My Beloved Monster (Yandere!prince x peasant!reader)

Chapter 7, Knights

Up ahead of you was the room filled with dungeons that was filled with the smell of rotten flesh and disgusting rats that would run across the floor, forcing you to jolt back a couple of times.
   Refusing to let a smelly rat stop you from taking a step closer, you started to wonder what he was hiding. When you came a few feet away from the chamber to the right of you. You stood still when hearing a light sob. Turning you head to look, you only saw a woman who was covering her face by by her hair and hands. But you noticed that she wasn't alone. There were dozens of other people along side her just staring down at the floor.
    You wanted ask if they were okay, but something told you not to. At least not now.
   Something with superhuman strength latched hold of your arm and pulled you back, making you stumbled across the floor.
"Oi, get out of here you scum," you looked up to be greeted by a strong knight stand several inches before you with his grey orbs peering down into your startled little (e/c) ones. You were mesmerized at his loose waves of green hair that reached down to his shoulder. "Hello M'lady, I was not expecting to have  you." He smirked. "Do forgive me."
    "Don't push me, I am officially rank higher than all of you Knights." You spatted out to the knight, wanting test how far you can go with this, but in result was the laughter of a man who already had a high enough ego.
   "You poor thing, let me help you up." He reached down to grab your hand to pull you up from the ground which you refused quickly at first. "M'lady, you know you shouldn't be here."
"I know."
The knight kindly shook his head at you  before pulling you along behind him. "You must leave."
    You struggled to have him release your arm with a glare, "but I can't leave yet, please sir! I have to know!" His grey eyes widen at you, never have he never seen a royal beg. You soon scolded yourself for switching back to that defenseless servant.
    He looked down to have his green hair cover his face, suddenly he released you. "Fine, but make it quick."
   You smiled at the tall boy and said "thank you," before you got up and walked to the dungeon that held the weeping woman.
   "Hello?"
   "(Y/n)? Is that you?" Said a familiar voice.
   "Mother?!" You ran towards the bars that separated the two of you.
   "Mother what happened, are you okay?!" You looked at your mothers cold dead eyes that had little to no life that once filled with love.
"At the coronation when we all were being served those drinks, the ones that only the king allowed us to drink had rat poison in it." Your eyes widen with disbelief, but she keep going. You listen very closely to what your mother was indeed informing you. "Our hearts stopped which gave him the time to luck us up but we woke up soon after and found us all in the dungeons."
Then a old male who looked to be in his. Sixties stood up to look dead into your eyes then replied with a raspy voice, "he said that we all were in his way and that's why he locked us up but we still don't understand why."

   Your mother turned her head back facing you with a sad frown. "Sweetie, you need to get out of here, don't worry about me, just leave." Your mother grabbed hold of your hand from the other side.
   "I-I promise I'll help you escape and we can run away together mother. I promise." Doubt filled your mind because you didn't know how you can escape.
   Soon two pairs of arms wrapped around your tinny waist to be picked up bridal style, "times up." Said the knight.
   Your mouth gapped open but soon your closed your mouth while glare at him. "Let go of me!" You ordered.
   He clutched you closer to his torso to make it harder for you to fight, "I can't, unless you want your beloved mother dead." He stopped in the middle of the entrance to look down at you with his grey eyes filled with pity. "I'll set you down if you promise to leave all this behind."
     You thought for a moment but nodded your head to be let down to your feet. "My mom will be okay, correct?" You demanded but causing the taller man to sigh.
    "I'll try."
A smiled crept your face but soon faded, "tell me your name."
    "My name~?"
   "Yes, tell me your name." A wave of shock appeared on his face.
    Soon he answered when he first stood up straight. "Maxwell Coshe." 
   "Alright Maxwell, I'll take your word for it." You glared at the man but only because he was working under your future husband, you can't trust him nor will you but you just had to get out of here and him being double your size means that it will not be easy rescuing your mother.
   "Who the hell is this?!" Shot out a huge booming voice that made you turn around to see a scary looking man who had fiery bright hazel eyes that flared down at both you and Maxwell. He also has a buzzed cut hair with a goat beard that curled up at the end.
   "I don't know sir, but can you please escort the Mistress to her room." Maxwell lied, obviously because he seemed to be scared of the older man who showed his dominance with ease.
   He looked down at you before looking back at Maxwell. "What's her name?!" He yelled.
   "(Y/n (l/n)," you answered up at him.
   The huge man arched his eyebrow before returning to his normal expression. Soon he grabbed hold of your arm and dragged you behind him up to your room.

   When you came across your room, he slammed open the door and threw you in. You fell onto the floor with an oof. 
     "Don't you ever come down there again!" He stomped his way towards you, stopping in front of you as you began to bring yourself to your feet but his foot made contact with your stomach. The pain spread through your body, making you go numb. "Stupid bitch! You are lower than me by birth, how the fuck did you suddenly became higher rank than me?!" He sniffles his nose and gathered up a huge spit that formed in his mouth, you looked down at the floor to just wait for it to stop since your mother had always told you to just take the blow, it's easier than fighting something you can't win.
   A bullet of slim spatted on  at the top of your head before you heard the tapping of his feet slowly walk away until he halted to a stop again.
    You looking to over your shoulder, you saw Adrien standing in the door way. He was clutching his fist and his eyes turned deadly. Soon he grabbed onto the closest thing to him. Picking up a vase that had beautiful wild flowers painted all over to be thrown at the knight. Shattering onto his head as he tumbled a few feet back. You just watched the seen unfold in front of your eyes. You watched Adrien swiftly run towards him, punching the tall male in the face and pulling his weight on top of him like a animal. Both males fall to the floor but all hell broke loose when you heard the laughter of pure insanity coming off of Adrien. "Don't you ever touch her!" He grabbed a shard of glass to have a couple of blood drip down Adrien's beautiful skin. Pulling his hand high in the air before falling down to have the flash shard colliding into the other males eye.
    Painful screams pierced your ears to have you cover them to help muffle them out. Once Adrien got off the knight, he watched him cupped his eye that had blood seep through his hand.
    Next thing you new was that Adrien grabbed the sword that was owned by the knight had now appeared in the hands of his profound murderer.
   The beautiful sword that was definitely made out of gems and pure silver pierced into the knight chest, the knight grabbed hold of the sword and tried pulling it out to only have it reach in deeper.
    He was now dead, leaving only you and Adrien next to the corpse.
   You sat there to have your body scared still and eyes widen at Adrien who started walking closer to you.
   He kneeled down and cupped your face, "it seems we both need a bath. I'm covered in filth and you have his slobber dripped all over you." A smile soon appeared back into the purple eyed man. "Let's take a bath together."
   A blushed formed your face but you soon remembered that he was sick... Mentally sick.
