Noah sobbed for at least a few hours, this was way too painful for him. He wanted to fix this, he truly did but he didn't know how to fix it. He tried taking deep breaths but nothing helped, he finally cried himself to sleep.

As the few hours went by, Auki finally opens his eyes as he then felt something heavy on his neck and wrist. But his eye sight was blocked by a blindfold. He yelled out. "Hey! I shall to whoever, let me go!" What he can feel is that he's up Agathe wall, moving his neck made him winced the chain around it was choking him if he moved away. His ears twitched as he heard footsteps. "What a lost little, boy. No one will save you, Richard. Not even that wuss of a man." His body immediately froze when he heard that voice. He hasn't heard of it since he escaped, the guy he was sold to.

Isaac finally got to the building after hours of searching, thanks to Auki. He went in and went up to the penthouse were everyone didn't dare to go up to. He went to Rey's room and smiled when he saw him. "Rey!" He jumped up on the bed and snuggled up next to him.

Noah woke up a few hours later and decided to walk around the city. He figured Auki was at his penthouse, he got up and locked the apartment door before going for a walk he heard a voice in the alleyway. He stopped and went behind a building so he couldn't be seen. "Auki… what have you gotten yourself into?" He muttered and watched his boss be in chains. It broke him, seeing him like this. He grind his teeth, he wanted to kill this person. There wasn't much time for him to think, he got out his knives and ran over to the guy and stabbed him. He should have never left himself vulnerable. "Auki!" His knives were sharp enough to cut through the chains and the cuffs on the wrists. He took his time trying to cut off the collar. Luckily the metal wasn't as good as his own collar and was able to bend it. "This will be painful." He used all his strength and got the collar off Auki. The edges of the metal collar nipped the neck. After it was off, Noah grabbed his boss and ran away in the busy streets.

Rey was playing on his phone when he heard Isaac voice, "Isaac." As he felt the other getting inside the bed as he turned over to take him in his arms when he felt Isaac snuggled up against him.

The man was about to speak when he was suddenly stabbed in his side, which he grunts as he escapes. "Noah?" Auki heard Noah's voice as he felt the chains on him get released. He yelled out in pain from the collar digging into his neck as Noah got it off him. He held on to Noah as he was taken away from the alleyway. "I should have paid attention..." He was still blindfolded.

Noah had no idea where to take Auki, he heard his boss say something and responded. "Paid attention to what?" He ran over to the building, he was greeted by Jack. "Hey Noah!" But Noah ignored him, he went straight to the penthouse and rested Auki on the couch before taking off his blindfold. He ran up to Isaac's room and noticed he wasn't in there, he then checked Rey's room and noticed Isaac was cuddling with him. He groaned, "No sex! And leave this door open!" He walked downstairs and checked on Auki. "That guy didn't do anything to you? Did he?" He was worried about Auki, he hated this.

Auki groans as he felt a cushion underneath him, "My surroundings." He answered. Rey rolled his eyes at Noah. "We know!" Rey just cuddles in more against Isaac as he closes his eyes. Auki was glad that the blindfold was off as he sits up, putting his hand on his neck. He heard the worry tone of Noah. "He used to. But no. Also do you want that collar on your neck?" He didn't look up as he stares at the floor.

Noah sighed and was thankful that the guy didn't do anything to Auki. He sat down on the couch next to Auki, he was still a bit unsure about this. He was still hurting. "I-" He stopped to think about the question Auki gave him, he couldn't help but smile. "I like it." He spoke softly and quietly, he took a deep breath. He wasn't exactly comfortable with touching Auki quite yet but his loyalty and trust slowly came back to him, but it would take some time to fully trust Auki again.

Auki kept looking down as he covers his eyes, actually Noah should have kept the blindfolds on. He sighs at what Noah said. He didn't do anything as they both were hitting on the couch with being so near yet so far from one another. Auki doesn't believe that he will get Noah's trust back. "Did you kill him?" He finally spoke after five to ten minutes of complete silence.

Noah stayed silent for a while and just stared at his hands, the same hands that have killed thousands of people in this city. He sighed and heard what Auki asked, he didn't know how to respond but he just thought about it for a second. "I'm not sure, I hope I did." He smiled and showed Auki, but his face was done. He grabbed his chin and pulled it up so Auki could look straight into Noah's eyes. Then and only then did he give Auki a bigger smile.

Auki took a deep breath as he feared the answer. He has no idea that the man had found him. His eyes widened as his chin was pulled up, seeing Noah. "Noah." He all but whispered out as he saw a smile on the assassins lips. He doesn't want to touch Noah, so he left his hands in his lap. Another fear that if Auki put his hand on Noah's hand, he would probably reject it.
