"Listen, kid." Eugene started off. Only to be cut off by Varian.

His grip on your waist tightening, "Don't call me a kid, Flynn Rider." Eyes narrowing, as he looked at Rapunzel, Cassandra, and Eugene.

"What did you do to her, Varian?" Rapunzel asked. Her voice filled with fear as Varian's dark eyes starred her down.

He let out a laugh, "What I did to her? Oh, nothing much." Varian puts a hand under you chin, tilting your head to look up at him. He kissed the tip of your nose. You let out a giggle. His smirk returning when he turned back to Rapunzel, "It's called amortentia. It's a powerful love potion, involving chemical compounds that increased her endorphins and dopamines."

He took a glance at their faces. Shock was written all over them. Varian let out a laugh again, confusing the three.

"Oh, you should have seen your faces! Amortentia? Love potion? Oh please! It was all fake! But this..." You looked up at him, leaning down he kisses you. "This is all real."

Cassandra spoke up, "You must have done something! (Y/N) would never do this! Not to Corona!" Her eyes watching Varian carefully.

You turn to her, looking at her up and down. "Oh, he hasn't done anything wrong. But you have! You royals think your needs are far more greater than your people's. What you don't realize is that your people make up your kingdom. No people, no kingdom to rule."

"But why! Why are you doing this!?" Rapunzel's outburst brought all the attention to her.

Putting your arm to rest on Varian shoulder, you ask, "Would you like to answer that, love?"

"Gladly," he replied, pecking your cheek. "You. Rapunzel, need to see the pain and agony. Your whole life has been sunshine and rainbows, you think that you can fix anything! But the moment, it's between you and your subjects, you choose you! It's always you first. You, you, you!" Chuckling, "You are too kind sometimes, Princess. See, where your kindness lead you to now? But, hey. I'm not complaining, you slipped right into our hands."

Eugene quirked an eyebrow, "Our hands?"

"Oh, how rude of us!" You dramatically gasp, putting a hand over your heart. "Lady Caine, if you will."

Varian and you step aside, letting Lady Caine take it from there. As you two walk away, you hear, the rattling of chains. Presuming the men, took Rapunzel, Eugene, and Cassandra to the dungeon.

"Oh! And remember, don't forget to lock up that pesky chameleon too!" Varian yelled over his shoulder. The men nodded, throwing Pascal in a cage of his own.

Varian and you return to Lady Caine's ship. There was a place where Varian worked, it was rather spacious. He was working on one of his machines. You were leaning against Varian's back, petting Ruddiger.

"Hey, Varian?" You ask.

He responds with a, "Yeah, (Y/N)?"

"What is Lady Caine gonna do to them? I mean, she's been trying to track them down for awhile. With your help she finally found them." 

Varian sighed. Putting what he was working on down, he turns towards you. Wrapping his arms around you, pulling you closer to him. Your back against his chest. "She'll probably keep them in the dungeons. Feed them scarcely, make sure they're there, and soon, take over the throne. Using the princess as bait."

You look up to see him, resting your head on his shoulder. "Okay. Better question, what are you going to do now? We have them in the dungeons, what's your next move?"

"Honestly? I don't know. I'll most likely use Rapunzel's hair for experiments. Her healing properties are gone, but that doesn't mean that there aren't still things to discover. Maybe it might make a new element, and an even deadlier one this time." His voice sparked with joy.

You kiss his neck, murmuring. "You're adorable."

He chuckles a bit, kissing you on the lips. You lay there with him, making out. You slip your tongue into his mouth, moving together. Your tongue dancing with one another, exploring each other.

There was a knock at the door. You and Varian pull apart. "Come in."

It was one of Lady Caine's men. "Rapunzel's asking to see you."

Varian looks at you. From the looks of your eyes, he already knows what to say.

"Tell her no."
