Deal with a Demon

Cardin was a bully. He knew that. He made sure everyone knew that. It was just what happened when you were an alpha male. The weak sneered and called him pathetic but who gave a shit what they thought? When he wanted something he took it. If someone fought for it he'd put them down without mercy. That was the privilege of the strong.
Which is why Jaune saving his ass from a Grimm chafed him so much. Jaune was weak. If you looked up the definition of herbivore Jaune's picture would be right beside it. He was a beta male through and through. Or at least, he was supposed to be.
Cardin wasn't too proud to admit that Jaune may very well have been strong all along but was too much of a pussy to use that strength. Whatever the case it was clear that Jaune wouldn't allow Cardin to push him around anymore. The blackmail was no longer effective and ratting him out to the professors would be a hollow victory. He could probably throw him around a little but the stubborn shit would probably refuse to bend now. It would ultimately be more trouble than it was worth.
The redhead couldn't just let it be though. He had to get something out of this clusterfuck. He thought long and hard how else he could use this blackmail to benefit him. Well, not really, because there was one other person who would be absolutely devastated if her beloved partner was taken from her.
Indigo eyes focused on his target. Pyrrha Nikos, the Invincible Girl. Four-time tournament champion and Grade-A babe. He knew her and Jaune practiced nightly on this rooftop. So it was only a matter of waiting for a night when Jaune left first. He pulled himself up from his window and onto the roof with little effort. It was the result of constant physical maintenance which was on display. He made sure to only dress in shorts and a tanktop for this encounter. The champion noticed immediately and her gaze darkened into a contemptuous glare.
"What do you want, Cardin?" she bit out.
Cardin's mouth twitched into the beginning of a sneer. "Just here to talk, Nikos."
"You seem to have confused me for someone who cares to hear anything you might have to say," Pyrrha responded before turning around to walk towards the door.
'This bitch,' he thought to himself before snarling back, "If you want your little boytoy to keep playing Huntsman then you're gonna want to hear me out!"
The girl froze and the atmosphere suddenly ratcheted up in intensity. She slowly turned her head to look over her shoulder with an absolutely lethal glare.
"What?" she nearly hissed.
Cardin wasn't deterred though. He knew he had her attention now; and she would shut up and listen to him now that he had threatened her partner. Cardin wasn't oblivious to how she looked at Jaune. Everyone could see it except for her limp dick partner. If she looked at Cardin like that he would have her on her knees and stuff her mouth in an instant.
However she was also a stuck-up bitch who thought she was too good for everyone who didn't worship the ground she walked on. The way Cardin figured it, though, she could be a little more amenable to him with the right...charm.
"Look, Nikos, I know that you don't like me, but I know you like Jauney-boy more than you hate me."
A light shade of pink overcame her countenance and she clearly struggled to keep up her threatening facade. How cute. The fierce champion was such a girly-girl under that armor. His eyes wandered down her form. Perhaps "womanly" would be more appropriate.
The boy continued, "So I'm sure if anything were to get and make him have to leave then you'd be a little upset."
Pyrrha spun around to face him completely, "This again? I thought Jaune had put you in your place."
Cardin snarled again but with a great effort he kept himself focused. "Oh, I already agreed not to mess with needle dick and his friends. But I'm not here to mess around."
He began to walk towards her, slow enough to not trigger a violent response. "You see, Jauney-boy may not be afraid of getting ratted out anymore but I'm sure you are. One word from me and he'll be out of your life forever."
The hard glare Pyrrha wore slowly melted away into visible concern. A smirk slid into place across Cardin's face.
'Hook.'
He continued to close in on the smaller girl and it was clear she was too scared to move. "Now I don't want to have to deprive the world of such promising Huntsman. So maybe you and I could work out a deal."
Pyrrha was silent for a moment before asking in a much quieter tone, "...a deal?"
'Line.'
The bulky young man nodded easily. "Yeah, a deal. You take care of me and I take care to keep Jauney's little secret."
Her smooth, olive-toned shoulders tensed up. "What do you mean...'take care of you'?" she asked in a careful tone that implied she already knew what he was getting at.
Cardin halted directly in front of her, less than a foot apart. The champion was staring up at him with wary eyes. His voice became leading as he answered. "Nothing crazy, Pyrrha. You just come to my room every so often and help...massage the tension out of me."
Pyrrha's eyes widened but she didn't step back. She opened her mouth to respond but he reached up to gently grasp her chin before she could say anything.
"If you don't want to, that's fine. But you might find Jaune packing his bags soon."
He could see a thousand emotions running through her eyes. She was so close to the edge. He just needed to give her a little push.
"It doesn't have to be a bad thing, Pyrrha," he said huskily. "It'll just be some fun between two people. I promise you'll enjoy it."
She seemed to wrestle with herself for an eternity before she finally answered in a breathy voice.
"I underestimated you..."
'Sink-' "HURGH!"
Cardin crumpled to the ground with his hands cradling his family jewels.
"I truly underestimated how pathetic you are."
A gloved hand grabbed a fistful of short, burgundy hair and dragged him up onto his knees. Her fist slammed into his nose and rattled his brain.
"I am not some whore to be bartered with, you detestable cur!"
The hand released his hair and a booted foot swung around and cracked across his jaw, sending him to the ground before he could even think to react. He slapped a hand onto the ground to try and push himself up but instead yelped as the heel of Pyrrha's boot crushed it. Cardin grabbed her ankle with the intent to throw her off but was foiled when her other foot came up to kick him square in the face.
"You think I would give in so easily? If Jaune is no longer afraid of you, what makes you think I would be?"
Pyrrha let up off his hand and took a step back. Cardin took the opportunity to roll away and throw himself back up onto his feet in a defensive stance. He felt his heart drop when he saw her unhook her shield and sword from her back.
"Do you think you can defend yourself against me? Truly?" she said mockingly. The high-handed contempt in her voice was so unlike the usually polite girl that Cardin felt something akin to fear lance through his stomach.
"I laid your entire team low when you were armed and armored. Do you really wish to try against me in this circumstance?"
No. No he didn't. Cardin was prideful but he wasn't stupid. He slowly straightened out and took two steps back. "Fine, Nikos. You win. I'm outta here."
He turned around and began to walk away with as much dignity as he could. He barely took three steps before the sharp edge of Pyrrha's shield crashed painfully into his knees and made him crumple to the ground again. Pyrrha charged in to grab his hair from behind and jerked it back so he had to look up at her.
"I'm not finished! You came up here to make a deal so deal we shall. You will keep your weasley mouth sealed about Jaune and in return I will not go to the Headmaster about your attempt to blackmail me into having sex with you! Do we have an agreement?"
"You crazy bitch..." Cardin croaked past the pain that was slowly dissipating from his knees. They definitely would have shattered on impact if he didn't have Aura. He gritted his teeth and groaned when Pyrrha yanked at his hair.
"I didn't quite catch that," she said venomously.
"Yeah, we have a deal! Now get the hell off me!"
Pyrrha shoved his head forward and backed up. Cardin rushed back up onto his feet. He looked back at her warily for a moment, waiting to see if she could continue her assault. She had already turned around and was walking towards the door, tall and proud.
Anger bubbled in his chest, however it was tempered by the ass beating he had just received. That was that then. His blackmail was completely useless now. Pyrrha had him by the balls. If he provoked her, Jaune, or any of their merry band of douchebags he would be up shit creek without a paddle.
Cardin spat on the ground and turned to go back through his window. How could he have expected Miss Goody Two-Shoes would turn out to be such a demon.
A/N: Y'all freakass NTR writers really think a tournament champion would let someone she hates between her legs over some blackmail. Smdh.
