Author's Summary: An AU that shamelessly thieves giant pieces of plot from Anne Rice's novel Belinda. Blaine is thirty-four. Kurt is sixteen. Stuff happens (not exactly the same stuff as is in the book, jsyk).
Review:
There a few fics in this fandom that have to be read and reread over and over, and then read just one more time, and this certainly qualifies as one of them.
This really is the creme de la creme of age difference fic. Kurt's blunt yet seductive innocence is so perfectly contrasted with the dark, wanting tones of Blaine's sexuality, enough that when they finally do get together after the slow burn of sexual tension the results could melt your skin off. And that long stretch of underlying (and overlying) sexual tension is absolutely perfectly crafted.
But it's not just Kurt and Blaine's chemistry that makes this fic so delectable; the sense of waiting and foreboding that something bad is going to happen just forces to you to keep on reading until sunrise. Kurt's past is shrouded in uncertainty, and may I say, that sense of mystery really suits him. The build to the pinnacle of the plot and then the following excitement of making plans and carrying them out had me squealing in my seat.
And Cimms' writing is so clever and well-crafted, too: she knows just which word to use to make you gasp and giggle and grab the nearest box of tissues. And a special shoutout to her smut-writing talent, because it definitely deserves one.
