Ezekiel let his head fall as his face hardened. He knew that if his grandfather saw he would have something to say about the way that he was looking. All that he wanted to do was to love who he wished without anyone questioning him. It wasn't as if he was hurting anyone by loving his cousin. It was a love that he had always known that he would be at the losing end. However, he couldn't help it Athiss was just that kind of person.

He was the kind of person that was easy to love.

After all the moment that he met Athiss, he knew that he was screwed. Sometimes he would meddle into Athiss relationships. But those guys were no good for his cousin, they were just dogs only trying to use him for his name, and not because they cared for the person behind the name.

It wasn't as if he was hurting anyone by loving Athiss. The only person that he was hurting was himself if he was being honest. And then there was Laylia, the women that captured his heart. But she was also the women who was hell-bent on harming the man he loved. He knew from the start that she would never be content with him.

However, he knew where to draw the line.

Quickly bringing his hand up so that he could wipe away the tears that seemed to be streaming down his face he heard: "You know that I love you Ezekiel, right? You, like Athiss, are my grandson. I would die and kill for you like I would do for him. But this fascination that you have with him, you need to get over it. It's not healthy child. It will continue to break your heart. You keep messing up when it comes to him. You want him to hate you, so you do everything in your power to make him hate you. And yet, even when he does. It's not enough. If you must tell him your feelings to get over him, do it. But you can't keep meddling into his life and affairs. You were the person in the family that he was closest to, around the same age. And yet you put his husband in a position that you knew he wouldn't walk away from. When that happened, what you wanted and believed that would happen is that he would run to you and you'd be able to comfort him. Yet it backfired on you. And to this day you are still trying to get over it. I-"

But before his grandfather could say another word he snapped his head up so that he was staring right at his grandfather, as he spoke: "You don't know anything grandfather. You are speaking out of turn. I may love him, but I would never jeopardize his marriage to Vaughn. Out of all the people that he could have ended up with Vaughn is the best of the wor-"

Before he could finish his sentence, his grandfather was standing up and walking towards him. He wanted nothing more than to bolt from this room. He hated feeling like he was being exposed. After all these were his feelings, and no one was supposed to know but him. Slowly licking his lips, he watched as he grandfather stopped in front of him as the man glared down at him. "It was never for you to choose what was the best for him. Nor was it your place to think that he ended up with the best of the worst. It's his life Zeke. Either let him live it or stay out of it. Those are the only choices that I am giving you now. And for the record when he finds out what you conspired with that woman, he may not even consider you family anymore." His eyes stayed on his grandfather as he watched the man walk from the room.
