Hi!! I just saw your pepper spray fic and it was sooooo cute. I was wondering if I could request of Fem!readerx Draken where Reader just lost a fist fight?

yay my first request. Hope I was able to meet the demand.

Defeat

Pairing: Draken x Fem!reader

Summary: You just lost in a fist fight and Draken is there to help afterwards

Warnings: Mentions of violence. Lots of swearing

Draken pulled over when he felt his phone vibrate in his pocket. A smile formed when he pulled it out to see your name on the screen.

"Hey babe. What's up?"

"Ryu?" the voice that comes through is a hoarse and he pulls the phone back to check the caller id, just to make sure it was indeed you who called.

"Yeah, what's up?"

"I kinda need your help."

He was alert now. Rarely did you ask for help.

"What happened?"

"Just come pick me up? I'm at the bookstore"

"...Right. I'll be there"

Everything about that call was weird. For one thing, it was rather late. The bookstore should have closed an hour ago. You should've been home by now. Another thing was your voice. You sounded...odd. He couldn't put his finger on it, but there was definitely something wrong.

When he gets there, as he deduced, the store was closed. He pulls out his phone and calls you. Seconds later he can hear your ringtone faintly from around the building. He felt fear prick him the closer he got to the sound. His heart drops when he finds your bruised and battered body laying in a heap of garbage.

"Y/N!" You turned weakly to see him kneeling beside you, worry evident on his face.

"What the hell happened to you?!" You winced a bit.

"Too loud Ryu"

How did this happen?!

Who dared to lay a finger on you?!

He was already imagining the worst of the worst, when you revealed your injuries came from losing a fight.

A fight.

He blinked twice before a frown settled on his face and with a loud 'tch!', he scoops you up then carefully places you on his bike. He doesn't miss the little noise of pain you make when he ties the two of you together with his jacket. He ordered you to hold on tight and with the little strength left in you, you cling to him as the motorcycle moves.

You exited the bathroom out of your dirty clothes and in a sports bra and a pair of shorts Draken got from one of the girls your size. Now the full extent of your injuries were on display and it made hurt him to see your beautiful skin be marked this way. You let him lead you to his bed and sat in awkward silence as he began to work.

You winced as he spread ointment on one of your many, many cuts. Minus the little grunts you made everytime he touched you, you were quiet for the most part. That was until he wrapped a bandage a little too tight

"That hurts."

"Sorry" he apologized before continuing but then it happens again.

"Ease up will ya"

"Chill out." He says in a more passive aggressive tone that ticks you off. He continues to wrap and once again squeezes too hard.

"Dude!"

"What?! You were fighting a while ago and now you can't handle a little sting?!"

Yup. He was pissed.

"Don't be a dick, you know that shit hurts!"

"Well we wouldn't be here if you just listened to me and stop getting into fights!" You rolled your eyes at him and his twitched in annoyance

"I can handle myself just fine in a fight"

"Yeah, and that's what you're here all beat up right?" He scoffed

"Spare me Ryu. I didn't call you because I needed a lecture. And you are the last person who should be criticizing me right now." you shot back, glaring at him through narrowed eyes.

He dragged a hand down his face in frustration before continuing to work. He knows you fight, and while he does think you're a decent fighter, he also knows that your skill could use work. Don't get him wrong, just knowing how to fight is impressive on it's own in his opinion, but you weren't exactly an expert fighter like him. More around the strength of the average Toman member. Awhile back, he asked if you would consider avoiding fights in total.

Was it hypocritical of him of all people to ask that? Absolutely. But he couldn't handle it if he lost you an anyway. You won most of the fights you engaged in, sure, but he really didn't want you risking your life like that. All it took was one psycho who would be crazy enough to take things too far for whatever reason.

He knew first hand. Take that one idiot, Kiyomasa, who stabbed him after he got called out for starting fight clubs with Toman's name for example. Or Osanai, who tried to stab Mikey because he couldn't handle his defeat. Hell even Pah turned to stab someone for revenge. His experience with them and many others like that he's encountered left him worried for your safety mostly.

Of course he explained this to you and after a bit of back and forth on the matter, you promised you'd stop or at least try to. Yet here you were.

"This is exactly the type of shit I wanted you to avoid" he said before turning to the first aid box.

"But no." He continues "you just had to go and get-"

When he raises the cotton swab to deal with a cut that sat right below your eye he froze. Was it a trick of the light or was he seeing right and your eyes were indeed actually watering? He gets his answer when a drop rolls down your face.

You were stewing in your angry thoughts when you realized he wasn't speaking or touching you all of a sudden. When you focus on him you see a frown on his face and just then you feel your face get wet as if....

Fuck!

The last thing you wanted to do was cry in front of him. You turn away sharply and immediately regret it when you feel the pain that came. God you felt dumb.

"Don't look at me!"

You yelled, furiously wiping tears away. He felt awful now. He didn't mean to make you cry. He was just worried. He reached out and cuped your face.

"Hey" his tone is soft, and so is the touch that lures you to turn your head back to him. He throws the cotton aside and pulls you onto his lap carefully to avoid hurting you and in turn you wrap your arms around him

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to yell."

"I know" you answer truthfully, tears and sniffles still came through.

"Don't be mad at me." You shook your head.

"that's not it. It's not you"

Not him? Then why were you crying?

What on earth was he even asking? You're sitting right in his lap all beat up. What else could it be if not the pain you felt from your wounds. That had to be it.

"Ahh I get it. I'll get you some pain meds. The point should be down in a-"

"It's not the pain!" He gave up on trying to guess and asked,

"Then what is it?"

"...I...I lost" you finally say through your cries.

He was confused. You've lost fights before and he'd never ever seen you get this worked up about any of them. What could have possibly gone so wrong in that fight that had the strongest woman he knew crying?

"What happened exactly?"

You waved the owner goodbye as he locked up. You made it just around the corner the shop was on when you caught sight of four guys.

Nothing out of the ordinary, you first thought, but they had formed some sort of arch around something. The closer you looked, you found a scared looking boy at the center of it being held by his shirt. One pulled his bag off and started going through it despite his protests. Just then, one caught you staring and tried to scare you off with threats.

"Gangsters are robbing kids now? Fucking pathetic"

This caught the attention of all of them and they backed away from the boy and headed for you. The boy took the chance to pick up his now discarded bag and run away. They surrounded you in seconds. You waved a hand in front of your face after one took his cigarette out and blew the smoke in your direction before speaking.

"Dumb bitches like you don't think before they open their fucking mouths do they?"

"Better than a bunch of grown assholes that pick on kids. Have some standards dude, and pick on someone your own size."

He stared before blowing out a puff of smoke in your face again.

"Someone oughta teach you a thing or two about respecting men."

"What men? All I see in front of me are four monkeys"

A vein appeared on the leader's forehead as continued to glare, but you glared right back, not feeling nervous or intimidated by him.

"I'll give you a chance, If you get on your knees, I'll let you off. I'm a man of my word. Besides, I'd hate to ruin such a pretty face"

Now the smartest thing to do would have been to take the offer and just apologize. The boy was safe, you'd get away unscathed and you'd be upholding your promise to your boyfriend. Nothing to lose really.

"can't say I feel same about that ugly mug"

If only you weren't stubborn and prideful as hell.

He growled then went in for a punch but you evaded, holding your own fists up and assume a fight position. They took notice of your stance and burst out laughing. That was fine, sure, but what irritated you was that they continued to laugh after a full minute.

"what the hell is so funny?! Get over here so I can kick your asses!"

They only laughed harder.

"Aww that's cute"

"Someone's seen too many movies"

"Bitch, this is your last chance to say sorry" you grew angry at their taunts and punched one across the face, sending him to the ground. All laughter ceased. They immediately grew serious and engaged you.

You did good. You were able to hold your own much to their surprise, but eventually you were starting to get tired trying to keep up with all of them at once. The boys before you noticed this and snickered, none looking even half as tired as you did. You threw a rather weak punch which was stopped by a hand.

"What happened to kicking our asses? Is that all you've got? We haven't even started yet"

The air is punched out of you when a fist collides with your gut making you double over. You get kicked in the back and you land on your face. You were pulled by your hair until you found yourself on your knees in front of them.

"That's exactly where you should have been from the start."

Before you could snap back you get kicked in the head.

"Don't think we'll let you off just because you're a girl. You'll get what you deserve"

"That's what you get for tryna play hero."

"Shoulda taken the chance when ya had it!"

You curled into a ball as they kicked and stomped you. You don't know how long you laid there, but when they stopped, they dragged you to the back of the building and tossed you on the trash pile.

"now that, is exactly where you belong. With the rest of your kind" the leader said before spitting directly on your face.

They took pictures and videos all while mocking you, as you laid there before they left.

Of course you weren't expecting an easy win given their size and numbers but you weren't expecting such a humiliating defeat either.

"The hell?! That was totally outta line!"

If he was mad before he was livid now.

'Delinquents' like those really pissed him off. It was one thing to beat someone in a fight, that was fair and technically you did start the fight. But to go as far as they did?! Especially on a girl?! His veins were popping just thinking about it!

Revolting

"Hey it wasn't your fault, it was a 4v1"

"I doesn't matter if the odds were fair or not, I still got my ass kicked. I couldn't back my talk up and I the end I lost. And it was so fucking humiliating!"

You buried your face deeper in his chest, still very upset about it. He held your chin between his thumb and curved indexed finger then tilted upwards to capture your lips in a short kiss. You pulled apart but he still held your head in that position, making sure to maintain eye contact.

"Don't let assholes like that make you cry. If you ask me, you didn't really lose. You stood your ground and helped a kid. Most guys don't even have the balls to do what you did"

He says before kissing you again.

"You were brave" his lips move to the cut under your eye.

"Very brave"

"Very. Very. Brave" he says, kissing a different injury after every word.

"Ryu, stop" you whine in embarrassment.

"What? It's true isn't it?" he said before pecking your lips one last time.

He gives a gentle smile and you couldn't help but smile just a tiny bit back.

Did you feel better?

....... Maybe just a little.

"Thank you, Ryu"

"Anytime"

You kiss again. It starts to became a bit more heated and soon you were straddling him. You let out a low groan when his lips move to a particular spot on your neck but before he can go further, a loud knock interrupts you two.

"Hey Kenny! The girls and I are playing poker, wanna come? We've got pizza" One of the girls called out. He looks at you with a raised brow and you nod, prompting him to yell back

"Sure! Give us a sec!"

Well it's not like you could've gone far in your shape anyway.

He finished tending to the last of your bruises and gave you painkillers before you both join the girls. Draken was silently thanking them when he noticed you were in a far better mood while you were playing. You played till well past midnight before they ended the last round on feeling tired. You and Draken head back to his room. You make yourself as comfortable as you can on the bed. When he joins you, he pulls you so you're flush against his chest.

"Good night princess" he whispers, pressing a kiss onto your cheek before putting his own head down on the pillow and closing his eyes.

At least your night ended on a good note.

Pepper Spray

Pairing: Draken x Fem!reader Summary: Draken tries to help a stranger out and it did not go as he expected

Warning: Brief mentions of violence

Draken was taking a walk. Not in the noisy, lively entertainment district of Shibuya, but in a quieter neighborhood. Sure he loved to ride, but sometimes a walk felt just as relaxing to him and tonight was one of those moments. He found himself at a cross road then stopped, noticing a girl across the street before him.

She looked uneasy, like she was nervous about something. She made a move, like she was about to cross the street but decided against it and moved to the side. He didn't pay much attention to her till he saw a hooded figure following her. He thought about ignoring it, maybe she knew the guy. Then he replayed the situation in his head and realizes how unlikely that was.

Worrying for her safety in case it really was a bad person, he followed to make sure everything was alright. That wasn't creepy right? Waiting till they were at a reasonable distance, he follows quietly. After a few minutes, he's sure he lost them till he hears a shout from an alley up ahead. The guy had a knife pointed at you and you were backed against a wall, cradling your hand.

"I SAID GIVE ME YOUR WALLET, NO MORE TRICKS!"

You were walking along, on your way home from the grocery store, minding your own business when you felt something strange, like another presence was there. You turn slightly to see you were being followed by someone in a hood. Silently panicking, you look for your phone, wanting to smack yourself when you remember you left it at home. You wanted to cross the street, a little way up on the other side was a diner. If you could make it there without making the one following you suspicious, you would be able to get some help. You make a move to cross but then you see the sketchy looking guy on the other side.

Black leather jacket, imposing figure, and was that a tattoo on the side of his head?! Were you going to get attacked by two people?! You turn to the side and continue walking. You walk faster, hoping to lose them but in the reflection of a store window, you see them still on your tail. You turn a corner and before you can break into a sprint, the guy from before cuts you off with a knife pointed at you, forcing you to walk backwards into an alley in fear.

"I'll make this quick, hand over your wallet and I won't stab you"

"Please -"

"Shut the fuck up and give me the wallet" You scrambled to pull out the object you needed. When the cool feel of metal touched your fingers, you whip out the item; a can of pepper spray. Unfortunately, the can has issues and no matter how hard you squeezed the pump wouldn't move. Your attacker didn't like that you tried to fight back very much so he kicked it out of your hands. You let out a pained shout, your hands hurt from the kick.

"I SAID GIVE ME YOUR WALLET, NO MORE TRICKS!"

You comply, taking your wallet out and allowing him to snatch it. When the mugger turns around, he doesn't walk far before he sees a familiar figure that makes him stop dead in his tracks.

"Draken!?" The name came from his mouth out of fear. What he wanted to know was why a guy like that was here of all places at this time of night. He wasn't about to fight the vice commander of a fucking gang. That would be suicide! He considered threatening him with his fake knife, then just settled on running away. Of course, Draken wouldn't let him so easily and caught him before he could run even inches past him.

"Leave it" the guy does just that and Draken let's go of his hood.

"If I ever see you trying to rob someone ever again I'll knock all your fucking teeth out. Am I clear?"

"Y-yes sir"

Pathetic

"Good. Now beat it" you'd think he was a professional athlete with how fast he ran out of there.

Draken approached you, about to hand you your wallet, when a squeal followed by a painful burn in his eyes made him scream and drop it.

"WHAT THE HELL?!" The girl runs past him and he calls out to her

"HEY WAIT! GET BACK HERE!"

The mugger turned away from you but at the same time the second guy from earlier walked in.

"Draken!" The first said. You knew it. He really was another bad guy after you. He was probably working with the mugger. While they spoke, you pick up your can for defense. You do a little test pump and find your can to be ok now. The first guy runs out and the second approaches you. With all the confidence in you, you hold the can away from you and press down and this time the can gives you no issues.

"WHAT THE HELL?!" The guy yells and you manage to run around him while he was blinded and dashed out the alley.

"HEY WAIT! GET BACK HERE!"

Yeah right. He was real stupid if he thought you were just going to stand there and let him attack you. You ran and ran and didn't stop till you were back in the safety of your home. You collapse on the couch, kicking yourself about how all this could've been avoided if you just watched your movie without any snacks.

The school bell rang for your lunch break. You walked with your best friend down the halls, discussing your lunch options. Up ahead you see what looks like a fight with a small crowd.

"Ugh. The boys are fighting again. Don't they ever get tired?"

"It looks more like a beat down than a fight. Who is that?"

You both go closer, standing with the small crowd that watched. There was a lot of movement and you couldn't see who was who all that clearly but what you could definitely tell was that someone was kicking ass with zero stress. A short boy, one you didn't recognize, was leaning against a wall. You noticed when his head turned to you and you returned the stare. It wasn't really an intimidating one or a rude one, more like he was trying to figure something out. He studied you for a while before turning back to the fight.

Well that was weird.

"Hey Kenny?" he calls out. The voice that responds sounds oddly familiar to your ears.

"Yeah what?" Shorty points at you. "Isn't that the girl we came here for?"

The guy who was previously hunched over, stands up to his full, intimidating height with a boy hanging by his shirt from his fists. Then he turns around.

Blond hair in a braided ponytail and the sides of his head shaved down to the scalp, revealing a dragon tattoo.

"You."

Oh no

You run off in the opposite direction and Draken scowls.

"I told you you need to smile more Kenny, one look at your face and she went running" Mikey teases. Ignoring him, he turns his attention to the asshats that tried to stop him before.

"Ok new game, see the chick that just ran, get her. Better not think of running away, I've seen all your faces"

The injured boys got off the floor and ran? shuffled? They moved the same direction as you. About thirty minutes in each boy came back empty handed.

"Dammit how hard is it to find one person?!"

The boys bowing before him and Mikey said nothing.

"Kenny" Mikey had your wallet open and was looking at something. He moved it closer so Draken could see.

It was a card for the public library not far from here. You must like reading. An idea surfaces.

"Hey did any of you check your library?"

There were murmurs, none giving the answer he wanted, some even questioning if they even had a library.

He really wanted to smack them.

"Alright lie down on your stomachs, no spaces in between and you" he pointed at one "take me to the library"

You hid in the one place you hoped no one would look for you; the library. You were the only one in there as the librarian was out on her break. Feeling bored you look through the shelves and pull out a book, skimming through it, before picking another.

"Watchu got there?"

"A book of poems" you answer thoughtlessly.

Wait.....

To your side is the shorty from before, who gives you a smile and a wave

"Hi there"

Wait if he's here then-!

"Found her yet Mikey?" You froze at the deep voice behind you, afraid to turn around.

"Oh, you did" Draken stood in front of you now. You were practically shaking in your shoes. Your heart drops when he pulls his jacket back and reaches into the inner pocket for something.

A weapon?!

You clasp your hands together in front of you.

"Please don't hurt me!"

Draken pauses, completely confused by your outburst.

".....Eh?"

"I don't have a lot of money on me right now, only a thousand yen if that's ok, I'll give it to you but you have to promise not to hurt me. If you're mad about the spraying, I'll pay you for that later!"

'Mikey' almost fell over laughing.

"You-! Do you really think I came all this way just to rob you?!"

His yell made you jump "I-I'm sorry!"

"Tch! I just came to return this" he pulls it out. You are both relaxed and confused when you see your wallet in his hand.

"Huh?"

"Well go on, take it" he hands it to you. Doing a quick check, you find your student id, your library card, and your money still intact.

"Everything alright?"

"Yeah, thank-, wait so last night you weren't trying to rob me too?"

"No! I was trying to save you from that guy! Why would you even assume that?!"

"You looked scary!"

Well, Mikey did end up falling over.

"Ya took one look at me and said 'Yeah that's a criminal' ? "

Ok he really can't blame you there.

"But you had a leather jacket, a-and you have a tattoo on the side of your head! Not to mention you're huge! And that other guy knew your name so-"

"So you thought I was his friend or something?"

"Yes I did . But clearly I was wrong and- ohhh my goodness I pepper sprayed you!"

The clarity of the situation hits you, leaving you horrified.

"Yeah, you did. That shit hurt like hell"

You immediately bowed at the waist "I'm sorry! I had no idea!" Lucky for you, Draken didn't hold it against you.

"It's all good. I scared you and you defended yourself. I apologize for that. I'm Draken" he stuck his hand out for a shake.

"Y/n. Please don't apologize to me, you're the one got hurt."

You both look at the boy on the ground who's laughter was slowly reducing.

" I assume that's Mikey?"

"Yes, that laughing dumbass is Mikey" Mikey pauses to complain.

"Ken-chin, you're so mean to me" he whines while getting off the floor.

"how can I make this up to you Draken?"

"Eh. Don't worry about it Y/n"

"my conscience could never. The guilt would eat me alive."

"We're cool. I didn't do this expecting anything in return"

"At least let me buy you a meal to apologize. And another to thank you for going through the trouble" you offer.

"You don't need- "

"Yay! What are we eating?" Mikey cut in. Draken gave him a side glare

"Not you, idiot!"

"Huh? Why not Kenny?"

"Last I checked, you didn't get pepper sprayed, get your own apology meal"

"You were just about to reject it!"

You laughed at their antics. The bell rang, signifying the end of recess.

"Well I've gotta get back to class" You scribbled your number on an old receipt.

"Text me whenever you want me to return the favor. Whether it's a meal or anything really. It's the least I can do after everything" you hand him the piece of paper before waving them goodbye then exit, leaving the two in the quiet room. Draken was motionless for a while.

Did I just get a girl's number?

"Did you just get a girl's number?"

"Yeah, I guess I did" he's still processing what just went down.

"Ooh, Kenny has a date~"

"Shut up! We just met you moron, it's not a date!" Mikey continues to poke him in his red cheek.

"Awww Kenny's blushing, I've gotta tell the guys about this" Mikey says before running out.

"Don't you dare you little runt!"

When you return to class, the teacher isn't in yet. You plop down in your seat which was right next to the window and your best friend, who sat in front of you turned around.

"girl what happened?"

You explained the situation to your friend.

"And here I was thinking I could get your manga collection if they killed you" your friend says in disappointment.

"Thank you sooo much for worrying about me you ugly cockroach"

Your friend laughs.

" Did you get his number though?"

Just then your phone beeps and you open it to see a message from an unknown number.

'I see you'

You look around your class trying to figure out who sent it but then movement outside catches your attention. Looking out the window, you see Draken below. He waved at you, giving you a smirk that made your heart flutter a bit, before walking away with Mikey. You couldn't help but smile.

"Yeah, I did"

Saviour In Red

Pairing: Grell Sutcliff x Fem!reader

Summary: You're having the most horrible night in your entire life when a red clad stranger helps you

Warnings: Mentions of SA and blood, turn back if it triggers you

As the only girl in your family yet to be married, you were often faced one particular challenge. Your sisters, both older and younger had settled down with the oldest having a baby on the way. Naturally, family members often inquired and or mocked you about your lack of a partner. So much so that you couldn't have a family gathering in peace without your love life being brought up. Even outsiders would make comments here and there. It was exhausting but you didn't let it bother you too much. Of course you wanted to find your own partner to be happily wedded to but you believed you'd find that special someone when the time was right.

Though you patiently dreamt about the day that would happen, your mother wasn't as patient, which is what brought you to the very situation you're in. You sat opposite the son of a low ranking baron in an expensive restaurant. The food was good but the company could be better. You had nothing against him, he was handsome, you'd give him that, but you had no interest in the assets he was continuously boasting of. Even though he was regarded as low status as compared to other nobles, he was certainly loads richer than a commoner such as yourself. That fact had your mother practically jumping for joy when the baron's son himself had asked to take you on an outing.

According to him, he was captivated by your beauty and found himself walking over with his request before he had realized it. Unfortunately for you, your mother was with you when this happened and cut you off mid answer with an excited, 'she'll be ready!' Before you knew it they exchanged information then you parted ways; him to continue his errands and you being dragged away so your mother could make you more presentable for the night.

"Is the food to your liking?" He asks with a slight frown

"Yes it is. Delicious indeed" you offer a polite smile

"Hmm. Yes I'm sure it tastes good to you. As you're a commoner, this probably feels like heaven to you but for someone like me, it tastes rather bland. I should have taken you to my estate, the chefs prepare food way more appetizing than this. Of course only because they're provided with only the most quality ingredients from our rich fields. I'll take you next time. You'll be at my feet when we're done with the first course alone, begging for more"

Needless to say, you definitely didn't feel that spark. How you wished you could shove a bread roll in his mouth so he'd stop talking. Eventually, dinner was over. You humbly declined dessert, eager to just get away from him. He sat opposite you in the carriage, not saying a word. You thought it was odd. On your way to the restaurant you hadn't spent this much time on the road. It couldn't have been traffic, you hadn't stopped once since you started moving. You took a peek outside and realized something off. There were no houses and no people.

"Milord, forgive me, but I believe your coachman is taking us the wrong way."

The smirk he gives you makes you tense. He moved himself next to you and you scoot away trying to create distance between you. His hand reached for your face but you swat it away.

"Where is these vessel headed?" You ask, voice laced with incoming fear. He had you backed into the corner of the tiny space you were in

"You know, usually after mentioning a few things my family possesses girls throw themselves at me. But not you. In fact you didn't even seem interested in anything I had to say" His hand moves to your thigh, slowly pushing it up towards your regions

"What's your price? Every whore has one. Name it, I can give it to you. Anything at all, just ask. All I ask for in return is a night in my chambers"

You slap him across the face.

"You pig! No, that's an insult to the creature. You are far more disgusting because not even a pig would act the way you do. I demand you let me off this carriage immediately!"

He scowled before delivering a harsh slap that sends you down to the carriage floor. Getting down, he flips you over and slots himself between your legs before you had the chance to close them. You lost the struggle to keep his hands off you and within seconds had yours pinned down on either side of you.

"Listen here, I tried to be gentle with you but if you wish me to be rough then so be it. I was even nice enough to offer you riches in return, but now I think I'll just use you and dispose of you afterwards."

You were absolutely terrified.

"I-if you touch me I'll go to the Yard" your threat doesn't phase him in the slightest.

"Ha! Pathetic whore, all I need to do is pay off whoever's in charge. In fact I don't think I'd even need to. Who do you think they would believe?" He held both your hands with one of his and the other moved under your skirt.

"DON'T TOUCH ME!"

"You'd be the commoner who saw an opportunity to take advantage of a kindhearted noble for his wealth by making up ruthless stories about him in hopes of getting him to buy your silence. I can do whatever I want to you in this carriage and no one would know and if they did, they wouldn't care"

All he said sank into you like red hot knives. You went limp knowing he was right. There was no one who could help you. Neither now nor after what he was about to do. By the end of tonight you would be -. Tears clouded your vision.

"Are you going to cry now? What's wrong? What happened to all that fight you had in you huh? Where did that go?" he cackled.

"Please don't do this" you plead but it only excites the male above you.

"Shhhh. I'll take good care of you. In this carriage that is"

The carriage shook violently and your attacker frowned. Standing up, he opens the little slot between him and the coachman. "What's going on out there Philip?"

"Apologies Sir, we seem to have gone over a pothole, but it's alright now."

Before he could come down to continue his assault, the carriage jerked violently to the side before it tipped over. Screams came from all of you as the carriage rolled and tumbled. A few terrifying seconds later, it stops. The carriage is now tilted to the side but not completely. You pushed against the door, which was now slightly above you, till it opened. With great difficulty you were able to pull yourself out of the wooden structure and onto the grass.

Your body ached and you were no doubt covered in multiple bruises. You couldn't see another person or house around you. You were stranded in what looked like an open field. The nights events replayed in your head as you laid there and you found yourself sobbing in pain and relief. You heard creaking and turned your head to the side to see the carriage falling over on the opposite side. When the dust settles, you here a voice.

"Philip Watson, died at the age of 42 on October 6th, 1889. Cause of death, thrown off the driver's seat of a somersaulting carriage and into a tree after the wheel popped off because he drove over a pothole while under the influence of alcohol."

What the?

You crawled towards the voice, hoping to find help. When you look around the carriage, you see long, flowing hair as red as wild roses facing you.

"Now this bloke." The voice says in what sounded like disgust. "Joseph Wellington. Died at the age of 27 on October 6th 1889. Cause of death, crushed to death by his own carriage after trying to crawl out of it. Well it serves him right! How dare he try to lay those filthy hands on another woman! I should cut his hands off too! Although that would be pointless now that he's dead ....... Anywho back to work."

The words the stranger spoke made you look further around the carriage and as said there was a spray of blood and the torso of a man underneath the tilted carriage.

I'm going to be sick.

"Wait a second, that woman isn't on the 'To Die' list."

The person turns around and you both make eye contact. Despite prior events you found yourself feeling all.....fuzzy the more you looked. Unbeknownst to you, the red haired stranger felt same.

Grell loved the color red more than anything. Lipstick, roses, blood, anything red she adored. There you were, a woman so beautiful she almost felt jealous. Your lovely red dress and ruby lips (and the blood trails on your face) made you look splendid in her opinion.

"Beautiful..." you both say at the same time. You didn't hear her but she heard you and fought hard to keep a blush from showing. You take the stranger's outstretched hand, wincing when you are pulled to your feet.

"Thank you kind sir" the face before you twisted in displeasure.

"SIR?! Do I look like-?! Ok I do. How dare-! I'll have you know, I'm a fine woman! A lovely, delicate flower unfortunately born into the body of a man!" The stranger shouts angrily with dramatic body movements.

"A woman? I'm sorry I didn't know you identified as one. Forgive me. May I ask for your name my fair lady?"

Grell blushed. It'd been so long since someone addressed her so sweetly.

"Well you certainly are a smooth talker aren't you? It's Grell Sutcliffe"

Wait what was she thinking? And what were you thinking? This wasn't the time to flirt or worry about a misgendering! Focus Grell!

"Miss Grell, may I trouble you by asking you for your help?"

You look at the broken carriage, ugly memories surfacing again. Grell watches you clutch your arm. You looked back at her with teary eyes.

"I'd like to go home please"

You're shaking and your tears are beginning to spill. She understood. You were almost robbed of your innocence and almost died all on the same night. Anyone in your place would have broken down already. Bringing her fingers to her lips, she lets out a series of whistles and you hear rhythmic thumping. The horses formally attached to the carriage were back. You didn't even realize they were gone. You watch in awe as she tore off the leather straps with ease like it was made of paper.

"Luckily these boys broke away before the accident."

You let out a squeak when she scooped you up effortlessly like you weighed nothing, and placed you on one of them. She rode back to civilization and you gave her directions to your home. Your mother wasn't home. She left a note on the door saying she was over at a friend's house to help take care of her sick children. You wanted to go in yourself but after insistence from Grell, you directed her to your room.

"Thank you Grell."

"You stay right there. Don't move."

She walked out and you sat in bed as she instructed. After a while, she came back for you, pulling you to your bathroom where she had set up a bath for you.

"It has herbs in it, it should help with your injuries. Now let's get this off you"

You flinched when she reached for you, surprising both of you. You couldn't look at the kind stranger's face. You didn't mean to, Grell knew that. You were just scared.

"I won't harm you, I promise." With hesitation, you turned around, giving her access to the zip. She pulled down gently so as not to hurt you by accident.

"I'll be outside, take as much time as you need"

It stung when you got in but in a few minutes it wasn't as bad. You thought of random things to help take your mind off tonight but your thoughts always circled back. You stepped out of the tub, wiping the water off your body and putting on the nightgown Grell prepared for you before leaving the bathroom.

"All set?"

You nod.

You let her treat your wounds and tuck you in bed.

"Rest well" She turned to leave and you panicked, snatching her wrist

"Wait! Don't go! Please! I don't, I d-dont-" you hiccuped before you start bawling. She sat on your bed and pulled you in for a hug.

"Shh. Don't cry. That idiot is dead, you're safe. I'm not going anywhere, no one will hurt you while I'm here."

You sobbed harder as you held onto her.

"There, there, let it all out"

She felt her heart ache as you cried

Oh how she wished she was the one who ended the life of the man who made you feel this way.

"I'm here, I'm here"

She repeated as she rocked you back and forth till your sobs reduced to light sniffles. She realized you had fallen asleep when your body stopped trembling against hers. After laying you down and covering you up, she left. She wanted to stay with you, but she had work to do. She would definitely come back to check on you.

When you wake up the next morning you find a plate of your favorite food on your table. Before you conclude it was your mother's doing, you see a single red rose and you instantly knew it was your red haired savior from the night before.
