Brent dared to reach over, tugging on the linen fabric of the prince’s sleeve, as though hesitating to touch his hand out of fear that it might be him crossing a line. His initial fear for his owner had turned into respect ever since he was granted the choice to leave and be free of harm. 

“Please, come with me then.”

“Come with you where? I need to be here for my people….At least till I find someone to take my place, I can not jsut leave, they will search for me day and night.” Axel explained to him as he lightly touched Brent’s face and kissed him softly. “Once I find someone to replace me…I promise we will leave together.” He whispered as he kissed him once more.
