Summary
"I swore I wouldn't drag you into that world, Spencer," Aaron confessed, his jaw tightening as the old protective instinct flared. " (...) I need to know that doesn't weigh on you. That you don't regret walking down this road with a monster."
"Look at me," Spencer said softly, his voice unwavering. "I don't feel any regret about any of it. Not the torture, not the moniker, not (...) I knew the life I was signing up for when I stepped into your orbit. I knew the darkness you carry, just like you know mine. We chose this. We chose each other."
(...)
"I would stand by you through anything, Aaron," Spencer continued, his thumb brushing over Aaron's lower lip. "Every shadow, every ghost, every line we have to cross. Because I love you."
----
Aaron is a vigilante, killing corrupt individuals while leaving encrypted messages for Spencer in newspapers and via email. This sparks an unpredicted flame of love between the two in a world that is against it. Aaron will do whatever it takes to have Spencer at his side, to have Spencer as his, even if it means making sacrifices he never thought he would. And Spencer would let Aaron burn the world down for him, if it means they can be together.
