Hey guys! Sorry this next chapter took so long to get out! Been having a bit of a rough time. Long story short, my mom is not very nice to me, and often makes me feel useless and worthless. Nothing i say ever changes anything, and it is always my fault. Soo it was kind of hard to work on the story when i was in a depressed mood, but i tried. I am happy with how it turned out and it is a lot longer than i planned, so i hope you like!
Lance had grown up knowing one rule extremely well from his parents; Always protect family. Family is everything.
Lance had lived most of his life abiding by that rule very well, loving and caring for his family members. As he grew older, he found himself breaking that rule over and over again.
First by leaving and hurting his Voltron family by leaving with Lotor, and then by slapping his sister for the first time over her trying to break up Lotor and him. He had never once laid a hand on any of his family members or friends, granted though, the bitch had it coming. Lotor was his family now, and always will be.
Veronica and Lance and ended up in an all out brawl on the kitchen floor before family members in the living room had stepped in and broke them apart. Veronica was spitting out profanity, and Lance seemed lifeless with his expressionless face. He had been upset and angry many times, but this was the first time he was in absolute seething rage. Veronica had tried to take what belonged to HIM, and tried to separate them so she could have a meaningless fling before Lance and Lotor returned to space; whether together or apart. She didn't care, and Lance would not allow someone, even a family member, to break apart someone he considered family.
Lance and Lotor were now in the guest bedroom, the door closed and locked, and the screeching sounds of the disgusting siren Veronica still ringing in Lance's ears. Lotor had remained silent the whole time, offering his hand as comfort by running it in circles gently on Lance's back. Lance had calmed down a bit since entering the room, but the scene of Veronica nearly naked with Lotor made him pound a fist into the bed they were sitting on as he gritted his teeth hard.
Lance winced in pain as he felt his teeth pierce into his gums and the copper taste of blood slowly filled his mouth. He opened his mouth and reached towards his teeth, surprised to find his canine teeth rather sharp. "Wha-," he gaped in surprise, the anger disappearing instantly.
"When galra men and women get angry, our canine teeth tend to sharpen out and give us a more aggressive and alpha like look. I guess you have gained many more traits from my blood then I expected." Lotor spoke softly, never stopping his hand from its circular soothing motion.
Lance sighed, shifting himself so he could lay against Lotor's chest. The two had gotten dressed in loose t-shirts and shorts once arriving back to their rooms and out of the cold. Lotor shifted his legs out of the way to pull him closer as Lance snuggled in his arms. The light from the glowing moon illuminated their room as Lance and Lotor cuddled.
"I've never hit anyone before, not family, friends, bullies, no one... I.. I can't believe I hit my sister..." Lance looked down at his hands, the light from the moon illuminating every inch of his skin. Lotor could sense Lance's regret, and slide his hands into both of Lance's; squeezing tightly. "The blood flowing through you is something you will have to get use to Lance. Your body is changing and even though you told me it is fine, I still feel a large amount of regret for what my blood has done to you."
Lance shook his head as Lotor spook, moving one of their joined hands up to his lips to kiss the back of Lotor's hand.
"When a galran gets angry, if they cannot control and contain their anger, it will boil over immensely. And often when we reach the point of no return, we cannot control ourselves from doing or saying something that we may or may not mean at that time."
Lance nodded in understanding, but bit his lip lightly as he responded.
"I didn't mean to intend to get in an all out brawl with her, I don't even think I would normally have slapped her, I just.. when I saw her face, I got so mad that I saw red... I-"
"Lance relax... let's us sleep for tonight, we can sit down with your family and Veronica, explain the situation, and apologize."
Lance nodded, turning to look up at Lotor, who smiled down at Lance as the moon lit up his pale purple face.
The two shared a soft kiss, before slipping under the covers. Lance had snuggled into Lotor, laying on one of his arms while Lotor's other arm wrapped around Lance's waist. The cool night sea breeze slipped into the room and cooled the duo as they slipped into a comfortable sleep.
The loud chirping and cawing of seagulls woke up Lance very early in the morning. Lance had always been a light sleeper, and Lotor was the complete opposite. After the stressful day they had just hours before, it was no surprise he was still fast asleep with his face buried in his pillow.
Lance sat up, stretching his arms after being embraced by Lotor for most of the night. He turned, smiling down at the mass of gorgeous white hair splayed out all over the pillow. Lance ran his hand softly through Lotor's hair as his other hand lightly touched his earring that Lotor gave him. Despite the fight between his sister, Lance felt giddy at the thought of being married to Lotor; it was more than he could ever dream.
A small smile played at Lance's lips as he slowly slipped out of the bed and went towards the small bathroom connected to their room. He turned to look at himself in the mirror, and still felt his heart jump at the sight of his new look. 'It will take a while to get use to this.' Lance thought, looking at all the changes Lotor's blood had done to him. Of course he not upset about it; Lotor had saved his life.
Lance slipped out of his clothes to take a shower, after the situation with Lance's sister, the two were too exhausted to take a shower, and Lance shivered as he scrubbed at the crusty cum along his legs and ass.
As he washed his body, Lance ran a hand along his belly before stilling it. Ever since he was little, he knew he would want lots of kids with the woman he would marry. He had always been a part of a big family, so it would make him so happy to have a big family of his own. He hadn't considered giving birth to children though; at least until he met with Lotor. The thought had slipped into his mind a few times, but he thought nothing of it until his innermost thoughts were revealed to him by Narti.
The thought of having little gorgeous babies with Lotor had him giddy with excitement, but also with terror. He didn't know how he would handle a pregnancy; male bodies normally couldn't contain babies to begin with, and he knew he could handle pain, but he wasn't sure he could handle that much pain. Women even have a higher tolerance to pain, and it gets higher when they give birth, Lance didn't think he would be able to get up to their level, and he was worried the pain would be too much on his body.
Lance frowned, shoving the thought aside and trying to focus on the positive. Everything would be fine as long as Lotor was with him. Nothing could go wrong, Lance assured himself as he stood underneath the warm rush of water.
He hummed to himself softly as he ran shampoo through his greasy hair. He played with the tuft of hair in the center of his head that was a soft white, slipping his fingers through them and smiling. He was more than OK with these changes. As Lance was finishing up his hair, he heard the shower curtain behind him rustle and a strong pair of purple arms embraced him. Lance's wet body collided with smooth skin as he titled his head up and smiled at his lover. Lotor looked tired, his eyes half-lidded and a yawn ripping out of his mouth.
"Too... early.." Lotor groaned, resting his head on Lance's shoulder as his hair cascaded along Lance's chest. Lance chuckled, moving one arm up to pat Lotor's head softly. "There, there my poor prince, a warm shower will wake you right up."
Lotor grumbled, rubbing his head along Lance's shoulder and neck and making the smaller boy smile. "A shower won't wake me up... but you can."
Lance raised an eyebrows, shifting in Lotor's arms to face him. "Oh really? What can I do for you?"
Lotor raised his head, looking up thoughtfully, before looking down at Lance and puckering his lips in a silly manner. "A kiss."
Lance laughed, slipping his arms around Lotor's neck as he leaned up to press a gentle kiss to his lips. "Rise and shine my sleeping beauty." Lance whispered against his lips.
Lotor growled lightly, mumbling a quick "Not enough," before capturing Lance's lips in a hot and passionate kiss as he pulled the boy tightly against him. Water slipped around and between their bodies as Lotor nipped and sucked on Lance's lower lip.
Lance let out a soft moan between their lips and felt himself growing aroused. Suddenly a loud couple knocks hit their bedroom door. "Lance? Lotor? Your mother and I want to talk to you two." Diego's voice called out as the two froze in the shower.
Lance cleared his throat, embarrassed as he called back out. "O-ok dad! We will be out in a sec."
Diego mumbled something in reply, before his receding footsteps were heard. The two looked at each other before laughing. "It is dreadfully hard to get alone time with you." Lotor spoke, running a hand along Lance's cheek and into his hair. Lance smiled up at him, leaning up to peck a kiss to Lotor's lips. "Well you did want to meet my parents on this vacation, so it is kind of your fault." Lance poked Lotor's chest with a pointed look.
Lotor raised an eyebrow, a grin playing at his lips. "Oh really? My fault? I will have to get you back for putting the blame on me, my little kitten."
Lance laughed as Lotor leaned forward to tickle his sides as a playful growl rumbled out of his chest. The two burst into a fit of childlike laughter before finally getting themselves both cleaned and dressed.
Lotor had his hair pulled into a tight bun, too tired and in a hurry to bother drying it as they both exited their room and made their way downstairs. Lance could imagine that his sister already told their parents what happened, and he was pretty damn sure she didn't explain the full story. He could only hope his parents wouldn't choose sides without hearing what he had to say.
It was surprising to find the giant house his parent's lived in to be mostly vacant, aside from his parents and Veronica. Most of the time the house was bustling with other relatives and screaming children running around.
Diego and Angelica were sitting on one of the brown couches in the room and Veronica was lounging in a comfy chair. She turned and gave Lotor and Lance a nasty look as they came down the steps. Lance could feel his blood boil, the feeling of wanting to hit her slipped into his thoughts, but Lotor slipped one of his hands into Lance's and squeezed. The comforting feeling made Lance's anger disappear in a flash, and the two made their way down the stairs and placing themselves on another couch across both Lance's parents and Veronica.
After a moment of silence, Angelica speaks up. "So apparently there was a bit of a fight last night. Your father and I didn't hear it, but a couple of your relatives told us what happened, as well as Veronica filling us in. So I would like to hear your story."
Lance glanced at his sister, still with her smug look. "Did she make it sound like Lotor and I were to blame?" Lance spit out. Diego glanced between the duo but kept his mouth shut. Angelica pursed her lips. "It doesn't matter what she said now, tell me your side."
Lance exhaled deeply, before explaining what really happened. He was sure his sister lied, that much was obvious. Lotor chimed in a few times but for the most part let Lance explain. After Lance got to the last part of him fighting Veronica on the kitchen floor, he finally stopped. He even included the part where Lotor proposed, though left out the heated passion moments before it.
Diego's eyes had narrowed slightly when Lance mentioned the proposal and eyed the earring dangerously. Lotor realized he should have looked more into the customs of proposals and marriages for humans carefully. Galra men and women would just take what they wanted, they would propose without thinking of the family members regarding their lover. He could sense that Diego wasn't happy that he didn't perhaps ask permission from him first, but Lotor kept his mouth shut on the matter.
"I see... this is different from what Veronica told us..." Angelica said thoughtfully. Lance's anger sparked, and he stood up swiftly, glaring at Veronica who was acting uninterested in her chair.
"Because she is lying! She forced herself on Lotor. Out in the open too, so I bet she was hoping I would see and leave him!"
Veronica glanced over at him and placed her hand on her chest. "Brother! I would never!"
Lance snarled, taking a step forward, but Lotor grabbed his hand, pulling him back down. "Lance, calm down please." Lotor said in a hushed tone. Lance whipped his head around, angry that Lotor wasn't upset about this. Lance's eyes widened slightly, Lotor may not show that he was upset, but he definitely was. He had a firm grip on Lance's hand, and his eyes twitched and sparked with a reddish color. He was furious, but was doing his best to remain composed.
He released Lance's hand and stood up slowly. "With all due respect, Diego and Angelica, you may not know me very well, but I would never in my entire life, hurt Lance, whether physically or emotionally. Veronica had shown interested in me the moment I had arrived, and even though I had countlessly made it clear I was with Lance, she laid her hands on me and it made the situation worse when we were caught in a inappropriate position."
He paused to gauge the family's reactions, and when everyone, even Veronica, stayed quiet, he continued. "I love Lance more than anything, more than even my position as a Prince of the Galra. I would give up everything to be with him, but I would never lay a hand on anyone else, especially a family member. I do not expect you to trust me, for I am still but a stranger being welcomed into your home, but know that our story holds more truth than Veronica's."
Veronica scoffed. "You calling me a liar?"
Lotor met her eyes. "Yes." He spoke without a beat. Veronica glared at him, and stood up. "Mom, Dad, you don't seriously believe their story do you? Lance comes home after years and brings a perverted alien creep home that nearly tries to rape me! Then I am making myself some food and Lance comes out of no where and starts hitting me! These two are out of control!"
Lance stood up again, angry but Lotor put his arm out to stop Lance, shaking his head lightly. Diego stood up while Angelica folded her hands together. "It is true that we do not know you Lotor, but we do know Lance. And we also know you, Veronica." Diego spoke, turning to look at his daughter. "And we also know that you have a tendency to lie when you are very clearly in the wrong. Lance has been nothing but an amazing son and brother to everyone, and he is more than trustful. More than you dear."
Veronica looked offended, but very pissed off. "I am not a liar! You are going to defend someone who tried to rape me? And someone who hurt me?" Lance flared up at the word rape, he was beyond pissed.
Diego started to open his mouth, when the sliding glass doors to the backyard slid open and a young man with dusty brown hair and a tan body walked in. He couldn't have been older than Lance, and had piercing violet eyes.
"Sorry..." He yawned, covering his mouth. "I was going to come by sooner, but I slept in."
Lotor turned to glance at Lance, who mouthed back to him 'My cousin'.
"Why hello Dylan darling. I hope you had a good rest, but we are kind of in the middle of a personal family business, so if you could come back la-" Angelica started, but Dylan put his hand up. "Sorry Angelica, but I came over for that reason."
the group stayed quiet while Dylan looked everyone over, before landing his eyes on Lotor. "See, I was coming down to the beach to relax myself, and I overheard Lotor and Veronica talking. I grew curious, and decided to hide by and watch. You know your daughter well, but she hides a lot from you guys."
Veronica glared at Dylan, hissing at him. "Dylan, you keep your mouth shut!" Dylan rolled his eyes. "Oh save it, I am done defending your ass. You do a lot of messed up shit, but trying to take someone's man, that goes over the line."
He turned to look over at Lance's parents as he continued. "I assume both sides told their stories, and I am here to say that without a doubt, Lance and.. uh.. Sorry bro, forgot your name, but Lance and his lover are in the right. Veronica forced herself on him, and he continued to tell her to stop and refused her advances. I would hate to see such an adorable couple break up over a stupid girl." Dylan concluded, grinning at Lance and Lotor. Lotor smiled back and Lance felt all the tension in his body disappear. Veronica was up and screeching angrily at Dylan, but he payed her no mind.
"Well then, since there was a witness, as painful as it is to choose sides with our own children, we have to side with Lance and Lotor on this one." Angelica said in a soft voice, standing up. Veronica twisted around, her eyes wild and her hair a mess around her face. "MOM? How could you?"
"What about you dear? Apparently you are hiding a lot from us, mind telling us what all of it is?" She asked, crossing her arms. Veronica looked angrily around the group, before her shoulders dropped and she admitted defeat.
She just shook her head, storming out of the living room and out the door.
Diego sighed, running a hand through his hair. "that girl of ours was always a trouble maker, as stubborn as a pig. But to go as far as to claim someone was raping her, that is going way too far." Dylan and the others agreed. Diego turned towards Lotor and walked over, placing a heavy hand on his shoulder. "I apologize for interrogating both of you, I trust you Lance, and anyone you care about is OK in my book. Take good care of him Lotor." Diego smiled up at Lotor, and Lotor smiled back. "I will sir."
While Diego and Angelica talked quietly, Dylan walked over to the duo and grinned. "Sorry for stepping in, but I knew if I didn't it may get worse." Lance smiled, tugging his cousin into a big bear hug. "I can't thank you enough, I can't believe she would go this far, and I don't even know what for."
Dylan leaned back, wrapping a loose arm around Lance's shoulder and bringing him closer. "Maybe she was jealous of your awesome relationship?" Lance laughed. "Yeah maybe."
Dylan turned and smiled up at Lotor. "You sure got yourself quite the man Lance, he is a keeper for sure."
Lotor smiled and bowed his head slightly. "I cannot express my gratitude enough for your help Dylan, it means very much to me."
Dylan looked embarrassed, running a hand through his hair. "It was nothing, just standing up for my younger cousin here. Gotta keep an eye on him after all! He is kind of a push-over." Dylan teased, Lance laughed, shoving at Dylan as the three continued to chat.
Before long Lance's belly was rumbling for food, and Lotor was more than willing to take him out of the house and somewhere nice to eat, so Dylan bid them farewell. As Lotor and Lance made their way to the sidewalk along side of the road, they heard their names being called out in the distant, and turned around to see a waving Dylan.
"Take good care of him! You hurt him and I am coming after you!" Dylan yelled before running away to one of the smaller houses.
The two walked along the sidewalk near the beach, hands intertwined. "I will treasure you forever." Lotor said, pressing a soft kiss to the soft mound of hair on Lance's head. And Lance squeezed his hand happily. "And I will do the same."
