Vermintide Handmaiden

WARNING: Mature Content. Winner of WPC #197 (Silver) The handmaiden's hurried footsteps can be heard in the hallway, followed by a loud slamming of the door. When we were finally left alone, Rin's calm voice can be heard, "I don't like that maid of yours, I will have to get you a new one within the week." I nodded, by this time I am used to having my handmaidens changed. He took the comb and started combing my hair, his dark eyes looking straight into my eyes, the sheer perfection of his face in contrast to my ever-plain-looking face. I looked away, I can't bear looking at it, it reminds me of the book that I'm in and how this is not a fairytale. He held me by the shoulders and asked in a cold voice, "Why do you look away? Is the idea of us still so intolerable for you?" I don't know how to answer him so I just nodded and bit my lower lip. He carried me to bed as he kissed my hair. Then, he laid me on the bed, his eyes boring through mine. "I hate that you are afraid of me, and that the idea of us is unacceptable to you. But right now, the only thing making you stay with me is fear of what I'd do if I lose you, I have no choice but to hold onto it. Forgive me Maru, I have no choice but to cherish the fear I have inflicted on you." He disrobed me, his calloused hands rough against my skin, feeling, touching, and leaving warmth where it landed. I winced every time his fingers land on a bruise, or on some of the fresh marks he placed there last night. "Do you want this?" he asked me as his fingers curled against my breasts, pinching one taut nipple after the other. I nodded, unable to deny under his skeptical gaze, I moaned in pleasure when his lips replaced his touch. His tongue licked on a pinkish bud and then sucked so very gently. "Tell me, any time you want me to stop, Maru. One word, that is all I need," he whispered and I blushed as I was reminded that I never stopped his assaults. I was powerless against my own needs, in the modern human world, it seems I am a submissive. And right here taking me in for another torturous night, is my dominant. I am married to Rin Saito, the most powerful monarch this world has ever seen, and I... I think I may have found my master in him. "Raise your hands for me, raise them above your head, and clasp them together," he whispered, his mouth barely an inch from my ear. I obliged, my body trembling from desire and fear combined, anticipating his next orders and feeling my body give in to his control. He took a silky rope he has been keeping on the drawers of the bedside table, and smiling, bounded up my wrists. "Tighter?" his sadistic smile made him a bit more benevolent in my eyes. I trembled from excitement as I nodded my head. He tightened my bind and leveled his head with mine, then he dipped his head, claiming my lips as I squirm helplessly against him. He opened my lips and slid his tongue inside my throat, my own saliva dripping down my neck. "Beautiful, my beautiful Maru," I heard him whisper as his hands continued to travel down, stroking and sliding gently down my skin until it reached my undergarments. "You shouldn't even bother with this, you know of my appetite. I told you not to wear them at night, my love, do you really want to be punished that badly?" I moaned, his lips curving in a proud smile. "I like it when you lose yourself in shameless pleasure. I like it when I can sully the princess and turn her into my queen," he claimed my lips more possessively.

"Look at me Rory, YOU ARE MINE" Dominique's deep baritone echoed as he drew her closer.

“What would you do for me, Sir Grimm?” I look over the strapping soldier before me. “You are my queen,” he responds. “I will do anything for you.” A slow smile spreads my lips. “Alright then, take off your armor.” He looks at me with bright blue eyes, like he’s been waiting on this very command a long time coming. The clang of light metal echoes in the room as his chain mail falls away. He stands now in only crimson breeches and battle sandals. His eyes never leave mine for a second. “Divine,” I lift my hand to him, and my fingers settle over his broad chest, tracing a path down the battle scar over his left breast down to abs hard as bricks.

The swaying red lanterns and the air of celebration did not hide the aura of impending death in the Duke's Residence. In the courtyard, two black-clad guards stood outside the bride's chambers. A single handmaiden knelt outside the door and bawled while the other handmaidens shook in their boots as a girl's screams echoed endlessly from within the chambers. "Speak! Where is it?!" A ruthless man's voice could be heard that was void of emotion."Xiao Yelei! You married a princess just to obtain it?! I will tell my father, the emperor, that you're—argh!" The woman shrieked as blood trickled out of the corner of her lips. She screamed as she was sent flying, her forehead knocking into the sharp edge of a table, her consciousness fading as her blood streamed down her eyelids. Dressed in a bridegroom's robes, Xiao Yelei glanced coolly at the unresponsive woman without batting an eyelid.

S-She's the princess..." The handmaiden in the lead warned Xiao Yelei gingerly. Xiao Yelei shot her a look, his lips curling up ruthlessly. "So what? Pour some water on her face and wake her up!"Her comfortable life as a princess was over after that foolish king made him marry her!***As a modern poison specialist, her soul transferred to the Princess of Yin Xi, who led a tragic life.

On the night the meteor rain marched down the sky like an endless parade, Vera made a wish upon a shooting star. “If only you would just disappear!” When the person loved by all, unalike to Vera, whispered something to her, Vera felt her body wash up in heat and wished the person in front of her to just disappear. When the stars have fallen and the wine have spilled, both Vera and the woman fell off from the second-floor balcony, except as it turns out, the woman who fell with her was the falling star descending from the sky, while she was the spoiled wine, unwanted on the marble balcony floor. Her personal knight, who had pledged an oath of loyalty to Vera, rushed to save Diana over her. The person whom Vera loved all her life, called out another woman’s name: “Diana- Save her immediately!” When Vera woke up, she was neither at the sparkling dancehall, nor was she in her luxurious bedroom, but at an equally cold prison cell, dirty and dark, unalike to places she’d ever frequent. “You pushed Lady Diana off the balcony, and the crown prince demands you pay with your life through execution” As her handmaiden informs her of her impending execution announced by the very man she loved the most, the crown prince, Vera smirks a sarcastic smile. She was a selfish, arrogant, demanding and cruel person. ‘But if I don’t love myself, then who will?’ On the day of her execution, she walked onto the platform with a cold arrogance, and Vera, on her last moments on the guillotine, smiled through her red cracked lips against ridicule and undermining expectations. ‘If I could turn back time, I would not only hate that protagonist of a woman- Diana, but everyone. I’ll hate every single one of you.’

Nadia Valaska was only twelve when she witnessed her mother, the queen, being killed but when the murderer Is a part of her family, who then can she trust?

She was a warrior princess seeking to reclaim her nation, to regain the power to disenthrall her people but most especially, she wanted to avenge her mother's death but her plans hit an unexpected gridlock when she encountered a man given the task to capture and retrieve her to the palace at the command of the prime minister's son, the general. She was an immigrant hiding in an unfamiliar border so naturally, she was unyielding. The fact that a person like the general would send a bounty hunter after her, spelled nothing but trouble. So she did what she knew how to do best. She fought. A former fisherman's son, bounty Hunter, a mercenary, orphaned by the century-long war; Azuel was known for several things. After decades of fighting a grueling war, the country of Sanscar plummeted into revolting poverty, leaving the locals striving for food, struggling to live. And after losing his brother and father to the war, Azuel's entire existence now hinges on one task alone. To care for his niece no matter what. The pain that came with grief and the desire for vengeance, had a way of bonding souls together. Without anything left to anchor Azuel to Estora, he fled to join Nadia in her quest to take down the bane of their existence; the silver witch. They were both aware that the task was far from being an easy one but little did they know that a pursuit of revenge would quickly morph into a journey to save the world.
