Arthit placed a soft kiss on Kongpob's forehead before he stood up. His eyes trailed on the younger's bare shoulders that were filled with marks and bites making him smile. He pulled the blanket over the naked shoulders before he walked out of the room, making sure to not make any sound as he closed the door.

He looked down at the black mask on his hand, sighing he placed it on his face before he walked down the stairs and greeted the men who were waiting for him.

"Any information?" Arthit turned towards the lady who stood a few feet away from him.

"We tracked the BMW X5 and there were no traces found for the first few days until recently. It's the rival Gang, Sir. The one we dealt with the previous year."

"The monsters?" Arthit confirmed after he got a not from the other.

"Yes sir, and de found that Karen had got her assignment from them as well. The other important thing is that they have a spy in our company." The lady reported.

Arthit clutched his fist, "Who is it, Prae?"

Prae sighed before she turned towards the man beside her and nodded. Soon a man was dragged into the living room, his hands and mouth tied.

"George?" Arthit gasped.

"You!" Arthit marched forward and grabbed his collar.

"I trusted you! I trusted you bitch!" Arthit glared at the man who was shivering as he stared at his boss. George's eyes widened at the realization that Arthit Rojnapath was 'The Dark'.

Arthit threw a punch on his face before he dragged the other outside the house. He doesn't want his lover to wake up hearing the sound.

"Tell me! Who else knows that I'm Dark?!" Arthit's angry eyes boring holes into the other who had the cloth in his mouth removed.

"I'm so sorry, sir! I didn't know you-you was Dark! I didn't! I just followed my chief's words! He asked me to get details from you and the other heads! I just did what I was asked!" George knelt in front of Arthit.

"Get him to our garage and bring out all the information about their gang," Arthit ordered his men who nodded before they took George away who was crying to leave him alone and spare him. George knows once a person gets into Dark's clutches either he would return back in pieces or hanging on the trees.

"Prae." Arthit called and soon the girl stood in front of him.

"Yes sir?"

"Stay here and keep an eye on Kong. I'll to deal with that human trafficking group, they've been a pain in the ass for the past month." Arthit growled and Prae snorted trying to keep herself from laughing.

"Yes sir, you don't have to worry." Prae gave a small smile to the other which was replied by a death stare which she got so immune about.

Prae watched as Arthit and his men walk towards the black car where Prem and Knott were waiting for him. He sighed shaking her head, she sometimes thinks about how Kongpob handles this devil. But after all, it's Kongpob Suttilak, she knows the latter has Dark around his little finger.

******

Kongpob placed the letter on the bedside table, tears flowing from his eyes. He sniffled as he wiped his tears away.

"I love you P'Arthit. Just for this time, don't follow me." Kongpob whispered into the air.

He looked around the room, taking in all the memories he had with Arthit here. Their bedroom was their safe haven, laughter, cries, and angry battles, all were held in there. Steamy nights and their own music of lovemaking was witnessed by those four walls. He'll miss it for sure. He knows he'll.

Kongpob closed his eyes, taking a deep breathe he exited the room. When he walked down the stairs he saw Prae, his boyfriend's secretary on the sofa with bodyguards at each corner. Kongpob raised his eyes, something was off. He hadn't seen so many bodyguards inside their house, only a maximum of 4 bodyguards used to be guarding outside the house and during exceptional cases, they get inside the house. But now there were more than 6 bodyguards inside the house.

"Sir Kong, where are you going?" Prae stood up as soon as she saw Kongpob down the stairs.

Prae raised an eyebrow as her eyes fixed on the travel bag over Kongpob's shoulder.

"I'm leaving," Kongpob said, biting his lips.

"We'll drop you, where do you want to do, sir?" Prae asked, already giving orders to the men.

Kongpob immediately shook his head, "No! No! Prae, I want to go alone."

Prae stopped in her tracks. She stared at Kongpob and she knew something was wrong with the latter.

"What is it, Sir? Are there any issues?" Prae asked, she had nerve seen Kongpob so perplexed.

"Prae, please. I want some time alone and I don't want to stay here. Please let me leave." Kongpob said tiredly.

"But-but Boss said he should let you go alone," Prae said, cursing herself that she had to disclose it and she knows she'll get an ear full from her boss. But the look on Kongpob's face was making her worried. Did her boss and Kongpob have some fight?

"Why is that?" Kongpob raised his eyebrows. Arthit has never controlled him, he always let him go free and never forced him to do something. So if Arthit had ordered them to not leave him alone, then there might be something serious.

"It's nothing you've to worry about, Sir, but for now you can't leave without our bodyguards," Prae said firmly.

"See Prae, you don't understand. I want to leave as soon as possible and I don't want P'Arthit to find about it. This is for P'Arthit's good, I have to go." Kongpob said desperately. He needs some time to cool down and he couldn't do that in this house.

"Did you both fight?"

"No!" Kongpob immediately answered.

Prae cleared her throat, "Sorry for interrupting in your personal matters but it's boss's orders. I can't go against it."

Kongpob sighed, he massaged his temples. He doesn't want to see Arthit now. He and Arthit need some gap, everything between them was fast, and not that Kongpob was complaining but Arthit's state of mind was making him worried. He has to put some gap between the two of them to make their feelings settled before it gets too overwhelmed.

"Then, can you at least drop me at my friend's house?" Kongpob pleaded. He shot his puppy eyes at Prae who stayed silent.

Prae pursed her lips. She thought for a moment and the look the boy was giving her was making it hard for her. She sighed defeated as she nodded her head.

"Okay, come on," Prae asked Kongpob to follow her.

"You don't have to come, Prae. I'll go with them, I know you have got a lot of works to do." Kongpob smiled softly at the other.

"But-"

"Prae, please. I'll be fine." Kongpob interrupted. He smiled widely when Prae nodded her head.

"Thank you Prae." Kongpob hugged the latter and Prae was surprised but she hugged him back.

"Tell P'Arthit that I love him and I'll come back to him soon," Kongpob whispered to the other and Prae was sure that she heard his voice break.

"Sir?" Prae called out confused but was soon pulled away from the hug.

"Bye Prae." Kongpob smiled before he got into the black car with two bodyguards along with him.

Prae waved at Kongpob as she watched the car drive away.

"Guys! Let's go." Prae called out, putting her sunglasses she got into the car that stopped in front of her. She was not planning to leave Kongpob alone that way, Arthit had trusted him with her and she doesn't want to break it.

Kongpob doesn't know what he should feel. He knows running away is not a solution and he knows very well that Arthit will find him. Who was he kidding? He knows Arthit knows about every single step he takes and he knows he can never escape from Arthit. Arthit was always around him and within him.

He wasn't running away from their love or because he was afraid of what might happen to him if he lives with a mafia leader. He wants Arthit to have a grip on his feelings. Arthit's love for him was too overflowing, he knows it may sound stupid but that was the truth. Arthit couldn't even stand without seeing him for a day. Kongpob's afraid if something happens to him in the future Arthit might go out of control and he can't risk that.

Arthit has to get a hold of his feelings. And him too.

He doesn't want to be the reason Arthit is targeted. After he had entered Arthit's life he knows the latter is more vigilant. He had encountered it himself. He saw a different Arthit at that time and it almost scared him. He knows he's being used by Arthit's rivals to get hold of his lover.

Kongpob might only know the latter for more than a year but he knows how the latter had struggled. He had heard about Arthit's life from Arthit's friends and Arthit himself.

Arthit was just 15, an orphan boy on the streets who strived to get through the days when he met RP, the mafia leader when he was on the verge of dying. RP took him in and cared for him like a son for he didn't have any other family member. Arthit didn't want to stay with him for free, he volunteered himself to RP, telling the latter that he'll do anything for him. That's when Arthit became 'Dark', the well-trained fighter and mischievous mafia leader. After RP's death, all of his assets were passed to Arthit and he became the next leader of the team.

Kongpob might not have been with Arthit through his hard time but he knows how much the elder had suffered and he's proud of Arthit.

Kongpob closed his eyes, leaning against the passer seat as the music of the car entered his ears. He could have never imagined a day where he would be so valued like this would come. All because he was Arthit Rojnapath's, the mafia leader Dark's lover.

"Shit!"

Kongpob's eyes wide opened when he heard the driver curse. His eyes widened when the driver pulled a sudden brake and the car was lifted up from the door. Before he knew his door was opened and the bodyguard beside him was thrown out of the car. He didn't even get a chance to say anything when a punch landed on his face and he was dragged outside.

Kongpob felt his vision blur as another punch was thrown to his face. He heard the sound of gunshots and before he knew he was pushed into a car.

Kongpob tried his best to keep himself steady as he forced himself to stay awake. His head was dizzy and he could hear the others in the car shout at each other.

When the car was pulled in he was roughly brought out and pushed onto the ground.

Kongpob hissed when his face touched the ground. He groaned loudly when a kick landed on his stomach.

"Easy boys!"

A deep voice called out not too far from him. Kongpob tried to open his eyes and look at the source of the voice.

Kongpob groaned when his hair was gripped and pulled back making him look at the man who gripped his hair.

"Hey my boy, remember me?" The same deep voice asked.

Kongpob opened his eyes, his vision slightly blurry. He blinked his eyes and when the view in front of him was clear his breath caught up against his throat. His eyes widened.

"So you do remember me! I'm delighted knowing we haven't met for almost 13 years."

Kongpob lips trembled.

"Pa-Papa."
