In A Sleepy Town [Headless Horseman X Reader][pt.5]
In a Sleepy Town [Headless Horseman x Reader][pt.5]
Story Summary: “The horseman who rides atop his alabaster steed, cloaked in crimson without a head.”
In the sleepy town of Moorwick, you are drawn into the legend of horseman when you learn it is associated with your father’s disappearance twenty years ago. When the local ghost story turns to be anything but that, and a bargain goes awry, you delve into Moorwick’s dark history with hopes of saving more than just yourself.
—-
Chapter Five: You could no longer refute that your relationship with the horseman was more complex than you initially thought it to be. What did it mean? Just as you’re coming to terms with this, Colson offers a gift that could change everything. And Moorwick’s more prestigious residents let you know that there are eyes always watching.

The early December air was an unabashed presence to you that night. It slithered beneath the many layers you could muster while still being able to move, setting the hair on the back of your neck tall like spines, numbed the tips of your ears, and cemented your fingers wound the horse’s stiff reins. The seat beneath you felt harder than usual, nothing short of being jostled around on a big stone as you attempted to ride through the horse’s rough gait. Perhaps more than anything, it felt rather amiss to be astride in the saddle without the horseman there to keep you upright. You were used to the steadiness of his chest to catch you, and his arms anchoring you down into the seat. Without him, the wind prowled excitedly, pushing against your back with a bite that you felt cut through your skin and bone, and launch you atop of the horse’s neck more than once. “It is way too cold to do this tonight, let me off,” you complained over the whistle and wail of the breeze, and the muffs tightly cradling your ears. The horse continued to trot in the same wide circle obediently, showing little regard to your commands despite your grip on the reins. From the middle of the circle, you clenched an eye against a glare of white that only just illuminated the horseman’s chest in a halo of light. It had been at his insistence that you were even doing this, or more accurately: he had dismounted, gave his steed a swift smack on the ass and sent it surging forward into the circle before you could have hopped off.

nsfw under the cut

He’d been following you for quite some time now.
He watched you survive day by day, laying waste to zombies with your machete, trying your hardest to keep surviving. You’d spotted his corpse trailing behind you once, and your biggest mistake was not ending his existence then and there. You didn’t know it, but the zombies were starting to change; they were starting to feel things again. And this particular zombie was hungry for something other than your flesh.

It had only been a few weeks since your last visit to the university but it felt longer as you walked onto campus. Just as planned, you were due to meet Bucky in his office. He texted you as you rode the subway. He was eager to start his ‘marking’. You smirked and wondered how long he’d last at that.

You drummed your fingernails on the table, biting inside your cheek. Your stomach was making flips as you tried to ignore the nervousness nagging at you and shuffled through your sketches to distract yourself. A specific sketch caught your eye but you turned it over as soon as it did.
So what if you had drawn Geralt, without him knowing?
It’s not like he would ever see it, nor did it mean anything.
You looked up when Cassie knocked on the door, then peeked her head in.
“Your highness, Sir Leander is here as you requested.”
“Send him in please.” You said as you put your gloves on, then straightened your back, your eyes narrowing as soon as Sir Leander stepped inside. He curtsied,
“Your highness.”
“Sir Leander.” You nodded at him, “Take a seat.”
He looked almost nervous for a moment, and you tilted your head, eyeing him up and down. He did look quite handsome, with striking green eyes and wavy hair framing his face, there was no wonder why Fin was quite taken by him.
“I’m glad to see you well,” he said, “I’ve heard you preferred the solitude of your chambers and were feeling unwell.”
“I feel much better, thank you,” you said, “Were you….at the hall when the incident occurred? I don’t remember if I saw you.”
“I was there, your highness.”
“Oh good,” you took a sip of your tea, “So you had the chance to see personally what this curse entails.”
“I did.”
“Great,” you smiled at him, and slowly pulled your gloves off your hands. He sat up straighter, swallowing thickly.
“Your highness, what-?”
“Do you know the punishment for harming the crown prince, Sir Leander?”
He eyed your gloves lying on the table, “No?”
“Exile,” you said, “Or death. Depends on the crime, really. People should really be more careful these days. I hear your family has a state at the skirts of the city, close to the countryside, is that correct?”
“We have been blessed with wealth, yes.”
“Very well.” You said, “Once the confinement is over, perhaps you would like to go there for a while…..a year or so. At least until the dust settles around here.”
He gritted his teeth, “Or what?”
You drummed your fingernails on the table, drawing his attention to your hands for a moment before you shrugged,
“Court is a very dangerous place these days,” you said, “Accidents happen, a lot.”
He blinked a couple of times, then leaned in, glaring daggers at you, “Are you threatening me, your highness?”
You smiled at him calmly, almost like a snake, then shook your head,
“Consider it as a suggestion,” you told him, and leaned in, “You’ve already seen what I would do to protect one of my brothers, Sir Leander. Would you like to see what I would do to protect the other one as well?”

The walk-up was just as refined as its resident. Loki’s arm was around your waist as he led you up the steps of the upscale townhouse. It wasn’t as endearing as Steve’s suburban mansion or as cozy as Bucky’s urban loft. It was as cold and unwelcoming as the man who lived there.
