The next day. 7:15 in the morning, a white pagani huayra parked in front of the main building of Sunrise Entertainment. There were not a lot of people yet so the striking white luxurious car caught everyone's attention. Most people working there already knew whose car whose so when they saw the unfamiliar vehicle, all heads turned and anticipated whoever was going to step out of it. Unfortunately for them, the moment the driver's door side opened and Mo Tian Zi came out with his awfully simple attire yet still oozing with elegance, question marks popped on each of the viewer's heads.
There was no doubt Mo Tian Zi had a very handsome face and his body was also the most ideal type for every man out there. Over all his temperament just screams elite and filthy rich. However, no one knew his face and most certainly not his name. No matter how much people try to recall, they all simply couldn't tell aside from looking somewhat familiar but at the same time not. Surely he wasn't an actor under Sunrise Entertainment or anywhere else, not a model either, or an idol so perhaps he's a new talent, it's the only thing people could think of because if he was either of those then as someone as handsome and charismatic as Tian Zi, they would definitely be able to remember him.
Tian Zi walked around the passenger seat's door and carefully opened the door before stretching his hand to assist someone out and although not as striking as the him, Fyre's overall features also mesmerized everyone who's looking because despite how Fyre described himself, he's still after all an Omega and Omegas are known for their outstanding beauty. His small build contrasted Tian Zi's bigger size and it became almost natural to think the two looked together. At this point, the heads turning towards them increased and it was becoming somewhat uncomfortable.
"Shouldn't she be here waiting for you?" Tian Zi asked impatiently because just like Fyre, he also wasn't comfortable being stared at. He simply didn't like attention like Hanlu or could ignore it like Laotian—the reason why he always disappeared when there was a gathering being held. Additionally, although he doesn't voice it out, he didn't like other men staring at Fyre. It's always been like that ever since that it's a surprise he only managed to realize his feelings recently. Certainly, all his past actions were showing signs of possessiveness and probably obsession towards the Omega.
"Yeah and there she was," Fyre pointed, seeing Julie Walker walking close to them, however, Fyre slightly frown because it wasn't just Ms. Walker walking towards them but there's also three other men wearing a suit and for Fyre they looked like they're sitting in the highest chair in the company. But of course, he quickly pushed that thought away because he thought why would someone like that have the trouble to come to him like he was someone important. After all, he was just there to get that script and contract.
"Mr. Long, Mr. Mo, I apologized for being late... Anyway, this is the president of Sunrise Entertainment, Mr. Fredrick Colton. The movie producer, Phillip Phillips, and the movie director, Russel Coleman... Sir, this is Fyre Long and Mo Tian Zi," Julie introduced, extending her hand to point which was which and to him and Tian Zi.
Meanwhile, surprised that his guess was right, Fyre handshake the three while wondering why on earth would they come to him instead of him going to them. Also, Julie didn't even tell him that he was going to meet the three today that's why just like Tian Zi, he was just wearing simple and comfortable attire since after this, they will fly for at least 19 hours. He honestly thought he was just going to get that damn script and finalize the contract.
"Nice to meet you. But I didn't know I was going to meet you all today. I wasn't wearing appropriate attire," Fyre awkwardly expressed, looking back and forth at the said president of the company, Julie Walker. Just from this, he had a bad feeling. He's only an ordinary person but to have the three personally come to him, something must be up. He couldn't help but think that the special treatment was because of his affiliation with the Mos. The public don't know yet that he was now engaged to Tian Zi so he could just imagine how people would react if they learn about it because although Tian Zi wasn't as known as his older brothers, he is slowly growing his name and instead of the rumored black sheep of the Mo family, he's now an elite business owner and a growing asset of the country.
"It's very nice to finally meet you too, Mr. Long, Mr. Mo. And don't worry about it. We just came to greet you. Ms. Walker already explained to us your business today and we've already prepared it," the president of the company, Mr. Colton, said while the rest nodded in agreement making Fyre smile awkwardly. He still finds it weird that he's being treated this way and as Fyre looked at the three influential individuals, it didn't look like they were minding Tian Zi at all when in reality the Alpha should be the one they are gaining favor to, not him. They weren't trying to talk to Tian Zi or even looking at the Alpha to hint that they wanted to talk so it was a little bit confusing for Fyre who knew exactly why people were interested on him, which at first he hated, but now he kinda got used to it and no longer minded to some extent.
Meanwhile, from the president, the producer, and director's point of view, the reason why they didn't bother currying favor towards Mo Tian Zi was because Fyre would be enough. Everyone knew that the Mos are quite doting with their partners—maybe due to them having strong connection to their Alpha lineage—so if they got Fyre's good side, success will be guaranteed because although it wasn't publicly known, Julie Walker confirmed that the two are lovers. And it seemed like Fyre Long was quite favored by the family because they just discovered last night that their secret sponsor was Mo Empire, Mo Hanlu specifically who insisted on having Fyre being the main lead.
"Oh... t-thank you. I'll just take this then," Fyre hesitantly said, he didn't feel like it was right for him to just take the things he went for and leave just like that. After all, they will be his bosses soon. It would be very disrespectful of him to not do something for them. But then again, they're really in a hurry. Thankfully, noticing and feeling his discomfort, Tian Zi was quick to wrap his arms around his lover's waist and pulled him close to him. He wasn't supposed to middle in since this was Fyre's business but if his beloved needed him then he would come.
"If that's it then let's go? Everyone's waiting for us at the airport," Tian Zi suggested, not caring about the people in front of them because truth be told he still didn't want Fyre to accept the movie role but since the Omega was determined to accept it anyway, he decided to support him no matter what.
"But..." Fyre hesitated, looking at his—now—manager and the rest who quickly understood his dilemma and especially knowing that the young Alpha had been glaring at them since the beginning.
"Yeah, please don't mind us. You came here to get the script anyway, it was us who came without notice. Besides, Ms. Walker already knows your schedule so let's see and discuss your role next time. Please have a safe trip." Mr. Colton said with a friendly and professional smile. At this point, he's already on cloud nine. To think that his employee was able to secure Fyre Long, he knew good things will continue to happen from now on. After all, two of his major competitors are now in a huge scandal and now it looks like he'll be able to form a friendly relationship with the Mos.
"You heard him say. We can go now," Tian Zi insisted while slowly leading Fyre to the car. Fyre was still looking at the group with Julie Walker waving her hand at them and in the end he gave up and decided to let it be since they were indeed in a hurry.
"Will it really be okay?" Fyre mumbled, asking Tian Zi as soon as they were inside the car.
"Yeah, he said so himself. Don't mind it," Tian Zi assured and not long after, they drove away from the area and to the next destination as if they've never been there. Unfortunately, even though they barely had 10 minutes of talk, rumors will soon spread in the company about a new talent that the president and the top manager personally scouted.

Arriving at the airport, Fyre and Tian Zi held hands as they walked towards the private jet. Since everyone should already be inside, they were the only ones left for the flight.
"So, your brother also owns this one as well?" Fyre asked in amusement. The plane that's in front of them now was yet again a different one from the ones Fyre had already seen and not to mention even bigger.
"Yeah, Eldest brother liked aircraft the most but he's also beginning to take interest in boats," Tian Zi casually replied, helping Fyre up the stairs even when he didn't need to. Meanwhile, in Fyre's head, he wondered if collecting expensive things are what rich people call as a hobby because aside from that mini cars Tian Zi had in his room at Empire Hotel, he also owned the real ones that Fyre was genuinely curious whether the Alpha had even tried to ride it all just once or not. Furthermore, although Mo Hanlu was not into collecting, he had a weird taste when it came to infrastructural designs and had a special liking for French renaissance themes.
"But wouldn't it be more expensive flying this thing than using the public transportation?"
"Well yeah, but we bring so many people, not just us so it's necessary. Also, this is more convenient and safer since we don't know what's going to happen," Tian Zi explained and reminded Fyre that it wasn't just them going on this trip, there's also the maids, butlers, and most importantly security personnel. Which Fyre understood right away as he nodded, because it is true that there had been so many things that had happened when they let their guard down just a little bit.
"Oh and... we get to have a little private room of our own too," Tian Zi leaned closer as he whispered before smirking mischievously. Since he was a step behind Fyre into the stairs, their height leveled perfectly making it easy for the Alpha to pull his lover close to his body where Fyre's behind could touch somewhere anyone could misunderstand. Fyre immediately blushed, he knew Tian Zi was just joking but he couldn't help imagining it.
"S-Stop that!" Fyre whined quickly, running away and towards the entrance where two stewards were waiting for them and had seen and heard the whole thing even if they didn't want to. Fyre blushed even deeper and was forced to ignore the greetings that were sent to him as he was rushing inside to greet everyone. Thankfully, the two stewards understood and just watched the Alpha run after his escaping lover.
"Hey, I was just joking..." Tian Zi called with a chuckle, running after Fyre. With this since they are both inside, the pilot was quickly informed and after a short while, the pilot spoke through the speaker announcing that they were about to take off.
