Yuri P.O.V

To say I was frantic would be putting it too light.

Y/N had been within Nazarick for over two hours now and he hadn't came and spoke to me, yet. I know it made me sound full of myself but I thought I was his most pressing concern.

He would always run to my side and embrace me whenever he returned from whatever task or errand he was running. It had been hours since I had last seen him and as a result, as embarrassing as it was, I was going through withdrawal. My skin was itchy and riddled with eager goosebumps; my eyes were steady and focused as they skimmed every hallway for a trace of my fox.

I had sent my sister Lupusregina not long after Y/N's return home and I had expected the two of them to return rather swiftly. So, once neither of them returned, I departed our recreational chambers and went to search for Y/N myself.

Y/N and Lupusregina seemed to be getting along so I thought it would be harmless to have Lupusregina pick him up for me but that was clearly a mistake. His retrieval shouldn't have been taking so long so obviously something had gone wrong.

And by 'gone wrong,' I meant: Lupusregina was messing with Y/N's body or mind in a manner most cruel.

I was sure Lupusregina understood my attachment to Y/N so I felt comfortable having her retrieve him for me whilst I prepared his dinner.

I preferred to cook Y/N's meals myself since I couldn't help but be bothered by him eating the dishes of other women. Well, it only bothered me when he complimented the food. I wanted his praise even for something as minuscule as cooking.

I poked my head into Y/N's room after knocking several times and earning no answer. I skimmed the room for any sign of him but not so much as a strand of fluff could be spotted.

What has she done with him?

My thoughts immediately turned negative as I was confident Lupusregina was behind his disappearance. I was concerned for Y/N'a safety, of course, but I also couldn't help but feel my sister was cheating me out of a romantic evening and those bitter feelings kept stirring in my chest.

My search wasn't as lengthy as I was expecting. Almost immediately did I depart for my sister's bedroom, mentally preparing myself for whatever horrific and ungodly scene was to soon be set before my eyes.

My blood boiled as I marched.

I gave Lupusregina my trust and I was beyond furious that she had taken it and spat all over it in order to fulfill her own sadistic desires.

It was beyond frustrating. She could torment any other human, yet, she chose mine to target and prioritized belittling him over any other.

She wasn't just going to get a stern talking to but also a hardy smack to her head for such overwhelming incompetence and lack of restraint.

The moment arrived. I was standing before Lupusregina's door, huffing and puffing so frantically that I was sure I would blow the door down.

"Hello there, Yuri, a pleasure as always,"

A shiver went down my undead spine as a devilish whisper filled my ears.
