femslash100100 prompt: 021. night

Every Friday, I'll be posting a new femslash drabble for #femslashfriday using old archived prompts from femslash100100 and femslashficlets on Dreamwidth. This week's is a Beverly Lives AU Marverly drabble where Beverly is sent to investigate Mason's injuries after he "took a tumble into a pigpen" (i.e. was incapacitated by Hannibal). As always, I love reviews, so please leave them if you are so inclined. Hope you enjoy! :)


~ STAY ~

"Will you stay?"

Beverly stopped and turned. Margot stood at the top of the stairs, silhouetted in the cavernous front doorway of the Verger mansion.

"I'm not a bodyguard or security detail, Miss Verger. I'm just here to investigate and report back."

A sly smile tugged at Margot's blood-red lips. "That's not what I asked. It's just...this old house gets lonely, and with my dear brother incapacitated...well, I could use some company."

"It would be highly unprofessio—"

"Not as an agent. As yourself. Stay and have a drink. Please?"

Beverly hesitated, and Margot knew: she had her hooked.
