Chapter 1: The Man Who Belongs To Me

Lucien Beaumont did not do boyfriends.He did mergers. He did hostile takeovers. He did 6 AM board meetings and black coffee that could strip paint.He did not do a 22-year-old photographer with freckles and a lip piercing who left camera lenses on his million-dollar marble kitchen counter.And yet, there he was, standing in the doorway of his own penthouse at 11:47 PM, watching Milo Chen curled up on his couch in one of his dress shirts, bare legs tucked under him, editing photos on Lucien's laptop like he owned the place.Which, to be fair, he kind of did."You're late," Milo said without looking up. His voice was soft. Sweet. Anyone else would think it was innocent.Lucien knew better."Meeting ran over. The Singapore deal—""I know. You didn't answer my texts for three hours, Lucien."That was the tone. That soft, disappointed tone that made Lucien's spine straighten like a schoolboy caught cheating.Lucien loosened his tie. "I told you I was in a meeting.""You told me at 5 PM. I

Chapter 2: He Checks My Phone At Midnight

Milo was already in Lucien's shirt when Lucien got home.Not his shirt. Lucien's shirt. The white one he wore to the morning meeting. It smelled like him — expensive cologne and cold winter air. It was too big, hanging off Milo's shoulder, showing the freckles on his collarbone.Lucien stopped in the doorway of the penthouse. His tie was loose. He looked tired."You went through my closet again," he said.Milo didn't look up from where he was sitting on their bed. He was on Lucien's phone."I went through your phone, too."Lucien sighed and dropped his briefcase. "Milo.""What? You left it on the kitchen counter. That's basically asking me to look."He held the phone up. The screen was open to Lucien's messages. A name Milo didn't recognize.Alex — Intern: Mr. Beaumont, thanks for today! Had fun at the lunch :)Milo's voice was sweet. Too sweet."Who's Alex? And why is he having fun at lunch with my boyfriend?"Lucien took off his jacket. "He's a new intern. Twenty-three. He was at th

Chapter 3: Don't Look At Him

Alex was more handsome in person.That was Milo's first thought when he saw him standing outside Lucien's office at 9:15 AM with two coffees.Tall. Blond. Twenty-three. The kind of handsome that looked like he played lacrosse in college and never worried about anything.He was wearing a tight white t-shirt under his blazer. Milo hated him immediately."Mr. Beaumont isn't in yet," Milo said, standing in the doorway of Lucien's office like he owned it. Which, in his head, he did.Alex smiled. He had perfect teeth."Oh, hi! You must be Milo! Mr. Beaumont told us about you. I'm Alex, the new marketing intern. I brought him his usual—""I know who you are."Milo said it flat. He was wearing Lucien's black hoodie today. It swallowed him. He looked small and soft, except for his eyes. His eyes were cold.Alex laughed, a little nervous. "Right. Well, I can just leave it on his desk?""No."Milo didn't move."You can leave. He doesn't drink coffee from interns. He only drinks coffee I make him

Chapter 4: Lena's Back

Milo thought he had won.He spent the whole day in Lucien's office. On Lucien's lap. In Lucien's chair. He answered Lucien's calls with "Lucien's boyfriend speaking." He ate Lucien's lunch.By 5 PM, the whole 58th floor knew: Don't talk to Mr. Beaumont unless you go through the pretty boy with freckles.Milo was happy. He was humming while he packed Lucien's briefcase.Then the elevator dinged.Lena stepped out.Lena was 54, sharp blazer, sharp bob, sharper eyes. She had worked for Lucien for twelve years. She had seen three boyfriends before Milo. None of them lasted.She stopped when she saw Milo in Lucien's office."Milo," she said.Milo froze."Hi, Lena," he said, trying to sound innocent. "I thought you had food poisoning."Lena looked at Lucien. Lucien looked at the floor. He knew he was caught."Food poisoning," Lena repeated flatly. "Interesting. Because I got a text from your phone, Lucien, at 6 AM saying 'Take today off. Paid.'""I did send that," Lucien admitted."And I cal

Chapter 5: Say He's Mine In Public

Milo did not want to apologize to Lena.He stood outside Beaumont Corp at 8:55 AM holding two coffees, wearing Lucien's blue shirt again. The same one he made Lucien wear yesterday.Lena was at her desk. Back. Sharp bob. Sharp eyes. She looked up when Milo came in."Lucien told me you have something to say to me," she said.Milo put one coffee on her desk."I bought you coffee," he said.Lena stared at the coffee."It's not poisoned," Milo added."Milo.""Okay, okay." Milo sighed. He had practiced this in the car with Lucien. "I'm sorry I texted you from Lucien's phone and told you to take the day off. It was... not professional."Lena raised an eyebrow. "And?""And I'm sorry I told Alex he would be sent to New Jersey.""And?"Milo clenched his fists. This was harder than he thought."And... I'm sorry I sat in Lucien's chair all day," he mumbled.Lena finally took the coffee. She sipped it."Thank you," she said.Milo thought it was over. He turned to go to Lucien's office."But," Len

Chapter 6: The Ex

Milo had one ex.One ex who taught him everything about being left.His name was Daniel. He was 28, a gallery owner in SoHo. He was the one who found Milo when Milo was 19 and fresh from Taraba, doing small photo shoots for $50.Daniel said Milo was "too much." Too clingy. Too jealous. Too intense.Daniel left him for a painter. He didn't even say it to his face. He sent a text.Milo never forgot that text. He had it screenshotted.So when Daniel walked into the charity gala at The Pierre, Milo's blood went cold."Lucien," Milo whispered, grabbing Lucien's sleeve. "We need to leave."Lucien was talking to a senator. "What? Why?""Now. Please."Lucien turned. He saw Milo's face — pale, freckles standing out, hands shaking.Then he saw Daniel.Daniel saw Milo too. And he smiled. That gallery-owner smile that had once made Milo feel special."Milo Chen? Wow. Small world," Daniel said, walking over with a wine glass. "You look... expensive now."Milo stepped behind Lucien."Who is this?"

Chapter 7: The Morning After

Milo woke up to 37 missed calls.All from Lena.The penthouse was too bright. Lucien wasn't in bed. The sheets on his side were cold.Milo sat up, Lucien's hoodie falling off his shoulder. His eyes were still swollen from last night. His lip piercing was dry.He found Lucien in the kitchen. Same blue shirt from two days ago. Phone to his ear. CEO voice. The one that didn't sound like his boyfriend, it sounded like Mr. Beaumont."—I don't care what Page Six says, we are not issuing a statement. Yes. No comment. Handle Tokyo, I will be there at 10."Lucien hung up. He saw Milo in the doorway."Morning," he said. Softer now.Milo didn't say morning. He said, "Are you mad at me?"Lucien walked over. He looked tired. There were dark circles under his eyes."No. I'm not mad at you.""Lena is.""Lena is... Lena is dealing with PR. It's her job."Milo looked down at his bare feet. "The wine thing is everywhere, isn't it?"Lucien nodded. He showed him his phone.Page Six: Billionaire's Boy Toy

Chapter 8: The Confession

Lucien took him to a tiny Italian place in the West Village. No name on the door. No press.It was the place Lucien went when he didn't want to be Lucien Beaumont, billionaire CEO. He just wanted to be Lucien.Milo wore a normal hoodie for once. No lipstick. No black nails. He looked 22. He looked scared to ruin another thing.Lucien ordered for both of them. Pasta. Wine. Milo didn't drink his wine. He kept looking at Lucien's hands."You haven't said anything all day," Milo finally whispered.Lucien put his fork down. "I'm thinking.""About Tokyo?""About you. In my closet."Milo blushed. "You saw the camera on?""I saw you on the floor in my suits. Lena told me you didn't leave the penthouse once.""I told you I would be good."Lucien reached across the table and took Milo's hand. His thumb rubbed over Milo's knuckles where there was still a faint red wine stain from last night."Milo, can I tell you something I've never told anyone?"Milo nodded, heart pounding."Before you... my

Chapter 9: The Fix

Milo had never been to a real business meeting before.He sat in the corner of Beaumont Corp's conference room at 9 AM, wearing Lucien's big blazer because Lucien told him to "look serious," holding his camera like a shield.Lena was not happy he was there."Lucien, this is a Tokyo investor call," she whispered. "He can't—""He can," Lucien said, not looking up from his laptop. "He's staying."The Zoom call connected. Three men in suits in Tokyo. Serious faces. They had seen the Page Six article. They had seen the wine-throwing photo."Mr. Beaumont," one of them said in careful English. "We are concerned about stability. Your... personal life is affecting business."Lucien was about to give his CEO speech. Milo had heard it before — calm, cold, perfect.But Milo stood up first."Can I show you something?" he asked, voice small but clear.Everyone looked at him. Lena mouthed "sit down."Lucien nodded. "Let him."Milo connected his camera to the big screen. Click.A photo appeared. It w

Chapter 10: Mine Means Safe

Milo used to check his phone at 3 AM.Not his own phone. Lucien's.It was a habit from Daniel. Daniel used to text other people at 3 AM. Milo would wake up and see the blue light and his heart would stop.Lucien didn't do that. Lucien slept like a dead man, one arm over Milo, phone face-down on the nightstand. But Milo still woke up at 3 AM, every night, and reached for it.On night 10, Lucien caught him.Milo was sitting up in bed, Lucien's phone in his hands, password screen open. He didn't know the password. Lucien had never told him. He was just staring at it, breathing hard, trying not to cry."Milo?" Lucien's voice, sleepy.Milo jumped and dropped the phone. "I— I wasn't—"Lucien sat up. He turned on the lamp. Milo's face was red and guilty and scared."I wasn't going to look," Milo whispered. "I just... I woke up and I..."Lucien didn't get mad. He picked up his phone, unlocked it, and handed it to Milo."Here."Milo stared at it. "What?""Look. Check everything. Messages, Inst
