~~(Y/N) POV~~

     I pant heavily as I run the halls, trying to find my way out of this mansion. How big is this place? I question as I round a corner and start quickly rushing down the stairs.
      "(Y/n), this is pointless, my dear. Running won't get you anywhere. You only go where I will the mansion to lead you." Radio's voice seems to echo around me, making me look behind and see him walking calmly.
     Like I'm prey that can easily be culled.
       "Liar! I'm getting out of here!" I snap back as I finally reach the bottom of the stairs and run for the nearest hallway.
       "You can't escape our deal. It didn't even burn since its coated with my magic." Radio's voice claims as I look around. "You're making poor choices already." He claims as I finally spot my exit.
      An open window.
      I swallow the lump in my throat as I look down.
       It's about a ten foot drop.
      "Don't do that, darling. It'll hurt real bad and I always hate seeing you hurting." Radio claims as he still walks calmly.
       "Leave me alone, Radio!" I yell to him as I sit on the windowsill before taking a deep breath as I lean out and fall. I scream in pain as my ankle breaks.
     "Please come inside. This is very stupid of you to do." He says while looking down at me.
     I bite back my pain as I stand and start limping for the front path. I can make it. Just a bit more and I'm free from him! I think as I start to limp faster as I hear the front door open.
     "(Y/n), you're being ridiculous." He says calmly while walking down the stairs as I stop in front of the bushes leading to the road. "You're safer here. You know me. Out there, people will happily try to con or hurt someone niave like you."
     "I was a slave to Kaiden and Myla! Don't say that I didn't have a bad life!" I snap at him before turning to head into the road again.
     "You can't pass those rose bushes. The deal keeps you at the house unless you're out with me." Radio claims boredly as I step into the road.
     I give a yelp as a small shock goes through me as a red barrier seems to ripple around my figure. I'm really stuck here with this monster of a man. I think before slumping to the ground and willing the tears not to fall from my eyes.
     "Do you remember what I always used to say to you when you'd get bullied your first year of high school?" Radio asks, making me look up at him. "Dry those tears and put on a smile..." he pauses while looking down at me hopefully.
     "Because you're never fully dressed without one." I reply before looking down at my hands.
     "That's my girl!" He says before leaning down and picking me up into a bridal carry.
       "I thought you hated being touched? You shut me down when I was seventeen and joked that your nickname calling was a pet name for like a toy." I say to him even though I know I can't walk.
       "You're different. You're not filthy." He claims and I quirk an (h/c) eyebrow at him.
     What's that supposed to mean? I think in confusion before resting my head against his shoulder as we enter the house, the door shutting itself behind us. "I'm still mad at you, Radio."
       "I know you are, little fawn. I can practically smell how much you want to gouge my eyes out!" Radio claims with a laugh before turning at a door I recognize.
       It's the door to the room I woke up in.
     The door opens on its own before Radio steps inside. He doesn't say anything as he sits me down on the end of the bed before a red light appears and a stool is under his rear as he sits down.
     Woah. I think before he does it again, but his time a bandage.
     "You really shouldn't have jumped. You're lucky that I can heal the break to a sprain." Radio claims as he places his hands on my lower leg before it starts to glow red.
     I give a scream as pain shoots through my leg but lessens before it's only an annoying sting of being sore.
     "There there, darling. It won't take long for it to heal now." Radio claims, now with slight eye bags under his eyes as he stands.
     "I'm sorry." I apologize to him before looking away. What am I doing? I should hate him for making me be down here and basically imprisoning me. I think before glancing at him.
     "Don't apologize. Think of it as a....friendly favor." He states, making me scoff.
     "Go to hell." I say with a grin.
     "Can't because I'm already here!" He jokes as he starts to head for the door.
     "Radio?" I call to him, making him pause in his steps. "Thanks, for fixing my leg." I clarify while he removes his overcoat.
     "Sleep tight, little fawn." Radio claims before leaving.
     Click! The door bids goodbye for him as sets into place.
     I'd think he'd be mad at me for trying to run away. I think while getting up and going to one of the dressers, hoping to find sleepwear. Much less try and burn the scroll with our deal. I think as I pull out a purple long nightgown that looks to be my size. Maybe he's right.
Maybe I am safer here if the rest of hell is as bad as he says.

~~ALASTOR {RADIO} POV~~

     She's become more free, of course she's going to act against you, Alastor. I think while staring into the flickering flames in the lounge, my overcoat resting on the back of the couch. I just didn't expect her to throw it in the fire. I think while summoning the scroll that's slightly burnt and black on the edges. I give a heavy sigh as I lean my head back.
     I need rest. I think tiredly before standing up. It's a strange feeling as my feet me lead me somewhere.
     Of course most nights I wander the mansion, but this felt different.
     I stop in front of the girl's door as a faint light shines from under the crack below the door. I will the hinges and handle to be silent as I step inside and quietly walk over to the sleeping figure on the bed.
     (Y/n) snores softly as her (h/c) hair falls slightly in her face.
     She looks more beautiful than she did when she was alive. I think while watching her sleep. After five years, I finally get to meet you in the flesh. You've grown to be so strong. I think while moving the hair from her face.
     You're finally mine. I won't let anyone ever hurt you. I think as I turn off the lamplight on the bedside table before walking out.
