as he silently walked into your room, you clutched your blankets tighter with your bandaged hands, shivering out of fright already, he silently stared at your form, his heart tightening again.

it had been a week since the nightmare had stopped but it was obvious that your trauma and scars would stay a long while

About a month ago, you were mistakenly identified as a Homelanian spy and taken to the royal castle as a captive. Despite your pleading and tears, begging the crown prince to let you go and insisting that you were innocent, none of your words were heard.

Bakugo never thought his judgment could be so wrong. You were tormented for a week—interrogated and starved. It only came to an end when one of his knights, Kirishima, entered the throne room with another woman who looked remarkably like you, the real spy from Homelanian, it was all a set trap and he fell for it

He couldn't bear the burden that weighed on his shoulders, an innocent civilian tortured to the point where you had voluntarily gone mute, he had shifted you to a royal chamber, to make sure you were taken care of properly so that you could heal...you had attempted multiple times but he stationed his guards right outside of your room, making sure they would protect you from everything...including yourself.
