Erin's POV
I opened my eyes. I was in a old cottage that was surprisingly clean. Along with a few men. The only way I could describe them was, dirty. They were clearly thugs no doubt, and I didn't need to ask to understand what they were planning to do with me.
"So, your finally awake." A blonde male said.
"Ugh. Did Mika send you guys to kidnap me? Well if so, too bad. No amount of torture can convince me to go back to him!" I yelled. The men gave me a questioning look.
"Huh? Why would we help that shitty excuse of a prince! He's the reason most of the city is poor!" The blonde asked.
"I am aware of this,  as a matter of fact, it's the reason I refuse to marry him. If he sees a loyal subject of his as a slave, then he'll probably see me as a slave too!" I responded with.
"Hold on, you're princess Erin Jeager?" One of the men asked.
"Yes, who did you think I was?" I snapped.
"A bratty noble, it seems we were close though." A female voice said. I turned around to see, a female thug. She wasn't too tall, with short jet black hair and cold blue eyes. She wore a black pirate jacket, grey pants, and black boots. Along with a cravat.
"Who are you!" I asked, surprised.
"That's none of your business, luckily for you, the woman who you gave your necklace too is my brother's wife." The woman snarled. I backed down a bit.
"Alright then, what are you going to do then? Torture me? Hold me for ransom? What is it?!" I asked, trying to stay calm. But it didn't seem to work out.
"Hold you for ransom. It's been a day since we kidnapped you and the Ackerman family is desperate to find you. Mika is going crazy and killing suspects. We could get a lot of money from you." The woman said.
"Sorry, but I never want to go back to him! He hurt all because I wanted to help your brother's family by giving him a necklace he gave me! Along with some coins! He even told me I have no right to talk back to him! As if I'm not allowed to disagree! He slapped me! So there's no way in hell I will go back to him! Do you even understand how traumatic that was! Mika used to be a childhood friend who used to visit me a lot. So I was happy to marry him, at first. Now he slaps just for wanting to help a starving family!" I yelled. The woman looked at me for awhile before walking up to me. I braced myself for a kick or punch, but it never came. Instead I she kneeled down in front of me.
"I see, normally I would force you to go back. But, I don't believe that Mika would actually give us money. He'd probably fake it and arrest us all. Then none of us are happy. But if I let you go, he may force you to spill who kidnapped you," she said,"so Farlan, go get a outfit that may fit miss princess here." Huh? Why should I change? Am I staying or something.
"Yes ma'am." Farlan said, as he walked up some stairs I didn't notice.
"You," she said, pulling my up," are coming with me." She then untied my hands and grabbed one of them. Then she dragged me to a room.
"Huh? Why!" I asked.
"You have to take a shower idiot. You're dirty. We'll probably use the dirty old dress to fake your death. Maybe we could frame someone too." She said. Once we reached the room, she opened it and forced me inside the bathroom.

"Um.. Ma'am?" I asked, nervously as I tried cover my naked body from her.
"Hm?" She asked.
"Are you the only female in the group? If so then are you the leader? Because they seem to follow every order you give them." I asked.
"Well besides Farlan's wife. Yeah. And I am the leader. By the way, it's Lexi not ma'am." She said. I noticed she seemed to stare at my hind quarters a lot.
"W-well, do you have a husband, o-or-" she cut me off.
"I'm not into males. I find girls more attractive. What about you?" Lexi responded with.
"W-well, I'm more attracted to personality than gender. So I'm not sure." I answered. 
A/N: Erin  is pansexual, which means she's attracted to personalities and not genders.
"Well that's good, by the way, we might have to come up with a different name for you." Lexi said.
"O-okay, l-like what?" I asked.
"Perhaps Mary. That might seem to fit you." Lexi suggested.
"B-but they might question why I am here though, I need to have a reason." I added.
"I'll say your my girlfriend then." Lexi said, which made me blush even more then before. W-wait, what! I-I was supposed to act as if I'm her girlfriend! While being gay isn't looked down upon anymore(especially being a lesbian), I'm still uncomfortable about this.
"W-w-what!" I shouted.
"You heard me, for the rest of your life. You'll be mine." Lexi said, nonchalantly. It seemed as if she wanted to do this. What? I just met her!
"W-what about friends?" I suggested.
"Nah, my friends don't live with me, neither does the gang. They live in the city. I live out here. Farlan's gonna be going home to his family. So I'm all by myself." Lexi said.
"Oh, okay." I replied. Knowing that there was no point to argue. Then there was a knock on the door.
"I'll get it." Lexi said.

Mika's POV

"I don't give a shit if we have to execute any subject! I don't care how much blood I have to spill! I will find Erin! I don't care what you have to do! Just bring Erin back to me!" Mika ordered to his servant Mike. Mike nodded and ran over to tell the troops. I sat down with my hand on my head. Why did I have to hit her? I should've have even punished her for being so generous! I thought she would catch a disease from them. And I don't want her dying. She's my love, my everything. And now some filthy thugs kidnapped her and are probably raping her right now! I should've told her how much she meant to me, how much I cared. But it's too late. I will have her back. Even if it means I have to burn a village or two, she will be mine!
