    Summary

    Working for the Power Broker since before her rise never left you bored, lets you use the extreme set of skills and reputation (they even gave you an alias, Hercules) you gained after your country's violent end without the restraints of legality or moral appeals. Your life had a routine of sorts. Your past was a distant memory until fellow Sokovian royalty, one who was supposed to be in prison, turns up in Madripoor on a mission with conditional freedom. Your search for home long abandoned just to have it smack you over the head with wry smiles and expensive cologne.

    Now that you've found home, you plan on keeping it. No matter what it takes.

    Summary

    Adrian doesn’t let a lot of people touch him, literally or metaphorically. He knows the people he touches have a tendency to leave. So when he finds someone who touches him just right, he pulls them in and doesn’t let go. It’s a revelation, for the both of them.

    A meandering romance between Vigilante and an original character. Rated for violence, language, and eventual smut.
