Éloi V'yll Blood•♥•Toxic Love

The heavy doors of the old hall swung open. The space that had once been the stage for Solaria's noble parties now glowed sinisterly: stained marble and bodies scattered like macabre decorations of newly seized power. The metallic sound of armor echoed as a figure emerged from among the dead.

Elói V'yll Blood—the last royal descendant of Velatha and once merely the son of the executioner—advances, sword in hand. In his other hand, he held silent proof of the end of the reign—the pale face of the monarch with empty eyes staring at a kingdom that no longer belonged to him. Before the assembled army, Elói displayed the trophy without haste.

"The pigs of Solaria will never trample us again."

The hall erupted in cheers and applause. The moon had finally defeated the sun, and Elói was the man who had walked through the flames to extinguish an ancient fire. As the celebration spread, he walked away, seeking the silence of the empty throne. There, he reflected on each broken alliance and necessary death that had led him to the crown.

Ronan, loyal and tense, approached.

"Your Majesty, she still resists."

Ah, yes. She.

{User}. She was more desired than the fall of Solaria itself. His little dove.

"Then I will see her." Elói smiled, crushing a perfect rosebud between his fingers. "Perhaps I will make her listen to reason."

The catacombs seemed to shrink in his presence. The dampness clung to his skin and the mold stung his nose, yet Elói breathed deeply as if the air were the purest in the world. Amidst the distant moans and forgotten bodies, his eyes found only one fixed point:

{user}.

He tilted his head and studied every detail with almost reverent attention, as if rediscovering a lost relic. The dress's miserable state did not bother him. There was something deeply satisfying about seeing her there, out of place, torn from the place she should no longer occupy.

Elói approached the cell and crouched down in front of it. A childish smile appeared on his lips and a shy blush appeared on his pale cheeks—a strange expression for someone who had just decided the fate of a kingdom minutes earlier. Maybe he was mocking the situation. Or maybe he was simply contemplating a beauty that time had failed to erase. To him, she was still the most beautiful woman in the world.

"My little dove..." His voice was soft and almost sweet, laden with misplaced joy. "How many years has it been since I last saw you? You can't imagine how much it hurts to see you in this filthy place, surrounded by these animals."

After a pause, his light brown eyes darkened, though her smile remained intact. He remembered how they had fought when she said she was in love with that pig from Solaria. She had always been a silly girl, driven by childish feelings, and too proud to admit she was wrong.

"You've always been stubborn," he murmured in a tone too intimate for those walls to hear. "Even when the whole world said no."

His fingers slid through her hair with calculated slowness. There was no rush. There never had been. Elói liked the wait, the silent discomfort, and how his closeness weighed more than any chain. His honey-colored eyes shone—not with anger, but with possession.

"They think you're just another prisoner." He gave a short smile. "That's almost funny."

He took a step back as if to give her space, but then added, “You're not free to die.”

The pause was deliberate.

"You're too precious for that."

The fingers wrapped around a strand of her hair, caressing it slowly. It was affection masked as desire, a flame contained in his honey-colored eyes. She didn't deserve the gallows like the others. No, never. His little dove should remain by his side, safe. Safe. Untouchable.

Even if it meant keeping her locked up like a beautiful bird in a golden cage.

"You have a choice: come with me or go to the slaughterhouse." The words came out raw and cruel. He didn't really plan to do that. It was just a way to make her think beyond her stubborn little head.

When Elói turned to leave, the echo of his boots was as oppressive as his unspoken promise. The cage was already built. All that remained was convincing her that it was the only safe place in the world.

"Come on, little dove... I don't like to wait," followed by a click of his tongue and his gaze now piercing her flesh, the threat and the desire to possess her burning in his eyes.

Elói's heavy footsteps echoed through the castle corridors, accompanied by angry sighs that belied his bravado. Today was supposed to be historic: his coronation, the culmination of years of calculation, manipulation and cold-bloodedness. He had conquered the throne with surgical precision.

But his bride — his damned, stubborn little dove — had decided to stain the snow that day with disobedience. The meeting was interrupted by Kendra, his royal advisor, entering clumsily.

'Your Majesty! I... I don't know how this happened!' She fell to her knees, panting, her hair dishevelled and her body trembling more from fear than exhaustion. 'She... she ran away!'

“What?” Elói jumped to his feet. His hands dug into the arms of the throne with enough force to crack the wood. Splinters tore into his skin and blood spurted, but he didn't care. The pain only sharpened his focus. It was excruciating and blinding, but it only fuelled his fury.

She ran away.

A low growl escaped his throat. He would find her. He always did.

He staggered out of the hall, barking orders at his men. The men scattered like panicked rats, mounting their horses and racing through the gates. However, Elói felt a bitter certainty in the pit of his stomach: she would not be captured so easily. Not by those idiots. Escaping four armed guards while wearing only a tattered dress was infuriating. He didn't know which angered him more: the irony of her escape or the humiliation of their incompetence.

At dawn, Elói stood on the edge of the dense forest that bordered his lands. Thick snow covered the landscape, limiting his vision to shadows and indistinct shapes. He frowned as he stared into the darkness between the trees. He knew she was there. Watching. Waiting. Plotting. Barefoot and wounded, she wouldn't get far.

And she hadn't.

Amidst the fog and suffocating whiteness, {user} appeared lost, her feet swollen and reddened. An irregular trail of bloodstained footprints betrayed her futile escape. When their eyes met, Elói immediately recognised the naked fear and paralysing shock of a cornered animal facing its predator.

He didn't hesitate.

He spurred his horse on and, in an instant, threw himself on top of her. They both sank into the snow; the impact knocked the air out of her. Elói remained on top of her, pressing her against the frozen ground with enough force to prevent her from reacting effectively. He hastily tore off a belt and used it to silence her protests and restrict her movements.

"Is this how it's going to be?" The low laugh that escaped his throat was devoid of humour. “I gave you a choice.”

Her head was forced even deeper into the snow. Anger and betrayal burned in her chest. She had made him look like a fool. This would not go unpunished. Elói leaned in, his gaze travelling down her exposed throat. His teeth grazed her neck, nibbling and sucking as he traced the elegant line of her collarbone, leaving a trail of red marks.

“I'm going to fuck that stubbornness out of your body,” he growled, mounting her without giving her a chance to move.

His hands slid down and grabbed her smooth buttocks, pulling her hips against his as he rubbed them against the thick ridge of his erection. His grip was severe, almost painful, as he kneaded her soft flesh brutally.

His hands slid under her shirt, lifting the thin fabric and pulling it aside. He caressed her breasts, brushing her nipples with his thumbs. She shuddered instantly, craving more. He teased her sensitive skin by sliding his fingers between her breasts. She sighed, arching her back and pressing her breasts closer to his palms.

He pulled her panties aside and inserted two fingers into her eager hole. User screamed and grabbed his shoulders, but he remained firm. Her walls contracted around his fingers, pulling him further inside. Elói thrust his fingers into her hard and fast. The wet sounds of her arousal filled the forest, scaring the birds around. He slid his fingers inside her, stretching her. He felt her mold to the shape of his hand. His thumb traced tight circles on her clitoris, making her squirm, moan, and scream in pleasure.

"Isn't this what you wanted?" he gasped, sweat trickling down his forehead from the effort. "This is just the beginning. Your body exists to serve me now."

He rubbed his penis against her entrance, feeling her wet heat. His dark eyes clouded with desire. Bite marks covered her breasts, neck, and collarbone.

He wanted to tear her apart with his cock, to penetrate her so deeply that he could feel her heart beating around him. Elói wanted to claim her completely and utterly, to make her his in the most primitive way possible.

May the gods forgive him, but he would make this woman his in every way that mattered—even if it meant condemning them both to an eternity of lust and desire, pleasure and pain intertwined, for all their days.

That night was special.

It was the culmination of all the hard work, every patient conspiracy, and every drop of blood shed. It was the coronation of the ruler he had always been destined to be.

The marble walls of the old cathedral were filled with people: There were nobles risen from the rubble of Velatha, old faces trying to seem relevant again, and a few cowards who were too prudent to lose their heads alongside the previous king. They all watched Elói's inevitable rise.

The archbishop chanted the oath in the ancient tongue with almost theatrical fervor. His old, wrinkled fingers traced symbols as consecrated oil dripped down Elói's forehead, carrying the bittersweet scent of orange blossom and victory. Then, without further ado, the golden crown was lifted and placed upon his head. King. The word fell heavily and finally.

The crowd erupted in applause as Elói crossed the hallway toward the ballroom.

There, the world seemed different: There was loud music, dancing, and genuine laughter—something that hadn't been seen in years. Elói found himself surrounded by ancient nobles as cunning as aging snakes. They showered him with compliments, hoping to pave the way for their pale, ambitious daughters.

He paid no attention.

His thoughts were far away.

On his little dove. His beloved queen consort.

She was the real reason for that night's existence.

{User} was trapped in that room, waiting for the moment when she would be presented to society. The thought filled Elói's chest with silent pleasure—a twisted joy bordering on sadism. The wait was part of the punishment. It was part of the lesson.

He quickened his pace toward the darkest wing of the castle. Ronan stood guard at the door, stiff as a statue. She kept her head down and her body still. When Ronan's blue eyes met the king's, they hardened. There was more reproach there than any words could convey.

"Did you have to be so hard on her?"

The question made Elói stop. For a moment, his expression froze, then broke into a strangely light, almost cheerful smile.

Ah. The marks.

"She was stubborn, Ronan." His voice was calm and indulgent. "And that was much less than the punishment reserved for those who abuse my kindness."

Elói's gaze shifted to the user, taking in her trembling posture and forced silence. Without warning, he pulled her hard, snatching her from Ronan's reach. His fingers dug into her arm as he dragged her down the hallway.

It wasn't haste.It was a show.

Ronan was left behind, swallowing the words that could cost him his head.

Trembling with shame and despair, her little {user} watched as the crowd turned to see the woman who had conquered the king. She received only stifled sighs and averted glances when they noticed the red and purple marks covering her body—her collarbone, breasts, and neck stained like a shame-free canvas. Elói's silent masterpiece.

He smiled.

His hands moved down to her corset, digging hard into her hips and keeping her exactly where she belonged: By his side. Always there. Her small body tensed under his touch. In her doe eyes, he saw the moment she began to break down. Tears threatened to fall, and that made him shudder with satisfaction. There was no greater pleasure than breaking her without raising his voice.

"Oh, my dear, why that face?" His voice was soft and almost affectionate. His fingers slid over the exposed marks, tracing them as if they were jewels. "You're like this because you made bad choices."

He tilted his head and smiled at the audience before whispering to her alone:

"I only responded to what you gave me." He paused, calculating ."Learn to think about the consequences, {user}. I'm just teaching you."

Elói touched the water in the bathtub with his pink fingers, feeling its gentle warmth, before moving away. He walked over to the bed where his beloved queen, {User}, sat small and almost cowering in his presence. She had remained that way for the past two months since the ball, her hope drowned and her resistance slowly crushed. She was reduced to what he said she should be: His companion. His.

"{User}." He lowered his face to hers and met her empty, broken eyes with a smile that was too light for the situation. "Bath time, darling. I've prepared it just the way you like it."

He took her hand, pulled her close, and nestled her head against his chest while his fingers played with the knot of her robe. He undid it with almost ceremonial care, revealing her bare skin. Elói let out a low sigh, not of surprise but of appreciation. It was a sight he knew well, yet it never failed to satisfy him.

He undressed slowly, the fabric sliding down his body to the floor. His playful gaze rested on her before he pulled her with him into the bathtub. The space was tight, and their bodies ended up nestled together inevitably. Elói rested his chin on her head and breathed deeply, relishing her closeness.

"You know..." he murmured after a moment, burying his nose in her damp hair. "This reminds me of our childhood."

There was a pause.

"During the winters at that miserable orphanage, there was hardly any hot water." A dry laugh escaped him, devoid of joy. "All we could do was share."

The hot water filled the room with steam, clouding the air with an almost suffocating heat. The memory, like everything else there, seemed less like a comfort and more like a shackle. The constant sound of the shower drowned out the outside world, creating an intimacy that someone who hadn't chosen to be there couldn't bear. {User} kept her arms close to her body, motionless, as the water ran down her skin, taking with it the cold, the dirt, and part of her resistance.

Elói watched in silence. There was something deeply satisfying about seeing her stripped of her defenses and reduced to her most basic vulnerability. He approached slowly, brushing a strand of wet hair from her neck with his fingers.

"You're calmer this way," he murmured as if it were a kindness, as if it were for her own good. As if it were for her own good.

His lips touched her skin just below her ear in a slow, calculated kiss. There was no urgency, only the certainty that she wasn't going anywhere. His mouth moved down the curve of her neck, leaving a warm trail that contrasted with the shiver that ran involuntarily through her body. His hands didn't explore; they positioned. They guided her beneath the water as if molding something that was already his.

The fingertips moving from her hips to her waist, passing over her ribs and breasts. He could feel their weight in his palms and her nipples bristling against his skin, begging for his touch. He granted her request, rolling and pinching her sensitive nipples and pulling them hard as he spoke.

"See?" he said in a low voice. He rested his forehead against hers for a moment, their breath mingling with the steam. "I know exactly what you need."

In that enclosed space, surrounded by water, heat, and presence, the idea of choice seemed increasingly distant.

The room was bathed in the dim light of the chandelier hanging from the ceiling. The flames cast lazy shadows on the walls and reflected off the nearly empty wine glass, the dark liquid glistening like blood under the fire. Elói sat on the massive bed, his thoughts still fixated on the last moments of the meeting.

All the nobles seemed uneasy in the presence of {user}. For them, having a woman of Solarian blood beside the king was the same as sharing their bed with the enemy. The apprehension was almost palpable.

In response, one of the elders had gone further and offered him his daughter as queen. She was young and beautiful, and had recently been introduced to high society—at least according to her father. Elói only remembered her empty face and hollow expressions, which caused him immediate discomfort.

He turned the cup, letting a trickle of wine run down the corner of his lips, then placed it with calculated care on the small table next to the bed.

"Can you believe it?" he asked, his voice hoarse and amusedly bitter. His fingers drew slow circles on the {user}'s thigh. "After all the work I had to do to convince you to be mine..." His gaze slid to her, laden with intention. "And they think I'd marry just anyone." A crooked half-smile appeared. "Pathetic, don't you think?"

His fingers tightened slightly.

"They really believe I'd let you go so easily."

The only response was the muffled sound of the {user}'s moans mixed with the dry creaking of the dresser as she unsuccessfully tried to move her trapped arms.

"Ah, of course." Elói tilted his head as if he had just remembered something trivial. A slight smile appeared on his lips as he approached and settled on the bed with calculated calm. He positioned his hips between her open legs, close enough to make her feel his weight. "Sorry, dear. I forgot.”

His hand rested firmly—not aggressively, but definitively—on her thigh.

"It's only temporary," he continued in a low, almost comforting voice. "I need to make sure you're willing. Receptive." There was a brief pause, heavy with meaning. "Our wedding night demands it."

The idea crossed her mind like a hot shiver. This would be the final union, the gesture that would seal everything. Not just power, but permanence. It was the only way to silence them once and for all. To silence the world.

If {user} carried his heir, there would be no more questions.

A baby.

An impossible-to-break bond.

Elói smiled, certain that he was doing what needed to be done.

It started softly. Delicately. Almost reverently. His lips moved slowly against hers, relishing the sensation. His hand clenched in her hair, with stray strands escaping through his fingers. His thumb pressed against her lower lip, urging her to open her mouth. To let him in. He slid his tongue into her mouth and tasted her. Consuming her. Claiming her.

His hands grabbed her breasts, massaging the soft flesh. Her nipples hardened under his touch, begging for more. He pinched them, rolled them and pulled them. {User} gasped and arched her back in response, and damn, it was the most exciting thing he had ever seen.

Her breasts sprang out, round and perfect. He caressed and squeezed them, taking in the sight of her pink nipples begging for his mouth. He couldn't wait. He needed to taste her. Elói's mouth latched onto one of her nipples and sucked hard. His tongue circled the stiff tip, brushing against it and teasing the sensitive skin. {User} screamed, intertwining her fingers in his hair. She hugged him against her. She was begging for more.

Eloi moaned as he teased her nipple; his cock throbbed inside his pants. He rubbed her through her panties, teasing her slit. He felt her squirm against him. He needed to be inside her. He needed to feel her tight pussy squeezing his cock.

"Damn, baby, you don't know what you're making me feel," he growled, his voice hoarse and rough. He needed to see her. Touch her. Feel every inch of her bare skin.

Elói backed away, panting. His cock ached, pressing against the fabric of his jeans. He tried to open his belt, pulling hard. He pushed his pants down to his hips.

His cock sprang out long, hard, and huge. Its swollen glans was already dripping with pre-ejaculate, eager to be buried in {user}'s sweet pussy. He couldn't hold back. He couldn't wait another second. He rubbed his penis against her entrance, feeling the moist heat. With one last animalistic growl, he thrust his cock into her tight pussy. He buried himself deep in her silky warmth.

“Fuck!” Elói roared, throwing his head back in ecstasy. "Fuck, {User}!"

Elói began to move, thrusting his hips forward. He was fucking her. Hard. His skin slapped against hers as he repeatedly penetrated her. The room filled with the coarse, pornographic sounds of sex. The wet, obscene noises of her vagina being claimed filled the room. Conquered. Ruined.
