How to reduce tan on face

Reducing tan on your face can take time and consistent effort. To reduce tan on your face, you need to follow a consistent skincare routine and be patient, as it may take some time to see noticeable results.

So, let’s see How to reduce tan on face. Here are some tips to help you gradually reduce tan on your face:

Sunscreen:

Always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 to your face before going outside. Reapply every two hours, especially if you're outdoors for an extended period. Sunscreen helps prevent further tanning and skin damage.

Protective Clothing:

Wear a wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, and protective clothing to shield your face from the sun's harmful UV rays.

Stay in the Shade:

When possible, stay in the shade, particularly during peak sun hours (10 a.m. to 4 p.m.).

Sunscreen Makeup:

Use makeup products that contain SPF for added protection.

Exfoliation:

Gently exfoliate your face 1-2 times a week to remove dead skin cells. This can help lighten the tan over time. Avoid excessive scrubbing, which can irritate the skin.

Lemon Juice:

Apply fresh lemon juice to your face. The natural bleaching properties of lemon can help lighten the skin. Be cautious if you have sensitive skin, as lemon juice can be drying.

Yogurt and Turmeric Mask:

Mix plain yogurt with a pinch of turmeric and apply it to your face. Turmeric has skin-brightening properties.

Aloe Vera:

Apply a thin layer of aloe vera gel to your face. Aloe vera can soothe the skin and help reduce the appearance of tan.

Cucumber:

Apply cucumber slices or cucumber juice to your face. Cucumber has a cooling and lightening effect on the skin.

Oatmeal Mask:

Make a paste with oatmeal and water and gently apply it to your face. Oatmeal can exfoliate and lighten the skin.

Potato:

Rub a slice of raw potato on your face. Potato contains natural bleaching agents that can help lighten the skin.

Hydration:

Drink plenty of water and moisturize your face regularly. Well-hydrated skin recovers more quickly.

Vitamin C Serum:

Consider using a vitamin C serum, which can help reduce the appearance of tan and improve overall skin tone.

Professional Treatments:

If the tan is severe or persistent, you may consider professional treatments such as chemical peels, microdermabrasion, or laser therapy. Consult a dermatologist for personalized advice.

Remember that reducing tan on your face takes time, and you should be patient and consistent in your efforts. It's also crucial to protect your skin from future sun exposure to prevent further tanning and skin damage.

If you need to remove tan from your face immediately for a temporary fix, you can use makeup or cosmetic products to conceal the tan lines. 

Let’s see how to remove tan from face immediately. Here's a quick way to cover up tan on your face:

Use a High-Coverage Foundation or Concealer:

Choose a full-coverage foundation or concealer that matches your skin tone or is slightly lighter if you want to brighten the area.

Apply the foundation or concealer to your face, focusing on the areas with tan.

Blend it thoroughly for a seamless finish.

Setting Powder:

To ensure the makeup stays in place, lightly dust a setting powder over the concealed areas.

Setting Spray:

Finish with a setting spray to help the makeup last longer.

Avoid Sun Exposure:

Once you've covered up the tan, it's essential to avoid sun exposure to prevent further tanning.

Please note that these methods provide temporary solutions for concealing tan lines and do not permanently remove the tan. To address tan lines more permanently, you should follow the natural remedies and preventive measures mentioned in the previous response over a more extended period.

Possessing Jake

Jake was a tan, hot, and muscular 25 year old jock. He was the definition of sexy and manliness, and he knew it. Jake had chiseled 6 pack abs, huge pecs, and bulging biceps. While at the gym, Jake finished his rigorous workout and walked to the locker room confidently, proud of his day’s lift.

As Jake stripped off his drenched clothes, he lifted his sweaty skin tight shirt to his nose and took a deep whiff. “Ahh the smell of a real man” he smirked. He continued to undress at his locker.

Little did he know, a symbiote in the form of goo was watching him intently from the shadows. The goo was in need of a body and was looking for an alpha male worthy of being its host.

The goo crept closer, its amorphous form shifting and pulsating. The goo knew it would be better to have a willing host so it can make its new host it’s permanent vessel, so it had to convince him. Once it was behind Jake, the goo started growing and forming into the shape of a towering, muscular, and chiseled man. The goo remained made up completely of goo. The goo had a broad frame and bulging muscles that were even bigger than Jake’s. Between his legs, the goo sported a 10” cock and big balls.

Jake finished removing his jock strap and turned around with eyes widened with excitement. He felt a mixture of feelings including confusion and excitement seeing the goo man. “Who the fuck are you?!” Jake asked. “I am looking for a host to contain my form, being a vessel for all my strength and power.” the Goo said, while puffing his chest and flexing his huge arms. Jake was eyeing up the goo’s impressive form, feeling small compared to him. He felt a sense of jealousy and admiration for the goo.

“Damn dude you’re huge. So you are looking to give a guy all your big muscles and strength?” he asked. “Yes, the host I bond with will get all of my body and more.” the goo told him. Jake looked at the goo man’s huge cock. Jake already had a big dick, but he was impressed by the girth and length of the goo’s.

The idea of possessing even more impressive muscles and having that cock added to his own thrilled Jake. The goo noticed Jake’s curiosity and stepped forward so he was right in front of him with the tips of their cocks touching. Jake reached out his hand and started touching the goo’s biceps, feeling the tone and definition. Jake pressed his body more against the goo’s and they both flexed together, rubbing their bodies and feeling each other’s. Jake ran his hands over the goo man's solid, glistening muscles, feeling the strength that radiated from them. Jake was getting hard at the idea and decided he wanted all the goo’s mass inside him and added to his body. He couldn’t stand the thought of the goo offering itself to another guy, he wanted it. It was as if the goo man's presence was igniting something primal in him, awakening desires he didn't even know he had.

“Give me your muscles," Jake whispered, a sense of power coursing through him. “You agree to let me bond with you?” the goo smiled. Jake took a step back and opened his arms wide and confidently declared “Take my body, it’s all yours”. The goo smirked and said “MY body”. The biggest smile formed on Jake’s face as he was bursting with anticipation for the goo’s mass to enter him. “Open wide” the goo commanded of his new vessel.

Jake opened his mouth and the goo started flowing into his body, filling out every part of him. He gasped as he sensed his muscles expanding, his body growing more powerful by the second. His legs instantly grew to thick proportions, Jake groaned as he felt the goo’s cock start sliding into his own, making it rock hard and a new huge 12”. The goo’s abs pushed against his own, turning them into a rock hard 8 pack. Next Jake’s pecs ballooned up to the biggest pecs he has ever seen. Jake looked at the mirror and saw the goo entering his body. He noticed how defined and muscular his body is growing to with the goo entering him. He couldn’t wait any longer and started gulping the goo down to help it enter its new host. His arms tripled in size as he felt the goo’s biceps sliding into his own, as if his body was being put on like a glove by an even more alpha male than himself. It made him so excited to be the vessel for such an alpha, manly mass.

The symbiote bonded with his muscular fibers, enhancing his already impressive physique. It was as if the goo was fulfilling Jake's deepest desires for strength and dominance, but also to be dominated. The goo finished entering Jake’s body and he was pushed back into his locker, with his back hitting it. He stretched his arms up and wide, feeling incredibly filled. He was captivated by the sensation of power under his fingertips, an anticipation building within him. Jake flexed his newfound muscles, admiring the raw power at his disposal. He raised his arm to his nose and took a deep whiff of his hairy armpit, relishing the stronger musky scent that emanated from his body. “Ahhh fuck yeah, I’m the ultimate alpha”. A cocky grin crossed his face as he reveled in his new, muscular form.

The goo was still adjusting in his body and was now starting to move up his neck. Jake felt pressure in his neck moving upward and he started thinking about the goo taking full control of his body. He felt a mixture of awe and submission, a thrilling surrender to the symbiote's power. “Come on man, give me all of it! Make us the strongest man there is.” Jake shouted. Jake knew he was going to lose control of his body, but he was so excited for it. Any hesitation was gone, as he wanted to be dominated and watch his sexy, muscular body be controlled by the only man more of an alpha than him.

Jake's consciousness began to blur. He could feel himself slipping into the back seat of his own mind, while the goo man took over the driver's seat. A sense of euphoria washed over him as he realized that the goo had chosen his body over all the others in the gym. He reveled in the thought that the goo recognized his unparalleled masculinity.

Jake’s head stretched upward and then lowered back to normal, with a big sexy grin forming on his face. The goo was now fully in control of Jake’s body, with Jake being aware but only able to watch and feel his body, which felt incredible. As the goo man flexed Jake's newfound muscles, an overwhelming feeling of pride surged within Jake. The goo admired his reflection in the gym mirrors, his cocky grin a testament to the combination of both Jake and the goo’s cocky personnas. Jake relished the feeling of the goo coursing through his veins, controlling every movement, every breath.

With newfound confidence, the goo man spoke through Jake's lips, his voice dripping with arrogance. "What a rush! Fuck, I am a stud inside you, Jake. Thanks for the body, bro.” he declared, his words laced with a blend of cockiness and satisfaction. Jake’s body had willingly welcomed and accepted the goo, allowing every part of their combined bodies to bond. The goo, mimicking Jake’s whiff of his manly armpit earlier, raised his new arm up and deeply inhaled his other hairy pit. It now had an even stronger and muskier smell. “It’s cause I’m the alpha now, with two of us inside together.” the goo said. The goo continued to inspect his new rock hard physical body, touching and caressing every crevice like him and Jake were doing before. He felt his huge cock and shuttered at the ecstasy, massaging it.

After admiring his reflection, the goo man's attention turned toward the showers. He strode confidently toward the tiled room, his enhanced body glistening with a fine sheen of sweat. The powerful water jets cascaded over him, washing away the grime of the workout. Jake's body moved with a fluid grace, every movement a testament to the symbiote's control.

In the showers, the goo man ran his hands over his new body, relishing in the sensation of every contour, every ripple of muscle. His touch was exploratory, appreciative of the masterpiece he now possessed. As steam billowed around him, the goo man reveled in the musky scent of manliness that enveloped the space.

Jake's mind lingered in the background, an observer to the sensations and experiences that the goo man was indulging in. He had become a vessel for the goo's dominance, his former self now intertwined with the confidence and swagger of the goo man's persona.

The dress

"Try it on" Keri said as I held up her wedding dress.

"What?" Did I hear her correctly. I looked at her with a questioning expression.

"OH go ahead, I know you want to" Keri continued. How did she know? I thought. She took the dress from me.

"Come on strip, let's see how it fits you" she smiled.

"Keri, I" I started she just put her finger to my lips.

"Nope, no lies. Now try it on" she held the dress as I removed my shirt and pants. She held it as I stepped into it. I didn't say a word as she buttoned me into the dress.

"You look gorgeous" she laughed. Having me turn. It was a full length prince's dress. Off the shoulders. With a beaded chest.

"Need to take this in a bit and maybe let out the waist some. Or just make you lose 5 pounds." She said as she pulled the top. And smothed the sides. I was excited as she fussed over me.

"Are you going to make a mess in your pants?" She teased as she saw my expression. "You better not get any on the dress" she warned. As she said that her mother walked in the room. Where did she come from we where home alone I thought.

"Now we will get you some false breast to hold this up" Keri told me. I just stared at her mother as she too started to fuss over the dress.

"Of course we will get you something special to wear underneath for after" Linda my future mother in law told me.

"He needs a proper fitting" Linda told Keri.

"I know mom. But I didn't want him freaking out in the dress shop" Keri told her.

"Okay let's take this off before you do make a mess" Keri told me. The two woman helped me out if the dress.

"He is much too hairy" Linda laughed.

"I know mom one step at a time" Keri shot back. I was still in shock.But my dick was hard and poking straight out at my mother in law.

"What is it mommy's bit tits" Keri laughed as she pulled down my boxer briefs. Exposing me to her mother.

"He is quite small isn't he" Linda commented.

"Yes, he is that's why I have lovers mom" Keri admitted. I had long suspected she cheated on me but never had the nerve to ask.

"Go ahead baby, play with yourself" Keri giggled. "That's what you do isn't it. Wear my clothes and play with yourself when I am out late" Keri teased. "You never asked, did you think I was working? Or did you know I was fucking everyone you know" Keri continued.

"Come on play with it in front of my mother" Keri teased. I was so embarrassed but wanted to cum as well that I started to jerk off. I used two fingers. And finished in under a minute. Keri caught my cum in her hand.

"I don't even have to force him mom" she held her hand to my mouth to show her.

"I know you like cum. I have video of you licking up your own. And you have eaten dozens of men's cum out of my pussy. You must of known" Keri said. I couldn't look at her but licked my cum fron her hand. Normally I would just taste it but Keri made me eat it all.

Keri had me stand there naked and confess every dirty secret to her and her mother. She knew everything already though. She showed me videos to prove it.

"You are going to wear this dress when we get married next month. And you will take on the submissive role in our marriage" Keri explained. Keri and her mother spent the next two weeks. Preparing me. First was hair removal. Permanent hair removal from my nose down. It was expensive and took several embarrassing trios to have it all done. She also locked me in a chastity cage. Had my asshole bleached. And my body tanned. My hair styled. My ears pierced, as well as my nipples, belly button, and balls. My nails where extended and polished pink. Alot of my friends freaked out and cut ties with me. Including the best man. Keri found me a replacement the same day. It was her current lover.

My sister also a bridesmaid. And really my only close family embraced the new me with open arms. As her sister.

Linda spent time with me, explaining what my role was to be as her daughter's sissy wife.

I was not to argue or complain ever. Just obey Keri.

I was never to expect sex. I just wasn't built for that

I was to take care of Keri, cook and clean for her. Be there for what ever she needed.

My wardrobe changed as well although I now only wore panties. Skimpy sexy ones at that usually in bright colors and designs. But also a bra all the time. My casual clothes all had soft features. Pink shirts, or tight jeans. Mixed with woman's leggings, blouses, even slacks with no pockets and side zipper. There where a two dresses. Long and bright flower prints. But Keri only had me wear them at home when we had company. Not that anything else I wore wasn't less embarrassing.

Keri also let me know that I would be a virgin bride. But she planned on correcting that on our wedding night. Keri had made no secret of any of this. She exposed me to everyone. Even started social media pages on several sites so people could follow my progress. It had only been three weeks and there was no trace of my former life.

"I wrote your vows for you" Keri said one night as she came home late. She grabbed my ass and kissed me. Then handed me the paper.

"I swear to love, honor, cherish, obey, worship, and serve Keri in sickness and in health. I swear to be faithful. While encouraging Keri not to be, I swear to remain subservient to her. Keeping myself physically fit and free of outside influences. I swear to agree with her always and never argue" I readoutlook.

"Keri i dont think i can do this" I broke down crying.

"You are so emotional" Keri giggled pulling me to her chest.

"Why don't we go to the bedroom" she took my hand and led me. She stripped me down to my bra and panties. Then undressed herself as I stood and watched.

"Now come lick my pussy" she told me. As soon as my tounge touched her I got a glob of cum on my tounge. Without a word I swallowed it.

"You are so good at that" Keri said her hands running thru my hair. "I was thinking we could start you on hormones, and discuss getting you some breast implants" Keri told me. As she came on ,y tounge she pushed out the last of her lovers seed. I cleaned it all up.

Keri moved me into the guest bedroom, she had it completely set up for me with a walkin closet and vanity table.although I still slept with her most nights. She wanted me to be comfortable if she bought home a man.

An excerpt from - Chapter 1: Lucky Day

A whinny drew Averyll’s attention away from his story. He looked over his shoulder in Laurën’s direction and gasped softly seeing a figure approaching. A lot of thoughts happened at once: he was naked and vulnerable on a secluded beach, and that man looked much larger and stronger than him and would easily be able to overpower him in a physical fight. His heart started pounding as he decided if the man meant any ill will Averyll would send a wave of dissonant whisper and wildshape into a swallow. That should give him enough time to escape harm. He regarded the approaching figure with wide, meadow-green eyes. 

“Nice horse,” the man said, earning an indignant snort from Laurën. 

“Thank…you…” Averyll replied, his tone unsure, though his voice was smooth and melodious- almost feminine.

Confident strides brought the man forward even closer, his tongue licking at the edges of his teeth as he adjusted the visible bulge in his dark skin-tight leathers. He wore a black lightweight traveling cloak with the hood pulled down over a sleeveless dark cotton shirt that opened down the chest, and simple leather bracers and boots. He unfastened his cloak and let it fall revealing large, strong arms and medium-length blonde hair, swept back and out of his face. Gods, he was handsome- his pretty face and smaller pointed ears hinted at half-elf heritage, like Averyll himself. Though this man was much broader. And where Averyll’s body was fair and covered in freckles, his was a rich tan and covered in vicious-looking scars.

His hands moved to his belt, which he unbuckled with deft fingers. A pair of golden, fox-like eyes smoldered down to Averyll’s as he removed the belt and its attached twin shortswords and let them fall as well. His voice was deep, a rumbling purr that oozed power and authority even though he spoke softly.

“What are you doing out here like that?” 

Averyll was practically holding his breath, though his cheeks and tips of his ears flushed pink as the man continued his approach. He removed his weapons, why? Fuck. He was gorgeous. He nipped his bottom lip and tented his book on the blanket, but didn’t break their heated gaze. 

“I… went for a swim and was drying some before getting dressed… It’s a lovely day.” 

The man’s eyes narrowed and his lips curved into a rakish smirk as he tugged his shirt off over the back of his head. His body could have been chiseled by Sune herself, and Averyll’s eye contact broke to rove over with appreciation, licking his lips as he noted how the cut of his hips angled right down to his cock, which was already hard and pressing urgently against his tight leather pants. 

He lowered down to his knees and straddled Averyll’s ass, sweeping damp auburn curls away from his neck. A low growl rumbled at the back of his throat as he noticed the blooming rose and buds tattooed on the side of Averyll’s neck. Ducking down he laid a wet open mouth kiss over that tattoo, tracing the lines with the point of his tongue, tasting the sea salt that had dried on the other man’s silky skin. Was it art or something more sentimental that he committed to permanence on his body? Was he cool and calm when the needle pierced his skin to fill it with ink? Angelus’ mouth tightened to suck on his flowers, hungry.

A kittenish little moan left Averyll’s lips, mind going blank as his mouth went dry. 

“Heh,” the other man chuffed, his tongue tracing the line of Averyll’s jaw to his short pointed ear, earning a louder moan. He took a deep inhale, the warm summer scent of Averyll’s skin filling his head like a hit of dragon’s dust.

“I can smell it all over you. You’ll let anyone in as long as you get fucked.”

Averyll arched his back, pressing his ass against the man’s bulge. This was foolish, reckless, and the type of thing that one read in trashy beach novels. He opened his mouth to respond but only a gasp rose in his throat. After a moment he found his voice and it was soft and soaked in desire, “Yes…” Averyll agreed, shame burning in his cheeks, and his ears, and the tip of his stone-hard dick. 

“Well then,” Angelus purred, curling his tongue lasciviously in Averyll’s ear, “It’s your lucky day.”

[honora-antares]

WIP I'm getting close to finishing! So here's another snipet of my OC Antares Black in Of Foxtails and Antlers. Link to its Prologue at the end!

A deathly silence spread throughout the open field, and despite the growing heat of summer, a cold freeze settled over. A cold so frigid, frost had begun to accumulate over green grass starting from where Antares had stopped dead in her tracks after Marlene’s slight.

“What did you call me?”

“The bitch is deaf, too, it seems.”

“Marlene!”

“Ah, so she dared.” Replied Antares as she started to remove blue robes followed by a copper tie. Confusion arose when she then started to unbutton her plaid waistcoat, an uneasiness tension as it joined the growing pile of clothes on the frosty ground. And when she moved to unbutton her dress shirt, Sirius spoke, cutting through the silence that no one else dared interrupt.

“Antares, dont.”

“They have grown too familiar with you, Orion. Tell me, do your friends think that because I'm not a Slytherin that it makes me like you? She will pay for her slander.” Once Antares removed her shirt, collective gasps and loud whispers escaped closed lips. White cotton replaced tanned flesh and horrific—deep—red scars. Three jagged marks over both her shoulders, down the back of her right upper arm was another set of marks, running through her elbow and to the wrist. Her back, what could be seen given Antares still wore her vest, bore five lesions in the area between spine and head. And when she turned, a massive burnt scar spread over her chest. Her skin leathery and uneven and so red it's as if whatever flame had caused it was permanently caught inside the thickness of it.

It was unexpected. For such a beauty, a member of a prestigious house, to be marred in such viciousness. Such savagery.

James has seen those kinds of scars before. Knows that the only way Antares could be left scarred as she is was because no amount of wiggenweld, dittany, nor any other magical healing potions could ever help in getting rid of them.

He knew, and when he turned to Peter, he knew that he'd understood, too. Sirius… did not react like the rest; he must've known already.

He's afraid. James noticed the way he had put himself between Marlene and his cousin, so when Antares took a step closer, he unclasped his wand, pointing it towards her. “Don’t.”

“You will step aside, Orion.”

“I can't. You know I can't.”

“Sirius, what the hell! I don't need you to shield me away, I can take care of it myself.”

“I know you can Mars, but not against her.”

“Do it.” Antares commanded, and Sirius’s twisted wand went flying across the frozen field, right into Castor's hands. Instantly, Marlene takes out her own wand, a beautiful dark brown rod. Not a second later, it too flew to Antares' own hand. She threw it to the ground, breaking through the thin layer of ice as it impaled the soft earth below before burying it in its entirety with a stomp of her foot. Taking another step forward, she extended both arms out in front of her, hands in a snapping position as she regarded her brothers behind her.

“Make sure no one intervenes.” Twin snaps ricochet a burning blue dome that throws everyone away, leaving Antares, Sirius, and Marlene inside the half sphere. Castor tosses away Sirius’s wand and gets a hold of his own, left hand pointing towards the shield his sister had created as wisps of blue and white shoot out. His right hand glows in grey as it's positioned next to his head, a mimic of how one is supposed to stand before a duel. Next to him, a perfect mirror of each other, stands his brother, Pollux.

drabbles or hc of fast and furious au jiara??👀👀

enjoy!🤠idk what this is but wkebkdwebfbjw

...

“I know what you’re doing and it’s not working.”

Kiara raised her brows, lifting her head to look at the blond who stood a couple of feet away from her. He had abandoned his shirt long ago, his tanned chest stained with grease stains and the wrench he was twirling between his fingers drew her attention for a few moments. 

She removed the lollipop from between her lips. “What am I doing?”

He let out a groan, the car he was working on now the last thing on his mind as he made his way towards her. Before she could even react, he was pulling her into his chest and quickly pushing down the hood of her car at once. 

“I was working on that,” she murmured with a small huff, raising the lollipop to her lips. 

“You were being a fucking tease, baby,” he grumbled as his head fell to the crook of her neck. His thick arms wound around her torso, keeping her back pressed against his chest. “How much longer are you gonna hold this over me?”

“A bet is a bet, Jay,” she said with a casual shrug of her shoulders. 

“Yeah but I didn’t think you were serious about a sex ban,” he grumbled, tightening his grip on her. 

“Shouldn’t have lost the race then,” she said, though her amusement was thick in her voice. 

He had brought this upon himself and both of them were very aware of that. She had told him time and time again before the last meetup that he needed to stop biting any bait that was hung in front of him. JJ—ever the competitive egotistic mess he was—ignored her. 

She had said to him that if he lost any of the races, they were on a sex ban. 

JJ just smirked at her. 

And now, two weeks later, he was still suffering.

“It’s been weeks,” he muttered, his lips tracing along her neck and down her shoulders. She only had a tank and pair of shorts on, the heat of the garage not really allowing anything else. “You gotta be suffering too, baby.” 

“Don’t you worry about me, big boy,” she drawled and lightly tapped his arms. “I can keep myself satisfied just fine.” 

“Not as well as I could,” he whispered, his voice dropping as his lips brushed against her ear. 

“I don’t know,” she mused, biting back her smirk. “I think I could get used to it being a permanent—

She didn’t even have a chance to finish her sentence before she was spun around, hands on her thighs lifting her until she was on the hood of her car. She looked at the boy with raised brows but he was already tugging her shorts down her legs. 

“Permanent, my ass,” he grumbled, the sound of fabric ripping as he tore her panties away before she could even bat his hands away. “Gonna fuck you pretty on your own fucking car, baby, and then we are gonna race and put this stupid ban to and end. Got it?” 

Kiara only grinned, pulling him closer by his belt loops and wrapping her legs around his waist. “Fuck me good, pretty boy, and I’ll blow you on the way home.”

Editing update!

30,209 words rewritten. Approximately 23% of the way through draft two!

Things changed so far: addition of a short rags to riches plotline (with a very unwilling rags); Kiris now doesn't trust Aris in the slightest; the yarlyk (the thing they're all competing for) is mentioned before chapter 30; general worldbuilding shown more; the journal thing is also explained before chapter 30; Kiris and Iiriok know each other well enough to lightly banter, with it being heavily implied that Iiriok knows Kiris has learned magic (forbidden for princes); 'L Tuola Turre is introduced pre-chapter 17ish; Batar is introduced via murder.

Have a deleted first draft scene for getting through that paragraph!

WC: 547

Original location and context: chapter nine, just after Kiris arrives in Tesendi, but before the official start of the Turre's Competition. Aris and the guards have been trying to get an uncooperative Kiris ready for his first appearance as prince of Strauv, to little success.

(first speaker is Aris)

“I meant no disrespect.”

Kiris’ throat felt too sticky to do anything, and he shrugged, clenching his hands over his arms despite all the layers of fabric.

“You must understand, my prince, that you are as I have said. What you are only seeing now, we have seen in you since Prince Nelovskevouk’s recoronation. You are—and will continue to be—a credit to Strauv.” All the words were there, all of them in the right place, but when Kiris finally dragged his eyes from the curtains Aris’ gaze was focused on how tight Kiris had crossed his arms. “My prince,” he continued, slowly, “is there something else I should know about?”

“I tried to escape the night of the bandits,” Kiris said, flippantly. He had to distract him. He scoffed, and it felt forced and painful. “If Nelovskevouk hadn’t been there I would have.”

A twitch in Aris’ brow. “I know.”

Kiris nodded, but his hands were clammy. He withdrew them and curled them into fists, because he didn’t want to stain the fabric in fear. “I’ll try again.”

“I know.”

He huffed. “Then why bother?”

Aris’ eyes were soft green, rimmed in brown, his brow weary with time. Salt peppered his hair, not streaking it grey, but still showing the threads of the years he had seen. His skin was Novgor pale but sun-weathered, and a permanent tan-line from his helmet striped his nose. How long, Kiris wondered, has he been in Martarez’s service?

“Just as Prince Nazvili is my prince, so, too, are you. It is my job to keep you safe. Where you go—wherever it may be—I follow. No matter the circumstance. Do you understand?”

Kiris smiled. “I understand.” It wasn’t kind, and he didn’t pretend it was. Here was his captor, the keys to freedom secured to his belt. “I have a duty to Strauv,” he said, stepping away from the window. “I have worth. It’s your job to see that I remain useful.”

“If that is how you choose to understand it, my prince.”

“There is no ‘choice,’” Kiris snapped. “It’s how it is. If I can’t be of service to someone, somehow, then I’m selfish. Worthless. And I’ve been damned too long for a good person like you to allow it to continue.”

No one had a good response when he proclaimed it for what it was. He was the Prophet; what he saw was truth. That’s all he was good for.

Aris pushed himself to his feet as if it hurt him to do so even though he was spry as any of the other guards. “My prince,” he said, carefully and tightly, and somehow so, so worn, “I fear you will be late to dinner if we delay any longer.”

Just another captor in a long line of captors. Kiris didn’t bother fixing his expression before stepping from behind the partition into the rest of his sleeping quarters. The tunic was his Temple robe; the circlet his shackles, burning into his arms from being tightened too much, again, just a little too far, each day, a quarter turn more until he repented. Until he became useful.

What more could dinner hold, that forced Prophecy hadn’t already made him face?

At least he would have worth again.

Snippet of 'Teach Me Tonight '

Pursing her lips and putting on her sternest expression, Rory pushes the door open and steps inside the pool room, the warm, humid air and strong smell of chlorine immediately engulfing her, the lights above dimly lit.

There’s someone in the pool and they’re just doing laps back and forth. Rory doesn’t know much about swimming outside of what she watches during the Olympics, but whoever is swimming seems to be pretty good – good speed, strokes cutting smoothly through the water. But that doesn’t erase the fact that whoever this is shouldn’t be here in the first place. Thus, drawing in a deep breath, Rory squares her shoulders. “Hey!” she yells as loud as she can (which, admittedly, is really loud – benefits of having Luke as her step-dad). “Get out of the pool!”

It takes a moment, but the person in the pool stops and turns in the water to look over at the intrusion, hands reaching up to remove a pair of goggles. “Rory?”

Rory’s brow furrows at the familiar address, but a split second later, she recognizes the voice. “Jess?”

In the pool, Jess grins as he removes his goggles, other hand coming up to slick his hair back away from his face. “What are you doing here? Also, you can yell really loud by the way.”

For a moment, Rory doesn’t know what to say as Jess ducks beneath the swim lane dividers and heads for the ladder out of the pool that’s only a few feet away from her. But she recovers her voice as Jess’s hands reach out for the handles of the ladder. “I’m helping set up for the bake sale. Apparently, there’s a folding table in the supply closet, but-” Rory loses the capacity for words as Jess steps out of the pool and she fully notices just how much Jess isn’t wearing.

“God, the Olsen twins managed to rope you into helping them out?” Jess asks as he steps all the way out of the water and heads for the nearby bleachers where, as Rory dimly notices, there’s a duffle bag and a towel. Rory thinks she might permanently have lost the ability to speak as she stares at Jess. He’s wearing tight swim shorts…and literally nothing else, exposing the form that hides beneath button downed shirts and pressed slacks.

And he’s beautiful. All muscular and soft, tanned skin filled with freckles, Rory can’t stop looking at the lines of his torso, the sweep of his shoulders, the taper of his waist. And, god, she almost whimpers as he leans down to grab the towel, the muscles of his back shifting as he reaches, the smooth ripple of his shoulder blades moving beneath his skin. Jess runs the towel over his chest and arms before running it over his hair, turning towards her at the same time. The move gives Rory the opportunity to ogle his bare chest, taking in his flawlessly smooth chest, the gently defined muscle of his pecs (he’s definitely a 6-pack abs guy), where on his left one, there’s what looks to be a tattoo on the space where his heart should be; the smooth, flawless skin of his abdomen, the hollows of his hips.

Rory’s seen a lot of shirtless men, including those at Lane’s and Paris’s bachelorette parties, her exes and casual hook-ups - men whose bodies put models to shame, who women ogled and drooled over all the time. And none of them have ever affected her in the way that Jess has. Her entire body flushes with warmth, heat pooling in her veins, her heart racing and thumping in her chest. God, she just wants to reach out and touch, wants to trail her fingers over every inch of exposed skin, to map a path for her mouth to follow, to find what makes him sigh and moan and laugh. She wants it all, more than she’s ever wanted anything in her entire life.

“Rory?” The towel drapes around Jess’s shoulders, but Rory’s still mostly paying attention to his half naked body. “Hey, Rory, my eyes are up here.” The words are spoken with good humour, but they’re enough to shock Rory out of the stupor she’s in.

What are the main aftercare tips for great microblading results?

If you’re considering Microblading Treatment, you’re likely already envisioning perfect, effortlessly full eyebrows that frame your face beautifully. At Reflection Facethetics Clinic in Bangalore, under the skilled hands of Dr. Deepika, you’ll be guided through a transformative process designed to enhance your natural beauty. However, achieving the best results from your microblading session requires more than just choosing the right clinic and technician. Proper aftercare is crucial to ensure that your new brows heal well and look stunning for months to come. Here’s a detailed guide on how aftercare tips for microblading after your appointment to ensure optimal results.

Understanding the Microblading Healing Process

Microblading involves depositing pigment into the upper layers of the skin using a handheld tool with fine needles. This semi-permanent tattooing technique creates the appearance of fuller, more defined eyebrows. Post-procedure, your brows go through several healing stages, which typically include initial redness and swelling, followed by scabbing and peeling. Understanding this process helps in preparing for effective aftercare.

Aftercare Tips for Microblading

1. Avoid Getting Your Brows Wet

In the first week following your microblading appointment, it is crucial to keep your brows dry. Water can interfere with the pigment settling into your skin properly. Avoid activities that will cause excessive sweating, like intense workouts or hot showers. When washing your face, use a gentle cleanser and avoid direct contact with your eyebrows.

2. Follow the Cleaning Instructions

Dr. Deepika and her team at Reflection Facethetics Clinic will provide you with specific instructions on how to clean your brows. Typically, you’ll need to gently cleanse the area with a mild, non-alcoholic cleanser and a clean, soft cloth. This helps to remove any residual pigment and prevents infection while maintaining the clarity of the pigment.

3. Apply Healing Ointments

You will likely be advised to apply a healing ointment or cream to your brows. This helps to moisturize the area and prevent scabbing, which can affect the final look of your brows. Use only the ointment recommended by Dr. Deepika, as some over-the-counter products may contain ingredients that can irritate or negatively affect the healing process.

4. Avoid Picking or Scratching

As your brows heal, you might notice scabbing or peeling. It’s essential to resist the urge to pick or scratch at your brows. This can cause pigment loss and uneven healing. Instead, allow the scabs to fall off naturally and continue applying your healing ointment to soothe the area.

5. Stay Away from Sun Exposure

Direct sun exposure can fade your microblading results and irritate the healing skin. For the first few weeks, avoid sunbathing or using tanning beds. When going outside, wear a hat or use a high-SPF sunscreen on the surrounding skin (but not directly on the brows) to protect your delicate skin.

6. Avoid Heavy Makeup

For the initial healing period, avoid applying heavy makeup or brow products over your new microblading. This includes brow pencils, powders, or gels. These products can clog the hair follicles and interfere with the healing process. Instead, let your brows breathe and heal naturally.

7. Maintain a Healthy Diet and Hydration

What you eat can influence your skin’s healing process. Ensure you’re consuming a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals, especially those known for promoting skin health like vitamin C and E. Staying hydrated also helps keep your skin and the microbladed area healthy.

8. Monitor for Any Signs of Infection

While rare, infections can occur. Keep an eye out for signs of infection such as excessive redness, swelling, or pus. If you notice any unusual symptoms or if the healing process doesn’t seem to be progressing normally, contact Dr. Deepika at Reflection Facethetics Clinic immediately for advice.

Conclusion

Microblading can be a game-changer for your beauty routine, providing you with natural-looking, well-defined brows that enhance your facial features. However, to ensure that you enjoy the best results, adhering to aftercare instructions is imperative. At Reflection Facethetics Clinic in Bangalore, Dr. Deepika and her team are dedicated to guiding you through both the procedure and the aftercare process, ensuring your brows look impeccable and heal beautifully.

Ready to transform your brows and enjoy a hassle-free beauty routine? Book your Microblading appointment at Reflection Facethetics Clinic today and let Dr. Deepika help you achieve the flawless, natural-looking eyebrows you’ve always dreamed of.

The Ultimate Guide to Laser Hair Removal in Calgary: Embrace Smooth, Hair-Free Skin!

In the quest for silky-smooth, hair-free skin, more and more Calgarians are turning to laser hair removal as a long-lasting solution. Gone are the days of battling with razors, wax strips, or painful epilators.

With advanced technology paving the way, laser hair removal offers a convenient and effective alternative. If you’re contemplating whether this treatment is the right choice for you, here's everything you need to know about laser hair removal in Calgary.

Understanding Laser Hair Removal

Laser hair removal involves using concentrated light beams (lasers) to target and destroy hair follicles. The pigment in the follicles absorbs the light, which then converts to heat, ultimately damaging the follicle and inhibiting future hair growth. This technology has evolved significantly over the years, making it more effective and accessible than ever.

Why Choose Laser Hair Removal?

1. Long-term Results: Unlike shaving or waxing, where hair returns within days or weeks, laser hair removal can drastically reduce hair growth, leading to permanent reduction over time.

2. Cost-Effective: While the upfront cost might be higher than buying razors or wax, the long-term expense of laser hair removal often balances out since the need for regular treatments diminishes.

3. Time-Saving: Laser treatments can be quick (depending on the area treated), and since hair grows back thinner and less frequently, you'll spend less time on your daily hair removal routine.

4. Precision and Effectiveness: Lasers can selectively target dark, coarse hairs while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged. Plus, improvements in technology have made treatment effective across different skin tones and hair types.

Choosing the Right Clinic in Calgary

Calgary boasts a variety of clinics offering laser hair removal, each claiming to be the best. Here’s how to make a smart choice:

1. Research Credentials: Ensure that the clinic has qualified and experienced professionals. Look for clinics with certified dermatologists or licensed technicians trained specifically in laser treatments.

2. Technology Matters: The type of laser technology used affects the effectiveness and safety of your treatment. Popular choices include the Alexandrite, Diode, and Nd:YAG lasers, each suited for different skin and hair types.

3. Check Reviews: Client testimonials and reviews can provide insights into the effectiveness of the treatments and the overall customer service experience.

4. Consultation is Key: A good clinic will offer a consultation before your first session. This is crucial for assessing your skin and hair type, discussing your expectations, and understanding the procedure, risks, and aftercare.

What to Expect During the Treatment

1. Pre-Treatment Care: You’ll be advised to avoid plucking, waxing, and electrolysis for six weeks prior to treatment. The skin should be as natural as possible, free from tans and burns.

2. During the Procedure: The procedure involves pressing a hand-held laser instrument to your skin. Depending on the laser, a cooling device on the tip of the instrument or a cool gel might be used to protect your skin and reduce the risk of side effects.

3. Post-Treatment Care: Redness and swelling for the first few hours are normal. Ice packs can help ease these symptoms. Avoid sun exposure and use sunscreen regularly to protect the treated areas.

Recovery and Results

The recovery time is minimal, allowing most people to return to their daily activities immediately. The treated hair doesn’t fall out immediately but will shed over the following days to weeks. While some results can be seen after the first session, several sessions (usually 6-8) spaced a few weeks apart are needed to achieve optimal results.

The Bottom Line

Laser hair removal is a game-changer for those looking for a more permanent solution to hair removal. It offers a great blend of convenience, effectiveness, and efficiency. For those living in Calgary or nearby areas, you have access to some of the best technology and skilled professionals in the field.

Remember, the success of your treatment largely depends on the skill and knowledge of the practitioner, as well as the suitability of the technology used. Therefore, invest time in choosing the right clinic and prepare to enjoy the confidence that comes with smooth, hair-free skin!

Whether it's preparing for summer bikinis, ensuring smooth legs all year round, or handling unwanted facial hair with discretion, laser hair removal in Calgary might just be the solution you have been searching for. Say goodbye to the endless cycle of shaving and waxing, and hello to long-lasting, silky-smooth skin!

Yogurt and Turmeric:

Mix yogurt with a pinch of turmeric and apply it to your hands. Turmeric is a natural skin brightener.

Hydration:

Drink plenty of water and moisturize your hands regularly. Hydrated skin tends to recover more quickly.

Wear Sunscreen:

To prevent further tanning, always apply a broad spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher to your hands before going out in the sun.

Please note that these methods may not produce immediate results but can help over time. If you need quick results, consider using makeup or self-tanning products to cover up the tan temporarily. Also, it's essential to be gentle with your skin, as harsh or excessive exfoliation can damage it. If you have severe or persistent tanning, consult a dermatologist for professional advice and treatments.

If you need to remove tan from your hands immediately, you'll want to use makeup or cosmetic products for a temporary solution, as natural methods typically take time to show results.   

Let’s see How to remove tan from hands immediately. Here's a quick way to remove tan from hands immediately. 

Use a Self-Tanner or Bronzer:

Exfoliate your hands gently to create a smooth canvas for the self-tanner.

Apply the self-tanner evenly to your hands, following the product's instructions.

Blend the product well to ensure there are no streaks or uneven patches.

Allow it to dry completely before putting on clothes or washing your hands.

Use a High-Coverage Foundation or Concealer:

Choose a full-coverage foundation or concealer that matches your skin tone or is slightly lighter if you want to brighten the area.

Apply the foundation or concealer to your hands, focusing on the areas with tan.

Blend it thoroughly for a seamless finish.

Setting Powder:

To ensure the makeup stays in place, lightly dust a setting powder over the concealed areas.

Avoid Sun Exposure:

Once you've covered up the tan, it's essential to avoid sun exposure to prevent further tanning.

Please note that these methods provide temporary solutions for concealing tan lines and do not permanently remove the tan. To address tan lines more permanently, you should follow the natural remedies and preventive measures mentioned in the previous response over a more extended period.

Everything You Need To Know About Laser Hair Removal

Introduction:

Laser hair removal is a method of removing unwanted hair from the body. It is a comparatively faster process and is painless. Hence, laser removal in Kolkata is quickly outrunning other hair removal methods. Moreover, apart from body hair removal, this process provides ample skin benefits too!

So, if you have not tried it yet, it’s high time!

In this post, we will give you an overview of laser hair removal in Kolkata.

How does laser hair removal work?

Laser hair removal in Kolkata involves the use of a laser instrument for the same. This instrument emits light waves. The melanin pigment (or, the coloring pigment) of the hair absorbs this light wave. Now, this light wave is converted into heat energy which then damages the hair sacs. These hair sacs are the hair follicles that contain the roots of the hair.

Therefore, once the hair follicles are damaged, there is no new hair growth.

Now that you know how the process of laser hair removal works, it is important to understand this. The contrast between skin and body hair color facilitates the precise and quicker absorption of the laser rays. Otherwise, without a visible prominence in the color difference, the outcome may not be the best. So, laser hair removal in Kolkata works best for people having lighter skin and darker body hair color. However, with rapid advancements in technology, individuals having different skin tones and body hair colors can also get laser hair removal. They will surely get their desired results if the latest technology laser instrument is used as in Kaayakalp. The expertise of the laser surgeon and the skincare of the patient is also important to factor in determining the outcome.

Where is laser hair removal most effective?

You can go for laser hair removal in Kolkata for body hair removal in the following areas of the body:

∙ Eyebrows ∙ Facial hair ∙ Underarms ∙ Back ∙ Stomach ∙ Pubic region ∙ Hands ∙ Legs

Laser hair removal is effective in removing unwanted hair from any part of the body. It is FDA-approved, hence, a safe body hair removal procedure.

But it is not used to remove facial hair around the eyes (including the eyelashes). This is because the eye is sensitive to heat. So, protective goggles are used both by the laser surgeon and the patient during laser therapy.

Is laser hair removal suitable for everyone?

Yes. Laser hair removal is suitable for everyone. But, if you tick yes to any of the following conditions, you will not qualify. These are the contraindications for laser hair removal:

∙ Pregnant women ∙ Tattoo on the treatable area ∙ Keloids or hypertrophic scars on the treatable area ∙ Photosensitivity of the skin ∙ Persons taking medications that induce skin photosensitivity ∙ Persons suffering from cancer ∙ Persons having a history of skin cancer ∙ Hypopigmentation or hyperpigmentation on the skin ∙ Tanning (either due to sunbathing or artificial spray tans)

For persons having grey, white, red, or blonde hair, you need to be cautious. Consult with your laser service provider if they have the latest laser technology that will give them the desired results. This is because not all lasers are suitable. Only cutting-edge technology allows effective laser hair removal for these hair colors.  

Is laser hair removal permanent?

Yes. And no.

You may have heard about laser giving a permanent hair-free body. But this is not fully correct.

Laser hair removal therapy destroys the hair roots. Hence, the hair regrowth rate is low. The results are, as you may call it, semi-permanent. You will notice a change in the hair texture after the procedure. Hair follicles that regenerate produce lighter and thinner hairs. Hence, you will require maintenance sessions. But the duration may vary in different people owing to their natural hair growth pattern.

How often should you do laser hair removal?

Depending upon your body hair density, you will require anywhere between 3 and 10 laser sessions.

Hair follicles are in different stages of growth. For laser hair removal to work, the hair follicle needs to be in the growth stage. This is not possible to achieve in a single session. That is why repeat sessions are needed. The repeat sessions are spaced at a gap of 6 to 8 weeks. This time allows hair growth from the previously dormant hair follicles.

After the initial sessions, you will require maintenance sessions. Once again, this varies from person to person. It depends upon the following factors:

∙ Body hair regrowth rate ∙ Body hair density (this significantly declines with laser hair removal therapy)

Generally, individuals require maintenance sessions once or twice a year.

Is laser hair removal safe?

Yes. Laser hair removal is a safe procedure.

After the session, you may experience slight redness, swelling, pain, and itching in the treated area. This is only temporary and will resolve within a few hours to a day. But it is important to follow the guidelines to prevent any adverse reaction. Follow the advice of your laser surgeon religiously to ensure no unfavorable side effects follow.

Is getting laser hair removal worth it?

Laser hair removal in Kolkata is worth your time and cost. With the help of this procedure, you can not only lose your unwanted hair but also gain amazing skin benefits. It is the most convenient hair removal technique at the most cost-effective pricing.

So, say yes to gorgeous skin and no to unwanted body hair.

Types of moles and warts

Moles and warts can come in different shapes and sizes. Moles are usually dark spots or patches on the skin that can vary in color from black, brown, and tan. They can be raised or flat and can range in size from a few millimeters to several centimeters. Warts, on the other hand, are growths on the skin that are usually rough and have a dome-like shape. These can be caused by certain viruses and can spread through contact with an infected person or object.

No matter what type of mole or wart you have, it is important to seek out Mole and Wart Removal Treatment to keep your skin healthy and free of any potential dangers. If left untreated, moles and warts may lead to irritation, pain, and in some cases, even skin cancer. It is important to visit a professional for treatment as soon as possible.

Moles and warts can have a negative impact on your physical appearance, self-confidence, and overall well being. That’s why it is important to seek out mole and wart removal treatments when you notice one or more growths appearing on your skin. Some moles and warts are harmless, but others can be malignant or precancerous, and should be removed as soon as possible. Removing moles and warts can also help to improve the appearance of your skin, giving it a more even tone and texture. That’s why it’s important to seek out Mole and Wart Removal Treatment as soon as possible if you notice any unusual growths.

It’s important to consult with a dermatologist or skin specialist before deciding on a removal treatment, as they will be able to assess the type of growth and recommend the best course of action. Different types of moles and warts may require different types of treatment, such as cryotherapy, laser therapy, or surgical excision. It’s important to understand which treatment is best for you so that you can get the best results and minimize any risks.

Different removal treatments

Mole and Wart Removal Treatment can be an intimidating process, but it doesn’t have to be. There are a few different options available that range in intensity, making it easier to find a treatment option that best suits your individual needs.

One of the most popular treatments is cryotherapy. This method uses a special instrument to freeze the affected area with liquid nitrogen. The cold temperature causes the mole or wart to eventually fall off. It is important to note that this process is not always permanent and may require multiple treatments before desired results are achieved.

Another option is surgery, which involves removing the mole or wart with a scalpel or laser. Surgery is usually more effective than cryotherapy as it removes the entire mole or wart rather than just freezing it. However, it is a more invasive treatment and can be more expensive as well.

Finally, you can try topical medications that are specifically designed to treat moles and warts. These medications contain active ingredients such as salicylic acid and trichloroacetic acid which help to dissolve the mole or wart tissue. They can be found over-the-counter or by prescription from your doctor, depending on the severity of the condition.

No matter which type of Mole and Wart Removal Treatment you choose, it is important to follow your doctor’s advice for optimal results. Be sure to ask any questions you may have prior to starting the procedure so that you understand the risks and benefits associated with each type of treatment.

Surgical excision is another common treatment option. In this procedure, a doctor uses a scalpel to cut out the moles or warts from the skin. This method can be very effective in removing larger growths. However, it does require some recovery time and can leave visible scarring.

Freezing and electrocautery are two other popular options for mole and wart removal. Freezing involves applying a cold substance such as liquid nitrogen to the skin to kill off the unwanted skin growths. Electrocautery is a more invasive procedure in which an electric current is applied to the area to destroy the unwanted tissue. Both methods have their own set of pros and cons, so it’s important to discuss them with a qualified medical professional to determine which is right for you.

No matter which treatment you choose, it is important to remember that mole and wart removal should always be done by a qualified medical professional.

James caught that quick move of hiding his arm. Everyone had their weakness, and it was clear Killian wasn’t terribly fond of that arm. He didn’t want him to see it, to ogle and stare. That wasn’t in his nature, anyway. As mangled and scarred as it was, James was determined to love every part of him.

Once the strap and hook was set down, he laughed slightly at how quickly he was pulling that shirt of his up. On him? There was that audacity again. But he helped him since he was obviously short handed. He had to remove his leather scabbard and sword first, so he returned to the bed to place them there. Next came that delicious black coat, another thing they had in common, peeling it from his arms and abandoning it on the bed. Then he got his heavy boots and socks away until he was barefoot.

Maybe he pulled a card from Killian’s playbook then, turning to face him so he could slowly pull that shirt off from the other room, revealing his pale and heavily freckled flesh. No amount of sun seemed to permanently tan him, only freckle him. He did it in a bit of a tease, rolling his broader shoulders in a slight show and a smirk.

But he quickly returned to him, looking him up and down like the delight he was. Next would come trousers he knew, and he could help with that. But first? He leaned forward once more, kissing at his shoulder, and slowly down his disfigured arm. It was a gentle pull, bringing it to his front as he continued to kiss down it. As he neared the scarred stump he could see he was a bit raw, and he placed the gentlest of kisses there, before lowering it. The entire time, he held firm eye contact.“ If I am to love you, I will love every part of you. I will cherish you, as you’re meant to be cherished.”

If James was anything, he was a great orator and a speaker of pure poetry. Killian had his words that could make him quiver, but James also shared that talent. He was a lover of books and poetry, and his words so easily reflected it. With the way he treated him, he didn’t expect this to be one wistful night. He was easing into it, but he wanted plenty of these nights, to hold and be held, to love and be loved.

“ Now. Let’s get these off you. “ He moved into kiss him again, a firm and more reassuring one this time. He fell to his knees as if he’d done it a thousand times before, helping him easily out of one boot and then another, along with socks. He even softly doted a kiss to his ankle. How gentle this giant was, but he could be so much more. Aggressive, passionate, when the need arose for it. Perhaps Killian could fetch all of these things from him. From his knees he stared up at him in admiration. “ You’re the most beautiful creature I have ever laid eyes upon.. “ A hand ran up his leg. “ And I long to see more. “ Slowly he moved back to his feet, only after worshiping him in such a loving way. He wondered if anyone had done that before. Had any man treated him as if he were Adonis himself to be worshipped?

When James heard the whistle, he groaned as they were just about to kiss, mumbling. “ And right now, I hate that thing. “ It was said with a chuckle as Killian wound himself free of his arms. Already the chill from the lack of body heat had hit him. This was the Caribbean but there was a drop in temperature. He already missed it.

He followed him, arching a brow at the question of straps. His body and mind were now both set on doing this, enjoying the hot bath and the time he spent with him. It had taken some convincing, but now he didn’t want anything else in the entire world. Treasure be damned, he wanted this bath.

But he frowned once he saw the apparatus that held that hook in place. It was ingenious really, but it wasn’t what he primarily thought. “ This must get painful.. “ He could only imagine how sore his arm was at the end. James diligently and carefully went to work unclamping each leather strap of the harness, carefully unwinding it. This process gave him another chance to get a good long look at his revealed upper body. Once the shoulder pad was removed, he’d craned his head down so he could give his free shoulder a soft kiss. Kissing made things better, right? For a few moments he let his hand rub at his side from behind.

Soon enough he’d gotten the whole thing free, looking about. “ Anywhere you want me to put this? “ He doubted there were too many of these in this world, but guessed he probably had more than one. The steam in the room was growing and he hadn’t even moved to get an item of clothing off just yet.

♡ pairings: chan x reader, changbin x reader, seungmin x oc (kind of)

♡ word count: ~1.5k

♡ description: you didn't even want to go to the stupid library to begin with, but unfortunately, your best friend needed a movie and you both couldn't find it online.

♡ warnings: none, as far as i know

originally, you were just going to borrow your best friend’s card, but upon hearing they had nearly double the fines that you’d had at the start of your life, you had no choice but to get a new card for a different branch. you walked in with the intent of this being an in-and-out thing, since you had places to go and people to see. places being your house, and people being the pizza guy, but who was asking?

you walk up to the vacated desk, full of unmanned computers and scanners, waiting for someone to help. there was a bell with a sign that begged you to ring it for service, but you would rather die than do that. so, you waited. you looked around at all the people, seeing a couple people walk by. a guy with some sapphire blue hair holding a stack of books about cats, holding hands with another man with soft, blonde hair, complaining about said cats. another guy, down the aisle, sitting comfortably in one of the chairs, nose pushed into the latest chronicle of some book about dramas. 

a voice, deep and warm, shook you from your thoughts, “um, sorry, how can i help you?”

your eyes snap back to the person behind the desk, and immediately you’re startled. in front of you, a guy with a thousand watt smile and crescent-moon eyes, dimples in his cheeks as he smiled. thin, golden wire rim glasses perched low on his nose, he still smiled, and you realize you had been asked a question.

“oh, uh. i needed to get a library card.”

“yeah, sure!” the guy responds, smile getting larger if that’s possible. you search for a name tag or some indication of who this is as you spout absent information for the librarian to fill in. finally your eyes catch the ID card laid on the desk from when the librarian had hurried up to help you. christopher.

after a few minutes, christopher hands the finished card to you, smiling, “now all i need is for you to sign it and then you’ll be all set.”

“thanks,” you reply, still lost in the concept of the librarian boy in front of you. christopher hands you a permanent marker, and you sign. 

“if you need any help, feel free to find me, or... i think seungmin is also working today.” between the two, you already preferred christopher, but the two didn’t need to know that.

you hurry along, going to get the dvd you came to rent. it was your dumb best friend’s idea to rent it to begin with, since they couldn’t find it anywhere else and their internet was broken. they were waiting outside in the parking lot to drive back to their house to watch it with you.

you search through titles, reading the spines of them as you go, finger trailing down the sides. you regretfully discover they’re sorted not by alphabet but by ISBN number. searching for what felt like hours, your fingers finally reach a copy of ponyo. jesus... why did things take so long... you pull the dvd out and another hand reaches close to pull another dvd out. you squint at it as it’s removed from your sight. the shining. your eyes follow the dvd up to the owner of the hand, seeing a tanned guy with a fierce expression. he was wearing a white tee shirt that was probably a size too small and showed off more of his body than you’d typically deem acceptable, his brown wavy hair falling towards his eyes.. despite the fierce expression, there was a hint of softness to his eyes. 

the guy speaks, a warm, rough voice, “i’m sorry, did you want this one?”

“n-no!” you quickly say. “uh. i just... uh...” didn’t know how to explain yourself. “s-sorry.”

a small smile pulls at the guy’s lips, “it’s alright. what movie did you pick?”

you simply offer the case to the guy, too afraid of saying something else dumb.

“ponyo... i haven’t seen this one.”

“it’s really good. one of my favorites.”

“i’ll have to see it sometime,” the guy says. “maybe we can do a movie exchange.”

“maybe,” you say, increasingly losing confidence in this conversation.

the guy smiles again, “i’m changbin. it was nice to talk to you...” his voice was hardly above normal library volume, but seemed to resonate within your head. “i hope i’ll see you around.”

“y-yeah,” you say.

changbin hands back the dvd and walks off. you stay rooted to the spot until he’s borrowed his dvd and has left. when you look down, you see that you have...not ponyo. in your hands instead is the shining. oh no... he was gone now... there was nothing you could do.

you go back up to the desk, and christopher is there, grinning brightly again. 

“find everything okay?”

other than the fact that you now had the wrong dvd and there was only one copy of ponyo in this library... “yeah.”

“i’ll just scan this and your card and then you’ll be on your way!”

“thanks,” you say. christopher does so, and waves to you as you leave.

“come back soon! we always have new dvds being cycled in and out!”

you planned to never come back to the library ever again after returning this stupid dvd....

~*~*~

but you couldn’t resist. christopher’s smile was infectious and changbin always had something funny to say or a laugh to share. after that day, you and changbin began to recommend each other dvds, and then come back the next time and discuss. this week’s choices were big hero 6 from you and insidious from changbin. 

“it was so creepy!” you say. “and i felt so bad for the wife. after all that, she gains one family member, but loses another...”

“ah, yeah... i agree. but that’s part of what makes the story really emotional, even though it’s scary, right? as for big hero 6, i knew it was going to be fun... i liked it a lot. baymax would be a helpful invention.”

god... he was so cute. “yeah.”

changbin offers you another horror movie, and you offer an anime movie that came out recently. you smile at each other and part ways.

you go to christopher to get your dvd, and christopher smiles at you like he does every time. “find everything?”

“yup,” you say, smiling back.

christopher opens the dvd to check that the magnetic lock on it had been taken off, and looks surprised. he says nothing for a moment, before saying, “hang on.”

had someone tampered with the dvd? you stand and wait. christopher steps back to a desk further back behind the counter, and beckons seungmin over. they talk heatedly. in the meantime, your mind wanders again. you’d been thinking about introducing your best friend to seungmin, but you’d never got around to it. maybe if something worked out, you could double date. your best friend and christopher’s coworker, and then you and ... changbin... and christopher. was it still a double date if you had multiple dates? would they be cool with th--

“y/n?” christopher’s voice snaps you back.

seungmin was back to shelving the holds over behind the desk. christopher was offering the dvd to you. woah... how much time had passed?

“here’s your dvd.”

“th-thanks.”

what was wrong with it? 

you walk out and open the dvd. everything looked fine but... inside was a little dark blue card. there was a star on the front, with your name written in it, in scratchy pen.

y/n.

the words were in pretty silvery ink.

on the backside was a message.

do you want to see a movie with me together? we could go see watcher. it’s another horror movie. tomorrow at 2?

-cb

underneath it, in neat, boyish handwriting, in a gold-ish ink, was something else.

i know that that was an offer for you, but i’ve also been interested in you and changbin. can we make it three?

-chris

both of them...? with you?

on the bottom were both of their phone numbers, each in their respective colors. how did changbin get the card inside the dvd? that must’ve taken some planning...

you text changbin first, saying that you’re interested, and asking if it was okay if christopher came too.

changbin texts back almost immediately, saying he’d be more than happy to have christopher come along. you tell christopher, and christopher responds with excitement. you’d just set yourself up on a date with two different guys...

you feel a tap on your shoulder, and turn to see the puppy-like coworker of christopher. “hey, uh, did you say yes to going out with chris?”

“y-yeah. why?”

“you know that person who drives you to the library every day?”

“what?”

“the one with the green car. they drive you here every day.”

“yeah...?”

“can you introduce me?”

you can’t help but laugh. fate worked in fickle ways. the next day, you, changbin, christopher, seungmin, and your best friend all went to see a movie. you felt on top of the world when changbin twined his fingers with yours, and your heart soared when christopher took the other and slotted your fingers together. things were looking up, all because you went to the stupid library.
