Trigger warning: abuse, bullying

Y/N didn't know how they ended up in this situation. Not too long ago, they were living a somewhat happy life with their family, despite the constant  beatings and verbal abuse they endured. But then, their parents were in debt, and they made the decision to sell Y/N off as a maid to the Dimitrescu Castle. It was a common practice, apparently, and Y/N's life suddenly took a dark turn.

Being the youngest among the maids, Y/N became an easy target for the higher-ups. They were subjected to name-calling, tripping, and even spitting. It was a nightmare, and Y/N felt like there was no escape. They didn't know who to turn to or where to go, and they believed that no one cared about them or their well-being.

One day, Y/N was walking down the hallway, carrying a tray of food to one of the rooms when one of the maids deliberately tripped them, causing Y/N to fall and spill the contents of the tray all over the floor. Laughter erupted from the other maids, and Y/N could feel the heat rising to their face. They were humiliated.

But then, a voice boomed through the hallway. "What is going on here?" It was Lady Alcina Dimitrescu herself, and her daughters were right behind her. Y/N could feel their eyes on them, and they couldn't help but shrink back a little.

One of the maids spoke up. "Nothing, Lady Dimitrescu. Just a little accident."

"That 'little accident' ruined someone's hard work," Alcina said, her eyes narrowing. "Who did this?"

The maid that tripped Y/N hesitated for a moment before pointing at them. "It was y/n. They are  always so clumsy."

Alcina's gaze shifted towards Y/N, and they felt like they were about to be scolded and punished, they make themselves as small as possible trying to avoid more pain and suffering. But then, Cassandra, the middle daughter, spoke up. "That's not true, Mother. Y/n is one of the best maids here. I'm sure she wouldn't do something like that."

"Exactly," Bela, the eldest daughter, chimed in. "I think I saw Olivia and her cronies snickering earlier. They're always picking on y/n because she's too kind for her own good."

Alcina's expression softened as she turned towards Y/N. "Is that true, y/n, draga?"

Y/N could feel their heart pounding in their chest. They couldn't believe that the Dimitrescu family was defending them, of all people. "Y-Yes, Lady Dimitrescu. They've been bullying me since I got here."

Alcina's eyes flickered with anger. "That is unacceptable. This behaviour will not be tolerated in my castle. From now on, Olivia and her group will be punished accordingly. As for you, y/n, I would like to offer you a place in our family. You will not be treated as a maid but as one of our own. I have had these parental feelings for you the second you were brought to me my sweet child. What do you say?"

Y/N was speechless. They couldn't believe what they were hearing. The Dimitrescu family was offering to adopt them, to take them away from this life of abuse and misery. Tears welled up in their eyes as they nodded, unable to find the words to express their gratitude.

The rest of their time at the Dimitrescu Castle was like a dream. They were treated with kindness and respect, and they felt like they had finally found a home. The bullying stopped, and Y/N could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

One day, as Y/N was helping Alcina with some paperwork, she noticed the bruises on their arms. "What happened?" she asked gently.

Y/N hesitated for a moment before telling Alcina about their past, about the abuse they endured at the hands of their family. Alcina listened intently, her expression darkening with every word.

"I see," she said slowly. "Well, let me tell you something, y/n. No one deserves to be treated like that. You are a part of this family now, and we will protect you. Always."

And for the first time in their life, Y/N felt safe. They had found a family that cared about them, and they knew that they would do anything to keep them from harm. They were safe at last.
