It was as if the grin was a sound and Law could hear it—
An aura flew around the taller man, totally satisfied by laws obedience. Of course his state was a huge part, maybe even the only one why Law gave in, but he said it. Doflamingo heard it. Those words ran down his spine like a shiver, crawled back up and released a wave of happiness for a moment. That was the point when the celestial being decided it.
Law was his and nobody else should ever lay a hand on him-
Chuckling in his typical laughter Doflamino leaned closer once more, his tone even lower and he whispered into Laws ear:
“You belong to me, Law.
— never forget that. Fufufu ~”
And with these words Doflamingo withdrew his head, still watched Law intensively
while now letting the key down right in front of the hungry surgeon.
It was a promise— Law was his and thus nobody shall ever touch him in any way. It also meant that nobody ever was allowed to hurt him… The privilege was fully reserved for the heavenly yaksha. Only.
However, he waited for the other to take the key and he actually let him, decided that it was enough and he surely was satisfied by Laws words. They sounded so desperate. Sweet melody ~
And inside that door, when the raven haired man opened the door was indeed a bathtub filled with hot and fresh water in the middle of the room. And next to it was a table with a lot of different fruits, vegetables, but also meat. It looked self-cooked, fresh (actually, Doffy cooked it himself, but nobody had to know ~) and also tasty. It smelled good and the room felt clean, the hot water dusting the one mirror that stood in there. Oh, water and juice was also on the table, everything freshly served. The light wasn’t too much, yet a bit dimmed, allin all… Cozy. Neat. And on that room was another door—
“The door is the toilet. Just in case you need to ~
Enjoy it, Law-chan.”
And with that, Doflamingo really left him there, about to turn around and go away.
The moment the tone of his voice sounded... those pleading words fell from his mouth, he immediately wanted to take them back. His frame quivered just the same, but rest assured his was due to the shame, and sick feeling within his stomach that had come to haunt him. Those two little words brought forth from the colossal man’s lips, hinted with one of those twisted grins of his. They had sent a signal of panic to his mind. ‘Good boy.’ From the beginning to the end of this form of praise... it had always made him feel much smaller than he actually was, screwing around with his mind more during his state of exhaustion.
Eyes were widened, focused on the door frame ahead of him. He didn’t budge, he didn’t move a single muscle, so long as Doflamingo remained behind him, he wouldn’t dare; not yet. The heavy breathe of the man’s laugh rolled down the back of his neck, causing shoulders to raise, and bunch up against as if trying to block the feeling which had been causing him to squirm about.
The surgeon remained as still as still could be, freezing furthermore as the lay of claim was placed upon him once more. Knowing this wasn’t a bluff; knowing that his very freedom and sanity rode on his, he swallowed back a lump growing in his throat. He had quite literally paved his own way into this hell.
As the key was dangled in front of him once more, hesitantly, both hands reached up, in a cupped position, watching as the key was dropped to rest flat in his hands. having thought he had the upper hand for once, the realization that he had done exactly what Doffy wanted was about to hit him in the face, and surely further knock him to his knees in shame. Law fidgeted with the key, gripping it and shoving it into the key hole. From there he flicked his wrist hearing the sound of the door releasing it’s lock.
Keeping the key in place, both hands fell to the knob of the door, pushing his weight against it, as he made his way into the room. Eyes once more widening at the scents... the feeling... the scene. Had he died an gone to heaven? No... wait this wasn’t heaven, this was just everything which had been taken from him a week prior. Licking over his dry lips, he took a few steps forward, directing himself towards the table of food.
It had been his state of exhaustion, dehydration and hunger which was leading him there. Despite his mind warning him to not go further, his body craved sustenance, and who was it to deny the large mass splayed out on the table?
This had been easier than he thought. He lived up to being stubborn enough to get what he wanted, but had that truly been the case? Law reached for a piece of meat and sunk his teeth into it, as the juicy flavour seeped against his deprived taste buds.
He would enjoy this... every last ounce of water, food, and alone time. Surely it hadn’t been this easy. He hadn’t truly submitted had he? Law didn’t feel that way, but ignoring any of those thoughts he continued to dig in, shoving his face with food, drinking as much as he desired. He was no better than a ravenous and starved creature on the street, finally landing a kill.
Through the corner of his eyes he spotted the movement as Doflamingo’s actions suggested he was about to leave. He didn’t do much to stop him; actually he did nothing at all but just watch as he indulged on sweet, sweet ‘victory.’
