NSFW
*****
Khansaar, 2010
There it was. Laid out in front of them like an animal's carcass.
Love had never been easy for Varadha. Love had always been an enemy, a weakness and every other attribute that tainted that word. It ate away at him like a disease and spit him back out like phlegm. When love did not want him, it made him its weapon.
So he looked at its corpse. Beaten, ragged and dirty, as it was meant to be. He was the one who had ended its life, so why was he feeling like a gaping hole had been made in his heart?
And why did love look so alive in his eyes? Why did it writhe and dance and reach out and pull Varadha towards him? Why did it seem to want to live when he kept killing it? Why couldn't it just go?
"Varadha," said Deva.
"Go." A piece of his heart turned to stone as he said that.
"Varadha, listen-"
"Get out. If I ever see your face again, I'll put your head on a spike and hang it at Khansaar's doors. Go."
Well, it had achieved what he wanted it to. That writhing love stopped its dance in Deva's eyes. In its remains, all that was left was a rising anger.
Good. At least he would go out of this world in the wake of that love. No death would be more respectable.
But Varadha knew Deva more than he knew himself. That anger, so familiar to him, cooled down, replaced with another emotion
It wracked him to his bones.
Don't leave me, he wanted to say. I love you. Love me back. Please.
But he stood his ground.
Deva turned around, and walked out of the room. The entire place descended into silence. No one spoke a word. The sun set.
Varadharaja Mannar became King.

Khansaar, 2017
The corpses that lined the border of Khansaar reminded him of another time, when burning bodies were all you could see around you.
He could also see Deva on top of the cliff.
Love still felt like a punch to the gut.
How untamed could something be? How could it still be alive, with all of its guts spilling out? How could it be alive and fight to burn and writhe, when blobs of its blood had fallen for 32 years?
And why did it need to haunt him of all people?
Deva was just as beautiful as he had been all those years ago. Even as Varadha prepared for a proper death this time, he couldn't help but look at the one man who made him feel like he was at the heights of pleasure and in the depths of despair at the same time. How could he not when Deva looked at him with storms in his eyes?
Varadha wanted to ease them. Ease all of his worries away. He didn't care about that Aadhya girl, he didn't care about anything. He just wanted Deva to look at him with those eyes of his. He wanted to drown in them, lose himself in them and then kiss the man's head, caress away the lines on his forehead and love him like he had always wanted to.
"Get me his head," he said instead.
All the people at his disposal marched out, perhaps hoping for an intense battle.
Well, he had just sent a hundred men to their deaths. He made a silent prayer to Katteramma to forgive him.
It didn't take long for the men to be disposed of. Deva was quite singularly focused on murdering anyone involved.
As Varadha sat in his throne, the doors burst open, and in bulldozed the man.
He couldn't help it - he never could when Deva was near - he noticed Deva's minute details without even having to try. It was like a built in mechanism that couldn't be removed. A little scar there, a bit of rugged scruff here, a small mole that had been the highlight of his days during their childhood.
"Varadharaja Mannar," began Deva.
Varadha shook himself out of his little trance. What use was it being in cahoots with a dead love?
He lifted his hand to stop Deva - no, Devaratha - from continuing.
He looked at everyone else in the court. "Get out. All of you. This is between me and - Devaratha." His jaw clenched.
Everyone filed out in a few minutes. The court room, which had been filled with clamouring noise earlier, fell quiet.
Neither of them said a word. Both of them knew what the other was thinking.
Deva put his weapon down. He raised his arms up in surrender and walked towards the throne.
Varadha didn't move an inch.
His footsteps echoed in the courtroom as he made his way to the throne. Varadha's heart constricted just a little bit more with each step.
Deva stopped at the foot of the stairs. His gaze was laser focused on Varadha.
"Devaratha," Varadha said.
"Where is Aadhya?" asked Deva.
"It doesn't matter. She never did, did she?" Varadha smirked. "It was never about her."
"Then give her back." Deva's face contorted, fury radiating off him in waves.
Varadha let out a chuckle, humourless and dry. That fury would go back in again, simmer in his insides. Old habits.
"Come on, Deva. We both know how these things work. I can't give her to you, unless you give me something in return," he said instead.
Deva's fist clenched. "What do you want?"
"You."
Deva's expression went from fury, to confusion, to - something else, and then finally seemed to settle on a decision. Deva raised an eyebrow at him, as if he was asking something.
Varadha watched him squirm. In a twisted way, he felt a bit of triumph. He bet Aadhya couldn't decipher all these minute expressions.
"Come," he said.
Deva took a few cautious steps, wariness shrouding his form. Varadha, as usual, just watched.
One step. Two. Three. Four. Five.
The man was right in front of him. He could smell his sweat and the remnants of gunpowder. He could feel the heat radiating off of Deva.
Varadha's breath caught.
Deva seemed to register that, and a small smirk made its way onto his face. And Varadha, as usual, traced every movement that Deva made.
Eventually, their eyes met. They had to. It was inevitable for them to look at each other like the other held the answers to the universe. It was inevitable that they would search for the answers to their unspoken questions in each other's eyes.
Deva's eyes dissolved into something soft. Varadha - he was helpless. Even if he wanted the harshness of vengeance or past anger to take over his heart, Deva could simply look at him and he would forget everything.
That's just how it was.
God, he was gone. He was delusional. That was the only way he could explain - whatever this was.
How badly messed up it was that he was imagining Deva getting closer to his face, as if he was about t-
What the fuck.
***
Deva was kissing him.
Lips were pressed against his own, bearing down on them.
And Varadha's lips moved. He didn't remember it clearly. Perhaps it was the little bit of whiskey he'd had in the morning.
But Varadha moved. He put his arms around Deva's neck and kissed him back. He bit Deva's lips, opened him him up.
The sensation of his tongue felt sent a jolt through Varadha and heat pooled low in his groin.
He had longed for this. He had longed for it like a parched man in a desert for water. He wanted to be engulfed in Deva's scent, completely surrounded by it. He wanted to kiss this man to pieces, kiss him into submission.
He pulled Deva onto his lap, not leaving his mouth for even a second. The gasp that escaped his mouth just riled Varadha up.
He wanted the man to whimper. To moan and gasp and writhe against him. He wanted him to lose his control and give in.
Well, only one way to do it.
Varadha parted from his mouth. He pulled Deva by the ass and thrusted up, grunting as he did so. Deva gasped.
"Y-you fucking bastard," the other man gritted out.
"Mhm?" Varadha hummed as he rubbed their crotches once again.
Deva just kissed him again, forcefully parting his lips and biting down on them.
Varadha moaned, the pain mixing with the pleasure and making everything hazy around him.
That distinct smell of Deva clouded every other sense of his, and the only thing he could feel was the touch of his lips, the heat of his breath and that heady, heady pleasure.
Deva separated them, and a string if spit extended between their lips. Deva was breathing hard, and Varadha wasn't any better.
Deva's eyes were dilated, and the look in his eyes spoke more than he could ever express with words. Varadha's eyes trailed down to his lips, so plump and kissed. He caressed them and felt Deva suck in a breath.
God, he was beautiful.
He pressed a haphazard kiss to Deva's lips. He didn't move away after letting go. Instead, he let their temples touch.
It was a simple act, a simple touch. Yet it felt like he had finally come home, and had been laid to rest. The hand that had been on Deva's lips, now became intertwined with his hair, pulling them closer to each other. Deva sighed.
He didn't know for how long they stayed like that. Everything felt a bit hazy, and his cock wasn't in the mood for calming down either, throbbing as it was.
Deva seemed to have regained some of his senses. He leaned forward and kissed Varadha's temple. Then his eyes. Then the tip of his nose. The apples of his cheeks. The space between his upper lip and his nose. He peppered kisses across his jaw.
He reached Varadha's neck, and that is where he chose to stop. Varadha looked to the side, and caught Deva staring at him. A small smile came into Varadha's vision.
Oh.
Oh.
Next thing he knew, Deva was kissing his neck, licking it, biting it, loving it. All he could hear around him were little gasps and moans. Deva was grunting as he played with the sensitive skin on Varadha's neck.
Varadha ground against Deva, craving that sweet release. He kept thrusting and rubbing, Deva's erection an acute reminder of his arousal. He wanted this just as much as Varadha did. A little bloom of possessiveness occurred in his heart.
His hand, which had been around Deva's neck, now made its way to his crotch. He palmed the man's erection.
Deva bucked up against his hand, and the moan that came out of his mouth went straight to Varadha's cock. He pressed down on Deva further, bringing out more of those.
Not once did Deva let go of his neck. At one point, he did something with his tongue that almost made Varadha come in his fucking lungi.
He pulled him away from his neck. Deva looked dazed and was about to dive back in, but Varadha pulled at the man's hair. Deva let out a moan.
He looked so fucked out. They hadn't even put each other's cocks inside each other. Something warmed in Varadha's heart at that.
Deva got up. Varadha stopped himself from whining at the loss.
Deva kneeled in front of him.
"What-"
"Shh. Let me do my thing." He placed a finger on Varadha's lips.
This is probably the last time I'll love you went unsaid, but they both understood it.
He took away his hands to work on Varadha's lungi. He untied it, and looked him in the eyes while doing it. Varadha didn't shy away.
Deva looked down at Varadha's twitching cock, the thin cloth of the boxers the only thing separating it from him. He licked his lips.
Varadha palmed his cock through his boxers, little moans escaping his throat.
Deva looked mesmerised by it all. It made Varadha feel a certain type of way.
He placed a hand on Varadha's. They moved together, touching where the other didn't, rubbing where the other didn't, caressing where the other didn't.
"Don't look at me," Varadha breathed in between gasps.
"Where else will I look?" Deva murmured.
Varadha didn't know what to say to that, so he concentrated on Deva.
Deva pulled down his boxers, and Varadha's cock sprang up. He hissed at the sudden sensation of cold wind.
His - whatever - seemed to notice and came to his aid.
"It's aroused," said Deva.
"Shut the fuck up and suck it," replied Varadha.
And Deva did just that.

Aftermath
"Did you just have sex with him?" asked Aadhya, her eyebrows shooting up to her hairline. She had the most incredulous expression on her face.
Deva, to save his ass and reputation, did not reply.
"You did," she said in disbelief. "Oh my god, you went and fucked your fucking ex. What the actual fuck."
Deva stayed quiet.
"Unbelievable," she said.
After a few minutes, though she asked, "Was he that good?"
