At this point, the number of balls being hosted this season was just the same as the last, blending together by stupid flowers, jewellery, gowns and music. The same thing over and over again. Frankly, it was becoming annoying to (y/n) as she walked down the stairs with her sister and Lady Grace for the Hagreeves' annual Spring Ball. She just wanted to leave and go for a walk to calm her nerves, especially when Five kept looking at her when he asked her sister for her first dance.

He needs to stop looking at me and focus on dancing with her.

The last few notes of the song slowly ended as the couples on the dance floor bowed to each other to end their dance, (y/n) moving to drab some whiskey to drink. "You're drinking again..." (y/n) grinds her jaw as she heard Five behind him. She ignores him and downs the drink to grab another but her hand was stopped by his. "I thought you would stop drinking for your sister." Five frowns as (y/n) sighs out but doesn't turn to look at him. He had a feeling that (y/n) only drinks when she didn't want to face or feel certain things, or to drown them out and he was worried for her.

"What my business is with my sister is none of your concern." (y/n) snaps, turning around to face Five as he freezes from her beauty. She wore a dark blue gown that was littered with gems, sheer lace gloves also donned with the mesmerising gems as well as in her hair that was pinned up loosely with a crown. (y/n) felt self-conscious from how Five was looking at her, wondering if it was a good idea for Lady Grace to dress her.

"Sister!" (y/n) blinks and turns to face her younger sibling, putting on a soft smile for her to hide the irritation away. "You came!"

"I did..."

"Fantastic, because now you and Viscount Hargreeves can take to the dancefloor."

"What why-"

"-not once have you danced this whole season."

"It's because I don't know how to-"

"-that's a lie and you know it. You were the one to teach me." (y/n) puffs her cheeks as she was caught in a lie.

"I shouldn't-"

"-you two need to get to put your differences aside! I can't have my sister harbouring hatred for my courter."

"(s/n) don't-" the young girl was pushing her older sister and the Viscount towards the dancefloor, the two now stuck in the middle when the music starts playing. Five saw how anxious and stressed (y/n) was, holding out his hand for her.

"May I have this dance, Viscountess (l/n)?" (y/n) looked at Five then his hand and back at him, hesitantly placing her hand in his and he carefully holds her hand tightly before bowing towards her. Five earns a sharp gasp of surprise when he pulls (y/n) closer to him, her hand on his shoulder as his holds her waist. "Just keep your eyes on me, blur everyone else out from around you."

"That's easy to say when you're not trying to step on someone else's foot." (y/n) mumbles out as she danced with Five, slowly getting a hang of the dance moves that now came back to her.

Five couldn't take his eyes away from her, a warmth in his chest to see a slight smile on her lips as she enjoyed herself. He didn't want to take his eyes away from her as she danced beneath his arm. Five spun (y/n) and pulled her back against his chest, feeling her shudder in his hold as he looked down at her. (y/n) turned her head to look at Five, noticing how close he was and she was lost in his green eyes. She could feel his every touch on her arm and waist, every hitch of his breath against her neck or his heated gaze that never left her.

"Do you have something you wish to say regarding my sister?" (y/n) tried to break the tension, glancing at her younger sibling who was smiling at them.

"If I were to ask for her hand, would you give me permission?"

"I want my sister to be happy."

"And do you think I can make her happy?"

"That is a better question for you to answer. Can you make her happy?" (y/n) was greeted with silence and she didn't like the hesitance Five was showing. "You're hesitant. Are you reconsidering your declaration-

"-is that what you want?" Five spins (y/n) and pulls her close to have her hands hold his shoulders. "For me to reconsider."

"What I want isn't relevant." Five frowned at the notion.

"What you want is relevant, especially when it comes to your happiness."

"My happiness isn't important, my sisters is-"

"-your happiness is just as important as your sisters!" Five cuts (y/n) off to see her purse her lips, shaking her head.

"No, my happiness doesn't matter. I don't matter, only my mission. To have my sister happily married so I can leave and not be a burden to anyone anymore-"

"-you're planning to leave!? You're abandoning her!?" Five exclaims, the news infuriating him.

"I'm not abandoning her! She won't need me!" (y/n) steps back away from Five, glaring at him as she tried to hold back her tears. "No one will need me and there will be no reason for me to stay here. I can be free. I won't have to uphold my family name anymore and just live-" (y/n) quietens as she notices people looking at her and stumbles back, quickly bowing to Five and running away from the ballroom to escape their judgement.

"(y/n)!" Lady Grace calls for her, looking at her son to go after and but Five was already leaving the ballroom. (y/n) barges into a room, throwing the crown onto the couch and taking off her gloves to run her fingers through her hair as she tried to hold back her tears. She paced the floor, her breath hitching as the door opened to reveal Five as he walked in and closed it behind him.

"Please just go-"

"You're really leaving!?"

"Yes! Why are you so distressed about that!?" (y/n) watches as Five paces the space in front of her.

"When are you leaving?" She was confused as to why he was so mad. "Immediately? Once your sister is married?"

"Of course, there's no need for me anymore-"

"-do you not care about finding a match for yourself-"

"-no because I can't let myself become a burden to them if I do!"

"You are not a burden! You don't need to leave-"

"-that's all I've known to do!" (y/n) screams outs, Five freezing before her. "I have forsaken my own happiness to make sure my sister is never once miserable! To make sure she has a happy childhood, a happy life that I never got! I pushed away everything I needed to give her everything she wanted! Put her before myself! I don't ever want her to be forsaken with the burden of taking the family name but even I never wanted it! I wanted my life back before being the Viscountess, before father died and left me, only a 16-year-old to care for my sister!" (y/n) gasped as she spilled the one secret she decided to take to her grave, Five also in shock.

"Your father is dead...?"

"I can't be here anymore." (y/n) moved to leave but Five grabbed her.

"You're running away from your problems-."

"-of course I am! I can't take it anymore!" (y/n) tried to free herself from Five's grip but he holds her close. "Let me go!"

"No! I'm not losing you!"

"You don't want me, you want my sister-"

"-I don't want her!" (y/n) looks up at Five with wide eyes, her panting from yelling at him. "I don't want her..."

"Five, no-"

"-I want you..." she frowns and bows her head.

"You can't-we can't-"

"-it's you that I want (y/n)..." Five pulls her close as she starts crying in his arms.

"I can't... I can't hurt my sister... I can't be selfish. I put her needs before my own for so many years, I can't do it now-"

"-then let me be selfish." (y/n) looks up at Five as he looks down at her with a soft gaze, wiping her tears away with his thumb. "It's you that I want..." he whispers, leaning his forehead on hers as his lips brush against hers.

"What... what are you doing...?" (y/n) whispers, her hands grasping onto Five's shoulders as his hands hold her waist.

"Tell me to stop... tell me you do not want me and I will go away..." (y/n) closes her eyes, her heart racing as Five kisses her jaw.

"I...I want... I want you." (y/n) whispers as Five leans back, smiling before moving down to kiss her. She gasps from the heated kiss, tangling her fingers in Five's hair as he kisses her deeply. Five groans from the sweet taste of (y/n)'s lips, diving to kiss her deeper with urgent need as he scrambles to pin her against a wall. (y/n) lets out a moan in surprise, her back slammed against the wall as Five parts her lips with his tongue before pushing it into her mouth.

"God (y/n)..." Five groans out, his senses filled with only her as he leans back for her to pant for air before he dives to kiss her harder, tangling his fingers in her hair to pull her head back before leaning down to kiss her neck.

"Oh Five~" (y/n) moans out, her fingers running up his chest as he bit down on her neck to leave his mark on her, his hands tugging down the sleeves of her dress. He moves to leave kisses down her neck and shoulders, sucking on her collarbone and the top of her breasts. "F-Five wait-" (y/n) stutters out when he suddenly picks her up and pushes her further into the wall, her legs around his waist as he pulls her dress down to her stomach. "Shit~" (y/n) groans out as Five fondles one of her breasts, taking the other into his mouth that earns him a loud whine. Five smirks as he sucks harder, groaning softly as (y/n) gently grips his hair and pushes him closer to her chest. He looks up at (y/n) with her mouth open in a whine and her eyes closed, head leaned back against the wall and he moans from how beautiful she was in his hold.

Shots of pleasure ran up (y/n)'s spine as Five grind his hips into her, her dress bunched up around her stomach as Five ran one of his hands up her thigh. He wanted to hear more of her, more of her moans and whines for him. Five moves to kiss (y/n) again, swallowing her moans as his hands run over her waist to grasp her ass, pulling her closer into him.

Before he could pull down her lace garters and panties, there was a knock on the door. "Five? Dear, did you find (y/n)?" Lady Grace asks, the locked doorknob moving.

"Your mother-" (y/n)'s breathe hitches as Five delves his hands beneath her panties to touch her soaked core, making her cheeks burn. "Five-!" he silences her with a deep kiss, taking in the sharp moan as he slips a finger into her pussy.

"Stay silent love." Five growls lowly, enjoying the way (y/n) bit down on her lips to hold her moans as he pushed another finger into her.

"She-" (y/n) whines out as Five fucks his fingers into her harder, curling inside her that has her panting.

"Five?" Lady Grace asks but tsks and walks away, letting (y/n) breathe out her moan as Five has her keening from the heated knot in her stomach forming.

"Five-I'm going to-" the Viscount grins knowingly, his thumb rubbing her clit as he kisses her and holds her still as she trembles from the knot snapping harshly, cumming over his hands. "Five!" (y/n) moans through the kiss, holding him close until she stopped shaking.

Five lets her breathe, leaning down to leave a gentle kiss on her neck before slipping his fingers out. "Easy darling." Five whispers, littering butterfly kisses across her neck before gently setting her down on her feet.

"Five.. we-"

"-I want you (y/n)... no one else. Please don't push me away..."
