The Lady of the North Castle

Il Capitano x Fem Reader (OC?)
There are no descriptors meant for reader-insert besides having longer hair and growing up in Snezhnaya
CW: Triggering subjects like violence, sexual assault, alcohol, and blood are mentioned (all are nonromantic), suggestive but no explicit sexual scenes, meant for YA readers

After being kicked out of a noble household in Liyue, you have quite the predicament on your hands. It is not easy living on the streets of Liyue with no noble house backing you nor having no shelter, food, or money to create a living for yourself. Suddenly, you're given a strange offer; go to Snezhnaya and serve under a lord for a living and protection from the man who will stop at nothing to seal up loose ends.
Shipped overseas, you're met with the surprise that the lord you serve is the one and only Il Capitano. Yet, something feels different about him, or the rumors. Is he really the monster people tell? Or is there something more underneath that mask? Or maybe, something between both of you?

A/N: this fic exists because I'm clawing at the walls for Capitano crumbs and no one else seems to be as obsessed as I am so I'm going to make this someone's problem
