It was hard to imagine something you’d never really had. A sane, stable, consent-filled relationship was kind of like an end of the rainbow chest of gold, it was something Dina knew existed but had never expected to find. She hadn’t been the girl for long relationships in the past, save for the one she’d shared with Brynna. No matter how safe and sane he made her feel, she couldn’t really trust that she wouldn’t destroy them somehow. Yet every time she thought they would hit a snag, he managed to make it all okay. She couldn’t help but chuckle softly. “You know you’re speaking greek or something right? I get that it is your intention not to treat me that way, but you have to be aware that half this city expects you to, and by law I am your property. If I fuck up, it all comes back to you.” Sighing against his lips, she leaned into the kiss, closing her eyes for a moment. “I will treasure it as best I can.” she murmured back.
Kai knew how to give. That’s what he did in every relationship, because he thought he needed to give in order to keep people around. In order for people to love him. That is what he was good at. And while he loved to give, he loved that Dina gave him something in return. Something he never thought he’d have. It was a peculiar relationship, yes, but Kai wouldn’t want to change a thing. He loved this woman. She was his, and he was hers, that’s all that mattered. Kai shrugged his shoulders at her words. “Just because they expect me to, doesn’t mean I will. And if it falls back to me, whatever. Do what you want to do, don’t worry about me.” He said softly, smiling against her lips. “Please don’t break it.” He whispered, a little bit of vulnerability shining through.
