Assassin x Reader

Connor x Reader {2}

"I'm going to get ready,(y/n). Just go downstairs if you are ready." He said,jogging up the stairs to put his robes and weapons on. He would have to get the horses-maybe a horse-ready for their journey to the city again. He should make himself impressive to make her notice him. 'This is just a bet,anyway.'

----//////----

As they rode towards Boston-in two horses,since he is considerable-,Connor and (y/n) was silent,not knowing how to spark up a conversation. They were both shy people,but very aggressive when it comes to battle. How could even two Assassins be shy to each other?

"We should be near Boston." Connor awkwardly said,looking at (y/n) to see her nod shyly and fiddle her thumbs. Trees and grassy fields suddenly disappear,and then later on,they have arrived on (y/n)'s place. She invited him inside as she fix her things and make sure to not leave anything behind. Connor just looked at her home,portraits of her family hung on the wall and some of her pictures were framed and placed on a table near the front door.

"Alright,Connor. I'm-hold on." She ran towards her room,grabbing a box and a bunch of papers and shoved them inside the box. She secured it with the lock and placed it under her arm. Her other belongings were placed on a small yet bulky bag,only one bag. "Alright,I'm ready."

He nodded and grabbed her bag,opening the front door for her like a gentleman. She nodded her thanks and walked towards her horse. She secured her things and hopped up the horse without any help and pulled the reigns. Connor also went to his and nodded to (y/n). They both went back to the homestead,only to be stopped by the guards. "Assassins!" A gunshot was fired,and suddenly (y/n)'s horse went down. She grunted when she fell off,her things suddenly tumbled on the ground making her curse out loud. "You wanna play?!" She roared,flicking her wrists and her sharp blades sprung out,her lips crinkled into a devilish smile that made Connor halt and shudder in fear. "Let's dance then."

----//////----

After letting (y/n) 'dance with my blades',they finally arrived at the homestead with her things buckled on Connor's horse. (Y/n),with her robes decorated with blood of the guards,went inside the house with a smirk filled with victory. Connor swore that he could feel the fear of thirty guards because of a girl's threat. She suddenly turned into a killing machine,and Connor is didn't help but look at how she strikes. She was graceful,swinging her sword and dodged every attack they give to her. No matter how many guards she was battling,she didn't even have a look of fear or doubt that she could make it. It really made Connor swallow when she sheathes her bloody sword and looked at him with her dark (e/c) eyes.

"You didn't even help me kill those idiots." She pouted,making Connor blush and laugh nervously. "Y-you were...quite busy right there,so I left you at it." He nervously mumbled,scratching the nape of his neck with a sheepish smile. She laughed,grabbing the mysterious box and slung her bag on her shoulder. "What's that box,if I may ask?" Connor sounded like an old grandfather worried of his granddaughter,making him think about Achilles,his fatherly figure and his mentor. (Y/n) looked at him then proceeded to open the box.

"It should be a secret,but you helped me with a lot of things,so..." The lock clicked open,revealing crumbled papers and wilted roses. She frowned when she pulled a paper out of the box and examined it. "The box was given to me when I was eighteen. They told me to open it when I was ready to become 'one of them'. I did know what they mean,but then I decided to do what I was told. One day,I became curious,so I proceeded to open the box. I didn't know the code,so I tried to open it by attempting to place random numbers on it. But then I had an idea to input my birthday,and it did open. There was notes inside along with a key. The key,when placed on the lock from my father's chest is my Assassin robes. The notes came from my father's last wishes to me along with my mother's and uncle's. And then Templars suddenly burst in and came to kill me,leaving me no choice but to flee and search for a place to hide."

"It suddenly came to the point that I came here to find the Assassins here. I found a place and then disguised myself as a girl who sells fruits in different places. And then I decided to show myself to the world that I am an Assassin,so that I could search for comrades and Assassins whom I could be with. I dressed in my robes,and then went to the tavern to find some Assassins. And then there you were at the tavern,looking a bit sober." She smiled,closing her eyes and breathed deeply. She felt like a huge weight suddenly left on her shoulders,and she felt happy about it.

She grabbed her bag from Connor's hand and rushed up the stairs without another word. When she disappeared,he gave out a huge sigh. She finally exposed herself to him,which made him satisfied. He was glad that she had her trust in him. It made him more happier than usual and loved her even more.

'Wait,loved?' He couldn't bear to look at her smiling and laughing at him. It seemed too difficult that he could control himself and continue the bet. It looked like he could be the one to loose himself before she does. The feelings that grew inside of him bloomed into something more,something that he proudly call it as love.

"Connor?" He swiftly looked at the direction of her voice,seeing her walk down the stairs slowly,torturing him by looking at her shy (e/c) eyes and her pouting lips. He really controlled the urge to kiss her right now.

"Umm...I just want to thank you." She gave him a small smile,her head tilted to look at him straight into his warm,brown eyes. He clenched his fists as he finally surrendered himself and gave himself a chance. "Thank you for taking me in your home and making me a member of the Assassins. Its really a great honor to-"

"I'm sorry." He suddenly blurted,slamming himself along with (y/n) to the wall behind her. She gasped,looking at him with wide eyes and blushed. "C-Connor-"

"I like you,(y/n)." He snapped,making her mouth close shut and just looked at him with a shocked look. "I...I couldn't control myself...my emotions..." He trailed off,leaning down to let his forehead touch hers almost lovingly. His warm breath mixed with hers,their heart beats having the same tempo. "Maybe you weren't just an easy bet after all..." He whispered,making (y/n) look at him angrily. (Y/n)'s eyebrows furrowed,gritting her teeth and growled,"Why you-"

He cut her off by slamming his lips with hers,kissing her passionately and wrapped an arm around her waist,his other hand pushing the nape of her neck lightly towards him. She moaned into the kiss,warping herself into another universe Connor brought her to. Sparks were everywhere,she felt her chest tighten at the passion they shared in the kiss. She felt bliss and the passion he gave unto her. When her lips molded with his,they felt like they were both the missing puzzle pieces that are finally together. And at last,they did.

They pulled away,breathless and looking dazed into each other's eyes. Connor closed his eyes and pressed his forehead on hers. "I'm sorry,(y/n). But my friends unintentionally let me join into this bet. They thought that I could steal your heart in a few days or weeks. But then one day was all I got for me to fall in love with you." He whispered,looking at her fascinating (e/c) eyes. "You were the one who stole my heart,not the other way around." He kissed her again,much slower but filled with love. She closed her eyes and let herself drown into love,the feeling she really missed the most. When they pull away,she became breathless and smiled. Connor smiled back,kissing her cheek and whispered on her ear tenderly.

"I...I love you,(y/n). And that's how I really feel."
