APRICITY // technoblade x reader DISCONTINUED

"Touching," drawls a low voice, and your eyes shoot open. You feel Techno still against you, his arms tensing. His grip tightens around your waist.

"Mikah. What do you want."

His voice sounds relaxed, but your arms looped around his neck mean you can feel the tension that immediately settles into his muscles when the enderman speaks. Techno's fingers dig into your hip bones. You lift your head off of his shoulder, turning to face Mikah from your safe perch inside of Techno's toned arms.

The enderman is leaning against a vine-wrapped pillar of the gazebo, arms crossed. His violet eyes glow luminescent against his velvet-dark skin. The glow of the amber lights floating in midair around you seems to be sucked in by him. A chill snakes down your spine, but you hold your ground.

You feel the rumble of Techno's voice from where you're pressed against his chest. Your fingers loop into Techno's ruffled collar.

Mikah's eyes narrow. "Do I need a reason to come say hello to an old friend? Your manners are a bit rough around the edges." He pushes off from the column, stepping closer to you two, and tuts disapprovingly.His cold demeanor feels out of place in the hazy, comfortably warm autumn air. "Two lovers alone in the dark? Who knows what could happen. It would be a shame if they disappeared without a trace of evidence left behind. One might even think they simply.... ran off."

Techno shifts his weight so that he's between you and Mikah. "Threatening me and Y/n isn't a smart move, Mikah. I'm warning you now."

Mikah leans in, tipping your chin up with a clawed fingertip. You shiver, but level a glare at him. "Hmm, I think you've gotten it reversed, my friend."

Techno's jaw is tense, and you can practically feel him radiating barely-contained anger. "Have I, now."

Mikah nods. He flicks you across the nose with the tip of his finger, leaving a thin slash that makes your eyes water involuntarily. "You have. And do you want to know why, Technoblade?" he practically purrs, clawed fingers now digging into Techno's jaw.

"Why?" Techno growls out, and you can see his nose crinkle as he snarls.

A thin line of blood crawls down Techno's throat from the tip of Mikah's index finger. "Because you have something I want," his gaze rakes down your form before darting back to Techno, "And nobody will ever believe you."

The movement is so sudden that all you catch is a glint of ultraviolet purple and a searing pain like lightning through your body before everything is gone.
