Love Chase

The following three days spent with the Longs were peaceful and surprisingly a lot of fun. Of course, people gathering and looking at them was unavoidable, but everyone was supportive, especially when both Tian Zi and Fyre tried to help tend the farm. Since Jules Long is farming both plums trees and apple trees and since it's not every day he could hire someone to do it, he and his wife try to tend to them as much as they could.

Although Tian Zi and Fyre really didn't help with anything, just looking at the two playing and bickering with each other really lifted the mood on the farm so both Jules and Carol just let the two be. If anything, this just proves to their neighborhood that their child was really in a relationship with Mo Tian Zi and it's not because there was some scheme behind it. Just from how the two interact, one could really tell that the two were really in love, and despite not being married yet, they look just like a newlywed couple.

"Zi, is this really, okay? We've been away from work for so long now," Fyre finally asked, looking at the sky, since they were now on a picnic together and were laying down next to each other to enjoy the beautiful view of the countryside.

"It's fine. They already know what you've been through so don't worry," Tian Zi assured. In his thoughts, he didn't even think that the movie was going to push through anyway because they could no longer contact Apollo White who is the male lead of the Movie. If anything, they might need to film the movie again from the start and change the male lead since there was no way he would let it go if the Alpha was to show his face in public. Furthermore, knowing that Lucien Sky is still out there, he's having second thoughts about having Fyre constantly going outside, even if he's around him. It's still safer to temporarily stay away from public places where the Alpha could be.

"Well, I guess if Apollo does not show his face again then going to work would be useless," Fyre agreed, thinking the exact same thing as his lover. Although he finds it a bit wasteful to just trash all the films they have already shot, the movie hasn't really ended yet and Apollo is a criminal. Even though they didn't have evidence, it was clear that he was part of an illegal organization. Even if Apollo does come back and pretend that he was innocent, the Mos—especially Tian Zi—won't let him be. If he showed himself, he'll only be asking for them to kidnap him just like they did to the Secretary of Defense of the country who is now buried 6ft under somewhere.

"Hmmn, well if he showed himself then it'll make our job a lot easier," Tian ZI snorted before a devilish smile appeared on his lips. He still hasn't forgotten that the man dared say that he was insecure and worried that Fyre might be taken away from him. While he's confident that he'd never let that happen, it still really irked him to hear it from an Alpha who's hitting on his fiance.

"Should I help you find them? Lucien's only goal is me so if he doesn't see me, he won't show himself as well. I don't know why he's so obsessed with me but I might be the only one who can stop this... even if it's dangerous," Fyre conveyed, and as Tian Zi listened, his eyebrows drew closer and closer to each other until he was frowning before he sat up looking down at his mate.

"What are you talking about? I'm not going to risk your life just to capture one insignificant bastard! No way! It's enough that he almost hurt you badly, he's never going to see you ever again," Tian Zi exclaimed with a knitted forehead, surprising Fyre. He already knows that Tian Zi's very protective of him and absolutely does not want him in harm's way but there's really no simpler option out there and if they wanted to erase such a threat sooner then they have to be bold with their approach. He knew Lucien pretty well and if there had been changes in the past years he had not seen him, he still knew the Alpha at a certain level and he knew he was a cautious man. For sure, he won't show himself for a while now and it'll only be harder to see him from this point on.
