it began with a photo— ' easy, ' she'd thought. EASY. then a name— not anyone she'd heard of. so what? the people who involve themselves with this kind of business typically know the risk. they look, talk, act a certain way ; men with too much power who have too many corpses behind too many doors. but not this one. not connor. for a while, harlow let herself forget. maybe silas wouldn't follow up, maybe this wouldn't get worse. she could only hope.

𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐫 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝𝐧'𝐭 𝐛𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐯𝐨𝐥𝐯𝐞𝐝 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐡𝐞𝐫.

it'd been weeks now, each passing day a testimony to the guilt rooted in her throat. today she forgets. today she plops down beside him on the sofa, gaze light with mirth as she tucks her arm around his. ❝ buy me pizza tonight? ❞ lips purse in something close to a puppy face. ❝ i'm hungry . . . if you want, i'll even pay for dessert . ❞

so i'll probably add more about this in harlow's info, but her relationship with her pseudo father is really important to who she is— she has so much cognitive dissonance about their relationship to the point that he has a lot of control over her self-esteem. when they argue or she disappoints him, he tends to use that against her. deep down, she's stuck in this world where she's some ragged street kid who he took in as an act of pity. no matter how much she changes to match his idea of class, she struggles with feeling like it's enough. in the end, she has to come to terms with the reality that she was hurt by him. when she eventually realizes that she was kidnapped by her mom's murderer, that's. not great.

#in my more detailed canon #she was “adopted” to eventually be a good wife for his son #bc he saw his son as weak and faint-hearted #and harlow's trauma response looked different #silas liked her rough edges #he just thought he could reshape her #which didn't really work #( ramblings tbt . )

𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒅𝒓𝒊𝒏𝒌 makes it there before its sender. harlow follows quickly, glitter - glazed eyes scanning through the sea of movement in the club— and the way she slips in the seat beside teodozja is natural. the smile she swallows back with her own drink is only slightly less so.

maybe she would've actually been pleased to party, if she'd been able to come on her own accord. the issue, regretfully, is that someone 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 went missing last week and she owes his wife a favor. strangely enough, a body hasn't been found. no leads so far . . . well, unless she counts the best contractor in town.

❝ on me, ❞ she croons, nodding at the glass on the counter. ❝ vodka soda. looked like you needed it— long week ? ❞

“ i’m not afraid to love. loving is the easy part. it’s the after that always scares me. the idea of being left with all that love and nowhere to put it. ”

& 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆'𝒔 𝒂𝒍𝒘𝒂𝒚𝒔 𝒂𝒏 𝒂𝒇𝒕𝒆𝒓, 𝒓𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕? his words ring uneasily beneath the caging of her ribs— a melancholy to mirror the grievance of his words. as she watches him, it sinks into her skin like flame. he deserves so much better. ❝ i think might go crazy, ❞ she finally breathes, shifting to release the tension of her frown. ❝ being left like that, i mean. i couldn't really imagine that. ❞ yes, you can.

her expression melts as she meets his eyes again. [ . . . ] so much better. with a swift and dismissive shrug, harlow tucks a piece of his hair behind his ear. ❝ i guess you just have to find the love that lasts forever . . . but that shouldn't be too hard for a charming thing like you . ❞

❝ i see people for who they really are. i see you, too. ❞

𝒔𝒐 𝒔𝒐𝒇𝒕. the sentiment is enough to warm her cheeks and weigh her palms with the desire to take his face and squeeze , ❝ that's real sweet. ❞ if anyone were to see the good in others, it would be him . . . maybe to a fault. she offers a soft smile, gently patting his cheek.

not many people look at her, the real person, and like what they see. the thought that he does— that he could— fills her chest with a sticky, honeyed kind of ache. hope ; a dream that maybe he really does. against her better judgment, harlow leans close to murmur , ❝ i'm a lot worse than i look, y'know. for all you know, i could be a murderer. or maybe i just get off on fooling sweethearts like you. ❞

#juliankayed #helloooo thank u for sending this !!#you hit us right in the uwus #i want you to know that harlow's having cuteness aggression #she's gonna shake him if he keeps it up #( answered . )
