"I didn't know what kind of charger you needed so I got a few-"
Stephen came in scaring me so bad I nearly jumped out of my skin. Thankfully the bed was large, otherwise his phone would be in pieces on the hardwood floor.
"Sorry I didn't mean to scare you. Did you get to talk to Myah?" He asked still leaning on the doorframe.
"Yea... something like that... I heard you already talked to her."
"Yea... Haha... something like that. You hungry?"
"...No."
"Don't lie. You have to eat... How else do you expect to take my cock, if you don't eat?"
"Is that all you think about?"
"Increasingly.... Today."
'Seriously... this guy is unbelievable. He's literally like a beast in heat!'
"I'll have food brought to you. I'm going to step out for a bit. Charge your phone, watch TV, if you need anything just dial *521 on the phone on the bedside table. Will you... bring me my phone? I don't want to make you, uncomfortable."
'Is he.... sulking? Is this a pouting Stephen? But why?'
"When will you be back? Or will you be back? This is your room isn't it? Why don't I stay in a guest room or something. You should stay in your own room."
"Mizu... are you inviting me to bed? I must warn you, I'm quite ravenous for you so I can't promise to keep my hands to myself."
I stood up, marched over to him at the door and pushed his phone into his chest. Then I went to sit on a sofa wrapped up in a sheet, and grabbed the remote off the coffee table.
"I want new clothes! Or there are going to be serious consequences."
If I was going to be locked up in this mansion I would not be doing so in the buff.
"Yea... you can just shop online right? There's a computer on my desk over there. Fill the cart. Call me when your done. I might want to add to it." He said, laughing and walking away.
Sitting on the sofa I surfed through the channels, not really focusing on the screen. Suddenly there was a soft knock at the door, before I could move, a man walked in pushing a trolley of dome-lidded platters. He rolled the cart over to the sofa I was sitting on and then left just as swiftly.
'So he does have a butler? Should I call him Alfred? He didn't say a word to me though.... Slightly creepy.'
I checked the battery percentage on my phone, and determined I could at least turn it on now. Though not fully charged, it wasn't completely dead either. I scrolled threw all my missed texts and calls. I sent a text to Myah letting her know my phone was back on.
I opened the lids of the platters and saw a wine spread. Cheese, fruits, crackers with a red wine and a sparkling wine. I wouldn't get drunk, even if I drank both bottles. However I could no longer deny my hunger. I devoured every crumb, chasing it all with the wines. It started slow, I tasted the cheese and fruit paired with each wine. But after many combinations, I threw decorum to the wind.
I laid on the sofa full, content, and curled up, letting some action movie watch me slowly fall asleep.

Stephen's Point Of View
Stephen was a mess, he hadn't slept for more than 3 hours in the last 2 days. Just being around Mizu made his body burn. It didn't help that he seemed to have a knack for witnessing him acting scandalous, unintentionally. Mizu seemed to really like having his bite marks on his skin.
Twice now, he had walked in on Mizu running his fingers over the marks absent-mindedly with his eyes closed. The blood had rushed to his lower half in an instant.
Stephen made his way to his office after contacting the kitchen to send Mizu some food. He had to keep himself busy so he wouldn't give into his baser instincts and jump Mizuyuki's bones. While he did own a few businesses, he was rarely ever busy.
He sat at his desk looking over contract proposals for new hotels and resorts. People were always sending him business proposals, every business venture he took part in, tripled its value by the end of the year.
While his family was a wealthy conglomerate, his money and business ventures were his own.
Just then his phone rang. He checked the caller ID and quickly ignored it. He was in no mood to deal with his second in command. Sebastián could never keep a secret. Soon there was a soft knock at the door.
"Come in."
It was the estate butler, William.
"Yes?"
"As per your request sir, food was taken to the young man. This time he did eat and drink everything, he is currently sleeping on the sofa."
"Thank you, William. Continue to keep him hidden, and please take care of him. He's had a rough go at things."
"Yes, sir. I will do as you say." William gave a dutiful nod then left.
Stephen's phone rang again. This time he sent a short text.
-In shower call you back later.
Stephen sat his phone down and ran his fingers through his hair. His mind was racing. He was going to have to beef up security to keep Mizuyuki safe. While his father hadn't been back to the estate, that didn't mean he would never show. Truth is, if he found out Stephen was letting a man, who wasn't a servant stay here, he'd be here before the week was up.
He promised to do what he could to protect him, but he knew just how flimsy peace could be. Now anxious, he stood up and headed for his room. He carefully opened the door.
True to William's words, Mizu was passed out on the sofa. Curled up like a cat. However, when he got closer he realized Mizuyuki was sweating and groaning, in the throes of a nightmare. He touched his arm but Mizuyuki only flinched and screamed. Tears streaming down his cheeks even with his eyes closed.
"Mizu... It's ok, it's not real. It's ok, I'm here now. It's just a dream." He said, leaning over the back of the sofa stroking his hair.,
Myah had warned him that his trauma and PTSD stay rooted in his dreams. He relived events that happened to him at random. She advised to stay close since they always seemed to get worse when he sleeps in a new environment. Stephen hadn't taken her words wholesale, after all he had slept twice here with no problem. But Myah was right, even after trying to soothe him, he was still trembling and crying in his sleep.
Stephen picked Mizu up to take him to the bed, his trembling stopped instantly as he took in a deep sleepy breath. Then suddenly, Mizu brought his hands to his own chest and proceeded to curl into Stephen's chest with a sigh. Stephen's heart quickened, this was a precarious situation to be in. He hurried over to the bed, and put Mizu there wrapping him in a second cover.
He tried to head out to give Mizu some space, but he grabbed the sleeve of his shirt in a tight shaky fist.
"Don't... leave me... please." Mizu quietly sobbed, eyes still shut tight.
'Ah... fuck me. This guy will be the death of me. How the hell do you say no to that. His eyes aren't even open, who knows who he's grabbing onto in his sleep.'
Stephen let out a tired sigh. Then he tugged his shirt out of Mizuyuki's grasp and walked around the bed. He crawled onto the bed towards Mizu from the other side stopping just short of him.
'Sigh... What the hell am I even doing.'
He groaned, lifting Mizu fallen arm, and placing it back on the bed. At that Mizu smelled him again and then curled up on his side, placing his nose against Stephen's chest and breathing deeply.
"Recognize me by smell now do you? Is that supposed to be a compliment?" Stephen said, stroking Mizuyuki's hair.
"Mmm... Master..." Mizuyuki said on a lazy sigh.
At that, Stephen was undone, he wrapped his left arm around Mizu's waist and placed his right arm across him and continued to stroke his hair. He could tell it was going to be another sleepless night for him.
However his phone began to ring again. Stephen pulled it out his pocket and finally answered it.
"Speak. If it's not important you're a dead man." He all but growled into the phone.
–Aw boss don't be like that. I have a lot of news for you. I even ran into the Psycho Sadistic Princess. I'll stop by tomorrow to give you a full update. More importantly, I heard our father's were back in New York... Ok see you tomorrow boss. Get some rest.–
"Wait Sebastián, don't you hang up on me damn it. What do you mean they're both back in NY?"
–Yea something about an auction of a lifetime. Look I have everything recorded down, I'll be there tomorrow. I'm headed your way right now, I'll be there by 8am.–
"Okay see you then." He said, a deep sigh leaving him.
He dropped his phone behind him onto the bed, and looked down at the precious guy in his arms. Except, said guy was now very much awake and glaring daggers at him.
'Well... shit. This is awkward...'
