Sebastian's mansion.
It was designed by Canadian architect who was actually Ricky's mother's friend. And the furnitures inside were designed by Ricky's mother. From the details to the varnish used to beautify them, everything is going according to Ricky's mother's idea.
The golden brown ceiling is so relaxing. And no one will ignored the huge chandelier hanging in the middle of the living room. On the left, where you have to walk passed the 4 square meters family picture frame, you'll reached the dining hall that is have it's own flowing waters use to washing dishes, vegetables and etc. The round table that is designed so you can rotate it, is full of different types of fruits.
It's still the same as what it was on Cedric's memories 7 years from now. He sadly smiles as he shifted his eyes to where he just entered. He slowly walks towards the connecting door of the dining and living room. He then raised his head to look at the 50 steps stairs. The place where he used to carry Ricky to go up to his room.
Cedric gulps, he then wet his lips before stepping up. At the end of the stairs, you can see the beautiful painting by Leonardo da Vinci. One of Cedric memories is about this painting. He sold it to Salvador family just after Ricky died. And the reason was, he discovered that this painting is actually the gift from his mother to Ricky's father.
"Too much happened, right?" Cedric mumbled while staring at the painting.
The story starts when his mother Cecilia, admitted to his father that she was Ricky's father's ex-girlfriend. At first his father laugh at it. But when Ricky was born, according to his father, Cecilia abandoned his own child, who is Cedric and volunteered herself to be Ricky's nanny.
That time, Cecilia abandoned their business until Cedric's father couldn't managed it anymore and forced them to go bankrupt. And during the time when strong typhoons hits the Philippines, Ricky's mother and Cecilia died in an accident while protecting the young Ricky.
Cedric's father couldn't accept it and secretly blamed the Sebastian. Resulting of the evil plans they used to ruin the family. Cedric believed it too and followed his father's plan. And the ending is--
"I suffered in the future." Cedric bitterly mumbled.
He looked away from the painting and walks towards certain direction. Ricky's room.
The room where he always entered everytime he visited the mansion. The room where he and Ricky played a lot.
"Fuck! I can't do that anymore. Not in this life or even in the future." Cedric said as he gently knocked the door.
He heard footsteps approaching the closed door. And after few seconds, it opens. Ricky's - no - it's Daveryl.. Yeah, it's Daveryl but Ricky's face, turned dark in an instant.
"What the heck are you doing here?" The little brat snarled.
Cedric took a deep breath. This little brat is turning into a little cat, little by little. Is it because he disapproved when Daveryl asked his approval to become his son's fiance? How can he agree to that when he can vividly remember the time how his son Jobel, went back home full of hickeys? He maybe didn't asked what happened but base on his son's reaction when he mentioned Daveryl, he already understood the situation.
Yes. He knows, Jobel was raped by the spoiled brat Daveryl. He doesn't know how or what method Daveryl used but, that is the reason why he helped Jobel to hide the information about the car accident. Unfortunately, Daveryl died and Ricky's possessed his body. Resulting the more unbelievable events and discoveries.
"We need to talk." Cedric said.
"There is nothing for us to talk about, future father in law."
"Yes, there is. So open the door widely and let me enter." Cedric answered.
As the son of the person who planned everything, Cedric decided to know everything that was never mentioned to him during the process of his father's revenge. It's not late for him to know what's hidden behind the story. Was the accident really a part of the plan to kill his mother, or there's more to it?
When the little brat didn't move to open the door, Cedric forced himself in. Causing the little brat to panic.
"Don't you know that it is inappropriate for someone to enter the room without being invited by the owner?!" The little brat shouted just after he closed the door and locked it. "You even dared to locked it?!
"What's wrong with it? I have no plan of touching you, anyway. I'm here to talk. Aside from that, you also know that I used to sleep here. I'm not even surprised if you also vividly remember what exactly I did in that bed together with the owner of that body of yours." Cedric arrogantly said.
Daveryl was petrified. With trembling hands, he stepped back and immediately crawled back to his bed and covered himself with quilt.
"Pervert!"
"Ah-uh. Stop calling me that, little brat. You have no idea what pervert I may become if you continue to be like that. Roar!" Cedric smiles teasingly.
His eyes is full of nonsense. How in the world that this little brat managed to rape his son with his Beta body that time? Hold on, then what reaction will he shows up if he emits his pheromones?
With that thought, Cedric gently releases his pheromones. Directed to the one and only cat inside the room.
"Ugh..?" He heard the little cat groans.
When he glances at him, Cedric feels like he was nailed on the floor.
The little cat is crying!
He immediately retracted his pheromones and secretly cursed himself. This little cat is still young. Wait, when is his birthday again? Cedric remembers that their third meeting will be on Ricky's 19'th birthday.
He was busy remembering it when he suddenly pauses. Unstable pheromones mixed in the air.
Oh fuck! Why it did slipped out of his mind?! Ricky was a late bloomer! He told him that during his birthday party. He was told that, Ricky experienced his Differentiation after he met Cedric!
In other words, the current Ricky in front of him is still unstable because he just differentiated!
Cedric wants to punch himself. Nevertheless, he still managed to calm down. He looks for the suppressant that possibly inside the drawer of the room. When he can't find it, he glances at Daveryl.
"I'm sorry for mindlessly emitting my pheromones. Where is your suppressant?" Cedric asked the little cat who's still trembling.
His teary eyes are bloodshed and he keeps licking his small pouty lips. Daveryl then shakes his head.
"What do you mean by that? Don't tell me you don't have suppressant inside your room?"
Daveryl looked away. "I woke up in this body 2 months ago. Dad said I successfully differentiated as an Omega." He softly speaks while tightening the quilt in his body.
If that was two months ago, then Ricky's pheromone gland is still not mature. He needs to wait for 3 months to finally adjusted himself as an Omega. Although there is an easiest way to help him being stable, Cedric can't do it.
"Then, you still have no suppressant? Who's your doctor? Let me call him."
Daveryl didn't answer, he just remains silent and steady. And Cedric noticed that. So he took a deep breath and asked one more time.
"Don't be scared, I won't touch you. Just tell me your Doctor's contact number so I can call him."
"I don't know the doctor's number. But if you want to help me, you can call Ricky's friend. Dad told me that, that friend helped Ricky during his differentiation."
Cedric automatically frowned. "Ricky's friend?! Who?!"
"Jonathan Salvador?" Daveryl answered with question mark.
Making Cedric more uncomfortable. The wrinkles on his forehead deepens as he heavily stepped closer on the bed. He then sits on there and faced Daveryl seriously.
"And what did he do to you, during that time?" His voice is deep and cold.
There is only one way to help someone during differentiation. That is to envelope that person with other pheromones. For sure, that Jonathan smelled the sweet pheromones of Daveryl. And knowing it's a scent of an Omega, be poured his pheromones to Ricky's body.
It's so simple if you hearing it, but for those who knows the truth, it is not. Because, pouring your pheromones to someone differentiating, means, marking!
"I-I don't know. I don't have memories of Ricky's previous life before his differentiation. The memories started when I woke up, until the day he died."
How is that even possible? Cedric asked himself. Is this what they called amnesia? Forget that fucking amnesia. So, someone dared to mark what's his?!
With this thought, he angrily grabbed the edge of the quilt and pulled it. Next is he pushed Daveryl on the bed and pinned the little cat down.
"W-What are you doing?! You said you're not gonna touch me!" Daveryl struggles but Cedric didn't lossen his gripping.
"If you don't know what that alpha Bastard did to this body, I'll check it myself. Turn around!" He said angrily.
