Yandere! Prison Warden
Word Count: 815 words
The iron bars clanged shut with a metallic scream, the sound ricocheting through the damp, desolate halls. He always made sure you heard it—a cruel ceremony of finality, a reminder that every door in this labyrinthine prison led nowhere but back to him.
He stood there, broad shoulders darkened by the dim, flickering fluorescents above. His uniform strained against his chest, every sinew rippling with power as though the fabric itself protested containing him. His shadow stretched long, cutting across the grime-encrusted floor, swallowing you whole even before his gaze did. Those eyes—shards of obsidian, glinting like knives—carved into you, stripping away any pretense of strength you thought you still possessed.
“You’ve been naughty again, haven’t you? You filthy worm.” His voice was a low rumble, as though the earth itself were growling beneath your feet.
Your breath hitched, the silence that followed his words louder than any scream. He noticed. He always noticed.
Stepping closer, his boots fell heavy against the floor, each step deliberate, like the ticking of a clock counting down to your undoing. The air around him felt different—he carried an oppressive heat, a suffocating intensity that seeped into your skin, branding you with his presence. His hand, large and calloused, wrapped around the iron bars of your cell, the veins in his forearm bulging grotesquely with restrained force.
“You think I don’t see the way you fight it?” His lips curled into a sneer, and his tone dipped, almost tender—mocking. “The way you look at me when you think I’m not paying attention? You’re a terrible liar.”
His free hand reached into the pocket of his uniform, pulling out a key that gleamed wickedly under the poor light. He twisted it slowly, each metallic click loud enough to echo inside your ribcage. When the door creaked open, it felt like the walls themselves leaned in, conspiring with him to trap you.
“There are rules here,” he continued, stepping inside, the space shrinking with his sheer presence. “Rules you’ll learn to follow.”
You stumbled back, heart hammering, though there was nowhere to go. His smirk widened as you pressed yourself against the wall, trembling like a caged animal. His shadow fell over you, eclipsing the pale, flickering light until all you could see was him. His scent—a mixture of musk, metal, and something faintly coppery, like old blood—invaded your senses.
He crouched, his massive frame folding with a deceptive grace. The proximity was unbearable. His breath fanned your face, warm and slow, as though he were savoring your fear. His hand reached out, fingers brushing your jaw with a touch that was too gentle to be anything but sinister.
“You’re so delicate,” he murmured, his voice thick with mockery and something darker, hungrier. “So breakable. Do you know how easy it would be for me to take everything from you?”
His thumb traced the curve of your cheek, the calloused pad rough against your skin. “You think you’re strong, don’t you?” he mused, tilting his head as though studying a particularly fascinating insect. “That you can resist me. But look at you now, trembling, trying to disappear into the walls.”
The smile that split his face then was horrifying, a grotesque display of teeth. “There’s no escape from me. Not here. Not ever.”
His fingers curled around your throat, not squeezing, just holding—asserting his dominion. The pad of his thumb pressed against the hollow at the base of your neck, feeling your pulse race like a caged bird.
“Do you feel that?” he asked, voice dropping to a whisper that slid into your ear like a blade. “That’s fear. That’s submission. And I’ll make sure you learn to love it.”
When his grip tightened, it wasn’t to choke but to pin you, to remind you that every ounce of strength he had could snuff you out in an instant. His other hand, deceptively gentle, brushed a strand of hair from your face. His touch lingered, savoring the softness, as though cataloging every inch of you for later.
“You’ll call me cruel,” he said, leaning in so close his lips nearly brushed your ear. “But cruelty is love when it comes to you. Because if I didn’t care, I wouldn’t bother keeping you alive.”
The words left you frozen, the weight of their meaning sinking into your chest like lead. He stood then, towering above you, his shadow a living thing that stretched out to claim you.
“You’re mine, fuckin’ filth,” he said simply, his voice devoid of any pretense of affection. It was a statement of fact, as immutable as the bars of your cell, as cold and unyielding as the chains he fastened around your wrists before leaving you in the dark.
And as his footsteps faded into the distance, you realized that the worst part wasn’t the silence he left behind—but the way a part of you longed for his return.
