    Summary

    Somehow, I did nanowrimo this year. This is the first chapter of that fic.

     

    This fic is dedicated to several people: my darlings Lisa and Virginia who have listened to me ramble about this man and this fic, and to the whole of the Narcos discord who has had to put up with me babbling about Dune and Gurney Halleck for much longer than just the month of November.

    Summary

    Dr. Jones' warning of 'I need to speak with you' is still ringing in your ears as you slowly begin to gather your things. You try to brush off the looks of the other women in the class, finding their attention at once inquisitive and accusatory.

    Welcome to my latest slow-burn garbage fire.

    Summary

    You’re still surprised—at the fact this man seemingly took you in without expecting some form of payment, and the fact that you’ve allowed yourself to be taken in. You haven’t been in the earnest company of strangers in a long time.

     

    *The term ‘flush’ in the chapter titles has nothing to do with skin tone. It’s in relation to the phrase ‘the first flush of spring’.

    This is a three part series. Points of view switch between Christopher and Reader.
