Charmaine woke in the middle of the night and sat up. He pulled his knees to his chest and let out a sigh. He could hear the older male in the room across the hall. 'I just want to go home..' he thought and allowed small tears down his face. He usually wasn't the one to cry but this put him in shock. It hurt to be ripped from his family and hostage to a total stranger.85Please respect copyright.PENANARhFlftMYCn

Selene stood and grabbed a jacket plus a couple of changes of clothes then headed to see the black haired male. He unlocked the door and stepped inside, looking at the younger male with a calm and soft expression. "You're up late," he said softly, walking over and holding out the jacket. "Something on your mind?" he asked.85Please respect copyright.PENANAFLfwjLP1dY
85Please respect copyright.PENANAdhGYGWzxT0
He looked up at him with a cold glare. "No shit, bitch," he said coldly then took the jacket, putting it on. He sounded upset but his tone portraying otherwise. "What else would be on my mind? I dont want to be here, bitch," he said and looked away from him.85Please respect copyright.PENANA1aZVvskFc7

Selene's expression hardened as he grabbed his chin and looked him in the eyes. "You want to repeat yesterday?" he asked bitterly. His eyes were cold and he was serious. "Or maybe I should get more violent with you, hm?" he asked. 85Please respect copyright.PENANA8q5QH7pUvU
85Please respect copyright.PENANAYv0GPKHgaW
Charmaine froze up and trembled slightly. "N-no.." he stuttered out helplessly. His eyes were full of fear and his chest tightened greatly. He was scared once more. It hurt him deeply. 85Please respect copyright.PENANA0cjZCGL1Rp
85Please respect copyright.PENANAxa6z9rZe5I
Selene let him go and nodded. He walked over to the closet and put the clothes away. "Get some sleep. I'll have some rules set and ready for you tomorrow," he said. He hung the clothes up and then turned to him with a faint slight smile. 85Please respect copyright.PENANANSraGxCZzm
85Please respect copyright.PENANAFPMeO7xVDn
The younger male laid down and quickly went to sleep. He trembled and he felt cold as he curled up and slept through the night.85Please respect copyright.PENANATJxnrxuZlp
85Please respect copyright.PENANAzsHkqRL0es
The next morning he woke to the sound of pure quietness. He sat up, got out of bed and headed to take a shower and change. He finished all that, made up his bed and sat on the edge, waiting on the male to come and get him to tell him the rules.85Please respect copyright.PENANAO7XJkPRouA
85Please respect copyright.PENANAnRpKtAVnVi
It seemed like hours before the male finally came to see him. He walked in and looked at him. He was holding a small child in his arms. "Good morning, Charmaine. Sleep well?" he said and asked with the calmest and softest tone, like nothing happened the night before.85Please respect copyright.PENANAPtX5pdmf6I
85Please respect copyright.PENANAehWO8Kqwvz
Charmaine nodded and looked at him with a slight smile. He was still very much afraid of the male but he decided to hide it. "I slept well.. Thanks for asking.." he said in a very quiet tone.85Please respect copyright.PENANAAKaKRew1Uo
85Please respect copyright.PENANAvGBEMe5lLr
The vampire nodded with a smile. "Well that's good. Now, listen up. From today on forward you'll have rules and boundaries to follow. I found this child outside my front door. I'm holding you responsible to take care of this child which means that you can leave the room for only those purposes. Understand?" he stated and asked.85Please respect copyright.PENANAhTbxaHAIjd
85Please respect copyright.PENANAQsDqITDqkF
He nodded with a smile. He was still hesitant. "I understand but I have a question.." he said with a small smile on his face. He was glad he was finally no longer confined in this small room he was put in. His hopes were high towards this open-ended opportunity.85Please respect copyright.PENANANB3SbOTMQ3
85Please respect copyright.PENANAMwxvapN03g
"That is?" he asked with a light, half-hearted tone. His eyes showed a warming, slight dangerous glint to them. He looked lustful towards the younger male. It was very dangerous to leave him alone with anyone when his lust and hunger for blood took over.85Please respect copyright.PENANA6poclXAwhv
85Please respect copyright.PENANAxyXTmr9NEl
Charmaine shifted a bit before looking at him. "W-well, if any chance that I lose this kid, what would be the punishment be and what is the punishment for breaking the rules?" he asked sweetly, his eyes glassy with no more fear.85Please respect copyright.PENANAUOtMe9cGKh
85Please respect copyright.PENANAUeeAK3CjHr
Selene thought for a moment and then let out a low chuckle, making the other look down quickly. He set the child on the bed then lifted the others face, looking into his eyes. "I'll surprise you, darlin~" he said into his ear.85Please respect copyright.PENANAwD9QDVOMMD
85Please respect copyright.PENANAZMClh2IXV8
He blushed lightly and nodded faintly. He liked and enjoyed being teased. It was a exciting feeling. It made his heart skip a beat. Overall, it made him feel wanted. Loved. Cared about. Special. He longed for that feeling. The feeling of love and care. 'Maybe this will work out just fine.. I just need to cooperate with him..' he thought and smiled at him.85Please respect copyright.PENANAr3lBM1aWgT
85Please respect copyright.PENANAaPzLFqjMOh
The vampire let go of his face and took a step back. "You can start today, darling. We'll briefly discuss rules during breakfast. I expect you to look presentable in 30 minutes alongside the kid. Sounds fair?" he said and asked with a strict and calming tone.85Please respect copyright.PENANAXt1UoJJfYX
85Please respect copyright.PENANAl3eBvHSkGf
He nodded. "Yes, of course, sir! I'll get right to it," he said with a bright smile as he looked at him. He was grateful for the opportunity for this.85Please respect copyright.PENANAkKtV3Ghuk3

Selene left the room and went to the kitchen to start on dinner. He was cooking a great meal for the three of them to eat. He had light, calming music playing in the background as he cooked and sung along. Regardless of the music, he still longed for blood. His hunger for it still hadn't left him and he knew that human food would not suffice his thirst for blood.85Please respect copyright.PENANATmlkv75p0U
85Please respect copyright.PENANAKPLVV91Cg4
Charmaine went into the closet and grabbed a white button-up shirt with a black blazer and a short black skirt. He changed into it quickly and then grabbed a rainbow hoodie, red shirt and shorts for the kid. He walked over and held the clothes out. "Dont be scared little one. Im not going to hurt you. What's your name?" he said and asked in a gentle tone.85Please respect copyright.PENANA4KhoWE4PWG
85Please respect copyright.PENANAaLBVT8BQPg
The small boy looked at him nervously and still very much afraid. "L-lucas.." he said in a soft, fearful tone. He eventually took the clothes and changed into them.85Please respect copyright.PENANAxSVRvUzZL9
85Please respect copyright.PENANAN6GVs9tyk8
He nodded and smiled. "Lucas, i'm Charmaine. I'll be taking care of you from this point on forward," he said with a smile.85Please respect copyright.PENANAAPq1ILB5bK
85Please respect copyright.PENANAo7K3Lz3pdu
Lucas nodded with a smile as well and then let out a small groan. "I-i'm hungry, mister.." he said as his stomach rumbled. 85Please respect copyright.PENANAVkVsNZoVWo
85Please respect copyright.PENANAWJEPpBVwcQ
After 30 minutes, Charmaine took Lucas by the hand and led him downstairs. He walked into the living room and set him down at the table then went to the bathroom to fix his shirt collar. He fixed it quickly and then went to join him at the table.85Please respect copyright.PENANAA6IkQcFVQR
