Concept: You are Scathach first born child and during your many years alive you meet Edward Mordrake.

Edward Mordrake x F Witch Reader

~ You weren’t sure who your father was, no one had ever told you, and the people in the colony, outside of Tomasyn and Ambrose, who was the closest thing you had to a grandmother and older sibling, only interacted with you when it was absolutely necessary so it was unlikely that any of them were your father, and if they were they would never admit it. So there were times when you’d wonder if maybe part of the ritual that gave your mother her powers in the New World was to conceive a child for the old gods, which would explain why you were immortal and the rest of your siblings weren’t.

~ The first time you left the hallowed grounds, outside of going an hour or two away, was when you and one of your siblings, that had been born in the mid-1800s, decided that you wanted to see what England was like.

~ The both of you had decided to stow away on a ship to get to England, just like your mother had, and you were able to procure a room at the first hotel you’d both come across.

~ Coincidentally, there was also a Freak Show being held right across the street so that was the first thing you and your sister did.

~ You weren’t that impressed with it at first, only seeing a bunch of people being exploited for little to no compensation.

~ Then you heard it, someone was playing the piano and it wasn’t some shitty saloon music either; it was beautiful.

~ Walking through the crowds you found what you were looking for, right when the song ended and the crowd was running away in terror.

~ Soon you were the only one that remained looking up at the face on the back of the man's head while it looked down at you and the man it was attached to seemed to be confused, judging by how he was moving at least, before he turned around to face you.

“Hi,” You said

“Hello...” Edward said, placing his hat back on his head. There was a long pause as the two of you looked at each other “how rude of me. I am Edward Mordrake” he took your hand in his

“Y/N,” You said as he kissed the back of your hand

“You are from the States I take it?”

“Yeah”

“What brings you across the pond then?” Edward asked before hissing at his second face “don’t be vulgar!”

“I’d think that would be pretty difficult for you to do considering you’re just a face on the back of his head” You said, tilting your head like you were trying to see

“Bitch” the face called you

Edward looked horrified at what you’d just been called, but all you could do was laugh.

~ Edward was relieved when you didn’t run away; happy that he seemed to have found someone he potentially have a connection with. It didn’t even register that his demon had gone quiet.

~ You didn’t get to stay long as your sister had come to get you, letting you know she was hungry and ready to leave.

~ Obviously, Edward was disappointed that you had to leave and he went back to playing his piano in an attempt to block out the voice once again.

~ He couldn’t describe the amount of joy he felt when he saw that you’d come to visit him the next day to listen to him perform. Even the demon seemed to be content that you’d shown up again; maybe it was because you could hear it and found amusement out of what it said or, more than likely, it could sense what you were and knew it would be best not to gain your ire.

~ It turned into a daily thing for the rest of the time you were in England, visiting Edward while your sister went off and did her own thing.

~ At first he was worried about what associating with him would do to your reputation, but it quickly became apparent that you didn’t give a shit about what others thought.

~ You’d often spend your time together listening to him playing his piano or listening to him reading his poems aloud.

~ The fine arts weren’t really something the colonists knew much about so you weren’t really exposed to much outside of the occasional folk song, and hymn. So it was nice to learn about other forms of music and how to paint.

~ He even taught you how to ballroom dance, despite how worried about stepping on his feet you were.

“Alright,” Edward said one hand holding yours as the other hovered over your waist “now the first step” you moved your hand from where it was resting on his shoulder to move his to your waist, a light blush dusting his cheeks before you put your back on his shoulder.

~ For all the months you were in England for you’d been staying in the hotel you’d chosen but there were some nights you’d stay in his tent with him, Edward allowing you to use his bed while he somehow managed to sleep on his piano seat, regardless of many times you told him you were comfortable with sharing the bed.

Edward was taking a nap while you sat in the chair that was placed next to his bed, reading one of the few books he owned.

“Why do you stay?” The demon face asked as it was facing you since Edward was sleeping on his side “you are one of the most powerful witches on this planet and yet you choose to spend your time hanging around a spineless fool instead of indulging in the darkness inside of you”

“Well,” You started, placing a marker in the book before closing the cover “is it so hard to believe that I enjoy both of your companies?”

“Considering that you could easily attract someone just as illustrious as you are. Yes it is”

Smiling, you set the book off to the side so you could stand up. Arching a curious eyebrow the demon face watched as you leaned over the bed; keeping eye contact with you before you placed a kiss next to the corner of it’s mouth. Pulling away you saw that the face had become pink and it appeared to be pouting. Chuckling, you sat back down and grabbed the book, the face not saying anything else letting you read in peace until Edward woke up; greeting you with a kiss to the corner of your own mouth while the second face refused to make eyecontact with you for the rest of the day.

~ Eventually you had to go home though as the blood moon was nearing.

At first, you’d tried to work through the week but the blood lust and rage that came from the moon's cycle became too much and you lashed out against the carnies; lifting several of them into the air with your telekinesis, cutting off their airways until Edward intervened, snapping you out of your rage induced haze so they could drop to the ground.

“Are you alright, my love?” Edward asked, a hand resting on your shoulder, as he walked you back to his tent

“The blood moon is nearing” You sighed

“Blood moon?” Edward asked, holding the flap to his tent open. Taking a seat on the bed you explained everything to him “perhaps you should go home, it may help”

“I don’t know” You sighed, running your fingers through your hair “I like spending time with you and I’m afraid if I go home I won’t be able to come back”

There was a long pause before Edward spoke again “I’m sure we’ll meet again” he gave you a reassuring smile

~ Since your magic was much stronger than your sisters you were able to get home within a few hours as you didn’t need to take a boat back to North Carolina.

~ You’d found out what had happened when your mother and Granny Tomasyn brought you the chest he kept his poems and music sheets locked in, along with a newspaper from England about what had happened, it had even added the legend of his returning on Halloween.

~ After that you began frequenting Freak Shows on Halloween in hopes that you would come across him, you did a handful of times but they were few and far between and some of them were only for a couple of minutes as the workers would find you and quickly remove you from the grounds.

~ Then you met Elsa.

~ It didn’t take much more than showing her your actual magical abilities, not just the sleight of hand she was used to, to get her to allow you to join the show; though you were mostly used for special effects and crew work as she was worried you would upstage her.

~ It was nice having another group of people you could call family, especially ones who didn’t try to pry into your life before the Freakshow, like the freaks in Edward’s show had done. It’s not like it was difficult to talk about, it just brought up a bunch of questions that you don’t want to answer.

~ That was until Bette and Dots first Halloween night in the show.

~ Ethel had just finished telling the twins about the legend of Edward Mordrake and Jimmy was about to get on her about her drinking when you told them your version of the story.

“But eventually I had to go home, and I left two weeks before...”

Everyone was quick to notice how upset you’d gotten and Eve got up to sit next to you, pulling you into her side as she rested her cheek on top of your head to comfort you.

“You two were in love?” Bette asked

“Ew!” Jimmy started screaming suddenly, grabbing the sides of his head “ew! Ew, no!” he ran out of the tent, still freaking out “no”

“What was that?” Dot asked

“I think I know,” Paul said “it’s somethin’ dirty involving the seco- wait. Mordrake was born in the 1800s, how old’re you?”

You took a drink from your cup “Don’t worry about it”

~ Paul refused to leave you alone about how old you were after that, accusing you of being a cradle robber and anything else similar to that he could think of, until you hopped onto the ferris wheel and moved yourself to the top and refused to let it work until he left.

“Oh,” Ethel said, stopping Mordrak before he could leave her caravan after he’d asked his questions. “Y/N might be actin’ a bit weird tonight. She gets a bit stir crazy durin’ the, what’d she call it, blood moon, probably out by the water”

Edward felt his ghostly heart fluttering in his chest upon hearing your name “Y/N/N is here?” He gripped his cane

Ethel immediately noticed how nervous the spirit had become “Yeah, I can take you to where she likes to go if you’d want”

“…Thank you”

Readjusting her shawl Ethel lead Edward down to the water’s edge, a bit confused when the ghost seemed to be frozen in place when they reached where you were; until she saw the demon face rolling its eyes before it yelled at him to go and talk to you.

~ It was the week of the blood moon and tonight it was at its fullest so you weren’t fully aware of what was happening around you as you kept your rage in check. That’s why you didn’t notice the green fog that had rolled in. You didn’t even notice that Edward was behind you until he placed his hand on your shoulder.

“Edward!” You said, turning to face him fully

“Hello, Y/N,” Edward said, taking off his hat “how have you been, my love?”

“Good. You?”

“Not much changes when you’re in my state I’m afraid,” Edward said with a chuckle as the wind started picking up “are you cold?”

“I’m fine,” You said, suppressing a shiver

Edward gave you a look that told you he didn’t believe you so he took off his cape and draped it over your shoulders and clasped it into place so it would be secure.

~ You walked with him around the grounds, standing outside your friend's tents, and listening as he asked his questions. You already knew their stories but it still upset you having to listen to them re-live everything again.

~ Then you got to Elsa and you weren’t sure how to feel, you just knew that if she was the one to be taken she probably deserved it.

“What’s wrong?” You asked when Edward stepped out of Elsa’s tent

“Do you hear music?” Edward asked looking around and walking past you

“No,” You said following Edward, grabbing hold of his sleeve so you could keep up with him in his trance-like state to Twisty’s camp

~ With how fast Edward was walking the trek through the forest would have been difficult if you hadn’t grow up in a forest that was far less traveled than this one, and thankfully he didn’t vanish; so you were able to find the camp with him.

~ You decided to stick around the edge of Twisty’s camp while Edward went to investigate. Once Twisty was out of his caravan you approached.

~ Edward raised a hand to cover your eyes when Twisty removed his mask, but you stopped him letting him know you’d seen worse. To which the demon face made a comment that to anyone else would have come off as snide but you knew was meant to be a compliment.

~ You sat next to Twisty, resting a hand on his shoulder as he told his story, feeling sympathy towards him for how he’d been treated; until he got to the murders and kidnappings.

~ Once his story was finished Edward held out his hand for you to take so he could help you up before confronting Twisty about his story.

~ As Edwards carnies swarmed the clown’s body you noticed movement out of the corner of your eye. Turning you saw Jimmy looking out at you in a panic and all you could do was motion for him to stay hidden.

~ After his soul was claimed Edward walked you back to your tent and, though neither one of you said it out loud, you were both terrified that this was going to be the last time either of you would see each other. All of your touches lingered, the hug you gave him, the kiss he placed on your cheek before holding open the tent flap for you; wishing you goodnight; you’d even had your arms linked together as you walked back one of his hands resting on top of the one you had placed in the bend of his arm.

~ The first thing Jimmy did when he saw you the next day was to wrap you in a bear hug, obviously having thought that you’d been taken by the spirit, refusing to let you go until it got annoying and you had to transmutate out of his hold.

“Shut up,” Jimmy said walking into the main tent and onto the stage, carrying the chest “shut up. Everyone be quiet”

“What’s wrong?” Ethel asked

“He wrote poems about her” Jimmy said setting the chest down

“Who?” Suzie asked

“Edward Mordrake!” Jimmy exclaimed, handing out sheets of paper for the others to look at “about Y/N. And you know what I saw when I went into Y/N tent to get this? She was sleeping with a black cape draped over her that had the letters MD embroiled on it”

“He did give her his cape,” Ethel said

“I think it’s clear what we have to do, isn’t it?” Jimmy said

“We are not summoning Edward Mordrake next year!”

“Why not, ma?” Jimmy asked “I saw what they were like together”

“Look at this, Ethel,” Paul said, holding up a piece of paper, that had been folded closed and held shut with a wax seal, that had several sketches of you on it “he drew a bunch of hearts around her pictures that he drew of her, have you no soul?”

“Have you forgotten that every time he’s summoned he adds one more freak to his collection?” Ethel asked “don’t get me wrong, I saw how he looked at her and I want Y/N to be happy but it ain’t worth the risk”

“But” Jimmy started “what if he doesn’t take anyone. Y/N said it herself, the demon face is quiet when she’s around, so”

“The answer’s no” Ethel said before getting up and leaving the tent

“Let’s go find a witch,” Jimmy said once his Ma was gone

“Y/N is a witch” Suzi pointed out

“Let’s go find a different witch”

~ After everyone was killed and Dandy was dealt with, you decided to go to Briarcliff to keep an eye on Pepper and make sure she was being treated right.

~ It wasn’t that bad since Pepper wasn’t really a threat most of the guards and nuns let the two of you be.

~ One day Sister Jude had decided to allow the patients to celebrate Halloween by letting them make paper plate masks and have a contest to see whose was the best, and Pepper was so excited to participate that she’d performed part of her act when it was her turn.

~ You didn’t think much of it since this wasn’t technically a Freak Show, but you were wrong; it took a few hours but eventually, the green fog reached your room, creeping in under the crack in your door, and you jumped off the bed; running through the halls until you found him. Almost tackling Edward to the ground with the hug you gave him. Then you kissed him and his face instantly became red, but that didn’t stop him from kissing back, only hesitated for a moment, before resting his hands on your hips.

“Does that guy have two faces?” Frank asked having just rounded the corner as he was also following the fog

“Frank?” You asked, pulling away from the kiss

“Answer the question, Y/N”

~ Frank noticed the things you did, not doing anything about it as he realized you were only here to protect your friend and didn’t question what was happening. He just wanted confirmation and once he was given it he went back to doing his rounds.

~ Edward had let you know what had become of your family in the afterlife.

“That sounds like something a parent tells their child when their pet dies,” Frank said from where he was eavesdropping around the corner

“Frank!” You exclaimed

“I’m just doing my job”

“Don’t you dare take Frank!” You told the second face

~ You wouldn’t be able to follow him around this time because Frank was the only one who would be alright with you doing it.

~ Thankfully, the demon face allowed him to stay within the confines of Frank’s section, for the most part as after an hour of being in the same section it had gotten impatient and wanted its soul.

~ After the death Sister Jude was adamant that there would never again be a Halloween party.

~ There wasn’t much that happened to you in Briarcliff after that, though the demon inside Mary Eunice seemed to have developed some kind of obsession with you and you and Lana had become good friends, she’d even come vacation at your house in North Carolina once a year.

~ At some point a second house had been built on the property and that was the one that ended up being where you, your siblings, and your nieces and nephews would live in so you wouldn’t have to deal with the spirits that lived in the Shakers Mansion.

~ Once you were out of Briarcliff you made sure the basement was filled with the banners from Fraulein Elsa’s Cabinet of Curiosities and that the devil face that sat in front of the big top was in front of the house.

~ You knew that with the new show being filmed at the mansion it was going to be a cluster fuck this year, so you decided to go hang out in the tunnel with Edward Mott to avoid it; going to the house since you could never remember where the tunnel let out.

“Who the fuck broke the chandelier?” You asked, having dawned the cape Edward had given you the night he claimed Twisty, lifting the chandelier into the air and fixing it

“Who the hell’re you?” Lee asked

“Y/N,” You said taking in the state of her leg

“Are you one of them?” Audrey asked

“You got away from the Polk’s, huh?” You asked

“Yeah,” Lee said, “and we need to go back!”

“Why?” You asked

“We need the cars to get out of here,” Audrey said

“Have fun with that” You said, starting for the basement

“Hold on,” Dylan said walking over to you “I’m not sure what’s going on here, but it’s safer if we all stick together and that includes you. What was your name again?”

“Y/N,” You said getting a good look at his face, almost immediately recognizing the similarities to Edward's

“Dylan,” He said offering his hand for you to shank

“You played Ambrose right?” You asked, shaking the offered hand

“Yeah,” Dylan said smiling at you

“It’s getting late,” Audrey said, helping Lee walk on her hurt leg

“I know the quickest way to get there,” You said

“Lead the way then,” Dylan said motioning towards the door

~ During the walk you kept looking at him, sometimes without realizing it, as this was the first time in a while that you realized just how much you’d been missing Edward.

“I think she likes you” Audrey whispered so that you wouldn’t hear what she was saying “you should ask her out”

“You think?” Dylan asked

“Why are you worrying about this?” Lee asked

“Because,” Audrey started “we are in a horrendous situation and I want to focus on something positive!”

“I would be more focused on staying alive than getting your friend laid if I was you!”

Once you all got to the Polk’s farm you stuck around the truck with Dylan, watching him from the other seat as he hot-wired the vehicle.

“So, why’re you out here?” Dylan asked grabbing the wires he needed

“Reasons” You shrugged

“Are you trapped here?”

“No,” You said feeling that someone was watching you from the forest, turning around you looked around to see who it was

“So,” Dylan started as the engine roared to life “what are you-?” His sentence was cut off by Lot’s attack

Turning away from the trees you saw what was happening behind you.

“Hey!” You yelled, flinging Lot away from Dylan as he lay on the ground injured. Glaring at the Polk you walked around the truck to check on Dylan “you ok?” You knelt next to him, searching for a pulse eventually giving up on it, placing your ear over his heart to listen for the beat

“Y/N?” Dylan groaned

“You bitch” Lot groaned, slowly getting back up “why’re you helpin’ him?”

“Fuck you that’s why,” You said, getting a closer look at Dylan’s injuries “it’s not that bad”

“I’ll take your word for it,” Dylan said when Lot finally got to his feet, gripping his weapon tightly and debating on whether or not he wanted to take the risk and retaliate

“Ishmael” Lot suddenly screamed as the colonists approached “Ishmael they comin’! The blood moon’s full, Mama’s gone”

“Then I’d suggest you run,” You said, resting Dylan’s head on the ground so you’d be able to talk to the approaching colonists about sparing him

That’s when you saw an unnatural fog rolling in, at first you didn’t think anything of it until you noticed the color and you ran into the forest to find its source.

~ Because of the brief interest you’d shown in Dylan he was spared, having been dragged away from the Polk’s farm and dumped next to the main road so the police would be able to find him when they arrived in the morning.

~ Edward was confused as to why he’d been summoned, he could tell it wasn’t Halloween and his companions weren’t with him.

~ He was also concerned about the oddly familiar darkness that surrounded him and then he felt it, the fear coming from his other face. Turning around he saw a woman looking at him from inside the forest.

~ He knew that this woman before him was like nothing he’d ever encountered before and he wanted to run but something was stopping him, even forcing him to kneel when the witch of the woods approached him.

“Such a handsome young man,” Scathach said, gently cupping his face in both her hands

“I-I don’t” Edward started stammering out as he couldn’t come up with a coherent thought

“If thou wish to stay then surrender thy soul to her”

“Surrender my soul?” Edward asked, noticing the blood moon looming in the sky above him and things began piecing themselves together “Y/N/N?”

Smiling Scathach placed a kiss on his forehead “Her feelings for you have never faded” she looked toward the part of the forest she knew you’d be coming from before vanishing

It didn’t take much longer for you to emerge from the trees or for Edward to raise to his feet, meeting you halfway.

“You kept my cape” Edward whispered, a look of fondness gracing his face as he looked at you

“Yeah,” You said as he placed his hands on your shoulders “I, uh, have your music sheets and poems too. I’m not sure how, but my mom got them for me”

“So my work has not been lost to the world?” Edward asked, as a joke rather than being serious, pulling you to his chest in an embrace “this is where you grew up?”

“Yeah,” You said, wrapping your arms around his waist and resting your head against his chest, that’s when you heard it; it was faint but you could’ve sworn you heard a heartbeat

You didn’t have much time to think about it because not long after three young adults walked out of the trees together.

“Look at the moon,” Sophie said “it’s so full and bright”

“Hey,” You yelled getting their attention “the hell’re you doing here?”

“Uh,” Milo stammered as they all looked at you and Edward “l-looking for the house”

“Why?” You almost shrieked, walking up to them, Edward following close behind you “you all need to leave right now”

“But” Sophie tried to say

“No but’s,” You said, using the mom voice that you’d perfected after centuries of helping raise your siblings and their children “go now!”

There was no need to use your concilium as they were all running off just from your tone.

“Idiots” You mumbled, rubbing your left temple “this’s all that guy’s fault”

“I thought you enjoyed the carnage?” The demon face asked

“Enough people have already been claimed tonight,” You said linking your arm in Edwards “come on”

“Where are we going?” Edward asked as you began walking

“Take us to the bonfires,” The demon face said

“I don’t know” You sighed “they can be, a lot to handle”

“And we’ve spent decades in hell”

“Good point,” You said changing your direction

~ When the two of you emerged from the forest it was by the mansion, you two were the only ones around so you brought Edward over to the hot tub. Where you rolled up your pant legs/skirt so you could soak your feet in the warm water.

~ Motioning for Edward to sit you patted your lap offering to let him use it as a pillow.

~ He took the offer and rested his head in your lap, looking up at the stars as you set his hat off to the side.

“You comfy?” You asked, running your fingers through his hair

“Yes,” Edward hummed, both of you hearing the muffled agreement from the demon face, who was obviously enjoying the position “it is beautiful out here”

“Yeah,” You agreed as Edward took off one of his gloves so he could rest it on top of the hand you’d placed on his chest, caressing the back of it with his thumb

As Edward caressed your hand you noticed that his skin was slowly warming up so that it felt like a living person’s.

“It’s a shame that I won’t be able to enjoy this with you for much longer,” Edward said assuming that he would vanish when the sun rose like he always did

“Trust me,” You chuckled “if my mother summoned you, you’re not going anywhere”

“Are you sure?” Edward asked, sounding hopeful

“The one thing she’s ever wanted for all of her children is for us to be happy,” You said noticing that Monet and Audrey were looking down at you from the bedroom window of the mansion, so you motioned for them to go and hide in the cellar Elias had hidden in

Audrey and Monet were quick to make their way outside and ran to the cellar as fast as their legs would take them, making it inside just as the faintest sound of the colonists' approach reached them.

“We can go out and get you some books tomorrow and see if there’s somewhere nearby that sells pianos if you want”

“You don’t need to go through the trouble,” Edward said sitting himself up straight

“I need to get groceries sometime this week so I have to go out anyway” You said, as Edward looked at you for a moment before kissing your cheek

~ Before the colonists could get there the ghost of the Butchers victims appeared, minus Mott who was still hiding in the tunnel, all of them looking at you curiously wondering just who this man you were with was.

“They’re coming,” You said, Edward quickly getting to his feet before you could, so he could offer you his hand. Chuckling you took his hand and let him help you get to your feet.

“Is there anything I should know before they arrive?” Edward whispered

“I don’t think so,” You said as you got down from the hot tubs deck “but then again, I’ve never brought anyone home before”

“What about them?” The demon face asked, eyeing the spirits that were around them

“They’re fine,” You said knowing that none of the spirits held any hostility towards you and your siblings for what happened to them

“Are you two wearing matching capes?” Miranda asked as she and her sister walked up to you

“Disgusting” Bridget sneered

“It’s cute”

“... No”

The others were about to approach you both as well, wanting to ask their own questions but were very quick to back off when the Butcher approached, Ambrose and the Piggy Man dragging, a violently struggling, Lee behind her.

“Thou must be Edward Mordrake,” The Butcher said “I am the Butcher”

“It is a pleasure to finally meet you,” Edward said, giving his signature bow

You could feel the nerves radiating off of Edward, so you rested a hand on his back.

“Would thou like to do the honors?” The Butcher asked motioning toward Lee

Ambrose and Piggy Man brought Lee forward and forced her down to her knees before the two of you. Looking at you Edward wasn’t quite sure what to do, despite the second face yelling at him to stab her, he only acted when you gave him a nod. Gripping his cane he pulled out the dagger that was hidden inside and plunged it into Lee’s neck. Once the dagger was removed the colonists grabbed Lee and impaled her on a stake before setting her on fire, leaving her to burn for everyone to see.

“We should have come with her when she left England,” The demon face said “this is quite enjoyable”

~ Edward was about to reprimand his other face when a feeling, that he wasn’t quite sure how to explain, overcame him; he felt weightless but also like he was being crushed into the ground and when it faded he could’ve sworn that he could feel his heart beating in his chest once again.

~ One by one the colonists vanished until only you and Edward remained and the sun was rising into the sky; Audrey and Monet emerging from the cellar having been drawn out by the sound of the approaching sirens.

“Is it over?” Audrey asked limping over to the house

“For this year, yeah,” You said, Edward, placing a hand on your upper back as he took a step closer to you

“Thank God!” Monet gave a sigh of relief “who’s this?” She motioned toward Lee’s burnt body

“Lee,” You said as the police finally arrived

“Serves her right”

“Two more survivors?” The sheriff asked getting out of his car

“Yeah,” You said as he radioed in for an ambulance while Audrey and Monet were taken to separate police cars so they could be questioned “and like three bodies in the house and who knows how many studio workers out in the forest”

“Christ!” The Sheriff said before motioning toward Edward “who’s this?”

“My boyfriend, Edward,” You said, wrapping both your arms around one of Edwards

The sheriff just looked at the two of you, not saying anything he just walked away.

~ It took a moment for Edward to process what he’d just heard but once the lingering fear that his feelings weren’t reciprocated vanished and he realized that this was the happiest he’d ever felt in his life, even the demon seemed to be pleased by the title.

“Let’s go home” You sighed, transmutating both of you to the front of your house

“If only your mother could see you now,” The second face said “finally having a woman on your arm and a chance to start the family she always wanted you to have”

“Will you stop!” You said knowing this wasn’t the first it had taunted Edward about the societal pressures his parents had put on him

“Mother would have liked you had she gotten the chance to meet you,” Edward said, smiling fondly at you

“I’m sure I would’ve liked her too,” You said before Edward pulled you into a kiss
