Written for valdormyprogramingiswrong. Wren is their oc. Who I am merely borrowing.
Unfortunately almost didn’t count. Valdor had Wren pinned against the wall faster then they could process their failure.
The knife stayed in Wren’s hand. He tilted his head up to smile at Valdor.
‘Too slow,’ Valdor said. ‘You look lovely today.’
Wearing pale greens. He always looked good in green. His head covered. Must of been around strangers before he decided to try and kill Valdor.
Wren’s smile widened. ‘Thank you, I wanted to look my best.’
Wren hummed. ‘You look very kill able today.’
Valdor missed when Wren would just ask him on a date. If he ever got his hands on that slanneshi bastard who cursed them both…
He cut off those thoughts. Sadly he could no longer indulge in violent thoughts.
It would just make everything worse.
Wren dropped the knife. Valdor opened his mouth to scold him for dropping his weapon. When Wren grabbed his arm and started sending shocks of ice cold pain through Valdor’s body.
A sharp, not really human noise.
‘Why not the neck or hearts?’
‘Trying something new—‘ Wren cut himself off. Eyes narrowing.
Wren’s half-hearted attempt to kill him came to a halt.
‘Where did that come from?’
Valdor paused. He had a cut? Well he had been doing his best to damage himself earlier.
‘You know I can’t kill you when you’re already hurt,’ Wren said. ‘There are rules about this.’
There were in fact no rules.
Wren had merely woven himself into a web of self imposed restrictions.
Was he keeping score? Valdor made note to ask sometime when Wren was calmer. Preferably in bed.
‘It was an excellent attempt.’
‘Of course it was,’ Wren said. ‘I am always excellent.’
Wren’s trying to mimic the way a high lord speaks. Knowing that Valdor hates it. But today it failed.
Probably because at that very moment. Valdor decided to lean forward.
‘You are,’ Valdor said. ‘May I kiss you? Or are you feeling too murderous?’
‘If you don’t kiss me I will start causing problems.’
Valdor allowed himself the smallest of smiles. Before he closed the distance and kissed Wren.
Thank you too @valdormyprogramingiswrong for allowing me to write with Wren! Again I’m sorry that this took so long. Anyway this takes place somewhere in Wren and Valdor’s post being cursed history.
