***********************
Robert gazed at the man who he's very familiar, he just went to his eldest son's house to visit his son's family and of course his grand children. When he saw Anita his daughter in law he signal her to come near him. When his daughter in law was in front of him he whispered. "What's the Diplomat doing here?"
"He move in to this house couple of weeks ago but I don't know what happened Dad he suddenly act like he's a visitor coming from his house and courting Rion." Robert Harris looked at Clarence and then back to Anita.
"It's weird." The only thing he can say. "But noble and cute."
"Yeah I thought so too. He's treating him like a fine young man with utmost respect. I'm happy seeing Rion having those blush on his face whenever Clarence would do something sweet." Anita giggle. "But of course we still don't show to him our approval. It might funny to think that we act like Rion's parents, specially Tristan if only you can see how strict he is. Well he got a hearing tomorrow so my husband probably will going home late."
"Then I'll act as his father on behalf of my son." Anita laugh at her father in law and just let the old man sit across Clarence and left the two alone.
"So I heard that you are here to court Rion?" The man said as soon as he sat down.
Clarence got up and extended his hands for greeting. "I'm sorry Sir I didn't noticed you. I'm Clarence."
Robert accepted the gesture but remained to have an indifferent face towards him. "
"I heard you are living in my son's house, what is the vice president's son doing in my son's home?"
Robert's cold expression and voice sent shiver down to Clarence spine. "Sir I'm here to court someone who lives in this house." Clarence said nervously. "He's actually pregnant with my child." Clarence said sadly. "Don't worry it is your son's Terrence client. His name is Rion."
"Rion Dunst the controversial Omega who's currently standing against those people with big names accusing and tying them up to the biggest case of Human trafficking in our county or I must say Omega trafficking. Not only that he has the balls to point his finger to the departed CEO of Firerise....."
"I don't mean to disrespect...." Clarence cut Robert from saying anything further. "But I don't think we should be discussing this topic here. We are outside of the court and I don't want his catching us talking about this here."
"Young man are you sure what you are getting yourself into? Does your father know what you're up to?" Robert asked. "It won't be easy, it might even ruin your refutation. It might even break you in the process as well because the moment you accept him you will also accept the controversies that ties up along with him."
Clarence remained silent for a couple of minutes. "I don't really know Sir, maybe there will come a time I will hate it but I know I won't regret it. What I will regret is losing him."
"Very well then, I wish you a good luck in making that young man say yes. Clarence my boy, those broken people when they love they love really hard, they give everything to the point they no longer keep something for themselves that's why when they get hurt they hurt so badly that it wrecks them. So make sure that you are sure of that you feel about him. You can't just take him because you feel like it and then later on leave him because you no longer feel that you like him."
"My feelings for him runs much deeper than like Sir, I love him and I won't ever let go of him." Robert smiled at Clarence.
"Tell your father, I'm sure he will understand and as a person who has grandchildren I'm pretty sure he will be running here in no time and shower his first grandchild with love. Believe in your father he will understand. He may look tough and cold on the outside but believe me he loves you very much."
"You know my father personally?" Clarence asked.
"Let's just say we are friends even from back then. He used to ask for advices from me. I better go to my precious grandchildren and leave you two alone. He's coming, you should have felt his pheromones. Better mark him once you got him, his scent is quite sweet and refreshing I'm pretty sure others will find it hard to resist. That collar won't protect him forever." Robert got up and left the living room and just as what Robert said Rion appear in less than 2 minutes but Rion was not how Clarence is expecting
"Mister I told you not to do this anymore." Rion said.
Clarence eyes is fixed on Rion's face. He's wearing a simple Shirt and his hair is chop to a boy cut he still looks pretty but gone the feminine look of him that makes people think he's a woman.
"What happened? Why are you looking like that?" Clarence got up from his seat. He lay the bouquet of flowers he's holding and walk towards Rion. He touch the tip of Rion's hair that now reach up to the top of his ears. It was really short that make him look like a pretty boy who's just entering a puberty.
"I figure that you might be confused so I cut my hair and revert to how I should dress. That way it will remind you that despite how I look and my second gender I'm still a man." Rion said, a faint sad smile plays on his lips. "Mister..."
"Clarence I told you to call me Clarence." Clarence demanded.
"You are always into women, I'm not one I may have look like one but I'm not. You are better with them than me."
"What makes you think that I'm better with them? If I were then I would have settled down a long time ago. If you are not better for me then how come I wanted to be tied down to you? You are making me want to get married and settled down." Clarence took as step forward that made Rion step back. "You are making me want to dream of our future family and you are making me want to work hard so I can have both my dreams and you." Rion has no where to step back when his back hit the wall and Clarence took this chance to corner Rion. He put both of his hands on the wall traping Rion in between. "I'm a greedy person Rion and you are making me even more greedy. I figure why should I give up two of the things I want the most when I can have both of them. I just need to work, twice of even ten times that I'm doing if it means having you and my dreams." Clarence lean in hug him and kiss him to the side of his head. "Don't ever say what's better for me and what's not, I'm tired of fighting against this feelings I have for you, I just want to surrender and let my heart love you even if it means losing my dreams. Don't worry about my dreams I can work hard for that specially now that I have the reason. I want that world to know someday and I want them to respect you and I'll make them I promise you that." Clarence didn't let go as he said the words to him. "Just give me a chance in your heart that's all I'm asking. You won't regret it cause I am not leaving you for better or for worst no matter how you look like I will always love you."
That night Clarence went to his father's house, he's really nervous. All his life he has been a good son, never once he tarnished the name of their family even with all his night life and promiscuous ways he made sure to make things clean. That's why he is very scared to tell about Rion but he needs to man up no matter what happened even if his father disowned him he will fight for Rion that's how determine he is.
"Dad?" He knocked to his father's study room.
His father quickly stand and gave his one and only son a hug. "What brings my Son here? You hardly visits your father these days. I know you are busy but please visit this old man."
"Come on Dad I don't see the old man in you, if you would only entertain people you can still land a good partner and maybe married someday." Clarence joke, though he used to tell his father to get married again after his Mother died.
"I don't expect you to understand but when the time comes that you find the right person for you which I highly doubt because you said you will marry someone who can beneficial to the boost of your career. To the point people thought it was me pushing you to do it but because I'm a very loving father I let you. So when are you getting married?"
Clarence laugh at his father. "Probably when he said yes." Clarence said which made his father stop.
"He? Since when? Did you he came from a prestige family? Who was it?"
"You probably already know him but never met him." Clarence smile.
"Now my son is smiling who could this person be?" His father tease.
"Dad no matter what happened knows that I love you. I will remain your son."
"Hey this is getting me nervous. Is there something that I need to know?" His father persuade.
"Rion Dunst, the person I'm courting and want to marry is Rion Dunst." Clarence blow a deep breath. "You can punch me or disowned me if you want but I won't leave him not that he agreed to be with me but even so I made up my mind Dad, I want him and I will have him."
Clarence father sit on the couch and he wave his hand to tell Clarence to sit across him. "Are you sure about this? That young man is wrap around with a big and dirty controversy."
"I tried fighting it Dad, believe me I did. Even before the whole thing blow up I already knew because I met him back when he was still in thr prison. I did Dad I tried but I can't win against my own feelings." Clarence said.
"He won't be beneficial to you, probably he will bring you your downfall." His father reminded him.
"I'm really sorry Dad, I will remove my name in our family registry I'll make sure to not cause you trouble or to stain your name." Clarence was about to get up.
"Are you really sure about this? Because the moment he said yes to you and you two become official there's no turning back." His father reminded him.
"I don't want to go to the place where he isn't there. Thank you Dad I love you."
Clarence walk towards the entrance but his father's next words made him stop. "Can I go with you to your next visit? I want to see my future son in law."
Clarence eyes grew wider. "You're joking right?"
"I have never joke about this kind of things son, you know me." Clarence run and gave his father a hug.
"Thank you Dad." Is the only thing that Clarence said.
"As long as you are happy, but I'm glad that you won't be marrying out of benefits." Clarence father pat him to his back.
"There's one thing you still needs to know." Clarence pulled back from the hug.
"What is it son?" The man asked.
"He's pregnant.... with my child." The Vice president didn't say anything instead he got on the phone and after some time he spoke.
"Yes it's me, find me a personal nurse that can take care of a pregnant Omega. Yes I want her to be a beta. No, no, yes, yes. Wait a second..." His father gaze towards his direction. "Does he have an OB-gyne?" Clarence nodded unable to utter any single word. "No he already has, I'll just talk to his doctor to know what are the vitamins prescribe to him.... No, for now that would be all, no find me good maternity clothes. It's good if we can get these things ready before his tummy shows. No, no yes I'll call you if I needed more. Make sure to deliver them in my house."
"I think you coming with me for a visit is a bad idea." Clarence whispered..

Aiden heave a sigh, he's looking at the door in front of him, he can't take in anymore. It has been weeks since that day and yet Lance still act cold towards him so Aiden made up his mind and decided to visit his husband's office which he doesn't do. People in the lobby were all looking at him. The receptionist gave him the utmost respect befitting to the wife of their CEO. He told them not to tell Lance so he got to Lance's office with ease and here he is standing in front of the door. He blow a deep breath before going in and there he is his handsome husband who's working seriously.
"Why are you here, shouldn't be you resting in our home?" Lance asked with a cold tone.
"Love, shouldn't it be time for us to fix this?" Aiden asked.
"Shouldn't have you kept this big secret from me and then we wouldn't be in this situation?" Lance answered his question with another one with looking at him, his focused is on the monitor of his laptop.
"Ok I'm sorry, I just don't want you sad and disappointed when this pregnancy didn't work. I just want to make sure that we will be able to hold on to this life growing inside me with assurance. Love listen to me I just don't want to give you and Lander a false hope. I'm really sorry if this hurt you, I didn't mean it." Aiden couldn't hold back his tears, he may be a tough person now but his weakness are the person he loves. "Hormones." Aiden wiped his tears away.
Lance got up from his seat and hug Aiden. "Ssshhhh.... don't cry. I'm no longer angry just.... just don't keep things from me again, even if it hurts me."
*********************
Robbie has been observing the new assistant of his boss and for some reason he can't quite pin point anything about her. She is clumsy and yet good in organizing things and cooking too but his guts is telling him that the woman has some ulterior motives. Their boss Jeffrey left to see some friends and he was told not to follow him which gave him time to spy on the new assistant Alicia but all she did was clean, do her job without her being told so and cook. There's nothing suspicious about her.
"Hey if you are done watching me how about just helping me with this." He heard the woman called him.
"What do you mean?" Robbie answered back being defensive.
"You have been following me all this morning, aren't you getting tired?" Alicia asked. "I know you don't trust me but you don't really have to display your disdain towards me. I'm still getting hurt with your actions too. Anyways I'm done with the soup here try this and tell me what you think."
Robbie eyed her suspiciously but he can't figure out his heart. He is happy calling and talking the woman he has been looking for everyday but Alicia is making him feel different things and he's hating it maybe that's also the reason he doesn't like her.
"Hey! Are you done day dreaming?" Alicia's finger snap brought him back to reality.
He took a spoonful of soup and another one and another one. "You don't have to say anything your action does speak for it. Hey may I ask why do you hate me so much? Well it's not like I'm very likable anyway so I won't be surprised with your response really."
"I don't know really, maybe because I don't trust you yet. You see there are a lot of people who wanted to infiltrate this house and you can't really trust anyone who lives here. So maybe that's why."
Maica laugh at him. "I'm not good at reading people that's why I always ended up with crappy one but I have good guts when it comes to people's emotions and I think that's not the reason why you hate me."
"How are you certain about that?" Robbie asked.
"My guts tells me so." Maica smiled at him.
"Have you attended any parties?" Robbie asked out of nowhere, he doesn't know why but he did.
Maica knows that if she answered truthfully her cover might blow so she lied. "No, who would invite me to that?"
"Yeah silly me, Robbie said. I better get back to my post now." Robbie got up but something fell down from his pocket. Maica pick it up and he wasn't expecting her reaction.
"Where did you get this?" Maica asked.
"That's mine. Give me that." Robbie snatched the bracelet from Maica's hands.
"Can I see that bracelet?" Robbie didn't gave her the bracelet, he went and leave her.
Maica's mind is now working on ways how to get her bracelet back.

Raven grunt when his father throw him the vase. "I told you to handle that fucking phantom and not make things worst by letting my package get caught by those fucking cunt! You useless fucking brat os a son if only it was you who died and not your brother then I wouldn't have this kind of problem! Do you know that Vladimir's fucking wife is threatening to kill us if this case continues to drag the name of their family?"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'll fix this Dad I promise I'll fix this." The old man let go of his son.
Raven took his phone out. "Have you found where that fucking lawyer's house is? Really, tell them to ready the car we will pay him a visit."
Raven look at the gigantic gate of the house or he must say a mansion. He looked at the address given to him to make sure but he was at the right place. He came to talk and bribe the lawyer but with that humongous gate that says a lot he figure that the man won't be bought by money.
"Sir you may come in." Say the voice from the speaker. The huge gate automatically opened. his car was led by a golf cart until they reached the mansion. A mansion that is standing in the middle of a land that he presume as big as a whole golf course or probably even bigger. He gave the key to one of the butlers and he came inside the house. It was huge and they have to walk a little before they could reach one of the receiving area of the house. He waited there for a couple of minutes before someone came in.
"I'm sorry, my son is not here but I guess I can entertain you for a while, while he drives his way here." Raven looked at the sophisticated lady. "I'm Tiana Harris mother of Terrence Harris. I was informed that you wanted to talk to my son?" Tian smiled at him while the servants pour the man with a cup of coffee.
"Yes I want to discuss things with him." Raven said politely.
"Didn't you know that we are a family of lawyers? I am a lawyer even before I got married I was already a lawyer. My husband and I met in the court. My husband actually came from the family of lawyers. So it wasn't a surprise when my sons become one too." Tiana said.
"I didn't know." Raven said.
"My children would rather stand on their own than depend on what their parents built that's why both of them made sure their names wouldn't be tied up to me and my husband even to my husband's family but I guess you have such good investigator to even locate where we live."
Raven's face became serious. "I won't beat around the bush, I'm offering your son money to sabotage the case."
Tiana's face remain calm. "Do we look like someone who needs money to you?"
"He will lose this case, there's no way he will win, no one wants to testify and the only person they have is someone who's a whore. Who do you think will believe that?"
"If he will lose then what are you doing here bribing us some money? Once they released their warrant of arrest against you, you won't be able to bail out until this case comes into conclusion. Maybe you are just afraid that more than your safety is for the Witchburn get to your bad side is that it?"
"The Witchburn won't stand still, you should be thanking that it is me who's visiting you not the Witchburn. What do you think will happen if the witness suddenly died? Or the lawyer? Do you think any other person will testify or will any other lawyer will get this case? I bet you wouldn't even try."
Tiana battle with her gaze, she didn't look away "We will see about that. No one threatens my family and get away with it, you have a filing debts to my family so I will see to it that you will pay to the last drop of it. If you have nothing more to say you can go now. I'll just relay the massage to my son."
"If your son won't pull out from this case then I can't guarantee your son's safety." Raven said before leaving.
"I like to see you try." Tiana responded back.
Tiana took her phone out and dialed her husband's number. "They are on the move."
(Did you catch some good stuff while they are at it?) Her husband asked.
"Yeah the kid is not thinking straight. Anyways I really want to hit that punk. My poor Chest, I can't believe that monster. My poor son in law." Tiana said.
(Hey let Terrence handle him, he badly want that man. Let out son deal with it.)
"Darling he threatened our son, do you think I also has a say to it, I'm a mother."
(Darling come on I know you are piss but let our son handle it. If he can't do it on his own then that's when we will enter the picture.)
Tiana pout as she listens to her husband. "Ok, ok. So how's my grandchildren? Can you borrow them from Tristan and take them here in our house? Also drive to Chester's house and borrow my grandchildren from him too, I miss all of them. Right I'll call Chester right away." Tiana said excitedly. She didn't even let her husband finished what he was about to say and hang up only to call Chester to borrow both of his sons.
