Sean moved closer to Luiz while pulling Chloe and Clarisse closer together with them. His face was full of worry and confusion. He had no idea what to.

  "What's the matter with you?" Clarisse asked with a deep frown on her face. "Are you alright?"

  "I'm fine." Sean replied. "But, is it just my imagination or are we being followed?"

  Luiz looked at him and stopped for a minute without looking around, pretending to have no idea of this matter. "Sean, which person have you been observing?" He asked in whisper, enough for his classmates and for the guards to head.

  Sean licked his lower lip and moved closer. "Do you see that man with a brown leather jacket outside the shoe store? The one with a white shirt who looked quite handsome?"

  "Well, yeah. I can see him. And he doesn't look like a stalker to me."

  "Maybe I am just overthinking things." Sean responded while scratching the back of his head. "Let's just forget about what I said."

  "No, we cannot." Luiz mumbled and turned to the bodyguards that Stefan assigned to him. "Be vigilant at all times. I don't want anything to happen to me or my classmates. My sister will be worried."

  "Yes, sir." The guards nodded and continued to look after Luiz and his classmates.

  Natsu wasn't planning to abduct Luiz as of the moment. He was still waiting for the right opportunity to do that. Right now, he was just secretly following him wherever they go and he has no idea that Sean already found him suspicious which put him under the radar of the bodyguards.

  Back to Cayenne she already arrived in the company but she didn't come out of the car. She just waited for Stefan to come out instead of going up to get him.

  "Have you been waiting for a long time?" Stefan asked the moment he stepped inside the car and saw his wife.

  "Not really. I just got here."

  "How's your afternoon? I didn't find anything strange aside from Ms. Rule who approached you out of nowhere."

  "Nothing extraordinary has happened in the whole afternoon but I did get into a small fight with that woman. I don't understand their family at all. We're already living a good life and they just popped out without any warning signs, destroying my peace."

  Stefan pulled her close and hugged her. "Don't worry everything will be fine."

  "Hn. As long as you're with me, I know that nothing bad will happen to me."

  The two of them started their sweet talks once again, ignoring their driver who was silently driving the car.

  The next day, Cayenne visited Stefan's family which delighted them but Stefan didn't come along with her. Ever since he found his maternal relatives, he never went to visit his father and grandfather. He didn't want to see them. He was back to being strangers with them.

  "Yen, welcome home." Magnus greeted her happily and gave her a hug. He was looking behind him but Stefan didn't appear at all. "Your husband didn't come with you?"

  "He's very busy dad. He said he'll visit sometimes when he's got sometimes."

  "You went on a trip but you excluded us." Magnus commented which put Cayenne in a tight spot. Seeing her expression, Magnus smiled at her. "I'm just saying. I'm not jealous or anything. I'm so glad that he's having fun."

  "Well, he's doing his best to relax from time to time." Cayenne replied as she walked inside the villa which was now named under Stefan but they never really stayed in this place. "Where's grandpa?"

  "He's currently having tea with his friends at the back garden. Come, I'll introduce you to them."

  Magnus led Cayenne to the back garden and as soon as Ferdinand saw her, he was so happy that he stood up from his seat and walked towards her. Magnus wanted to introduce Cayenne as part of their family but Ferdinand took this role away from him and did the introduction.

  Obviously, Ferdinand's friends were also from the business circle and they were talking about their sons and grandsons. Now that she visited them at this time, the topic shifted to her and her plans of getting a baby. Stefan wasn't around this time but that didn't mean he had no idea of what they were talking.

  Few minutes later, Magnus received a message from his son, telling him not to pressure Cayenne about having kids. He didn't marry a birthing machine and he wasn't in a hurry.

  Reading his message, Magnus' mouth twitched and he showed it to his father. When Ferdinand saw the message, he stopped talking about having great-grandchildren and just talked about sports instead.

  Cayenne had lunch with them and after lunch, she left the villa to go and buy some books for herself. She will be studying again and she needed to have some refresher to make sure that she won't be lagging behind the class.

  After buying books, she bought a gift for Rissy and kept it while waiting for her birthday to come. She didn't even inform Chris about it.

  When evening came, Stefan came home with a report regarding the Dragon gang which was under the Rule family and the Dragon gang which was involved with the huge crime incident last year.

  The Dragon gang was indeed connected but when Jean Nikko Rule took over the branch in City C, they suddenly cut off ties with the original organization. And even after doing that, he didn't change the name of the group. Thus, whatever crimes he did or whatever illegal things he did, it will be under the name of the Dragon gang while he himself gets out of this matter unscathed.

  He wasn't in the list of the people under the organization as well which made it difficult for Tristan to look into him a year ago. Now that he was resurfaced and was threatening Cayenne's existence, they have finally made an ample preparation to take them down.

  Just a single wrong move and everything will be over.

  Cayenne's days, even though she wasn't working, she was still very busy with her life. They could rarely see her at home and even if she's home, she'll be facing her books or other stuff that she could do. But still, she makes sure that she gets to spend time with her family and specially with her husband.

  Stefan was also getting used to her busy schedules.? She was even busier than him. Sometimes, she'd leave the house to meet with his maternal family, checking on their status specially their health. Sometimes, her friends would come and visit her at home. Sometimes, it's her father and Ingrid who would come to look for her. There were times that she'd leave to practice self-defense with Jillyanna and she would also go and spend time with the kids in Justin's home.

  Even with all the things she did on daily basis, she looked happy and fulfilled which was why Stefan never stopped her. He would just constantly remind her of her safety because that's what matters to him. As long as she comes home safe and sound, he wouldn't make a fuss to whatever she's been doing.

  Several days later, Kyle and Luiz were finally called to have their photoshoot. Kath was also with them since her brother allowed her to come along. Kai wasn't really the one who will supervise the photoshoot but he promised his sister that he will look after them in the studio.

  Kyle and Luiz were just about to leave the house when David came. He was visiting Cayenne and Stefan.

  "Good luck with your modeling." Cayenne cheered her brothers and these were the words that David heard as soon as he came inside.

  "Your brothers are really modeling? Can I be their make-up artist?"

  "I don't have that much money to pay your service fee." Cayenne retorted while walking towards him and gave him a kiss on his cheeks. "How are you?"

  "I'm doing so much fine. I feel like I have freed myself from a rusty shackle. But anyway, can't I be their make-up artists? I'll give you 20% discount."

  "I thought you're visiting us." Cayenne replied while watching her brothers put on their shoes.

  "I am but I have changed my mind. How about we go and watch their photoshoot while we chat?"

  "Is that even allowed?"

  "Yup. With me here, there's nothing impossible. So, will you allow me to become their make-up artist today?"

  "Fine. Fine. I'll go and tell my husband first. I'll just bring him along if necessary."

  So, when Stefan agreed, the five of them left the house with the bodyguards following them. Since David wanted to chat, he just hitched a ride with Cayenne and Stefan, leaving his own car in their property. It's been quite sometime since he last saw the couple and their whole family because of what happened between him and Chris. Now that he's over with him, he can face them again without feeling awkward.

  Luiz was also happy to see that David was back to his cheerful self. He might not have experienced it but with all the things he observed and heard, homosexuals always have it hard when it comes to love. And right now, all he could do was hope that David will find someone who will truly care for him.
