Overlord fun time!

Overlords X human reader (part 1)

I hold the knife at an angle making it glint in the candle light. My grip strengthened on the blade as I slowly pushed it into my flesh. I sighed the cutting it just made it all go away. I ran the blade across my arm leaving a trail of blood behind it.

I lifted the blade and admired my work. Deep scars covered my arms and legs leaving no room for new cuts. I put the knife aside and watched as the blood leaked out of the cuts. It dripped off my arm and onto the floor leaving a puddle.

I blew out the candles and walked back up the stairs. I quietly shut the basement door as to not alert my mother. I tiptoed down the hall and crawled into my bed. I turned off the light and sat in the darkness blood soaking my mattress. 

I close my eyes letting myself fall into the darkness besides I have a very busy day tomorrow!

~~~~~~Time skip to the next morning~~~~~~~~~

I awoke with a start breathing heavily what a nightmare. I rub my eyes trying to rid them of the blurriness. I stretch and lean over the edge of my bed finding my slippers and sliding them onto my feet. 

I walk out of my room floor boards creaking a bit. 

"Mom?" I called "What's for breakfast?"

No reply. I shrug and walk into her bedroom. I pull the sheets off her body to reveal it mangled and torn to shreds. I stood there in shock feeling as if I had gotten hit on the face with a million pounds.

I hold my hands to my mouth holding in a scream. Tears streamed out of my bloodshot eyes. I turn and dash out of the room. I couldn't take this. I ran into my room and slammed the door making the house rattle. 

I walk across the room and fling open the closet and grab my outfit I had to leave.

My brain hurling so many horrible thoughts at me as I rushed downstairs to get my knife. I went to retrieve my weapon only to find all of my blood gone from the night before. I took a closer look and it seemed to be licked away as some of the marks were still there.

I put my knife in my back pocket and retreat back up stairs as quickly as possible. If there was even the slightest chance that whatever killed my mother was still here I wasn't going to take it.

I ran out of the house slamming the door behind me. I stopped at the end of the sidewalk and looked back at my childhood home. 

I sigh and continue running through the dark woods wind brushing my cheeks and ruffling my hair. I feel a sense of freedom as I dash through the woods legs pumping my breath coming in short gasps. 

The rustling of the leaves on the wind the smell of pine and birch calling my deeper, beckoning me. The sting of my cuts still giving me pleasure. I sit down leaning my head against a tree gasping for breath. 

I sat a moment trying to collect my thoughts as I played with my dagger slowly tossing it from hand to hand. 

~~~~??????? POV~~~~~~~

I watched the girl in interest as she played with her knife stocking her like my prey. I slowly crept closer to make sure I didn't startle her. As I got closer I noticed longs cuts along her legs many looking fresh. 

I cock my head and watch in delight as she stands up and begins walking again. She was in my playing field now. I had the upper hand.

~~~~~(Y/N) POV~~~~~~

I feel another presence as I slowly walk into the woods the uneasy feeling when your stomach turns in not's. I let my gaze pass around the area searching for someone or something. finding nothing I cautiously walk deeper into the forest. 

The feeling doesn't go away and I was starting to get nervous. Every crack of a twig and bird twitter sent me off kilter. Maybe I should just be done for today. I think. Now to find a place to sleep. I scan my surroundings until something stops my gaze.

There seemed to be a shadow of a man watching me. I held my breath and slid my hand into my pocket grasping at my knife. The man seeing that I spotted him took a step out of the shadows. he had brown hair and green eyes but the unnerving part was the smile stretched across his face.

I take a step back only to trip and tumble to the ground. The man takes a few steps forward and hold's his hand out to me.

"The name is Alastor dear" 

I cautiously reached my hand out and took his. He yanked me up and twirled me around.

"What is a darling like you doing in the woods at this hour?" He asks

I look down"It's complicated." 

"Ah" he says winking at me"I understand"

He links arms with me and begins dragging me into the forest.

"Well you must stay with me! I have lot's of space for beautiful dears like you!"

I blush a bit as he drags me into an unknown expanse of land.

"The game is set stay tuned darlings"
