A CRUMB OF LOHEN THOUGHT PLEASE .. ELABORATE ON THOSE TAGS
Just thinking about Lohen drugging your drink when you aren’t looking, and now you’re waking up hours later, groggy and disoriented. He’s tied your wrists and ankles well, and the skillful knots suggest he’s done this multiple times before. A skill ruthlessly honed to a fine point. Perhaps you’re less of an actual target for the Knights and more so one for him. Abusing his power and the resources at his disposal just a bit to track you down for himself. Maybe you’ve never met him before or maybe you have in some inconspicuous manner. Bumped into him at the market. Passed him by in the wilderness while he lurked in the bushes, stalking you. Regardless of how you ‘met’, he’s spent months building a detailed profile of you. It’s not stalking, it’s observation. :)
So it really does thrill him when you finally speak to him at the tavern. Lohen placed himself there because he knows your preferred seat at the bar. Honestly, he was ready to strike up conversation himself, so it took him by partial surprise when you turned his way and offered to buy him a drink, a coy, coquettish flirt. And who was he to turn down your generous offer? For the first time he gets to truly look at you, right in your face, and the weirdest thing happens. The world slows and narrows to a vicious point, sound flattens out into a muffled din, everything and everyone melts away. His heart stutters.
Just as he thought, you’re breathtaking. In more ways than one. <3 the amount of creepy people he’s disposed of for your sake. You don’t even know how much blood has stained these hands of his. The same hands that reach to brush your cheek. He could have you pinned to the table in a matter of seconds, dagger poised at your jugular. He could reach out and grab hold of your neck. A steady chop to the back of it and you’d fall. A single conversation is all it takes to reaffirm and strengthen the sheer obsession he’s been feeling ever since you caught his eye.
He was so strangely charming during your interaction at the tavern, but then maybe you were a bit too tipsy to notice any unusual characteristics to this guy who looks at you like he’s going to devour you when you aren’t paying attention. And now it’s landed you in some dingy cellar, bound and gagged.
Oh, you poor thing. You must be so scared. :( you can struggle and scream if it’ll make you feel better. He kneels in front of you and smiles, lifts your chin with the handle of his dagger. The sharp side is pinched between his fingers. Like always, he waltzes on the precarious edge of a knife. Go on and cry all you want, he’ll encourage. His eyes are bright with a sadistic gleam.
Don’t worry. You’re not in trouble or anything. He’s not a bad guy. Although he knows how this must look to you. But he’s not going to hurt you…intentionally. :)
It’ll be fine. He’s built a sizable profile on you, so he knows all about whether or not you can hold your own in a fight. Even if you can’t, he’s more than happy to play along. He might even let you pin him down! That’s only if you can get out of your bindings first. If you can manage that, anything’s on the table. Hell, he’ll even let you throw his dagger at him and he’ll stand perfectly still and everything. <3 you almost think he wants you to hurt him.
The balance between sadist and masochist is certainly something. How you managed to capture the attention of such a crazy individual is beyond you. Lohen’s something of a delinquent, but the world is brighter with someone lovely like you in it. Even more so when he pursues you, having allowed you to ‘escape’, all so he can indulge in the exhilaration of a chase.
