The Masked Doll (Damian Wayne x reader)

Chapter 14

To say that I was shocked by the big revelation would be an understatement. I was living with the Wayne family.

I tried to suppress any sign of my shock but I thought Robin – or should I say Damian – could read right through me.

After the little show, I was able to follow them out of the Batcave through a hidden passage in the rock of the cave. We reached an elevator. We had to be standing really close to each other when the lift began to go up. I felt the warm breath of Damian on the nap of my neck.

When the doors of the lift finally opened, I found myself in a huge library. A sound behind me made me turn around to see the lift's doors being hidden by a big old clock.

I walked to a French window to see a big garden with beautiful trees and fountains. It was night and I could see the moonlight shimmering on the water fountain. I was in the Wayne's manor. I suppress the need to squeal. When Jessy and I were younger, our parents told us about the Wayne's manor, describing it as the most beautiful place of Gotham. My sister and I always dreamed to come here to see with our own eyes. Looking through the French window, I promised to myself to bring Jessy here when I would find her.

They led me to a dining room with a red wine carpet floor, and walls covered by paintings, lighted by golden candelabrum (A/N: I learned that word today and I find it nice). There were a big oak dining table with chairs. We seated, Damian and I in front of each other and Bruce on our right. I was looking at the paintings in silence when a man in a black suit entered in the room with a trolley where steaming food were placed.

"Let me to introduce you to the soul of this manor" Bruce said with a smile – which seemed to be a rare thing on his face.

"Alfred, this is Y/N L/N, Jessy's sister. She is going to stay with us for a while."

Alfred made a little bow in my direction. "Welcome Miss Y/N."

"Y/N, Alfred is our butler and our friend."

"Nice to meet you sir" I said with a little bow of my head.

We ate in silence then Damian offered to show me around before going to bed. I accepted and followed him in the maze of hallways and rooms the manor offered. I was amazed by its beauty.

Then we parted to go to bed. Alfred had prepared a room for me and I went to sleep quickly.

The next day Damian and I went to Gotham's mall to find me a dress for the bal. I was in the fitting room, Damian waiting for me on the other side of the curtain. I was trying to reach for the zipper of a black dress I had put on. It was in the middle of my back and was supposed to go all the way up to my neck. After fighting with the zipper for a good ten-minute, I gave up, sighing.

With burning cheeks, I took a glance behind the curtain to see Damian waiting patiently on a couch. I cleared my throat awkwardly. He looked up and rose an eyebrow.

"Is everything alright?" he asked.

"I ... Well, I have some trouble to zip my dress, ... could you ... could you just help me please?"

His lips parted, as if he wanted to state something but he closed them quickly.

"Of course."

He walked to the curtain and I let him enter the fitting room. We found ourselves in an awkward position, face to face, me almost pressed against the big mirror. The fitting room was quite small so our bodies were closed. I could feel the heat radiating from his body. Looking down to hide my blush, I turned around. He took the zipper and fastened the dress, his fingers brushing my skin in the process.

"There you go." he whispered.

I looked up and I crossed his gaze in the mirror. His cheeks were a bit red.

"Thanks" I breathed.

We stayed like this for a moment, our eyes locked into each other in the mirror. Slowly, his hand brushed my left arm, giving me goose-bump. His warm breath was comforting. His hand went down and touched my fingers. I hold my breath. Almost instinctively, my own hand went for his and our fingers intertwined. I leaned subconsciously against his chest and with other hand wrapped itself around my waist, pressing my body against his. He buried his face in the crook of my neck, his lips brushing my skin. I squeezed his hand to show that it was okay. As soon as he understood, his lips kissed the crook of my neck to the skin behind my ear. I turned around, and our lips crashed into each other. It was sweet at first but it became deeper. My hands went to his hair as his owns were on my hips. He took a step and my body was pressed against the mirror. As we kept kissing, one of his hand went to my tight, grabbing it while the other hold us against the mirror. But in the process his elbow knocked off some dresses which fell on the ground.

"Is everything is alright in there?" A voice asked worried, in the other side of the curtain.

I pushed Damian and peek from behind the curtain, short breath and pink cheeks. A shop assistant was behind. I smiled awkwardly at him.

"Yes, everything okay. I just made some dresses fall. I such a clumsy person."I said with a fake laugh.

I waited for him to turn back to shove Damian out of the dressing room. He chuckled behind the curtain as I took my head between my hands, embarrassed by what just happened.

"Don't you need help to pull down the zipper?" Damian's voice said.

I groaned.

"Shut up Damian!"

Hello dear reader 

I hope you like this new chapter. To be honest with you, I have planned the entire story and at first it was supposed to be a 20-chapter story. But it's already the fourteenth chapter and on my original plan it supposed to be the eleventh one. So it will be longer. Hope you're up for it !

And another funny fact about this particular chapter: it wasn't plan, like at all so enjoy a bit of Damianxreader moment ^^ It's totally cliché but we love cliché, don't we ? 

Anyways, I hope you're taking care of yourself. With what happened with the Covid-19, French universities are closed starting from Monday for at least fifteen days. And in fifteen days, my classes are supposed to end because I have a internship so I'll have to move out again and go to Paris from April to June. In those fifteen days I was supposed to have exams for my second semester but they don't know yet how we will be able to do them. 

 Take care and have a nice day :)
