Kane was trying his best to settle with a month of being locked up.'It's just a month, anyway. After this, I can leave'' What harm can a month do to him, anyway? His team can handle themselves on their own. What's been bothering him is the storage, since he mentioned it, but he also knows that it's not something that can be easily taken by just anyone. Everyone on his team, including Stan, Ven, and Marco, will fight to the death to protect that.He sighed and looked outside the window while thinking. What he needed to do now was to avoid King, since he wasn't getting any information from him anyway, and it only made his blood boil every time he sees him. He locked himself up in his room, planning to only come out when he got hungry.His mind was still preoccupied by the thought of King saying "I care for you". How can someone as merciless as King even care? He couldn't help but laugh at the absurdity - was "caring really part of King's system, part of his vocabulary?It was almost dawn, but he had planned to only go out by midnight, when he was sure King was asleep. But it seemed like that wasn't going to happen."Kane"King opened the door and it made a creaking sound. He immediate glared at King, he wants him out and he doesn't want to talk to him."You have to eat now, we'll watch a movie later"He immediately turned to King after hearing that. Movie? So he has a CD or a flashdrive? He sighed in relief. Finally, he won't be bored to death.He silently passed by King and walked towards the dining table. Without a word, he just started eating.He saw King setting up the TV, he had a couple of CD and they were atop the table in the living room.He quickly finished his meal and washed his dishes. He let out a frustrated "tsk" when he heard King lightly laughing at him rushing. He ignored King and was about to sit on the single-seater sofa because he didn't want to sit beside King, who was occupying the center of the long sofa."Sit here with me," King said, tapping the space beside him. Kane glared at him, he was planning to ignore him when King spoke up again. "I'll give you a phone tomorrow, just sit here with me."Kane quickly sat down beside King, but still kept some distance. Well, King didn't say he'd give his phone back; he only said he'd give him a phone. But that was enough for Kane; he'd take whatever he could get.King smiled. "What do you want to watch, Kane?""Anything action or thriller"Since King's glad that Kane's talking to him without being sarcastic, he's smiling as he reached for a CD and played 'fast and furious'.Unbeknownst to King, Kane was actually excited. It was one of his little happiness to watch a movie and chill. It's been a long time since he did this because he's always busy.Well, his life was always full of colors. He paints a lot. He's not lying when he said there's no secret, it's all hard work. It was a rough path and he's doing that together with his dirty little tricks.Kane was enjoying the movie. It was the climax and he's totally into it but then a he felt something fell on the edge of his shoulder.He's pretty sure it's King and he wants to push him off and ignore him so he can focus on watching– but he just can't.He feels the heat of King's heavy breathing.He no longer needed to touch King's forehead to know that he still had a fever.Thinking about it, King hadn't even taken any medicine. Because of that thought, he didn't push him off but he didn't do anything either.He finished the movie first and while the cast and credits were rolling on the screen, he glanced at King. He was still sleeping soundly and his head was still leaning on his shoulder.Since he can't get up and turn off the TV in that position, he pushed King's head off a little and fixed King's position on the sofa.He turned off the TV and stared at the sleeping King.So much caring for a monster.His mind was reminding him and sending him warnings but his body won't listen to his mind.Instead of leaving King at the sofa like that, he covered him with a comforter and he went searching for medicine.He already searched everywhere but he can't find anything. Just as he thought there's really nothing, he tried to look at the cabinet next to his bed and there it is–there are several tablets there.He went back to the living room. King was basically shaking in his sleep and he's burning with fever.Even reluctant, he tried waking him up by shaking him."Wake up" he pressed the back of his hand on King's neck and it is burning hot, making him frown. "Wake up, moron" He called out louder because King still hadn't woken up.Shivering, King slowly opened his eyes. Those eyes again - those amber eyes were fully visible, but they looked weak. Kane avoided his gaze. It was clear that King was still feeling weak, and Kane couldn't bring himself to leave, no matter how many times his mind told him that the person in front of him was a monster.His mind was telling him to take advantage of the situation - wasn't that what he wanted? To see King devastated? But he couldn't seem to move his feet away."Drink your medicine, you can't die yet. I still have a lot of plan to make you suffer."He then handed him a glass of water and a tablet. Really so much caring for a monster.King didn't say anything. Kane don't know what's running on King's head but he'd rather not know. King just did what is asked of him to do and slept once again afterwards.Kane sighed once again, looks like he has to take care of the fucker for a while. It's just a month anyway, just let it be for a month.He kneeled down to level King's head and stared at him. His eyes were closed. Those amber eyes are hidden so Kane can endure and stare for a longer time.He's questioning himself all these time. If in this state, he can't find pleasure seeing King weak, then it wouldn't really please him to see King suffer.All he ever wanted as of the moment was to avenge what happened to him and his family. He wants to take back what was stolen from him–from them. He can't do anything anymore because he can't bring them back. He has always been mad all these years and all he wanted was to shatter the man in front of him.But seeing him right now in weak state like this– burning with fever and full of bruises, he doesn't know if all these years, he's just wasting time. To him, it even seems like he can't hurt King anymore, because the latter doesn't even care. He looks lifeless as it is and there's nothing more he could do that can hurt him."If I can't hurt you like that, I'll just take everything you have until you're left with nothing." I'll bring life to those lifeless eyes and then I'll take it back afterwards.He carefully lift the hem of King's shirt and removed it. He winced after seeing his body worn out.Now that he doesn't have any shirt on, he can see how badly beaten up King is. At this point, he's sure he's not the one who did all that. King's s already beaten up before even showing himself in front of him.He removed all his clothes and just left him with his boxers. King has a great body physique, he's well built but his body can't handle too much. How can I not even notice him flinching and wincing everytime he moves?He heated up some water, soaked a cloth, and gently cleaned King's body. He carefully took care of King as if he wasn't the villain in his mind.Much to his discomfort, he has to clean King's whole body– that includes his legs, his thigh, even that area near his groin, his stomach, arms–and he kept on gulping everytime until he reached King's face and he stared at it for a while. King's eyes were definitely dazzling and Kane hate seeing it specially with his empty gazes but the face of the man even with his eyes closed is a sight to behold.He looked away, his cheeks were burning.He did what he had to do carefully and quickly without staring at him and then he changed his clothes. King's still burning with fever so he fixed him with a comforter and a piece of cloth atop his forehead before leaving and going back to his own room to sleep.
