Chapter 5

"We did it sir."

"Yes we did." Edgerton grinned at Charlie who by this time had lowered his head so he wouldn't have to face them again. The men laughed as Edgerton moved close to Charlie and place a hand on his shoulder.

Charlie struggled but was held down by to other men. "Now now Charlie that's no way to act to your lover." Charlie's eyes widen in fear and in shock as his anger grew.

"YOU ARE NOT MY--" a hand was placed firmly a crossed Charlie's month as one of the men bent down and whispered into Charlie's' ear.

"Hush you don't want to wake the boss do you?" Charlie looked confused as the man got a dangerous glare from Edgerton. When the man realized what he said he immediately apologized and let go of Charlie, allowing Charlie to move but not for long as a swift kick landed into his stomach. Charlie gasped in pain as he fell off the chair, tears slowly inching down his face. Edgerton moved down to him along with the other men as they began to pull and claw at Charlie's pants and flesh, it wasn't till the first man Don had spoken to snapped his fingers in a way that demanded a stop. Charlie gasped and breathed hard as he looked into the cold sea green eyes hidden beneath fire sun flared hair. The man himself was a catch to behold and look at Edgerton proved it.

"What is going on here?" The man asked quietly to the men.

They stuttered and dodged the question but Edgerton answered. "We we're going to show Charlie what would happen if he disobeyed you." The man smirked but only for a brief second when the answer was met by another question.

"What's with the camera equipment?"

One of the other men answered. "We sent a tape to Don and Alan." The leader eyes turned colder as he reached down and grabbed Charlie by his hair, and yanked hard. "Tell me why I was not told about this TAPE!" The man demanded.

Edgerton trying to get on the bosses good side answered again. "We had to make them see the consequences of knowing information Mr. Kweign." Kweign stopped and gave a slight growl before turning with Charlie in hand away.

Once out side the door he closed and locked it leaving his men in there till he returned. Kweign loosened his grip on Charlie's hair and allowed Charlie to walk, however if Charlie ever faltered Kweign would help him keep balance.

They reached a red and silver decorated room, Kweign allowed him to go in first and then followed just in time to catch Charlie from falling. Kweign got Charlie to the bed and laid him down.

"You have a fever." Kweign said with little concern, and little emotion. "What did they do to you?" Kweign questioned as he examined Charlie's wounds.

"Nothing…" Charlie gulped as Kweign look with the eyes of the devils at him to find the truth. "They… Edgerton…"

"So you do know him… hmmm. He lied." Kweign muttered under his breath. "No matter Charles, no one will touch you again. Alright, now excuse me I have to call your brother who is already in his meeting. Thank you." With that Kweign stepped outside as Charlie could hear running footsteps… and a voice, Charlie gasped as it was Edgerton.

Edgerton tried to apologize to Kweign but no such luck as Charlie heard the dialing of the phone.
