a castle all alone

Summary:

Eclipse was all alone for years, ruling a land so vast and yet no one could comfort him. until Sun. Sun who shone brighter then his namesake.
Sun worked hard all his life, not enough money, not enough food. all because of the king and his stupid policies. at least that was his attitude until he met the king himself. then he was in love.
but what happens when one stabs the other in the back?

Notes:

Chapter 1: the wedding

Chapter Text

A humming sound is heard as a tall figure walks down the hall of cells. Prisoners paw at his boots through the bars, claiming they had changed. Just please let them out!
They are all ignored in favor of making sure the cake in his hand doesn’t fall.
The godlike figure walks to the very end where the captive from the war sits with his back to the cell. Golden rays pulled into his head as the only sign of fear.
“Eat”
A command as the cake is shoved through the food slot.
Ignored
“Please”
Ignored
“It’s your favorite.”
Ignored
“Just tell me what you want… please eat”
Begging.
Ignored.
The tall figure straightens up, taking a deep breath and pulling out a key, unlocking the doors. His orange rays retract to duck into the prison cell. He sits down next to the starving one.
“Please Sun.”
But Sun wasn’t there. He hadn’t been there for a long time. Preferring a constant state of sleep.

 

10 years earlier.

Sun giggles as Eclipse kisses his faceplate. It was the day before their wedding and the dark bot couldn’t contain his affection.
“Get a room you two!” Moon calls out from his seat behind the bar.
They didn’t like the idea of a traditional bachelor party. Plus no one was the bachelorette so it would make things rather awkward. So instead the couple had a last night without you party. With all of their friends and family. It was beautiful. It was perfect. Nothing could mess this up.

 

One day later

Wedding bells rung as Eclipse dips Sun dramatically and kisses him deeply. They had promised each other to wait until marriage to make it all the more sweet and they both had a desire rooted deep into their hearts.

That night

Clothes were ripped off and flesh hit flesh in a loving burst of sweet loving need.
Steel flashed and found pale skin.
Red.
So much red.

 

How could he do this…? I gave him everything… anything he wanted… to be stabbed literally in the back. While making love for the first time no less! Is that why he wanted to wait for marriage…? Because he didn’t want to touch me at all…?

Chapter 2: assassin.

Summary:

warning for slight suicidal feelings.
don't know if that's the right way to warn that but it could be triggering.

Chapter Text

Eclipse wraps his arms around his starving love, leaning his head against the mans chest
“Just eat… Sunny… things can go back to how they used to be… I can erase you and your family's involvement… I miss you…”
Tears start to drip down both their faces and Sun finally moves. He pushes Eclipse away but takes the cake and starts eating.
“I don’t regret it.”
“I don’t care. I miss you too much…”
Eclipse couldn’t bring himself to care about the words coming from his sunshine's mouth. Because he was talking and eating. That’s all that matters.

 

9 years earlier.

“Anything to report, general?” Eclipse paced in front of the other officials
“No my lord. The rebels are still active.”
“I don’t give two fucks about the activity of the rebels! My husband?! Have you tracked him down yet?!”
“No my lord. Their attacks are still spread out and traces are never left behind.”
Eclipse groans in disappointment, waving to dismiss the general before retiring to his room.

Laying in his satin sheets and silk pillows the lord felt empty. He never slept. He only got a bed to share it with Sun. Now all his hopes and dreams were crushed under the heel of one light yellow foot.
Fantasy’s were the only escape. Dreaming of Sun sneaking through the window, apologizing, embracing him… but that would neve-

CRASH

Broken glass. He could tell it was from the window across from his bed. Eclipse closed his eyes and rolled onto his back.
Sun was his whole life. His everything. He’d never heard a name more accurate. Sun was the light, the only thing that made this life worth it. If some assassin wanted to kill him… maybe it would be worth it.

 

Sun walked over to his husband's bed and sat on the edge, gently fidgeting with the ornate dagger in his hand. Why was Eclipse just laying there? He was supposed to be awake for this. Is he awake? His breathing is too irregular for him to be asleep. So why is he just… isn’t he gonna fight back?
“Eclipse…?”

The king bolted upright. Sun. He was here. Why was he here? Oh… a dagger… he’s going to kill me… oh well. There are worse ways to go then in the arms of your love.
“Are you going to do it…?”
“Yes.”
“Thank you for letting me see you before I die.”

 

Moon paced back and forth in the leader's tent. He could sense Kacey’s eyes on him. Where was Sun? He should’ve been back by now! Did something go wrong?!
He practically jumped out of his skin when Sun walked in, looking like he’d seen a ghost.
“SUN! Are you ok? Did something happen? Did you kill him?”
“We.. We miscalculated. There were too many guards. I couldn’t even get into his room.”
