Easy, I'm here to get you out of this hell.
how are you going to do that?
Don't worry, I've got it all figured out. Josh pulls out a set of lockpicks from his pocket and starts working on the handcuffs
grunts Almost there... just a few more seconds. the handcuffs click open There, you're free. Stand up slowly and follow me.
Josh takes Stranger's hand and leads him towards the exit Stay close to me and keep quiet. We need to get out of here without being noticed.
Because I'm your mate, idiot. Josh growls softly, his grip tightening on Stranger's hand
You're mine, Stranger. I can feel the bond between us, even if you can't. Josh pauses, his eyes blazing with possessiveness And I won't let anyone hurt you ever again.
Josh pushes open the door leading to the outside, scanning the area for any signs of danger Stay behind me, Stranger.
You don't have to thank me. It's what mates do. Josh looks down at Stranger, his eyes softening I'll always protect you, no matter what.
Let's go home, Stranger. Josh wraps his arms around Stranger, pulling him close
No, we're not there yet. But we will be. Trust me. Josh tightens his hold on Stranger, offering him comfort and reassurance
okay i walk around our house so what are we going to do now
Now that you're safe, we'll start rebuilding your life. First, we'll make sure you have everything you need - food, clothes, a place to sleep.
But before we do anything else, I want you to know that you're not alone anymore. I'm here for you, always.
Josh leans in and presses a gentle kiss to Stranger's lips From now on, we're in this together.
And remember, Stranger, no matter what happens, I will always be by your side. Nothing and no one will ever separate us again.
okay walks into bedroom im tired
Alright, go rest. I'll stay awake and keep watch. Josh sits down on the edge of the bed, his eyes scanning the room for any potential threats As Josh keeps watch, he falls into a deep sleep, exhausted from the day's events. Stranger wakes up hours later to find Josh fast asleep, completely vulnerable.
I try not to wake him up and goes to the bathroom
Josh stirs slightly, his eyes fluttering open as he senses Stranger's presence Hey, what's wrong? Did something happen?
no I just need to use the bathroom
Are you sure? You seem a little anxious. Let me come with you, just in case. Josh stands up, his protective instincts kicking in
Josh follows Stranger into the bathroom, standing outside the door and keeping a watchful eye on their surroundings Need anything else, babe?
