The Puppeteer Part 3

The Puppeteer: For the better

William had never dared to sacrifice him before.. Even he seems like he did before it was never this direct.. This time with full consent, he agreed to led the boy into his death..

Zylen cannot help but to questioned his decision to himself. His baby in his arms suddenly push the milk away and started crying. Zylen hush him slowly and positioned his head on his shoulder.

That is the answer.. because William have his baby.. he already had a replacement of him.

So finally William has made his decision to not hesitate to use the baby.. Zylen kiss his baby's head and hug him close. He is not ready to be separated from his son.. who know when will be the last time he could be with him.. Even worse.. Zylen knew what William is going to do to his son. It scared Zylen to death to think about it, but the reason he remained calm has still manage to fool William to let him spend time with his son. Because he seems drowned in despair, not attempting to resist, let alone to struggle William doesn't see any threat, which works perfectly in Zylen's favour. This is exactly what he need, to buy himself some time. He planted another kiss and pat his son on his back slowly.

Along this period, he has not been starved.. he ate all the human remains he was told to ..For the video so he do have some energy he needed. And to his surprise, he has learnt that he is able to stand on his own, and slowly making progress to walk. Now all he just need need to set other preparations in place. He pat his son slowly in eye filled of regret.

He must safe his son.. Even he was left with no choice..

..I'm sorry baby..

"What have you done.. Zylen?"

William froze in his spot "How did you get out?" He found Zylen sitting by the chimney in the living room. He was sure he locked the door, he even chained him, how did he free himself from the basement?

He walk closer, slowly, already fearing the threats Zylen could impose. He know how capable Zylen is, but it's not easy for the boy to reveal this side of him and why now of all moments. The closer he walked, the foul smell of burnt meat became stronger and stronger, he realised Zylen had burn something, he immediately push Zylen from his way and pull what seems to be fabric from the fire.

It was the towel they use to wrap his baby..

"What have you done Zylen..?" William was shocked. He turn to Zylen and only saw him staring into the fire. "Zylen what the fuck have you done huh!!!?" He yanked the blond by his collar and shakes him like a rag doll "Where is it!!? Where's did you put your baby!!!?" He yelled down like a madman. Realising his plan is screwed and his future income is disturbed, it truly shook the whole ground he is standing. For the first time in so many years of enslavement, Zylen saw William that way, he never even know he is capable of making such face. "Answer me!! Where the fuck is he!!?" Zylen did not answer him, he just stare pass him, directly at the fireplace.

His reaction makes William realise the grave reality of the situation, he let go of Zylen, letting him fell like a rag doll. He turn to look back with awful feelings in his chest as he watch the chimney, then he turn to his slave "you've lost your mind Zylen.." he cupped his head as he walk in circle "Fuck.. Fuck!! You've ruin everything!!" He is already covered by cold sweat "this isn't happening.. this can't be happening" He told himself. The way he glare towards Zylen was inhumane and the boy need to pay the price. He would take and take as usual right?

———————————————————————————

The noise Zylen make is a startled, half strangled gasp when William yank the chain connected to his neck. He is heaving hard in his sweat, unable to move as he was chained all over. He choked out another cry when a blade planted into another spot on his skin, slicing him open, there is already uncountable similar marks all over him. To make it even more agonising, William burn the blade after each slice. Listening to how Zylen whimpered "Do you still remember, how does it feels like when I throw you into the chimney? You do remember how agonising it was didn't you?" He put off his lighter, then slowly lowered to the blade to slice another part "no..no..no..please don't" he slowly shake his head with tears all over his face. When it touch his skin, he found himself in another round of screaming.

——

"Where did you put him Zylen? You know you can't hide anything from me.." The young slave shakes his head "Maybe a few more rounds could help ya juggle yer memories hm?" Then he splash the hot water all over him. His screaming and crying filled the entire bathroom. When William is done for the day Zylen had second degree burn eighty percent of his entire body.

——

"You think you can play this game forever huh!!? You think I won't kill you don't you? I'll make you talk!!  You hear me!!" He shakes and shakes the poor boy, drowning him again and again in the bathtub. His gasps and choked filled the toilet when he fight for surface or when William allowed him to. He whimpered when William hold him to the wall "I won't stop until you speak.." each words was filled with hatred.

——

"I killed him William! Because I know.. I know..y-you will hu-hurt him!!" He finally yelled it out when William is burying him alive. William froze

"Is that so?"
