"None shall have you but me!"
Shrieks and high-pitched laughter tore through the dungeon walls as Mina was forced into a dingy cell. She could feel her captor's thin hands clamp over her hips like a pair of vice grips and squeeze until she hollered in pain.
"Does it hurt, my precious?" He hissed and stepped out of the cell to lock her inside. Twirling the keys around his bony fingers and cackling, he continued, "Where is your knight in shining armor? I thought he was supposed to protect you."
Mina was in a daze. She stared up at Genya through the steel bars and struggled to stand up.
"Where am I?" She asked in a startled voice and glanced around the dungeon for any familiarity. It was such a disgusting place, like something straight out of Castlevania. All manner of insects seemed to infest the cobbled floor and walls. An ungodly stench was the result of stagnant water leaking through the floor above.
"However," Genya approached the cell and touched Mina's tiny hand gingerly. "If you were to consent and become my bride, I would consider releasing you."
Mina's face went white with horror. She quickly pulled away from the prison bars and retreated to the corner of her cell like a hunted animal. Genya wouldn't stop staring at her with that strange look in his eyes. As if he could destroy her innocence in that very instant.
"Oh, did I frighten you?" Genya asked with false sympathy and leaned on the cell door.
"This is insane..." Mina replied in a whisper and huddled against the wall for security. She could no longer bear his gaze, the icy stare of a raving madman, and turned her face towards a small window just above her head. Gloom was all the outside offered her. The sky was completely devoid of light and anything wholesome. It made her skin crawl.
The cell door slowly creaked open and Genya was suddenly upon Mina. He bore down on her shivery frame almost immediately and chuckled, "There's no use trying to hide it, my dear. I can taste the fear on your every ragged breath. How intoxicating..."
Mina froze in the moment. Blood drained away from her face as Genya's hands started to misbehave. He whispered one vulgarity after another into her ear until she could take no more.
"Stop it!"
Genya was sprawled out on the dungeon floor with a red mark splayed across his pale cheek. He rubbed the sore spot with a sinister grin and stood upright. No sooner had he reached out to seize Mina by the throat than a sharp crack echoed behind him. His hand had been lassoed by a leathery whip and he was forced back into the prison bars.
"I don't think so." Julius stood behind Genya and tethered him to the steel before addressing Mina, "Are you all right?"
She had collapsed onto the floor out of shock and silently stared up at Julius with tears in her eyes. Her vision blurred and she could barely make out her hero's image as he scooped her up into his arms.
"I know you're scared." Julius began in a softer tone as he crossed the room to where he had made his entrance. Light flooded onto the gray scenery as Julius stepped out of the dungeon. He smiled down at Mina and added, "It's okay now. Don't cry anymore."
Mina groaned and sat upright. The bright landscape had melted into the solitary darkness of her bedroom. She rubbed her eyes and yawned; it must have been a dream.
She found herself laughing quietly before settling under the blanket, "That's the last cup of oolong tea I drink before bed time."
