Chap 32: Blast from the Past
Last Updated:
2022-04-14 14:29:50Dylan finally found the person he was looking for. He saw Aiden entering the auditorium with a few others. Aiden raised his head to glance at the stage and suddenly looked down when he confirmed it was indeed Dylan. Dylan smirked at Aiden's reaction. He looked shocked and flustered, just as Dylan had expected. This would be fun. His dull mood had suddenly brightened up. He was losing his mind sitting with these boring people at a boring graduation ceremony.
Dylan never liked to attend any events or parties unless absolutely necessary. He had joined his Dad's Business a year ago and had soon realized he had to maintain a facade. On the outside, he was this charming gentleman who was well behaved but equally dedicated and ruthless when it came to his Business.
Over the years, Dylan has changed a lot. He was no longer the spoilt brat who was interested in nothing but partying and getting wasted with his frie

Noah's surprise was a luxurious apartment that he had just purchased." You bought it?" Aiden asked, shocked. " But you said you didn't like it."" But you like it," Noah beamed. " ...And whatever you like, I like."Aiden was shocked. " Are you...crazy?"" Crazy for you."" Did your parents pay for it?"" Of course not!!" Noah was offended." Don't underestimate your boyfriend," Rob added. " He is an author of a best-selling book that has already sold a few million copies."" Do you like the furniture?" Noah asked Aiden excitedly. " I've already bought your luggage and arranged it in our room."" How can I stay here just like that?" Aiden asked. " I will pay you."" What?" Noah looked hurt. " You are hurting my feelings."" But..."" No buts. I bought this house for us. It's yours as much as it's mine."" But how can I...?" Aiden was still reluctant." Don't overthink. I spent all my savings on the house, so I am

Aiden was feeling awkward being in the shopping mall with Dylan. He had never done this before with Dylan, not even when they were in their teens. Dylan himself wondered why he volunteered to shop for Aiden when he never shopped for his own clothes and had hired a designer for it.Dylan had taken Aiden to a branded store, and Aiden almost fainted at the cost of the suits." T-The prices are too expensive. I-I can't afford it," Aiden whispered." Have I ever asked you to pay for the things I gave you?" Dylan asked, raising a brow, and Aiden looked away, flustered.Dylan had given Aiden a lot of his dresses when they stayed at the Hunt mansion, but they were all basically Dylan's clothes, which he wore once or twice and got bored of it. It was never new. This time the situation was different. They were now adults, and Aiden didn't want to take anything from Dylan but was too scared to oppose him.

Aiden was too busy at his work. He and Noah hardly had any time together, and Noah was unhappy about it." You are so busy these days," Noah said beside Aiden while cuddling on the bed. " Work is busy. Lots of new projects."" You have no time for me now," Noah pouted." It's been four years, Noah," Aiden chuckled. " You always say that."" But previously, even if you were busy at least, I could see you studying in front of me, but now you come home so late every day."" We will have time on weekends, " Aiden said, turning around and staring at Noah. " Not this weekend."" Why not?"" Did you forget I have to go for the signing tour on Friday?" " Oh... That totally slipped my mind. How many days?"" A week at most," Noah said sadly." Why do you look so sad? It's just a matter of a week."" But I will miss you."" Well...I will miss you too, but we can talk on the phone."" Before that, I need you to do something for me," Noah said." What is it?"" I want you to come back home soo

Aiden was shocked still. What was Dylan talking about? Did he see him kiss Noah? The possibility of that bought a sense of dread through his body." Are you one of those?" Dylan asked with venom in his voice."O-One of w-what?" Aiden asked, anticipating the worst." Don't act coy with me, Aiden. Are you gay?" Dylan screamed so loud that Aiden was trembling in fear.He didn't respond, so Dylan punched the wall in anger glaring at Aiden."I-I..."" Who am I kidding? I saw it with my own eyes. You were kissing that so-called roommate of yours," Dylan spat." Y-You s-saw that?" Aiden stuttered." Yes, and if I hadn't, you would have never told me. Why, Aiden, why? Why you of all people?"Aiden was looking down, trying to avoid looking at Dylan. Dylan got furious and held Aiden's jaw in a tight grip. " Don't look away from me," he yelled.Aiden tried to get away from Dylan, but his grip was too tight. " How could you do this? How could you be one of those? Don't you know I hate them?""I

It was the weekend, so Dylan met his old friends at a club." We didn't expect you to come," one of Dylan's friends said. " Aren't you too busy with the company?"" I was in a mood for change," Dylan replied casually. His actual reason for coming was to avoid thinking about a certain someone. That night, Dylan returned home fully drunk, and things turned even worse. His imagination got wilder now. The kiss he had shared with Aiden turned into a full-blown makeout session. He was on top of Aiden, licking and sucking him all over, having the time of his life.The following morning, Dylan woke up from a wet dream. He was embarrassed as he felt like a teenager who had just reached puberty. Why was this happening to him? Never before had he imagined doing it with a guy; rather, he had hated the mere thought of it. Then why did he not feel disgusted doing it with Aiden? The dream he had was so erotic; he had never been so aroused, not even with his girlfriend. On Monday, when he came back

Noah was back from his overseas trip, and as soon as Aiden saw him, he hugged him so tightly as if he feared losing him if he let go."Awww!! Did you miss me so much?" Noah asked, nudging Aiden on his face."Yes," Aiden said and tightened his grip."I missed you too. Can't you skip office today?"Aiden hoped he could skip office not only for a day but quit entirely, but that was not possible. Also, if he didn't show up at the office, what if Dylan came home looking for him? He couldn't risk that. "Sorry. I have to go," Aiden said sadly."But I didn't see you for a week," Noah pouted."I will try to come home soon," Aiden said and convinced Noah.On the other hand, Dylan was thinking about his next plan of action. He was not someone who would accept defeat so easily. Aiden thought that Dylan couldn't control everything, but Dylan was determined to show him that he could still control whatever he wanted, especially Aiden and his life. Anything was possible if you had money and power.Dy

Reader discretion is advised.Aiden picked up the call from an unknown number and heard the person say, " Come to my office now," and hang up. He recognized the authoritative tone too well and got up from his seat to go to Dylan's office. Aiden didn't expect much from his conversation with Dylan, but he wanted to know what Dylan actually wanted from him. Dylan was sitting on his seat staring outside the window when Aiden entered his office. " Why did you want to meet me?" Dylan asked, still not looking at Aiden." D-Did you meet Noah's father?" Aiden asked." Yes."" Why?"" Don't you know why?" Dylan asked, looking at Aiden from the corner of his eye." I-I can't understand what you would achieve by talking to Noah's father. "" You didn't agree to leave him. So I had to take another route."" I-It's my personal matter. Y-You..." Aiden wanted to say not to interfere but stoppe

The following day Aiden called Dylan again. " I-I want to meet you."" I knew you would," Dylan smirked." Come to my office."" C-Can we meet somewhere else?" Aiden asked reluctantly as he didn't want to be alone with Dylan." Are you kidding me?" Dylan spat. " Come right now," he said and hung up.Aiden didn't want to meet Dylan alone, but he had to go for Noah's sake. Finally, gathering up his courage, he hesitantly walked towards Dylan's office. The receptionist he had met the last time was replaced by someone else, and this lady seemed too polite. She personally escorted Aiden to Dylan's office even though he refused multiple times. He felt awkward and wondered what was going on.Dylan was on his phone and indicated Aiden to wait. Aiden took his time to observe Dylan's office for the first time. It was simple yet elegant. A dark-walnut bookcase lined the entire left-hand wall. The window was big and gave a spectacular view of the city." So, what did you decide?" Dylan asked, maki

" 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

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
