No, no, no, it can't be. It can't be him. Riley keeps denying it even when standing in the VIP section of Velvet bar. He didn't want to believe his eyes, he wanted to assume his eyes were playing tricks on him. He didn't want to believe that the only person that showed him love and affection was the one sitting down there.
Sitting there was Alex, his boyfriend, with a blonde straddling his lap. Their lips gummed in a fierce, hungry kiss as they devoured each other.
He felt his soul leave his body. He walked quietly to their side. The duo, still unaware of someone in front of them, continued their hungry feast on each other's lips—Their moans and groans is like a powerful punch to Riley's heart.
Riley stood there like a fool not knowing what to do or say. Not knowing how he should react to Alex's infidelity right in front of him, right to his face.
"A-Alex…" His voice trailed off. Why? Why Alex of all people?
They didn't stop. They didn't even acknowledge him. They just keep on with their kissing, their moans getting louder and lewder. By the way Alex's grip tightened on the blonde's waist and the way his hand roamed all over her body, anyone at a glance could tell he's enjoying the kiss and it definitely not the first time.
Riley wanted to scream, he wanted to scream and asked Alex why he had done this to him. But he felt as if his tongue was tied— tied by the emotions swelling up inside him.
After what felt like an eternity, they finally separated when they felt the need of oxygen, gasping for air. "Fuck, baby. You're the real deal." Alex rasped while the blonde rubbed against him in response.
"Alex." Riley's voice was a low murmur. He stands like a drenched chicken as he stares at Alex's face in a daze, the man he had given his heart to.
Alex looked up this time and their eyes met. The eyes that were always filled with love and affection were filled with annoyance. Not even a hint of remorse in them.
Riley understood then and there that this was their end. Those eyes staring at him were devoid of the usual warmth that always makes him feel loved—that always makes him understand not everyone is the same, that everyone deserves to be loved.
"Alex.." His voice trailed off again, the tears that had already gathered the moment he stepped in here tickled down his face one after the other.
"Why are you here?" Alex asked, his voice carrying a hint of annoyance and desperation. "I'll ask again, why the fuck are you here?"
Riley just stared speechlessly at him. What exactly should he say? "Why…."
"Why what? Oh. So, you've been stalking me? Like seriously?" Alex's voice was a low shout, making Riley flinch a little.
He wanted to explain. Riley wanted to tell him he never for once stalked him. But why? Why should he? In fact, he felt all the emotions, the feelings, the love and all the affection he had for Alex for their five years relationship gradually turning into something else that minute—finally understanding the kind of man Alex truly is.
"Your tongue is tied now, huh." Alex said with a raised eyebrow. "Tell me, why are you here?" He asked as he squeezed the blonde's ass right in front of Riley's eyes. The blonde, still has her back on Riley, moaned shamelessly.
"You'll never have this…" Alex spanked the blonde's ass enough to make a sound. "This…" he trailed off, moved the blonde's face that was buried in his neck and held her by her shoulder, stared at the blonde's booobs and gently grabbed them with his hands, squeezing them with both of his hands. While the blonde throws her head back in pleasure with her eyes closed.
Riley's gaze at Alex's face as he said those words is unwavering, silently staring at him as if he just saw him for the first time. "I'm a fool…" he murmured, his gaze not leaving Alex's face. How did he not notice how unattractive Alex looked? Or was it that, at this moment, he suddenly found him unattractive or he had always been?
"Tsk. Still staring at my face? Fool." As Alex said those words, he should feel hurt or vulnerable right? But..
All he felt was anger. He finally understood what Leo meant by 'You only need to be shown a bit of affection and you'll be head over heels. Just what did you see in that beta?'
Exactly, just what did he see in Alex?
"I didn't plan on breaking up with you like this. I don't even know what your lips taste like." Alex kissed the blonde's lips and looked up at Riley. "Are your lips this sweet?"
Riley unconsciously touched his lips, then his neck that he had already covered with a suppressant patch before coming here and he felt a sense of gratitude. Grateful for his instincts for always rejecting Alex's advances. If he had let Alex have his way then, he wouldn't be feeling the sudden rush of dignity right now.
"You said you're a virgin? Haha, how funny. I'm sure that old man had rammed your hole like a whor…
Riley slapped Alex hard across his face, the slap hard enough that it tilted Alex's head to the right. No, he would let him call him names. He wouldn't let someone so filthy as Alex to insult him.
The blonde, still on Alex's lap, was frightened by the sound of the slap. She stood up from Alex's lap with an annoyed look on her face, ready to face the bitch that had the guts to slap her partner.
As she came face to face with the person that slapped her partner, the annoyed look on her face instantly turned to a bright smile.
"Brother, what are you doing here?" She asked with a knowing look on her face.
