Short summary: The Almata expense report doesn’t add up and a mint-haired man may be to blame…
“Hmm…”
Gerard frowns as he reviews the latest expense report. Something doesn’t add up here. He knows that hiring the Garden Overseers Olympia and Arioch would be expensive, but…
His eyes flick over towards Melchior who’s draped his limbs all over the coach while playing with his Xipha. Melchior is…certainly someone. Honestly, Gerard hadn’t known much about Melchior before they met professionally, but finding out later that his own spawn ended up in Melchior’s Garden was rather funny, considering how compatible he and Melchior seem to be. He’s sure those kids are doing fine there. Not that he really cares. He never cared for his lineage although he takes advantage of it when he needs to. He has a different goal, a very different goal, and that’s the reason he and Melchior are compatible.
Well, it doesn’t hurt that compatibility extends to the bedroom. Gerard doesn’t fuck Melchior because Melchior is especially attractive.

The sharp red eyes convey Melchior’s being much more accurately, but red is a common sight in Gerard’s daily life. Mint only reminds him of Melchior.

Melchior’s sing-song voice makes Gerard chuckle. After a little laugh he smirks. “Yourself.”
Melchior’s gleeful expression immediately shifts. It’s still playful but with a dark edge when he replies. “I’m not really a masochist but if punishment came from your hands…”
So a little role-play? Melchior definitely knows that Gerard isn’t mad. He of all people would know that Gerard enjoys consuming mints, since he often does so after meals, before any type of play…
“You asked for it.”
And, well, Gerard is done with his expense report. And Melchior is definitely bored. Why not kill two birds with one stone?
Gerard pops a mint into his mouth before stalking over to the couch and, to a mint-haired man’s delight, pressing those slender limbs down roughly, and eagerly…
