Inside the CEO office of Tsujihara Group, the director and the CEO are sitting opposite each other. Kevin leans back leisurely on the couch while Raiden crossing his arms, staring at him.
"Care to elaborate? What do you mean you brought back a young guy into your house a few days ago?" Raiden asked.
Kevin answered lazily, "I accidentally saw him running away from three big guys that look like ruffians. When I tried to save him, he's already lying on the ground unconscious, so I bring him back."
"So, he's not your one-night stand?"
Kevin knitted his eyebrows, "No! If I'm gonna sleep with him why would I bring him home?"
Other than the three rules, Kevin got another rule and it is the most important one. Kevin will never bring any of his night partners to his home to do the deed. No matter how bad he is, he will never taint the house of his parents with his immoral acts.
As for Yuki, he can send him to the hospital or hotel but Kevin also didn't know what possessed him until no hesitation in him to bring Yuki home. However, when he saw how happy Aunty Emma was with Yuki's presence, he didn't regret his decision.
Raiden sighs. "Do you know who he is? His background?"
"For now, I only know his name. More than that, I didn't have time to ask." Kevin said flatly.
Knocks on the door broke their conversation. Sam and Lucas come into the room one after another.
"So how? Did you guys find anything about those guys?"
Sam clears his throat. "They are just a typical gangster. They don't serve a fixed leader. They take jobs from many people but most of them are a big shot. They like to take dangerous jobs such as kidnapping, stealing and even killing. So... we're sorry. We couldn't detect the real boss behind the incident." Both Sam and Lucas lower their head.
"Hmm. It's alright. Now I want you guys to find out about Hamada Yuki. Just look into any information and bring it to me as soon as possible." Kevin waves his hand, asking the bodyguards to leave.
"Hamada Yuki? Is that the young guy's name?" Raiden asked.
Kevin nods.
"How are you going to handle him? You wanna let him stay at your house? You don't really know him, his background. What if he actually has some other motives towards you?" Raiden can't help but worry. He's not trying to be paranoid but it's not wrong to take extra precautions.
Kevin leans back with his head arched upwards. Raiden's words made him think. Indeed, he doesn't really know who Hamada Yuki is. What if he's pretended to be chased by them but the truth is he's together with them? But... what he saw that night looks too realistic and it's not like it was made up.
Recalling the scene he saw this morning, Yuki looks naïve and innocent. It was almost impossible for someone like that to be involved with hooligans.
"I'll wait for a few days. After Sam and Lucas have found information about him, I'll decide on how to deal with him. If his record is clean, I'll let him stay at my house. If not, I'll know what to do." Kevin covers his eyes using his arm.
"Why... you help him? I know before this you had helped a few, but not to the extent you'll bring them home."
Kevin shrugs his shoulders. "My... intuition...maybe?"
......
As usual, Kevin went to his night activities. After spending a few hours on the bed with a woman, he decided to return home. It is almost one in the morning when he reached home.
Halfway to his room, he makes a u-turn and walks to Yuki's room. He stands in front of the door for about five minutes, thinking about whether to enter or not. He dropped his hand that's about to push open the door and turn his body away.
"N- No! Pl- please... do- don't do this! N- No!"
Kevin's steps were halted. Slowly he turns the doorknob and peeks his head inside.
"I be- beg you... I- I don't want this... Pl- please..!"
Yuki is crying hard while trashing here and there on the bed. He's having a nightmare. Kevin takes a seat on the bed and tried to wake him up. "Yuki? Yuki...?" He shakes his shoulders.
"No!! I don't want this! Go away! Don't touch me!"
"Yuki! Wake up! Hey...Yuki it's me! Wake up!" Kevin shakes his shoulders more vigorously.
Yuki suddenly opens his eyes with tears trickled down his cheek. And when he saw the person in front of him was his benefactor and not those disgusting clients, Yuki clings to Kevin, hugs him tightly.
The hug left Kevin flabbergasted. His hand hanging in the air doesn't know where to put it. The small body is trembling in his chest.
Slowly, Kevin's hand lands on Yuki's back. He gently caressing and tapping it. "Alright. Alright. It's fine. You're safe here. No one will hurt you."
Yuki cries harder. It takes some time for him to calm down and Kevin didn't mind comforting and accompany him. When he heard a steady breathe and Yuki already fell asleep in his arm, Kevin tucked him into the bed and return to his room.
.....
The next day, Kevin went to the office a little bit earlier. After what happened last night, he desperately wants to know what Yuki had gone through in his life before.
When Kevin arrived at his office, Sam is already waiting in front of the door.
"So, how?" Kevin asked impatiently.
Sam lowers his head dejectedly then puts a piece of paper on the table. "I'm really sorry Mr. Kevin. The person with Hamada Yuki's name and age between 20 to 25 is almost 150 people. But after narrowing the search this is the closest and the most similar to Mr. Yuki. However, we can only find his information until the age of 15. After that, it was like he's suddenly disappeared. No traces left." Sam explained.

• Yuki was seen adopted/brought away by a middle-aged guy after his mother died
• No appearance made / Never been seen after being adopted
Kevin's eyes fall on the few pictures included. Yuki looks so young and his hair is much shorter but his features are easily recognized.
"I went to his house residential area. His neighbors said that their family is friendly and kind so they never have any problems with anyone. However, since Hamada Ken's death, the family is not as cheerful as they used to be." Sam mentioned what is not stated.
"What about the guy who took him away? Does anyone know him?" Kevin's eyes are still on the pictures. In the picture, Kevin is smiling together with his parents and neighbor. Looked like it was taken during a festival in their neighborhood.
"Nope. No one ever saw him. They came only two times. After the first time, one of the closest neighbors asked Yuki who he was, Yuki said it was his paternal uncle but it was the first time he saw him. When the second time he came, he immediately brought Yuki away and no one ever saw him again after that."
Kevin tapping on his table. "Alright. You may go."
Sam is about to exit the room but he suddenly turned again as he forgot to mention one thing. "I'm sorry Mr. Kevin. I forgot to tell you. The neighbor also said after Yuki went disappeared, there are two times a group of men came to his house. They came with a bat and those neighbors heard things in Yuki's house were smashed around. They were too afraid so they didn't dare to say anything to those men."
Kevin hums. "Asked someone to stay look out at that house. Report to me if anyone suspicious came." Sam nods and steps out of the office.
....
Knocks on the door jerked Kevin out of his trance. His mood worsens when he saw the person who knocked.
"Hi, darling." A woman walked into the room. Her steps are like she's walking on a runaway, attracting all eyes to her.
"What are you doing here, April?" Kevin asked flatly.
"I want to meet you. It's been so long since we met. Let's have lunch with me, please?" April Stewart, a famous actress and model.
There are two empty chairs but she lands her ass on the table and inclines her body, showing the cleavage. Other guys might react to it but not Kevin.
"There is no reason for us to meet and no reason for me to have lunch with you. So, show yourself out," Kevin points at the door.
Not giving up, April starts to place her hand on Kevin's shoulders. Then, slowly she moves to his chest, with her lusty eyes. "Don't be like this, darling. Let's go out together. Or if you're too busy, we can meet for dinner and then... let's enjoy the night together." She whispers the last parts.
Kevin grabs the hand that starting to move lower to his six packs and yanks it away. April almost stumbles on the floor due to the sudden moves. "If you need a man, I'll send some men to you. Since it's you, I guess one it's not enough. How about...two? or maybe three? I'm sure you can satisfy all of them at once, right?" Kevin sneers.
April turns red from embarrassment. Before she could retort, Kevin warns, "Stop looking for me and stop coming to my office. We have nothing to do with each other. So, stay away from me." He shot a death glare towards April.
Feeling shudder but still, she doesn't know how to give up, "How could you do this? I'm your fiance!"
Kevin chuckles. "There's no black and white that stated we're engaged. Are you taking seriously about our parents' jokes? Clearly, my mom agreed to your mom's suggestion to unite us as a spur of the moment."
"My mother never jokes about things like this! She's serious and you must obey your mom's wish!" She stomps her feet like a kid didn't get the toy that she wants.
Kevin raises from his seat then slowly approaching her. His almost 190cm figure towering the 169, "Don't talk like you know my mom. If she likes you, she'll talk about you nonstop but I never heard her spoke about you in front of me. Plus, my mom only wished for my happiness, which I'll never achieve with you. So now, get out of my sight!"
April jolts and scurries away. 'You wait, Kevin! I'll make sure you fall into my arms!'
....
It's just 8:30 pm but Kevin is on his way home. Usually, he'll return home late in the night or at 1-2 am. However, he lost his mood to do it and leaves when they're in the middle of it. To ease the other person, he compensates the guy with a thousand bucks.
This is the second time he leaves when he is in the middle of sex. It wasn't like he suddenly becomes impotent. It is more like, nothing intrigues him more. There is no excitation or fascination when he saw those guys or girls willingly spread wide their legs and begging him.
When Kevin reached home, all lights are still on.
"Kevin, you're early today. Have you had your dinner?" asked Aunty Emma.
With a faint smile, Kevin shakes his head.
"Let me reheat the meals for you, okay?" Kevin hums and going up to his room to take a bath first.
A warm spaghetti with meatballs had been placed on the dining table. Kevin brings it into his mouth, having a quiet dinner alone.
When he's about to finish, Yuki walked into the kitchen. Feels like the time had stopped moving, they stare at each other.
"I- I'm sorry...Mr. Kevin. I- I didn't know you're here. So- sorry for disturbing." Yuki breaks the silence. He quickly lowers his head, feeling rude for looking at another person's face.
"Thirsty?" Yuki nods. "Then, go get your drink. You're not disturbing at all."
Kevin watched his movements. With his slender body, small waist and that long hair, Yuki looks so much like a girl from behind. Kevin wonders why the young guy keeps his hair long until it reached his waist.
"Yuki," Kevin called. The younger guy quickly turns around.
"Yes, Mr. Kevin."
"Sit here. I want to talk to you." He pats on the empty space in front of him. Yuki obediently takes a sit.
