Found you

Your fingers lightly twitched as you tried waking up. Upon opening your eyes, a white silk of some sort shielded your gaze, preventing you from glancing at your surroundings. Judging by how you were laying, you were on a bed, most likely Yami's. Blurred flashbacks raked your memory as you thought about what he had done.

He had taken you.

Standing up from the bed, you slowly but surely felt around you in an attempt to find your phone or at least something to defend yourself with. As soon as you stood, a slight chuckle came from across the room,

"You've awoken"

Gulping thickly, you tried to find a way to respond, but with all you had on your mind, you couldn't. Soft footsteps pounded against the floor, in the direction of where you were standing. Although you couldn't see him, you felt his presence directly in front of you,

"It's alright (Y/n). I know this is difficult for you."

At his statement, you couldn't help but scoff quietly. Does your lover think it's okay to take your virginity, Mark you, then kidnap you?? You crossed your arms, no longer biting your tongue,

"You know what's hard? To understand why I am here again."

Yami sighed quietly, closing the small proximity between your bodies,

"I did this for you", he grabbed your hand, pressing a soft kiss to your knuckles,

"I did this for us."

You retreated from his hold, cowering back until you hit the wall. Unbeknownst to you, Yami gloomily stepped out of the room, locking the door before shutting it. He thought of ways to confront you about the full situation in order to settle things the right way. Walking to the desk he had in his work room, he began to write a letter, fully explaining his actions as he hard time verbally explaining himself. Back in his room, you sat on the bed blindfolded in deep thought. You decided to take a nap for the time being.

After a few minutes of restless sleep, you stood up, peeling the blindfold away from your eyes with the finger nails that had yet to break off. Looking around the room, you caught sight of an envelope that had been underneath the door. Grabbing the white, flattened material, you carefully unraveled it to see a beautifully inked letter,

"(Y/n). I know my apologies will never heal the pain I had put you through, but please know, I apologize. The reason I had brought you back, was to take care of you. With the mark you had received, it is my duty to protect you. Vampires become mates through marking each other. After this, a marriage is initiated. If mates are far from each other, they will begin to feel an ache. If one mate is in pain, the other will also feel pain. I do not expect you to accept me, not for a long time, but, allow me to help you. If I initiate our marriage, you will be protected from other vampires. I plan to give you all of the time you need to decide. But, if you recklessly leave me again, I will not hesitate to keep you to myself, my love. I leave the rest up to you. Once again, I apologize."
