The Other Guy (Zeldris x OC x Meliodas)

20

I couldn't lie, despite the guilt I felt and how much pain Zeldris was in, I was ecstatic that he was on his way to me regardless of the fact that Meliodas and his friends were his enemy. I kissed Meliodas softly then gazed into his eyes, "Zeldris is on his way here, Mel. Please don't try to hurt him, you know I'll protect him from your friends and it'll destroy me if one of you tries to make me choose." He nodded solemnly, "Do you feel alright to head downstairs with me so I can talk to them?" I grinned and started to stand up, "I feel great!" As I got dressed I decided to talk to Zeldris again, "Zel...something happened to Meliodas and he's lost most of his magical power...please don't hurt him. It'll destroy me to decide between you two, you know that." I heard him sigh heavily, which made me giggle before he responded, "Fine. I'll see you in a little while, Vipin. I love you so much." I could see the jealousy in Meliodas' eyes as he watched me but he knew my love for Zeldris couldn't be helped nor would it go away unless I broke the bond and he didn't want either of us to go through that. I interlocked my fingers with his then we headed downstairs. Everyone looked up from what they were doing, including faces I didn't recognize, to see who it was.

"Vipin!!" Diane and Elizabeth exclaimed together, they rushed over to greet me. "I'm so glad you're okay, the Captain has been by your side the whole time you've been asleep!!" Diane lamented, tears welled in her eyes. Most likely over Meliodas being upset rather than me being in a coma, but I digress. "Thank you! I can't believe I was out so long. Elizabeth, I'm so happy you're okay as well," I replied cheerfully. Meliodas cleared his throat, "Listen up everyone! My brother, Zeldris, is on his way here as he's now aware of Vipin being awake and that she won't leave my side. So! Refrain from attacking him as he's agreed to not attack us but also if you do, Vipin would protect him and if you attack her...you'll become my enemy," his voice was eerily calm and cold, I saw a couple people shudder. King was about to protest when we all felt a massive ominous presence approaching. "What in the heck is that?!" Hawk shouted. I grinned widely and replied, "It's Zeldris," just as he kicked the door in.

Zeldris grinned when his eyes met mine, he stormed past everyone and picked me up, making me wrap my legs around his waist. He kissed me hungrily as if he'd die if his tongue wasn't in my mouth immediately. I moaned quietly when he squeezed my ass then finally pulled away to grin at him, "Hi, Zel!" My eyes widened a little when I noticed his demon mark was now the same as mine and consequently his brother's. "Hi Vip," his voice was barely above a whisper. Meliodas cleared his throat, Zeldris tensed immediately then put me down and before I could stop him he punched his brother hard in the face. "Zeldris!" I exclaimed, everyone else readied themselves to attack him but were cognizant of their Captain's words from earlier. Meliodas got up, his eyes were now as black as his brother's, and punched Zeldris in response. "Meliodas!" I was frozen in place. There wasn't anything I could do, their power was far beyond my own physically so I watched helplessly. No one else dared to interrupt as the brothers continued their fist fight over me. "You fucking...bastard!" Zeldris growled, the last word spat out after Meliodas punched him square in the jaw. "We couldn't...control...it!" Meliodas growled back, getting punched in the face twice in a row by Zeldris.

Before Meliodas got a chance to throw another punch, I jumped between them. My face was on fire as I'd lost balance and fell into Zeldris as I faced his brother, who tripped as he stopped himself mid punch to avoid hitting me causing me to be pinned between them. Both of them were still raging as they glared at each other past me, seemingly unbothered by how we looked to everyone else in a pile on the floor. "Please stop! Zeldris, you know this isn't something Meliodas and I could prevent. Our blood was mixed and it was inevitable! Meliodas, please stop, I'm not going to leave you!" I pleaded with them as they continued glaring at the other. "I don't care, you're mine," Zeldris retorted through gritted teeth. "She's mine!" Meliodas spat back, I huffed in response. Before I could reply, Merlin appeared and put both demon men in Perfect Cubes, moving them so I wouldn't be squished anymore. "Merlin!" Diane exclaimed, she had a worried look on her face but started to become relieved as the demons were now separated, though each were angrily pouting. I giggled at their pouting, when they looked my way their eyes softened and despite their jealousy and rage at the moment they couldn't help but smile at me.
