BOUND BENEATH THE LAW (OMEGAVERSE)

[OMEGAVERSE] [Mature Content] [SPG]

Fairo has spent years trying to silence the echoes of his past-the screams, the smoke, the cold eyes that taught him fear before he even knew how to speak it. Every night, the past finds him in his sleep, dragging him back to a time when love was a weapon and safety was an illusion. The man behind it all he doesn't even know , like-a ghost that never truly died, only changed form.

One night, Fairo wakes from yet another nightmare, drenched in sweat, breath stolen by terror. But he isn't alone. Small arms wrap around him. Rafaelle, his wide-eyed son, climbs into bed, wiping his father's tears with quiet determination.

"I'll protect you, Papa," he whispers. "From the bad man in your dreams. I'll find Daddy, and he will protect both of us from the monster in your dreams."

But Fairo's heart shatters at those words.

Because the man Rafaelle speaks of-the one he longs to find and save-is the very nightmare that Fairo is trying to protect him from. The man who taught Fairo pain, not love. Chaos, not safety. And now, his son's innocence is reaching for the monster Fairo barely escaped.

He swore long ago that the cycle would end with him. That whatever it took, his son would never feel the kind of fear he once did. Not from the world-and not from the man who gave Fairo distractions and unending fear.

Now, more than ever, Fairo holds onto one truth: he will protect Rafaelle. Not just from strangers. But from the father Rafa was dreaming to have. The father he'll never let near his child. Even if that means reliving the past to bury it once and for all.
