As stolen moments turn into passionate encounters, both men find themselves falling deeper than they ever imagined possible but with corporate espionage, family pressure, and a vengeful ex pulling the strings from the shadows, Michael and Kelvin must fight not only for their love but for their very survival.

Chapter: Chapter 16: Behind the Mask 2“Oh, please I’m so sorry.” Michael let out as he reached for his mask on the sofa and covered his face with it. Luca was stunned. He was too dazed to speak. Michael, his boss, was clad in dark pants and an unbuttoned shirt. His structured stomach was ravishing and his chest was as seductive as ever. “I took a quick bath, and I was not feeling well. Hope I did not make you uncomfortable?” He inquired but Luca gave no reply. He was too shocked to reply. “Are you here?”“Yes..umm,” Luca replied then cleared his throat. He had never spoken to in his normal voice. He’d always make his voice sound deeper than usual to the client’s satisfaction. “I’m okay. I was just surprised to see you here.” “See me here? Do you know me?” Michael questioned curiously.“No, no. You were here last time..so I’m surprised you’re here again.” Luca retorted calmly, hiding his emotions. He could not fathom the reason why Michael would be here. He is interested in men? But, he had Maria! If he’s interested

Chapter: Chapter 15: Behind The Mask“Your customers have been disturbing the boss with calls. One got drunk the day before yesterday and screamed your name continuously.” Ethan said as he rested his hands on the counter. Luca dropped the glass on the counter carefully and smiled lightly. “He urged me to come back but I don't think I can.” “What is the nature of the job that kept you away from us?” Ethan inquired while the other barman came forward. “Hey, Luca!” Hans called out as he leaned forward and shook Luca’s hand. He was a tall man with long hair reaching his shoulders. “It is great seeing you.” “Hans, man. How are things going?” Luca asked as he withdrew his hand from Hans’s. “Well, I think the new update you should know is that he is going to be a father soon.” Ethan let out in a low tone and chuckled. Luca raised his brow in surprise as he took another sip of the alcoholic drink. “Is that true?” “Yeah, man. I guess I'm going to have a baby sooner or later.” Hans replied wryly while Ethan nudged hi

Chapter: Chapter 14: A Night OutAurora let out excitedly as she showed Ernest immediately. “I have seen it too! Who would have thought Mr Beaufort would make a video with her?” Laura replied as they all glued their eyes on their screens while Luca acted nonchalant.“She made him hop on a trend!” Julia squeaked happily as she tapped her finger on her screen. “How did she get him to do that? And he looks so pleased to make a video with her.”“What do you think? She must have forced him.” Edward let out and Julia nudged him instantly. “What? We all know Mr Beaufort. He is just like his son, strict and stern.”“And what about Mr. Michael’s fianceé?” Aurora inquired softly as she placed her phone on the table. They will get married soon, and she will be his daughter-in-law soon, so it is normal for him to be free with her.” “Well, Aurora is right. He might be strict but he must be free with his in-laws to be.” Mrs Evergreen affirmed and they nodded solemnly. Soon, the lunchtime ended and they all dispersed. Luca retur

Chapter: Chapter 13 : The Aftermath of Defiance“What did she say to you?” Michael asked, his eyes on Evlyn as she walked down the hallway with her assistant and bodyguards. “Just a warning, sir.” He watched as Michael turned to leave them and added, “Thanks for having my back earlier, sir. I am grateful.”“You had your back yourself before I came to stop Evelyn. You stood up for yourself and that's how it should be. Employees are also humans and they don't deserve to be treated like shit.” He retorted calmly. “Thank you again, sir.”“It is fine. You did well in the conference room. You should keep it up.” He answered, his back still turned to him, and then he continued, “You should head back to work. I will send the compensation to your account details.” “Alright, sir.” Luca let out softly and watched as he went away. He could not help but admire his courage and aura. But what about Evelyn’s warning? He shook the thoughts off immediately, She can't harm him, probably she was still angry about how Michael commanded her to apolog

Chapter: Chapter 12: The Sting Of PrideEvelyn let out loudly as she lowered her hand and locked gaze with Michael. Luca became amazed. Did Michael defend both of his employees? Of course, that was what he was supposed to do, but he never thought he could support them over his ‘important client’. “You heard me right. Just because you're my cousin does not mean you can treat my employees like they are yours. You have not learned your manners, have you?”Evelyn scoffed angrily. Why would she apologize to his stinking workers? She had always known Michael to be a strict man but she could not afford getting reprimanded by him in front of his workers.“Umm…can we just talk this out? You know what, don't fire them, just send them out and let's have a sensible discussion.” She said calmly. “It is either you apologize or I'll cancel the meeting. Pick one.” He replied firmly, adjusting his tie. Evelyn bit her bottom lip slowly. Michael was a man of his word and if she did not apologize, it would be her loss because she would los

Chapter: Chapter 11: A Stormy EncounterChapter 11 : A Stormy Encounter “That should help your sight.”The employee gasped as she touched her now-red cheek, her glasses falling to the floor from the impact of the sudden slap. Evelyn shifted her gaze to Luca and smirked. “Now, what do you have to say for your dumbness?”Luca could feel the anger boiling in him but he stood his ground. “I did not know you were the one Mr Micheal was expecting, Ma’am. Welcome, and I apologize from my heart because of the silly mistake I made.”She inhaled shapely while her assistant, the man holding files, walked to her and cleaned her gown with his handkerchief gently. “You should be fired but for now, I have to see Michael and talk to him.”Luca stood his ground and stopped the female employee as she was about to leave. He watched as she bent, picked up her glasses, and then made a gesture for her to wait. Evelyn put on her shades and saw that both of them were still gone. “What are you still doing here? I told you to get out!”Luca shoo
