Beyond the Awakening // Kylo Ren x Reader

Chapter 2

"How weird." You said as you sat yourself on your bed.

Kylo lays his helmet on the nightstand. "What?"

"I just cannot seem to get used to not being on firm ground." You complained.

"We have only been on The Finalizer for a couple of weeks." He chuckled. "You have to give it some time."

You let out a prolonged sigh. "Yes but after living on The Supremacy my whole life, you would think it would be an easy transition."

Kylo crouches down in front of you, taking your hand.

"Is there such thing as getting space sick?" You asked, intertwining your fingers in between his. 

"I think maybe you're just homesick, missing our actual quarters at the base perhaps?" Kylo suggested.

"As long as you're with me it's impossible to get homesick."

You scrunch your nose at your own corny words but Kylo's face lights up as he picks up your hand to press a kiss against your knuckles.

"I wish I could join you in interrogating Dameron." You pouted.

Kylo looks up at you, his eyebrows pulled together. "Well why can't you?"

"I still have to make that political visit to Zuundar." You said, keeping the frown on your face.

"I still can't believe Snoke is willing to negotiate with a king like him." He scoffed.

"Kylo, we're lucky to have him even consider aligning his planet with The First Order. He has a kingdom full of riches- credits that we need to continue funding our cause, ships that we can make into our own."

"I know that but I just don't understand why Snoke needs to always send you to do his political bidding." Kylo muttered, standing to his full height.

"Have you seen how many planets I have persuaded to join us?" You raise your eyebrows, standing along with him. "All I have to do is make them see how inefficient it is to have a decentralized government and of course sprinkle a little fear, add a dash of comfort from our part and just like that they desire to return to a system led by a single strong ruler."

"One by one.." you drag your finger up his bicep and then his shoulder, making your way to the nape of his neck and grabbing him there. "I make them bow before us."

You create a hunger in Kylo's eyes as he looks down at you. "If that's how you talk about politics, I'm going to have to oppose you meeting with that king."

You let out a breathless laugh. "No its just- I feel like we're so close to finally ending this war and it's sparking this thirsty ambition in me."

"I like it.." he said, nearing his lips down to yours as he moved to grip your waist with his hands and forcibly presses your body against his.

The end of your nose brushes against his cheek as he continues to stare at you with a lustful fire in his eyes until a knock at the door, causes Kylo to clamp his eyes shut in frustration and pulls away from you, leaving you yearning with parted lips that had been ready to meet his.

"What is it?" He shouted while you rolled your eyes to look at the ceiling.

"I have just come to inform you that the deathtroopers and the knights have returned from a successful mission." His muffled voice said from behind the door.

"Very well, let my troopers know that we're going to be leaving soon." You jumped in.

"Yes, General." He simply replied before walking away.

You look back towards Kylo. "Let me get Dameron all ready for you before I leave."

"I'm sure he's not going to put up much of a fight anyway. He has a weak mind." He said, reaching over and grabbing his helmet from the nightstand.

"Oh I know I just want to hurt him myself now that I can finally get my hands on him." You admitted.

Kylo gives you one last smile before putting on his helmet. "As you wish."

You both then swiftly glide out of your temporary quarters and continue walking the bleak hallways, towards the interrogation rooms. Turning one corner after another, you were met with Hux waiting outside the room Poe was being held in. He proudly holds his head up high, standing straight as he could in his black uniform and his long coat with his orange hair that was never out of place.

"He's still unconscious from the sleep you put him under." Hux informed you, clasping his gloved hands in front of him as he always does.

"How perfect.. he'll get to wake up to the face of his favorite person." You sarcastically said.

"I don't think now is any time for games." His voice strained to remain calm.

You form an exaggerated pout on your lips. "Aw come on Hux, let me play for a bit."

"She will exhaust him, weaken him so that it will be easier for me to get the information we need when I enter his mind." Kylo said.

You and Kylo both knew he didn't need your help but if what you wanted was your chance to torture Poe, it's what he was going to give you.

Hux takes one last look at your pouting face before he emits a long breath out in defeat. "Fine."

"Appreciate it, Hux!" You squealed as he steps aside for you to pass.

"You know you did not need his approval." Kylo said through his thoughts.

"I know that but I want him to feel respected by us so when the time comes to get rid of Snoke, he will join our side." You replied as you slip on your gloves.

"More like your side. The man will hate me as long as I am with you."

"I hope you will be able to live with his hate forever then." You give him one last smug look before entering the room and sliding the door closed behind you.
