When you don't understand the concept of money
Last Updated:

“Around five hundred billion,” Eden said thinking. “But that is just what we found. There may be more that we know nothing about.”
“Damn.” Noel typed out. “Well, doesn’t seem like there is anything we can do. How did you not notice that amount of money stolen? And by one of your men too.”
“I suppose I trusted him?” Eden said, shrugging. “But, if we don’t get your help on acquiring dirt on the man to force him into a truce, we may not be able to stop the war from breaking out.”
“I think I understand now.” Noel rested his head in his hands, thinking. “But … isn’t this kind of your guys' fault? For not checking up on the man you sent to take care of their money.&rdqu

“How ya doing?” Eden asked, beaming at Noel laying on his bed, groaning as the sheets scattered around him, barely covering his body filled with marks from his neck all the way down to his thighs.Noel turned to the man, his hair falling over his face, glaring at him.“I feel amazing,” Eden said, pushing some of the man’s hair out of his face. “Ready for another round?”“Are you trying to kill me?” Noel typed out, hissing in pain as he pushed him away. “Next time I am going to be on top.”“Noel? On top of me?” Eden mumbled, pulling out a packet of cigarettes and placed one in his mouth, letting it hang there as he thought.The black-haired man’s blue eyes glazed over as he stared him down, nothing but desire written all over his face, his tongue licking the corner of his lips before he comes down

“Ok, I’ll be there,” Eden said into the phone before keeping it. Without thinking, he began biting at his finger again, trying to make sense of what was happening.Noel stared at Eden, chewing at his finger for a couple of seconds before appearing into his view, “What’s wrong?”“Ah! Shit!” Eden almost jumped away seeing Noel appear like that suddenly. “You scared me!”“Sorry.” The man typed out, hair completely messy as it stuck out on all ends.“It’s fine. You didn’t do anything wrong.” Eden said, ruffling the man’s hair even more. “That shouldn’t have surprised me as much as it did.”“You seemed panicked.” Noel typed out, pushing down some hair sticking up. “Care to tell me?”“It seems that two people died in

“How did something like this happen?” Ages asked, looking over the two bodies piled on top of each other on the ground, blood scattered everywhere.“In the middle of the road too.” A woman in a police uniform said, walking to them. Her deep red hair was tied in a braid and hanging off her shoulder as she stared at the two on the ground, clicking her tongue.A number of police and people in casual clothing stood in the middle of the road, police lines littered all around the place to keep the people out as a small crowd formed around the area.“In the busiest street too,” Fern said watching as the men in uniform began to chase the people away, one by one. “They clearly want to send a message and make sure it gets delivered.”“Well, they did a good job at that.” The woman in uniform said, a scowl coming on her face. “Do we know who they

“Wait. What?” Eden asked, looking at Ages, his eyes widening.“What’s wrong?” Ages asked but Eden only held the phone up and placed it in loudspeaker.“Can you say that again, honey?” He asked and they heard shuffling in the background before the automated voice began again.“Am I in loudspeaker?”“Yes.”“Ok, listen carefully. The two girls are Mia and Alice. They go to Hotori High and are both sixteen years old, in the same class, eleven.“They are neighbours and childhood friends. Their families are very close so they practically grew up together. I have their parent’s names but I don’t think that will be too important at the moment.“Cutting to the chase, it seems like both their families are reported as missing as of this morning. The neigh

Sitting in the dark, Noel continued to type away at the laptop in front of him. The screen is split into three sections, one is in a direct conversation with an unknown person and the other two are tabs of a long list of people and records.A lollipop stuck out of Noel’s mouth as he tried to focus on the screen in front of him, instead, the flashes of the girls’ bodies just kept appearing in his mind.Sighing, he pushed the laptop onto the bed and ran his hands through his hair, frowning.Why do they always have to involve innocent children into things like this? He thought, messing his own hair up in frustration. This also seems more like a personal vendetta than someone actually wanting to send a message. They would have done this to someone else otherwise.First, I need to get a hold of that video. We may not be able to get the face of the perpetrator on the scree

“Anyone knows what that is?” Eden asked as everyone stared at the device on the table, looking at it with confusion written all over their faces. “No one? Then. Captain Quinn. Care to elaborate?”“Sir. This is known as an inference transmitter.” He said, picking up the device in his hands. “You can already tell what it does. So I will not waste my time explaining it to you.“I have seen hundreds of these over the course of my life, even building some of them from scratch. But I have never seen something of this magnitude.“Early this morning, as soon as I heard about this, I made my way to the crime scene. A large crowd was gathered there and the police had not arrived just yet.“Looking around the area, I found this left behind as well as all the CCTV cameras missing. I remembered there being quite a few so I was surprised when they were no

Ages stared at the message and then at Eden, “Cute.”“I know right?” Eden said, unable to stop grinning. “He really is the best.”“Your boyfriend is surprisingly really hard working.” The man said, smirking at the man. “And also very efficient.”“Well, what did you expect from him?” Eden asked, picking up his helmet from the tabletop. “He is one of the best in his field, if not the best.”“I am just wondering how someone like him is with someone like you.” Ages teased watching Eden’s face turn into a pout.“Hey, I do not plan on letting him take care of everything on his own,” Eden said, rolling his eyes at his mentor. “You know I am capable as well.”“I know.” Ages laughed, ruffling the man’s hair. “You do good

“Honey, I’m home,” Eden said, walking to Noel with a bouquet of flowers. “I have reservations for tonight. I am taking you out. Because I couldn’t last night. Excite-?”Before the man could finish his sentence, Noel smashed their lips together, making him stumble and fall to the ground, flowers flying everywhere.“Whoa,” Eden said, looking at Noel on top of him with a drunken smile on his face. “That was quite the greeting.”“Don’t like it?” Noel typed out, leaning in closer to Eden.“Why wouldn’t I?” Eden asked, pulling in for another kiss. “Hey, we have some time before it becomes night. Want to go to the bedroom?”“Speaking of night.” Noel wrote, getting off Eden. “I have somewhere I have to be tonight.”“Huh?? Where?&rd

Something is definitely not right here. Noel thought, looking at the letter in his hands. I know for a fact that something isn’t right.“What are you thinking about?” Eden asked, flopping on the bed beside him. “You have been looking at that note for a while now.”Eden brought the man to his house in the dead of the night as Hadley sealed the room off, after placing cameras everywhere. She is looking to see what she can find later on.“I have.” Noel typed out, smiling apologetically at Eden. “Sorry. It seems this is bothering me a lot more than I thought it would.”“Don’t apologise.” Eden wrapped his arms around him. “I almost lost you today and that is not alright. I … I am sorry. If you weren’t able to take care of yourself-““Stop it.” Noel typed out, making Eden look him in the eyes. “Stop talking about yourself like that. Mistakes

“Bring it!” Both shouted as all three got ready to attack before they were stopped by the sound of soft laughter.Everyone turned to see Noel, laughing before looking at every one of them.“I really like you all.” Noel typed out, wiping a tear from his good eye.“Noel,” Eden said, putting the vases down as he pulled the man into his embrace. “I like you too. So much.”“Get a room,” Harper said, rolling her eyes at Eden.“Should I book one for you two?” Hayden teased though neither Noel nor Eden was paying them any mind.“You are both just jealous,” Eden said, sticking his tongue out at the two.“Of course we are.” Harper and Hayden said at the same time, walking to the two and pushing Eden away.“Noel,” Hayden said, taking the man’s hand in his. “Why don’t you ditch that m

“Does it hurt a lot, Noel?” Hayden asked, patting the wound above Noel’s eyelid with alcohol-soaked cotton.Noel flinched, holding onto Eden’s shirt tighter every time the cotton touched the wound.“Of course it would.” Eden frowned, holding a packet of ice to his head, where Harper’s gun hit him. “Can’t you be gentler, Hayden?”“There is not much I can do about that,” Hayden said, not caring too much about Eden. “Noel asked not to be taken to the hospital so I need to do what I can here.”“Why do you not like the hospital, anyway, Noel?”The black-haired opened one eye, typing with his free hand, “Records.”“Oh, right. You are trying to keep your identity hidden.” Eden said, suddenly realizing. “But … how do you take care of your injuries then.”“That is one of the reasons I don’t like
The Devil's Gift (BL) When You Are a Little Needy
The moment Eden reached Noel's house complex, he noticed that the gate was closed but it wasn't even hard to jump over it.Though what was concerning was the fact that there were already fresh footsteps on the ground.Whoever they are, they are not careful. I will collect what I can and then kill them. Slowly and painfully.Running up the stairs, Eden reached Noel's door, hearing stumbling as he quickly broke the door and looked around the place.Everything was so still and quiet, he wanted to call out to the man but knew that it would be pointless, Noel would not be able to hear him anyway.Walking as quietly as possible, he entered the room to see splatters of blood on the walls and the bed. The room didn't have much but whatever was in there was overturned.I swear, if even one drop of blood there belongs to Noel, I am going to kill everyone I see and then myself.He noticed that the bathroom door was open with a

Noel suddenly opened his eyes, looking around, a little panicked. What? Where am I? He thought, looking around himself. How many times did I wake up already? Reaching for his phone, he stared at the screen blankly for a second, checking his notifications. Still no replies from him. He thought, sighing. Will I have to ask that guy for help? I would rather not. Dropping the phone on the bed, he pulled himself off and stared at the moon peeking out of the clouds. Suddenly, without warning, a flash of blood and broken glass appeared in front of the man, making his knees lose strength as he fell to the ground, trembling. “Oh, come on. Don’t be so weak.” Noel looked up to see an old man looking at him with an annoyed look on his face. “You can do better than this. I did not raise you to be so weak.” You. Noel thought, looking at the man in front of him. Why are you even still here? “I told you that

"You didn't think what you did was wrong??" Eden asked, trying to keep his temper in check."To those two girls?" The man asked, confused. "We don't care. We do that all the time. What are two little girls if we get paid a bunch?"Eden gritted his teeth so hard as he tried to control his temper as hard as he possibly could but anger just burnt in him.Kids, they were two kids just in the middle of their junior high. Hardly even close to being adults.And that was how they died. Brutally, without any mercy."Eden, calm down." Ages said but he is also struggling to himself. "We still need to question him on some other things.""I know." Eden released a hot breath. "I know. So someone just told you to take those two out?""Yes, they gave us the money and told us to kidnap those two girls and then dump them in your territory."Why though? Eden thought, trying to clear his mind but he could not get the video or the screams and pleas

“Ok, you’re the boss,” Raphael said, backing away with a wicked grin on his face. Everyone watched silently as Eden made his way to the man trying to struggle out of his restraints.“Hello,” Eden said, grinning at the man in front of him. “You talk real cocky for a bitch. Let’s see if you fight like one. Untie him.”“Yes, boss!” Some of the men rushed forward and untied this man, running away immediately after.“You know, I have been hearing rumours of the boss of the Aberrants. Many people have said that he is a pretty boy that just slept his way to the top.”He looked Eden up and down, licking his lips. “I can see why people said that now. Don’t you think you’re too pretty to be trying to be a boss of these hooligans? Why don’t you just be my bitch? I can give you money and protection.”“Now that is a tempting offer,” Eden said, smili

"You are here at last." Ages said, looking at Eden walking into the warehouse with an almost drunk look on his face. "Why do you look so stupid?"Ages stood in the middle of the crowd of Raphael’s men covering every inch of the warehouse, waiting for the four to make it there.Eden glared at Ages before breaking into a smile and patting the man on the shoulder, "It's not nice to insult people like that. Be nice ok?""Is something wrong with the boss?" Someone whispered, staring at Eden with a creepy smile still on his face."I don't think so. He looks scary as always." Someone else whispered."Maybe it's a new scare tactic?""The boss is so smart. He looks terrifying as hell.""Yeah. I can see why he doesn't usually smile often."Eden instantly felt his smile falter as he turned to Ages, "Do I look that bad or s
