TW: Dark content, kidnapping.
English is not my first language, I'm still learning
Kyle "Gaz" Garrick is the kind of man no one looks to when something bad happens and the culprit needs to be found. Handsome, charming, kind, highly adaptable, and always the first to advocate for justice.
So when a girl disappears in the town he moved to years ago after his early retirement from the army, everyone is shocked, people are scared it could happen to more girls or even childs. While the police do their job gathering information that leads them to dead ends, Kyle is there, actively helping the community become safer, organizing volunteers to patrol at night, organizing a system so that all parents (even those who have to work) can be sure that their sons and daughters arrived home safely.
But at the end of the day, after dealing with paranoid and worried people all day, Kyle just goes into his comfortable home that he remodeled himself. He makes enough food and goes to his reading room to activate the false door in the wall with a push and go down to his most comfortable place.
His beautiful bird is there, unconscious, and still with a chain binding her right hand and foot to the wall. Poor thing. The red skin and blood betrayed that she had been fighting against the chains.
“Dove... Hey, dove” He gently woke his sweet girl; a smile played on his lips, but darkness lingered in his eyes. “What did I say about hurting yourself you like this, darling? I won't be able to let go if you keep hurting yourself....”
His tone was condescending, and her eyes looked at him with fear, she quickly backed away, using her hands and feet to put distance between them.
“Oh, c'mon... Don't be like tha', you know I'm not gonna hurt you.” He extended the plate of food, because after not eating since yesterday afternoon, his bird was surely starving. “C'mon, you have to eat, you’re too precious for me to lose you”
She didn't come closer and was shaking her head, so Kyle went over to her in that corner and sat down in front of her.
“Why are you doing this to me?”
Her beautiful voice sounded broken and Kyle could see her tears; he dried them with his hand, caressing the roundness of her cheek. “Dove, I'm saving you. Look at all the damage you're doing to yourself; without me, I don't know how you'd still be alive."
He stroked her hair condescendingly as she let tears fall, but the lack of arguments and fighting she had in the first few days must have been a good sign for him. When he gently brought the spoonful of food to her, she accepted.
Just like that, We're on the right track... Cap would be proud of me. Kyle thought, because if his Captain had managed to get such a perfect missus this way, then he was doing it too... Maybe he should ask his Captain to come visit with the missus; perhaps a chat with missus Price would make his precious dove understand how lucky she was to be chosen to be pampered by Kyle forever.
