Pleasure for Two, Punishment for One - Part Two
Summary: Genshin!au, Empress!au. Its finally Scaramouche's turn to be dealt with after having to watch you and Aether. Except the fact that you are not done with his punishment and instead drag it out until he is completely pliant and submissive for you.
CW: Dom!reader, sub!character, reverse harem, bondage, tentacle use, OOC, mentions of voyeurism, throatfucking, gagging, unsafe sex, cum eating, urethral insertion, edging, use of "no" but there is a safeword system so reader ignored him when he says no, one line mention of rimming, anal, aftercare.
Part One
On top of the wrinkled bed sheets laid a naked and exhausted Aether. He was covered in sweat, cum, and drool but he couldn't bring himself to care. All he could feel was a satisfying ache run throughout his body. He was still trembling and just coherent enough that he could barely make out the feeling of your hand on his back as you rubbed it. One of your fingers grazed his backside and he couldn't suppress the flinch. His hole was bright red and sore to the touch, indicating just how well used he was. Despite wanting to curl up to you, he couldn't even make himself move.
He vaguely made out the breathless chuckle that left your lips.
"Are you okay to stay there for a while?" It took a second to process you were talking to him. Fighting the sleepiness that was starting to settle over him, he wrestled with keeping his eyes open.
"I still have someone else to take care of," He managed to spot you, who was also nude, but then he was able to remember one more person that was in the room.
Huh, I forgot he was here, Aether distantly thought. In the same position as earlier sat Scaramouche. Instead of the intimating concubine Aether was used to, sat someone who looked completely debauched. His body was shaking, constant watery sobs and pleads left his lips, tears fell freely from his eyes and the most noticeable were the tentacles that continued to explore and play with his body.
You brushed hair behind Aether's ears while waiting for his answer. It seemed to take a few seconds to register that you were asking him something. However, in the end he was able to nod. Knowing he was most likely about to fall asleep you decided that you would clean him later. Once you're done with Scaramouche it would be best to just let them soak in the baths for a while.
Speaking of Scaramouche, you moved to get off the bed and then stood in front of him. In the back of his mind he was able to understand that you were in front of him, but he struggled with lifting his head.
"I - please - I can't, i cant, i cant, i cant," he repeated as his head fell forward, his forehead against your thighs. He had no strength left in his body and every nerve felt like it was on fire. With no idea how long he was forced to deal with this pleasurable bordering on painful torment while watching you and Aether, it felt like it would never end. He stopped counting after Aether came the fifth time and you the second.
"Is it hard? Does it hurt?" Your words may have been sympathetic, but your tone was anything but. There was mockery underneath your words and your hand roughly pulled his head back and off your thigh. He felt a rush of tears well up in his eyes at the rough treatment.
"I'm sor-" he voices fell off into a sob when the tentacle that was in his ass gave a sharp thrust causing his body to jerk as best as it could while still wrapped in ropes.
"Hmm? I couldn't hear you." You squatted in front of him, your hand still in his hair. He was granted another thrust, followed by another and he was hoping that maybe this time you would let him cum. However, the tentacle also resumed its place back into his urethra. Just a few thrusts would have made him cum, he knew that, and you definitely knew that based on the way you manipulate the tentacle with your magic. You were dead set on not letting him cum.
"I'm - ahh - sorry. pleaseplease." Scaramouche was beginning to let out garbled nonsense. His prostate was being hit with each thrust, but he couldn't cum. He couldn't cum. He couldn't cum. That thought brought fresh tears to his eyes.
He could feel the burning in his stomach as he was forced to linger on the edge. His cock felt like it was about to combust, all slick and red. The tentacle slithered down his urethra, refusing to let him properly cum and scaramouche just broke, gasping sobs leaving his lips as drool slipped out of his mouth and onto the floor.
His hair was let go by you and he slumped down a little bit due to the loss of tension.
"Scaramouche," he could vaguely recognize your voice through his muddled mind. "Look at me."
You were speaking, he could hear you, but he couldn't comprehend what you were saying. It wasn't until a hand gripped his chin and angled his face towards you that he was able to focus on something. The rest of the world blurred out as he focused on your face and your face alone. When you saw the glossy look in his eyes, indicating how lost in his mind he was become, you softened your tone.
"I suppose it would be too much to expect you to listen. At least not when you're as mindless as you are right now." You offered false sympathy as you lightly shook his head with your fingers that were gripping his chin.
"Y'know many people complain about the words you spew out. About how you're too rude, too condescending, too arrogant." One of your fingers traced the glossiness of his lips as you spoke before dipping into his mouth and running over his tongue, coating your fingers with his saliva. "Afterall, this is what got you in this position in the first place."
"I guess I'm going to have to make it to where you won't be able to speak for a while."
The next thing Scaramouche was able to distantly recognize was the feeling of something soft on his tongue. His tongue moved at the pressure and felt around the new intrusion in his mouth. He was rewarded with a small moan that left your lips. For the first time you placed a gentle and delicate hand on his head which caused Scaramouche to lean forward, pressing against it and seeking out for that comfort.
"ah - ack," Scaramouche was interrupted with a garbled cough as he pressed forward trying to chase the comfort of your hand on his head, unintentionally pushing your cock deeper into the tight cavern of his throat. Even with the coughing and the obvious fluttering of his throat, you refused to pull out, opting to hold him still and force him to get used to the feeling of your length down his throat.
You gave him a few seconds to try and calm down until the majority of the coughing subsided. Scaramouche squirmed, his hands aching to come and rest against you but all that did was ignite a slight burning in the skin around his wrist due to him straining against the rope.
You pulled back a fraction but still kept the head of your cock in his mouth. Scaramouche eagerly sucked in as much air as possible, his chest heaving with his deep breaths.
Deeming he had enough time to situate himself you tightened the grip in his hair, "Be good for me and maybe I'll let you come afterwards."
That was all the warning he got before you pushed his head forward and thrusted your hips as well. With the first thrust, you only fed him half of your cock before pulling back a little and thrusting once more, this time forcing it all the way down his throat. He squirmed and tried to pull back instinctively due to the pressure in his throat, but you held firm. You kept him against your pelvis, his nose grazing your lower stomach before loosening your grip in his hair, letting him pull back just enough to where he could breath.
You slowly thrusted into his mouth one more time until his lips were at your base before pulling out. You did this a few times before you finally started to speed up. Scaramouche was unable to focus on using his tongue or suctioning his lips, but you didn't seem to mind, happily fucking up into his mouth. Instead of worrying about that he just adverted his eyes up to your face and tried to focus on that - wanting to see that you were feeling pleasure from your harsh treatment. However, this was deemed nearly impossible due to the tears that were welling up and trickling down his cheeks.
Glug, glug, glug, gurgling sounds filled the room along with soft moans that left your lips. Looking down you had to still your hips to stop from coming. Scaramouches eyes were unfocused and glossy and his lower face was covered in cum, drool, snot, and saliva. You could tell by the way he stopped struggling against your hold that he had finally fallen into that submissive headspace.
The loss of fullness in his throat led to scaramouche blinking away his tears and trying to look at you, afraid that he had done something wrong. Hurriedly, he had stuck his tongue out and tried to lick around the part of your cock that remained in his mouth. To appease you he even tried to swallow more of your cock, until it once again touched the back of throat. Despite the small convulses in his body he did not try to move away.
"Fuck... you're killing me here." You had let go of the tight grip you had in his hair and instead rested your hand on top of his head. You took a few deep breaths in order to push down your arousal.
Once you calmed yourself down, you pulled your hips back a small bit before shallowing thrusting back in. You were gentler this time around, not making it to where he violently choked against you. Instead, you set a steady rhythm. With each thrust you would still yourself at the back of this throat for a few seconds to feel the convulsions of his throat. You would finally pull back once he started to turn a little red in the face. You kept this going until you felt the familiar twinge of arousal in your lower stomach.
"Shit," Your hips picked up their pace. "Be good for me and swallow."
Scaramouche flinched at the first taste that spurted onto his tongue before he eagerly swallowed it down. He struggled to swallow it all and instead some flowed out of the side of his mouth. You kept him held against your stomach before pulling back and taking yourself out of his mouth.
Scaramouche's throat was burning from the rough treatment, and he had hunched forward coughing.
It took a moment before he realized he was being moved. One moment he was situated on his knees and the next thing he knew he was face down on the ground. His muscles burned at the new position; his weight was now resting directly on his knees, and he tried to move them but was unable to do more than scooch them. He rested his cheek against the floor and shivered at the coolness which was in direct contrast to the heat that was run rampage in his body.
"haah.. plea-ase," His voice cracked when he felt your fingers replace the tentacle that was previously shoved up his ass. There wasn't as much of a stretch but the fact that you were now touching him instead of a tentacle caused his body to shake.
When you entered three fingers into him, he reflexively grinded back against them, desperately wanting to feel them hit that one spot inside him that always set his body aflame. You didn't reprimand him for that and instead let him do some of the work, opting to just curl your fingers.
"nghhahh, there, right there." he cried out, but his voice was so hoarse and choppy that you could barely make out what he was saying. Even as he kept thrusting back and getting his prostate hit, you weren't allowing him to cum. That damned tentacle that was in his urethra and the rope that was tied around his balls was constricting him. "pleasepleaseplease - out. Need it out," he wailed, and his body was trembling so violently that you were worried he would pull a muscle.
You pulled your fingers out of him and wrapped them around his thighs and gently massaged them. He whined at the loss of touch, but his body unconsciously relaxed under your fingers that were pushing into the muscle on his thighs. You kept doing that until he became pliant once more and was not at a risk of harming himself.
"Relax," you cooed, moving to grip both of his cheeks with your hands and spread them. A small chuckle passed your lips when you saw his hole gaping and fluttering.
"cant." He gasped out. "hurts... need t' cum. please plea - ahh!" A throaty scream escaped his lips when he felt your tongue lick around his rim. You moved to kiss his cheek and traveled kisses and licks up his spine until you reached his neck. Your fingers traced the intricate ropes before tugging them and forcing his upper body off the ground. You continued to pull until he was once more on sat up on his knees but now, he had his back pressed against your chest.
Your cock situated itself right in between his ass cheeks and you rutted against him. "Want to cum?" It was a teasing question.
Scaramouche weakly nodded. "please. 'm sorry, I wont - I won't" his throat was burning through his pleads and in some distant part of his mind he knew he should not be talking anymore but he couldn't bring himself to worry about it. "won't talk back, wont be rude. prom-promise."
You both knew this was lie and that in a few days' time he will be the same condescending and rude concubine he always is but right now at this moment, he completely believed what he is saying.
"Promise," you decided to play along.
"Promise," he whined out.
"Alright. You're done with your punishment. I suppose you should get your reward."
He felt the slickness of the tentacles leave his entire body. All that is left from them was a trail of wetness that left goosebumps rising in their wake. The second you pulled it out of his urethra a scream left his lips. His hips tried to buck away from the feeling but he couldn't. All those previous denied orgasms that were pushed back due to the tentacle stopping them came rushing over him tenfold. His cock spurted out load after load and it felt like a never-ending pleasure to him that was becoming painful. His body shook uncontrollably against your hold. He wasn't sure how it felt like he was still cumming, his hole gaping and spasming.
It took a while for his body to calm down and even then, he was still having shaking. One of your hands had wrapped around his waist and rested on his stomach and was rubbing small circles onto it. In his twitching, the hands behind his back had grazed your cock a few times and despite your own arousal pressing against him you were well aware that he could be too sensitive to deal with anything else.
Scaramouche had felt the twitching of your own cock against his back and fingers. Despite the oversensitivity in his body, he still craved for the closeness of you inside him. He could handle one more, he wanted to feel you inside of him this time instead of the sliminess of the tentacle.
"s'okay," he managed to whisper out. At the same time one of his hands clumsily grasped your cock. His thumb ran over the tip (or at least tried to) before struggling to position it at his entrance.
You raised an eyebrow, "You sure?"
He eagerly nodded, "please."
You positioned yourself at his entrance and was able to easily sink into him. The breath was knocked out of Scaramouche and a loud keen left his lips and his back arched. Once you were completely sheathed inside him you let out a shuddering breath as he twitched sporadically around you. You knew this would be a short round, Scaramouche would probably be able to cum one more time before his body would no longer be able to handle anything else.
You pulled out only a small amount before shallowly thrusting into him, trying not to hit his prostate just yet. With each thrust, small uh - uh - uh's passed through his lips. Even with these shallows thrust he felt his stomach tighten. His orgasm was building and embarrassingly quickly too. His crying only got louder because he knew he couldn't hang on anymore.
"c-cumming," he managed to wheeze out. His whole body became tense and he squeezed down on your own cock. You let out a groan of your own, a small orgasm wracking through your body. It wasn't overly strong but it did not bother you. Scaramouche's on the other hand was strong, too strong. His mouth fell open in a silent scream and his body had convulsed before he fell completely slack, mind falling in and out of consciousness.
He felt the tension of the rope released from his body. He was distantly aware that he was falling forward but he couldn't make his body move. He didn't hit the ground and instead fell right into your arms. He first recognized your scent and unconsciously nuzzled into your chest wanting to be surrounded by the smell. He felt a new pressure around his body but this time instead of the coarseness of rope he felt the softness of skin as you wrapped your arms around him.
You sat down on the ground and situated yourself before moving him into a more comfortable position on your lap. One hand came up to run through his tangled-up hair whilst the other took to wiping away all the dried up cum and drool. You couldn't do a perfect job with just your hand, but you managed to clear up some so that it was not sticking onto his face.
Scaramouche was letting out small puffs of air that had undertones of wheezes in them, showcasing how well used his throat was.
You should get one of the servants to make him a tea, you thought while your hand left his jaw and mindlessly went to rub his throat.
Scaramouche opened his lips but strained to say something, anything but he couldn't due to the throbbing in his throat from his crying and your treatment of it. He unconsciously squirmed away from the hand at his throat.
You were befuddled before realizing that he thought you were going to start another round since you usually place your hand on his throat during sexual encounters. Quickly moving your hand to his shoulder, your cooed at him and brought him closer to you.
"shh, it's alright you're all done." He lost the last bit of tension in his body and slumped against you. "You did so good for me." If he had the energy, he would have preened at your words but all he could managed was a shaky smile.
Neither of you moved from your position on the floor for a while. It wasn't until you felt his breath even out and his body become pliant that you decided to stand up. You kept him in your arms as you carried him to the joining bathroom. He let out small sounds at the jostling but did not open his eyes. You carefully settled him on one of the cushions set aside the tub and used magic to start the tub.
Once it was filled up and at an appropriate temperature you carefully maneuver him into the tub making sure not to aggravate any of the rope burns. You did not join him and instead, once he was settled, let go of him and went to stand up. At the loss of your touch Scaramouche couldn't help the panic that welled up inside him. His eyes snapped open and one of his hands weakly clutched onto your arm.
"Do - " He winced as the pain in his throat finally settled in. He wanted to tell you not to leave him, but he couldn't. You could see the despair in his eyes and reached out to pet his head before moving to caress his cheek.
"I have to get Aether too, lovely." Even with your reassurance he didn't want you to let go of him. He shook his head and clutch onto you tighter. He wasn't jealous at this moment but instead all he could focus on was the fact that in order for you to get Aether, you would have to leave him and that caused an unimaginable amount of panic to form inside him. He did not want to be alone when he was feeling as vulnerable as he was right now.
You let out a sigh and squatted down behind the tub and ran your hand through his hair.
"You trust me, right?" you kept your tone light as you played with strands of his hair. He had his knees curled up and was resting his head against them.
He nodded without hesitation, and you couldn't help the pride that resonated in your chest.
"Then I want you to close your eyes and stay in this position for 30 seconds alright." As you were speaking, you had let your magic cast over him and mimic an embrace. You also mimicked the feeling of your hand playing with his hair. Once you felt confident in your spell, you had slowly and quietly gone to grab Aether who was still laying on the bed. His eyes blearily blinked open when you lifted him in your arms.
"Finally done with him?" He whispered but there was no malice in his tone. He was well aware that Scaramouche had gone through a tough punishment and that he would be dealing with some discomfort for a while.
You hummed in acknowledgment as you reentered the bathroom. Scaramouche was in the same position as you left him, and you breathed a sigh of relief.
The tub was more than large enough to fit the three of you, so you had place Aether in and made sure the both of them were comfortable before joining them. You made sure to sit in between them because even in their headspaces (or rather Scaramouche's, Aether seemed more well recovered) they could spiral.
Within a few minutes of joining them, you could feel weight against one of your shoulders (Aether fell asleep first) and then on the other side of your body, Scaramouche nudged under your arm so that he could lay against your chest.

Summary: Empress!au, Consort!au. A daring noble lets themselves get carried away and believe that they can deal out whatever punishment they've deemed fit. Aether, protecting the others in the harem takes the brute of the punishment when the reader finally shows up.
Content Warning: punishment (not dealt from reader), mentions of bleeding feet, sexism (matriarchal au), hurt/comfort, reader gets revenge, internalized negative feelings, crying, mention of reader torturing rude noble (not described in detail), angst, Aether and reader's relationship may seem co-dependent towards the end.

"s' going on here."
The air became frigid. The previously smirking and cocky attendant froze, her hands tensing around the baton.
You walked in trailed by Aether's personal servant, Diluc, and Zhongli. You're facial expression did not change as you looked over the scene in front of you. You eyes trailed over the frozen attendant before turning to Aether. His eyes were red-rimmed but no tears fell. He was trying very hard not to cry from the pain, at least not in front of the cruel attendant - he refused to give them any satisfaction. He angled his head down when you came in the room, his undone hair acting as a shield. Thoma and Gorou were on the sides of the room, the attendants lackey's holding them down. Thoma was the one who was openly crying, a silent stream of tears slipping past his eyes at the scene. Gorou was not crying but the distress in his eye was very prominent. He also had bruises already forming on his arms, indicating that he had spent a good amount of time struggling against the hold against him.
The attendant struggled to find their words. "He - they were imprudent," spitting out words as she pointed towards Aether and the other two who were forced into a kneeling position.
Aether's servant ran past you and immediately rushed to Aether who was still being held down on the chair. He tried to remove the bar that was holding him down but was unable to.
"It was his choice to take on the punishment for those two." She pointed to Aether with her baton.
You ignored her as she tried to justify herself, heading towards Aether and the struggling servant. As you stood by the servant, they moved out of the way with a bow. You rested one hand over the bar holding him down and brought forth a rush of magic to envelop the bar. Under your magic, the bar turned to dust and ash, freeing Aether from the pressure forced down on him.
Standing up, no words left left your mouth as you nodded your head towards the attendant. Zhongli did not need any words said as he stepped forward. A look of outrage filled the attendants face at the gull of a man of all things confidently heading towards her, no indication of fear or repercussions.
Even with her former training, Zhongli moved too fast. Within a few seconds the baton was out of her hands and thrown across the room, expertly hitting one of the lackey's holding down Thoma with enough strength to knock them out. At the same time the lackey's were knocked down, the attendant had her arms twisted behind her, a snapping sound filling the air, and was thrown down on her stomach onto the floor.
More guards came in and took down the rest of the lackeys. None of them were gentle as they disarmed them and forced them down onto the ground. With a wave of your hands, Zhongli roughly tugged the female up and led her out of the room, the guards following him with the others.
Zhongli knew that you would personally deal out punishment later, right now all they were required to do was take them down to the cells.
Diluc's heart ached for Aether as he caught site of the bleeding soles of his feet. However, he knew that you were going to take care of Aether so Diluc went to Gorou and Thoma who were now free as well. He helped them stand up, his hands staying near them to offer them support lest they fall back down.
"Diluc," you addressed him. "Take the two of them to their room's and get some maids to look over them." It was a bit unnerving hearing your monotone voice. There was no indication of how you felt. No anger, sadness, rage, nothing was present in your tone or body language. In some sense, it appears you've completely gone on autopilot.
Diluc nodded and put a hand on their backs and gently tried to usher them forward. He could tell both of them were hesitating, wanting to remain close to Aether who underwent the actual pain. Diluc tried to soothe them, "Y/n here now, she'll make sure he is taken care of."
Aether kept his head down even as the weight of the bar disappeared above him. He curled his toes and suppressed the flinch by biting down hard on his lip, his body twitching. The pain on his feet was settling into his body now that the adrenaline was wearing off. It was becoming more excruciating and traveling up his body, causing him to tremble.
With Diluc escorting the other two out of the room, the only ones who were left in the silent room were you, Aether, and his servant.
"I am going to bring him to my room," you addressed the servant. "Go and fetch water and the healing ointment. I'll meet you there."
"Right away, your highness." The servant bowed and hurriedly ran outside the door and down the hall.
One of your arms went underneath his back and the other went beneath his knees. You shifted him into you arms, ensuring you had a good grip on his trembling frame. With him in your arms, you stood up, careful not to jostle him too much.
Aether did not want you to see this and every part of him wanted to pull away and ensure you that he was okay but he knew that would be a lie - there was also apart of him that just wanted you to comfort him. Instead he wrapped his arms around your shoulders and kept his head tucked underneath your chin. The softness of your clothing and the gentleness of your touch soothed him in unexplainable ways.
You could feel the sweat coating his back through his clothing but luckily his trembling had calmed down. He still shook in your arms but it was marginally less than when you first hoisted him in your arms.
When you entered your room, he was placed on the bed with such gentleness that the tears he was trying so hard to stop from falling burned beneath his closed eyelids. It wasn't much longer before his servant burst through the door. "Apologies for bursting in, your highness," he huffed out, indication that he has been running around. "But I brought the stuff."
"Set it down here," you motioned your hand to the floor next to you as you kneeled in front of Aether. The servant put it down on the floor and bowed once more. "You may leave now." It was obvious that the servant was hesitant, his eyes filtering back to Aether on the bed.
"Of - of course, I'll prepare some food and leave it by the door."
With the servant exiting the room, you got to work. Dipping the cloth into the warmed water you wrung it out and as gently as you could wiped away the blood from his soles. Aether flinched at the first contact and was expecting there to be more pain but all he felt was a slight pressure. It was uncomfortable at most but not painful. His eyes opened and saw a soft glowing around your hands.
Using your own magic, you focused on numbing his pain. You wouldn't be able to heal it, not completely, but you could minimize the amount of pain he felt. With delicate hands, you dabbed off the remaining blood and then using a soft cloth, you wrapped up his foot and moved onto the next one doing the same thing.
You caressed one finger over the top of his bandaged foot before pulling away.
Dumping the dirty cloth back into the bin you let out a sigh. Aether winced, unsure of what to say. He wanted to apologize, but he wasn't sorry for what he did; it was better he be punished than the others. Due to his higher position, they couldn't actually hurt him and not get away with it. Compared to if they punished Gorou and Thoma, they could get away with much more. Regardless, he trusted that you would deal with them the way you deem fit.
"Better?" You broke the silence.
Biting down on his lip, he nodded. "Thank you." He hushed out.
You hummed. "You'll still feel numb so you shouldn't try and walk around, you'll just end up falling anyways."
Another nod. You sucked air through your teeth.
"Listen, what you did..." in an action that was unlike you, you hesitate. Wanting to address what had happened, but not wanting to hurt Aether's feelings, not after what he has just been through.
"I know." He angled his head down.
"Know what?"
"That what I did was reckless. That I should have sent someone to find you sooner," He interlocked his fingers, looking down at them so that he didn't have to look at you as he admitted his wrongdoings. "But all I could think of was what would happen to the others, their position can only protect them from so much."
"That's very commendable of you. But leave the protecting to me..." not wanting to scold him right now you let out a sigh. "Next time just promise me you'll look out for yourself."
Aether hesitated. He wanted to promise you, wanted to reassure you that he would but then he thinks of the others in the harem. Even with some of the tension and arguments, he truly values them and sees them as his own family; its only natural that he would protect his family.
"I - i," you watched as his jaw clenched. He couldn't even force himself to lie, not even to appease you. "I'm sorry." Tears were once again building in his eyes because he couldn't give you what you wanted. He was disappointing you, that that alone was causing his chest to hurt and for a sob to bubble it away past his throat.
"It's okay," You rested a hand on his thigh, sensing the panic building up inside of him. You shushed him as you wiped away the tears that fell. "It's alright, sweetheart, shh, it's okay."
You moved to sit next to him on the bed and he fell into your side, his head moving to rest on the crevice between your shoulder and neck. Your hand went to his neck, caressing the skin there. As he got more relaxed, you maneuvered him. Clutching underneath his knee, you pulled him so that his body was resting on your lap. His arms looped around your neck, pulling himself closer to you.
You let him remain there until he fell asleep which luckily didn't take long. Afterall, you still had some things to take care of.
Extra scene:
The attendant tugged at the chains wrapped around them. She winced at the soreness she felt, remembering the rough handling of the male guard. Rage bubbled up in her stomach.
A light cut through the darkness of the room, blinding her for a split second as she squinted to adjust to the change in light. The door let out a loud whine as it was forced further open, enveloping the room in more light.
She was expecting another guard to check up on her like they have been doing every fifteen minutes. She couldn't lie, there was pride in the fact that they worried enough about her doing anything that they had to have constant check-ins. As she was preparing a reply to the guard, her pridefulness quickly turn to fear.
Instead of some unimportant guard, in walked you. The air chilled around her, her body unknowingly locking up as you closed the door behind you, leaving only you and her in the small cell.
"Y'know, usually I leave this responsibility to others," You ran your fingers over a table in the corner of the room. "Getting my hand dirty in something that not an actual fight is just a waste of time. Not to mention the clean up," you groan, throwing your head back.
Making eye contact with the prisoner, you bared your teeth. "But I'm not going to lie, I might enjoy this."
You didn't have any weapon on you, you didn't need one, nor did you need any help on ensuring that she would suffer. Afterall, those who hurt those who belong to you deserve to feel the same pain tenfold.
The screams that filled the room were music to your ears.
--
When you walked out of the room, Zhongli was the only one still there. You knew there were others waiting outside earlier too but they must've left after the screams got to much. Zhongli looked you over, his eyes lingering on the blood splatter on your clothes and face. There was no abhorrence or disgust in his gaze, just neutral understanding.
He took out a handkerchief and brought it to you cheek. You let him wipe away the blood that was smeared on your face.
"Feel better?"
The edge of your lip lifted. "Honestly, not really. She should've suffered more." For someone who was such a big talker, she sure died quickly.
Zhongli let out a hum. "I would have liked to have had a chance with her." His own lingering anger seeping out through his voice.
A sound akin to a laugh left you. "You could've just joined me." You wouldn't have thrown him out - anyone else sure, but not him.
"I think you needed this more than me."
Well you couldn't deny that.

Hello there, are you still writing for consort au?
If you do, i want ask between the harem who have child first?
Hello :) I won't lie I did enjoy thinking about this. Thank you for this!
Some warnings: pregnancy, misogyny, abortions (doesn't happen but reader's council members suggest it), manipulation (not from reader or harem members).
I would say that it would most likely be any of the higher ranked consorts. Hypothetically, for me, I would say that the best bet is for Diluc, who is the Imperial consort to have children first. Once the reader and their lands are at peace, the reader's council is very adamant on her having children to secure her line. The council focuses heavily on Diluc, Ayato, and the other Noble consort (this position is still being determined). Afterall, its important for the first born to be female and from one of the high ranked harem members.
For me, because I love a little drama, I want to say Aether has the first child due to an alcohol-fueled night. This is no doubt a little scandalous because he's not the Imperial nor one of the Noble consorts. However, its much better than one of the concubines having the first child of the reader.
Unfortunately, there are still officials and advisors who are heavily against this and try and convince the reader to get rid of the child before its born. When this doesn't work, they try to pressure Aether behind the readers back which causes a lot of stress for him. However, I imagine that Aether ends up having a boy first so all the tensions calms down since it's not a girl and will not end up inheriting the throne.
For the actual heir of the throne I do imagine it being Diluc's daughter who is born a few years after Aether's boy.
