Their Pet (MxM)

Chapter 8: A friend?

"Okay, so why should I go back? Why do you even care?" I asked, hoping he would let go of me.

He just sighed. "Truthfully, I don't. But they'll give me a raise if I catch you... so..."

An idea popped into my head. "What f I double the amount they're paying you? Huh? Huh?"

He raised a brow. "Didn't you sign a contract for money?"

My jaw dropped. "How do you know that?!" I asked, shocked. He just laughed. "Come on. I know at least that much."

I rolled my eyes. "Yup. Pitiful. I know." He stopped laughing. "Well, I mean, why did you need so much money anyway?"

I just shrugged. "Drugs?"

"Liar."

"How would you know if I'm lying?" I asked.

He raised a brow. "You're not the type. You seem like a sheltered child."

I glared at him. "I'm NOT a child!"

He nodded. "Mhm. Whatever you say." I just ignored his reply. "But what if I do get the money?" I asked, glancing up at him curiously. His lip twitches. "Then sure. I guess. But still. They'll seriously kill me if I don't bring you back."

I jumped up. "Good! I'll have the money ready!"

He chuckled at my excited look. "As I said before, I'm sorry. But I mean, that house could be good for you."

I practically snarled at his words. "No it's not! I'm forced to act like them! I hate it! They restrict me, and I have no freedom!"

He sighed. "You know what... fine."

My eyes widened as he let go of me.

"You're.... really letting me go?"

He nodded. "I feel sorry for you. But mark my words, if those guys catch you, they'll be even more uptight than before! Also, there's a train station a few miles away. Just keep walking South. And here, I'll give you enough for the fare."

My eyes almost welled up with tears. "Thanks... Arc. Thank you so much!"

He smiled at me before running off.

"Wait..... which way's south?"

"So? Where is he?" Cain asked, his eyes studying Arc. Arc shrugged. "I couldn't find him."

Cain rubbed his temples. "Seriously? He got away?"

Arc nodded. "I'm sorry."

Cain just shook his head. "Don't worry. I have someone much more... capable."

Arc's eye twitch. "Alright. Well, I'm gonna get going." Cain nodded as he walked out.

Arc quickly walked out. "They're gonna call Jasper...." He realized, his eyes widening.

"Yeah he is. I'm surprised you didn't find him. Well, if it's Jasper, then I wouldn't be too worried. But I am certainly pissed."

Arc's eyes shifted. "Ah. Hi Chase."

Chase grinned, despite his dark eyes evidently piercing Arc. "Hmm..... where could he have gone?"

Arc shrugged. "Couldn't find him, though."

Chase laughed. "None of us believe you, Arc. We know you let him go. But don't worry, we'll prove it to you, and you'll get what's coming to you."

Arc paused. "Tell me.... why are you all so.... infatuated with him? Isn't he just a regular boy?"

Chase laughed. "No. He's different. He's unlike the rest. I need him. We, need him."

Arc shook his head. "I don't understand. What's so special?"

"Everyone we've had.... had always been so.... submissive. But not him. Even though we're the one's paying him, he still puts up at fight. It's honestly.... intriguing. But the funny thing is... when he is submissive, it's not boring. It's fun. I don't know why."

Arc's expression changed as he backed away. These people were set on him, no matter what.

"Well, see you later. I have more work." He excused, hoping he could warn Cody.

"Mhm. See ya."

I shifted, uncomfortable with all the attention I seemed to be getting. I was currently in a hot dog suit, waiting for my stop. And no, I couldn't take it off. People would probably glare if they saw me in such indecent clothes.

"Nice..... suit." Somebody commented. I turned and smiled, even though they couldn't see it. "Thanks."

By now, things were getting extremely awkward. And just waiting for my stop was agonizing.

Until finally, by stop was announced. I sighed in relief as I scooted away from everyone around me, and walked off the train.

I was home! In my city, at least. And that was better than nothing, I guess.

I walked out, my heart thumping as I wandered the city. I thought about how the suit would give me away, but what I had under would probably beg for attention, so it was better in the boy do costume. Plus, I didn't have money.

So all I could do was try my best to get home. But I've been gone for a while, would everything still be there? Or would I have to contact a friend?

My eyes lit up. "That's it!" I shouted, quite randomly.

I grinned as I exited the station, thinking about my plans in my head.

I was finally getting away from those maniacs!
