Danny's eyes met with the man he has not seen in four years. Yet in all that time he couldn't suppress the desire to run into his arms and scream to the rooftops that that was his Mate. Except one person was keeping him from doing such a thing, Milla. Milla wasn't missed when she caught Kingston's eye. She had similarities that were keen to him, he just didn't understand why she clung to his Mate as if he was her mother. Neither of them were mated or Bonded so he would never know if his Mate has the audacity to cheat. Because the last time he saw his Mate was four years ago... "How old is she?" He asked quietly, Danny's fear rising on a whole other degree as he knew he couldn't hide anymore. Kingston on the other hand was fearful of the truth that he was coming to. He hoped what he was thinking to be true wasn't to be. "Four years old. She is four." Danny already saw a switch click for Kingston at the realization. The result was even more frightening for him to comprehend. Kingston felt like his whole world was crumbling before him. The truth was revealed to him and he found himself crumbling to his knees. Felt heartbroken to know that the little girl who stared at him as if he was a stranger, was his daughter.

Their one and only child...and he missed symbolic moments - because of his Mate. That one truth broke his heart and filled him with rage. "Dae-Jung how could you...?" He whimpered painfully, the pain heard in his voice breaking Danny down even more. All until Kingston stood abruptly and grabbed Danny's arm harshly, sending chills down his spine." How could you do this to me? To your Mate? Hide the fact that we have a daughter? How dare you?!"

Husband is in prison. Raising two kids on his own. Dealing with loneliness. Dealing with his job. How much can one take? Cameron Alono Jackson was happy- fifteen years ago that is, when he was with his husband and their two kids. That is up until the police caught up to Anthony D'arell Jackson and took him away for the rest of his life over multiple murders and kidnappings. As much as Cameron relies on them, one phone call a year isn't enough. Memories aren't enough, old pictures aren't enough. There's not one night that passes where Cameron hasn't been overthinking, crying, or contemplating about his life or the thought of Anthony's life in prison. And dealing with two fifteen year old teenagers is hard. Especially when one is constantly disrespectful, has anger issues and is careless about their action and the other is at a constant risk of being taken advantage of. Through all of this, Cameron has always tried his best to remain neutral and happy- but as the days go by it's becoming more difficult to act as if he's got everything under control. It's becoming harder to put on this mask of fake happiness when he always feels like he's slowly losing himself- But, what about Anthony?
