Daren and Axel eventually received treatment from the hospital for their injuries. Although Axel's injuries were worse than Daren's, he didn't want to be treated for too long.
After his wounds were treated, he immediately went over to Daren who was still asleep on the hospital bed. He saw that the man's head wound and some abrasions had already been treated.
"Huft... Good, now we just have to wait for them to come," he muttered and gently rubbed Daren's head.
Axel felt a little guilty for putting Daren in such a dangerous situation. He had no idea that the people who had been following them were after him.
'But... If they're after me, why did someone keep staring at Daren last week? Are they different people?' he thought as he became very wary that something dangerous might happen again.
And this time it was because someone was after Daren. The man had to be extra vigilant for every possibility that could happen.
"I'd better solve this problem quickly before he gets involved," he muttered.
A few minutes later, Viona and Mike came over to where Daren was lying.
"What happened? How did this happen?" asked Viona, Daren's mother with a panicked look on her face.
The Omega woman was shocked when she heard that Daren had gotten into an accident. She immediately left the party to see how her son was doing. Viona had already lost her first son, she didn't want to lose Daren too.
Meanwhile, Barney did not care about it when he was told and continued the banquet without caring about Daren's condition.
"I'm sorry, mistress. A car followed us and deliberately tried to kill us. That's why the young master and I tried to avoid it and the accident happened," Axel explained briefly without giving the details of the incident.
The Omega turned to her son's bodyguard and saw that he was more injured than Daren.
"Thank you for protecting my son," she said with tears in her eyes.
As mischievous as her son was, even to the point of upsetting her, Viona still loved Daren. She never forced him to stay away from what he loved like being an actor or anything else. She was just worried about losing him to scenes that could be dangerous.
"Young master..." Mike also looked saddened at the state of his childhood friend, but there was nothing he could do to help him.
"Did the people who were following you escape? Or are they still at large?" he asked.
Axel thought for a moment about the answer he would give, the Alpha couldn't possibly say that he killed those people and then just dumped their bodies.
"I don't know. When me and the young master jumped from the car, we both fainted. Then another car passed by and helped us to the hospital," Axel explained.
"The most important thing is that Daren is okay, if I asked him to stay at home, he would have been very angry. He would've tried to run away like that and... I don't want to lose him either." Viona's hand rubbed her son's head.
Slowly Daren's eyes opened, he looked around and saw that his mother was there.
"Mom..."
"Yes, mom is here," the woman said and kissed Daren on the forehead.
"Young master, thank goodness you're awake. I was so worried about you!" Mike rubbed Daren's hand.
Axel, meanwhile, stared at the man, who stared back at him. It was as if they were exchanging thoughts on what had just happened earlier.
"How are you, Daren? Everything okay?"
"Still a little sore, mom. But it's okay, it'll go away," he replied.
"Thank goodness then, I'll ask the doctor to send you straight home. You can rest in your room, are you hungry?"
"Yes, I'm quite hungry."
Viona smiled as she hugged Daren, saying she would have the chef make a meal for him when he got home.
The man flinched slightly as his mother hugged him. He was reminded of how his father had boasted about Ivan in front of everyone, as if he were his son.
It made Daren feel sad and disappointed.
But he forgot that his mother was much more attentive to him. He still had his mother him. He slowly returned his mother's hug and buried his face into her neck.
"Mom... I..." His body trembled as if he wanted to cry.
Daren was also still very afraid of the incident earlier, the incident where he thought he would die. But it turned out that he survived, he didn't care about the pain and blisters on his body. The man was happy to be alive thanks to Axel.
"Sshh... It's okay, mom is here for you," Viona whispered as she rubbed her son's back. "Everything will be okay."
He felt very comfortable in that embrace, feeling his fears leave right then and there.
*****
An hour later, Daren was finally allowed to go home after the doctor confirmed he was on the mend. He and the others finally returned to the mansion in the car Mike had brought.
Upon arrival at the mansion, Viona asked Mike to call the chef to make something for Daren. Meanwhile, Axel was asked to take the blond man to his room.
"I'll go to my room, you go rest after eating, got it?" Viona stroked Daren's cheek gently.
"Okay mom, I understand."
She smiled and headed for the elevator.
However, at the same time, it turned out that Barney had just returned from the banquet together with Ivan. Daren, who saw it, could only remain silent. He didn't know why, he didn't want to talk to his best friend for now.
Ivan, who saw Daren, immediately ran to him and hugged him.
"Oh my God, thank God you're okay! I was so panicked when I heard you had an accident!" he said frantically.
The Omega tried to stifle his moans as his body ached from the hug. Axel, who realized it, immediately pulled Ivan away.
"He's still injured, don't hug him like that! Do you intend to hurt him?" Axel asked irritably.
"Huh? N-no, that's not what I meant! I'm sorry, Daren. I shouldn't have hugged you," said the Beta Male again while holding both of Daren's hands.
"Yeah, it's fine," he replied as he looked away.
It wasn't long before Barney approached them, especially Daren who looked like he had a head injury. The blond Omega looked up at his father who was suddenly in front of him.
They both stared at each other before finally...
PLAK!
"YOU TROUBLEMAKER!"
