forced proximity

No one could argue it wasn't a bit unconventional for an unmated omega to share her flat with an alpha. But Theo’s propensity for wandering into her bedroom uninvited aside, Hermione and Theo have a perfectly workable system in place. Hermione has her heats at the Ministry-run clinic. Theo sneaks off to his mate for his ruts. And their flat is blessedly sexless. Correction. They had a perfectly workable system.

IMPORTANT: Major Character Death, Violence, Underage, and Rape are NOT between the main couple!!! Underage/Rape (underage SA) is only mentioned and is in the past. This is a dark and spicy fic with a small amount of consensual rope play and possessiveness, though - so tread carefully if that is not your jam! When Gustave Daaé finds himself unable to make a payment on his enormous loan for the third month in a row, his daughter Christine is taken as collateral until the money is paid in full. Although his lender would normally send his personal assassin - known to his frightened debtors as the Phantom - to end Gustave's miserable life, he instead has the Phantom keep Christine prisoner. Christine, naturally, fears her captor, fears his terrible mask, and fears the new life she leads - but there may be a kernel of warmth within the Phantom's icy, black heart. WIP. Enjoy! Note: I am always exploring different worlds and different ideas. If I ever accidentally write anything insensitive or hurtfully inaccurate in my quest to do this exploration, please leave a comment letting me know, and I will do my best to correct it. Thank you!
