Pete remembered the first time he walked through the heavily guarded gates of the main family mansion. He was stopped and searched that first day even though Chan was the one bringing the sixteen year old to the compound. Now no one stopped him. He was after all a Theerapanyakul everyone knew he was the lover of the minor house heir. Everyone knew in a few hours he would carry the same last name as their bosses. Pete had spent the last two years treated not as a servant but as the husband of one of their masters. Soon all those same servants and guards would know that he was once again just another person who had wasted their life serving a Theerapanyakul. He was done wasting his days on this family that claimed to love him but seemed to often bring him as much pain as it had joy.
Pete never knocked when he entered the wing of the house the eldest brother claimed as his own. It was a privilege of being the eccentrics favorite. Khun considered Pete family the moment he walked through the door a decade ago. Pete knew Khun had secretly hoped his brother Kinn would take a liking to the boy being that Kinn was only two years older than the dimpled boy and they were so close in age. Khun had even tried to set the two men up several times over the years. He desperately wanted Pete to be family if not by blood then by marriage. This was the only reason he had eventually accepted Pete's relationship with Vegas. Pete wondered how Khun would react to the news that the beautiful wedding they sent months planning would never happen.
Pete found Khun already awake at before 6 am instructing Arm and Pol on how to steam their suits. All three men were in the same clothes they wore the night before just like Pete. It was clear they had not a one of them slept. When he saw Khun turn to face him he could not hold back the tears he had refused to cry at the gates.
"What happened to you?" Khun rushed to the younger man.
" I walked in on Vegas fucking some slut in our private apartment an hour ago." Pete replied in a whisper.
"Pol Arm leave now. Do not speak a word of what Pete just said." Khun waited until the guards left before uttering another word.
"Are you sure?"
"I am not a complete fucking fool Khun I watched him pull out of the slut myself."
Khun let go of Pete and walked to an antique desk beside the beautiful window he used to watch the cars go by. The slender man took a vile from a secret compartment under one of the desk drawers. A special gift from a lover Khun once had. While everyone believed he was insane the truth was the man was a genius. He had fooled everyone for years pretending to be crazy while he lived the exact life he wanted under his families noses. "Shall we kill him Pete? The chemist I fucked in the UK gave me this. It is tasteless so we could easily put it in his food or wine. Arther assured me whomever I give it to will suffer for days then expire."
Pete could see the darkness in Khun's eyes. Khun and Vegas hated each other most days, yet Pete had found it ironic that it was these two Theerapanyakul sons that were most alike in their darkness. Though one embraced it boldly the other hid it for their own advantage. Even in their love for Pete it was similar. Pete understood well both Vegas and Khun would kill for him.
"I don't want to kill him. I want him to live a long life so he can someday regret he lost us." Pete placed his hand on his belly.
Khun widened his eyes as he brushed his hand gently onto Pete's still flat stomach "Pete are you a carrier?"
"I found out last week. I wasn't feeling well and I didn't want to ruin the honeymoon so I went to the doctor. I never took the test my grandmother said it wouldn't matter and it cost too much. When Chan brought me here no one ever asked."
"Pete everyone takes the test. If you had told me I could have had Top give you the test long ago."
"Only ten percent of men are carriers I never imaged I would be one of them."
