Life Afraid BxB

Chapter One

Ame's Pov

"Hey sweet heart can you please get out the plates?" My mom had asked it was like any other day me and my mom were starting diner and as usual my mom had forgotten a few things at the store so my twin and dad went to pick somethings up. I was really excited because it was Christmas eve. But anyway as I was getting the pot out there was a loud crash near the front door.

"Ame I need you to go and hide for me okay? Can you do that for me?" My mother had asked and me being my stupid nine year old self didn't understand why but I did as asked anyways. I heard a man yelling at my mother asking where he could find something of value in the house and when she told him that we had nothing of value he started to get louder.

This is where I get even dumber I got out of my hiding place to see what was going on just in time to see my mother get stabbed. I being a nine year old started sobbing I never was good at controlling my emotions that's when the man saw me he had this evil smirk on his face as he said,

"Sure nothing of value? HA yeah right! You'll catch a good price in the market." I started to back away from him I was caught before I got very far. This brings us to how I got where I am now, getting sold to my tenth master. He's much older than me maybe in his late 40's early 50's.

I'm not very good looking blond hair green eyes or talented at anything other cleaning and I'm not even really good at that. Well back to the topic on hand the man had brought me to his car and opened the back door and pushed me in before climbing in after me.

"You will be a very good help in my business meeting. I wont be your master as I am giving you to someone as a... a peace offering of sorts." A peace offering? A PEACE OFFERING?! How is a person a peace offering? And I have to be the worst person to be a peace offering.

Nickolas's Pov

I'm waiting for a competing business man to come we have a meeting in five minutes. Let me tell you I am not a patient man and if he is late the meeting will be cancelled. Just as the one minute mark hit there was a knock on the door.

"Come in" I say as my personal assistant got ready to take notes. When the man in his late forties came in there was this boy who walked in behind him.

"Mr. Arnail who is this?" I asked with a raised brow the boy is cute he has a very petite figure and is quite short around 5' with blond hair and bright green eyes that have a hint of orange in them.

"This would be my peace offering." What the fuck? Did he just call this boy this as if he's an object?

"Excuse me? I don't believe that a human is a peace offering." I say as I get ready to kick him out although the boy looks petrified.

"I paid good money for this kid" He grumbled before pushing the kid further in and dropping a file on the table before storming out and leaving the kid behind. I picked up the file and read it.

Last name: Sullivan First name: Ame Height: 5'1" Age: 18

Description: Refuses to speak and tends to space out

What the hell? I look at the file and then to the boy and back to the file. "Is your name Ame?" I ask softly trying not to scare him. I get a nod of his head and I frown I'm going to have to put him in therapy or something to get him to talk.

"Okay so are you okay with coming to mu house?" I ask and I can't help but wonder 'did the old guy buy him from the black market?' Ame just nods again well he looks around the meeting room. I start to head out the door and I hear my personal assistant Marian say,

"Sweetie can you follow me so I can get you some food?" Ame seemed to perk up at the sound of food. He immediately starts to follow her to the staff's lunch room with me follow close behind them. Marian quickly starts to get out her lunch before she turns to him and says,

"Are you allergic to anything?" Ame shrugs with a confused look on his face. Does he really not know if he is allergic to anything? How old was he when he was first sold? Did his parents sell him?

"Um we'll go on the safer side and just give you a salad how does that sound?" He just nods and goes back to staring at the wall. By the time Marian had placed the food in front of Ame he seemed to be lost in thought.

"Hey Ame you're going to have to eat, so stop staring off into space." I say and his head snaps over to me and then to the food and his eyes went wide which had me confused. He shook his head as if to say no about something I give him a stern look and tell him,

"You're going to eat as much of that as you can so start eating." He gives me one last look before he started eating the salad.

"So how am I supposed to get him to the doctors without him freaking out?" I ask Marian as Ame continues to eat. I hope he doesn't freak out when we leave the office.

"Nickolas with all do respect I'm not sure if it is a wise to keep him with you, it'd be best to just give him to social services so he can go into foster care." Did she not look at the file I handed her?

"He's eighteen he can't go into the system they don't put adults into the system." I say as I walk over to the coffee machine to get some caffeine this is going to be a very long day.

Ame's Pov

The tall brown haired man walked in front of me as he led me somewhere I think he said something about taking me somewhere to get me fixed up. I'm not sure where but I don't think it's anything like a homeless shelter. He doesn't seem to want to tell me where we're going and I'm very confused where could we be going that could help me?

"Hey kid, we're here." I look out the window to see a doctors office does he expect me to go in there? They'd be wasting their time and materials on someone as worthless as me.

"What's with that look?" The man asked and I just shrugged as we both got out of the car and started walking towards the busy building.

"Nickolas!! What a surprise I haven't seen you in forever!!" A man in a white coat says as we enter Nickolas nods and says,

"It has been awhile I was wondering if you could take a look at this kid and make sure everything is fine other than the fact that he's skinny as hell." The man nods and says to follow him as he leads us to what I believe is his office on the way there Nickolas and the doctor are talking.

"Okay Ame can you please hop up on the table?" I nod well sitting down on the table at the canter of the room. The doctor gives me a checkup before turning to Nickolas and saying,

"He's fine except for the fact that he is very malnourished but with a healthy diet he will be 100% in no time." After that Nickolas thanks him before we leave he said we'd be going to his house next I hope I don't get in the way of anything.
