Moments later, two men enter the room, Wilhelm can't quite make out their faces through the darkness but they’re tall and broad and heading right for Wilhelm’s cell.
“Wilhelm doesn’t seem too willing to come on his own,” Jan Olof speaks, “he may need some help, gentlemen.”
Wilhelm’s eyes flash to Simon as the boy springs forwards, his hands gripping the bars tightly, panic written on his features, his fear filling the entire room — a pulse that Wilhelm can feel beneath his skin.
“Where are you taking him?” Simon practically shouts.
He’s ignored as the men continue to make their way towards the Prince.
He feels his own heartbeat spike.
“It’s okay, Simon.”
“It’s not okay!” the boy replies frantically, moving towards Wilhelm, his hand reaching between the bars just as the cell is opened, “they can’t take you!”
Wilhelm’s reaction is immediate. He takes Simon’s warm hand in his own. Squeezing gently.
It’ll be okay, Simon. I’m coming back. I’ll always come back for you.
