Arturo's POVI went inside my office and found Leo already waiting for me. I motioned for him to sit down before taking a seat behind my desk. Leo looked nervous as he sat in front of me."You wanted to talk?" I asked him."Yes," he said."What is it about? It's rare that you approach me like this," I said.Leo took a deep breath before talking. "It's about Avery," he said and I knew exactly where this conversation was going. "Did you do a background check on him?" he asked."Yes," I answered."So you know why I'm here then," he said as he leaned back on his chair."We can only suspect. We can't do any confirmatory testing Leo," I said."I know," he said dejectedly. "Let's just keep this to ourselves for now," I said."Will do," he replied."Do you know where she's buried?" Leo asked."Yes. Do you want to know the address?" I asked."Not yet. Do you have a picture of her?" he asked.I nodded and pulled out a folder from one of the drawers. I grabbed the photo from the folder and hand

"What the fuck are you planning, Arturo?! I thought we talked about this!" Leo shouted as he barged into my office."I realized that people will find out anyway. Do you really think he'll be safe once we let him leave? They already saw him around us almost all the time," I calmly said as I lean back against the chair. Leo sighed in defeat as he slumped down onto the chair. "He can't live like this. He grew up with a normal life," Leo said."He didn't. Your mom constantly switched his schools and he's incredibly naive for his age. Do you really think he grew up with a normal life?" I asked."I don't mean it like that. I meant, not surrounded by the shit we do. I don't think he can handle it," Leo said. "Don't you think it would be easier for us to protect him when he's here?" I asked."Yes, it's easier, but he can't live the way he used to anymore and we're putting him closer to danger," Leo said, his jaw clenching in anger.We sat in silence for a moment, thinking about how Avery wo

I heard Leo getting out of the bathroom so I quickly put the picture down and went back to my seat. Leo sat beside me and grabbed a slice of pizza before shoving the whole thing into his mouth. I stared at the TV, avoiding eye contact and Leo must've noticed it. He tapped me on the shoulder and I looked at him and gave him a small smile."You okay?" He asked, his voice muffled with the food still in his mouth.My face scrunched up in disgust. "Don't talk with your mouth full," I said.Leo covered his mouth and held a finger up as he chewed his food aggressively before swallowing. "Sorry about that," he said before swallowing one more time. "I was saying, you look bothered. Are you okay?" He asked."Yeah," I said before facing away from him again."You don't seem like it. You can tell me," Leo said as he scooched closer to me.I bit my lip as I contemplated on whether I should tell him or not. Leo sighed and brought his attention back to the game after gulping down a can of soda. I to

Arturo's POV"Avery, please open the door," I shouted as I continuously knock on Avery's door. Leo briefed on what happened and it made sense as to why his house needed to be burned. Avery didn't understand why it had to be done and he was heartbroken seeing the house he grew up in burst into flames."Shit, I don't know how to explain this to him. He probably hates me now," Leo said, worry evident in his face."We can explain our side, but it would be hard for him to understand. We need to explain everything to him once he had calmed down," I sighed. "Call Tiago and we'll talk in my office," I said before walking to my office. Soon, the doors opened and Tiago and Leo came in. Tiago had a worried look on his face as he sat in front of the desk across from Leo."What is happening?" Tiago asked.Leo pulled out the velvet box from his pocket and handed it to Tiago. "What? Are you proposing to me?" Tiago asked, earning a smack on the head from Leo."Just open the fucking box," Leo grumb

Avery's POV"I'm so sorry for burning your house. It had to be done. I wouldn't do it if there was another way," Leo said."You're my brother," I said through the tears flowing down my face. "Yeah, I am," Leo replied with joy evident in his tone as he wrapped his arms around me. It still hurt that everything that I had was taken away from me, but knowing that Leo is my brother and that I still have someone other than myself, made me feel better. Leo rubbed my back as I cried on his chest. I can't believe that I truly have a brother. Leo pulled away and took my hand as he led me to the bed. We sat beside each other as he wiped the tears off of my face."Arturo said we might be half brothers," I said."Yes, we might be. We can't really know since mom is gone," Leo chuckled humorlessly."What does it mean for me?" I asked."I don't know. All you need to know for now is that I'll protect you no matter what," Leo said before placing a kiss on my forehead. "Dinner is about to start. If yo

I woke up the next day with Arturo nowhere to be found when Leo came into my room to bring me some breakfast. We ate on the couch like the night before and the memories of what happened last night entered my mind and I almost choked on the pancakes I was eating. "Are you okay?" Leo asked as he handed me a glass of water."Y-yeah," I mumbled before taking a sip of water. "Where's Arturo?" I asked."Just out for work. He'll be back soon," Leo replied. "What do you want to do for your birthday tomorrow?" Leo suddenly asked.I whipped my head toward him, looking confused. "How did you know my birthday?" I asked."We did a background check on you," he casually said."Do you do that to everyone who stays here?" I asked."Yep," Leo replied.That makes sense, I guess."So what do you want to do?" Leo asked before shoving a spoonful of pancakes in his mouth."A carnival," I said.Leo looked at me for a moment before nodding. "Have never been to one before?" he asked."No. Mom didn't allow me

"Happy birthday, baby," Arturo whispered in my ear as I woke up."Thank you," I said before pulling him into a kiss. Arturo chuckled against my lips before kissing me back. I pushed him on his back and straddled him as we kiss. I slipped my hand under his waistband but he grabbed my hand, stopping me from making any further move. I pulled away from the kiss, pouting at Arturo, making him chuckle. "We need to take a shower first. It's already twelve in the afternoon. We have to get ready if you still want to go to the carnival," Arturo said.I sighed and got off the bed and went inside the bathroom. Arturo followed behind me and helped me undress. I tried covering myself, still feeling shy despite Arturo already touching me more than once. Arturo start to undress in front of me and I quickly turned away, not trusting myself to react calmly after seeing him naked. I stepped into the shower and Arturo stepped in behind me.Arturo grabbed some soap and started washing me all over my bod

Arturo's POVIt's been fifteen minutes and the two still haven't come back from the restroom and I was starting to get worried. I got out of the car and ran to the restroom area to look for them, but I was immediately met with a large crowd gathering by the restroom. I pushed through the people blocking the way to the restroom and found Leo laying on the ground with the paramedics tending to him. I cursed under my breath and immediately ran to his side.His face was beaten black and blue and he looks like he was barely breathing. The paramedics asked me to stand aside as they lifted Leo into a stretcher. I tried looking around for Avery as I followed Leo as he was being carried to the ambulance, but couldn't spot him. My heart dropped as soon as I realized that something may have happened to Avery and I couldn't get ay answers until Leo woke up."Sir, we're sorry, but you can't get in the ambulance with us," one of the paramedics said."Was he alone when you found him? Was someone els

It's been a few weeks and Arturo has been completely busy. I was missing him terribly but I knew he was just finishing up some work so we can leave as safely as possible. I busied myself in the kitchen and even worked until the late hours of the night so I can stay awake until Arturo gets home. Arturo wasn't a fan of me staying up so late at night but I don't want to go to sleep without seeing him for the whole day.The bags under his eyes are deepening and it was worrying me. Even Leo and Tiago noticed it and begged him to take a rest, but he didn't listen to any of them. After a few days, I was finally able to convince him to take a rest. Arturo always seemed peaceful as he sleeps. He was genuinely a beautiful man. It was already past noon but I didn't want to wake him up yet. I want him to rest as much as possible. Arturo had his arms around me as he slept. His grip suddenly tightened around me as he nuzzled his face in my neck. He gently bit the skin at the juncture of my neck, e

I woke up later and the sun was already setting. My bladder also felt like it was about to explode. I tried getting out of bed but two arms are wrapped around me like some sort of harness, preventing me from getting out. I looked behind me and saw Arturo dead asleep. Blood doesn't seem to be coming out of his nose anymore so that's good, but it still looked a little bit bruised. I tried shaking him awake but his grip just tightened around me. "Arturo, I need to pee. Let go," I said, trying to wake him up."No," he grumbled with his eyes still closed."I need to pee," I said as I try to push him off of me. "Just pee on me then," he said and I stared at him in disbelief as his eyes snapped open, as if in shock at what just came out of his mouth.Arturo slowly let go of me and I quickly got up and went for the bathroom. After I was done relieving myself, Arturo was still on the bed, scrolling through his phone. with the way he was laying on the bed, I just wanted to go on top of him an

Avery's POVArturo had to leave the house for work today and I took the opportunity to talk to Leo since he was left behind. I knocked on his door and heard shuffling and cursing from the other side of the door before it was opened."I'm sorry, I can talk later if that's fine," I said."No, it's okay.""Yes, please."Leo and, I'm guessing Tiago, said at the same time. Silence followed after and I looked at Leo it did look like they were in the middle of something. He was shirtless and had red marks all over his neck and it didn't take a genius to figure out what they were doing. "We'll talk in my office. Let me just get dressed," Leo said and I nodded.Oddly enough, I wasn't really bothered by what I saw. I went to his office as instructed, and sat on the couch in front of his desk. I tried going over what I was going to say to him and I could feel my hands start to sweat. I bit my lip as I waited anxiously for Leo to come in, I don't know how he's going to react and it's scaring me

It's just been a few days since Avery asked for space and it's already driving me crazy. His side of the bed still smells like him an it's making me want to grab him from that kitchen and lock him in my room. I don't know what's causingme to be this clingy towards him. It's probably the horniness. I just can't belive I'm careles enough to let Avery see me like that. I keep on forgetting how different he grew up compared to me. I just hope that incident won't push him away. I'd be willing to give up everything just for him. Tiago had to make me stop working after seeing me so distracted and I hated it even more now than I don't have work to do.I'm stuck with my thoughts and I hated it. I know Avery is distracting himself by working at the kitchen and I could only watch from afar as he immerse himself into cooking. Even when we were eating together, he barely spared a galnce towards me. It took every muscle inme to stop myself from pulling him into my lap. I sighed for probably the nth

Arturo's POVAfter that night, I could no longer think straight. I want Avery so bad, but I know I can't force him to do something he's not yet comfortable with. I didn't want to overwhelm him, but god I want to be inside him so bad. I just want to snatch him from the kitchen and fuck him senseless. "Arturo!" Tiago yelled while snapping his fingers in front of my face."Huh, what?" I asked as I snapped back into reality. "We have a meeting with Alexis this afternoon, remember?" he asked."Y-yeah, that. For what again?" I asked."You know what, maybe Tiago and I just deal with it. The way you've been looking at my brother and you being distracted the whole day already tells me everything I need to know and I really want to get it out of my mind so we'll just leave you alone before I try and kill you for wanting to fuck my brother," Leo said in one breath and dragged Tiago out of my office.I let out a sigh of relief when they left because my pants were already killing me. I tucked m

I sat still on the bed, my face looking like I'd dipped it on a platter of red blush. "You want my help?" Arturo asked and I quickly shook my head.I hesitantly took off my shirt and neatly folded it before placing it beside me. I was wasting as much time as I can. I was excited yet nervous. I didn't know that kind of thing can make me feel in such a way that I would want more. I took a deep breath before standing up and pulling down my pants along with my underwear. I kicked them to the side and now I was completely naked in front of Arturo.I kept my gaze on his chest, preventing my eyes from wandering further down and it almost looked like I was glaring at his chest. He placed his hands on my hips and pulled me closer to him, making our bodies touch. My body reacted almost immediately and I know Arturo could feel it."Tell me when you want me to stop, okay?" he said and I nodded. "Use your words.""Okay, I'll tell you when you want to stop," I said.Arturo was satisfied with my an

Ever since I got back here, I've already claimed Arturo's room as my own. Arturo wasn't complaining so I started slowly moving my thighs into his room one by one. Leo even caught me carrying a bunch of my clothes into Arturo's room. He raised a brow at me but didn't question it. Luckily, his closet had enough room for both of our clothes."I don't know why you even bother putting your clothes in there when you keep using mine," Arturo said as he wrapped his arms around my waist."You can use it?" I asked, knowing full well that he was two sizes bigger than me. "If I wanted a crop top, maybe I would," he chuckled."Some of my clothes don't fit me anymore. That's why I've been wearing yours," I said as I turn around his arms so I could face him."Want to go shopping?" he asked."I'll feel bad if you're paying for me again," I replied."No need to feel bad. I'd gladly spend millions on you if I have to," he said."That's not very smart," I said, making him laugh. "I really want a job,

Avery's POVWe finally got back home and Tiago immediately suggested a makeover. Given that quite a few people already saw me backat Lorenzo's estate, he reasoned out that it's best that I change my appearance until people forget about me so now I'm sitting on a chair in front of a mirror getting my hair bleached. Even my brows weren't safe. I asked Tiago how will I explain the lashes and he just told me that we could just tell people that I got it tinted.My nose scrunched at the smell of bleach on my head. I honestly think that Tiago wanted to bleach Leo's hair, but he constantly refused so I was the next target. He really didn't give me a chance to say no. He didn't even tell Arturo so when he saw what Tiago was doing, he got an earful. I didn't mind though, and as soon as Arturo realized that I wasn't really bother by it. He gave up. Tiago washed off the bleac and toned my hair and I'm surprised that it turned into platinum blonde without frying all my hair off. I guess Tiago was

Arturo's POVUpon hearing about the death of Lorenzo, I thought Avery was going to come home right after, but Alexis kept him locked in his room. I tried talking to Milan about why this happened and he kept saying that he doesn't know. I knew better than to trust him, but I was desperate. She said she will let him go once we give her what she wants.Today's the day of her ascension ceremony, right after the day of Lorenzo's funeral. I got to talk to Avery on the phone yesterday, concerned that he might be devastated by his father's death. I was shocked to hear when he said he really didn't feel anything about his father's death. I could only guess that he didn't form a deep attachment with his father in that short amount of time, but I'm still surprised that he's handling this well.We reached the estate and it was clear that Alexis was trying to rebrand and reform their clan. The Esteves and The Biacnhis are here. Just like us, there were rivals with Lorenzo's clan. Marco Esteves app
