Chapter 26 - Going Down
Last Updated:
2024-02-25 20:16:12Aian grinned.
He had a different set of guards today, presumably something to do with the parkour course they were at earlier and they had been lost in a matter of minutes.
To be fair, he had the added advantage of being able to slip through traffic on his scooter while knowing the streets around his apartment inside out.
He felt the buzz of his phone in his pocket not long after he thought he had lost them.
Kalvin unwittingly confirmed his successful escape. Aian would probably be paying for all the havoc sooner rather than later but he was going to keep his freedom as long as possible.
He wondered what Kalvin would do once his patience snapped and his own body heated at the thought.
He had a sneaking suspicion that Kalvin might use it as an excuse to make him more familiar with the feeling of being unable to move on his bed in his penthouse; it seemed exactly like something the older man would do.<

By the time Aiandeemed it safe to head back to his scooter and head home, he only had time for a few hours’ sleep before he wanted to be up and off to the police station to see his contact. He carefully cleaned out the wound on his hand; it wasn’t too deep to need stitches but it hurt like hell. The cut ran across the top of his palm, under the joints of his last three fingers on his right hand. He patched it up as best as he could but he’d keep an eye on it in case of infection. He couldn’t exactly afford a trip to the doctor right now. The trip to the police station had been uneventful. The photos were enough evidence to issue a search warrant on Jerry’s properties to trytoget enough concrete proof to put him away for good. The officer at the station warned him to lie low for a while, as Jerrywould not be happy about being caught and Aianwas inclined to agree with him. He mentally promised not to lose his guards

Photos sent off and feeling rather peckish, Aiandecided to go for a walk in search of food.It was midafternoon and he had been so busy that he had forgotten lunch.Aianfelt a little guilty as the phone in his pocket buzzed again but he didn’t make a move to pick it up.Kalvinhad been trying to call him all morning and he had been avoiding his calls. He knew he was in trouble and he knew he was making it worse by not picking up, but he couldn’t bring himself to answer.Aianknew the guards followed him at a discreet distance and honestly, he was surprised that they hadn’t been ordered to drag him back to his twin flame.He could only assume the older man was busy and would come get him himself once he had the chance.The phone stopped buzzing and he let out a little sigh of relief.Communication was relationship 101, his mother had drilled that into his head all throughout his teens and h

The limo took off, presumably toward the penthouse, and Aianwriggled his way onto his back to glare at Kalvin.His lover still hadn’t spoken and was lighting up a cigarette.The air felt heavy with tension. All of Kalvin’s movements were tightly controlled and he seemed to be holding together by iron will alone.Aianhadn’t expected quite this reaction but maybe some part of him had known and that was why he ranaway.The twin flamebond was complex and little was known about it.Could he have expected this reaction subconsciously?Kalvinstill remained silent and had not once looked at Aiansince entering the limo.Such a reaction from a man who outwardly showed little emotion wouldn't be surprising, except he had never really kept his mask up in front of Aian.From the very beginning, he had let the photographer see more of himself than he showed others, something he had only j

“So, my naughty little angel,” Kalvinhusked out and Aianfelt heat intensifying low in his belly at the sinister tone and squirmed in Kalvin’s lap.His own erection was pressed into Kalvin’s thigh and Kalvin’s already hard cock poked into his stomach.“I was going to give you a proper punishment but how about we start with something small, hmm? A little more intimate than what I had originally planned,” the hand continued to stroke and dipped down into the crease of his ass. “Are you going to be able to stay still or do I need to tie you up a little more?”While Aianhad his hands tied still, none of hisotherlimbs were secured to anything yet and he shook his head.“No, it’s fine.”Kalvinhummed in response and gave his ass one last caress then lifted his hand away. Aiantensed in anticipation. He jolted and cried out in shock as the hand s

Aianstared into the fridge.Of course it was empty.Kalvindidn’t exactly strike him as the cooking type. Well, it wasn’t entirely empty but alcohol did not count as food contrary to what Kalvinseemed to think.He shut the fridge and opened the freezer underneath to find a few different sizes of ice cubes and nothing else.Aiansighed. He wanted to make something for dinner as a small gesture of thanks for staying with Kalvinfor the last three days. Not that his twin flameminded, of course.He had been quite keen to make full use of having Aianaround and it had left him feeling drained enough that he had spent the times Kalvinwasn’t home either sleeping or lazing around on the couch with the TV remote in hand.While he enjoyed eating takeout over the last few days, he was craving a home cooked meal and he was sure Kalvinwould appreciate it as well. With another small sigh,

The mission had been a success.Of course they had to go to an expensive, high class supermarket, Kalvin’s orders, who else?Aian had initially been embarrassed walking into such a snobby place with his favourite ripped jeans and a t-shirt pulled from the collection that had been given a home in Kalvin’s ridiculously large wardrobe, but the sneers directed at him had subdued quickly once Caleb’s looming presence was spotted.While the prices continuously made Aianwince, he had to admit he was impressed with the choices available.He wandered up every single aisle, determined to not forget anything, only to be stopped in his tracks by the incredible variety of fancy and imported sweets.He ogled the shelves for a while before nabbing a couple packs of his favourite sweets; he wasn’t about to go overboard but Kalvincould spare a few dollars for treats.He spent some time picking out the various condiments re

Soft light streamed through the curtains, bathing the room in a warm but muted glow.There was barely enough light to pierce the darkness of night, it must still be early.Kalvintook a deep breath in and could faintly smell Aian’s shampoo, a clean scent with the hint of apples. He reflexively tightened his grip around his lover’s waist, pulling him closer against his chest.Aianshifted in his sleep before snuggling closer still.It had been a week since Aiancame to stay in the penthouse with him after Jerry’s exposure and subsequent arrest.For all Kalvin’s power and influence,it had proven surprisingly difficult to stop more threats against the photographer.A more effective choice would have been to out Aianas Kalvin’s twin flame, but that had its own dangers.So far, few people had caught on to that knowledge and while it would be useful for the short term, it would potent

Aianslipped out of bed a few hours after Kalvinoriginally woke him up, leaving the man sleeping peacefully in bed.He padded into the kitchen, grabbing the chequered apron and tying it in place before he set about making a nice breakfast for his twin flame.Clearly something had been wrong. He wondered if the man had had a nightmare.It sure seemed like it.The arms around him had tightened to the point it had been getting painful and it had woke him up. It had taken a few times at saying his name to get a reaction and Aianfelt an awful, painful twisting in his chest.When he finally spoke loud enough to wrench the man back to earth, Kalvin seemed to struggle to come back to the present.Aianfrowned. He hadn’t liked the expression on the man’s face.Kalvin was a man who rarely showed his emotions yet he stared back at Aianwith wide gray eyesand face drained white. It was such a stark con

Kalvin’s eyebrows shot up to his hairline and Aian felt his face burn in embarrassment almost at once. “Or not. I mean, if you don’t want to.” “Oh no, since you offered such an intriguing solution, I would love to take you up on the offer,” the older man’s face settled into a very familiar smirk. “But who’s the pervert now, hmm, angel?” Aiangroaned and covered his face with his good arm. His face was still getting redderthat he could feel the burning heat intensifying. “It’s your fault. You made me like this.” Kalvinlaughed at that. “Oh no, I merely brought out your inner desires. But I don’t see why you are getting so embarrassed over this. This is no worse than anything else we have done and YOU were the one to suggest it. I’m not about to laugh at you for your fantasies. I honestly doubt there is anything you would suggest that I wouldn’t do. We are quite matched in that regard.” Aianremoved his arm and stared at Kal

Aianwas ecstatic to be back at the penthouse. Kalvinwould still be around a lot, choosing to spend more time working from home for a few weeks and his security team would be around more to help out physically as well. He was still stuck being wheelchaired around for the next few weeks but at least he wasn’t stuck in a hospital bed. Kalvinwas wheeling him past one of the the spare room when he noticed something familiar through the door from the corner of his eye. “Wait. Hold up, what’s in that room now?” Kalvinstopped in place but didn’t respond. Aiancraned his head around to stare up at his twin flameonly to be met with a blank face. Highly suspicious. “Kal, what’s in that room?” Still no answer. “Wheel me back.” The man seemed to weigh up his options before reluctantly pulling him back so they were beside the door after he asked a second time.

Red String Of Fate Chapter 66 - Connection
Having been in the hospital for a full seven days, Aianwas itching to leave. Kalvinhad wheeled him outside a few times so he could bask in the fresh air and sunshine but honestly,Aianwanted to go home. It didn’t help that Chadhad been released into Otto’s care yesterday morning, leaving only the three of them in the ward together. Aianwas rightthat sharing the room was so much better than being by himself, though. They had a constant stream of visitors from the security team, both to visit them and to guard the room. He had also met some of Caleb’s and Shawn’s family members, all of whom were surprised to find out who Aianwas. Now he was caught up on all the movies and shows he wanted to watch and had even learneda few new card games as well. But he wassoready to go home.

“Hello, Nettie.” “Is that how you greet an old friend, hmm?” she sat down on the chair beside her basket. “Honestly, you haven’t been over to visit for a drink and a chat in ages. I was giving you time to settle down with your little twin flamehaving all your attention but I swear, if he wasn’t your twin flame, he would be your midlife crisis.” “I’m not that old,” Kalvinhuffed out and Aianlooked torn between finding it funny and embarrassing. “If I didn’t know any better, I would dispute that. But it’s not about age, it’s about life experience. I’m not saying it’s a bad thing. Hell, I would be behind this relationship all the way,twin flamestatus or not,if it means youget toactually relax and we get to see that you’re a human with feelings. Honestly, I could do with a cute little midlife crisis myself.” She gave a selfdepreciating laugh. “I swear I may as well be married to my restaurant! But you n

Calebstretched. Or at least tried to. He winced as the dull ache sharpened through his body as he moved. His right hand and wrist were encased in a cast and his shoulder was braced as well as possible to stop him from tearing open the bullet wound. The rest of his body ached as though he had been hit by a car, although the force of him hitting the ground wasn’t too far off being the same. He had to admit he was grateful for the Ecliprises-sponsored hospital treatment. Private ward and a room shared just with him and the other two injured guards. On top of that, he had a bed that was actually comfortable and a regular food that was decent. He also had a constant stream of visitors to keep him occupied, his mother with different siblings accompanying her each time and all the security team members had dropped in to say hello and keep them all company. He was surprised when a nurse came in and set up the unmade fourth bed afte
Red String Of Fate Chapter 63 - Stuck
It had been a few days of bleary waking hours and constant naps but Aianwas finally perking up. Unfortunately,with his wakefulness came boredom. He was stuck mostly unable to move and often alone. He thought maybe he could play games on his handheld gaming device but thatalsorequired his left hand. As did trying to hold and navigate on his phone. He had been left with some books but holding them up while trying to turn the pages was awkward and reading on his phone wasn’t much better. He had his headphones on and listened to music but the energetic beat just reinforced how much he wanted to move. And how much he can’t. The worst part was that he could feel The Tug. He had never felt it before but he knew that’s what it was. It was faint, a slight tugging for him to get up and move in a certain direction. He checked on the map on his phone earlier and realizedthat it pointed to Ecliprises. H

Kalvinthanked Blakeas the man handed over a takeaway cup of coffee. He wasn’t sure how many hours he had been sitting in the hospital waiting room but a glance outside the windows showed a faint grey tint to the sky. Morning was on its way. He watched as his secretary handed out cups to the other occupants of the waiting room. Dalesat on his right and Glyniss, Aian’s mom, face pale and drawn, was on his left. A few chairs down sat Caleb’s mother and one of his younger sisters, beside them sat Shawn’s father. Chad’s emergency contact had turned out to be a friend that advised they would pass on a message to his family but had told Blakethat they most likely wouldn’t come, even if he died. Kalvinwasn’t one to pry into the private lives of his subordinates but he found something sad in such a capable and loyal young man being so estranged from his family. Some of themembers of Team Creeshiaalso sat around the roo

Agony pulled him back into awareness and Aiangroggily raised his head to look around. Neviseemed content to let him regain his bearings as he crouched in front of him with a knifeglinting in the light of the room. His eyes zeroed in on the gleaming blade and the insane man chuckled at his reaction. “I told youthat you owe me some fun for making me wait. I’m glad that you are able to stay awake for this. Its far more entertaining this way.” Nevi brought up the knife and set it against Aian’s freckled cheek. He flinched at the feeling of the cold blade digging into his skin but otherwise didn’t move. Closing his eyes, Aianbit the inside of his lip as the blade was pushed in further and dragged across his skin, slicing it open. It wasn’t a deep cut, but enough that he could feel the warm wetness of his own blood oozing out and trailing down his face. The knife was pulled away from his cheek an

The rest of the trip to wherever they were going was quiet. Neviseemed lost in his own thoughts so Aianused the time to gauge his injuries. His right arm was handcuffed to the seatbelt and other than some tenderness, it appeared to be okay. His left arm wasn’t so fortunate, though. It was clearly broken, part of his arm hanging limp at an unnatural angle. The break was in his forearm, a bit before his elbow. He must have landed on that arm during his fall. It hurt like hell. The pain radiated out from the break and seemed to crawl up his arm. Every bump in the road speared new pain through him in an agonizingjolt that had his eyes watering and he bit his lip to stop from crying outloud. Not the time to be a wuss about things now. Aianwas dizzy and could barely feel the rest of his body. He wondered if he had hit his head during the fall too. He must have, surely. Especially considering he blacked out
