you’ll find me on my tallest tiptoes, spinning in my highest heels, love, shining just for you

Books: Hot Couture; Crimes of Passion Pairing(s): Marco Di Vincenzo x f!MC (Analise Moore); Marguerite Thorne x f!OC (Charlie) Words: 1,444 Category: Spicy fluff Rating: Teen+ AO3 link here Summary: Upon moving to New York City, Marguerite interviews for a job as a fashion designer. A/N: This was inspired by @choicesbookclub's CoP II, Week 2 prompt "We know that there is at least a TRR connection in the CoP universe, what other books are you hoping to see, or books you HC are connected for your creations?"; also for @choicesjuly2023challenge 'fashion'

The early morning sun peeked through the curtains, casting a golden hour glow on Marco as he sat on the bed, talking with Analise, who was finishing her makeup in the en suite bathroom. Few people could match her level of composure while swimming in anxiety. 

“What if everyone sucks?” She asks while keeping a straight face, so she can skillfully complete her eyeliner. 

“They won’t, mi amore. You will find another designer to help us prepare for London Fashion Week, I promise.” Marco stood behind Analise, placing his hands on her shoulders and kissing the top of her head. She took a deep breath and leaned back against his chest. “We already have you and Hazel as senior designers, so you have a strong start to the design team. I have no doubt you will be able to find a junior designer of the caliber you deserve.” 

“How do you always know exactly what to say?” Analise smiled. 

“I am Italian, mi bella, I know how to romance you,” Marco whispered in Analise’s ear, sending shivers down her spine. 

“If you keep talking like that we’re going to be late,” Analise whispered in response. 

“Mmm, I take it that is not the impression you want your interviewees to have of you as an employer?” Marco kissed Analise’s neck right below her ear, softly nipping at the skin.

“Uh, no…” Analise answered distractedly.

“Are you sure?” Marco spinned Analise around so she faced him, placing his hands on her waist.

She looked up at him, looking not at his eyes, but at his lips. Unable to give a verbal response, she simply leaned on her tiptoes and closed the distance between their lips. Marco wasted no time picking her up and sitting her on the bathroom counter, to which she swiftly wrapped her legs around his waist. 

---

Marguerite slowly moved her lover’s arm from around her waist, trying not to wake her up. She then slowly got out of bed and quickly changed into the outfit she had laid out in preparation the night before. She was attempting to style her messy hair when she heard Charlie groan.

“Leaving already?” Charlie asked, propping herself up on her elbow.

“If I can get my hair to cooperate, yes.” Marguerite reached for the stray bobby pins on top of her dresser. If she could at least get her hair out of her face, she might be able to pull off a ‘messy chic’ look. 

“You sure you can’t stay just a little longer?” Charlie sensuously flipped her long, auburn hair over her shoulder, exposing her bare chest.

Marguerite looked back at Charlie and distractedly attempted to place a bobby pin in her hair, accidentally hitting her scalp a little too hard. She rubbed the spot on her head as she turned around to look back in the mirror and finish fixing her hair. It wasn’t her best look, but she pulled it off. She’d ask Charlie to confirm, but knew she couldn’t get an unbiased answer from her. “I’m sorry, love, but this is an important job interview.”

“It’s a fashion design job, can’t you be fashionably late?” Charlie smiled at her pun.

“As much as I wish I could, I’d rather not risk it.” Marguerite walked over to the bed and chastely kissed Charlie on the lips. “I’ll be back soon, love.” She dashed out the door and walked the few short blocks to the METAMORPHOSIS headquarters as fast as she could in her heeled boots, which admittedly, was quite fast. Drakovia had trained her well.

---

On his lunch break, Marco visited Analise in her office while she was between interviews. Her door was open, but he saw her talking with Luz, no doubt about the candidates they’d interviewed so far. “Ciao bella, am I interrupting?”

“No, what’s up?” Analise smiled. 

“Just wanted to check in and see how the interviews are going.” Marco leaned against the doorframe, admiring the beauty of his girlfriend.

“Not bad, but, I don’t know…” Analise looked at Luz. “No one’s standing out.”

Luz nodded in agreement. “I know what you mean. They’ve all been fine, but not exactly what we’re looking for.”

“What exactly is it that you’re looking for?” Marco asked. 

“I want someone with a bit more elegant of a style. I’m pretty balanced in my own style, but Hazel leans more edgy, so it’d be nice to have someone balance us out,” Analise answered. “All of these designers have more modern styles, but I really want someone with something a little more classic and vintage.”

Marco sighed, when he heard the click-clacking of heels on the floor, coming towards Analise’s office. He looked down the hall, seeing someone he didn’t recognize. He turned back to Analise, “I think your next candidate is here and her style looks quite elegant. Regal, even.” 

Analise smiled and said, “Ooh, okay, go away then, so we can interview her.” 

Just after Marco left, Marguerite entered the office. “Hi, I’m Marguerite Thorne, I’m here for an interview.”

“Yes, have a seat.” Luz gestured to the chair in front of Analise’s desk.

“I have to say Marguerite, I was very impressed with your portfolio and rather intrigued by your resumé.” Analise pulled Marguerite's resumé out from the stack of papers in front of her.

Marguerite blushed. “I know my resumé is rather sparse, and this would be my first time working in The States, but I would love the opportunity to learn from you and Hazel.”

“I appreciate that.” Analise smiled. “Where do you get your inspiration?”

“Well, I used to get a lot of my inspiration from my family, but now that we’re so far apart, I’ve started getting inspiration from a lot of other places as well. I’m, uh, friends with a writer and recently we’ve been collaborating on some outfit designs for their characters, which has been pretty fun.”

“That sounds so cool,” Luz said.

“What kinds of characters are they? Like, what genre do they fit into?” Analise asked.

“It’s a fantasy, so the designs are a mixture of royalcore and adventure.”

“That explains the regal themes of your designs.”

“Yeah, that’s… part of it.” Marguerite’s heart thumped as she hoped they wouldn’t ask any more questions about that. She didn’t think her royal history was the best topic of conversation for a job interview. Anything more than what was on her resumé was off-limits.

“What would you say is your biggest strength?” Analise asked. 

Thank God, Marguerite thought. “I’m independent. Given the, er, circumstances of my upbringing, I learned how to be independent. But not so much that it’s a problem! I can work well in teams and groups too, I just… don’t have as much experience with that. But I know as a junior designer I would be following your and Hazel’s lead, which I can totally do.”

“Independence is good. What about your biggest weakness?”

“Does understanding Americans count? You all confuse me sometimes.”

Luz and Analise laughed. “You and Marco would get along. He doesn’t always understand us either.”

“Marco is the Italian photographer, yes?” 

“Yes! It’s nice to see that you know about our staff.” Analise smiled to herself.

“I’ve been a fan of Hazel’s work for years and I loved your line at Paris Fashion Week,” Marguerite confessed.

“You saw our Paris Fashion Week line?” Analise asked.

“Yeah, fashion is a huge passion of mine, and since I’m fortunate enough to be able to afford international travel, I try to go to as many international fashion shows as I can.”

“That’s awesome,” Luz said. “And you pretty much already answered our question about why you want to work at METAMORPHOSIS, unless you have anything you’d like to add?”

“No, I think that’s pretty much everything.” Marguerite laughed lightly.

“In that case, do you have any questions for us?” Luz asked.

“Uh, when can I expect to hear back about your decision?”

“We’ll let you know within a week, maybe two at the most,” Luz answered. “Anything else?”

“No, that’s all, I think.”

“Well, thank you so much for coming down here today. We’ll be in touch.” Analise stuck out her hand, which Marguerite shook graciously.

Marguerite took a deep breath as she exited the building. Probably not the best interview they’d seen all day, but not bad. 

“I want to hire her.” Analise turned to Luz as soon as she could no longer hear Marguerite’s heels on the stone floor.

“I know, she’s so cool! We should still sit through the rest of these interviews just in case, maybe come up with a second pick, but I think Marguerite is our girl.”

Book: Crimes of Passion

Two months, six days, a hundred and two minutes and seven hundred minutes.

That’s how long Nerea Rose had been in Drakovia, and not one friend she had made. Sure, there were groups and people she had things in common, but she didn’t seem to have her crowd.

If one didn’t count Juliana Georgescu, but everybody got along fine with the countess. What a life she must lead, Nerea thought. Nevertheless, it seemed that power and wealth had a price, for her mothers had found her a suitor. The Crown Princess, no less. Absorbed in her own thoughts, she bumped into someone, dumping coffee and books all over the place. A small curse in Drakovian was spit, and Nerea did her best to apologize in an accentuated Drakovian “My apologies, I did not see you at all! Please, let me help you—,” She froze in place when she caught sight of the brown skin, dark eyes and glasses “Y-Your Royal Highness! Do forgive me—,”

A thread of apologies began between them both “It’s alright,” he answered in perfect English “I was quite absorbed myself. I did not hurt you, did I?”

“I could ask you that myself! Good heavens, your jacket is ruined! Here, let me…” He put his hand on hers and smiled reassuringly.

“I wanted to get rid of it eventually. I should’ve seen you—,”

As she collected her last book, when she saw the face of the poor man she trampled, recognition and shame came upon her “Oh my, I’m so sorry, Prince Vasili, I should’ve known—,”

He chuckled “Do not fret, I should’ve seen where I was going as well. I suppose we were both distracted.”

She shook her head “No, I should’ve seen where I was going, and now my latte is all over your surely expensive coat!”

He helped her up “Nothing a good rub won’t fix. Please, allow me to walk you to class and buy you a new latte. My treat.” He smiled, and my, what a beautiful smile that was.

“I can’t ask you that—,”

“I’m offering. Besides, I’m afraid my espresso is all over your beautiful dress too. My lady mother would be mortified if I maimed such a beauty. You are…? A beauty like yourself must have a name.” He extended his hand.

“Nerea. Nerea Rose.”

His grip was firm, yet gentle and warm, welcoming even. His eyes swept her before they too widened in recognition “Ah, I’ve heard about you! The American genius who has been travelling throughout Europe’s best universities. Your thesis on the advantages and abuses of AI was formidable. Truly a work of art. My siblings got tired of my gushing about your nuances and the way you expressed it. Not even professionals ten years ahead of you could’ve explained it as well and as richly as you.”

She blushed deeply and bit her lip “I’m glad someone appreciated it. I’m afraid my father didn’t understand much ‘technological mumbo jumbo’ and my sister couldn’t even finish it because the language was too complex.”

He smiled “Shame. It’s a true work of art. Do tell me, what brings you to Drakovia?”

“Well, since I’ve dipped my toes in technology and martial arts, I was thinking of getting a masters on Classical Languages: Latin, Greek, Ancient Egyptian, the works.”

Vasili looked at her, delighted “I am a humanist myself. Not many scientific minds appreciate the arts and humanities. Science may give us answers and make us advance as humanity, but it is art that nurtures the soul.”

Nerea smiled fondly “That’s what my mother used to say.”

Vasili frowned “’Used’?”

Nerea fidgeted with her fingers “She disappeared. Police assumed since she was a Romani—despite her ID clearly stating she was Andalusian—she just escaped with a lover, which she would never do.”

Vasili made a face “To hear the injustice in America is one thing, but that is too far.”

“Not to mention blatantly racist. But it was long before I could even have a conscience, so there isn’t much to do save do her proud, wherever she is.”

“You already have.”

She looked at Vasili, touched by his words, but before she could say something, the professor called “Ah, Miss Rose! Do come in, we have been waiting for you.”

“Your Highness—,”

“Please, just Vasili.”

“Very well, ‘just’ Vasili. I’ll see you around.”

During the small recess, as she walked around the campus, enjoying the small sandwich she made and the unusual sunny weather in the cold Drakkos, she spotted a little boy with gorgeous green eyes towards her. She smiled at him “Hello, sweetie! Are you lost?”

She noticed he held a bonbon, and made a gesture to give it to her. She chuckled “That’s sweet, darling, but I can’t. It’s yours.”

The boy insisted, his eyes making that face that made her melt. She sighed, defeated “All right, all right. I’ll take it. May I give you a thank you huggie?”

Wordlessly, he hugged her and she smiled, and a minute later, he took off to his bewildered mother. She gave her a smile. Just because this wasn’t the first time that a child smiled at her or even went as far to go to her didn’t mean it was strange. A good strange, but strange nevertheless.

“Nerea!” Juliana called.

She turned around and strid to the countess, who seemed to hold court with a few of her classmates. Many of them observed her curiously “What was all of that about?”

Nerea shrugged “I don’t know. It’s not the first time, but it’s still… odd.”

While Vasili did not have many friends, the ones he did were genuine and quite interesting. It was nice, hanging out with people who were as smart or nearly smart as her, not feeling for once like she once set the room quiet with a scientific joke.

As she observed her new group, her eyes stopped on Juliana, and as she talked and interacted, something in her body woke. For a moment, she lost her breath and one voice in her head told her that something terrible would happen to her. Then, it was gone.

When she opened her eyes, Vasili had steadied her and looked at her concerned “Are you alright, Nerea?”

“I… It’s nothing. Silly stuff of mine.”

“It didn’t seem like nothing.” He insisted.

“I just… I got a gut feeling that said that something terrible would happen to Juli. Stupid, right?” She chuckled, brushing it off.

They all looked at one another, obviously creeped out. She excused herself, going to the bathroom. After taking a few deep breaths, she washed her face, and that’s when she observed that Juliana had followed her.

She turned around, and observed that the countess observed her closely “How often do you get these gut feelings, Nerea?”

“Not very often. Only when a tragedy is bound to strike.”

Instead of looking at her like a madwoman, she leaned close, intrigued “Such as?”

“Before my mother disappeared or my Uncle Jimmy died, I got the same gut feeling. I suppose I also know when someone’s trouble.”

She nodded “And you got a feeling that I may be in trouble?”

She shrugged, “I suppose. I know it sounds ominous, but it’s yet to fail me.”

She placed a hand on her shoulder “I will keep it in mind. Thank you, Nerea. You’re a good girl.” 

As they came back, they had begun a debate about what prompted the child’s behavior. “…That was amazing! Children are a great judge of character. Has it always happened?”

“Since I turned sixteen, yes. I suppose I’ve always had a wide maternal side and connected well with children. Many stared at me when I’m out, for some reason.”

Vasili added to her surprise “That is a scientific proof that you are beautiful. I’m afraid I’m not children’s favorite prince.” He shrugged, “Trystan and Bas are.”

One of their friends clapped the prince’s shoulder, remarking that he was the group’s favorite by default. Nerea shyly said “Just because children don’t tend to look at you doesn’t mean that you aren’t handsome. It’s… what, one fact among many? I’ve seen gorgeous people who were awful to children.”

Vasili looked at her with interest before smiling “You have a point. You’ll fit well amongst us, Nerea.”

Christmas finally came around the corner, and Nerea had packed everything when she decided to look outside the window… to find it all covered in snow, even some cars! She turned on the news as the weather guy kept talking about how it’d be snowing like this throughout most of the winter, making it impossible to get out of the country. Her phone ringed, and of course, her flight had cancelled due to said weather. Sighing, she sat down and put her head in her palms, letting out a grunt of frustration.

Just then, Vasili called her. He rarely called, preferring text over call. She picked up, intrigued “Hello?”

“Nerea! I suppose you’re on the plane back to New York?”

“Nope. My flight got cancelled due to the weather, and I have nothing but yoghurt and ramen on the fridge. Why do you ask?”

He cleared his throat “Well, I was on the way home when the snow trapped my car, and your house is just above it. Perhaps I could… crash in there? Until they clear out the road, that is.”

She flushed. For months now, she had developed a complicated crush with Vasili, and the idea made her flustered “O-Of course! I’ll open the door for you. It’s—,”

“Portal 26, second floor, door 3B. I remember, Nerea.”

She smiled “Good. See you then. Hope you like cheap ramen.”

She hung up, looking at herself in the mirror, fixing her hair and spraying the special ‘Amor Amor’ perfume by Cacharel and putting on some lip oil before going to the kitchen, pretending to be preparing dinner.

The door closed behind her, and a snow-covered Vasili stepped into her view, his glasses foggy and covered in specks of snow, as well as his coat and boots. She beamed for a minute before giving him her usual friendly smile “Please, take off your shoes and coat! The heater is right there,” she pointed “and the guest room is next by mine. It’s not a palace, but it’s comfy. Can you tell me if there’s warm bedsheets there?”

Vasili obeyed the host, leaving the damp shoes by the door and hanging the coat and craned his head to the small but cozy guest room. He called out “All clear! Thank you, Nerea. I didn’t know who else to call.”

“You’re my friend. I’m happy to help. Please, sit.”

It was then when she took off her eyes from his face and noticed the large bag. She raised her eyebrows “What is that?”

“Ah, well, Marguerite had asked for Thai takeout, but I suppose that is no longer an option…”

She smiled “I love Thai. Here, let me plate it.”

“May I help?”

“Sure! Cutlery is in there.”

They both plated the Thai food and went to her desk, which was a gateway to the kitchen, and chatted animatedly about what they had been looking forward these holidays. Soon, they exchanged holiday-themed childhood stories “…Poor Nina. Swallowing snow sounds unhygienic.”

Nerea laughed “Curiosity killed the cat indeed. Despite my warnings, she didn’t listen, and we had to hospitalize her. Ever since, she listened to me more often. Well, as often as an eleven-year-old could.

They chuckled “Your sister sounds like quite the character. You must miss her.”

A pang of sadness washed over her “Very much. I’m bummed I can’t see her now. It’s… my first Christmas outside the US.”

Compassion could be read all over Vasili’s face “I can’t imagine how hard that must be. Is there any way I may be able to make it amenable while I’m here?”

She shrugged “It’ll be weird, to not cook an entire feast for the family. We always spent time with my father, sister and the Ginovesis. I’d make my special dish of huevos rotos, followed by migas and my stellar homemade turrón. I do have the ingredients here, but not an audience.”

Vasili gave her an amused look “What am I, Nerea, chopped liver? I’d be happy to be your audience.”

She shook her head “I can’t ask you that.”

“You’re not. I’m offering.”

She smiled widely “All right. But you’re helping, mister! Number one rule of the Rose Christmas; you want to eat; you have to earn it!”

He teasingly made a military salute “Aye aye, Captain!”

For two hours, they cooked, an intimate synchrony between them that neither could explain as the food was made, a certain unaddressed intimacy between stolen glances, the occasional hand brush, and how each looked at the other’s body. Especially the lips.

At last, the food was made, and they dug in, and Vasili seemed to hold back a moan of delight when he tried the huevos rotos. “Mm. The richness of the egg, the meat and the softness of the egg yolk is simply divine, and the spices really give it a kick. You truly are a talent at everything you do.”

She blushed “Thank you. I was nervous that it wouldn’t be to your tastes…”

He chuckled “I may be a royal, but I am capable of appreciating the simple things in life. And this is too delicious to ignore because the ‘commoners’ eat it as well.”

Nerea smirked “It has been a while since we’ve considered royalty some sort of demigods.”

“Thankfully so.”

They clinked their glasses, Riojan wine sparkling red “To family.”

“And those close to your heart.”

Smiling wide, they drank and kept talking and exchanging tales “You’re telling me that Patryk dared Kaspar to put on the prime minister’s underwear and streak across the building in it? No offence, but gross.”

“Not as gross as mudpies. That poor guy.”

“Hey! In my defense, he cheated on me!”

Vasili looked at her intensely “A crime indeed. Such a shame that beauties like yourself don’t get appreciated. If you were mine—,” His eyes shoot wide, and he cleared his throat “Apologies. It seems like the wine made me overstep.”

Nerea must’ve been affected by the wine, for she surprised herself when she blurted out “If I were yours, what would you do?”

He took her hands in his, an intense look on his face making her gasp “I’d worship you day and night. I’d give you the world. Every other woman would cease to exist.”

“Vasili, that is—,”

The strong wind slamming open the window interrupted the moment. Bolting up, the both rushed towards the window, where both forced it closed and panted, the effort being visible, as well as the tension of the moment.

“Whew! I need another glass after that.”

“I’ve had enough alcohol. I could use the turrón, though.”

She let out a breath “Coming right up.”

The morning after, Nerea had overslept due to the many glasses she ended up drinking. She remembers Vasili taking her to her bed, taking off her make-up and pulling the covers so she wouldn’t be cold.

She woke up and, remembering she had a guest, quickly brushed her hair with her fingers and checked her breath. Smelled like wine, of course. Taking a mentos from her drawer, she looked for something cute yet discreet. Ignoring her headache, she lifted her head and tried to have a pleasant smile on her face.

Coming out of her bedroom, the sight before her gave her heart flutters: Vasili had his shirt half-open, his hair was messy, and he was making breakfast. It smelled delicious. He seemed to notice her presence and smiled widely “Nerea! Please, do sit. I’ve made the liberty to make, ah… what do you call it? Pankays?”

Nerea chuckled “Pancakes, and it smells divine.”

He gave her a wry smile “I’ve decided to give it a Drakovian twist. It’s not as good as yours, but I believe it is how it’s done.”

He gave her the plate, and their hands brushed again. He cleared his throat “Look, about last night, I didn’t want to overstep, but… I like you, Nerea. Very much. You draw my eye like no other, and of course, you don’t have to return my feelings, but—,”

“I do return them,” she interrupted.

His gaze lifted, what it seemed like hope “Truly?”

Armoring herself with valor, she struts towards him and gave him a small peck. For a moment, he was surprised, and next thing she knew, he was kissing her passionately, a throaty moan escaping him. Next, her hands were on his hair and shirt, completely forgetting about breakfast. She chuckled “I probably reek of alcohol.”

“I rather like the taste of cherries and wine. A very sophisticated mix,”

He lifted her up with surprising strength, and she chuckled as he kissed her neck, gently dropping her to her bed. He looked at her like he was a hungry man and she was his last meal on earth. Taking off his shirt, he climbed towards her and whispered “Do you want this?”

She nodded frantically “Yes,” her voice was hoarse with desire.

He smiled devilishly “It is a good thing we haven’t eaten yet. What am I about to do is not fit for a full stomach.”

Their lips locked again, and as the sun came up, only them and their rampant tension seemed to exist for a few hours.

As in that day, Nerea didn’t feel so alone in Drakovia.
