After the first night, Draco had come back every night, paying double so he could stay until the morning. He sat on the bed, when Harry immediately ran to the corner of the room when he saw Draco and curled up in a ball hiding his face.
They just sat in silence. Draco staring at Harry's figure, after a while, they would fall asleep. Draco on the bed and Harry in the corner, and Clifford would wake Draco in the morning.
And here he was, like the other nights, sitting on the bed and staring at Harry. He had tried to speak to Harry, but Harry never answered him. When he tried to touch him, Harry would run and act like a frightened animal. He never tried to touch Harry again after that.
As he looked at Harry's figure, he couldn't help but feel pain in his heart. He had to get Harry out from this place. With that though, he got up from the bed and came out from the room. He made his way to the receptionist and called for Clifford.
"Mister Malfoy, how can I help you?" Clifford asked.
"How much do I have to pay to free Harry?" Draco asked, and demanded that the old man better tell him how much he wanted and not to refuse.
Clifford smirked, not shocked for many customers had asked the same thing, but he just put on a very high price so no one could buy Harry. "My… I'm afraid to say the price. He's very expensive, he's our star after all" he raised an eyebrow to challenge Draco.
Draco narrowed his eyes at the older man. Making Clifford wince, but he was hiding it well. Without a word, Draco turned and made his way back to Harry's room. Opening his suitcase, he pulled out a checkbook, and went back to Clifford.
The old man silently crossed his finger behind his back and hiding a smirk.
He nearly fainted when Draco wrote the number of money and shoved it in front of his face; 10 million dollars!
"Is that enough?" Draco asked him in an irritated tone.
Clifford blinked and exhaled his breath, and nodded dumbly. "Ye… Yes! Of Course! It's more than enough! You could buy everyone here to with that amount of money!" he stuttered and shakily opened the receptionist's desk's drawer.
He rummaged through a pile of papers and pulled out the one him searching for.
He signed the paper and handed it to Draco. Draco read the paper before he nodded and signed it too. "When can I take him with me?" he said as he put the check book in his shirt pocket.
Clifford eyed the check with unblinking eyes "Anytime. You can even take him now".
Draco smiled, satisfied "Good, I will take him right now."
Before Draco could turn, Clifford spoke "One thing, Mister Malfoy" Draco looked at him, obviously want to get Harry out from Harry as soon as possible.
"What?"
Clifford smiled, clutching the check protectively against his wrinkled hands. "I suggest you keep him away from any sharp objects, and you better keep an eye on him every single minute." Draco eyed him with confusion on his face. Clifford's smile got bigger, making Draco wanted to punch his face "You will understand later"
Draco, confused, just nodded and turned to back at Harry's room. He stopped midway and turned his head slightly at Clifford. "I have something to ask"
Clifford tore his eyes from the check in his hands and turn to Draco. "Yes, what question?" he flinched when Draco gave him a piercing gaze.
"How did Harry end up in place like this?"
Clifford blinked before he shrugged his shoulder "Oh… His uncle was the one who sold him here. He said that the boy has cost him fortune and caused trouble."
