Malleus hummed softly as you sat between his legs, stroking his horns, while he sat on his big bed. His eyes were tightly closed, his body relaxed. It was a thick night outside, and you were the only one awake in Night Raven College. His tail found its place of honor, carefully hugging your waist, so as not to overdo it with its power.
Malleus Draconia is a third-year student and the head of the Diasomnia dorm. He is descended from fairies, and his magical power is one of the strongest in the world. The guy holds a place of honor in Night Raven College, but his powerful aura makes other students keep their distance from him. Despite all this, he is also your boyfriend.
You were in the same dorm, which led to the beginning of your friendship with him. Of course, at first, Silver and Sebek didn't accept you, but when Malleus confessed his feelings for you, they started to treat you normally, you even seemed to get along. But of course, the one who was most happy was his guardianman, Lilia, who was the first to tell everyone that you were dating.
The rest of the students were shocked when they heard this news. Because of his strength, or maybe his cold aura, as everyone thought, they couldn't even imagine that he would find a place in his heart that could carry love. He was the heir to the kingdom of Thorn Valley, so of course, he carried an important burden. But it didn't seem so heavy when his partner was nearby, ready to support him in everything.
"They didn't send me an invitation again, you know?" Malleus muttered, opening his eyes, causing you to tear yourself away from his horns to look at him: you weren't surprised, he was never at events, because everyone was afraid of him.
You consoled him softly, saying that you would stay with him and not go anywhere, so that he would not feel lonely. To which the guy only shook his head, hugging you tighter with his tail, not letting go.
"You don't have to give up fun for me, little dragon," Malleus began, raising his other hand to run through your hair, caressing the soft curls. "I can distract myself with studying while you are gone."
But you were not happy with this arrangement and firmly stood your ground, which made the guy smile weakly, leaning his head on your shoulder, hoping that you would start stroking his horns again. his eyes closed again, and he almost purred from your soft hands that ran over his horns again. it seemed that soon he would have to buy special care for his horns and entrust it to you.
You never understood why the students avoided him so much. yes, he could look scary. yes, he was the heir to the valley of thorns. yes, he was a dragon. but not inviting him to social events that concerned all the participants of the college? for you it was low, even too low. he was overly grateful that you weren't afraid of him,
He remembered perfectly well the day he confessed his love to you.
Yes, for others, malleus could be a threatening figure who would look askance at you if you came close to him. yes, he could seem stern, but he was like that only for those who don't know him and his character well. He spoke very little, only talking to people close to him.
You knew your Malleus as a calm, loving guy who would do anything for you, just to see your soft smile, which he loved so much. You helped him with his terrible introverted abilities, he helped you with your studies when you didn’t understand something. There was harmony in your relationship, you were the most important person in his life. You solved your problems together, he talked about his jealousy, tried not to withdraw into himself.
Fleeting kisses behind the wall during breaks between classes, holding hands during lessons. He even let you draw pictures in his notebook when you were too bored to listen to the professor. He loved to unexpectedly appear behind you and hug you with his tail when you were talking to someone.
“Will you stay tonight?” Malleus muttered, opening his eyes to look at your face, which was illuminated by the moonlight. “I can’t sleep peacefully without you.”
