Once Kersen and his progeny were out of his club, Eric finally flew off to Alcuin's home. He hadn't been here since that first night he had met the boy, and now he stood outside his door, wondering what the fuck he was even doing here. Caring about a human, or close enough.

Still, he rang the bell, standing on the doorstep and listening for Alcuin's approach through the door.

"Even my short life would be unbearable without books," said Alcuin, clearly pleased with his answer. He always lit up when he talked about books.

"Hannibal did the drawing of Paris," he said. "I do miss it sometimes."

"Sometimes," Alcuin said. "Was there for a short trip earlier this year. Even went back to the rather bad part of town where I grew up. But everything is different now, of course. I imagine you have that experience a lot."

"Oh actually... here in London, but I don't remember it. My father died shortly after I was born, and my mother moved back to Paris. She... was a prostitute, and I grew up around a brothel, for the most part. Until I was twelve. She died, and that is when Anafiel took me in and brought me here. He was my father's best friend."

Alcuin hesitated. Not because he didn't think it was obvious, but because for whatever reason he assumed that Eric knew about his past. It seemed like everyone else did.

"Yes," he said. "Later. I was very much in love with him. We were together for a short while, before his death." He glanced at the portrait unconsciously, and then quickly away.

"I - well. Yes. I miss him very much."

Alcuin hated how he felt his pulse quicken a bit just from Eric moving closer to him.

"Yes," said Alcuin softly, wondering where he was going with this.

Alcuin leaned into the touch. "Yes," he said. "But I don't think I will love anyone again quite the way that I loved him." He loved Hannibal, yes, but it was not the same.

Alcuin loved the way that Eric kissed him. Especially after what had happened tonight, again, it made him feel safe. Made him feel like he belong to... with... Eric. It made him want to let go, give in.

And he was grateful, too, that Eric had made the first move, that he hadn't had to hint or seduce. Because he wanted him, and on a purely physical level that he hadn't wanted anyone in a long time. He still had dreams about him.

He wrapped his arms loosely around Eric's neck and kissed him back, his body surrendering and pliant against him.

Alcuin was practically a puddle by the time the kiss broke. "That... that was the next stop on the tour," he said breathlessly, and dropped his arms so that he could take one of Eric's hands and lead him across the hall.

Alcuin's bedroom was decorated in white and light gray, with a large bay window through which sunlight streamed beautifully during the day. There were pops of color on the wall in artwork that was more modern than what adorned the rest of the flat. And his bed was made of elaborate white wrought iron, covered in white blankets and pillows.

Since it was still a tour, he offered, "And ah, this is my bedroom," and swept a hand helpfully. The window was open partway since it was a nice night, and gauzy curtains fluttered.

"Very," Alcuin said. "I mean, as far as I know, I've never - with someone as strong as you." He looked over to the bed, then back to Eric. "I like that I can hold onto the iron bars." He'd been bound to them once or twice, too.

Alcuin gasped a little and immediately did as Eric implied, wrapping his legs tightly around his waist and kissing him urgently. He was hard already, and his trousers were a bit tight so he was eager to get out of them.

Alcuin moaned softly when Eric pressed him against the bed. "Eric... god, I've thought of you. I still dream of you."

"They haven't changed much," Alcuin admitted softly, since he had told Eric about them that first time they'd been together. He gasped in pleasure when Eric scraped his fangs against his chest. "Here mostly, you're in my bed as if waking me. Sometimes you're rough. Sometimes it's more a feeling, an image. I wake up hard and aching, with an image of your body and of white sheets covered with drops of blood."
