His Redemption (MxM)

Chapter 7

Hewitt

When Stefano first told me about Luke, I badly wanted to meet him, I wanted to meet the person that put him through all those shitty things, I wanted to look into his eyes and ask him why he would do something like that to Stefano, but I actually met him earlier today one on one and it wasn't like I imagined, it was even more brutal

I had to literally control my emotions so I wouldn't kill him, I was so close to pulling the trigger on him, but I couldn't, not because I didn't want to, hell I was fighting myself not to, but because if I know Stef as much as I do, then he wouldn't like it if I did anything to Luke, Stefano's that pure hearted.

No matter what that bastard has put him through, deep down, he still has a soft spot for him, and I hate that he's that nice, nobody should be that nice, but Stefano is.

I left his place about a few hours ago, and now I'm at my dock, waiting for Matteo, he called that he wanted to see me, I don't know what for, but I know it has to do with Stefano, that's the only reason Matteo would want to see me.

I placed my hand on my chin, deep in thoughts as I let my mind run wild, my knuckles was still bruised and I think I have a bruise on my left eye, my mind going back to my encounter with that God forsaken bastard, I hate saying his name.
There's a way he talked about Stefano, there was always this look in his eyes whenever he mentioned his name, I can't.... I can't quite put my finger on it, something about it just doesn't feel right.

I don't trust him, and I have thought of so many reasons why he must have come here, to find Stef, and none of it is good.
This is someone that betrayed Stefano's trust, hell the trust Stef put in him, he hasn't put half of that trust in me, yet he took it all and just..... Ruined it, all for what??

That's another question I keep asking myself, why did he do it?
He said something about me not knowing anything about him, something tells me that's not just a statement.
The day Stefano told me about him, I could tell there was this bond, this connection between the both of them, so why did he betray Stefano?

To be honest, it doesn't make any sense, but he's Human, when has anything about humans made any sense.
It might have been for money, I mean it's easy to betray someone for money, or security.
I just can't wrap my head around it

I heard the door opened and I looked up, my eyes meeting with Matteo as he walked into my office, I sighed out heavily
"Hey" I whispered out heavily and he nudged his head at me.

"Hey, what's up" he muttered before he found his way on the chair in front of my desk.
Matteo and I are not that close, after what he did to Stefano, turning a blind eye to his feelings and then accusing him of sexually taking advantage of him, it took a while for me to trust him again with Stefano's well being and mental health

"You said you wanted to talk to me"? I asked and he just nodded and sighed out before he nudged his head towards my left eye

"What happened to your eye"? He asked and I just chuckled lightly and touched it, I know he's trying to make small talks, and I appreciate it, but we're not friends, the only reason we see each other and talk to each other, is because of Stefano, don't get me wrong, I don't hate him, neither do I dislike him, it's just going to take a while to get used to him being around.

"Uhm... I had a little talk with Luke" I muttered and I watched his jaws clench and his face hardened at the mention of that name, guess I'm not the only one that wants him dead

"How did he even find him"? He asked referring to Luke finding Stefano, I sighed out and shook my head

"I have no idea, but it's the last time it's going to happen, I made sure of that" he stared at me for a while before he nodded slowly "how is he? Is he okay"? I asked and his features soften and I even saw a small smile playing on his lips, that's how I know he loves Stefano.
