Under his protection

Harsh Truths

-TW mention of blood and death-
*Daniel*

When we get home my head is all fuzzy and sleepy. Quin and Zeek are talking about grown up things so I'm not really listening...

"Did you enjoy the party bud" Zeek asks me, ruffling my hair gently. I was slowly walking next to them but my feet really hurt. I whine softly and stop walking, Quin understands because he picks me up resting me on his hip and my head on his shoulder.

"He is a bit tired, aren't you little one" Quin, as much as I didn't want him to be, was right so l just nod sleepily. "Use your words sweet pea" I whine again, I don't like using my words.

"Y-yeah" My head aches but when Quin rubs my back it's a bit better. "Head hurts" I whine into his ear.

"Nearly home Sweet Pea" Quin says back as he carries me back to his home. Not my home, my prison! He takes me upstairs to the nursery, setting me down.

"I can do it myself" I Huff which just makes Quin smile gently.

"I think you need to remember your manners little one" Quin says softly, a rub my eyes with my fist and yawn.

"Please can I do it by myself" I was starting to get frustrated and tired.

"Okay then cranky pants, if you need help just call" Quin chuckles and leaves. I'm not a fucking cranky pants he is just an asshole. I'm slowly undressing, I say slowly because these buttons are hard... I have only gotten  my short off and it's been half an hour. I start to sniffle which turns to full on tears, I'm standing there crying like a baby all because I couldn't get my clothes off quickly.

Quin comes rushing in and I lift my arms up to him, but I didn't want him. I don't want bitch face... But his hugs are nice I guess.

"Do you need some help little one, all you have to do is ask" Bitch face reminds me, god I hate him.

"P-pease hep meee" I managed between sobs. He puts me down and helps me take off the rest of my clothes. Laying me down which I didn't resist, changing my diaper which I didn't even know was soggy, not that I do this often... I was just busy okay, it's not like I'll do it again!

"There you go all done baby" He put me in a fucking onesie. It was Green which was my favorite colour but whatever...

"Tank yew" My voice sounds weird but I'm too tired to care that much.

"Come on my little prince, it's ni ni time" Da-Quin... I was gonna say Quin. Says to me kissing my cheek gently.

"Ni ni" I repeat softly as I rest my head on his shoulder. He is bouncing me gently which is oddly soothing and eventually I fall asleep in his arms.

When I wake up I feel something in my mouth, I spit it out onto my hand. A Fucking pacifier, disgusting. I throw it across the room just to have my leg popped hard. Where even was I? I'm strapped into some kind of seat which  is in the living room.

"We do not throw things. That's bad" Quin reers his head round before standing up and picking up the pacifier.

"Don't want it anyway, get me out this chair" I Huff this chair is stupid and whatever I was feeling last night I'm definitely not feeling anymore.

"You are not getting out of that chair until you say please" Quin responds calmly. I really do hate him...

"LET ME OUT OF THIS FUCKING CHAIRRRRRRRRR" I start to scream. I keep screaming until Quin picks me up and out of the chair. "You can out me down now" But quin just takes me upstairs. He puts me down on the nursery floor and shuts the door, locking it. He sits in the spanking chair, well shit... Maybe yelling at him wasn't the best idea. The way he is looking at me makes me want to cry.

"Come here Daniel" He sounds so oddly calm which just makes him scarier. I shake my head no and back myself into a corner. I start crying when he sighs softly. "Daniel your not in trouble, come here Sweet pea" He calls me sweet pea alot so I guess he really isn't mad but I still don't move. I'm stuck in the corner. He gets up and scoops me into his arms. This time he sits in the rocking chair, cradling me in his arms. "It's okay, your okay. Let's stop those tears now" Quin soothes, which reduces my tears to hiccups. "Now tell daddy what's wrong. Why did you wake up so cranky" He is talking like im a baby.

"I'm not a baby, stop talking to me that way" I Huff. "I just want to go back to my old life with my grandparents" Quins face dropped slightly.

"How about this, you go back to your grandparents and if you want to come back you can. But if you come back you never leave again" Quin suggests.

"YES! THANK YOU!" Finally, he listened to me.

"Do you want me to drive you there?" Quin asks and I nod. He helps me get dressed into actual clothes... Underwear is more uncomfortable than I remember but diapers are so embarrassing! When we are dressed Ezekiel starts up the car.

"How are they" I ask as the car pulls up outside my grandparents house.

"They should be exactly as you last saw them, we haven't interfered with them. Good luck Daniel" Quin says with a cold expression. I race out the car. I'm. So happy to be finally going home, I swing the door open...

*Quin*

As Ezekiel goes to start up the car I hear a blood cuddling scream. Immediately all of my guards and myself run towards the house, I open the door slowly and my heart instantly breaks for Daniel.

"Grandma" He whimpers, sobbing over the two body's on the floor with gaping wounds that looked fresh. Both of them laying dead in a pool of their own blood...

"Get the body's out of here. We can bury them in the family cemetery. I'll handle Daniel" I instruct Ezekiel, I lift Daniels curled up body gently so the dead body's can be removed. "I'm so so sorry you had to see that baby" I whisper to Daniel who cluthes onto me tightly.

"H-home... Let's go h-home please" Daniel whispers. He is so quiet I barely heard him, I sit in the car with him. Rubbing his back and shushing him softly, he should have never had to had seen that. I was determined to find out who would hurt my baby like this. His face all blotchy and red from crying so much and his small frame pressed against me for comfort.
