When hearts tear, they make no sound. He should have known that by now. Acting indifferent for an hour and Roy was already dazed and reeling from the hurt. The only noise in the bathroom besides the drumming beat of that lifeless organ inside his chest was the splashing of droplets of water from the tap. On a shuddering breath, Roy stared at his reflection in the mirror and then at the door, and then at the faint love bite on his neck, the tiles but the image that burned in his mind and made him ache was Bryanโs stark, haunted features in his room two nights ago. He saw Bryanโs wild black hair falling uncombed over his perfectly arched brow and gleaming green eyes. Saw his sensual mouth compressed in pain. Saw the shadows of exhaustion between his empty eyes. Saw new lines carved deeper into his brown flesh. Saw the slight slump of his broad proud shoulders. Remembered the agony in his eyes when heโd said, โWhatever happens Roy, please donโt let go.โ Why couldnโt he hate Bryan f

Itโs been a while since heโd laughed.โWho are you texting?โ A raspy male voice broke into his thoughts and he quickly shoved his phone away.โNo one.โ He muttered, licking his suddenly dry lips as guilt washed through him. was he really texting back and forth with Anderson while on a dinner date this Angelo? Eff, this was so messed up.He should have ignored Bryanโs text after that incident in the alley but how could he when his heart skipped a beat and his blood heated almost as if heโd been waiting for that text?โAre you sure?โ Angelo narrowed his eyes while tucking a napkin into his shirt collar,

Royโs P.O.VThirty minutes later, Bryan made sure I was third-wheeling on my own date. With his good look and grace, Angelo was smitten with him and I was shoved out of their conversation, left to be picking at my food.I wasnโt sure if it was jealousy or anger but something that burning fiercely deep inside me. Bryan Anderson had no right to show his face in front of me. He had no fucking right to turn Angelo into a blushing mess that was trying to please him at all costs.Brimming with ill-concealed irritation, I cleared my throat and turned a sickly sweet smile on Bryan, โHowโs your wife, Ms. Andorra? Donโt you think sheโd be waiting up for you now?โI bit back a grin on seeing the dismayed look on Angeloโs face. He flushed a beet-red, probably thinking that heโd been flirting with a straight man while his date was right across.This was definitely a red flag and nothing was going to make me agree to date him.It seemed I was simply a magnet for men whoโd never truly care about me.

Royโs P.O.V His expression was like a cold star, his nose straight, and his silence was as cold as ice. Quite similar and also different from Bryanโs indifference, Cainโs indifference has a hint of malice and death, like a daffodil that died quietly. โLittle bunny,โ A smirk pulled the sides of his lips up as he pushed back his head and took a swig from the bottle in his hands. โDonโt call me that.โ I snapped, my voice had a familiar shake in it as a lump formed in my throat, โWhat are you doing here?โ โItโs a club. A public place Roy,โ He stood before me, looking down at me through his nose with a mixture of lust and loathing. I knew that look too well. Itโs as if two parts of him foughtโthe part that liked men and the part that loathed the idea of men being togetherโand the latter always wins in the end. Eff, I shouldnโt have drunk so much. The world was starting to have a blurriness to it. โYouโre right. It is truly a public place which means you donโt have to be in front of m

โYou can make it all better by leaving me alone.โHe stood in a darkened corner of the club, questioning what was left of his sanity for stalking Roy. But seeing Roy kiss Angelo through the CCTV footage had flipped a dormant switch in him and he knew he could no longer stay away, blood oath be damned.Which was exactly what led him to crash the date Roy was having. Itโd been a coincidence that he saw Roy at that restaurant. It was true that the restaurant was a cheap, homely place and was far from his usual taste but his international business partner had insisted on a local seafood restaurant to give him the feel of a local during his stay in Louisiana.Then while engaging in small talk with the man, Bryan had been texting Roy on his phone, smiling lightly at his pretense of offhanded replies when his eyes had strayed over and halted on that mop of short dark hair that shined under the fluorescent lights.Then he noticed that Angelo guy seating across the table from him, looking at h

โCain isnโt just a businessman,โ Roy whispered, seating across Bryan in his limo. โHe runs an underground drug chain. Heโs like a mafia don.โHe gulped from the water bottle Bryan had tossed at him.โOh, I know.โ Bryan replied expressionlessly, while his eyes roved over the newspaper opened on his crossed legs, โThatโs why I refused to do business with him. What I want to know is what business you have with him.โโI have nothing to do with him!โ Roy squealed in a high-pitched voice, flushing when carpalia who was driving cleared his throat, โCould you bring up the divider?โBryan glanced up at him for a second before leaning over in his seat and pressing a button that brought up the soundproofed glass that divided the back compartment from the front.Roy swallowed before he continued, โI was young, broken, and lonely.

Inside the poorly lit cold room lay a young boy on a big, soft, and luxurious bed, whimpering and cowering in trepidation. For someone whoโd voluntarily come to a place, the treatment he received so far differed from that of a prisoner.Dressed in a sweatshirt that had ridden up to expose the pale skin of his abdomen and low-hanging ripped jeans, he wished the temperature of the room could be increased a bit to ward off the cold settling on his exposed skin.The young boy had smooth, almost translucent skin that reflected the dull glow of the red bulb located in the center of the roomโs ceiling.His small oval shaped eyes were blindfolded tightly with a black piece of fabric that felt rough against the softness of his cheeks. One could tell he was terrified from the way he clenched and unclenched his fists which it was tightly strapped to the bed.His feet and hands were splayed apart, and tied to the bed posts.With a small "click", the door opened and his soul almost left his body.

A year afterโฆBryan Anderson and Roy Jordan had come a long way since Roy first walked into the office building of Anderson Inc. They had overcome many obstacles, enemies, and secrets to become not only partners in work, but also in life. They had built a new company together, one that was innovative, ethical, and successful. They had also built a new family together, one that was loving, supportive, and diverse.As Roy sat in his office, he twirled the ring on his finger with a small smile. He still couldn't believe that he was married to Bryan, the man who had changed his life for the better. He glanced at the clock and saw that it was almost time for their weekly video call with their family. He picked up his phone and dialed Bryan's number."Hey, babe. Are you ready?" he asked."Almost. Just finishing up some paperwork. I'll be there in a minute," Bryan replied."Okay. Don't keep me waiting too long. I miss you," Roy said."I miss you too. Love you," Bryan said."Love you more," R

The next morning, Roy and Bryan walked to the throne room, where the test of blood was going to take place.They held hands as they walked, squeezing each other's fingers. They looked into each other's eyes, smiling bravely. They whispered words of encouragement and affection."Whatever happens, I love you," Roy said."I love you too," Bryan said.They reached the throne room, where a large crowd was waiting for them. They saw the King and Queen, who sat on their thrones, looking tense and worried. They saw their siblings, who stood by their sides, looking supportive and proud.Bryanโs eyes traveled across the room and he locked gazes with Alexander who stood by the side of the old maid, looking as cool as a cucumber but Bryan could smell his anxiety and fear from miles away. He was just faking the calm exterior.They saw the priestess of the blood, who held a silver dagger and a golden chalice, looking solemn and ominous.They felt a surge of fear and anxiety, but they did not let go

The queen sat on her bed, clutching a picture of Bryan in her hand. She looked at his smiling face and felt a pang of pain in her heart. She loved him more than anything in the world. He was her son, even if he was not her flesh and blood.She had given him her name, her love, and her protection. She had watched him grow into a handsome and brave young man, who had made her proud in every way.But now, everything was in doubt. A stranger had appeared, claiming to be the true prince and heir of the throne. He had challenged Bryan to a test of blood and truth, to prove his claim. And the ball was in her court to either agree to it, or trash it but it was the only way to settle the matter.The queen didn't want to believe it. She didn't want to doubt Bryan's identity or loyalty. She didn't want to risk losing him or hurting him. But she also didn't want to deny the possibility that the stranger was telling the truth. What if he was really her son? What if he was the child that had been t

The silence that followed Alexander's declaration was deafening. Everyone in the council chamber stared at him with disbelief, shock, or fear. Bryan felt his blood run cold as he looked into the eyes of the man who claimed to be the true. He wanted to deny it, to scream that it was a lie, but something in his gut told him it was true.He glanced at his father, the king, who sat on his throne with a pale and stunned expression. He had not said a word since Alexander entered the room. Bryan wondered what he was thinking, what he knew, what he had hidden all these years.He looked at his mother, the queen, who stood beside the king with a hand on his shoulder. She seemed equally shocked and speechless, but there was also a hint of fear in her eyes. Bryan wondered if she had any idea who Alexander was, or if she had ever suspected that the king had another asides Roy.He looked at the council members, who had been ready to vote on his motion to impeach the king.They were divided between

โYouโre going away again?โ They were having breakfast at their bedroomโs private balcony when Bryan shared his plans with RoyBryan touched his mouth with a napkin. โI have to. Just for a few days, I have to hunt down more vampires.โโButโฆโ Roy put his coffee cup down because his hands were shaking too much. Yes, Bryan was strong. But so were vampires. He had asked the twins about it, and they had not hesitated to tell his the truth since they also feared for Bryanโs life. Vampires were no longer bound by their consciences and were wont to do whatever it took to satisfy their greed and thirst for blood.โI have to do this myself, Roy. For Carpalia and Liam.โHe didnโt argue after that. โJust please donโt do anything rash.โHe laughed. โIโm not rash in any way.โHe held his tongue even though he so badly wanted to argue. He wasnโt rash as a rule, but he did tend to do things unthinkingly if it meant giving him another point to score over his father. The twins had told his that King Edr

โRoyโฆโBryan called out for Roy, his voice echoing through the empty hallway. He appeared almost instantly, standing outside his doorway. Bryan couldn't help but notice the anxious look in his eyes. He had been acting odd ever since they had returned from Carpalia's funeral two days ago. He had tried to ignore it, but his pacing and worried glances didn't go unnoticed.Without saying a word, he motioned for Roy to come closer. Roy walked towards him hesitantly, his eyes never leaving his face. As he stood before him, Bryan could sense his apprehension.Without warning, he pulled Roy to him, molding his body to his, as their lips touched in a kiss. He felt Roy stiffen when he cupped his butt as he continued kissing him. Roy was shocked, he didnโt know what to do but the sparks running through his body betrayed his desire for Bryan.A few moments later, Bryan pulled away and surveyed his dreamy expression with satisfaction.โWhat was that for?โ Roy whispered, touching his lips as if he

As Roy approached the animal, he couldn't help but feel a twinge of fear.He knew better than to let his guard down around wild creatures, especially one that looked so battered and bruised. Still, his heart ached at the sight of it. This was no Lycan that much was clear. Its fur was matted and caked in dirt, and its wounds were deep and angry."Hey there, little guy," he whispered, trying to project calmness and reassurance. The dog barked in response, but it didn't move or lunge at him, so he took another step closer."It's okay, I won't hurt you," he promised, as he reached out a tentative hand to touch its head. The dog's eyes followed his hand, and for a moment, it seemed like it might allow him touch its head. But then, without warning, it snapped and latched onto his hand, biting down hard.Roy gasped in pain and tried to pull away, but the dog's jaws were locked tight. Fear and adrenaline coursed through his body as he struggled to free himself, but it only seemed to make the

But Roy's sudden interference had thrown off his balance and the car swerved wildly, careening towards the massive tree."Bloody hell, Roy!" he swore, his voice filled with a mix of anger and fear. The car was hurtling towards the tree at breakneck speed, and he knew that if they collided, it would be a fatal crash. He would survive it and heal pretty quickly, but RoyโฆIn a split-second decision, he shifted into his wolf form, feeling the transformation rippling through his body. The sudden shift gave him the strength and agility to yank Roy from the passenger seat and leap out of the car, just as it collided with the tree.The impact was deafening, the sound of metal crunching and glass shattering filling the air. The car crumpled like a tin can, smoke billowing from the wreckage as it skidded to a stop.Roy was in shock, his body
