    Summary

    Edward is the man in charge of the Underground, the hidden world of New Verona, the new head of the Teach mob family. He's fearless. He's smart. He's about to meet his match in the city's philanthropic golden boy, Stede, the heir to the Bonnet business empire.

    When a decades-old feud that had been simmering between the Teachs and Bonnets is sparked back to life in the streets of the city, Edward and Stede find themselves caught in a battle for control. Control over the city, their families, and each other, because the only thing more dangerous than power, is lust.

    Hate the sin.....
    Worship the Sinner

    **Torture tag in reference to mafia affairs. DubCon & Manipulation tag bc Stede doesn't disclose who he is prior (its consensual in this context)**

    Summary

    “How’re you feeling, love?” Ed croaks.

    The endearment slips out and he wants to eat his fucking words until he hears Stede murmur a sleepy “mm, love you too darling.”

    Ed’s chest loosens and a bubbling warmth floods his limbs. He turns his hand over and gives Stede’s a gentle squeeze. Stede squeezes back with his last bits of waking strength and exhales sweetly, “Stay?”

    ---

    Ed takes care of Stede after his swordfight with Izzy.

    Summary

    Stede swallowed a whine, clearly struggling to continue their improv. “Scales could be interesting—”

    He was cut off by a sharp intake of breath as Ed spread his index and middle finger to slide along the underside of one of the largest cups, then massaged the pad of his thumb down into the center of it. “Crab claws could be cool,” he rumbled, feeling an aching warmth build in his pelvis.

    Stede’s eyelids fluttered as his muscles contracted, composed facade slipping away. “Edward, would you still love me if I was a crab?”

    “Oh, definitely,” Ed replied, voice cracking as he slid his other hand down beneath Stede. Another sucker quickly found his hand and they began their mutual exploration, Ed lightly dragging a thumbnail over the ridges of the cup before fluttering along the edge with his index finger. “You’re already a snippy bastard and it’s hot as fuck. Imagine the damage you could do with the added grip strength.”

    ***

    Stede is cursed to grow tentacles whenever he gets wet, and Ed is a huge, horny nerd about it. The story answers the question: "What if a body that changes is fine, actually?"

    Summary

    If Stede were able, he’d brush Ed’s hair behind his ear, press a firm kiss at the base of his jaw, and hold him secure.

    “I’ll never let you go.” he’d say. “I’m here, I love you.”

    Stede is not able. Ed keeps crying.
