Chapter 5

Sebastian’s point of view

Donna and I talked throughout my ride home. She’s my friend, worked with me for four years before I trusted her enough to become my friend.

She doesn’t really know what happened between me and Ryan, but she knew more than the media.

I decided to spend the night at my penthouse since it was near.

I got there and went straight to the shower. My mind stilled and calm off the rustle it has been since I left the party when the cold shower slapped on my skin.

This was not the future I planned for myself and Ryan or saw for us, we were suppose to be best friends forever. Why did he have to betray me? Why did he have to make us become enemies?

We’re suppose to be at the top together.

Because now, the only thing on my mind that I deeply craved for was now Ryan’s downfall. The end to his reign. The doom to his legacy.

And I’ll be damned if I do not get that. Ryan has stolen a lot from me, and done a lot to me in return for the platonic love I gave him and had for him.

Now there are going to be articles of me being indeed jealous of Ryan, and in beef with him due to my envy. They would also see Ryan as an angel and love him more, meanwhile I’ll get criticized for being envious and full of hate.

While none of them had any idea of what’s the actual story.

I spent close to an hour inside the bathroom before I stepped out, I was still wet and wrapped in towel when the landline beside my bed vibrated and rang up.

I went over and picked the call. “What do you have to tell me in the middle of the night?” I questioned my receptionist rudely.

“That one of your business partner is here to see you. Should I let him in?”

My face nudged into confusion, “Business partner who?”

“Mister Xavier Rodriguez. He also seems drunk. Should I let him in or lead him to a guest room?” The receptionist enlightened further.

“Yeah let him come up here. We still have business to discuss, must be why he came here. Tho I wonder how he got my address.” I ended the call afterwards.

So Xavier decided to visit me just the night I decided to spent my night here in this penthouse because I wasn’t feeling the vibe to drive home.

The penthouse is the home address I gave everyone, all including my friends, associates, and the media outlets. Whereas that wasn’t my main home address, just a place I randomly sleeps in and stay at.

It’s his lucky night for sure.

I haven’t gotten the privilege to throw on some clothes when I heard my door pushed open. I should probably go tell him hello, and that I’ll be with him shortly after I’ve put some clothes on.

I got to the living room and found Xavier sprawled on my couch. “Ugh I’m tired!” He groaned.

“But you came here to discuss business didn’t you?”

Xavier rose up at the heard of my voice as his head tilted back to look at me. “Damn!” He mouthed in admiration as his gaze licked at my thirsty sight.

“Okay tell me why the fuck you’re shirtless and all wet, instead of clothed and dry. Cause dude, you did not have to look this tasty!” Xavier’s eyes purred with lust as he raved at me.

I had to look at myself. My towel hung barely below my waist, down enough to expose the v-line of my torso that ran up to my toned Roman abs.

I wasn’t the gym type, but still manage to attain a fit athletic body because of my healthy lifestyle. My chest was broad and hairless, and my arms were neither small nor huge. None of this fit the attractive stereotype on my opinion.

But watching his obvious admiration for me, I cringed at his words. “What do you mean by that?” I wanted to act oblivious to his obvious esteem for my beauty. Perhaps he’s just appreciating and nothing else, I shouldn’t see more into it.

“There are drinks in the fridge, treat yourself to a wine or whatever. I’ll be back,” I told him as I excused myself to go dress up.

I’ve never thought myself to be someone attractive, in fact I’m always weird out when people fancied my appearance or got attracted to my features. I last gave a fuck about my looks when I was still in school, then I knew I was good looking because a lot of girls wanted to be my girlfriend then.

Not just home alone, it was the same with Ryan. We were even deemed the most handsome teens in our high school.

Over the years, I’ve grown out of the concept. Now when ladies hit on me, I either act clueless or express my disgust.

People often thought I’m heartbroken or asexual, but I’m in fact very sexually active. I have a lot of girls to call when I’m horny and need to get off, albeit I’m rarely horny and just do it as a form of therapy.

When I returned to the sitting room, Xavier was already done with two bottles of wine. He was a messy sight to behold. Okay this dude is beyond crazyyy.

“Look who decided to join the party!” His slurred voice muttered attentively at me.

I was no longer sure this guy came down for business. I thought perhaps he was leaving early for Spain tomorrow so decided to finalize our partnership this night before he leaves. The rubbish he’s doing right now was not part of it.

“What are you even doing here?” I couldn’t hide my disgust any longer. I hate it when people make mess of my well organized space, now I could spot wine stains all over my couch and on the floor.

“I could have gone to my hotel, but instead came here to see if I can help fix whatever happened between you and Ryan. Then I saw you in that towel looking all hot and sexy as fuck, and whew!” He paused to fan himself. “So I think Ryan can suck it because now I want you all to myself and for myself then I’m think about him.” He stood up, his steps unsteady as he close the distance between him and me.

“Yeah sorry but I’m not homosexual or bisexual,”

“Who you are doesn’t matter to me. I saw you, I saw how you were when Ryan kissed you. You kind of liked it, so tell me exactly how you’re sure you are not bisexual or homo.”

“You need to sleep, Xavier. I’ll get the house manager to get you settled in a guest room.”

Xavier threw away the empty wine glass he had with him carelessly as he pushed himself into my body. “Gosh you smell so good!” He moaned before he looked up and locked lips with me.

What the fuck is with dudes and kissing me today!!!!!

    Chapter 6 Ryan’s point of view “What’s this?” Mother nearly shoved her phone into my face as I walked through the door. “Ryan what’s this?” The screen flashed harsher into my eyes. I squinted at the headline displayed in my view, it spoke about my scandalous pull from The Governor’s birthday party. Titled “The Damned Kiss”. Wait when was this? An hour or two ago and it has been published wide enough for my mom to get it. The world can be really jobless at times. “It is what it is.” I shrugged and responded, pushing through where she has me cornered as I strolled further into the mansion. Vivian, my sister was right by the stairs, a mischievous smirk on her face as I approached her. Of course. This must be her dirty work. I mean I should have predicted even, since when does mom surf the internet enough for her to know the hottest talk of the city. I got to her presence, casted a long look of shame, then shook my head and walk off. “Did he just walk out on me?

    Chapter 7Sebastian’s point of view Getting through the night was as hectic as I presumed it would be when I let myself sheltered a drunk guest. Sure he was drunk before he came over, but my treat added to the mood. I’d offer him the luxury of my fridge, where he sampled into his guts my alcoholic beverages and wine. I had to tuck Xavier into one of my guest rooms later after he’s made a mess of my living room with his puke. As disgusted as it made me, I tried not to react offensively at the kiss. He was drunk and wasn’t in control of himself, besides it was just a kiss. Bleh! Though if he had kept making attempts, I sure would’ve honored the thought of throwing him out in the middle of the night. Dawn came sooner than expected, and I found myself operating on a brief hours of sleep.When I checked up on Xavier, he was still deep in his slumber while I was already dressed up to start the day. It’s 7am already, when does he wake up? I left the house with a message from me through

    Chapter 8Ryan’s point of view “How did it go?” Donna, Seb’s secretary who helped sectioned the meetup between Seb and I asked as she saw me stormed out of his office with his men hovering right behind me. I gave her a knowing look as I glanced at the guards Seb had instructed to escort me outside. She sighed when she got the memo, “He can be a real pain in the ass with his stubbornness sometimes, let me just help you deal with him. I might be able to get him to his senses,”I didn’t respond to her, I just went into the elevator and when the guards tried to follow me in I gave them a cold glare that slit a pause to their motion. I can’t believe he would chase me out. Seriously how stubborn did he have to be? For me to sneak into your office just so I can talk and explain things to you, shouldn’t that tell him how genuine I was? Instead he chose to believe I was there to manipulate him. I scoffed out aloud, manipulate him for what? Why would I come to lie to him now? What could

    Chapter 9Sebastian’s point of view “Unless you’re ready to tell me exactly how Ryan was able to sneak into my office and ruin my day, then quit bugging me!” I snapped at the intercom that connects me to my secretary, closing Donna’s another attempt to talk to me. She already tried barging in, and was sent outside with the threat that I might stop joking around with the thought of sacking her and act on it if she doesn’t leave me alone. Barely a second later, my door pushed open without my permission. Annoyance flayed over my face as I trailed gaze up at the entrance to see it was Donna, “You better be ready to talk,” I chided. She stepped aside for someone she was with to come inside, the person being Xavier. Oh, so he’s here. Must be why Donna kept bugging me with beeps. “Mister Xavier, I-““Thought we were past the formalities now? Or did I not woke up in your house?” He cut into my sentence. I glanced at Donna who raised her brows at the heard of Xavier’s words. “It’s not

    Chapter 10Ryan’s point of view I was already late when I arrived at NT’s venue for the interview they’ve scheduled with me to air on their channel. There was no time to prep for the show so I was instantly ushered into the shooting room as soon as I came in. I was told to wait for the host to announce my arrival and invite me to stage. It was then I looked over to the stage, and shot a small smirk at who I found seated already with the said host. I waved and beckoned at the manager who was close to me, “Wasn’t I told this would be a solo interview?” I queried when he got close enough. “Well yeah, but we made a last minute decision to sit you both to get a wider audience. Both your supporters and his would be tuning in to hear what you both have to say.” The wired intercom he has plugged in his ear beeped as he pressed on it. “Hey, yeah he’s ready.” He looked up at me, “You’re going in,” he told me and then quickly walked away and towards his crew.

    Chapter 11 Sebastian’s point of view Awe took hold of my face, my expression, my sense of self, basically all of me. Courtesy of his sudden confession, words that influenced my current state of awestruck. What does he mean by that?…. ‘Seb I was in love with you. I was and still am…’ the words replay over and over again in my head, in a blissful echo that sounded peaceful rather than dangerous. He closed the small gap that separated us, then made to cup my cheek when I ducked out of his reach and step away from him to the right side of the elevator wall. His brows creased in haze. I scoffed. I know this wasn’t the reaction he expected from me after my little showcase at his confession. However, who does he think he’s dealing with? A ten year old who’s never been out in the world? Cause that’s the kind of person he can trick successfully and fool with his words. “You really expect me to melt at the heard of that didn’t you?” I asked, as another scoff fell through. “Gosh look at

    Chapter 12 Ryan’s point of view It seems unbelievable, totally surreal that Seb would think that my confession is a lie. That he would think my love for him is a plot to achieve his downfall. Meanwhile it was the beautiful feelings I developed for him that stirred this shit up in the first place. Perhaps if I hadn’t written a letter for my father to find, maybe- just maybe this wouldn’t be our fate at the moment. Or if I hadn’t fallen in love with my best friend. When I finally escaped my father and met with my true family, I’d thought all will be well and that I’ll be reunited with my best friend once again. However, once they learnt of my non platonic affections for him through my deranged foster father. They instantly kicked against the idea and forbade the decision. They actively fought against the sick part of me that was also in love with my best friend. They call it sick and demented, that it wasn’t right and an abomination. Mom in particular was the pin on

    Chapter 13 Sebastian’s point of view The environment was as greenish as I remembered, calm and the seething epitome of serenity. It was indeed the perfect place for her. I coursed through the passage that led to her assigned ward, my gaze locked on the picture hidden inside the locket hung to my necklace. I don’t wear the necklace often, but I keep it with me at all times. I usually bring it out whenever I’m visiting, because it’s the one object that reminds her of me. I arrived at the room, and opened the door to her seated comfortably on her rocking chair, carefully knitting on what seems like a sweater and humming a delicate sound along. “Nana,” I called out softly for her attention. She looked up at me at the heard of my voice, confusion on her face as she sized me up and down. “Who are you, gentleman?”I snickered at her question as I walked over to her, bringing the locket I had with me into display. “I’m this guy,” I showed her the picture tucked away inside the locket.

She was diagnosed with a stage four brain tumor that has her death inevitable, it was at that moment she chose to spare the truth and rid the lie I grew up with regarding the story of my father. She never made him the villain in my eyes, albeit that’s who he was. My mom told him he never died, and that they divorced after she caught him cheating on her the fifth time in their six months marriage. She realized he can’t changed, and she can’t spend the rest of her life with him like she intended even though she was pregnant of me at that time. She divorced him, left his home, and never told him about her pregnancy. That was how they separated, and she made sure he could never reach her again, no matter how hard he tries.

But still, there’s this slight panic in me that he could release all those footages of me online right now and there’d be nothing I’d do against me, he’d have me exposed and put my past in public. No one would try to understand me, all they’ll see is a monster, a villain, a man who doesn’t deserve their ears or understanding.

    Chapter 26 Ryan’s point of view Today wasn’t supposed to go like this. No, not at all. The thought was I’d wake up, go to work, get myself married in a private court, and finish the day with a visit to Seb. Now tell me why it’s not even moon yet and the day has already spiraled out from what I had in mind. Few seconds ago my secretary stormed in with worry written all over her face as she stretched her phone out to me in anxiousness. I took it, confused until I checked out the article displayed on her screen. The Headline boldly stated ‘Once Again, The Art Of Enemies To Lovers Has Proven Itself Solid.’ Sub heading also read that, ‘Billionaire CEO Sebastian Torres private desires for Billionaire Heir, Ryan McCall Growan.’ Below was attached a footage of where I had Seb caged to a car and my face was nearly smashing into his. It was an intimate scene to look at, and I don’t need to read through all the written paragraphs to derive the message conveyed in that article. “Fuck!” I

    Chapter 25 Sebastian’s point of view Donna and I arrived at the office in the morning, but she had to go away with the excuse of changing her outfit. I was now left in care of my new secretary, Ryan’s sister and it looks like Donna hasn’t shared with her the rules around here. She knocked on my door and brought a coffee for me. Number one, I do not take coffees anywhere or any types so long as it’s not prepared by myself. Number two which is really very important is, unless I’m unreachable and urgently needs to be reached, you’re not allowed to knock on my door or disturb me, instead make use of the landline attached to your desk. I’m sure Donna didn’t tell her all of this because she wanted her to get on my nerves. “You’re not allowed to knock on my door unless you’ve tried to reach me through the landline provided at your desk multiple times and I was unreachable, only then should you come to my office and knock on my door. I hate disturbance,” I began to address her. “If I tak

She was lighted on the stage, drunk as she twirled around to give one of the sexiest shows ever for both the male and female gazes of those present and showered her their attention. I rushed to get her down when she was done and aided her stance as we walked out of the bar, people kept applauding her and whistling at her as she leaned on me and blow out kisses. I finally got her settled in the car as well as worked the belt around her before I went to take my place behind the wheels. “Gosh tonight was so fun, I’ve never had a night like this in my life. We should do this once again,” she beamed where she was sat with joy all over her face and body. I smirked at her and zoomed our car into motion. “You got drunk and you think it’s fun?” I shook my head and laughed at her. “Who told you I’m drunk? I’m so not drunk, I just feel

What the fuck is it?” My annoyed tone queried Donna’s non-stop dig to blow my phone up with calls. “Do I have to lecture you on boundaries? When I snubbed your call the first, second, and third times you called. You should have gotten the hint that I do not want to either talk at the moment, or be on the phone with you of all people,” I criticized, pissed that she literally called me over thirty times and practically forced me to pick her next call so she would stop! That’s insane. “You kissed Ryan and ran away? I’m outside your door, come open up,” was what I got as a response to the words I just babbled. The fuck. “No! Absolutely no! Turn the fuck around and get off my porch, don’t get me more upset than I already am.
