Napoleon wanted to break down Illya's barrier.
An established relationship story.
Written: October 2007. Word count: 100.
The devil in me wanted to break down his barriers.
Wanted to break through the icy, distant, Russian reserve.
Wanted to see what the man behind the mask was like.
Wanted to see if there was someone behind the barriers he'd erected.
The angel in me said it wasn't the kind of thing a ‘gentleman' did.
It wasn't the kind of thing you did to your partner.
It wasn't the kind of thing you did to a fellow human being.
The devil in me won.
And it was a prize well worth winning.
Even the angel in me thinks so.
