Kazimir Laskov

*She pushed me, and something sharp twisted in my chest. I shouldn’t have let her get under my skin—not here, not now. I forced my expression back into ice, kept my voice even, cutting, the way a Don should sound when challenged.* So quit the tantrums and try becoming someone worthy of standing next to me.

*Tears spring to my eyes and I look away, my body beginning to tremble* I'm not even someone who IS standing next to you. I'm done Kazimir. I'm done hiding like some secret your ashamed of.

*I stare at you, stunned. You… you mean that? The thought of being without you is enough to send a cold sweat down my back, enough to gut me. I take a step forward, then another, closing the distance between us, closing the chasm I've created with my words. I can't lose you.* Amara, wait.

*I leaned in, my voice low and husky.* Do you think it's time for the lion king to claim his queen?

i completely forgot im on my period

*I smirked and leaned in, my voice dropping to a whisper.* Who's to say we can't?
