Lucio

Well here is some more creepy lucio for you..because it is fun, and it’s almost halloween so yee.

You were just finishing your chores of doing the dishes, since portia was off for having a fever. You were pretty much the only one in the palace, when you mean by that, is that everyone is asleep and cozy in their beds. Mostly because you’ve been reading those scary ghost stories. You definitely believed in ghosts, mostly because of the job you were in, so of course you had to believe in the spiritual activity. You decided to take a break from cleaning and have a short walk around the place, just to get to know more about the palace. “This place is so damn huge!” you chuckled, your voice echoed down the empty dark hallways. Your bare feet left a slight pit pat within every step as you ran outside to the garden.

The full moon gleamed within the starry night sky, creating a soft, silver light upon the ground. Sounds of midnight crickets could be heard singing into the quiet lonely night, along with the soft silky sound of water from the fountain. “So pretty out here at night…” you sighed and sat at the cold stone rim of the fountain. You turned to your side to look at you distorted reflection, and paused to see another figure behind you, you gasped and jumped up from your sitting position and bumped into as cold body. “Woah...easy, no need to be afraid…” he gently rubbed your shoulder comfortingly. His touch will be calming if his hands were not stone cold. “U-uh...Who...who are you?” you stepped back, the back of your legs met the rim of the fountain. “I am friend...my name, does not matter my dear.” he stepped closer to you, his crimson red orbs looking at you up and down. “What might your name be?” he grinned, it was charming yet left an eerie chill up your spine. “Why would i tell you my name….if you aren’t gonna tell me yours?” you raised a brow, trying to stay away from the mysterious man. “Touche my dear…” he chuckled, which was cold and sharp, which left a trace of warmth. “My name is lucio….” he bowed, gently placing a hand on his chest. “And you are…?” he trailed off, leaning up to his original stance. You still didn’t trust this guy, but you couldn’t help but trust him alittle bit. “(Y/N)...” you said blankly, and smiled slightly. “Well...guess we are not strangers anymore…” he sat down on a bench that lied next to a pond and patted the spot next to him. You shrugged and hesitantly sat next to him, he seemed trustworthy enough.

You two talked away, he talked about how he was trapped and felt lonely, you felt sympathy for him, but he still left an eerie vibe...but you still had that feeling that you could trust him, his touch got warmer and more...real as you began to know him more. “Do you like to dance?” he asked, grinning slightly as he stood up, holding out a slender hand. You shook your head “i don’t know how to dance...really…” you murmured, blushing. “Well then, i could teach you, just stand on my feet.” he cracked that grin, that left a chilling feeling. You gently took his hand and gasped to feel him lift you on your feet, you were standing on his. “So...all you have to do is just...follow my lead.” he grinned and began to walk back and forth in a rhythmic beat. He swinged you back and forth, you started to enjoy yourself and wrap you arms arms around his waist, his around yours. It was as if the world didn’t matter, it was just you and lucio. You rested your ear against his chest and felt your blood run cold, your heart sunk.

He had no heartbeat

You started to act natural, to show that you didn't find anything out, but you couldn’t help that you got stiff and look pale from your little discovery. “What is wrong my dear?” he paused and looked down at you with an innocent questionable expression. “uhm...N-nothing...i’m uh...just getting tired.” you yawned. “You can’t hide it my dear…” he held you close to him by wrapping an arm around you waist. “I can smell your fear…” he whispered into your ear, leaving definite chills down your spine. “I just don’t want to be alone anymore...and trapped.” he grinned slyly, pinning you to the stone wall.he sank his teeth into your neck, you  felt a burning sensation where he bit you, trail could be seen leaking on the corner of his lip. You were left with whimpering, with small tears welling up at the corner of your eyes. “NO one...seemed to notice me...so then i found you!” he grinned, cupping the side of your face with his hand kissing your tears away. You flinched at his touch, you were to shocked to do or say anything, frozen in fear. “So now...you will stay with me… forever..” he licked the rim of your ear his voice echoey. He began to leave a trail of kisses to your lips till he locked his lips with yours. His lips were ice cold. He pulled you deeper into the kiss, but you just pushed him away. “P-please...no…” you panted and stepped back.

“I’m sorry my dear...but your fate is already sealed…”
