Prologue
And love's light blue
Led me to you
Through all the emptiness that had become my home
Love's lies cruel
Introduced me to you
And at that moment I knew I was out of hope
She sat upon the floor of the underground royal caves. A crooked column, decorated with green moss veils, watched over her as it leaned in a slant against the wall. The coolness of the stones prickled her pale body through the black and blue flight suit, and yet her face felt like it was aflame. Today's announcement could not have been more painful for Larmina.
She pleaded for answers. With each tear she wept, her mind recalled every caress of his skilled fingers, the feel of his warm body against hers. However, he now stood beside the woman she called her aunt. Allura had asked him to be king? King of Arus? Oh, if only dear Aunt Allura knew what her fiery little niece did with that man. Alas, the said man turned her down in the end. She was a fool to think that a man such as he could ever want her. She was a child compared to him! The nightly calls she bid him…he accepted them, did he not? Accepted them with those large, tan hands, grasping for every curve of her porcelain skin. Then why..why this?
She begged for silence. Her cluttered head threatened to burst with shame and confusion, and she asked for it all to stop. What if all of this never happened? Could she pretend that it never mattered? Her body shaking with sobs, she wept into her open palms. Knees were brought to her bosom, her shivers becoming more violent.
She cried for release, and love, with a heavy heart, said, "No."
Author's Note: Hello! This is my first Voltron Force fic, but I have been enjoying the fics in this category for a long time. I've been seeing some great fics here on unlikely pairings, and felt inspired to try a different pairing as well. I love the idea of a student/teacher affair in a story, so I wanted to give Larmina/Keith a try. I don't intend for this story to be "happily ever after," but hope it's entertaining nonetheless. Please be noted that this fic is rated M for future sex scenes and language.
Thanks. :)
~Peace. Love. And pink hair dye.
