Chapter 70: Chapter 70

Sebastian walked out of his office and saw Nicholas talking to Ken while Zeno was in the kitchen speaking with Julia.

Before he even paid attention to what Zeno was doing with Julia, he shut his eyes and stood in front of his office door for a few seconds.

If he wanted to appear normal in front of everyone, he had to get his jealousy in check; if not he’d just end up snapping at everyone.

He couldn’t believe he was getting angry at Julia for simply speaking to Zeno

Something was wrong with him, and he knew it.

Zeno was making him feel things he’d never felt before insecure, scared...scared of losing something, someone...Zeno.

He was no longer comfortable with having to fight those feelings; he wanted to find a way to either let them out or suppress them. It was getting out of hand.

He took a deep breath and opened his eyes but he clenched his fist in the next second.

Why was Julia holding Zeno’s hand?

He marched forward immediately, if anyone was holding Zeno’s hand, it should be him.

He walked past Ken and Nicholas, walking right into the kitchen, and stood right next to Zeno.

Julia instinctively moved back from Zeno, causing Zeno to look beside him and see Sebastian’s cold face staring at Julia.

"So, I’ll just get you the flour powder and send you the recipe in your dm," Zeno continued, speaking to Julia as if he hadn’t seen Sebastian.

Julia nodded, not feeling like continuing their conversation anymore.

"Yay! Dad, I’m going out with Nicholas!" Ken announced.

Zeno turned to Ken in confusion.

’What’s Nicholas up to?’ He muttered in his head.

Sebastian didn’t even bother to turn to Ken. "No, you’re not," He replied.

Nicholas chuckled and lowered himself on the chair beside Ken.

"Come on, Sebastian, let the boy live a little. It’s just a park; he’d get to meet and play with other kids; if you want to make sure he’s safe, you can send your bodyguard with him; he’d be safe with Zeno," Nicholas convinced.

Julia felt the atmosphere shift in the kitchen; she was feeling something between Sebastian and Zeno, but she couldn’t say what it was.

Sebastian looked at Zeno for a second and shrugged, "If he’s going, then I’m going..." Sebastian replied, he gave Zeno a knowing look before he walked a little away from him.

"I knew you couldn’t stay back if Ken was going," Nicholas chuckled.

But, only Zeno knew that Sebastian wasn’t talking about Ken.

Zeno knew Sebastian was talking about him; he didn’t want to let Zeno go out with Nicholas again.

Nicholas had just used Ken as an excuse to get Zeno out with him again; he never knew that Sebastian would agree so easily.

"So, when are we going to this park?" Sebastian questioned.

"Now!" Ken replied excitedly.

"Yeah...now," Nicholas nodded.

Nicholas wished Sebastian had refused; at least he would have gotten another special day with Zeno.

Sebastian nodded. He turned to walk past the kitchen from the side where Zeno was standing, and somehow, Julia had her eyes glued in their direction. As Sebastian walked past Zeno, the sound of glass breaking was heard all over the living room.

Julia had just witnessed Sebastian playfully touch Zeno’s ass as he walked past him and Zeno had seen her looking and knew that it was the reason she let the glass fall from her hand out of shock.

He, too was shocked. He never expected Sebastian to act that way with people around him. Didn’t he think anyone would see him?

Everyone stared at Julia, especially Sebastian.

He was no fool, he knew why Julia dropped the glass.

He fixed a hard gaze on her, silently daring her to say a word.

"I’m, I’m so sorry, my hand was wet; I’m really sorry," Julia immediately bent over to pick up the glass shreds.

Zeno was about to move toward and lend his help when he felt Sebastian’s hand on his arm, dragging him back, "You should get Ken ready to go out," He ordered with a secret smirk.

Zeno suddenly narrowed his eyes at Sebastian; he shockingly realized that Sebastian had touched his behind on purpose; he wanted Julia to see it.

He stepped away from Sebastian and walked out of the kitchen without a word.

"Come on, Ken, it’s time to dress up," He held the boy’s hand and helped him down from the chair, leading him up the stairs without speaking to anyone.

He was pissed.

Why does Sebastian feel that it is okay for him to make their relationship known to whoever he sees fit without his permission and then go around and expect him to keep it hidden on his part like he was some skeleton in a wardrobe?

He recalled him doing the same thing in front of Ida that night at Darren’s club; no doubt he wanted Ida to know too; did Sebastian, for once, wonder if he wanted anyone to know at all?

As Zeno disappeared up the stairs, Sebastian moved closer to Julia, who was washing her hands under the running water in the sink; he paused beside her and asked in a very low and dangerous.

"Everything alright, Julia?" He placed a hand behind her on the sink.

"Y-yes, sir...boss. Everything’s fine," She replied in a quiet voice.

Sebastian nodded, "Just checking on you, be safe," He patted her shoulder before walking out of the kitchen.

Julia nodded, her heart skipping fast in fear.

She knew that she had just been warned, and that hand pat on her shoulder was a gentle reminder to be quiet or face wrath.

"So, you’re really coming with us?" Nicholas questioned Sebastian as he neared him.

"Yes," Sebastian patted Nicholas’ arm and walked past him, heading straight for the stairs.

"Right..." Nicholas muttered, sitting on the chair.

Inside Ken’s room, Zeno was standing beside his wardrobe, watching the boy select what he wanted to wear by himself.

"How about this?" Ken asked as he held up a pair of blue shorts for Zeno to see.

Zeno shook his head, "It’s kind of cold outside; how about full pants," He suggested.

"Fine...just a second," Ken turned to his wardrobe again and picked a pair of black pants and a black shirt, "These?" He stared at Zeno in expectation.

Zeno nodded, even though he would have loved to comment on why Zeno’s outfit was almost all black, just like his father’s but it was none of his business, so he just said, "Go put them on," He opened a door beside his wardrobe and made way for him to enter his walk-in closet.

"Don’t peek," Ken pointed at Zeno before he shut his door.

Zeno chuckled and stepped back from the door, wondering how Sebastian produced such a humorous and kind child while he was the complete opposite.

He was lost in thought when he suddenly felt those strong and familiar arms around his waist.

"What’s up, baby girl?" Sebastian moved in behind Zeno and whispered in his ear.

Zeno felt ticklish and wanted to move away from him but Sebastian held him closer to his front and tighter.

"I asked, what’s up, baby girl?" Sebastian whispered again.

Zeno wanted to move away from him because he had just discovered that Sebastian’s touch had a way of melting away his anger, and he wasn’t done being angry at him, Sebastian should understand what mutual respect was all about.

In as much as he’s the boss, the boss’ also respects their employee; it’s not a written rule; it’s one of the universal human rules, and it is only right to treat others how you want them to treat you.

"Let go of me..." Zeno said in a low voice, placing his hands on Sebastian’s around his waist and trying to remove it from him.

"Shh...stop squirming...it’s turning me on," Sebastian bit Zeno’s earlobe, sucking it into his mouth.

"Ahh...Sebastian...there’s - ahh... a boy in the - stop...room..." Zeno fought the urge to fall back against Sebastian and let him carry on his sweet torture on him.

"Chill, baby, he’s got problems fixing his pants...we got time," Sebastian kissed the side of Zeno’s neck and moved his hands up his chest, pinching his nipples through his shirt.

"God... you’re so perfect," Sebastian whispered huskily.

Zeno had his mouth opened like a fish as he breathed heavily; he managed to hold one of Sebastian’s hands and removed it from his chest, and then he removed the other one, too.

He slowly turned to Sebastian, locking his eyes with his the moment he faced him.

"What do you think you’re doing?" Zeno questioned with a slight frown, trying to control his breathing, Sebastian had a way of tuning his heart to whatever frequency he wanted it to be.

Sebastian smirked, slowly walking closer to Zeno. "Tell me you didn’t like it and I’ll leave," He whispered, drawing Zeno close by the waist.

Zeno bit his lips and looked away.

That would be a lie because he did like it, in fact, he wanted more, but he would never say that.

Sebastian placed his hand on the side of Zeno’s face and brought it back to face him, he used his thumb to draw out Zeno’s bottom lips from between his teeth then proceeded to place his lips very close to Zeno’s, "They’re mine for me to bite, baby girl," He whispered and sucked Zeno’s bottom lip into his mouth, gently biting it between his teeth and slowly releasing it.

"You liked that?" He asked Zeno, whose eyes had turned lusty and misty.

Zeno was speechless; he shut his eyes and forced himself to focus; he was getting that spontaneous feeling again, the feeling that wanted him to believe that he meant more to Sebastian, a feeling that made him think that Sebastian did stare at him like in those paintings.

He was getting ahead of himself like he always did.

"Just stay away from me, Sebastian, unless it’s time to do what’s on the contract, I don’t want all these little moments between us anymore, please," Zeno was about to step back but Sebastian caught his hand and was about to reply him when Ken’s walk-in-closet door opened and the little guy walked out to see his father holding Zeno around the waist.

"Dad, are you hugging Zeno?" Ken blinked as he stared at them.
