The Dagger's Rose || l.s (completed)

Hi :)

I wanted to make first few chapters very dark but I ended up writing cheesy conversation between two people who are really in an odd situation. But yeah, whatever, here we are.
PS : The pic above is representing me thinking about this

One week later.....

Harry couldn't see anything. It was all dark. He was sitting in the same position for four days. No food, no water. He thought he was going to die. He didn't know what day of the week it was and hoped that certain someone would show up soon, someone who can save him from this misery. And he was definitely not thinking about his parents. He didn't even remember them. He could only think of the blue eyed boy who he thought would actually release him from this bondage.

He couldn't even think straight. His stomach had died probably after intense rumbling for food. This was how it felt like to be kidnapped, being trapped as a hostage. William was actually showing mercy on him.

Harry probably fell asleep.

Next morning.

"Harry, what the fuck? Are you okay? Jesus! what did they do to you? You look so weak and tired. They starved you didn't they? I'm going to kill them all!" Harry woke up to the sound of a familiar voice. He felt better even though he couldn't figure out if it was his hallucination or reality.

"Hi" he managed to say as the cloth in mouth was removed. Soon, his hands and legs were free.

He suddenly felt embraced by strong arms so tightly around him that he could probably disappear into them but not tight enough to choke him to death. He felt good. He could feel William's heart beating loud and him constantly saying "I'm sorry".

William took a bottle of water from his bag and gave it to Harry.

"I've got some food, my nan made for me. I'm so sorry, I can't see you like this", his eyes were shining too much, probably it was the water pool formed at the bottom edge, Harry could see it.

He gave Harry his food and water and went out in anger.

Harry felt a little better after having something for the first time in last four days. It felt like ten or fifteen minutes as he heard a loud thud outside the room. William was obviously beating someone up wildly. He was screaming. "I'm sorry but boss told me not to give him food for few days. He wanted to show the boy's parents how miserable he looked here. I swear to god I couldn't help it, I'm sorry", the other person was pleading.

William came to Harry after some time, his cheeks red and eyes dark. He looked like he could tear someone apart by just staring at them.

As he stared at Harry, his eyes softened slowly. He gave a weak smile.
"I'm sorry", he said genuinely.

Harry opened his mouth to say something and suddenly he heard the sound of a car. William's eyes widened. He knew it was the boss.

The boss arrived to the room Harry was kept in, along with the boy who was beaten up by William. He had got a black eye and a lot of red scars on his face. William can actually be a Beast when he wants to be.

"Are we handling some charity case here?" The boss asked William pointing at Harry.

"You want me to starve him to death? I don't want to be the part of it if you're planning his murder, nor will I let it happen!", William said harshly.

Harry was surprised, not just because William stood up for him, but because William did it against his boss.

"You weren't even willing to do this job in first place but now we're here. But you still managed to boss around when I was not here, didn't you? I really don't appreciate it", boss said with a smirk.
