Adler’s apartment was quiet except for the soft hum of air conditioning. Braylon was fast asleep on the couch after being convinced by Adler and Eryx. It was a hard task for Adler and Eryx to convince Braylon to sleep since he wanted to go to search for Alan. Adler had convinced him to stay over for the night, reassuring him that it would be safer than being alone. As Braylon slept, Eryx was staying with Braylon to take care of him while Adler was on the phone with the technical team. His voice showed how much rage he was holding right now. If that kidnapper got caught, he would surely skin them alive. "I need you to trace the caller ID that contacted Braylon Rhys earlier," Adler instructed the team. "It's urgent," Adler told them Braylon's number to trace. After getting orders from the chief, the technical person hung up on him. "Guys... We have an issue. Need to track the Caller ID," That guy shouted, getting the attention of everyone. Alex, being the one responsible for issuing
"I am coming with you two," "No... you aren't going anywhere," Eryx sternly said, refusing Braylon's request. "He is my son. I'll come with you two. If you two refuse me, I don't hesitate to kill myself," okay, this was the underrated threatening from Braylon, but what they didn't expect was his hands were holding a knife. Eryx and Adler exchanged a worried glance, their faces tight with concern. Eryx stepped forward, his voice low but firm.“Braylon, I know how much this means to you, but it’s too dangerous. You need to stay safe. He is my son as well. Don't do anything stupid.”Braylon’s eyes flashed with anger. “I’m not staying behind while my son is out there. I’m coming with you, whether you like it or not.”Adler sighed heavily, running a hand through his hair. “We can’t protect you and search for Alan at the same time. You’ll slow us down.”“I won’t be a burden,” Braylon snapped. “I’m a trained detective, remember? I can handle myself.”Eryx glanced at Adler, seeing the defea
It was like a strong storm finished in their life. Braylon almost lost his sanity, when Alan was kidnapped. It had been two weeks, and everything had happened. Alan was coming out of the trauma slowly, Eryx often came home to cheer up his son. He wasn't going to school, not yet. "He must be tired. But he is strong, don't worry." Eryx squeezed Braylon's shoulder, pulling him close to Eryx. Braylon just hummed in response; eyes gazing at the sleeping figure of Alan softly. "Sister Zaneta came home to invite us to her wedding, but Alan didn't talk to her and ran into his room. She was suspicious about it, but I managed to lie to her." Braylon's eyes brimmed with tears, chest congested with a feeling of agony. "It's okay, he needs some time." Braylon nodded. "Alex and others came home but left just before you came. Alan seemed quite active today." "He will get out of this trauma soon. He is just a kid and it was too much for him. Just believe him." Braylon inclined his head in agreem
Braylon's Pov!The sun was setting behind the city buildings. I stood by the window, my heart pounding with a secret I could no longer keep. I had planned this for weeks, hoping everything would go perfectly. I slipped out unnoticed, everyone too absorbed with the happy couple to notice my absence.As I approached the spot I had chosen, a secluded garden just a few minutes away, I quickened my pace. It was beautiful, exactly how I ordered the arrangements: fairy lights draped over the trees, a cosy setup with cushions and blankets, and a small table adorned with candles. It was warm and magical.My phone buzzed, pulling me from my thoughts. A message from Eryx: "Where are you? Everyone’s looking for you." I didn't reply, they might have already guessed where I was. I just wanted to wait for them to reach here. After twenty minutes, I heard the familiar voices of my friends. They had found me. Eryx rushed to me, wrapping me in a tight hug. "I was so scared when I couldn't find you," h
“Guys, It's been a while since we spent our time together. why don't we go out tonight and stay in a hotel if it gets late”, Alex Scurtis walks towards the car, which belongs to Eryx, the almighty young master of the Silvester.“It's a great idea. Isn't it”, His amused tone makes Eryx irritated.He smiles at Braylon who is sitting next to him silently, squeezing his hands nervously.He tries hard to tell something to Eryx all the time but always ends up staying silent. It's been one week since they finished their Degree exam for forensic criminology.They have all been friends for three years.“Count me in babies”Revilla jumped suddenly, and Alex almost scared the hell out. The young criminals who study criminology, Don't know how many hearts they are going to steal.A gust of wind blows and makes the atmosphere more lively.“Get in the car guys, Today it's our day to enjoy”, Eryx invited them.Eryx was at the peak of enjoyment. He didn't know how to describe the happiness he was fee
Braylon takes him to the room, he is too heavy to handle. He struggles to open the door of the room balancing a giant pig in his embrace. Soon the door opens, Eryx closes the door and slams Braylon against the door. He whined in pain.“Eryx, what the hell man. It's hurt”, He shouted at him but was interrupted by his gloomy emotionless face. Teardrops find a way out of Eryx's eyes.“Eryx. Are you ok? Wh... Why are you crying”, The words of him were cracked.“Why do you have to leave the city, just stay with me Braylon. To be frank, I can not live without you”, He is crying like a baby in front of him.He can't see Eryx like that. Braylon caresses his cheeks gently. His eyes filled with love only. He now showing his true feelings in front of him.“Eryx, I don't want to regret anything, you may forget after you wake up the next morning but at least I won't regret so let me let you one thing...”, Braylon's heart is beating against his rib cage.“I like you Eryx, Not you as a friend but a
After dropping Alex and Revilla at their home, Eryx went to Braylon's home.“Braylon, where the hell is you man?”, He shouted while entering the hall. Everyone is looking at him weirdly.“Eryx. What happened”, Mrs Rhys comes out of the kitchen holding veggies in her hand.“Where is Braylon, Aunt? He didn't inform me when he left the hotel. I was worried that's why I came to check on him”, He tried his best to control his temper in front of Mrs. Rhys. Mrs. Rhys's face changed instantly.“Doesn't he tell you about his flight time? He left one hour ago Eryx, now he would be already in flight and the take-off time is 10 minutes ago”, Mrs Rhys tried to explain.She was also in shock because Braylon won't hide anything from Eryx. Apart from his parents, he is only close to their friends. No one can understand well other than Eryx but now he hides about his education abroad.Not hiding, Eryx was the one who didn't hear him out. Eryx clenched his fist.“Is everything normal Eryx? He won't hid
AFTER FOUR YEARSBraylon gets off of the aeroplane while holding the little kid in his arms. He is waiting to check out. Someone is urging him to take the luggage.“Braylon... Why are you slow like a snail? When are you going to take our luggage.”, Zaneta shouts as Braylon glares at her. He isn't like a college student. In these three years, he changed a lot. Masculine body, sharp eyes, and a charming smile wearing a suit with a professional look on him.“If you want to take luggage, then come and take it. Don't urge me, okay? I am holding Alan. How can I take luggage.”, Braylon rolls his eyes. Alan is gorgeous, with Obsidian black hair, green Hazel eyes, and heavy eyelids, and Braylon is the classic doting dad. He inherited Braylon's gene.Braylon is a nonbinary person. Until he got pregnant with Alan, he didn't know about his gender. At first, he was shocked because of pregnancy.It’s going to be called something sensitive and it ends up being called something like Trapped Bodies Ge
