Forgive And Forget (Merlin BBC Fanfic)

The Unforgivable

Kyra sat shivering in the cell, Gwen leant back against the wall beside her, the walls dripped with condensation adding to the chill. 

Kyra could feel Gwen shaking next to her and took hold of her hand and squeezed it, she squeezed back and tried to smile reassuringly in an older sisterly way . kyra felt tears threatening to spill out of her eyes . For the first time since the night her parents had died, She felt young and helpless and she did not like it at all .

"what's going to happen to us ?" She asked quietly .

"oh i'm sure we'll be fine , don't worry " Gwen said with an uncertain edge to her voice .

Just then Lancelot and a guard came into the cell . Lancelot nodded and the guard grabbed Gwen and pulled her up .

"Gwen ? " Kyra said terrified as the guard pulled the queen towards the door . 

"GWEN!" She cried as the guard pulled her out of sight , Kyra heard her struggling and then call back "don't worry , its alright !" 

Lancelot came toward her slowly , She scrambled backwards on the thin bed, her eyes following him warily, he sighed and rolled his sleeves up before he stroked her face with the back of his hand making her flinch away. A dark look passed over his face fleetingly, 

"I always thought you were beautiful, from the moment i first saw you, wild and free in the woods" He said softly as he ran a hand over her hair, pausing as his hand reached the back of her neck. She eyed him nervously from the corner of her eye as he stared thoughtfully, "And then Leon tamed you, he took away your wildness, kept you caged" Lancelot continued, his dark eyes watching the side of her face as he leaned in closer. Kyra's breath hitched as she tried to move away from him, his hand clamped around the back of her neck and held her tightly. "I can set you free, make you wild again" he murmured in her ear sending a sick chill down her spine. She glared at him fiercely from the corner of her eye, " Go fuck yourself" she spat, Lancelot snarled and tightened his grip on her neck, his fingers digging into her flesh painfully. 

"Maybe you do need to be tamed, a wild animal has no place in Camelot" he whispered before forcing her face down into the bed, she struggled against him, kicking her legs free. He clamped her legs together with his knees and wrenched her arms behind her back as he fumbled with her skirts, ripping them in his frustration. Kyra sobbed in desperation as she struggled in vain, her magic failing her in her panicked state. She heard the unmistakable sound of a belt unbuckling and she screamed for Leon as she tried to wriggle out of Lancelot's grip.

" He can't help you now sweetheart" He muttered in Kyra's ear with a dark chuckle, She screamed again as he laid on top of her, his weight pinning her wrists behind her back painfully, he pried her legs apart with his knee as she lay helplessly, screaming for help. The pain was excruciating as she writhed desperately trying to escape.

Lancelot gripped Kyra's hair tightly, pulling her head back as she wept hopelessly, She managed to extricate one arm and spun scratching his face violently and calling him every name under the sun. He forced her face back into the bed harshly and put all of his weight back on her arms as he continued. She screamed in pain once more before she fell silent, choking in her sobs as he grunted behind her. Soon he fell off her with a tired grunt and sat there breathing heavily as she lay there silently, she finally moved and sat up slowly, feeling the wetness on her legs, she wiped it with her hand and saw blood. Her hands shook as she stared at it numbly, her tears plastered her hair to her face but she paid no heed. Lancelot smirked down at her as he buckled his belt breathlessly. "The wildcat is finally silent, nothing to say ?" he sneered as he sat down next to her and smoothed her hair off her face, "you're mine now wildcat, you will be tamed and you will be mine" he chuckled, Kyra felt the tears falling down her face but made no move to wipe them away as she stared absently ahead of her. " I'll make sure that Leon gets what he deserves, after all, he has nothing now" Lancelot murmured as he gripped her chin and made her look at him, her eyes snapped onto his and she slapped him with all her strength sending him sprawling backwards as she sprinted to the cell door tearing at the handle desperately willing it to open, she noticed him getting up out of the corner of her eye and she sobbed in panic. 

Lancelot grabbed Kyra and threw her against the wall with a savage grunt of anger, she gasped as the air was forced out of her lungs and her ribs creaked in protest. She could feel the bruising already but she pulled herself upright and glared at him with a wild look in her eyes, he grinned darkly, " there's that wildness again" Her eyes darted to the door behind him as a guard opened it to see what the commotion was, she sped towards the open door but he grabbed hold of her dress, ripping the shoulder as she struggled, she turned to pull him off her only to receive a fist to the face. Her vision went dark with scattered stars as she reeled from the punch, Lancelot dragged her by the hair away from the door and threw her on the floor with a disgusted noise before kicking her as she tried to crawl back to the door, every time she moved he kicked at her and rained down punch after punch as she tried to block them feebly. He stopped, panting heavily and pushed his hair out of his face, " you will be tamed" he said breathlessly before stepping over her battered body and picking up his cloak from the bed before leaving the cell.
