LOGIN"Do not forget what we came here for." Leo said lowly, and Shawn's face twisted in a grimace as he nodded."I did a lot of fucked up things to you. Things that were wrong and horrible, and I am sorry, even though I know it is an apology you do not desire. But I did not come here to apologize. I came here to...to inform you that I will be... I am going to turn myself into the cops, Victor. I am going to plead guilty to charges of rape and assault. I will explain to them the things that I have done, and I will go to jail and do whatever it is they will require of me. I wanted to tell you this myself beforehand. I do not know if they will question you or how the trial will happen. I know little to nothing about the law. I just...wanted to give you a warning."Victor did not know how to respond to Shawn. His mind swam with different thoughts, his brows knitting together. Shawn had never apologized when doing what he had done to him. He had done as he pleased and taken joy in using him. Ye
"I just wanted to make sure that I told you.""I am sorry that you felt you had to stay -""Stop that, foxy. I made the choice. I did not think you would force me to stay; I wanted to stay. Last night was a very important night for the both of us.You needed to reconnect with your family, and I needed to make a good first impression. Running away in the middle of dinner would be a terrible impression." Cade mused, his fingers gently brushing along Victor's thigh before he leaned in to softly kiss his cheek."Coffee is not breakfast. What do you want to eat?""Hm, I can cook us some eggs." Victor suggested."And sausage with hashbrowns.""And pancakes with a dick on it?" Cade's words were teasing, and Victor thought back to Chris' pancake maker, laughing quietly as he shook his head."We should see if they would like to go out tonight." He commented, earning a curious look from Cade before he nodded."We can do that." He agreed when there was a knock on the door, startling both of them
"Well, I will say that I am glad you have taken an interest in our son. I can already see the difference in him; he looks much better already."Victor's cheeks flushed at her words and the rest of the dinner continued in a calm, casual conversation. They stopped their interrogation of Cade, which he was thankful for. He could practically feel when Cade finally felt relaxed as he laughed with his mother and talked about the discoveries he had made about Victor, such as his obsession with books and his adoration of covers.He had mumbled under his breath, at least until his mother informed him they had his old books put up and he could take them if he wanted to. He had immediately agreed, and when they left the house, Cade's arms were filled with three giant boxes, and Victor carried a small one while seeming pleased with himself."Let' go to my place." Cade sighed once they were in the car, and Victor agreed."I have a surprise for you, and I feel this I'd the perfect time to give it t
Cade leaned in and gently pressed his lips to his cheek. "Whether they like me or not, I will be here for you. I will still encourage you to visit and be with them."Victor smiled at Cade's words, and he leaned forward, pressing his forehead against his."Thank you." He whispered, receiving a soft chuckle."Let's get out now." Cade murmured before he turned the car off. He got out and made his way to open Victor's door as well. Victor stepped out, immediately looping his arm with Cade's so he could walk close to him. Cade could practically feel Victor's nerves, and so he reached out to knock on the door himself. It was a man who answered it, his eyes immediately eyeing Cade up and down."Dad," Victor said softly, his grip on Cade tightening as he stared at the older man. It was immediately obvious where Victor got his looks from when his mother soon approached the door as well, placing a hand on her husband's arm. She was a ginger just as Victor was."Hello," Cade said lowly, offering
On the back, a number seemed to have quickly been written down. A soft breath fell from him, and he nodded quickly."Thank you." He said softly as Cade placed a gentle hand on his back and guided him from the office and back out to his car. He sat down, letting out a soft breath of relief as he relaxed."Feel better?" Cade mused as he placed a hand on his thigh, squeezing it firmly. It earned him a quiet grumble, followed by a nod."I am glad she was able to give some medicine for him." He admitted lowly, placing his hand gently on Cade's hand as he watched the road."I couldn't find a tank, though. I could ask James to borrow one from the store for the time being..." He mumbled thoughtfully, and Cade gave a quiet chuckle."Want me to ride by there, and you can ask?""Please." Victor nodded immediately, and it was not long before they came to a stop outside of his work. He went inside, Cade remaining in the car, and asked James if they had a spare tank in the back that he could borrow
"Oh, when I get my hands on these people." Victor muttered before he looked to James"What do you intend to do with him, Victor?""Can I take him home?" Victor questioned lowly as he used his free hand to remove the bowl of pellets out of the cage before he looked to James."Yes, of course. He doesn't belong to the store, so there is no reason you can't." James nodded and eyed the dirty enclosure the creature had been in."Let me get you a fresh cage for now." He grunted and disappeared. When he returned, he had an enclosure just like the one the gecko had been in, except this one was larger."Thank you. Could you please lay some paper towels on the bottom? And do we have a jar that he could fit in? He really needs a moist hide as soon as possible. I suppose I can turn the heat on in Cade's car to warm him up for now..." Victor rambled aloud as James laid the paper towels down, snorting quietly. He disappeared once more before returning with a jar."He will need a vet appointment. I h
"We will have to fix that then. Just make a list of the new things you do enjoy. The cook can at least keep it in mind for you and you can try new things." Ethan nodded, biting his lip. His eyes scanned over Jayden's desk and he was surprised to find a file that had his name on it."What is that?"
Now that Ethan was taking in Jayden's appearance, he meant what he said. The man appeared to only be a few years older than him. He had a full head of dark hair that was slicked back out of his face. He had green eyes and not a single wrinkle on his face.He even seemed rather fit, at least as far
The man had bought him simply as a business deal it sounded like."You bought me as a business deal then, Mr. Moore?" He questioned but the man shook his head, shocking him a little."First of all, my name is Jayden. However, you will call me Sir and nothing else. And no, that is not the only reaso
He demanded, feeling rather confused. Mr. Moore, as his father called him, raised an eyebrow."Has your father not spoken to you about our deal?" He questioned and his father intercepted quickly before he could respond."Ethan does not take many interests in the decisions I make for him." The older
