CHROMIA SERIES

The Last Male Carrier

Chapter V: Trust

Hendrix

I should have known it from the first place. I should have known the possibility of him to run away. I should have known that Flynn was just sixteen years old and do needed to be guided all the time. Being so irresponsible, now his went missing and nowhere to be found. The island was not even a safe place for someone like him. What if he came across the village not far from the mansion? This was not the way I wanted my people to meet him. Tsk, this was my entire fault. I became at ease at the belief of him trusting my words so easily.

I repeatedly shouted his name again as I continue to roam around the forest. My men had told me he had gone into the woods so yeah, here we are searching for almost an hour since he fled. I couldn’t help but felt useless as time goes by and we couldn’t even find a single hint to where he was. It took sixteen years, sixteen fvcking years to find Flynn and it was one of my competent men who found him but now, I couldn’t even find him on my own here on my own island. I’m so fvcking inadequate! But no, this time I have to prove to him that I’m capable of taking care of him. I have to prove to him that I am a man of my words and all of the things I have said was true; that I would protect him, that he was now safe and no one’s going to hurt him anymore and that he could depend on me. And if given a chance I wanna show him that I love him, not because I’m a gay breeder wanting to impregnate a male carrier like him but because I fell in love with him since that day he crashed into my body, the right place where he belong to.

I continued to rove around the area shouting his name until I finally reached the middle of the island where the shrub of Chromia spectacularly towered the other trees around it. My eyes finally caught a glimpse of two people near the tree. My feet involuntarily walked towards the two individual but as soon as I approached them, my blood impulsively boiled at the sight that was presented to me. Even though both were facing the opposite direction to mine, one individual looked so familiar I knew for sure that it was no other than Flynn. I clenched my hands into fists when I saw how the man he was with wearing a black hoodie sensually touched my Flynn. The hell! How dare he touched what’s mine. Who does he think he was?

I was about to confront them when the unknown man suddenly faced towards me and flashed a smirked. I gritted my teeth and quickly sent dagger of looks towards his direction. He doesn’t look recognizable and even though the upper part of his face was concealed by the fabric of his hoodie I knew for sure he wasn’t one of the natives here. My hands were ready to beat the sh*t out of the man but then he suddenly ran into the woods and vanished. Who was that man and what does he want from my Flynn?

I didn’t waste any more time and made my way to Flynn whose still standing like nothing happened. Did he know the guy? Did he like it? I couldn’t help but felt jealous at that thought. Fvck no! I know I’m supposed to feel infuriated at the unknown man and not to him but I couldn’t help myself to feel the same way towards Flynn. Why does he seemed to be okay with what just happened. Maybe I have to teach him some lessons. I wanted him to know that I’m not planning on sharing him with some dick who wanted his fleabag.

When I was right behind him, I quickly grabbed his arm which made him faced to me. His eyes widened when he finally looked up and saw me. What? Shocked because I caught him with his man? Ugh! Why am I acting like this? I’m acting like a husband who caught his wife cheating. He silently whimpered at the force I gave to his arm but I didn’t care right now. He tried to get off my hold but it just made me tightened my grasp to him.

“H-hendrix…” He pleaded and I almost lost by hearing him say my name. I wonder how it would sound like to hear him say my name in other circumstances. I quickly pushed all the lewd thoughts out of my mind before I couldn’t stop myself from ravishing him here.

“It hurts.” He cried while looking at the hand grasping his arm. I could see tears building up on the corner of his eyes which made me realized that I have gone so far. I should have talked to him instead of putting my anger on him. I quickly pulled him into a tight embrace and there he started to cry, his hands clutched on my long sleeves polo shirt I’m currently wearing. I let him shed his tears on my chest as I continue to say how sorry I was for being rude while I continue to rub his back.

Flynn

A gentle knock on the door made me sit up from lying on the bed. I started to swing my feet on the edge of the king size bed hoping that it would be Hendrix outside but instead a voice of an old lady asking my permission to come in was heard. Pushing aside the disappointment I felt, I respectfully told the old lady whose name I remembered was Ada to come in. The wooden access slowly opened and revealed a beautiful woman maybe at her seventies holding a tray of food. She flashed a heartwarming smile showing his white teeth and I just shyly nodded in response.

After closing the door, she walked towards the side of the bed and placed the tray on top of the bedside table. She then looked at me for almost a minute or two like she wanted to say something but she seemed hesitant. Her eyes kept on watching my form it made myself conscious I broke my eye contact to her.

“Uhm… sorry if I made you uncomfortable, darling.” I heard her say, her voice was full of gentleness but unlike Hendrix hers was like a mother talking to her child.

“Do you wanna talk? I mean I understand if you don’t want to—.”

“Is he still mad at me?” I blurted out looking back at her under my lashes.

“Aww” She cooed and quickly went to sit beside me, pulling me into her arms in which I gladly accepted without any doubts. I just realized that maybe if I were to live here I should open up myself for everyone else. They don’t seem bad. In fact I felt welcomed it was just me who kept pushing them away. I felt gentle kiss on top of my head which brought me out of my thoughts.

“He’s not mad at you darling. He will never be. What made you think of that?”

“He left me alone here when we arrived and it seemed that he doesn’t want to talk to me.” I said remembering the time we went back to the mansion and I was hoping he would look at me and tell me he’s not mad because I ran away but instead he left me inside his room and went away without looking to me or saying anything.

“You know Hendrix could be so stubborn sometimes.” The old lady said making me looked up to her still not breaking her embrace to my body. “All of the people here in Chromia looked up to him since he was a young boy. People especially his father expect so much from him because someday he’s going to replace his father from being the autocrat of this island. He didn’t enjoy his childhood that much because he had to study and to train for him to be able to get his father throne. So whenever he failed into something whether it was him or others' fault, the stubborn side of him would come out he would wait until you admit that it was really your fault and not his. And I understand him each and every time he acted like that. People here are watching him, waiting him to fail so it was really a shame for him if he disappoints someone. But even though Hendrix had grown to be a man who he was right now, behind the tough man we always see was a kind, caring and loving man who wouldn’t let people close and especial to him be in danger. He would do anything to protect them, to protect us, to protect you.”

Lady Ada took a deep sigh when she noticed I just kept my gaze on her without saying anything about what she just said.

“What I’m trying to say Flynn is try to talk to him. Maybe if you have a talk all the questions bugging your mind would be answer.” She said pulling me out of her embrace. She then put both of her hands on both side of my shoulders.

“Try to understand him, Flynn. Trust him. Can you do that for me?”

I don’t know what to say anymore and I just nodded in response. Trust him? Would that be possible? Would I be able to trust another man in my life again?
