Hi! Can you do a what it would be like to date Billy Russo/Darkling/Logan Delos/any other of Ben's characters post?

Hi! Of course, thank you for asking 😊 this got a little more fic like than I intended 😳

I think it's pretty gender neutral overall (except with the Darkling and his Tsaritsa)

Dating the Darkling / Billy Russo / Logan Delos / Caspian / +Sirius Black (because why not? 😇😈😉)

note: I have not seen much of Westworld so I'm making a lot of assumptions about Logan

Dating the Darkling

The biggest problem with him (from a matchmaking point of view) is his immortality.

I don't think he would even entertain the idea of being with someone who's not as powerful as he is or doesn't have the potential to be. He has seen enough people die to learn to not get attached to mortals.

When he realises he found his equal, he fights tooth and nail to get them. It's not necessarily love at that point, more like a desperate fixation, rooted in fear of being alone forever.

He charms you effortlessly.

Yes, he manipulates and lies or tells half-truths when it suits him but he means no harm with that (at least not to you).

Slowly he starts to truly fall in love and lets his guard down, so much so that fragments of the truth slip here and there and his Milaya starts to put the pieces together.

When his secret is out and he gets confronted he kinda guilts you into giving him another opportunity with things like "Would you have given me a chance if you knew?" and "I was so afraid to lose the only light in my life after so many years of darkness."

He makes promises to you that he's not sure he can keep

He is crafty and diabolical if he needs to be but seducing you (even more) takes all his efforts because you are on your guard now.

It takes a long time to get you to trust him again but he is patient and after all, you have all the time in the world.

He feels a weird excitement in corrupting you ever so slowly until you fall for his charms again.

He seals the deal as soon as he knows he has you.

Aleksander marries you a week within the proposal.

A few years go by and you get stronger than ever. Together.

You mature over this time and you see through your husband more and more but the war also hardens you and you start to see things his way, meanwhile, he gets a teeny tiny bit softer (in his old age - you joke) but that all fades away in a moment if anyone threatens you or puts you in harm's way.

The Tsar's last mistake is to try to assassinate you when he begins to fear your husband's power and influence.

Aleksander starts a war for you.

He planned this for a long time but wasn't prepared to care for you or for your life to be threatened like this.

So all his carefully planned strategies go out the window and he uses his power to claim the throne.

His darkness consumes him and he makes some bad decisions but for the second time since you met him, you drag him out of the shadows and this time you take your place beside him as his equal.

His Milaya becomes his Tsaritsa.

Aleksander never tries to control you again and you find your way back to the freedom you never realised you've lost.

Your relationship changes after that.

No more fear or darkness, no more pointless deaths for your kind. You lead your people to a better future and stay on the throne with Aleksander for many centuries.

People come and go in your life but he is constant, always there for you as you are for him.

It takes a toll on you though and you wonder how he managed to live so long without going completely insane.

That thought led you to bond with him even more, he learned to be completely honest with you (when it mattered, a little white lie never hurt anyone).

After you've created your prospering nation, you founded the basics of an equal society where the people would govern and chose their own fate.

You retired from people, tired of watching them wither away and lived your happily ever after with Aleksander, secluded from most of the world but happy that you never have to fear losing him.

Dating Billy Russo

Billy doesn't want to let anyone close to him, at the same time (deep down) he is yearning for love, appreciation and acceptance but he has issues™ so I don't think he could get involved in a real relationship with any of his flings.

You start out as acquaintances. Maybe you meet via your job or a common friend. The attraction is there and he flirts, oh he flirts but nothing comes of it for a while.

Let's be honest, you'd have to be at least a little fucked up to have a chance with him. Like calls to like but hopefully you are different enough to balance the crazy and get something good out of it.

He'd go for someone who is a challenge for him and you develop this bickering, flirting mess of a friendship.

But it would take a lot more for him to let his walls down. Oh who am I kidding, he never would, not consciously.

He was abandoned and hurt too much to let even a crack in on his fortress of walls around his heart but eventually, you manage to sneak a peek of the real him here and there.

It's during your first really nasty argument that he realises likes you likes you.

You call on his bullshit. Maybe he was lying to you or a jealous fit of rage came over you and you'd throw all your frustration at him, unintentionally revealing how much you know the real Billy behind all that facade and just how much you care for him.

The argument turns into angry sex. He kisses you like his life depends on it. It's wild and rough and everything you dreamed but you chicken out the morning after and leave before he wakes up.

He is pissed and determined. No way you have a chance against Billy Russo on a mission. He wants you and he's gonna get you.

You avoid him like plague, asking advice from Frank on how to handle Billy but you only get a laugh and a 'Good luck with that'

You decide to hide at Matt's place for a few days but it's the worst you could do because Billy was always jealous of your relationship with your lawyer friend.

So Billy finds you in no time. He just marches in beside Matt, who is holding the door wide open for him with a barely contained grin, and Billy cups your cheeks, smashes an aggressive kiss on your lips then simply bends down and throws you over his shoulder, taking you down to his car like it's an everyday thing to do while your protests are left ignored.

You try to talk to him, apologize, reason with him but he is just fuming in silence all the way to his home.

It's when you ask if you could just forget it happened and go on as you did before that gets him to react.

He's still angry with you, but you don't flinch when quickly grabs you by your neck. You know he would never hurt you. He doesn't say anything for a while, then his hand sneaks to your nape and he rests his forehead on yours, taking a deep breath and trying to calm down.

When he collected himself a bit, he looks into your eyes and says the one thing he never thought he would say to anyone. Ever.

Those three words take your breath away, you only notice you are crying when he wipes your tears away.

You make love all night long, not willing to let go of the other.

He wakes you up with caresses and kisses, has his way with you in the shower again and makes you promise you would meet him at his office after work.

Billy arranges a date at a fancy restaurant. You enjoy the night but you convince him there is no need for any of the fuss. You agree that this feels fake and you'd rather want something real, a relationship on your own terms.

For the next few days, you're only home to get a change of clothes and it's not even a week after that that Billy convinces you to move in with him.

It's fast and it's crazy but it works and both of you are happy.

The thing is, if Billy Russo truly loves someone it's bordering on unhealthy obsession, he is prepared to give them anything and everything and is desperate to keep his love by his side.

He spoils you, still, you have a hard time getting used to it but it always warms your heart to see how happy he is when he can do it so you make a deal to let you return the attention.

He is just as uncomfortable with it as you were but you slowly start to develop something that resembles a healthy relationship and it's more than either of you imagined you would ever have.

He still keeps some secrets but he trusts you with his heart.

Frank often jokes that you stole his best friend, and in a way it's true. Billy has a connection with him, a brotherly bond but most of the time he still has his walls up with Frank, not with you though.

You get to see Billy Russo for who he is and he only loves you more for accepting every single wicked part of him.

Dating Logan Delos

It's a slow, slow, slow, slow burn

A spoiled, rich little bastard with issues™ like Logan would also be hooked on someone who turns his advances down at first, who can't be charmed with money or his ridiculously handsome face and boyishly charming smile.

He takes you to Westworld with an 'I can't wait to see who you are when you let go'

Logan is really disappointed when you decide to dress like a cowboy instead of a hooker which he vocalises more than once

You say you get on a dress like that if he can last the rest of the time here without sex

He really contemplates going into that wager but he'd rather try to get into your pants here than in the outside world so he passes up the opportunity

And he really tries

This is work, not vacation time. You remind him every so often when he wants to tempt you to do something fun.

When he says something really offending after a couple of days, like how much of a stuck up bitch you are

Your response is something among the lines of 'Why? Should I just fuck and drink all day long like you? I can't see how's that different from what you do outside.

It's a challenge and he wants to prove you wrong

He lets William drag you on an adventure but you part ways with his soon to be brother in law when he finds the girl and wants to play hero

You really don't like any of this? Never wanted to shoot anyone? He asks out of a sudden when you are about to play bandits.

I can think of one. You answer with less animosity than usual and he takes it as a good sign even though you just threatened him

You start to play the game more like Logan. You play like there are no consequences and it's kinda nice to let out your frustration

When you meet William again it gets ugly because Logan is determined to pull his not friend out of his delusion

After Logan cuts the girl to demonstrate how unreal she is, you tell him to let it go because you can see William is still holding on to that belief and it kinda freaks you out

You don't see Logan for a while after you return from Westworld

You are invited to the party where William gets the company and all the credit for his insight into the deal about Westworld

It pisses you off and you look for Logan but he is not at the party

When you find him he is in a really low place, he's drunk and taking drugs and he is so out of it you are pretty sure he doesn't know where is he

You take him home and wait until he sobers up

Do you know what I hate about you the most?

Fuck, why don't you kick into the man when is on the ground?

I hate that you have everything you need to be what I know you dream to be and you still waste your life like this.

You reach out to take the glass of whiskey from him and he gives it to you with a teary-eyed look that breaks your heart

He sleeps in your bed that night and stays with you for a while

You help him stay sober

and help plan how to take back his father's company, you are both ruthless businessmen after all and it's kind of fun

When he gets what he wants it doesn't feel like a victory though

And it takes a while for him to realise he doesn't want any of it but he's not gonna throw away what you both worked hard for

That's the thought that breaks the news for him that he wants you, not for a night, or for a few occasions but for as long as you'd put up with him

For the first time in his life, he doesn't know how to approach someone he is interested in

He figures he will go the safe route and involve you in business

Late nights and business dinners, lunch and even breakfast meetings involved where you talk work about less and less

It's you who make the first move

After a long night you spend at his office you invite him for a drink when he takes you home

He sleeps in your bed like that first time you took him in

Logan wakes up before you and gently caresses your cheek to wake you up

Thank you. When he sees your confused expression he elaborates. For not giving up on me.

You don't answer, you just kiss him.

He is frozen and you panic but it only takes a few more moments for him to register what happened and he pulls you back to another kiss.

It's surprisingly gentle, just like the rest of the morning when he explores you and slowly makes love to you.

Neither of you acknowledges in words what happened or that you are in a relationship. It's an unspoken rule to leave it all unspoken.

Behind your confident facade, you are both insecure and this all feels too fragile. You are both afraid to ruin it.

The fear fades away but after that, you don't need to put your feelings into words or give your relationship a label.

You become so intuned to the other that it feels unnecessary.

It's not after a long time when you say out loud that you love him and it's not a romantic confession either.

He tries to make amends with his father but he gets home really broken and refuses to speak about it. You let him finish his drink, then you take the glass from him and settle in his lap.

Enveloping his face in your palms you wordlessly ask for his attention.

Whatever he said he is wrong. Logan argues that you don't know how the conversation went but you say you have a pretty good idea.

Fuck him. You don't need him. If he can't see how much you are worth and how you've grown then he is not worth a single second of your time. I know it's not the same as having a family but I love you and I'm here for you.

You don't even realise you've said it and his gaze darts to yours with an unreadable expression so you panic again like the first time you kissed him but he silences your doubts with the most passionate and desperate kiss you ever shared.

I love you. Logan says when he pulls away. You are my family now.

Dating Caspian

Whether it's love at first sight or an engagement alliance he would treat you the same, with kindness and respect.

Caspian would try to get to know you first so don't expect more than a kiss on your hand for a while.

He would compliment you but couldn't take one without blushing which you find amusing.

After losing your (nonexistent) patience you would be the one to kiss him first to see his reaction.

First, just on his cheek as a goodbye and you glance back at him to see the blush, the stunned look and the cute smile as he touches the spot your lips met his skin.

Then you get bold and steal a kiss, it's really just a peck on his lips but it changes things. He leans in and captures you in a less appropriate kiss that leaves you breathless and blushing.

You are there for him when he has a difficult day and spend most of your free time with him.

You ask him to teach you how to fight and take you with him on his adventures. He is hesitant but you prove to be a quick study and quick on your feet in dangerous situations.

Caspian finds you in the library or the gardens each day and lays his head in your lap to enjoy your calming presence as you let him rest and brush his hair until he falls asleep.

You often stay like that for hours, not minding anything as long as you can be with him.

After one of these sessions extends into late at night he insists on escorting you to your room. As you kiss goodbye it gets more heated and you both get carried away.

That is the first time you get more intimate than an unmarried couple should.

He sneaks out of your room each night and you both yearn for the secrecy to be unnecessary but you try not to get your mood down.

If you are not of his world then he dreads the moment you have to say goodbye but you are determined to enjoy every moment you can while you are still there.

If he is about to lose you he is ready to fight even Aslan to be able to be with you. Given the choice, you abandon everything you know and stay with him in Narnia.

He marries you after a few months of knowing you.

You do your best to learn everything a queen should know and you are always by his side if he needs you.

Not once in your many years of marriage do you regret choosing to be with him. There are hard times but you are always there for the other so nothing ever seems hopeless.

Narnia lived its Golden Age under your rule and your love became a legend, the kind that every girl dreams about where you find your soulmate and live happily after with the love of your life.

Dating Sirius Black

Pretty boy is a mischievous womanizer so to get his attention and turn it into something permanent requires the 'no factor' again

Maybe you are Slytherin and he just hates you in principal, maybe you are a forbidden fruit as one of his friend's sibling or you are just shy and can't deal with his flirty nature at all.

Whatever 'the problem' is, it just screams no to him which results in Sirius doing anything but backing down

Despite being really smart he is somewhat a dumbass when it comes to relationships

He does all the wrong things, says some stupid things that he wishes he could take back.

The enemies to lovers situation get really nasty before feelings are revealed

After a failed attempt to charm you, he goes to sulk in some secluded location and you happen to stumble upon him. After an awkward moment of silence, you ask why he keeps pestering you and it just slips out without thinking: Because I'm in love with you

You are shocked, to say the least. He takes advantage of your frozen state and struts all the way to you, cups your cheeks and practically begs you to say something

Not able to find the words, you just pull him down by his collar and smash a kiss on those perfect lips of his.

You make out for long minutes then he pulls away and rests his forehead on yours. Be mine? - he asks.

I'm already yours. You answer easily before you go on to continue where you left off and you can feel him grin into the kiss.

Dating Sirius is a roller coaster.

His friends find it hilarious that you can make Siri blush, they soon get you involved in their jokes and you are almost one of the boys

He gets you involved in some of his tricks. You argue over his bullying Snape and you are terrified for him when you find out what he does on the nights of the full moon.

If you want to become an animagus he'll try to help you but he also keeps teasing you whenever he can throughout the process

Doesn't matter what you turn into, there will be jokes about it.

You study together but he doesn't really need it and after a few times when he gets annoying because he is bored you make your own little corner of a world with Undetectable Extension Charm

He's the one to suggest making the Marauder's Map because he is annoyed that he cannot find your hiding place.

It takes a while to figure it out even with the map

It's not often that you let him in there but you share the Room of Requirement more often after that

You break up every so often but it usually doesn't last long before you are back together like nothing happened.

The only time your relationship is in real trouble is when you insist that he should talk to someone about how his parents treat him. He knows you want the best for him but it is a sensitive subject so this time the argument and the breakup lasts longer.

He really hurts you when you see him with someone else and he knows it but for some reason he wants to hurt you because he is hurt, his friends can't take that either and pull an intervention where (after a lot of yelling and a short fistfight) Sirius tells them what's going on.

That's just before the summer he moves in with the Potters.

He writes to you every day. The distance and the honest conversation helps but you are still wary, it's not until you meet again that it gets resolved.

When you go back to school and come face-to-face with him, it's like nothing matters anymore. You jump into his arms and shush him when he apologizes again and again.

Your relationship is not perfect, you still argue but it's nothing serious. You love each other and made a pact to never part in anger so even when things get heated and you don't have time to discuss it, the last words you say to the other before you go on your separate ways are that I love you.

Secret affairs

Pairing: Aleksander Morozova x fem!grisha! reader Summary: Rumours and whispers are circulating in the Little Palace that General Kirigan has found himself a mysterious woman with whom he spends his nights. One morning Ivan learns that the rumours are true. Fedyor will not rest until he finds out who their Black General's new lover is—who is the one who makes him much less grumpy. Requested by: @drinix (I AM SOOOO SOOO SORRY THAT IT TOOK ME AGES! BUT I HOPE YOU WILL LIKE IT, HONYE!!! 🖤🖤🖤🖤) Taglist: @aoi-targaryen @chelseyyouraverageluigi @watersquirtpewpewboomm @summersummoner-pat Aleksander Morozova's Masterlist ~•♤♤♤•~ Main Masterlist

One morning, Aleksander sips his coffee and looks through the reports Ivan has just delivered to his desk. He has a meeting with his colonels in a few minutes, and he's struggling with his lack of sleep. At least this time, he has a better reason to stay up late than answering letters and planning new battle tactics.

He smiles, remembering the night he spent with you. He runs a hand over his jaw, trying to shake the thought of you beneath him. How you trembled at his every little touch, the sweet sounds you made as he struck your most sensitive spots with pinpoint precision, how wonderful you looked sprawled out on the bed, a clean, quivering mess as he tasted you to his liking…

"Forgive me, General, but I can't find your kefta." Ivan's voice snaps him out of his thoughts. Aleksander absentmindedly picks up the reports again, knowing full well that he has to read them before he goes to any meetings, and, ignoring Ivan a bit, mumbles under his breath, asking him to repeat what he just said. "I can't find your kefta, sir."

"My kefta?" Aleksander repeats, surprised. Ivan has never had any problems with this simple task before. Suddenly he remembers why his heartrender can't find his keft. "I must have left it at hers." Aleksander mutters under his breath, unaware that he is saying it so loudly that Ivan can hear him.

Heartrender frowns and stares at his general in shock as he casually takes his reports and heads to the main war room for a meeting.

As soon as Ivan enters the room, he meets the questioning gaze of his beloved. Feydor immediately notices how pale and nervous Ivan has become and that his heart is beating a little faster. He decides to ask him what happened. And a few hours later, Ivan confirms to Feydor the rumours that have been circulating in the Little Palace.

General Kirigan had a secret affair.

"I can't believe it! Him?" Alina's whisper reaches you as you sit down at the table right next to Fedyor.

"Who are we gossiping about? The healer who almost broke a bone in one of the Inferni yesterday while so-called healing?"

"No. Ivan couldn't find the general's kefta this morning. And when he told him, he mumbled that he must have left it at HERS. Do you understand? At HERS. HER. SHE. A WOMAN."

"Yes, Fedyor. I understood at first time when you said it." You laugh at his excitement about this new rumour.

"No you don't! You don't know what it means if you are not at least as interested and excited as me or Alina." Fedyor informs you in a very serious way.

You roll your eyes at his foolish behaviour and looks at Aleksander who is coming into the great hall. In his black kefta.

"No way! It must be someone from the Little Palace! Look at him, he is wearing it now! Someone had to give it to him." Fedyor whispers conspiratorially to the three of you, staring at the general.

You raise an eyebrow at him, amused when the man quickly feigns interest in his food as Aleksander's gaze falls on the three of you. He nods at you and leaves the room.

"Sorry, duties." You say and take an apple from the table. "Try not to interrogate everyone around you about the general's new beloved. She may get embarrassed or scared and leave him and he'll become a pain in our asses again." You tease him and leave him and Alina to discuss this new revelation.

You walk quickly through the hallway of the Little Palace, practically running after Aleksander. You burst into his war room and before you can say a word, his lips are on yours.

You moan softly, surprised by the suddenness of his kiss. You tangle your hands in his hair and hum against his mouth as he slips his tongue into your mouth, pinning you against the door. You’re breathless as he practically devours you, drinking in all your moans and whimpers of pleasure as his large, strong hands caress the cheeks of your ass.

"I was thinking about it since I left your side." He mumbles, pressing small kisses to your jaw. You sigh, digging your hands into the collar of his kefta and pushing him away from you with a heavy heart, but you have to get the message across to him before you get lost in each other again.

"You have to be more careful. Fedyor got something out of Ivan and knows you have a mistress."

"So you are my secret mistress now?" He asks, chuckling against your neck. You bite your lip as his beard teasingly grazes your neck, plump lips nipping at your skin.

"Call me that again and you will be comming back from my chamber to yours all naked." You growl, but your threat carries little fear as Aleksander begins to unbutton your own kefta.

"You wouldn't dare..." He mumbles against your skin and all you can do is tug on his hair in retaliation as he traces his marks across your collarbone and moves lower, approaching the valley between your breasts.

"So sure?" You gasp, trying your best to remain intimidate to him, but it is a challenge when his fingers work so smoothly in undressing you.

"Uh-huh." He mumbles and kisses you again, this time more forcefully than last time, making your legs buckle slightly. He holds you tightly by the waist and lifts you up, navigating through his room and laying you on his bed, which is filled with books.

"I... um... sorry. I should have cleaned up here." He mumbles to himself and throws the books to the floor in his haste. You laugh at him and grab his arm.

"I don't mind... besides it will be quite hard to explain why you suddenly clean your rooms without any suspicion about this new lover of yours." You tease him with a smirk, but he doesn't seem to share your good humour at all.

He's lost in thought, stroking your cheek with his thumb thoughtfully and not responding to your teasing, just staring at you sprawled beneath him, shadows slowly creeping out of his control and draping over the foot of the bed.

"Shouldn't we... make this official?" He asks, staring at you with those night-dark eyes of his. You shiver, surprised by his question.

You try to swallow the lump in your throat and control your slight panic attack as he continues to stare at you, waiting patiently waiting for your answer and searching your face carefully for any reaction.

"What for? That's... quite a comfortable... deal we are in. Besides, I don't want them to talk that I am your second-in-command just because I slept with you. And I thought you liked that our relationship is strictly private and well... not to anyone's eyes?"

"Yeah... yeah, I do. You probably are right. Having you in the darkness is much more entertaining than in the daylight."

You know from the way he frowns slightly that this isn't the answer he was expecting. But if anything, Aleksander is a pathological people-pleaser. So he doesn't say anything about his true feelings about the secrecy of your relationship and instead leans in for a kiss.

Which subconsciously makes you feel incredibly guilty.

"Come here... let me help you relax, moi soverenyi." You moan against his lips and straddle him, deciding that this afternoon you will serve your general.

But no matter how many kisses you press into his skin, how many marks you leave, or how many times you make him moan your name, you still feel a burning feeling of guilt inside.

You try with all your might to focus your attention solely on giving him as much pleasure as possible, but your thoughts involuntarily wander to his proposal. You weren't ready to show the two of you to the world yet. You weren't ready for the judgemental looks from others. You'd rather everything stay the way it was. Just you and Aleksander, your little secret, stole kisses and nights between each other's sheets.

You were completely happy with that. But as you can see, your Sasha wanted more.

And you weren't entirely sure if you could give it to him now.

You wake up blissfully aching. Aleksander's shadows float across his bedroom, obscuring the entire room, blocking out any sunlight. You turn your gaze to the man whose chest your head rests on.

You smile, watching the sleeping shadow summoner. It's rare to see him so... calm, rested. Unable to stop yourself, you run your hand along the line of his jaw and gently cup his bearded cheek. You stroke it with your thumb, drinking in his appearance, enjoying every tiny hickey you've left on him.

You lean down and kiss him sweetly, slowly, unhurriedly, enjoying the softness of his lips and the roughness of his beard. Kissing him had always been a surreal feeling for you. Sometimes you couldn't believe that you could actually press your lips against his and declare your claim to the most powerful Grisha that existed.

You feel him start to wake up as the kiss continues. He wraps his arms around you and holds you tightly by the waist, rolling you so you're straddling him as he kisses you passionately, hungrily. You sigh into his mouth, feeling his manhood press against you as if last night hadn't worn him out.

You run your hands over his chest and slowly settle yourself on him. You sigh as the head of his cock slowly opens your soaked walls. It feels so good and so damn full, as you settle yourself completely on him, as you become one. You bite your lip and hold your breath as he sits up, wrapping his arms around you tightly, digging his fingers into your back.

"Y/N..." He murmurs into your ear and kisses his lobe. You sigh, feeling him perfectly fill every little space of you.

"Morning." You gasp as he pushes you onto your back, hovering over you. He sucks hickies on your neck, mumbling quiet good mornings against your skin as he lazily thrusts into you.

You wriggle and moan beneath him, trying to press yourself as close to him as you can. There’s no space between you as he claims you with every thrust, destroying you for any other man. You sigh as he presses his lips to yours, kissing you possessively, stealing your breath with each deep, hard thrust into you.

He trails his kisses down your neck. His beard tickles your skin as he caresses your lips. You moan his name loudly as he suddenly sucks onto your breast.

He smiles evilly against your skin. Aleksander revels in the way you dig your nails into his shoulders as he works tirelessly to please you. He loved seeing you like this. Hair tousled against his black sheets, eyes closed from the rush of pleasure, mouth open in a quiet moan of his name when all you could think about was him. That was when you felt truly his. And it was a pleasant change for him to know that someone belonged to him, that he owned someone. It was just a shame he couldn't claim you in the sunlight as well.

A sudden movement in the war room makes you both freeze. Aleksander stares at his bedroom door and instinctively raises his shadows, causing them to wrap around the two of you defensively.

"General, we got a report from the west border with Fjerda..." Fedyor's voice trails off in the realization as the heartrender realizes he hears two heartbeats in Darkling's bedroom. Two fast heartbeats. "I... um... should I come later?"

"Preferably." Your lover responds, still on his guard.

You listen for Fedyor's footsteps and sigh in relief as he walks away. You laugh uncontrollably, which earns a soft chuckle from Aleksander. His heart heats up as he watches fondly as you laugh beneath him at the absurdity of the situation.

"Oh my dear saints. He's going to be so determined to find out who you're hiding under the sheets."

"Yes... probably." He replies. You frown thoughtfully, but you quickly distract yourself when he moves again. You moan, biting your lower lip and digging your fingers into his arm as he reaches deep, hitting that weak spot inside you that sends tingles throughout your body. "But you'll manage, right, milaya?"

You nodded, unable to utter any coherent sounds. He smiles pure evil and continues to pound into you at a punishing, rapid pace. You bite your lip, almost drawing blood as you try not to moan his name too loudly in the darkness of his chambers.

Yep... you definitely loved your stolen mornings with him.

A few hours later, you smile to yourself as you pack your things. Due to suspicious activity by the Fjerdans on the border, Aleksander decided to go and see for himself what was going on. You were supposed to be on the lookout for Morozova's stag.

Despite the sudden events of today, you couldn't just forget about the morning spent with him. The thought of it made you blush, and a smile appeared on your lips. Lost in thoughts about the shadow summoner, you didn't even register when Zoya entered your room with a packed backpack.

"Oh saints, you had sex!" You jump suddenly at her excited squeal and stare at her like a deer caught in the light of a hunter's torch.

"I beg you pardon?"

"You had sex! You're glowing, relaxed, and oh my, you're blushing like a teenager! Who's that? Do I know him? Handsome? What order is he from? Or maybe it is she?" She bombards you with excited questions. You hide your face in your hands, not wanting to watch her wicked smile as she settles on your bed, staring at you intently.

"I... have no idea what are you talking about."

Before you can somehow defend yourself from her accusations, you are interrupted by a knock on your door. Fedyor enters with his things, all excited, with Ivan hot on his heels.

"Y/N, you won't believe it! He really does have someone! You have to tell me if you saw anyone in the corridors leading to his quarters last night when you were leaving his chambers after the night briefing. Remember every detail, I need to know everything."

"Y/N had sex with some mysterious lover." Zoya briefs Fedyor before either of you can add anything to the man's long rant.

Ivan raises a surprised eyebrow at you, silently analysing the information in his head. You see the gears turning in his head, and as he connects the dots—as Alexander's closest confidant after you—he blushes. You shake your head slightly, staring at him as Fedyor and Zoya exchange gossip. He swallows and nods silently. You note it as a problem for later and turn your gaze to the two excitedly gossiping Grisha.

"I can't believe it! You too?! Who is it?! With your busy schedule with Kirigan, I didn't think I'd have time to find anyone, but here you are. Is it that handsome inferni? The one who's going on the mission with us and has been hanging around you for ages?"

"I… would prefer to keep my… boyfriend's privacy for now. It's a quite new thing, we're… testing if we're a good fit." You stammer, explaining yourself, knowing full well that you can't deny these two for long. They would have known the truth anyway. You're terrified of the moment when they realize that you and Aleksander are something more.

"Oh, I understand that perfectly. Ivan and I went through the same thing, right, honey?"

"Yeah..." Ivan mumbles thoughtfully and continues to stare at you in shock. However, Fedyor is too lost in his conspiracy theory to pay attention to his significant other's behavior. For which you silently thank the saints above.

Eventually, you all gather up and head for the stables. Zoya and Fedyor mumble something to each other in the front, and you and Ivan follow. You decide that this is a good time to approach him and ask for discretion.

"You know, don't you?" Ivan stares at you for a moment, then nods silently. You swallow hard, nervously playing with the sleeve of your kefta. “Listen… can we keep this between us? I… I doubt it’s a good idea to talk about all this now. He doesn't need to have such rumours running about us in the Little Palace."

Ivan nods at you, agreeing with your words. But you can see that something is bothering him. For a moment he grits his teeth in silence, but then he mumbles under his breath, barely audible.

"He seems… less tense. Less worried." You blush along with him. You clear your throat and turn your gaze to the walls of the corridors you pass, thinking of a… neutral response to his observation.

"I... I guess he is."

"I think… I want to say… it's good that he has you." You look at him in surprise, almost tripping on the exit steps as he says this. The blush deepens on your cheeks as you think about what he told you. "Everyone needs their own Fedyor."

You smile, seeing his gaze on his other half. And perhaps for the first time you see that they actually fit together, and Ivan is worthy of your best friend. You wonder involuntarily if Aleksander looks at you like that when you don't see...

"Yeah... I think you are right. Thank you, Ivan. You are a good friend. For both of us. Well, mostly to him." You say, referring to Aleksander. Ivan nods in silent agreement.

This strange harmony between you seems to be going strong. You are united by one goal. The good of your shadow summoner.

The four of you reach the stables. Alexei - the inferni, who as Fedyor mentioned was supposed to join your mission and had a crush on you quite openly, runs up to you quickly. But your eyes and attention are focused only on the general. Or rather, on the general and his sun summoner, as other Grishas maliciously called it.

Your blood boils, a strange feeling of jealousy hits you like a hunter's shotgun hits an animal, and you can't even do anything about it as Alina is clearly flirting with him. All you can do is stand there and try to swallow the bile of jealousy with dignity as Alina adjusts the collar of Aleksander's kefta. He somehow senses your burning gaze on him, but you quickly turn away and mount your horse without even waiting for his reaction.

He's lucky you're not official yet. And that it'll be hours before you can calm down before you can talk to him in private. But you're starting to understand why keeping your relationship a secret no longer works for the Black General. Especially when you see the way his jaw clenches when you laugh at some joke of Alexei's, causing the young inferni to give you lovey-dovey puppy eyes, to which you wink back.

You may have been cruel, but the knowledge that your lover was as jealous of you as you were of him calmed you down a bit and lifted your spirits. And if by any chance you made sure that Alina rode with you and away from Aleksander during the journey, that wasn't intentional at all. Not at all.

"So... Ivan knows." Aleksander comments as you lay in his tent, wrapped in his arms.

Ivan stood guard over your small camp while the rest slept. You decided to take the opportunity to sneak in on your shadow summoner to share the revelation. And maybe just a little to steal a few kisses and hugs from him.

"Indeed." You mumble, playing with his fingers that are slowly dripping shadows.

You bring one of his fingertips to your lips and press a small kiss there, which makes Aleksander's heart melt even more for you. He tightens his grip around you and presses a tender kiss to the top of your head before resting his bearded cheek on it with a small sigh.

"Well... sonner or later Fedyor will figure it out too. It's just the matter of time."

"Maybe... that's why I want to enjoy you in privacy for as long as I can." You prop yourself up on your elbow and lean in to steal a quick kiss. You pull away from him with a smile, but you frown, not finding any of the malice in his eyes that he would normally have at this gesture. Something was wrong.

"Y/N... Don't you think that's enough? We've been going around each other for a long time. I think the rest should know about us." A cold shiver runs through you at his words.

You try to control your heartbeat, but you know perfectly well that you are no longer able to hide your emotions from him so well. He knew you as well as you knew him.

He knew that you were not exactly keen on making your relationship public. That is why you cannot lie and pretend that it is not so. You have to convince him to change his mind somehow... but how?

"But it's so sexy to have you all to myself, a secret from everyone. Don't you love the thrill every time we sneak around each other for a kiss or something more?"

"I like that. But I don't like that I can't hold your hand outside the four walls of our chambers. I don't like that I can't go up to you and kiss you when you look so lovely after training with Fedyor or Zoya. I don't like that I have to watch others flirt with you and touch what's mine. I don't like that I can't make your cheeks blush in front of others. I don't like that I can't look at you for as long as I want without suspicion. I don't like that I can't play with your hair during particularly boring council meetings. I don't like that I have to hide the fact that I love you."

His confession hits you harder than any punch Baghra had ever given you during training. You swallow hard and kneel down next to him, watching him carefully as you try to process what he’d just told you.

"You... love me?"

"I do. And if it is not enough for you to make it public... I don't know if I can go on like this anymore. I don't know if I can keep my trembling hands from reaching for you in the light of day, not just in the darkness of night or my shadows. I need more. I need all of you, Y/N."

You stare at him, utterly shocked by his sudden confession. His words both overwhelm you and warm your heart, but it's not enough to quell the panic rising within you.

Because as much as you want to be his, as much as you want him to be yours, you know that the members of the Second Army won't look so... favourably on your romance. Besides the public opinion... you're afraid that once the thrill of excitement and mystery wears off, Aleksander's feelings for you will fade dramatically and he'll realise that you're not a good match at all and that Alina would be a better choice for him.

"I... it's hard for me... to give you an answer now." You mumble, watching anxiously as his brow furrows, face darkening as he retreats back into his shell and tries to hide his true emotions from you.

"I thought it should be easy. You either want me or not."

"I want you." You respond quickly, reaching out for his arm in panic and holding it in a tight, almost bruising grip. The desperation on your face makes Aleksander sigh with relief inside. You cared. That was for sure. So why do you hesitate for so long and postpone the inevitable?

"Then why do you insist on keeping us hidden?"

You don't answer. You know he'll think your uncertainty about his feelings is baseless and pointless. You think it's stupid. But you can't escape the overwhelming feeling that the moment your romance stops being a tightrope, his feelings for you will burn out like a candle. And you really wanted to keep him by your side.

Your silence, however, is not what he wants. Or something that could help you stop him. He nods silently and stands up from your makeshift bed of blankets.

"Where are you going?"

"Outside. I'll take guard duty for Ivan." He replies emotionlessly. You swallow nervously and sit up, following him with your eyes as he puts on his black coat as he is giving you a cold arm.

"Aleksander." You whisper with a pained tone in your voice. He stops for a moment and gives you a long, haunted look. He sighs and shakes his head at your silence and walks out of the tent, leaving you alone.

The lump in your throat grows and tears well up in your eyes. You close your eyelids and lift your head, taking a few calming breaths. You fucked this up. Not for the first time, but this time you really hoped you wouldn't get cold feet and that you'd somehow stifle that little voice in your head that had always questioned your worth.

Because you felt you weren't worthy of Aleksander. Yet for some twisted reason he thought you were perfect for him. Maybe this time you should take a chance and trust him? Trust that at the end of the day he'll decide you're enough and that you don't have to be a Sun Summoner to be his equal?

After a while, you stand up unsteadily and walk to the tent flap. You glance through it and freeze when you see Alina and Aleksander talking quietly by the fire. She says something to him and puts her hand on his shoulder, but instead of moving away from her touch, he seems to cling to her and answers her with one of those smiles that make your knees weak. You feel a painful stab in your heart. As if scalded, you jump away from the tent flap and lie back down in the pile of blankets.

You bury your nose in the material that has soaked in the scent of the Shadow Summoner and close your eyes as tears freely flow down your cheek and soak into the black fur. A hundred dark thoughts, doubts, and different scenarios in which Aleksander leaves you for Alina go through your head, and to be completely honest, you don't blame him. She was a real sun. How could you possibly compare to her? You were stupid and naive to think that he would stick to you when he could have her.

The only comfort you find is that at the end of your crying, when you had no more tears to shed and were only shaking uncontrollably, Alexander came back. He came back and practically silently laid down next to you. He wrapped his arms around you and pulled you close to his chest, burying his nose in your hair. He sighed quietly and ran his thumb over your waist, holding you so tightly as if you were the most important thing in his life, and he couldn't let you slip through his fingers.

You don't make a move, don't give any sign that you're awake. You spend the rest of the night half-awake as you try to memorize the way Aleksander holds you, the way he still wants to come back to your bed at night.

Because something tells you that this state of affairs won't last long.

"Just as I thought, you look adorable even after a week of horseback riding and searching for a group of Drüskelle." Alexei compliments you as you and Zoya return to camp after scouting. You let out an uncontrollable laugh at this, amused by the absurdity of his flirting, and join the group sitting around the campfire.

"It's a pity I can't say the same about you." You say spitefully and accept from Aleksander, who is sitting next to you, a stick with a fish that Fedyor and Alina had caught earlier. Aleksander takes another stick with a raw fish and starts roasting it again. Everyone else laughs at your remark, even Alexei.

"You'll see, one day I will melt your cold heart." You roll your eyes at this. Zoya, sitting next to you, hits your arm in amusement.

"Come on, Y/N. Tell us about this secret lover of yours. Maybe it will cool Alexei's ardor."

Fedyor perks up at Zoya's words and nods enthusiastically, while Aleksander, sitting next to you, tenses slightly. You see that his knuckles have been clenching around the stick since Alexei began his flirtation with you. You fear his further reaction to this conversation, which is heading in a rather dangerous direction.

"You have a lover?! Who beat me to it?" Everyone around you laughs at the exaggeratedly hurt tone of Inferni's voice and the way he dramatically aimed his fishing rod at you. You smile involuntarily and shake your head, trying your best to keep the blush from spreading to your cheeks.

"Thanks for your concern, or rather curiosity, but my lover and I would rather keep our privacy. Besides, I can't talk about him left and right without his consent."

"Maybe it wouldn't bother him at all?" Aleksander comments, not looking at you, instead focussing his attention on the fish in the fire. You feel an uncomfortable feeling in your chest when he won't even look at you. The bitter feeling of guilt resurfaces within you, and you wonder how the hell you're supposed to fix what you've broken.

"Exactly! I don't care what you want, I wanna meet this guy who is the best sex you've ever had!" Zoya comments, practically making you choke on your own saliva and freeze in embarrassment.

Everyone around the fire is laughing at this and asking you snide questions about your mystery lover's… prowess. You glance briefly at Alexander and almost punch him in the arm when a smug, dark smile appears on his face. And from the mischievous glint in his eyes, you know he'll only put the final nail in the coffin of your embarrassment.

"The best sex you've ever had, you say?" He asks, amused, raising an eyebrow at you. You bite your lower lip and slam your shoulder into his, almost causing him to lose his balance and fall over the log. He laughs at your feeble attempt at attacking him.

"Oh, piss off." You snap at him but he just reaches over and ruffles your hair with his hand. It's only the deafening silence around you that makes you realize you've done something… wrong.

Everyone stares at Aleksander in shock, as if waiting for him to yell at you for overstepping his bounds, but he doesn't. You see genuine shock and surprise on their faces. Before your general can say anything, you take over, trying to save the day.

"What? Haven't you ever seen two good friends banter?" You sneer at them and nod at their sticks. "Your food will burn if you sit there with your mouths open and stare at us much longer."

Somehow your words disenchant them. They go back to their usual joking, teasing demeanour, and the camp buzzes with their conversations again. You glance at Aleksander, and you can see from his face that he doesn't like the way you've handled this. You know this was the perfect opportunity to admit you're together, but after what you saw last night—the way he acted with Alina—you got too scared to tell them. If they all didn't know you were together, maybe his inevitable departure would hurt less?

You flinch as your secret lover sitting next to you suddenly takes the stick with the fish out of your hands.

"You'll burn it if you stay in your tangled thoughts any longer." He grumbles and takes the fish off the stick. You see he's completely abandoned his in favor of preparing your meal. You nod with a smile as he hands you a slice of bread and seasons the fish with the spices you brought with you.

Unconsciously to you, someone's eyes are watching the two of you closely.

Aleksander thrusts the food under your nose. You instinctively lean forward and bite into the offered sandwich, used to him feeding you, most often in the late hours of the night, when you both sit in the war room and spend time planning new tactics. You glance around quickly, but fortunately the others are too busy with themselves to notice. Or so you think.

"You're going to burn your own fish." You notice and take your food from him.

He's holding his stick back, and you decide to give him a bite of his before he gets his food. After all, he practically made you yours. You make sure no one notices and feed Alexander. He hums and brushes his lips against your fingertips before licking them teasingly. You sigh and punch him in the arm, to which he just grins wolfishly at you and winks.

You feel warm just from your playful exchange. And as the darkness grows deeper, you reach for Aleksander's hand and hold it tightly, shielding it with the hem of your coat. You smooth your thumb over the back of his hand, laughing at the stories Zoya tells. Aleksander seems much less tense, and a little satisfied, when you hold his hand tightly in yours.

And while you think no one has noticed, they have. Or at least one of them has.

At some point, Aleksander gives you his coat, insisting in a quiet conversation between you that you'll freeze and get sick if you don't take it and that he'll be fine because he's survived winters much worse than this one, and with much thinner clothing.

Your heart aches that he's had such an experience, but for the sake of peace, you take the black coat from him. You blush when he whispers that when he gets back, he'll make sure David makes you one that matches his, so everyone knows you're his.

And when he presses his lips to your forehead to check that your body temperature isn't too low for his liking, Fedyor awkwardly reveals that he's been watching you.

"Saints, Fedyor!" Alina squeaks in panic as the heartrender somehow loses his balance on the log and almost falls into the fire.

He hadn't leaned any closer to hear what you were whispering, and he hadn't nearly fallen into the fire in shock when he was the only one to notice their general's affectionate treatment of you. Not at all.

"Are you okay?" You ask him worriedly and kneel down next to him.

Fedyor swallows, trying hard not to show that he noticed the way Kirigan's gaze softens when he looks at you. He was such an idiot. How could he not have noticed that before?

"Yeah... yeah, I am fine. I should probably just go to sleep. Ivan?" Fedyor calls his beloved.

He helps him up and leads him to their tent. Before he can ask even one question about his well-being, Fedyor blurts out:

"Did you notice that Y/N and general are... very close?" Ivan at first seems not to react to his words. Fedyor only realises, through the very slight acceleration of his heartbeat, that perhaps his partner knows something more about... the unexpected connection between his best friend and the Black General. "Ivan... do you know what I think you know?"

"What do you think you know?" Ivan clears his throat awkwardly as they both enter their tent.

"Oh saints, you know right?! How long?! Was it that obvious?!"

Fedyor's mind flashes back to a million moments when your feelings for each other were painfully obvious. He remembers how Kirigan would let you playfully tease him, how he would always make sure you weren't overworking yourself and were eating the right amount of meals, and how he would look after your well-being. Hell, the general even delayed your trip to the fold because you were sick with a cold from your recent trip to Kertch! And he had behaved like a jilted, angry, resentful lover during those months! It was so painfully obvious that Kirigan was head over heels in love with you... but were you? Or was it just a passing fling? Fedyor had to know more.

"That's why we shouldn't get involved and let them decide for themselves… Fedyor, honey, where are you going?" Ivan asks confused as his other half runs out of the tent.

Fedyor throws a quick see you later over his shoulder and runs to your tent hoping to find you there so he can have a serious talk with you.

And fortunately he succeeds.

"You told Ivan, and you didn't tell me?! I am your best friend!" Fedyor shouts at the entrance to your tent. You stare at him, holding the report the falcon just delivered to you in your hands, as you are trying to understand what he means. You blush as you realise what he could be so angry about.

"I… since when did you…"

"Oh please. You've obviously been like this the whole time. I'm a fool for not making the connection. It's literally written all over his face that he loves you. What about you?" Fedyor sits on your blankets. Your palms are sweating and you put the reports on the ground, wondering how the hell you're going to get out of this situation now.

"I… it's complicated."

"Love is quite complicated. Maybe that's why you gave Alina a deadly look a few days ago when she was practicing her powers with the general? And you snapped at her, giving her a completely traumatic tantrum when she lost her sword?"

"I… it wasn't intentional and you know it." You mumble, blushing even more, but this time with embarrassment.

"It's a simple question Y/N. You either feel it or you don't. And from what I see, you probably also… reciprocate. Although it's clear that he fell much harder."

"You think?" You ask with a smirk, unable to help yourself at his comment. Fedyor nods and stands up. He walks over to the shadow and places his hands on your shoulders.

"Yes. And believe me, I don't blame him. If I didn't play for the same team, or didn't have similar tastes as you, it would be really hard for me not to fall in love with you."

"Yeah, I know. We'd be a great couple if you weren't gay." You laugh at him and pull him into a hug. "But don't tell Ivan or Kirigan that."

"Sure. We don't want to upset our grumps, do we?"

Your laughter is the first thing Aleksander hears as he approaches your tent. He opens the flap with one finger and sees you standing in Fedyor's arms, laughing. A cry of jealousy and a sudden need to take you in his arms and hide you from the other man pierce his mind for a moment, but he calms down, reminding himself that Fedyor... is no threat to him. At least not romantically.

"Can I interrupt?" He asks and goes inside. You step away from Fedyor and nod at him.

Fedyor nods at him and leaves, throwing you a mischievous wink over his shoulder. Alexander notices this and connects the dots rather quickly. He walks over to you and wraps his arms around your waist. He plants a kiss on your forehead, then rests his chin on your shoulder.

"So I guess he knows?"

His hot whisper against your ear makes you shiver. You burrow your face into his chest, nuzzling his neck as you wrap your arms around him in an equally tight embrace. Maybe Fedyor is right? Maybe when you know… you just know?

"Yeah... At this rate soon the entire Little Palace will know."

"Do you mind?" He asks uncertainly, expecting his words to hang in the air and for it to take you a while to respond with another excuse.

But you decide to bet on the truth. Show him all your cards and the same vulnerability he has for you. It was going to be everything or nothing and you knew you couldn't put it off for long. Not if you didn't want to lose him.

"Partly. I... I am afraid that once it will stop being a secret affair you will... loose your interest in me. I mean... look at me. I am not Alina." You laugh nervously and try to hide your face in his black kefta. Aleksander is not having that. He gently takes your middle and forces you to look into his dark, beautiful eyes.

"I don't want you to be Alina. I don't want you to be anything else but you, Y/N. I love you as you are. Heartrender, healer, sun summoner, inferni or whatever else, I don't care. I care about you. The way you make me feel. The way you hold me. The way you kiss me. I want you for what you really are. Not for the power you hold. Not for anything other than you."

You can barely hold back the tears in your eyes. Instead, you just nod and lean in to kiss him softly. You melt, as always, at the softness of his lips, the way he gently cups your cheeks in his hands and holds you like you're the most important thing in his life, like he can never afford to lose you. And you hope it stays that way forever.

"You damn manipulator how can I say no after that?" You gasp as the kiss ends and he rests his forehead against yours. He chuckles deeply and envelops you in the tight, warm, safe embrace of his arms.

"You can't." He mumbles against your temple and places a tender kiss there. "You are all mine. As I am yours, milaya."

And you have to say, his words have never felt more true, as he kisses you with a passion unlike any other men. You only hope that he secretly draws 'mine' on your skin for the rest of your life… not just in his shadows and the darkness of the night.

Money moomin!!!

This is the rare money moomin . Reblog and money will come your way !

Please reblog money cat and money will come your way!

we need more books that are written like YA novels but have characters in their 20s… like I can’t keep reading books about teenagers but I’m also not ready for the weird adult romance section of the book store

Ben Barnes Preferred Partner

I didn't know this was the guy who played Prince Caspian in Narnia. Whoever suggested this, you have taste.

I'm not taking reversals for preferred partner readings.

Let's start with physical attributes: Page of swords, the hierophant. He wants someone who is younger than him or that looks young. Page of Swords is someone who is approximately 22, so someone significantly younger than his 41 years or that could be mistaken as in their 20s. With the hierophant, it will be someone with a traditional appearance. They don't dress flashy and they don't look like someone that catches eyes everywhere they go. This person would need to be conservative in a sense, understated. So this would be like a Maude Apatow and not a Sydney Sweeney. Maude is the one everyone overlooks but she is still gorgeous.

Okay onto personality: Knight of cups, 7 of swords, Queen of cups, The Moon.

He wants someone that is passionate. He wants someone that might enjoy romantic movies. They might be romantic and like a bit of drama in their relationships. Someone that professes their love and shows him a lot of affection. Someone that treats him like he is the only man in the world. This person would need to overlook his negative traits and just see him as the greatest boyfriend ever.

He wants someone that is ambitious. This person needs to be someone who is cunning. They need to be able to win without anyone realizing they were even trying to. If you watch the show Succession, this is like a Gerri type of person rather than a Shiobhan. She is quiet about her goals and is making moves behind the scenes. He might also like to be with someone who has their own life. This person leaves the house and he doesn't necessarily know what they do throughout the day. It's a very sneaky energy. He might also like people who are in the acting industry.

Keeping with this trend, he wants someone mysterious. He wants to be constantly surprised by this person. That may be why he likes them sneaky in a way. This person needs to be private or he may want the relationship to stay private. This person would need to be full of secrets because he is really into that.

This person should not be aggressive or in any way confrontational. The Queen of Cups is the ultimate female archetype. This person needs to be gentle, like a Queen. She lets him lead. She comforts him and is compassionate to everyone. She might be soft spoken and feminine. She is sensitive and expresses her emotions freely. Might be motherly and nurturing. Needs to make him feel like she is home or supply a clean and safe space for him. This is the card for Cancer, so these attributes will apply.

Thank you for reading! I definitely would not be considered for this guy as I am drop dead gorgeous and very loud. If you have any questions or suggestions let me know.
