After buying a gallon of milk, Hayden quickly ran to the car. He unlocked the car and placed the milk on the passenger seat.
He looked at his watch to see the time and sighed in relief. He had 20 minutes left. Right when he was about to sit down, he heard a loud noise.
'What was that? It sounded like someone was fighting.'
Hayden frowned.
'I still have 20 minutes left, maybe I can go check out what that was.' Hayden thought as he slammed the car door shut.
He walked towards the sound and stopped in his tracks.
A young man around 19 years old was standing over a bloody man. The man grabbed the bloody man by his shirt and repeatedly punched the unconscious man in a rage.
"How dare you steal, you traitor." The man growled furiously.
The man then took out his pistol and shot the unconscious man in the head cleanly.
Hayden let out a gasp on accident and he clamped his mouth shut with both hands but it was too late.
The man had obviously heard him. The man looked up and they locked eyes. Now that the man was looking at him, Hayden was able to see what the man looked like.
The man was very handsome with amber colored eyes. His left side of his hair was dyed silver while the other side was black.
The man wore black jeans with ripped holes and a black shirt. He wore a black leather jacket over his shirt and Hayden saw that the man had a silver chain on his neck.
Hayden squinted and saw that the chain had three letters dangling on it which were: S, D, and M. He wondered what those letters meant but before he could find out, the man knocked him out cold.

"Fuck, fuckity fuck! I can't believe an innocent bystander saw me kill that bastard!" Cassius yelled in frustration.
"Hey, it's okay Casey. Don't worry. Just bring the boy to the mansion. I'll tell Damien for you, at least Sinclair is out on a business trip." Matteo said gently over the phone.
Cassius sighed.
He knew the most important rule in the Italian Mafia was to never let an innocent bystander get involved. He knew that once Sinclair got back from his trip, he would be punished for breaking that rule.
"Okay."
Cassius lifted the boy into his arms and waited for the bodyguards to come pick them up.
When they both finally got into the black car, Cassius glanced at the boy.
The boy seemed to be in a deep sleep, which he was as Cassius had struck him in the back of his neck with his hand.
The boy breathed in and out and Cassius could smell mint, his favorite smell. He figured it came from the boy.
The boy had short midnight black hair and Cassius remembered that the boy had blue eyes the color of sapphire. The boy was wearing a dark red long sleeved T-shirt, khaki pants and a pair of white combat boots.
Cassius noticed that the boy had five piercings in his ear; three on the left and two on the right.
He stopped looking at the boy and stared outside of his window.
His heart started to pound when they pulled up to the mansion.
Cassius lifted the smaller boy into his arms and got out of the car.
A man was waiting outside the mansion doors. He had dyed pink hair and chocolate brown eyes. He was a few inches shorter than Cassius. This man was Matteo Moretti, Cassius's childhood friend and soulmate.
Cassisus also had three more soulmates other than Matteo. So far, Cassius only met 3 out of 4 soulmates which were Matteo, Damien and Sinclair. They all knew that each other were soulmates ever since they were children as all four of them were childhood friends and raised in the Italian Mafia.
Matteo finally saw the two of them and ushered them inside.
"I told Damien what happened. He said to put the boy in the guest bedroom."
Cassius nodded and placed the boy into the bed and tucked him in. Cassius stared at the sleeping boy for a few seconds longer before leaving the room.
"You are nothing but a worthless piece of trash."

Hayden jolted up and gasped for air. He gulped when he remembered he had a nightmare about his parents. He realized that he was sitting on a bed and that he was currently in a room. He looked around the huge room and let out a small gasp when he realized that there was another person in the room.
It was a man who was sitting in a chair next to his left side. His long legs were crossed, making him appear calm and collected.
He was wearing a black dress bottom and a white dress top. His sleeves were neatly rolled up which revealed a tattoo sleeve on both arms and bulging muscles. The man had a Rolex watch on his left hand, and on his right hand, the man had three gold and silver rings. The first few buttons of his white dress shirt were unbuttoned, revealing abs.
The man had short dirty blonde hair and eyes so green, it reminded Hayden of the forest.
'His eyes are so beautiful,' Hayden thought in awe.
He was jolted out of his thoughts when the mysterious man cleared his throat.
Hayden looked attentively at the man and waited for him to speak.
"So you're finally awake." The man stated calmly.
Hayden's sparkling sapphire blue eyes widened slightly when he heard the man's ocean deep voice.
"Who are you?" Hayden asked.
"I'm Damien Armani," He said with a smirk.
Damien waited for the boy to show fear as people usually did when they heard his name but was shocked when the boy did the exact opposite.
When Hayden heard the man say his name, he felt a slight burn on his chest. Feeling the pain, Hayden's eyes widened with joy. He immediately got up from the bed and rushed towards the man.
Damien was stunned. As Hayden practically jumped into his arms, Damien unconsciously wrapped his arms around the smaller boy into his embrace.
Damien noticed that the boy smelled like refreshing mint, and he couldn't help but breathe in the smell.
"My name is Hayden Archer!" The younger male exclaimed excitedly.
Damien was confused as to why this boy would tell him his name. Suddenly, Damien felt a scorching pain on his neck and he winced. Damien's eyes widened in shock and wonder. He pulled back from the hug, and cupped the boy's cheek with his hands.
Damien's cold face melted away, and he broke out in a huge smile.
"So you're my final soulmate," Damien stated as he leaned forward to hug Hayden again.
Damien held Hayden tightly, never wanting to let go.
