Zenos scoffed in amusement. “Unbeneficial to you? You're the one at a loss? When did it become your turn to claim those words? Who was the one crying, begging, and panting for more, faster while I do the work?”. Zenos accused, making the multiple feelings coursing through Hayden disperse as he began to blush in embarrassment.
“Never, I didn't say it!” Hayden cried out in denial, flustered. He glared at Zenos for making him lose the composure he was trying to gather easily.
“You don't like to admit it, do you?” Zenos was able to point out Hayden's behavior easily.
“It's true that it was not beneficial to me. My back was the one not functioning now, not yours.” He complained in annoyance.
“Unbeneficial to you, you said again?” Zenos strides toward Hayden, who's glaring at him, and holds his (H) chin with a dark expression. “You have lots of courage, young boy.”
“Stop calling me a young boy,” Hayden said irritatedly and smacked Zenos's hand away. “Don't act as if you're that much older than me!” He glared back at Zenos not in any way showing a stance of backing off.
“Nice counter back and courage, but the last person who did that vanished out of the earth.” Zenos threatened Hayden darkly.
Hayden's eyes widened and slowly morphed into one of horror under Zenos's wicked gaze. “You'll kill me? Not only did you take advantage of me in my drunk state, now you want to kill me. Don't you think you're shameless and heartless?” Hayden was in disbelief and he cried out angrily. Not at all showing traces of weakness, which caused Zenos to be amused.
“No, I don't!” Zenos cut in straightforwardly while staring back at green eyes.
Hayden quickly said eagerly. “I tell you, if you ever think of killing me, you won't go scot-free.”
“Is that why you're crying?” Zenos taunted.
Hayden froze due to Zenos's words. Who's crying? How can he cry? He… but the mocking expression on Zenos's face unconsciously got him believing.
Was he actually crying? He thought and with that, he immediately raised his hand to touch his cheeks, and upon feeling nothing, he glared at the shameless pervert who's now a liar. “Who's crying?” He asked in anger while wishing he had the strength to bash the pervert's head on the wall for lying to him. But wait!
“How is your expression in the morning different from last night?” Zenos asked him. If he didn't see Hayden's expression in bed last night, it'll be hard to link Hayden with the active person last night.
Wait, what? Hayden touched his face again and unlike before, he didn't feel it; all he felt was the absence of the thing on his face making him freeze for a few seconds. His eyes widened immediately as he recollected himself. “Where's it?” Hayden asked in a too calm voice.
“What?” Zenos teased even though he knew what Hayden was looking for, and Hayden upon seeing Zenos' look knew the person was messing around with him.
“Where's my mask? How did you know about it?” Hayden yelled out with mixed feelings.
“Oh! The mask? It has been discarded.” Zenos said with all seriousness that made him freeze.
'It has been discarded. It has been discarded.' Zenos's words continued to resound in Hayden's head even after a few seconds. “Dis… Huh?” Hayden's eyes widened, and he revealed an unreadable expression within a second.
“Kidding,” Zenos said, a glint flashing in his eyes as he saw Hayden's mixed expression within a few seconds. “There!” He pointed towards the nightstand where the skin mask was neatly laid.
Hayden's fast-beating heart immediately slowed back to normal after Zenos' clarification. And he can't help but sigh in relief, but there's one thing that makes him clench his hand. Did this person look at his face while they were doing it? And didn't he feel… Hayden quickly brushes away the question, how does that matter?
Hayden stared at the suspicious stranger angrily, and he couldn't help but wonder how he knew about his mask. For over 5 years, he has worn the mask around the world and to different countries yet no one ever knows about it and now this person already knows about it after meeting him in just a night.
“How did you know about it?” Hayden asked Zenos once more, looking at Zenos with a cold and murderous glint that amused Zenos. A little kitten trying to scare a lion. Zenos thought while eyeing Hayden's 'seductive' expression.
“You don't seem good yourself. You're looking at me with a murderous glint! I'm scared.” Zenos feigned, making Hayden glare at him in annoyance. 'Can Zenos ever be serious?' Hayden thought in annoyance.
“I'm asking how'd you know about my mask!” Hayden yelled stubbornly, which made Zenos know Hayden was at his limit and he would blow up if he teased him once more.
“You told me yourself!” Zenos shrugged and white lied. He knew Hayden wasn't only concerned about his identity, which he is trying to hide. He knew that Hayden wearing a mask was likely related to his accident. The boy is scarred!
Hayden was dumbfounded at Zenos's reply. How come it was his fault again? This isn't the first time he was drunk and whenever he did, he never lost control. How come everything has changed ever since he saw Zenos? Not only did he seduce Zenos while he(H) was drunk, Hayden even took off his mask for this stranger. He looked at Zenos suspiciously. Who is this person?
Zenos whispered in Hayden's ears, blowing it and chuckling inwardly as Hayden looked at him suspiciously. “Someone told me; if you touch me, I'll show you my face, and I'll stay with you forever!” Zenos said next to Hayden's ear while blowing it with his (Z) warm breath, making his (H) eyes widen and a rare red stain his(H) cheeks.
Somehow, Hayden's heart started beating fast when Zenos came closer. What the hell is wrong with his heart? Hayden thought in annoyance, and he pushed away the smirking Zenos.
Everything rare to Hayden was made normal to Hayden in just a morning with Zenos. Hayden could see that it wasn't a good sign!
Hayden's blushing face immediately cleared when he recalled Zenos' words. “Forever?” He questioned with a lost expression, which Zenos didn't reply to.
“Would you like to take a bath, my darling?” Zenos instead lifted Hayden's chin and kissed him softly, his calm expression changing to a heated one as he eyed the beautiful mark he placed on the boy's skin.
“Thank you. No!” Hayden donned a disgusted expression on, and he coldly said. He immediately pushed Zenos away after seeing Zenos's heated expression. He refused to give himself to a wolf once more.
“Too bad.” Zenos shrugged and left for the bathroom.

Michael opened a chat with no image, but saved as Xavie. He scrolled through the chat carefully, but with a sad expression. He was sad when he saw the date that they had both chatted last.
His hand lingered on the send message as he wished he had the courage to send a greeting to the person.
Michael wondered if the person ever thought of him or looked for him ever since the time he ran away from him, or if the person has moved on. His friends knew he left home, but no one knows the real reason why he did.
And now he blushed when he thought of the stupid reason why he left. Even thinking about it made him ashamed, but he was young and everything felt like a burden.
After his actions, he regretted it, but it was too late. He sighed and exited the chat. He was near yet far to him.
“Doctor Michael, the break is over!” His assistant said to him, he nodded and stood up.

“Zenos didn't come home last night, that lonely billionaire era is gone,” David said as he made his way to the sofa.
“Falling in love is scary, just a night, and he's running away from his boys. I could see that he's not different from the billionaires mentioned in all the novels that are getting popular these days!”
“Tell me, are you reading those books too?” David asked Sean with suspicion.
“I'm wise enough to know what's latest even if I'm locked in a cave!” He sneered and walked to the fridge to take an orange. “Unlike someone!”
(…) David. Who doesn't know the latest?
When Hayden saw Zenos enter the bathroom, Hayden immediately tried to sit up, but the pain that shot down his spine made him cry out in pain. “Damn Zenos. It hurts!”As soon as Hayden managed to climb down the bed and stand up, he cried out in pain, he held and slowly rubbed his paining waist. Hayden's legs were shaking, his behind was painful and throbbing. He felt dizzy and weak, which caused him to collapse to the ground. The intense pain caused tears to drop from his eyes and without knowing he really started crying. Why? How come? He and a stranger. His eyes traced the used condoms on the floor, the used condoms that were used on him. Hayden's right hand made its way to his hair. His heart began to beat faster as he slowly tried to arrange his thoughts. He disliked gays ever since that incident, but how come he wasn't disgusted by Zenos's? Don't tell him that he wasn't straight from the beginning. No, he shook his head and cleaned his tears. Last night he still felt irritate
(A/N: All Hayden's words and actions in the chapter are slurred because he is drunk, but for the reader's convenience, I decided not to break the speech!) Only God knows what the boy read from his phone, his face suddenly turned beet red in annoyance, and he suddenly downed the alcohol in his hand in one gulp. He continued his actions until he was drunk. His low guard attracted many people to his side. Zenos was more annoyed when a potbellied middle-aged man with an evil motive approached the drunk Hayden. The man's name is Mr. Daniel. He was a rich pedophile who always took fancy to young and fresh meat like Hayden but hasn't been caught by the law because he always used his money to bribe the authorities whenever he was caught. Zenos was so annoyed that without thinking, he walked downstairs toward Hayden. By the time he reached Hayden's side, he saw the middle-aged man reaching out his hand to Hayden's face saying: “little boy, follow this uncle alright, don't be stubborn!” Mr.
Zenos arched his eyebrows at Hayden's words. He didn't know Hayden was this tough and with Hayden acting like this, Zenos wondered if Hayden had faced something similar to this in the past. Is that one of the reasons why Hayden wore a mask? Zenos was getting more interested in this person. Mr. Daniel upon hearing Hayden's words at once tried to grab Hayden's trousers, but Hayden ducked staggeringly while stepping on Mr. Daniel's hand as hard as possible.“Please, not my children.” He cried out with tears, snots, and sweats coming out of his face, nose, and body. “They are innocent, please. If you want to blame or punish anyone, just do it to me, please not my kids, they are still young!” The middle man begged as tears streamed down his eyes profusely. “Then what about those little children you're assaulting, aren't they innocent, aren't they here to have fun? Weren't you the evil one who ruined their life? You care about your children, but you ruined other people's lives.” Hayden's
Hayden's face moved closer, and suddenly, his lips fell on Zenos's cheek. This is simply too much! Zenos's guards thought in anger, but whenever one of them tried to remove the unrestrained young master's hand that was clinging onto Zenos, Hayden would hold Zenos closer and pull for his dear life. When the drunk Hayden saw that the bodyguard would soon throw him off, he bit on Zenos's hand and pulled Zenos's skin with his teeth as the bodyguard pulled him. Hayden laughed wickedly. Pulled him, he hurt the handsome! Seeing their boss being hurt by Hayden, they reluctantly let go. Hayden smiled smugly and turned to Zenos. “Buddy, tell them to let go!” He whispered silently so only Zenos could hear. Zenos's eyes immediately darkened in anger. 'Buddy? He was just a buddy to Hayden? Does Hayden think he's just like that Andy guy?' he thought in annoyance. “What's my reward?” Zenos asked. Hayden's eyes lit up, and his lips fell on Zenos's. “Reward!” He muttered drunkenly. Zenos was
Unknowing that the robe was personally designed by Zenos and all Zenos's friends wanted to have one, but Zenos didn't agree, to his friend's annoyance. After finding new toiletries. Weird, that he found his size. Hayden soon froze! Is this person a playboy? But wait, he reconsiders it when he discovers that it's only two there, and they were his size only, maybe this person prepared it for him. His lips curved up into a smile, and he hurriedly pulled on the clothes. He picked up his phone with a sigh, and he remembered his clothes. Sighs! That means he would just have to say bye to his expensive buttons.Hayden walked to the bedroom door happily while thinking that after leaving this place he'd make sure to run away from Zenos. And never to set eyes upon him. He even promised himself to forget about last night and Zenos altogether. Perhaps not so fast because when Hayden tried to open the door, to his annoyance, it was locked. Shit! It was locked and there was no key at the door
“I don't want to,” he said and shrugged, “but since you've been seducing me ever since you came out of the bathroom… I decided to.” Zenos continued with a smirk while fanning Hayden with his hot breath. Only if Hayden had changed his clothes quietly and decided to act redundantly in the room, he would have acted according to his promise. Instead, Hayden waltzed out of the bathroom in a pink robe, and he even tried to threaten him. Watching Hayden's pink lips and body is enough to remind him of yesterday's affair, which he certainly can't get enough of. Hayden's eyes widened in shock! What the hell is he seducing? He was trying to threaten! Hope you know? Threaten! He changed his eyes to a puppy one. “I promise to be good from now on. I won't run away from you, either. Just let me go” he lied just to bait Zenos. Zenos knew all Hayden's words were lies just to make Zenos release him, so unexpectedly he purposely bit Hayden's sensitive area and Hayden mistakenly let out a moan. Hayd
“Zenos!” David typed.'WTH?''How come?''Is that possible? Can Zenos fall in love?'“Why not?” Zenos suddenly texted, making the people in the group fall silent, they rubbed their eyes and pinched themselves to see if they were dreaming.'The Father had talked. Am I sleeping?'“Boring!” Zenos texted and then logged out, only to see Hayden staring at him complicatedly. “Are you jealous?”“Why would I?” Hayden said in a retort, “I don't even like you!” Hayden retorted fiercely. Zenos suddenly felt a pang of sadness in his heart, but he revealed indifference. “Oh!” It's not easy to fall in love, he understands, but why did he feel that pain when he wasn't even in love with the boy? Hearing that reply made Hayden feel ashamed of his words, but he already said it and he has no intention to apologize. Anyway, nothing can happen between them, so it's best to say it bluntly now. Hayden bit his lips and rubbed his neck. He was suddenly nervous for no reason. “Erm…” What the hell is he doin
“You want to measure my strength.” Zenos suddenly sent a punch to his right side, making someone groan. “Useless!” Zenos said, and all Hayden did was grab popcorn while watching the fight. He heard groans. Now, he dunno which is Zenos or his guards. Not up to 10 minutes, the light was turned on, and what Hayden saw shocked him. Zenos knocked 20 of his guards out and not a part of his shirt wrinkled. He didn't even break a sweat. “You?”“Cat got your tongue!” Zenos said and towered over Hayden authoritatively. “I said once it failed, it's no one's fault when I whipped your butt,” Zenos said, and immediately flipped Hayden on his stomach. Hayden was confident before, but now he can't help but gulp in fear. “You… You'll whip my ass?” With that inhumane strength. Dang, he doesn't think he can survive.“You scared?” Zenos chuckled in amusement. Actually, he wasn't a bit surprised because he knew Hayden is very tricky and won't let go easily. “Who's scared?” He said, trying to hide his n
