A/N: I'm working on updating but it will be slow. I am sorry. I'm trying the balance quite a bit right now. Thank you for being so patient with me 🙏
Kiba still remembers the day he met her. He had just joined the royal palace servant sec as a butler as a means to support himself and the dog his father gifted him before passing. He never expected to stumble across such a beauty as a servant in the palace but it made sense at the same time. She deserved to be surrounded by jewels and gold. He was like a lovely sculpted art that needed to be viewed and her heart was warm and caring. he was drawn to her like a flame. It was nothing like he'd ever felt before. To him using mere words to describe her was like blasphemy.
They had become such close friends. She'd tell him everything and play silly pranks on him. They were often even refereed to as the dynamic trouble duo at times because of how destructive they could be together...
Together...
Kiba had always wanted more than just to stay by her side. She was so bright and on par with him. He wanted to start a family with her but so many things got in the way. The rule where servants weren't allowed to date each other was one but he often though to hell with it...they would both quit and find better jobs where they could be together or open up a bakery!
So it broke his heart to find out that wasn't even possible either. He was there of his free will but...she wasn't. This was all her life was. She was never a servant she was A SLAVE!...
This very thought made him feel like crying.
He never understood...it never made sense to him how she was always so cheerful and so bright and positive even though her freedom was being withheld from her. How she could smile so sweetly in his face and not be miserable.
Kiba couldn't leave her. Even if he couldn't have her he never planned to leave her side. He...
He loved her too much to leave her alone here. Shackled by a past she had no control over.
He'd just watch her from afar and hold his tongue. It was better than nothing. But watching makes you realize other things.
Like your'e not the only one watching.
Kiba never noticed it but everyone watched her too. Adored her...wanted to possess her..abuse her tan supple skin and suckle on her small young body.
He wasn't the only person whose heart was captured by the little light...so it was no surprise to him when that fucker put his hands on her. He dirtied her. He darkened her and filled her up with his cum.
'That should have been me'
He felt guilty for thinking such a perverse and dirty thought of the woman he loved so dearly but that man didn't love her. He loved the idea of her warming his bed although he had a mistress for that already. He took hold of the woman he loved and...for some reason it also felt like he took away all chances of him ever having her heart.
She was going to be a mother. They were going to kill her had they known. That's what they do to keep the secret of the dirtiness of the royal palace quiet. You're disposed of and thrown away. He couldn't let that happen. As much as he hated the children in her stomach that weren't his he would never leave her to die in such a cruel way. So when she asked him for help he thought with his heart instead of his brain. It didn't matter if he would get killed had they been caught or if they found out. He would die for the woman he loved and never betray or abandon her.
He planned it all out and it took about 3 weeks. He built the little house and started the garden. He monitored the guards closely and quietly in the night his love ran off into hiding.
They questioned him profusely over the months and sometimes would go as far as to follow him whenever he left the palace or home to try and see her. He was closest to her after all. He expected nothing less but he wouldn't say a word. He knew nothing as far as they knew. She never told him a word.
The torture they put him through was unbearable but he couldn't tell her about it. It would worry her to see the cuts and bruises and to know of the beatings and whippings he randomly had the deal with... looking into the eyes of the very monster that defiled his light and saying he didn't know where she was.
Tonight he was especially angry. Rumour has it both women are barren. Prince Sasuke had no chance of attaining the throne now. A male heir would have made him more eligible. The male heirs Naruko had birthed would have given him the edge he need and desired so desperately.
The butler was chained up tight again and beaten with leather cat-o-nine that had been dipped in alcohol and salted as though it were meat just to add burning into the mix of the torture.
Kiba's voiced echoed through out the palace walls as they began at the skin and had started hitting bone with the whip. Amongst those cries of pain was no confession useful to the young prince.
Prince Sasuke was furious by this. He cursed and screamed at the top of his lungs about it, crumpling that note the bitch had left him.
He revealed to Kiba about the note that Naruko had left behind without his knowledge and the butler's heart dropped. This was why.
She told him. That's why he was looking for her...that's why he was so angry...She..
"She told you?"
Sasuke paused at this statement and smirked wickedly.
'Got you"
Kiba bit his tongue. He had accidentally revealed when he had been denying for months. He knew something.
The monster before him became far more fierce and frightening. At that moment, Kiba was prepared to die for his heart stopped when it spoke.
"And I thought you knew nothing~"
He called in his men as he stared directly into Kiba's eyes.
"Set the town on fire and everything around it till the girl is found. Set the forest," Kiba flinched and began to panic a bit inside. This little action didn't go unnoticed, " ablaze... if you ha-...Thats where she is...isn't she~?"
Kiba wanted to scream at the top of his lungs. Tears began the flow from his eyes that he couldn't stop. His love was in danger and it was all his fault.
Sasuke's smirk widened as he changed his orders to search the forest and looked down at the poor butler with satisfaction.
"Take this as your punishment for harbouring a criminal and disobeying the royal family...Kiba? was it? You're useless to me now. Kick him out. He doesn't work here anymore...oh..and report him as dead. He doesn't have much longer anyway. No one is to know of today. Keep the search private."
The prince left the prison swiftly in anticipation. He was going to get what he wanted-No! Needed! so badly. A son.
Kiba was released and thrown out violently. He needed to find her before they do. He needed to save her! Bearing through the pain he ran to her. He needed to...despite his ringing eras and open wounds he set in his mind that he was going to save her before they found her but his mind was too far and his heart was too desperate for the order of "Follow Him" went on deaf ears.
He could not save his light.
