" That's what the records say," Noah said softly." Aiden said there's no one, " Rob says, " Does that mean his parents are no more?"" No wonder he felt uncomfortable speaking about it," Jay remarked." We still don't know. Don't jump to conclusions," Noah said. He recalled Aiden's reaction during lunch when Rob asked him about his family. He could see the pain in Aiden's eyes and the way he was trying to avoid talking about it. Now he had the urge to know Aiden even more. He wanted to know why he was so aloof and what ailed him so much. He wanted to hold him and say everything would be fine.Then one of the Professors caught them loitering around the campus. " What are you students doing here? Should you not be in your classes?"" We are on our way to the classes, Sir," Jay muttered in a hurry." You better," the Professor warned and left." We have skipRelated chapters

Noah was sitting at the cafe waiting for Mia. While he was pondering how to approach Mia, she herself had called and asked him to meet. Mia arrived, and they ordered their coffee and had small talks. " Have you shifted? Are you in the same room I saw you at?" Mia asked." I have not yet shifted, and no, I will be in room 205."Mia looked a bit disappointed. " Oh!!!"" Are you disappointed?" Noah asked." No...It's not like that."" Then what is it? " Noah asked."Do you know S-Shawn? Are you his friend?" Mia asked reluctantly. " Not particularly. Why are you asking?"Mia looked flustered. " I-I..."" Are you blushing? " Noah teased her. " Don't be shy. You can tell me anything, Mia," Noah said sweetly so that Mia could open up with him." W-What kind of guy is Shawn?"Noah raised his eyebrow. " Do you like this guy by any chance?"Mia's face was red, and she avoided looking at Noah. He felt like doing a happy d
Fear, Control or Love? Chap 23: New Roommate
Noah was in his Literature class listening to his Professor talking about Romeo and Juliet and love." How do you make someone fall in love with you?" Noah asked, lost in thoughts of Aiden." What was that, Mr. Wright?" the Professor asked, raising his brow." Did I say it aloud?" Noah whispered to Rob.Rob nodded, and Noah cursed to himself. " Sh*t."" No cussing in my class," the Professor tsked. " So what was your question, Mr. Wright?"" Ummm...!!! N-Nothing Sir. "" But I surely heard something. Are you daydreaming in my class? Am I so boring to you?" the Professor asked, looking disappointed.Noah's eyes were wide. " N-No, Sir." Suddenly he had an idea. " I was thinking about the character of my book.""Book?" The Professor looked interested. " Are you writing a new book?"" Yes, Sir, and I would be grateful if you could help me," Noah asked h

There was an awkward silence for a few seconds. Noah placed his head on the locked door and went through the things he needed to do.First, Get close to Aiden. Second, Try to find out whether he is gay, and third is to make him fall in love with you.Right now, all these points were unchecked, and he hoped soon that would not be the case.It was time to get on with the first task. Before you can be a boyfriend, you have to be friends.Showtime... Noah.Noah suddenly turned around and looked at Aiden, fidgeting in the corner. As expected, yet again, he couldn't stop himself from observing Aiden from top to bottom.

Dinner with Aiden was interesting. Noah had voluntarily told Aiden about his family, hoping he would receive some kind of information in return, but he did not. Aiden was just listening keenly without saying a word.Noah noticed that Aiden didn't want to speak about his personal life, so he decided to know about other small things first." Now that we would be staying together, we should get to know each other more," Noah stated." Err... Y-Yeah..." Aiden whispered." We will play the question game."" W-What's that?"" I will ask you one question; then you get to ask me one."Aiden didn't know what to say. What if Noah asked him something which he didn't want to answer?Seeing Aiden's hesitation, Noah added, " You can pass the question if you don't wanna answer it."" Okay," Noah agreed, signing in relief." So...What's your favorite fo

Noah was so overwhelmed by Aiden's gesture that he couldn't think straight. His heart felt like it was about to explode. When Aiden was back from the restroom, Noah had an urge to hold him, hug him, and kiss him senseless. God only knows how he controlled himself.Aiden was flustered when he saw Noah intensely looking at him without blinking. It was as if Noah was staring into his soul." So let's go shopping for tomorrow's party," Jay interrupted his thoughts." Party?" Aiden asked, confused." Noah's parents' Anniversary party." Jay looked at Noah and asked, " You didn't invite him?"" He's coming..., right?" Noah looked at Aiden with expectation." I-I don't think..."" Please don't say no. I want you to meet my parents."This was truly awkward for Aiden. " But I..."" Pleaseeee...." Noah appealed dramatically. " I won't stop asking until you say yes.

" That's my roommate, Aiden," Noah introduced Aiden to his parents." And he's my dad Daryl and mom, Amelia."" It's good to finally meet you. We have heard a lot about you from Noah," Daryl said with a smile." Happy Anniversary Mr. and Mrs. Wright," Aiden wished and smiled awkwardly at Daryl and Amelia, wondering why Noah would discuss him with his parents. He suddenly stiffened when Amelia hugged him lovingly."I was dying to meet you," Amelia said, breaking the hug while Aiden was surprised at their excitement over seeing him.Is this how all friends' parents behave?Aiden's awkwardness in being at this party soon faded away because, exactly like Noah, even his family members were easy to talk to.

" W-Who a-are you all?" Aiden stuttered, backing away. He glanced at his surroundings and noticed it was deserted except for him and these dangerous-looking people." We are here for you."" W-What? W-Why?"" We were ordered to teach you a lesson."" W-What do you m-mean?" Aiden asked in fear and confusion." You have angered some big people."" I-I do not u-understand..." Aiden looked around for a way to escape. The sun had already set, and these people screamed trouble. As he was about to run, he was stopped by one of the men from behind." Where do you think you are going?" The goon violently held Aiden by his arm, stopping him from escaping." W-What do you want f-from me?" Aiden couldn't understand what he had done to anger these men whom he was seeing for the first time in his life." We were told that you do not listen to anyone."" W-Who did I not listen t-to?" Aiden was really confused now. Who were they talking about?" Mrs. Diana Hunt. She hired us to warn you."Aiden was s

The following morning, Dylan left, leaving Aiden locked up at home. He wanted to work from home but was forced to go as he had to meet an important client. As soon as he left, Aiden searched the entire house looking for a way to escape. He tried all the doors and windows, but everything was locked. Dylan watched his home camera feed on his phone and angrily clenched his teeth. Though he was sure Aiden wouldn't be able to escape, he didn't like his desperate attempts to stay away from Dylan." Drive faster," Dylan instructed the driver as he could soon finish his work and return to Aiden. All his plans had gotten complicated, and he soon had to find a solution for everything. Meanwhile, Dylan's mother had met Natalie and tried to give a reasonable explanation blaming everything on Aiden. Natalie, who had seen everything with her eyes, thoroughly denied it, saying she was involved with Dylan and he was still cheating on her. " Can you give my son a second chance? " Mrs. Hunt said in a

Dylan suddenly held Aiden's arms in a tight grip and screamed, " How do you know about Nat?"" So it is about her?"" Tell me, what do you know?"Aiden just stared at Dylan, looking disgusted.Dylan felt tensed looking at Aiden's expression. " It's not what you think. You shouldn't be worried about it."" Why would I be worried?" Aiden asked. " Actually, I am relieved."" What do you mean?" Dylan asked, confused." Now that Natalie knows about us, don't you think you should stop all this?"" Stop what?"" Stop this madness and let me go," Aiden spat." And why would I do that?" Dylan seethed." Come on, Dylan. You were supposed to get married."" What has that got to do with you? It's my personal matter."" Then what am I doing here?"" You are here because I love you."Aiden almost pulled out his hair in frustration. How much ever he tried to talk it out with Dylan, he never seemed to understand. He pushed Dylan away and screamed, " Do you know how absurd you sound right now?"" What

Dylan was pacing around in his office, recalling his confrontation with Natalie and thinking about what to do next. Suddenly his office door burst open, and Dylan angrily turned around, yelling," Didn't I tell you not to disturb..." He paused when he noticed his Dad and Mom standing before him, looking smug." F**k!!" Dylan cursed under his breath, thinking about why his Dad was there as he usually never visited him in the office." Why are you here?" Dylan asked, looking from his Dad to his mother." Look at you acting so cool after what you have done," Dylan's mother spat out." What is it now?" Dylan asked in irritation. Did Nat say anything to them?" What is it that I am hearing, son," Dylan's Dad said. " You and Aiden?"Dylan was shocked and looked at his mother accusingly." I had to tell him," Mrs. Hunt said defensively. " Even Natalie knows about it now. How do we face her family?"" How did you know?" Dylan asked." I happened to be at the restaurant today," Mrs. Hunt replie
Fear, Control or Love? Chap 62: Meeting with the fiance
The following day, Dylan met with Natalie at a restaurant for lunch. Natalie had purposely booked a private room, knowing the conversation might get heated anytime." What is it, Nat? What did you want to talk about?" Dylan seemed distracted and uninterested." What's your relationship with Aiden?" Natalie got straight to the point as she wanted to catch Dylan off-guard. Dylan's expression suddenly changed, and he seemed confused and shocked. " W-What do you mean?"" You know what I mean."" Can you be more specific?" Dylan was wondering why Natalie was asking about Aiden. Did she find out about their relationship? This was bad. How would she react if she knew he liked men? Would she tell everyone?" Fine!!" Natalie huffed. " I heard the conversation between you and Aiden in your conference room the other day."Normally Dylan wouldn't be intimidated by anyone, but now he was genuinely worried. He wanted to make sure how much she knew. After a few minutes of silence, he asked, " What

After leaving the office, Dylan asked the driver to take them home. The entire ride home was silent as Dylan still wasn't in a good mood while a thousand things were running around in Aiden's mind. Should he tell Dylan about Natalie? Or Did Natalie already tell him?As soon as they were inside the penthouse, Aiden could hear Dylan's loud voice, " What do you want me to do?"" What do you mean?" Aiden turned around and asked in confusion. " I am out of ideas, so you tell me, how do I make you love me? What should I do for you to stop thinking about your boyfriend?"" That's not possible," Aiden said, trying to sound confident though he was freaked out from the inside. Dylan closed his eyes and clenched his fists to control his anger. Right now, he wanted to lock Aiden in his room and only allow him to leave once he agreed to be with Dylan forever. He stared at Aiden, who looked scared as if waiting for Dylan to retaliate. Suddenly, he turned around and dashed towards his room, closin
Fear, Control or Love? Chap 60: Caught in the act
Aiden just stared at Natalie for a few seconds, not knowing what to do. As soon as he saw her tears, he looked down in remorse wishing the earth would swallow him whole. After a few agonizing moments, Natalie herself approached Aiden and whispered in a sad tone, " W-What is going on between you two?"Aiden was so nervous he couldn't seem to say anything." Tell me, what is going on?" Natalie insisted, her tone a bit louder.Aiden couldn't seem to look Natalie in the eye, but he tried to reason with her. " I-Its n-not what you think...""I heard it all," Natalie spat. " You can't deny it now."Aiden was at a loss again. He was hoping that Natalie must not have heard everything, but her words proved him wrong. What would she think about Aiden now? Her impression of him would be of a relationship wrecker." W-Why...? Natalie asked in between her tears. " W-Why did Dylan say that you are his? Does he l-love you?" Natalie had already predicted that Dylan would be in love with someone else,

Aiden was smiling like a fool, recalling his time with Noah the previous night. Dylan had been gone for two days now. He had to travel overseas on an emergency Business trip, and before leaving, Dylan had instructed Aiden to straight away go back home after office. The first day Aiden obliged, fearing it might be one of Dylan's tricks and he might suddenly appear in front of him. Nevertheless, he became convinced Dylan was indeed overseas when he video-called him, showed him the London bridge, and said he wished to take Aiden there. So, on the second day, after returning to the penthouse, Aiden changed and left to meet Noah. As soon as Aiden was out, he got a call from Dylan asking where he was, and he replied he was going to the departmental store. Aiden and Noah had dinner after a long time and talked about the things going on in their life. While having dinner, Dylan repeatedly called Aiden, urging him to return home soon, so Aiden kissed Noah goodbye and left after two hours. Dy

Dylan immediately turned towards the window as if watching the city outside. He wanted to kill Clara for even thinking of trying to make Aiden her submissive. Clenching his fist, he took deep breaths to calm himself as he didn't want to get angry in front of Aiden. After a few minutes, he turned towards Aiden with a smile. " Don't worry; it's nothing important.""Okay," Aiden agreed." I-I will go to my room then," he whispered so that he could escape and avoid further questions." What's the hurry?" Dylan said, holding Aiden's arm to stop him.Aiden's heart was beating fast, waiting for Dylan to burst out any moment. " A-Are you not sleepy?"" Not at all," Dylan replied huskily. " How can I sleep when I miss you so much? I hardly saw you today."" W-We are in the same office." Aiden didn't like where the conversation was leading." You are a busy person," Dylan said calmly. " You don't even have the time to pick up my call.""I-I a-am sorry. I-I was having my lunch s-so I missed your
