Artemis sat in her room, she kept thinking about her interaction with Ap'lek, it made her stomach turn to see him upset with her. She had another shower trying to wash off the luxurious scent. She felt disgusted that she liked her boss. She felt disgusted with herself.
She sat in the hazy bathroom in a towel on the toilet. She didn't feel like moving. She had so many conflicting thoughts and feelings. What took her out of it was the sound of her doors hissing open. Only she can open it, she had the key. Who else could come in? She began to panic. She got up and grabbed a shampoo bottle. She peeked outside to see a tall black mass looking around her room. She opened the door wider and sighed with relief.
Kylo looked over at her. His mask sat at her desk. "So... Small." He stated with disgust.
"Well, not everyone has a high rank." She put the bottle back in the shower and entered her bedroom, clinging on her towel.
He smirked at her as he took his gloves off. "Another shower?"
"I-I needed to think."
His smile dropped as he scanned her red eyes. He took two strides and was right in front of her. He grabbed her face so she couldn't hide her sorrow. "What happened?" His tone was rough.
"Please, leave." She said in a small voice.
"Why?"
"Because a person of high rank isn't allowed in my room, not without reason. Doesn't it make you look bad?"
"What happened, huh?" He asked softly. "You can tell me." She shook her head. "Artemis," he warned. "Tell me."
"I don't have to tell you everything!" She hissed roughly. "I-I'm also naked." She hugged her towel for dear life.
"I've already seen you naked." He purred as he flicked hair off her shoulder. "Tell me what happened, Artemis." He ordered.
"No." She replied firmly.
"Do I have to force it out of you?" He asked, pulling her close.
"Kylo. Stop."
"Did Ap'lek do something?" He watched her bottom lip quiver. "He did. What did he say? Was he angry?"
"Kylo," She growled. She sighed and rested her head into his chest. He hugged her close. "Don't be mad at him. He just is really hurt. I think he still likes me for some reason. I feel awful but he.. he... Don't be angry with him."
He played with her hair. "What did he do?"
"H... He looked into my mind." He pulled back hastily. Kylo looked very angry. "Kylo, don't." She grabbed his arm, in the process her towel began to fall, showing her breasts, she hastily pulled back to fix her towel. He grabbed his mask. "Kylo, no! Please!" She started crying and that caused him to freeze. "I-I know it's wrong-"
"Beyond wrong, Artemis!" He growled. "He invaded your mind! What did he see?" She hesitated. "I'm not playing games, what did he see?"
She started crying again. "U-us..." She started sobbing. "I-I didn't want him to see it. He saw us..." He was already getting ready to leave. "Please don't, Kylo."
"If you think I'm just going to let him get away with that-"
"Don't!" She blocked the door. "Don't. Don't hurt him."
"I will punish my knights whatever way I see fit. He invaded your mind, if you think I'll let him off, you're wrong. Did it hurt?" She refused to answer and that pissed him off. "Artemis!" He made her flinch. "Did it hurt?" She slowly nodded her head. "Good girl. Thank you." He tilted her chin up at him, her bottom lip trembling. "I'll stop by tonight. He won't do that again."
"Kylo..." She said weakly. "Don't hurt him."
"No, I am." He heard her whimper. "But he deserves it."
"Don't do this. Please don't do this." She grabbed his shirt. "Stay with me." She dropped the towel, even though she was shivering. He couldn't open the door now. She tugged at his belt. "Stay..." He leaned down to capture her lips. He grabbed her roughly and kissed her possessively. He picked her up and tossed her onto the bed. He looked down at her with a hungry look in his eye. She spread her knees apart and had her finger tracing her navel before dropping it below, he quickly caught her wrist. He put his knee into the bed and lightly ran his hands down her sides. He grabbed her by her hips and tugged her closer to him.
He leaned down, so close to her lips. As she leaned in, he pulled back. "Stay here." He ordered darkly. "You're not that sly. I'll see you when I get back."
"Kylo..." She groaned. "Don't hurt him!" She grabbed his hand, tugging him closer to her. "Don't break anything."
He ran his callous hand down her thigh. "Stay here, I'll come by tonight. We can do whatever you want."
"I really don't want you to hurt him." She said softly.
"I'm Master Ren. I can do what I want."
"I thought I didn't have Master or Commander Ren. I had Kylo."
"When someone hurts you, I'm not your Kylo. So, listen to me as your Superior and lay in that bed and wait for me."
"I'm getting dressed. I'm freezing." She pushed him away she went to her dresser. She heard him shuffle near her. He planned a kiss on her shoulder blade and she pulled her underwear up. "Commander," She replied stiffly.
"If you want to call me Master in bed, you can." He purred. She scoffed at him roughly, making him chuckle.
"Stop that." She hissed.
He knew she was angry with him, but he didn't care. This had to be done. He left her when she had a bra on, the corridor was bare and wouldn't be able to see Artemis. He left and went to find his Knight.
When he did have a hold on Ap'lek, he was much more powerful than him and managed to invade his mind as he had done to Artemis. He thought it was only fair. He didn't really care for what he saw, only wanting to conflict pure pain onto him. The man was screaming against the bench he was strapped to.
Kylo got to see Artemis. He didn't like it when he saw her underneath Ap'lek. But then he saw them argue. Her screaming at the top of her lungs at him, angry tears spilling from her eyes.
"I hate you!" He heard her scream.
Kylo not only invaded his mind, but put thoughts into his mind, infuriating thoughts of Artemis with Kylo. The thoughts burned into his skull as he watched his Master kiss the girl he loves. Then finally Kylo chokes him almost to death, not stopping until he was purple and the vessels in his eyes popped. He let go to watch him take hoarse breathes.
"If you bother Artemis again. I won't be so kind." Kylo growled as his Knight was sweating profusely and had tears staining his face as well as blood running down his nose.
"Yes, Master." Ap'lek's voice was rough. "Thank you, Master Ren."
"Now, I'm going to go fuck Artemis." Kylo stormed out of the interrogation room. He was still fuming but knew he'd feel better after seeing her.
He knew it was quite late. He entered her quarters with little trouble. He saw her at her desk, she had an illuminated magnifier as she worked on repairing a circuit board. She had several tools out to her disposal. She didn't turn from her work. She had the radio playing tunes, basically propaganda songs that the First Order produced. One song was about how attractive and strong Kylo was.
He took his gloves off and mask. He set it on a side table. He listened to the song that played. He smirked as it was the one about him.
"He's a big strong man with a warrior's plan..."
He heard humming lightly. He turned to see her still working intensely. He didn't want to disturb her or mess her up. He just continued to get undressed until he was in his undergarment. He laid out on her small bed, it barely fit him. His feet reached the very end. He looked over at her, he soaked in her features.
"I'm almost done." He heard her mumble. "I told my friend I'd do this while she spent time with her boyfriend. I can't say no to work."
"You're not happy with me." He stated.
"No. I'm very angry. So I don't know why you came." She glanced over at him but he was very blurry from her strained eyes.
"I know." He replied plainly, laying down and looking at her ceiling. Finally she put her tools down and pushed her magnifier back. She rubbed her eyes and walked over to her dresser and pulled out generic pajamas. She let out a large yawn as she changed her clothes. "You know I had to do it."
"I don't see why you had to harm him."
"Yes you can." He moved over in bed for her to join him. She got under the covers and faced away from him. He wrapped his arms around her, pulling her against him. He kissed her neck. "I care about you. That's why I did it." His hand dropped to her waistband. His fingers traced her bare skin as he would let his fingers explore sightly below the band. "You know I care about you."
"Kylo, I'm not having sex with you." She replied roughly. "If you are going to stay with me, you can keep your hand out of my pants." She yanked his hand out.
He still pulled her close. He was still content even if he wasn't fucking her. He just kissed her head tenderly. "Goodnight, Artemis."
"Goodnight,"
