Venomous (Twisted Wonderland x Fem! Reader)

1: Twisted Wonderland

3rd Pov

Darkness covered the whole place as it is now night time, in the middle of an isolated forest. There sat a house, a wooden quite large in size abode.

Looking closely, a small flicker of light from a lighted candle gives a fair amount of heat and brightness against the dark cold night.

A gush of wind blew and a pair of hands cover the flames, their only source of light, avoiding it to be extinguish. Finally, feeling it is okay to retract their hands, they uncovered the orange flame and hold the book they let rest on their lap.

Giving back their whole attention to the book, another distraction appeared.

"Psst!" the newcomer called out, trying to get their attention. Knowing who the person is, they only hum in response, too immersed in the book in hand.

They heard a groan "Wow, I guess that book you read, for a couple of times already, is more interesting than this gossip I have for you" letting out a sigh, their eyes left the text of the book and cast it upon the person.

A girl with brown hair, tied in a low messy ponytail, wearing a patched dress that seems not to have been wash for almost days, is just the only a thin cover for her petite body.

Yanna is her name. The said settled herself on the wooden floor "I knew it! You are also curious!" the other girl sitting on the bed, only giggle as she handed her a spare blanket to give her warmth opposed to the cool wind of the night.

"If it's about the "scavenger" then I am all ears" Yanna upon hearing that, her eyes sparkle in excitement. Cannot contain her tattle of tales, she started talking "The newest rumor about the "scavenger" is that he has purple hair, cut in short length like the other guys" Yanna made a audible squeak "Oh my! Now, everyone is more intrigued about him! What a dreamy prince charming!" she stood off the ground and twirl around with the blanket use as a prop in her mini theatrical dance.

The other girl shake her head "You do know he is no prince Charming, right? He is thief with a bounty on his head and unidentified person that could be more dangerous than we all know" she voiced out, but Yanna didn't paid no mind in her words.

"Even if he is a murder or drug dealer, if he is handsome then..." Yanna made a dramatic pose, wrapping the blanket to herself, acting as if someone is hugging her "... I'll gladly get kidnapped or be killed by them" then she started swaying like a drunk man trying to walk straight.

"Dying is not good.."

"But we are talking about handsome, big chunky man here"

"Still, getting yourself killed just because of such excuse is pathetic"

Yanna huff "Handsome men are handsome men, killer or not, the bottom line is, THEY ARE HANDSOME!" she argued back.

"Your hobby of liking such mens are—"

"—are great hobby, it means I have good taste in mens"

Accepting her defeat, knowing how stubborn the other party is, they only shook their head "Whatever, I'm just gonna continue reading..." she set her eyes back on the book, with such focus.

Yanna grumble at her friend. Just then they heard heavy footsteps, coming from outside of their small room.

The two look at each other, before scampering to their respective beds then closing their eyes, pretending to sleep. Yanna pointed at the candle, the other girl nodded her head before blowing the flames, putting it out.

The door opened, a lady in her 30's entered the room. Her squinted eyes observed the two sleeping girls. She stayed for a couple of minutes before exiting the room.

Yanna open an eye, looking if the old lady really is gone. After clarifying that she is, she called the other girl "(Y/n)!" the girl with (h/c) open her eyes, it landed on Yanna "She's gone, the old hag is gone!"

Yanna slowly climb off her bed, tip toe going to the other side of the room, where (Y/n)'s bed is located near the window.

Climbing up the other's bed, Yanna let out a big grin "One day, let's get out of here, let's bring our little siblings along with us" she put her pinky finger up "Promise?" (Y/n) look at her hand, hesitation clouded her mind. Yet she shook it all away, then locked their pinky's together.

"Promise!" seeing the beaming expression of Yanna, one feeling starts to bloom in (Y/n)'s chest.

She's feeling guilty.

Letting go of each others finger, Yanna went back to her bed but before sleeping she said her good night then complete shutting her eyes close.

(Y/n) eyes stayed looking at Yanna's sleeping form, somewhat watching her before looking up at the moon surrounded with billions of stars.

"We meet again..." looking down on the ground, there is a horse, scary looking one with a coach attached to it by a two black retainers.

"...You damn horse" her (e/c) eyes narrowed at the animal, who only release a neigh sound.
