The Truth
Haarlep x F!Tav
Summary: They were like oil and water, constantly bickering and mocking each other's every move, acting as if they hated one another.
Notes: Haarlep is written as a male in this one. This is about Lofn my Tav and Haarlep but I wanted everyone to enjoy it so I didn’t name her in it <3
*ੈ Enemies To Lovers | Bickering | Raphael Is Annoyed | Making Out
Sitting in his archive, Raphael looked up from the contact he was attempting to write out. He could hear his little mouse and incubus bicker yet again…
“Fine!” She shrugs her shoulders and turns her back to Haarlep.
"Fine," he muttered, nonchalantly raising his own shoulders and crossing his arms, "It's quite amusing you know, how you boast about your intelligence yet swiftly metamorph into an ignorant imp when confronted with the truth."
She rolled her eyes, her lips curling into a smirk, "It's adorable how you resort to petty insults, but I suppose it's easier to belittle others than to face your own shortcomings, isn't it?"
They were like oil and water, constantly bickering and mocking each other's every move, acting as if they hated one another.
She turns back to look at him slightly only to stick her tongue out at him before walking away. Haarlep can’t help but to tilt his head to the side to glance at her, she was really leaving!?
Just as she was about to leave, Raphael entered his boudoir, "Could you enlighten me as to the significance of this commotio-“
She swiftly took hold of Raphael’s arm, her arms entwining with his, “oh thank goodness you’re here,” she pointed at Haarlep, “Please remove this creature from my sights!”
Raphael’s nose scrunched at her words as he gazed at the incubus, “What did you do?” His voice was low, his hands meeting with hers as she clung to his arm.
“I? Bahaha” Haarlep’s tail flicked around restlessly.
Haarlep's wings unfurled slightly, a defensive posture that was more for show than a real threat. "I did nothing more than speak truths that delicate ears cannot handle," he retorted with a sardonic grin. His gaze was locked with hers, a silent challenge passing between them.
The little mouse huffed, her cheeks puffing out in indignation, "He was being insufferable, Raphael!”
Haarlep couldn't help but observe the tightening of her grip on Raphael's arm. The incubus wore a knowing smile, shaking his head in response to her acting, possessive behavior. It was clear to Haarlep that she was caught up in her own delusion, unable to face the truth they both knew. The truth that she harbored genuine feelings for him, a mere incubus, rather than the infamous devil known as Raphael. And it was this denial that had led them into this situation they found themselves in.
Haarlep cocked his head at her, “The truth is like a sharp blade, capable of cutting through illusions and revealing the raw reality beneath, aye little mouse?”
Releasing Raphael’s arm, her lip twitched, “Truth!? Ha!” Waving her arms up she stormed out of the room.
The two watched as she huffed and left the room, her heels clicking down the hall, echoing as she continued down the corridor.
"It seems as if my words struck a chord," Haarlep mused.
Raphael scowled, "I’ll deal with you later, and I implore you to maintain silence when around her. She’s a valuable asset that I require.” With that, he was gone.
As she stormed down the halls of Raphael’s domain, she huffed and spoke to herself, “admit it, he says!” She moved her hand to mimic talking, her voice twisted to mock Haarlep’s, “Why don’t we play a game and you give yourself to me, he says! Ha!” She rolled her eyes, turning the corner.
There in the hallway, the incubus was leaning against the wall. A sly smirk crossed his lips as she halted her stride. She scoffed and shook her head, moving to walk past him. Just when she was almost cleared of him, he grabbed hold of her waist and pressed her back against his chest before wrapping himself around her fully. His wings like a protective fortress, shielding her from the storms of life and providing a comforting embrace. She turned to glare up at him, her cheeks dusted with a pink hue .
He nuzzled his head into her hair, “Hmm, I think we both woke up on the wrong side of Raphael today-“
“I appreciate your apology, now let me go.” She wiggled in his hold.
“Bahaha, apology? Dear girl, I do not apologize.”
“Just stop talking, your voice is only going to upset me more,” she continued to wiggle about.
His tail wrapped around her wrist, bringing her hand up to his face, he pressed her palm into his cheek. Her breath hitched as his fingers caressed her own. He swore he could hear her heart quicken…
He leaned in, his chin resting on her shoulder, his voice low, husky, and teasing, "Oh my dear little dove, what is it you want?”
She could feel her body grow warm, the hairs on her neck and arm standing, “not you.” She murmured.
Haarlep couldn't contain his laughter, "Of course, how silly of me." His tone was laced with amusement, his body vibrating against hers as he held her close, "You can't deny me your feelings forever.” He closed his eyes, relaxing in her presence.
She turned her head, their faces inches apart, her eyes soft matching her voice, "and you can't always get what you want..."
The incubus smiled and opened his eyes, his hand cupping her chin, he leaned in closer, his lips brushing her own, "so it seems with you, but I can always try."
Her eyes were transfixed on his lips, her breath coming out in shallow pants, her voice but a whisper, "Haarlep..."
"That's my name..." his lips brushing hers as he spoke. His smile was devious as his lips pressed against her own, the taste of her was all too intoxicating… Haarlep knew she could feed him for days, fully satisfied.
She didn't fight it, she couldn't. The kiss she had been wishing for all this time was like a drug and she was hooked. Her eyes fluttered shut as she succumbed to him, her arms wrapping around his neck.
They kissed as if the world around them was falling apart. His lips were demanding, taking control, stealing her very soul; in a way that was more poetic than literal, he didn’t wish to see her fall by his hands.
He pressed her against the wall, his tongue exploring her mouth, intertwining with hers. Their breathing intertwined as his fingers weaved through her hair while she pulled at his. They groaned and gasped, her body pressing against his. He gently bit her lip before they parted, a thin strand of saliva linking their lips. With a chuckle, he licked his lips, observing her closely, and the flush of red on her cheeks elicited a contented purr from him. His tail gently stroked her hip and thigh.
She was so soft…
The urgency in his eyes softened to a tender warmth that acknowledged the depth of their connection. She stood there, breathless and vulnerable, yet enveloped in the profound realization that amidst her facade, she truly did find an oasis in Haarlep’s arms.
He brushed a stray lock of hair from her face, tucking it behind her ear with a gentleness that contrasted his previous urgency. His tail still caressing her sides.
"Play a game with me, little dove?"

She needs firewood. The barren Coerthas is freezing with hardly any foliage, it’d do to be prepared. Kindling. A compass. Maps. Rope. Fifty fulms? Maybe a hundred. To be safe. Her sleeping bag’s tied and ready in her room, as are the travel rations, and a special pack made by the Head Chef. A whetstone? Extra cartridges, maybe.
Apples?
Kiaran is brought from her mental checklist - the same she’s worried over thrice now - as she realizes there’s a basket before her apartment door, brimming with crisp, red apples. Her heart sinks. Another gift from Lofn? Another pass at her by Grimar?
Her fingers dig into her jaw, willing the muscles that tense there to ease as she sets to approaching with newfound caution. The basket’s plain; the apples fresh. Try as she might, she spots no note beside it, and it’s with some reluctance she crouches to examine them closer without going so far as to pick them up.
No sign of their origin is made apparent. It is the fifth gift left at her doorstep this week - though the first, she muses, to go unclaimed. It is becoming a trend she is tiring of. Rapidly.
“If they’ve not the courage to deliver it themselves, to look me in the whites of my eye as they do...” It is a murmured complaint as her elbow braces against her knee and her fist, against her jaw, her eyes lidding as she stares at the apples.
It is fortunate timing that further down the hall, a door opens, and one of the company’s retainers steps out. There is brief eye contact. A polite smile on her part, a subtle nod on Kiaran’s.
“Did you happen to see who left these?”
The retainer’s clearly off-put by the fact Kiaran actually addresses her and it’s with some seconds of staring that pass before she gets her wits about her.
“O-oh, yes, actually! Ah... The odd fellow who never takes off his helmet.”
This news takes a moment to sink in. Balgair Rutherford. Some small part of her wishes to correct the woman. Mister Rutherford is, perhaps, the furthest one from odd in their whole little company. Thoughtful too it would seem, even if he unwittingly stumbled into what was fast becoming a pet peeve.
“Mm,” It is a sound that escapes Kiaran only after some beats. “Thank you.”
She gathers up the basket as she rises to her feet as she finds the key to her door. The apples will be stowed, the supplies for the hunt gathered, and Mister Rutherford thanked properly, in that order. And so it is Kiaran sets back to her tasks, heart a little lighter... Though not before affixing a simple note to her door.
Hand gifts off in person please.
