Chapter Text
a soft sigh escapes
from his lips as he
holds him tightly.
"i don't want to kill you."
"i don't want to die."
a pitiful look appears
on the lover's face as
he gazes up into the
false stars.
"i have my duties."
"neglect them for me, alatus."
a hum leaves his
lips as he ponders
his next choice of
words, of actions.
"i can't betray my archon."
"it's not betrayal. disobedience, maybe."
the lover looks into
the other's eyes.
"this is a war. and we're on opposing-"
"i love you."
