Tiramisu, part three/chapter eight [for Dessert, Two Ways; omega Will/alpha Hannibal; Dolce/Digestivo fix-it]

Omega Will travels to Florence and induces an artificial heat, intending for alpha Hannibal to either claim him or kill him. Mason intends to have fun entertaining them as his guests, however, whether they're mated or not.

Watching Hannibal wrap gauze around each wrist and ankle, Will can’t help but think of the night he killed Randall Tier. His touch had been so gentle, so full of devotion. Acting as Jack’s lure had brought Will impossibly close to Hannibal, close enough that he could almost understand Hannibal’s reasoning for hurting him so greatly. Hannibal’s hands brought him even closer. Still, Will was conflicted between the wants of his heart and the reason of his mind.

He’s not conflicted any longer. Whether Hannibal has groomed him for this or not, Will doesn’t care. This is where he wants to be, and where he should have been all along.

Tiramisu, part five/chapter ten [for Dessert, Two Ways; omega Will/alpha Hannibal; Dolce/Digestivo fix-it]

Omega Will travels to Florence and induces an artificial heat, intending for alpha Hannibal to either claim him or kill him. Mason intends to have fun entertaining them as his guests, however, whether they’re mated or not.

The relief Will feels at Hannibal’s touch is as substantial as the touch, itself. Hannibal doesn’t release him quickly, unbuckling one strap at a time, and Will hadn’t realized how skittish he felt until the pressure on his muscles begins to disappear. When the whine he feels building in his throat can’t escape, the panic starts to build again; all the bravado Will had felt once he scented Hannibal in the room rushes out of him at once. Will hears the beeping on the monitor begin to pick up speed.

But Hannibal is there—“Breathe, darling, breathe for me.” His hands grip Will’s forearms where the restraints had been, where the first long strap had gone; Hannibal rubs up and down, soothing, grounding. Will hears his heart rate begin to slow again, inhales and exhales along with the movement of Hannibal’s thumbs back and forth on the inside of both arms. The consistent pressure reminds Will of the way he’d thought of Hannibal being a weighted blanket; it feels like it was a week ago, but it was only just yesterday.

“Good boy,” Hannibal says, and Will feels the first trickle of slick ease its way around the plug. He’s going to be such a fucking mess when Hannibal takes it out, and his eyes flutter closed at the thought of Hannibal cleaning him up. Will is torn between kicking himself for using the inducers in the first place and congratulating himself on melding with his true self, at last.

His head is released, though Will isn’t sure exactly how, as Hannibal’s hands remain on his arms. The straps come off of his wrists, his ankles, from over his chest and thighs, and it’s too much all at once, entirely too much, because there was a strange safety in being bound, though it wasn’t safe, not a bit, not from Cordell, who could have bitten him and taken him and Will would’ve let him and—

“I’m here,” and Will can barely hear him over the racing of the monitor, though Hannibal’s breath is warm on Will’s face. The gurney creaks beneath additional weight, and then Hannibal’s body is lying over his. They touch as if through a mirror, arm atop arm, leg to leg. Hannibal tucks his face into Will’s neck and begins to lick over the scent glands there.

Tiramisu, part four/chapter nine [for Dessert, Two Ways; omega Will/alpha Hannibal; Dolce/Digestivo fix-it]

Omega Will travels to Florence and induces an artificial heat, intending for alpha Hannibal to either claim him or kill him. Mason intends to have fun entertaining them as his guests, however, whether they’re mated or not.

When Hannibal comes to, he and Will are bound--hog-tied, he notes, and how perfectly expected. They seem to be in some kind of refrigerated compartment, a shipping container, perhaps. Hannibal can’t be sure, fastened to the wall as he is. A quick wiggle of his fingers is all it takes to discover the combination lock with a single dial.

Amateurs, he thinks. A three-hour break at most. Hannibal begins to work the dial, spinning it with one thumb while counting the notches with the nail of the other.

The compartment is dark, but Hannibal’s eyes adjust quickly. Will lies against the opposite side of the plane, eyes closed, shaking. It’s so reminiscent of the seizure Will suffered under his own care; Hannibal can’t help the snarl. This is his omega, his mate. Will’s ecstasies and miseries belong to him. Only him.

Comfort is what Hannibal wants to bestow right now, however. He wants to gather Will into his arms; swallow his sobs; undress him slowly; wipe him down with a cool cloth until his whines turn to moans, until his hips twitch and move of their own volition. The compulsion to care is foreign to Hannibal. All he’s been able to think about since Will collapsed on the way to the apartment is spoiling him. Will deserves a devotion to match his own.

There’s the disgusting stench of sweat and swine and unwashed bodies, but Hannibal can still smell Will, the sweetness of his heat, so like the encephalitis that Hannibal almost regrets his past actions. But Will is lovely in his pain. Regret would be a disservice to them both.

“Darling,” he whispers when he can contain himself no longer, and Will’s eyelashes flutter in response. “Beloved.”

Will groans. “Hannibal.”

Tiramisu: In chapters six through ten, omega Will travels to Florence and induces an artificial heat, intending for alpha Hannibal to either claim him or kill him. Mason intends to have fun entertaining them as his guests, however, whether they're mated or not. [start from the beginning]

Will has murdered a man, desecrated part of his corpse, and eaten the rest of him, but this still feels like his most illicit act. He balked over how Hannibal had broken and repaired and molded him; now, here he is, a bottle of illegal heat inducer in his hand, preparing to change himself.

This is a monumentally stupid idea. The problem is that Will keeps having those, typically all at once, and the results are always the worst ones possible.

Maybe I could tell Chiyoh to have Hannibal meet me at a cliff, instead, Will thinks. Then we could pull a Thelma and Louise and we wouldn’t keep trying to kill each other. Or anyone else, for that matter.

He’d known that he shouldn’t go to the Lecter estate—another terrible idea, as was going to Palermo, and sailing to Europe, and getting in the goddamn boat in the first goddamn place. Serves him right for listening to the hallucination of an eighteen-year-old dead girl, he supposes. The place had practically called to him, though, yet another ghost to chase, to touch, to possess. Walking the grounds made him feel closer to Hannibal than elevating Randall with him had, both of them elbow-deep in guts and gore, both of them grinning like idiots.

Panna Cotta: In chapters one through five, alpha Will travels to Florence to face his fate. When his presence sends omega Hannibal into an unexpected heat, they face the consequences--and reap the benefits--of accepting both their true natures and each other. [start from the beginning]

Mason’s surviving henchmen had bound the two of them together for the trip, leaving he and Will tied both inside and out. The tranquilizer had left Will’s face slumped into Hannibal’s neck, still mouthing at the bondmark; as for Hannibal, the drug had only worked for a short while, his metabolism still in overdrive from his heat, though it was helpful in making it somewhat manageable. He’d found the flight over rather pleasant, seeing as they were kept in a refrigerated compartment.

Their fledgling bond had apparently joined their minds, too, an extremely rare but not unheard of phenomenon. In the palace Hannibal now shared with him, Will lavished his skin with kisses once his own tranquilizer wore off and he awoke. He held Hannibal close in the softest of beds, satisfied his heat with his fingers, eventually refusing to remove them.

“I’m going to keep you plugged,” promised Will. “You’ll never have to feel empty again.”

“I look forward to it,” Hannibal said, and he honestly did.

“And to my discipline?”

The optimist believes we live in the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears this is true. This is your best possible world, Will. You're not getting a better one.

Except for an unseen world in a mirrored universe, that is. It isn't necessarily better, but it is different.
