Chapter 162
NSFW: child sexual abuse account
The next day Solomon was off early in the morning to help Valkyrie with his secret task and all Valkyrie needed to do was keep any of her family from accidently letting slip what was happening. It shouldn't have been too hard. They were adults, soldiers, feared around the world.
Valkyrie didn't think it would be so easy.
"Come on, we can go to the movies," Valkyrie encouraged.
"But I want to sleep all day," Nadia whined. She was snuggled into bed and Valkyrie was already ready. In this house, they got to have their own room although it was tiny and the walls were made of paper. "Go watch a movie downstairs."
"I don't want to do that, I want to go outside with you," she tried.
"Mmm I don't want to though."
"What if I don't give you a choice?"
"I'll call CPS on you," Nadia smirked into her pillow.
"You're not a child."
"I am for another week."
"It's actually just four days," Valkyrie told her. "Have you even had your advent chocolate today?"
"No. Can you bring it to me?"
Valkyrie sighed and brought over the little one dollar calendar they'd bought. Nadia's reached out of the covers only to get the chocolate, stick it in her mouth and then grin and cover back up. "Ah, come on baby. We need to do something."
"You can do me," Nadia grinned.
"Tempting, but these walls aren't really designed for that," Valkyrie said, getting onto the bed. "Any other ideas?"
"Give me your chocolate?"
"I already ate it."
Nadia tutted. "What's the point in dating if I can't even steal your chocolate? I don't want to date you anymore."
"You don't have to," Valkyrie said. "Do you want me to tell your parents you've changed your mind or would you like to do it?"
Nadia cringed. "Yeah, no thanks. I think I'll just suffer."
"Suffer? You don't suffer!" Valkyrie laughed and then kissed her. Her lips tasted like chocolate.
"Yes I do! You left me all of yesterday and now you want me to go outside after eating my chocolate!"
"Your chocolate?" Valkyrie scoffed. "Keep that up and you really will have to call CPS. Bitch."
Nadia burst out laughing. "No, you're the bitch."
"That's it!" Valkyrie said and jumped onto Nadia, making her squeal loudly and pulled up her and the covers.
"Put me down!" Nadia shrieked.
"No! This is your own fault!" Valkyrie shouted. She let Nadia drop from maybe five inches in the air and Nadia screamed like she'd been killed, and then Valkyrie ripped the covers away.
"No, it's cold Val, don't do that!" She shouted.
Valkyrie didn't say anything, she just knelt and sat, half propped up because she was far too heavy to fully sit, on Nadia's hips. She pulled up Nadia's top and began tickling her.
"Wh- no! Oh my god!" She began laughing, her legs kicking out behind her. "No don't tickle me! Val!"
Valkyrie laughed and kept tickling her. "You deserve this!"
"You're–" she shrieked mid-laugh "–such a fucking bitch!" Valkyrie leaned down and blew a raspberry into her neck and Nadia laughed so much she wasn't even making a sound.
"Are you done being bad?" Valkyrie asked her in a quieter voice, sitting back.
Nadia took a moment to calm down, look at her and then shook her head.
This time Valkyrie grabbed both of her hands and pulled them behind her head. "Are you sure?"
Nadia didn't stop grinning. "Fuck you."
Holding Nadia's arms up with just one hand, Valkyrie mercilessly tickled her waist and stomach, keeping clear of her piercing, and up her sides and tickled her underarms and her neck. Nadia was crying from laugher and barely got any sounds out between the tickles. Her little pyjama top road all the way up over her breasts and it was only inevitable that Valkyrie got distracted. It really wasn't her fault. She tried to stay focused on tickling but then she was suddenly sucking on her nipple.
Nadia's laughs turned quickly into moans. Valkyrie's fingers went from tickling to trailing quickly down Nadia's body and into her pyjama bottoms. She let go of Nadia's arms but she didn't move them from above her head. Nadia raised her hips and Valkyrie pulled the trousers off of her.
"Can you be quiet?" Valkyrie asked, a grin on her face. She glanced at the door. It didn't have a lock but she was pretty sure on one was upstairs. The third floor above them had some people though, she'd heard their footsteps. "If you make a noise I'll stop."
Nadia had a glint in her eye, grinned and lay her head back down flat. Trying not to giggle herself, she pulled Nadia's trousers off all the way, threw them on the floor and shuffled down the bed. She took her time winding Nadia up but hardly went slow. She did the bare minimum to get Nadia wet, which wasn't hard, kissing her legs and licking gently on her clit, and then she became more aggressive in her ministrations. She sucked, licked and played with her clit and as soon as she could, Valkyrie pushed two fingers inside of her. Nadia sucked in a breath and raised her hips into Valkyrie's mouth but she didn't make a sound except for her heavy breathing.
Valkyrie paused for just a moment to look up and then started flicking her fingers, grinning evilly and stopping, fingers still inside, when Nadia made a small sound. It would have been a much louder sound usually.
"No, no, no baby, don't stop," she whispered.
"But you made a sound," Valkyrie teased meanly, pulling herself up to Nadia's head, not moving her hand. She brushed her thumb over Nadia's clit and she sucked in a breath. "That was bad."
"I wasn't," she said, but Valkyrie didn't really want to play like that right now, so she just kissed Nadia on the mouth and flicked her fingers again.
Apparently her pause in the action wasn't good enough, or maybe this had been planned. Nadia pushed Valkyrie and she went onto her back, a little confused and thinking she had overstimulated Nadia, so she stopped touching her. She realised that wasn't the case when Nadia got onto her knees.
Trying not to grin and hyperventilate from a very sudden and unexpected amount of excitement, Valkyrie helped Nadia to position herself over her own head. It was not like how she expected it to be, yet it was still good. She was lucky to be strong because the more they got into it, the more Nadia rubbed her hips against her mouth and she had to keep Nadia above her by holding her up. Still, she worked on Nadia until her girlfriend's legs were shaking, her back was arched and she was grinding her teeth trying not to shout. She came not long into it and Valkyrie let her ride it out, licking her pussy as best she could when Nadia kept trying to grind against her face, all while pressing her own legs together and occasionally lifted her hips out of her own horniness.
Nadia fell off her face and onto the bed. Valkyrie pushed herself up slowly, a bit dazed, messy and very happy to get some proper breaths in. Nadia was still panting on the bed when Valkyrie threw the packet of cold baby wipes on her bare belly.
She yelped and threw them off. "Valkyrie!"
"Sorry," Valkyrie smirked, wiping her face and hands clean. Nadia tried to glare but was too happy and just ended up rolling her eyes and taking one of the wipes to clean herself. "That was unexpected."
Nadia just giggled. "It was good though. It might be the best thing you've ever done to me."
"I think you might have done that to me," Valkyrie pointed out slowly. No that she didn't minded. "Now that I've done what you wanted, can we please do something?"
"I'll think about it," Nadia said as she sat cross-legged in the bed, just her top on. "I thought about it. I just want to stay in here."
"We don't have any food or a bathroom."
"We have a bucket and a phone, we'll order," Nadia said.
"What, order food from my family? Yeah, I'm sure that would go down great," Valkyrie said. She got the covers and folded them at the bottom of the bed out of the way. "If we are going to stay in here, what are we doing?"
"I don't know," Nadia shrugged. "Talking and fucking I guess."
Valkyrie rolled her eyes. "Fucking? Is that what we're calling sex now?"
"Yes, it is. That was too short to count as anything else."
"I think it's more of a one-sided oral session honestly," Valkyrie said snidely.
"I'm happy to return the favour. After I get my chocolate."
"For god's sake," Valkyrie sighed, sitting on the bed too. "Just shush about the chocolate. We'll just have to talk like we like each other. Tell me a secret."
She hummed and thought about it. "How big of a secret?"
"I don't mind. Something funny."
Nadia smiled at her. "You know we have two guest rooms in our apartment? Or, you know, rooms at home?"
"Yeah?" Valkyrie said slowly.
"One of them is going to be a cat room. Me and my friends found a designer and they've designed the whole thing already and send it to the architect. The window has a cat-flap and a little wooden cage so the cats can sit outside and look around."
"Oh my god," Valkyrie muttered. "You know, it's okay. You can have the room. Because in the rest of the entire house I'm going to have a dog and it'll be way happier than the cat because it'll have the whole house."
Nadia snorted, knowing she had won the battle. It was too late anyway; Nadia had already organised it. That didn't mean Valkyrie had to let her get the cat. "You tell me a secret."
"I don't have any funny secrets," Valkyrie said.
Nadia sobered and bit her lip. "Can I ask you something serious? You don't have to talk about it if you don't want to."
"I suppose so."
"Can you tell me about that man? Mr Hagan?" She asked quietly. Valkyrie took a deep breath. "I know it's bad and I know what the Sanctuary found when they looked into him so I kind of have an idea of what you'll say. I just thought it would be good to talk about it."
"I know. I promised I would," Valkyrie muttered, picking some balls of fluff off her socks and tossing the dirty baby wipes towards the bin. "It's not very nice though."
"It's okay if you don't want to say. I get that right now might not be the time."
"It's alright. I mean, it's not as bad as you're probably thinking," Valkyrie said, feeling a bit defensive. "You know I grew up nearby and stuff, and I would go out and play with friends. Well, Haggard is such a small place that my mum and all the other parents would let us go out from a young age to play. My street is really close to the beach and I loved going there to play so I always got to go and after playing there me and my friends would go to the shopping area not far away and get ice creams or drinks. Sometimes we'd play games like hide and seek or tag or stuck-in-the-mud over the whole town and all the kids would get involved so there were almost forty of us including the big kids.
"Well, honestly, I felt off about him before anything happened. We, that being me and my mum, would go in to get flowers for my grandparents or my sick aunt. My mum's side of the family really likes flowers. Anyway, after we bought things he'd always ask if I want a sweetie and my mum would always think I was shy of him and make me take it. She didn't know that I thought he was weird. I never told her or Gordon or anyone any of this. Well, when I was maybe five or six I was playing hide and seek with my friends. I tried to hide in the flower shop. I don't know why, I thought he was creepy but everyone liked him and I didn't even think he'd do anything to me. Nothing had ever happened to me, I mean, I was little, no one had explained how men could abuse little girls. Well, he took me by the arm and told me that he'd help me stay hidden. I didn't want to go, but he pulled me into the back of the room and took off his trousers."
"Oh no," Nadia whispered. Her eyes were wide and sorry.
"It's okay. I didn't do anything he told me too but I was really scared. One of the older kids came in the shop to look for me and he pulled them up quickly and I ran back to the front and the kid said he found me and I had to go help find the others. But I was really shaken and wanted to go home, so I did. I just walked into the house went to my bedroom. My mum called me for dinner later and I never said a thing. I didn't think about it for a long time."
"Why didn't you tell anyone?"
"I don't know. I didn't even think about telling anyone, I just thought I had to keep to it secret so I did. My Hagan never even said I had to, so I don't know why I thought that," Valkyrie explained, thinking back. "I just knew it was wrong and that I didn't like it, so I tried not to think about it at all. Any other time something bad happened like I broke something, I hid it. I guess my little brain thought that was best."
"What did he try to make you do?"
"He wanted me to touch him I think. Honestly, I don't remember much of being there other than saying I didn't want to and then being too scared to say anything else, but I didn't do it. A while later, I don't remember how long, we went back to the shop and I remembered being really scared of him and refusing to go in and my mum told me off for being rude to Mr Hagan so she made me apologise to him for being naughty. I remember I was so mad at her and I didn't eat my dinner and she sent me to bed early. I was furious and couldn't understand why she didn't feel like I did, even though I didn't want to tell her what happened, and I don't know if I ever said that he was weird even after what he did. After a while I gave in and started just going to the shop and being good for her, though, because I didn't like being in trouble and I didn't really understand. I think I thought I actually must have done something wrong and I wasn't remembering what happened correctly. I don't think that now but I was only six then, so…"
"Did it happen again?" Nada asked.
"Yes, but not the same way. He found me on the beach once but I ran away. He once caught me in the street when I was seven or eight and tried to take me to his house and I remember being really scared but some people came around the corner in their car so he had to let me go and he told them that I had kicked his dog and that was why he was telling me off and grabbing my arm. They believed him and had their daughter walk me home. I remember she didn't say anything to me all the way there and I was really embarrassed about what he said I did. She didn't tell my mum Mr Hagan's story, just that I got lost so she brought me home."
"Oh no," Nadia said. "She must have been hurt by him too."
Valkyrie thought about it. "It would make sense. I mean, he's really well-liked by everyone, no one thinks he's bad. But it makes sense that someone else would be hurt by him too. I just never like to think about it. He tried a few other times. It was right before my mother died, when I was nine, that he got me alone in his shop again. You know there's that hatch that goes into the basement?"
"Kind of, yeah."
"I don't remember how I got there or what happened, but I remember thinking that I had to get home and I was really scared like the time he tried to take me to his house. He opened the hatch and there are these really old stairs. He made me go down them and I tried to run and I think I knocked over a stand of flowers, and he grabbed me and pushed me down to the basement." Valkyrie felt her chest tightening and she started pinching the skin on her hands. "He exposed himself again. And this time he made me touch him. He said if I did it then he'd let me go. I don't know how long I was there. I never, you know, finished though because I threw up and he got mad. He hit me and said he'd tell my mum that I was bad and that my father would be disappointed. He told me he was trying to be a father to me and that this is what fathers and kids did and that I was really messed up for not knowing this. And I remember, I vividly remember, telling him that it's not true because Gordon is like my father and if that's what fathers and kids did, we would already do it. It was just all really, really messed up. But I still didn't really understand what he was doing. He hit me again and kicked me, on my arms and legs. I don't really remember what happened next, just that I got home and I was crying to my mum and I got really hysterical and she called Gordon to help and he came over. They calmed me down but I couldn't tell them what happened. I remember being on the sofa in the living room and them both kneeling in front of me asking what happened. But I was scared I'd be in trouble for not saying things before and I was embarrassed because I didn't want to say I touched his penis, so I didn't say. It was only a few weeks before my mum died in a car crash. Then I moved to Gordon's and I didn't see him again until we visited Haggard together."
Nadia picked up her hands and held them in her own, stopping her from pinching. "I'm really sorry that happened."
"It's okay, it's not your fault. I just don't like to think about it. It makes me sick," she said, feeling tears welling up. She didn't want to cry. "I think Mum and Gordon must have through someone hurt me because Mum noticed all my bruises and asked me, but I just told her that I fell over at the beach. They didn't really ask many questions and I guess no one wanted to bring it up after my mum died because they just wanted me to be happy."
"They should have asked more," Nadia said strongly. "They should have put him in prison."
"I probably wouldn't have said it happened even if they asked if Mr Hagan had done it," Valkyrie told her quietly. "I didn't want to think about it. I haven't thought about it in years."
"I'm glad he's dead," Nadia said venomously. "He deserved a lot more than having his shop burnt down. I'm glad he was killed too."
Valkyrie didn't say anything. She didn't know how to feel about his death. So she pulled Nadia close to hold.
"Do you hate him?" Nadia asked when she was settled in Valkyrie's arms like a baby.
"I don't know," Valkyrie said quietly. The feelings were making her numb. She didn't like talking about this.
"You don't have to hate him," Nadia said. "I hate him for what he did to you. But you don't need to if you don't want to."
"I know," she whispered, tightening her grip on Nadia, who was still naked from the waist down. Neither of them cared. "I don't like thinking about him."
"How do you feel about it now?"
Valkyrie tried to think of what it was like, of how she felt about any of it. "I don't know. Just… overwhelmed I guess. It still scares me."
Nadia turned and held Valkyrie so they were hugging. Valkyrie held her close. "He'll never hurt you again. Ever."
"I know. But– it's not the point that he's dead. I'm just scared and upset anyway," she whispered, tears dripping from her face and onto Nadia's shoulder. "I've kept it in for so long. I don't want to think about it."
"It's good for you though baby," she said, kissing her cheek. "You don't have to, but it's good to get it out. I'm here for you. I want to help."
"I know," Valkyrie sniffed. Nadia wiped her eyes. "I just don't want to talk about it anymore right now."
"Okay, okay, we won't," Nadia said comfortingly. She smiled and Valkyrie smiled back a bit more shakily. "What to go to the movies?"
She shook her head, the smile dropping. "No. I want to stay here."
Nadia stroked her hair. "That's okay. We'll stay here. Thank you for talking to me."
"'S okay," Valkyrie said, holding Nadia close.
I think I covered two polar opposite NSFW's there. What a great thing to follow the last chapter! Plus some follow up was needed on Hagan, as much as I despise him.
Lord Duck the Second: I'm glad you did! This has slightly different vibes though, so sorry about that. Everyone probably expected something cutesy, but no.
