Coffee Shop [C]

Chapter twelve

Angelo woke up, frowning at his surroundings. He let out a small whimper as the previous days events flew through his mind. He tugged on the cuffed, wincing as pain shot through his arms.

"Morning my sweet angel." Angelo flinched at the nickname, looking down at the sheets. "You made your wrists bleed." Ronnie sighed. He undid Angelo's cuffs, quickly pushing him down on the bed. Angelo let out a small whimper of pain, his eyes widening as Ronnie pulled out a shock collar.

"Please don't Ronnie." Angelo begged. Ronnie sighed, shaking his head. He quickly wrapped it around Angelo's neck.

"If you misbehave I will shock you. Understand?" Angelo nodded, biting his lip. "Now let's go downstairs." Ronnie stated. Ronnie stood up, waving for Angelo to stand. He slowly pushed himself up, whimpering as he put pressure on his leg.

"Shit." Angelo hissed. He let out a small gasp as a shock was sent through his body. He fell back on the bed, clawing at the collar.

"No cussing." Ronnie growled. Angelo nodded, letting gout a small whimper. Angelo let out a small sigh, leaning on his unhurt leg as he stood up again. He slowly followed Ronnie out the room, keeping a hand on the wall. "Sit at the table." Ronnie chuckled, gesturing to the table. Angelo slowly took a seat, glaring at the table. He bit his lip, clasping his hands.

"What are you doing?" Angelo asked. He gasped as pain shot through his neck. He laid his head down on the table, tears forming. "Stop." Angelo begged. "Please just stop. I'll do anything if you just don't shock me again." Angelo sobbed.

"Say you love me." Ronnie spoke. He moved to sit next Angelo. "Tell me you love me more than that stupid rich prick." Angelo bit his lip, looking down at the table.

"I... I l-love you." Angelo whispered. Ronnie frowned at, tapping his fingers.

"Why did you stutter?"

"I'm nervous." Angelo whispered. Ronnie immediately smiled at him, kissing his cheek. Angelo bit his lip, looking down at the table again.

"You don't have to be nervous around me baby." Ronnie chuckled. He placed a hand on Angelo's thigh, making the man jump. "Why don't you show me how much you love me?" Ronnie asked.

"I just... I can't. I'm so tired." Angelo mumbled. Ronnie sighed, nodding. "I'm sorry Ronnie."

"Are you hungry?" Angelo slowly nodded. "Good. I'll make some food."

Chris paced the room, pinching the bridge of his nose. He hated having police in his home.

"Mr. Cerulli, getting stressed out will not help." A female officer attempted to calm him. He let out a small sigh, biting his lip.

"Why are you even here? Someone out there took him and I know who it was." Chris growled. "Ronnie Radke took my boyfriend."

"How can you be so sure?" She asked, shaking her head. "No one has called about a ransom."

"He doesn't want a ransom! He sees Angelo as property." Chris growled. "He wants to keep him locked away and will possibly kill him the first time Angelo becomes unbearable. What's your name?"

"Costello. Ashley Costello." She sighed. "We have officers out checking the properties that Mr. Radke owns."

"Fine then." Chris scoffed. He grabbed his jacket off the back of the couch, stomping to the front door. "I'll go find him with my own people."
