Cold air brushed against your skin, causing you to wake up from your slumber. You slowly opened your eyes to see where you were. Your eyes were fully open when you noticed being in an unfamiliar room.

The room was dark. The only source of light was the morning sun beaming through a gated window near the ceiling and a small candle on a tiny table on the opposite side of the room. Grey and black were the dominant colors visible. It almost seemed like a small dungeon.

You realized you were laying down on the grey, dusty floor with nothing but a single blanket and a thin pillow. Back pain helped to realize it.

You sat up. When you tried to stretch, a rope tied around each of your wrists stopping you from doing so.

'Where am I?'

You pulled on the rope, trying to get free. It didn't work, so you tried standing and yanking on the rope at the same time. That didn't work either. You angrily sat back on the ground.

Your trousers were all dirty and your boots were caked in dirt. You took off your boots with your feet and felt a little better.

You still continued to pull on the rope, hoping it would get more loose. You stopped when you heard the door begin to unlock.

A person walked in. He wore the same cloak the other two people who kidnaped you did, except this person was a bit shorter. He turned to your direction and revealed himself by slowly taking off the hood and the rest of the cloak with it.

"Who are you?" You asked the person.

The male laughed a bit and threw the cloak near you. "My dear (Y/N). Time can change how a person looks, doesn't it? I guess I changed, then." He laughed again. "How can you not remember me?"

You shook your head. "I don't know you."

He stepped closer. "Really? Well, I'll give you a hint: I'm part royalty."

It took a while to process, but soon enough, you realized it was none other than Robert. "Why are you here? And why do you have me here?"

Robert laughed again.

His image had changed a lot. His dark brown hair was past his ears and was going in all different directions and it looked musty, instead of it being neat and tidy. His blue eyes stayed the same, but underneath they had dark circles. All of his teeth had gotten yellow and almost to the point of rotting.

"I can't answer your questions. I can tell you that you won't be staying here for a long time because we are leaving soon." Robert said.

"Leaving?"

Robert gave a creepy smile, exposing his unsightly teeth. "We will live together! We will get married and have two, no, six children!"

You slowly backed away closer to the wall. "You're sick. I won't go. You know you can't force love, Robert."

Robert stopped smiling. "Yes you will. You will learn to love me. I can do better than that Ciel guy. So much better. You will agree. If you don't, well... let's just say that you won't find the consequences very good."

"What are the consequences?" You asked.

"I will kill off Ciel and everyone in his home, along with you. One of my helpers will kill you after he has made you into a doll I have all to myself to fulfill my needs." Robert said. He went outside the door and brought in a tray with what looked like oatmeal and a glass of water. "Eat up, my future wife. I'll only untie you to eat and for using the bathroom, got it?"

You nodded silently in agreement.

He bent down and untied your hands. He gave you a quick peck on your cheek and left the room. "I'll be back in a few minutes to tie you back up again, so don't try anything because I have this place fully guarded." He locked the door behind him and finally left you alone.
