Zenos extended his hand and ruffled the boy’s hair gently. “Baby, I didn't know it bothered you this much. Do you think I don't want you anymore? I do. I really do. Look.” Without hesitation, Zenos grabbed the boy’s hand and used it to touch his rising bulge. Feeling the existence of the large, familiar monster, a certain memory began to invade Hayden’s head. Hayden’s face and ears flushed deeply, and a whole sense of anger overwhelmed him. Hayden quickly pulled back his hand, and he glared at Zenos with teary, limpid eyes due to embarrassment. "You pervert,” he retorted, but his voice ended up emitting a thin, whiny voice to Hayden’s dismay.Zenos’ lips curled upward in a mischievous smirk, and he bit the boy’s ear slightly. “En. Want to see? A pervert tailor-made for young master baby Hayden." Zenos’ lips curled up, and a mischievous glint flickered past his eyes.Without waiting for the boy’s response, he bends slightly and picks up the boy in bridal style.By this time, Hayden’s
Several people repeatedly made their way in and out of the airport. An eye-catching female figure dressed in a red suit and its red skirt that fell on her thigh pulled luggage behind her and casually strode out of the airport, with a Bluetooth earpod in one of her ears and a phone in her right hand. Even with her face mask on, the girl repeatedly caught the lingering stares of the crowd, which she ignored.A man in his late twenties donning a suit suddenly hurried forward and only came to a stop in front of the girl. He bowed respectfully to the girl before stretching out his hand to collect the girl’s luggage, which she effortlessly passed to him. “Welcome miss…”“Hm.” Jade took off her mask and elegantly stretched her body before nodding casually. “Has the mansion been prepared yet? I’ll be in Grail for a while.” Jade articulated in a calm tone and elegantly tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear, her action depicting elegance yet seductiveness.The man in a suit was absent-m
Andy stood in his office and stared down at the busy city with glazed eyes. His eyes subconsciously lowered to his phone. He unlocked his phone and went through his phone app, mail app, and chatting app as if searching for something important.Even after scrolling through all the apps on his phone, he failed to discover what he was looking for, making his whole person appear downcast.Andy tossed the phone into his trousers pocket, and the glint in his eyes became complicated. His gaze fell on the busy city, and he felt very uncomfortable. It was dark, but still, he could only stay in the office…“CEO Andy.” The sudden call from his assistant broke his thoughts.Even without turning to look at his assistant, Andy already knew what the person was in his office for. “Place them on the table and leave.” He calmly ordered“Ok,” the person replied and strode towards Andy’s table. Carefully and silently, he placed the documents on the table. He straightened his back and stared at Andy’s bac
Craig leisurely strode out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist. He casually used the towel in his hand to dry his wet hair while striding toward his hair treatment section. Craig extended his hand to pick up his hair dryer, but before he could successfully pick it up, his phone suddenly rang, attracting Craig's attention.Craig’s brows arched, and he strode towards his bed immediately. He picked up his phone to see an unknown number calling him. His brows furrowed slightly, yet he accepted the call and placed the phone next to his ear. “Hey...”“Did you know Big Brother Sean specially curated a list of places just to find the perfect city for me to spend my vacation? If you don’t, I just wanted to tell you that.” Xena’s charming voice, filled with extreme cockiness, drifted into Craig’s ear. Xena’s voice was filled with so much smugness that it was clear that she wanted to show off while gloating at Craig.Craig’s expression changed, and his lips pursed in a thin li
PROLOGUEYears back On the outskirts of the city, the road was deserted with hardly any cars passing by except an expensive car that was parked near the road. Heavy rain was falling, and it was very chilly that late afternoon. “Mom! Please don't leave!” A little boy of 6 years who was just dropped from an expensive car cried out, he was afraid of the things to come if his mother dumped him in an unknown and deserted place where there appears to be no signs of humans. The little boy was a bit thin and malnourished, he was dressed in dirty and worn-out clothing from head to toe, but that couldn't even hide his handsome and noble expression. He cried out pitifully with tears streaming down his handsome little face. He was trying to pull the woman's gown, but the woman looked unfazed, dressed in expensive luxury from up to down, she coldly pushed the small boy away with contempt and disgust written on her face while the guards watched everything nonchalantly. The woman pushed the boy
“When is that little doctor coming back?” Zenos questioned as he made his way to the club's private lobby calmly amidst ambient lighting, blasting music, making out couples, dancing and sweating bodies, etc. He coldly ignored the people who were batting their eyes at him seductively. Thinking that it would help Zenos relax and let out steam as the search engine said; Zenos's friends decided to drag him to a popular club in the city to make him lose his composure and probably act like the teen he is or hopefully finds someone who'd catch his eyes.“Michael is older than you!” Jude interrupted with amusement, making Zenos scoff at him. A dancing girl passed by them while throwing a flirtatious gaze.“He should be back before next week, his seminar has been extended,” Sean said calmly while eating a banana. David and Jude shook their heads at Sean's eating fruit habit, but it's known among them that messing with Sean's fruit is equal to looking for death, which made them unable to do a
The loud noise didn't resonate well with Hayden, but the excitement pictured on Andy's face made him keep his shut. Besides, he'll be meeting Rose, the girl he has been courting for almost 2 weeks in a few minutes which made him a little eager. Suddenly, Hayden's whole body screamed alert as he felt like he was being watched by an intense gaze. After being occasionally targeted, he tends to know when danger is near, but subconsciously he found himself relaxing because the gaze doesn't mean danger, instead it kind of brings a safe feeling to him. Hayden lifted his head to look in the direction of the intense gaze, but seeing numerous people and the inability to see those people's faces, he turned and walked away while holding Andy's hand.“Invite to the dancing room. Mr., be my partner!” Andy said with a laugh as he bowed playfully. Hayden smacked Andy's hand away. “Be serious”. Hayden warned coldly and then dragged him towards the bartender amidst dancing bodies and a flirtatio
Hayden can't help thinking if that man was the real predator and just pretended to be his knight last night. Hayden's brows soon furrowed at his stupid thought. What was he thinking? How can a man be a man's knight? He started scolding himself inwardly.“You've forgotten?” The stranger finally replied to the blond with a pale face question but with a chilling voice, furrowed brows, and a cold expression that made no sense to Hayden. Why is he annoyed at him? Hayden thought. Shouldn't he be the one who should be angry that he was taken advantage of when he was drunk? He glared at the stranger. Zenos solemnly stared at the boy who they had both rolled around in the sheet last night, to think that the boy did not remember everything he said and did, annoyed and pained him even if they just met last night, and it was a one-night stand. Hayden's mouth turns dry, and shivers run through his spine with the cold tone the stranger uses to talk to him. Just two words sent chills down Hayd
