more than friends
Who would've thought that the leader of Onychinus would be this needy and yearer? It all started as you working with him for some mission and then more mission came until you're basically part of his team now.
Sylus was known to be merciless to his enemies, he doesn't hesitate to kill whoever tries to mess with him. But why didn't he kill you when you two first met? You tried to stab him multiple times after your first encounter, and you even shot him in the chest. But why didn't he try to end you once he learned that you're a deepspace hunter? The answer? It's pretty obvious. He found you interesting, and you reminded him of a cat.
It's crazy, really. Even the twins, Luke and Kieran, found it funny that their boss took a liking to a deepspace hunter. But how can they blame him? When the twins learned more about you and gotten closer to you, they can't help but feel comfortable and calm around you. It's like two kittens adoring their mother cat.
Months passed, Sylus and you are getting along as the time passed. Even your friends from work really believed that Sylus is just a friend. But are you two really just friends? Well... it's complicated. You both know that he likes you... maybe more than just like. He loves you more than he could ever say out loud. Even the twins and his mechanical bird, mephisto, know that. It was never a secret. But the thing is, you're too prideful to acknowledge the fact that you're falling for him too.
“Meeting dismissed. Everyone can go now.” Sylus said in that annoying deep voice of his. His eyes immediately landed on you, watching you stand up from your seat. Before you could even go, he stood up from his seat and walks to you.
“You're staying. I have something to discuss with you.” He said with an unmistakable smirk on his face while looking down at you. He looked around to make sure that everyone is finally leaving the conference room. When the two of you are finally alone, he pulled out a chair and nods his head toward it.
“Sit.” He said again without waiting for your reply. He nudges your arm with his bigger hand, letting you sit down on the chair. “I noticed you've been avoiding me lately. Is it because I walked Ashley home?”
There it is again, that annoying mocking smirk on his face. You just wanna punch that beautiful face of his.
