Unexpected Encounter

In the majestic garden of Mandarin Oriental Hotel, the flowers were in full bloom. The moon was full and the place were illuminated by its mysterious and elegant lighting turning the whole place into something out of this world. But Shawn Thompson was unable to admire its beauty, because the scene in front of him keeps on suffocating him. Mysterious lights lit up the place, as a couple of familiar silhouettes embrace under a palm tree. "Zeus..." The woman's voice was gentle and soft. Her arms wrapped around the handsome man's neck as she lay her head on his head intimately. But the man seems thinking about something, and after some hesitation, he gently and slowly pushed her away. When Zeus Stefano suddenly turn on Shawn Thompson's direction, he quickly hid under an oak tree, bringing his trembling hands over his mouth to muffle any curse he wanted to shout. Then he heard him says, "Cristina, you said you're going to give me a surprise. What is it?" Cristina Thompson's voice was sweet and her tone a little bit shy when she said, "Zeus, I'm pregnant." At that moment, Shawn felt he has been struck by lightning. His world started crumbling. His eyes widen in horror and his face turn pale. "What?!" Zeus sounded shocked too. "Zeus I'm pregnant!" Cristina threw herself into his embrace hugging him, her face full of happiness. "I'm carrying your child. You're going to be a father soon. Are you happy?" Zeus lowered his head, his brows furrowed. His face still shocked. "How far along are you?" "I checked with the doctor yesterday and he said I'm one month pregnant." After she said that, Cristina slowly looked up and glanced at the place where Shawn was hiding. Her lips hooked up in a victorious smile, "It's probably the day when my brother went abroad for his photo shoot and we did it in your house.. That's probably when..." A month ago? When he went abroad for his shoot? But from what he could understand from their conversation their affair had been going on for a long time now. For a year? Or maybe more than that, Shawn couldn't understand what's going on anymore. And then it hit him, and he felt like throwing up. He felt sick. Why he didn't notice before? Cristina was still talking but he couldn't understand anymore. His mind was blank, and he felt empty. After a while, Zeus suddenly said. "Let's go. We've been out here for too long. He'll get suspicious." But not before Zeus took Cristina in his arms, the same arms that always hold Shawn, and kissed her passionately. Shawn was pale as a sheet and his heart felt it was shredded in small pieces before it was ripped from his chest. Through blood shot eyes, he saw Zeus gently held his step sister gently, as they walk toward his direction. And when he saw them approaching, he run away in panic. **** He felt dizzy and weak, and Shawn didn't know if it's from the alcohol he just drunk with his lover and step sister, or because of the truth he discovered about them. He staggered on his feet, he didn't knew where he was, and he didn't care. Why would he? After what he'd just discovered, nothing matters to him anymore. Turning right to the next corner, he suddenly bump into a group of big muscled men clad in black. He was about to apologize when one of them grab him and held him tightly. "That's him. We finally found him. Take him away!" Huh? Him? Had they gotten the wrong person? What's going on? Shawn struggled for a bit and tried to resist, but there's no strength left in him. He's getting more dizzy. And he's sight turning more blurry, until he felt his limbs gave out, and everything turned black... *** In the Presidential Suite of Mandarin Oriental Hotel, the private elevator opened and a group of black suited bodyguards and the hotel's CEO escorted a very handsome and charming man out. The man had very strong and intimidating aura. And his looks were absolute perfection. With a height of 2 meters, and lean and muscled body, he's better looking than any actors or runway model. He was wearing a very expensive customized fitting three piece suit, with a white gold cufflinks that glistened splendidly. The black suit encased his long powerful legs as he walk elegantly along the hall and stop in front of a massive oak doors. A bodyguard suddenly step out and open the door for him. The man stepped in the room, loosen his tie and throw it carelessly on the floor. He only took two steps from the door when he suddenly felt an odd surge if warmth within him. Then a click-he was locked from the outside. He was caught by surprise, and he frown. He reached for the door knob trying to open it but nothing works. The man's expression darkened and that's when he heard his phone rang. It's King. He picked up, and heard a cheeky male voice from the other end. "Hey bro, you're finally back! We especially prepared a gift for you! Have you seen it? Did you like it?!" A hint of anger spread on his handsome face. Squinting his eyes, he said coldly. "What the f**k are you playing? Open the damn door. Now!" But instead to feel scared the cheeky guy just laugh at him. "Come on bro, don't be a killjoy. Just focus and enjoy your gift. Actually, this time I find you a man. You never confirmed if what you prefer, and because you didn't like the woman before I thought you like men more. Don't worry what I found is a top notch beauty, you'll definitely be satisfied!" And then the bastard cut him off, before he could talk to him. When he tried calling again, it's already out of service. *** Leander Martinez, stood, frozen, in front of the bathroom door with a solemn look. He could hear the sound of someone showering inside. His lips were pulled down, and with a silent curse he open the door. Thick cloud of mist escaped through the door, and a silhouette of a man was standing behind the veil of the water droplets, upon seeing him Leander froze. As the mist finally dispersed, the scene became clearer to him. There was beautiful man leaning on the wall, watching him through hooded eyes. He had a pretty exquisite face, his lips almost red, his eyes were glistening, shining brightly. Even Leander who was used in seeing beautiful woman and men all the time was in awe. Is this the great beauty King and the rest had gifted him? He's indeed beautiful and exquisite, but what a pity no one can spark his interest, be it woman or man. What a waste? He watched him for a little bit then said coldly, "Get out. I'm giving you a minute to vanished in front of me, and I didn't want to see you again." But he just blinked at him, as if noticing him for the first time. He frowned, then watched him intently. And suddenly he reached out. When he saw him did not respond to him, he grabbed his pants. Leander froze, his muscles tensing up. He thought would puke any moment now or felt an itch all over his body. But even a while later, none of that happened. Leander had a severe dermatographia. Besides his kin and friends, no one can get close to him. But in this moment he discovered that he's not actually repulsed by this young man. And his body was not displaying any sort of unpleasant effects. Leander lowered his head and finally got a good look of him. And was startled when he saw an intense emotions buried within this stranger's eyes. But before he could figure his thoughts out, the man was already moving. Arms wrapped around his waist, and soft lips peck his. He looked up at him with those wide, soulful eyes and then he whispered. "Help me...." ________________________________________________
