[ One bitter thought was there and then swept away by relief. Lyney doesn’t feel alone — doesn’t think of Lynette much at all in some damn miracle of events. Strong, protective arms and those idle touches keep him centered nicely.
It takes an immense trust for this to continue on, Lyney knows that. Wriothesley sacrificed boundaries and gives into something like Lyney does. They weren’t inmate and warden, subject and Duke — if was deeper than that. Lyney isn’t sure why even as those fears in his heart and tears in his eyes keeps him kissing.
What had he done? What awaits after those lips pry themselves away and words beg to spill past their lips like spit? Lyney has to know.
Slowly the boy pulls back, webs connecting them and Lyney’s palms on either side of Wriothesley’s scarred neck. They share a breath, deep and heavy… and even then no words follow.
Fluttery gaze, the tip of his nose to the Duke’s — hurt still rests under the gestures but he stays close and hopes it can be lost. Just for a short while to not feel alone. ]
