MasukSilence filled the office. Then Alex scoffed softly, shaking his head. “Nah.” His voice dropped into a low, possessive whisper. “That’s not possible.” His eyes locked onto Lucas’s image on the screen. A dangerous glint flickered in them. “You don't baby, and you will not because you’re mine.” A slow, chilling smile spread across Alex’s face. “And mine alone.” Alex grabbed his phone and dialed Lucas immediately. His eyes were still focused on the surveillance screen. Lucas’s phone lit up on the table. Alex watched as he glanced at it, paused for a second, then casually placed it back on the opposite side of the table. Alex blinked in surprise. His grip on the phone tightened. “What the heck, Lucas?” he muttered, irritation rising in his voice. “Why are you not picking up my call?” A sharp breath escaped him as he ran a hand through his hair, frustration simmering under his skin. “Seriously?” Alex shut down the surveillance system with a quick motion, the screen
Nathan paused. Then his face softened. “Aww… someone’s missing me already?” Before Lucas could react, Nathan pulled him into a tight hug. “That’s sweet,” Nathan said warmly. “I’ll miss you too.” Lucas hugged him back, though his chest felt strangely heavy. Nathan pulled away and grinned.“Don’t worry. Anytime I get up to three days off, I’ll fly back and spend time with you, hmm.” He added jokingly, “That is, if Alex allows me to get close to you. He can be pretty possessive sometimes.” Lucas blinked. “Really?” Nathan laughed. “Oh yeah, he definitely can be.” Then his tone softened. “But he’s a good man, Luc. A really good lover. If you can tolerate his stubborn side, he’ll walk to the moon for you.” Nathan closed his last suitcase and stood up, glancing around the apartment. A nostalgic smile crossed his face. “You know,” he said thoughtfully, “The rent for this place expires in three months.” Lucas looked up. Nathan shrugged. “If you want to keep the a
He folded his arms and shook his head slowly. “Alex” he murmured under his breath, “I would prefer you talk to me than send me fruits.” His irritation returned in a rush.Without touching the tray, Lucas grabbed his phone and opened the office door. A moment later, he stepped out and headed straight for the exit. If Alex didn’t want to talk, fine.He wasn’t going to sit there like a pampered guest either. So Lucas left the company and headed home. Meanwhile, the instant elevator door slid shut after Alex stepped into it and pressed the button for the conference floor. He pulled out his phone and then dialed a number he hadn’t called in months. The line rang twice before a cheerful voice answered. “Hey, Alex! It’s been a while. What do I owe this call?” Alex leaned casually against the elevator wall. “I need a favor,” he said calmly. “And if I remember correctly, you owe me one.” .On the other end, Jathan Peters, the second son of the powerful Kornelly family and the m
With that, the doctor turned and walked back toward his office. Alex removed his hand from the phone mouthpiece and spoke again. “Margaret, I’ll be there in twenty minutes.” He ended the call and slipped the phone back into his pocket before turning fully to Lucas. His expression softened immediately. “So,” he asked, searching Lucas’s face, “Anything to worry about?” Lucas shook his head gently. “No, honey. Nothing serious. They just want to run some tests, to check if there are any changes in my hormones.” Alex’s brows pulled together slightly. “Are you sure you want to go through with that?” Lucas nodded. “Yes. I’d like to know too.” A small smile crept onto his lips. “You never can tell, miracles do exist, right?” Alex stared at him for a moment, his eyes warming with affection.“Hmm,” he murmured before pulling Lucas into a tight but gentle embrace. “Finding you was one of the greatest miracles I’ve had in two years.” Lucas melted into the hug, resting briefl
Dr. Peters nodded slowly, clearly intrigued. “Alright,” he said, tapping a pen lightly against the desk as he thought. “That’s an important detail.” Just then, a soft knock came from the door. A nurse stepped in holding a file.“Lucas’s card, sir.” “Thank you,” Dr. Peters said, taking it and opening the folder.He scanned through the records for a moment before looking up again, his expression thoughtful. “Lucas,” he said carefully, “what you’re describing could be a very significant step in your development.” Lucas felt his heart begin to pound. “Is… is that good?” he asked nervously. Dr. Peters smiled again. “Yes,” he replied. “It means your body might finally be responding the way we hoped it would.” Alex felt a wave of relief pass through him. He squeezed Lucas’s hand again. But the doctor wasn’t finished. “So,” Dr. Peters continued gently. “Think carefully… what exactly was happening when it occurred?” Lucas’s eyes slowly drifted toward Alex again. A
Alex kissed him back immediately, his arms sliding around Lucas’s back as he pulled him closer. The kiss deepened naturally, warm, slow, and full of the sweet affection that had grown between them overnight. For a moment the world seemed to disappear. When they finally pulled apart, Alex rested his forehead lightly against Lucas’s and cupped his cheek.“Baby…” he whispered softly. Right at that moment his phone buzzed loudly on the bedside table.Alex groaned under his breath and muttered with a crooked smirk, “Damn… joy killers.” Lucas burst into a small laugh and gently untangled himself from Alex’s arms. “Time to shower,” he said, sliding off the bed. The phone buzzed again. Alex glanced at the screen. It was Margaret. He sighed and picked it up.“Yeah, Margaret?” Her voice immediately launched into a reminder about the meeting he had scheduled that morning concerning a project proposal. Alex half-listened, answering with short responses while rubbing his eyes.
