CHAPTER 19.1

It has been two weeks since Andrew decided to leave Maplewood District and go back to the city, living again in his original home.There were so many times that the words coming out of his mouth were totally different from his actions. But this time, he was determined to fulfill what he had said to Raffy.It was hard, especially after he finally got a little closer to Lance. There were instances that he almost got tempted to go back to the district, but with great determination, and with Sally's intervention, he never made it.But the time has arrived for him to face Raffy once again.They were on their way to the same hotel in the Maplewood District for a formal negotiation meeting, and yes, Raffy will be there.Andrew was nervous. He was restless. He couldn't stay still. He was trying not to look like he was, but he was failing completely.Sally, who was sitting in the passenger seat and was looking at him through the rearview mirror, couldn't take it anymore."Will you please relax

CHAPTER 19.2

Raffy was lost for words. His eyes went wide and his mouth gaped.When he was informed about the negotiation meeting, he already had a hunch that things would go this way, that he would be mocked the moment he continued to refuse, which was why he was already prepared for it. What he was not prepared for was Andrew reprimanding his fellow alpha businessmen and picking his side.Something inside him rejoiced, though he tried not to acknowledge it. Just like how he refused to acknowledge the fact that the reason why he even bothered to come to the meeting even though he hadn't changed his mind was because he knew Andrew would be present.Although Andrew had left physically, the memories of him and the night they shared together stayed with Raffy. He couldn't get him out of his head. He had been hunting him as if he were making sure that Raffy would never forget him.As if he could do that.If forgetting him was easy and possible, Raffy would have already done it before.And it seemed th

CHAPTER 20

"Andrew..."Andrew immediately cut off Sally. "I am entrusting you to take care of everything. And talk to Raffy. Ask him what he wants. Whatever it is, whatever demands he has, tell him we'll do everything in our power to make it happen.""Are you okay?" Sally asked, sensing that he was not in the right state. That was also why she kept following him till he got out of the hotel, when she usually stayed behind to de-escalate the situation when trouble happened during a meeting."I will be once I get home."Sally gasped when she finally realized what was happening to him. "You're in a—""Yes," Andrew answered right away. "I'll go home. You can contact the other driver to take you home instead once everything is settled here. I won't be around for a few days, so do what you always do."Before Sally could respond, Andrew had already got inside the car and left."Drive faster," he told his driver through gritted teeth. He was desperate to go home where he could be alone and tame his rut.

CHAPTER 21

"Did I do something wrong?"That question from Lance caused Raffy to immediately stop eating. He turned to his son, only to see the kid looking so dejected. Lance even stopped eating and was just playing with his food using his fork.Raffy sighed. "Stop playing with your food," he told his son, making sure his voice was firm enough for Lance to take him seriously. Well, his son had always taken him seriously. He couldn't remember a day where Lance had disrespected him. The kid would sometimes, which meant very rarely, go against his words and wishes, but none were too dramatic to be considered disrespectful or rude.Lance started eating again, but after just a few spoonfuls, he dropped his fork and knife and leaned on the backrest of the chair he was sitting on, his arms crossed over his chest. He was staring at his father as if Raffy had wronged him."Did you really try talking to him?"Lance sighed and answered his son's question for the third time. "I already told you that I did, d

CHAPTER 22

The Maplewood District felt different.Raffy noticed it the moment he opened his bookshop.He had actually started noticing the changes in the atmosphere a few days ago, but it was only now that they truly hit him.There were still residents going to work, children heading to school, and people stopping by for coffee before starting their day. However, there were noticeably fewer people than normal. And the vibe of the whole district was just...sad and gloomy.Raffy wanted to believe that it was just a slow morning. But as the hours passed, he was finding it hard to believe it now.By noon, only a handful of customers had entered his bookshop, and that wasn't normal.Many of the residents in the Maplewood district were actually big readers, be they books, magazines, or newspapers. Especially newspapers.'What is happening? Could it be that the redevelopment plan was starting to affect everyone?'That couldn't be denied, though. Sure, they were still fighting and nothing was set in sto

CHAPTER 23

Lost in thought, Andrew was completely absorbed in reviewing the architectural blueprints laid out before him. He was leaning so low over the desk that his tie brushed over the paper, his brow furrowed in concentration.The sudden, electronic buzz of the intercom shattered the quiet of his office, forcing him to change his focus. He pressed the receiver."Yes?" Andrew asked, his tone clipped."Apologies for the interruption, sir," the speaker buzzed in response. "Mr. Castor is here to see you. He doesn't have an appointment, but he insists it's urgent."Now his full attention was on his secretary—he has a couple of secretaries to lighten Sally's job."Is he alone?""Yes, sir."Andrew nodded as if his secretary could see him, and then he said, "Let him in. Also, hold all my calls and let the team know I'm unavailable. We are not to be disturbed under any circumstances.""Understood, sir."Andrew was calm while speaking to his secretary, but deep inside, he was panicking.What was Raffy

CHAPTER 24

Raffy was shocked to see the overwhelming anger in Andrew's face.He knew Andrew would be angry. Anyone would be after being slapped. But he was not expecting that kind of anger. It was scary. It made him speechless, made him unable to move. The look on Andrew's face made it seem like he could kill anyone who stood in his way, and right now, that person was Raffy.There were only a handful of times where he saw that side of Andrew. And most of those ended with him being roughly fucked so hard, he had to stay in bed for a day. As for whether he was alright being treated that way—yes, he was. Because at that time, all he could think about was helping Andrew to get whatever horrible thoughts he was having off his mind. He wanted to make him forget, to make him feel better.Fuck! He wished he could forget too. If there was some kind of a potion that would make him magically forget everything that had to do with Andrew, he would gladly take it. Because he couldn't keep remembering their pa

CHAPTER 25.1

With his eyes closed, Andrew lifted his head to let water fall down his face.Because he was still in a rut, his body was very sensitive, making him feel and hear almost everything.He hated it. He hated being in a rut because not only was he losing control of himself physically but also emotionally. And he loathed that because that was not him anymore.For years, after what he did to Andrew's best friend, after he got punished for it, and after Raffy left him, Andrew did everything he could to change. He made himself better in all the aspects he thought he was lacking. And he believed he was already doing well. For years, that was what he believed.But what happened at his office with Andrew made him realize that that was not the case at all.Andrew's slap instantly reminded him of the punishment he had received, and the way he relied on Raffy to forget and feel better brought him back to how they were ten years ago. And he didn't know how to feel about that.There were so many emotio

CHAPTER 25.2

Raffy tried to act as normal as possible. He was all smiles as he got out of the taxi when he reached the Maplewood District. That same smile hadn't faded when people greeted him. He even had conversations with a few of them in the gentle and calm tone he always used, which was the complete opposite of what he was truly feeling.Because while he appeared fine on the outside, a storm was causing havoc inside him, a storm so strong it made his heart clench.Once he was inside his safe space, his home, that was when he finally stopped pretending and allowed himself to let go of his real emotions. His fake smile disappeared, and he allowed himself to be stripped of the last bit of strength he still had after meeting Andrew.He placed his phone on the counter and sat on the chair facing it, a heavy sigh escaping his lips.He crossed his arms and laid them on the counter before resting his head on them.He closed his eyes and took a couple of deep breaths. He wanted his messy and chaotic b

CHAPTER 26

A knock on his office door caught Andrew's attention, causing him to raise his head."May I come in?" Sally asked from the other side of the door."Yes," Andrew replied before letting go of the pen he had been holding."You okay?" Sally asked after she came in and closed the door, clocking the flushed look he had."Yeah. I'm good.""You sure? You're still in a rut, Andrew. You sure you don't want me to call someone?""I am a hundred percent sure, Sally," he quickly replied. "Now, tell me what you're here for."Sally gave him a doubtful look but said nothing about it anymore. Instead, he handed him a manila folder that contained information about a real-estate and urban development company."What am I looking at, Sally?" he asked as he looked at every page."Crownstone Properties Group. I know you already heard about them."Andrew nodded. "I had a newly established real estate and property development company that has rapidly gained attention in our industry. So?""You are aware that t
