Lumine

"Weren't you just having your fun with Keqing?" I place my hands on my hips, giving the monster a nasty glare.

He chuckles nervously as he reaches a hand out to my face, he gently brushes a piece of my blonde hair out of my eyes.

My mouth slightly agape, I turn my head to the side, still staring at Tartaglia, I mouth a;

'Don't touch me'

He retracts his gloved hand and stares at me, he raises a brow as he seems displeased from what I just "told" him to do.

Do not touch me, do not look at me, do not even be in my presence for longer than I'm comfortable with.

"What's a princess like you doing here?" He starts. "Isn't your neck hurting you at all?"

He obviously avoids my question with another question.

Turning my head to face him again and folding my arms over my chest I stare at him. I don't want to respond, I will play the game that Diluc told me to play.

Do not act like myself, act rude and harsh and his feelings will eventually disappear.

Because who wants a harsh and cold wife?

I glare into his eyes, that's my response for his question.

He clicks his tongue. "Ah, playing that game, hm?" He takes a step forward, towards me.

I back up a step as he takes one closer, not wanting to come in contact with his body.

"Y'know, I kind of like it when you retaliate."
He chuckles darkly and takes another step, stretching and cracking his knuckles.

My back hits the wooden door behind me, I have nowhere to go. Fear is present on my features as I stare at the door behind me, and then the man now directly in front of me.

He slams his hand on the door, next to my head.

Not knowing where to look, I stare into his deadfully beautiful eyes, his long eyelashes really make his eyes stand out. Along with all of his features he really is a unique looking man...

What am I thinking? Snap out of it! He is a cold-blooded murderer, torturing Keqing...

My thoughts are interrupted as he lowers his neck and head to stare directly into my eyes.

The height difference between us is very drastic and makes me scared, he could probably crush me in an instant if he desired to. Would he bring himself to do that?

"I really enjoyed our..." his breath his my face and my nose scrunched up in disgust. "...time together the other night."

Not saying anything, as if playing the quiet game. I look around for something to help free myself out of this situation, the table with the broken vase is too far out of my reach.

If it was closer I could've used one of the shards to slash his face. That would be so wonderful.

I didn't even realize, but his face was mere inches away from mine, when I look back at him my vision is clouded with those wretched blue eyes and ginger hair.

Widening my eyes as I stare at him, I start to sweat and panic.

"I'm guessing you enjoyed it as well? You told me some interesting things that night."

What did I tell him? What did I say to you? You good for nothing creep...

When he was speaking, I swore I could've seen his canine teeth be sharper than a normal human's would've been.
