Cesare de Borgia - Oh, you don't wanna mess with him. I was debating who would be the worst to a darling, and then I took one look at Ruby, and I immediately knew the answer. While I think escaping Izek might be harder, Cesare will fuck you up.

He is Cardinal Valentino, a priest, a holy figure guiding lost, etc. Truly, if any scandal with you reached the outsiders ears, his reputation would be done for, that's only if anyone would believe you.

You would get trained to be an obedient dog and other inhumane humiliating practices. You would get abused on the daily until he broke you apart and made out into exactly what he wanted. So yeah. He's the worst.

Izek van Omerta - I mean, just look at him! He is pure terror, no one would disobey him in the north, and your chances of escaping would be non-existent with how many people he has contacts with.

Besides, he himself is insanely strong and has great authority over Dukedom. No suspicious move of yours would be left unreported, and if he ever chose to lock you up and never let you out, the servants would be too scared to ever intervene.

While he wouldn't hurt you per se, he would be very jealous and possessive. As I mentioned before, escape would be impossible as he will search for you tirelessly for days, weeks, and months on end with little to no sleep.

His family wouldn't be of much help either, as long as Izek's happy...

Ellen van Omerta - Also has authority over the dukedom. Of course, not as severe as Izek, but still very influential nonetheless.

She is also very cold and intimidating to others, so really, they wouldn't want to do anything to cross her. And the servants are loyal to her.

If she were to keep you tethered to her, no one would bat an eye, not wanting to go against the family of the Duke. Izek also will not save you. He doesn't care about you at all.

His sister is happy with you, and that's all that matters to him. If you were to do something to Ellen, you would find out just how intense his wrath could be. He would leave you alive, though, since his sister insists on keeping you around.

Rudbeckia de Borgia (current Ruby) - Depends on her leaning on Izek tbh. If she's close with him, he could keep you around for his wife's happiness since he loves her more than anyone. So you would have to walk on eggshells around both of them, and I'm not sure if Izek would ever even like you.

Ruby likes you, that's a fact. But does Izek like the fact that Ruby spends all of her free time with you? Not so much.

She'd be rather gentle, but Izek is another case entirely. So he will be the one keeping you in check, not her. However, if the situation calls for it, she also will put you in your place. Her great, innocent reputation does come in handy.

Rudbeckia de Borgia (past life) - If she wanted you, you would be hers quite frankly. Compared to current Ruby, she has way fewer brakes when it comes to doing crazy actions. And she had way fewer reservations about keeping up an act.

Could and would manipulate you to keep you around. She doesn't rely on and trusts anyone other than herself, so you would be in her orbit constantly. And that would give you no chances to ever escape.

While the current Ruby we're used to rely on others, this Ruby does everything herself, do not mistake that.

Freya van Furiana - Not really threatening. She doesn't confront head-on and uses petty tricks, mostly just mind games and rumors. Playing the political games of her family.

If you are a commoner against a Marquise daughter, you are powerless, yes. But that doesn't mean you have no way out. Freya's family would not approve of her obsession with someone so insignificant. Other than her brother Lorenzo, no one supports that. Her family would try to get you, a mere commoner, away from her, to your delight, and Freya's despair.

If you are a person of a greater status, you will not get rid of her. Her family would want her to get close to you for the connections and better relationships. And since all she ever wanted was to cling to you, this turn of events is her absolute dream!

And due to your position, you can't exactly push her away either without damaging relationships with the Marquis family...

She could potentially try to frame you and your close ones to get what she wants, some blackmail perhaps, but it's a lot more of the reputation and social games with her.

Lorenzo van Furiana - You would be locked up most of the time. His family wouldn't really care because of his knightly duties and because they have Freya to play their political games for them.

Freya would judge you, yes, but all she wants is happiness of her brother, so she would help him in dealing with you.

If you ever run away, he would be devastated, but other than him and Freya, no one would want to help, and no one would care.

Potentially, Freya could ask Ellen to help dispatch a group of people to look for you, but they wouldn't be as fervent as if they were searching for Duke's missing darling.

You have plenty of time to escape, and I think you would be completely free after escaping through the borders of the country. He would never be able to find you again.

Sir Ivan - It's not the worst situation to be in. Ivan doesn't have as much authority as the people mentioned above. The most he could ever do was to lock you up in his room/house. To keep up the appearance.

Izek might give him a look but will not outwardly comment on the situation as long as Ivan behaves well and doesn't slack off.

If you ran away he would obviously look for you and abandon his duties, which in turn might make Izek irritated, so he would either get more people to help search for you so Ivan could go back to work quicker or search for you with Ivan himself.

Both of those options are scarily accurate in locating you, by the way. I can't imagine Ivan being violent with you in any situation, even after escaping, so that's why I think he would be one of the least dangerous yandere to be with! All he wants to do is adore you.

Enzo de Borgia - One of the tamer ones I imagine, less aggressive than Lorenzo could get. Would keep you with him, and his family would disapprove of his blatant infatuation. It would be fine as long as he keeps it indoors, though.

When you escape, he will try to find you. His family will allow him to, for a time. But to keep up appearances, they will not intervene, and after a while of unfruitful search, I can see them just calling it off, saying to Enzo that there's no point and so on.

His family could either try to fiercely find you to protect their image, or they could pretend as if you never existed at all too, to cover up the fact that their family member's lover ran away. It's fair game either way.

Another one that if you escape the country he will not find you. 50/50 chance he'll find you in Britannia Kingdom, but that's about it.

It had been a couple of days since someone had spotted you in the forest. Being a very shy and reclusive person, you ran away without a second thought. You were kicking yourself for that now. Maybe they just wanted to talk to you. You thought about it rather often. You only caught a small glimpse of the person who saw you; from what you saw, they looked rather handsome. Oh well, there wasn't really much you could do about it now anyway. On that day, you had finished all the books you had borrowed from your local library and decided it was time to return them and take home some more to read. So, you decided to walk to the library, expecting it to be a normal visit. Get to the library, return your books, have a small chat with the librarian, pick out your new books, and go home. Simple as that! Well, not today.

~*~*~*~*~

Coincidentally, on that same day, the rangers also decided to take a trip to the library. They all browsed the shelves, Ivan looking at a section dedicated to different hobbies with Riley. They both wanted to see what kind of swordsmanship books they had, but as they browsed, Ivan spotted a book about the gift of singing. It made him think back to you, and he struck up a conversation with Riley about his encounter. He was slightly disappointed that the two or you hadn't gotten to speak but hoped that maybe on another day, he'd be able to have a decent conversation with you. Unbeknownst to Ivan, as he described this encounter, you were on the other side of the shelf.

~*~*~*~*~

As your earbuds had died before you left your apartment, you had to wander around without them. Now that you think about it, it just might have been fate. You were browsing books about singing, hoping to improve on it. However, as you searched, you heard a voice on the other side. Not having anything else to listen to, you tuned in on their conversation. Oh my god. No way. It was the man who had been watching you from the treeline a few days back. He described the exact encounter at the exact same time at the exact same place. Wanting to know more about this stranger and having a free day, you decided you'd follow him around. Yes, it sounded creepy, and it might've been, but it increased your chances of getting to know him, so you might as well.

~*~*~*~*~

Ivan met up with the rest of his friends, and they began their walk back to the museum. You followed not too far behind them, curious as to where they were going. The redecorating hadn't yet been finished, but Kendall needed two employees to be tour guides and selected Shelby and Ivan. You followed the two of them back to the museum. You had never been in a museum and were incredibly intrigued by it. Crowds made you feel uncomfortable and nervous, so you avoided crowds or tour guides and decided to wander around by yourself instead of getting a tour guide. It was your first time in a museum, and you were incredibly interested. You pulled out your camera and took multiple pictures. Out of the corner of your eye, you saw Ivan's group approaching their last section, the section you were in. You quickly left the museum before they could approach you. You hadn't noticed, but Ivan has actually spotted you in that section. He wanted to rush over and hopefully get to talk to you, but before he could, you left the museum. Once again, he felt disappointed but was hopeful that the two of you would cross paths once again.

~*~*~*~*~

It had been a few weeks since Ivan had last seen you, and the two of you hadn't bumped into each other since. You were too nervous to go back to the museum, so you usually just stayed at your apartment or went to a different section of the woods. Since the café had reopened, all the rangers were back at work once again, so Ivan couldn't roam the woods in search of you. It was business as usual until Ms. Morgan alerted them of alien bio signs in the woods. When she sent over the location, Ivan couldn't help but notice how close it was to the spot he first saw you in. His heart stopped as he pondered if the monsters were there to hurt you. This thought only made him want to get to the woods even faster. As they ran through the woods, they decided to morph in a thick section of the forest where nobody would see them. After morphing, they got to the section of the woods where the bio signs were. No way. In the clearing was a girl. But not just any girl, a ranger. She fought the monsters but was close to being outnumbered and overwhelmed. She seemed to be getting weaker, so the rangers jumped in and helped. As they fought, they noticed the absence of the girl. She appeared to be the crimson ranger. She had one of the few energems they didn't have their hands on yet. The rangers realised she was nowhere to be seen, Ivan scanned the clearing, spotting a red blur running towards the spot he had first seen you in. The rangers could deal with the monsters, so Ivan took off after hed.

He caught up to her, seeing the new ranger sat on her knees, removing her helmet. Ivan's eyes widened at the sight of you. You were the ranger they had just seen. Slowly approaching you, he removed his helmet. "Hello, milady, please dont run, I must talk to you." You whipped your head around fast enough to give you whiplash, eyes filled with nervousness and fear. The urge to flee consumed you, but you fought it. The realisation hit you; it was the same man who had seen you here last time and the same man you followed around the museum. He took another step closer, but you stayed put. As he got closer, you felt safer... it was unusual. Typically, the closer people were to you, the more uncomfortable you felt. But this time, it was different. His presence made you feel safe. He slowly came and sat beside you, eyes softened. From the corner of his eye, he could see a multitude of different types of wildlife proceed towards the two of you. Ivan couldn't help but notice how much more relaxed you seemed with the animals surrounding the two of you. You motioned for Ivan to continue. "I'm not sure if you recognise me, but I saw you here a few weeks ago." You nodded, signalling to him that you did in fact recognise him. "I also notice that you're a power ranger, like me. I know it seems daunting to be one but you've been selected for a reason." Your face seemed nervous at this, unsure if you were right for this. "I don't know; I'm not sure I'm made for this. I'm not strong or brave enough to do this." Your voice was soft and shaky, but adorable to Ivan. He barely knew you but was sure he had a crush on you. He noticed your shaky hands, hugging your knees. In fact, your whole body was shaking lightly. He slowly placed a hand atop of yours, silently reassuring you it was alright. Your eyes met his, seeming thankful for the gesture. "Please, join our team. I beg of you." Your thoughts raced through your head and before you could think straight, you spoke softly. "Okay. I'll join you." He smiled at you, his smile made you blush ever so slightly but it thankfully went unnoticed by Ivan.

Ever so gently, Ivan took you wrist and guided you back to the battle. This time, you were a lot braver and were willing to help out but usually stuck to Ivan's side. As the battle finished, the rangers took you back to the museum. On the walk back, you stuck to Ivan's side like glue. Ivan felt safe to you, comforting and kind. No matter what, you were almost always with Ivan. The rangers teased Ivan about it on the rare occasions the two of you were separated, certain that Ivan had a crush on you. He called it absurd but deep down, he knew that they were right.

After a couple of months, Ivan decided he'd ask you to be his girlfriend. It was Ivan's day off but you were working so he had time to go buy some things and plan out the day without you finding out. He went to some stores, bought your favourite type of flowers and other things that you liked. After work, he went back to the museum to ask you if you'd be interested in going on a picnic in the forest. You graciously accepted, having a deep love and adoration for the forest. The two of you began walking, enjoying a quiet conversation or a comfortable silence. As you got closer to the clearing the two of you met in. Pulling out a picnic blanket from your bag, you gently set it down on the grass.
