you are the oldest of your three other sisters. You are next in line for your parents' kingdom. Your family is the representative of humans. So as an act of peace, you are betrothed to a monster.
It was late but still no sign of the dark king. The others said he was "on a business trip and should be home tomorrow". Phantom practically begged dust to let me stay in his room. I curl up on the floor phantom loudly snoring into my chest. I was so happy I found my brothers. The warmth of contentment put me in sleep's grasp.

I walk into the boys snickering among themselves.
"What are you plotting?" I sigh. Their childish pranks were exhausting.
"nothin' boss. We uh, have a surprisee for yah," dust giggles, barely able to keep composure.
"princess, can you come down for a sec?" horror calls up the stairs.
"Be down in a minute," a female voice sings. I pause. It sounded like [y/n]. but that's impossible! She had left me for dream. Deliquite footsteps sound on the wood. My eye sockets widen with disbelief. I-it was her! Did she come back?
"we'll give you some privacy," horror shoos the others out. I can't do anything but stare. She's more beautiful than I remember. Her golden ringlets glisten in the morning light, her skin fine silver, and her lime green eyes. All of it. She was dressed in a breathtaking pink gown that complimented her lips.

your pov
Tears of joy immediately streak through my mascara as I run to him. He holds me pulling me further into him.
"I-I thought you left?" I hear him breathe.
"not of my own accord. I love YOU," I reply.
"but aren't you married?" He asks puzzled.
"yes. but I was betrothed. I had never loved him," I illuminate.
"you want to be mine?!" he exclaims surprised. a tinge of self-doubt echoed in his tone.
"Yes bone head," I lightly tease before kissing him. When our lips part I notice a tear. Was nightmare crying? Then my stomach growls angrily officially ruining the moment. He lets out a low chuckle of amusement taking me to the kitchen.
dreams pov
I watched her intently. They had been right she didn't want me. I had a mix of emotions but the most present was hate. I had claimed her, she was mine! My brother ALWAYS wanted what was MINE. Even Papy. And now THIS!?! No. This was the last time but I needed a plan. I returned home and Ink greeted me.
"where have you been?" he inquired, cocking a brow.
"I was looking for [y/n]. She's missing," his eye lights start to dart around anxiously "you wouldn't happen to know anything?" I question calmly.
"n-no. Why?"
"no reason," I reply. Blue enters.
"Have you seen the human? I can't find her," he says stuffing a taco in his mouth.
"I have but you aren't going to like it. Nightmare has her," I inform.
"I did warn you. It was obvious she wanted him," Ink reminded. Blue elbows his side as if warning him of something. I had recalled his gentle warning but didn't care enough to heed it. A sudden unpleasant thought came to mind. She couldn't have left on her own. Ink and maybe even blue had helped. I would have to deal with them later. Now I need to gather the others.
Ink's pov
I knew he suspected us. Now we will have to be more careful. She could get hurt again. I and blue looked at each other in fear. We need to tell her. We need to keep her SAFE. As soon as dream leaves I open a portal and blue follows me.
