Pairing: ShalnarkxReader and UvoginxReader, not a triad relationship. They just share. Synopsis: It's been a couple of months now since Shalnark and Uvogin kidnapped you. One-shot!

It's been months now since Shalnark and Uvogin took you. It felt like years to you, however. Despite that, they still didn't trust you to not try to escape while they were on missions. As if the apartment wasn't filled with security cameras tracking down your every move.

That's why you were currently with Pakunoda's darling Katerine. She wasn't the darling who has been with the troupe the longest. That would be Chrollo's darling. But she was the one that was the most trusted. Both by the troupe themselves and the other darlings.

Being Pakunoda's darling meant there was no way she could keep any secrets. She didn't have a single thought of trying to escape or free the other darlings. But at the same time, she was very kind and motherly to all the other darlings.

She stepped up to that role because when she first got there Chrollo and Feitan already had a darling of their own. Chrollo's darling Mary was constantly drugged to keep her mellow. Which at the same time made her incapable of taking care of herself While Feitan's darling Sasha was locked up somewhere. Making her crave any kind of human interaction other than Feitan.

Feeling bad for the girls Katerine convinced Pakunoda to let her befriend them. Because while she was held captive as much as Sasha and Mary, her collar wasn't as tight as theirs and her leash was considerably longer.

It took a while but she managed to earn the trust of the troupe and her fellow darlings. Except maybe Feitan who's still convinced she's trying to steal Sasha away from him.

Despite knowing this all you weren't sure if you considered Katerine a friend or a foe.

She offered you the emotional support you needed but she had no intentions of ever helping you escape. It made you wary of her. it didn't help that she belonged to the woman who could see memories. So despite needing to vent you were careful with your words so Shalnark and Uvogin couldn't take advantage of you pouring your heart out to a friend.

Currently, the two of you were sitting on the couch watching a tv-show. The tension was suffocating when one of the characters on the screen mentioned a kidnapping. They were currently discussing the ways they would try to escape. Which made you turn to Katerine.

"Have you ever thought of escaping?" You asked as casually as you could.

"No, can't say I ever have," Katerine said before taking a sip of her tea.

"I have." You admit. "I think about it every day."

You close your eyes as you lean back.

"Do you want to know how?" You peeked at her through your eyelashes, a grin on your face.

She raised her eyebrow at you as she gestured around the room. Normally they weren't there but because you were staying here Shalnark installed some security camera's all throughout the apartment. They were quite obvious too. That combined with the fact that you knew Pakunoda would look through her memories in search of you doing anything suspicious made her confused on why you would offer to tell her something like this.

"Don't worry. You won't get in trouble. You would never try this plan." You chuckle. Making Katerine even more confused than she already was.

"You're too sane for this. I am too by the way. But maybe soon. Maybe next month. Hell, maybe even tomorrow."

You sigh as you close your eyes. But you could still feel Katerine's gaze on you.

"Once Shalnark has driven me insane with his insistence on watching me eat breakfast instead of eating himself. Or Uvo has… I meant Uvogin." You cringe at the way you accidentally called him by a nickname. "Uvogin has pushed me over the edge by the way he insists on having me on his lap whenever we're sitting. When they pushed me over the edge and I'm desperate beyond believe I got one ace up on my sleeve."

While your eyes are still closed you could tell Katerine was intrigued. Needing no prompting from her you kept talking.

"You see despite all the security cameras they don't always lock the door. Cocky fuckers… They're not wrong but still."

"But one day they'll be wrong," you grit your teeth as you sat up straight. Looking at Katerine who still wasn't sure where you were going with this.

"One day I will walk out of that door," you say with the conviction of a woman on a mission.

When you don't elaborate Katerine frowns at you.

"And then what?" She tilted her head at you.

"That's the thing." You grinned at her, a spark of intensity in your eyes. Which caused her to frown at you.

"…and then nothing." You say as if that makes any sense whatsoever.

"Nothing?"

"That's right! Nothing. Of course, this plan heavily relies on a few things. It assumes they won't just tackle me to the ground before I reach the door. But it also assumes they don't immediately chase me outside.

If I do things right they won't. Instead, Shalnark will have to check the security cameras first to see where I went.

Do you know what they'll see?"

Katerine could only shake her head.

"Me standing in front of the door. Doing nothing but stand there."

"Stand there?"

"I never said this was a permanent escape. But it would be an escape nonetheless."

"Sweetie?" Katerine asked, in a tone that reminded you of your own mother. The reason why you were so comfortable letting your mouth ramble like this around her despite the consequences.

"Maybe not for long, but I can see Shalnark giving me ten minutes of freedom. He'll convince Uvogin to let me be for a few moments. Of course, it will come with a price. Uvogin will want to break my legs to prevent me from doing it again. Shalnark will stop that though. He's both way too attracted to my legs and it will just be a hassle that's more trouble than it's worth.

I'm not sure what he would suggest instead. Maybe tie me to bed until I learned my lesson. Or implement trackers in my body. Though I'm pretty sure he's done that already."

"And that would be worth it for five minutes of freedom?"

"Not right now, but ask me again in a week and I might answer differently.

<3

Shalnark laughed as you correctly guessed what he would do if you went through with your ludicrous little escape plan. If you could even call it a plan that is. The sheer simplicity of your plan was the only reason Uvogin and himself could laugh about it.

"I suppose we didn't pick her for her smarts," Shalnark chuckled. A fond smile as he watched you on his phone. When he looked up he saw Uvogin with a bright smile.

While it was a regular nickname of his he couldn't help but feel something when he heard you call him Uvo even if it was by mistake.

"Wanna bet how long it will take for her to go through with this plan?" Uvogin grinned.

Shalnark's ever-present smile somehow widened. Something he tended to do whenever you were involved in something.

"You're on."
