The location was a bit weird. It was in the middle of the woods and the house was a big dark castle. Someone took care of the garden though, some of the snow was melting and there was some grass/flowers visible. Luke saw Ben's car covered in snow and it was stuck on the snow. His car stopped working a few km before so he had to leave it on a side of the road and continue the way walking.

Inside of the castle...

''We had to be like that didn't we?!'' The clock angrily says ''Just had to invite him, sit on master's couch and drink tea!''

''I was trying to be nice you asshole, maybe I should teach you sometime. Teach you some manners like that time when we got drunk and-''

''Stop talking about it Calum!''

Luke

He got closer to the big old door and opened it slowly, cringing at the sound it made.

''Hello?'' he called. The place was a mess. Chairs were everywhere and some spider webs. ''Is someone in there?''

On the top of the staircase the clock (Michael) and the candle (Calum) were watching the odd scene. They never had so many guests since it happened so this was a big thing for them. At least for Calum, Michael was being a pussy because he was scared of his master.

''Who is he?'' Michael asked ''He looks like that man.''

''Is there someone? I'm looking for my brother! He got lost in the storm last night, I was wondering if he looked for a place to hide here.'' The blonde boy said while going up the staircase.

''Can't you see? He might be the one who is going to break the curse! Michael we have been waiting for this!''

''He is coming!'' Michael and Calum ran to the north tower where the dungeon was, in Calum's request of course, the boy would obviously look there.

Luke went up the stairs and turned to the left where he heard some sounds. Was it Ben? Or someone else that could help him find him? At least he hoped.

There were various mirrors on the wall along with some pictures of a family. The corridors were a beautiful blue along with a white stripe. The place was kinda dirty, there was some powder on the furniture and the floor, dead flowers on top of shelfs and some books. There was a strange shadow the led to a big staircase, it was a tower.

Luke runs to that spot and slowly walks up the stair to a place with some doors ''Hello? Is someone in there?'' there was no one, only a candlestick and he mumbles ''Weird... I thought there was someone...''

Luke heard some shuffling, like someone was trapped in one of that cells or a dungeons.''Luke? Luke is that you?!''

The blonde boy looked down and saw Ben inside the cell. He was alive! Luke gasped and rushed to him. He grabbed Ben's hand and it was cold as ice, he had bags under his eyes and looked so scared.

''What the hell are you doing here Luke Hemmings?! I specifically told you-''

''Oh come on, don't brother me now! We have to get you out of here! Who has done this to you? Who locked you in there?''

''Listen, you have to leave.''

''I'm not leaving you, bastard!''

Something grabbed his should and pushed him aside so roughly that he went to the other side of the room being separated from Ben. He whined because of the pain on his wrist, it wasn't broken but it still hurt. He looked behind him to see what the fuck was like that to him but there was one a stream of light from the moon.

''Who are you?'' he asked with a trembling voice.

''I'm the owner of this castle, and you shouldn't be here.''

''But I have to take him! My brother is weak can't you see he could die?'' the whatever-it-is groans

''I don't care, he is my prisioner and he is not getting out of here.''

''He could die! He has a desease!''

''Then he shouldn't have been on my property.''

Luke got up in silencie, thinking of a way that he could get Ben out of there for his health's sake. Ben has a rare case of anaemia and has to take pills everyday! He can't just let him be here where he is probably living with bread, food and no pills. That's when an idea pops up into his head and he sure won't regret it.

''I'll be on his place!''

''What?'' the person asks.

''LUKE, what the fuck?! Go home now, you don't know what you're doing!'' Ben yelled.

''If you let him go, I'm willing to take his place.''

The person hummed thoughtfully ''But you have to promise to stay here forever.''

Luke nods but wants to see what is hid in the shadow ''Come in to the light.''

He heard slow steps from the man who was going to keep him. He thought it was a man but when he saw the beast he gasped silently. This... animal? Had at least 7 feet, the fur was light brown and his clothes were thight in some places but ripped in the others. He had hazel eyes that reminded Luke of a wild forest, a dangerous wild forest. He walks back until he falls on Ben who was now out of his cell with his hands tied (note: kinky). Luke thought about his decision, this was the only way of saving Ben right? He gets up and walks slowly to the beast.

''You have my word.''

The beast nods ''Okay.''

Ben hugs Luke like it was the las tthing he could do ''Luke you have so much to do and to live I am not going to leave you-''

The beast doesn't let him finish, he grabs him by the back of his coat and drags him downstairs. There are screams between both brothers. The cursed beast puts Ben inside an odd car and ignored the tears streaming down the man's face.

''P-Please, he is my brother he has to come with me.''

''That boy is no longer your concern, you can live your life without him now. And get used to it because you won't see him again.'' he stopped for a moment ''Take him to the village.''

The car suddenly started moving fast, it was enchanted too. Ben didn't stop crying, Luke was there because of him. He was trapped inside a castle alone with cursed stuff and a beast that could be violent, evil and horrible. He felt pain on his heart just thinking about Luke dead and it being his fault because he didn't do anything. He just couldn't.

But there is always hope and he hopes he can take Luke out of there as soon as possible.
