katikat"Even the Stars Are Not Safe in Heaven" by elrhiarhodan | Peter/El | Warning: Non-Con | In the two years following Elizabeth Burke’s kidnapping and her safe recovery, Peter has cut Neal out of his life, unwilling to forgive his part in Elizabeth’s trauma or the betrayal of their own partnership. The story begins with Neal’s successful completion of his work-release, and he says goodbye to Peter. It is a moment of finality. But time passes, some wounds heal and tragedy brings them back together. | ~21.000 words
