@BroodingValor Alec was so.. different.. so..
She never intended to fall for him. Nor to.. fall for anything but her work..
Yet here they were... with only one step left for her to take until she'd be.. right up in his personal space.

[𝘓𝘺𝘥𝘪𝘢 𝘉𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘸𝘦𝘭𝘭 @headstrongenvoy]

@BroodingValor He was nervous?.. of course he'd be. And didn't that just..
He was so soft. So pure. It was.. after her husband died.. she had been hit on. There had been men who wanted to.. but no. Lydia couldn't. She was convinced she'd never feel.. what she had felt for John.. but Alec.. +++

[𝘓𝘺𝘥𝘪𝘢 𝘉𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘸𝘦𝘭𝘭 @headstrongenvoy]

@BroodingValor But she's not moving either.. almost as if she felt that he needed this right now. And quite honestly.. so did she.

@BroodingValor

Lydia stepped into their office, wearing black tights and a black cropped top. Her hair was slighty damp from sweat, but that was about it.
Her sparring session with Isabelle had been great. The two of them got along a lot better now. In fact.. They had become +++

@BroodingValor female. And why would it? He was her husband. She.. she loved him. The rest was just.. details.

"A distraction, huh?" Now t h a t made her lips twitch. "I could help with that.." such a sweet wife she was... So selfless and thoughtful. my my.
"Want me to finish it for you?" ++

least some assistance.
This was t h e i r job and their duty, their office and their Institute after all.
It was not him and him alone who had to carry the weight of leading it. It was a team effort. They were a team.
Husband and wife.
Lovers. Spouses. Together.
A t e a m .
Mhm.

And with those words she made her way over to Alec. But not to sit down beside him. No, no. She pulled his chair back a bit, sat down on his lap and turned to the report infront of him. "Do you need help with that?" He had been in here for hours... He deserved a break. Or at +++

[𝘓𝘺𝘥𝘪𝘢 𝘉𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘸𝘦𝘭𝘭 @headstrongenvoy]

@BroodyNephilim No idea how much of his heart she holds... that statement was quite accurate.
But..
It went both ways..
He had no idea just how much of hers he held in his hand...
No idea at all..

[𝘓𝘺𝘥𝘪𝘢 𝘉𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘸𝘦𝘭𝘭 @headstrongenvoy]

@BroodyNephilim and..
arms..and this scent.. and the voice.

"...Alec?" Was that.. a heartbeat?
His.. heartbeat?
What was going on here....

Lydia opened her eyes slowly, head tilting up to... blink blink blink the blurriness away and...
Oh.
He was.. here?
"When...what happened?"

[𝘓𝘺𝘥𝘪𝘢 𝘉𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘸𝘦𝘭𝘭 @headstrongenvoy]

@BroodyNephilim time to call the police which had scared the cowards off.

Still..
Everyone remained scared, frightened.. and how could they not?

Everyone but Lydia, obviously.
Because she was still..very much unconscious.

Everything was... quiet. Dark.
and then..
She felt herself heal.
