Digital illustration of Jayce on his knees slowly sliding off his shorts and showing his cute pink thong. He already has his shirt off and his nipple is showing off. However, he still has his socks and sneakers on since it is still part of his lingerie.

Viktor goes to comfort her but is stopped by the sound of a strong voice and loud uneven footsteps.
"Am I interrupting?"

Goes on about how she knew he'd come back, how she knew he wasn't dead despite what Jayce wanted to tell himself
How she always believed she would see him again. How she's oh so happy to see him again that she can't hold back her tears any longer

Excitedly demands to get a good look at him as her eyes wander across his face
How of course even after all this time he hasn't changed a bit
Drags him inside the small remaining sound building and makes him a hot drink and filling plate of food

Eyes warm and crinkling in the corners, grey streak framing her face in a way that feels familiar and safe
Talks to him as though she's known him all his life and is seeing him again for the first time in years
Maybe she is with how she holds him close and brushes the now long hair off his face

himself drawn to look around. To follow a path towards a ruined house as though entranced under a magic spell
And when he takes a chance to catch his breath in front of the burnt down structure he's taken surprise by a kind woman who greets him with such warmth and affection

That he's meant for one person
That he's meant for Jayce
He leaves before dawn breaks. He's not sure where but he knows he'll know when he reaches his destination
When he sees whoever this Jayce is he'll know he'll be home
The locale around Talis Hall feels nostalgic and Viktor can't help but find

so prettily. Can't ignore his his fingers never feel right against himself anymore and leave him wanting more
Hector notices and one night insists his can give Viktor what he wants, what he needs. That Viktor was given to him as a gift and how they're meant to be
Viktor knows it's not true

Everything feels off but he can get used to that. He's gone through worse and survived
And everyone seems so proud of the progress he's making that he thinks he'll be okay in the end
But at night he can't help but miss warm hands and a bright smile and plush lips against his skin that say his name

even though he has no understanding how he could be betrayed
The eldest brother seems to take a strong liking to him though. Thinks Viktor is the perfect person to take at the school they'd been wanting to set up
So he does
Eases into a new sense of normality

The family that look after him are kind and wonderful but they don't fill the hole where he thinks his heart should be
Their kindness don't erase the thought that he should be somewhere else
With someone else
None of it stops the betrayal that sits heavy in his marrow and haunts his waking thoughts

Doesn't remember why he was dressed as though he were to wed someone
All he remembers was that his name was Viktor, he was an unwanted orphan who grew up to be a governor and would be nothing more
As the weeks go by he strength returns to him though his health has definitely taken a permanent knock

And lying to Viktor was a part of keeping them safe
The next thing Viktor knows is he's waking up in a stiff scratchy bed with thin sheets as someone dabs sweat of his skin and tries to soothe him
He doesn't remember how he got there
He doesn't remember how he got to the moors he was found on

But he couldn't find hate in himself towards her
She was still family to him.
So he had a new wing built on the family house. Hired more staff so she was well taken care of
Took the child as his own and raised her even though they never looked alike
Did everything he could to keep them both safe

To avoid scandal he was made to marry her
Only that'd never slept together
She was pregnant but not with his child. It'd been a hard pregnancy, and it wasn't just her physical health that had started failing
Jayce should have hated her. After all she had ruined his life

Everyone had wanted her. But she only had eyes for Jayce
Jayce had only ever seen her as family though. Never had any intentions of courting and marrying her
She couldn't stand that
So she lied
Said that her and Jayce had had a night of passion and that now she carried his child

But Jayce seems to know them by the way his hands tense around Viktor's and his eyes narrow towards the stranger
And how he goes to punch him when he says they can't marry
Dmitri is his name
He's known Jayce his whole life
He features look similar to Ama's
He had a sister
Older
Beautiful woman

He tries to believe her
Jayce looks ever so handsome in his suit and his eyes seem to sparkle with magic as Viktor meets him at the top of the aisle
But before anything else can proceed the church doors are swung open and there stands someone Viktor had never met before

married Jayce will finally tell him
Finally trust him and spill all
It's raining on their wedding day
A bad omen the staff think
Viktor tries not to pay too much mind to it but he can't help the unsettled feeling that clings and gnaws at his bones. Ama says it's probably wedding nerves

Whenever Jayce gets the chance he's pulling Viktor close, smothering his face in kisses. Already calling him Mr Viktor Talis. Enjoying the embarrassed blush that paints Viktor's skin pink afar too much
The issue from before still sits at the back of Viktor's mind but he thinks maybe after they're

language with Viktor and works out what flowers they should get for the wedding. And confesses she'd hoped they'd get together
That she knows Viktor makes her dad happy and that's all she wants for him
Then begs him to get Jayce to raise the budget for her dress for the big day

all to see
They're engaged to be married once the week is over and Ama is ecstatic by the development
The staff can't help but be nervous
Everything seems to be going swimmingly. It's the happiest anyone has seen either Jayce or Viktor. Or Ama for that matter, who excitedly goes through flower

lips brushing against heated skin
And then he's kissing up and down the long column of Viktor's neck. Goes to bite and mark the pale sin before his yanked back by his hair
And now it's Viktor who's eyes are full of fire and darkness and a possessiveness that Jayce could only hopes brands him for

Viktor tries to fight back, stammers out that he will not be the one to ruin Jayce and he will not stand to have his feelings played with like that just because Jayce can
Fights down the tremor that runs down his spine as Jayce whispers in his ear that he wants Viktor to ruin him, craves it even,

Says how he's not good with words but he's good with action and he needs to show Viktor just how much he feels for the other
Just how much Viktor takes up his waking and sleeping thoughts, just how much he loves him, just how much he wants him

They're the scent of wine on his breath and for a brief moment Viktor wonders if the wine taste better off Jayce's tongue
Gets a hold of himself and asks Jayce what he wants. It takes Jayce a moment before he steps forward, crowds Viktor back towards him bed

It's heated and savage and both storm away with hurt hearts and wounded pride
It takes another two days before Jayce bangs on Viktor's bedroom door as he's getting ready for bed
His eyes are dark and half lidded as he stands and stares down Viktor as though he's prey

Which causes Jayce to argue back that he as always seen Viktor as an equal, that he's never once thought lowly of the man
And surely Viktor knows that?
To say otherwise would be ridiculous. How could Viktor think such a thing of him?
The two argue

And perhaps that's part of the problem
He wants Jayce to trust him as an equal, to talk to him as an equal. But wanting that is clearly causing conflict and he has to remember he's just a governor with nothing to his name and remember his place and station

It works for 3 days before Jayce coming barging into the library. Demands to know why Viktor has suddenly gone so cold on him. What has he done to hurt Viktor so?
Viktor maintains that there is nothing, that Jayce could do nothing to make him feel any form of coldness towards him
