 “Bae please just compromise with me on this. I’m not denying you permission to go to the village, but I would like Dove to escort you.”

 Now that he had his son back he was taking no chances that he would be hurt or that someone would try to steal him away from him again. It hadn’t been long since he had gone through that portal and was reunited with his boy and he still felt his black heart clench as he remembered that evening. The portal had opened and admitted him into Neverland. He had hoped to never see that accursed place again and certainly had never expected for Bae to wind up there.

 When he had found his boy and Bae ran to him to embrace he had allowed himself to think for just a moment that he was acting that way because he missed him and knew he was there to save him. However once they got back to the Dark Castle and his boy started to become distant again, he knew the truth. Bae had acted that way because being with him was at least a little better than being under the tyrant Pan’s thumb.

 “I just got you back son, I don’t want to lose you again.”

 “What is it that you’re trying to hide from me Bae?” he asked. His tone wasn’t accusatory, but concerned as he stared down at his son. He seemed to be favoring one leg now though he had been perfectly fine before leaving home. “Did you get hurt? You know I can heal you son, why are you hiding it from me?”
