Mercy | Kylo Ren (on hold)

Chapter 5

"Get up." I heard and my eyes shot open. I was in bed and a dark looming figure was standing over me. I was jerked from my sheets and I watched as they had been thrown off of me and onto the floor leaving me cold and exposed. "Get dressed now, you've waisted enough of my time already."

"Good morning to you too." I said just being over it. I didn't care anymore.

"Don't start." He said shaking his head.

I felt uncomfortably exposed because I had slept in one of the sweaters that was in my closet and just my under garments. I pulled at the edges of my clothes and stomped off towards my closet. I shut the door and quickly changed into my clothes for the day. I came back out to him standing in the same spot as I had left him in.

"I'm ready." I said crossing my arms.

He looked at me not moving for several seconds before slowly stepping forward. His hand lifted as he neared closer to me. He brushed his fingers against the side of my face and I stood frozen and almost repulsed. I was so used to his violent nature that this softness was unlike him.

I felt his hand pry into the back of my neck a while after that awkward interaction. I wanted to resist and everything was telling me to, but it was almost so gentle and soothing. I don't know why he was being so nice, but I couldn't ignore him digging to my mind. I kept what I knew he was looking for tightly tucked away. He could take whatever else he wanted, but that was going to be mine. It always would.

"It's okay, relax." He cooed and I felt a wave of relaxation. I didn't want to relax, but his voice was smooth and inviting. I knew he was just tricking me, but I couldn't help but submit.

My mind was almost being massaged and I was completely subjecting to it. I could see memories flash through my mind. I was happy with Percy, traveling the galaxy together. Fighting like siblings, yet laughing like best friends. I felt Kylo Ren stroke his thumb and my mind switched to an even calmer memory.

I was sitting by a fire next to Percy. The fire was warm and calm and I was sat next to him on a log. We're laughing and enjoying ourselves. I couldn't remember where it was or when it happened, but I felt sad for a moment. I missed him dearly and seeing this only made it worse.

Suddenly, the feeling left and I felt dizzy. It felt as though the room was spinning, yet I wasn't spinning with it. I opened my eyes and it was blurry for a moment. I came to and realized I was still in my room. I felt my hands on something soft and I realized I was rested on his chest.

I pushed back and looked up at him, but his hands were around my waist. He didn't let go of me and I felt unsure of what to do or say. I looked up at his empty mask in disgust by the near sight of it. I wanted to see what he looked like, but I knew he wouldn't take it off if I asked. I don't know whether I wanted to stay frozen or push myself free.

"You know I can take whatever I want." He growled. "We have a lot to get to."

His hands dropped away from me and he stalked out of the room like nothing had just happened. I was shocked, but I quickly scurried off to follow him. Completely taken back, I couldn't help but long for that warm feeling again.

"You're going to have to be faster than that." He said as I rolled onto the floor. We had been in combat training all morning. I frankly just thought it was an excuse for him to hurt me in other ways. I'm sure it was more exciting for him.

"If I had my lightsaber I'd be a lot better. This lightsaber is half the size." I said exhaling on my back.

"I doubt that." He said stepping away.
