Chapter Text
Malleus was from a extremely well-known rich family with a long and noble ancestry, you were not. You had to keep your relationship a secret from the public eye. The only ones who knew were of course Lili Vanrouge, Silver , Sebek Zigvolt were all apart of Malleus's honorary family.
We all have our strange habits and our dark haired noble had one too, he was passionate towards anything gargoyle.
So usually your dates with him are inside abandoned places or ruins it was out of the public eye, he would always redesign it. If you're asking yes it was aesthetically pleasing.
Well one day y'all were on a date in this huge run down mansion, dead trees all over the lawn a few graves here and there. It appeared not too long ago and nobody knows where it came from.
" hey Malleus, I don’t know why but I feel Deja vu walking here " looking up at your 183 cm boyfriend.
" hmm.. I thought I was the only one " malleus looks around the estate he really did feel a certain familiarity with the place it was both comforting and melancholic and he didn't know why, he could feel it in his gut that somethings going to happen.
You took his hand in yours smiling freely, slightly swaying your intertwined hands.
" well that doesn't matter right now, so how was your day?." Smiling at him with such happiness and love. He could honestly melt right then and there, he was so used to people with ulterior motives or people who were to scared to him in the eye. Such the woes of a powerful powerful family heir, yet you smile at him like he was the absolute best thing in your life.
" hmm, well it was uneventful like usual. I how so wanted to get out of the stuffy meeting rooms to spend time with you, love." The teasing glint in his eyes made you blush but you knew he was being genuine.
" mo~♪, stop teasing me " You playfully punch his shoulder yet the man beside lets a out a small laugh
“ You are truly lovely my dear I’m blessed to have you as my lover. ” he looked so unreal his usual serious expression turned gentle, as he places his hand on your cheek, his forehead on yours.
Green flickering lights surround you both but the both of you didn’t notice, you both were in your own little world.
Malleus couldn’t get enough of looking at you, you are truly beautiful and he couldn’t be more blessed to have you. He wants to appreciate this comforting silence and presence in his ever so busy and gray life but now with you in it, it was fun, colorful and worth it if he could spend it with you.
He chuckles, you have a confused expression. You ask what is he chuckling at?
“ Well, little beastie.. I just remembered the first time we met. ” Your face flushed it was quite amusing to Malleus.
“ I remember it like it was yesterday, yet it has been 3 years since we’ve met my dear. ”
“ ahaha we really don’t have to talk about that!” you set your eyes on the grass.
“ nonsense my dear, you could have done worse. You just didn’t know me.. ” he places his hand on your waist and on instinct you place your hands on his shoulder.
“ but it was still kind of embarrassing! ”
______________________________________________________
It was a cold night in the mansion where you stayed at. It was an inheritance from your father who was reported missing on a vacation with his particular ugly yellow shirt. Yet he was a kind man, irresponsible yes but he had some redeeming qualities. Had a fair obsession with grand castles he even bought one but it was too abandoned to even live in.
' well even uncle crewell couldn’t handle his shenanigans ' you sigh, you loved your father very much but sometimes he was just a bit too eccentric.
He even adopted a particular looking cat? Raccoon? Both? It had gray fur and blue highlights. Yet that raccoon cat was the one who comforted you when your father went missing.
' haah I can’t sleep, father went missing only a year ago.. '
Getting up from your bed careful not to wake up Grii the raccoon cat, you grabbed a coat from your closet and hurried out of your room and walking through the hallway with huge portraits that your father had bought when he went abroad. It always felt like the portraits were alive but you brushed it off.
Finally arriving at the front door. You grab your boots and finally went outside walking towards the gate.
You saw a tall figure in the distance. You felt your headache, a figure of a horned man flashes through your head. Stumbling a little you try to balance yourself by holding unto a tree branch.
' huh who was that? '
Feeling something or someone was near you shouted.
“ Reveal yourself! ” you hear a small chuckle from right in front of you well more precisely near the gate only a few meters away from you.
“ oya oya, I didn’t think there was anyone living here.. ”
A man about 183 cm in height, black hair , green eyes.
Walking closer to the man in question. Leaning on the gate you looked up to the surprised mans face.
“ So who are you? ” you ask staring straight into the strangers eyes.
The man let’s out a hearty laugh head tilted back and you let out a deadpan expression.
' just who was this man? '
' ahh its been a long time since someone has ever been so casual with me '
“ oh my you don’t of know me? ” The handsome man said, amusement in his tone.
“ Am I supposed to? ” you look him straight in the eye.
' he has pretty eyes…'
The handsome man lets out a another laugh.
“ Well I suppose not but it is quite a rarity in this country.. ” a serious look on his face.
' oh goodness he is attractive.. '
“ are you perhaps from another country? ” the man asked genuinely curious.
' hah he maybe cute but ughh it’s not like everyone knows you ' rolling your eyes on the inside.
“ yes actually.. so what’s your name ? ” you said getting straight to the point.
“ hmm I will have to keep that a secret. For your safety”
'???? My safety what are you some big shot??? '
“ why do you say so? ”
“ that is also a secret. ”
Letting out a defeated sigh. You shake your head and put your hand up to the handsome man.
“ Well if you aren’t going introduce yourself.. I’ll go first.
“ ( y/n) (l/n) a first year at cnr the college of night ravens. ”
“ oh what a surprise I am a third year there. ”
“ you are the first commoner to join the school are you not? ”
“ Yes my father was the headmaster and I am particularly close with the current headmaster. ”
“ WAKA SAMA ”
The peaceful aura was replaced with loud shouts for Wakasama.
“ well it was interesting talking to you but I must go..”
“ hm oh ok. ”
“ well then, until next time little beastie ”
That was the start of the nightly visits. That soon became love.
______________________________________________________
You met with Malleus's extended family composing of his care taker and his two guards a few months into your first year together.
“ I remember the time where you stepped on my foot the first time we danced together. ” He smiled at the memory of your embarrassed face, swaying your bodies as the wind seem to accompany you both on your dance so are the mysterious green luminous lights.
“ Well I remember the time where I made the first move. Ah I can remember your flustered face so clearly ” you responded calmly but Malleus could hear your teasing tone.
“ Hmm that certainly did happen… but I think I’ve gotten better with affection” you felt warm kisses on your neck slowly making his way to your chin, he places kisses all over your face.
“ hahaHAHA Mal-mal that tickles! ” you tried to push of your clearly stronger and taller boyfriend.
Malleus hasn’t felt this happy since millenias ago.
' millenias ago?? What am I talking about I only just turned 21.. '
Snapping out of his thoughts he looked at you. You were still smiling so why was a pale face blending into yours? His head aches again.
“ mal-mal! ” eyebrows furrowing in concern.
“ Is there something wrong ? Are you alright? ”
“ It is nothing dear. ”
“ hmm.. are you sure? ”
Chuckling you are being very cute right now in his eyes.
“ yes. My love, I am quite sure ” you took his hand and placed it on your heart.
“ Can you feel my heart beat? You make me feel this way and I love you so much ” smiling at him, eyes filled with so much adoration.
You and him are happy at that moment, nothing will ever go wrong in that moment. [ :))) ]
