"Nonsense," Volgin murmured. "There's nothing to forgive. Lightning strikes where it wants."
He gave a small laugh, a slight shrug of his shoulders, but even that tiny motion cost him.
Volgin frowned as he felt once more newly exhausted, unable to hold his eyes open.
"And...you know I don't mind...a little agony...now and then."
In spite of the darkness that threatened to overtake him, Volgin felt pleased to be reminded of what he and Alexei had once shared together, glad for the fact his power hadn't tried to steal their intimacy from Alexei's memory.
No, Alyosha seemed to remember everything just fine, now.
"Mmm...you know I'll hold you to each and every promise," he whispered, smiling again as he thought of the consequences to come. Alexei knew how to own him, how to break and then remold him. He knew how to dole out exquisite pain, knew how to touch Volgin everywhere he liked. And more than that, Alexei did it all with absolute skill and confidence.
But event the promise of what was to come wasn't quite enough to let Volgin stave off weakness.

"And I'll be better soon, Alyosha."
His lips twitched, even as his eyes drooped shut.
"Trust me."
