“a-are you sure?” her voice trembled as she sat in his lap, her hands clutching the fabric of his vest. “i don't want to hurt you...”

“you won’t,” he murmured, his tone so gentle it nearly broke her. “i drank from you, didn't i?”

“i know,” she breathed, glancing up at him, guilt flickering in her eyes. “but you knew what you were doing. i don’t. how could i take from you when you've already given me so much?”

“you’re not taking, my love. you’re sharing. this is what binds us. my life becomes yours, and yours becomes mine. i chose this. i chose you.” he held her gaze, his eyes filled with love and devotion.

her lips parted to protest, revealing her newly grown fangs, but his thumb grazed her jaw, silencing her. “you need this. and i want you to have it. your body will not settle until you’ve had blood. i'll guide you, i'm here.”

one of his hands moved to her thigh, rubbing soothing circles into her skin, while the other rose to cradle the back of her head, guiding her closer to the pale curve of his neck. “when you’re ready,” he whispered, “take what’s yours.”

and when her fangs finally pierce his skin, they will be bound together for eternity — two souls destined to be as one.

“Do you believe in soulmates?” You ask softly, eyes on the ever twinkling night sky and your mind a million miles away. Zoro takes a steady swig of sake, curiously gazing down at you. He knows what you want him to say but he’s never been one to lie.

“No.” Was all he wanted to say, but your slight recoil had his tongue tangling for more words to grasp on to. “Not really.”

Nice save, Roronoa.

“Why not?” You turn to look at him now, away from whatever star had captured your attention and floated you up into a space he could never quite follow.

“Doesn’t make sense to me.” He shrugs, hiding his lips behind the nose of the bottle.

Your wide eyes did nothing but dig at his heart a little more. With a soft sigh, he puts the bottle to the side, trying to figure out how to put it all into words, something he wasn’t keen on doing yet he’d do anything for you.

“I work for what I want. I don’t expect things to be handed to me because some other force said so. I want to be with you because my heart tells me so.”

You’re quiet for a moment as you mull over his words, acceptance spreading across your expression.

“That makes sense.” Your gaze lifts back up at the stars and he almost thinks he said something wrong. “You choose me, not because you have to but because you want to.”

“Yes.” Zoro throws an arm around you and pulls you flush against him, the need to be close to you too strong to ignore anymore. “Just like I choose to be part of the crew and to make myself stronger every day.”

The unspoken confession lies between the words he whispers lowly, that you fall among the core values that are engrained into him and make him who he is.

Nothing can go wrong after a human is forced to take care of two hybrids from different species... right?

“This love is forbidden” Diluc softly murmurs against her skin, the warmth of her blood flowing underneath calling to him.

“But it’s still love. I wont give up.” she replies shakily, watching as lithe fingers slowly unclasp each little button of her blouse. The grip on the stake in her hand loosens as her head falls back against his shoulder and he groans.

“I knew you wouldn’t, you’re stubborn, like me.” he chuckles almost sadly as his fangs rake across her neck, and his eyes sharpen at the sight of her chest heaving with want,

“But you know what will become of this, of us. I can’t let you go through that” he warns, thumb coming to wipe the small tears she cries. His own vision blurs. Stubborn indeed. They’re both too far gone. Their love surpasses tradition, magic, the weight of a hunter and the ancient ache of the vampire.

“We’ll be okay Diluc, if we’re together.” she promises,

He shakily exhales before his teeth begin to sink in and she gasps, feeling a steady stream of her sweet blood flowing into his groaning maw. She drops the stake and her heartbeat slows, a wanton whimper of his name and he gasps, pressing her body closer to his as they both give in to their one desire — each other.
