The empty hallway gives way before you, pristine white walls decorated with the insignia of the Knights of Favonius, their swords and shields a solemn vow to keep you safe from any danger which might loom.
A bitter chuckle goes past your lips as you feel your knees give in, small droplets of spit at the corners of your lips as gentle footsteps echo behind you. Like the man himself, they are slow, precise and oh so soft as you feel him crouch next to you, a warm palm now on your shoulder. His gloved hand inches closer as he carefully removes some of the saliva off your sensitive lips, his fingers toying with the liquid for a brief second.
"You had a stronger reaction than I anticipated." he muttered to himself. Even in such a miserable state, he still looked so disgustingly ethereal, his golden hair framing his beautiful face.
He could not be human, you rationalized. No one so perfect yet so wicked could walk on this Earth, not like he can. Like a whisper in the wind, this determined man would find you no matter where you tried to hide.
His hands go around your shoulders and waist, his grip surprisingly strong despite his short stature. Like a doll, he held you with the utmost care, eyes glimmering with devotion and curiosity, as if he truly was holding a precious toy to take home.
"I've already packed some things. I'll need your input on the rest."
Fascinating how he was speaking so candidly, as if this whole ordeal was not a literal kidnapping. Just where did he get the nerve to pull off such a stunt?
You could already feel the snow on your lips, sense the crackle of the warm fire, the air of Dragonspine beckoning you to come back. Albedo had once promised that he would build you a home there, where no one could bother the two of you.
It was a mistake to not take him seriously.
You could hear him ramble on that it would be hard to adjust at the start, but it was not impossible. He could bring you all you need and if need be, perhaps you could go hunt together.
If the situation was any different, perhaps you would have said yes to him.
However, the choice to choose had been stolen from you, those gorgeous eyes of his staring down at you in wonder. It was the closest thing to glee, you realized.
It's a shame how beautiful you found it.
