At midnight, Axel brought Daren back to the mansion. He carried the Omega's body to his room. Daren kept his face buried in the Alpha's broad chest, still terrified of what had just happened.
"We're here, you can rest now," Axel said, sitting him on the bed.
He knelt down, removed Daren's shoes and laid the man's body down.
"Rest, you don't have to worry about anything. I'm sure he won't dare sue you for this. And I'll make sure you don't meet anyone like him again," he said as he rubbed Daren's head.
Just as he was about to leave to sit on the chair where he usually waited by the door, Daren caught Axel's wrist and asked him to sit next to him.
"Can you stay here with me? I don't want to be alone," Daren pleaded as he took the man's hand.
Seeing how scared and pleading Daren still looked, Axel couldn't leave him alone. He then sat on the edge of the bed and rubbed the Omega's head with his large, warm hands.
