Chapter 28

Here's chapter 28. Sorry for the wait. Enjoy.

~.~

It takes him a while to snap back into reality after reading the texts and his phone slips off through his fingers and drops to the floor. He doesn't realize that his whole body had been shaking, and wet tears had started to rain down his cheeks like waterfalls.

He should be tired of crying so much by now, but he can't help it. When did his life start to turn for the worst?

Even when it is going well everything else around him seems to go wrong.

"Hey why are y—are you crying?" He hears Scaramouche's sleepy voice behind him and arms wrap around his smaller frame pulling him into a hard chest. "Did I hurt you? I'm sorry.. I didn't..."

Aether shakes his head. "No... I'm just..." he can't finish his sentence, his voice too shaky. "It's nothing you did." He finally says after a long pause.

Scaramouche picks him up, bringing him back onto the bed where he holds him. "Do you want to talk about it?"

He can't.

Fingers play with his hair and he seems to relax.

"My sister... I wish she tried to listen to me for once. Now she doesn't want to ever have anything to do with me. But I think it's for the best that we don't talk anymore."

Scaramouche let's out a sound of understanding.

"Family isn't everything. Sometimes our family are the ones that hurt us and it doesn't make it okay just because we are related." He places a kiss on his cheek, "I heard once how she talked to you.. it doesn't matter what you did it doesn't mean she can take that as an opportunity to let out her anger on you."

"So," the alpha continues, "It's not your fault this happened."

Aether takes his words in and he knows he's right. He still doesn't fully understand why his sister reacts that way towards him but it doesn't mean he has to take it.

"Thank you." He mumbles and he really wishes he can tell the alpha what's really going on in his mind. How scared he was about the texts he received, and how someone had easily stalked him and taken private photos of him—and how they could have MORE that they haven't even showed him.

So what if he tells Scaramouche? There's really nothing he can do for him and he can't put all this weight on him, it's not his responsibility and yes he knows very well the consequences of keeping things to himself but isn't that all he can do right now?

Plus... he has a feeling that whoever took those photos might've also been the one at the shower rooms that day and that thought was even scarier.

"By the way... I know this is a weird question." Aether sits up a little but is still in the alpha's arms. "But are you and Ajax super close friends?"

Scaramouche doesn't seem to expect that question.

"Well... We are close in the way that we share a lot of classes together and happen to share conversations not in the way in which I know everything about him. Because I don't." He shrugs before continuing. "His parents have connections with my mom's though but it's always business related. I hear he comes from a very powerful family. Like they can make people disappear type of powerful."

Aether feels a shiver down his spine.

"T-That's scary..." he frowns. "No one should be able to hold that kind of power."

"Its just words. To make people fear them." Scaramouche waves his hand around. "I don't believe it."

Aether keeps quiet.
