PROLOGUE

Ten years ago...Raffy didn't know how long he had been just staring at his reflection in the mirror. What he knew was that it had been too long, that he had to stop now, or else he was going to be late for his flight.He glanced at his wristwatch. His flight was at three p.m., and it was already twelve noon, which meant he only had three hours to reach the airport.A deep sigh came out of his mouth. He really needed to leave if he didn't want to be left behind by the plane…Or maybe that was what he truly wanted—"No," Raffy said to himself while shaking his head, putting a stop to all the thoughts he was having. He looked at himself in the mirror again, and this time his eyes showed determination. "You've already made your decision, Raffy. You can't back out now."And so with that, he took one more look at his sullen face in the mirror and fixed his clothes before he finally grabbed his two suitcases and went out of his room.He initially planned to just leave right away and not loo

CHAPTER 1

The present...Raffy grinned, leaning against the counter as he watched and listened to the group of elementary-schoolers arguing over which book was better.One of the four children, a young boy, asked one of the girls, "How did you know that book is better than this one when you haven't even read it yet?""Because my brother said so!" the girl responded with conviction, as if her answer were enough to settle the matter."And you just believe him? What if he's lying?""My brother does not lie! He hates lying!"The other boy piped up, "Everyone lies, Evie. I'm sure his telling you he didn't lie was already a lie.""That's not true! Take that back, you meanie!" The girl screamed, her eyes welling up with tears."Stop ganging on her, you two!" The second girl said, taking her friend's hand and holding it tight to console her.But the boys continued to press their point, and the girls retorted. Soon, Raffy's little bookshop was filled with the sound of debate, attracting the attention of

CHAPTER 2

Andrew felt like his world had stopped spinning. It's like time has been paused. He was lost for words, and his gaze zeroed in on the man in front of him—the one he had so many memories about and had tried to bury.“Andrew…” he heard Raffy, looking equally shocked, utter.It had been so long since that voice called his name, and Andrew thought he would never get the chance to hear his name being said like that again.He didn't know how long he had been staring. He wanted to take his eyes off and pull himself together, wanted to act like he didn't give a fuck about seeing Raffy again, but his body had already betrayed him. He couldn't stop staring, looking at the few changes in Raffy's look and body.Ten years had passed. Raffy now looked older. He was still that attractive-looking beta, but in a mature way. And his body… Raffy used to be lean, but now, although he's wearing a long-sleeved shirt, it is quite obvious that he has put on some muscle here and there.“Sir?”Andrew’s attenti

CHAPTER 3

“I will be back, Raffy. And I hope that by the time we see each other again, you will have already made the smartest and best decision. And you already know what that is.”Raffy's hold on his fork had tightened as he kept remembering those words Andrew had said before he left.'Who does he think he is to tell me what to do? Make the smartest and best decision? I already did it by not letting him buy our land and telling him to leave!'He shook his head. It'd been ten years, and he thought Andrew would have already changed for the better, especially after everything he'd been through. But disappointedly, that wasn't the case at all.Andrew was still the same arrogant and self-centered alpha."Are you okay, Dad?"Raffy got pulled out of his deep thoughts after hearing his son's voice.He looked at Lance, whose forehead had turned into a knot."You seem out of it, Dad," Lance added, then asked him again, "Is it because of that stranger a while ago? What did he tell you?"He smiled at his

CHAPTER 4

Despite telling himself so many times that he needed to stop thinking too much about Raffy and instead think of what he should be doing for his project to finally start, Andrew couldn't take his mind off of Raffy. Even after busying himself, the moment he wasn't occupied, even if it was only for a few seconds, Raffy would immediately fill his thoughts, leaving him with conflicted emotions. "Sir?" Sally's voice brought him out of his reverie. He hadn't even realized that he was sitting languidly—not very suitable for someone that holds the highest position in his own company and was supposed to do his job, which he clearly had forgotten already because he was busy thinking of someone that should have no business to camp inside his head. Sally stared at him in confusion, then turned into amusement. Sally knew he was thinking of something that didn't have anything to do with work and their company. And knowing Sally, he knew he would be bombarded with questions at any moment,

CHAPTER 5

"Do you have everything you need? Your books? Is your phone with you? Is it fully charged? What about your snacks? Lunch? What else do you—""Dad," Lance said, making Raffy stop and look at him. "I’m just going on a field trip, not to war or something. Can you please relax?"Raffy took a deep breath, then he pulled his son along with him. They sat on the couch, side by side.He faced Lance again. And his son could already tell that he was about to fuss once again, so before that happened, Lance had already beaten him to it."I'll be fine, Dad. Our teachers will be with us. They won't let anything bad happen to us...to me."Raffy knew that. But he still couldn't help himself to worry.It wouldn't be Lance's first time going on a field trip. But it'll be the first time that Lance will go without him.And he, being the worrywart that he had become since Lance came into his life, couldn't stop overthinking.What if something happens to his son? Yes, the teachers will be with the class, bu

CHAPTER 6

"You didn't have to come here. I could have handled this myself."Andrew withdrew his gaze from Raffy's bookshop to look at Sally as he answered her, "Obviously, you weren't able to handle it yourself, since many of them still didn't want to leave this place."Sally turned speechless, then hurt and shame filled her face.Andrew knew he was being harsh. But he was also speaking nothing but facts. Sally tried to resolve this all by herself, but nothing happened. Nothing had improved, and no problem had been resolved. And the investors were getting impatient. They wanted to see results, or even just an improvement, and yet they couldn't show anything. That was why he finally decided to show up and do it himself. If Sally couldn't do anything about the landowners' stubbornness, then maybe he could. After all, pursuing was one of his greatest talents.He already had a plan. Executing it was the only thing left for him to do.But meeting Raf

CHAPTER 7

Raffy was restless. It was already midnight, and by that time, he was supposed to be deep in sleep already. But because of a certain someone, because of a certain situation that had happened in his bookshop that morning, sleep had become unachievable for him again.Since the day Andrew showed up and barged into his life unannounced, sleep, which used to be easily attainable for him, became something he had to work so hard for.With a grunt of frustration, he got out of his bed and did what he always does whenever he couldn't fall asleep. He tried to read, watch some boring movies, exercised for more than twenty minutes, drank a glass of milk, and made his brain busy and tired by computing his expenses. But despite doing all that, sleep still evaded him like a fucking plague."Fuck!" he exclaimed, almost throwing away the documents he was reading.He huffed, then stood, and headed towards the shower that was connected to both his and his son's room.

CHAPTER 8

A stalker. That was what Andrew came across at that moment, hiding from the side, trying to make his presence not be known.It was already three in the afternoon, and he was supposed to still be in his office by that time. And yet here he was, doing everything he could to not get people's attention, such as not using his usual car and driving himself instead of calling his driver and wearing casual clothes.Don't get him wrong. He had not come back because he wanted to see Raffy. He only came because he needed to check the entire area again.How he dreamed about the days when Raffy would help him during his ruts had nothing to do with him coming back to Maplewood the day after what happened at Raffy's bookshop. Like he told Sally when amusement filled her face when he told her he was going back to Maplewood: he was only there for business and nothing more.Since everyone in Maplewood had already referred to Raffy as their representative, it was only right for him to know what the beta

CHAPTER 9

The weather was fantastic, perfect even, with the sun being bright and warm. It was the kind of weather that should make people happy with huge smiles on their faces.But that was not what was happening. Instead of a huge smile, a frown was on Lance's face. The young boy looked pissed, worried, and confused, all at the same time. And of course, Raffy immediately took notice of it.Raffy stopped what he was doing to face his son beside him. "What's with that face? Did something happen at school?""Nothing happened," Lance timidly answered."Nothing happened and yet you look like the world is about to collapse. You've been like that since yesterday. So tell me. What is going on?"Lance shook his head, still not looking at him as his eyes remained on the table while absentmindedly flipping the pages of his book. "There's really nothing, Dad.""Lance," Raffy made his voice sound firm, wanting to let his son know that he was not buying his lie and that he wouldn't stop asking until he got
