When you first met Simon, you couldn’t deny he looked terrifying. The skull balaclavas combined with his cold and piercing stare was enough to make a grown man shake in his steel-toed boots, but after the two of you grew closer you made a shocking discovery… he was actually a big sweetheart.

His past from back when he was still in the military had hardened him both physically and mentally, creating a beast of a man that everyone feared, and he liked it that way. Or at least, he liked it until he met you. It had taken some time and work, but you’d managed to burrow your way into his heart despite his best efforts to push you away… and now he was in too deep. Not even the harshest conditions or most painful tortures had managed to get underneath Simon’s skin, but you? You had single-handedly done the impossible; you had brought this man to his knees.

And he was absolutely smitten.
