Unbound by helena78 and others on AO3 139K
~wip, modern-au, powered, soulbonding, dom/sub, forcebonding
Unbound is the middle of three stories in the series and will wrench you through the biggest angst-forest there ever was. Charles and Erik are soulbound but too young to find each other in person yet. They can feel emotions and sometimes thoughts. Erik's foster parents assume he's sick and take him to see Bond Therapist Dr Shaw. Horribleness ensues.
Note, story three in this series is complete and is a fluffy version of the same premis, where Charles and Erik do meet at 14.
Work in progress at Determined - Part 5, 27 August 2012

Utopia by
takmarierah on the kink meme~wip, erik-in-charge, the-brotherhood-rules-okay, captured-charles, star
After establishing himself as the ruler of the world, Erik brings Charles to his new home/palace and informs him very politely that he, Charles Xavier, is to be his new consort. Charles is less than pleased. Incredible, detailed, sumptuous distopian AU, rich with backstory and detail. And I'm not just saying that because I'm beta-ing it.
