Arkael’s heart leaped for a reason he couldn't quite place when Zadkiel's words reached him.Perhaps it was a surge of relief that this newly rediscovered childhood brother seemed to embrace a brighter outlook than his own. A fierce protectiveness welled within him. He would move heaven and earth to shield him from the corrupting influence of malicious individuals. He had grown accustomed to navigating such darkness, but Zadkiel? The thought of him being tainted was unbearable.If only recognition had dawned on him sooner, everything would have unfolded with such ease. He would have been a constant presence in Zadkiel's life, ready to fulfill his every need and desire. He would have stayed by his side to accompany him wherever he wished. Was it truly that simple, to simply cater to his whims?Arkael closed his eyes as he drew in several deep and steadying breaths. He had momentarily lost himself in the past. He almost forgot the chasm of time that separated them from their innocent chi
Arkael’s grip tightened on Zadkiel’s wrist like a silent vow to unearth every buried concern that troubled his childhood brother. Now that he had found him again, he would never let him slip away. The innocent child he once knew had vanished. He was replaced by a man, but the bond, Arkael hoped, remained.“Let go of me…” Zadkiel’s voice held a tremor like an inexplicable shiver tracing icy paths down his spine, and it prickled his every nerve ending. The unexpected touch sent a wave of disquiet through him. He glared at Arkael with a silent warning flickering in his eyes: persist, and you’ll regret it.But Arkael was unyielding. His resolve was as steadfast as ever. He held firm, stubbornly waiting for the dam of Zadkiel’s unspoken thoughts to finally break. Had Zadkiel’s lost memories not obscured the past, he would have recognized this very tenacity like a hallmark of their first encounter.“Who are you?” Zadkiel’s question cut through the tense silence. It was born of the unsettling
Upon closing the door, Zadkiel leaned his back against the cold wall closing his eyes. He was feeling his deep sadness seeping down his entire body. It was the wine's fault that made him felt that way. He wasn't supposed to feel it but the feeling of being left alone was driving him to think of his childhood past. Was his brother feeling the same way as him? Why did he leave him, anyway? These were the questions that kept on bugging him through the years since he discovered the recordings. What the hell happened to him back then? Shall he start to ask his mother about his forgotten past? Closing his eyes was indeed a bit relaxing, his tears that threatens to fall from the corners of his eyes vanished. Another deep breath! Yes! He kept on inhaling the
Arkael was glaring at Zadkiel murderously. He had been worrying his fucking ass out while thinking of the man's emotional streak but he didn't expect that what he saw would turn him livid and mad. What would happen to them if he hadn't arrived his ass at the right time? The thought of Zadkiel being kissed by Xander made his blood boiling. But why? This was the very first time that he felt this way. What was this feeling called?"Stop glaring at me like I've done something unforgivable. It sucks!" Zadkiel straightened himself and took his steps forward. He wanted to leave the club and go back to his hiding territory. There, he could find the solace that he needed the most. He could mend and heal his invisible wounds. Eventually, he could gather himself again and stand on his arrogant feet again!&nb
Zadkiel wasn't able to respond to Arkael’s abrupt inquiry. He was frozen on his seat, mentally blocked!Why is that? He was drowning and struggling to come out from his dreamy state. His body temperature had risen abnormally. His manhood twitched and it had grown into semi-erect under his fabrics. ‘Shit! Now, we're in big trouble!’ his mind shouted. “Hey... Zad, are you okay?” Arkael couldn’t help but evoke a seductive smirk when he talked towards his childhood brother.“Huh?” Zadkiel was successfully taken back to reality by Arkael’s unending inquiries. He looked like he was in an utter complete mess. He was too distracted!
Zadkiel, after giving his apartment’s address to the culprit of his terrible headaches finally slumped down on his seat after making a few adjustments according to his preferred comfortable position. As the dizziness hit and darkness engulfed him, his mind wandered off far away. He was dreaming of his childhood brother — Arky. His dream was all starkly black, he couldn’t see anything. He tried to gaze around hoping to find some light to get rid of the darkness but he couldn’t find any. “Call me Arky...” a young boy’s voice ranged to his ears. He looked around but still, he couldn’t see the boy’s little face. Darkness was all over the place. He was confused why he couldn’t see anything
“Axel...” Arkael mumbled softly while taking his time caressing Zadkiel’s short hair with his fingers gently. How long had it been since he got a hold of the guy’s short hair? 17 years? Does anyone had gotten that privilege away from him now?A lot of things had happened to him during his journey from childhood to adulthood, what about him? Did Zadkiel found and meet a lot of friends too during those years? He was interested to know how did he cope up without seeing him for that long.“Arky...” Zadkiel kept on mumbling his pet name dreamily. He was shifting on his seat, all looking uncomfortable now and then. “Axel...” Arkael tapped Zadkiel’s shoulder again to wake him up. He didn’t want to interru
Arkael was just planning on easing his throbbing temple for just a couple of minutes before leaving but when he closed his eyes, he drifted back to his childhood when he was still an eight-year-old kid. The day that his life had started to turn into a living hell! “Huhuhu...” his mother, Merida was crying her eyes out after the appearance of the unknown man. The man who owned the truck that was parked outside their driveway earlier. The one that he had happened to hear telling Merida something about some certain like ‘She was declared as dead on arrival.’ words. That was the only set of words registered on his young mind as his rumbling tummy interrupted his eavesdropping from the s
A year later...“Ahhh!” A woman’s painful whine ranged on Kael and Kiel’s ears.“Axe... Take it easy, she will be fine and so as our babies...” Kael patted his lover’s shoulder gently to comfort him.“My love, what if the babies couldn't make it? Godddd! I can't bear to lose them!” Kiel grumbled shakily. He was pacing back and forth anxiously outside the delivery room. After their marriage, their parents give them both a task to fulfill before going back to their country and take over the company. They are required to find someone to give birth to their babies. They were both billionaires
“Merah! Watch out!” BANG! BANG! BANG! “Ahhh!” THUD! Loud gunshots ranged simultaneously on the parking lot. The surroundings seemed to froze and everyone around the premises seemed to halt in their motions. Some were hiding and the others forgot to find themselves a little place to cover, they just stood there frozen in shock. The atmosphere turned eeriely silent. Allen was extremely petrified and carelessly jumpe
"I'll deal with her!""Got it, Sr. Officer!""Clear the crowd. I want the clearest angle at ten o'clock." Amira commanded dominantly while roaming her sharp eyes around the premises.Zack was then turned speechless. He went thoroughly dumbfounded. ‘She’s a Sr. Officer? Why didn't I know that?’ he thought."Got it!" Hoop affirmatively agreed without hesitation.A few minutes later...A fully armed man in a black combat outfit appeared on Amira's side. He hand her a fully loaded automatic rifle on which she accepted right in front of her ex-husb
Meanwhile...Merah was feeling extremely uneasy. Her guts told her that there must be something big happening behind her back. Her heart thudded loudly beneath her chest. Her stomach couldn't help churning. She felt edgy that she kept on pacing back and forth in their living room. Allen’s call gives her the odd feeling that he must be up to something. Something dangerous!“Merah, listen to me my love... don’t come here to my office today, do you understand? I have an important work with Zack that needs to be focused...” Allen informed her seriously.“What work was that? You didn’t tell me about that matter these days. Are you hiding something from me, Ace?” Merah a
“Eugene!” A furious voice ranged on the two men’s ears making the other one rattle in his current position.Merida adjusted her cloak leisurely and showed her haggard face. Her stare makes Eugene tremble all over in fear. He broke into a cold sweat as he shifted on his seat looking too flustered.“Relax, don't be scared,” Kenneth whispered and squeezed Eugene’s hand giving him enough courage to carry over his task. “Madam you're here...” Eugene stood up from his seat and bowed slightly greeting the woman trying to get himself calm than ever. His feet trembled immensely.“Where is your boss?” Merida inquired and eyed Kenneth from hea
“Okay... Tell me the details of where she could possibly go at this moment.” Hoop demanded waiting patiently on the other end of the line for Kael's information.“I think she’s going to my office. The AMC hotel headquarters.” Kael stated as he thought about it carefully. He was a hundred so sure that it would happen. No doubt about it.Merida hated his guts so much ever since. Then perhaps she would go directly on his office and kill him on the spot! She was kidnapped and because of that incident her anger tripled and she was now desperate to avenge herself! How irrational of her!“Alright! I’ll put your office under surveillance right away. Please notify your employees about it Mr. Casimiro. Everything should be cle
“Sir, please move a little. We need to do some follow-up checks ups on him...”Zadkiel’s attending physician barged in without further ado with his nurses trailing behind him. Though he caught sight of the two men’s intimate movements he ignored it and proceeded to do his job. He was a professional doctor with professional ethics thus he didn't need to mind their own businesses.Zad rolled his eyes in annoyance. His lips pouted seemingly displeased with his doctor’s sudden intrusion. He gazed at his lover and give out a slight nod of his head like he was telling him a silent ‘let’s carry-on-later!’ look.Kael throw a playful wink back to Zad and wore a faint smile on his lips. He silently moved sideways giving
“Kael Casimiro?” Amira nodded her head vigorously while yawning. “Zack, I really want to sleep, sweetheart...” she whined hopping on her car. She clasped her belts and leaned her head lazily. “I’ll take you home then...” Zack went to the driver's seat, started the car, and drove away. He felt at ease after knowing that Allen’s brat was now taking over to take care of their son. He was gratified for that! He was just hoping that the latter could wake him up in no time! He was greatly worried as the days started to count with Zad responding to them! Meanwhile at the hospital... Kael slowly walked towards Kiel’s bed and took a seat on the chair where Amira had been seated earlier. He was
“He has also undergone brain surgery,” Allen murmured lowly staring at his son. “Dad... Ho-how did that happen to him?” Kael muttered in shock. His eyes widened like saucers while staring at his father. His heart tightened and his nerves clenched painfully. “It was an accident, Kael. He bumped into his minibar counter while he was drunk.” Allen muttered with honesty. “Whe-when was that?” Kael couldn't calm himself anymore and he stood up from his seat. He keeps on pacing back and forth in front of his father looking restless. He was so worried about him! He was freaking out! “The day after you left him...” Allen muttered and narrated the story according to Zack Snyder’s story.
