Dark Thorns (Xander x Reader)

Chapter 1 Nohr

"Time to wake up Lady Y/N" Flora's nice voice greeted you which you opened your eyes wide "Hey wake up Lady Y/N" Felicia "Hm what do you mean it's still dark?" You asked "Listen Princess even though it's dark it is truly morning you have training today" Gunter reminded "I've repaired your armor your brother is a strong opponent is he?" Jokob asked "*sigh* I wish I've could of finished my dream though" you triedly said "Is that so we can help with that Felicia will you assist?" Flora asked "Yes sister" they both touched your face only to release icy wind "WAH TOO COLD I'M AWAKE NOW COMPLETELY AWAKE!" You yelled "Don't underestimate me but it's how it goes" Flora said "I know" you replied "So go on tell us the dream" Jakob asked "It was unexpected people I thought were Hoshidans kept calling me "sister" but my real family is here" You explained "Um Lady Y/N can we talk about this another time" Flora broke into the conversation "Good luck out there Lady Y/N" Felicia gave you high hopes and you got up and your 4 retainers followed you to lead you to the training grounds

You tried to find openings but only scratch Xander's armor but Xander then attacked you managed to block the 1st attack but let your guard down only to be struck down "I'm impressed you won't be any stronger by sleeping in Y/N" Leo remarked "Is that all Y/N I expect better than that try again" Xander told you "Xander-" You tried to speak but Xander explained to you why this happens "Father is looking at your progression in strength if you can't beat me you'll never be permitted to leave forever" Xander was angered by this "Wha he really said that THAT'S CRAZY" You said in angered tone "Lets do this then use that anger to best me if you wish to see the world from the view of your window! Lady's first Y/N" Xander was being a gentleman on the battlefield like he was when we were kids "You seem timid you must be strong" Xander spoke you then landed a hit on him but after one hit you were already exhausted "Looks like the wound is bad if that's how it's going to be I CALL ON YOU HEALING TILE" Xander than used the vein "There's a dragon vein here!" You were shocked "You've probably felt it in your veins as it is in all royals use these in your best times of need heal your wounds" Xander told you and moved to the middle of the tile and it automatically healed the 1st step inside "Good your strength should be in order come at me again" Xander asked which you came over and striked another hit on Xander but then again you left an opening "Almost there just one more hit hyah" You finally defeated Xander 1 on 1 "Well done Y/N"

*After the battle*

"Extraordinary Y/N your getting better wielding a sword day by day" Xander congratulated your victory "Thank you Xander I couldn't have done it without your... tough love" You said happily "No you have natural talent one day you could be a great warrior of Nohr" Xander gave a compliment "Now your just teasing" You said "Listen Y/N I never joke I mean what I say you could bring light and peace to our kingdom" Xander announced "Xander..." you couldn't find any words to say until Leo came into the conversation "*sigh* You do know swords aren't the only path to power" Leo explained "Leo he didn't mean-" "Calm yourself Leo your always competitive aren't you" "Nevermind" Leo softly answered "Oh Leo there's something I need to tell you" you asked "What more important to change the subject?" Leo questioned "Well your collar is inside out" you pointed out "!!" Leo was shocked "Looks like someone was still half asleep when getting dressed" Xander smirked "UGH WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY ANYTHING BEFORE!" Leo was embarrassed by this "*laughs* Sorry Leo this is what's very loveable about you" Xander couldn't help himself but laugh "*laughing* Absolutely" you were laughing so much you couldn't talk straight but you looked behind yourself to find your sisters "Oh Y/N Are you hurt let me know so I can take care of you" Camilla motherly offered "I'm in perfect condition Camilla thank you for the offer though" You assured Camilla "I was worried to Y/N!" Elise was jumping up and down with excitement "I know Elise you wouldn't care if you visited me wouldn't you" You said happily "You like when I visit" Elise asked "You know I do I'm not allowed to leave so visits are always welcome" you told Elise "*giggles* Seeing my sister makes me so happy!" Elise then jumped into a hug "I love you so much more than anything in the whole world" Elise said in a very happy tone "*sigh* Elise when will be behave the like the adult you technically are" Leo was annoyed by this "Oh I for one think her attitude is a good thing for this dark kingdom Leo" Camilla said "Everyone is so dear to me you've been patient and kindhearted to me since I lost my memory I don't even mind being isolated when I'm with you all" You told everyone that speech "We're greatful to have you Y/N now I have-" Xander was about to announce but Camilla broke into the conversation "Let me tell her Xander Y/N we have good news father asked all of us to lead you to the capital" Camilla explained "Really can it be?" You asked "Yes your free now" Camilla was happy for you "Isn't GREAT" Elise happily spoke "It is wow... I'm finally leaving this behind I could probably fight alongside you all from now on?" You asked "Now then there are plenty things to discuss with father let us depart" Xander led the way

*Later*

"I'm so happy for you Lady Y/N that you can finally leave the fortress Gunter told me to go with you to look after your horses" Lilth told you in a happy tone "Good to hear I'd miss you so much if you weren't coming" You said with a smile on your face "Lilth are the horses ready?" Xander asked "Yes milord everything is perfect and they seem happy for the trip they are all fond of Lady Y/N in all of her time in the stables" Lilth said in a comforting tone "True Y/N does love animals she even nourished a bird back to full health" Camilla jumped in the conversation "Oh..." Lilth looked pale "Lilth are you alright?" You asked with concern "No it's nothing" Lilth denyed "Heh Y/N she's gonna miss you!" Elise had a smirk on her face while saying this "But she's going with us" you reminded Elise "Right well you've been fond with Y/N haven't you Lilth?" Elise asked "Oh!" Lilth was surprised at this "Listen up we should be on our way we mustn't keep Father waiting" Xander announced "Lets go already!" You were excited to go to the capital again "Flora you and your sister will watch over the fortress me and Jakob will go with Lady Y/N we maybe gone for a while take good care of it" Gunter bowed goodbye to them "Yes you can rely on us" Flora said with a smile "Safe travels Lady Y/N" Felicia wished you luck "Thank you both I hope to see you again in the castle" You waved bye and everyone left to the capital
