Author Note-Hello everyone and welcome to my fanfiction. Cassiopeia is one of my favorite Champions within League of legends and I feel like she doesn't get enough attention beside awesome one-shots so I figured why not. Just really going to be short stories about Cassiopeia and her boyfriend. Lore will be a little loose so don't hate me:3.
Chapter 1-Representation
Noxus. The birthplace of controlled chaos. A place full of strife and blood but low in trust. To live in this city-state is fight for your place among the living. Everyday someone dies and if they're not a high-ranking officer then chances are nobody cares. Death in this place was treated like an everyday occurrence.
Fortunately such was not the case-at least to an extent- for the house of the du couteau. Raised from the privileges of their father before he disappeared, the residents lived a lavish but by no means soft lives. One cursed with the ever growing tension of her position within the Noxian army while the other was literally cursed with the aspect of the snake, her condition deemed incurable unless the same dark magic was applied. The latter of the two woman along with the majority of their servants have deemed her a monstrosity (the servants silently of course).
All except for one man, in particularly one man who wields the power to tip the scales….
(Present Time)
"Any messages form Swain?"
Sitting in a particularly sizable study was a beautiful red haired woman, her hands clasped underneath her chin as a hot cup of tea was placed before her.
"No lady Katarina, but I did receive a message from Draven the master of-
"Spare me," Katarina sighed before taking a sip of her tea while taking note of the small plate placed before her. Her lips twitched into a smile for only a split of a second before returning to her cold and calculating look.
"I could have sworn I told you to stop serving me cheesecake."
The man smiled a faint smile before placing down a small fork beside the young lady and taking a step back.
"Forgive me milady. You have been working hard so I only thought you deserved a reward."
"I am not a child Valentine, I need not be rewarded for a day's work," she scoffed yet her hand betrayed her as she was cutting a piece of the dessert before her.
"I am well aware lady Katarina." The white haired butler shifted the silver plate into his left hand before reaching into his shirt and pulling out a white piece of paper.
"I really do believe that you should-
The man stopped mid-sentence and sighed loudly before turning towards the door. Not too long a series of soft knocks could be heard before the door was opened. In walked in a rather young looking maid.
"Excuse me lady du couteau," the maiden heaved through heavy breaths as she bowed respectfully low, awaiting her master to excuse her intrusion.
Katarina batted an eye towards her butler before excusing the woman.
"Thank you du couteau," she thanked with respect before finally telling the reason for why she had barged in.
"The mistress's sister request valentines' presences at once."
Katarina rolled her eyes as she sat back in her seat as she waved her hand dismissively towards Valentine.
Valentine, along with the maid left the red-haired woman alone to her thoughts as they exited her study, or rather her father's study.
After her servants had left the room Katarina turned towards the window and looked out toward her garden that her head servant, took the reasonability of tending on a regular basis.
"I wonder what her problem is this time." Katarina thought depressingly as she popped a piece of cheesecake in her cake.
(Hallway leading towards Cassiopeia's room)
Valentine sighed somewhat as he made his way down the hallway. As of late Cassiopeia had been requesting his presence, not that he minded.
It was a butler's job to look after his mistresses.
Valentine took off his white gloves before neatly stuffing them in his pocket, afterwards stopping right in front of his younger mistress's door. He took a deep breath before gently pushing the door open. He wasn't surprised to find Cassiopeia's room in slight disarray. Jewelry was sprawled around everywhere and the room wasn't exactly well lit either.
"Cassiopeia..." Valentine called out softly as he closed the door. It's not that he was scared of Cassiopeia it's just…
"sssssssurprisssssee!"
"Son of a-"was all Valentine murmured before he was tackled to the ground by none other than Cassiopeia. This wasn't a surprise in the least so to speak, as she would occasionally surprise the hell out of him.
The woman hugged the man tightly, not caring that the man was obviously flustered by her embrace. She coiled her tail around him so he couldn't escape before trailing one of her sharp talons down his chest gently. She giggled a little once she realized how flushed his face was at the obvious contact, her green eyes looking towards him with obvious mischief.
"So what brings you here Valle?" she purred playfully, obviously feigning ignorance.
"You know exactly why I'm here Cass," the man tried to answer seriously, but it came out nervously and hoarse due to his current situation.
"What? I can't spend time with my favorite butler after a hard dayssss of work?" she asked sweetly, still continuing to torture the man with the physical contact.
Valentine couldn't hold his composure anymore, a smile gracing his lips as he flipped their position with his sheer strength-which was no easy feat considering Cassiopeia was quite strong- and held Cassiopeia's hands above her head.
"Is this the only way I can get you to calm down? By restraining you?"
Her eyes twinkled with mischief as a grin formed on her lips, her fangs showing slightly as she spoke, "If you're trying to calm me down, it's having the opposite effect at the moment."
True to her word, her tail had started to stroke at his thigh suggestively for only a moment before the man blinked away from her in a puff of blue.
"I hate when you do that," Cassiopeia said sourly as she propped herself up on her elbow and turned towards her bed, not surprised to find her butler sitting on the bed patting the space next to him.
Cassiopeia huffed but ultimately submitted to the silent request, but with her own spin. She slithered up towards the bed and stretched out in his lap, her hand drawing circles in his chest.
Valentine was about to scold Cassiopeia, if not for the depressing look on her face.
"What's the matter Cassiopeia?" he asked softly, stroking her gorgeous brown hair in comfort as he waited for an answer.
The cursed woman didn't answer for a moment, but when she did her voice came out soft, almost as if she afraid was to talk.
"Could…you…," she bit her lip nervously, a small blush adoring her face.
"Could I what?" the man asked curiously, "if it's about that I don't see why you're-"
"Not that, it's something else," she snapped quickly before retreating back into her previous state of nervousness.
"Just spit it out Cass, I'm right here," he whispered softly before kissing her forehead lovingly.
She sighed before finally spitting out what she was trying to ask.
"Come with me to the institute of war?" she blurted heatedly, a look of sheer determination and passion on her face.
"Cass I don't know..."
"Come on Valle it'll be fun," she beckoned sweetly, trailing a talon down his cheek gently. "You, me, living together in the same room…" she trailed before sporting a wide grin and adding," think how much fun we'll have."
The man gulped audibly loud as he was trying to imagine living together in the same room as Cass on a daily basis. As much pros there would be to living with Cassiopeia, there would also be negatives such as…
Such as...
Surprisingly, he couldn't identify hardly any major negatives with staying with Cassiopeia.
"I'm not saying it wouldn't be nice spending time with you," he said, electing a hopeful smile from her before adding, "but what about my duties as a butler?"
"Don't give that crap Valentine!" Cassiopeia pouted before stretching up to him at eye level, if a little bit higher. "Don't make me beg Valle," she asked honestly, in the sense that there was no playfulness or flirtation in her tone. She genuinely wanted Valentine to come with her.
"You really want me to come that badly?"
She nodded cutely before pecking him lightly on the lips.
"Please, for me?"
The man contemplated for only a second before sighing though there was a smile on his face as he finally answered his girlfriend.
"Anything for you Cass."
And that marks the first chapter. Hope you guys liked and can't wait to see you all in the next chapter T.T.
