Uriel woke up on his bed alone. His breathing hitched, and he went to clamber his way to get some clothes, hastily putting them on, and go looking for the prince.
He was so worried about what could have happened to him. Was he caught while he was sleeping? Did he turn himself into the palace? But..... But they made a promise......
They promised they would run away. What happened to that promise?
The boy had his first taste of betrayal.
Last night, his words were loud and clear, so sincere that one could only believe him. He cried while holding on to Uriel's arms as they spent a night of mutual ruin.
"Uriel..... I can't take it anymore.... I thought this is what I wanted...." He mumbled almost incoherently. "Hah... Hah... Uriel, I don't care if you abuse me all night and all day.... I want to escape this hole I have dug for myself.... Save me..."
