To prove that he wasn’t thinking too much, Hayden even video-called the guys and Mia while having his upper body bare. Zenos had always been protective of the boy's body, and he never wanted to see the boy show skin to anyone else. If it were the Zenos Hayden was acclimated to, the person would have thrown Hayden on the bed and tossed him about fiercely for daring to do such a brazen thing. However, the person only took a glance at Hayden before continuing his work, not choosing to comment on Hayden’s brazen action, unlike before! No matter how Hayden tried to think it through, he failed to find a satisfactory reason. Hayden squinted, and he tugged his silver hair in confusion. It can’t be that Zenos that person can’t do it anymore? Upon arrival at that conclusion, Hayden’s eyes widened. It was as if he finally got a lead on the thought that had always bugged him! Thinking about the big monster not being able to do it anymore is really pitiful! It’ll really be sad indeed, but...H
Zenos extended his hand and ruffled the boy’s hair gently. “Baby, I didn't know it bothered you this much. Do you think I don't want you anymore? I do. I really do. Look.” Without hesitation, Zenos grabbed the boy’s hand and used it to touch his rising bulge. Feeling the existence of the large, familiar monster, a certain memory began to invade Hayden’s head. Hayden’s face and ears flushed deeply, and a whole sense of anger overwhelmed him. Hayden quickly pulled back his hand, and he glared at Zenos with teary, limpid eyes due to embarrassment. "You pervert,” he retorted, but his voice ended up emitting a thin, whiny voice to Hayden’s dismay.Zenos’ lips curled upward in a mischievous smirk, and he bit the boy’s ear slightly. “En. Want to see? A pervert tailor-made for young master baby Hayden." Zenos’ lips curled up, and a mischievous glint flickered past his eyes.Without waiting for the boy’s response, he bends slightly and picks up the boy in bridal style.By this time, Hayden’s
Several people repeatedly made their way in and out of the airport. An eye-catching female figure dressed in a red suit and its red skirt that fell on her thigh pulled luggage behind her and casually strode out of the airport, with a Bluetooth earpod in one of her ears and a phone in her right hand. Even with her face mask on, the girl repeatedly caught the lingering stares of the crowd, which she ignored.A man in his late twenties donning a suit suddenly hurried forward and only came to a stop in front of the girl. He bowed respectfully to the girl before stretching out his hand to collect the girl’s luggage, which she effortlessly passed to him. “Welcome miss…”“Hm.” Jade took off her mask and elegantly stretched her body before nodding casually. “Has the mansion been prepared yet? I’ll be in Grail for a while.” Jade articulated in a calm tone and elegantly tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear, her action depicting elegance yet seductiveness.The man in a suit was absent-m
Andy stood in his office and stared down at the busy city with glazed eyes. His eyes subconsciously lowered to his phone. He unlocked his phone and went through his phone app, mail app, and chatting app as if searching for something important.Even after scrolling through all the apps on his phone, he failed to discover what he was looking for, making his whole person appear downcast.Andy tossed the phone into his trousers pocket, and the glint in his eyes became complicated. His gaze fell on the busy city, and he felt very uncomfortable. It was dark, but still, he could only stay in the office…“CEO Andy.” The sudden call from his assistant broke his thoughts.Even without turning to look at his assistant, Andy already knew what the person was in his office for. “Place them on the table and leave.” He calmly ordered“Ok,” the person replied and strode towards Andy’s table. Carefully and silently, he placed the documents on the table. He straightened his back and stared at Andy’s bac
Craig leisurely strode out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist. He casually used the towel in his hand to dry his wet hair while striding toward his hair treatment section. Craig extended his hand to pick up his hair dryer, but before he could successfully pick it up, his phone suddenly rang, attracting Craig's attention.Craig’s brows arched, and he strode towards his bed immediately. He picked up his phone to see an unknown number calling him. His brows furrowed slightly, yet he accepted the call and placed the phone next to his ear. “Hey...”“Did you know Big Brother Sean specially curated a list of places just to find the perfect city for me to spend my vacation? If you don’t, I just wanted to tell you that.” Xena’s charming voice, filled with extreme cockiness, drifted into Craig’s ear. Xena’s voice was filled with so much smugness that it was clear that she wanted to show off while gloating at Craig.Craig’s expression changed, and his lips pursed in a thin li
As soon as Zenos’s car arrived at the mansion, Hayden jumped down from the car with a beam without waiting for Zenos to park. Zenos’ expression turned dark in an instant. This rascal still hasn’t stopped his naughty yet dangerous behavior. Zenos expertly parked his car and swiftly alighted from it. He strode towards Hayden, who stood at a spot, waiting patiently for Zenos. Upon seeing the gloomy expression on Zenos’ face, Hayden’s heart skipped a beat, and he had the impulse to chide himself fiercely. He smacked his lips together. How could he behave so recklessly in Zenos’ presence? His behind trembled while he thought that he must really have a tossing wish.Zenos had always been strict with Hayden’s safety, and Hayden knew that. Hayden didn’t believe that he'd momentarily lose himself and do such reckless things in Zenos’ presence. If Hayden had recalled himself, even if he had 900 lives, he would never dare jump down from a moving car.Hayden snapped out of his thoughts and im
"Zenos, did Michael, Jude, David, and Sean come with you?” As soon as everyone stood up from the dining table, Jade rushed to Zenos’ side and began to pester him with questions. It was as if Jade was trying to flaunt Zenos and Jade’s relationship at Hayden, and the boys. At the mention of Sean, Jade felt a sudden, piercing stare fall on her. The gaze was so fierce that it made her hair stand on end. Jade’s brows furrowed, and she turned around to find the owner of the gaze. Unfortunately, when she turned around, she failed to capture whoever it was.Craig’s lips pursed in gloom. He’s already sulking about Xena; does this person want to join the list?Unlike Hayden, Craig won’t give anyone a chance. Yes, he won’t give them the chance to cast their bewitching eyes on his man. Regardless of their gender, he’ll throw them out before they can touch his man. And then warn Sean fiercely! At the sight of the duo, Hayden felt as if his heart had been clenched deeply, making it exceptionally
Hayden shook his head in rejection. "I'm annoyed with her. I can't stand her for a second..."Caleb grabbed Hayden’s shoulders and stared directly into Hayden’s green eyes. "That's the reason you have to be cool. I've always known you to be cool, regardless of the situation we are in. Why would you lose your cool at the most serious thing? This mansion belongs to you; just kick her out." Caleb articulated. If Zenos dares to support Jade, that means Zenos isn’t worthy of Hayden’s affection, and they need to separate the two before Hayden gets worse in his clinginess. Caleb inwardly thought. "Hm.” The boys nodded in support of Caleb’s statement.“Haven’t you noticed? Jade is playing her game smoothly? Approaching like a friend but playing a girlfriend role.” Philip shook his head at Hayden as if he'd been telling Hayden that he was stupid.Mason eyed Hayden with a disapproving glare. It was as if he wanted to whack Hayden to death due to Hayden’s rash action. "Why the hell do you have
Hayden leisurely lay on his stomach while flailing his legs, his hand holding his phone tight and his fingers tapping the keyboard rapidly early that morning, leisurely chatting with those rascals in the mansion. It was vivid that Hayden was in a good mood after all; a certain person didn’t wake up with an aching body that morning!Just thinking about it feels great and makes his mood extremely surreal; even his face seems to have a permanent smile on it. Suddenly, the bedroom door was opened, and a darkened face, Zenos, strode into the room at a long and fast pace. Feeling the fierce aura exuding from Zenos, Hayden’s eyes flew wide open, and he turned to Zenos in bewilderment, "What are you… Mmmhhh." Hayden had yet to complete his statement when he was pressed down and kissed ferociously by the dark-faced Zenos. Soon, Hayden was flipped over by Zenos, and his hands were pinned above him. Hayden’s brain rang, and he became alarmed... What. What was happening? How can Zenos pres
Zenos pushed the door and strode into the room calmly. His lips curved up, and he shut the door behind them. The boy had been so sure of trapping Zenos with his plans so much that the boy didn’t bother to shut the door tonight. Only if the boy knew how much Zenos took precautions! Zenos gently sat next to the boy; his soft eyes landed on Hayden's adorable and pure sleeping face. Hayden sleeping like this made him appear so free, pure, and untainted by the world's darkness. It made Zenos want to protect the boy from any harm.Zenos' lips curved up upon recalling the boy’s naughty antics from earlier. His hand fell on the boy’s hair, and he softly brushed Hayden’s hair with his hand. Zenos’s lips curved upward, and a light chuckle spilled past his lips, "How'd you get the mind to torture me, babe?" The boy should have known that riling Zenos’ desire would make Hayden wake up with increasing pain. However, the boy has always been naughty; who knows if the boy enjoys the… Suddenly, H
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
