Benjamin was really itching to charge to where Nikolas was and break his nose. Was that bastard fooling him? Was he trying to steal his girl? Fuck, he wouldn't dare! He would surely forget how good they were as friends if he snatched Maru from him.

And that woman... the gall! She was treating him badly while she was sweet to his friends. That was unacceptable. And her photo with Nikolas? It was enough to make him commit violent murder out of sheer jealousy.

He had to rein himself and breathe hard so he could hold his temper. When he thought that his breathing wasn't that harsh and labored anymore, he sat back in his swivel chair. But as he took a look again at the sweet photo of Maru and Nikolas, vile suddenly rose from his throat to the tip of his tongue.

His lips were pressed hard, his slanted eyes were squinting in wrath as he scrolled through the comments section. His asshole friends were there, praising how good Nikolas and Maru looked together. That the two were a perfect match.

Perfect match? Damn his fucktard friends! How could an old bastard like Nikolas match with Maru's fresh and innocent face? They looked more like father and daughter, for goddamned sake!

He couldn't help but type a comment. 'Wow, Nik! I haven't knew you have a daughter all along. Congrats for being a dad. She sure looked like your kid. So damn young for an old ass like you.'

It just took a split second and Nikolas answered his sarcastic remark. 'Look who's talking? I'm just a year older than you, bud, come on! I ain't DOM, you fuckin know that.'

'But you do look like an old fag beside that very young lady. Just saying!'

'At least this fag knew how to woo a girl. No hard feelings though bud 'cuz I'm damned aware that you're just a jealous prick, ya know. Haha! Maru is a cool girl and I'm liking her more in person. Definitely, a great catch.' 😉

'We've talked about this already Nik,' he commented again with an evil emoticon. Just one simple sentence, but his threat was screaming murder.

'Talked about what?' But Nikolas goaded him, flaring his temper even more.

Shit! He scowled angrily. Nikolas was acting clueless when he damned warned him in their group chat. That bastard better prepare because he would really break his nose when they met.

He reached for his iphone and dialled Nikolas's number, fuming.

"Hey, Benj!" Nik happily picked up his call. He seemed as if unaffected by their unpleasant tirades in Facebook.

"Are you really looking for a bloody trouble, huh, Nik?" he said calmly but dangerously.

"Hey, buddy!"

"I'm not playing games here, Nikolas," he cut him off. He had no patience to deal with his punk of a friend. "Let me just make this clear to you, okay? Stay away from Maru or you'll harbor a dangerous enemy."

"Oppppsss!" Nikolas whistled on the other line.

"Are we clear, buddy?" His brows were cocking when he asked Nik, gritting his teeth.

"Of course-"

"Good! We understand each other then." That's all and he ended the call.

He really hoped that Nikolas understood him crystal clear. He didn't want to repeat himself anymore. One wrong move from him and he would surely get what he deserved.

He knew how Nikolas treated and seduced women. That friend of his was a no. 1 womanizer. But he wouldn't dare play with his Maru. That would be his end, for sure.
