Do you think you can write Lidia x reader and add some tension and angst (but happy ending)
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?
a/n;; i liked the idea and i had it since i first read your ask and i tried to make it angst angst angst and happy ending and i think ive done a good work because i like how it turned out. thank u for the ask. love uuuuuu
WARNINGS;; drugs, hurt, angst, s3xual ass-ult mention, reader "cheats" one lidia (not true, people are assholes)
a buzz woke her up.
her phone was ringing. no ringing, buzzing.Â
she blinked slowly, the sun illuminating every corner of their room.Â
no. no their room.Â
she was in a stranger's room. and she was naked.
a male was on the other side of the bed, sleeping and snoring loudly, not caring who was at his side. her head hurt, and the last thing she knew was that she was at a club with bryce, ruhn and hunt having some fun. what has she done? and the most important thing⌠what was she going to say to her mate? her entire body hurt, and she had some marks on her body.
she looked for her clothes and when she was dressed she made her way to their house. anxiety crept through her body, she was an awful person. she opened the door and made her way to the living room and found lidia watching the street through the window.Â
âhi ba-â she sniffed. her scent was mixed with alcohol and the male's scent. she was going to throw up.Â
âwhat have you done?â
âi⌠i don't knowâ
âyou don't know? you scent is mixed with another male.â lidiaâs voice was filled with hurt. betrayal. anger.Â
âbabe, please, listen to me, i dont know what happenedâ
âno, i think you know perfectly what happened, but you won't tell me. and i want you to tell me the truth⌠have you slept with another person?â
she breathed in and out twice. thatâs it. that was the end. âi did itâ
lidia started to cry.Â
âhow could you? how could you do that to me?â she said loudly
âbabe please, let me explain-â
âno. i dont want to hear nothing from you right nowâ lidia went to their room, slamming the door behind her.Â
she fell to her knees.
4 days after the event, she felt sick. mentally and physically.
she knew lidia ate because when she went to the kitchen the dishes were clean. lidia didnât look at her or talk to her, she acted as if she was alone. she deserved it, after all, she was the one who cheated on her.Â
she was in the kitchen trying to eat something, but she couldn't eat. she had been throwing up for 3 days straight, the dizziness from the alcohol was gone hours after the argument and her bones hurt like hell.Â
she took the pan and some meat for lunch. she knew lidia had already eaten, so she tried to make something. and she felt it then.
her vision started to blur, her balance was off and her heartbeat was slow, her breathing also slow.Â
she fell to the ground. glass shattering around her and the last thing she heard⌠was lidia screaming her name.Â
she was at the hospital.Â
she didnât need to open her eyes to know it, the smell of medicine and the sound of the machine she was attached to was enough, but there was something on her bed. a weight crushing her arm. maybe bryce was here or ruhn but the scent was familiar, she knew the scent. it was mixed with hers, wrapped around her like a second skin, a warm coat for her heart.
lidia.
her eyes were heavy, but she managed to open them. how many days has she spent there? or hours. lidia was sleeping on her arm, her hand wrapped around hers. as if sensing her, lidia awoke, dark bags under her eyes, hair messy and face a little pale.Â
âhow are you? are you ok? you need anything?â lidia rumbled.Â
âno⌠what happenedâ
she swallowed âyou passed out in the kitchen, your heartbeat was fading, i called and they brought you here, they made you some tests andâŚâ a tear fell from her eyes âapparently they gave you a drug mixed with the alcohol and they found evidence ofâŚâ a sob broke through her and she cried more âim sorry babeâ
âlidia, don't please. you dont have to apologize. it wasn't your faultâ
âyes it was. i should have listened to you and i should have seen that you were sickâ
âcome hereâ she moved aside so lidia could lay down beside her. lidia laid her head on her chest and she stroked her hair. a little while passed and lidia was relaxed, she thought she was sleeping but lidia took her face with her hands and kissed her lovely, passionately.Â
she moved away from lidia, but not too far. she didn't want to be far from her again.Â
âi love you lidiaâ she smiled âi know, i love you tooâÂ
they kissed again and the world fade out around them.

Power Couple
Tristan Flynn x Reader
Masterlist - Join My Taglist!
Written for Fictober 2024!
Fandom:Â Crescent City
Day Twenty-One Prompt: "We've done worse."
Summary: Tristan and his SO are in the van working together to help Lidia, Ruhn, Hunt, and Baxian escape. It's the mission of a lifetime, and they can't afford to fail.
Word Count: 2,534
Category: Fluff, Humor, Angst
Putting work into an AI program without permission is illegal. You do not have my permission. Do not do it.
"Alright, are you two set?"
I leaned forward and picked up the radio on the dash, holding down the button to reply.
"Set."
"Good. They're on their way out now. I'll give you a signal when they clear the gates."
"Copy."
I set the radio back on the dash, then took a deep breath and started the car. A moment later, I felt a warm, familiar hand resting on my thigh.
"I heard what you said to Dec, but I feel like it's my job as your boyfriend to ask: you ready for this?"
I huffed a laugh and turned to look at Tristan Flynn, sitting in the passenger seat of the van next to me. We'd been here for the better part of an hour now, doing my least favorite part of a mission: waiting.
Our friends had been captured by the Asteri, and we'd finally figured out a way to get them back. It wasn't going to be easy, but it was a chance, and not one of us had hesitated to take it. For Tristan and I's part, we'd be providing support for our friends' getaway car. Tristan would put his Aux training to the test and provide firepower, while I'd be living up to my driving reputation behind the wheel.
If things were going according to plan, Lidia would be on her way out of the Palace of the Asteri with our friends in tow. They'd be racing through the city streets in moments, and we'd meet them there. My heart raced, mostly at the thought of everything that could go wrong, but I nodded anyway as I laid my hand on top of Tristan's.
"Yeah... yeah, I'm ready. Just... worried."
"About?"
"Something going wrong when we're still too far away to help."
I turned to face Tristan as he nodded, giving my thigh a little squeeze. We shared a small smile.
"I know how you feel. We've just gotta trust them to take care of themselves until they can get to us. And then nobody coming after us will stand a chance."
I huffed a laugh, the smile on my face growing a little more sincere. Tristan never failed to make me feel better, even in the face of ridiculous life-threatening situations that had become all too normal in the past few weeks. I shook my head.
"I can't believe we're about to go racing through the streets of the capital city as part of an insane jailbreak from the most fortified jail in the world." Tris just shrugged.
"We've done worse."
"Babe. Literally what have we done that's worse than this?"
"How about the time you came as my date to a Lord Hawthorne function and had to sit through dinner with my entire family?"
I snorted. "Okay, that was worse."
The two of us shared a smile and a little laugh, the moment fading to something slightly more sincere as we held hands, staring into each other's eyes waiting for Dec's signal. We both knew what was at stake if something went wrong today. Not just for our friends, but for each other. The Asteri were brutal, and I wasn't going to let them get their hands on my boyfriend.
The radio crackled to life. "Alright, Daybright's heading to the gate! She got everybody out, but they've already got people trying to take them out. They'll be on you in a minute, get ready to go!"
I snatched up the radio and gave Dec another "Copy" before taking the car out of park and shifting into gear. Tristan leaned over, gently grabbing my chin and pulling me in for a fast, hard kiss. He pulled back, his eyes holding mine for just a moment, his expression unusually serious.
"We've got this, sweetheart. Let's show those bastards just who they're messing with."
I nodded, heart racing in my chest, and Tristan climbed into the back of the van. I heard him getting his gun ready and moving towards the van's sliding door, ready to provide support when we met up with Lidia and the rest of our friends. I took a deep breath, getting my head in the zone.
Right on cue, I heard an engine roaring from around the corner of the alley we were hiding down. I timed my exit perfectly, tearing out onto the street and falling immediately alongside Lidia in her jeep. I nodded to Lidia as I pulled alongside her, then a little bit ahead. I heard the sliding door of the jeep open.
"Where the fuck is your hand?" Tristan shouted. I could barely make out the words over the road noise and gunfire, and frankly, I didn't really want to know who his question had been addressed to.
Even if I'd wanted to, I didn't have the extra bandwidth for it, either. A pedestrian stepped out into the street, and I had to swerve to avoid them. I popped down a side street, not exactly our planned path, but not one that would be a problem either. We ended up flanking some of the forces on Lidia's tail, and Tristan took them out one by one.
A moment later, the radio crackled to life, the next part of our plan ready to go. I took a deep breath and redoubled my focus on the road ahead of me, buildings and people flying by. We were about to burn down the Spine, starting in the Eternal City; things were going to get a little wild.
I managed to fall into line with Lidia again as we neared the end of a massive street heading straight out of the city, explosions echoing in the distance. I heard Tristan shouting again, making sure our allies knew the plan.
"We'll cover the highway. Get to the port!"
After a moment, the van door slide shut again. Tristan was climbing his way back to me, but I didn't even glance at him. My attention was otherwise occupied.
Based on Lidia's intel, Mordoc and his dreadwolves, the biggest threat to our group's success, would be coming out of the southwestern gate. Now that Tristan and I had helped with the firefight through the city, we were going to try to make some trouble for the dreadwolves.
I took a deep breath as I hit another open road, only to find the southwestern gate closing quickly ahead of me. I swore under my breath and floored it, while Tristan rolled down his window and took a few shots at the people in the gate's guard station. I grit my teeth as we neared the rapidly-closing steel. It was going to be close, but we had to make it out of this city.
"Holy shit," Tristan breathed as we squeezed through the gate, steel scraping against the roof of our car and pushing our van down to the limit of the shocks. Our back bumper hit the road as we just managed to clear the city wall, and next to me, Tristan let out a whoop. "That's right! Nice work baby!"
I laughed, unable to stop a grin at getting through our near miss. We were nowhere near out of the woods yet, thoughâI had a pack of dreadwolves to catch.
"How did he look?" I asked, sparing just enough attention to glance at Tristan. "Ruhn."
"Bad. But he'll survive."
I let out a little sigh of relief. I'd come to care a lot about Hunt and Baxian, too, but Ruhn had been in my life a lot longer. Almost as long as Tristan. He was like a brother, and I felt a weight ease off my chest with the knowledge that he was going to be okay.
Assuming we could all make it back to the Depth Charger alive, of course.
"Alright. Time to lap these fuckers," I said, locking back into the zone and racing down the highway ahead of us. I didn't need to look at my boyfriend to know he was grinning.
"Go get 'em, babe."
The rest of the world faded out around me as I focused on driving as fast as possible, closing distance on the dreadwolf guard ahead. We had a limited window to slow them down before we had to peel off and make our own escape, and I wanted to make the most of it.
Lo and behold, I rounded a corner and exited flat out, and the tail end of the dreadwolf pack came into view on the road ahead.
"There we go! Holy shit, I love you," Tristan said next to me. I laughed, still not taking my attention off the road.
"I'm glad you're into this. My driving scared off a couple of people before you."
"Ha. Wimps."
I smiled, working to close the gap ahead enough for Tristan to get a clear shot. We only had another few minutes before we'd need to peel off for the sub. I needed to make them count.
About thirty seconds later, we were in reasonable range for Tristan to do his part. He popped out of the sunroof, bracing himself on the seat as he held his rifle up to his shoulder. I did my best to keep the car steady and in a straight line, and a moment later, I heard the bang of Tristan firing above me.
I kept my eyes on the cars ahead. Mordoc was running with a convoy of four cars, but if we could even take out one of them, it might make the difference for our friends' getaway.
Right on cue, I saw both back tires blow on the car closest to us. I moved to one side so we could pass them, and Tristan ducked down to avoid a few errant bullets as we sped by. Luckily for us, as planned, Mordoc had decided Lidia and our friends were the bigger prize. He didn't even slow down, although he couldn't have missed the loss of one of his cars.
"Time?" Tristan shouted down to me over the wind. I screamed back up at him to make sure he could hear me over the noise outside the car.
"Our turn's coming up fast! This is your last shot, so make it count and then get back in here!"
Tristan didn't respond. We were a little closer than we'd been to the remainder of the dreadwolf pack, and we'd taken out one of the four cars. Mordoc was obviously still untouched in the lead, but he'd at least have fewer numbers trying to catch up to Lidia.
I heard Tristan's gun fire two more times, and the back tires of the third car exploded. Unlike the first car, this one knew they were under fire and started swerving the moment their back end hit the road. They were trying to take Tristan and I out with them.
Tristan ducked back into the car, throwing his seatbelt on and closing the sunroof. And not a moment too soon.
I managed to control the car well enough to avoid the rapidly-slowing dreadwolf car, still chasing Mordoc to put distance between us and the angry dreadwolves behind us. The second car, the only one left besides the lead car with Mordoc, started slowing down like they wanted to do something about Tristan and I. But they were too late.
I kept up our speed until a few hundred meters before a side road, which Mordoc's cars had already passed. Then, I slammed on the breaks, slowing us down as much as possible before lifting off the breaks and turning into the corner. The tires on the van squealed, and I swear we almost went up on two wheels, but I didn't let it slow me down. I got back on the gas as we cleared the apex, tearing off down our escape road at mach 10.
"Are they following us?" I called over to Tristan. The road we'd turned onto was much narrower, and with trees and wildlife on either side, I didn't want to risk taking my eyes off the road to look in my mirrors if I didn't have to.
"No," came Tristan's reply after a moment. "If they were following us, they'd be in our mirrors already."
I let out a long breath and leaned back in the seat, relaxing my death grip on the steering wheel just a little. I kept our speed up, but now it was normal speed, not racecar speed.
"Nice work, babe," said Tristan. He reached over to put a hand on my thigh again, giving it a little squeeze. "That was great work."
"You too, Tris. Best marksman I've ever seen."
I spared a second to glance over at my boyfriend, and I found him grinning at me, a wild look in his eyes. I smiled back. All I wanted to do was lean over and kiss him, but technically, we weren't quite out of the woods yet.
Tristan kept an eye on the mirrors and had his gun at the ready as I refocused on the road. It felt like an eternity, but finally, we made it to one of the Depth Charger's launches which would be taking us and our van back to the ship.
When we pushed off of shore, out into the ocean, I took my hands of the wheel and my feet off the pedals for the first time in way too long. I flopped over sideways, resting my head on Tristan's shoulder.
"Great work, sweetheart," he said quietly, rubbing small circles against my thigh. "Seriously. That was amazing."
"Thanks. Have you- I wasn't paying attention to the radio. Did Dec call with any updates?"
Tristan shook his head. "Not yet. But we gave them a good opening. And they're all strong as hell."
"Yeah."
We fell silent for a moment after that. I couldn't help the seed of worry burrowing into my brain, spinning out with a thousand different scenarios of ways our rescue may have gone wrong. Tristan, my wonderful boyfriend, knew me well enough to notice.
"They're okay," he said, moving to wrap an arm around my shoulders and squeezing me against his side. "I'm sure they are. They made it, and we're gonna hug the shit out of them the minute we get back to the ship."
"...How can you be so confident? Mordoc and one of his other cars got away from us. What if-"
"Nope. We're not doing what ifs. I know they made it, because they're almost as badass and capable as we are. There's no way that shithead and his attack dogs managed to stop them."
I snorted, burying my head into Tristan's chest to stifle a further laugh. Nobody else could lift me out of a funk like he could.
The two of us stayed like that, sharing a rare moment of quiet together, until the Depth Charger came into view. I sighed.
"Thanks, Tris. Now come on, we've got friends to check on."
"Can't wait until they're all healthy again and we can compare stories. We did some badass stuff out there, I don't want anybody forgetting it."
"Assuming our friends are fine, and we get the happy ending we're aiming for? I'm not letting anybody forget the time we ran down the dreadwolves and took out half their pack in a matter of minutes. Hunt and Bryce might be the magical chosen ones or whatever, but as far as I'm concerned, we're the best power couple of them all."

Things I wish to happen in House of Flame and Shadow
Due to CC3 coming out at the end of the month and me having the book on preorder since around November. Here are some wishes and dislikes for the next book. As always spoilers are incoming.
Many people don't want Aelin to come back but honestly, I want her back to show the high lords she is better than them and to have Helion and everyone else simping at their feet because they are so damn hot.
I want Aelin to have her powers back. This is not negotiable. Micah opened the gates = Aelin got her powers back.
Or she sees an Asteri with her powers and rips them to shreds. Whatever works.
There will be no Aelin/Fenrys and Maeve problems happening with Hunt/Ruhn/Lydia and the Asteri.
In fact, they will live happily ever after because Bryce will have already grabbed what she needed and come back to Lunathion and saved them all within 5 days. The rest of the book is everyone living happily in peace.
Someone slaps Rhysand.
Someone slaps the inner circle.
Aelin slaps people for being idiots.
The prison is actually the Dusk Court and that's where the dead people go, and Danika, Connor, Sam and Gavriel are all still alive. (I can explain).
Azriel goes to therapy.
Elain and Lucien get together.
Lorin (Ruhn's Mother) is Rhysand's sister and she helps Ruhn find Bryce and then when Ruhn and Bryce reunite with each other she sees Rhysand. (I can also explain).
The Multiverse is saved by girl power and all the next books coming out afterwards are just the girls being better than the men.
I fall into a bright portal and end up in their multiverse like Amren did.
I will probably add more as time passes but here we go.

Ithan x Reader | Rude Boy
type: angst, suggestive warning(s): cursing, nightclub, alcohol consumption, vulgar wording word count: 2.6k words request: Omg omg since ur writing for ithan holstrom i was wondering if you would write like a second chance fic with like a lot of angst and like them being broken up, she's tryna get over him, and he is possessive so she dirty dances with any of the other guys like flynn or tharion and he's just like get the fuck off my girl like huh?
- all rights reserved -
âAnd what does that mean now?â âThat I cannot stand it anymore,â Ithan growls, his jaw tense, his expression so very angry.Â
âSo you are breaking up with me?â
âYes, I am.â Ithan shudders when he turns away from you, only to turn back at you, glowering. âYou never have time for him. Everything else is more important than me. Your studies, your friends, your work, even your guy best friends.â
You donât have guy best friends. The most you have are Danaan and Flynn as your friends but you only met them through Lidia and only befriended them through her and through your relationship with Ithan. But they are not your guy best friends, they are friends and that is it. You also only ever spend time with them when all of your are together.
âThat is not true,â you say, your voice quivering. Your feel your lower lip tremble, your lashes dampening. âI was just busy this last week.â âAnd the week before. And before that as well.â Ithan pauses, his chest heaving with deep inhales. âIf you no longer wanted to spend time with me, you should have just said so.â
âThat is not true.â
It was the last conversation you had with Ithan, packing your things on that day and leaving his place. Crying you return to your own apartment, the one you share with Lidia Cervos. She is sitting on the living room couch, her legs thrown over Ruhnâs lap, both of them laughing loudly. Your heart cracks open once again, a sob parting your lips.
âSorry, I didnât mean to interrupt,â you breath out, dashing through the corridor, back to your room, nearly stumbling over your own feet and the bags filled with things you had at Ithanâs place. Slamming the door shut behind you, you fall face forward into the bed, letting your tears run free, your weeps muffled by the pillow that slowly gets wet from your tears. A door falls close somewhere in the flat and you assume Lidia and Ruhn have gone to her room. But you thought wrong, as a soft knock sounds at your door a moment later and soon the door is opened.
âY/N?â Lidiaâs voice fills the room and your hear her walk in. You lift your head, your blurry vision hindering you from seeing the expression of her face. But you have a feeling it is pained. You and Lidia have gotten extremely close over the past years, you have helped her a lot to get out of the relationship with Pollux, offered her a place to stay and protected her, kept her safe when he showed up here. Her heart breaks when another sob slips through your lips and she hurdles over to you, sitting down the bed and cradles your face in her hands. âOh baby, what has happened?â
Lidia swings her legs onto the bed, leaning against the headboard, her hands not leaving your face.
âIthan and IâŚâ A cry cuts your off and you bring your hand up, wiping the back of it over your face, under your nose. âWe broke up,â you bubble, shaking your head.Â
Lidia looks shocked, her eyes going wide, her lips parting. She has always pointed out what a beautiful couple you are, how perfectly you fit. She has been the one to get the two of you together, having loved the thought of one of her best friends dating one of her boyfriendâs friends. And you have been a beautiful couple, but apperently Ithan decided to throw it all away because of his jealousy or whatever. Maybe he had his reasons, but he did not tell you them.
âWhy?â Lidia asks carefully, lying down on the bed next to you. You shift a little, cuddling up to her, your head in the crook of her neck, her arm around you, hand softly stroking your back.Â
âI donât know,â you breathe, tasting the salty tears in your mouth. âHe said I did not spend enough time with him. That I rather spend time with everyone else but him.â
Lidia huffs loudly and gives her head a little shake â as good as it possible why lying. âThat is bullshit, you have been at his place every weekend.â
âThat was not enough I think.â You brush your face over her shoulder, feeling a little guilty as there is already a damp spot on her shirt. âYou think he really does not laugh me anymore?â
Lidia turns her head a little. âI think he still loves you a lot. He loved you so much before, he would not just stop loving you. I think he might have different reasons.â
And he had, but you only find out about them later, for now your are bathing in your pain, the ache in your chest only getting more rather than vanishing.Â
Lidia stays with you that night, holding you in her embrace the whole night and letting you sob until you have no tears left to cry.Â
You wake up in the morning with red puffy eyes, your face swollen and your throat dry. Lidia and you have breakfast together, and later you make yourself a girls day, filled with face masks, and nail care and movies. She tells you that she sent Ruhn away last night, telling him that you were her priority then and he understood. He understood. He understood other than Ithan, that there sometimes are other priorities but that she still loved him the same way.Â
It is a week after your breakup when Lidia is once again in your room, rummaging around in your closet. âThat one?â She tosses a bright red and way too short dress at you and you huff a no.
âWell then that one?â Now a black dress comes flying at you and Lidia throws you a warning look when she leans backwards and looks at you around the door of your closet.Â
You pick the dress up and look at it, it has low cut outs and some transparent pieces. You pull one shoulder up, shrugging a little. âI am not sure.â You are not sure for more than one reason. You donât feel yourself so much after the breakup with Ithan, you donât know if you will feel comfortable and secondly, it was Ithan's favourite dress on you. Would this just rip open the wounds again? You arenât sure, but when you meet Lidiaâs pleading eyes you say yes. It is Ruhnâs birthday party â he is celebrating at a club and you really did not want to go but Lidia was persistent, saying you need to get out again, mingle a little and really need the distraction. So you agreed. She also said she would really like to have you there, not yet having fully connected with Bryce and would love to have her best friend with her. So you agreed not wanting her to be alone, but in the back of your mind regret takes root. You know Ithan will be there as well. Ruhn was his friend, he was definitely invited.Â
A cab drops you off at the venue, a long lineup of club goers already waiting to get inside. But Lidia takes your hand, pulling you past those people, past the people smoking outside the club, until you come to a halt in front of the door and a big Hulk-like male that gives the two of you a once over.Â
âWe are on the guest list for Ruhn Danaan,â Lidia says casually. The man checks but still asks to see your IDs. He checks them as well and lets you pass with the wave of his hand.Â
You heart is thrumming in your chest when you follow Lidia through the crowd of dancing people, strobe lights flash from above and all around you, otherwise the club would be completely dim.Â
âHe is here!â you shout to your best friend over the loud music, pointing forward, your heart now beating in your throat.Â
âI know, I am sorry, Y/N,â Lidia says, squeezing your hand tightly while pulling you with her. Seeing Ithan would anyway be inevitable, but still your stomach churns as you have no idea how to approach him. Would you two speak?
Ithanâs eyes, full of pain and an emotion you cannot quite place, land on you the moment you get up the VIP area and Lidia greets her boyfriend with a passionate kiss. YOu obviously follow, wishing him all the best for his birthday before greeting the others.Â
Ithan watches you with a stoic expression when you wave your hand at him. He does not greet you, just looks at you and your heart cracks open. It is like he is blaming you. Like you made a mistake while he was the one to break up with you. Tipping his glass to his lips he downs it in one gulp.Â
You are getting angry, your gaze holding his until arms wrap around your waist from behind you.
Tristanâs head appears next you and he beams. âHello, beautiful. Haven't see you in a while, how are you?â
âFine,â you mumbled, trying to turn in his hold or rather leave his embrace. But thenâ
âYou want to dance?â
âI was just about to offer you a drink,â âTristan holds up two glassesâ- âbut dancing sounds like fun.â
âDrinking as well. Thank you!â You take the glass from his hands, clink his with it and then down it in one. He does the same.Â
If Ithan thinks that you spend too much time with the other boys, which was bullshit, you would show him how much you love spending time with them. It was super silly and on the edge of childish, but he had no right to be pissed right then, he was the one who broke up with you.Â
You follow Tristan who is holding you hand onto the dance floor, he turns you to him, grinning brightly. "I assume we are trying to make wolf-boy jealous?â
âHe is already jealous,â you groan, moving your hands up chest his chest, feeling his strong muscles underneath the shirt while his own hands find their place on your waist.Â
âYeah, but I think we are just adding oil to the fire.â A wicked glint appears in Tristanâs, his hands just moving his hands a little lower. âHe has been miserable the past week,â Tristan shouts, leaning in, his lips brushing your ear.
âHe broke up with me, you remember?â You tip your head to the side, eyes widening.
âI know, but you know why?â âBecause apperently I have neglected him,â you grumble.
âHmm.â You shake your head.Â
He takes one hand of yours into his, swirling you away from him. Your hair shifts over your shoulder and lifts. Irritation coats your insides, but still you force a grin to your lips. Wanting Ithan to hurt just like you did â although you actually don't it. You donât really know what you want. (imagine rude boy by Rihanna playing)
Flynn pulls you back to him while you sing a long to the text. Through the crowd you directly meet Ithanâs gaze, he has already been looking at you âglowering. Anger is etched into his features, his eyes like burning coals.Â
Come here rude boy, boy
Is you big enough?
Tristan turns you a little, pulling you closer to him, his hands come to rest on your waist. You move your hands up, your butt grinding a little against his front. You continue singing, your eyes are closed.Â
Come here rude boy, boy
Can you get it up?
But when you open your eyes again, you donât see Ithan anymore. Has he left? Have you taken it too far?
You clamp down on the regret that bubbles up inside of you and turn back to Tristan, hands sliding up to his neck.Â
âHe has left,â you say matter-of-factly. Tristan parts his lips but right when he wants to say something, you feel another pair of hands on your hips.
âFuck off, Flynn, get away from my girl!â Ithan growls behind you and you are pulled back towards his hard chest. You startle, fuming. âI am no longer your girl, Ithan!â you growl out when your head whips to him.
It looks like all life whooshes out of him, his eyes widen, his lower lip trembling. âWe need to talk,âhe shouts over the music, but you shake your head.
âDonât tell me what I have to do!â
Ithan turns you in his hold, eyes full of pain when they catch your gaze. âPlease, let us talk.â
Slowly you find yourself nodding, hurt radiating from every fiber of his body. âOkay,â you said and lean upwards a little, his scent of cologne, of wood and nature filling your nostrils.Â
Ithan lets you lead, you guiding the two of you through the crowd of people until your are outside where people are lingering on the fringes, smoking.Â
You try to find a place that is not so full of people and so you stop right next to the wall of the building, leaning against it and crossing your arms over your chest.Â
âNow?â You raise a brow.
âForgive me please,â Ithan says, his voice quivering and hoarse. He braces his hands on the wall beside you, leaning closer.Â
âAll of a sudden? Did it really need Tristan and me dancing that you realise you made a mistake?â Ithanâs throat works on a swallow, will fury blazes through your veins. You glare at him, feeling tears burn behind your eyes.Â
âNo,â Ithan bites out, his hand forming a fist and he punches the wall a little. âPlease, forgive me. I have been such an idiot. It all got too much. The weekend I broke up with you was the anniversary of Connorâs death. I just couldnât handle my emotions. And then you went out with Lidia instead of me and helped Ruhn choose a birthday cake and I just once again felt like everyone I love is leaving me.â
A tears runs out of Ithanâs eye and your heart shatters. You place your hands on his shoulders, squeezing them. âOh Ithan,â you breathe. Ithanâs mask slowly cracks open further, his lips quivering, his hands trembling. âYou should have told me,â you say in a low voice, your own eyes watering.
âI tried to. But I thought you no longer loved me and I would just break up so you are not leaving me. It was stupid and selfish.â
âYou are right it was stupid, but not selfish. You wanted to break you heart, Ithan. Oh gods!â You pull on his shoulders, bringing him closer to you, before curling your arms around his neck.Â
âWhy didnât you tell me about the anniversary of Connorâs death.â
Ithan exhales loudly into the crook of your neck, his tears falling to your skin. âI did not want you to see me so weak.â
âIthan you are my boyfriend, I want to see all of you. You are not weak if you mourn your brotherâs death.âÂ
He pulls back a little, staring at you with big, pain-filled eyes. Another tears slips out of the corner and you quickly brush your thumb over it. âYou boyfriend?â he whispers, the corner of his mouth tipping upwards. âSo I am forgiven.â
âYou shattered my heart into pieces, there is a lot more you have to do to make up for it, but yes, you are a little tiny bit forgiven.â
âI can promise some making up tonight. You are coming back home with me, yes?â
You smile at him. âYes, but only if you promise that we talk about things from now on. Everything. I want you to share with me what you are feeling, what you are going through. I want you to talk to me about Connor. I donât want you have to deal with that all alone.â
Ithan inclines his head and then leans in to kiss your forehead. âI promise I will!â

I think it's awesome that you're such a big fan of fantasy novels, me too! I wanted to your opinion about something. I came across a post where you say SJM's books are masterclasses, and I found them to be solid books, but not uniquely great. Can you explain what in your view makes them great at narrative pacing and worldbuilding, and how that compares to other great books in the genre like those by Ursula K. Le Guin or Jacqueline Carey? I'm curious about your pov, since you've been reading fantasy for so long. Please keep up the great blog!
Happy to meet another fantasy lover! And thanks!
Honestly, I don't think comparing authors to each other (unless it's in a "you'd probably love X" way) is useful â fantasy has grown to encompass such a wide array of writing styles. Sarah's style isn't 100% certified unique, because no art is 100% unique. But her style does stand apart from most fantasy writers, especially ones who stuck to a more rigidly traditional style. I think plot pacing, tropes, writing style etc are all personal preferences. I personally prefer the styles of VE Schwab, Sarah J Maas, Naomi Novik, Kristin Cashore... To name a few. Others might hate all of those authors' styles and prefer something completely different. And that's totally fine. Great, even. (As long as those people don't judge me or call me a child for not enjoying the type of writing they find "good," but I know that's not what you're doing here!)
I stand by what I said in that post about Sarah's writing, but that doesn't mean it was objective truth. My mother, for example, has different reading preferences than I do and would probably dislike SJM. And that's fine.
In my opinion, Sarah's style stands out. I came into this not really wanting to get into the reasons but I'll touch on them since you asked:
Her worldbuilding is phenomenal, but I don't feel the need to write a dissertation about it. I feel like the huge level of acclaim she's received for what I call the "Marvel Cinematic Universe of fantasy books" speaks for itself. She has done something remarkable and, in my experience, very unique. If you don't know what I'm referring to, I'd recommend looking up the ending of House of Sky and Breath (I don't like to post about it explicitly because it's such a world changing plot twist).
Her plot pacing is, again, phenomenal in my opinion. All of her books have that 'unputdownable' quality that comes from an author knowing exactly how to pace chapters to keep readers engaged. It's doubly impressive knowing that the majority of her books are multi-POV, too, so she kept multiple stories well-paced and engaging at the same time in each book. It's most obvious when you look at Empire of Storms and Tower of Dawn: the reason the tandem read works so well is that she was extremely thorough in making sure the plot pacing and timelines lined up perfectly in two books that came out a year apart.
Her characters are wonderfully written â again, in my opinion. Their thoughts, feelings and motivations all feel real and make sense to me. Her characters experience things like periods (including actual mentions of bleeding and cramps), realistic depictions of trauma and PTSD (I have PTSD, so that's not hypothetical), characters that grow and learn, characters that fuck up, characters that are multifaceted, characters that fall in love more than once, and more.
The emotional rawness of many of her characters and plotlines is also something that sets her apart from many authors. Yes, a lot of books can make readers feel things, but there is something so deeply raw and heart-wrenching about Nesta's self-hatred, Feyre's PTSD, Aelin's struggle with her title and power (and her torture), Manon's questioning about whether monsters are born or made (and whether she is one), Hunt's deep guilt, Bryce's inconsolable grief, literally everything about Lidia Cervos, and more.
I believe that people should read whatever makes them happy, and everyone reacts differently to art â there are books that touched my soul in ways I can barely describe, that I see as beautiful and astonishing... And they still have some one star reviews. That's the beauty of art.
I don't like a lot of "classic" fantasy, but I don't feel the need to convince anyone that those books or writers aren't good or don't deserve their acclaim. Just like I don't really think I need to convince anyone that SJM's books deserve respect â her work speaks for itself, and if you personally don't see why so many people love it, then it wasn't meant for you. And that's totally fine. No need to force yourself to read it!
I don't need or want to convince you that SJM's writing is a masterclass. If that doesn't ring true to you, that's fine. It's true for me, and for hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of other readers (over 38 million copies of her books have been sold worldwide, so I don't think millions is a stretch).
I hope that last bit didn't come across as aggressive or rude, it's just my thoughts on your question! Thanks for dropping by, anon, and thank you for asking in such a nice way. A lot of people don't do that. âĽď¸

I love to get hurt by what I'm reading, so I would say Empire of Storms but I really love ACOMF....
2) Which is your favourite series (tog, acotar or cc)
After reading Throne of Glass, TOG is the only valid answer.
3) Who is your favourite character? (And why?)
I really like Lysandra, the way she did everything in her power to save Aelin, to help with the war when she wasn't even a warrior, what she did for Evangeline..... She's just awesome.
4) Do you have a favourite quote from one of the books?
ââYou have been very braveâ, her mother said. âYou have been very brave, for so very long.â Aelin couldnât stop the silent sob that worked its way up her throat. âBut you must be brave a little while longer, my Fireheart.ââ I mean, this had me bawling my eyes out so...

Tropes I cannot stop thinking about:
Tristan Flynn x malakh!reader enemies to lovers
They donât go along at the beginning but during mission the reader covers Flynn with her wings, saving him from the bullets. He feels guilty and tries to make it up to the reader, accidentally falling in love with her.
dog person Aedion x cat person reader
âBaby put that cat down, please. Weâre not adopting another one.â
âYouâre not fair. I didnât complain when you brought home sixth dog!â
âWe have already five cats!â
âWhy donât you love me?!?!â
Azriel x pirate!reader
The one that fell in love with with skies and the one that got addicted to the sea. Also, Azriel flying over ocean as the reader stands on the mast, laughing as wind blow her hair in every direction, her eyes never leaving her loverâs figure.
Ruhn x tattoo artist!reader
Ruhn once visited her tattoo studio because one of his friends recommended it to him. He got crush on the reader immediately as he saw her and fell in love once he heard her laugh. Now, he keeps coming to get more and more tattoos only to hear her talk as she tattoos him.
Bonus points if once she asks about his scars and Ruhn opens up to her. Then, Ruhn - king of flirt, is struggling to find words as he tries to ask the reader out for a dinner.
Gavriel x reader that is addicted to adrenaline
The most collected and responsible man you know falls for the loud, adventurous girl that gives him heart attacks every five minutes.
âGo big or go home!â
âDarling, I beg you, just once letâs go home.â
âYeah no way. Now, wanna go bungee jumping?â
But when they finally go home, she falls asleep curled up in his arms like a little baby and Gavriel canât help but stare at her peaceful countenance.
(platonic) Fenrys x Lorcanâs mate!reader
She match Fenrysâ sarcasm and wildness like no one other. They always run around the palace, pranking everyone or telling jokes and stories at 3 am in the kitchen while cooking late night snacks. And Lorcan either follows them around, all grumpy and annoyed because Fenrys stole you from him, or sit somewhere with his arms crossed, trying no to show his jealousy as he watches you two.
But the reader always manages to make it up to him with kisses.
Lidia x reader that also was forced to serve Asterii since childhood
Theyâre assigned on a mission together and at first itâs only professional teamwork but soon they discover none of them really wants to do this. They become closer friends, they open up to each other and then realize there might be someone in this world that is worth fighting for. Basically, two traumatized girls find home and peace in each other.
Bonus points if Ruhn comes later and they take him in, becoming three traumatized babes that found love in each other.
Connall Moonbeam x ballerina!reader
She's one of the best ballerinas in Doranelle, one time she gets invited to the ball thrown by Maeve to perform and entertain guests. Connall feels the bond snap the moment he sees her. He falls in love with her soft smile, kind eyes and graceful moves.
He sits with her late at nights in theater, just the two of them, watching her practice, hypnotized with her moves, pure love radiating from his eyes.
He walks with her before and after every practice and never misses even one of her performances. He finally feels like he belongs somewhere and Fenrys is so happy that his brother found love.
Sooner or later Iâm going to write stories for all of the above.
Also feel free to add more. <3

loyal friends
poly!Ruhnlidia x Reader
Summary: âYou look so pretty on your knees,â âAt least I didnât get arrested,â and âYou look so good with my hand around your neckâ with Ruhn and Lidia.Â
Warnings: references to drinking/intoxication, sexual content, oral (f!receiving) minors dni
A/N: for this! I'm so obsessed with them.
You slipped through the door, shutting it quietly behind you, trying to hide your heavy breaths. Somehow, youâd managed to avoid whoever was on patrol, but it was a close thing. Your heels were long gone, discarded behind some dumpster or another. It had taken you an hour longer than it shouldâve to get home, covering your tracks as best as you could.Â
Vandalizing hadnât been on the agenda for the evening, but when that asshole insulted your friend it was all too easy for the three of you to find their home, and leave a nice little message behind.Â
A tang of guilt hit you. Not for the sweet revenge, but for leaving them behind. Theyâd told you to run after youâd figured out you were caught. Sure, youâd all disguised yourselves from the cameraâs, but the world knew who your mates were and how much of a shit storm it would cause if you had been caught in the act. Lidia and Ruhn were out late tonight, but your alcohol hazed mind couldnât remember exactly what they were doing. Work, probably.Â
Hot water washed the grime away, aided by furious scrubbing. After washing your hair, twice, you slipped into comfy clothes, fully prepared to spend the rest of your night on the couch, letting a mindless reality tv show calm your still thundering heart.Â
Turning the volume up to an obnoxious level, your phone slipped from your hand. Cursing, you tried to shove it closer to you with your foot - only succeeding in sending it under the couch. Groaning, you slid off, kneeling in front of it - ass up in the air, arm reaching blindly to try and sweep it out.Â
âYou should be more aware of your surroundings,â a faintly amused female voice called. A familiar one.Â
You cursed violently, you hadnât even heard the door open, probably couldnât hear over the noise. Noise that was now gone with a click of the remote. You slid back, shuffling yourself out and sat on your heels.Â
First, you saw Ruhnâs boots, then snapped your head up to see him - hand outstretched, looking rather severe.Â
âWhat is it?â you asked, placing your hand in his. He didnât move.Â
âShame,â he muttered. âYou look so pretty on your knees,â and tugged you up to your feet, his other hand gripping your shoulder to balance you. A shiver ran down your spine, his words making specific nerves in your body stand on end, but youâd save those for later - in case an apology was needed.Â
âWhat is it?â You repeated, looking past him to Lidia. Her lips curved into a smile, but she jerked her chin towards Ruhn.Â
âTwo of your friends,â he started and your stomach dropped, âare currently in holding cells.âÂ
âWhat happened?â You tried to keep your voice from wavering.Â
âThereâs currently a giant dick painted on the home of a very wealthy investor,â a touch of amusement entered his voice, âand said investor is howling about a third âcriminalâ escaping, demanding theyâre brought in at once.âÂ
It was obvious both Ruhn and Lidia knew the identity of said criminal.Â
âAnd do you have any suspects?âÂ
âWhoever it is, theyâre good at hiding,â Lidia said, âalmost like they know exactly how to avoid the cameraâs.âÂ
âGood for them,â you shrugged. Ruhnâs hand from your shoulder, up the side of your neck, thumb brushing over your cheekbone, before dropping back to his side, his other hand releasing yours as well. You flopped back on the couch, phone forgotten for the meantime.
âI should take you in myself,â he glared at you half-heartedly. There was a hint of pride in his eyes.Â
âWith what evidence?âÂ
âAt least tell me what he did,â Ruhn countered.Â
âI wasnât there,â you emphasized, ignoring his eye roll, âbut theoretically, he could have said some very rude things about a friend of mine. Looks like the type.âÂ
âThis asshole isnât going to let it go.âÂ
âTell him heâs hallucinating,â you offered, giving him your best grin. Lidia let out a soft laugh, golden hair falling over her shoulder. âAt least I didnât get arrested,â you threw as much honeyed innocence as you could into your voice, âthat wouldâve been a bigger mess. Theoreticallyâ
He shrugged noncommittally, but he knew you were right. âYou have some loyal friends.âÂ
âI wasnât there, remember?â
He groaned, but you noticed some of the tension left his shoulders, and he collapsed back on the couch, arm hanging over the side, legs spread wide. His fingers played with his lip ring. You remembered what that lip ring could do, a shot of arousal running through your core.Â
âReally?â Violet-blue eyes danced, mouth curving into a smirk, hand falling to rest on his thigh.Â
âI canât help it,â you shrugged.Â
His eyes traced over your shoulder, but before you could follow there was heat behind you, Lidiaâs body pressing into yours, one hand on your stomach, pressing you back against her, the other resting delicately around your neck.Â
âYou look so good with my hand around your neck,â her lips grazed over your ear, words soft and breathy.Â
A slow breath, eyes closed, head tilted back, resting against her shoulder, pulse thrumming against her fingers, her other hand trailing along your waist band, barely dipping into the skin below.Â
âPlease,â you breathed, and she chuckled.Â
âShould we give him a show?âÂ
âYes,â Ruhn answered for you, âabsolutely.âÂ
Lidiaâs hands dragged up your stomach, nails scratching lightly, taking your shirt with her. Each touch felt imbued with flame, the softness of her lips against your neck making your breath catch, the small whimpers involuntary.Â
âNaughty,â Ruhnâs voice interrupted as your arms raised, letting Lidia toss the shirt over. You were bare beneath, as always at this time of night. You rolled your eyes, but twisted, catching Lidia in a kiss.Â
Teeth nipped at your bottom lip, tongue swiping against to ask for entrance.Â
Parted lips, heavy breaths, hands winding in hair, the world forgotten, you leaned into her, let yourself be fully embraced in her presence and all encompassing aura.
It wasnât long before Ruhn gave up on his show, deciding to take a more active role. You chuckled as he pressed against your back, fingers sliding down the rest of the fabric covering your bottom half.Â
Jeans rough against your bare skin, shadow laced fingers cooling the heated parts of your body, moans grew louder as they worked you in tandem.Â
âToo. Many. Clothes,â you managed to force the words out, regretfully breaking your lips away from hers.Â
âYouâre naked, love,â she teased.Â
You tugged at her shirt in response. Her eyes rolled, but she first pulled you - ignoring Ruhnâs discontented grunt, before flipping you over her shoulder in one smooth movement. You squeaked as she carted you off towards the bedroom.Â
There, she finally let you tear the rest of her clothes off. Not literally, but they did fly across the room, Ruhn laughing as her shirt hit him in the face.Â
âYours off too,â you scowled at him.Â
âSomeoneâs bossy today,â he tutted, but obliged.
âHave I told you how beautiful you are?â You commented as he undressed, examining the tattoos you already had memorized.Â
âYesterday.âÂ
Lidia huffed, pushing you back. âMy patience is running out.âÂ
Her head found its way between your legs, bliss following. Each kitten lick, the finger slipping inside, the spot she pressed against was all perfection.Â
You barely registered Ruhn behind you, your back against his chest, his fingers toyed with your nipples, focused on the goddess before you - golden hair falling over her shoulders, eyes filled with wicked triumph.Â

hi love đ this came out a bit more than steamy, hope that's okay
Home
Lidia Cervos x Reader
warnings: smut, oral f!receiving, face sitting, tribbing-ish, minors dni
You werenât sure if you were still breathing as you watched Lidiaâs mouth wrap around the beer bottle, the way her tongue flicked out against her bottom lip as your girlfriend set her drink down.
âSomething on your mind?â she purred, a knowing glint in her golden eyes. Forcing yourself to breathe, you looked around to see all of your friends deep in other conversations, smirking to yourself at the perfect opening.
Leaning forward, you whispered lowly to her. âIâm just thinking about all the things I would be doing to you if we were alone.âÂ
Her reaction left you brimming with satisfaction and arousal, her scent subtly shifting as bright eyes darkened. Before you could blink, sheâd taken your hand, pulling you from the booth towards the empty back hallway.Â
Her hands landed on either side of your head, your back pressed against the wall as lips lightly traced your jaw. âGods, you drive me insane,â she whispered, tugging your ear between her teeth before she pulled away, grinning at your wild eyes and flushed cheeks. âLook at you, such a mess and I havenât even touched you yet,â she cooed.
You gasped, arching your back as you wrapped a leg around Lidiaâs waist, pulling her closer. âPlease, touch me,â you breathed, head tilting so your lips barely brushed hers.Â
You felt her smirk against you, pulling back as her eyes raked up and down your body. âTell me, where do you want me to touch you?â she purred.
âAnywhere,â you pleaded, âAnything you will give me, I just want you.âÂ
Something softened in Lidiaâs eyes at your words, her lips crashing against yours in a bruising kiss. Her hand slid up your waist, thumb lightly grazing your nipple.Â
The feeling sent a jolt straight to your core, a whimper leaving your lips that Lidia used to slide her tongue against yours, her lips sucking on the muscle before pulling away with a smirk.
Her hand found your other breast, flicking your nipple over the fabric of your dress. You released a breathy moan, eyes rolling back at the feeling while Lidia laughed softly. âSo reactive,â she purred, pushing her breasts against yours as her lips found your neck again. âI can smell how needy you are for me, dove.â
Panting, you leaned your head to grant her better access as she continued her assault down your neck. âPlease, Lidia, stop teasing.â
Instantly, Lidia stood, wrapping an arm around your waist as she guided you to the barâs exit. âWhere are we going?â you questioned, waving an awkward goodbye to your friends, each of them giving you knowing smirks.Â
âHome. I canât do all the things I want to do to you in a bar,â she answered simply, ushering you towards the car as she set off down the road at a speed that had you gripping your seat.
Unlocking the apartment door, you squealed as she pushed you inside, hands immediately fumbling at the bottom of your dress. âOff, now,â she murmured through frantic kisses.
You stripped off your dress, throwing it somewhere on the floor as you kicked off your heels. âYou too,â you nodded at her own gold dress. Her soft laugh echoed through the room, chiming like bells as she pulled the garment over her head, baring her body to you.
Instant need rushed through you, gaze turning hungry as you clashed with Lidia again, a tangle of lips and teeth, hands winding in each othersâ hair. You moved towards the bedroom, Lidia gently pushing you to lay down on the soft mattress.
âLay on your back for me, center of the bed,â she nodded, removing her underwear before following you onto the bed. Hands roved over your body, your bare chest as her mouth lowered to your breast, tugging your nipple between her teeth before flicking her tongue across the sensitive bud.Â
Grinding her hips against yours, you could feel her slick mingling with your own through the fabric of your panties. Lidia looked up from where sheâd started teasing your other nipple, a feral grin on her lips as a hand slid down to your core.
Snapping the band of your underwear, Lidia sat up fully, her pussy pressed to yours while she studied you with glazed eyes. âLook at you, squirming under me, all pretty and flushed. Canât even take a little teasing, can you?â
You huffed a laugh, hands running up her waist as you lifted your hips, desperate for more friction. âIâd hardly call this a little teasing, love.â Your gaze moved down her body, roving over her full breasts to her center. âGods, Lidia, please just sit on my face,â you breathed.
Arching an amused brow, Lidia lifted her hips from yours, earning a whine from you at the loss of contact. With a âtskâ, she turned around, perfect ass in your face as she situated her body to hover above you, teasing. âPatience, dove,â she murmured, her dripping core sitting just above your mouth.Â
âIâve been patient,â you retorted, wrapping your arms around her soft hips and pulling her fully onto your face. Nose brushing her entrance, your tongue licked a long stripe along her clit, drawing a beautiful moan as her fingers clutched the sheets beneath you.Â
âFuck,â she whimpered as your lips wrapped around the bud, sucking and licking while you guided her back and forth along your face. âTwo can play this game,â she muttered, roughly shoving your panties down your legs before pushing two fingers in your core.
Instinctively, you arched into her, moaning against her pussy as long fingers curled against your walls. âRight there,â you whispered, the vibrations against Lidiaâs clit earning a lewd moan from her.
She practically collapsed against you, long blonde hair tickling your thighs as her mouth found your clit, sucking in rhythm with your own movements. Riding your face on shaking legs, Lidiaâs breathing turned shallow, a sign that she was close.Â
You pinned her hips in place, doubling down your efforts on her clit as you brought your own fingers to her core, twisting and curling against the spot you knew would send her over the edge.Â
As though she sensed your goal, Lidia spread your legs, keeping you open as she added another finger, your muffled moans turning wild against her core as your own high approached.Â
Lidia clenched around your fingers, pussy fluttering as she came apart on you. Her moans send shocks through your clit, your back arching as you convulsed in her hold.
You crashed into your high, screams muffled by your girlfriend still seated on your face, coating you in her juices. Lidia rolled off of you, the cold air of the room suddenly hitting as you both caught your breath.Â
âCome here, please,â you whispered, motioning for Lidia join you. Wrapping a leg around her waist, you pulled her bare body against your own, reveling in her warmth.Â
Her lips pressed to yours, the combination of your flavors melting together on your tongue as you smiled into the kiss. She murmured quietly, âWe should take a shower-â
â-get cleaned up,â you nodded, rolling off the bed towards the bathroom.
âI was thinking we could get dirtier,â Lidia chirped, flashing a mischievous grin as she gave your ass a squeeze.
You couldnât help but laugh, shaking your head. âInsatiable.â
Lidia hummed, turning on the shower water, âonly for you.â

Little Witch - Ruhn Danaan
A/N - Back with some more Ruhn while I figure out the next part of my Eris Vanserra fic! Enjoy!â¤ď¸
T/W - Talk of injury, captivity and torture! Please keep yourselves safe while reading! â¤ď¸
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Ruhn's body was breaking, he wasn't sure how many more of these sessions with Pollux and Lidia he could take. Lidia who he had come to save, to protect, Lidia who had betrayed him in the end. Lidia who he could still feel in his mind, screaming for him. Lidia who made him feel alive, just like you did. What was worse is that his mind was breaking, he was going insane, he'd see you when you weren't supposed to be there, like a ghost, appearing in his worst moments, when the pain was too much and his body was about to give out or when his mind was about to shatter but you were safe, with his brothers, protected. Dec always had a plan, he'd have gotten you all out safely and Flynn was a warrior who would've fought to the end to keep all of you safe. Not to mention the unofficial Alpha and the Mer that adored you as well, no, no one would touch you, they'd have to get through his friends first.
You were powerful, he knew that much, it was the reason the Witches were so scared of you. The reason they'd kept you locked away for so much of your life. The reason they kept the nullifying bracelets on your arms. He could still hear you crying, screaming in pain as he held you while Dec removed them as carefully as he could. He could still see the dazzling smile on your face as Ithan ran barefoot with you through the forest and when Tharion took you into the water for the first time as you clung onto the Mer's neck for dear life. The gasp that escaped you when you sat with him and let him play you all his favourite songs, how you'd pulled him to his feet and danced with him. Your shy smile as you took in all the books in his room, he'd told you to take your pick and he often found you sitting on his bedroom floor reading, worried about taking them out of his room, he told you that you could take them and read them wherever you wanted. How you'd looked at him like he'd hung the stars for you. He supposed in your world, he had, coming to get you at Hypaxia's request, her second sister, her youngest sister who had been kept in captivity, she knew the other Witches would never accept you, so in came Ruhn, like a knight in shining armor to free you.Â
It had taken you a while to adjust to living in the house with them, you'd jump at loud noises and look ashamed if one of them found you eating despite the fact Ruhn and Flynn had filled the cupboards for you. You were skeletal when you first started living with them so there was always food around. You didn't speak, you still didn't at least not out loud. Dec was the first to break through to you, handing you a phone and sitting there explaining how to use it, telling you if you didn't want to speak then that was fine, but if you ever needed anything to click messages, pick which one of them you wanted and to type out what you needed. You smiled at him softly and he left you to your book, moving back over to the other sofa. He'd received a text 10 minutes later. "Thank you, Declan." He beamed and texted you back, if this is how you wanted to communicate, he'd go along with it. "You're welcome."
Ruhn received a text 3 days later, he'd always been able to communicate with you without words, without speaking into your mind, he'd tried it once and it had terrified you, hearing his voice in your head, but he just knew with you and you just knew with him, he couldn't quite believe the bond the two of you had built without you saying one word to him. It was the middle of the night, he'd just gotten home from Aux duty returning in the early hours and leaving again a few hours after as had become his routine as of late and he was fully expecting you to be asleep, as you usually were at this time when he returned home. He'd just stepped into his room, peeling his shirt from his body and unbuckling his belt to head straight into the shower after his long day when his phone buzzed on his night stand where he'd left it. "I miss you." Was all it said, he smiled slightly, it had made him feel good to know he was on your mind as much as you were on his. He typed a quick response. "Why are you still awake? I miss you too." Your reply came instantly "Waiting for you." Ruhn had never showered so quickly in his life. He was drying his hair with a towel when you appeared in his doorway, two mugs of hot chocolate in your hands, smiling crookedly at him. Gods he loved that smile, he stood and approached you, taking the mugs out of your hands and ushering you into the room, closing the door behind you, he knew this was your favourite place to be, that you felt safest in his room, he'd never asked why, not wanting to push you away, he'd never admit it, but those nights when he came home and you were asleep in his bed, those nights were his favourite.Â
Then he met Agent Daybright & everything changed.Â
The chair he was tied to toppled as Lidia Cervos delivered a nasty kick to his chest, something crunched under her foot, ribs most likely and Ruhn turned his head to the side and spat out the blood that filled his mouth. He wanted to die, he was ready to die. He'd taken more than enough, his body weak and broken, and he was sure his mind was broken beyond repair as you flickered into his cell. He knew he was going insane when you spoke. "Ruhn." His name, he'd never heard you say it and he knew in that moment that you'd ruined him. His name would never sound as good coming from another. "Ruhn, I'm here." You said gently, your voice was like a melody as you knelt in front of him, tears lining your eyes. "You aren't real." He forced the words out. "I am, I'm here with you, I'm astral projecting." He looked at you for a second before saying. "Witches can't do that without a familiar that comes with them." You brushed his hair out of his face and hauled his chair upright, undoing the bindings at his wrists and feet. "Ithan's a wolf." It clicked in his brain then. "Ithan's wolf is your familiar?" You nodded as the wolf, as Ithan, entered the cell as well and sat by the door. "We've been practicing, I know you've seen me before, they're coming, Ruhn. Flynn, Dec and Tharion are coming for you. Ithan and I will stay until they get here." He couldn't quite believe the words coming out of your mouth. "Ithan gave up the opportunity to be an alpha to be your familiar?" You smiled his favourite smile. "Ithan did it for you, Ruhn. You saved him while he was drowning, so he's helping to save you, he's a shifter so he's not bound to me like normal familiars are, but his wolf responds to me as well as to him now."Â
Ruhn reached for you, despite the pain it caused him to do so and his hand went straight through you. "Your nose is bleeding." He said and you touched your nose. "I've been here a bit too long, used too much power to touch you and to undo your binds." He opened his mouth to tell you to go but you beat him to it. "I'll go when they get to you, not a minute before, last time I left you ran off to save a girl and got caught." He closed his eyes as the memories played in his mind, the broken look on your face when he told you about her, his plans to meet her at the ball he'd promised to take you too, that Bryce had taken you shopping and bought you a dress to wear for. You didn't go to the ball, locking yourself in your room instead. He could still see the disappointment in his sister's face when she sighed and said. "She picked that dress for you Ruhn." He didn't understand then, he did now as he watched you bleed to stay with him. He watched you look around the cell, he knew Lidia was an uncomfortable subject for you, he'd pushed you away due to whatever it was he had with her. It was about to be made worse. "Where is she by the way, so I can tell the others so they can get her out as well?" Ruhn shook his head. "She's The Hind, she's the one that did this to me." Your mouth fell open. "My sister. My sister was who you were with in your mind? She did this to you?" He watched as your fists clenched and nodded weakly. "We still need to get her out, don't we?" Your voice cracking, he nodded again.Â
He could hear them now, his brothers coming down the hall for him. "Y/N?" He said and you met his eyes. "Don't ever stop speaking to me?" You smiled softly and nodded as Ithan took up a defensive stance at the door. Dec was the first through the cell door. "Easy pup, it's us." He relaxed and the wolf trotted to your side. "See you at home, Ruhn." The others faltered at your voice, just for a second and then you were gone, Ithan going with you as his brothers descended on him to get him out of the hell he'd been living for the last few weeks, or months, he wasn't sure.Â
It felt like a lifetime before they arrived at a house that Ruhn didn't recognise, Cormac had organised a safehouse in the middle of nowhere he'd learned, he'd also learned his cousin had died for Bryce, died to help his sister. He didn't dwell on the loss for too long, he couldn't because there you were, sprinting out of the front door and straight at him. His breath caught as he saw the look on your face, one he hadn't seen since he'd told you about Day. He couldn't brace his body for the impact, he didn't have the strength, but Flynn was there, catching you both before you toppled the floor. He was ready for the pain though, he'd take it if it meant you let him back in. He hissed in pain as you collided with him and tried to pull back instantly realising you'd hurt him, he didn't allow it, wrapping his tattooed arms around you like a vice, keeping you close to his body, inhaling your scent. "Hello, Little Witch." He murmured into your hair, his voice weak and laced with pain. "Hello, Princeling." You murmured back into his chest. He refused to let you go, walking you into the house, still wrapped in his arms, he'd have picked you up if he had the strength but he didn't, so instead you walked with him, clumsily, falling over his feet. He stilled as he entered the house and came face to face with Lidia. His arms dropped from around you immediately. "She led me out." Lidia said, approaching the two of you. "I'm so sorry, Night."Â
"We need a healer." Dec said quietly once they had situated Ruhn on the sofa, you had said no more words since your greeting to him, opting to stay by the archway into the living room. "I can do it." Every head in the room swiveled towards you. "She talks!" Flynn cheered as Dec elbowed him in the ribs. "You're weak from the projecting." Ithan said. "You were there for too long, pushed too hard." You cringed at him ratting you out and you watched Ruhn tense. "I can do it." You said again. "No." Your head snapped to Ruhn. "I can do it, let me do it." It was Lidia who spoke next. "Do it, heal him." She placed a hand on Ruhn's damaged face. "Please Ruhn." He nodded.
Of course he'd do it for her you thought as you pushed off the archway. "We need space, everyone out, Dec, you stay, you can help." Dec nodded as the others left to the kitchen. Lidia didn't move towards the kitchen, instead she sat next to him on the sofa and began removing his shirt. It made you sick. She'd done this before and you knew it. It may have broken you but Ruhn had always been honest with you. Telling you about her before his friends. You don't know what you had expected when your feelings developed for him, for him to have them back? To fall for a witch who was too strong for her own people, who couldn't control her own power? Who had suffered so much neglect that she chose not to speak anymore? The only reason you were speaking now was for him, once healed you'd go back to your silence.Â
You pushed those thoughts out of your head and focused on the job at hand, his skin was mottled, purples, reds and yellows covered almost every inch of him and you couldn't help yourself as you snapped at the blonde sitting next to him. "Are you proud of yourself?" She looked shocked. "Y/N" Ruhn croaked out, a slight tinge of warning in his tone but you continued anyways, healing as you went. "All you do is destroy things, break things, look at what you've done to him!" You could feel your power thrumming in your veins. Ruhn's hand grabbed your arm, stopping your movement, your eyes met his momentarily, warnings swam in his gaze. "And still he defends you! You must be really good on your back." That was the final straw. "Enough!" Ruhn's voice was clear now, even though it took everything left in him to make it so. "Dec can finish healing me Y/N. Go." He pulled you back as you went to leave. "Don't ever speak to her like that again. I won't hesitate to send you back to the Witches."
You span on your heel and left the same way the others did, you didn't stop in the kitchen where they were, you carried on through the back door and ran, you made it halfway down the huge lawn of the safehouse before you crashed to your knees and screamed, fists hitting the ground and it split from the impact of your power. Thunder crashed and rain poured, wind whipped around you in a fury and still you screamed, screamed until your throat was hoarse and you could scream no more. Only the storm remained as you dragged yourself to your feet, you were exhausted and there they all were, watching from the window. Ruhn leaning on Lidia for support, her leaning into him for comfort, you watched as Ithan pulled his arm out of Flynn's grip and ran at you, shifting as he went. You couldn't go back into the house, not yet, not while they were awake, not while Ruhn was looking at you like saving you was a big mistake. Thankfully the rain hid your tears. You turned away from them, from your friends and ran despite the exhaustion towards the forest that loomed at the edge of the garden. You could hear Ithan behind you and you heard Lidia say "Leave her Ruhn, the wolf has got her."Â
You ran until your legs gave out and you crashed to the forest floor, you didn't even attempt to save yourself, to put your hands out to soften the fall, you just let yourself hit the floor. You sobbed as you pulled your knees into your chest. Ithan was tall as a male, big even, as a wolf he was massive. He curled his wolf form around you as best he could, trying to bring you any ounce of comfort he could and you sobbed into his fur. Ruhn's voice floated into your head. "Come back." You ignored him. "Y/N, come back to the house." You ignored him again. "You said you wouldn't stop speaking to me." He tried again, sounding more irritated with each attempt. "I can't." You finally answered, even in your mind your voice sounded pathetic and you could've sworn he sighed into your mind. "Can't speak to me or come back?" You tried your best to stop your voice from breaking but it did anyway as you replied. "I don't want to talk anymore. It was better when I was silent. I can't come back, not when you looked at me like you should've left me with the Witches." There was silence for a minute and his voice was gentle now. "Please come home, I need you with me. I need someone I know is real." You couldn't keep the sound of your sobs out of your mind anymore and they flowed into Ruhn's head like a river as you croaked a reply. "You have Lidia. I got her out for you." And then pushed him out of your head before he could respond.Â
How you'd fallen asleep on the forest floor in the middle of a storm you'd never know, you had a sneaking suspicion your body had just given out on you. You woke as someone pulled you into their arms. Your eyes shot open and Tharion's eyes studied you. "Oh little one, what have you done to yourself?" He asked, a thumb brushing along the grazes on your face from where you'd hit the floor. "He hates me." You whimpered. "Who?" He asked, genuine confusion filling his voice. "Ruhn, he wishes he never saved me." Tears spilled down your cheeks again. "Ruhn's worried about you, little one, we all are." You shook your head. "He hates me, he's going to send me back to them, he's got the sister he wants now." You whimpered again. You were still exhausted, so you didn't fight, you just let the Mer carry you back to the house, you feigned sleep, burying your head into Tharion's neck.Â
"Leave it, Ruhn, not now." Tharion's voice was full of warning. "Is she okay?" You heard the prince ask. "She ran through the woods barefoot, she exhausted her power to help you and then pushed past that when she lost it, she's got grazes all over her face and arms and thinks you hate her, she thinks you'll give her back to the witches, what do you think?" Ruhn didn't respond and you knew he was following Tharion up the stairs, they both stopped again and you felt a kiss be placed on the back of your head. "I'll fix this, Little Witch." Ruhn said into your hair and you watched over Tharion's shoulder as he walked you towards your room, Ruhn entered his own, Lidia stood in one of his t-shirts, wrapping her arms around him and you watched him relax in her embrace. Your eyes met Ithan's still in his wolf form and you could've sworn the wolf looked sad for you.
You'd convinced your two fierce protectors to leave you, to let you be alone, sleep was not coming easily even though exhaustion was eating away at you. You sighed and checked your phone and found 3 messages. The first and second from when you ran, the third from 5 minutes ago.Â
Tristan Flynn: Screw him, Dec and I will always love you.Â
Declan Emmett: I'm here for you, Y/N. We all are. Flynn and I will always love you.Â
Ruhn Danaan: I fucked up. I know I fucked up. I'm fucked up. You were there when I was ready to break, you kept me fighting. I don't deserve something as good and as innocent as you, my sweet little witch but I'm too selfish to give you up. Even after I said those despicable words to you tonight I asked you to come back, told you that I needed you after I broke you not even an hour before in defense of your sister. I know you saw her in my room, you forget you've slept in my bed, I know how you breathe when you truly are asleep, she's not here, she got changed in here and found one of the spare rooms to claim as her own. I wish I could explain what it was like down there, why Lidia did what she did to me and why I defended her like I did, but it isn't a story for me alone to tell. I'm so sorry for what I said to you. I'd never send you back, never. There's nothing you could ever do to make me want you anywhere other than at my side. I hope in time I can earn your forgiveness but I fully expect you to make me earn it. Until then, please know, I belong to no one but you.Â
Tears were falling down your cheeks again but you had to see she wasn't there for yourself, you smoothed Ithan's shirt that you had decided to sleep in instead of one of Ruhn's unable to face it, and padded as quietly as you could down the hallway, phone in hand to his room and pushed the door open. His head shot up and his eyes met yours. His bruises still made you cringe, they covered his face, his neck, his chest and you were sure even further. He said nothing, he stayed where he was, sat on the edge of his bed, waiting for you to say anything. You raised your phone, making your intent clear as his right arm moved to search the bed for his, he didn't once stop looking at you.Â
You: Do you really mean that?
Ruhn Danaan: Yes. I'm yours. I have been since the first time I found you in my bed, wearing my t-shirt, clutching another to your chest. Your hair all over my pillows like a halo. I was too blind to see it then.
Ruhn Danaan sent an image.Â
It was you, fast asleep in his bed, exactly as he'd described.Â
Ruhn Danaan: My beautiful, sweet, clever, brilliant, powerful, funny little witch. I was done for when you said my name for the first time. I'll earn your voice again. I'll earn your forgiveness and I'll give you everything. You'll never be caged again.
You threw yourself at him, arms wrapping around his neck as he pulled you with him as he fell back onto the bed. Your head finding a home in between his shoulder and jaw. His hands running soothingly up and down your back. He broke the silence a while later. "Will you stay with me?" He asked gently and you nodded, rolling off of him to climb into to bed as he grasped your wrist. "Wear one of mine?" He murmured as he pulled at Ithan's shirt, you smirked as he said. "I don't want you covered in another males scent while in my bed."Â

poly!ruhnlidia headcannons (sort of?)
warnings: mild violence, drinking, light sexual content, oral (f!receiving), minors dni!
a/n: I tried to keep this spoiler free for hofas, but read at your own risk! I have so many more ideas, please let me know if you'd like to see a part two!
going on a date
Theyâd never been on a picnic before, and you decided it was an absolute travesty, a crime, really.
Picking the park closest to your apartment, you filled a wooden basket with everything you could think of.Â
Ruhn, of course, was delegated to carrying the snacks. Lidiaâs fingers intertwined with your own, her hand warm and steady. Youâd chosen to leave before dawn, although they protested getting out of bed, you wanted to avoid as many crowds as possible.Â
Finding the area you'd scoped out earlier in the week, half hidden by a few trees, you spread the blanket, placing the basket in the center.
You held a grape between two fingers, glancing at Ruhn sitting opposite you.
"Catch," you grinned, giving him a few moments to process before tossing it in the air, slightly off to the left. His hand darted out, palm closing around - somehow not crushing it. "With your mouth," you clarified.
Lidia observed for a few moments, watching the two of you throw them further and further away from each other, diving across the blanket, knocking over random things. Eventually, she decided to join it. Turns out, she was very good at it - better than the two of you, and held it over your heads.Â
âDo you want a trophy?â his tone had a bitter edge, but his mouth curved into a smirk. His fae senses werenât quick enough to keep the next grape from hitting his temple, courtesy of Lidia. Â
As the sun crossed the horizon, Lidia leant back against Ruhnâs chest, your head propped on her lap, her fingers running through your hair, nails putting the perfect amount of pressure into your scalp.Â
moving in together
The three of you took things slow, the decision to move in together taking several months. But, once you did, they encouraged you to customize the space, to add your own touch to it.Â
You looked at the wall adjacent to the window, still bare - no art or decorations.Â
âWhat are you thinking?â Lidiaâs arms wrapped around your waist, her chin propped on your shoulder. You covered her hands with your own.,Â
âWe could add a painting up there,â you murmured, hesitantly, judging her reaction. Â
She gave you a light squeeze, âI love that idea.âÂ
The next day, Lidia came home with an assortment of paints and brushes. You glanced between them and her, eyes wide. âWorst case,â she shrugged, âwe cover it up.âÂ
ruhn taking you to get your first tattoo
âYouâre certain about this?â He asked, for the thousandth time.Â
âYes,â you groaned, squeezing his hand. Somehow, he thought he was a bad influence. It made no sense to you - youâd wanted a tattoo for ages.Â
âCalm down,â you cast out to him. The artist looked a bit on edge, given Ruhn was bristling next to you with each dig of the needle, each slight wince of pain on your face. You watched him force his shoulders to relax.Â
âWhy donât you get some food for us?â You said, aloud this time. It wasnât really a suggestion. His brows flicked up, but he left, with a warning look at the artist. Your eyes rolled.Â
âI saw that,â his voice flooded your mind. Â
âGood.âÂ
A low chuckle came through, hinting at a promise of something else later that night.Â
later that nightÂ
Arms wrapped around your legs, warm hands spreading them open.
âTell me what you want,â he kissed the inside of your thigh.Â
You squirmed, ignoring his teasing laugh. âYou know,â you breathed.Â
âTell me,â his eyes met yours, a hint of that damn Fae dominance that always sent shivers down your spine.Â
âYou," your hands tightened around the sheets. "Gods, Ruhn. I want you.âÂ
âAnd how do you want me?âÂ
âPut her out of her misery,â Lidia drawled, âor I'll do it.âÂ
Ruhn took the challenge, his tongue running slow, painfully slow, strokes, driving you to the point of madness - nearly to the point of begging. You felt the pressure, then two fingers inside of you, curling up to hit that spot, just as his lip ring ran over your clit.Â
Fingers threading through his hair, you screamed loud enough the neighbors could probably hear.Â
an hour laterÂ
âOfficial Aux business,â Flynn grinned, eyes darting between the three of you. Lidia leaned against the counter, looking thoroughly unimpressed.Â
However, your face turned red - already having an idea of what it was.Â
âWhat is it?â Ruhn grunted.Â
âWe got a call,â Flynn sounded too pleased by this, âsounded like a female screaming. They called for a welfare check.âÂ
Ruhn's hands pushed against his chest, shoving him out the door and slamming it in his face. Footsteps and laughter trailed down the hall. He picked up his phone, dialing a familiar number.Â
A too-cheery female voice answered, âyes?âÂ
âNext time, Iâm calling the 33rd on you,â he snarled. A beep and he disconnected.Â
getting into a fightÂ
You were pissed. Beyond belief.Â
This male wouldnât leave you the fuck alone, and you knew your temper would start getting the best of you soon. A journalist, probably, given he couldn't stop badgering you with questions about Ruhn and Lidia.
They werenât exactly overprotective or domineering assholes, theyâd taught you how to defend yourself (more than you already knew) and respected that you could handle most situations on your own.
âLeave. Me. Alone,â you snarled, shoving the male's chest. He, rather dramatically, flew back a few steps. Maybe youâd put a bit more force than necessary into it.Â
âShe hit me,â he yelled, attracting a few glances from people nearby. The bartender looked at him, then you, and rolled his eyes. You shot a tight smile back. His mouth parted, a look of alarm on his face, but the alcohol dulled your senses enough you didnât see the punch coming in time.
The situation was taken care of rather quickly, the male thrown out of the White Raven none too gently, and you were led upstairs by another one of the bouncers, your friends trailing behind. You shot them an apologetic look when the rope snapped in place, keeping them downstairs.
âIâm fine,â you mouthed.Â
You slumped into a seat, a different bartender, someone you knew from school, sliding two fingers of whiskey in front of you.Â
âI give it five minutes,â he joked.Â
âFour,â the female working the other end called.Â
You grasped the cold glass, tilting your chin to let the cool liquid burn down your throat, leaving a comfortable warmth in your chest.Â
âIâd say three,â you finally added, glancing at the clock.Â
Sure enough, about three minutes and seven seconds later, thundering footsteps came up the stairs, preceding both Ruhn and Lidia.Â
Riso had probably called both of them before the conflict even occurred, he always had a sixth sense for trouble.Â
Lidiaâs hands gripped your cheeks gently, turning you to face her. You felt the purple bruise blooming on your temple. âLetâs go,â she murmured, her hand gripping your arm gently, tugging you to your feet. You swayed slightly, gripping the counter for balance.Â
âLidia please,â you pleaded, but her arm wrapped gripped behind your thighs, effortlessly throwing you over her shoulder.Â
At least you took the back exit out, Ruhnâs shadows obscuring your group, saving you from some public embarrassment.
âAre you okay?â She asked, after you'd made the few blocks trip home, sitting you down on the couch. Ruhn already had an ice pack wrapped in a towel, holding it up to the side of your face.Â
âFine,â you muttered, avoiding her gaze.
âWhat happened?â She pushed gently, one hand resting on your thigh. Ruhn moved with you as you threw yourself back, flinging your arms over the back of the couch, and snorted. He responded to Lidiaâs glare, indicating she did not find this funny at all, with a shrug. Her lips pressed in a tightline, but she turned her attention back to you. "Tell me," her voice was soft, sweet. A tone she usually only used with you or Ruhn, and one that worked on you every time.
âHe wouldnât stop asking questions about both of you. A journalist probably.âÂ
On instinct, you switched your gaze to Ruhn, spotting the brief flash of guilt.Â
âDonât start,â you pushed one finger into his chest. He wrapped his own finger around it, tugging your hand to rest in his. âI knew this would happen," you insisted. It was true, as soon as your relationship went public, everyone had questions, and too many people felt entitled to answers.Â
He pressed a kiss to your knuckles instead, his other hand still holding the ice pack steady.Â
âI wonât. Who was it?âÂ
âItâs been taken care of,â you said quickly. Sure, heâd annoyed you, but you didnât want him to bare the results of two overprotective vanir. âHe looks worse,â you added.Â
âOh Iâm sure,â Lidia caught your attention, a look of approval on her beautiful face.
