Show!Mal and Pet!Aleksander for @gotta-love-them-losers, part of the Grisha Rarepair Exchange!
Short excerpt paired with the gifset:
“Sit down, today. I’ll be in charge.”
Aleksander’s racing thoughts stop to do as told. He looks up now from the bed, quiet, waiting for his mind to run back to old habits: to planning the day’s expectant deeds, plan correspondence, plan orders, to be the one doing everything. The work never ends.
Lazy steps come up to him. There is Mal, who walks close enough to touch, but doesn’t. Mal, with a promise in the shape of the leather lead trailing on the carpet.
It should be demeaning, humiliating to want it. Aleksander remains silent, an excited expectance making his breath tremble.
Mal raises it for him.
“So put on your collar and follow.”
I hope you like it @gotta-love-them-losers! ♥ There will be more of your prompts in the week ;)!!
