🚨INTENSE CHAPTER AHEAD + IMPLIED NONCON.🚨

Reader POV

I didn't get far with Nacht but we somehow managed to convince the witch queen to lift the curse on my family when she saw I shared a similar personality with her deceased lover.

I didn't understand until she explained his family situation and how he was treated.

But as soon as we came back to the border to regain our strength to go back to the Spade kingdom, Langris was waiting and against my will, brought me back to House Vaude.

I didn't want to tell him the curse had been lifted.

Survive this and you can leave in 17 years or sooner. He'll assume I'm dead and move on.

He pushed me down onto the bed, slashing my arms with a dagger and stripping me of my clothes.

"No..." I whispered when he ripped my underwear and tossed the rags to the side, licking his lips with delight.

"Shut up. By the time I'm done with you, you'll be begging me to fuck you more and fill you with my children. Of course, I'd oblige since we're to be married," he smirked down at me. "Now be a good girl and let's both enjoy this."

Langris had no care in the world right now.

He tied my bloodied wrists to the headboard and looked down at me with a feral glint in his eyes.

"Let's begin-"

"You wouldn't dare! Have dignity and respect the fact we aren't married!" I spat at as I used my shadow magic to decrease the wounds.

Granted I don't want you to fuck me, but at least wait until the wedding.

That's a month away and I'll be able to leave.

Langris licked his lips and shook his head, unbuckling his pants. "I don't care about waiting until the wedding night. No one follows that anyway."

No shit you burnt crouton fucker.

"Take your older brother Shielo for example. He was born 7 months after your parents got married," the cruel man explained. "Besides, I want an heir quickly. As soon as possible."

And bring a child into this abuse?

"And why would you do that?" I glared at Langris who was stroking himself to the view of my bloody body. "You hate children."

He chuckled and licked my bloody leg. "True that I hate children, but they're the way to control you further. Not to mention the bloodlines need to continue. I'm surprised that failure brother of mine doesn't have an heir yet, legitimate or illegitimate."

He has a point. Finral is a flirt and I do hear from Vanessa at times that he often spends the night with women.

"But why would you want to continue my bloodline?" I questioned.

"Because you're going to die at 35. 17 more years. I think you'd want to know our children."

Ha, it's better not to tell him about the curse lifted right now.

I can fake my death and get the hell out.

"Okay then. Here's the deal," Langris lifted my chin with the knife, trapping my face between his legs and his leaking dick right in front of me.

"If you just enjoy this with me, I'll allow you to see Shielo."

My eyes widened and I looked up at him and was about to speak when he pushed his dick into my mouth and smirked.

"Oh, poor baby didn't know? Shielo was found last weekend by the witch's forest. He was taken there fourteen years ago."

His actions became a blur as I was shocked to think how Shielo was alive.

Once he was done he fell asleep next to me, holding me very tightly.

Nothing could've prepared me for the overwhelming pain I felt, Klaus' death came close though.

I slipped through the shadows, making sure my physical body stayed at the house.

Klaus came and found me. He comforted me but I couldn't hear anything he said. I kept crying and crying until I fell asleep in his arms but unfortunately, everyone who falls asleep has to wake up in a way.

I was awakened by Langris dragging me down to the cellar where the Vaudes kept wine, smirking at me.

"Don't even bother asking anyone for help. They all know you're here. Shielo knows as well." Langris held up a key. "Oh, and don't bother trying to use your shadow magic. I put an anti-magic collar on you earlier this morning before you woke up."

With a cruel slam of the door and the sound of the heavy lock, I was left in the darkness.

Hours ticked by and I heard people talking, and the servants rushing about their daily tasks.

I didn't know how long it was but I eventually figured out from the faint glow through the cracks of the door that days had passed.

One day, probably a week later, I heard the door open and Langris came in with food in his hands and a servant following him.

"You. Arrange for a table and a chair for me." Langris eyed the servant who obliged. Once the table was set he sat down and began eating the food, smirking when he heard my stomach. "Oh, are you hungry? Too bad."

Langris began to savor the food and one piece of ravioli fell to the infested floor so he kicked it over to me. "Eat it."

I looked at him with a disgusted look. "Why, and let the rats starve?"

"You better watch your attitude."

"Why? Are you afraid I'll say something you don't like? Get over it."

He got up and kicked my face, smirking at me. "You forget that I can keep you here all I want. You do know that I can marry you here, right? That means I can keep you here until the day you die. Wouldn't you like that?"

"Not really."

"Then all I ask is for you to give yourself to me." He lifted my chin and spat on my face. 

When I said nothing he scoffed. "Whatever. At least I know where you are."

I felt a huge surge of mana and the door burst open to reveal a very angry Finral who slammed Langris against the moss-covered wall and demanded to know where I was then saw me.

"(y/n)!" He was about to help me when Langris grabbed the chair and swung it at poor Finral's face, frowning.

"Brother. You ruin everything for me, don't you?"

"You ruin it yourself! What you're doing to (y/n) is unethical!"

Langris only shrugged. "She's going to be my wife in a few months, brother. Worry about your own life and I'll worry about mine."

"Absolutely not! You are a danger-"

"You do know if you speak about it, I'll tell Finesse everything. " Langris smiled at his brother with malice. "All the girls you've fucked behind her back."

"But she'll hate me!" 

"That won't be an issue once (y/n) is free if you tell everyone, right? You've always liked her." Langris pointed to the door. "So go tell everyone what I'm doing to her. Tell them how we're trying for an heir."

Finral looked at me then looked at his brother helplessly before he shook his head and left the room.

"YOU FUCKING COWARD!" I finally screamed which caused him to pause. "You're really going to let this midget do this to me for the sake of your own cocksleeve?! What the fuck!"

"Don't talk about Finesse like that," Finral growled. "She's worth more than you are to me."

"WOW!" I threw some straw in his direction out of anger. "Fuck you! I hope she has an STD, cockhead!"

Finral left through a portal and it was just Langris and me.

"See? No one really wants you," he smiled as he leaned down and stroked my hair, ignoring the way I glared at him with hatred. "I'm the only one who wants you. Give in."

"Never."

He shrugged. "Ok, well that's fine. A couple more days in here might patch you right up."

And once again the door shut.
