Alberich joined him ten minutes later with a large plate of hash downs and scrubbed eggs, two forks, and two glasses of juice all on a tray, setting it on the table in front of he couch and staring at Enlil a moment and drinking in the image of him so relaxed with his– their cat. It made him miss the other in a way he almost didn’t want to consider, even more so in his masculine form. He’d ages, but Enlil had not, no doubt looking the same, and he missed it. Wondered how good his memory was, the only thing he had aside from Lilu and a tattoo as proof of his time in captivity. “I- I know you don’t typically eat this type of food, but if you’re hungry, you’re welcome to join me. Otherwise, the floor is yours,” he offered, reaching for a glass.

Enlil sat up, shifting Lilu to sit on his lap. He was amazing hoe Rich had managed to fix everything up like this but he wasn’t going to complain. Enlil shifted closer to the fae. “Since you went through the trouble of fixing my mistake I guess I could eat something..” he said and snagged a hash down. 

Then he started on his tale of his travels, recounting how he had shacked up with a witch for a bit only to end up cursed like this. It wasn’t so bad with his job and everything; but it was frustrating at most times. “Then…after the witch…but before my current job up here, I ended up down in Florida of all places and bumped into him on a total accident.”

[alberichfoster]

"Him?" He pushed the plate closer on the table to Enlil, surprised to see him eating at all. "This just sounds like the start of a story to be honest... any idea when you'll change back to a male?"

“Dane?” Replied instantly, eyebrows raising. He’d ask about the hybrid’s mother later. “You… okay? I mean– how’d that go?” He barely knew anything about the man– a tense subject back at the castle even, but if Enlil was willing to chat now? “Here,” he insisted all but forcing Lilu into Enlil’s arms. “Let me salvage breakfast– you go sit,” he instructed, pointing to the living room the next room over. “I’ll be over in a minute, but no leaving. Understood?”

Enlil shrugged, “Like I said it was a fucking trip.” He took the cat from the fae, deciding to explain more once Rich was done with the food. “Alright, alright, I’ll go sit. Only cause you asked so nicely.” He moved to the couch and sat down, laying down on the couch with his cat, stroking her coat gently.

The fae sighed, smiling softly. His heart melted and it was almost embarrassing how easy it felt to forgive Enlil. “You were, huh?” He replied with a gentle laugh, cuddling Lilu to his chest. “Lilu’s certainly given me grief at times– she’s got a strong personality and kept me on my toes over the years. Thank you though– it’s been nice having at least one constant.” He kissed Lilu’s head, taking a step closer to Enlil. “I bartend now at a dive bar a few blocks away… not exactly a dream job, but it doesn’t attract attention and pays the bills,” he added with a shrug. “What about you? Since.. then? Is this– the female thing– permanent?”

Enlil didn’t honestly know how to interpret Rich’s laugh, but it was good to hear it again. He was kind of surprised by how much he missed it. His eyes drop down toward his cat and smiled a little then. “She’s certainly a princess…” he looked back at the fae, “but I should be thanking you…for taking such good care of her.” He nodded slowly; sounded simple enough. An easy way to stay under the radar.

“Me?” He sighed. “Well, this,” he motioned to himself, “Isn’t permanent. I won’t let it be…I miss my dick. But…other than that? I traveled around some, hadn’t done that in a while. Went home…mom was pissed when she saw my fangs were gone. They’re growing back in though, slowly, but they’re there. Ended up stumbling upon Dane which was a fucking trip and a half.”

[alberichfoster]

“I’ve been through a lot, haven’t I?” He parroted back humorlessly, letting go of Enlil and reaching down to scoop up Lilu into his arms. “I can’t risk going back to my old life, and what friends I had are all either dead or still enslaved… It’s a lot. But I know if you walk out that door now, we’re both going to regret it. I still don’t know if you coming back here was the smartest thing… And I’m pissed you didn’t just tell me the moment I bumped into you… But please, En? You’re the first familiar face– ignoring the obvious gender swap– I’ve seen in quite some time, and it would at least be nice to catch up.”

Enlil sighed, chewing on his bottom lip. He knew Rich had point, if he had left now he’d regret it. Even more so than he had the first time he had left. “I’m sorry,” he said, “I’m so sorry. I’ve been sorry…for everything. Well, no, not everything…but most things. I was a shitting boyfriend.” Enlil shook his head; he was rambling. “I mean…how are you, besides–” he waved a hand “–everything. What do you do? How’d you manage it? Did Lilu give you any trouble?”

[alberichfoster]

The fae sighed, smiling softly. His heart melted and it was almost embarrassing how easy it felt to forgive Enlil. "You were, huh?" He replied with a gentle laugh, cuddling Lilu to his chest.

Enlil paused when Rich grabbed his wrist, the fae’s soft plea hitting him hard.  He knew that he could simply over-power Rich, pull himself free and get out of here. It was probably for the best. He shouldn’t have went home with him the other night. Even if he missed him.

He turned and looked at Rich, a from etched on his face. “I…” he sighed, his free hand pulling at the bottom of the shirt he wore. “I mean…do you really think that’s best? I want to stay, I really do. But I don’t want to cause you problems…you’ve been through enough…”

“I’ve been through a lot, haven’t I?” He parroted back humorlessly, letting go of Enlil and reaching down to scoop up Lilu into his arms. “I can’t risk going back to my old life, and what friends I had are all either dead or still enslaved...

He shrugged. “Call whatever you want. I don’t really mind.” Enlil swallowed, inwardly cursing himself and his big mouth. He should have just left after he had woken up. Stupid, stupid, stupid. “No…I just– I was surprised to bump into you. Shocked. And then…well, I wanted to see if she was still alive.” He motioned toward the kitchen entrance, since Lilu had since left. “And I missed you…a lot. And I didn’t think you’d want to see me so… I didn’t say anything.” He sighed, combing his fingers through his hair. “I should just leave. I’m sorry.” He sat his spatula down. “Let me just go get my stuff.”

The fae's attention was split, reaching for Enlil, almost immediately seeing smoke rise from the stove a second later. Burnt eggs. "Fuck." Gross. He immediately flipped the burners off and the fan on, hoping the smoke would settle since he caught it at the start. "Li- En. Wait!" He demanded a rushed moment later, turning his attention back to the other and grabbing his wrist. It was irrational. He was pissed. Confused. Hurt... but also lonely. He was never going to see Avery again, and he didn't dare go back to his family and friends in New York, knowing talk of someone suddenly returning from the beyond was sure to bring attention... Especially a previously enslaved fae.

But Enlil.... Out of everyone Alberich had missed in his life-- longed to see again... Enlil was the one that had always remained a safe option. Simply one the hybrid never believed would happen, so the thought never dwelled. He'd loved Enlil though, and a part of him knew he always would-- so the thought often returned. But now the other hybrid was with him, and it wasn't just a wishful dream. Things didn't seem nearly as clear as he'd hoped, and his heart was a mess of emotion, but he knew one thing. He wasn't ready for goodbye again-- at least not so soon.

"Don't go-- not yet. Please," he requested, voice softening and eyes glazed over with unshed tears.

As he felt the fae’s arms shake, Enlil placed a hand on top of his. He didn’t know if this would help in this situation, but he had learned a thing or two while being an escort. Like how to comfort someone. At least better than he used to.

But when Rich pulled back he immediately felt at a kind of loss. He turned, forgetting about the breakfast he had been cooking, and took a step toward Rich, before thinking better for it. Enlil swallowed, balling his fist in the fae’s shirt that he wore. “What? No,” he shook his head. “No, no. I didn’t find you, I just…bumped into you when I was running late for a different date… and I’m not trying to take you anywhere…especially not back there. I mean…why would I?” He sighed and looked away from him. “Sorry…”

Warning alarms were going off left and right in the fae’s head, but he wanted to trust Enlil. He’d been able to trust the hybrid while in the castle so many years ago, even if things between them hadn’t worked out. “En...” Fuck... It was him. “E-should I even be calling you that? Lily?” He frowned, eyebrows knitting together as he crossed his arms. “Say I believe you. Why? Why come home with me-- fuck me? Is this a game to you? ...Why here of all places? If-- If you did this because you wanted Lilu that bad, just take her,” he replied back coldly, although he didn’t mean it. At this point he considered the small creature his cat. He had been who the feline had spent the majority of her life with, after all, and knew he’d miss her. Still-- Enlil’s presence had him on edge.

maceyloverboy:

Enlil swallowed and froze when he felt Rich tense around him. Him and his stupid mouth. He took a deep breath and tilted his head back a bit, looking up but not being able to see the fae’s face. “Well, I mean…” there was a pause then; maybe he should just tell him? He didn’t know hoe Rich would react to him. He hummed. “I’m an incubus…well, succubus right now I guess.” He took a deep breath. “I’m a hybrid technically. Vamp and demon. I can smell it. But that’s not— I mean, we’ve met before.”

Alberich could feel the puzzle pieces slowly come together-- the subtle things Lily did and her random interest in his damn cat... The name...  Lily.. Lily... Fuck. That had been the name he’d used when they’d all been cursed that one week. It was why Alberich found himself comfortable to an unusual degree despite just meeting the woman... Because she wasn’t really what she seemed. And he’d met her-- him before. Enlil. 

It took him a minute to realize his arms were shaking slightly, in shock from the being he technically was still embracing from behind. Enlil leaving the castle had been hard- harder on the fae than he wanted to admit. So many things about their relationship had been new to him-- the first time he’d let himself care so much about someone... But simultaneously, it had been fraught with difficulty and in the end had become unhealthy-- and left Rich unhappy. He’d thought he made the right move asking for space from Enlil-- to break up. And in many ways he still firmly stood by his decision. It was unhealthy. Ignoring the fact he was a immature, selfish, hybrid in Rich’s eyes.. He also was a vampire-- a ‘Master’ where Alberich had been imprisoned, and thus never truly an equal relationship. Simultaneously though, Enlil departing the castle had hurt more than he wanted to admit. It had been what he always feared when they were together, and losing one of the only people he’d trusted while enslaved had hurt more than he’d realized. He’d become more emotionally distant than he wanted to admit from most, only finding comfort in Avery.. Who was also gone, ultimately wanting different things than Rich. What scared him worse was not having heard from the other fae in almost a year-- fearing the worst.

Wait-- was Enlil going to force him to go back!? He glanced down, feeling a complex mix of emotions for the man before him. Happy to see him again-- Relieved he was alive... Longing for a loved one he thought he’d never see again... But terrified not knowing his actual intentions. Why he was here-- why a.. woman... Why he’d LIED to Alberich- slept with him!... Silent tears ran down the fae’s cheeks, confused and terrified, overwhelmed and overall not sure what he wanted to do. “What... Why?” He paused a moment, arms releasing Enlil as he backed away, adding, “Why are you here? How did you find me?” in a worried, nervous tone that grew more confident as he spoke. “I’m not going back-- and if that’s why, like hell you’re taking me alive.”

alberichfoster:

Alberich tensed a moment, surprised by the kiss, but quickly relaxing as his arms slid around Lily’s frame from behind. “This looks awfully familiar,” he teased tugging at the shirt. “Nice for me though?” He glanced down at the food and grinned, half tempted to offer his own skill as a professional cook, but opting out of it considering how sweet the unexpected gesture was. “Smells good… Perhaps I should start inviting beautiful women with affinity for cats over more often.. Especially if it means waking up to this more often” He teased, head over one shoulder as he kissed the side of Lily’s head. 

A slightly dopey grin pushed its way onto her face as Rich slipped his arms around. He shrugged. “I plead the fifth.” Enlil looked back down at the food he was making, almost surprised that Rich didn’t offer any advice. “Really? Thanks, I was told faes tend to have a sweet tooth.” He shook his head. “Nah, I’m one of a kind babe.”

[alberichfoster]

Alberich tensed almost immediately, arms locking. She knew?! Had his shirt ridden up? He kept his living space akin to any human-- that had to be it. Immediately he felt defensive and worried, nervous about his past coming back to haunt him. "How?" He asked, voice questioning and almost cold from the sudden shock. "How do you know I'm fae?" He asked, figuring there was no point in denying it. The casual confidence in which Lily had said it made it seem almost pointless to try denying. Was she as well? No-- he hadn't seen wings on her back. A telepath perhaps?

He smiled when Rich entered the kitchen, turning and giving a little hop to press a kiss on the fae’s cheek. He was really gonna have to do something about being so damn short. “Yes!” He paused, looked back at the food. “Well…I mean…kinda. I’ve been learning and I wanted to do something…nice for you.”

Alberich tensed a moment, surprised by the kiss, but quickly relaxing as his arms slid around Lily’s frame from behind. “This looks awfully familiar,” he teased tugging at the shirt. “Nice for me though?” He glanced down at the food and grinned, half tempted to offer his own skill as a professional cook, but opting out of it considering how sweet the unexpected gesture was. “Smells good...

maceyloverboy:

Enlil had woken up early. Like, really early. He really didn’t sleep all that much— demon and all that jazz. So he had gotten up, stretching and yawning, pressing a kiss to the still sleeping Rich’s temple, and stole one of his shirts— he really didn’t feel like finding his dress. He nosed his way around the apartment, before making his way to the kitchen. With Lilu at his feet Enlil was feeling a little bit domestic. Plus for the previous night he thought Rich deserved breakfast in bed.

So he went about cooking (trying to cook) breakfast, humming to himself and rocking on his feet. His head turned slightly when he heard the fae. “I’m in the kitchen~!”

The fae ran a hand through his hair again, bleary-eyed as he glanced around his room and noted the open dresser drawer. Odd. He slipped out of bed and reached for a pair of underwear on the ground, not caring since he hadn’t showered yet as he walked into the main room and towards the kitchen, in search of the voice-- as the slightly alarming smell that now was definitely burnt to some degree-- or about to be. “Hey... you cook?” he asked with a yawn, eyeing Lily’s actions-- and apparel-- curiously as he approached.

Morning After

Alberich’s body rolled over, one arm cuddled around a pillow and he laid on his stomach, the other sprawled out beside him. It took him a moment, slowly regaining consciousness as his palm grasped at.. nothing?  His eyelashes fluttered, becoming more and more awake- alert, anxious about a stranger potentially anywhere in his apartment. Oh god. What if- his hand moved to his body-- he still had his shirt on, but she could still know. Where had Lily gone. “Li-Lily?” He called, voice escalating, but remaining light and curious. He sat up, running a hand through his disheveled hair? “You still around?” He added, smelling what he hoped was breakfast cooking in the other room. A good sign.. Right?.. Right?

Enlil practically glowed under Rich’s touch, pressing himself close against the fae, his own fingers slipping under Rich’s shirt. His fingers traced along the fae’s back, traveling up his back, around to where his wings should be. He hadn’t seen them in years really, and briefly wondered what they looked like before pushing the thought from his mind; not wanting Rich to catch on to who he was. “My expectations are high and I expect to be lavished.”

Alberich hesitated, the fingers along his back and his always-lingering survival-based paranoia causing him to feel slightly uncomfortable for just a moment. Surely she didn’t know, did she? His gaze locked with Lily’s, not letting his expression show his sudden concern as he leaned down, mumbling “of course,” as he captured her lips in a kiss, one hand sweeping across her side, palm cupping her one of her breasts tenderly. His eyes instead filled with amusement as he pulled back, smiling. “Now how would you like me, princess?”

[maceyloverboy-deactivated201711]

alberichfoster:

“And what if I’m not?” He grinned, one hand sliding up Lily’s thigh, leaning down to capture her lips in a kiss. His fingers inched the fabric up past her hips and to her waist before he pulled her up into a seated position, pulling her into his lap again. He then moved, reaching behind her to undo the zipper and slip the dress off, eyes drinking in her form in delight as his fingers explored her soft skin and curves. “Beautiful.”

He licked his lips and would have blushed at Rich’s bit of teasing if that kind of thing was possible for him. His hands slid back up along Rich’s neck, only shifting a bit to help get the dress up around his waist. He slipped back into Rich’s lap helping him take his dress off. It left him practically naked since this was the kind of dress that didn’t look good with a bra under it. Enlil smiled at Rich’s reaction, letting him drink his form in, his own fingers trailing along the fae’s jawline before speaking. “You’re not just gonna stare are you?”

[alberichfoster]

One palm slide to Lily's waist, circling around and pulling her naked form close as the other cupped her cheek a moment before sliding back and combing through her hair. "Not just stare," he teased, pulling her into a lust-filled kiss. "Worship every inch of your skin all night long."

[maceyloverboy-deactivated201711]

alberichfoster:

What little control the fae had snapped with an audible laugh, letting Lily slowly strip him of more of his clothing. “Then who am I to deny such a lovely lady as yourself,” he replied with a grin, pulling her into another heated kiss before lifting her by the hips, balancing her weight against him as he stood with her legs wrapped around his waist. He slowly turned the corner of his living room, kicking open the door to his bedroom and made his way tot he bed, leaning down over the end so Lily’s body could fall safely onto the bedding. “One bed for one classy lady,” he teased, hands moving to her dress. “And now for this.”

Enlil almost pouted when Rich laughed at him. He was supposed to be sexy not amusing. He would have worried about being out of practice but his job told him otherwise. But the kiss quelled whatever complaints that had bubbled up. Enlil kept himself pressed close to the fae as he was lifted and carried to the bedroom, his mind drifting back to the first time he had been with Rich like this.

He let go, falling to the bed with a soft little bounce, shifting back onto the bed a bit. “Zipper’s in the back,” he told him, “Y’know, if you’re a top down kinda guy.”

[alberichfoster]

"And what if I'm not?" He grinned, one hand sliding up Lily's thigh, leaning down to capture her lips in a kiss. His fingers inched the fabric up past her hips and to her waist before he pulled her up into a seated position, pulling her into his lap again. He then moved, reaching behind her to undo the zipper and slip the dress off, eyes drinking in her form in delight as his fingers explored her soft skin and curves. "Beautiful."

Enlil pressed in close, practically purring when Rich threaded his fingers through his hair. If he weren’t so focused on the fae’s lips he might have let out a small chuckle. He didn’t answer right away, but aftet a momemt he pulled back, his hands on Rich’s shoulders, pushing the fae back into the couch. He licked his lips, his eyes half lidded and pupils blown. He swallowed, remembering to keep his powers under check— this curse made stuff like a bit difficult, but he managed.

“What do I want,” he mused his head tilting off to the right slightly. “I want you to take me to bed,” he said, “cause I’m a classy lady.” He dropped his hands from Rich’s shoulders, shrugging off his small half jacket in the process. “Then I want you to help me out of this dress. That okay?”

What little control the fae had snapped with an audible laugh, letting Lily slowly strip him of more of his clothing. “Then who am I to deny such a lovely lady as yourself,” he replied with a grin, pulling her into another heated kiss before lifting her by the hips, balancing her weight against him as he stood with her legs wrapped around his waist.
