Mason.
Kai is a very lively yet calm kid. l smile happily at how he tittered out excitedly over us spending time together, we don't get to do this all time. l would be happy too if my Father ever wants to spend time with me like this.We got to the City's biggest mall in a few minutes and l waited patiently for Kai to unbuckle his seatbelt."You can wait in the car, David.""No sir, l can't do that.""I'm not asking you to, I'm telling you."" I'm only doing my job, Sir.""How long have you known me for, David?"" 10 years Sir.”“And you should know l hate going around with you and four more trailing at my back like l committed murder? Like I'm the most wanted criminal alive in the city. Look, I'm not going for an official gathering, l want to spend time with my Son?" I expressed, rolling my eyes annoyingly.David is my longest bodyguard, he is also my driver, maybe because my father assigned him to me personally when l was 16 years old."Let's go, Kai.”"You know I would always give you private time when it is required but certainly not in a public place," He confessed sincerely, which made me ignore him because l will be in my best mood today and peacefully spend the evening with my son. And because he follows me around like this is one of the reasons I can't find true love and have a love life and get stuck between loneliness and anxiety. No genuine person would want to approach me like this.I'm 26 years old but my freedom is still based on my Father's decisions.l held Kai on his wrist tightly as we stepped inside the store, “What flavour do you want Kai Kai?" l asked, glancing at all the corners of his face for answers, yet after much thought in his head, he couldn't decide. "I will eat what Papa chooses," He giggled, having the cutest smile on his lips."Why do you have to be so cute Kai?" I let out happily pinching on his soft cheeks.I got some strawberries, different colours of jelly toppings and some red velvet cakes for him and some chocolate for myself.The waiter won't stop looking at me like l had something on my face. Her blonde hair and brown eyes, she looks closely at me and glances at Kai at the same time.I waited patiently for her service and swapped my card where she showed it to me. My phone vibrates in my pocket.Father had resented the location and the picture of the girl l was supposed to meet with. l let out a sigh and bite my lips nervously.“We should leave if you are no longer comfortable Sir," David suggested.l immediately put a smile on my face pretending to be alright, "I want to spend time with Kai," l muttered, finger stressing through his black hair. Kai is the cutest kid I've ever seen.“Go ahead and book a movie ticket, " I tell David, “ We will watch it together when he is done with his ice cream, right Kai? Is that okay with you?" I smiled plainly without taking my eyes off him as he nodded with his mouth messy with ice cream all over.We watched a series of Tarzan for two hours that Kai had always liked yet he fell asleep before the movie came to an end. I raised him in my arms accordingly and made sure he rested tenderly on my shoulders.We got back to the house but Kai was still fast asleep, l picked up his backpack in my left hand carefully."Let me help you with that, Sir."I gave Kai's backpack to David as l robbed Kai's back so he could sleep more smoothly. l walked through the hallway and directly to his room, his Nanny was yet to sleep, although she asked me to hand Kai to her. I ignored her and continued to his room. l laid him on his bed and gazed at my little man sleeping, I took off his shoes and pulled the blanket over him. l caressed his hair tenderly, “I love you so much,” l coo aloud, probably so he can hear me in his dreams.l looked around Kai's room, l didn't even realise how my baby boy had grown. I can't remember the last time I came to his room like this, he had always liked his room interior emulated with a millennium falcon. He has really grown, l made it a good deal to spend a lot on ‘The Leave room to play’. The chaise rocking chair for reading brought the room to life with blue toile wallpaper and framed botanical print, leaving enough space to play.A lot has changed, he has more comic books on his shelf, it wasn't here the last time I was here. l walked towards the shelf, to familiarise myself with his room but my phone rang in my pocket.I quickly brought it out from my pocket, cursing under my breath to not wake Kai up with the noise. It was a call from Andrew, oh I totally forgot I was supposed to meet with him.“What time are you coming? Should I pick you up?" He says before I could even utter a word."No, not all. l was out with Kai, we just got home. I will meet you shortly.”"Alright, I'm waiting for you,” He hangs up immediately. What's with him? Is he drunk already?I would love to stay here with Kai tonight. l sighed particularly at how peaceful he was sleeping, I bent towards him and left a tiny kiss on his forehead. “l will see you in the morning baby, l would love to stay more with you or sleep here tonight, but Papa has to go," l whispered, caressing his forehead. l stood upright as David came in unpacking Kai's backpack."Keys to the car, David,” l brink my hand towards him.""Going somewhere? I thought you were staying the night with Kai?” He asked curiously."No.""I will take you to your destination then,” He muttered, dropping down everything he was doing."Don't worry I'm going somewhere safe, I just need a few minutes to have a drink with Andrew at the usual spot.""More reasons you should let me drive.""I'm fine, give me the keys.""Give me a call if you need anything,” He said, throwing the keys at me.It's a good thing that my privacy is always protected by David. l can't possibly be going with him to a date looking like an ex-convicted drug lord.He knows so much about me that I sometimes consider him a brother. I understand that he wants to protect me and all, but from what exactly?I didn't have time to prepare for something fresh to wear, was not in the mood and didn't want to keep Andrew waiting.I blinked at the beep sound of the car popping open. l hastily stormed away, it was already the third time I'm meeting with Andrew. We would always hang out at this private Tequila Bar, we would always talk, drink and have a good laugh together. l know by the way he looks at me that he wants me, l hope this works out for me because I like this man. He is hot, hardworking, energetic and very simple-minded. For Goodness sake l wish he could be the one for me already.I got to the entrance parking lot, stepped out and threw my key to one of the guards like he knew his job already. I slipped my left hand in my pocket as l loosen the tie on my neck with the other and went directly to the private room.Spotlight grazed him, I stood there and admired how he sat back, spreading his legs and resting his head on the divan. His black shirt was all unbuttoned to his chest level.l chuckled while making my way to him."Did l keep you waiting?”"No, l just got here,” He sat up, eyeing me teasingly as he brought his face closer to mine and left a perk on my cheeks."You are telling me you just got here but it doesn't look like it.”"Are you being paranoid, Mason?" He asked gazing lustfully at me."No I'm not, it's obvious that you have been drinking for a while now and …” He threw himself over me, pushing me to lay my back against the soft sofa before I could complete my sentence.“Are you suspecting me, Mason?" He grumbled, slowly looking at every corner of my face, down to my neck.l looked around nervously and uncomfortably."What do you mean if l suspect you? I only said…” He cut my words short again as he placed his lips on mine and sucked on me, gushing it like his life depended on it. He swirled his tongue on it leaving it to make slurry sounds as he moaned in his throat, he used his right leg to spread my legs open and continued to smooch on my mouth giving me no space to breathe."Andrew… I…I," I stuttered on my words yet he didn't say anything or look at me. Instead, he buried his face in my neck and sucked on it like he wanted to eat up a whole snack.“Andrew st..op, please.”"Why?" He whispered in a raspy voice, at that instant my phone vibration intercepted the heated moment."That can wait, Mason,” He mumbled in my ears, kissing my neck having my body decked with goosebumps."No, l need to answer it. My secretary doesn't call me after work except because it is important,” l sat up as he beat himself up in frustration, he sat back and gulped down the whole content in his glass."Excuse me,” l uttered grimly making my way to the bathroom."Rhoda?""Sorry to disturb you at this time, Sir,” She pleaded regretfully."It's a good thing you called, what is the matter?"“Your father wants you and Kai back to Lauderhill for his birthday."“I know next-tomorrow is his birthday, l don't remember making plans to visit him.”“That is why I’m calling to inform you, Sir. The preparation has already been made, your flight is set to leave at 12:15 pm, you'll be returning in four days. l will send you details for your returning schedule and that will be all, Sir.""Thank you, Rhoda."I crammed my phone back into my pocket and stared at the mirror furiously. My father hasn't asked me home for years and l didn't bother going, he must have a reason for inviting me and I know it's surely bad news.Leo.I put both my hands in my pocket as l went on my heels. Zena and My mother were already walking toward the main entrance."Mother?”"Oh, my baby?" She bellowed, pulling me in for a warm hug."Have missed you so much, Son.""We merely saw each other some days ago, Mother.”"It doesn't matter, I always want to be with you," She says, caressing my face like she needs to be sure that I'm okay. It had been years since Mother moved away from the Packhouse yet she visits the Pack as Mother Luna a few days a week.Zena yawned rudely and made her way inside the house. "Let's reserve hugs and pleasantries for later, I'm hungry.""Zena you should learn to behave yourself, you're a woman for goodness sake.”"Save your scolding for later, Mother. Let's eat,” Zena replied back, drawing a chair out to take her seat."Come this way Mother, l made your favourite dishes.""Oh my, Leo my son. Oh you have done so much, l hope your sister learns from you. She stays with you everyday but I haven't see
Mason.I kept gazing at the mirror with much patience and toleration. l closed my eyes tight and took a deep breath trying not to get frustrated or get overwhelmed by the situation, which is what my father does on a normal day.I shouldn't be surprised yet it has me fuming angrily, l switched on the faucet and splashed some water on my face to ease my mind.If l didn't receive a call back there would Andrew have gone ahead with it? We have met a few times and it wouldn't kill me if I just have sex with him. Wouldn't it be too sudden? Maybe it's his way of expressing his love and feeling to his other half but he hasn't told me he likes me either. And if l don't try it or do what he wants l wouldn't know.I'm really tired of having to try like this, maybe if I confront him about it he might tell me how he feels about me. But what is the point?I haven't been home for years and staying there for four days wouldn't kill me, so I took myself back to the lounge.“Hey?" I chirped at Andrew, s
Mason.“This way Young Master."l nodded in agreement even though I didn't recognise their faces but I already knew they were sent by my Father as they called me by my home name. l held Kai's hand and helped him get his feet down, "Let's go, Kai.”l hurried as fast as my legs could go, with Kai keeping up with me. The warm sun hit my skin as we walked to the plane, l smiled at my favourite Mason's Dassault falcon 2000. The very private jet that has a compatible luxury size and can go in an intercontinental range of 3,130miles."Kai, let me help you,” I held him up in my arms and went up the stairs.“Kai sit with me okay?” I chuckled as he smiled at me, l began to fix him up comfortably and extreme safety caution.“Do you want anything to eat Kai?"“No, Papa.""Sir, I can take care of Kai. In case you have anything to work on, it might be uncomfortable and distracting for you.""No, not all,” l smiled at Rachel, “Take it like it is a little vacation for me and Kai. l will take care of h
Leo.I stood in front of the mirror confidently smirking at how good l looked.I finished with the last button before a knock came on the door and l already knew it was Zena."You look so good brother, now let's see who'd be the one to get attention,” She said, gazing at me with glamour in her eyes.“I don't wish to seek attention in the human world. They have nothing on me and it doesn't really matter because they don't exist to me as much as l don't exist to them.”"Whatever you say, Alpha Leo. The car is ready, we should start going."I glanced at the mirror again before making my way out of the room and headed to the latest Bentley Bentayga AWD l bought for me myself in the early days of the new year.“I will drive,” My Beta, Auden said, getting into the driver's seat."You look so good, Leo. I'm jealous of going with you now, you deserve all the spotlight,” Zena praised, staring at me like we don't stay under the same roof together all the time.“Are you just seeing me for the fir
Mason.The party had begun and I was still in my room. I really wanted to avoid standing beside My father to receive the guests, he is just going to rant at me in front of everybody. He is going to tell them how much of a failure I am, how I have not gotten married at this age.I don't want that right now.I will make my way there when he goes on the stage. His attention on me would revert a bit.I walked back and forth helplessly.“Papa?” Kai, called out to me. He sat on the bed gazing at me like l was performing a school dance in front of him. I was totally lost in my thoughts that I forgot that he was here all along. I had told the nanny to leave after she helped dress him up.l'm so fucking nervous.“We will leave soon, Kai,” I answered, not knowing what to say next. Maybe he should go with his nanny and look around instead of sticking with me in the room like this.Gathering amid these toxic businessmen with their eyes on every petal of gold that they see. The prejudiced words a
Leo.I walked out of him as if my life depended on it.Zena has just saved the day and she has no idea what she has saved her elder brother from. She saved my life because I had no idea of what I wanted to say to him next.My Mate!Mason Alien is my fated mate? Those are not the words I wanted to say to my mate when we finally met each other after years of waiting for each other.I couldn't just put in the right words. Mason is fucking human and how am l supposed to get him to understand the love and mate bond we share? How are we supposed to smile at each other as werewolves would do after we detect each other's scent?That nuisance had his bodyguard punch me in the face.His insatiable eyes were on me… He was staring at me like a mannequin with his clothes. And he has a fucking son!My mate has a child, he fucking has a child!What am I supposed to do?Firstly, what is that uncultured situation I found myself in? Who dares to accuse the great Alpha Of Crescent Moon Pack of kidnappi
Mason.I stood up immediately as the middle-aged doctor walked out of Kai’s ward. He has a thick frame and round eyeglasses that happen to fit his face so well, “How is he, doctor?” I ask, gazing at every corner of his face for the sincere truth.“You don't have anything to worry about, Mr Mason. He is doing good at the moment, I would like to keep him for the next 24 hours or more to be sure he doesn't develop acute Stress Disorder or he didn't get water into his lungs. And for further observations, he is currently sleeping. He will come around in two hours,” He said with a sincere smile on his face and I let out a sigh of relief.“That is all for now, I will see you around in a few hours,” He tapped on my shoulder and walked away. I rushed into the room immediately, and there Kai was sleeping peacefully. I grabbed a stool from the side and sat close to the bed. I tugged his stray hair out of his face as he pouted, his usual habit. I held his hand into mine.“You scared me so much,
Mason."What do you mean you just saw Papa, Kai? I'm right here,” I tell him slowly, going down on my knees to be on the same level as him.I held his face so he could look at me but the disappointed look on his face broke my heart, it made me so sad."Is everything alright?” Andrew's voice behind me. I held Kai's hands even tighter as he wouldn't say anything to me.“Kai, what is wrong?"“I'm sorry Papa. I'm sure that I saw him look at us just now,” He muffled.“I think we should get to the car, Mason. You both can talk there,” Andrew said, rubbing my shoulders in comfort.“Let go, Kai,” I went on my steps, looking around curiously to see if there might be any truth in what Kai said.Who could it be?We walked quietly to where the car was parked. I got into the backseat with Kai even though Andrew had opened the passenger seat for me, “l will stay with Kai,” I explained to break the awkward silence and he nodded in agreement and strode back to the driver's seat.“Are you sure we shou
