Yandere!Maomao X Reader X Yandere!Jinshi Please don't read this if you are uncomfortable with the yandere! tw: possessive behavior, eunuch-related themes, stupid funny youth ٩(。•́‿•̀。)۶
It was nearing lunchtime. Maomao finally decided to take a break. She set the box down on the table, wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve, and glanced around in search of you. You were nearby, carefully arranging ingredients in their proper places. She wanted to call out to you to invite you to eat together, but she didn’t get the chance.
The front door swung open, and Jinshi glided in as gracefully as a butterfly, with his indispensable assistant at his side. To Maomao’s displeasure, the eunuch immediately captured your attention. You greeted the men politely, offering them a gentle smile. Maomao clenched her teeth so hard it felt like they might crack.
Maomao liked working in the pharmacy. She enjoyed handling medicines and having space for her poison experiments. She liked being useful, even though she rarely said so out loud. To her surprise, she also liked her apprentice. Curious and diligent, you had grown on her more than she cared to admit.
From the very beginning, you showed remarkable determination in your desire to learn her craft. Like her, you wanted to be useful to the imperial court. You wanted to ease Maomao’s workload, something you once admitted to her. You paid close attention to her every word, absorbing knowledge and striving to remember it for future use. Since you arrived at the palace, you had come a long way—transforming from a timid, frightened slave who couldn’t even write into a charming pharmacy assistant whom Maomao could already trust to manage a full day of work on your own. She was proud of you.
But, like any blossoming flower, you started attracting all sorts of insects.
Unfortunately, you weren’t only admired by Maomao. Lately, Jinshi had been visiting the pharmacy suspiciously often. At some point during your brief interactions, the eunuch-pervert (in Maomao’s one and only opinion, of course) had taken a liking to your delightful reactions. You were sweet and kind to him but didn’t swoon over his charm like every other girl (and not only girls) in the palace—excluding Maomao herself, who felt like vomiting every time he turned on his so-called charm.
He kept coming back again and again (though he could’ve easily assigned such trivial matters to any servant!) and flirted with you unbearably long—at least, as much as his status allowed (which, according to dear Maomao, was obscenely too much). Sometimes he grew bold enough to touch your shoulders or your hair (How dare he?), and—worst of all—he made you laugh. A lot.
Maomao snapped out of her thoughts and, deciding for now not to throw a book at the eunuch, smoothly slipped between the two of you, greeting the visitors in a (she tried) friendly manner.
“You’re here again, Lord Jinshi. Could it be that you’ve fallen ill? The sick are supposed to stay in bed and not get up.”
“Oh, not at all, dear Maomao. I’m here merely for a consultation,” Jinshi replied, ignoring the sly remark with his usual refined grace.
“With such burning enthusiasm for consultations, be careful—your manly virtue might awaken again,” Maomao fired back, choosing an especially sharp comment to jab at Jinshi and subtly remind you that he could never be a proper husband, so there was no point in even considering him as one.
“If that is fate’s will, then perhaps I’m destined for another purpose,” Jinshi responded lightly, as always unfazed by her mockery, casting a brief glance in your direction. Maomao’s eye almost twitched.
“But then you’d be dismissed from service. The entire harem would mourn such a loss. You’re of great value to us. If that ever happens, I’m ready to secretly prepare a special decoction just for you,” Maomao said with polite courtesy, omitting the fact that, instead of a decoction, she’d much rather put a hammer to good use. Perhaps to knock something else off the eunuch—like his head.
You watch their bickering closely. Your heart skips a beat with a sudden realization. You bring a hand to your mouth and whisper softly:
“Oh. They’re… madly in love with each other. How did I not see it sooner?”
Gaoshun, standing nearby, became an unwitting witness to your conclusion—and couldn’t believe what he’d just heard. He slowly turned his head, casting a shocked glance at you.
But you noticed nothing, too lost in your own fantasies.
Gaoshun let out a heavy sigh. These young people would drive him insane.
Can I request a scenario with yandere Zoe (she is very fantastic girl), where s/o protects her from Chloe? And after that moment Zoe falls in love with s/o
A little reminder. Please don't read this if you are uncomfortable with the yandere!
(There are more than 200 of you. Wow ❤️)
Pairing: Yandere!Zoe x Reader
tw: Violence, abuse (not for the reader), non-consensual kissing
Chloe's hostility was no secret to anyone in the class. She liked to make fun of someone. Sometimes she openly humiliated people. Do not count how many people akumatized through her fault.
---
You stood among the crowd in the hallway of the school, looking at the next Chloe's tantrum. With the recent arrival of her sister, scandals have become even more. You ignored the squeals, not even trying to listen to the words. Any minor trifle could become the cause of the hysteria. Your eyes went from one scared and cowering blonde to another. Hatred burned in Chloe's eyes. You rolled your eyes. Why can't she just ignore what she doesn't like? Chloe shifted her position and you instinctively lunged forward, grabbing her hand. The crowd fell silent. The girl almost hit her sister in the face. Under dozens of condemning looks, she shuddered, finally shutting up. Her face turned red to the ears and she pulled her hand out of your grip and hurried away.
-Th… thanks. - Zoe says the first time. Her voice was trembling and her eyes were in tears. She was still frightened, but is grateful to you.
-Yep. - You brush aside her thanks, carefully take her by the elbow and lead her towards the restroom - away from prying eyes.
---
-What's your answer? - the girl glanced lazily around the library. When she didn't hear your answer, she turned around. Your soft sleeping face met her.
From that day on, Zoe couldn't take her eyes off you. Her heart fluttered every time you spoke to her. No one had ever stood up for her so bravely. She greedily clung to any chance to spend time with you.
Zoe quietly calls your name to check if you are sound asleep. You don't react. She looks back. There is no one in the library except you. Zoe leans into your face and quickly steals a short kiss. This is the best day of her life.

Grippy socks and a whole lot of rage.
You thundered through the cold hallways, those stupid grips on the bottom of your pale pink socks slapping against the soulless tile as you stormed toward the front desk—navigating the corridors with ease, with practice.
"Missus Geto!"
The nurse’s voice cut through the air, concern etched into every syllable. You barely heard her over the pounding in your ears, over the sound of your ragged breath. The two nurses in sterile white uniforms flanking you moved in closer.
"What the hell is the meaning of this?"
You tried to sound calm. Like you weren’t unhinged. Because you aren’t.
So why the hell are they treating you like you are?
Your fingers dug into the white desk, nails pressing so hard against the surface that it felt like your nails might leave a mark.
Your gaze flickered to the back wall, where pristine frames displayed crisp, professional lettering.
Geto Suguru.
Gojo Satoru.
The two main doctors.
One of them your ex-husband.
The other, someone you once considered a friend.
Let’s backtrack, shall we?
Suguru had always been gentle. Not in the way that people could be when they tried to be, not in the way that was practiced. No, he was gentle in the way that flowers turned toward the sun, effortlessly, instinctively.
His hands always ran warm, fingertips tracing absentminded circles against your skin whenever he held you. He kissed you like it was second nature like the act itself was woven into his being. Slow, lingering, like he had all the time in the world to savor you.
"You always rush," he would murmur against your lips, hands cupping your face, thumbs stroking the apples of your cheeks. "Take a breath, angel."
And you would.
Because in his arms, the world didn’t just slow—it stilled. It curled around the two of you, safe, untouched, like a sanctuary built for no one else. He memorized you with the precision of a surgeon and the devotion of a poet, every habit, every breath, every fleeting hesitation. Your friends envied it. Your parents bragged about it.
"A doctor in the family!" they’d say, pride swelling in their voices.
Suguru would only chuckle, his arm draped securely around your waist, grounding you, anchoring you. Then, in the quiet of an evening, when the world faded away, he’d murmur little truths about you, the ones only he had noticed.
"She chews her lip when she’s thinking too hard," he’d tease, pressing a slow, lingering kiss to the corner of your mouth. "She likes her tea sweet, but not too sweet. And she counts her steps when she’s anxious—"
"Suguru!" you’d huff, pushing at his chest, but the warmth in your cheeks betrayed you.
And he’d only smile, soft and knowing, brushing a strand of hair from your face. "What? I like knowing you."
He was perfect. Too perfect.
Every fight ended the same way—him, impossibly composed, those stormy violet eyes locked onto you with patience that never cracked.
"Angel, sit with me."
"Suguru, I don’t—"
"Please."
And you would.
Because he had a way of making the world go silent, of smothering your fire with the weight of his gentleness. He never yelled, never lashed out, never met your frustration with his own. Instead, he’d gather you in his arms, press his lips to your temple, and whisper—
"Tell me what’s wrong."
You hated that. Hated the way he never let the fight breathe, never let it burn. Hated that he never raised his voice, never let you see the cracks, never showed you anything but unwavering, unshakable devotion.
You wanted him to break. Just once.
Instead, he ran his fingers through your hair, pressed featherlight kisses against your hairline, held you until your breathing slowed, until your words lost their edges and softened into something he could soothe, something he could fix.
"See?" he’d murmur. "We can figure this out. Together."
And maybe that was love.
Or maybe it was something else entirely.
Maybe it was why, one morning before your shift at the ER, you left the divorce papers on his desk, your hands trembling as you placed the pen beside them.
Maybe it was why, as you stepped over the threshold of the home you built together, your heart felt like it was tearing itself apart.
Because love shouldn’t feel like suffocation.
Even if the arms around you were warm. Even if the kisses were soft.
Even if walking away made you wonder if, maybe—just maybe—you had just made the biggest mistake of your life.
“You don’t find a man like that in every lifetime, Y/N.”
Your mother’s voice crackled through the phone, sharp and impatient, as you yanked your scrubs over your head, the fabric stiff from too many late-night washes.
“Seriously, how many overnight shifts have you been working? You married a doctor! You should settle down, have some babies—not stay up all night playing nurse.”
You clenched your jaw.
Yes. You - a nurse married a doctor.
And somehow, everyone always forgot that nurses saved lives, too.
You huffed, shoving your hands into your pockets, double-checking for the essentials, pen light, trauma shears, and your stash of caffeine for the night.
"I’m not playing nurse, Mother," you muttered, stuffing your phone between your shoulder and ear.
"Then what is it, sweetheart?" she pried, and you could already hear the sigh she was holding back.
Something just feels… wrong.
But you didn’t say that.
Because it didn’t matter.
And just like you expected, she brushed your worries aside, swept them under the rug the way mothers always did. A moment later, your phone pinged, and there it was—her latest unsolicited solution, wrapped in a clickbait headline.
"How to Save Your Marriage!" straight from some old Cosmopolitan article.
You rolled your eyes.
At least it wasn’t like the one she sent last week.
"How to Spice Up the Bedroom."
Where she—repeatedly—asked if your sex life was still healthy.
You stopped replying after that.
Not because your sex life was bad.
It wasn’t.
Suguru was… well.
He was a man built for worship—his, yours, it didn’t matter.
Everything about him had been crafted to please, down to the way he touched you—deliberate, devout, like it was a privilege, like he had all the time in the world to learn what made you tremble, what made you fall apart beneath him.
He made you feel cherished.
Until you started pulling away.
At first, it was small. His arms encircled your waist as you washed dishes, his lips brushing the shell of your ear, the warm inhale before his teeth grazed your skin-
And then the series of kisses, slow and soft, trailing down the column of your neck, down, down, down—
Until you were stepping away.
Another meek smile.
Another I’m just tired.
Because you were.
Three back-to-back night shifts in the ER, too many patients flatlining on the table, your body running on caffeine fumes and pure adrenaline.
And Suguru?
He never got angry. Never snapped, never accused, never let frustration seep into his voice.
"Don’t worry, angel," he’d murmur instead, pressing a final kiss to your temple. "That’s okay."
So patient. So perfectly understanding.
And yet, it wasn’t like you stopped thinking about him.
You didn’t need porn, never did. Not when you had him burned into your mind.
Those pretty violet eyes, the way they darkened when he was between your thighs. The slow, reverent way he kissed up your inner thighs before spreading you open with those thick fingers, working you apart with precise precision.
Every orgasm coaxed from your body with intent, with devotion—like he had some kind of personal investment in unraveling you.
And now, alone in bed, aching, needing, your fingers weren’t enough.
They weren’t his.
They weren’t thick enough, long enough, couldn’t reach that soft, plushy spot deep inside, couldn’t curl just right.
And yet, even back then, you never went to him for it.
Never let yourself ask for what you needed.
And maybe that was the problem.
Maybe it wasn’t about sex at all.
But still—
You refused to tell your mother about the lack of intimacy.
That night, you ended up at Satoru’s place.
Because of course you did.
Satoru had always been a close friend—yours and Suguru’s. And it had never been weird.
Not really.
With Satoru, it was always the little things. The things that didn’t carry weight. The casual venting about insufferable patients, the late-night hospital gossip, the stolen moments of laughter between shifts when you needed them most. He was the kind of person who could pull you out of your own head without even trying, the kind who would let you curl up on his couch without asking questions, shove a glass of expensive sake into your hands when your fingers wouldn’t stop shaking.
He always listened.
He always let you in.
Always took care of you in that easy way only he could.
And it was never weird.
Well—
Except for that one time.
Too many margaritas.
Too much sun.
The three of you sprawled across warm sand in Mexico, waves licking the shore, salt clinging to your skin. Satoru, grinning around the rim of his cocktail, his cheeks tinged pink from the alcohol. "Dare you to kiss me," he’d said, nudging Suguru’s knee with his own, teasing.
And, to your utter shock.
Suguru did.
Suguru’s fingers twisted into Satoru’s shirt, yanking him closer. Satoru melted into it, like he had been waiting. Like they had done this before.
And not just a peck. It was firm. Rough.
Your stomach flipped.
Suguru had never kissed you like that.
Never held you like that.
And maybe it was the tequila, maybe it was the heat, maybe it was the way Satoru’s smug little smirk lingered a little too long after they finally pulled away, but you couldn’t stop thinking about it.
Couldn’t stop wanting it.
Later that night, back in your hotel room, the thoughts had gnawed at you, restless, relentless. You had stepped into the shower beside Suguru, letting the warm water cascade over both of you, watching the way his hands moved over your skin, slow, methodical, worshipful.
"Why don’t you ever kiss me like that?"
Suguru had blinked, his fingers pausing against your ribs. "Like what?"
"Rough." You had half-teased, half-tested.
Suguru’s hands resumed their path, gliding over your hips with the same gentle touch he always had.
"I can’t be like that with you," he murmured, pressing a featherlight kiss to your cheek, then another, then another. "I can’t hurt the love of my life."
Your cheeks burned under the steam, but still -
"What if I want you to?"
A slow inhale, his lips barely grazing your jawline.
"I have patients who need that," he whispered, that same soft patience laced into his voice. His fingertips traced slow, intricate designs into your skin, like he was carving the words into you.
"Those needs are built by people who haven’t been loved properly like you have," he continued, his lips barely touching your temple. "I would rather you remain pure and loved."
Pure.
Loved.
And that was the end of it.
Suguru never brought it up again.
And if you did, he would smooth it over, remind you of his devotion. That he loved you. That he was afraid of going too far. That he couldn’t be rough with you, not in the way he had been with Satoru, not in the way that made your breath hitch and your stomach twist with something you couldn’t name.
Because you were his angel.
His soft thing.
His exception.
And so, when Satoru had opened the door for you, when he pulled you inside with that easy grin, when he draped a blanket over your lap and shoved takeout into your hands.
It was almost enough to forget.
"It’s what Suguru would want," he had said with a wink.
No questions. No judgment.
The couch—his couch, the one he never actually used—was yours for the night.
The hospital had a reputation for running its doctors into the ground anyway. Neither of you were strangers to sleepless nights.
"But—"
"Stay as long as you’d like," Satoru hummed as he unwrapped his container, the scent of soy sauce and fried rice filling the space.
He dragged the word out, his smirk sharpening. "I am gonna have to tell Suguru you’re here. You do know that, right?"
Your shoulders tensed, but you only sighed, sinking deeper into the chair.
"I figured."
Satoru grinned. "We could invite -"
"Nope."
You cut him off before he could even finish, shoving a spoonful of rice into your mouth, eyes locked pointedly on the little red takeout box in your hands, letting the oil seep into the edges of the conversation.
Satoru pouted dramatically, flopping into the chair across from you.
And this—this was what you liked about him.
The moment you told him no, he backed off.
Maybe it was because he was terrible with emotions. Maybe it was because he turned everything into a joke.
But he never pushed.
Until he didn’t.
Satoru was a good friend. Someone who always had your back.
It happened later that night.
The bathroom was dim, the overhead light buzzing softly, casting a sterile glow over the sink. The quiet felt too heavy, pressing in around you, making your own breath sound too loud. Your fingers fumbled with the cap of a prescription bottle, muscles sluggish, exhaustion weighing on you like a physical thing. Just Tylenol. Nothing dangerous. Just something to dull the relentless pounding behind your eyes, to take the edge off, to help you sleep - not forever, just enough.
"Stupid child-proof caps," you muttered, twisting, shaking, trying to pry it open. Your grip slipped, frustration bubbling up as you tried again, more forceful this time.
Then the door swung open.
At the worst possible moment.
The cap finally popped free, and before you could stop it, small, white pills spilled into your palm just as Satoru stepped inside.
For a moment, neither of you moved. The air in the room shifted, thickening with suffocatuon. His usual lazy smirk was nowhere to be seen, replaced by something eerily still. His gaze dropped - to the bottle in your grip, to the pills in your hand, to the exhaustion carved into the planes of your face. You watched the realization flicker across his features, slow, deliberate, something you couldn’t quite place.
Then, before you could react, before you could explain, his hand was already in his pocket.
Your stomach dropped.
"Satoru - " Your voice cracked, uneven, clawing its way out of your throat. "No. No, this isn’t - this isn’t what it looks like."
You stepped forward, reaching for his wrist, but he stepped back. Just out of reach. Watching. Assessing. Already deciding.
"Yeah, it’s Gojo Satoru," he said smoothly, effortlessly - like he was ordering fucking takeout. "I need an emergency psych evaluation."
The words hit you like a physical blow, knocking the breath from your lungs.
Your fingers trembled, cold washing over you as you took another step toward him. "Satoru - stop! Listen to me!"
But that was the problem.
"I didn’t realize it was this bad," he sighed, almost soft, his lips curling into a pitying smile.
He was listening. Too closely. Watching the way your shoulders stiffened, the way your breath hitched, the way your hands curled into fists like you were trying to hold yourself together. You had seen that look before, in the ER, when he assessed patients when he made decisions for them. Decisions they never got to take back.
The walls felt like they were closing in. The room tilted.
Then came the hands on your arms—firm, practiced, final. Voices murmuring in the background. You tried to fight, but the moment was already slipping away.
You were escorted out of his apartment.
Stuffed into the back of a black-tinted vehicle. Flagged by two men in sterile white coats.
Driven past empty streets and dimly lit signs, past any chance of turning back.
Led through cold, sterile hallways, past locked doors and hushed voices.
Which led you here.
Standing at the front desk of a place you didn’t belong.
Wearing stupid pink grippy socks.
Your hands shook at your sides, your pulse hammering in your ears, a deep, aching numbness settling into your bones. You hadn’t expected Satoru to betray you. Hadn’t expected him to smile so softly as he handed you over, hadn’t expected the way his hand lingered on your back, firm, reassuring, as if he thought he was helping.
Surrounded by people who didn’t believe you.
And you sure as hell hadn’t expected to be locked away in the so-called presidential suite of the mental hospital - reserved for the rich and famous.
Or, in your case, the pitifully well-connected.
The walls were a soft pastel pink, littered with bunny and flower decals, the kind that practically screamed, "Everything is sunshine and rainbows!"
Except it wasn’t.
It didn’t help that fresh flowers sat on your nightstand, always roses. Suguru’s favorite gesture. Romantic, thoughtful. Except he’d gone the extra step—meticulously removing every thorn. So you couldn’t even shove them down Satoru’s throat if you wanted to for dragging you to this place.
Instead, you were stuck with a locked door. No bathroom. A sad excuse for a sippy cup of water. And a plush, inviting bed you were now restrained to after your roster status conveniently changed from stable to unstable.
You nearly jumped at the sound of the door unlocking.
In walked him.
Suguru. Your beloved ex-husband.
He stepped inside with that same effortless grace, his lab coat crisp, sleeves pushed just slightly to his elbows, revealing the same steady hands that once traced every inch of your skin. The scent of clean linen and something faintly musky—his scent—lingered as he moved. His dark hair was neatly tied back, a few stray strands framing his face in a way that made your stomach lurch.
"Miss Geto," he greeted, voice smooth—velvety, like he was speaking to a lover rather than a patient.
Something inside you cracked.
"Don't," you snapped, harsher than intended like the word had torn its way through your throat baring your teeth. "Let me go."
Then, without hesitation, he pulled up a chair and settled across from you, as if this was just another late-night conversation over tea at the kitchen table. The same easy grace, the same quiet patience. Clipboard in hand, pen scratching against the paper in slow, measured strokes, like he was making note of the way your chest rose and fell just a little too fast, the way your fingers twitched against the thin hospital blanket.
Like he still knew you better than anyone.
"You’re my patient," he mused, his voice dangerously calm. "Who attempted suicide."
"I did nothing of the sort," you spat, the words flowing out too fast, too sharp.
Suguru barely lifted his gaze, still focused on his notes. Reading out loud what you had told the nursing staff when you were admitted.
"The bottle spilled. An innocent mistake anyone can make. Even a professional like yourself."
That finally got him to look up. He smiled.
Suguru’s smile was infuriatingly soft like he was humoring a particularly stubborn child. He set the clipboard down, fingers interlacing as he leaned forward slightly, as if trying to make you feel heard, as if he actually believed this was some kind of productive conversation.
"An innocent mistake," he repeated, tilting his head. "Is that what you’d like to call it?"
You clenched your jaw. "It’s the truth."
Suguru exhaled through his nose, shaking his head slightly, a slow, measured disappointment. "Y/N, you know I can’t just take your word for it."
"Why not?" you snapped, your voice sharp, desperate, cracking at the edges despite your best efforts. "I am telling you what happened."
His gaze softened - not in pity, not in understanding, but in something far worse.
"Because I know you," he said simply, like that was supposed to mean something, like that was supposed to be enough. "I know how you get when something is wrong. And I know you wouldn’t be here if there wasn’t something wrong."
Your nails dug into the soft fabric of the restraints wrapped around your wrists.
"Something is wrong," you hissed, venom laced in every syllable. "My so-called best friend had me committed based on a bullshit assumption, and my ex-husband—who should be the last person with a say in my well-being—is now sitting here acting like he gets to play God with my life."
Suguru didn’t flinch.
Didn’t waver.
If anything, his patience deepened.
"Satoru was worried about you," he murmured, his voice smooth, steady, controlled. "We both are. How do you think I felt hearing that my wife attempted suicide?"
You barked out a laugh - sharp, bitter, ugly.
"Worried?" The word burned as it left your throat. "No. Satoru was being his usual overdramatic self, and you -"
Your breath hitched. The words sat on your tongue, heavy, rancid, tasting worse than bile.
"You’re just enjoying this, aren’t you?"
Suguru blinked. His expression didn’t shift, didn’t flicker.
Unreadable.
Untouchable.
Your pulse pounded in your ears, drowning out the sterile hum of the hospital.
"You get to keep me here." The rage trembled beneath your skin, a wildfire barely contained. "Control me. Make me talk to you. Because you hated that I left."
"Hated that I didn’t need you."
And then, you gestured - jerked against the restraints just enough for them to bite into your skin, to make a point, creating angry markings against your skin.
"And now, look! Here I am. All wrapped up and delivered straight to you."
A long silence stretched between you.
The weight of his gaze settled over you, suffocating, crushing.
Then—
Suguru reached for his clipboard, flipping through a few pages, slow, cautious.
"You think I want to control you?" he mused, barely glancing up, attempting to avoid your gaze. "Think I wasn’t worried when I got the call?"
There was something almost amused in the way he said it.
You bared your teeth, chest rising and falling too fast, anger crackling under your skin like a live fire.
"Don’t you?"
Suguru sighed, rubbing at his temple, slow and methodical, before finally looking at you.
You stared at him, waiting.
Waiting for the punchline.
Waiting for him to drop the act—for his mask of careful patience to crack and show something real, something human.
You inhaled sharply, exhaled in small, uneven breaths, the air in the room too thick, too sterile.
Suguru just watched you.
He let a few beats pass, like he was waiting for you to finish, like he was giving you time—as if this was just another tantrum that needed to run its course.
And then—
He smiled.
"I need a urine sample," he murmured, voice smooth, as if the past few minutes hadn’t happened, as if your rage, your desperation, was nothing more than an inconvenience.
You scoffed, shifting against the restraints. "Fine. Take me to the bathroom." You turned your head away, expecting the click of the buckles being undone any second now.
It never came.
"That’s not how things work here, angel," Suguru mused, his voice a slow, deliberate test—poking, prodding, waiting for your reaction.
Your hands curled into fists. "Angel." That pet name he used to say with love. That pet name that now sounded like a leash tightening around your throat.
You inhaled sharply, forcing yourself to stay calm. "Suguru," you started, voice level, "hospital protocol states that urine samples are to be taken in the restroom. In private. At most, a guard may be present. You know this."
Suguru simply shook his head, looking almost gladden at your attempt to argue. "This isn’t your ER," he reminded you smoothly, tilting his head. "This is my hospital. And here, we take precautions. We have to ensure you don’t harm yourself… or tamper with the sample."
Your breath hitched, another furrow of the brows. "Tamper -"
"Don’t worry," Suguru cut you off, still unbearably calm, like this was just another mundane part of his day. "I’ll be completely professional."
You stared at him, anger burning so hot in your chest it felt suffocating.
Dick.
"You’re enjoying this, aren’t you?" you hissed.
Suguru didn’t react. Just leaned back in his chair, the cup still held between his fingers, watching you with that same unreadable patience.
"Come on, angel," he murmured, almost teasing now. "We can do this the easy way or the hard way."
You hated him.
Not in the way you hated Satoru for his dramatics, or your mother for her unsolicited marriage advice.
No.
You hated Suguru in the kind of way that made your skin itch, that made your blood run cold with fury. The kind of hatred reserved for someone who knew you inside and out—who knew exactly what would break you, and took his sweet time doing it.
“I want Shoko present then,” you huffed, chin tilted up, clinging onto whatever scraps of control you had left. “A different doctor.”
Suguru barely reacted. Just tilted his head, twirling the specimen container lazily between his fingers. "She just finished her shift. She cannot legally return for 72 hours."
Bullshit.
"Mei Mei," you shot back immediately.
"Busy handling more special cases," Suguru countered smoothly, not missing a beat. "More aggressive ones."
Of course. Of course.
You knew exactly what he was doing. Boxing you in, narrowing your choices, giving you just enough illusion of control to make you feel like you weren’t completely powerless.
And then, he dropped the final option. The only option.
"If you want a different doctor," he sighed, so patronizing, so patient, "then you may request Satoru."
Your lips parted, rage curling on your tongue, ready to tell him exactly where to shove that offer—
But then something cold and spiteful took over.
"Fine," you bit out, keeping your glare locked onto his. "Call him."
You weren’t expecting much - maybe a slight twitch of his jaw, a roll of his eyes, anything that would prove you’d gotten to him, even just a little.
But no.
Suguru only smiled. Soft. Unbothered. Always one step ahead.
"Alright, angel," he murmured, standing with a slow, practiced ease. "I’ll go grab him. Whatever makes you feel more comfortable."
Like he was indulging you.
Like he was being the bigger person.
Like he was waiting for you to realize how ridiculous you were being and apologize.
You squeezed the specimen cup so tightly in your hands you thought it might crack. Your nails dug into the plastic, jaw clenched so hard your teeth ached. Satoru just stood there, completely at ease, watching you like he had all the time in the world.
His grin was unbearable. The casual way he leaned against the door, arms crossed, like this was fun for him. Like he wasn’t standing in front of someone who was actively fighting off the urge to snap.
"Need me to hold the cup?" he teased, tilting his head, voice all sugar and mockery.
You blinked at him, your mind blank for a moment—so full of rage that it looped back into emptiness. A white-hot static filled your ears. Your hands itched, ached to throw the cup at his face, to shatter the glass of the observation mirror behind him, to break something—anything—
But you just swallowed, holding your ground.
"You’re not going to turn around?" you asked, voice deceptively calm, but you could hear the crack in it.
Satoru shook his head, all easy amusement, that soft white hair swaying with the motion. "What if you’re using someone else’s—"
The pressure in your chest reached a peak, and before you could stop yourself, you snapped.
"How the hell would I get someone else’s urine, Satoru?"
It came out sharper than you intended, more raw, more exhausted. You saw the moment he caught onto it - saw the way his smirk deepened, how his fingers twitched at the thrill of getting under your skin.
You hated that.
You hated him.
You gripped the cup harder. Your heartbeat pounded in your ears, arms shook with the effort of keeping yourself together. The room was too small. The air was too thick. Everything felt wrong.
"So snappy," he murmured, like he was pleased. Like this was all some game or prank that you were just waiting for the camera crew to come in and tell you "get pranked!"
Except it wasn't. You were still hovering over a drain embedded in the pale blue floor trying to pee.
Throw it at him. The thought came unbidden, cold and quiet. Just throw it. Wipe that smirk off his face. Give him something real to laugh about.
Your fingers twitched.
No.
No, because that’s exactly what he wanted. That’s exactly what Suguru wanted. To watch you spiral. To document it. To mark it down in that damn file.
Satoru pushed off the wall, stretching, rolling his neck. "Relax, princess," he said, ever the smug bastard. "Just following protocol. Who knows? Maybe you planned this."
Your vision blurred at the edges.
You wanted to scream.
Maybe you planned this. Slow and mocking rang through your ears.
You wanted to hit him.
You wanted to rip your way out of this room, out of this fucking hospital, out of your own skin -
But you didn’t.
You stood there, chest rising and falling too fast, your hands gripping the specimen cup like it was the only thing keeping you tethered to yourself. To your sanity.
Because if you gave in—if you screamed, if you threw something, if you lost control—
So instead, you swallowed the fire in your throat, stuffed the rage down where it burned deep in your gut, and forced your lips into a sickly sweet smile.
Then they’d win.
"Then I guess you’ll just have to watch me pee," you whispered, voice deceptively soft.
You wanted to see his smirk falter, just for a second.
It didn’t.
Satoru crouched down to your level, resting his chin on his hand like this was the most interesting thing in the world. His bright blue eyes shimmered with amusement, waiting, watching.
"You know…" he started, tone light, teasing as if he weren’t watching you at your most humiliated. "I was really worried about you."
You refused to look at him, your grip on the cup tightening, your focus locked on the pristine blue of his scrubs.
"Yeah?" you muttered, voice flat.
"Mhmm." His hum vibrated with something smug. "The nurses - " he dragged the word out playfully like he was gossiping at brunch, " - think you planned this. That you missed Suguru so much, you just had to get yourself locked up in his hospital…"
Your hands trembled slightly, the sheer rage threatening to make the cup slip.
Satoru noticed. Of course he did.
Then you noticed it.
The tent in his pants.
Your stomach twisted, nausea curling in your throat, but before you could process it, his gloved fingers brushed your cheek, guiding your face toward him. His blue eyes dazzled- a trap disguised as something beautiful.
"Don’t worry," he went on, casual, sweet, like you were just two friends catching up over coffee. "It’ll only be a couple more days until you get to leave. Maybe…" he trailed off for dramatic effect, grinning as if he was pitching you something fun, "we can go home all together."
"But I know better," he murmured, his breath tickling your skin. "You’re a good girl, aren’t you?"
What the hell was he playing at? And before you could stop him, before your brain could even process it—
His lips pressed against your forehead. Soft. Chaste.
Mocking.
The cup slipped from your hands.
It hit the tile with a sharp clatter, the urine spilling onto the floor, and swirling down the small drain.
Satoru stayed close, close enough to feel his smile against your skin.
Then he pulled back, taking in the mess with a soft whistle.
"Oops," he cooed, lips twitching in amusement. "Butterfingers."
You stared at him, nails digging into your palm, pressing hard enough that you should have drawn blood—would have, if Suguru hadn’t meticulously trimmed and filed them down.
To the point where they couldn’t even leave a mark. Couldn’t harm anyone. Something about it being protocol.
Satoru’s grin widened, his teeth practically sparkling. Bright blue eyes brightening. "Guess we’ll have to try again! The second time’s the charm, right?"
The sound of the slap cracked through the sterile air like a gunshot.
Your palm stung, the heat of the impact lingering on your skin, but it was nothing compared to the way Satoru’s head had barely turned with the force of it.
That grin.
It didn’t falter.
Didn’t waver.
His face remained tilted to the side for just a second, the red mark of your palm blooming on his cheek. But when he slowly turned back to you - his lips stretched into something wicked.
You could’ve sworn the red on his face wasn’t just from your slap.
But a blush.
"Ohhh," Satoru exhaled, his grin widening. His tongue swiped over the inside of his cheek like he was tasting the sting. "Now that’s the fire I missed. Though you didn’t wash your hands, princess."
Your stomach dropped.
The heat in his eyes wasn’t just amusement.
He liked that.
"That felt good, didn’t it?" he mused, tilting his head, gaze never leaving yours. "You wanna do it again?"
Your whole body locked up, muscles coiled so tightly they ached. The rational part of you screamed don’t react—don’t give him what he wants. But the rest of you—the part that was sick with rage, humiliation, helplessness—wanted to slap him again. Wanted to make him hurt.
Satoru saw it. Felt it.
And he loved it.
He leaned in ever so slightly, voice dropping lower, playful yet taunting. "Come on, sugar. Let it out."
You curled your fingers into fists, so close to giving in—
And then the door clicked open.
Suguru stepped in, clipboard in hand, dark eyes flicking between the two of you, taking in the charged atmosphere with a knowing hum.
Satoru, still grinning, straightened up, stuffing his hands into his pockets. "Well," he drawled, stretching lazily, "unfortunately, we still need that sample."
Suguru raised an eyebrow. "Trouble?"
"Nah." Satoru waved a hand dismissively, glancing down at you once more, his smirk never once faltering. "We were just bonding."
"I see," Suguru murmured, not even looking at you as he jotted something down on the clipboard. His eyes flicked to the urine spill on the floor, and then back to Satoru, as if this was nothing more than a mild inconvenience. "I’ll call someone to clean up your mess, angel. We can just wait until you have to go again, won’t we? Need you hydrated for your blood test anyway."
You weren’t sure what you were feeling.
Fury?
Dread?
Humiliation?
Some horrible concoction of all three, swirling in your chest, making it impossible to breathe.
Satoru let out a soft, amused hum beside you, still rubbing at his cheek as if savoring the sting.
Suguru’s pen paused. "Did she slap you, Satoru?"
The words were deceptively gentle. His gaze drifted to his best friend’s pale skin, now tinged pink, his expression unreadable.
Satoru, ever the little shit, grinned. "She sure did!" He shot you a wink. "She’s still got that fight in her, huh?"
Suguru exhaled slowly, tapping the clipboard with the end of his pen before leveling you with the most patronizing look you had ever seen. There was no cruelty in his expression, no outright malice. As if he had already decided what you were before, you even opened your mouth.
"Suppose we have to add aggression to your chart, then…"
Your stomach twisted again, you were about to speak out, defend yourself -
"Have to keep you away from the other patients and nurses," he continued, his voice calm, like he was making a note about the weather instead of your freedom. His pen moved smoothly over the page, unbothered, effortless. "Don’t want any more staff getting hurt."
Your pulse pounded against your ribs, the sharp pressure of your heartbeat making your vision blur for a moment. "I am not aggressive." The words came out too fast, too desperate, as if sheer force could make them true in his mind.
Suguru didn’t even glance up from his notes. "Of course not, angel." His voice carried the same devoted softness it always had, the same infuriating patience.
The sound of his pen moving against the clipboard might as well have been the click of a lock.
They were rewriting you right in front of your eyes, shaping you into something else—someone else. Piece by piece, erasing what didn’t fit, twisting reality into something they could control.
A violent patient.
An unstable patient.
A liability.
Your hands trembled against your lap, fingers curling into fists so tightly that your nails pressed into your skin. You could feel the warmth of Suguru’s gaze on you, watching, waiting. You wanted to fight back, to rip the clipboard from his hands, to make him listen. But you already knew how that would end. Another note in the file. Another checkmark on their list. Another reason for them to keep you here.
Days passed, though they bled together, time warping under the weight of routine. You spent most of it trapped in the common room, though there was nothing common about it. There were no other patients. No quiet conversations or hushed laughter in the corners. No sounds of therapy sessions or shuffling feet down the halls. Just you. Just him.
Satoru sat across from you, long legs stretched out beneath the too-small plastic table, posture relaxed as if this was just another lazy afternoon. His hand moved methodically over a coloring page, crayons scattered across the table in a mess of childish hues.
"Don’t you have other patients?" you asked, your voice tight, the question slipping out before you could stop it. Your fingers curled around a yellow crayon, grip stiff, too firm.
Satoru didn’t look up. Instead, he kept humming to himself, dragging slow strokes of purple wax over the page, his movements too steady, too deliberate. "I'm going to color my flowers purple." He flipped the page toward you with a smug little grin. "What color are you going to do yours?"
Satoru noticed. His grin grew, slow and satisfied, as if your irritation was more entertaining than the coloring itself. "Need me to help you out there, princess?" he teased, leaning forward slightly. "See, you have to—"
Your paper sat untouched. Blank. Couldn’t bring yourself to play along.
"Satoru."
The crayon in your hand snapped before you even realized you were gripping it too hard. A jagged, broken edge crumbled onto the table, wax flecks scattering across the surface.
The hum of casual amusement in the room vanished.
Satoru stilled. His lips parted slightly, and for the first time, his sharp, blue eyes locked onto you with something heavier than teasing amusement.
Satoru chuckled. It was quiet at first, low, controlled, but then it spilled out in full, bright and infuriating, his lips stretching into something too wide, too pleased.
"I asked you a question," you said, your voice shaking - not from fear, but from the sheer, unbearable restraint it took not to hurl the broken crayon at his smug, unbothered face.
"You really don’t like playing house with me, huh?" he mused, tapping the broken crayon piece with his finger as if it fascinated him. "Come on, princess, lighten up. You’re making it seem like you don’t enjoy my company. We used to be so close before all of this."
Your jaw tightened, frustration grinding in your chest. This was a game to him. A performance. You were the only one who hadn’t seen the script.
"Answer the damn question."
Satoru tilted his head as if weighing his answer, as if he was letting you believe you had any say in how this conversation would go. Then, with a lazy stretch, he sighed, tone dramatically put-upon, like he was humoring you.
"Not really," he admitted. "No one else here really needs me the way you do."
The words crawled under your skin like something sick and wrong, twisting deep in your gut before you could shove them away.
"The way you do."
Like you were needy.
Like you wanted this.
Like this was all for you.
The slow, creeping horror curled through your veins, tightening around your ribs, but you forced it down, pushed past it. You gritted your teeth, fingers digging into your palms. "I don’t need you."
Satoru’s smirk widened, stretching just a little too far, as if he could see the fraying edges of your composure and was thrilled by it. You were going to snap. You wanted to slap him again, wanted to claw at his stupid, smug, self-satisfied face, wanted to do something—anything—to wipe that look off of him.
But you didn’t.
Instead, you forced yourself to move slowly, deliberately, picking up the ridiculous sippy cup they had given you, the plastic cool and smooth against your trembling fingers. You took a sip, the artificial sweetness coating your tongue, the taste almost childish in its simplicity. The act of swallowing felt too thick, like your throat didn’t quite want to obey. Just as carefully, you set the cup back down on the tiny plastic table, making sure not to let it shake in your grip.
You had to be calm.
You weren’t insane.
You weren’t crazy.
You weren’t violent.
But the air was too thick, the walls pressing in, the stupid, unfinished coloring page in front of you mocking in its blankness. The pressure inside your chest swelled, wrapping around your ribs like a tightening coil. Your vision blurred at the edges, hot and unwelcome, and you clenched your fists in your lap, willing it away, forcing it down.
Satoru noticed. Of course, he noticed.
"Aww, princess," he murmured, his voice honey-sweet, mocking in its gentleness, and before you could react, before you could pull away, he was pulling you in. Strong arms wrapped around you, warm, suffocating. The scent of him—clean linen, faint cologne, something unmistakably Satoru—invaded your senses, pressing in on all sides.
"Hey, it’s okay to cry," he cooed, his lips ghosting over your forehead before pressing a kiss there, his voice a soothing lull—deceptively soft. "This is a safe space."
Safe.
Safe.
Safe.
The word reverberated in your skull, clashing violently with the truth. This wasn’t safe. This was a cage. A well-kept, carefully controlled cage, but a cage nonetheless. And yet—your body betrayed you.
Because wasn’t this what you were supposed to do? Accept comfort? Let yourself be held? Be good?
"See?" he murmured, fingers stroking through your hair with slow, measured precision. "That’s my good girl."
You nodded weakly against his chest, your body folding into his hold, and the tears finally spilled over - silent, hot, humiliating. His arms tightened around you in response, as if he had been waiting for this, as if he had known you would break.
It was just a matter of when.
The words sent a violent shudder through you, something deep and instinctive recoiling at the way he said it. Like you belonged to him.
Satoru pulled back slightly, just enough to brush a stray tear from your cheek with his thumb, still smiling, still so unshaken, so pleased.
"I’ll bring you some better clothes," he promised, as if he was doing you a favor, like he was some benevolent god. "Something warm, something comfortable."
You swallowed down the thick lump in your throat, nodding again. Maybe—maybe if you played along, maybe if you did what they wanted, they would let you go.
"I don’t think coloring is your strong suit," Satoru mused, his tone light, teasing, trying to smother the moment before had never happened. "We can make paper stars instead! I’ll keep them in my office. Maybe we can make some for Suguru too! Oh, he’d love that! Still has your wedding photo hung up."
Words that landed like a slap, sharp and visceral. Your wedding photo. Still up. Still there. Like nothing had changed. As if those papers you left had no meaning.
The weight of it all bore down on you, and you almost didn’t notice the way Satoru’s hand moved lower.
A slow, trailing touch.
Fingers ghosting beneath the hem of your hospital gown.
Warm against your bare skin.
Your body froze. Every muscle locked up in an instant, but your mind felt numb, sluggish, as if refusing to acknowledge what was happening.
"I just want to make sure you’re okay, princess," Satoru whispered, his lips brushing the shell of your ear, his breath warm against your skin. "Can you show me that you’re okay?"
His fingers pressed just a little firmer, a test, waiting for you to comply. A slight spread of your thighs as his fingers continued their quest.
You weren’t sure what scared you more. The way your body stopped resisting or the way this felt inevitable.
Was it fear?
Resignation?
Were you just enduring, waiting for the moment this would finally be over, so you could go home?
The door clicked open.
Suguru, thankfully, walked in, his dark eyes sweeping over the scene like he already knew what had transpired.
Satoru removed his hand, but the touch lingered, seared into your skin like a brand.
"Ready?" Suguru smiled, that soft, practiced kind, like this was just another routine check-in, like he wasn’t about to upend your entire world again. Wasn't going to drug you back into compliance, wasn't going to hush and calm you when he drew blood for testing.
"You’ve been doing so well the past couple of days—taking your meds, following the schedule—that after this one little test, the head of operations agreed we can move to home treatment…"
He let the words settle, let them sink in before delivering the final blow—
"Since it’s already convenient that we live together."
Your fingers clenched against the table, a cold weight dropping in your stomach.
"We’re divorced," you said slowly, carefully, as if daring him to acknowledge it.
Suguru’s warm, easy smile didn’t falter.
"Mmm, not what your file says," he hummed, stepping closer, his gaze flicking to Satoru’s drawing.
"You didn’t make me one, angel?" His voice was light, almost teasing, but the undercurrent of expectation was there.
"I would’ve hung it up."
Something snapped inside you.
You weren’t sure what.
But you had never wanted to flip a stupid kiddy table more in your entire life.
"Where the hell is Shoko?" The words tore from your throat, sharp and raw. "I want her as my doctor - that is my right."
Suguru blinked at you, his expression shifting—just slightly. Not quite hurt. Not quite anything.
Almost like he had expected this.
"Or the nurses?" you continued, voice rising, trembling with fury. "I want Nanami to be my watch instead of this blue-eyed freak."
You saw it.
The way Satoru flinched. The brief flicker of hurt that crossed his face - so quick, so momentary, but you caught it.
And your heart twisted and cracked.
Because you knew.
You’d always known what that word meant to him.
But you couldn’t stop.
Couldn’t let yourself care.
Because they weren’t listening.
Suguru turned to Satoru, his voice dipping into something colder.
"I think we need to up the dosage."
Then, back to you - his expression unreadable, his tone soft, patronizing.
"I didn’t know you had so much anger in you, angel."
He reached for your face, fingers moving to cup your cheek—
And you smacked his hand away.
The sharp sound echoed in the small room.
Suguru stilled.
He could file down your nails.
He could restrain your hands.
He could drug you into compliance.
For a moment, Suguru was still.
But he could not—would not—control your fire.
Processing.
His expression remained unreadable, but something flickered beneath the surface—something dark, something off. It was subtle, almost imperceptible, but you could feel it, like the quiet shifting of tectonic plates before a catastrophic quake.
Then, under his breath, barely more than a whisper, he uttered a single word.
"Tainted."
It landed like an irreversible diagnosis, a label seared into your skin, a fact that had always been true, whether you knew it or not.
"I have to fix it."
The words were hollow. Void of real emotion. Spoken like an afterthought. A duty.
If anyone here was crazy, it wasn’t you.
"Let’s go."
His voice was measured, slow, as if testing the words, as if feeling them out himself, ensuring they fit within whatever logic governed his mind.
"We can deal with this later."
And just like that, it was decided. He turned away, moving with the same unshakable certainty as before.
Instead, dread curled in your stomach like sickness, spreading through your limbs in slow, creeping waves. Your pulse stuttered as Satoru took your hand, his fingers lacing through yours. The warmth of his palm was comfortable in a sense.
You should have felt relief.
He didn’t look at you.
Didn’t flash that smug grin. Didn’t tease you. Didn’t say a damn thing.
Just walked.
Silent.
Head bowed, guiding you forward like a silent accomplice.
The hallway stretched before you, sterile and pale blue, the kind of color that was meant to be calming but only made your skin feel dirty, wrong. You knew these halls now—the group therapy rooms, the medication table, the office staff area, the standard rooms where the normal patients were kept.
But this wasn’t that.
This was deeper.
The air shifted. The temperature felt colder.
Your fingers tightened around Satoru’s. "What’s the last test?" you murmured, trying to keep your voice steady.
His skin was clammy.
Cold sweat.
A small smile tugged at the corners of his lips, something softer than usual. Something wrong. His thumb traced slow, deliberate circles against the back of your hand—soothing, intimate.
Like an apology.
Suguru didn’t look back.
Didn’t seem to care that Satoru was holding onto you, didn’t seem to mind that the hands he used to hold were now intertwined with someone else’s.
He just walked.
And then—
Unbothered.
The door.
Something different.
Suguru reached into his pocket, pulling out a key. Not one from his usual keychain.
Something meant only for this room.
A cold prickle ran down your spine as the small hairs on the back of your neck stood on end. The air felt heavier, charged, the silence pressing in. Something wasn't quite right.
Where were the nurses?
The ones who usually hovered, who handed out little paper cups of sedatives, who whispered among themselves when they thought you weren’t listening?
The ones Satoru always gossiped with?
Gone.
The hallway was silent.
The key turned in the lock.
A slow, deliberate click.
The door creaked open, revealing a room stark and clinical, stripped of anything human.
Centered in the middle, like an altar, stood a medical table.
Satoru squeezed your hand. Tighter. Like he was preparing you.
Your pulse thundered in your ears, the walls pressing in, your breath coming too fast, too shallow. The air felt thick, suffocating, as if the room itself was shrinking. And then—your gaze fell to the cart beside the table.
The electrodes. The wires. The leather restraints.
No—
The word stuck in your throat, thick and suffocating, choking you before you could even say it aloud. A wave of nausea rolled through you, cold and sharp. Your knees buckled, your body reacting before your mind could fully catch up. Every nerve screamed at you to run.
But Satoru didn’t let go.
"No," you gasped, collapsing to the floor, forcing yourself into dead weight. You pushed back, twisted, resisted—anything to keep from being dragged inside.
Satoru’s grip only tightened.
He was stronger.
"No - no, please!" The words broke from you, frantic, raw, barely holding shape. You kicked out, your body writhing in desperation, fighting against the inevitable. But Satoru just kept pulling, his hands steady, his strength sustained.
Your nails dug into his arm, clawing, desperate to hurt, to leave a mark, to stop this—
But there were no scratches.
Suguru had trimmed your nails.
"Protocol," he had said.
A sob wrenched itself from your throat, broken and shattered.
"Angel."
Suguru’s voice was soft. Warm. Loving. Like he was about to kiss you goodnight.
But he wasn’t.
Because this wasn’t a goodnight kiss.
This was electroshock therapy.
Something traditional.
Something brutal.
Something meant to fix you.
And the worst part? Satoru still wouldn’t let go.
Satoru flinched. Just for a second.
You screamed. Raw, guttural—desperate. It wasn’t just fear. It was betrayal.
The long fingers of his intertwined with yours twitched ever so slightly, like he wanted to let go, like he wanted to change his mind—
But he didn’t.
His grip remained firm, unyielding. A tether holding you down, delivering you to the inevitable.
"Shhh, princess," he murmured, his voice unbearably gentle, a cruel mockery of comfort. His free hand rose, brushing a damp strand of hair from your face with a touch too tender, too familiar.
Like he wasn’t dragging you to the table.
Like he wasn’t helping Suguru break you.
"Don’t make this harder on yourself," he whispered, his thumb stroking slow, deliberate circles against your temple, his expression unreadable.
But his eyes—
His eyes were glassy.
Like he was trying not to cry.
Your stomach turned violently. Your body twisted, fought, bucked wildly against their hold, legs kicking at the linoleum, heels scraping, fingers grasping at anything—
"Please—please, Satoru, I’ll take the meds, I’ll do whatever you want, just—just don’t let him—"
The words cracked, fractured, shattered in your throat, weak and pleading in a way that made you sick.
The weight of Suguru’s hands came next.
Steady. Unyielding. Final.
Like iron shackles pressing into your shoulders, pinning you in place.
"Angel," he sighed, exhaustion bleeding into his voice, like you were being difficult. Like this wasn’t the most terrifying moment of your life.
"You know this is for your own good."
Something inside you snapped.
"You don’t get to decide that!" you sobbed, thrashing so violently that, for just a second, you nearly knocked him off balance.
Nearly.
But Suguru had always been stronger.
They both had.
Your knees buckled, their hands dragging you across the floor, inching you closer—closer—
To the altar.
To your undoing.
Your screams felt smaller in the sterile, hollow air.
"NO—PLEASE!"
Suguru tilted his head, his violet eyes still so soft.
"Why do you always have to fight us, angel?"
His voice wavered—just barely.
Not an insult.
Not an accusation.
A plea.
Like he was asking why you wouldn’t just let him love you.
Why you wouldn’t just let him keep you safe.
A sob ripped through you as you felt it—the cool, sterile touch of metal against your back.
The restraints came next.
"No, no—Suguru, please—"
Your voice broke on his name.
For just a fraction of a second, his hands paused.
His expression flickered.
His fingers twitched.
Like he remembered something.
Something important.
Something about you.
The way you used to lay beside him on quiet Sunday mornings, tracing absentminded circles into his chest. The way you’d whisper I love you against his shoulder before rolling out of bed, before rushing to work, before leaving him behind.
The way you used to trust him.
And now—
Now you were afraid of him.
His lips parted, just barely.
For a second, you thought he might stop.
That maybe—just maybe—you had gotten through to him.
That maybe he would undo the straps. Take you home. Hold you the way he used to. Tell you he didn’t mean it.
That this wasn’t necessary.
That he loved you.
But then his jaw set.
And his hands kept going.
"This is necessary to keep you pure," he whispered, like he was reassuring himself, not you.
The restraints tightened around your wrists.
"Suguru, don’t do this," you whispered, voice pleading, voice breaking.
No response.
Just the final, deafening click of the straps locking into place.
Satoru let go of your hand.
The absence of his touch felt colder than the room itself.
"You’re scaring her," he muttered, voice tight, like this was hurting him, too.
Suguru didn’t respond.
His expression had smoothed into something distant.
His hand shook—just slightly—as he reached for the electrodes.
"NO—DON’T—PLEASE—"
Satoru sighed, rubbing at his temple, shaking his head like this was all just so exhausting.
Then he leaned down, brushing his fingers over your forehead in something almost affectionate.
"Shhh, princess," he whispered.
"It’s just a little reset." As he placed the clothed gag in your mouth.
Suguru’s hands were steady as he placed the electrodes against your temple, securing them into place with slow, deliberate precision.
His fingers lingered.
For just a second.
Like this was the last time he’d hold you.
Like he didn’t want to let go.
"You’ll feel so much better after this," he murmured, voice softer than before. Like he was convincing himself. Like he was telling himself this was right. That this was love.
Like he was hoping it was.
"This is mercy, angel."
"This is love."
Satoru pressed a lingering kiss to your forehead.
And Suguru flipped the switch.
Pain detonated behind your eyes, blinding, white-hot, like lightning through your skull, like static in your veins - erasing, ripping, rewiring.
Your body jerked, your spine arching off the table, muscles seizing, breath vanishing.
Through the haze of agony, you thought you heard something.
A voice. Maybe Suguru’s. Maybe Satoru’s.
Maybe both.
"Shhh, angel."
"It’s okay."
Everything went black.
"We love you."

Minimal social contacts. No schools or universities. The most you can hope for is homeschooling. They will be against you working. Darling, the Twins are some of the best assassins. Anyone could want to hurt you to get revenge on them. No one in the criminal world should know about your existence.
Another important point for them is the need to frequently change their place of residence. Despite owning properties in various locations around the world, they prefer not to stay in one place for too long. You will be able to visit a bunch of different countries and cities. As a compromise, the Twins are willing to occasionally return to the place you liked living the most. But only on the condition that you behave well.
It's most likely that such family relationships have developed since your shared childhood. I can't imagine these guys taking someone off the street and suddenly placing them in their family. That's impossible. They don't trust anyone. They don't let anyone get too close. But the fact that you grew up with them is more plausible. The older you all got, the deeper they got into the criminal world, the more they protected you. It was a slow and gradual process. Because of this, you didn't experience a strong shock from the restrictions and simply got used to these circumstances.
Tangerine is a bad cop. He constantly forbids everything and is the first to punish. It's important to him that you obey. But he does this not for his own sense of control, but so that you are always prepared for a dangerous situation. He does not tolerate fooling around in the face of a threat to your lives. If he says to hide and stay quiet, you do it. If he says to run, you don't ask questions and run.
Lemon is the one who pushes you into silly, funny adventures and then pretends he had nothing to do with it (an absolute rascal). After that, he throws crackers into your room window to make the punishment a bit more bearable. He relies more on your ingenuity and cunning in a dangerous situation. In his opinion, Tangerine underestimates you.
Punishments, though unpleasant, are not too harsh. They may lock you in a room for a few hours to a few days (Of course, they will continue to feed you. This is not torture). You may also lose various privileges, such as walking around the city with your brothers and some types of entertainment. There is a possibility of receiving a temporary ban on using the internet.
About the internet. Negotiating with them about this was the most difficult thing in your life. But through arguments (mostly Tangerine's shouting) and discussions, you all managed to find a compromise. They allowed it, but set several rules for you.
Rule #1: Maintain anonymity.
Rule #2: No real-life meetings.
Rule #3: Tangerine can read all your messages at any time. (Sometimes this "honorable" task falls to Lemon. Usually when Tangerine is busy. Then Lemon takes your phone and with the most concentrated expression he can muster, reads memes for 10 minutes. Afterward, he tells Tangerine there's nothing suspicious in the messages. This guy is the best bro in the universe.)
Most often, Tangerine is the one you go out for walks with. He takes you to trendy boutiques and restaurants. Sometimes it seems to you that he does this just to have a reason to give a menacing look to other visitors who dare to flirt with you, or to start a fight with those who are rude. You roll your eyes every time at his nasty character when you get kicked out of a trendy restaurant because of a fight or his foul language. (God. How does this guy manage to work undercover? He has zero patience.) He simply shrugs and says it's not his fault. However, Tan genuinely enjoys spending time with you. He listens attentively and remembers everything. Tangerine feels a slight guilt for partly keeping you away from their lives and constantly disappearing on missions with Lemon. But he understands that this part of their life is dangerous. Therefore, he tries to make up for the lack of communication with these walks. He hopes this will help you not feel lonely. Sometimes when he pulls a stick out of his ass, you have a lot of fun with him. He taught you how to shoot a gun and basic self-defense techniques. At the same time, he's confident that these skills will never be needed for you. He and Lemon always watch over you and are ready to remove anyone who gets in their way.
Lemon is the one you spend lazy evenings with. Watching movies and eating all sorts of goodies are your main goals on every such evening. (He always suggests watching Thomas & Friends, but you swear that soon you'll start feeling nauseous from how often you've watched it.) Lemon is more approachable of the two brothers. Because of this, you talk more openly with him and often trust him with important secrets. Lemon honestly keeps it (which annoys Tangerine, but he can't do anything about it), but only as long as it's not something really important that he feels needs to be discussed with his brother. He often gives great life advice, though he disguises it as characters from the Thomas. Also Lemon loves to get on Tangerine's nerves through you. If there's something you can do to annoy Tangerine, under Lemon's careful guidance, you'll do it. And you don't mind. When else will you have the chance to get back at Tangerine for being such a jerk?
This work lay in drafts for a very long time. Now I have translated everything. Woohoo! (Reminder: English is not my native language. There are mistakes here)
Please don't read this if you are uncomfortable with the yandere! Pairing: Yandere! Ketheric Thorm x Reader, Yandere! Enver Gortash x Reader, Yandere! Orin the Red x Reader tw: platonic obsession, manipulation, restriction of freedom, mention of murders
I'm ready to throw an idea at you. Attention. You get into the bg3. BUT you aren't Tav and you aren't together with Tav. You find yourself among the Chosen Three. And they become platonic yandere!
Ketheric Thorm, Enver Gortash and Orin the Red will know that you know about their future. You know how to achieve certain events, as well as how to prevent it. Keeping you close is not only a necessary measure, but also an advantage. From now on, they must do everything to prevent Tav from finding out about you and taking you away.
You spend the least amount of time with Ketheric Thorm. As the leader of the army, he is always in the most dangerous places of the war. Besides, the Moonrise Towers are a dangerous place. There are a lot of killers there. You are usually in full view of Ketheric. Over time, you begin to get used to it. Ketheric listens, but often doesn't pay attention. You can tell him anything. At this time he goes about his business, sometimes nodding to you. But if you suddenly ask him a question, he will simply look at you menacingly, making you afraid. The old man is not angry. He just didn't remember anything you said and doesn't want to admit it. Your voice helps him not to worry. If you're still talking, it means you haven't been eaten. Therefore, he can continue his business. When you leave the Moonrise Towers, Ketheric looks with bitterness at the things you leave behind. It reminds him of the times when he was still a father. Perhaps he will put your drawing or note in one of his books.
Orin will become friend or foe depending on your decision. If you refuse to help them, She will find ways to make you talk. Her ideas about the world are very perverted, so friendship with Orin barely differs from enmity. She will take great pleasure in fooling around with you. She likes to scare you by telling you colorful ways of killing you. You will probably not be able to make friends because of her. It's hard to trust someone and tell your secrets when that someone could be Orin herself. She will need time to convince Gortash and Ketheric to allow you to visit the Bhaal’s Temple. They don't trust Orin. The more disgusted you are by the atmosphere of her temple, the more fun she will experience. In the depths of his bedroom, Orin will get a little soft. She will let you play with her hair. And she will talk about the teachings of Bhaal, but not with the intention of scaring, but with the desire to share something hidden for her. She will also want to teach you how to make a sacrifice to her god correctly. If you refuse, she will be upset, but will not insist. (Gortash made it clear to her that she should not break you.) Then she brings you back and avoids you for a week or two. It's new for her to feel this way. Not even her family received this honor. When she calms down and copes with unusual emotions, she will visit you again. And she will promise to kill you in the most beautiful way possible when necessary. It's not a threat. This is her expression of love.
It is with Lord Gortash that you spend the most time. His castle is safe, and the Steel Watchers walk around the city everywhere. You are well dressed and always look great to match him. High society is asking questions about who you are to him. Are you a lover, relative, decoration or pet? Only you and Gortash know that you are a means to achieve his goals. And only Lord Gortash knows that you are someone he has grown more attached to than he should have. He gives you almost anything you want, but expects you to cooperate in return. In addition, Gortash believes that just looking beautiful next to him is not enough. Therefore, all your free time (which is not much) will be occupied with training. If you escape from the castle (which is absolutely impossible), the guards will bring you back. Gortash is perhaps the only one among the owners of three stones who understands that your usefulness is not constant. Everything can go along the route you know with minor changes in his favor. Or it may happen that what is happening will become completely new even for you. Sometimes he jokes that he will throw you out when you become useless. But you still remember how Lord Gortash got angry at the impudent Count for asking to take you as his wife and Gortash ordered the insolent man to be executed.
----
Somewhere in the universe, the Emperor turns the table in a rage and demands Tav to quickly find and save (kidnap) you. (I don't know how he found out about you ._.)
----
Tav sighs tiredly and silently agrees. They're too tired of all. They just hope that their new future ally will be a little less problematic than everyone else in the camp.

Pairing: Yandere! Luka Couffaine x Reader
tw: disturbing thoughts, noncon touching, noncon kissing.
Viperion strides forward, slowly approaching you. You look around in fright. There is nowhere else to retreat. He drove you to a dead end. There is no further escape from this alley. You will not be able to pass by the hero - not enough space. You lean your back against the wall.
"You don't need to be afraid of me. I will never hurt you," the guy says softly.
He has a nice voice, but it doesn't help you get rid of the stress in any way. You are too scared by his previous actions. Where is Ladybug when you need her so badly? They finished with Akuma. Shouldn't she come to pick up his Miraculous?
"What do you want from me?"
"I just wanted to touch."
Viperion speaks as if nothing strange is happening. He reaches out and gently strokes your face. You flinch. He's a hero. So why is he so creepy? The guy leans even closer, gently touches your face with his lips. Kisses are as light as a butterfly.
"Please don't." Your voice breaks. You sob. Tears begin to flow from your eyes.
"I know. I'm so sorry. Sorry." Viperion showered you with a mixture of kisses and apologies.
This apology is not sincere. You don’t understand what he’s apologizing for if he’s not sorry. If he doesn't stop. Your legs give way, but you don't fall. Strong hands are holding you. His body supports yours. Too close. Hot. You don't immediately realize that he is saying something again.
"You have no idea how difficult it is to control yourself. When I see you ... I want to do so many things."
Under the mask, Luka barely finds coherent thoughts to justify himself. Conversations are not his forte. It's much easier to express feelings through music. Or through actions like now. He's ashamed, but he doesn't want to stop. Along with the Viperion, something awoke in him. Something vile and disgusting. It, together with boundless love and care, fills the insides, reaches the edges, spills out.
"Let me do it honey. I promise you won't remember."
The hero intercepts your hand before you can hit him. His lips finally touch yours. Luka's world explodes into a completely new unknown melody. No other instrument in the universe is capable of producing such a delightful sound. Viperion has a hard time pulling away from you. You are absolutely stunned.
"I love you, my melody."
He looks at your face for the last time and reaches for the Miraculouse. There are a couple of minutes left. Just enough to deal with the villain.
"Second chance."
Viperion uses the ability. Now instead of you, there is a tense Ladybugin front of him. He is grateful to her. She entrusted him with the Miraculouse. While Viperion voices his partners the previously worked out plan once again, Luka fights with a sense of shame. He is not worthy. They shouldn't have relied on him. He let the Ladybug down and used the Miraculouse for personal gain. Then he remembers you again and the shame disappears. Time returned back. There is no need for him to be ashamed of something that actually did not exist.
This time, Luka will give up the Miraculouse after winning. But he will look forward to next time.
Dammon x reader
You work in a shop not far from his forge.
Dammon takes a break every day to look at you with a yearning look.
You don't even realize that someone is watching you while you go about your normal routine.
Dammon greedily remembers every little thing about you.
Every evening, before going to bed, a man scrolls through your image in his head.
Sometimes his brain rewards him. He dreams about you. How you tenderly hug him, seeing him off to work, and kiss him passionately when he returns.
He wakes up lost and excited. Half asleep, he searches for you with his hand, but then remembers.
Dammon is terribly embarrassed.
He cursed himself for never having decided to talk to you.
The next day, his day off. Dammon feels especially brave. He finally decides to visit your store to get to know you.
Can you please do a platonic Yandere Adrien, Luca with a reader who wants to be in a relationship not with them but like in general, what would they do if they tried to ruin her relationship when she got one and she found out🙏
Please don't read this if you are uncomfortable with the yandere!
Pairing: Yandere! Adrien x Reader, Yandere! Luka x Reader
tw: platonic obsession, deception, manipulation
Thanks for waiting! I continue to work on fulfilling requests. BUT I have to inform you that I will no longer accept new requests for ladybug. I don't feel inspired by this fandom anymore.
ADRIEN
-The day you confessed your love was the worst day of Adrien's life.
-Your best friend, your closest person, almost a family member suddenly ceased to be important to you.
-You started canceling appointments with Adrien to go on dates with your boyfriend/girlfriend.
-Adrien was so disappointed and angry. But not on you. You will never be to blame. This terrible man has entangled you in order to ruin everything.
-The first thing Adrien wanted to do was use Cataclysm on your boyfriend/girlfriend. It would be easier that way. Faster. But he didn't want to scare you.
-Adrien needed to be cunning.
-He stole tests from the principal's office and planted them in your boyfriend/girlfriend's bag.
-Your school is prestigious. Such an act will not be forgiven.
-The news of the expulsion of this parasite (as Adrien mentally called this person) made you cry. Adrien was very sorry, but he had to do it.
-A little later, you found one of the tests in Adrien's bag when you wanted to get his notes. It fell out and went unnoticed. Until this moment.
-He realized what happened when he saw the disbelief on your face and the damn test in your hand.
-You asked him accusingly what that meant. Adrien ran through ideas in his head in a panic. Classmates came to the noise
-And he came up with…
-They (the pest) must have planted it. They were jealous and wanted to frame Adrien.
-His classmates quickly supported him. (He always knew that his good reputation would come in handy someday)
-How can kind, dear Adrien be capable of such meanness?
-Your mistrust hurt Adrien. How could you doubt your best friend? That person is a bad influence on you. Perhaps you shouldn't date them anymore.
-You felt ashamed
-It’s hard to leave, but your friend is there. He will help you write a goodbye message for them. He'll even send it for you.
-Adrien will free you.
-Your friendship will be safe again.
LUKA
-Three days. For a whole three days, Luka waited and hoped that you pranked him.
-Hope disappeared when you introduced Luka to your boyfriend/girlfriend.
-Luka still didn't understand how this happened. He was always there.
-Your happy face brought joy to Luka endlessly. He allowed this relationship to exist.
-He was ready to endure and listen to conversations about this person as long as it brought you pleasure.
-But the days passed, and you smiled less and less.
-Of course, your new boyfried/girlfriend became the problem.
-Luka began to unobtrusively push you towards breaking up. Why do you need a relationship in which your partner only upsets you?
-The guy’s patience finally ran out when you came in tears and said that you saw Him/She hugging someone else.
-If Luka were not a restrained person, he would have akumatized to take revenge. But you needed comfort.
-For the next couple of days, Couffaine stubbornly thought about getting rid of the obstacle once and for all.
-Your ex gave him the idea himself.
-They persistently tried to contact you. You didn’t want to communicate with him/her and gave Luka your phone so that he could delete the messages. Luka used this against him/her.
-Luka convinced you to block your ex on all social media. And the letter from the mailbox explaining that he/she hugged his cousin was replaced with another one - with threats. It was not difficult to fake the handwriting following the example.
-Photos taken without your knowledge were thrown into your school locker.
-No one could ignore something like this. Your parents finally went to the police.
-Luka invited you to stay with him while the trial is ongoing. His family didn't mind, and yours decided that a change of scenery wouldn't hurt.
-The guy felt bad that he had to scare you. He mentally promised to compensate you for all the ruined days.
-Everything was going great until you found all these damn pieces of paper. Copies of your ex's fake letter. Dozens of unsuccessful attempts to forge handwriting.
-Why? Why did you open this box? Why did he forget to throw it away?
-Luka was terribly upset. But he knew what he had to do. He has to correct his mistake.
-He pushed you into the closet, snatching the letters from your hands, and locked the doors.
-Luka hastened to get rid of the evidence.
-He'll think of something. Without proof, no one will believe you. He will say that you had a fight with him and after everything that happened, you are simply confused.
-He will tell you over and over again that there were no letters until you both believe it.
-Luka did all this for you. You will understand this. He will always protect your friendship.
