An old lady dressed like a maid came into the room.
T: "Here Margaret will help you get changed. You should get some sleep now."
He walked out of the room and you heard a key turning in the lock. Margaret helped you get changed and you fell asleep immediately.
You woke up few hours later when someone entered your room. It was him again and he looked even more handsome than before. He placed a plate full of food on your bedside table and watched you while you ate it. Feeling his eyes on you felt a bit uncomfortable but you were so hungry you didn't really mind. After finishing your food he reached for a medical kit that he brought to the room earlier. He cleansed a wound on your forehead and treated bruises on your face. You groaned in pain a few times but he continued with what he was doing not minding it at all.
T: "Lift up your sleeves, I wanna see your bruises."
You lifted up your sleeves and showed him your swollen wrists. The pain was so strong you almost didn't feel it anymore. He thoroughly treated every bruise on your arms and legs and bandaged the wounds that were
fresh. The silence between you two started irritating you so you broke it with a question that you already knew the answer to.
Y/n: "Who are you?"
He smirked.
T: "I think you know who I am."
Y/n: "You're Tom Riddle..."
T: "And you're Y/n." he threw in with sarcasm in his voice.
You stayed silent for a minute. Everytime he spoke he made you feel so awkward. It was as if your brain was empty and you couldn't find the words to say anything. You were mesmerized by him and terrified of him at the same time.
Y/n: "Why are you doing this? Why are you taking care of me?"
T: "Because I simply couldn't put up with my father hurting such a beautiful girl like you."
After that he got up, walked to the door, glanced back at you, smirked, left the room and locked you in again.
