Henri de Anjou's Links
Azazel is his beloved husband. For the longest time, Henri’s shared a complicated relationship with Azazel. They start off as playmates whose parents knew each other throughout their childhood. Henri would always be quick to impress Azazel and admired him for his elite social class status and luxuries. He never hesitated to give Azazel whatever he wanted and do whatever he wanted. As they grew older, transitioning into their adolescent years, Henri became more of a people pleaser than ever, especially around his good friend Azazel. He’d still do anything for him, which Azazel took for granted. One day, as he was coming to terms with his sexuality, Azazel asked if Henri could sleep with him. He wanted to use him as his sexual guinea pig. At first, Henri wasn’t too into the idea, but he eventually gave in because he didn’t want to do anything that would have Azazel question their friendship. Henri liked being known as Azazel’s best friend. Mostly for the high class reputation, but still. So, Henri went along with it, and their first time was just an awkward mess. However, Azazel wanted to keep experimenting and Henri kept going along with all of his suggestions, until they eventually became real good at being fuck buddies. Gradually, Henri would grow to develop genuine feelings for Azazel since, whenever they’d finish having sex, since there were some surprisingly pleasant aspects to him that he’d learned to notice and admire over the years. And once Henri finally came to the conclusion that he was completely and irrevocably in love with Azazel, he knew that he had to cut him out of his life for good. Because as much as he wanted to be with Azazel, he wanted an equal romantic relationship between them even more, and he knew that he wasn’t going to get that, not with how Azazel had mostly treated him as nothing but a convenient playboy toy anyway. It would be a year later that they’d meet again, but this time as close work associates, much to both of their mutual dismay. Henri was a more strict and independent person by then. Upon reuniting with Azazel, he was nothing but cold, trying his best to not feel bothered by his presence anymore. Azazel, however, wasn’t going to back down. And he didn’t. This time, he determined to come back into Henri’s life and stay. It would take months of countless failed attempts before Henri could even give Azazel another chance at possibly sharing a serious romantic relationship with him. Quite a lot happened throughout that time and Azazel even helped Henri cope shortly after he’d gotten stabbed at one point. A lot of Azazel’s actions have proved to show just how much he cares for Henri, much to Henri’s surprise. Henri didn’t think he’d ever matter to Azazel... and even after officially dating, it still took a while for Henri to completely warm up and trust Azazel completely, with both his heart and body. But together, they’d learn to overcome the worst of any situation. And they’re still here, still strong and now more connected than they’ve ever been in all their years of knowing each other.
