Traitor Lord X Reader

Y/N stood quietly at the grave.

White petals bloomed from the green roots that snaked their way up the totem like tomb.

Her daughter.

Her lover.

Him.

Y/N shook her head as more tears slipped out of her eyes. He had... stuck her down... because... she had loved someone... she wasn't supposed to.

Y/N had tried to stop him but then he had looked at her, and his eyes glowed with such a strange and powerful, a dangerous and terrible force that Y/N had let go in shock and he had hit their daughter down.

Y/N had been there when she took her last breath, holding a pale white flower.

And now she was here. At least that monster of a bug had the decency to bury her in a proper way. Y/N scoffed and wrapped her shawl around her tighter and then froze as she felt a large and may she say, infected aura come up behind her.

She looked back slowly and saw him.

As others called him, the Traitor Lord.

And as Y/N used to call him, her husband.

And as all called him, a monster.

He looked at her with that strange orange light in his eyes again Y/N flinched from his brooding stare.

He finally spoke after a bit tho, his voice distorted and scratchy.

"Do you still love me." It didn't even sound like a question. It probably wasn't.

Y/N felt disgust strike in her heart as she looked at the huge mantis. "Never." She said, looking back up at him trying not to show any fear in her eyes.

He stared back down at her. "I'll make you love me then."

Y/N shivered and took a step back towards her daughters grave, clutching and crumbling one of the delicate flowers that sat there.

The Traitor Lord took a step towards her and wrapping his claws around her, in a hug like fashion. But the way he squeezed her was not loving, or sorry. He squeezed her as if his mind wasn't his own, as if he was dead inside, as if his will was gone.

Y/N felt the air start to escape from her lungs as he continued to crush her in his 'hug' She scraped at his claws. "S-stop, you're- I'm- chok-"

Then the Traitor Lord suddenly smashed his claws down into the ground, bringing Y/N with them. She took in a gasp of air and lay there.

Everything in her body felt broken as she faintly saw her 'husband' stand up, the orange glow in his eyes stronger then before. He stared at her for a second then, before turning around without a word.

And as her mind started to fade to black, the pain fading too, Y/N lay there. Right with her daughter that she loved so.

She held a flower in her claws as she took her last breath, her pain finally giving up.

Everything went black.
