Russia attending a slave-auction, looking for some new action to his bed. He ends up buying Canada and at first forces himself onto this virgin country, but in the end, Canada's nervous and pleasing personality brings him to fall in love with the boy.
Bonus is Russia having other slaves (like Lithuania), but only having true interest in Canada.

Francis stubbed out his cigar, tilting his head back close to Arthur’s shoulder. The Frenchs’ Jacobite revolution that failed hadn’t dampened his spirits, and the issues with Austrian succession should’ve had the Englishman and Frenchman bickering. But they seemed appeased with each other’s company, and Ivan watched, fascinated as Francis motioned younger, dark haired man to refill his wine.

And among them one - sandy blond, at first glance - stood with shoulders straight and feet firmly grounded. Ivan watched him, thrilled to be unseen, walking with pure suppleness of movement, an easy roll of muscle unravelling across his shoulders. His skin might’ve been pale but clearly the outdoors had changed it to a slightly golden brush. The muscle on the inner cheek twitched slightly; Ivan wondered what it would taste like

Small talk was lost on the Russian, who felt you should only speak when you had something to say. He looked so self-contained, and despite not meeting his eyes the boy’s presence was a solid force of attraction, catching Ivan’s gaze in every motion, and every nuance of posture. He made move to touch him, the nearness of skin creating a spark under his cool exterior. But the man turned, pivoting on spot

“For tonight, since there is nothing else, you sleep beside me.” Ivan said, towelling his hair. He tossed it aside to the silk couch by the window, moving to the younger man. Outside there was the distant sound of revolution, and if he tried he could smell smoke on the air

He didn’t want to step back, to see the expression, to see the hate or fear or shame. Mathieu’s weight was settled almost entirely against him, letting Ivan hold him up. Ivan moved back slowly keeping his eyes to the ground and turned away

"Besides, I am just a servant, right? It has nothing to do with me.” But that was the whole problem, Ivan thought desperately, the whole problem is suddenly everything is about you

Even several years later, the peace inside Ivan was rarely disturbed, and he felt optimistic about Elizabeth’s reign. The succession had been a commotion but the people liked her well enough, and her policies put the Russian’s first, for once. The only violent incident had been in revolt to get her to the throne, incidentally. Ivan had no control over the violence in his people and thus, sometimes, none over himself. When he made to strike one of the cooks though, Mathieu was there, grabbing his arms and pulling him close, trying to sooth the agitation. He had nearly hit him too, hoping the man would fight back, that he could fight

This little anon is head over heels in love with this fic, and not an ounce ashamed to admit it. The details can be heavy but they help to craft a richly interesting story, and I love the way your Ivan perceives and reacts to Matthew. This is beautiful so far; can't wait for more. ♥ *F5F5F5*

It was clear now; the boy had no idea. He had trusted Ivan’s word, and now the universe was falling down around him, shattering like he really had dropped all that glass. He looked so tired, the strain just between the brows, the intent profile

Delighted anon has been following with bated breath, and is simultaneously gleeing in her seat and disappointed to see it end so soon, especially there. :P You did tie it off well but they were finally getting to ittt, and I've very much enjoyed this piece. ♥ Thank you for a beautifully-written look at their relationship--there needs to be more Russia/Canada out there, sigh.

DOUBLE BONUS (sorry ^^") is happy ending~
