Wag's Pov

Jordan's a mess. They've raised the price for what he described as imprisonment. He's stopped eating, so have I. I know he cuts cause I found the razor.

Mot still doesn't know he's here. I'm on the verge of telling him for not only Jordan's well being but my own. I don't want to be like this! I want to be happy James again!

"Morning." Jordan mumbles to me he's still in Mot's hoodie. "You want food?" I ask but he doesn't answer. "Jordan I'm worried about you." I finally say after the long silence that had rolled between us.

"Don't be. I'm fine, just not hungry." Jordan answers and sits next to me on the couch. "You're depressed." I argue but before Jordan can protest there's a knock on the door.

"That's my cue." Jordan whispers but I have a feeling he should stay for this. "Wag? Can I come in?" Mot says and Jordan tries to scramble out of my grip. I'm at my home my power is strongest here, even if my mental state isn't the happiest at least I still have my magic.

I keep one fist clenched so I have a hold on Jordan and use my other hand to unlock the door for Mot. He smiles as he enters but that smile fades completely when he sees Jordan.

I let Jordan go and I can see the betrayal written all over Jordan's face. This is what is best for him.

Mot's Pov

Jordan has lost the little tan he had entirely. I have no clue what's going on under that hoodie of mine, it can't be good. He has bags under his eyes which means he hasn't been sleeping.

I feel my eyes swell with tears and Jordan runs to me. "Mot I'm okay! I really am." I shove away from Jordan. He promised he'd call! He promised to be safe!

"You promised me." I whisper yell. Working with Dianite has taught me to put on a brave face but all that training goes down the drain at times like these.

"I'll give you two time." Wag says and starts to leave. I see Jordan's eyes fill with concern. He must've seen it to because he responds to Jordan's silence.

"I'm gonna go see Tom. I'll be back before sundown." With that he disappears into thin air. "Take that hoodie off." I beg but Jordan just shakes his head.

"I can't Mot." He says wiping my tears. "Its not as if I don't already know! Let me help." I cry and Jordan looks away.

"You have no idea what it feels like to have someone you care about so much put a dollar value on you and demand you return. It fucking hurts Mot! It hurts a lot." Jordan's crying too now. I can't tell him about the girl, not now.
