Opening Gambit 1d/1 (Charles/Erik, Charles/Shaw, omegaverse AU, warning: dubcon)

[(Anonymous)]

"Your graciousness is noted," Erik said mildly, pouring out a cup of coffee. The breakfast tray on his desk was Charles's work, he saw -- no mistaking the toast cut with military precision, the arrangement of pots and cups and a cloth napkin. Probably intended as a peace offering, or at least a sign that Charles was willing to open negotiations on their relationship.

He pretended to unfold the first of the day's newspapers, intent on ignoring the siblings. An Intelligence dossier on Charles was tucked under the pile of newspapers, securely bound with fine steel wire to ensure that neither Charles nor Mystique could tamper with it without leaving behind evidence. He cast the wire aside with a flick of his power and flipped open the brown folder. Xavier, Charles Francis.

"You're sure you're pregnant?" Raven murmured into Charles's ear, her voice pitched low and meant for Charles alone. Too bad for her that Erik's hearing was exceptionally sharp. "It's been less than a month."

"I know the signs of a successful mating," Charles whispered, his tone clinical and detached. "It's not my first pregnancy. Of course it doesn't mean that I'll successfully carry it to term."

Raven drew in a sharp breath. "What happened to your baby?"

"The child wasn't mutant."

Erik looked up. Charles's face was tranquil, his voice entirely devoid of emotion. But his fingers grasped Raven's hands tightly, the knuckles white with strain. Suddenly Erik could no longer bear to be in the same room as him, feeling himself crowded against the wall by Shaw's ghost and the reams of unspoken memories, demanding that he too remember his own.

Just before the door closed behind him, he heard Charles say, softly, "If it happens again, promise me you'll--"

Erik didn't wait to hear the rest.

Sorry I didn't follow your prompt exactly, anon. ^^

Oh, this is wonderful, smutty and hinting at so much angst and plot in the background too! Could there perhaps be more in this verse?

Lovely work.

NO, DO NOT END IT LIKE THAT!!!!
you have written a really tantalizing piece with so many loose ends and open questions that it'd be a shame to end it here.

You've said so much with so little; that being said, I could DROWN in this universe. If you ever feel like writing more in this verse, I would read it LIKE A BOSS.

No, how can it end there?! There is so much opportunity for a story where the child is mutant or not a mutant and Erik confronts his own prejudices.

I want to see whether Erik and Charles can begin a romantically, other than just a sexual relationship.

But having said that, I'm very happy with what you wrote. Outraged Raven FTW! Bookmarking, too!

omg, more more PLEASE let there be more!! Like how Shaw got Charles in the first place - those scars in the crooks of his elbows are probably from being injected with drugs, right?! o___O And - as mentioned above - the possibility of a child bringing their issues with each other into relief. And moar smut, pls pls pleeeeeease ...

Sorry for sounding so greedy: it's just that you've got something amazing going, even in such a short space!

"END"!? B-b-but, there certainly needs to be more!! Enjoyed this a lot, anon, and I want to see their relationship develop further. There's so much so much potential for it to be a longer story.
