Pairing: Koh!Tom x reader
Warnings: Mention of torture, anxiety
Summary: Y/n had her first day in her new home.
Y/n’s shriek was deafening when she saw the king. He was wearing a black suit m and how much y/n hated to admit it, he looked amazing, his coffee brown hair was slicked back and his brown orbs pierced through the dark. “What- am I doing here?” she tried to remain strong, but when you’re staring in the eyes of the devil it is harder.
“You fell, my angel” Tom strutted closer to the terrified girl. The way he said ‘your angel’ made y/n shiver in a new way. “Shouldn’t I be tortured then? Not laying in a wonderful bed?” Y/n asked him, she was beyond confused. How could it be that the stories they told her were traumatising events that haunted the people living there.
“What you prefer me ripping your wings out?” Tom chuckled. “No! No this is amazing. But if I may, can I ask why?” the question came out with a soft voice. “You’re my guest” Tom said like it was the most obvious thing in the world. “Your guest?” y/n furrowed her eyebrows. “Yes my guest, now would you be so kind to join me at dinner? That’s how you ask that in heaven right?” Tom smiles at y/n. It made y/n’s legs grow weak and she was suddenly very aware of her position in bed.
“I would actually prefer if you didn’t ask it like we do in heaven” y/n laughed awkwardly, how she hated the formalities. Heaven was supposed to be a place where you could be free, but all the rules restricted her from doing that. “Oh, then I order you to come” Tom smirks before leaving the room.
It suddenly came through to y/n, she was going to have dinner with the king of hell. He was everything she was told to hate, he was darkness and evil, but he made it look good. She only had a brief conversation with him, but it was something that made her attracted to her. Like this was the plan all along.
Y/n stepped out of the bed, she expected the ground to be cold like it was in heaven, she was pleasantly surprised when then the floor was warm. Y/n silently giggled at this, she was in hell, of course it would be warmer than in heaven.
Y/n walked towards one of the three doors in her room. She opened it and saw a large bathroom. There were black tiles one the floor, there was a bath, a shower and a sink large enough for two people. It looked better than the minimalist bathroom you had in heaven and a lot better than the one in jail.
Y/n decided she needed a good shower so she stripped out of her clothes and turned on the water. The water caressed her bare skin in a delightful way. She wiped the hair out of her face. A content sigh left her lips, she washed her hair and rinsed her body. Y/n stepped out of the shower and grabbed one of the fluffy black towels. She draped it around her body and she walked back to the main room. There were two other doors she hadn’t looked in, she guessed that the door Tom left through the exit was, so she opened the other door.
She let out a gasp when she saw the walk-in closet. It had all different kinds of colours and shoes. There were jewels and make-up. It had everything y/n ever desired and more. She looked around in awe. Her eyes scanned all the dresses in search of something appropriate for hell. In the end she chose for a short black dress that’s tight at the waist but lose below it.
Y/n wanted to say thank you for not torturing her by doing this. She was wearing hell’s colours. She grabbed black pumps and went to the make-up table. She decided to go minimal in make-up. In heaven they would had ridiculed y/n, by putting in so much effort for a man she doesn’t know, polite or not.
Y/n wasn’t in heaven though and she loved it. However, she couldn’t help but fear that this was all just a sick joke and that she’s still in heaven or that the king was acting nice but leading her to her demise.
An unpleasant thought crossed y/n’s mind, what if he was going to use her? Rob her from her flower? She shook her head, if that was to happen she wouldn’t be able to stop him, she might as well try to enjoy the last moments of purity.
“Hello?” a voice from the other side of the door knocked. “Come in” y/n said as she walked out of the closet. A man who looked around her age was infront of her. He had blue eyes and a drop dead gorgeous smile.
“I’m Harrison” he grabbed y/n’s hand and kisses the back of it. “I’m y/n” she introduced herself. “You look great in that colour” Harrison noticed. “Thank you, I wanted to get out of the whites” y/n despised the colour and what it stands for, it wasn’t pure there it was unethical. “I see you don’t like heaven all too much” Harrison said.
“Nobody actually does. I love the idea of heaven, but that’s it” Y/n shrugged with a goofy smile on her face. “Alright, well here we are” Harrison opened a door to the dining room. There at the end of the table where two plates. Tom was already seated in one chair. He stood up and pulled the chair back for y/n. “Thank you sir”
Y/n walked to her chair, the clicking of her heels was all too noticeable. She sat down in the chair and Tom shoved it to the front. “You look ravishing, darling. Black looks great on you” Tom said to y/n. “Thank you sir” y/n blushed at his compliment. “Please call me Tom” he smiled at her, y/n’s face was blood red.
There was a long silence before y/n decided to speak up, “What made you decide that I’m your guest?”
“When you were laying on the ground, something inside me told me you weren’t supposed to be held hostage,” Tom explained, he was nervous around y/n because he knew she was his soulmate. However, she was a fallen angel, so she would be terrified of him.
It was already a surprise to him when he saw the black dress on her. He didn't want to push his luck. “Thank you again, Tom” the way his name fell from her lips made Tom’s heart flutter. She had the wings his soulmate would have. The change of colour was a beautiful sight to him and it made him wonder if y/n knew it too.
An easy conversation fell between the two, it felt like they met a childhood friend. “If you don’t mind me asking why are you so against heaven” Tom asked, he heard from Harrison that she didn’t like the colour white and he thought back to how she said that she didn’t prefer the heavenly talk. “Oh, I hated it there. For some reason they decided to throw me in a dungeon and torture me, that made the black on my colours” y/n gazed at Tom in pain, her wings would always remind her of heaven’s corruption.
Tom furrowed her eyebrows, he knew a lot about angel wings after having ripped of many of them, but not one of the turned black after it. “Why did they do it?”
“They kept saying something about me being the devil’s property and not deserving to be there,” she muttered. It was weird for her to confess that, since Tom was the devil.
“I hope you slept nice in my bed, I had to go to another room for you” Tom decided to change the subject. “In slept in your bed? Tom I can’t do that it’s your bed, I could sleep somewhere else” y/n was blabbing.
“Calm down princess you can stay there, maybe it won’t take long before I join you” Tom whispered the last part himself, but it was clear as day to y/n. She spat out her drink and starter coughing. “It was just a joke love, don’t worry,” he said, not telling her how it wasn’t an actual joke, how he actually wanted to lay next to her.
