    "Boss, the job's wrapped. I've compiled every list of shares held in the company, not one information less. There's a file attached, everything else is awaiting your orders"." Hmm~", Zeke stood with his back to the dark figure, wiping his hands with a towel. His sharp, piercing gaze fixated on the pot of porridge simmering on the stove with a slow, satisfied nod. "Have the next phase initiated,i want all assets liquidated by dusk. Let's have the Gu's corporation hanging on a thin thread"."Sure boss!", the dark figure lowered his head in a quick nod, his rough eyes lingering on the boss's broad busy figure stir- frying vegetables by the stove. Even when preparing meals,the boss's aura had diminished a bit - the stark contrast made his eyes twitch.How far was the boss willing to go for that pretty boy's sake? Even declining himself to mere kitchen chores, at this point, there was absolutely nothing he wouldn't do.Slow, steady steps descended from the stairs and Alan's slender figur

    "I guess that leaves me with tails", Zeke beamed, tossing the coin into the air. He watched it flip over three times before landing on his thumb. Alan held his breath, craning his neck so he could get a closer look. Zeke stared at the coin, a small chuckle escaping his lips - he glanced at Alan, a mysterious glint flashing through his eyes. "So.. which is it?", Alan asked, his clenched fists hanging loosely by his sides, unable to contain his anxiety any further. Ezekiel ran his tongue over his thin lips, his gaze holding more suspense than a whirlwind cliffhanger. He stroked his smooth chin, raising a perfectly arched brow, voice barely above audible, "It's...." "It's what?"Zeke raised his eyes, watching worried creases form above Alan's usually smooth forehead. He was already rocking himself while chewing on his fingernails, looking almost at the verge of losing his cool.Zeke gave a devilish grin, revealing a perfect set of white teeth. "It's tails".The room went perfectly st

    Wait.... What?! Alan blinked, his lashes fluttering in a stunned gaze. Ezekiel, taking advantage of Alan's momentary confusion, wrapped his arms around Alan's waist. With a small tug, he pulled Alan close, slamming his slender frame against his hard muscles - close enough to catch a whiff of Alan's hazelnut scented shampoo.He leaned in, letting his nose run through Alan's hair before burying his face in the nook of his neck, all while ignoring Alan's constant vain attempts at breaking free from his grasp."You smell so good, Alan", Zeke sprayed hot breath on Alan's sensitive skin, which had turned red from embarrassment. A slow, satisfied moan escaping his dry,raspy throat.Alan bit back a moan, his sanity overwhelming his desires. He gave up struggling, it was absolutely pointless at this point - Zeke clearly had a tight grip on him. So much for calling him fragile..."Mr Ezekiel, your behavior right now is unbecoming. This is a violation of my rights and i demand that you let me g

    [Reminder: Host is yet to unbox the mystery reward.][Would host like to unveil his rewards at the moment?]Alan hummed softly, flipping the magazine in his hands shut. He leaned back, raising his almond shaped eyes to the transparent, blue screen floating mid-air. [Click yes, if the host would like to collect the rewards]Alan cupped his chin, his gaze caught between the two visible buttons hovering in his face. Then he leaned back, visibly relaxed, "I've never really asked... but what would happen if i, you know, accidentally clicked on the No button?".[Well, thanks for asking. If you press the reject button, then the mystery reward would be...well, removed from your inventory and void][Host, are you really sure that you want to reject the reward?. If you'd like...i can always go ahead and do you the honors...][Shall i proceed with the Host's request?Alan's lips twitched, at this point, it felt like Xena was taunting him. For heaven's sake, he'd gone through a lot of hell, fina

    "Arrrgh!!" Simone groaned, sweeping every pawn on his desk to the floor. "Damnit, how dare he.... How dare he threaten me?!" He slapped the desk hard, the numbing pain in his hands nothing compared to the humiliation he'd endured earlier. He leaned his weight against the desk, eyes nearly bloodshot. His chest heaved heavily, his breathing becoming laboured as he ran his hands roughly through his red, spiky hair."Getting this worked up over such a minor issue is so unlike you, Simone", a soft voice chuckled in a tone almost mocking.Simone's grip on the desk tightened, veins bulging from his neck as he gritted his teeth in silent fury. Glancing over his shoulder, he caught the petite silhouette of a woman in a tight, red-laced dress sitting fancily on his couch.A slight smirk kissed her rouge stained lips, her grey eyes settling on the pawn shards lying on the floor. Then shifting to Simone's emotionally distraught state, her voice dropped a few notches, "How pathetic". "Abigail,

    Simone straightened up, his chest slightly puffed out in pride. "Or did you come to physically apologize on your sister's behalf?" That had to be it. Dylan had always been overly obsessive about him, even going to great lengths just to please him. Whatever he wanted, Dylan would move the heavens and earths to get.He scoffed, a condescending glint flashing through his eyes as he ran his hands through his messy red hair.Dylan's eyes twitched first, his fists balled tightly by his sides. He gritted his teeth, his blue eyes locked on Simone's haughty smirk with intense fury. If only fifth uncle weren't here, how he would love to knock that self-centered smirk off that fool's face. He's yet to repay his favor for that night and here he was running that big void of a mouth, spouting absolute nonsense. Even daring to call his eldest sister names, oh.... definitely he had a death wish. And he, Dylan, was more than willing to grant it.Matthew stood behind, quietly watching the tension ri

    Hiss... Dylan clutched the leather chair, biting back his screams. Tears pooled around his eyes, his gaze locked on the bloodied, swollen scratches on his left knee. Damn that psycho, red-haired brat!! The sharp, pungent sting of menthylated spirit reached his nostrils, accompanied by the fa

    Two days later....... The clouds darkened, a soft drizzle drifting down, casting a thin veil over the city. The air was filled with earthy scent of wet soil and blooming flowers, Alan held up his face, inhaling and exhaling gently. Great...., another rain shower!!.He scanned the crowd of people

    Wow!. How...... aesthetic. Alan placed the stack of files on the medium-sized desk. Stretching his arms out, he felt the smooth walls coldly pressed against his fingertips. He lowered his arms, staring at the small, poorly furnished space with an amused look. He let out a small laugh - all of

    " You ungrateful little twerp!!" Alan settled his calm eyes on the aged man sitting on one of the luxurious sofas, accompanied by two women. He blinked silently in confusion, his head tilting slightly to the side. "After all i've done raising you..... You still dared to commit such a crime, em
