Chapter 04

Harry immediately got up from the bed and approached the door, where he looked through the peephole to see who was knocking. He was shocked to see Felix's father and his men standing outside the door, and his heart immediately sank.

"What do I do?" Harry whispered to Felix, who was standing behind him, still shirtless.

Felix's eyes widened in fear as he stared at Harry. "You have to get rid of them," he whispered back.

Harry nodded and took a deep breath before opening the door. "Can I help you?" he asked, trying to sound calm.

Felix's father sneered at him. "You're the one who's been helping my son, aren't you?" he spat. "You're the one who's been interfering with my business."

Harry stood his ground, despite the fear that was growing inside him. "I'm just trying to protect Felix," he said. "He doesn't deserve to be treated the way you're treating him."

Felix's father laughed. "You don't know what you're getting yourself into," he said. "You don't know what Felix is capable of."

Harry felt a surge of anger at the man's words. "I know that Felix is a good person," he said. "And I know that he deserves to be treated with respect and kindness."

Felix's father sneered at him again. "You're just a foolish detective," he said. "You don't know what you're up against."

With that, he turned and walked away, leaving Harry feeling shaken and scared. He closed the door and leaned against it, trying to catch his breath.

Felix approached him, looking worried. "Are you okay?" he asked.

Harry nodded, still trying to process what had just happened. "Yeah, I'm fine," he said.

Felix looked at him skeptically. "You're not fine," he said. "You're shaking."

Harry looked down at his hands and saw that they were indeed shaking. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

"I'm sorry," he said to Felix. "I didn't mean to scare you."

Felix shook his head. "You didn't scare me," he said. "I'm just worried about you."

Harry looked at him, feeling a surge of gratitude towards him. "Thank you," he said. "That means a lot to me."

Felix smiled and approached him. "We need to get out of here," he said. "My father won't give up easily."

Harry nodded, still feeling shaken. "Okay," he said. "Let's go."

They quickly packed their things and left the hotel, trying to put as much distance between themselves and Felix's father as possible.

As they drove, Harry couldn't help but think about what had just happened. He had never been so scared in his life, but he had also never felt so alive.

He glanced over at Felix, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looking out the window. He felt a surge of love towards him, and he knew that he would do anything to protect him.

They drove for hours, finally stopping at a small motel on the outskirts of town. They checked in and went to their room, exhausted.

As they lay in bed, Harry turned to Felix and wrapped his arms around him. "I'm glad we're together," he said.

Felix smiled and wrapped his arms around Harry. "Me too," he said.

They held each other tightly, feeling safe and protected in each other's arms.

As they drifted off to sleep, Harry knew that he would do anything to keep Felix safe. He would fight to the end to protect him, no matter what dangers lay ahead.

And as they slept, they were unaware of the dangers that were lurking in the shadows, waiting to strike.

As they slept, Harry's mind was still racing with thoughts of Felix's father and the danger that they were in. He knew that they couldn't stay in one place for too long, or Felix's father would eventually find them.

After a few hours of sleep, Harry woke up to find Felix still sleeping beside him. He gently got out of bed and began to pack their things, trying not to make too much noise.

As he was packing, he heard a faint noise coming from outside the room. He immediately froze, his heart racing with fear.

The noise grew louder, and Harry could tell that someone was trying to pick the lock on their door. He knew that they had to get out of there, fast.

He quickly woke Felix up and grabbed their bags. "We have to go," he whispered urgently.

Felix rubbed his eyes, still half asleep. "What's wrong?" he asked.

Harry didn't answer, instead pulling Felix out of the room and into the hallway. They quickly made their way to the stairs, Harry's eyes scanning the area for any signs of danger.

As they reached the bottom of the stairs, Harry could see a group of men waiting for them in the lobby. They were clearly Felix's father's men, and they looked like they meant business.

Harry knew that they had to think fast. He quickly scanned the area, looking for any possible escape route. That's when he spotted a side door that led out to the parking lot.

Without hesitation, Harry grabbed Felix's hand and pulled him towards the door. They burst through it, sprinting across the parking lot to their car.

As they reached the car, Harry could hear the men shouting behind them. He quickly unlocked the door and pushed Felix inside, following close behind.

They sped out of the parking lot, leaving the men and the motel behind. Harry didn't dare look back, fearing what he might see.

As they drove, Felix turned to him, his eyes wide with fear. "What just happened?" he asked.

Harry took a deep breath, trying to calm down. "Your father's men found us," he said. "We had to get out of there fast."

Felix's eyes dropped, and he nodded. "I'm sorry," he said. "I'm putting you in danger."

Harry reached out and took Felix's hand. "You're not putting me in danger," he said. "I'm choosing to help you. I care about you, Felix."

Felix looked up at him, his eyes shining with tears. "I care about you too, Harry," he said.

Harry smiled, feeling a warmth in his heart. "I know," he said. "And I'm going to do everything I can to keep you safe."

As they drove, Harry knew that they couldn't stay on the run forever. They needed a plan, a way to take down Felix's father and his men once and for all.

He glanced over at Felix, who was watching him with a determined look in his eyes. Harry knew that they were in this together, and he was ready to face whatever dangers lay ahead.

After driving for hours, they finally reached a small town in the middle of nowhere. Harry pulled over at a local diner, where they grabbed a bite to eat and refueled.

As they sat at the counter, Felix turned to Harry with a serious look on his face. "I've been thinking," he said. "I want to take down my father and his men. I want to stop running and face them head-on."

Harry's eyes widened in surprise. "Are you sure?" he asked.

Felix nodded. "I'm positive. I'm tired of running, Harry. I'm tired of being scared. I want to take control of my life, and I want to do it with you by my side."

Harry felt a surge of pride and admiration for Felix. He knew that it wouldn't be easy, but he was willing to stand by Felix and fight for him.

"Okay," he said, smiling. "Let's do it. Let's take down your father and his men, and let's start a new life together."

Felix grinned, and the two of them shared a triumphant kiss, ready to face whatever lay ahead.

As they sat at the counter, holding hands and gazing into each other's eyes, Harry knew that he had found his soulmate in Felix. He couldn't believe how much he had grown to care for him in such a short amount of time.

Felix, too, felt a deep connection to Harry. He had never felt this way about anyone before, and it scared him. But at the same time, it excited him.

As they finished their meal and prepared to leave, Harry leaned over and whispered in Felix's ear, "I want to spend the rest of my life making you happy."

Felix's heart skipped a beat as he turned to Harry, his eyes shining with tears. "I want that too," he whispered back.

Harry smiled and took Felix's hand, leading him out of the diner and into the bright sunlight.

As they walked, hand in hand, Felix couldn't help but feel a sense of freedom that he had never experienced before. He was finally able to be himself, without fear of judgment or rejection.

Harry, too, felt a sense of freedom. He was finally able to express his true feelings, without fear of being hurt or rejected.

As they walked, they came across a beautiful park, filled with lush green trees and vibrant flowers. Harry led Felix to a quiet spot, where they sat down on a bench, holding hands and gazing into each other's eyes.

"I love you, Felix," Harry whispered, his voice trembling with emotion.

Felix's heart skipped a beat as he turned to Harry, his eyes shining with tears. "I love you too, Harry," he whispered back.

As they sat there, holding hands and gazing into each other's eyes, Harry knew that he had found his forever love in Felix. And he knew that he would do anything to protect him, to make him happy, and to spend the rest of his life with him.

Felix, too, knew that he had found his forever love in Harry. And he knew that he would do anything to be with him, to make him happy, and to spend the rest of his life with him.

As the sun began to set, casting a warm golden glow over the park, Harry leaned over and kissed Felix softly on the lips.

Felix's heart skipped a beat as he wrapped his arms around Harry, deepening the kiss.

As they sat there, kissing and holding each other, Harry knew that he had found his home in Felix's arms. And he knew that he would never let him go.

Felix, too, knew that he had found his home in Harry's arms. And he knew that he would never let him go.

As the stars began to twinkle in the night sky, Harry and Felix sat there, holding each other, and gazing into each other's eyes, knowing that they had found their forever love in each other.

The next morning, Harry and Felix woke up early, feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. They got dressed and went downstairs to the hotel lobby, where they were greeted by the friendly receptionist.

"Good morning, gentlemen," she said with a smile. "How can I help you today?"

Harry smiled and took Felix's hand. "We're checking out," he said. "But we'd like to know if there are any romantic restaurants in the area that we could visit for breakfast."

The receptionist's eyes lit up with a smile. "Actually, there's a beautiful restaurant just a block away from here," she said. "It's called 'Love's Garden', and it's known for its romantic atmosphere and delicious food."

Harry's eyes lit up with excitement. "That sounds perfect," he said. "Can you give us directions?"

The receptionist nodded and handed them a map with directions to the restaurant. "You can't miss it," she said. "It's a beautiful place, and I'm sure you'll love it."

Harry smiled and took Felix's hand. "Thank you," he said. "We'll definitely check it out."

As they walked to the restaurant, hand in hand, Harry couldn't help but feel grateful for the love they shared. He knew that their relationship was still new, but he couldn't imagine spending his life with anyone else.

Felix, too, felt grateful for the love they shared. He knew that he had found his soulmate in Harry, and he couldn't wait to see what the future held for them.

As they arrived at the restaurant, they were greeted by the friendly hostess. "Welcome to Love's Garden," she said with a smile. "Right this way, please."

She led them to a beautiful table by the window, overlooking a lush garden filled with vibrant flowers and towering trees.

Harry and Felix sat down, holding hands and gazing into each other's eyes. They knew that this was just the beginning of their journey together, and they couldn't wait to see what the future held.

As they perused the menu, Harry couldn't help but feel excited about the day ahead

As they perused the menu, Harry couldn't help but feel excited about the day ahead. They decided to order a romantic breakfast for two, complete with fresh flowers, champagne, and a delicious meal.

As they waited for their food to arrive, Harry reached across the table and took Felix's hand. "I'm so happy to be here with you," he said, looking into Felix's eyes.

Felix smiled and squeezed Harry's hand. "I'm happy too," he said. "I feel like I've found my home with you, Harry."

Harry's heart skipped a beat at Felix's words. He felt the same way, like he had found his soulmate in Felix.

Their food arrived, and they spent the next hour enjoying their meal and each other's company. They talked and laughed, feeling more and more comfortable with each other.

As they finished their meal, Harry reached into his pocket and pulled out a small box. "I got you something," he said, opening the box to reveal a beautiful silver necklace with a small heart pendant.

Felix's eyes widened in surprise as he took the necklace from Harry. "It's beautiful," he said, putting it around his neck.

Harry smiled and leaned across the table to kiss Felix. "I'm glad you like it," he said. "I wanted to get you something special to remind you of how much I care about you."

Felix's eyes shone with tears as he looked at Harry. "I care about you too, Harry," he said. "More than you'll ever know."

As they finished their breakfast and prepared to leave, Harry knew that he had found his forever love in Felix. And he knew that he would do anything to make him happy.

They walked out of the restaurant, hand in hand, feeling like they were on top of the world. They knew that they still had challenges ahead of them, but they were ready to face them together.

As they walked, Harry turned to Felix and smiled. "I love you," he said.

Felix smiled back and leaned into Harry's side. "I love you too," he said.

And as they walked off into the sunset, hand in hand, Harry knew that their love would last a lifetime.

But little did they know, their love was about to be put to the test. Felix's father was still out there, and he was not going to give up easily.

As they walked, Felix's phone suddenly rang. He hesitated for a moment before answering it.

"Hello?" he said.

There was a pause on the other end of the line, and then a voice spoke up. "Felix, it's your father. I know you're with that detective, Harry. And I'm warning you, if you don't come back to me, I'll make sure that Harry pays the price."

Felix's eyes widened in fear as he looked at Harry. He knew that he had to protect Harry, no matter what.

"I won't come back to you," Felix said, his voice shaking with fear. "And I'll do whatever it takes to protect Harry."

There was a pause on the other end of the line, and then Felix's father spoke up again. "Fine," he said. "If that's the way you want it, then so be it. But you'll regret this, Felix. You'll regret ever crossing me."

And with that, the line went dead. Felix was left standing there, his heart racing with fear.

Harry immediately took Felix's hand and pulled him into a hug. "It's going to be okay," he said. "I'll protect you, no matter what."

Felix nodded, feeling a sense of relief wash over him. He knew that he could count on Harry to keep him safe.

But as they stood there, holding each other, Felix couldn't shake the feeling that they were in grave danger. His father was not a man to be underestimated, and Felix knew that he would stop at nothing to get what he wanted.

As they pulled back and looked at each other, Felix knew that they had to come up with a plan to take down his father once and for all. They couldn't keep running forever, and Felix was determined to face his father head-on.

"Let's go back to the hotel and come up with a plan," Felix said, his voice determined.

Harry nodded, his eyes locked on Felix's. "I'm with you, no matter what," he said.
