quieter this time.
you stand there frozen as you watch daryl continue on to where his motorcycle was parked by the front gates, unable to comprehend the way in which he was acting. as if you hadnât just spent the entire night making yourself sick over whether or not you wanted to go with him or stay behind at the commonwealth, all while he was sound asleep beside you.
darylâs heart is heavy as he walks away from you, every step feeling like he was dragging anvils behind him, but he forces himself to remain stern, to stay strong in his decision. he was doing this for you. he had to.
you follow behind him, watching as he swings himself onto the bike and settles into the leather seat, âi know how to handle myself, daryl â you of all people know that.â
âthat ainât the point,â he snaps back.
âthen what is the point?â you throw your arms up and let them fall back to your sides, your emotions beginning to get the better of you once again, but daryl wasnât having any of it. âdaryl, please⊠i want to come with you,â your voice cracks and you take a deep breath in trying to keep yourself in check but only failing.
the sound of your voice cracking breaks him, the pain in your words physically stabbing at his heart. but he couldnât back down now, not after already making up his mind. heâd never be able to live with himself if something were to happen to you and all because he agreed to let you go with him. he had already almost lost you a handful of times, he didnât know how much luck he had left and he sure as hell wasnât ready to find out.
he looks away from you, avoiding your eyes and shakes his head, âno.â
you reach forward to place your hands on top of his as they lay on the handlebars of the motorcycle, âi canât⊠i canât be away from you. not again. not even if that means giving up our home and everything else we were building here. i want to be with you⊠please.â you take in a shaky breath as silent tears begin to roll down your cheeks.
darylâs hands clench beneath yours, the gesture betraying his internal struggle. he can feel the weight of your words, the weight of your pain and your love for him. his heart aches, conflicting with the resolute part of him that was telling him to just start the motorcycle and ride off before he eventually gave in.
he lets out a heavy sigh, his expression conflicted and pained as he finally turns to look back up at you. seeing the tears streaming down your face breaks something in him.
âiâm⊠iâm doinâ this for your own good,â he says, the words sounding hollow even to his ears.
you shake your head, clamping your teeth down on your bottom lip in an attempt to stop the sobs that were clawing their way up your throat, but thereâs no use, âthatâs bullshit.â
he flinches at your words, his defences crumbling under the weight of your accusation. he knows you know him too well, that you can see through his excuses and facades. he takes in your tear-stricken face, the sight like a dagger to his heart. he can see the desperation in your eyes, and itâs tearing him apart.
his own eyes start to sting, his nose burning with the beginnings of tears. he opens his mouth to speak, but no words come out. no words could explain how he was feeling in that moment, the conflicting thoughts and emotions raging within his mind and his heart.
he canât take it anymore, the sight of you crying, the weight of his own guilt, the pain of his decision. he lets go of the handlebars, his hands coming up to cup your face, his fingers wiping away the tears rolling down your cheeks. he looks deep into your eyes, torn between loving you and trying to protect you.
he presses a kiss to your forehead. itâs soft and gentle, full of worry, but painful. he just wanted to do the right thing by you. he didnât want you out there with him, he needed you here. he needed you safe. you would be safe with the others, and he knew carol would look after you.
he holds the kiss against your forehead a moment longer, his eyes squeezed shut as he tries to memorise the feel of your skin against his lips. when he pulls away, his eyes slowly open, looking at you with a thousand words left unsaid. he wants so desperately to just hold you, to keep you safe in his arms forever. but he canât.
âso thatâs it then?â you ask, your voice so small through your tears.
âmâsorryâŠâ is all he manages, the words tasting like poison, but his mind and heart refuse to budge. âi just⊠i have to do this alone.â
âyou really expect me to just go about my days knowing that youâre out there all alone? constantly worrying if youâre okay, or if youâre even alive?â your throat was burning with emotion, your eyes stinging as you try to maintain it. the thought alone of something happening to daryl was making you feel sick.
each of your words feels like a knife to his heart and he feels like a fool for being the one to cause you this much pain. he wants to tell you that heâll be fine, that heâs strong and can keep himself safe⊠but the truth of the matter was, he had no idea what was going to happen the second he stepped outside the gates of the commonwealth, or if he would be okay. he was all too well aware of the fact that the thought of leaving you behind was as terrifying to him as it was to you.
âiâll be fine,â he says anyway, his thumb rubbing soothing circles on your cheeks. he wanted to give you some sort of reassurance, no matter how small or how little he actually believed it. he just needed you to understand that this was something he needed to do and that he knew how to look after himself well enough, but you see right through him.
âwe both know you canât promise that,â you whisper as you pull out of his touch. ânot really.â
daryl can feel the distance between the two of you growing already with each second that passes, his heart aching and his head pounding all at once. your words only add to the guilt and the pain that heâs already feeling, knowing that he canât give you the real reassurance you need. he swallows hard, trying to keep his own emotions in check.
deep down he knows he canât promise something, that at that moment, he wasnât even sure of himself. he could see the questions, the realisation, the hurt swirling in your eyes as you stared up at him, silently pleading for him to contradict you, to tell you that it wasnât true.
âi can try,â is all he can muster and your heart feels like itâs going to collapse in on itself. you knew daryl better than anyone, better than he knew himself, and you knew he was being sincere, but that didnât stop the doubts and insecurities you had about him leaving. nothing would ever make you feel better about it.
âpleaseâŠâ he suddenly grabs your hands again, holding them tight in his own, not wanting to lose the feeling of your touch, of your skin against his. he could already feel it slipping away â feel you slipping away â and the distance growing further between the two of you. âplease⊠just⊠trust me,â he practically pleads, his voice soft and his gaze filled with helplessness.
you look down at your hands wrapped in darylâs, the touch feeling so familiar yet so foreign at the same time. it just serves as a painful reminder that he really was leaving. your own features are shaky as all you can do is accept his words with a nod, another tear rolling down your cheek as you press your forehead to his.
his eyes flutter shut as you rest your head against his, each tear that you shed causing the ache in his chest to grow even more. he can feel the resignation in your gestures, the way you submit to his decision, even if deep down you didnât agree with it.
he savoured the feelings of you against him, eyes closed, his hands holding onto yours as if he were clutching on to the last shred of you that he had. he wanted to keep you here, in this bubble, forever if he could. and in that moment, he swears to himself that no matter how long heâs gone for, or how far away he ends up, he was going to come back for you, no matter how hard or how much time it took.
and he was going to keep that promise.

ćœĄ STRESS RELIEVER. ⧠MIGUEL O'HARA
oneshot â„ you're struggling to keep your focus with the stress and miguel offers to ease that worry off you.
â„ tropes: modern + college au. afab reader + playboy miguel. â„ content warning: explicit content (18+), finger f*cking, dirty talk. minors do not interact. â„ extras: divider creds: cafekitsune. â„ wc:Â 3,573
a/n. this is long overdue for someone who requested miguel to finger fuck reader as a stress relief. i aged reader and miguel to between 22-23 in this oneshot since they're college students. this fic is longer than intended but hey, we like to take it slow burn here.
Sometimes you contemplate why you put yourself in this kind of situation.Â
You were aware that you have exams coming up in the next few weeks. But you were focused on making sure that you got your assignments done before the deadline. So it was natural for you to prioritise those. You wish you had paid more attention to the dates because just when you thought that you would have more time to revise, you didnât. Leaving you with only three weeks until your exam. And now youâre struggling to get information into your head.Â
âFuck,â you mumble. The machine makes a soft drilling noise as it pours coffee into your mug. You rub your forehead with your hand as you wait for your drink to finish. Thinking about what topics you need to revise for the exam. Mentally planning how you would organise and plan yourself for another long session of studying. Itâs going to be another long night.
When your drink is ready, you stride your way to the dining table where all your notes and books are set. With not enough desk space you have in your room, the dining table has turned into your second desk to accommodate all the reading materials and your laptop to work on. You strap yourself in your seat, ready for another torturous session of studying for the finals.Â
All the caffeine from the coffee, tea and sugary energy drinks didnât last long in your system. At first, you feel the buzz of the caffeine that helps you go through two hours of reading and answering mock questions without a proper break. You feel yourself pushing through, feeling motivated that you can do this. But then, the effects wear off, and now youâre struggling through short video clips on your laptop after two hours into your study session.Â
Your mind battles. Reminding you about the consequences of you losing more time. But you canât be bothered at the moment. You are convincing yourself that you deserve a break from studying for fifteen minutes which turned into a two-hour rest and procrastination.Â
At this rate, you know that you won't get any studying done. Youâre going to have to face the consequences of that but you canât be bothered about it for now. Staring mindlessly at your laptop with headphones on as you watch a reality television adaption to pass the time.Â
âDios, youâre still here this late?âÂ
Your eyes look up from your laptop to find your roommate in the dining area. Miguel stands at the entrance in his black leather jacket, red shirt underneath and dark-coloured jeans. His black helmet rests on his left lip and it looks like heâs returned from wherever he went or did. You didnât realise that he wasnât in the house you both shared all this time. âWhen was the last time you looked at yourself in the mirror? You look shit.âÂ
âThanks, Captain Obvious.â You say. Your relationship with Miguel OâHara is rather tricky, to say the least. Sometimes, the two of you get along and have a decent conversation with each other about careers, and personal experiences and share similar interests. Though other times, itâs not necessary. Itâs mostly when he would bring people over to the house and then take one girl up to his room. Having to hear moans from the girls he fucked and Miguelâs growls and dirty talks.Â
It annoys you to no end, especially the one incident when you walked into the bathroom with him getting a blow job in the shower. Itâs still his fault for not locking the bathroom or even putting a sign on the door to say that heâs busy getting pleased. Â
Even after that, your subtle attraction for Miguel still resonates with you.Â
You realise your mug is empty, another drink that is supposed to keep you going has gone to waste in your system. You canât be bothered but you know that youâve wasted time not studying when youâre supposed to. So, you get up from your seat, walk into the kitchen and do the same routine that youâve done the past few weeks when youâre cramming for finals. Either make your coffee, or tea or grab an energy drink. The caffeine from the coffee is too much for you to handle at the moment and tea isnât strong enough for you. So you settle for an energy drink where itâs in between enough caffeine to maybe help you go through for another three hours for now.Â
âAre you thinking of studying again?â Miguel sounds a bit disbelieving, but not surprised. Heâs now in the kitchen with you as you take your energy drink of choice for the nightâor early morning. You donât want to look at the time âThereâs no point. Youâre not going to remember anything at this rate.â
âCan we just⊠not do this?â You warn, holding your hand up as a sign for him to stop talking. Stop creating conversations that would lead to an argument because you know it would happen. Especially with your emotions all over the place. Â
Miguel stares at you, his eyes roaming up and down. Not long after, his lips curl into a smirk. Leaning his side against the frame of the long, rectangular entrance arch. âYouâre stressed out. Miss Perfect finally breaks down for finals.â Â
A tired sigh escapes out of your mouth. You focus to proceed on opening up the can, hearing its fizziness before pouring it into your mug. âYou could say that.âÂ
The kitchen falls into silence. What he says is certainly true and you feel that you brought this on yourself. You were off-tracked with your assignments and didnât check the right exam dates. Itâs an error on your part but you are trying to do your best to make it through another year of college without failing. At this point, youâre willing to accept a passing grade just to make it to another year. Â
âIâll study and keep you company,â Miguel declares. âOnly to make sure you stay focused and get on track. No more messing around. Got that?âÂ
You blink, unprepared for his words. Youâre not sure why heâs doing this to you but what he said made a rush of warmth fill your chest. Despite his words, you guess that he thinks itâs better to have someone to study with rather than doing it alone. But you donât ask Miguel if thatâs his intention, in case he decides to rethink his offer.
âThank you.âÂ
Miguel unfolds his arms and lets it drop to his sides. His hands are in his pockets as heâs about to leave, but then he looks over his shoulder to you. âAnd also; nadie bebe su bebida energĂ©tica de una taza.â He says before disappearing elsewhere.Â
You blink and look down at the mug in your hand, guessing that Miguel is talking about how energy drinks are meant to drink from their can, and not from a mug.Â
* * * * *Â
You did manage to push yourself for another two hours before you came crashing again.Â
âI canât focus on anything else right now. My mind has gone blank.â You sigh, slumping on your seat. Thatâs another study session that failed.
âHm,â Miguel responds. Focusing on his study materials. âI think youâve studied too much. Thatâs why youâre burned out.âÂ
There is some truth to his words. You have been pushing yourself to the bone for this exam and now your mind is haywired. Everything feels numbing in your head. The feelings of exhaustion, guilt and unbotheredness are jumbled in you.Â
âIâm just really stressed out. I want to do well on this exam but my brain just⊠canât grasp anything that Iâve studied.â You say, sounding a little disheartened. âI canât focus, I canât concentrate.âÂ
Miguel couldnât help but glance at you. Taking in the way youâre slumped in your seat and how hollow your eyes are, filled with fatigue and emptiness. You look stressed out. He wonders when was the last time you had rest â a proper break. Not the stupid Pomodoro breaks where you take five to ten minutes of break time before getting back to studying.Â
He wonders when was the last time you had taken care of yourself?Â
Miguel turns his attention to you when he hears you close one of your heavy books. You let out a sigh, âI canât even relax without being so much on edge. Fuck.âÂ
He thinks youâre right as he sees the way your body tenses in stress and anxiety. Miguelâs expression stays unfazed though he does feel sympathy seeing you in such a state. âHey, you should get some rest. Go to bed early or something.âÂ
âI will after I attempt to get this lesson done. Then, Iâll go to bed.âÂ
Miguel gives you a solemn look. Your determination is one of the things he admires about you. Your willingness to do whatever it takes to get your points across. It made you endearing in his eyes. But at the moment, itâs making you look stubborn and somewhat prideful. The last thing you need is a bad experience of burnout before your exam, and he knows that you know this as well deep down.
âLet me help you to relax,âÂ
âHuh?â You shoot him a confused look. As if heâs said something unusual to you. âHelp me⊠relax? How do you plan on doing that?âÂ
Miguel nods, âYou are tensed up and youâre not getting anything remembered in your head. Your mind canât focus.â Â
You raise a brow at him, unsure where your roommate is coming from. Miguel is right, you do need to take a proper break since your productivity is rather counterproductive. But his words still puzzle you about how he can help you relax. âAnd how do you plan on doing that, exactly?â You ask curiously. âWhat do you do to relax when youâre stressed out?âÂ
âYou know, go to the gym. Take a walk, drive around.â Miguel says it casually. âSometimes masturbating helps to wire your brain to relax.â
You stare at your roommate before burying your face in your hands with a groan. Not only is the suggestion embarrassing but you have to imagine Miguel playing with himself. How his hands would stroke his cock, hot and pulsing in the palm of his hands. Envisioning the grunted breaths and deep groans he makes. It isnât as if you havenât done that to yourself either, pleasuring yourself. Youâve done that on the nights where you could hear the headboard of his bed from his room moving as the girl Miguel brought for the night kept moaning.Â
You shake your head, dismissing the thoughts immediately. Or try to. âIâm not in the right mindset to do that.âÂ
Miguel raises an eyebrow. âIâm not saying you should do it. Iâm offering to do it. Itâs on the table for you.âÂ
âWhat?â You stare at him in shock and confusion. You think you heard him wrong but from the unfazed look on his face, you know that he is serious about this. Serious about giving you an orgasm, or maybe multiple orgasms. Because you know from the women and girls he brings over to fuck, Miguel has them moaning more than three times.Â
When you open up your mouth, you can hear yourself stammering your words. The thought of it is disgusting but at the same time, arouses you. âMiguel, IââÂ
âDo you trust me?â He asks, his red eyes piercing into yours. Captivating you to stop talking. To stop denying the offer of pleasure. You give Miguel a look of uncertainty, unsure how to respond to his offer.
âWhatâs it gonna be?â Miguel asks. The corner of his mouth curves up to a tiny smirk. âNo pressure, chica. I want you to think about it and let me know if youâre up for it or not.âÂ
Miguel goes back to reading his study notes with a neutral expression as if the conversation didnât happen. He doesnât look at you and the silence in the room speaks volumes. Leaving you to think about the offer. Youâre not sure why he is even offering himself to give you pleasure. Miguel is your friend, for goodness sake. The guy is out of your league and he has been with other people, you know this. Is he doing this out of pity or could there be more to it?Â
The two of you have lived together for three years of schooling, and have known each other for that long. He doesnât give you attention in a lustful way or lustful like he does with other girls; the kind of interest in starting a sexual relationship with you. Itâs a blessing in disguise yet at the same time, you want a connection more than just being his friend.Â
You have a crush on Miguel but he doesnât seem the type of guy who isnât ready to commit to one person just yet. Especially when youâre both still young and exploring life ahead. Â
âOkay,â you closed your book with a thud. You catch his eyes when you fully turn to talk to him. This idea is already as insane as it is, but youâre desperate to stop feeling like a lost cause about your exam. You just want to forget about your test for a few minutes. Maybe a couple of hours at most. âIâll take up on your offer. What Iâve been doing is not working, and I need some sort of break before I go insane.âÂ
Miguel grins and then puts his reading materials away. You always think that he looks so handsome when he smiles. âWell then. Move your books and laptop aside and sit on the table for me.â Miguel looks at you when you stare at him. âIt will be a lot nicer like that, trust me.â He adds.Â
âOkay, Iâll get my stuff out of the way.â You say and begin picking up your books and laptop. Miguel does the same, putting his things away, then turns his attention to look at you.Â
Youâre sitting on the edge of the table, waiting for his next words. The beating of your heart thumping is the only thing you can hear as you watch Miguel. He stands in front of you in between your thighs. Tall, built and handsome. His red eyes look down on you as they shine under the lights in the dining area.Â
You feel his hands on the sides of your waistband shorts, his fingers brushing against your clothed skin and hips. âMay I?â Miguel asks as he looks at you.Â
âSure,â you say. Youâre not one to be nervous around easily but your roommate seems to have that effect on you. When you lift your hips slightly, Miguel curls his fingers on the waistband and pulls down your shorts. Discarding your clothed item you notice that heâs taken off your panties too. âMiguelââÂ
His stare made you pause, his red piercing eyes keep you quiet. Youâve always known what Miguelâs eyes are like but in this moment of what youâre letting him do to you, it stirs feelings in you. The gaze in his eyes is fiery in desire; so focused and enraptured. He looks at you in silence â keeping his eyes on you â as he slowly pulls down everything and discards it somewhere in the room.Â
âOpen your legs a little for me, pretty,â Miguel tells you. âYes, thatâs it.âÂ
The heat on your cheeks burns you as your heart thumps in your chest at how intimate and vulnerable the situation looks. Never in your dreams you would be in this situation, much less doing it with Miguel OâHara.
 âItâs not too late to change your mind and tell me no.â He says. Standing between your legs, his calloused fingers on your inner right thigh. âI wonât hate you for it.âÂ
Your breathing is soft and steady. âShouldnât you have asked me that before you took my panties off?â You chuckled with a small smile. You feel a little more relaxed about what you and he are starting.Â
Miguel grins, âI probably should have.â His expression becomes serious. âIâll start slow.âÂ
You watch as he puts two fingers in his mouth with a gentle suck. When he pulls them out, his digits are glistened wet under the lights. Lubricated and wet against his tan skin. Miguel catches you dazing at him, his intense expression stays on you, as he brings his fingers between your thighs. They find themselves between your flaps, tracing your inner folds with his fingertips.Â
âYouâre already wet before I touch you.â Miguel hums in approval. âThatâs good.âÂ
His fingers move slowly like he promised. You feel him gather your sleek arousal with a gentle swipe of his thumb and move up to the hood of your cunt. You moan softly when you feel Miguel play with your clit, circling and putting just the right pressure that has you tingling in sensation. Your hands grip on the edge of the table as you brace yourself.Â
âGosh, that feels nice.â You sigh. Your eyes are closed, indulging in the pleasure, finding your body relaxed and mind in tranquillity. Focusing on feeling his fingers touch and tease your folds and clit. Maybe this is what you truly need for a break from intense studying.Â
âI like the look on your face,â Miguel tells you. You can picture the smirk from the tone of his voice. âThis is just the beginning of your stress relief.âÂ
You didnât get to open your eyes and ask him what he meant when you felt something push inside your cunt. Your walls are wet and warm, feeling one of Miguelâs digits sliding into your pussy with ease. It has you gasping and moaning softly, your back arches and hands gripping tightly onto the table edge. Miguel has his index finger in you and he slips in his middle finger, stretching your pussy open. His thumb is still circling your clit as his fingers thrust in and out of you.Â
âStay still, bonita.â His voice deeps, almost growling. âAnd donât think. Just focus on the feeling of my fingers. Relax for me.âÂ
You canât help but tighten around his fingers from the command. Hoping that he didnât feel the way your clit throbs from his command. You never heard him speak like that before â maybe not to you â but it sounds hot. All you could focus on is the way his fingers rub and massage your pussy.Â
You can tell that Miguel is certainly experienced with the way he can tease your vulva and play with your clit, letting your breathless sighs and moans guide him. Itâs completely easy to forget about anything else but being finger fuck by the guy you liked.Â
âOh, oh.â You softly moan, putting the heels of your feet on the edge of the table. Your hands clutch onto his forearms as Miguel fingers you. It has your head spinning with the way he alternates between fingering and rubbing your slick folds. The pace is not fast or slow-- just perfect, as it eases you off and you forget about what you're stressed about in the first place.Â
And when he pushes his fingers into your pussy, it has you tilting your head back in ecstasy, moaning his name, as you feel him going deeper.
"So tight around my fingers. You definitely need this." Miguel smirks, his breath warms your neck. âNeed a good stretch, donât you, bonita?âÂ
You groan as you feel him continuously plunge his digits in and out of you. Miguel doesnât stick to one way to pleasure you; he would rub your wet folds, flicker your clit up and down and sideways with his thumb, and circle your little pearl. At the corner of your eye, you see the corner of his mouth curve up in a smirk when clutching onto his forearms for dear life.Â
âMiguel,â you mewl. The knot in your lower belly tightens when he plunges his whole fingers into your slick pussy, thrusting them in and out. Your body moves in a sudden, forward thrust when Miguel continues to come hither inside your pussy, having his fingers rubbing your G-spot. He doesnât stop to flicker and circle your throbbing clit and a sultry gasp catches in your throat as your thighs begin to quiver. âOh, fuck!âÂ
âThatâs it, beautiful. Oh, you really do need this, donât you?â Miguel asks almost mockingly. You arch your back in his embrace and let out another moan, feeling his two fingers flicking inside your pussy walls. He knows exactly what heâs doing, drawing out more noises from you as your lower body still trembles, and your cum spilling out of your folds and onto his fingers.Â
It feels as if Miguel is toying with you and pussy for a long time, even after being overstimulated and sensitive. He slows down his ministrant but still has his fingers gently rubbing circles on your clit and wet folds. You relax in his arm, head on his shoulder as you regain your senses from orgasm. All thoughts cleared up in your head and you couldnât even remember what you were thinking or doing earlier before being finger-fucked.Â
Miguelâs voice sounds a little raspy and distinct, still toying with your cunt, as he whispers: âWanna continue this elsewhere?âÂ

CWs: captivity Whump, failed escape Whump.
âI know you have it.â
Whumper outstretched his palm. âHand it over.â
Whumpee hesitated for a fraction of a second, eyes flickering with defiance and defeat.
As soon as Whumpee dropped the box cutter into his hand, Whumperâs fingers snapped closed around it. His cold gaze fell over the flimsy weapon with a smirk playing at the corners of his lips, just before tucking the cheap plastic knife into his back pocket.Â
He shook his head in quiet disbelief.
âOh, WhumpeeâŠâ he sighed.
Whumpeeâs cheeks burned with shame. He never intended to use the box cutter maliciously. Or, at least, he knew he would never be capable of killing Whumper. He didnât have a plan, he never did, he just needed to feel secure before he trying to find a way out of this fucking place.
After all, he was scheduled to die tomorrow. Surely Whumper didnât expect him to accept his fate willingly. He had to fight back in order to stay alive.
âSorry.â Whumpee whispered.Â
He had so much to say, yet that was all that came out.
âYeah.â Whumper murmured, âMe too.â
âIâm sorryâŠâ Whumpeeâs voice cracked. âReally, I wasnât gonna hurt you, I, I donât even think I couldâŠâ
âSure, Whumps. I get it.â Whumper said in a soft, reassuring voice. He shifted awkwardly on his feet, exhaling. âYouâve been through a lot, I know.â
Whumpeeâs shoulders sagged and he looked up at Whumper, searching his eyes for an ounce of compassion.
âBut you fucked up big time.â
Whumpeeâs breath hitched as he heard Whumperâs tone harden, the last trace of sympathy evaporating.
âGet up, Whumpee. I need you to turn around for me.â
His tone made it clear that any illusion of mercy was gone.
âPlease. Iâm sorry.â Whumpeeâs heartbeat thundered in his ears, panic bubbling in his chest. âIâll do anything you want from here out, Iâll be good, Iâll listen--âÂ
Whumper laughed, a low, bitter sound. âDoesnât make much of a difference now.â
âTurn around.â
âPlease, just, give me a break. Just tonight. Itâs my last night, I, I wonât try anything, please I swear to you!â Whumpeeâs composure shattered as he choked out the words. âJ-just, please, let me have tonight...â
âNo.â
His gaze settled on Whumpeeâs tear-streaked face.
âSorry, Whumpee. You fucked up."
Whumper locked a pair of zip ties together behind Whumpeeâs back. He instructed Whumpee to climb onto his cot, and made quick work of locking his ankles together too.
Tears gushed down Whumpeeâs cheeks as the plastic ties snapped snugly into place.
âA box cutter. Really Whumpee?â Whumperâs grin grew, savoring the irony. âYou risked it all, and that was your weapon of choice?â
Whumpeeâs throat tightened, dread coiling in his stomach. His shoulders ached from the forced position, but he barely noticed, his mind was consumed with absolute terror. He could barely bring himself to look up as Whumper loomed over him.
âIâd laugh if it wasnât so goddamn pitiful.â The tall manâs voice dripped with contempt. âThe worst part is, well, I was gonna go easy on ya tomorrow. I picked up some good painkillers and booze to make it more comfortable for you.â
"You did?" Whumpeeâs voice quivered, the hope fading from his eyes. â...really?â
âHeh, yeah. I wasnât even going to tie you up.âÂ
Whumper leaned in, his tone dropping to a menacing whisper. âBut now, comfort is off the table.â
Tears streamed down Whumpeeâs cheeks. âI didnât mean t--â
âBut you did,â Whumper cut him off. âYou did, and you went and fucked it all up didnât ya?â
âI thought you liked me...â Whumpee mumbled, his words nearly swallowed by his own shame. â...donât do this.â
Whumper shook his head as he rose to his feet. âItâs okay. You can still sleep on your side.â
âWhumper! PLEASE!â
âI canât help you.âÂ
Whumperâs figure cast a long dark shadow across the wall next to the cot.Â
Whumpee watched as the tall silhouette crossed into the light, swinging the heavy door closed with a thud, submerging Whumpee in total blackness.
