Summary
I’ve wanted Bruce Wayne for as long as I can remember. But he’s not mine, and never will be. The thing about loving someone you can’t have is that you get very good at calling the distance a choice. You tell yourself it’s protection. You don’t look too closely at what it’s costing you.
Eight years of that kind of restraint leaves marks. The kind that settles into your bones while you build a life around absence and call it control. Then he makes me an offer I shouldn’t accept. Watch his back. Guard his secrets. Stand closer to him than anyone else in Gotham ever will. Close enough to feel the weight of his attention. Close enough to forget why I said we can’t in the first place. I can handle it. I know where the lines are. I’ve proven I won’t cross them. What I don’t account for is how much harder it is to hold those lines when he’s the one crossing them.
The armor protects his body.
It’s everything underneath that’s going to ruin me.Series
