Chapter 15
Peter was still waiting there and hoping that nothing bad was going on. There were some hurried footsteps and the rooms next to him, were yelling and thuds heard. His legs pulled up to his stomach and him hugging them. He knew how to fight but right now he felt helpless knowing that he wasn't mentally well.
It would not fend up well and even this was making him anxious and scared even. It was triggering him because loudness was something that he wasn't liking. With his super-hearing, it was always something that made him uncomfortable.
This continued on for a while and he felt more and more on the edge with each passing moment. But he held it in knowing that he would be safe here. This place was hidden, and he made sure that no one would find him here. Also, the doors were locked.
It was also helping that from time to time he got that tug from his soulmates. His heart fluttered at this, but it also worried him. So that he gave them his own reassurance, as they would need to concentrate on their own.
The door was forcefully opened, and a loud bang sound was also heard. His heart thundering in his chest and he felt adrenaline coming but he wasn't moving and making sure to stay hidden. His breath as quiet as possible, even his hands over his mouth, to make as few sounds as possible. He almost let out whimpers accidental but managed to hold it.
"Where is he?" This voice was one he had heard many times. The one who sold and the mastermind behind slaves. His eyes narrowed and he was pissed off. Eyes narrowed and he was so tempted to get out and kick that person's ass.
"He is not here, at least there is no place to hide in here." Another voice was said, and he was feeling his anger get even more when realizing that this was Mal.
"Search the entire room." The king and father of Mal were now saying this and he was angered. Because they ruined everything for him.
Ruined not just that innocent that he held but also many kids. Ruined his mental health, forcing him to do things that he never wanted. Many kids suffered because of them and he had enough. Right now, he was enraged. So, he opened the door and slowly peaked out and seeing that there were three people.
Slowly he closed the door again and locking it almost silently. In his head, he made a plan and breathing out. In his mind, he ended up using subconsciously a magic impulse. Merlin and also Gaius would know. They would know that he was in danger.
"Hurry up." It was hissed out and eyes narrowed as heard the room getting in pure chaos. He was really pissed because later on, this would have to be cleaned up again. Not to mention they entered his territory.
Maybe that was why when the door of the closet got opened, he unlocked it and opening and dashing forward. He punched the first person in the gut and the taking on the other two. Thanks to his Spidey sense he got warned where they would try to hit. He ended up defeating them but a few bruises also a few cuts as well. He used his natural webs as binding their wrist together also their ankles.
He was finished and still feeling angered. Mal got a chance but messed it up and he wasn't sure that he would end up getting himself killed. Not his issue anymore and he would not butt into the affair anymore. He plopped himself on the bed and trying to calm his anger down, but it was not working at all. His anger grew the more he has seen them. He was so tempted to leave this room, but he knew that it wouldn't be a good idea.
The cuts would probably need some stitches and he was still angered. A huff went out and he knew that he would need to at least bandage the cuts, but he couldn't really care right now. His gaze was going around and the want to get outside and fighting was big right now.
But he knew that they could escape. Which was why he has his eyes constantly on them. A few footsteps starting to appear, and he glanced at the door to see Merlin with Arthur, also Gwaine and Lancelot entering.
His brother yet father figure instantly rushed over and fuzzing over him and he put his hands up to make him silent. "I am not in the mood right now." He cut out with a grumble and feeling still angry at them.
"The fat guy there." He pointed and glaring daggers at the unconscious male. "Has sold other kids also he did also sell me to the two asshats." He growls out and feeling his anger more. He really was in a bad mood right now.
"Wait how did they end up with webs?" It was Merlin who asked this, and he let out a sigh and gave him a guilty look this time.
"I have spider powers. This is why I have a stronger sense. Have better hearing, eyes also smell as well. That is why I sometimes get sensory overload. I can also feel danger, aka Spidey sense I like to call it and the webs are natural, can shoot them from my wrists. Also, have a way stronger metabolism because of this." He breathed out and avoiding their gaze.
"Woah that is badass." Merlin blurted out and he mused slightly as it reminded him of Ned. His brother grinned at him and he felt now a bit better.
"I hid it as the danger of king Uther or other people. Who knows what would happen but I am sure that you wouldn't reject me because you accepted magic." He said with a shrug and Gwaine seemed as euphoric about this.
"Well, that explains a few things I guess." He heard Lancelot chuckle, and, in the end, he got dragged to Gaius and Merlin's chamber and wounds took care of. The intruders did end up getting executed as it was clear that they would just try again. But it was made sure that the place where the kids would end up would be revealed.
He wasn't liking them dying but he couldn't stop it either. Per law, they broke it and he was staying out of this. In the evening both of his soulmates entered exhaustion dripping over them and he walked up and pulling both into a hug.
He couldn't see them as they were busy with the meetings and all and seeing them unharmed was relieving to him. The two wrapped their arms as well and they stood there for a moment. Then they left and nothing was said.
"You really scared the living hell out when we heard you got injured." It was said with relieve and Dickie was giving him a kiss on his cheeks.
"But you did well." It was said soon afterward, and he felt his heart flutter in joy, yet it made him feel shy as well. Cheeks heating up.
"So what did you want to tell us?" Delbert asked and he felt his cheeks heat up, but he gave the two a bashful smile.
"Well, I uh well...I did realize after talking to Merls what my feelings were so..." He trailed off and a sheepish look overcame him. "I was confused and that was the reason why I was out of it most of the time."
The blinked and soon realized what he was telling them. They chuckled and their normal routine and ending up falling asleep in each other's arms. He was just happy to know that he could finally sleep without having to worry about them coming back.
