Oops I didn’t think I’d actually be into you by Lynn1998 – “I thought you were supposed to be at a meeting,” Kolivan said. Keith shrugged.

“I didn’t want to go,” he replied. Lance furrowed his brows. “Didn’t want to go?” He asked. Keith looked at Lance and his smile started to slip. “I…I’m sorry?”

“Have you no respect for your empire? You run off instead of tending to your duties, and flirt with me, a perfect stranger at the same time?” He questioned while gently pushing Keith away. “I beg your pardon-“

“If you can’t take your job as the future Emperor seriously, then you give me no incentive to take this marriage seriously.”

// Lance finds himself betrothed to a horrible man that he can’t help but feel attracted to.

Don’t Forget Your Vitamins by inkaroni – Lance is an omega. Keith is a beta. This was something Lance had made peace with and determined that there was no way they could ever work.

As he struggles with his new presentation, Lance tries his best to be there for him and support him. But it’s difficult when the guy you love is now totally capable of giving you the best sex of your life. (Takes place post-season 3. Keith pilots the black lion and Lance pilots the red lion.

follow me by dwreed, Rating: T, Word Count: 3,770, Summary: It was then that he noticed the flower crown in Lance’s hands, blinking incredulously when Lance placed it on his head, circling his ears.

“Hm? What’s this for?” he gingerly touched the petals circling his head, eyes going upwards as if he were going to be able to see it on his own head.

“Since you don’t get your own crown I figured I’d make you one. Come on, we should probably head back.” and then Lance was off, as if he hadn’t just made butterflies swoop low in Keith’s stomach.

“You know, I associate the color red very heavily with you.” He brought his free hand to rest on Keith’s chest plate. “It seems to me as if you know that. So I ask, do you think it simply looks good on me, or do you think I look pretty in your color, my sweet knight?”

Keith’s eyes widened a fraction as Lance gently slid his hand down his armor. He willed the pink tinge to his purple skin to go away as he cleared his throat.
