♡ Hector had only loved once before meeting you. Likewise, he had only loved once after meeting you. But that didn't mean he wasn't interested in you.
♡ On the contrary, when Dominic had pulled up to the sprawling manor Hector orchestrated, expecting to see Marilyn at his side yet seeing an unfamiliar face in her stead, his curiosity was, admittedly, peaked. No small achievement considering this man has done and seen everything this world has to offer.
♡ Dominic explained – in monotone French – that Marilyn was sick, hence she couldn't come. He'd brought you – a family friend – in her place. You couldn't ignore the waver in his voice, his pointed stare up at his father, who resided in an almost throne-like armchair behind a mahogany desk.
♡ Hector looked through Dominic and gazed at you. You could see now where Dominic's predilection for sharp, underhanded stares originated; the founding father of Dominic's cold architecture.
♡ You felt as if his eyes combed over your very being, unravelling all the tangles in your make-up and laying you down to your most base, threadbare foundations, seeing you for what you really were.
♡ "Very well," the older man grumbled, only taking his eyes off you once Dominic cleared his throat. Beside you, his son's fingers twitched.
♡ You were excused shortly after with Dominic taking you outside, almost jogging down the steps with a haste you'd never witnessed before, and bringing you to a most isolated spot. You'd noticed a collection of staff – chefs, maids, caretakers, gardeners – crawling about the mansion. None of them resided near you now.
♡ "Don't talk to him unless you're with me," Dominic warned. In his eyes watched a man you'd never seen before. Something vaguely...human in the colour of his irises. Warm. Afraid.
♡ Interaction with Dominic's father – Hector – was uncomfortable at first. You'd tried to juggle Hector's hostile hospitality with Dominic's warnings, ultimately toing and forming between the two since they never inhabited the same space for more than ten minutes whenever meals were served.
♡ One day, when Dominic had to leave the manor on important business, unable to take you with him, he'd instructed you to stay in your room. He tried to smooth over the jagged brickwork of his command with a suave charm that could put the incarnation of panic at ease, but you could tell – for perhaps the first time – that it felt false.
♡ Dominic left. Hours passed. You grew bored.
♡ You left your room.
♡ And who did you happen to meet whilst trawling the halls, searching for any form of entertainment?
♡ Why, the very man Dominic had forbidden you from seeing.
♡ Hector came down the hall on certain footing, obviously having taken great care of his mobility in his younger years to be able to traverse the many staircases and rooms this residence held. So why did he have so many caretakers?
♡ You scarcely had time to wonder as, before you could hide, he spotted you. Ordered you to come to him. You did, hesitant. He gave you a monotone look.
♡ "You. Come with me."
♡ You followed him to a door that felt familiar. Inside, his study. On his desk, a pre-set game of chess. He sat at his desk. He motioned for you to join him.
♡ You, with a pounding heart and a strong sense of being out of place, played chess. Hector taught you the best way to win – "For when you compete against Dominic."
