Chapter Text

It didn’t bother him, someone showing up to kill him.

Awakeners killed each other all the time. Friends murdered friends. Family slaughtered family.

A Top Fifty gunning for a new Top Ten? Typical, shrug-worthy, in comparison.

Yet his chest ached fierce, watching Pluton’s tail wag in the little puppy form Kayden gave him. Imagining that puppy as a man fluttered a feeling deep in his belly.

Seeing Pluton gently nibble his apprentice’s gift-bone staked the flutters through his gut.

In terms of prestige, power, Kayden expected this— knew the challenge inevitably ahead.

But why did it have to be him?

Notes:

Finally wrote for Kayden/Pluton yoooo! Posting mid-tornado warning, but gotta get those rarepairs in. Also, ship name is KayPlu imo. -plu reminds me of storms, pleuvoir, pluvas, etc
