CURSED OBSESSION

9.

'That... that cannot be possible...' I was in shock, unable to process. Neither did Inko.

"U- Uhm..." She mumbled nervously, glancing around.

"Mom, I forgot about the coins-! Wait, why is the Prince of Musutafu here?" The voice beckoned in a worried tone, I covered my face, regretting every decision I have ever made in my life.

'Goddammit, how am I able to escape from these psychopaths?!' I thumped my palm against my forehead in frustration.

"I- I don't know who that name is..." Inko lied, the prince Todoroki let out a silent growl at the woman, definitely not believing in her white lies.

"Have ever seen that girl?" Another guard spoke up, displaying the portrait of me, Inko shook her head.

"Mom? What's going on?" The soft-spoken boy asked again, absolutely confused, and had no idea what was going on.

I assumed he was behind the guards, so he wasn't able to see the Inko's interactions.

"N- Nothing, they're asking m- me about a stranger." She replied, the bicolored haired boy furrowed his brows.

"Investigate the house. Find her, bring her to me. Do no harm to her otherwise your hands will be cut off." He endangered, the guards shivered down and nodded, "Y- Yes, Your Highness."

"Good. Do it quickly." He added, stepping in the house.

The floor creaked by the first step, my face paled. Feeling utterly helpless.

'I just put Inko into a danger...' I gulped, unable to decide to save her from the situation that she didn't deserve to be dragged in.

Or I should just run away, hide everytime and they'll look for me even more.

'It's now or never.' I closed my eyes tightly and chose to... run away.

"Come on out, my N/N. We can marry together and have a wonderful family. We are destined to be together." The monotone voice pleaded, hinting at the lovesick tone behind the monotony, I shook my head.

"You're all I need, N/N. You're my sunshine. You're supposed to love me as I love you."

I scanned the area, seeing the guards exploring the room, going upstairs, walking around the living room.

I heard the footsteps getting closer to me then I took my chance and bolted out of the hiding spot and dashed to the exit, pushing the male away who wore strangely fancy clothes but I had to run away from them.

"Guards, bring her back here! Immediately!"

I didn't look back and passed Inko's son, who was surprised to find out that I had been hiding in his mother's house yesterday.

I went straight back to that forest where I came out, I would admit that it was pretty dumb of me going back but I had no other choices to get away from them!

I sprinted in various directions, losing them. And I finally stopped in the middle of nowhere, panting heavily.

I hid in the big bushes, slowing my breaths, regaining the patterns of it again. No noises in distance were heard, I smiled softly in success.

My breathing stopped when I heard the heavy exhaling next to me, my head turned to the direction and saw...

Bakugou.

My breath hitched and tried to back away from him, his face grimaced, he placed his hands on my shoulders and pinned me against the grass, forcing me not to move.

He leaned to my neck and inhaled deeply. "Kinda missed this damn good smell..." his nose brushed lightly on my neck.

"Get... get off of me!" I struggled, he refused.

I studied his outfit, there were feathers on his shoulders, tattooed arm, and three necklaces displaying around his neck, showing off half of his muscular torso.

I was sure he wore the dark-colored pants since I could feel his fabric rubbing against mine but I couldn't tell how it looked since the position he forced me.

"You're mine. I can do whatever I fucking want to do." He growled.

'This is not good! If I scream out for the help, they'll find me and force me to become Shōto's wife or Katsuki is gonna take me away from them and lord, I don't know!' I grunted out of force to break free from his grasp.

'How about I keep trying to escape from these madmen?!'

"Y'know, Y/N," he whispered as his thumb lingered lightly from my neck to my chin slowly as he spoke, "when I saw you, I thought you were just the same bitch as others. But the more I look at you, the more fucking addicting you were."

I heard the quiet noises that didn't seem to bother Katsuki, he forced my face to turn to him, seeing his crimson eyes softening up a bit as he smirked.

His fingers brushed against my cheek softly. I couldn't believe it was Katsuki, doing THAT to me. I never thought of Katsuki being like that and I assumed that he was more of an ass in that place because he was a... barbarian?

The noises became louder and stopped. Suddenly I saw the flash of a person tackling Katsuki over the grass like a crazy predator that hunted down a gazelle.

"Stay away from her!!" Slowly I got clear who it was, Izuku. He was on top of Katsuki and punched in his face angrily.

"The fuck?!" Katsuki growled, I took my time to escape while Izuku tossed Katsuki to the tree. "I'm gonna fucking end your life, you damn bitch!" The barbarian growled.

"Oh? Bring it on then, Kacchan!" After hearing Midoriya's pure rage, made me shiver.

Midoriya positioned himself as a defender while Bakugou got up from getting tossed around and glared at him.

"She is fucking mine. She fucking deserves a real man like me, and you? What the fuck are you?" He provoked, angering Midoriya.

I realized that I had been standing there and did nothing but watch them.

'Goddamn it, Y/N, fucking run!' I yelled at myself then I ran away in a direction that I had no idea where.

But I made sure that I wasn't tracing back to Inko's house.

———

After hours, hours, and hours, and the sun seemed to set down, signaling that it was going to be evening.

I sighed as I sat down on the big rock that I found on the way that I hoped was my escape.

"L/N Y/N." The voice spoke, making me freeze in the spot. "Going through various dimensions, hm?"

I turned around to see the figure with the covered face, my brows raised in a quiz.

"How did you know?" I asked, furrowing my brows at that person or something else.

"Find the correct path." Muttered the mysterious individual, my eyes widened.

"What path?! How do I know that it's the right path?!" I semi-whispered to the unknown posture in need of an answer to escape out of there.

"The paper." The dull voice whispered as they turned around. "What kind of paper?! There are so many such papers!" I yelled out in frustration.

"They're listening." Mumbled the unknown identity, "Find the paper and we'll meet again. There."

"Hurry. He's coming."

After that, he or she or whoever it was, disappeared out of my sight as I panicked. 'Fuck! I gotta hide again!' I cursed to myself mentally as I looked around in anguish.

But I was too late for that.

"Found her!"
