    Summary

    He was a lawyer looking to pay someone to fool his family into thinking he was in a relationship, he was an out-of-work musician looking for a paying job... Can I make it any more obvious?

     

    “So, I’ll tell you a bit about myself and the job. Then you can decide if you want to stay to answer my questions. It is very important we both are happy with the situation before we continue.” Oh shit, it’s definitely a sex dungeon. Charles thought to himself. Although, not sure I’d mind him tying me up and- Charles shook his head slightly. Focus.

    “Right, no problem.” Charles coughed slightly, still thinking about that dungeon.

    “So, as I said in the advert: it is a very simple job but it is also highly unusual. I am looking for a companion, you see.”

    “Like, someone to shag?” Charles blurted out before he could help himself.

    “Not quite. Believe it or not I am actually able to find my own sexual partners without having to pay them.” Edwin quipped and Charles couldn’t quite tell if he’d offended him.

    Summary

    “Edwin, what the fuck?” Charles asked as he walked to stand next to Edwin in the near pitch-black. The only light came from the slight flickering of the paused TV- white writing suspended on a black background.

    “That was not my doing.” Edwin spoke quietly. “Please tell me you ensured this house was safe before descending on it for your movies?”

    “Yeah, of course I did.” Charles said huffily. “Spoke to the locals, no suspicious activity. No hauntings, no creature sightings. Just your run-off-the-mill abandoned house.”

    “Then what, prey tell, is that?” Edwin asked. The clock had stopped chiming and there was an eerie quiet, broken by a soft sound coming from upstairs.

    Summary

    “Edwin!” the fancy woman calls, hurrying over and lifting the boy from the ground. “Oh, look at the state of you.”

    “It is only a bit of dirt, Mother,” he answers, and it’s then that Charles puts it together. Edwin. Edwin Payne, the crown prince of the kingdom, and his mother, Queen Esme. Charles scrambles up so he can kneel in front of her and bow his head. It’s a good thing Mum insisted on teaching him etiquette, in case she ever got that job at the palace laundry.

    “Your Majesty,” Charles stammers. He feels very, very small, and very, very poor.

    “Who is this? Edwin, what were you doing with this boy?” she asks. “Did he push you down?”
