Time for Tea [Wriothesley x Male Reader]. 🍋

4. Underworld

As the platform made it's way down, the man and I were in a awkward silence. Of course, I wanted to break it since I have to admit, he is fine..

"So uh.." I said, fidgeting my fingers.

"You are?" The man finished the sentence for me.

"O-oh, I'm uh Y/N, nice to meet you!" I said, offering to shake hands.

The man took my hand and shook it, and I felt his rough, but smooth hand touch mine. It was a really comfortable feeling.

"I'm suprised that your not afraid of me." He smiled in a confident way.

"What do you mean? What's there to fear.." I said confused. What is there to fear?

"Well, we can start with you calling me Your Grace." He smirked, nudging my shoulder.

"U-uh, Yea no thanks. I'm sorry but I don't really think I should call you that." I said, blushing a bit.

"You sure? You could get fired on your first day." He chuckles, petting me. I push his hand off my head and refuted in a pouty tone. "My apologies but who do you think you are threatening me like that?"

"I'm sorry, what did you say? Do you not know who I am?" The man looked at me with a shocked look on his face.

"Well, you never bothered to introduce yourself." I checked my nails, unbothered.

The man scoffed and he pinned me against the wall as the platform stopped moving. I could feel his warm breath against my ear as he said, "I am Wriothesley, and I'm your boss. You will do what I say and with respect. Now is that understood?".

I was as silent as a Dendro slime hiding from a hunter, but my face was red as I realized what was going on, and the fact that a guard was looking at me and Wriothesley. I looked at him in fear and I said "Y-Yes, Your Grace...".

Wriothesley let me go and we both walked together to the reception desk, leaving the guard watching us, confused but smiling knowing that when she's on break she has tea to spill.

Me and Wriothesley walked to the reception desk slowly, as my body shakes nervously, but mostly in fear knowing that the man I am currently walking with is none other than my boss. I glanced at him, wondering why he has so many scars on his body. But, thats a question I should be asking later.

We made it, and I looked around. Where was the receptionist...??

"Ahem, your grace... Are you sure this is the place? Theres no.. receptionist.."

"Ah, right, I forgot, Monglane is on one of the other floors." He said, scratching the back of his neck as he realizes his mistake.

"Well, uh, let's hurry then." I said, already tired of all the walking.

"Heh, tired already? Are you sure you got hired as a special force guard?" Wriothesley chuckled.

"Ugh, I had enough of his, attitude. He thinks he's everything", I thought to myself.

I left Wriothesley behind and I went to the elevator, pressing the button. Wriothesley made it in time and got in.

"So... Where you from, cute stuff?" He smirked, as if trying to tempt me yet enlighten me at the same time.

"From Mondstadt, why do you ask..?" I said, looking away.

"Ah nothin', just wondering." He said as he looked out the window of the elevator, as it made its stop. The door's opened, and we exited the elevator.

"Come, theres something we must do before you start your work here."

"Oh, alright!" I said as I followed Wriothesley, looking around as I saw, the underworld.
