Primeval drabble: No Longer For Sale

Title: No Longer For Sale
Author: knitekat
Word Count: 100
Characters: Connor Temple, Philip Burton
Rating: 12
Disclaimer: Primeval belongs to Impossible Pictures. Certainly not me. Writing for fun and will replace.
A/N: For the P100 challenge 283: For Sale. Part of my Making An Impression drabble series and follows I Have A Bad Feeling About This. Thanks go to Fred for the beta, cheers m'dear.

Connor gazed at New Dawn as Philip explained everything – although Connor doubted it really was everything – and felt awed by the sheer scale of Philip's plan.

Then Connor caught the smug self-satisfied look on Philip's face and remembered what Philip had done to him and James. It was sobering to realise that, only a few short months ago, he'd have fallen for Philip's spiel, selling himself for the chance to be part of it.

But not now.

Connor's heart was no longer for sale, certainly not for the pretty baubles Philip was offering him. He’d already given it to another.

No matter how hard he may try, Philip cannot buy Connor's love or attention. Nice job.
