This one is for an old request that I had sitting around, as well as for MarVex day. I finally got something up for one of the days and I'm happy about that. I know it's short but at least I'm finally writing something.
Built In A Day
Vexen's eyes bugged out and his lips formed a thin line. Everyone in the room knew he was seconds away from spilling his innermost feelings about the current topic, but Marluxia held up a hand to preemptively stop his tirade. It seemed he didn't need the opinion of his subjects on the matter, or he just didn't care for them in the first place. Despite this, Vexen had to put in his two cents anyway.
"I don't think you can just declare yourself a king just like that, Eleven!" He snapped, leaving the pink-haired male quirking a perfectly manicured brow at him.
"Oh? But aren't I, though?" He asked, chuckling a little behind his hand as he leaned back, shaking his hair out behind him and looking up his nose at Vexen. Those poisonous green eyes narrowed further and Vexen pointed at him as if to make his words carry more weight.
"How dare you! You're still only number Eleven in the Organization, and I will not-"
"You have no choice, darling," The word dripped venom as Marluxia stepped closer, running a hand along Vexen's pointed chin, "I am lord of Castle Oblivion, and there is nothing you nor your little friends can do but bow to my every whim." It wasn't like the promotion was going to his head or anything.
"I will not bow to your tyranny-" Vexen stopped short when Marluxia kissed the corner of his lips, and he could hear Axel and Larxene giggling over it like hyenas behind them. Lexaeus shifted slightly, and Zexion pointedly looked away. Manipulation, that was this kiss' goal, but it seemed that he'd succeeded in shutting the elder man up.
"You will." Marluxia cooed, feline grace in his movements as he turned and walked away, "In due time, you will get used to being beneath me."
A Corridor of Darkness opened in front of him and he took it, leaving Vexen sputtering behind him. Oh, it was good to be King.
AN: Another short piece but I finished something and made it in time for MarVex day, too! I'm so proud of myself I could just cry. I hope you guys enjoyed it!
Prompt: "I don't think you can just declare yourself a king just like that.."
