I Love How Damen Consequently Uses The Wordsmaking Love To Describe What They Shared (i. E.you Knew Who

i love how Damen consequently uses the words “making love” to describe what they shared (i. e. ‘you knew who i was the night we made love’) and Laurent, over and over again, calls it “fucking” - to be dismissive, hurtful, to distance himself, and to erease the emotional aspect of it, that it meant something to him, as well as Damen (’if you knew, how could you–’ ‘let you fuck me?’ // ‘let’s fuck’ // ‘you want to fuck me’), but the moment his walls crumble, the moment he lets himself have it, Laurent says, ‘when you make love to me like that, i can’t think’      

‘Technically. I told you I was quite good at riding. I used to beat Auguste all the time when we raced at Chastillon. It took me until I was nine to realise he was letting me win. I just thought I had a very fast pony….’

Dear Aledosia, (12,368 words)  Chapters: 3/3   Summary: “Oh,” Laurent finds himself saying. Damianos has excused himself from his conversation, and has begun to make his way through the crowd. Here stand the Princes of Vere, after all. The ethereal Veretian Prince brothers.

Laurent ducks away..

“What’s a death but easy, quick. It’s supposed to haunt you forever that the one time he beat you was the one time that mattered.”

I’ve never fallen so hard into a book series so quickly, I just needed to draw a bunch of the characters from Captive Prince. 

To the fandom of Captive Prince: please know I really love you and thanks for the arts, prompts, ficlets and any fics you wrote because I usually read them before sleeping (and if you ever wrote AU where Auguste lives, thumb up!)
