"I'm going to have to punish you, Jasper." "P-punish me?" "You have to learn." Then there was silence. Pain. _______________________ Jasper was a socially awkward college student who enjoyed having someone in control. He didn't understand why, but he just ignored it and pretended it didn't matter. With his best friend, Avalon, it was easy for him as she loved control and it was a natural response for her to take control. When a new teacher begins at their university, Ava begins to push Jasper from his comfort zone towards the young, handsome teacher, Mr. Faber. When Jasper's awkwardness catches Mr. Faber's attention, he will do anything to make him his. Mr. Faber was a twenty-seven year old art professor at the University of West Brooke. But he has a secret. He was also a dominant without his own submissive. When an awkward college student catches his attention, he'll do anything to make him his pet. What happens when you mix reason and art together?

What are we without flesh and blood? Are we nothing but a beating heart in a ribcage, a marching soul inevitably leading to our demise? Or are we here as a test of loyalty to our God, a God we do not know but must trust? And without this trust, we will be punished indefinitely for questioning his divinity. And what is a sheep without his shepherd? Without God, are we nothing but sheep led astray? How will we be guided to the light without a shepherd on earth? Should we trust our shepherd to tell us the truth? Or will we be covered in the blood of the lamb? A shepherd with blood on his hands could infect his flock with poison. And with this poison, he has control. And to Luke, this poison is all he knows. His seventeen years of life have been devoted to nothing else but God. He wakes up, goes to school or church, and sleeps; rinse and repeat. There is no place or time for anything else in his life, such as television, going out with friends, or discovering new hobbies. His father, Pastor Ivy, ensures this. His life purpose will be to serve the Lord and nothing else. A purpose that Luke believes is the right way. What else would there be to life? He hadn't questioned this until he met Gabriel, a man who was the complete opposite of him. A man who was strong in his sense of self. A man who didn't bow to anyone or anything and stood firm in his beliefs in The Church of Satan. A man who Luke feared. But also a man who felt like home to him.

AU: When the lights fade in stardom, a star will fall to the ground. But it will be picked up and enveloped by the darkness, showing that there's more pleasure to be found in the shadows than in the spotlight. Seb/Ciel
