Work Text:
Late at night, you were finishing the last of your chores, cleaning the kitchen floors. You grew used to the constant smell of blood and human remains. Better them and you, as long as you keep your head low and your mistakes at the minimum so you wouldn’t end like them,you thought.
“Hi!” Cassandra’s voice resonates in your ear from behind and you yelp loudly, your hand immediately on your chest to calm your frantic heart.
“Lady Cassandra” you gasp “you startled me...” the predatory looks she gives you is nothing new, yet there’s something about the glint in her and the smile she gives that looks almost playful.
She circles around you and you can’t help but lock eyes with her. She moves gracefully until she crouches in front of you and smiles.
“You look so cute when you are scared” you blushed and averted your eyes. Cassandra makes you look at her, placing her sickle under your chin. “I rather like the way your pupils dilate when you are looking for a way out... “ she tilted her head, making her messy dark hair fall to the side ”...or is it something else?” you gulp without breaking eye contact, it would be a lie to say that you weren’t attracted to the middle Dimitrestru daughter.
“I’m sorry my lady. I wasn’t expecting you to come this way, that’s all” you managed to say without stuttering as you got on your feet,the sickle didn't follow you and you watched the grin on her face widen as she towered over you and leaned closer almost whispering in your ear.
“There’s always a reason to come this way when there’s a frightened little bunny to play with…”
“I.. I see” you blush and look down. “Is there anything I can help you with lady Cassandra?”
She takes your hand and kisses your knuckles and you do your best not to squeal as she looks deep into your eyes.
“I believe there’s quite a few things you could help me with,”she gently bites your index finger. “... bunny”her eyes never leave yours and your thought process stops as you feel those sharp fangs grace your skin hoping it was something else she was biting.
“I.. uh… I’m here to serve my lady” Cassandra smiles at this, grabs your hand and starts guiding you towards her bedroom. As soon as you are inside she locks the door, throws you on the bed and pins your arms above your head with one hand, her other resting on your hip.
“You are such a warm bunny…” she licks from your neck to your jawline and hums “I bet you taste delicious too…”
You whimper at her teasing but can’t bring yourself to give any kind of answer. If these were your last moments you might as well enjoy them since it wasn’t such a bad way to go.
But instead of the pain you were expecting, you felt her entire weight on top of you. Was she… purring? you could hear something close to a pur coming from her but it didn’t seem like it was from her chest… was she actually cuddling you?
She completely let go of your hands and pulled you impossible closer. You didn’t know what to do with yourself, you weren’t expecting this kind of treatment.
“Mmmh, don’t move....” she mumbles as she nuzzles under your chin “I want to stay like this for a while… you are so warm, bunny” you nod, hesitantly you wrap your arms around her, she responds by humming and kissing your neck, her eyes close after that and her breathing evens out, it seems like she fell asleep.
She seems so calm now. Always the mischievous creature looking to startle you, finding ways to make you squirm or make you fail at your duties. She seems to have forgotten what she was going to do with you originally in favor of warming up with your body heat. You are not complaining though, this was way better. This was a side of her that you know most maids don’t get to see of the middle child and for this little treat you were grateful. You dozed off soon after.
