Keeper of the Sun and Moon (WIP)

He’s more of a show not tell person. From a Tumblr short posted a while ago

“I don’t know what to do anymore,” you confess, quietly, as if the louder they’re spoken the truer the words will ring.

“You don’t have to,” he says, with more tenderness than you would have thought him capable.

“Yes, I do,” you say shakily. You try to steady your breathing, to match it to his. “They’re—they’re all expecting me to—“

“Screw what they’re expecting you to do.” He says it harshly, but it’s as good as a declaration of love.

You give a pale attempt at laughter. “You know I can’t do that. They’ll never let me.”

“Say the word.”

“What?”

He speaks very clearly then, despite how quiet his tone is. “Say the word and I’ll take you away from here and you won’t have to deal with what they think.”

“They’d kill you for that.”

You can see your gaze reflected back in his dark eyes—does he recognize the love and pity both?

There’s no humor to his laugh. It rings even hollower than your own. “They’ll kill me anyway. The same way they’ve killed the rest of my family.”

Leon’s dad is distant but he tries to be a good father. He threw himself into his work when Leon’s sister and mother died to try and cope, and Leon never really forgave him for that. They both do care about each other though, even if they have difficulty communicating it.

As for MC’s mom: Roxana was never really meant to have children. She saw MC as more of a doll to play with and then put away than as a child.

From his in game description: "A guy with dark skin and a sleek leather jacket, who looks as if this is the last place he wants to be”

MC will have the chance to meet Kol’s siblings in the sequel! Their feelings depend on MC’s personality/actions, but Carina is predisposed to not like MC because of the circumstances of their meeting.
