The thing that held Zenos and Hayden together was something greater than love, something science couldn't explain and that Zenos knew.
And it was still baffling how he and Hayden had quickly moved up to this status in a few days. This natural closeness Zenos and Hayden had is something that would take months or years for other people, but Zenos and Hayden felt like two halves that became one. And that poses no problem for the two to become themselves whenever they're with each other.
Seeing the boy's chest, which was filled with his marks, rise, and fall silently, Zenos picked up his phone and sent a message to Michael.
'Bring it back.' Zenos texted.
Yes, Zenos was scheming and paranoid. He knew he couldn't let Hayden go, so there was always a second plan.
Hayden can only be his, and he'd do anything to get everything about the boy.
“Send me more,” Zenos said to Sean, who immediately picked up the call.
