Down at the restaurant, the air between them had shifted. No more small talk and no more holding on as Emily drew in a breath.

“Luc, Dad’s request is for you to come back home. I believe he meant it.”

Lucas let out a short, humorless laugh and leaned back in his chair, shaking his head. “You’ve got to be kidding me, Em. He is certainly planning something else. And I’m not coming back.” His jaw tightened. “Didn’t he disown me? Locked my room, froze my account as if he gave me everything

    Then he carried everything to the dining table. He set down the plates. Two glasses, cutlery, and aA small bowl of salad. Lucas had just finished placing the last fork on the table when Alex said, “Yes, that's all, just let me know tomorrow when it's ready, okay.” Alex started walking towards the table, loosening his collar slightly as he ended the call.“Alright,” he said into the phone. “Handle it.” He dropped the phone on the table as his eyes landed on the dinner on the table. The apartment was spotless.Lucas was standing there adjusting the plates. Alex stood for a second, watching him quietly, a slow smile spreading across his face. “Wow,” he said. Lucas looked up. “What?” Alex walked closer, shaking his head in admiration. “I took a few minutes for one business call, and you transformed the entire place.” His eyes moved around the clean room, then back to Lucas.“Baby… are you secretly a magician?” Dinner passed easily between them. Between bit

    Lucas turned back to the stove, stirring the pot. “Go sit down,” he said, waving him away. “Let me finish up here. I don’t want to accidentally add extra spices because of your distraction.” Alex chuckled, leaned in, and pecked Lucas’s cheek again before walking toward the living room. Halfway there, he glanced around the apartment again. The slightly messy couch. The displaced chair. The missing boxes that used to sit near the wall.He smirked slightly. “So…” Alex said casually, pretending not to know a thing, “What happened here? Did Nathan move out or something?” Lucas answered while still focused on the food. “Yeah. He got an emergency transfer to the Fairbanks branch.” Alex raised his brows. “Oh? He’s lucky then. I heard the boss stays there most of the time, and they pay higher salaries too.” Lucas nodded. “Yeah, and my friend was pretty happy to leave.” Alex leaned against the wall, watching Lucas move around the kitchen. “I guess that means you’ll be lo

  • UNCHARTED PATH    Chapter 111. I love only you

    Lucas picked up the phone, glanced at the missed calls, then tossed it casually onto the couch.He walked into the bedroom and changed into a loose vest and a pair of shorts, his movements relaxed and unhurried. “If he’s coming,” Lucas muttered to himself, running a hand through his hair, “I might as well start making us an early dinner.”He headed straight for the kitchen.Soon the soft sounds of chopping and sizzling filled the apartment. About fifteen minutes later, the beep, beep sound of the door code echoed through the apartment.Lucas didn’t even turn around.Instead, he chuckled under his breath. “I knew it, Alex,” he murmured while stirring the pot. “I knew you wouldn't waste a second before showing up.” The door clicked open. Lucas kept cooking as if nothing had happened, deliberately ignoring the entrance. A moment later, footsteps sounded behind him. Alex stepped inside the apartment and stopped abruptly. His eyes swept across the living room. He pretentio

  • UNCHARTED PATH    Chapter 110. Mine alone

    Silence 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

  • UNCHARTED PATH    Chapter 109. Pretty possessive

    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

    It was almost seven when Lucas and Emily stood at the entrance to the huge hall for check-in. They had called their father ahead to alert him of their presence. After checking in, they walked into the grand hall. It was filled with excitement. The guests, dressed to the nines, and Lucas and Emil

    “Hello, boss,” came the voice on the other end. Alex opened the door and stepped down from the car, pacing around, his finger tapping on the body of the car. “Dan, I need you to do something for me.” Alex’s voice was cold and clipped. “Listen,” he said. “I need you to investigate somet

One last thing—I swear!” He stuck his head in. “Just smile if it’s a yes. Do you like him? Is he your spa

A smile tugged at his lips as his eyes stayed locked on the rider ahead. “Beautiful one, where are you heading in such a hurry?” he muttered, voice low with amusement and urgency. “I just need a minute… just your name and number.
