His Fake Marriage

•A Date With A Fatui Harbinger•

*I lied! Here's 2 chapters for you guys! I was so excited to write I couldn't wait a full day 😭

~Scaramouche~

'The fuck did she just say? A date?? Why would such a festival be considered a date to her?'

Whatever the case may be, she better have a good explanation as to why Scaramouche was going on a date with her.

"Date? Give me one good reason why I should continue tolerating you?"

"Well, it's my way to pay you back! I already don't have that much Mora on me, do you expect me to get on my hands and knees and beg for Mora?"

He snickered at her response, begging she said? Someone like the Sixth wouldn't mind seeing that form of her.

"Begging? Go right ahead, maybe I'll take pity on you and throw you a few coins."

She got a little red and let go of his hand. Now that was quite bothersome. Trying to distant herself huh? Not while he's there.

"If you want to pay me back, I suggest you don't let go of my hand, woman. I won't say it twice, I hate repeating myself. So keep that inside your head." He threatened as he snatched her hand into his.

There's something about holding her hand that puts the harbinger's mind at ease. Maybe it's because he know she won't be able to run away, she's quite the troublemaker after all. If his fiancée was like this he would surely engrave it into her head till all she thinks about is him.

He chuckled at his own thoughts and it drew (Y/N)'s attention.

"What are you laughing at Kuni? Did you see something funny?"

"Nothing of the matter, it was simply my thoughts entertaining me since someone isn't."

"HEY! I am! Can you not look up at the sky? There are tons of beautiful lanterns passing by and all you can do is make fun of me."

"Why do I need to look at the sky when all I need to do is look at you?"

That got her to shut up, what a shy woman. Turning red as soon as Scaramouche utter a useless compliment. Are all humans like this? Then again, he really doesn't give a shit. Humans are rather pathetic with how they live.

Being entertained by mere floating candles? What in the actual fuck are they thinking. Whatever the case is, he'll have to put up with this festival for now. For that woman's sake.

If a prey deems you uninterested in them, they'll lower their guards; and that's when you strike. She is merely just that - a prey. His prey.

Before Scaramouche got what was coming for him, the girl dragged him along towards the center of Liyue Harbor. This was where all of the commotion was coming from. If one were to look in any direction, there would be tons of lanterns along with chatty people.

That was enough to irritate the harbinger as he did not like places with loud noises.

"Hey, listen up. I'm not a big fan of crowded places, take me somewhere else or I'll obliterate this place."

"What is that attitude?? All you had to say was 'take me somewhere else'! No need to threaten these people's lives."

"Tch- Like I care for anyone's well-being. Get a move on already."

"Yeah, yeah. We're going somewhere more private."

After a few minutes of walking up stairs, the woman drags Scaramouche to a secluded location where the view in front of them was something out of a painting.
