Of Woes and Shadows (Wednesday x reader)

Chapter 20: Stakes through the heart

Long chapter! 

Wednesday's POV:

The past few days have been painful in a unpleasure way for Wednesday. People have been buzzing like mosquitos on a dead body about the Rave'N. The buzzing was so loud that she couldn't hear herself think not even in her room because that damn event was the only word she knew for the whole week!

To make matters worse, 2 days ago- Wednesday (ironically) the buzzing just got louder to the point her ears felt like they were about to bleed. The topic connected to the dance bit her and suck the little peace she had. The topic was none other than the fact Crown Prince Dimitri of the werewolf clan was going to attend.

Theories on who his date could be was the main topic. There were few candidates but the only ones that made any sense was your best friend, Bianca, or you. You were the main suspect. And that drained the life out of her because it made sense! You were an Earl and he was a Prince- both of you hold high positions of power and both species had a close relationship. A powerful alliance so of course you probably knew him.

What I would give if it was Bianca or Enid who had your title instead she would think during lunch as she sat next to you under the glare and snarky remarks of some of your friends and classmates. At least Enid helped calm the water a bit while you would send glares to your men.

There in the lunch room the buzzing was the loudest. There she saw the bulletproof mask you wore for the public and enemies. A mask you began to wear around her ever since the day she began to cut ties with you.

Each time she saw those Y/E/C look at her as if she was one of your subjects that needed lies to be comforted it felt like a stake being nailed into her. Each breath she took, it sunk a inch deeper.

No one said this would be easy, she would tell herself. Yet, sleepless nights typing away a possibility she desired but was rejecting it proved what her mother said when she arrived to Nevermore- she always got in her own way.

The only place she could find peace from the buzzing and the sting in her heart was only in Eugene's bee keeper's house for Enid wouldn't shut up about it.

There, the buzzing of the bees sounded like static, no connection to the outside world. Her only connection was the world within her mind.... and Eugene's blabbering that reminded her of her little brother Pugsley.

"Wednesday?" said a sickly voice. Whipping her out of the deepness of her world, and back to the border of it where she could see reality. The skinny boy's eyes were full of worry. "Are you okay?".

She just nodded and thanked him through riddles that he let her his space to help her continue her investigation. If she was going to cut you off the investigation, then she needed to move her evidence somewhere you wouldn't find it and realize what she was doing.

"No worries! Mi colmena es su colmena!" Eugene laughed, pushing up his glasses. His closed eyes mirrored his wide smile.

If she was still 100% trapped in her old ways she would've rolled her eyes at him for saying such a cheesy thing but thanks to you she was now fighting the urge to smile at the curly haired cheery boy.

"Come Euguene we're going to be late to class." she said grabbing his arm. Similar to you, he followed happily. But unlike you, she didn't feel like she had an actual conversation with him.

Why does everything have to remind me of you Y/N!? She thinks for the billionth time today which would make it the septillion time in the entire week. Sadly that thought kept getting spammed in class as Ms. Thornhill taught about plants tricking insects with sexual trickery and deciption. It made her not only think about her masturbating on your gun in the morgue but how she may be leading you to your death or worse- you becoming a mindless puppet to one of your demons.
