(Y/N)'s POV
I awoke slowly, surrounded by complete darkness. The silence was unbearable, and I couldn't breathe.
Well, would you look at that? You died before Beacon fell... Idiot
""You again... what's going on?" I managed to whisper.
You belong to me now...
"W-who are...you?"
My name, is Salem, but you can address me as "your highness" .
"I... remember falling? H-how am I...alive?"
You're not... but we can change that if you so desire. For a price, of course.
"W-what price?"
You'll owe me one favor, in which you will be physically incapable of resisting once I ask it of you.
"Promise me.... I w-won't hurt anyone."
You're not exactly in a position to ask that of me, boy... now, do you want to live...?
I felt excruciating pain in my chest, like my heart was being crushed by an unseen claw.
Or do you want to feel this for eternity?
"L-live... We have a deal!"
Good....
