Interrogation (Vincent de Gramont x reader)

“All right, detective, let's get this over with. Is that your husband's body we found this morning?” the fellow detective asked you as he sat down.

You looked at the crime scene photo he pushed in front of you, then closed your eyes and took a deep breath. “It is,” you replied eventually.

There were so many questions in your head at the moment that it was hard to focus on the interrogation. You had spent the last few weeks working on a case involving international criminals in New York, but then the leads brought you home. Vincent seemed to be on the edge when you met again, you noticed it, but you assumed it was business-related.

“Do you know why he went to Sacré-Cœur this morning?” came the next question.

“No.”

“When was the last time you talked to him?”

You thought for a moment, giving yourself a few seconds to remember the events of the past twenty-four hours. “Last night when I got home around ten,” you replied. “He was working all night so I just said goodnight then went to sleep.”

He watched you carefully, thinking about your answer, probably putting it on the timeline to see what was missing. “Did he go to bed eventually?”

“I don't think so.” You looked up at the other Interpol detective, waiting patiently for him to go on. But he didn't say anything, instead he picked up the photo and took a look at it. “You should ask his staff, maybe they know more about the hours between the last time I saw him and when he left the house.”

A short laugh left his lips for some reason, and your eyes widened in shock. You had been working together for years, your husband had just died, and he was laughing? What was wrong with this guy?

“Well, I tried to do that, but somehow everyone who could have answered my questions had left in a hurry. We're looking for them, but I doubt we will find anyone,” he informed you.

You couldn't believe your ears. All those people you knew and trusted ran away? And how did they do that so soon after his death? How did they find out before you? The pile of questions was growing bigger with each passing second and you were struggling to keep yourself together.

You had just lost the love of your life, but for some reason the circumstances of his death made you question everything you had known about him. So many people died in Paris last night, all of them criminals from all around the world, and coincidentally your husband died the same night. It didn't make sense. Had he been at the wrong place at the wrong time?

But you knew one thing for sure–you would be sidelined after this. The possibility of your husband's death being related to all of those murders you were looking into definitely meant you couldn't be a part of this investigation anymore. And with that your chance to get quick answers disappeared as well.

final thing i want to say on this but yeah just saying… cishet women insisting it’s just SO AWFUL of gay & trans men (and to an extent non-binary people) to ask for representation from choices or the romance genre in general because it’s a genre made for WOMEN (ignoring that there’s still a lot of work to be done to represent ALL women equally in the genre too lmao)

…you guys realize you’re using the same logic as the cishet white men who complain about women, or ANYONE ELSE who doesnt fit that category being included in shit like video games or comics or almost anything else? there are NO genres that are “made for us” and your homophobia and transphobia isnt instantly more absolvable just because you aren’t a man
