Poenus: How Azrael falls (BL)

The Sword

DRACO

Everything hurt, he was awake but he couldn’t find the strength to move. Memories of the previous events resurfaced in his mind and he suppressed a groan from the bits and bits of information slowly coming off his mind.

An assassin…..some sort of jewel with some magic that I cancelled…..Leah panicking….a kiss?

His brows furrowed at that, why would a kiss be involved in some sort of action event playing out in his mind? Who would he kiss anyway? Leah? He shook his head at that as much as he loved her too damn much he respected her also.

The assassin? Why would I kiss the assassin? I’m a guy…….and the assassin also turned out to be a guy…….

But for some reason a voice at the back of his mind was confirming that he did indeed kissed the feminine looking assassin with perfect hair he grew to be jealous of

What the heck?……

“You kissed a guy?” a deep voice asked and he didn’t need to open his eyes to know who the person was, and did he just voiced his thoughts out loud?

Cracking one eye open he was greeted with Kiel’s perplexed face staring down at him and he frowned at how the fellow general was invading his personal space.

“Get away from me” he snapped and the crimson haired general backed away, arms raised

“Why you gotta be so salty?” he gave the man a pointed look, what in the heavens is he talking about?

“Did you lick me while I was asleep to prove your claim?”

“Why do you have to take things so literally?” the taller general face palmed

“How long was I out?” he asked instead because really he didn’t want to bicker with this person who puts up with a certain fashion obsessed general 24/7. If he was soft then he would pity him.

“Almost a week, the palace is in chaos without you managing things” the fellow general stared nonchalantly

He slapped a hand on his forehead, meetings, accounts and that one diplomatic visit plagued his mind as he jumped out of bed suddenly feeling energized. Other than Mina he was few of the persons in the palace that actually do their jobs, without him managing things he was sure issues would pop up like those mushrooms that seemed to appear out of nowhere. He ignored Kiel’s shouts, something about him being dressed inappropriately and got out of the infirmary startling nurses and patients alike.

I still have to submit that petition about the cost of armour, Je’hel still hasn't submitted the earnings of those damned brothels. Does this country even need brothels? Why did we even agree on constructing them? Hell we could have some income through other means. Not to mention the accommodations on the prince that would arrive in 6 months still haven't been reported to me, oh wait I don't handle that department…….

He dashed through the corridors completely ignoring the guards and servant’s aghast faces as he focused on getting to his room fetching his armour. He was sure Sasha would scold her too… In a frenzy he bumped into someone casing him to sprawl all over the marble floors, he hastily sat up preparing to apologize but frowned seeing who he had bumped into.

“What the fu- Draco?!” wide yellow eyes flashed in glee it’s pupils dilating into slits

“Cat” he regarded the human-cat before him. His short midnight hair was messy as if he’d rolled out of bed. His ears two furry ears with black fur would often twitch. Unlike his sister Mina who preferred her body covered, he preferred to be naked and would often jump around the palace like the cat he is. Thankfully he was forced by Mina to at least wear pants. He sported black baggy pants it’s waistband dropping dangerously low showing off the v line below his hips.

“I have a name you know?” he pouted and the general rolled his eyes

“I don’t have time for your games, I’ll be taking my leave now” he strode past the human cat but said human cat’s tail gripped his forearm

“Do you even have any idea what you look like right now?” he frowned, Kiel did say something about him inappropriately dressed.

“Pray tell what do I look like?” he faced the human cat who was giggling and it made his mood dampen. Waving a hand and a full length mirror appeared before him.

Damn cats with their damned magic

He glared at the human cat who was beckoning him to look he huffed and looked at his reflection.

Sugar honey ice tea! What sorcery is this?

He wondered how dense was he to not know or feel the light material on his body. He was wearing a one piece nightgown or maybe an oversized shirt he wasn’t sure and his shoulder length hair flied in every direction. His pale skin was flushed pink, embarrassment filled his cheeks as a breeze passed by. He might as well be naked save for the nightgown/oversized shirt.

“You’re not wearing pants are you?” he almost missed the human cat about to lift the hem of the nightgown/oversized shirt. He scrambled away from the human cat kicking the mirror onto him.

“Oh come on! Let me have a piece of dat ass” the human cat licked his lips and he suppressed the urge to stab his sword onto him as pink tinted his cheeks. This was why he couldn’t stand the human cat, other than his manner of speech could be compared to a sailor, his vulgarity made his skin crawl. It was sometimes hard to see that he was Mina’s brother.   

He strode away from that place angrily glaring at whoever gawked at him until he reached his quarters. He opened the double doors and slammed the doors angrily startling a poor Sasha who was not only blushing but terrified of the state he was in. He wanted to shout at his attendant to get out but suppressed the urge to do so, she didn’t do anything wrong and she was just doing his job.

“Clothes and armour please” he tried not to make his statement a demand as he could see how scared she was, she nodded and quietly made her way into his closet. He plopped down his bed savouring the comfort it gave him.

“I heard what happened, please don’t push yourself too much.” he could feel the weight of his armour at the foot of his bed and waited until Sasha excused himself before he would slip into his own clothes throwing the nightgown/oversized shirt out of the window.

He would calmly ask Kiel who dressed him, calmly as in probably opening the gates of the undead for the souls to torment him into giving the answer he needed.

And apologize to Sasha, that too.
