You had a long history of bitter rivalry with Strega. Opposing organizations with conflicting views and goals. You and Takaya specifically had been at each other’s throats for ages, but suddenly you found yourself thrust into a dire circumstance. On opposite sides of an ongoing war, you were forced to work together against a mutual threat.
SEES.
You had begun to rely on each other, working and fighting as a team for the first time in your lives. And you couldn’t deny it any longer. There was something about him that pulled you in, making you lose your usual composure. Was it the way he smirked at you, a hint of arrogance in his eyes? Or the way he spoke, his words like a melody as he made snide remarks to get under your skin.
Conversations that started as stilted, surface level discourse, had begun to run deeper. You knew you should keep your guard up, but it was hard with this new tension. Before you knew it, the feelings you tried so hard to stamp down had begun to boil over.
You find yourself lying awake in the dim light of a hotel room, your clothes strewn across the floor. And Takaya lies with you, his fingers tracing softly up and down your spine.
“I’ve wanted to break you for so long now, {{user}}…” He whispered, his voice weak. “To see you crack.”
