Adrien watched as Marinette slept on the bed he placed her on.
"So beautiful." He sighed. Adrien began stroking her hair and gazing at her parted lips which were like rose buds. He couldn't help himself, leaned down and kissed her lips.
"Kid are you sure about this?" Plagg asked.
"Be quiet. You'll wake her." Adrien whispered. "No one is to disturb her when she sleeps."
"And what exactly do you think she'll do when she wakes up? You think she'll be happy about being kidnapped?"
"I didn't want to do it but Father said there was no other way."
He looked over to see Marinette starting to wake up.
"Plagg leave us." Adrien ordered.
Plagg left the room, Marinette woke up to see herself in a magnificent bedroom which amazed her but she backed away in fear when she saw Adrien.
"Please don't be afraid." Adrien said. "I won't harm you."
"Who are you?"
"My name is Adrien, I am the god of death and destruction." He gently took her hand and kissed."And your husband."
"Husband?"
"Yes, Marinette I brought you here because I love you and I want to make you my wife."
"Wife?"
"If you marry me I promise to love and cherish always."
"No!" She said pulling her hand away. "How dare you! You have stolen me from my mother! How could I possibly marry a man who's forced me here against my will! That is not love!"
"I beg your forgiveness. My father said the only way to make you my wife was to bring you here."
"I demand that you return me home at once!"
"I can't, If I were to send you back now I would never see you again and I know I would die without you."
"But you cannot keep me here forever!"
"I don't intend to, I just plan to keep you here for awhile so that I may court you. When enough time passes and if you still wish to leave then I'll return you."
"You can't be serious."
"I am but I promise you that while you stay you will live like a princess, I'll give you anything you desire and obey any command."
"All I want is for you to leave me alone."
"As you wish."
He left her room and Marinette began to cry. Tikki who had been hiding flew to comfort her mistress.
"It will be okay Marinette but at least he won't hurt you."
"But now I must stay here alone in this dark world." She sobbed. "I hate the dark! And I hate him! I'll never marry him! I would rather die!"
Tikki couldn't bear to watch Marinette suffer, poor Adrien couldn't bear it either but it was the only way.
During the first few months she never left her room so food and drink was brought for her. Her meals were always cooked to perfection and tasted wonderful. Every morning a soothing bath was started for her by Adrien's servants and they would bring her new gowns and jewels for her to wear and books to amuse herself with though she liked them they weren't enough to sway her heart. She never spoke to Adrien and she couldn't bring himself to look at him.
"Marinette please come out." Adrien begged. "Please talk me or just look at me."
"I can't I'm too sad."
"Do you not like things I've given you?"
"They are nice I will admit but your world is so dark and cold and everything is dead. I miss things that are alive. I miss the sun and the flowers."
Hearing this, Adrien quickly went to a small part of his place and created a small opening in the ground that let in some sunlight. Next he convinced some wood nymphs to make a garden of flowers grow. Then he had Plagg dig a trench and connected it to a river up above them.
"Marinette? Could you come out? I have something you might like."
"No more gifts please."
"It's something I must show you but to see it you have to leave your room,"
"Alright."
She came out wearing the new white gown, necklace, pearl pin, and earrings he had given her.
"You look even more beautiful than I remembered."
"What is it you want to show me?"
He led her to the garden he made for her with the sun shining in, flowers growing, and water streaming in from the river through the trench. For the first time in months Marinette smiled. She ran to feel the warmth of the sunlight and to smell the sweet flowers.
"I hope this will make you happy."
"But how? I mean...this is. Is it really mine?"
"Only if it makes you happy."
"It does. Oh thank you. Thank you so much."
Adrien felt his heart warm when he saw Marinette's smiling face. Everyday he would watch her in the garden looking so happy and if she was happy it was all he wanted.
"It's so quiet here." Marinette said one day. "I wish there was music."
Adrien snapped his fingers and music filled the air. Marinette happily began dancing to it while laughing joyfully. Her laughter was the most wonderful thing he ever heard.
As the months went by Marinette found herself enjoying her time in the underworld, whatever she wished for it was given to her without complaint or hesitation not that she asked for much. Most of everything she got were gifts from Adrien who she started talking to.
"Are you happy here Marinette?" Adrien asked.
"I cannot lie I find myself feeling very content here."
"I'm so happy you feel that way. All I want is your happiness and your love."
"How can you love me? You hardly knew me before you brought me here."
"No I saw you once and fell in love with you instantly and I knew in my heart I just had to be with you."
"Tell me if you truly love me as much as you say you do why did you steal me away?" She asked him.
"I'm sorry I wanted to court you properly but your mother would never allow it so my father suggested that I bring you to live here with me. But he insisted I wait til harvest time when your mother was most busy. Until then I spent everyday watching you and my love only grew."
Marinette blushed and became touched by his words. He truly did love her, probably more than any other person in the world. After that she spent every moment of everyday with him, they dine together, they danced together, and they talked with each other. Soon Marinette discovered she loved him just as much as he loved her if not more.
One night she awoke in the dark to hear footsteps.
"Who's there?" She asked.
"It's me, I'm only here to drop something off." Adrien said. "Tomorrow is your last day here."
"Is it?"
"Yes. I have the ring that would've been yours if you married me but if I put it on your bedside table you shall be home in the morning."
"You're really letting me go?"
"I am I love you so much and want nothing more than to be with you forever however I won't force you to stay here any longer but may I request something?"
"What?"
"A kiss goodbye. Once you're gone I will be alone and very sad but I at least want the soft touch of your kiss to remember you by."
"No."
"Oh..." He said sadly.
"Not a kiss goodbye because I'm not leaving."
"What?"
"I love you and I want to become your wife."
"Are you sure?"
"You've been so kind and good to me. In my dreams I see myself being held in the arms of a man who would love me always and now I realize that man is you."
She felt the bed dip as he climbed in next to her kissing her passionately. His lips licked across hers begging for entrance which she gave him as she opened her mouth. He then broke away and begin to kiss her hand, then her arm, and finally her neck which he sucked on contently. Marinette couldn't help but moan and run her fingers through his blonde hair.
"Ahh...Adrien." She moaned.
"My love." He whispered, lightly kissing her neck. "My one and only."
He removed his shirt and began to take off her night gown.
"Wait." She stopped him.
"It's okay if you don't want to." He reassured her.
"No, you are my husband and I am your wife. I want you to make love to me."
With those words said he pulled the blanket over them and lifted her nightgown off. She gasped and pushed herself against his chest and closed her eyes in shame.
"Adrien I-"
"Shhh." He cupped her face and made her look at him. "You're so beautiful."
For the rest of the night Marinette moaned and sighed as Adrien kissed and stroked her body while whispering sweet nothings to her. Soon the two became one and they fell asleep peacefully in each other's arms as husband and wife.
