Empress Keith!!
Okay, so I caved and decided to write my own damn empress!Keith, because I just can't wait any longer. That idea has been banging around in my head for ages.
Keith has never been to earth in this au. He grew up around other half breeds, and eventually met the paladins some way, and became the pilot of the red lion. Yada yada, you know what happens.
But he meets Lotor and prince boy is Smitten®. Founds out Keith is another half Galra, falls in love with him, Keith falls in love back, and they get married happy ever after.
NOW, he is the emperors consort.
....
Keith wasn't used to luxury.
Growing up in a galran orphanage, he had to fight for even the basic necessities, like food. He was lucky if he went to sleep at night with a full belly. A comfortable bed was definitely off the table.
But, then again, Keith was an adult now. An adult who just so happened to be the galran emperors queen consort.
Keith grinned to himself turning his face into the velvety bed sheets beneath him.
Like previously stated, Keith wasn't used to luxury.
Keyword; wasn't.
Now, that's all he ever experienced. His husband provided him with anything he could ever possibly want. All in exchange for loving the man the same way he did Keith.
And he did love him. It almost took his breath away how much he loved this man, his emperor. His heart still sped up every time he walked into the room, confident stride in tow.
He was so busy collapsing himself into the wondrously comfortable bed, that he didn't hear footsteps making their way over to him.
He had barely any time to react as he was lifted suddenly, being carried bridal style.
"What the- God damnit, Lotor, you scared me."
The former prince smirked down at Keith. "Can I not hold my lover after a long, tiresome day of ruling the galaxy?"
Keith hit Lotors arm, dropping out of the mans grip. "Of course you can. Just don't give me a heart attack in the process."
The man snickered contently. He stared unabashedly in awe at his empress.
The boy in question was draped in purple silk with gold trim. His gown reached the floor, and then some. Minuscule gems were scattered across the skirt, catching the light and causing Keith to shine beautifully.
"Don't you look lovely today..." Lotor stated hungrily. His eyes trailed up and down the boys figure.
"Well, I have to." Keith rolled his eyes. "We're meeting with the chancellor of planet Vallam today. Don't you remember?"
Lotor groaned and shut his eyes. "Don't remind me. Those people are an unseen depth of boring."
Keith let a devilish grin fall on his lips, tilting his head coyly. "Well, that's what you have me for, right? Sit on your lap and look pretty, help you get through unbearable meetings." His arms locked around Lotors neck, leaning in closer to him.
The emperor smiled genuinely and placed a delicate hand on Keith's face. "Oh, you are much more than that my love. You are the leader of this universe just as much as I am."
He trailed kisses up the boys neck, barely grazing his skin. Keith shuddered, tilting his neck for better access.
"But," Lotor reached Keith's lips, hardly an inch between them and his own. "You do look undeniably pretty lounging in my lap."
