'No! No, no, no. no!' He panicked when she mentioned him. It didn't matter what she said, it mattered that she talked about him. He looked away, hoping to pretend he hadn't heard her. Pretend he didn't exist. Maybe his father would ignore him too?
The devil sighed " victor…your not in trouble but I would suggest you leave" he said sending death glares at Ravenna who was smirking
He nodded lightly, feeling sick to his stomach. He walked out the door, and once it was shut, bolted off towards his quarters.
As soon as Victor left the room the devil did something putting Ravenna in excruciating pain and she let out a scream which echo through the walls.
Viktor could hear it, but he was too busy running. He knew he should go back- but he couldn't make himself. He was too much if a coward. Running into his room, he slammed his door and dropped to the floor.
The devil saw her greatest fears and made that reality I was appearing in her hand as her eyes widen
"I'm such a wimp!" He yelled at himself, throwing something against the wall. "Come on Viktor, you have to go back. You gotta." He demanded himself looking at his reflection. "Why is this so hard!?"
The devil left the room. Ravenna in a pool of her own blood everywhere was slashed she was beaten up pretty bad
Viktor heard the screaming stop, and he made himself leave to go see her. "I can't believe I just did that." He told himself horrified at his fear to protect her. "I'm a monster.." He whispered as he made his way to where he had left Ravenna.
Ravenna laid there heavily breathing still awake fortunately although she couldn't see out of her left eye
He pushed the door open silently, and felt himself stop functioning. He, in very articulated movements, made his way over to her and bent down. "R-Ravenna?"
Ravenna shifted her eyes to him not a single word leaving her mouth she smiled gently but immediately Winced from the pain
"Hey, don't do that. I need to get you cleaned up." He said softly petting her head. "I'll be back."
She nodded closing her eyes for once in her life actually terrified and she was pretty sure it was obvious as her bottom lip quivered
Viktor grabbed what he could to fix her up, and carried it over. "This may hurt some." He whispered feeling warm tears run down his face.
She nodded, using some of the last bit of strength she had to cut the side of his cheek using her thumb to wipe away his tears
He cleaned up her scars, and wrapped them up to his best extent. He tried not to think about her gentle touch on his face, but he didn't want not to. Gently leaning down, he kissed her forehead gently. "There, that's what I can do."
She nodded "thank you"she said sincerely slowly starting to remove her hand from the side of his face
He took her hand in his. "Can I carry you?" Viktor asked with a light frown.
She nodded, " yeah" she said after wincing in pain once more God I hurt her whole body was in absolute pain
He carefully lifted her up, and held her close. "We're going to my room." He whispered walking out of the room with her.
She giggled as he carried her.
"Shush, you're gonna get us caught." He mumbled slipping down the hallway to his own room.
" sorry" she mumbled laying her head on his chest with a sigh
He pushed his door open, and gently shut it after going in. "Alright, we're safe for now." He breathed setting her on his bed.
