Disclaimer! I do NOT own hetalia nor any characters. I simply own the plot.

Takes place in the 1800's and yeah~ Enjoy!


"Well look at what we have here." A man seductively sang. He rounded her as if she were his prey; eyeing her up and down. An uncomfortable chill went down her spine. "Oh darling, you've been a bad girlie lately." He stated, still circling her.

"I-I'm sorry." Madeline sobbed. "I-I –"

"My dear Madeline! Have I not told you a million times? I am here to help you, love, not to harm you. You need to understand that." The man now stood behind her whispering in her ear.

"I-I'm so sorry, N-Nikolai. F-forgive me, please." Her weak creamy legs gave out beneath her. As she fell to the ground, the black haired male took a rough grasp of her wrist.

"Maddie, Maddie, Maddie. Don't faint on me, sunflower." His amethyst eyes made contact with her light indigo ones. "You need to understand that this is for the better." He sweetly spoke. His grip tightened on her creamy white wrist and brought her closer to himself as she squeaked in pain. "Madeline, you know exactly why you're here! Now quit your false damsel in distress act and wipe those crocodile tears from your stupid eyes!" He hissed through his clenched teeth.

"Nikolai! You're supposed to watch over me! But you don't! All you ever do is abuse me!" Madeline spat in the handsome man's face.

His strong right hand flew across the air and landed harshly on her right freckled cheek.

"Ms. Williams, how many times have I told you not to question my reasons and raise your voice to me?" His lovely eyes narrowed on her.

"I-I...I'm sorry Nikola..." Madeline's voice trailed off as she thought of how to leave the situation.

"Oh Madeline, your little mind is too idiotic. Did you know that I know exactly why you began to work for me?" A sly smirk conquered his plump watermelon lips.

As soon as Madeline heard his cocky words, she gasped and her eyes widened. Her gaze then set on the door behind the man. Not too long ago she had almost acquired access into the room, until a certain master caught sight of her, that is.

Nikolai laughed and sat in front of Madeline. He set his hand on her clothed thigh and softly whispered her name. "Madeline... to think I'd fallen in love with you. You naughty maid, shouldn't you not disobey your master? Yet either way, you weren't leaving this house." He explained in his usual gentle and kind voice. The voice she'd fallen in love with so long ago.

"Give it back, Nikolai. Give it back." She ignored his remark. "I need it back."
