Master

Chapter Fourteen

Hey guys, how are all of you doing? Hopefully you are all still safely quarantined. I've been spending time with the kids and watching movies, not even reading that much, to be honest. Anyway, hope you all enjoy this chapter xxx.

Hayden's POV

I can't believe he actually accepted me and my lifestyle. I honestly thought I would have to work harder for his acceptance, but it showed me just how special my baby truly is, I thought to myself as I got out the car.

Yes, I can finally call him my baby! The thought made me feel like a giddy schoolboy at times, but I just couldn't help it. I was so happy to finally be able to hold him and kiss him as much as I wanted.

I was a bit worried about today though. I had gotten some news on the boys that had assaulted him as well as his father. The news about the boys should make him feel a lot more relaxed, but the news about his father is what worried me. Apparently the man hadn't been seen for almost a week now and that worried me.

He has always been in the public eye, so why would he suddenly go completely off the grid like that? The last he was spotted, was almost a week ago. He was spotted loading some things in his car early in the morning and that was it, nothing after that.

I looked up at my house as I stood in my driveway. I spotted all the cameras that covered the entire front of my property as well as the gates. There were more on the sides as well as the back of the property, so I was pretty confident that no one would be able to get in without anyone knowing about it.

I smiled as I made my way up the steps to the front door, the thought of cuddling with Corey for the rest of the night making me happy.

As I stepped inside, I didn't see anyone, but I knew the cameras inside were tracking my every movement. So I made my way to the kitchen, which is where I could usually find Corey this time of the day.

I was just about to enter the kitchen when I heard footsteps from behind me. I turned and saw one of my new guards coming towards me. I was still very impressed that someone as small as him could have the resume he had.

"Mr Lawson, could I have a quick word with you?" He asked me when he saw me turned towards him. I didn't like the look of worry on his face, so I nodded.

"Mr Lawson, we believe someone is tampering with the security system. Over the last two days, we have found cameras that have been blacked out with spray paint as well as scuff marks on the back fence. Also, Leonard, one of the guards that patrol the back, was found injured this afternoon." He said all of that in his usual soft, but firm voice.

"Thank you Landon. Please tell Greg that I need to have a meeting with him in about an hour. I need to talk to Corey about something and also inform him about all of this. I refuse to keep him in the dark, especially if it's him that's in danger. He needs to know what's happening because this is his home too." As I finished, I saw a very small smile appear on his mouth, before it quickly disappeared.

I thanked him again and turned back to the kitchen, smiling when I saw my baby sitting by the counter, working on his homework. I don't know why he didn't use my office, or the desk in his room. For some reason he loved doing it here and I had a suspicion it had something to do with his old life. He told me about the woman that helped him when he was still there. I still had to make a plan with her. She protected my baby and I wanted her out of that hell hole.

I silently made my way towards him, till I was standing right behind him. I saw he had his headphones on, which explained why he didn't hear me enter, so I leaned over and kissed his neck softly.

He jerked up in fright, before he whipped around and saw it was me. "Hayden, I didn't know you were home yet!" He exclaimed as he jumped off his stool and into my arms.
