Hayden came out of his shock and replied to them.“You haven't learned about not bullying a girl.”“Hayden is the best.” Mia sent him a happy smile and a thumbs up. Hayden sat on the sofa. He leaned forward with a serious and concentrated expression on his face. “Hey y'all, let's talk about it now…” Hayden called for their attention, and they all turned to look at him. “Guys, what do you think about not going to the club…” Mason snorted and interrupted before Hayden could complete his sentence. “Haven't you learned the lesson of following orders?” Hayden glared at Mason. Talking about this jerk who's always the one to refute his words. Hayden scratched his head, knowing they don't seem to want to bend their so-called 'orders'.“Hm. But… We are minors.” He blurted out. Upon realizing his words, he almost beat himself up! What stupid lies and sh*tty excuses! Minors? Minors? Damn Hayden, you can do better! He thought and scowled at himself. They all turned to look at him contemptuou
“Your pills?” Jude shook the pill vials in front of Zenos whose head was bent as he 'worked' on a document, but everyone in the room knows that what he was actually doing isn't working. Zenos was emitting a freezing aura while glaring at the document, which was facing in the opposite direction it should. Jude dropped the pill in front of the 'sulking' Zenos while using that medium to turn the document correctly. Zenos raised his head to look at Jude. “What for?” He asked, talking about the pill. His voice was calm, yet there was undisguised anger that was evident in his eyes.“Damn, what's going on with you all day?” Sean can't take it anymore because Zenos has been glaring and emitting that cold aura all day. Even though it successfully scared the business partners into doing the deals at their own convenience, it kept sending them away earlier than they had planned.“You've been acting like a woman on her f******* period, bro,” Sean yelled, only for Zenos to brush him off with the
“You know it; I'm the law. And it takes nothing for me to suppress or crush you and the people behind you with my feet. I have that power, and no one can stop me when I mean it. Don't push your luck, Mr. Williams.” She warned, “You still detest my standing.” He said with a solemn frown; his fists were clenched, and his eyes had many words written in them. He bowed his head, and when he lifted it, all his raging emotions had been firmly suppressed. “But I'm still the best choice. And Miss Mia, please keep in mind that you're not the only one who soars; I also did, and…”“No matter what it is you do,” Mia interrupted; she leaned back like a goddess; her aura and appearance were ethereal, and it made everything pale. “Sell your soul to the devil or not; still, you'll always be beneath me. I'll keep trampling you with my feet.” She said, twirling her hair with boredom. William clenched his fist as he saw Mia's actions and reactions. He knew Mia never put him into thoughts; she never did
Mia blushed slightly at the sexy sight, but she quickly bowed her head so no one would see. “Nah. It's all Mia's idea; she's one hell of a planner!”“Hey!” Mia raised her face, which was now calm from her blushing. “It's everyone's opinions and actions that made it work,” Mia replied with a smile.“Did you just blush?” Mason teased, making it obvious that he saw Mia's blushing image, but didn't say earlier.“Shut up, I didn't!” She snapped at him.“I'm sure you did, man. Turns out you're not only manly, but you're also girly.” Mason teased, which made Mia puff up. “Be careful, or else I'll knock you out, so you won't be able to go to the club.” “Even if I die, I won't have any regrets, beautiful. But be my girlfriend first…”“Shut up. Stop teasing her, dude!” Hayden chastised Mason and smacked him right on the head. He found Mia's angry face pitiful.“Idiot,” Mason remarked. Mia froze for a few seconds, and her heart began to pound after Hayden showed his manliness. Has her efforts
Jude lifted his head away from his phone and answered. “159 opposite room 169.”“Wonderful numbering. It's right here. Identical shit!” Sean mumbled, which caused the three to send him a glance for his profanity. Room 159 is a private room. Room 169 is a well-soundproofed private party hall. No matter how loud the volume of a song or noise is, it can't spill out of the private room. Zenos knew, and the thought of it made him clench his fist.“That cunning bastard,” Zenos muttered after understanding what that person had planned.“Who's got on your nerves now?” David questioned casually, and that's when the door automatically opened to reveal a sexy, handsome man leaning on the chair. Xavier came across his Michael's best friends, no brothers, that evening for the first time, and it was surprising when he saw them not using masks. After all, he knew they only visited their business partners in masks. His assertion that Zenos knew everything immediately stood firm.“Is that sexy demon
“This will be one hell of a fun night. All the beautiful ladies. Here I come.” Mason yelled to his friends but calmly walked out like the dignified heir he was.“You promiscuous man, you have a girlfriend.” Hayden chided him and pulled him back by the collar.“Damn, I forgot. My baby is inside. I hurry in first,” Mason said, and he strode inside.“Me also.” Simon chirped and dashed in. Hayden and Philip turned to look at each other at the over-eagerness, then shrugged.“Hayden.” Mia came down from the car and stretched her hand to grab his arm. She smiled and placed her head on his shoulder. She was totally carefree, knowing there'd be no way a paparazzo could sneak in this time. Mia's plan for placing her claim on Hayden so that no bitch would seduce him, especially when he's looking most handsome, started tonight. Apart from that, she has made up her mind to begin her journey by making him hers. Hayden feigned a carefree smile; he removed his hand from hers and said. “Go on withou
“Prince Hayden. You're looking hot tonight.” A girl dressed in a black suit coupled with a miniskirt walked over. She had fake cat ears on her head. Hayden nodded at the girl while he tried to remember her face; he later remembered that she was a cheerleader.“I heard you don't have a partner tonight…” The cheerleader gave him a scheming smirk, which made his expression icy. She clink her glass with his.“Who said he doesn't have a partner?” Mia asked, slipping her hand around Hayden's shoulder and placing her head on his shoulder, protectively. The cheerleader's expression changed into an unhappy one. The person in front of her is Mia, a top star. So, she wasn't at that level where she could cross her. “Aren't you his friend?” She commented with a smile.“I'll be back,” Hayden muttered and left immediately before he was pulled into the childish banter that had begun to occur among the girls. Hayden was beginning to get offended by Mia's clingy actions, but he knew she was doing it
“It's a mistake… I'm sor…” Hayden tried to apologize, but he soon froze; his eyes widened, and his breath hitched when his eyes met those special blue eyes, Zenos's. There was a lady beside Zenos, and even though they both looked serious like they were talking about business, it made Hayden boil in fury because he had a feeling that she was the secretary that the matchmaker person was talking about.“Zenos.” Hayden whispered in a soft, calm, yet firm tone. His eyes searched the man's eyes for any emotions, but what he saw was nonchalance. Xavier looked bored at the interaction; he leaned back with amusement and curiosity, but there seemed to be something mischievous and wild playing in his blue eyes as he asked Zenos. “You know him?”“No,” Zenos replied without hesitation, which made Hayden glare at him. Bastard! He ignored him on purpose, just because he was in the presence of that girl. Cruel man! He cursed inwardly.“Dare to say that again?” Hayden glared at Zenos with anger and
Hayden's eyes flew wide open, and he made an attempt to stretch his body, but in the next second, tears slipped past his eyes, and he stared at the ceiling. Why does his hand ache so much? Ah! What's wrong with his body again? It’s really too much! Hayden slowly but achingly walked towards his phone. However, by the time Hayden checked his phone, he was completely shocked… Hayden could remember that he left his phone charging last night, but how come his phone is completely turned off right now? Not only was the charging socket off but his phone's battery was completely shut down. His phone battery isn't the type to drain for no reason! A wicked grin immediately crept onto Hayden's lips. Something is extremely fishy. Now, he doesn't believe that Zenos is truly innocent. Tonight, he'll change his plan. Let's see if Zenos will be able to hide again! Hayden smirked evilly, the plan on how to catch Zenos pervading his mind. He should have expected that his plan was childish in the b
Hayden drowsily stretched his arms and yawned leisurely. His hand flew towards his eyes, and he leisurely rubbed his eyes.His eyes flew wide open, and he evaluated himself. It seems falling asleep is the best health treatment. His arms and body feel so much better after sleeping.Hayden's finger landed on his lips, and he slowly stroked them. It's just that his lips don't seem to go with the flow and still remain the same from when he woke up in the morning.However, everything feels so great. Suddenly, Hayden paused, and his eyes shone with an enigmatic glint.The ointment seems to work despite Zeno teasing his chest.Hayden immediately became energetic, and he sat up while stretching actively. He could probably do some painting, or he could just tease Zenos too…Definitely teasing Zenos.Even though Zenos' expression shows innocence, Hayden doesn't fall for it, and he believes that his situation can only be none other than Zenos' handiwork. After all, who could step into the room i
Hayden's eyes flew wide open, and he leisurely yawned, “Ha… Ahh. Ahh. Ahh. It hurts.” Hayden's leisure yawns were immediately replaced with a pitiful cry and teary eyes. Hayden sucked in a cold breath and evaluated his aching body. He slept fine last night. Why does his whole body ache now? Especially his red dots, which felt as if they had been sucked sore. Ah! His hand feels so heavy too. This feeling feels like whenever he used his hand to help Zenos. Ahem. Hayden almost smacked himself. How could he have such naughty thoughts at such a serious time? “Ahhh!” Hayden let out a pitiful cry upon using his aching hand to mistakenly touch his stiff and sore red dots.This feels so unusual. Very unusual! And very painful. Immediately, Hayden's eyes landed on the bed. Did Zenos come in? Hayden took a glance at the door, and he immediately rejected the idea. Judging by how everything seemed fine the way he left it before he fell asleep, it could be seen that Zenos didn't step into t
Silence fell immediately, but in the next second, Zenos' broke into a peal of sarcastic laughter, cruelly poking into Xavier's wound. He fell silent in the next second and asked, “Why?” Xavier leaned forward and truthfully replied, his eyes filled with regret. “Dealing with business and failing to return for weeks.” Oh. Zenos fell silent, and his eyes fell on the beautiful city view, his expression deep and enigmatic and his thoughts unfathomable. "How?" A rueful smile appeared on Xavier's face, and he ran his hands through his hair. "On a business trip that was supposed to take three days, I ended up spending two weeks. Every day coaxing and promising to return the next day.” And when he finally arrived at the mansion a few hours ago, Xavier made his return a surprise. The man had eagerly kissed him, jumped on him, and attended to him well while acting clingy, leaving no trace of suspicion in Xavier's mind. Who knew that when Xavier was about to step into the room and hug the
Hayden puckered his lips and rolled around on the bed. He sighed heavily and tightly clutched the pillow. Hayden is certain that Zenos will feel bad for not being able to cuddle with him, right? Especially when Zenos thought about not being able to kiss and touch Hayden for three days. Zenos had always been touchy and couldn't do without kissing the boy, hugging him, etc. Hehe. Serves Zenos right! Suddenly, Hayden's eyes shone, and he giggled. Zenos, that person has always been strict when it comes to Hayden. Seeing Zenos nervous and the tide switching. Hayden inexplicably feels good, and his illusionary tail hangs high into the clouds. Serves Zenos right. Hmph. Zenos won't only be missing Hayden, but he won't be able to act touchy or bully him for three days! The more Hayden thought like this, the more eager he was to experience these three days. Hayden leisurely rubbed his eyes and yawned. He slipped into the bedcover and covered himself. Soon, his eyes shut, and he f
The sensor-activated range hood and air purifiers already began to operate after detecting the exuding smoke. Due to the fact that he had returned to the study, Zenos hadn't heard the timer finish its timer countdown, so the oven continued to work. Zenos pulled open the oven, and his expression changed upon seeing the Turducken's current state. The expected crispy brown turkey is now burnt and dark, its edges slightly blackened. A sense of dread hit Zenos immediately. The boy already warned Zenos not to mess things up, or else he'll be really infuriated. The boy's infuriated expression immediately appeared in Zenos' mind, and his heart sank. If the turkey skin is burnt, then the inside…Zenos grabbed a knife and sliced the turkey, clearly hoping that the damage was minimal. His expression slipped upon noticing that the turkey meat was dry around the edges, its moisture beginning to evaporate. The outer layer of the duck is overcooked and drier than it should be. However, th
The Heart product that the sweet tongue Hayden was completely obsessed with was a completely new product and brand Zenos created solely because of Hayden's sweet tongue. Months ago, when Zenos first presented the new product to the shareholders, the product idea was completely opposed by a lot of shareholders. After all, the company has always done something different, so why would their company stoop so low to do something risky and low like creating junk like chocolate, cookies, etc.? What if it doesn't sell? Regardless of the shareholders' disgruntlement and rejections, Zenos went on to launch the product with his resources. Even though Heart was just a product that was launched in less than one month with no advertisement made, it broke world record sales and became the nation's favorite and the most expected snack brand in the country in less than a month! By then, the shareholders who all went against it could only bite their fingers in regret. Seeing the huge profits that
"Zen, you can back out and let me bid.” Hayden smacked his lips together and raised his head to stare at Zenos seriously; his actions of helping Zenos fix the apron came to a pause.Hayden saying this… It's not that Hayden looked down on or underestimated Zenos' ability to make a turducken. After all, Zen is the best, and Zen is a multi-talented genius.It's just that Zenos has been busy dealing with company work since the past week, and Zenos doing this means that Zenos won't be able to complete the work he had to do during this time.This means that Zenos has extended his work, and the time Zenos is supposed to spend resting will be spent completing the work.Furthermore, judging by the details on the web and cooking recipes, Turducken requires focus and patience, which means that at the end of the day, Zenos will be tired.Zenos is already busy dealing with work, and Hayden has been trying to make Zenos rest; the thought of adding Turducken to all this chaos doesn't sit well with H
Hayden hummed rhythmically and shook his perky butt to the tune, his hands drawing and painting and his eyes fixated on the drawing.Suddenly, Hayden's phone alarm rang, interjecting Hayden's actions.Upon hearing the alarm sound, Hayden straightened his back, carefully took the painting, and hid it at the back of the shelf.Immediately, Hayden returned to the board and took out another paper. He began to doodle on the paper and resume his humming and shaking.Zenos silently opened the door and stepped into the gallery in order not to disturb someone. Upon seeing the enticing sight of Hayden shaking his butt while humming rhythmically, Zenos paused and gulped.Immediately, Zenos strode toward the boy and smacked his perky butt, albeit gently.Hayden's face flushed, and his ear turned red. He straightened his back and turned back to glare at Zenos fiercely. "What was that for?" He uttered with a harrumph.Zenos extended his hands and hugged Hayden from behind, his hands slowly massagin
