The Master [MxMxM+]

28

The Master sat in one of the most comfortable looking leather seats with a table between him and Tadashi.

He raised his cup to his lips and glanced momentarily to make a point before taking a sip of his tea.

Before Tadashi had come into his life, you could only catch him dead taking tea so casually like he didn't have things to do.

All it took was a week's time of sickness that had forced him to accept Tadashi to take over and do everything right down to spoon feeding him.

There was some sort of bond between the two of them, he wasn't going to deny it. And at that moment of his life, it had strengthened.

They weren't friends. He wasn't going to call it that. And he thanked God the other man was on board with him on such matters.

One thing he could admit though, was that sometimes, he actually looked forward to their tea drinking sessions.

"We were wrong about the number of families looking for Pierre," Tadashi said while setting his cup down. "Not so far off, they are only two and none of them are his actual family."

"Why are families other than his own looking for him?"

"I'm still not sure about the details. But one thing is for sure, Pierre didn't lie about his name, and we've got the names," he sipped once. "You might have heard of the famous Beaumont and Fontaine families."

"They both have hosted the president and his family before. Nicolas Fontaine is praised for rescuing twenty one girls from human trafficking."

"But rumors have it that it was all staged for the sake of publicity."

Alexander nodded. "The Beaumonts stood by their side until the chaos died down. Together they founded 'L'Aide'. The organization for all victims of abuse. They are national heroes."

"To some people. But we're ready, we're just waiting for them to strike."

"What would they want from Pierre?" Alexander asked.

Tadashi shrugged. "It could be anything."

"Alright then, that's that. Until we find any other information."

Tadashi finished his tea and crossed his legs.

"So they are left with about three other months... what do you plan to do if the threat comes after that—after the program, then what?"

"Then it's not my problem Tadashi, I just don't like people taking what's mine when it's mine," replied the Master.

"I know that, and its all good Alexander, as long as you know what you're doing and and it won't mean anything to you."

The words fell like stones settling under water, they settled in the Master's mind like no one was going to be able to take them out.

He pictured Pierre in his head... he took his virginity.

It didn't matter.

He called him beautiful...

It didn't matter.

Pierre was getting more comfortable around him by the day...

It definitely didn't matter.

"Alexander, are you okay?"

"It doesn't mean anything," he replied to Tadashi before his mind could drift to the others.

He got up and checked his watch. "The meeting is in three hours. I'll meet you in forty five minutes."
