HEARTHSTONE GUARDIANS : THE ENCHANTED BOND

Chapter 13 - Noah's Short Fantasy

His thoughts drifted to Liam and Max. They had quickly become the centre of his world, and he cherished every moment he spent with them.

As he climbed into bed, Noah couldn't shake the image of Liam's tired but determined expression from earlier. He admired Liam's strength and resilience, and he felt a deep sense of affection for both Liam and Max.

But as he drifted off to sleep, his thoughts took an unexpected turn. In his dream, Liam appeared before him, his eyes dark with desire as he pulled Noah into a passionate embrace. The air crackled with electricity as their lips met in a fiery kiss, igniting a flame of desire that burned hot and bright between them.

Lost in the intensity of the moment, Noah surrendered to the passion of his dream, his body responding eagerly to Liam's touch. Their hands roamed freely, exploring every inch of each other's bodies as they gave in to their deepest desires.

But just as things were reaching their peak, Noah was abruptly awakened by the harsh sound of his alarm clock, jolting him out of his steamy reverie. Blinking in confusion, he realized with a jolt that he had been dreaming – and that he had woken up with an embarrassing morning man situation.

Blushing furiously, Noah quickly scrambled out of bed, trying to shake off the lingering effects of his dream. As he got ready for the day ahead, he couldn't help but feel a sense of embarrassment at the unexpected turn of events.

But despite the awkwardness of the situation, Noah couldn't deny the rush of excitement that had coursed through him during his dream. And as he headed out the door, he couldn't help but wonder what the day would bring – and whether his dream might just hold a glimmer of truth.

A Life with Liam and Max

Noah woke up to the soft light filtering through the sheer curtains of his studio apartment. Stretching languidly, he shook off the remnants of his steamy dream about Liam and Max, though their absence lingered in his thoughts as he went about his morning routine.

Heading to the bathroom, Noah turned on the shower, allowing the warm water to cascade over him, washing away the last traces of sleep. He reached for his favourite shower products – a luxurious body wash with a hint of sandalwood and bergamot and a fragrant shampoo that left his hair smelling fresh and clean.

As he lathered up, Noah couldn't help but imagine what it would be like if Liam and Max were there with him. He pictured Max splashing around in the tub, giggling with delight as Liam playfully tousled his hair – a scene of domestic bliss that filled Noah with a sense of longing.

After his shower, Noah wrapped himself in a plush towel and made his way to the kitchen, where he set about making breakfast. He rummaged through his pantry, pulling out ingredients for his favourite dish – avocado toast with poached eggs and a sprinkle of chilli flakes.

Noah heated a skillet on the stove, adding a drizzle of olive oil before carefully cracking the eggs into the pan. With practised skill, he poached them to perfection, the yolks still slightly runny as he carefully transferred them onto slices of toasted sourdough bread.

Next, Noah sliced open a ripe avocado, scooping out the creamy flesh and spreading it generously over the toast. A sprinkle of sea salt and chilli flakes added the perfect finishing touch, the vibrant colours and Flavors coming together in a delicious harmony.

As he plated up his breakfast, Noah couldn't help but imagine Liam and Max sitting at the kitchen table with him, their laughter filling the air as they shared a meal. It was a bittersweet thought, but one that filled Noah with a sense of warmth and comfort nonetheless.

With breakfast in hand, Noah headed out the door, his thoughts still lingering on the family he had come to care for so deeply. As he made his way to his office, he couldn't help but hope that one day, his dreams of a life with Liam and Max by his side would become a reality.

Unreluctance

Noah found himself in an awkward predicament when his parents, eager to see him settled down, arranged a blind date with a woman from a well-respected family. Despite his protests, Noah agreed to meet her, not wanting to disappoint his parents.

As he arrived at the upscale restaurant where they were supposed to meet, Noah couldn't shake the feeling of unease. He felt out of place, knowing that his heart belonged to someone else – someone he couldn't stop thinking about, no matter how hard he tried.

As he sat at the table, nervously fidgeting with his napkin, Noah glanced around the restaurant, trying to distract himself from his swirling thoughts. And that's when he saw him – President Liam, dining with a group of dignitaries at a nearby table.

Noah felt a jolt of surprise at the unexpected encounter, his heart skipping a beat as he locked eyes with Liam. He quickly looked away, feeling a flush of embarrassment at being caught in such a compromising situation.

But despite his discomfort, Noah couldn't deny the pang of longing that tugged at his heart. Seeing Liam reminded him of everything he was missing – the warmth of his smile, the twinkle in his eyes, the way he made Noah feel alive with just a glance.

As the morning wore on, Noah tried his best to focus on his date, engaging in polite conversation and forcing a smile when necessary. But his mind kept drifting back to Liam, his thoughts consumed by the man who had captured his heart in ways he couldn't explain.

By the time the morning came to a close, Noah couldn't wait to escape the awkwardness of the situation. He made a hasty excuse and rushed out of the restaurant; his heart heavy with the weight of his unspoken feelings.

As he stepped out into the warm breezy air, Noah couldn't shake the feeling of regret that washed over him. He knew that he had let his parents down by not giving his date a fair chance, but at that moment, all he could think about was the one person he truly longed to be with – President Liam, the man who had stolen his heart without even trying.
