******************************
When Aiden heard the news that his sister in-law is back in the country after almost two months of staying there he immediately canceled his appointment and schedules. He wanted to visit George and he waited till the nurse gave him the signal to enter, Aiden went ahead to where George's office is and he noticed a patient passing by him that is probably George's patient. By the stature of that person it seems that he's an omega but Aiden couldn't smell not even a hint of pheromones that belongs to an omega that a fellow omega can sense even when they are already marked by their alphas. Aiden went on and enter his sister in-law's office and there he saw her looking at the monitor so intently.
"Hey you just got back and the first place you went to is the hospital." Aiden greeted.
"Ai!!! I missed you!" George got up and hugged him.
"Both you and my brother are so workaholic. I don't know how can you manage raising your daughter with this busy schedules of you two. Not to mention you two going back and forth overseas in the past year."
George gave Aiden a sweet smile. "Don't worry we won't be going out of the country, I hope at least once things are settled here we won't be. George went back here 3 months ago and I just have to wrapped things there before I settled here." George explained.
"It looks like the patient earlier has a quite urgent case." Aiden said.
"Ow you saw him. That's Mrs. Choi, he's pretty right?" Aiden nodded his head in agreement even though he wasn't able to see the Omega's face clearly he can agree with George that the omega is pretty. His curl red orange hair that reach to his shoulders makes him look like a girl, a hair color that compliments his pale complexion not to mention his cherry pink lips.
"Yes he is very pretty." Aiden agreed.
"But that's the only thing I can tell you about him, patient and Doctor confidentiality remember?" George said.
"Yeah I know, I just asked." Aiden said in defeat.
"So what brings you here? Don't tell me that you are pregnant again? You should practice birth spacing. Aiden it only has been a year since you gave birth!" George voice's is raising and Aiden knows he needs to stop it, he remembered that Chester came out of his sister in-law's office almost in tears. He and Terrence were scolded over the fact that Chester got pregnant months after just giving birth.
George is a very strict Ob-GYN they know that the later only wants the best for her patients that's why she's not holding back in scolding them.
"I'm not pregnant so you should stop now! Can't I just miss you? And why is my brother not visiting you here?" Aiden asked
"He picked me up in the airport." George said.
"I'll be going now, I'll just see you at home, Dad is inviting us over dinner." Aiden informed his sister in-law.
"Yeah I'll tell George." Aiden walked out of his sister in-law's office.
Aiden is glad that the couple is finally settling down in their mother land. Almost two years ago the whole family flies to another country to help people who have less. They every now and then come back and forth just to visit but they don't really stay that long probably just a month or so but he's glad that the family of his brother is finally settling back, he can finally see more of them now.
***************************
George sighed as she watched his brother in-law. Shen then heard knocks from her door then the door opened and her husband went inside.
"I heard that Ai was here?" George asked.
"Yes. He was just here."
"Did he see him?" Her husband asked.
"I think he didn't recognize him." George answered back.
"So how is his condition?" Her husband asked.
"He's ok now, the operation is a success however his heat will only come to him naturally only when he's near his husband." George explained. "How about him?" George asked.
"No improvement at all. I was able to stabilize the bullet in his brain." Her husband answered.
"We tried everything and the close thing we can managed is to wake him up." George said.
"I know and that is plenty enough, him surviving after getting shot thrice in the head is already a luck but him waking up I think is a miracle considering we weren't able to get the last bullet." George husband's sighed.
"I know, the bullet got stuck in a very dangerous region of his head, if it won't be removed by someone who is talented in this field he might die. That's why we decided to just leave it be." George agreed.
"But it needs to be removed somehow, the real enemy here is the time." George's husband sighed.
"I don't know how long can we hold that bullet. Once it accidentally move he might die." George said "This is the reason why we brought them back right?"
"Dang it!!! How did we end up in this situation?"
"Well you can't say no when that nurse that you're friends with contacted you." George reminded him again.
"But the man he's with is a criminal."
"A criminal who did the right thingâŠ.. Do you think that your friends friend will do the operation?" George asked her husband.
"We can only hope for, but if he won't then we only have one option and that is for Herra's brother do the operation. I just hope that he won't turn it down."
"Yeah me too."
*********************
"So how was it?" The woman who's nursing a a grown man asked the newly arrived person.
"The operation was a success."
"So what's your plan now Jeff?"
"Well those Doctors have to try and convinced that friend of theirs or else we won't have any chance than to try it with your brother." Jeffrey sighed.
"Hey why not come directly at my brother?"
Jeffrey glared at the lady. "You have keep on pushing me towards that brother of yours. I told you I'm married Herra." Jeffrey sighed.
"He doesn't even know that you are still alive, if I know he probably have already been pounding every available hole in every place he visited also just in case he doesn't want you back." Herra said suggesting it. "My brother was also broken-hearted. You see I don't even know the whole story he just doesn't want to tell me."
"When things are done and I'm sure about his safety I'll go back to my husband."
"What if he already has someone." Herra made and assumption. Jeffrey who's sharpening his combat knife stopped with what he's doing.
"Hhhmmm it won't be a hard question at all, I'll talk to that personâŠ."
"Talk or more like threat?" Herra tried to correct but Jeffrey just glared at her.
"Either way if she refused to my reasonable demand then I'll just kill that person."
"What you want is what you always get." Herra whispered that didn't escape Jeffrey's ears.
"I only want one thing and that is to be with him again, regardless if he still loves me or not."
Herra squint her eyes on Jeffrey. "You're obsessed, good thing you told me that I at least still have a chance to back out on my plans in letting you meet my baby brother."
Jeffrey laughed. "How is he?" Jeffrey asked.
"He calmed down now. His head was hurting which is also the reason why he throw a fit." Herra explained.
"So where's AJ?" Jeffrey asked.
"Asleep, he's been looking for you. His 2nd birthday is almost there, so what's your plan?" Herra asked.
" I don't know, do you think is it already safe to have a birthday party for my baby?" Jeffrey asked.
Even before Herra could answered they heard a loud cry. "He's awake." Herra said with a smile.
Jeffrey walked inside the room and after a minute of two he came back with a child in his arms. "Don't cry or you'll wake your mama up."
"Mam-mam?" The kid asked.
"Yes Mam-mam, Dada nam-nam." The baby point the place where all his bottles are being kept.
"Is my AJ hungry?"
AJ with a teary eyes pout and say "Hanggie."
"Yes of course, go with Auntie, Dada will just prepare your milk." Jeffrey said.
He opened the fridge where they are keeping the milk they got from Axel, yes Axel. It was a miracle baby born prematurely when Axel was still asleep. The people who saw Axel's condition gave up the hope that the child will be able to live until Axel's water broke at 6 months when Axel was not even stable yet. The child was so small, its not even crying. The first week was a torture to them. The George couple told Jeffrey to talk to the child. They both said that it helps in lifting the child's spirit to keep on fighting. It was like Jeffrey became the child's mother and for Jeffrey that child is like his own child too. How he wish he could have one too that he can call his own but even when that time comes he knew that AJ will always have a special place in his heart as his son.
After drinking his milk and playing the child fell asleep. He move to the other room where the beautiful and serene sleeping Axel is laying peacefully on his bed. He sit beside him and brush his hair that gotten a little longer, he's planning in cutting it short to avoid Axel from pulling his own hair when he's frustrated.
"I thought he can be better but we tried everything. I thought Doctor Miller will be able to bring him back since what happened to him is almost the same as what happened to his baby brother." Herra said.
"But each and every everyone's trauma is different from one another." Jeffrey said. "We are still lucky that he just went back to his 16 year old self. Axel come out of that 16 year old self of yours, we need you, AJ needs you"
Herra looked at the Omega, she sighed at the scene before her eyes. Whenever Axel sleeps that's the thing the Jeffrey keeps on repeating, hoping that Axel will be able to hear him.
It has been almost two years when she accidentally stumbled upon these two omegas in front of her. Jeffrey was holding a gun while he was carrying the bloody body of Axel. At first Jeffrey threatened to kill her if she wouldn't try to heal Axel. She still can't believed that she was able to give first aid to someone who was shot four times, three in the head and one to his belly. Herra then begged Jeffrey to let her meet with her colleague and that's when she talked to Doctor George Miller. The man, he saw the man before in the hospital where Rion was confined and when Aiden was there, then it hit Jeffrey that Aiden and George are relatives. He quickly raised his gun towards the Doctor. Herra can still remember up to this day the things that Jeffrey told the Doctor.
"I know that you know me, I don't know your relationship with Aiden but before you tell to the authorities that I'm alive please save him, everything that happened was all my fault." Jeffrey with his dirty clothes, face and dishelve hair begged the Doctor in front of him. "Once he's ok then I'll willingly come with you."
"No need, it is our sworn duty to help those who are in need be it a criminal or not. Take him to this address, I have every equipment to operate someone." Jeffrey took Axel there and in there they where able to successfully remove two bullets. Things where getting chaotic and the chance that they will be able to get found out is high and the George couple wouldn't going to let that happen. It was those two who arranged everything. Jeffrey didn't got a hard time going out of the country because he start using his surname Choi and Axel as Parker.
"So what's the plan now?" Jeffrey woke up from his reverie when Herra talked.
"Now that we are back, I'm going to finish what I started. I heard Victor is still alive and so as Raven. I'll kill them one by one. I'm not as merciful as they are." Jeffrey said and true to his words Jeffrey did, that night he visited the jails where the big bosses that are involved with Victor's crime are imprisoned. The news when morning came created so much noise that it shook the whole country. There were no trace of the crime, it was done very clean.
"You didn't waste any time." Herra said
"I want to go back to my husband." Jeffrey simply answered. I waited for my injuries to heal, I waited for Axel to wake up and I'm still waiting for the time I'll be able to completely clean this thing up. I can't go back if there are people who's just waiting and if they knew that I'm alive then they might use the same dirty trick again that made Axel like that. I can't risk it so until everything is all wrapped up then I'll wait and watch him from a distance.
"So have you visited him?" Herra asked.
Jeffrey showed her a bright smile then he raised the used shirt of his husband which he got.
"Why did you take something with you?" Herra tried to snatched the shirt away.
"I'm just borrowing it, once his scent is gone I'll bring it back to him and then take another one."
"You completely lost it, you have gone crazy!" Herra shouted.
"I don't know how authentic the information I have got but Raven and Victor have died. According to the records kept, Raven died when inmate fight broke out just like how his father died and Victor died because of the multiple complications brought by when I run him over with my car and left there to get burn alive." Jeffrey informed.
"So did you get you answers?" Herra asked.
"Yeah and they are authentic, it seems that his mother and sister left the country."
*************************
"Terrence! Any news?" Aiden asked.
"No, it was done cleanly not even a trace. This baffles me, Victor and Raven just died last week and this suddenly happened." Terrence whispered.
"Do you think someone wants them down?" Terrence looked around.
"Yeah seems like it."
"Dang it! So all those trials are for nothing?!" Aiden shouted.
"The trials have played a significant role, we have shown this country that justice can be served equally to both Omegas, Betas and Alphas. Those who killed them wants to put justice in their own hand." Terrence explained, "the killing was done quickly with exact precision, it means that the killer didn't kill to enjoy killing, the killer killed for a job."
Ten prisons and everyone who has anything to do with Victor's case died and not a single trace, Terrence is suspecting a large group or a highly trained assassins. Terrence took the bottle of tequila and drink it in one go. He doesn't know anyone who is highly trained to kill aside from people like him or Jules. Terrence poured himself again and drink it in one go.
"Woah! Hold it there cowboy! We don't want to carry a very drunk Terrence back to your kitten." Henry took the glass that is full up to the brim.
Terrence looked at Jules, he sighed a couple of times while shaking his head.
"What is it?" Jules asked.
"How are the kids?" Terrence looked at Jules with so much anticipation.
"They are fine."
"How much do they know?" Terrence asked directly.
"Pretty much everything that is above the basic, but Author is the one who has a lot of knowledge, no more like it is his gift..." Jules went silent for a while. "Now it got me thinking, what kind of training did those kids had for them to be that skilled at a very young age?"
"How about Axel? How skillful is he?" Terrence asked.
"I don't know but the first time I met him I knew he's no ordinary, I know he's strong aside from that fact he's also smart." Jules answered.
"You, how about Jeffrey?" Terrence asked Henry
"I don't really know⊠All I know is that he's strong, I've seen him fight people at the bar or so and it seems like he's not even sweatingâŠ.. why are you even asking this? They have been long dead and gone." Henry said as a matter of fact. He took the glass of drink and finished it he went home drunk. Terrence and Jules were kind enough to take him home and when he's inside his own home he lay down his heavy, tired and drunk body on the coach. He's too tired, maybe if it weren't for Jeffrey's wish and resolve to help the others and if it weren't for all the money and fortune he left Henry would have chose to follow Jeffrey but he didn't. He doesn't want to be a disappointment. He wanted his wife to be proud of him even when he's gone now. So he just bottled up all the pain and sorrow he's feeling so he can fulfill Jeffrey's wish and that is for him to fulfill his dream of building his own hospital and help many. Henry close his eyes and start imagining his wife's face, his scent, his skin and his lips, for some reason he can really smell his scent, it is so palpable that it makes it seem so real, so intoxicating. Then he felt a warm lips touched his lips, Henry knows it is just a drunken dream just like one of his drunken dreams that seem so real. He doesn't want to hold back, even if it is just a dream he wants to feel him. So Henry opened his blurry eyes in the midst of darkness and start kissing back the Henry in his dream. The Pheromones is getting thicker and it makes Henry go into a rut. Henry thought that what is happening is just a result of his rut and drunken state but he doesn't want to stop, he let himself drown into his lustful dream of making love with his wife.
When Henry woke up he's already in his bed. He tried to think hard on when did he went to bed, he dismissed the thought and just settled with the fact that he must have sleep walk towards his bed to sleep. He wash his face and looked himself in the mirror and laughed silently, he thought that the he who's in his dream must have been happier than he who's in reality because he was able to be with his wife. Henry stopped thinking about what happened, he knows it will only bring him sadness and such emotions have no place in his life right now, because there are a lot of people depending on him.
**************************
Herra watched Jeffrey walk inside their house limping. "Why are you limping?"
Jeffrey glared at her. "Non of your business!"
Herra just laughed, "Anyways I'll be visiting my brother so I'll leave these two babies in your care for the mean time. My brother has two hospitals, one in town and the other one in a remote island. I heard that he will be there for 3 days so I'll be visiting him there."
"When are you going?" Jeffrey asked.
"3 weeks from now, I'll also take the time to talk to him about Axel's operation. I'll wait for the Georges' friends decision if they will take Axel's case if they won't then I'll talk to my brother this can be a perfect opportunity since the island is a safe place to talk things that are as sensitive as this. I already told the Georges and they both agreed, my brother will be our plan B." Jeffrey nodded.
"Will you go out tonight?" Herra asked.
"Probably not, I want to rest." Jeffrey said.
"Hey, why can't you just start over again? You won't need to clean up so many mess if you will forget him and start over with someone with a new name. My brother is very much available." Herra offered again.
Jeffrey just laughed at the woman. "I don't want anyone else, besides you told me that your brother is still mourning. If a person has been mourning for that long it only means he's not ready to let anyone else in his life or probably he no longer has any plans in letting anyone else in his life."
Herra watched Jeffrey get inside the room. She didn't know that she'll get this far helping three strangers. When she helped them it was purely out of fear then pity and now because they became like her family. She pity the two omegas, she learned that Jeffrey was the whistle blower who backed up Rion Dunst statements with a much shocking and dark confessions to the crimes committed by his brother's company. He's the one who's making the most of transactions so if the authorities knows that he's still alive he will immediately be put to trial again and probably will get the highest punishment, for some reason it seems that the omega was ready, they had no problem getting out of the country. Jeffrey's name in his passport is Jeffrey Choi, she's kind of amazed by how authentic the passport and ID's are, even with Axel's who's name is Axel Parker. She doesn't know how and when did Jeffrey prepared it but she admire how Jeffrey took care both Axel and AJ. He became a brother or Axel and became a mother to AJ.
Jeffrey went inside his room, he took off his shirt and there he saw all the love marks created by his own husband. He looked at the back of his palm where a bit mark is still vividly embedded. Jeffrey sighed, he just want to kiss his husband but how can a simple kiss leads to them making love and not just once but twice. He can still feel the wetness of his core, not because he's horny but because of his husband's seed. "Damn it!" Jeffrey whispered. He took an after pill specially after Henry knot him. It wasn't enough that he got pounded by an Alpha that is a dominant when that place wasn't visited by anything for almost 2 years. The pain was real but it became more excruciating when Henry knotted him. "It's ok, I took an after pill and it's not even my heat." Jeffrey keeps on thinking about what happened last night and a smile appeared on his lips, he can now verify that his husband still loves him. Henry keeps on whispering his name and keeps telling him that he loves him and for Jeffrey that is more than enough. "I need to wait a little, once these are all over I'll come back, so hang in there Darling."
When Jeffrey got out of his room he saw Herra in the kitchen peeling fruits. Jeffrey sit on the island counter and took a whole apple and bite into it.
"Hey Jeff, I have been meaning to ask. How come your passport looks so authentic?" Herra asked.
"Because it is, I'm using my married name." Jeffrey answered calmly.
"Wait what?!"
"The authorities doesn't know that Jeffrey Witchburn is married. When I got married I used my original name before I became a Witchburn so basically it wasn't Jeffrey Witchburn is the person who got married to my husband but the me before I got the Witchburn surname, then I used my married name. No one knows that I'm married. Axel on the other hand has been long married before me. I don't think our husbands have any clues about it because chances are there might be people out there who has the same names as us. Anyways it was also because I pulled some strings and my hacking skills."
"So you husband is a Choi?" Herra asked.
Jeffrey nodded.
"Well I'm a Choi as well, well there are many Chois' out there, it is a very common Surname." Herra said.
"I know, anyways I'm glad that I got married before things like this went down, I mean it wasn't part of the plan but it helped me greatly."
"You look completely different from when I first met you. You look so much more beautiful with your natural hair than when I first saw you." Herra complemented.
"My husband told me before that he wanted to see me with my natural hair. Hey may I ask, you're an alpha and your brother is an alpha so why are you trying to link me and your brother together? After knowing my past, aren't you feeling gross somehow?" Jeffrey asked, the Apple he has been eating is almost finished.
"I know the real you so I know that you are a good person. My brother was hurt by the person he loves so I want someone whom I can entrust my brother's heart. I saw how deep can you love those people you care about and I know my brother will be in good hands if it is you."
Jeffrey laughed, "I think it would be a different story when you see me before I met my husband. I appreciate the offer but I have a husband to take care off."
"Hey, I know you are a very private person about you, and I was surprised when you slipped and said that Axel is married, may I know if you happen to know who Axel's husband is?"
Jeffrey went silent for a while, he's beating himself up for making such mistake. He sighed before answering. "Yes I do know, I know him pretty well." Jeffrey answered.
"How about the father of his child?" Herra asked.
"Herra Axel's husband is the father of his child. That man accepted Axel even after knowing that Axel can't give him children, that man even went as far as marking and marrying himâŠ"
"So the tattooâŠ"
"Yes Axel decided to cover the marking with his tattoo for his husband's safety and to continuously deceive his enemies."
"The husbands Surname isâŠ."
"Yes Parker, back then never once I saw Axel so proud of someone other than his husband."
"Why don't you tell him about him?" Herra asked.
"Because I know he will look for him. And with his state that he doesn't know anything about him the out come might not be good."
"Jeff?" Jeffrey and Herra looked at the person who called for his name.
"Axel come here." Herra called.
"AJ where is AJ?" Axel asked
Jeffrey smiled, when Axel is himself he's reasonable and caring mother. There were a lot of questions in Axel's mind when he woke up. The last thing he remembered was when they were in the operating room. Jeffrey explained as much as he can but nothing about Jules, he's afraid thar Axel might look for Jules when he's not stable himself. He even asked the tattoo at his nape, he's just thankful that Jules can't properly see the tattoo. Axel's mind was on the mission that they are about to take back then, the last thing he can recall.
