Walking around the streets of London was extremely risky for a younger woman (sorry if you're male). Especially at night.
Y/N'S POV
It was 9pm, none on the streets, I walked along the pier, looking at the beautiful ocean.
"I wish all nights could be like this... It's so peaceful.." Not liking people very much, she stayed for a while, sitting on a wooden bench until hearing something.
"Hey pretty lady... Want to come with us for a while?" One of the men said, he looked old, with ragged clothes and grey hair
"Yes wouldn't that be grand..." Another one laughed at me, I backed off, feeling very uncomfortable.
"No... No I must be going.. I have places to be..." I stuttered, slowly walking back when the first man grabbed my arm.
"Get off me! You have no right! Let me go!"
"Like you have anyone to go back to... We've been watching you for a while girl." A tear falls down my cheeks.
He was right.. My mother had died a couple days before, and my father had committed suicide just after, I had no one...
"LEAVE ME ALONE!" Tears fell like a waterfall down my face, not knowing what to do, I kicked him in the stomach and ran
"YOU LITTLE BITCH GET BACK HERE!" They chased me for what felt like hours.. I looked behind my shoulder, they had gone...
"Are you okay Ma'am?" A tall, muscular man stood in front of me, I can't lie, I had to stand and stare at him, he was very handsome, his eyes were beautiful... Golden and unusual, with black rimmed glasses around them; a strand of raven hair fell over his face, the same colour as his stunning suit.
"Yes! Yes I am. Sorry I'm a bit flustered from running!" I didn't lie to him about running.
"Yes I know. They won't run after you again... Trust me." He gave a smile but I was confused.
"How did you know?"
"I saw them and you screaming.. I couldn't let a dear lady as pretty as you get hurt..."
He pulled his hair off of his face and offered a gloved hand.
"Come on. You can sleep at my masters house. It's too late for you to go home."
I stood in disbelieve, he didn't know me but showed that much kindness to let me stay with him.
"T-thank you... may I ask for your name?"
"Claude. Claude Faustus"
