Sinful encounters (Charles Grey x Reader)

Sin: n. Something regarded as being shameful, deplorable, or utterly wrong.


If sinning wasn't enjoyable it would disappeared centuries ago, everyone knew, everyone did, yet...they deny it


But when you are the artificer of your own sins, how can you possibly deny you don't love them? when you found yourself trapped in a vicious circle of pleasure, your mind goes blank and your body seems to have it's own will


Something like that happened to our beloved Earl Grey, Charles Grey. Butler of the Queen, a noble and a magnificent swordsman. He was the spitting image of perfection, even  covered in white pristine like an angel


But they're right when they say "don't judge a book for it's cover"


Behind that white pristine, behind that sly smile, that perfection, that royal posture, behind all of that laid his inner demons-alone, hungry for new sins-


Those demons that were asleep almost all day, always awakened at the exact moment (name) places a foot inside the room that Charles occupies. They tempt him to take a  bite, to taste the flavour of freedom, of pleasure, to be filled with lust and heat and forbidden love


But he tries to shut them, to cold down. It was a bad idea, he was engaged, he was an Earl, she was a commoner, what about his future wife? what about his title? what about his dignity? so confused...yet, his heart knew what he wanted. He wanted her


Just as much as she wanted him


She wanted his love, his lust, his heat, his everything. He wanted her love too, but he didn't know what to do, he just needed a little push and he'll meet a great fall to depravaty


And she gave him that push, she pushed him so hard that he fell on his face. Before he realised it, he was loving her, he was giving himself to her, all of his love, all of his dignity, all of averything


He loved her so much, but he was engaged. He couldn't call off the wedding, he couldn't show her publicly, he just couldn't!


The secret meetings, the heated glances among the crowd, the teasing smiles, the sweet nothings secretly whispered in the middle of the dance, the stealthy getaways after lustful nights, the walks in the garden of his manor, everything was making him sick!


Why couldn't he love her properly? he didn't want his title if he wasn't able to do so


Ah, one bad thing about sinning is that, whe you get in, you can't leave by any methods


He started to hate the woman that kept her away from his arms, after all, his fiance was getting suspicious and began to visit his mansion more often, just to made sure he wasn't with another female. The first time it took them by surprise but made it in time to escape, but it started to get more and more difficult to sneak out with someone breathing on your neck


His family took notice of his change of humor too, he became more angry, more anxious and paranoic. Even his mother asked him what was the matter


And he would gladly answer that his fiancee was the problem, (name) wasn't. She provided him all the love he ever wanted, all support he required, he was in love and so was she...but he couldn't tell her that, could he?



Then, one night, after a long awaited encounter with his lover, he made a plan with her. Like Bonnie and Clyde preparing everything for a robbery, they plotted a murder


If the annoying woman wasn't going to leave them alone, then she would need to leave by force


It was simple. A single stab to her chest and she was dead, the body disappeared and his problems gone



Said and done, a few days ago, a search for her began


Many thought that Charles was devasted by his fiancee's death and locked himself inside his room, refusing any food or visits. But just the ones that lived in the manor knew the truth



Like Romeo and Juliet, he was gone the moment he stabed her, gone like the wind with (name), they didn't came back. Two runaways in the night, hand by hand, started their story together, like Ulises when he started his odyssey. The both of them knew it wasn't going to be easy, but as sure as the sun shines everyday-even behind thick clouds- they will love each other


Sinning...what a marvelous thing
