For a man so used to pushing people away, hearing those words felt like a blow to the chest—one he wasn’t prepared for. Kael’s expression faltered, the usual stoicism cracking just enough to let a flicker of vulnerability show through.
He shifted closer, his hand hovering near Nagi’s for a moment before finally resting gently on his shoulder. His touch was tentative but steady, and his eyes locked onto Nagi's with an intensity that matched the gravity of the moment.
"I…" Kael began, his voice rough with emotion he wasn’t used to expressing. He hesitated, but there was no turning back now. "I can’t make promises I don’t know if I can keep," he admitted, his voice low, almost a whisper. "But for you…"
Kael swallowed, his thumb brushing lightly against Nagi’s shoulder as if to ground himself. "I’ll try. As long as I can, I’ll stay by your side."
The words were simple, but for Kael, they were monumental—an offering of his loyalty, not just in battle but in something far deeper. His hand slid from Nagi’s shoulder, but instead of pulling away, he let it rest at the nape of Nagi’s neck, his thumb grazing the soft skin there in a way that was both tender and possessive.
"If that’s what you want, Nagi," Kael murmured, his voice now laced with something far more dangerous than vulnerability—desire.
"more than anything" nagi says as he leans into the warmth of kael's hand "even if it is not forever, for as long as we can, i want to be side by side"
Kael's heart pounded in his chest as Nagi leaned into his touch, the warmth of his skin against Kael's hand sending a surge of emotions through him. For a moment, Kael didn’t move, stunned by the intensity of Nagi’s words and the quiet vulnerability in his expression.
Something shifted within Kael—something he had been trying to keep buried for so long. His usual coldness melted in the heat of Nagi’s presence, and before he could stop himself, Kael’s hand slid further along Nagi’s neck, pulling him just a little closer, their faces inches apart now.
“For as long as we can…” Kael echoed, his voice barely more than a murmur, his breath mingling with Nagi’s as the space between them shrank. “Then that’s what I’ll give you.”
His other hand, rough and scarred, came to rest gently on Nagi’s waist, tugging him closer still, the fire crackling quietly beside them as the air between them thickened. The connection, once simmering beneath the surface, was now undeniable, and Kael’s gaze flicked down to Nagi’s lips for a brief moment before meeting his eyes again.
“I’ve tried so hard to keep my distance,” Kael admitted, his voice low and rough with restraint, “but… I don’t think I can anymore.”
There was no more room for hesitation. Kael’s grip tightened ever so slightly on Nagi’s waist as he leaned in, the final inch between them disappearing, his lips brushing against Nagi’s in a soft, tentative kiss—one that held years of suppressed emotion and the unspoken promise of something more.

Kael felt Nagi melt into him, their bodies pressing together as the kiss deepened, the fire between them intensifying. His heart pounded in his chest, the rough edges of his usual composure completely shattered by the feeling of Nagi’s warmth against him, the soft but insistent pull of his lips. What had begun as a tentative touch was now something far more consuming.
Kael's hand slid from Nagi’s neck, trailing down his back with slow, deliberate movements, feeling the heat beneath his skin. His other hand, still resting on Nagi's waist, tightened its grip, pulling the younger man even closer until there was no space left between them. The sensation of their bodies pressed together sent a jolt of desire through Kael, making it impossible to think of anything but the way Nagi responded to his touch.
The kiss grew hungrier, more desperate, as if both of them were finally giving in to something they had tried to resist for too long. Kael’s lips moved against Nagi’s with a newfound urgency, his breath ragged as his hand slid beneath the layers of Nagi’s shirt, fingertips grazing the skin at the small of his back, drawing him deeper into the moment.
“Nagi,” Kael breathed against his lips, his voice heavy with desire, his usually stoic demeanor completely undone by the fire that now burned between them. “I need you.”
The admission was raw, barely more than a whisper, but it carried all the weight of Kael’s emotions—the fear, the longing, and the need he had tried to bury for so long. His hand traveled lower, gripping Nagi’s hips with a possessive intensity, his lips brushing against Nagi's neck, tasting the sweat and heat of the battle that had brought them to this moment.
"then take me kael, take me and my entire being" nagi says as his breathe hitched
Kael's heart raced at Nagi's words, his entire body responding to the intensity of the moment. Nagi’s voice, the way his breath hitched, sent a surge of desire through him that he could no longer hold back. His hand tightened on Nagi's hips, pulling him impossibly close, their bodies now pressed together in a way that left nothing between them.
