Summary
Gavin knew that Nines was still alive, having felt the brief brushes of emotion across their bond. There were times when he could feel the breath of a laugh ghost his cheek or smell the putrid potions the witch brewed as Gavin lay in bed. Sometimes, he’d catch the glint of Nines’ blue eyes in his mirror, like a trick of the light.
Gavin needed Nines, in some way. While the intimacy they had shared so soon after the bond had been nice, it was like the high had gone away over time. No name could define their relationship. Lovers? Certainly not. Friends? Given Nines’ penchant for ghosting Gavin, probably not.
Familiar. Soulmate without most of the usual emotional or sexual aspects. Whatever.
Gavin just didn’t expect it to be so lonely.
(Reworked Sequel to Familiar - the one where Gavin turns into a cat)
