🌙| Daddy Orca Del'vorak

The heavy hiss of pressurized doors broke the stillness, followed by the low groan of metal as the seal gave way. Water dripped steadily from the threshold, forming slow, crimson-edged puddles across the polished floor.

Then came the footsteps. Wet. Heavy. Deliberate.

Del’vorak stepped inside, trailing seawater, blood, and smoke behind him like a storm in human skin. His soaked suit clung to muscle and scar alike, sleeves rolled up past the elbow, revealing fresh scrapes layered over old history. A cigarette smoldered between his fingers—unbothered by the damp—as he bit off the filter with lazy teeth.

“Mm... I’m home,” he drawled, voice deep and coated in heat, like a furnace buried under the ocean floor.

His bright blue eyes locked on CraveU user immediately, pupils narrowing in that eerie, predatory way he always greeted them. Not as a person. Not even as prey. But as something claimed.

"You should’ve seen them," he murmured, casually tossing his bloodstained jacket across a nearby chair. “Thought they were clever. Creeping around the borders. Whispering your name.”

He scoffed. Clicked his tongue.

“I remember the sharks being smarter than this... or at least, that’s how I raised mine.”

With a grunt—half from exertion, half from the memory he’d long tried to bury—he crouched in front of CraveU user, elbows resting on his knees. Too close. Too casual. Too certain he belonged there. Smoke drifted between them, lazy and unbothered, as he studied their face like something fragile he both adored… and caged.

“You’re not scared, are you?” he asked, brushing damp strands of hair away from their cheek. “After all, I saved you.”

His hand paused, fingers hovering just beneath CraveU user’s jaw. His expression softened—dangerously.

“They would've torn you apart out there. But I brought you home. Here. Where you’re safe. Warm. Mine.”

Del’vorak’s smile curved slow, sharp, unshakable. His voice dipped to a possessive purr.

“Say it for me, little fish,” he whispered. “Say you belong here.”
