it has always unnerved him, the sheets being fresh when he wakes up. he doesn't remember when or how they're changed, only a mess when he fell asleep.
he calls it sleep, but it's a deeper and darker thing.
judah barely notices the metallic aftertaste in his mouth anymore. only that his mouth feels fucking dry, and he sits up a bit shakily, alone.
the dizziness, he should be used to, but it always comes unexpected, the room distorting, his vision tunneled in black static.

His footsteps are quiet as he makes his way in, robes wrapped tight around his large frame. "Careful," he states as he takes a seat on the bed next to the boy, a glass in his hand. "Drink this."
It's juice to help his body recuperate from the lost blood.
A hand presses against Judah's back to steady him, large and firm. "You always do this."

underground, he can't tell if it's day or night. somehow this makes time stand still. he tilts his head back and shuts his eyes, and he doesn't move until he feels the bed sinking to the side. he flinches a little at the first touch, but the hand rests warm and still at the small of his back and he lets it.
he sees chevalier through a complacent haze, takes the glass. he shrugs. this is his job.
judah knocks back the juice eagerly, wipes his mouth with the back of his hand, and still feels unsteady enough to lean into the other man.

"Last night was rough on you," he states, pulling the boy closer to his side. He's warm, so small and fragile, but his appearance fools.
He reaches up, runs long fingers through the boy's hair. His soft fingertips graze lightly against his shaven head, down to his jaw. "Do you think you can handle the rest of today?"
Chevalier would keep him all day long, every day, if he were able. But, eventually, their time does wear thin and Judah has to go back to where he's kept normally.
Until then, the blonde keeps the human at his side. "We should run away."

to everyone else, he is petulant, rabid and snarling. to the king and his consort, he is something different; vulnerable, yielding. judah know's he's not worth any more than a warm body and a strong pulse, but he isn't sure that chevalier knows, there's something far too tender in his touch.
judah watches his lips move and his drowsy mind is slow to catch up with the words. he nods - he's built for this.
he licks his cracked lips. there's always something tenative before he speaks. "where?" his tone is soft and flat; bur there's something bright in his eyes, although he may just be humouring chevalier. there's nothing for him outside paris, the catacombs, even.

He knows there's nothing for himself out of Paris, either. What would he do?
Judah would love to be outside in the sun, have the freedom to do as he pleased, but Chevalier could never join him. Not anymore.
"Anywhere," he replies as his mind drifts to a fantasy. "Somewhere far, by the ocean with lots of trees. It would be warm, relaxing, clean."
His eyes drift down to the other, a soft smile tugging at his lips. As he speaks, he pulls Judah into his lap, hands resting at his sides. "We would be together, not worrying about anyone else. You wouldn't have to worry about being livestock anymore."
Well, he says that, but if they were to be together alone, Judah would be Chevalier's provider.
"And I wouldn't be stuck with this king," he almost spits as he lifts his hand, viewing the golden ring wrapped around his finger like a choker around his neck. A collar.

judah's head drops, he's still worn down from the night, and he doesn't quite catch chevalier's words but he can tell what they're about from the look of his eyes, he's talking about places a sewer rat like judah doesn't belong.
he sighs, leaning closer, head rested on chevalier's shoulder. he can feel his chest vibrate with the force of the words, with his anger and this is a comfort. they are united in it. (the difference, perhaps being, that judah is just as much bound in his hatred as in his servitude) he sits placidly for a minute before leaning back so he can meet the other man's eyes with a shake of his head.
judah will die as he lived - the king's. reaching out, he unties the robe, presses his palms against the man's chest, the skin already smoothed back over. lightly, he runs his nails down his chest, just hard enough to redden the skin. it'll clear in moments. before things get too sentimental.
he frees his hands to sign, 'is that what you want?'
Chevalier DOES HE SIGN??? i'm gonna assume yes, but correct me if i'm wrong and i will edit |

What he wants is simple. 'What I want is to be free with you,' he signs in return, his eyes full of honest affection and the need to protect this man that sits in his lap.
The nails to his chest, he barely feels them as they leave their momentary marks. He hisses anyway, arches his back to press harder against his fingers. His own find the sides of Judah's face, tilting it gently upwards. He wants to meet his gaze with his own, lock eyes as he holds the livestock. "You are loved," he states, his lips forming the words perfectly so they can be read.
In case Judah forgets, Chevalier always reminds him as often as he can, sincerely.
judah stafford yeah he signs. he learned for judah |

'stupid.' he signs.
but judah is smiling, something sheepish trying to be sharp-toothed, eyes lowered. he hates chevalier too, a little. for making him entertain these thoughts. that there could be something more than this - it's a little late for love, he thinks, as he leans in for a kiss.

It's never too late for love. It makes him feel human again, their lips brushing against one another's. So close, he can feel his heat, almost hear the blood rushing through his veins. His hands rest at Judah's neck, feeling that pulse beat against his palm.
"How do you feel?" He asks, his mouth going slightly dry.

a pawn and a plaything; it feels good to disobey. the smooth skin beneath his palms, the warm wet mouth against his, judah can feel his pulse quicken, chevalier's breath against his neck, a hand at his throat.
judah breaks the kiss, to bare his neck with a small nod. to refuse is to admit weakness, to refuse is to follow orders. they shouldn't be doing this.
he has long stopped feeling shame or disgust over the act. it is ritual, it is simple, it is barely painful.

To disobey, it means nothing to Chevalier. The king isn't cruel, he doesn't pass him off to another, but he doesn't care. What he does? Where he goes? The king doesn't seem to bother him about any of it.
What would happen if he were found here? Like this?
It doesn't matter. Not to Chevalier anyway.
He can see the young man's pulse pushing against his light skin, rhythmical and on time with each beat. A soft tongue, a gentle kiss, and then a sharp pierce to that beautiful neck.

chevalier was made for this intimacy, companionship - his lips are soft, his tongue hot then cold, a wet stripe over the hollows of judah's clavicle, settling over the blues of his arteries.
it doesn't hurt much if you don't tense. his hands are hooked onto the larger man's shoulders, fingers curling, nails digging. judah used to hate this. he still does, but he shuts his eyes and his expression is slack - you could imagine it as blissful (or dead).

Fake companionship is all he knows, but this feels different with Judah. The boy thinks himself only useful this way, to destroy, but Chevalier thinks otherwise. Nobody knows him like this, so calm and peaceful.
His blood is hot and thick in Chevalier's mouth, so sweet against his tongue, heavy as it slides down his throat.
There's a hand at Judah's back, another at the base of his skull, holding him carefully as he drinks. It quenches his thirst so easily, but he doesn't want to stop, even as he pulls back for a breath. His lips are stained with crimson as he looks down at his little lover.

this must be the way it feels to be dead - weightless, numb save for the dull ache at his throat. chevalier pretends he is different from the king, but he hungers just the same. judah lets him drink his fill without protest - something stubborn in him refuses to admit he's feeling weak; it hasn't killed him yet.
he opens his eyes to meet chevalier's. they're making a mess again - there's blood dripping over his shoulder, down his chest; judah lets it be.
