Set in Ilya…

You’d been screwed over by an ex, and were pissed. He’d given the bare minimum and had thought that would be enough. For a while it was. You were so romance deprived you breezily smiled and walked past the red signs. Often giving them a kiss on the cheek.

But now you were sick of it. You wanted someone who would worship the ground you walk on. Who would treat you like the princess, or in your cause, duchess you were.

You were lazing on your bed, mentally listing all possible men who could give you at least half of your requirements. Every single box we ticked by one man.

You shook your head. No. Don’t be silly. He’s been your friend since you were born. He'd never see you like that.

Would he?

This led to you visiting his younger half brother, Kai. “Do you think he’d ever fall for me?” I tried and failed to bring up causally, as I wandered around the training ring Kai was ruthlessly training in.

“Do I what?” Kai panted and stopped, turning to you. “Fall for you?” You nodded. “Try and tell me what happens.”

And so you and Kitt did fall in love. Naturally, perfectly. And Plauges, he was enamoured by you. In love. Would kiss the ground you walked on. Would do anything you wished.

So after a long night at an event he whisked you away to his room that you slept in now, and sat you down on the bed. “I’ll draw a bath my darling.” He murmured kissing your hair. He returned momentarily and got to his knees before you, and began undoing your heels and taking the straps off for you. When he was done he pressed a kiss to your calf.
