"You can call me Willi?"
"No."
"What's our fandom name?" I inquired.
"Our what?"
"Fandom name. It's when your fans put half of one person's name with the end half of the other. Apparently, there's a poll going on as to which one to go with. Willtris or Dimitriam."
"You're not serious."
"I'm being legit. It's kind of amusing seeing our fans go to war over it."
"Hmph," he replied, but he slowly began to relax. "Are you feeling okay?"
"A bit tired, but nothing crazy. I'll take my meds before I leave," I assured him.
"Hmm," he replied and there was a long silence once more.
"Hey, Dimitris?"
There was no answer.
"Dimitris?"
I decided to listen to his breathing, noticing how it had slowed and how relaxed he was.
"Didn't take him long."
Oh. Bria.
"Good morning, William."
Holy fucking Moon. Wait a minute. You're male now?
"My gender morphs with yours. Surprised?"
Very. Are you okay?
"Perfectly fine. Are you going to make way to your meeting?"
It was a good idea, but I couldn't help but remain still as I watched Dimitris sleep.
Maybe in a few more minutes.
"That's a good call,"he assured me as he lowered his head."I'll be here."
We should figure out a male name for you then.
"Maybe."
My eyes returned to Dimitris, and they softened as I realized that I was slowly getting to learn about each of their pasts. It wouldn't be all at once, and I was sure it would take even longer to earn their loyalty to learn about these endangered species titles, but I wasn't in a rush to learn about each of them.
All of us kept secrets of ourselves and the horrendous pasts we’d dealt with. Even I held many that even Onyx knew nothing about. It was only a matter of time before each layer was peeled away, and we'd all be naked with our vulnerabilities known within our circle of Forbidden Fruit, but at least we'd have one another.
And together...we were a dangerous game to play.
~WILLOW~
