How your admirers view you
This is a general reading meant for multiple people. Take only what resonates and leave out the rest.
Your feedback is much appreciated. If you find the reading resonated with you, leave a comment, Iâd love to know đ
About me | Masterpost Book a reading with me - KO-FI (â personal reading)
CUBE 1

The majority of them are likely intimidated by you. You seem to emanate an air of competence and confidence that make them question their worth. They probably ask themselves if you really need them in your life, what value can they contribute to your life. Because you seem to not need any unnecessary attachments and focus on your success. You seem to be very ambitious and determined when it comes to social status and money. You're serious and hardworking, ready to put up with the grind and challenges, as long as you can achieve your goals.
You're not warm and friendly, but you can charm anyone, like a fantasy, a perception spiral that draws in people's eyes. The snake and the apple together, the cat and mouse, the tiger and the deer, the bee and the tree, these pairs form an image of something forbidden and dangerous. Those who are attracted to you romantically feel like they're being preyed upon,but they can't help but want to come closer. Some would think that you would make a great trophy and elevate their status and value if they're seen being with you.
They think you like to keep a roster of admirers around you just for fun. Like you're toying with them, giving them the illusion of hope but always out of reach. Whatever you're showing to the world, people can only admire from afar, they are not allowed to touch. If you flaunt your beauty and talent, it's simply because you like to, without any motives of capturing a specific someone's heart. They can feel like you just want to capture the heart of everyone, the adoration of the mass rather than of any individuals.
The way you speak can be teasing. Your words seem to have hidden meanings, innuendos that only a discerning ears and a sharp mind can catch on. You don't like to argue or shut down anyone. You seek verbal entertainment and companionship everywhere you go. They may feel a little cautious when talking to you, afraid of unwittingly slipping up some of their secrets. And they don't know if you would use those to your advantage later on.
Being in a relationship with you feeling a tug of war, a struggle for power and domination. You don't do the subtle game when it comes to someone you're interested in. Once someone becomes your target, they can't help but feel like they're being hunted. And I think some actually want to be willing preys. Because they feel like it can transform them, that they can experience the highest of high and the lowest of low when they're with you. It would take a brave soul to stand in front of you without running away after some displays of power.
CUBE 2

They probably think you're a work hard, play-hard person, you know how to get what you want and how to have fun. You have an air of graceful but passionate competence that is not for the weak of heart. The first thing they notice about you is your go-getter attitude, you seem to have whatever, whoever you want, you set your sight on something or someone, next moment, they are yours. You just know how to go after your desire. But not in an aggressive manner at all, just pure confidence and focus. This also makes them think that you have everything you want already, you don't really need anything that doesn't add value to your life. You might be a target for some opportunists who want to bask in the light of your abundance. But you're wise and discerning enough not to entertain them.
Your admirers might feel that your life is not very stable at the moment or was like that in the past, you had to face something very difficult and had triumphed it. This gives you a resilient yet shrew way of viewing life. They sense that you will be able to get out every crisis with ease, because you're experienced and no stranger to the act of reinventing yourself. This also makes you a little slippery, as if no one, nothing can hold you down, you're always free and belong to yourself only. Some are very intrigued by this depth and attitude, they want to explore more, to see your hidden demons, it's thrilling, like trying to conquer a mystical creature of the deep.
You probably don't show these demons of yours to just anyone. The way you talk doesn't have any hint of struggle, you know just what to show, what to conceal. To everyone, you're this perfect creature that nothing can stand in your way. You also have the tendency to point out fallacy and pretence. They think they won't have any chance with you if they try to act over the top, boast or flaunt unreal achievements in front of you, deceit is out of the window, you have no patience for that. You seek someone who can elevate your spirit, someone who is your equal, who can confront you and stand their ground.
In love, you are much more softer, you like to joke, to play with your lover. In fact, romance is something vital to you, no matter how much you try to disguise it behind the image of independence. To the people you love, you're loyal to the extreme, you're willing to go through any hell for them, that's why you're extremely picky. Some would mistake your general detached friendliness as romantic interest. You could strike up a conversation with any stranger and easily get them to open up, but you don't let them in easy, not without some testings first.
CUBE 3

You have an interesting combination of strongwill strength and softness that can be seen in various situations. Your admirers' views of you might differ wildly, maybe you attract different kinds of people and they have different way of perceiving you, some can see a trait more prominent, some see other traits as more representative of who you are as a person.
At first glance, you can be authoritative and protective of your energy. You come off as reserved and a little bit aloof, someone who prioritises their peace and solitude above all else. But you aren't standoffish or dismissive of others. When the situation calls for it, you can step up and work well with others. Some would see you as a protector, while others see you as the one who needs protection. There's vulnerability in your expression, but you're never a victim. You know how to direct your life as your own master. But at times, some can see that you don't welcome them at first interaction, almost as if you're trying to run away or hide from them. It takes a lot to gain your trust and for you to open up with someone. Even then, they still feel like you're ready to bolt at the slightest of threat.
But in general, their impression of you is favourable. Once you've decided that you can trust a person, you relax and be in your nurturing energy more. You're a loyal friend, even those with romantic intentions can see this clearly about you, this is what they find so attractive about you. They feel that being with you won't be just like being with a lover, but with a best friend, their biggest supporter, and a cheerleader. Your light doesn't outshine others, it enlivens and inspires other to shine on their own. Your admirers find your individuality and creativity really attractive. They admire you as a person, and at the same time, feel hopeful and lifted up by your energy, which makes them want to be like that themselves. You have a way to nurture the biggest treasure in a person, you help them connect with a deeper meaning in life.
Some can feel lost in your energy because it's too encompassing. They wonder if the compassion you give them is for them only or is it universal. So they can feel like they're competing with a lot in your life for your attention. You make them feel so grounded, yet you remain elusive. They feel that no matter how much they try, how close they get to you, how long they're with you, they can't never grasp your true essence.
CUBE 4

Many would think that you're hiding a vulnerable inner self behind a mask of bravery and strength. They feel like fear is the main motivator of your actions. You don't want people to discover that you're actually a vulnerable human being, that you can be needy and fearful, that you need someone to protect you. Because you feel that showing that side of you to the world will make you an easy target for exploitation and hurt. So you don a mask of independence, sometimes aggressively.
You're on guard towards strangers, but to the people who have gotten to know you better, your admirers included, they can see that soft heart of yours and they really love it. It's the contradictory energy within you that intrigues lots of people. You can look fierce on moment, but if something happens to touch your heart, your expression can immediately soften. Behind the hard exterior is a caring and nurturing person. As long as you feel safe in their presence, you can relax and act more spontaneously. Your laugh might be very contagious, filled with pure joy that can immediately make the other person feeling at ease with you.
In a group, you can assume the role of a "leader" or someone who can give the direction and guide people. You don't like to talk too much but still have a way to make people listen and respect your opinions. But some can feel that you tend to hide your true intentions, your plan. You might show off your skill, your verbal dexterity, but you don't like to actually talk about your deeper thoughts. You like to make people around you laugh, but you don't want to reveal your sadness. It's like, when it comes to your own world, your own path, you don't want anyone to see it, lest they hinder you from moving forward. This can make some people think that you can be sneaky and strategic in your moves. What they see might not be what they get.
This group feels shorter and hard to articulate because there's a resistance. Even when you do allow people into your world, you are still reluctant to let them in fully. Some will feel frustrated and give up, and some will take it as a challenge and want to advance deeper to finally solve your mystery.

nagumo yoichi x f! reader
summary: nagumo couldnât stand the thought of losing you.
warning: english is not my first language. apologies for any grammatical or spelling errors.

â nagumo knew the consequences of letting a fragile thing as love into his world. directing that love to someone within his world makes it even worse. as much as he loves to flaunt his carefree personality that made even his group of friends doubt the amount of care he puts into things, he knew to himself that he cares more than he lets on.
itâs one thing getting a scratch. itâs another to be admitted in the hospital in the name of a job.
he didnât know how it came to it. you were the strongest in the order after sakamoto left, after all. but you had fallen injured badly, enough to send you off to a hospital bed. maybe it was that sheer strength and dependability you had that allowed people to forget that you are still first and foremost, a human being. maybe it was the relaxed smile you gave him that eased away his tense shoulders. he didnât know, but he believed youâd come back the same way you departed.
unscathed and safe, the complete opposite of what you look like right now.
he sits by your hospital bed where you lay, silently observing how your chest rose and fell repeatedly. every time it does, a part of him feels a little relieved. it was a reminder that you were aliveâthat you haven't completely left him just yet.
then, the slightest twitch of your finger.
nagumo nearly fell off his seat rushing over to you, observing as your eyes slowly fluttered open. immediately, nagumo pressed the button by your bed and called for the nurse frantically.
"you're ok." he whispered, barely audible as the sight of his relieved face pooled your vision for the first time in a while. somehow, even in such a delicate state, you managed to crack a smile at him.
"hey, handsome." you grin.
"shh, save your breath." it was so unlike him, to be so serious. he didn't even respond to your light-hearted greeting like he normally would.
nagumo was, in short, different since then.
from the moment you woke up to the time you were discharged, nagumo neverânot onceâcracked a joke. everyone who had come to visit you were a witness to his change in demeanor. it was eerie, and it was beginning to get uncomfortable. the nagumo you knew isn't anything like that. he would have laughed at death right at the faceâmaybe add a poking finger or two at the cheek. that was the kind of man you knew him to be.
it gets weirder when he became a little more clingy since then. in your shared home, he would never be more than two meters away from you. when you go from one room to another, so does he.
need a drink? he does too. wanna cook lunch? he's already making your favorite. wanna take a walk to the park? oh, the sun's lovely for a picnic date! anything you do, nagumo does too.
you love that he spends more time with you, especially since your profession doesn't care much for cherished moments, but it's beginning to worry you more than relax you.
it was one day when he cuddled into you and the warmth of your bed that you decided to address the situation. you were simply reading a new book when nagumo declared himself the little spoon and laid his head on your chest to "read along". we all know he wasn't reading.
"nagumo, darling." you call softly, nestling your nose onto his mop of raven hair. then, you shut your book. "we need to talk."
"aww, we were getting to the good part!" he whined, referring to the book you just closed. with a pout, he raises his head up to lock eyes with your own. "you need anything? do your stitches hurt? shit, did it rip open?!"
"no, no." you sigh, easing him down with a brush of your hand through his hair. your fingers carded through gently, almost lulling him to sleep. "nagumo, while i do appreciate your increased concern, i fear it's getting a little out of hand."
"how could caring for you be out of hand?" he chuckled lightly. "if anything, i should have done this a long time ago!"
you look at him for awhile, pausing. it's hard to decipher what he thinks about at times, but the main factor as to why he knew you were the one was because you figure it out one way or another. "i'm right here." was all you could muster to say.
who knew that such simple words were enough to rip the sickening fake smile right off his face? before you knew it, his tattooed arms tightened around your figure, fearing that you might slip away if he hadn't held on tight enough. his face buried itself on your chest in shame, as if he knew he was caught in a heinously unforgivable act.
"you could have died." he mumbled through your skin.
"yet i'm here."
"you won't leave me, right?"
with a tender smile, you carefully raised his face from your chest. you didn't need to tell him. your eyes were filled with so much love, he couldn't be happier to see it manifest in real life. suddenly, the heat from your palm were a little warmer on his cheek that day. his fingers jolted with electricity at the touch of your skin. his eyes narrowed down to you, forgetting about everything else as only you remain in his vision. like a deer caught in a trance, too enamored by your presence.
"you can't get rid of me that easily, darling." you whisper against his lips, and oh he loved how it caressed on his skin. then, he indulged in your aphrodisiac, letting go of all the heavy weight he's been carrying around since your accident. the feel of your lips on his was real enough to convince him that you were there to stayâthat if there is anyone in the world who wouldn't die on him, it would be you.
the one good thing he ever allowed himself to have in this world, and not once did you let him regret it.

my angel ŕťęą

âcome from way aboveâ â sevika x reader đ. đ
Got this idea while writing a Silco fic and realized not enough people are writing for this fine ass woman OHMYGOF
I miss my wife, tails. i miss her a lot.
âThis doesnât hurt, does it?â youâd ask as you treated Sevikaâs wound, carefully watching every faint expression on her face as you did so. She only grunted in response before letting her head fall into her hand. Considering the positions you both assumed, the woman had been towering over you as you sat comfortably between her legs dressing her abdominal wound. âAaw , weâre almost done. Just keep being good for me, yeah?â Youâd tease with a passive pat to her thigh as you prepped yourself to wrap her waist.
âShut upâ Sheâd force through a wince as you applied pressure to the deep cut, wrapping it as you did so. âYou talk too muchâ
Once you finished the wrap your hands were quick to roam. Snaking up her chest, and latching onto her neck as you pulled your lips onto her jaw. âKeep getting hurt like this and I might just have to give Silco a little visit for all the trouble he keeps putting you throughâ Sevika scoffed, half-amused at your wit as she leaned back into the chair. âThat man would eat you alive, sweetheartâ The petname came off more condescending than endearing as Sevika undermined your words, even brushing off the genuine concern behind the joke with a bittersweet smirk.
âOh, you promise?â Now it was your turn to laugh as you watched that smirk wipe clean off her face when her expression grew darker. You ignored her very obvious mood change and continued cleaning up your gear. âYâknow, maybe I could get you that pay raise. What do you think?â Youâd stand from your crouched position and slowly spin around, flaunting your body at the woman. You even grabbed her rugged hand and bring it to your hip as you knelt into the seat of the chair that had been exposed between her legs.
âHilarious.â She wouldnât even half mind you as her hand quickly replaced your hip with a cigar. You rolled your eyes at her passiveness before returning to the ground to clean up your mess. At some point you even walked away allowing Sevika to smoke in peace as you cleaned your equipment.
Once you reentered the room, youâd find Sevika casually reclined on your couch with an unlit cigar still hanging out the side of her mouth. As you got closer her eyes locked on to you, roaming you up and down but once they reached your face, they softened. Just two gentle, big eyes admiring from a distance as you admired back. You were snapped out of your trance when she threw a lighter at you. You caught the metal with ease and examined it. âYou forgot to light meâ She said plainly, attempting to hide the sentiment she held toward the action. It was reminiscent of the first time the two of you met outside a brothel. Long story short, Sevika was quick to describe you as a huge distraction to her mission that day despite your short interaction that even you barely remembered.
âHow cruel of meâ You knelt down in front of the couch, now back to admiring your partner from below as her half lidded eyes met your wide ones. Her hand, rough as it was, gently held your cheek as her thumb brushed over your bottom lip. You felt yourself melt into her warm palm as the contrast between her calloused hand and your plush skin sent chills down your skin. You sparked the lighter twice before bringing it to the end of Sevikaâs cigar.
She watched you. Allowing the flame to illuminate your soft expressions, and in her eyes, manipulating your features. Making you resemble yourself that night many years ago. She wasnât any less taken by your more aged features if anything she appreciated them. Glad to see you grow older alongside her than having to admire your beauty from an ageless photo. You would notice her unwavering stare once you tossed the lighter aside and decided to make brief conversation. âYou know, I donât remember much of the first time we metâ Sevika took a puff of her cigar before nodding urging you to continue. âBut I remember without a doubt the second timeâ
âIâd be more concerned if you didnâtâ She chuckled under her breath as the memories came flooding in. You took note of her already flaking cigar as she held it between her two fingers. Quickly, you placed your ceramic tray gently to her stomach just in time to catch the ash. âThat guy had a lot of nerve putting his hands on you, youâre lucky I was there. Otherwise, who knows the things he wouldâve didââ Sevika cursed at the thought.
âWell, you were there and I am forever grateful for you,â your voice was low as you rub senseless shapes across her wrist with the pad of your thumb. âmy angelâ the words were hushed as you kissed the base of her palm, then her wrist, down her arm, and back up her shoulder until you reached her nape where you took a moment. In this time, you pushed yourself onto her, feeling her shift to a more seated position to accommodate for you, you straddle her hips as you tossed your arms carelessly over her shoulders. The ceramic tray had fallen out from under you meeting the concrete with a shattering sound as the shards dispersed. âDamn itâ You sighed as you began shifting away from your partner only for her to rest a heavy hand on your waist.
âIâll clean it, laterâ Sevika gently guided you back into herself only to latch onto your neck. A shaky breath left your agape lips as you laid helplessly above Sevika. The heat in your cheeks only spread as she shamelessly left those sticky love bites all over your neck.
The sounds that fell from your lips only further egged her on as she found herself getting lower and her hand higher as it slid up your stomach. Eventually, you grew fed up with her slow teasing and brought your fingertips to the seams of your shirt and watched as Sevikaâs gaze grew harsh with anticipation. You were ready to lift the cloth but quickly felt your blood run cold as three heavy knocked fell against your front door. You practically jumped out your skin as Sevika scowled at the source of the noise. âFuck, Iâll get itâ You held a hand over your heart as your slowly opened the door, meeting the eyes of a man who seemed to be one of Silcoâs goons.
âSevika, boss needs yaâ The man completely disregarded you. You huffed under your breath and glanced up noticing how she was already behind you, prying the door further open. âGotchu, now get the hell out of here before somebody sees youâ Sevikaâs voice was cold and harsh as she talked with the man, her tone almost foreign to you as you waited behind the door for Sevika to finish. Once she did, the door was shut with a frustrated grunt as she leant up against the door contemplating her next move.
âYou need me to kill him?â From behind, you brought both your arms around her, pressing your face against her shoulder, you felt her laugh. âIâm sure you could.â She turned around and pressed a brief kiss to your temple. âDrinks on me next date to make up for thisâ
âDrinks are always on youâ Your thumbs rubbed anxiously against her waist as you become increasingly aware of how much you hated when she left.
âGuess I need to stop fucking up, thenâ She gave your cheek on last stroke before turning to leave only to be stopped when you grabbed her mech hand. âYouâre off to a bad start if youâre just gonna leave like thatâ You pulled yourself into her chest, standing on your toes as your lips locked with hers. Moving in tandem, Sevika fell against the door as you cupped her face in your palms and grew warm as her hand fell on the small of your back. Toward the end of your kiss you felt that warm, genuine smile of hers form against your lips as you fell back onto your heels.
âBe sure to fly back home to me, my angelâ
god punishes me by making my wives fictional :( also have yall read that hexstrap fic??? sevika please just the tip đđŠ

A/N: Please note! I'm still away with limited to no access to internet! Now, letâs talk about this story. A couple of quick notes: originally, I had a mini-series planned as a gift fic for @redfoxwritesstuff similar to this prompt. So, naturally, I decided to hijack the prompt and turn it into a little taste test of what you can expect from me next year. Also, fair warningâthis one-shot is long AF. Enjoy! Also Kit said this was a very fluffy-wuffy story â¨ď¸
SUMMARY: When Alastor summons a demon to strike a deal, heâs horrified to discover the entity is none other than his future selfâa twisted, unrecognizable Overlord of Hell. The price for their agreement? Allowing his future counterpart a single night with you. But as the night unfolds, the deal unravels, and Alastor is confronted with a vision of his destiny and a choice.
TAGS/WARNINGS: f!reader, demon alastor, human alastor, period typical racism, reader is white for plot reason, p in v, cucking, big smoll sad, it made kit's eyes water lol, time travel, human!alastor is a jerk, human!alastor is bad with feelings, @safination i'm not here right now so you have my permission to lovingly yell at Kit.
When Alastor, your enigmatic and ever-poised boss, had called you for the first time early evening, asking you to meet him in his office, your heart thudded wildly, teetering between anticipation and trepidation. Alastor never went out of his way to summon youâit was always you lingering behind, staying past your hours, quietly soaking in his presence as he worked tirelessly.Â
This was different.Â
It felt intimate.Â
Youâd spent an hour preparing, choosing your best dressâa sleek, elegant number that hugged your form just enough to be alluring without being improper. A touch of makeup brought colour to your cheeks, but not too much; you wanted to be perfect, to catch his eye. Yet, despite your efforts, you knew how he would react. Alastorâs gaze was always detached, his smile fixed, his brow quirking only slightly when you adorned yourself in jewels or dresses that begged for attention. Still, you couldnât help but try, craving even the smallest acknowledgement.Â
But what bound you to Alastor wasnât something you could ever flaunt. It was your secretâa dangerous one that you carried with trembling hands and a racing heart. The two of you were entangled in a forbidden affair, one that defied both class and the suffocating bigotry of your family.Â
Alastor was beneath your stationâa man your father would see erased from existence if he ever knew. Worse still, he wasnât even of your race, a detail that would ensure not just scorn, but ruination.Â
Despite the risks, you couldnât quell the fervent pulse of your heart or the fire that grew with every lingering glance, every stolen moment. You loved him. But you would never dare breathe those words aloud. Love, you were certain, would drive him away, or worse, force him to sever your professional ties altogether. No, you resolved to bury it deep within you, content to simply bask in his presence, treasuring every fleeting second by his side.Â
The taxi ride to the radio station felt eternal, every bump on the road a reminder of your growing tension. Your stomach coiled with a delicious, agonizing heat, your mind a swirl of fantasies about what the night might hold. Would his hands be on you? His voiceâa low, sultry murmur in your ear? You had lied with practised ease to your mother, telling her you were meeting a friend, knowing the scandal it would incite if anyone knew you were alone with an unmarried man in the dead of night.Â
You stepped through the radio station doors, your pulse hammering like a drumbeat in your ears. Each step toward his office sent a ripple of nerves through you, your hand trembling as you raised it to knock. The soft rap of your knuckles against the wood echoed in the empty hall.Â
âCome in,â came the familiar cadence of Alastorâs voice, low and steady, but there was a rasp beneath it that made your skin prickle.Â
As you pushed the door open, your breath caught in your throat. The world seemed to tilt, your vision narrowing to the abomination lounging in Alastorâs chair. It wasnât him. It couldnât be.Â
The creature was grotesque, its twisted form a nightmare made flesh. Its grin stretched impossibly wide, revealing too many sharp, glistening teeth. Your knees threatened to give out as you stumbled back, a trembling hand flying to cover your mouth.Â
âS-Sir,â you stammered, your voice a feeble whisper. Tears welled in your eyes as you pointed a shaking finger at the monstrosity before you. Your mind screamed at you to flee, but your legs felt as if theyâd been turned to lead.Â
And at that moment, all the fantasies, the yearning, the secret desiresâall of it shattered, leaving you drowning in a sea of terror.Â
In the chair where Alastor usually sat was a figure so utterly alien, so menacing, that your breath hitched in your throat. Your eyes widened, taking in every horrifying detail.Â
The creatureâs stark, blood-red hair fell in a sharp bob, the blackened tips framing his face with an eerie precision. Two tufts of hair atop his head mimicked ears, their softness betraying the menace of the antler-like bones that protruded from his skull. These jagged horns gleamed under the low light, their surface polished and unyielding. The skin stretched over his sharp features was a ghostly grey, as if every drop of blood had been leached from his body. His long claws glistened, crimson as though freshly dipped in blood, and their razor-like points promised destruction with a single swipe.Â
His choice of attire was oddly elegantâa dapper, pin-striped red suit that hung impeccably on his tall frame, paired with a crimson shirt beneath. The vivid fabric clung to him, amplifying the danger in his already striking presence. When his gaze lifted to yours, your stomach churned. His eyes were an unsettling sea of red, the sclera and iris indistinguishable except for the black, slit-like pupils that seemed to pierce straight into your soul.Â
âWhy, hello there!â the monster greeted you, his voice dripping with exaggerated joviality. The sound was layered with static, like a distorted broadcast through a radio, dissonant and grating against your ears.Â
As he rose from the chair, his height became even more terrifying. The tattered ends of his jacket fluttered slightly, like the remnants of a garment torn through battles untold. He was impossibly tall, towering so far above you that even Alastorâs impressive stature seemed diminutive in comparison.Â
âYouâve arrived pretty quickly,â a familiar voice interrupted your spiralling fear, anchoring you for a brief moment. Your head snapped toward the sound, and relief flooded your chest as your boss came into view. Alastor was seated on the plush couch to the side, his elbow resting on the armrest, one hand pressed to his temple as though nursing a splitting headache.Â
âS-sir,â you called out, your voice trembling as you instinctively shuffled closer to him. Every nerve in your spine prickled, the weight of the monsterâs unblinking gaze crawling over you like bugs. He grinned widerâunnaturally soâhis yellowed teeth gleaming in the dim light, the corners of his mouth stretching impossibly far, as if the act of smiling alone was tearing his face apart.Â
Alastor rose fluidly from the couch, his presence commanding despite the monstrous figure looming nearby. With a calmness that baffled you, he reached out and took your trembling hand, his touch steady and grounding as he gently pulled you closer to his body.Â
Your heart raced, your cheeks burning as his fingers brushed against your skin. You tilted your head up, seeking answers in his expression, but his whisky brown eyes were unreadable, his smile just as enigmatic as always. Why wasnât he alarmed by the abomination in his office?Â
âMy dear,â Alastor purred, his deep voice resonating through you like a caress. The sound sent a shiver down your spine, and your head instinctively dipped, your gaze lowering to his polished shoes. Heat rushed through your veins as your body unconsciously fell into a submissive pose, the practised habit of yielding to his authority deeply ingrained from the private games youâd shared.Â
His chuckle was warm, teasing, a sound that both soothed and tingled your nerves. He lifted a hand, his long fingers tilting your chin upward with an almost tender touch. His smile softened, though it remained wicked at the edges.Â
âI need you to do me a favour, darling,â he murmured, his voice soft yet commanding, the undertones so addicting you felt yourself nodding before the words fully registered.Â
âA-anything, sir,â you stammered, your voice trembling with unease. Instinctively, your fingers twitched toward him, longing for reassurance, but you stopped yourself, letting your hands fall to your sides. You knew betterâAlastor disliked being touched without his permission, and crossing that line would only make things worse.Â
His grin widened, a sinister curve that sent a chill down your spine. For a moment, it mirrored the demonâs unsettling smile, sharp and predatory. âExcellent,â he mused, his tone deceptively light. Then, with an elegant step back, he distanced himself from you, leaving a void where his warmth had been. You shivered, feeling the icy tendrils of isolation creep in.Â
Turning his attention to the monster, Alastor tilted his head, his expression unreadable but his voice cutting like a blade. âYou see, my little assistant would do anything for me.â His chuckle was dry, short, and devoid of emotionâa sound you were intimately familiar with. âSo, do what you will with her, and weâll conclude our arrangement.âÂ
The words struck like a thunderclap, dousing you in a cold wave of shock. Your body froze, your mind racing to process what he had just said. You turned to him, wide-eyed and pleading, hopingâprayingâfor some sign that this was a cruel joke, a test of your devotion. But the cold detachment in his dull, brown eyes offered no comfort.Â
The monster loomed closer, his presence suffocating, his malevolent aura wrapping around you like a vice. Your chest tightened as fear clawed its way up your throat, and you finally understood. Alastor had summoned this beingâa blasphemous act, all for some dark purpose. Was this your fate? Had he lured you here to offer you as a sacrifice?Â
Tears burned in your eyes, the sting mingling with the sharp ache in your chest. Your nose tingled as you fought to hold back a sob. You had said you would do anything for him, but now the weight of that promise crushed you.Â
Would you die for him?Â
Could you?Â
The monsterâs low, guttural chuckle rumbled through the room, a sound that vibrated in your very bones. His eyes glowed with a hellish light, his razor-sharp teeth gleaming as his grin widened, promising pain. You hiccuped, your trembling gaze darting back to Alastor, silently begging him to stop whatever horror he had set in motion.Â
As the monster drew closer, his towering form engulfed you. You whimpered, your eyes squeezing shut, bracing yourself for the agony you were certain would follow. But instead of searing pain, there was a gentle touchâa feather-light brush of fingers against your skin.Â
Cautiously, you opened your eyes, your breath hitching as you met his gaze. The malevolence was gone, replaced by something softer, almostâŚtender. His grin had dulled, the sharpness of his teeth no longer as menacing.Â
âMy, I was such a bully to you, wasnât I, cher?â he murmured, his voice low and intimate. He stepped closer, his movements slow and deliberate, as though not to startle you. Gently, he lifted your trembling hand, his clawed fingers cradling it with surprising care. His eyes fluttered closed as he pressed a soft kiss to the back of your hand, the unexpected tenderness unravelling the knot of fear in your chest.Â
âAlâŚAlastor?â The name slipped from your lips unbidden, your voice barely above a whisper. This creature looked nothing like your boss, yet his mannerismsâthe way he spoke, the delicate way he touched youâfelt achingly familiar.Â
The monsterâs eyes snapped open, a flicker of something unreadable crossing his face. Slowly, his gaze locked onto yours, the intensity in his glowing red eyes pinning you in place. His body shifted closer, his towering frame crowding you, but without the suffocating malice from before.Â
One hand slid to rest gently on your hip, the other cupping your cheek with a touch so light it felt like a whisper against your skin. His thumb traced slow, deliberate circles, brushing the warmth of your cheek as though memorizing every detail.Â
âYouâre as beautiful as I remember you to be, cher,â he said, his voice soft, almost reverent. The words were spoken as if they were meant for you alone, a secret shared in the space between your breaths. The tenderness in his tone sent a pang through your chest, your fear melting into confusion, longing, and something deeperâsomething that tugged at the very core of you.Â
Your eyes darted past the monster, seeking the warmth and steadiness of Alastorâs familiar brown gaze, but he wasnât looking at you. Instead, he busied himself with tidying the scattered books on the floor, his movements precise, almost indifferent.Â
âI suppose youâd like an explanation?â The monsterâs voice lilted with amusement, the tone grating against your raw nerves.Â
You tried to speak, to demand answers, but your throat felt constricted, the weight of fear pressing your lips shut. What could you possibly say when confronted with something so unnatural, so wrong?Â
The monsterâs grin widened as he studied your silence, his laughter cutting through the tension like jagged glass. âMy younger, alive self, I might add,â he began, voice dripping with mockery, âdecided it would be a brilliant idea to summon a demon. And what a surpriseâI managed to transcend time itself, back to when I still drew breath. Ha!âÂ
He chuckled, the sound lighthearted, as if he were recounting an amusing anecdote instead of explaining your potential doom. With an unsettling ease, he began to sway you side to side, guiding your body like a puppet, as though a melody only he could hear played in his mind.Â
âW-what?â you stammered, your voice barely audible, the weight of his words sinking in.Â
The demon leaned closer, his glowing red eyes narrowing as he held you in his gaze. âYou see, cher, your dear father was planning to pull out his support. Said the new age of entertainment was approaching,â he purred, his tone lowering, his words curling like smoke around you. âHe claimed the radio was a dying medium. Can you imagine?âÂ
Your heart stuttered, the implication dawning on you in jagged pieces.Â
Before you could process further, the demon pulled back, his face twisted into an unsettlingly cheerful grin. âSo,â he continued, his voice unnervingly jovial, âmy younger self decided to strike a deal with me.âÂ
Without warning, he yanked you closer, your body pressed firmly against his towering frame. His claws trailed lightly along your arm, his grip firm yet almost reverent as he tilted your chin up to meet his gaze. His sharp teeth flashed in a grotesque mockery of a smile as he leaned in, his words soft and poisonous.Â
âHelp him convince your father to keep his investment in the radio business,â he explained, âand in return, I get youâfor one night. However I please.â He sighed wistfully, as if the thought alone was a gift.Â
âIâŚâ The swirl of emotions in your chest was unbearableâfear, disgust, betrayal, and a growing sense of dread. Your stomach churned, and tears pricked at the corners of your eyes. The enormity of what he was saying crashed down on you like a tidal wave. Alastor had sold you. Sold you to thisâŚthis demon for a fleeting deal.Â
Your voice wavered, cracking under the weight of your panic. âP-pl-please,â you whimpered, trembling in his grasp. âI-I can convince my father. I swearâplease, just donât hurt me.â A tear slipped down your cheek, hot and bitter, the first of many as your resolve crumbled into despair.Â
Behind the demon, Alastorâs voice cut through the moment, sharp and impatient. âThink of it as anotherâŚact,â he said with an air of dismissal, waving his hand as though the entire situation was trivial. His arms crossed over his chest, his expression tight with irritation. âIâm ordering you, for one night, to experience pleasure with another man, ah, rather an otherworldly being. Surely, you love following my orders, donât you?âÂ
His grin was forced, brittle at the edges, and his gaze was devoid of the warmth you had once clung to. The coldness in his voice pierced you deeper than the demonâs claws ever could.Â
Something deep within you cracked, a fracture so profound it reverberated through your entire being. The tears came harder now, streaking down your cheeks in silence as the pain hollowed out your chest. Your voice faltered, swallowed by the void left behind by his betrayal. You were adrift, unmoored, and utterly broken.Â
Before you could fully crumble in the demonâs arms, his voice cut through the storm of your emotions, soft yet laced with disapproval. âMy, my, my,â he sighed, shaking his head with an air of mock disappointment. With a sharp snap of his fingers, the air crackled, and tendrils of shadow unfurled from the floor like living smoke. They coiled around Alastorâs limbs, binding him in place.Â
âHeyââ Alastor managed to bark before one of the tendrils silenced him, curling tightly over his mouth. His eyes burned with malice, glaring daggers at the demon. The raw hatred radiating from him sent a shiver cascading down your spine.Â
The demon tutted, wagging a clawed finger as though scolding a misbehaving child. âTsk, tsk. Iâm quite certain our mother taught us better manners when it comes to treating the fairer sex, wouldn't you agree?â he chided, the red monocle adorning his eye gleaming in the dim light like a sly wink directed at you.Â
He turned his attention back to you, and before you could shrink away, his arms enfolded you in a firm embrace. âNow, now, cher,â he murmured, his voice a warm, honeyed drawl. âNo need for tears. I dare say, Iâm truly amazed. Imagine⌠falling in love with me, despite everything.â His head tilted, amusement dancing in his crimson gaze as his grin softened ever so slightly.Â
Your muscles locked, your mind too frazzled to process his words. Your wide eyes remained fixed on Alastor, bound and seething within the shadowy restraints. âP-please, Mr. Demon, y-youâre hurting him,â you stammered, trembling as helplessness gripped your frame.Â
âOh, sweet thing, donât you worry about him,â the demon cooed, his tone light yet edged with a strange finality. âAnd for the record, Iâd prefer it if you called me Al.âÂ
âA-Al?â The name felt foreign on your tongue as you hesitantly turned your gaze back to him.Â
âThatâs right,â he replied with a theatrical flourish, a microphone staff materializing in his hand out of thin air. He stepped back, spreading his arms as though addressing an invisible audience. âAllow me to properly introduce myself!â His grin widened, impossibly sharp. âI am Alastorâthe Radio Demon. I hail from the future, though I come bearing tidings from Hell itself! It's a pleasure to meet you, again! Haha!â His laughter echoed, rich and chilling. âBut for you, my darling, you may simply call me Al. I much prefer it that way.âÂ
His words sank in like stones, heavy and impossible. This demon⌠this creature who had embraced you so intimately⌠was Alastor. Your Alastor. The very thought clawed at your sanity, pulling you deeper into the pit of madness.Â
âHow⌠how is this possible?â you whispered, the question barely audible over the hammering of your heart.Â
His response was another snap of his fingers, the sound sharp and commanding. The plush sofa in the corner of the room shimmered and transformed, warping into a small, inviting bed.Â
âAnything is possible with a little magic, darling,â he said with a devilish grin, his hand slipping to the small of your back, guiding you toward the bed. His voice dropped, a velvet purr curling through his words. âAnd my time here is fleeting. So, cher, allow me this one indulgenceâto feel you once more, as Iâve longed to do.âÂ
âY-youâre Alastor,â you murmured, your voice soft, trembling as your mind wavered on the precipice of disbelief and reluctant acceptance. It felt surreal, like a twisted fairy tale brought to life.Â
âThe one and only,â he declared with a radiant grin that sent a jolt of familiarity straight to your heart. For a moment, your breath hitched. That smileâit was Alastorâs, unmistakably his. The way his lips curled, the self-assured confidence radiating from himâit mirrored the expression youâd seen so many times after his broadcasts, a smile brimming with satisfaction and happiness.Â
But now, that smile belonged to thisâto him.Â
As he followed you to the bed, his movements unhurried yet purposeful, you found yourself sinking into the mattress, your body trembling with a cascade of emotions you couldnât contain. The instant he sat beside you, you threw your arms around his neck, clutching him as though he might vanish into smoke if you let go. Pressing your face against his chest, you whispered, voice quivering under the weight of your heartache, âW-why are you in Hell?âÂ
Tears spilled freely, soaking into the fine fabric of his jacket. Your words, soft and trembling, carried a deeper pain than you realized. âWhy?â you repeated, pulling back just enough to meet his gaze, your blurred vision making his grin all the more surreal.Â
The concept of Hell clawed at your mindâa place of endless torment, unimaginable cruelty, and eternal suffering. The thought of Alastor, your Alastor, enduring such a fate twisted your stomach into knots. Your hands, trembling with hesitation and sorrow, rose to frame his face. The grin on his lips remained unchanged, unfaltering, though its presence felt like a knife plunged into your chest.Â
âI-is it scary?â you asked, voice breaking under the weight of your despair. âIs it⌠painful?â The tears came harder now, spilling like a deluge, each one carrying another fragment of your breaking heart. âIs thereâŚâ you hiccuped, searching his eyes for something, anything, ââŚanything I can do? ToâŚto save your soul?âÂ
For a moment, he froze, his crimson eyes fixed on you. Then his lips parted, and laughter spilled forthâa sound both melodic and unhinged, a discordant symphony that sent shivers rippling across your skin.Â
âOh, my!â he exclaimed between peals of manic laughter, his head tilting unnaturally. With a sickening crack, his neck twisted in a full circle, the motion so grotesque you flinched. He turned his warped grin toward the immobilized Alastor, bound by shadows in the corner of the room. âShe doesnât know?â he howled, the sound echoing as though bouncing off invisible walls. âHahaha! She doesnât know! Oh, this is rich!âÂ
You stared, frozen in both awe and horror, as the man you loved unravelled into something far stranger, far darker. The resemblance to Alastor was undeniableâthe mannerisms, the way he carried himselfâbut there was something else, too. Something foreign, something⌠wrong. He was a blurred reflection, a distorted echo of the man you thought you knew.Â
Without warning, his head snapped back to face you. Before you could process the movement, his lips descended on yours, the suddenness of it stealing your breath. You stiffened, your body rigid with shock. But then his lips moved, tender and familiar, in the exact way Alastor used to kiss you. The familiarity melted your resolve, and against your better judgment, your fingers brushed against the lapels of his jacket.Â
His hand came to rest on yours, gently clasping your trembling fingers.Â
âCher,â he murmured, his voice a soft, aching melody. His lips brushed against yours again, as though afraid this moment would slip away. âOh, how Iâve missed you, cher,â he whispered, the raw longing in his tone unravelling something deep inside you.Â
He pressed you back onto the bed, his weight settling over you like a ghost of memories long past. If you closed your eyes, you could almost convince yourself it was himâyour Alastor. It was so easy to believe it was his hands, his voice, his breath against your skin.Â
âIâm not⌠with you...down there?â you whispered, your voice breaking as he finally pulled back, his forehead resting against yours, breaths mingling.Â
For a fleeting moment, something unspoken flickered in his crimson eyesâpain. Then it was gone, replaced by his ever-present grin. âOf course not, silly girl,â he said, his voice laced with a deceptive lightness. He pressed a soft kiss to your cheek, his touch gentle despite the shadows that clung to him.Â
âYour soul, of course, went to Heaven,â he continued with a wistful chuckle. âHow could it not? Youâre far too pure, too precious for the likes of Hell.â His words were tender, yet they carried an undertone of something far darker. Something that left you both mesmerized and terrified.Â
The way Al held you was intimate, possessive, and far too tender to be anything other than the embrace of a lover. It was as though, in some distant future, you and he were entwined in a life you could only dream of.Â
Could it be true?Â
Your gaze shifted to Alastor, who was furiously struggling against the shadow tendrils pinning him in place. The sight of his thrashing form, his narrowed eyes burning with frustration, sent your heart pounding. The sound of your pulse roared in your ears as conflicting thoughts raced through your mind.Â
Perhaps, in the future, the world had changedâlaws once meant to keep you apart finally lifted. Perhaps Alastor had grown to see you, not as an assistant, but as someone worthy of his love. Perhaps, together, youâd built a life, a family, and shared moments of happiness you could scarcely imagine now.Â
But then, a darker thought surfaced. Perhaps Alastor had died, his soul condemned to Hell. If that was true, and this demon before you was proof of that fate, would your future self feel the same unbearable ache at being parted from him for eternity?Â
Tears welled in your eyes as the thought took root, threatening to undo you entirely. You buried your face against Alâs chest, his warmth anchoring you as you fought to calm the whirlwind of emotions. Hugging him tightly, you slowed your breathing, trying to chase away the storm of uncertainty.Â
âIâŚâ you started, but your voice faltered. You cast a glance back at Alastor, still bound and silenced, his struggle relentless. The words caught in your throat, and you pressed your lips tightly together, unwilling to voice your fears.Â
âWhatâs wrong, cher?â Al whispered against your hair, his voice soothing and laced with curiosity. He began peppering light kisses across your forehead and hairline, each touch feather-soft yet disarming. âIs it something you donât want my present self to hear?âÂ
Your body tensed in surprise. How had he read your thoughts so clearly?Â
He grinned mischievously, a spark of devilish delight flashing in his crimson eyes. With a sharp snap of his fingers, the shadow tendrils tightened around Alastorâs head, shrouding his eyes and ears. âThere. Now he canât see or hear us!â Al giggled, his claws tracing idle patterns down your arm before moving to the buttons of your dress.Â
âI never told you how much I admired your dresses, did I, cher?â he murmured, his tone dipping low, intimate.Â
âW-what?â you stammered, breath hitching as his fingers worked with slow precision, unfastening each button one by one.Â
âYou always tried so hard to catch my attention,â he said, his voice husky, tinged with regret. He leaned in, his lips brushing against your collarbone with a tender kiss. âAnd I, stubborn fool that I am, ignored the signsâdespite my obvious interest in you.âÂ
Another kiss landed on your other collarbone, his warm breath ghosting over your skin. His words sent a shiver coursing through you. âHave we made love yet, cher?â he asked, his voice barely above a whisper.Â
Love? The word echoed in your mind, foreign yet tantalizing. You and Alastor had shared moments, stolen kisses, and even acts of passion, but loveâŚ? You werenât sure if anything between you had ever been tender enough to call it that.Â
Your silence was answer enough. Al hummed softly, his lips quirking upward. âI suppose that tells me where I am in the timeline,â he mused, his fingers gliding over your skin as he peeled your dress away.Â
His sharp inhale was audible, his hands reverent as they traced your bare form. He cupped the curve of your breast with a featherlight touch, his claws grazing your skin before sliding down to rest at your navel. The intensity of his gaze made you feel both vulnerable and cherished, and your heart ached at the dichotomy between his tenderness and the sharp edge of danger he exuded.Â
âSuch beauty,â he murmured, his voice a low rumble, filled with awe and longing. âHow I must have adored youâŚah, How I adore you even now...â His words trailed off, his lips returning to claim yours in a kiss that was soft, searching, and impossibly bittersweet.Â
You stifled a moan, the sound barely escaping your lips as your heels dug into the mattress. Heat coiled low in your belly, but a nagging thought held you in place. If this truly was Alastor, you knew how much he relished control. Surely, heâd expect you to stay still, waiting for his next command.Â
âDoes this form disgust you, cher?â Alâs voice sliced through your thoughts, low and rich, dripping with desire.Â
His words startled you, and for a moment, you were lost in the depths of his crimson gaze. Disgust? The notion was absurd. If anything, this form was fascinatingâintoxicating. Your mind had already accepted that this demon was, in essence, Alastor, and now you couldnât help but marvel at him. The fiery red of his hair spoke of passion, his sharp smile held a mischievous allure, and those ruby-like eyes gleamed with a predatory hunger.Â
âN-no,â you stammered, heat rising to your cheeks. âI-I just know you like to take control⌠I didnât want to upset you or make you stop.âÂ
His ministrations paused, his claws resting against your bare hips, sending shivers racing along your skin. The top of your dress hung open, exposing your brasserie, while the fabric was bunched around your hips, leaving you vulnerable beneath his touch. He hovered, his knees pressing close to the apex of your thighs, radiating heat and tension.Â
âWhat is it you wanted to ask me, cher?â Al inquired, his voice soft yet commanding, drawing you into the moment. âMy present self wonât hear a thing. This might be your only chance to know.âÂ
The weight of his words settled heavily on your chest. Youâd heard countless tales of how meddling with knowledge of the future often led to ruin. But this wasnât about destiny or fateâthis was about Alastor, the man whose stoic mask never faltered, whose true heart always remained hidden behind an impenetrable wall.Â
You took a shaky breath, your voice barely above a whisper. âDo you⌠love me? In the future?âÂ
The question hung in the air, fragile and trembling, as your cheeks burned with embarrassment. You dared to meet his gaze, bracing yourself for his response.Â
Al tilted his head, his ear-like tufts flopping to one side, his crimson eyes narrowing with an unreadable glint. Then, with a soft chuckle, he countered, âDo you love me now?âÂ
The breath hitched in your throat, but you forced yourself to nod, summoning every ounce of bravery to seize this fleeting moment of truth. âY-yes,â you confessed, your voice trembling yet resolute. âI⌠I do.âÂ
For a heartbeat, silence enveloped the room, thick and heavy with unspoken emotion. Then, Alâs expression softened, his grin shifting into something that resembled bittersweet longing.Â
âThere isnât a single day I havenât thought of you while in Hell, cher,â he murmured, his voice rich with a reverence that sent your heart spiralling. His claws traced a slow, deliberate path along the edges of your underwear, the sensation both thrilling and overwhelming.Â
âNot a single day,â he whispered, his words a tender confession as he gently peeled the fabric away. His touch, so soft yet searing, seemed to convey every unspoken emotion, each one wrapping around you like a vice, leaving you breathless and yearning.Â
You werenât sure why the tears came, hot and relentless, welling in your eyes until they spilled over. A sudden ache bloomed in your chest, overwhelming and raw. Without thinking, your trembling hands flew to cover your lips, muffling a quiet sob. âIâm sorry,â you whispered shakily. âI... I didnât mean to cry.âÂ
The words felt inadequate, your voice small beneath the weight of the moment. You werenât even certain why you were apologizingâperhaps because youâd never heard him like this before. Alastorâs voice, always sharp and full of confidence, now carried a vulnerability so deep it left you breathless. That softness, that tinge of hurt, was foreign and startling, and it wrapped around your heart, squeezing until it ached for him.Â
âShh,â Al soothed, his voice low and caring as he leaned in to kiss away your tears, each press of his lips feather-light and reverent. âThereâs no need for apologies, cher. Just let me...stay with you.âÂ
His words were a promise, spoken with a quiet urgency that made your breath hitch. His claws slid beneath the lace of your bra, cupping your breast with a surprisingly warm touch, even gentle. His fingers splayed across your skin, firm yet careful, as though he feared breaking you.Â
A soft sound escaped you when you felt the faint tug of a zipper being undone. His movements were unhurried, deliberate, and when he pressed the heated length of himself against your core, you inhaled sharply, your back arching ever so slightly. His pace was slow, almost excruciating, as he guided himself inside, inch by inch, allowing you to feel the stretch, the fullness, the raw intimacy of the act.Â
âAh,â you exhaled, a breathless moan slipping from your lips as he continued, filling you completely. The pleasure was deep and consuming, his every movement precise, yet tender in a way that left you trembling beneath him.Â
A sudden snap echoed in the room, and Alastorâthe present Alastorâgasped loudly, finally free of the shadows that had silenced him. âYou bastard,â he snarled at his future self, his voice hoarse from restraint. âYou absoluteââÂ
âThis is how you treat her,â Al murmured with a grin, his tone tinged with amusement, though his attention never wavered from you. He shifted his hips, filling you to the hilt, and a soft cry of pleasure tumbled from your lips, mingling with a moan that seemed to echo in the dimly lit room.Â
He groaned above you, the sound rich and guttural, his breath hot against your skin as he nuzzled against the crook of your neck. Each movement made you keenly aware of him, the way he stretched and filled you, the way his body seemed to fit yours so perfectly. His claws brushed a strand of hair from your face, tucking it gently behind your ear as he whispered, âOh, look at you, my cher. Look how beautifully you take me.âÂ
This was unlike anything youâd ever experienced with Alastor before. It wasnât rough or commanding, nor was it tinged with the sharp edges of teasing and denial. This was differentâsoft, intimate, and achingly...gentle. It was as though, for the first time, you werenât simply giving yourself to him; you were sharing something mutual, something sacred.Â
âWrap those lovely legs around me, cher,â Al murmured, his voice low and intoxicating. You obeyed without hesitation, curling your legs around his waist and pulling him even closer. The sensation was overwhelming, his movements sending waves of pleasure that left you gasping, clutching at his jacket as if it were the only thing grounding you.Â
He captured your lips in a kiss, his tongue brushing against yours in a dance as he swallowed every moan and whimper that escaped you. The intensity built rapidly, pleasure coiling tightly in your core until you felt as though you might shatter from it.Â
âIâm sorry,â you gasped against his lips, the words barely audible. âIâm so close, I donât think I can hold back.âÂ
Your fingers curled tighter around his jacket, clutching it desperately as you tried to hold on, to prolong the moment just a little longer. But the pleasure was relentless, building higher and higher, until it consumed every thought, every sensation, leaving only himâonly this.
Al chuckled warmly, a sound rich and velvety, like dark chocolate melting against your ears. It carried a hint of mischief, yet something darker lingered beneath it. âSee this?â His voice was smooth, teasing as he turned to face Alastor.Â
Your gaze followed, and a rush of heat flooded your cheeks as your eyes landed on the unmistakable bulge pressing against the front of Alastor's pants.Â
Alastorâs lips were pressed into a thin, trembling line, his expression a storm of rage and humiliation. His dark eyes burned with fury, darting between you and his future self. âJust get it done and over with,â he growled, his voice taut with barely contained anger. He thrashed against the shadowy tendrils that restrained him, but they held him fast.Â
âOh, but we have all night,â Al sang, his voice almost melodic, a sinister contrast to the tension in the room. âTell me, how many times have you robbed her of her pleasure?âÂ
Before you could process his words, Al shifted your position with a surprising ease. You found yourself facing Alastor, your back pressed flush against Alâs chest, your legs spread wide and entirely exposed. Heat flared across your skin, searing with a mix of embarrassment and arousal.Â
âSee this?â Al murmured, his voice low as his fingers gently guided your chin, tilting your face toward Alastor. Your heart pounded, your breath hitching as Alâs grip anchored you in place.Â
You gasped as he entered you again, deep and relentless, stealing your breath with every thrust. âOhâoh, A-Al,â you cried, trembling against his unyielding hold.Â
Al grunted softly, his lips curling into a smile. âLook at her,â he urged, his voice thick with desire. âSee how beautiful she is, wrought with pleasure.â He thrust into you harder, the lewd, wet sounds of your joining filling the space.Â
Alastorâs expression flickeredâanger, something unreadable, then averted eyes. He bit his lip harshly, a deep flush creeping up his neck, betraying his growing frustration.Â
âYouâre close, cher,â Al whispered against the shell of your ear, his breath hot and tantalizing. âI can feel itâthe way you clench around me, so tight, so perfect.âÂ
He was right. The tension coiled within you, sharp and demanding, pulling you toward the edge.Â
You tried to fight it, to hold back, but it was futile. A tidal wave of ecstasy crashed over you, tearing a cry from your lips as your body trembled with the force of your climax. Alâs hands guided you through it, his movements unrelenting as he drew out every last shiver and quake of pleasure.Â
As the haze of your release began to fade, your breath came in ragged gasps. Al held your face gently, his thumb brushing your flushed cheek. Your eyes flicked to Alastor, catching the way his hips moved almost imperceptibly, his lips parted, panting slightly as his gaze fixated on you. His anger seemed momentarily forgotten, replaced by something darker, something needy.Â
âHow many times have you robbed her of this?â Alâs voice was soft, but his words cut sharply. He kissed your cheek, his cock still nestled deep within you. âShall I right your wrongs? For every pleasure you denied her, Iâll give her double.â His chuckle was light, teasing, and yet his tone carried a promise of endless indulgence.Â
Your body trembled at the thought, your mind spinning. Could you even withstand more? The lingering pulse of your release still coursed through you, leaving you breathless and yearning.Â
âShut up,â Alastor spat, his voice thick with venom. âAre you done yet? How much more of this absurdity must I endure?â He turned his head sharply, his expression a mask of disgust, but there was something unspoken in his eyesâa flicker of hurt that struck a chord within you.Â
It shouldnât have stung, but it did.Â
âTypical,â Alastor sneered, his anger boiling over. His lips curled into a cruel grin. âI always knew youâd open your legs forââÂ
Before he could finish, a shadow tendril coiled around his throat, cutting him off mid-sentence. His words dissolved into a strangled gasp as his body stiffened.Â
âAlastor!â you cried out, panic flaring as you instinctively tried to move toward him.Â
But Al pulled you back against his chest, his arms locking around you. âDonât fret, cher,â he said smoothly, snapping his fingers. The tendrils vanished instantly, and Alastor collapsed to the ground, coughing and gasping for air.Â
You watched as he rolled onto his side, spittle dripping from his lips as he sucked in desperate gulps of air. Your chest ached at the sight of him, weakened and furious all at once, but before you could speak, Alâs lips brushed your temple, his voice soft and unnervingly gentle.Â
âSome wounds, cher,â he murmured, âare better left to fester.âÂ
Alâs hips began to move again, a slow and deliberate grind that sent jolts of sensation through your overstimulated body. You bit your lip, trying in vain to stifle the shameful moans that spilled from your throat. Every inch of him seemed to ignite a fire within you.
âDonât ever,â Al murmured, his voice dropping into a cold, cutting tone that sent a shiver racing down your spine, âdisrespect my woman like that.âÂ
The words were like a proclamation, and before you could process them, his hand tightened around your breast, his movements becoming forceful and unrelenting. His hips snapped against yours, filling the room with the sound of skin meeting skin, each thrust pushing you closer to another crescendo of pleasure.Â
Alâs lips found your neck, searing hot kisses trailing along your sensitive skin before his hand guided your face to meet his. He claimed your lips with a ferocity that left you breathless, his tongue exploring you in a way that felt both possessive and intimate, tracing your teeth and stroking the inside of your cheek as though savouring every part of you.Â
Your body was still trembling from the aftershocks of your previous release, hypersensitive to every movement. Yet, the way Al continued to thrust into you, his pace calculated but demanding, stirred another wave of pleasure rising too fast for you to suppress.Â
You moaned unabashedly, your head tipping back as you tried to keep your legs open despite the overwhelming sensations. Alâs kisses turned savage, his lips and tongue trailing down to taste your collarbone and the curve of your shoulder. Before long, your vision blurred, and your body arched into his. Your walls clenched around him, gripping tightly as your second orgasm ripped through you like a tidal wave.Â
You cried out, your voice breaking as pleasure coursed through your veins. Every nerve in your body seemed to light up, leaving you trembling and weak. Your muscles spasmed around him, your breath hitching with every aftershock as you slowly slumped against his chest, utterly spent.Â
âY-your woman?â Alastorâs voice broke the spell, sharp and incredulous. He coughed, clearing his throat before finally finding his footing and standing upright.Â
âLast I checked,â he continued, his tone rising with indignation, âshe wasnât even in Hell with youâwith us!â His hand went to his neck, rubbing the tender skin where the shadow tendrils had choked him moments before. His darkened eyes narrowed, and he took a step closer, his voice brimming with outrage. âYouâre insane.âÂ
Before you could react, Alastor reached for your wrist, his grip firm but not painful. He tugged you forward, your weakened body pulled unceremoniously into his arms. Your head fell against his chest, and you felt the warmth of him seep into your skin. His hand slid possessively to your hip, grounding you as he glared at his future self.Â
Al leaned back, a picture of ease and command, lounging as though he were a king on a throne. He regarded the two of you with a smirk, a glint of amusement in his ruby eyes.Â
âSheâŚâ Alastor began, but his voice faltered. His grip on your wrist loosened until his fingers slid away entirely. His gaze dropped, his anger giving way to something quieter, something aching. âShe lives in an entirely different world than us. Than me.âÂ
Your chest tightened, the weight of his words settling heavily over you.Â
You turned slowly, your eyes lifting to meet Alastorâs. This was the man you had fallen forâthe one you had dreamed of, the one whose guarded heart you had hoped to reach. His expression struggled to wear his usual impassive mask, yet, his jaw tense and there was something raw in his eyes, something he didnât dare speak aloud.Â
The air between you hung thick with unspoken words. And as you looked into his face, you realized just how fragile this moment truly was.Â
Alastorâs fingers brushed a strand of hair back from your face, the motion hauntingly familiar to the one his future self had performed. His touch was gentle as he tucked the strand behind your ear. His eyes met yours, and for a fleeting moment, you thought you saw something vulnerable flicker thereâonly for it to vanish beneath his ever-present smile.Â
âYou remember, donât you, dear?â His voice was smooth, almost casual, but there was an edge to it, like the sharp bite of a slap. âWhat we have, what we are... itâs just forââ he paused, his gaze holding yours for a fraction too long before finishing, âfun.âÂ
Fun.Â
The word echoed in your mind, hollow and cold. All the hope that had swelled within you moments earlier, kindled by Alâs words, dissipated instantly.Â
Fun.Â
It was what you and Alastor had agreed upon. A fleeting arrangement, a temporary indulgence in each otherâs company, meant to burn bright and brief before the inevitable end. It was never supposed to be more. Never meant to last.Â
Fun.Â
That was the word that cut through you, sharper than any blade. You had known this from the start, hadnât you? Once your father found the perfect match for you, you would disappear from Alastorâs life forever. That had been the unspoken agreement. Yet somewhere along the way, the lines blurred, and your heart betrayed you.Â
You glanced toward Alâthe demon who claimed to be Alastorâs future self. His words, his touches, his teasing... was it all a game? A cruel trick to see how far he could bend you, how much hope he could ignite only to snuff it out?Â
Your awareness sharpened as embarrassment crept over you, your vulnerable state of undress now unbearable. Your arms instinctively crossed over yourself, clutching at your dress as you tried to cover the skin that felt too exposed, too raw.Â
The dress you had painstakingly chosen for this evening, carefully picked with Alastor in mind, now hung loosely, undone and crumpled. Your hair, once meticulously brushed and curled, was now a chaotic mess. You had spent hours perfecting your makeup, only for the tears streaking your face to smear it into ruin.Â
You looked like a fool.Â
The urge to flee surged within you. You couldnât bear to stay here, not like this. But even as the thought crossed your mind, another, more painful realization followedâif you left, what would happen to the deal? Your heart ached at the cruel irony. Even now, after everything, you still cared about him. About what he wanted. About fulfilling your part of the bargain.Â
For him.Â
Tears welled up in your eyes again, spilling over despite your best efforts to contain them. You forced yourself to look up, but not at Al. Instead, your gaze found Alastorâthe man you had fallen for despite all the odds, despite his impenetrable walls, despite knowing he would never truly be yours.Â
âH-how much longer,â you began, your voice trembling as you struggled to hold back the tears, âmust I satisfy the demon, Alasââ Your voice faltered, and you lowered your head, your next word barely above a whisper. âS-sir?âÂ
For a long moment, Alastor said nothing. His face was unreadable, his whisky brown eyes scanning your dishevelled appearance with an intensity that made your breath hitch. You wanted to disappear under his gaze, ashamed of the image you must have presented to him now.Â
But then, to your surprise, he moved closer. Slowly, deliberately, he reached out, his long fingers brushing against your trembling hands. Without a word, he began to button your dress. One button at a time, his movements were delicate, almost reverent.Â
There was no teasing in his touch, no mockery in his expression. Just a quiet, unexpected gentleness.Â
His lashes fluttered briefly against his cheeks, soft and fragile behind his round glasses. When he spoke, his voice was low and filled with quiet resolve. âYou should wait outside, dear,â he whispered, his words carrying the faintest tremor of tenderness. âAt least let me take you home. It wouldnât do to have a lady out this late.âÂ
Moments like this, where he allowed a sliver of gentleness to break through his sharp edges, made your heart both race and ache. You clung to the sound of his voice, the kindness laced within it, even as uncertainty churned in your chest.Â
âWhat about the demonââ you began, the question heavy with fear and concern.Â
He silenced you with a single, sharp look. His frown slowly curled into a grin, that eerily familiar expression that always danced between charming and menacing. âNo need to worry about that, dear,â he said lightly, though his tone darkened as he shifted his gaze to the demon. âUnless the demon wishes to force his cherââ he spat the title like venom, his disdain palpable ââto pleasure him.âÂ
The air grew taut, charged with a dangerous energy. The red devil, Alâs supposed future self, froze for a moment, his grin tightening as his eyes narrowed. It felt as though the room itself bristled with his restrained fury. Then, almost too casually, he smoothed a hand over his pants, fixing himself, preened his dishevelled hair, and adjusted his monocle with precision.Â
âThat would mean our contract is null and void,â the demon drawled, his words slow and deliberate. He tilted his head slightly, studying Alastor with a smirk that didnât reach his eyes.Â
âThatâs fine,â Alastor replied evenly, his voice firm, yet calm. Without waiting for a response, he gently but firmly pushed you toward the door. âGo. Wait for me outside.âÂ
You hesitated, torn between obedience and the instinct to stay by his side. Your eyes flicked between Alastor and the demon, the two of them locked in a silent, smouldering battle of wills. Finally, with a reluctant nod, you turned to leave, your steps faltering but resolute.Â
You had barely taken three steps when the devilâs voice stopped you, his words drifting through the tense air like smoke.Â
âCher?âÂ
Your shoulders jumped up, muscles stiff with unease as you turned back toward him. The sight of his inky, unnatural tendrils from before lingered in your memory, a haunting reminder of how effortlessly he could hurtâor kill.
The devilâs grin had frozen in place, his sharp eyes scanning your face, your body, as though searching for something he couldnât find. Slowly, his expression shifted. His two tufts of hair drooped, softening against his head, and for a fleeting moment, his imposing presence seemed almost weak, vulnerable.Â
âI hope you have a lovely night, my darling,â he said, his voice quieter now, tinged with something that almost sounded like sorrow. âMa chère,â he murmured, tilting his head as if bidding farewell to something precious.Â
Before you could muster a response, Alastorâs figure stepped between you and the demon. His back was to you, but his presence was unyielding, protective. Without turning fully, he spoke firmly, âGo. Donât make me repeat myself.âÂ
Your heart felt heavy, your mind a whirlwind of thoughts as you finally obeyed. With trembling steps, you walked out of the office, leaving the two behind without daring to glance back.Â
Now came the hardest part.Â
Waiting.Â
Standing outside, the minutes dragged on, each one longer than the last. Your thoughts spiralled, dread filling the space left by the closed door. Would it be Alastor who emerged, or the devil? Or worseâwould the door open to reveal Alastor lifeless on the floor?Â
Clasping your hands tightly, you sank to your knees on the cold ground, closing your eyes as tears pricked your lashes. You prayed, your whispered words trembling as they left your lips. You begged forgiveness from a merciful God for allowing a demon to touch your body, for the sins you had committed, and for the sin you were willing to bear if it meant Alastor would emerge unharmed.Â
The only thing you wanted now was for him to be safe. Â
Safe, and with you once more.Â
The moment the door clicked shut, Alastor turned his glare on the devil who dared call himself his future. âFor a devil, you are quiteâŚâ he sneered, his sharp teeth glinting, âpathetic.âÂ
His future self barely flinched, idly inspecting his cuticles as though the insult was nothing more than a passing breeze. âHmm,â he hummed thoughtfully, raising a brow without lifting his gaze. âI must say, itâs rather odd to look back and see just how foolish I once was.âÂ
Alastorâs jaw tightened, a vein visibly pulsing at his temple. âYou mean to tell me that youâve clawed your way to becoming an Overlordâone of the highest ranks in Hell, no lessâand yet, here you are, chasing after some privileged little girâ"Â
âThat woman,â his future self interrupted coldly, rising to his full height. His red eyes blazed with a dangerous light, casting an oppressive shadow across the room. âShe is myâno, ourâlove.âÂ
Alastor scoffed, his disgust palpable. âLove? What rot.â He folded his arms tightly, his long fingers curling into his sleeves as though restraining himself. âI donât have the time, nor the desire, for such sentimentality. There are far grander things to pursue, far more thrilling paths to follow.â His grin widened, jagged and bloodthirsty. âAnd Iâve never been one to let anyone dull the taste of the hunt.âÂ
The future Alastor chuckled low, his voice dipping into something almost pitying. âAh, yes. Look at you,â he mused, his tone softer now, though no less unsettling. âSo young, so single-minded, soâŚâ His eyes flickered with something indecipherable. â...untouched by the weight of eternity.âÂ
He turned then, pacing with a languid grace, his shadow stretching and twisting unnaturally as he moved. âEternity, you see, changes a man,â he continued, his voice almost wistful. âIt sinks its claws into your mind, warping it, forcing you to reminisce on the past whether you want to or not.âÂ
Alastor said nothing, his body rigid and his gaze locked on the man pacing before him. Theatrics, he thought with a sneer. It seemed Hell had done nothing but make him more insufferable.Â
The future him paused, his back to him now, his shoulders rising and falling with a quiet, steady breath. âSheâcherâloved us,â he said softly, the words slipping out like a confession he hadnât meant to make. When he turned, his expression was unreadable, but his crimson eyes burned. âShe stood by us even when she knew. Even after learning our delightful little secret.âÂ
Alastorâs stomach twisted, though he couldnât quite say why. He forced his expression to remain unchanged, his grin fixed in place like a mask heâd long since perfected.Â
The future him tilted his head, studying him with something that felt far too intimate, as though he could see the cracks beneath the surface. âShe looked me in the eyes,â he murmured, his voice softening with the memory, âand she asked,âCan I stay with you?ââÂ
Suddenly, he barked out a laugh, loud and bitter, throwing his head back as his hand swept over his face. âCan you believe it? Standing there, dripping in another manâs blood, and she had the gall to ask me if she could stay with me?âÂ
His laughter died into something quieter, darker. When he looked back at Alastor, his manic grin was gone, replaced by an expression that seemed caught between amusement and sorrow. âHow utterly, ridiculously foolish of her,â he said, his voice laced with something tender.Â
Alastorâs mask of indifference faltered for just a moment, his mind racing, though his lips curved back into place as quickly as it had fallen. He couldnât let this manâthis thingâsee any weakness. But the words lingered, echoing in the silence that followed.Â
"Sounds like she stays with me for quite a while," Alastor murmured, his voice low and contemplative. The realization settled into him with a quiet sort of confidence. If the girl remained enamoured with him for an extended period, there would be no need for his future self's assistance. She could keep persuading her father to funnel money into his radio broadcasts.Â
He didn't need this thing anymore.
His future self chuckled softly, the sound dark and humorless. âOh, she does stay with you. And you, in all your stubbornness, deny your feelings for her. Even after your death.â A wry smile curved at his lips, tinged with something far heavier than amusement. âYou let her marry another man. You didnât even stop her wedding.âÂ
âI had no right to,â Alastor replied flatly, though his jaw tightened imperceptibly.Â
âYou didnât kill her husband when he started beating her.âÂ
âIt was no longer my business,â Alastor said through gritted teeth, his fingers curling into tight fists. âWhat happens between a man and a woman bound by marriage is their affair.âÂ
The words barely left his mouth before a horrible, grating white noise filled the room. It clawed at his ears, drowning out his thoughts. He staggered slightly, looking up just in time to see his future self begin to unravel.Â
His once-dapper figure twisted grotesquely, hair growing shaggy and wild, teeth sharpening into jagged yellow points that glowed unnaturally. His eyes warped, pupils flickering like shifting radio dials.Â
âShe was hurting,â the figure hissed, his voice a cacophony of static and rage. âAnd you did nothing to protect her!âÂ
Dark, gnarled antlers sprouted from his head, resembling the twisted, lifeless branches of a dead tree. His elongated form loomed over Alastor, arms stretching unnaturally as if to choke him, though he stopped just short.Â
âShe died,â the future self spat, his voice fractured and trembling with fury. âBeaten to death by that pathetic excuse of a husband. You could have saved her! You should have saved her!â He paused, his grinning mask fracturing into countless shards. "I should have saved her. I should have helped her."  His voice became a manic chant, each repetition more unhinged than the last. âHelp her⌠help herâŚÂ help her!âÂ
Alastor took several measured steps back, his disgust plain on his face. His eyes burned with disdain as he straightened his posture. âThat girl means nothing to me,â he sneered. âSheâs just a means to an end. I will never become you.âÂ
The creature froze mid-motion, his grotesque form suddenly still. His eyes widened, as if struck by an unseen force, before his body began to shrink and contort, growing smaller and smaller.Â
âOh,â he whispered softly, his voice hollow and distant. As his monstrous visage faded, he seemed more man than demon, his expression frozen in something between grief and longing. âShe died before you...before me. She was in Hell firstâŚâ His gaze fell to the floor, searching for something unseen. âIf Iâd died first, I could have protected herâŚfrom the extermination... If weâd died togetherâŚâ His voice faltered, trailing off as he stared vacantly at the ground.Â
The future selfâs eyes widened in a sudden, dawning realization as his body began to dissolve completely. His time was up.Â
The future version of himself turned his face sharply toward Alastor, his crimson eyes wide and frenzied, his grin stretching impossibly as if carved into his face. âHelp her, help her, help her,â he chanted, his voice trembling with mania and desperation. Each repetition was a dagger, sharp and insistent, stabbing at the silence between them. âYouâll regret it. YouâllââÂ
But before the final word left his lips, his form unravelled completely. He vanished like smoke caught in the wind, leaving behind nothing but the faint, chilling echo of his last plea.Â
Alastor stood frozen, staring at the empty space where his future self had been. The chair that had grotesquely morphed into a bed returned to its mundane, wooden form with a soft creak. The room fell still, save for the faint metallic tang of blood in the air, remnants of the summoning ritual still staining the floor.Â
A low, derisive laugh escaped him, dry and humorless. It reverberated in the quiet room, a hollow sound that dissipated as quickly as it came. âRidiculous,â he muttered under his breath, straightening his tie with deliberate care. âUtterly ridiculous.âÂ
There were hundreds, thousands of people suffering in the world. People beaten, broken, and killed every day. Why should one personâs pain matter more than the rest? His muddy brown eyes flicked to the door, the barrier between him and you. He could feel your presence on the other side, waiting.Â
Always waiting.Â
And yet...Â
He shook the thought away, his lips pressing into a tight line. You were nothing but a means to an end. A convenient piece in his grand design.Â
Nothing more.Â
Nothing less.Â
Alastor inhaled deeply as the oppressive, sulphur-laden air of Hell greeted him. The thick atmosphere clung to his skin, sticky and suffocating, as if the very realm wanted to remind him of where he belonged. He was homeâor rather, back in his territory.Â
He straightened, a flicker of hope igniting within his chest, faint and fragile. Perhaps his younger self had listened. Perhaps the warnings had sunk in, sparing him the endless torment of regret.Â
But as he stood there, he felt itâthe empty, unchanging void where new memories should have been. Nothing was different. Every moment, every sensation of you, was still confined to the past, untouched by the intervention of his other self.Â
His shoulders sank slightly as he pushed open the door to his residence. It groaned on its hinges, a mournful sound that echoed through the dark, cavernous halls. His home was vast yet barren, shadows swallowing the corners of rooms that had long since been abandoned by warmth.Â
There was no trace of you. No scent, no sound, no faint whisper of your laughter to greet him.Â
Oh.Â
A bitter realization settled over him, heavy and unrelenting. He would spend eternity as he always hadâwithout you. Once more. How fitting, he thought, for a sinner like him.Â
He pressed his lips against his trembling fingers, his eyes closing as he forced himself to draw upon the fading memory of your face. The way your eyes lit up with that wide, innocent wonder. The delicate flush of your cheeks that sent his chest tightening in ways heâd never admit aloud.Â
âYou look wonderful today, cher,â he murmured to the silence, his voice soft, almost reverent. Words heâd always thought but never dared to say.Â
âMy, is that gift for me?â His laughter cracked as he spoke to the void. âYou shouldnât have... Truly, Iâll treasure it.âÂ
âDid you do something with your hair?â he asked, his tone warm and practised, though his grin faltered. âIt looks lovely, cher.â He smiled into the empty room, knowing the words would never reach you.Â
Then, his voice fell to a whisper, a confession carried by the air of a hollowed-out life. âAh... I love you, ma chère. I do.â The words tasted bittersweet, aching with all the emotions he had locked away. âI love you,â he said again, softer this time, like a prayer. âStay with me?âÂ
For a fleeting moment, he let himself imagine the impossible. You, smiling that radiant smile that warmed his cold heart. Your arms wrapping around him tightly as you whispered a resounding yes.Â
A life he would never know.Â
A life he had willingly forfeited.Â
Now, all that stretched before him was an eternity without you.Â
An eternity of silence.Â

He Wants to Watch
Kinktober Prompt: Doggy Style
Relationship: Sam Winchester x f!Reader, Dean
Content: Explicit sexual scenes, rough sex, dirty talk, creampie, unprotected sex, (lowkey) breeding kink, degrading, voyeurism/exhibitionism, Sam is a little greedy
Summary: It's time for round two, and the younger Winchester hasn't had his fill. Dean is generous enough to let Sammy have a turn, but not without watching exactly how his brother pleases his girl.
** Guessing Game is part 1 - For full context, and more smut, go ahead and read it! I apologize that this is shorter than usual, Iâm working on some bigger pieces, and transferring everything to AO3!
Thirty minutes have passed since you collapsed into Dean's mattress, totally sated and limp from pleasure. The two brothers lay on either side of your lax form, caressing your skin with peppered kisses along the way.
Sam locks eyes with his brother, a devilishly curious look glinting within them. Dean's look darkens - a silent agreement.
"How you feeling, sweetheart?" asks Dean, tucking loose hairs away from your cheeks. During the last round, you'd built up a decent sweat that stuck your hair around your temples.
You shift your legs, assessing your soreness. To your surprise, it's not as intense as you'd thought it would be - and paired with the careful massage from the brothers, your recovery time was hurried.
"I'm wonderful," you sigh. Movement comes from behind and a thick warmth presses against your ass.
Sam snakes his arms around your middle and tugs you toward him, away from Dean. There isn't a hint of jealousy on your boyfriend's features. In fact, it seems like he could actually be enjoying this. Sam grips gently at your jaw and cranes your head to face him. That same overwhelming darkness still pools in his eyes; it was a type of shadow that could melt your insides before they're ravaged again.
The blackness of Sam's eyes is not an invitation, or a flirtation. No..
Itâs a warning.
Not a word is said as Sam hitches your leg up. You're splayed wide on your side, now with your messy pussy in full view for the brothers. Dean's gaze settles on your displayed cunt, and its proximity to Sam's cock, throbbing and leaking from your past round.
Minutes before, Sam demanded to have you to himself, his words less of a request than a warning. Watching his brother fuck you thoroughly, all the while flaunting what he couldn't have, sent a rush of jealousy through Sam. His cock ached for your dripping cunt - longing to bury itself inside of your walls. It was his right to do so, just as much as his brother.
Sam grips the base of his cock and guides it between your thighs, lining his shaft between your slick folds. He gives a few steady thrusts to lead the head of his cock across your clit, still sensitive from earlier. You whine, looking to Dean.
Darkened eyes greet you. Dean wears a wide, pleased smile on his face, as if watching his brother fuck his own girlfriend could be a source of pride.
"Sammy wants his turn."
A moan escapes you when Samâs cock brushes against your clit. He slides through your slick folds with a sharp gasp - your warmth kisses the sensitive head, tensing his back from the brush of pleasure. You look to Dean with a confused expression, but your furrowed brows relax when Samâs cock fixes at your wet hole, eager for his own opportunity.
Your hips relax at his touch and allow Sam to ease his way inside. Sam enters you with a hiss through his teeth. Warmth envelops his cock with every inch, stretching you slowly.
You cry out, whipping your head to look at Sam as he pushes himself inside. His face is contorted in ecstasy, and he lets out a low moan when you clench down onto his length. Itâs Deanâs voice that helps encourage you to take more of his brother.
âThere you go, baby, just relax. Let Sammy take care of you,â he murmurs, lowering his hand to his groin, taking hold of his own length, pumping himself slowly.
Sam, to his credit, is a bit more endowed than your boyfriend, and he feels absolutely glorious. He has more length to stretch you out, as opposed to Deanâs gift of girth. Regardless, by the time heâs bottomed out, youâre satisfyingly full, mewling into the sheets. He needs to move. You need to feel him.
You buck your hips onto his cock, sinking him into your fluttering walls. A low groan escapes from his chest, thrumming against your back.
âFuuuck, sheâs tight,â he moans, throwing his head against your shoulder.
Dean hums in agreement, still stroking himself next to you. His eyes rove over your form - shaking, moaning, and clenching around Samâs dick.
After a moment, your slick coats Samâs length enough to let him in fully, bottoming out in your pussy with a soft groan.
You steady your breathing. You can feel how nicely your pussy is stretching to his size - heâs in your stomach, your lungs, everywhere. Heâs far bigger than how he felt down your throat. Apparently your mouth can accommodate him perfectly, but your tight cunt is another matter.
He moves, ever so slightly, dragging his heavy cock through your tight walls to the tip. Sam plunges in with earnest. You cry out at the deeper strike.
Samâs hand whips around your front to your throat, placing a finger on either side of your windpipe, squeezing down. Dullness throbs through your head as you struggle for a proper breath. His hand eases itâs grip, and the blood rushes heavily back through your head, gifting you a dull ache in your temples, and a thundering rush of adrenaline.
âS-Sam, faster, please,â you whisper. He groans in response, snapping his hips into yours.
The pace becomes relentless. Sam takes no time easing you into it like his brother does - he takes your request and sprints ahead with it, delivering blow after blow to your ravaged pussy.
Dean watches his brotherâs cock work itself inside of your entrance, glossy when it leaves with your slick.
âRougher, Sam.â
Deanâs command shudders through him, and Sam reaches for your waist, shoving you onto your stomach. From this angle surely he can strike deeper. Harder.
With a grunt, Sam hauls your hips upward, slipping from your pussy and giving you a cold kiss of the air. A whimper escapes you, pleading with him to return his heat.
You squirm to brace yourself on your elbows. A warmth prods at your stretched hole - Samâs cock teases your needy pussy with the thick head of his length. The silence in the room is not one of awkwardness; instead, it happens to add a new erotic element of being watched. Observed by Dean.
Craning your head you can see Deanâs lazy smile as he fucks his hand. His eyes are glued to your expressions, waiting anxiously for it to warp as Sam enters you again.
He does so in one swift thrust. Youâre thrust into the sheets again, falling limp into the mattress with the overwhelming pleasure.
Samâs name slurs around your tongue. Whether it was in protest or pleading, you couldnât tell. The force of his snapping hips set your nerves on high alert, every inch of you surges as he moves. Your name tumbles past his lips, drawn out like a song. His voice has your back arching - with the deep rumble of the utterance, like a prayer and curse all in one.
His hips sharply snap against your ass. All cohesive thought vanishes as his cock pounds against your cervix, sending a full throb through your cunt. If you werenât sore with Dean from before, surely youâd have trouble moving now.
âLetting me use you right after my brother,â Sam growls, âyouâre such a dirty slut.â
The abrasive words ignite you, leaving you to moan softly into the blanket.
âAnd Iâd bet you want my cum, too, huh?â his voice is laced with venom, as filthy as your body feels, âI saw how badly you wanted Deanâs, I could tell you wanted more. Just a dumb cumslut, arenât you?â
You manage a nod. Samâs fingers card through your hair and gain purchase, jerking your head back, angling you to look at him. He braces himself into a kneel and crouches over you, angling himself to thrust deeper, crashing his cock into your sweet spot.
Samâs voice brushes over your ear amidst the wet slaps of his balls hitting your drenched cunt. Each strike lands on your swollen clit, with small spurts of pleasure following behind.
âDean,â he begins. Sam tilts his head to his brother, now more fervently pleasuring himself. His strokes are rougher with each passing second. Darkness blows out Samâs eyes as he asks, âCan I finish inside of her?â
Deanâs brows twitch with annoyance, but his expression shifts. He gives a simple nod.
Go ahead.
âOh, fuck, yes,â he groans. âDonât worry, baby, Iâll give you plenty.â
You can feel Samâs smile against your ear before me takes the lobe between his teeth. He talks lowly to drive himself closer. While his brother may take his time to please you, itâs not Samâs job to prioritize that. This is his once chance, and heâs not patient under the pressure.
âPretty little cum dumpster,â his words strain, âTwo brothers in the same night - fucking filthy. Youâre one depraved bitch.â
The words strain the tightness welling in your abdomen. Youâre about the snap, but based on Samâs faltering thrusts, he may beat you to it.
âPlease-â you choke.
âQuiet,â he orders, âyou take what I give you, when I give it to you.â
Having no control in it doesnât upset you in the slightest. After all, you were the girl turned whore when you decided to fuck your boyfriends brother.
His jutting hips lose their rhythm as his orgasm approaches. Sam hisses at the tension in his abdomen before his release spills into your abused cunt, coating your walls with white.
âShiiit,â he exhales. Sam unsheathes from your used hole, staring pridefully at his cum leaking from your pulsing pussy. It flows downward, covering your gleaming folds and stiff clit in a white sheer. Underneath him, you whine into the bed, clenching your cunt onto nothing, keeping his seed inside.
You pry your eyes open to look for Dean. You find him with his hips slacked and cock leaking into his hand. His own cum stains his stomach in a white gloss. He flutters his eyes closed, completely sated.
Sam helps ease your hips back down onto the bed; he steps away after muttering something about âcleaning upâ. A moment later he returns with a lukewarm washcloth, tending to your messiest areas, and then working on himself.
He lounges on the bed to your side. You pant softly to come down from the high. Samâs cum still seeps between your slick folds, reminding you of the filthy deed you two did.
Perhaps out of respect for Dean, Sam doesnât kiss you afterward. His comfort to you is to stroke a hand through your hair idly as Dean recovers. Your boyfriend grumbles your name before reaching for you.
You give him a once-over, seeing as he hasnât cleaned up his own âaftermathâ. You arch an eyebrow at him.
âClean yourself up, and then weâll talk.â
You hear Samâs breathy laugh from behind. Dean rolls his eyes and reaches for the discarded washcloth, doing as you requested.
Hi yâall, I hope you enjoyed! If you did, it would be a huge support if you reblog! Happy Kinktober!

YAY I'm glad you want to write vamps!! I always welcome more Castlevania Dracula x reader content! feel free to choose the general scenarios, but if you're comfortable writing it I'd love to hear about how he handles being tempted by your blood đ
đđđđđđđđ.
âş ..your taste is like ambrosia, the nectar of the gods. gn reader. â i got carried away with this guys vampires draw out the worst in me LMAO. if this is too intimate and eyebrow raising im sorry i love vampires and their stupid metaphorical actions for romance.
Dracula is ancient. He is old. He has walked the earth for centuries, and has learned to ease his bloodlust. Yes, he is very well-acquainted with the temptations that comes with vampirism, and he does his best to keep his fangs clean, for he is not the man he once was.
It is enticing. The smell that emits from your pretty pulse points, the way your heartbeat echoes and reverberates off of the castle walls drive his bloodlust farther. But he holds back. He will not succumb to his primal instincts. Not yet, at least.
But the day will come. He knows it will, for when your neck flaunts itself through the collar of your clothes he feels his façade slip and his hunger grow.
So the day comes, he holds a hand gingerly and sinks his teeth into your wrist. No, it is not the neck, but he feels like this is more appropriate than biting you in such an intimate place. He would not do anything you did not wish and would take it slowly, which is why his fangs would dip into the supple skin of your wrist; to ease you into the puncturing pain that will become familiar to you.
To Vlad, the act is intimate. He savours it, taking his time to ensure comfort and relish in the taste, smell, and essence. So when the time comes and his fangs graze your neck, he feels your pulse quicken under his lips, and his hand would make its way to the side of your head and softly entangle it in your hair, craning your head to the side for better access. Agonizingly slow his fangs would pierce into your flesh, drinking like a starved dog.
If he could he would stay there for eternity, to bleed you dry because your blood tastes like ambrosia, the food of the gods. He will not succumb to such basic and primal instincts no matter how much he wants to. He will not become more of a monster than he already is. Instead he would drink in the gasps that leave you, the pained hitch in your breath when he punctures your neck. He would not try to soothe you, too drunk on the taste he neglected for so long.
But the way it tastes on his tongue would drive him mad. It would simultaneously ease his bloodlust and drive it, making him want more. Enticing you were, so utterly cruel, but he would not lose himself in your scent. He would not allow it. You would not be a personal blood-bank for him, you are so much more than that.
You are his Achilles heel with your sweet taste. You would make him crumble to his knees just for a taste. He is weak for you, your scent and your smell. He becomes nothing more than a starved man when his fangs puncture your neck and tongue lap up the sweet, sweet nectar that oozes out and down your sweet skin.
#đ¤ MAIN â my writing.#guys this is the closest i will only come to writing smth as intimate as this#vampires control my life#not proofread btw#i wrote this while waiting for thanksgiving dinner đ#dracula x reader#vlad dracula tepes x reader#dracula tepes x reader#vlad tepes x reader#castlevania x reader#vampire x reader#castlevania headcanons#castlevania imagine#vampire imagine#vampire headcanons#idk what else to tag

i can never stop thinking about standing full nelson with zoroâŚ
the feeling of utter weightlessness is intoxicatingâas is the reprieve from control. itâs a rush, allowing your body to be handled entirely by your lover, coaxed to the precipice of pleasure through his strength and adoration.
while itâs inarguably zoroâs favorite position (a precious opportunity to flaunt his physical prowess in a way that leaves you boneless and crying for more), heâs insistent on easing you into it, ever mindful of your limits.
you know when itâs coming with the telltale darkening of his lone eye, the impossible deepening of his thrusts, the restless slide of his calloused fingers across your softness, the gravely hum of his filthy words against your throatâ
yet it happens so suddenly that you have no time to react. he rises to his feet and flips you to face outward before squatting down to lift you up, bulging arms trapping your legs at your chest, wrapping his broad hands around to cradle the back of your head.
when his tip nudges your entrance, you tremble; and when he finally pushes inside, it knocks the breath from your lungs. tears glitter in your eyes as youâre forced to take it allâeverything he gives you, from his fat cock to his unabashed groans to his endless praise:
youâre perfect like this⌠youâre perfect for me⌠thereâs no one but you⌠iâm yours⌠youâre going kinda dumb, baby, butâf-fuckâso am iâŚ
#this is so so sooooo disgustingly self indulgent iâm. ahem. i gotta go now byeeeeeeee#i just think itâs the perfect mix of animal instinct and sappy intimacy!!!!!!!#as is fucking everything with him#also sorry for the repeated line i edited it#â musings#â roronoa zoro#â one piece#zoro x reader

â。𦹠Being with hbk in the 90s âŽ




There were sticky substances like chewing gum, shoe glue, and caramels, but none of them could compare to the intensity with which Shawn clung to you. He wanted to be with you 24/7, every day of the week. Unfortunately, his work schedule and yours didn't allow for that luxury, but when they were together, whether at the company or at his house during his free time, Shawn became your shadowf. He hugged you with a force that left you breathless, needing to inhale the scent of your neck every five seconds. His arms wrapped around you like a warm and protective blanket, and his soft breathing made you feel safe and loved. Although you loved his touch and the sense of security he provided, there were moments when you needed some space for yourself. That's why you sometimes locked the bathroom door. Lol.
His possessiveness was one hundred percent, although not in a toxic way. He wasn't bothered by you wearing short dresses or revealing clothing; in fact, he loved it. He saw you as the most beautiful woman in the world, and his ego soared knowing you were exclusively his. However, there was a corner of his being that harbored jealousy when he saw you near another man. Every time you struck up a casual conversation with a guy, a pang of discomfort invaded him, although he refused to admit it. You possessed a flirtatious and seductive aura, something that had always characterized you, but not something you did intentionally to make him uncomfortable. It was simply part of your essence, something you shared between the two of you. Nevertheless, he couldn't bear the thought of you gazing at another man. That feeling transformed him into a spoiled child, eager to capture your attention, to make you look only at him. His behavior was both amusing and frustrating, but you couldn't help feeling flattered by his devotion.
Every five minutes, his lips whispered 'I love you', regardless of who was nearby to hear it. He had no shame in showing his love for you in public, and he made sure to flaunt you at every opportunity that arose. Whether it was during an interview with the press or a live speech in front of a crowd, he always found a way to mention you and express his admiration for you.
His bad mood was like a storm that passed quickly, as long as it wasn't directed at you. When he got angry about something, whether it was because his fireworks weren't ready on time or because there was a problem with the production, you were the one who could calm him down with ease. A few cuddles and caresses from you were enough to dispel his anger. A single word from you, spoken with love and tenderness, could make his bad mood disappear like magic. But when his anger was directed at you, the situation was completely different. In those moments, you felt like you were navigating a sea of honey, trying to find a way to calm him down without drowning in the process. Usually, he would give you the silent treatment, acting like an immature child. Sometimes, you simply gave up and ignored him, but most of the time, you begged for his displays of affection, eager to see his smile and feel his warmth again.
He wants to devour you every hour, every minute, in every imaginable moment: in the locker room, in the bathroom, under the shower, in the car, in an open field, at the movies, and even with the Kliq members sleeping beside him, when they had to share hotel rooms. The atmosphere was charged with palpable sensuality, and you didn't hold back either. Shawn's chiseled body was a spectacle that left you speechless, causing you to drool liters on the floor. He, with his almost sculptural beauty, moved with a confidence that left you breathless.
âSince day one, he's wanted to marry you.

Hellooo, I'm not sure if my request is allowed since I didn't see your rules when it comes request but feel free to decline!
Could I have a request for Narumi x Female x Hoshina? The two powerful soldiers are dating but then they suddenly fall for the new recruit which is from Hoshina's division and they confessed to her since they felt a connection towards the reader.
The Love Plan - Part 1
A/N: I've only watched the anime, and since Narumi appears only in the last episode, I don't know much about him. However, Iâve read a few things online, so I hope Iâve still managed to capture his character well. He may differ slightly from how heâs portrayed in the official Kaiju No. 8 story, but I hope you still enjoy it and that it meets your expectations. Also, there will be a second part to the story, as Iâve split it into two: the first part focuses on them falling for the reader, and the second part on the reader falling for them.
Synopsis: Hoshina and Narumi have been dating for a while now. Theyâre happy, theyâre in love. But then, you join the Third Division as a new recruit. It doesnât take long for Hoshina to fall for you, so he starts scheming to make his boyfriend fall for you too.
content/warnings: Narumi Gen x fem!reader x Hoshina Soshiro, fluff, 3.005 words
Part 2 Part 3
The battlefield was never where Hoshina Soshiro expected to find love. Yet, somehow, between fierce rivalry and bloodstained victories, he and Gen Narumi had become something more than competitors. What had started as an unspoken challenge between two of the Defense Force's strongest soldiers had evolved into something deeper, something they both cherished despite their constant teasing and clashing personalities.
Their relationship wasn't a secret, though they didn't flaunt it either. A handful of people knewâthe ever-watchful Captain Ashiro, who had witnessed Hoshina's reckless devotion when he rushed to the hospital after a near-fatal Kaiju incident involving the First Division, and Operations Leader Okonogi, who had seen enough to read between the lines. They were a solid team, perfectly balanced in their own chaotic way.
Their free time was spent togetherâgrabbing ice cream after missions, playing video games, or simply napping side by side, recharging their energy for the next fight. Sometimes, they met at each other's bases to train. At first, their sparring sessions drew surprised glancesâno one expected another Captain or Vice-Captain to drop by just for a friendly fight. But soon, it became routine.Â
To put it simply, they were happy. They were in love.
And thenâyou walked in.
Hoshina first saw you during the new recruit assessments. The Division had been expecting a batch of fresh faces, but most of them were just average soldiersâcapable, but nothing special. Then there was you.
From the moment you stepped onto the training field, your presence demanded attention. You carried yourself with quiet confidence, not arrogance, just an unwavering focus that set you apart from the rest. The moment you picked up a blade, moving with effortless precision through the drills, Hoshina found himself watching closely.
"Oi, who's that?" he asked one of his subordinates, not taking his eyes off you as you effortlessly disarmed a larger opponent.
"That's Y/N," they answered. "Came highly recommended. Apparently, she aced the written exam, and her combat scores were near perfect."
Hoshina raised an eyebrow. "Is that so?"
He continued to observe you, taking in the way you executed each move with practiced ease. You weren't flashy, but every action was deliberate. Calculated. Efficient. Even when sparring with others, you never wasted a movement, never hesitated. You didn't rely on brute strengthâyou relied on skill, technique, and adaptability. That was rare.
And then it happened. You pivoted smoothly, dodging an attack and countering with a strike so fast and precise that your opponent didn't even realize they'd lost until they hit the ground.
A slow smirk spread across Hoshina's lips. âInteresting."
â â â â â â â â â â â
At first, Hoshina's admiration for you was just thatâadmiration. He respected talent when he saw it, and you had plenty of it. But as the days passed, something strange started happening.
He noticed you more. Not just your skill, but the way you carried yourself outside of battle. The way you interacted with your peers, always composed and disciplined yet never distant. The way you paid attention to details others overlooked. How you always seemed to have a calm, steady presence, no matter the situation.
And then there were the smaller thingsâthe way you would furrow your brow slightly when deep in thought, the way your lips quirked up in amusement at his dumb jokes even when you tried to suppress it. The way you always seemed to radiate warmth, even on the coldest of days.
Hoshina didn't know when it started, but suddenly, he found himself thinking about you more often. At first, he brushed it off as normal. You were an exceptional recruit; of course, he'd take interest in your progress. But then⌠why did his stomach twist slightly when you smiled at him? Why did he catch himself looking for you during meetings? Why did he feel this strange, restless energy whenever you weren't around?
The realization hit him one evening when he was alone in his office. He sat back in his chair, arms crossed, deep in thought. His mind kept drifting back to youâyour voice, your presence, the way you moved, the way you made him feel.
And then, it hit him like a truck.
He liked you.
The realization sent a jolt of panic through him. He was with Narumi. He loved Narumi. He had never doubted thatânot for a single second. So whyâwhyâwas he feeling this way? His stomach twisted as he buried his face in his hands. This wasn't supposed to happen. He was happy. He didn't need anything else.
For days, he tried to bury it. He kept his distance, kept conversations short, threw himself into training with a single-minded focus. But it didn't work. The more he tried to push it down, the more it consumed him.
He was in deep trouble.
Nights were the worst. Lying awake in bed, staring at the ceiling while Narumi slept soundly beside him in their shared flat. He would go over everything in his head again and again, trying to convince himself this was just a passing phase, a fleeting attraction that would fade with time. But it didn't. And the guilt was relentless, eating away at him like rust on a blade.
It took timeâfar more than he'd ever admitâbut eventually, he came to terms with the truth. His feelings weren't fading, no matter how much he tried to suppress them. Ignoring them wasn't an option. Denying them was just another kind of self-inflicted torment. The more he fought it, the more undeniable it became. He was drawn to you in a way he couldn't rationalize away.
But the realization didn't bring relief. If anything, it filled him with something much worse.
And then, one night, as he lay awake once more, staring into the darkness, a new thought crept in.
What if⌠it didn't have to be one or the other? What if⌠he could love both of you?
The idea was absurd. Selfish. Reckless. And yet, once it took root, he couldn't shake it. Because, deep down, he knewâhe didn't want to let you go. But the thought of losing Narumi was just as unbearable.
And what if that was exactly what would happen?
The fear lodged itself deep in his chest, a suffocating weight pressing against his ribs. He and Narumi had built something strong, something real. Their love wasn't perfect, but it was theirsâa steady force that had carried them through battlefields and bloodshed, through victories and near losses. The idea of losing that, of losing him⌠it made Hoshina's hands clench into fists.
What if Narumi couldn't accept it? What if, instead of falling for you too, he pulled away? What if he saw Hoshina's feelings as a betrayal rather than an expansion of something already beautiful?
What if, in the end, Hoshina's heart was too greedy?
The thought haunted him.
Yet, despite the fear, despite the risk, one truth remained unshakenâhe didn't want to let go of you, either.
That left him with only one option: if he had fallen for you, then maybeâjust maybeâNarumi could too.
It was a gamble, reckless and dangerous. If he lost, he wouldn't just lose youâhe might lose Narumi entirely. But if it worked? If Narumi saw what Hoshina saw in you, if he allowed himself to open up to the possibility⌠then the outcome would be something extraordinary. Something that defied the limits of love as most people understood it.
And so, the game began.
One evening, over drinks, Hoshina casually leaned back and smirked. "You know, I've got this recruit in my division. Sharpest one I've seen in a long time."
Narumi raised an eyebrow. "Oh?"
"Yeah. Strong, fast, disciplined. No way any of your new recruits could match up." Hoshina took a slow sip of his drink, knowing exactly what he was doing. "I mean, don't get me wrong, your cadets are decent, but this one? Definitely on a whole different level."
Narumi scoffed. "Tch. No way. No recruit is that good."
"Oh, she is." Hoshina leaned forward, grin widening. "Bet she could wipe the floor with any of yours."
That was all it took.
Narumi, never one to back down from a challenge, narrowed his eyes. "Alright, fine. Let's test this 'prodigy' of yours. I'll put in a request to have her train with the First Division for a few weeks. We'll see if she's really as good as you say."
Hoshina fought to keep his grin in check. "Sounds like a plan."
And just like that, the wheels were in motion.
Hoshina watched as Narumi unknowingly walked straight into his carefully laid trap. He knew how much Narumi valued skill, how important it was to him. And he also knew that if Narumi spent enough time around youâwatching you fight, training with you, seeing firsthand what made you exceptionalâthere was a good chance he'd fall just like Hoshina had.
All he had to do now⌠was wait.
When you arrived at the First Division, Narumi had only one goal: prove that Hoshina had been exaggerating. Sure, you might be skilled, but there was no way you were on par with his soldiers.
The first few days were a testâNarumi watching from the sidelines, waiting for a moment where you'd slip up, where his own recruits would outshine you. But it never came.
Instead, what he saw left him in stunned silence.
You were good. Too good.
During your first sparring session, Narumi's best fighters lined up, expecting an easy win over the 'new recruit.' What they got instead was a swift and merciless defeat. One by one, they fell, unable to counter your precise attacks. Your movements were like waterâunpredictable, untouchable. You read them effortlessly, dismantling their defenses before they could even adjust.
Narumi, watching from the sidelines, found himself gripping his arms tighter. He had seen his fair share of skilled fighters, but there was something different about you. You were composed, unshaken, completely in control of every encounter. You didn't just fightâyou analyzed, adapted, and executed with deadly precision.
When one of his lieutenants went in for a final desperate strike, you side-stepped effortlessly, catching their wrist mid-swing and twisting just enough to send them crashing onto the mat. The room fell into silence.
Then it was your turn to spar against one of the more experienced soldiers and Narumi finally spoke up. "Let's see if the rookie's the real deal."
To his surprise, you held your own. More than thatâyou pushed the captain to his limits. Every move was met with an equally sharp counter. Every opening the captain tried to exploit, you had already accounted for. By the time the match ended, Narumi was leaning back against the wall, arms crossed.
"Tch." Narumi clicked his tongue, stepping forward. "Alright, that's enough."
He studied you carefully, looking for any sign of hesitation, of weaknessâbut there was none. You weren't cocky, weren't gloating about your victory. Just standing there, composed, waiting for the next order.
Narumi let out a slow exhale, crossing his arms. "Looks like I might owe Hoshina a drink."
Over the next few weeks, Narumi found himself watching you more than he'd like to admit. At first, it was just observationâhabit, really. As a Captain, it was his job to monitor his subordinates, assess their progress, pinpoint their strengths and weaknesses. But with you, it was different.
You weren't just improving. You were evolving.
Despite your natural skill, you never settled, never rested on talent alone. You pushed yourself relentlessly, refining every movement, every strike, every tactic until it became second nature. It wasn't just about powerâit was about precision, control, adaptability. There was something mesmerizing about it, something he couldn't ignore.
And so, he started paying closer attention.
At first, it was casualâoffhand remarks during briefings, a stray comment about your technique. Then, he found himself analyzing your movements during sparring sessions, mentally noting how you adjusted mid-fight, how you adapted to opponents stronger than you, faster than you.
And then it became something more.
He started looking forward to seeing you in action. Started noticing the way you carried yourself outside of battleâthe determination in your gaze, the quiet confidence that came with hard-earned progress. There was a fire in you, one that refused to be snuffed out, and something about it made his chest tighten in ways he didn't fully understand.
Hoshina noticed the shift before Narumi did.
At first, Narumi only mentioned you in passing, making begrudging comments about how you weren't as bad as he initially thought. Then, he started bringing you up more oftenâsometimes in annoyance, sometimes in amusement.
And then one night, during one of their usual dates, Hoshina caught it.
A spark.
Narumi had been talking about your latest sparring match, complaining that you had nearly landed a hit on himâwhich was obviously only because you had the best possible teacher, himâbut Hoshina wasn't listening to the words. He was watching the way Narumi spoke, the way his eyes lit up, the way his expression softened just slightly when he said your name.
That was it.
That was what he had been waiting for.
"You like her, don't you?" Hoshina asked, arms crossed, watching the way Narumi immediately looked away, his usual smugness faltering for just a second.
That second was all the confirmation he needed.
"She's a good cadet, that's allâ"
"But it isn't," Hoshina's voice lost its usual playfulness, settling into something more serious. "I see the way your eyes shine when you talk about her. The way you describe her every move, her every action. You don't do that with everyone."
Narumi tensed, jaw tightening. "Tch, you're imagining thigns. I was just explaining her progress. Since she's from your division, I figured you'd want to knowâ"
"Gen."
Narumi froze. Hoshina only ever used his first name when things were truly serious. And when he finally turned to look at him, Hoshina was smilingâbut not in his usual teasing way. It was something softer, something knowing.
"You don't need to hide it. I'm sure we can figure something out. I mean, it makes sense. She's strong, capable, and honestly? Pretty damn hard not to admire."
That's when Narumi's eyes widened in realizationâhe'd been played from the very beginning. "Wait a damn secondâ"
Hoshina smirked, his expression laced with amusement. "Took you long enough."
Fury surged through Narumi as the pieces of the puzzle clicked into place. "Why didn't you just come to me? If you had feelings for someone else, why go through all this?" He couldn't contain his anger. "Why scheme like this? Why manipulate everything instead of just talking to me?" Narumi's expression darkened into a storm of frustration and disbelief. "You scheming bastard! You sent her to me on purpose! You knew I'd get attachedâ"
Hoshina shrugged nonchalantly, completely unfazed by Narumi's outburst. "Had a feeling, yeah."
Narumi's anger bubbled over, and he ran a hand through his hair in exasperation. "YouâYou played me! You set me up!"
"Well, yeah," Hoshina said casually, tilting his head, a grin tugging at his lips. "But, in my defense, it worked."
Narumi was practically vibrating with frustration. "And what if I hadn't fallen for her? What if I had just stayed loyal to you?" His voice was tight, barely keeping his composure.
Hoshina's grin slowly faded, his expression shifting into something more vulnerable, more earnest. He took a step closer, his voice lowering as if sharing something deeply personal. "Gen, I need you to understandâI've always been loyal to you. And I know, without a doubt, that you've always been loyal to me. That's never changed." His words came with an edge of pain, as if confessing a truth he hadn't fully admitted to himself until now. "If you hadn't felt the same way about her, I would've let it go. You're my priority, Gen. If you weren't on board with any of this, I would've walked away, no questions asked."
His voice grew quieter, but the sincerity in it was impossible to ignore. He looked at Narumi with a weight in his eyes, one that matched the gravity of his next words. "Because, no matter what else happens, the one thing I know for sure is that I want to be with you. I love you."
There was a pause, a brief moment where he let the full force of his feelings settle between them. "But I also know you, Gen. I know that if I was drawn to her, there was a damn good chance you would be too. And if that happened... it wasn't just me taking that risk. It was us both."
Narumi opened his mouth to argue, but nothing came out. He hated how well Hoshina knew him. He hated that, despite everything, Hoshina had been right.
After a long silence, Narumi groaned, flopping dramatically onto the couch. "You're an absolute menace."
Hoshina grinned. "But a genius."
It took a long talkâmany long talks, actuallyâbut eventually, they came to a realization. Maybe this wasn't such a bad idea. Maybe, just maybe, you were the missing piece between them. A balance between Narumi's impatience and Hoshina's cunning, a steady presence where they both could be reckless.
But just as they settled on the idea, Narumi suddenly frowned, rubbing his temples. "Wait. Does she even know about this plan?"
Silence.
Hoshina slowly opened his eyes, widening them slightly, his usual smirk faltering for a second.
"âŚDon't tell me you never even talked to her about it."
"I was busy planning how to get you to agreeâŚ"
Narumi groaned, dropping his head into his hands. "You're telling me we just spent hours discussing our future with her and you didn't even make sure she likes us back?"
"UhâŚ" Hoshina shifted. Then, his expression brightened, much to Narumi's despair. "SoâI have a plan!"

Hii,
I have a request I love protective Rhys so can you do a Rhys x reader where someone insults her and Rhys gets all overprotective and angry, like how dare they insult my mateđ¤
I hope you have a great day and thank u for writing it
Byeâ¤ď¸
iâm sorry for taking so long to write this! i hope you enjoy my spin on the prompt <3
iâm flattered
rhysand x fem/reader
warnings: none
description: a noble has quite a lot to say regarding your appointment to high lady. as much as youâd like to do it yourself, your loving mate swoops in to put them in their place.
Coming to the Court of Nightmares to play pretend in these political dances veiled in the disguise of a party was never something you were excited about through all your immortal years of knowing Rhysand. So, naturally, you were feeling an extra weight of anxiety now that you would be attending as the High Lady of the Night Courtâtherefore a major piece in what was originally just Rhysand and the Court of Nightmareâs game of chess. You understood your mate morphed himself into an entirely different person as he believed that the one way to keep this imbalanced section of the Night Court under order was to keep them intimidated with the illusion of a cruel leaderâfor who would challenge someone who held no moral bounds?
While your mate had yearsâif not centuriesâof practice in carefully carving this mask to wear at a ball that wasnât even a masquerade, you had only been High Lady for two years. Before that, you kept your head low or simply did not attend the events held in this part of the court. It goes without saying that you were extremely prone to criticism, which was especially worrying in a place that was kept under control through the guise that they were not allowed to question their authority.
Alas, your lover insisted that it would be better for you to attend with him. Rhysand promised that you were safe there in his company (and that the food and drinks would be to your liking), while urging that it was better to show your face and prove that these Fae did not make you afraid than stay behind and let them mumble amongst themselves. Because, of course, this court was no longer run by only the High Lord, so now you needed to demand respect as well.
Standing in the mirror, you decide that at least it was somehow easing to be wearing such an elegant gown to the ball. With long sleeves and a deep plunge, your black dress hugs your curves and falls over your hips to the floor. You thought it was a nice touch that the ends of the long skirt are flecked in white that gave the illusion you had just waded through a pool of stars. Your hair is done up nicely as well to flaunt your neck and the silver jewels decorating it, the light piece of jewelry falling deep on your chest.
âIâm wondering if bringing you may be a mistake after all,â a familiar voice hums lovingly behind you. You whirl around from the mirror, brows furrowed as you watch your mate expectantly for an explanation.
Rhysand chuckles, raising his hands in a surrendering gesture as he pushes himself off of the doorframe he was leaning against, âYou are one beautiful distraction, darling. Iâm not sure if Iâll be able to stay focused on politics when I have the brightest star in Prythian right at my side. Thatâs all.â
You roll your eyes regardless of the fact youâre now sure you didnât need to put blush on when doing your make up earlier. âOh, yeah, cover it up, Mr. High Lord,â you huff in faux annoyance, though perhaps some real insecurity.
Rhysand was quick to notice that, and even quicker to invade your personal space by wrapping an arm around your waist and guiding you to his chest. âDonât forget Mr. High Lord needs his Mrs. High Lady there,â he coos, grinning when his cheesy words evoke a sweet laugh from your lips.
You decide to change the topic rather than continue to brood over the inevitable reality of the ball you are about to be an unwanted spotlight in. âIs everyone else ready?â you ask, thinking of your friends who also are expected to be attending due to political reasons. Azriel, Cassian, and even Mor were always expected to at least show their faces.
Rhysand nods idly, clearly too distracted by you to shift his mind to be thinking about them. âTheyâre waiting, but Iâm sure they wonât mind it if weâre a little late,â he says, grinning like a feline as he leans down over you to try and capture your lips with his. You evade Rhysandâs flirtatious attempts to seduce you by leaning back and resting your palm against his chest.
âNuh-uh. No way am I being late to this thing,â though you pause and return his playful grin, âthough if it goes well, maybe we can celebrate later. The zipper on this dress is pretty difficult to undo,â you hum.
âIâd be glad to lend a hand with that.â he winks, smiling like a fool as his boyish attitude earns yet another laugh from you.
Rhysand was a tempting sight to be seen, though. It appears as though he wanted to make you two look like dynastic royalty with the way you both are dressed, perhaps to look utterly untouchable to the rebellious crowd you are about to endure. His suit was pitch black, tailored perfectly to hug his V-shaped waist and embroidered with deep purple lacing at its hems. His sleek black hair is pushed back with what you assume is gel, though either by Rhysandâs doing or its own failure some of raven strands had fallen down over his forehead. You couldnât help but make the allusion of you being the stars and him being the milky way.
âAlright, letâs go before you get too carried away,â you insist. And with that, Rhysand pulls you closer to him and winnows you to where your friends waitâsome more impatiently, as Azriel stands with his arms crossed and an accusing expression at the two of you for being late.
By the time you arrive in the Court of Nightmares, you realize the party wasnât starting without Rhysand and you. The throne room was done up extravagantly to meet the expectations of the High Fae citizens of Hewn City, the pure silver decorations a stark contrast to the deep, shiny ebony that the room was etched from.
Beautiful faces all around the room turn to watch you and your mate enter, their drinks idle in their hands and their conversations paused so that they can get a good look at the new High Lady. You swallow, keeping your chin up and moving on to the main floor alongside your mate. The back of Rhysandâs hand brushes yours, and when you turn to look up at him you see that heâs offering you his arm. You link your elbow with his, allowing him to lead you the rest of the way into the parted crowds.
When the pair of you begin to near the dais, you see only one throne sits at the centre of it. Rhysand seems to have this planned, though, as he gently guides you away and lets go of your elbow once you reach a small cluster of nobles. Of course, it all came down to symbolism and perception, because rulers who are supposed to be equals should have their own thrones to sit, and holding on to you when not walking would be seen as more controlling than chivalrous.
âHigh Lord, itâs been quite some time since youâve visited,â one of the Fae spoke. Her features were sharp and dark, brought out by her even darker makeup. To your surprise, she turns to look at you, âAnd youâre not alone. You must be our new High Lady, Iâve never seen you at any of the parties here.â the nameless female hums, her gaze dragging down along you. You can see in her brown eyes she finds nothing to criticize as she releases a small âhmphâ of both disappointment and approval.
âYes, I am. Iâm glad to finally have the opportunity to visit Hewn City properly.â you respond, offering a small, neutral smile. You decided that maybe if you treat these people politely, and not allow any snide remarks to outwardly anger you, they would see you as immune to their judgment and would back down.
The female raises her brow. Rhysand later would tell you her name is Emelia, daughter of a family known for trades. But when you glance to your side, you realize your mate has been pulled aside with Mor in what looks like an unpleasant conversation with Keir, the steward of Hewn City.
Emelia decides to strike while youâre alone, having no respect for someone who, technically, wasnât her direct authority, âWell, that makes it sounds like you werenât allowed to visit the Court. Why, does your High Lord keep you at armâs length?â she drawls, sipping her golden-flaked wine in a weak attempt to hide her triumphant smirk.
Your back straightens, stunned for only a moment at her implication. âWell, itâs just a little difficult finding free time to revel so often when there are duties I must see to for the Night Court as a whole. Iâm not sure if you will understand, however, considering how many of these occasions youâve mentioned you spend your time going to.â you quip, quickly realizing that being nice and courteous to people wouldnât work, and that Rhysand was unfortunately right to maintain equilibrium in Hewn City through intimidation.
You leave Emelia fuming in your wake, not bidding her a farewell as you head to Rhysand who now converses with Keir alone. Your mate looks relieved when he sees you coming, moving like a wisp in your black dress across the ebony throne room. The male to his left, however, looks less than pleased to see you coming in contrast.
âKeir,â you greet as Rhysand bends to kiss your cheek in loving greeting.
Keir only says your name in return before looking to Rhysand. âWell, thatâs all from me, enjoy your fun, Rhysand.â he says, sending a scrutinizing look your way before departing.
Your mate lets him go without the satisfaction of a response. Rhysand sighs, turning to face you and reaching a hand to adjust the positioning of your necklace. His hand brushes against your collarbone as you meet his eyes. âWas she giving you trouble?â he says, recalling that he had to leave you with Emelia, âI felt some tension on your end of the bond,â he murmurs, careful of the level of his voice due to the room being full of prying, pointy ears.
âNothing I couldnât handle,â you assure him, taking your turn to do some adjusting by straightening the sculpted fabric of his overcoat. You thought you had managed yourself well with Emelia, who you assume was somewhere between a jealous young female to another rebellious citizen spewing the opinions fed to her by others, and your confidence began to return until you and Rhysand were silent enough for a conversation to reach your ears.
âLook at her. Dressed like a queen and yet she does nothing for the Night Court,â a male voice scoffed. You hear female and male voices laughing almost forcefully in adoration. The male continues, his voice only slightly muffled from the crowd and the distant music, âAll Iâm saying is, I donât even work in politics and I could probably do a better job than her.â
After some more irritating cackling, a female voice pipes in, âThe dress is tacky, anyway.â
With your heart in your stomach, you donât even have the chance to look around and locate the owners of these voices as you notice your mate has already walked the few feet over to the small group near the edge of the throne room.
You worry that following after your mate and standing there as he, you assume, chides the yapping male, you make your way to the nearby refreshment table. Azriel thankfully stands there, who seems to be avidly trying to blend into the wall in order to avoid conversing with the unpleasant guests.
âPretend weâre having a conversation. Iâm eavesdropping.â you tell him once you arrive, and Azriel responds with a joking âyes, maâamâ as you become another one of the pointy-eared eavesdroppers.
âCielo,â you hear Rhysand drawl, a wicked grin on his face as he inserts himself into their conversation. Satisfaction begins to lift your heart back into place as the groupâs laughter comes to an abrupt halt.
âAre you implying you think youâd be a better High Lady for me?â Rhysand hums, brow raising at Cielo, who now looks stiff with embarrassment. âReally, I had no idea you harboured such feelings for me, Iâm truly flattered.â Rhysand continues just enough so that Cieloâs friends have turned their amusement to their rather humiliated looking pal.
Rhysand takes a step forward, a few inches taller than the glaring male. âIâd hate to break your heart, but if you ever speak about your High Lady and my mate in such a disgusting manner again, I will make an example out of you as to exactly what the punishment is for disrespecting your authority.â and just as his friends began to snicker, Rhysandâs sharp violet gaze turns to them. âAnd that goes for all of you,â he snaps. Rhysand stalks away, leaving the small crowd of Fae in silence as he finds you next to Azriel.
âYou know,â you say cheekily, âI couldâve handled that, too.â
Rhysand sighs as he takes a glass of wine from the table, likely wanting some alcohol to stroke away the flames of his temper. âI know, darling. Sorry for beating you to it, I just couldnât stand by and listen to them spit bullshit like that.â he scoffs. You canât be bothered to be madâtoo busy gleaming in triumph and pride over your loveâs protectiveness.
âWell, I think they learned their lesson,â you giggle, glancing to the group who now watch you and Rhysand in weariness rather than entitlement.
âGood. If they canât appreciate what you do for them, they could at least keep their mouths shut.â he hisses. You rest your hand on Rhysandâs elbow to bring his attention back to you.
âWhy donât we dance? That way, no one can judge us for not speaking to anyone.â you suggest.
Rhysand takes your hand and kisses the back of it, âI like the sound of that.â he agrees.
After a night full of dancing and more inevitable political conversations, you and Rhysand winnow back to the House of Wind as you call it a night. You find yourself standing in front of your long mirror, trying to reach back to undo the finicky zipper of your dress. You see Rhysand take a step closer to you in the mirror and feel as his hands snake into place on each side of your waist.
âSo, how about that celebrating?â he grins to your reflection.

While almost everyone carves wooden things, Golden Fool went for shiny. He was the one and only goldsmith on the server and took pride in making beautiful jewelry. It was mostly for himself: dozens of bulky rings so he could flaunt a new combination every week, chandelier earrings ranging from gothic to floral, torque and festoon necklaces when he felt extra fancy, simpler and lighter necklaces on the days that called for a minimal (but still quite stylish) look
The gemstones that were skillfully embedded in them came fromâŚaround the server. Didnât matter where, everything was his anyways. He stood clear of the âcursedâ crystals the wizard man had. Ugly plastic
No one else was allowed to wear his jewelry. There were, however, very few exceptions
Milkman isnât one to wear big, fancy shmancy gold. He likes how they look, but honestly- theyâre too clunky and noisy for him. The first thing Fool made for him were gold buttons to replace the wack plastic ones on his jacket. Just a pop of color, a little glamour with a geometric pattern. Halfway through the smithing process, Fool had an idea for a matching gold patch on his hat. Then two extra buttons for the end of his jacket sleeves as well. He tailored them in with care
They were small, dapper, perfect, and Milkman loved them. His partner admired the new look in the mirror. There was an extra shine to him âand not just literallyâ confidence lit up his face, he had an extra pep in his step as he walked around the server, and those long hours Fool spent making the ornaments look just right became very worth it to see Milkman a little happier
Every now and again, Milkman came to him with a sheepish request for new gold. He promised he was doing his best to not accidentally fall into the void. It held up to be true. As the months went by, void deaths become scarce and the occasional creeper was to blame for lost accessories. And every time he asked for new ones: Fool gave the same deep sigh, crossed his arms and asked âSo what design would you like this time?â Milkman always complimented the speed it took for them to be created, and he was delighted by the extra surprises thrown in
Fool didnât tell him about the hidden chest filled with an array of golden buttons, patches, gemstone hat charms, and hat pins. He saw this coming
In the early days, Vintage wanted to wear dangle earrings with cherry wood flowers. It took a lot of trial and error. During a hangout, she carved off more than expected, kept trying to save it as a smaller design, kept misjudging cuts, until her earrings became sad little chunks. It had been a long week and she almost gave up on wood carving right then and there
Fool sat down next to them and shared a handful of stories where he screwed up gold smithing. Like- taking a sip of molten gold instead of the cup of coffee that was right next to it, or that time he sneezed while etching a very complicated pattern and continued one millimeter off, one exhausted afternoon he chipped off gold from his skin instead of his projectâouchâ, and boy was he glad no one else was around the day his (unchecked) workstation collapsed on itself and he had to literally play the floor is lava. With each retelling, he was met with a surprised laugh and the frustration eased from Vintageâs shoulders. She wasnât alone in making mistakes. If Fool went through it and still made amazing works, it wasnât hopeless for her
He taught her a couple tricks to get 3d shapes a little closer to what she imagined in her head. Gold smithing and wood carving were very different processes, but any idea began at a sketch
Two weeks later, Vintage gifted him a charm bracelet. It was decently detailed and adjusted nicely to his wrist. Not shiny, but their pride at finally making something look cute and the time they spent on it was more than enough to graciously wear it. A couple days later, Fool surprised her with a beaded bracelet, gorgeously flower themed. They could be matching!
Vintage adored it and showed it off to anyone who stopped to have a conversation with her. When the others yearned for a cool shiny thing like hers, she gave a sweet smile and teased them for being on Foolâs enemy list. Because even if birch was on neutral grounds with someone, it was only a matter of time before crime and chaos fell their way. Anyone who wasnât a friend was kept at armâs length. Which meantâ no shiny for youuu
One day it disappeared. Mustâve gotten lost in cherryâs god awful storage system. Vintage felt so, so sorry they lost it. They knew Fool spent precious time on it and theyâd hate to be a bother asking for another one. But Fool shrugged it off, it was no biggie, really. In fact, it gave him the opportunity to indulge in designs he sketched out. By the end of the week he made a new friendship bracelet, charm necklace, and cuff ring that suited her unicorn horn nicely. Vintage was so happy she nearly cried, she thanked him over and over and promised to keep them in a better place
A few weeks went by, and she was utterly distraught at losing them. All of them. She swore up and down they were in her enderchest, she did wear them out one fancy evening, mustâve forgotten to put it back. They said they checked all over cherry kingdom and retraced her steps, but no shiny :(
Again they lamented to Fool, and again he workshopped another few accessories to replace those. By the 4th time, he started to question her genuineness. His gifts never lasted longer than 3 weeks, it seemed more like a scheduled âdisappearanceâ. It was by chance he spotted her strolling on the edge of the shopping district with her new jewelry. She clasped them off, held a fistful of his work over the edge, and let it drop
He stopped talking with Vintage after that. Sheâd been acting weird lately anyways. Their handcrafted bracelet went to the void, too
And when Milkman accused him of working behind his backâ oohhh
Fool stormed up to the hidden chest and melted everything back into a pot of liquid gold. It was his and he could do whatever he wanted with it. Have it ready to be refurnished into new accessories for himself. Milkman would never get anything new, either
When the Halloween Ball rolled around, he made sure to wear the most exquisite gold heâs ever made. He wanted eyes on him. He wanted people to feel jealous when they looked at him. He wanted admiration like no other and hoped it would draw the others to him. Novelty was the gateway to trust. Just. Everyone to give him another chance
Look at how incredible his gold smithing was! Didnât you want something shiny too? Didnât you want to be his friend?
Eyes definitely looked in his direction. But the longer the night dragged on the more self conscious he became. People kept their distance. Fool swatted away any naive hope that dared fester in his lonely soul. Of course they did. They should. Everyone was hiding something, exchanging whispers and glances that could only be about him. How dare he dress himself as a spectacle, and beckon attention when none of them deserved it. Everyone had a weird thing going on with them. Everyone had it out for him. What else did the void want? More of his jewelry? His kingdom? They had to be working together. They wanted to take more from him. He couldnât trust theseâŚtheseâ
A glint of gold called to him
Amongst the crowd, a singular hat pin shined underneath the chandelier lights. Milkman was lost in his own world, giggling and dancing with someone else
Fool heard the gold on his skin crack and crumble
The greedy one having a love language of gift giving was a pretty big deal
The Librarian knows this, and they know they arenât here to be a replacement. They leave his goldsmith workshop alone
Let it collect dust

Masterlist
Ironhide Masterlist
---------
She's using his revision mirror again to touch up her lipstick. It wouldn't bother Ironhide as much if it wasn't for the fact she was flaunting herself at him while they were driving.Â
Ironhide let out an exasperated vent. On the surface he tried to remain stoic, but inside circuits were frayed from the incessant primping and preening whenever she had the chance to ride in his cab.Â
"Must you always fuss so much?" he grumbled, unable to keep the irritation from his voice. "I am driving, in case you've forgotten. And I suspect your antics are meant more for distracting me than seeing to your own looks."
She had been batting her lashes and smiling his way ever since they departed their last stop, and his patience for such frivolities was running low. so for now he strove to ignore the human's attempts at getting a rise out of him, less he ran them off the road.
His engine rumbled in a weary sigh. "Focus on the task at hand, little one. We'll be back at base soon enough."
She shoots him a smile in his mirror again. "And here I thought you enjoyed my company, getting sick of me already Hide?" She teases him.
Ironhide's engine responded with a grumble that was half irritation, half amusement. As trying as his Minx could be at times, he had to admit her bold spirit was refreshing and she did keep him on his toes.
"In small doses only, little witch," he retorted, though without any real bite to his words. "Your antics might be tolerable in brief stretches, keep your optics on the road, less we get ambushed by Decepticons"Â
Still, there was a certain grudging fondness in the way his voice. For all her mischief, the human's fearless nature was what had drawn him to her, she wasn't military but a chance encounter had him on the run with her from Decepticon fire.
 In her own tiny way, she helped ease some of the weariness that had built up over countless vorns of endless conflict. Her voice he could listen to for aeons.Â
Part of Ironhide didn't truly mind the company...so long as she minded her manners while in his cab, and kept her hands to herself while they drove.
"Fine guess I'll have to show off for someone else back on base" she states. He knows she's trying to get under his plating, and she knows how to get him.Â
His engine rumbled warningly at that comment. While he knew she was just prodding him to get a reaction, the suggestion of flirting with another stirred a possessiveness in his circuits.Â
"Watch it, fleshie," he growled, though without any real heat to the words.Â
"Keep carrying on so and I may be inclined to park your backside right here until we're done," he blustered. But his warming cab and rumbling engine betrayed that any real ire was short-lived where she was concerned. Still, it wouldn't do to let her think she'd won so easily.Â
Soft laughter falls from her lips, " jealous bot" she shoots back at him as the two finally arrive back at base.Â
She gets chatty with security At the entrance to N.E.S.TÂ
Ironhide's engine uttered another warning grumble as she chatted away with the other humans, seemingly having forgotten her promise to mind her manners. His patience was wearing thin after the long drive, and he'd had just about enough of her frivolous games.
Pulling up as close to the hangar doors as his alt mode would allow, he popped open the driver side door with a pointed snap. "Out. Now," he rumbled, unwilling to play chauffeur any longer while she was in her mood to cause chaos. Â
When she turned back with that coquettish smirk, Ironhide growled deep in his intakes. "Don't test me, fleshie. You've had your fun, now get inside like I said. Unless you'd rather I carry you in?"Â
He knew full well manhandling the human would be crossing a line. But she had a way of pushing all his buttons without fail.Â
She slowly moves to get out of his front seat. Her hands linger on the dashboard for a moment before she steps out onto the concrete. She's quick to walk inside after giving his tailgate a slap, a small laugh leaves her as she runs.Â
With a grumble and hiss of hydraulics, Ironhide transformed once she had cleared his cab, looming over the hangar entrance. Ironhide let out an annoyed huff of exhaust as the girl once more tested his patience, That sharp little slap to his tailgate was the final straw.
Revving his engine menacingly, Ironhide rumbled forward until his massive bulk filled the hangar entrance, blocking any hope of escape back out the entrance. "Minx," he accused, optics narrowing at the smiling human within. "Do you enjoy pushing me this far every time?"
Despite his gruff tone, there was no true anger. After all this time, she knew full well how to get under his plating without ever crossing a line. And loathe as he was to admit, some small part of Ironhide even admired her spirit.Â
Still, there were consequences to be had for such teasing. Leaning in until he is eye level with her "Consider this your official timeout, fleshling. Until I deem you've learned your lesson, you'll remain right where I put you."
With that, he sealed the hangar shut with a steely grinding of gears. "Iron!" She squeals out only to gasp more as Ironhide grabs her before continuing further into his hanger, his human in hand. Her legs dangle between his digits as she holds onto him. "Oh my God you're an ass! Give me a warning next time" She shoots back at him
Ironhide huffed a gruff chuckle at the human's outburst. "And miss that precious little squeal? Not a chance, fleshie."Â
"You know full well your games grate on my circuits, princess," he rumbled lightly. "A little fear is good for the spark. Keeps you on your toes and out of trouble." Not that he would ever hurt her.Â
Once she was steady on her pedes again standing on their shared berth, more so crudely made slab with piles of her blankets and pillows on it "Consider that payback for your mischief, little pest. Next time, mind your hands and that smart mouth, lest I find a use for them." His field pulsed warm with amusement.Â
 Soft little noises leave her as Ironhide's digits wrap around her pressing gently into her side, back and against her chest.Â
Ironhide vented softly as his powerful digits carefully cradled the human's tiny frame. For all their teasing and bickering, in quiet moments like this he was reminded of just how fragile organics were.Â
His field pulsed warm and gentle, laced with protectiveness as he gradually increased the pressure, testing her limits but taking care not to crush even an ounce of strength. "Comfortable, little one?" he rumbled softly.Â
When she offered no protest, Ironhide began slowly massaging her back struts, mimicking the way she sometimes soothed his aching finger joints. Though his plating was rough-hewn metal and her skin oh so delicate.
A rumble rose from his frame, vibrating through her in a sensation she called a "purr." His optics were lidded in contentment, focusing only on her within his grasp.Â
She slowly leans back into his touch. And as his digits travel further down she arches into his touch a small whine falls from her lips. She slowly grinds against Ironhide teasing digit. trying to make him get the picture of what she wanted and why she had been teasing him all day.Â
Ironhide's engine revved sharply in surprise at the reaction his gentle touch elicited. His optics shuttered briefly. "Minx," he scolded gently. "All this torment was for my attention, then?"
Lowering his face close, he nuzzled her tiny form with care before capturing her lips in a chaste kiss, its slow and soft, flesh against metal. Another whine leaves her lips as she looks up at him. "You've been too busy recently, I missed you" she states as he lays her down against the piles of blankets. Slowly hiking her dress up only to be met with nothing underneath. Ironhide stilled, intake caught in surprise at her display. His optics roved hungrily over the tempting view before him, unable to deny the allure of her plan so cunningly executed.
A low rumble rose from his chassis. "Devious creature," he purred, engine revving at the wanton invitation in her gaze. How could he refuse when she had so clearly orchestrated this?
His name softly falls from her lips. Her eyes flicker to where he kneels in front of the berth. Leaning down, he nuzzled her frame with utmost care "All this just for me?" His field pulsed hot and heady as he traced the seam of her folds with a single digit.Â
Rising temptation warred with duty and honour. But her needful whine as she canted her hips persuaded him. Slowly Ironhide runs his glossa across sweet skin. She whines loudly when he leans down and runs his glossa between her folds sucking softly on her clit before he delivers back into teasing. Her hands grip his helm quickly. "Ironhide please" she calls out.
His glossa is enveloped in tight velvet warmth. His intake caught on a groan at sensations. He could never get enough of how sweet she tasted, she is sweeter than pre war energon candies. Ironhide rumbled deeply at her pleas, the sound vibrating through her very core as he worshipped her flesh. Making her gasp and cry out brought him no small amount of satisfaction to reduce his teasing femme to putty in his grasp with nothing but tongue.Â
"Easy, little one," he crooned against her wetness. With maddening slowness he circled her clit, cataloguing every hitch of her breath, every whimper and sigh. Ever so carefully Ironhide delved his glossa inside.
 Ironhide rumbled deep in approval as she rode his glossa without restraint, soft hips bucking against his mouth. making her pleasure his sole focus in that moment. Her cries and moans only spurred him on, lapping eagerly at her slick flesh.
One hand braced against her hip to hold her steady, But Ironhide was far from passive, pressing his glossa as deep as he was able between each thrust. The vibrations of his rumbling engine only enhanced every sensation.Â
When her hips began to canter erratically, Ironhide redoubled his efforts. Cried out moans leave her lips as her orgasm hits, hips bucking in irregular patterns as she sobs out Ironhide's name. With one final curl of his glossa, he felt her walls flutter madly around him. Greedily Ironhide lapped up every drop of her release, savouring this sweet taste.Â
Yet still he craved more of her intoxicating and addictive taste, seeking to prolong her bliss for as long as was within his power.Â
Carefully he manoeuvred her limp frame until she straddled his glossa once more, keening softly as the hypersensitive flesh of her clit met his eager mouth. Slowly Ironhide tongued her folds, memorising every detail as her flavour grew sweeter still in her fluttering aftershocks. "Ironhide!" She moans out loudly.Â
One of his hands trailed maddeningly along her back, tracings her spine, caressing and stroking anew. Ironhide growled around his mouthful, greedily drinking in every drop he could as shudders wracked her frame.
Retreating only when she sagged fully sated against him, Ironhide cradled her close to his chassis, content merely to hold her. Her breathing calmed as he nuzzled her adoringly, spark swelling with quiet joy.Â
She lays content against him, soft pants leaving her lips as Ironhide brings her pile of blankets up for her. She slowly snuggles into him through the blankets. Ironhide himself is content to put off mission reports for his little minx.
Ironhide's engine rumbled softly in wordless affection as the human curled contentedly against his chassis, safely wrapped in makeshift padding. Her soft respiration and fluttering pulse cycled down into sated recharge, safe in his guarded embrace.
Adjusting until he was lounging comfortably, Ironhide idly stroked her naked back, tracing glyphs into soft flesh
Until then, Ironhide was content simply to monitor her recharge and bask in the aftermath. The closeness of her tiny frame to his mighty systems never ceased to stir something deep within.
Her presence soothed the savage rages of battle, tempering even his trigger-happy impulses into something nobler. "Minx" he mumbles softly before settling in to recharge himself.Â

First Impressions.
Summary; Bruce is distracted when he meets you at a Gala Pairing; Bruce Wayne x Female Reader WordCount; 552 Credit to cafekitsune for the banner and the divider!


Bruce navigated the room with practiced ease. He slipped into the room with precision. Bruce knew exactly what to say, and who to say it to. Bruce knew the attendees who he needed to work harder to obtain what he wanted.
Events like this Bruce often remained focused during a Gala such as these. Albeit, he often found himself bored. It was all about keeping up appearances.
However, Bruce was distracted tonight. A long flowing black gown glided across the floor. Eyes met momentarily as Bruce allowed a subtle smile to grace his lips. A mirror image as you brought a champagne flute to your crimson-painted lips.
Bruce didn't care for any other guests tonight. Except you. He wanted to make your acquaintance. Suddenly, Bruce was no longer engaged in the current conversation. He nodded his head, providing short answers. Desperate to end the conversation to make his introductions.
Bruce allowed the conversation five more minutes before he made his excuses. He took two champagne flutes from the waiter passing by.
You were alone, taking a breather from the constant barrage of questions and fake pleasantries. Unlike many you were attending because you cared about helping under privileged children. Unlike those who were heard to spread and hear gossip.
"You look like you could use this" Your eyes glanced up to be met with the hose for the evening. Blue eyes met yours. "Thank you, this place looks beautiful." You examined the room taking in the sight. His team had done an amazing job. Except Bruce couldn't admire he view because he couldn't take his eyes off of you. You were breathtaking.
"I can't take the credit. I have an excellent team. They're the ones who made it possible." "Well then you have a great team, Mr. Wayne, you should be proud." "Thank you and please call me Bruce." Bruce angled himself towards you, interested in taking in every minuscule detail about you. That was only the beginning for Bruce, he wanted to know you inside and out. Bruce's nerves were on edge. He'd never been so compelled before. Never by another person. "So what brings you here tonight?" "I work alongside the charity. You're doing excellent work you have no idea how much of an impact the donations will have getting kids off the streets, giving them a chance at life." Bruce admired the way you spoke, The passion in your voice, the way your animated hands reiterated that. "I'm always willing to help any way I can. Gotham's youth are going to bring change. It's something I'm passionate about Bruce observed your smile widen. "I wish others here tonight held your sentiment. Most are here for the publicity and the idle gossip. Tonight's more about flaunting their wealth. They will not give a second thought to the children tonight." "Perhaps we could arrange dinner? Talk about the ways I could help. I'd love to get more involved. "Thank you, I don't know what to say." "Say yes. Let me take you out. Somewhere more intimate and less pretentious. We can talk about everything and make a plan. Bruce gave you a moment, hoping this could provide the opportunity to get to know you and create a different change rather than fighting Gotham's underbelly. "Sure I'll go to dinner with you."

Consequences
So a while back, I wrote what was supposed to be the beginning of another fic, about Suguru losing his girl to Satoru. However, I never picked it back up. With Savior concluded, I'll probably start working on it soon. Until then, enjoy this snippet :)
Every little choice you make has the potential to affect the very course of your future. Asking someone how theyâre doing may prevent them from ending their own life. Deciding to ask a stranger for directions can lead to meeting your soulmate. Waking up too late can save you from being a victim of a brutal attack. Accepting a drink from a stranger can lead to you being kidnapped and sold. Driving your car just a little too fast can result in you dying a fiery death.
Making little choices that alter your life and that of those around you is the very basis of the butterfly effect. Your actions always have consequences, after all.
Suguru Geto was now learning this the hard way. Not answering a few texts, rejecting some invitations to hang out, and missing a few days of school seemed like minor choices. He hadnât been in the right headspace for the past few weeks. Rikoâs death had impacted him, and every day, he regretted not allowing Satoru to slaughter those fucking twisted cultists.
Their applause continued to echo through his head, the memory of the way they rejoiced at the death of an innocent girl never failing to sicken him.
Heâd thought nothing of taking time to himself to cope and intended to make it up to every single one of his friends. You, most especially. Heâd begun to long for the feeling of you in his arms and planned to treat you to a date night to apologize for his absence.
But actions have consequences, and the consequence for his was seeing Satoru flaunt you around the school. Unlike him, the heir of the Gojo clan had no reservations about showing you off to the world.
And why wouldnât he? You were so quick-witted, a living challenge to the idea that pretty girls couldnât be intelligent or capable. Your cursed energy could turn explosive, and he delighted in seeing the sadistic smile on your gorgeous face as you blew up 1st-grade curses with ease. You werenât from a major clan, but you were from an upper-middle-class family of sorcerers thatâd traveled the world, making you miles more experienced than most of your peers.
Your knowledge was something he loved about you, and your technique was something he admired about you. He adored seeing you high off adrenaline and caught up in a battle, how light your laugh sounded, the way your pretty eyes gleamed. The nature of your technique made you destructive, and you embraced that wholeheartedly.
Youâd been the yin to his yang, and he allowed you to slip through his fingers.
Suguru hadnât wanted to broadcast your relationship, not ready to fully commit to you. He was a part of the strongest duo, and that came with a lot of responsibility, which allowed little room for love.
Or, so it had seemed, as Satoru seemed to be juggling the two just fine. Because unlike him, Satoru had taken Rikoâs death as a testament to how short life was and didnât hesitate to take his chance with you.
He regretted not adhering to your pleas to publicly claim you, and anger would flare inside of him every time he wondered how long you held feelings for Satoru. Surely, his time away from you wasnât enough for your feeling to fade away.
But either you were a damned good actress, or youâd truly fallen out of love with him, and transferred your feeling to his white-haired friend. The two of you were caught up in your own little world, giggling as Shoko looked at you and Satoru in disgust. Watching the two of you was sickeningly sweet, and whereas the brunette seemed repulsed by your bountiful PDA, it only made Suguru bitter.
It should be him holding you, not Satoru. The man already had everything, being blessed in every way imaginable. He had looks, money, power, and a stupidly large personality. Surely, it wouldnât be too much to let Suguru have you? If anything, you should be his reward for all heâs gone through, not another thing heâs lost.
Satoru brushed his lips over yours, and though the kiss was chaste, it was too much for Suguru to bear. Were you trying to make him jealous, allowing your exâs friend to be so handsy with you?
As Shoko faked a gag, Suguru shot from his seat. His friends look at him in confusion, while you merely rolled your eyes. When you look at him, there was no bitterness or satisfaction in your gaze. No, it was worse with that, as your eyes held no discernable feelings for him. It was a far cry from the way you looked at Satoru, so full of affection, the same you way used to look at him.
âYou good, bro?â Satoru questioned; his arm wrapped around your shoulders.
No, he wasnât, and his best friend was part of the reason why. He never gave much thought to the flirty comments Satoru aimed your way, because thatâs just who Satoru is, a flirt. He thought it was just playful banter, not that he was expressing his true feelings for you.
How wrong heâd been.
âIâm fine,â he gritted out, gathering his things.
He could tell none of you believed him, but he didnât care. He needed to get away from you and Satoru before he did something heâd regret.
âWhere are you going?â Shoko asked, twirling the stick she kept in her mouth.
To find a curse to brutally kill. He needed a way to release his jealous rage.
âI have something to do.â
âOh, wait, before you go, weâre going out tonight,â Satoru revealed, gently stroking your back as you leaned against him. âWanna come?â
And see you all dolled up, wrapped around Satoru, and pretending he didnât exist? Heâd have to pass.
âIâll see.â
âOh, câmon,â you whined, finally acknowledging him. âWe havenât hung out in so long!â
He had to hold back a scoff at your faux concern. If you really did care, you wouldâve waited for him until he was ready to come back to you.
ââŚIâll think about it.â
âIâll text you the deets,â you said, ignoring his hesitance as you pulled your phone from your pocket.
Nodding, he began to walk away, stopping when his phone buzzed. His eyes widened at your message.
You: Stop being a little bitch and text Satoru back. He misses you.
You: I know youâve seen them.
He quickly put his phone away, worried heâd throw the device if he stared at your texts much longer. Of course, you didnât miss him. No, you were only concerned about Satoru.
Turning back, he shot you a glare, but your focus was again on Satoru. Not even Shoko noticed him, too concerned about making fun of you two.
Not bothering to hide his soured expression, he stomped away. Maybe he would go out tonight, just to put a damper on yours. Perhaps, heâd find a pretty thing to cuddle up with as you had with his best friend, though he doubted heâd elicit a reaction from you. Regardless, he needed some way to get the bitterness out of his system, and fucking it out might just be the best release possible.
So, as he stomped away, he fired off a text to Satoru to let him know heâd be in attendance.

An Illicit Affair
Part 12: The Greenhouse
Pairing: Cillian Murphy (46) x Reader (23)
Warning: Age-Gap, Taboo Relationship, Infidelity
Dressed in a black dress, you arrived at the university event early, ensuring that everything was running smoothly.Â
The hall was decorated beautifully, with fairy lights strung along the walls and fresh flowers adorning each tall table. The sound of soft music filled the air, creating a romantic atmosphere while waiters walked around, offering drinks and canapes.Â
As guests trickled in, you scanned the crowd, searching for the people you knew. You spotted James and Lucy standing near the entrance, laughing and chatting with others. Just like Cillian and the chair of the UNESCO board in London, James was a guest speaker at the event and since you, amongst some other students, were organizing the fund raiser, you had to act professional and polite towards everyone attending.
Your gaze then wandered across the room again and, eventually, you spotted Cillian who was accompanied by his wife Danielle and Max.Â
The sight of them sent a rush of conflicting emotions through you. You wanted to see Cillian yet dreaded the encounter.Â
After ignoring his text message a couple of weeks ago, following your date with James, you knew that your encounter with him might be awkward and Danielle's presence didn't ease the situation either.
She looked stunning herself and, ever since she married Cillian, she never missed an opportunity to showcase her wealth and influence as, clearly, she enjoyed his celebrity status more than he did.Â
Danielle dressed up like she owned the fashion industry, wearing a white dress. Her blonde hair was styled to perfection, cascading effortlessly down her shoulders, and she flaunted her 4,000-pound designer bag with pride.
Max too was dressed to impressed, wearing a black suit and a slim tie.Â
He couldn't deny that he looked good, but there was a slight awkwardness to his demeanor, a shadow of pain lurking behind his confident façade. His gaze shifted discreetly to you, a small frown creasing his forehead before he turned his attention to the person beside him.
Cillian, on the other hand, gave you a knowing smile and you knew that, at the very least, you had to greet him and his wife.
So, mustering up your courage, you approached them, smiling awkwardly.
"Y/N," Danielle greeted you, extending her slender arm, offering her manicured hand. "It is so good to see you again," she said, her voice dripping with artificial warmth just like when you had visited Max's family home in Dublin some time ago. There was always something odd about her but you knew to remain polite nonetheless.Â
"It's good to see you too, Mrs Murphy," you muttered, shaking her hand briefly before also greeting Cillian and Max with a friendly nod.
"Hey," Max greeted you casually, his gaze lingering on you longer than necessary.
"You look incredible!" he added bluntly, a playful grin spreading across his lips. That remark took you aback but you smiled anyway, hoping that no one noticed Max's comment.
"Thanks," you responded shyly, your cheeks burning red in embarrassment as you quickly moved away from him.
"And, how have you been Mr Murphy?"Â you asked Cillian politely without making direct eye contact, simply to avoid having to further engage in a conversation with Max.Â
"Good, thank you," Cillian replied, his tone low and gravelly. "You?" he asked, his gaze flickering downwards, a ghost of a smile touching his lips.
"I'm doing alright," you assured him, allowing the silence to stretch between you just before Danielle whisked her husband away, seeking an introduction to Professor Smith from the UNESCO board.
"It has been good to see you Y/N. I am glad you are doing okay," Cillian remarked coldly while casting a sideways glance at you.Â
"You too," you nodded and watched him disappear into the throng of attendees as a strange mix of frustration and hope coursed through you, stirring up old memories and fantasies you had tried to suppress.Â
Despite your apprehension towards engaging with Cillian again however, the event progressed rather smoothly, with various speakers sharing their experiences and insights on the importance of education and literacy.Â
Cillian in particular delivered a moving speech about education and empathy, weaving together personal anecdotes, and compelling statistics that brought the audience to think of the importance of being kind to one another.
"Oh god, this is getting so old," Max murmured, standing next to you while listening to his father speak. "Didn't he say this stuff a million times before?" he asked rhetorically, rolling his eyes.
"Well, for what it is worth, I think your dad's speech is quite good and articulate," you defended Cillian, unable to help yourself despite Max's cynicism.
"Yeah, but I have heard it a hundred times before," Max countered, crossing his arms defensively.
"Fair enough," you shrugged your shoulders. "But, nevertheless, it is still relevant, isn't it?" you reasoned, raising your eyebrows. "Empathy in an education setting is important, especially nowadays, in the age of social media," you argued, catching Max's attention.
"When did you become a fucking expert on social issues like this?" Max retorted, his eyes narrowing in suspicion.
"I mean, I'm not an expert, but I know a thing or two about it," you responded coolly, turning to look at the stage where Cillian was wrapping up his speech. "I see many patients in hospital who inflicted harm upon themselves because of bullying. It is a big issue," you told Max as Cillian ended his presentation with a powerful call to action, urging everyone present to make a difference in the lives of others.
The room erupted in applause, and Cillian graciously acknowledged the support.
As the crowd dispersed, you caught him glancing at you from the speaker's podium. The intensity behind his eyes held a peculiar mixture of warmth and longing, which caused a tremble of anticipation to ripple through your entire body. With every beat of your pulse, you became increasingly drawn to this man again and, feeling increasingly overwhelmed by your emotions, you decided to step outside for some fresh air, hoping to find a moment of peace amidst the chaos.
You leaned against the wall, closing your eyes, letting the gentle breeze brush against your face for just a moment as, suddenly, you heard some footsteps.
When you opened your eyes, you saw Cillian approaching you with a questioning expression on his face.
"Need some fresh air?" he asked with a gentle smile, causing you to nod.
"Sometimes, the noise indoors gets overwhelming, doesn't it?" he continued, gesturing towards the open door. "Makes you want to retreat somewhere quiet," he added, a knowing spark lighting up his ice-blue eyes.
"Yes, exactly," you echoed, grateful for the understanding in his words.
You glanced back inside the room to check if anyone else had joined you outside. When you realized that nobody was paying attention to you and Cillian, you let out a sigh of relief.
The moment felt heavy with unspoken words and unresolved feelings. The moon hung low in the sky, casting a silver glow on the grounds. As the wind rustled through the trees, sending whispers of leaves dancing, you could feel Cillian's gaze on you. His proximity stirred a flutter in your chest, and you found yourself lost in his ice-blue eyes.
"You really enjoyed that, didn't you?" you said, finally breaking the silence.
"Enjoyed what?" he asked, puzzled by what you meant.
"Giving that speech," you clarified, biting your lip nervously. "It's empowering to see someone so passionate about something they believe in," you confessed, feeling a wave of admiration wash over you.
"Ah," Cillian nodded, his gaze flickering downward, thoughtful. "Yeah, it is something I don't mind talking about, I suppose," he said humbly, and, in that moment, his piercing blue eyes held a certain depth and maturity, making you feel drawn to him, his charisma undeniable.
"You suppose?" you giggled, unable to contain your amusement. "I thought you loved speaking in public," you teased him playfully, shaking your head in disbelief, knowing that, usually, he hated the attention.
"Well, sometimes I do," Cillian admitted, his gaze drifting away as it danced with the memory of the moments he spent addressing the audience. "But, honestly, I prefer smaller crowds," he added, shrugging his shoulders nonchalantly.
You laughed at his honesty, sensing that he felt comfortable around you. This realization made you blush, a sudden surge of warmth enveloping your entire body.
"You should consider doing more speeches like that," you encouraged him, placing your hands on his arms gently. "People listen to you because of you who are. So they're impactful," you added, locking eyes with him.
His gaze lingered on you for a moment before he smiled, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "Perhaps," he conceded, his voice barely louder than a whisper as, through the door and windows, you heard the next speaker, James, being introduced to the crowd.
"You should probably go inside and listen to your boyfriend speak," Cillian suggested, arching an eyebrow mischievously. "Or he might get jealous," he added, his lighthearted humor making you laugh.
"What makes you think that I am dating James?" you asked Cillian, a flush of heat coloring your cheeks.
"I just assumed," Cillian shrugged, his eyes flickering nervously. "You seemed close," he explained, his voice trailing off.
"He's not my type," you replied, shrugging your shoulders dismissively. "Anyway, we're just friends," you added, your voice cracking slightly.
"Well, that's good," Cillian responded, a hint of relief washing over his face. "Because I think he seems a little too arrogant for you," he then teased, causing you to furrow your brow.
"Is that so, huh?" you replied coyly, glancing at Cillian with a sheepish grin. "Well, you might be right there," you admitted, feeling a tingle of excitement course through your veins. "He is a little arrogant and I still feel somewhat drawn towards a certain kind of actor, so...," you said, your voice dropping to a hushed whisper.Â
Cillian's breath hitched and the air between you crackled with electricity, and you could hear the faint thrumming of your heartbeat echoing in your ears. The tension between you was palpable, and you knew that you were playing with fire.
"A certain kind of actor?"Â Cillian repeated, his gaze fixated on you.
"Yeah, but unfortunately he is unavailable," you added, your voice trailing off as Cillian's ice-blue eyes bore into you, a storm of emotions brewing in the depths of his pupils.
"I really miss you, you know?" Cillian whispered quietly, his voice trembling slightly. "I just cannot get you out of my fucking head," he admitted, reaching out to touch your hand, his fingertips grazing the sensitive skin lightly.
"I know," you murmured softly, leaning closer to his ear, your breath hot against his neck. "And, I wish I could say that I hate you for ending things the way you did, but I get it. I get why you did it," you confessed, your voice thick with emotion as Cillian closed his eyes, savoring the sweet sound of your voice as it resonated in his eardrums.
"Let's take a walk," you then suggested, pulling him toward the campus gardens. "I need some space to clear my head," you confessed, eager to escape the crowd and the looming threat of discovery.
"Okay," Cillian agreed hesitantly, following you through the grand entrance of another campus building, located on the other side of the greens and the parking lot.Â
"Where are we going though?" Cillian asked you cautiously, his eyes darting left and right, scanning the area warily.
"Just somewhere more private,"Â you whispered back, the scent of your perfume wafting tantalizingly under his nose. He could feel an insistent throb beginning to stir deep within his loins, straining against the confines of his trousers.
"Alright," Cillian agreed, reluctantly releasing your hand. "But remember, we can't be seen together," he reminded you sternly, his tone laced with suppressed urgency.
"Don't worry, I got this," you reassured him confidently, slipping your hand into his and intertwining your fingers with his before pulling him into the garden nursery, a small but secluded greenhouse not far from the function hall.Â
"Here," you said, stepping inside, the dimmer light of the greenhouse engulfing you both in a warm cocoon of shadows.
The greenhouse was illuminated by soft glowing lamps hanging overhead, casting eerie silhouettes on the glass panes in front of you. The smell of damp earth and decaying vegetation permeated the air, a sharp contrast to the elegant surroundings you had just left behind.
"Can you imagine what would happen if someone saw us here?" Cillian muttered nervously, his voice quivering slightly.
"No one comes in here at this hour,"Â you responded, taking a step closer to him, pressing your body up against his. "Trust me," you added seductively, tilting your head slightly to lock eyes with him.
"Are you sure?" Cillian whispered in your ear, his warm breath fanning out against your neck, sending shivers down your spine.
"Yeah," you murmured, leaning in closer, your heart pounding wildly in your chest. "Let's just enjoy this moment," you breathed onto his shoulder, gripping his hand tightly.
"For tonight, yeah," Cillian agreed, pulling you closer, his fingers tracing lines along your bare arm before, finally, he pressed his lips on to yours.Â
This time, the kiss was different - deeper, wilder, more desperate. It was almost primal as you both fell back against the nearest bench, your bodies colliding with the hard wood surface with a dull thud. Cillian pulled away from you for a second, panting heavily before gazing at you through half-lidded eyes.
"Fuck, I missed this," he gasped, his voice hoarse and strained as he traced your jawline with his fingertips delicately.
You couldn't resist the temptation any longer and kissed him back, passionately, your tongue exploring his mouth eagerly.
"Y/N," Cillian moaned, wrapping his arms around your waist tightly, pulling you even closer until you could feel his erect cock against your thigh.
You reached down, cupping his erection through his pants, and groaning in response.
"I missed this too," you panted, stroking him roughly through his trousers while he quickly unbuckled his belt.Â
"Let's get these off," he whispered hoarsely, his breathing labored as he tugged your dress up past your hips, exposing your underwear.
"Hmm, but we better be quick," you told him before reaching beneath your dress and sliding off your panties and letting them fall on to the dirt covered floor.
"Agreed," Cillian grunted as you then lowered his zipper completely and slid his jeans down to his knees.
His cock sprang free, and you immediately climbed on top of where he was sitting. You then reached down in between you to stroke the tip of his cock and guide it right to your wet pussy. He grabbed your hips and helped you lower yourself onto him while he stayed seated. Your inner muscles instantly clamped down on his hardness, and he groaned loudly as his cock disappeared inside you.
"Fuck, Y/N," he gasped, watching you carefully. "You're so tight," he complimented you, squeezing your asscheeks gently.
"Oh god," you whimpered, grinding your hips against him, enjoying the sensation of being fully impaled on his cock.
"This feels fucking amazing," you admitted, looking directly into his eyes, feeling incredibly vulnerable and exposed.
"So fucking good," you repeated, rocking your hips against him harder.
"Shh, not so loud," Cillian hissed, glancing around nervously to double-check that no one had entered the greenhouse.
"I can't help it," you pleaded, burying your face in his sweat-soaked neck while trying to muffle your cries.
Cillian groaned loudly, his grip tightening around your waist as he thrust upwards into you.
"Fuck," he hissed, his fingers digging into your flesh painfully.
The rhythmic slap of your bodies smashing together sounded harsh in the otherwise silent greenhouse.
"Tell me how good my pussy feels, Cillian!" you whimpered, grinding your hips against him while his cock twitched inside you.
"Fucking perfect," he growled, his hands now resting on your ass, squeezing it tightly. His cock slid in and out of you with practiced precision, his strokes steady and deliberate. Each thrust sent a shockwave of pleasure through your entire body, and you couldn't help but cry out in ecstasy.
"Oh god, yes," you moaned, clutching handfuls of his shirt as, suddenly, you couldn't hold it any longer.Â
Your orgasm came crashing down on you like a tidal wave, your body convulsing uncontrollably against his own.
"Fuck, fuck," you screamed, clawing at his skin desperately as you bucked your hips wildly, cumming all over his cock.
"That's it," Cillian growled, his voice strained and raspy.
"You're so fucking tight," he groaned, slamming his cock into you mercilessly, his balls slapping against your ass repeatedly.
"Jesus, I love it," he added, his grip tightening around your waist.
"I love it too," you moaned, running your fingers through his hair lovingly. The intensity of your lust and desire for each other seemed impossible to contain, yet you both reveled in the forbidden nature of your encounter.
"I've missed you so much," you whispered, your voice hoarse and ragged.
"I've missed you too," he responded, his voice cracking slightly under the weight of his emotions.
"I want you to cum inside me Cillian. Please," you begged as you rocked your hips back and forth, meeting every thrust with equal force. "Please fill me up with your cum," you whined, arching your back and throwing your head back, your hair falling down like a curtain of silk.
In response, Cillian buried his face in your neck, sucking and kissing the tender spot behind your ear. It drove you crazy, and you began to grind against him harder, feeling his length throbbing inside you as, eventually, he reached his climax too.Â
You could feel his cock pulsing, spurting jet after jet of hot sticky cum into you, filling you up completely.
"Fuck, that was amazing," you whispered breathlessly, collapsing onto top of him, your sweat-slicked skin sticking to his.
"Definitely," Cillian agreed, holding you close, your faces mere inches apart. You could sense the beating of his heart under your cheek, the warmth of his breath on your temple. In that moment, everything felt right. You felt whole until, eventually, you had to break it up and head back to the function, which is where Danielle was already looking for her husband.
"Where have you been?" she asked him as you both returned separately, through different entrances.Â
"I just needed some air after the speech," Cillian told her casually as he reached for a drink while Danielle gracefully pulled a leaf from his hair.
"Some air?"Â Danielle arched an eyebrow skeptically as she fixed Cillian with a scrutinizing gaze. "Okay," she added, brushing the stray strands of hair off his forehead, which is when she noticed a stain on the collar of his otherwise pristine white shirt.Â
She squinted suspiciously, her lips curling into a thin line as she spotted what appeared to be some make up. Red lipstick mixed with a stain of foundation.Â
To be continued...
