Killing Love

Chapter nine- A letter from home

Virgil laid on his bed, staring up at the ceiling. Roman was gone on another mission thing and he didn't really know anyone else here.

Sighing heavily, he rolled out of bed and into the floor. He got up and left his room. Going downstairs and into the living room of the mansion.

"Oh, you must be Virgil. I'm Emile! The therapist around these parts!" Emile spoke as Virgil entered the room.

"T-therapist? Why does Roman have a therapist here?" Virgil asked, flopping down on the couch.

"Well, with this line of 'work' some bad things happen. Things that can cause PTSD and other things like that. So Mr. Prince hired me to help out him and the people who work for him." Emile explained.

Virgil nodded, "That makes sense. When will Ro be back?" Virgil asked.

"Right now," Roman spoke as he walked into the living room. Virgil beamed and jumped up, rushing over to Roman.

Virgil bounced up and into Roman's arms. Roman laughed and held Virgil up. "I missed you, Ro."

"Did you, princess? I was only gone for a few hours." Roman responded with a smile.

"That's too loooong!" Virgil whined. Roman laughed and set Virgil down.

"If that's long, you'll die next week." Remus chirped as he entered the room with another male.

"Remus!" Roman scolded. Virgil gave Roman a confused look.

"What is he talking about?" Virgil asked.

"I have to leave for a week...I'm leaving Saturday." Roman told him. Virgil stared at him before shaking his head.

"N-no! No! You can't leave me! I don't know anyone else here." Virgil said, staring into Roman's eyes.

"Baby, please, not that look." Roman said. Virgil made his eyes water slightly.

"Baby, princess, c'mon," Roman said, trying to look from Virgil.

"Oh my god, you can come with me! Just stop staring at me!" Virgil beamed and hugged Roman tightly.

"Thank you, Ro!" Virgil said happily. Roman just nodded and hugged Virgil.

"Mr. Prince? A letter came for Virgil." Patton said as he handed the letter to Roman.

"Thank you, Patton." Virgil took the letter out of Roman's hands.

Dear Virgil,
      
       Life is extremely weird without you here. Linsey and I have trouble waking up in the morning without you here. We all miss you dearly.
        Father is worrying himself to death, thinking you're hurt or suffering. I told him I didn't think you were being treated badly, but he doesn't believe me.
       Linsey has started taking piano classes now. A dream of hers, but I'm sure you remember that. Father has made enough money to pay for Linsey's classes.
      She has also started reading some of your old books you left in your room. Her favorite so far is Alice in wonderland. A story you loved too.
      Father found the book you wanted. It's sitting on your bed for when you escape that man. It seems like a wonderful story.
      I can't wait till you're home. We all are so lonely without you and your beautiful smile. I pray so hard that man hasn't hurt you.
       Father said you were locked up in a cell his that man's basement. Both Linsey and me cried so hard when we heard what you have to go through. You are so brave, Virge.
      I love you so dearly. I hope you come back home soon. Write back to me, if you can. We all will love to hear from you."
                                                        
                                                         Sincerely,
                                                               Sierra

Virgil stared down at his older sister's loopy hand writing. Roman had read the letter from over Virgil's shoulder.

"Am I allowed to tell her I'm fine? That you're taking good care of me?" Virgil asked, leaning back into Roman and looking up at him.

"Of course, baby. Tell her whatever you want." Roman said. Virgil smiled and reach up to Roman's face. He planted a soft kiss to Roman's cheek before going up to his bedroom.

Virgil sat down at his desk and started to write.

     Dear Sierra,

       Do not worry about me. Roman is taking perfect care of me. He's keeping me safe and cared for.
       I'm not locked up in some cell. I have a beautiful bedroom with its own bathroom. I can go anywhere in the mansion I want. I have free range of the outside ground too, but Roman has to be with if I go outside.
      Not because he's controlling me, just because he's afraid I'll get hurt by someone who wants him hurt.
      I've met a lot of people here. They are all nice.
     Emile is a therapist that Roman hired. Remus is Roman's twin brother. Logan is a loyal friend and worker of Roman. Patton is a servant of Roman and nice. He's just a lot. There's one more guy I haven't truly met yet. He hangs out with Patton a lot.
      But I'm doing really well. Roman is wonderful, truly.
      Sierra this next part, don't tell papa about or Linsey.
      But, I think...I think I'm in love with Roman.
     He's so amazing. He treats me so incredibly. He treats me like he loves me.
      And he's super hot. Like drooling hot.
      But please don't tell papa or Linsey. This stays between us.
      But tell papa not to worry. I'm perfectly fine and safe.
      I love you, sis. Tell Linsey and papa I love them too.

                                                        Sincerely,
                                                              Virgil

Virgil slipped the letter into an envelope. And took it downstairs.

"Patton? Would you mail this out for me?" He asked. Patton nodded and took the letter from him.

Virgil went upstairs and into Roman's office, finding him and Remus talking. "Hey, baby," Roman greeted, opening his arms up to Virgil.

Virgil settled himself on Roman's lap. Snuggling close to Roman.

"Just fuck already. Jesus." Remus said, with a smirk.

Virgil blushed brightly and hid his face in Roman's shoulder.

"Remus. No." Roman glared at his brother.

"Whatever, Ro-Bro."
