Storming the Castle (Vylad x Reader) Part 1

You, Princess Y/N of the Gryffinfire Kingdom, had decided to run away.

Irene only knew how long you'd been locked in that room. It was all the talk of the kingdom when you'd first been imprisoned there. Apparently, your parents believed you were too precious and beautiful for the world and needed to be 'protected'. It didn't take a genius to figure out that you were anything but precious.

You thought you were quite the riot, personally.

Sneaking out had become a regular thing or you at this point, but it was all performed in well-planned ways. You were good friends with most of the servants. You could pick a lock. You had flirted your way out with the guards. The list could go on and on. But this time, you couldn't use any of those.

Your parents had  found out about your 'foolish and dangerous' outings to the outside and had taken precautions o the next level. You were moved to the tallest tower and looked in there, with no outside contact other than when you were brought food. There were no openings except for one lone window you could lean out of and look down on the world.

Long story short, life sucked and you were booking it.

You tied as many articles of clothing as you could to create a long enough rope you could rappel down with. It seemed long enough to reach the roof below. You, unfortunately, could not find a grappling hook on such short notice so you figured it would have to do. 

The moment it became dark, the plan was put into action. An old ballgown was fastened around your waist as you grimaced at it, glad you had traded it out for a pair of comfy jeans. That was definitely another thing you wouldn't miss.

After careful calculation and prayers to Irene, you took a deep breath and jumped.

Then screamed because you couldn't remember if you had tied the other end to anything.

"IRENE PLEASE I DON'T WANT TO DI-"

The breath was knocked out of you as the makeshift rope around your waist tightened and  you were left hanging in the air. Slowly, your eyes opened and you let out a sigh of relief.

"Thank Irene, hallelujah, praise Enika, bless Memphia!" You cried out quietly.

Now all you had to do was figure out how to get down. Loosening the rags from your waist, you tried to squirm out of the ties. Just as the rope finally came loose, a dark figure caught your attention.

Right as you dropped down.

And landed on the dark figure.

You both let out an 'oof' as you collided. Sadly, that wasn't the most painful thing you had done that night. By now, your limbs were screaming for mercy and you thought your body would surely be sore forever.

The person you had landed on shot up, knocking you off them. You slid down the roof and grasped onto the shingles or whatever the heck people made roofs with nowadays, holding on for dear life.

Suddenly, a hand grabbed yours and hoisted you up.

"Okay, there?"

Your eyes meet with a pair of emerald green ones. "I'm alive. Sorry for falling on you."

"No problem. I take it you were going to break into the castle, too?"

Your heart stopped at that statement. "Uhh..."

He chuckled. "Don't worry, I was going to do the same thing."

"Er, yes. Yes, I was," You gave him a fake smile, "So you are?"

"Vylad."

"Hey," Your ears perked at the familiarity of the name, "Isn't there a prince named Vylad?"

He shook his head. "If there is, I've never heard of him."

You shrugged. "I don't remember, your name just sounded familiar. Anyway, my name is...Um... Y/N."

His eyes widened. "Wait! You're Princes-"

"Shh!" You slammed your hand over his mouth as your eyes flickered around for any signs for guards.

He pushed your hand off his face and whisper-shouted back. "What are you doing?!"

"Escaping!"

"Great, let me help you!"

By now, the two of had climbed back up the roof in fear of being spotted. Glancing down, your stomach did a double flip as you realised it was much farther down than you had anticipated. Maybe you should just return to the tower. 

"What?" His words finally registered.

"Let me help you." He repeated.

Things were suddenly looking up.

"Well," You raised your eyebrows, "If you feel like becoming a wanted man, that's up to you. But I would not object the help."

He smirked. "I'm already a wanted man, it wouldn't do much harm."

"Well, that's reassuring."
