A/N: Um...Arthur is REALLY dark in this one. OOC-NESS.
chapter7
Arthur pushed Merlin down to sit on the couch then walked over to the small black lazy chair as he pulled his blazer off. He missed the frightened look in Merlin's eyes as the younger man's sea-blue orbs trailed around the huge living room. He missed it, but he knew it was there.
"Would you like a drink?" The blond offered suddenly.
Merlin was too busy looking towards the open window and at the door all the way at the end of the large living room.
"Hey!"
Merlin blinked and turned back with even larger eyes.
"Drink?" Arthur offered again.
Merlin gulped loudly, his throat suddenly seeming dry. He blinked once more as thought came to mind. Arthur wasn't holding him anymore, yes, but in order to actually have a chance Arthur would have to be away from reach, where he wouldn't realize what happened until it was too late.
Merlin nodded trembling.
Arthur hummed, then suddenly gave a smile as he eyed the thin body on his couch, that scared Merlin even more. The blond looked hungry... but not for food.
Merlin leaned back in the couch as Arthur walked over to him. Merlin gasped and flinched more back when Arthur ran a hand over his cheek.
"I'll be back." Arthur whispered lustful.
Merlin gave something close to a whimper and a mew, and when he felt Arthur's hand leave, he reopened his eyes to see the blond waking towards a double door. Merlin gulped nervously again and cursed when his feet decided to become useless when he tried to move. Merlin bit his bottom lip then used his hands to push himself up. His eyes never left the double doors as he took steps backwards towards the door that led outside. He heard the sound of the champagne open and Merlin flinched at the thought that Arthur would be out any second.
Merlin bolted for the door.
"Hey Merlin..."
Merlin looked behind him to see Arthur staring shocked. The blond dropped the bottle of champagne carelessly onto the clean tiled floor then quickly ran after the younger man.
Merlin pulled the door open and was able to take two steps out before his arm was grabbed harshly. The thought to scream out came to late and before he could get even a breath out, he was pulled back and inside the mansion.
Merlin sobbed when he was pushed against a wall so he was facing Arthur, the blond's hand at Merlin's throat.
"Do you seriously want to play with Cenred's life?"
Merlin gasped for a breath to speak with but Arthur's fingers lowered his attempts. "Arthur ple-"
"Shut up!" The royal blue eyes suddenly turned dark, almost navy blue. "What did you think you'd do if you escaped?" Arthur said low. "Huh! Did you think that you could run to the cops? Tell them how I kidnapped you? Because remember, you got inside my car all by yourself, I never forced you."
Merlin sniff. "You... forced... me in... here." He said between needed breaths. He inhaled a deep breath then spoke in a lower tone because his vision was getting blurrier by the second. "You... plan to... force me... to do something... else...too.." He shut his eyes and dug his nails inside the hand around his throat while the other hand grabbed Arthur's white button shirt. "Can't breathe." He rasped. His feet moved under him desperately trying to get even the slightest distance for the tiniest bit of air.
Arthur's brows narrowed and he only watched. "Let this be a lesson to you. Not only can I bring you on the brink of death, I can send that husband of yours to his death."
Merlin's eyes widen as he realize the meaning in Arthur's words. "Arthur...?"
The blond nodded once confirming Merlin's thoughts.
Merlin's eyes trailed the blond's features. "Arthur dont...Please?"
Arthur brought their faces close. "You'll be fine once you wake again." He whispered. Then his lips were on Merlin's. He made sure to leave his lips linger there for a few seconds. It was his first taste and already he knew he was addicted to Merlin's sweetness. Arthur pulled away slowly when he felt the thin body go limp. He pulled back slightly. When Merlin fell in his arms, his eyes shut in sleep, Arthur smiled satisfied and ran his fingers through the raven dark hair, his lips close to Merlin's cheek.
"You're so beautiful."
