(BL) Mafia Love; He who falls the hardest loses-Chapter 85: In his arms

Hiroshi walked out of the bathroom dressed in a pair of pyjamas to see Haruki lying under the white covers like a little hill covered in snow.

He walked to him and pushed the cover down away from Haruki’s face before climbing into the bed and under the covers. He brushed the short strands of hair covering his face.

The beautiful face of the man whose eyes were peacefully closed was too mesmerizing for him to simply close his eyes and go to sleep so he gathered the man into his arms and pressed a kiss on his smooth forehead partly covered by his hair.

Haruki felt the warmth around him and adjusted himself deeper into the warmth like a chick seeking warmth in the cold. He rubbed the sleepy man’s hair combing his finger through his hair.

This was a dream come through, the joy he felt was too much for him that his eyes refused to close as he stared into the darkness of the room after turning off the lights.

"I love you," he dared to murmur to the sleeping man in his arms simply because his words would not be heard. It was the secret his overwhelmed heart shared with the walls of his rooms, one he was too scared to tell Haruki with his eyes opened not to talk of his with his gaze fixed on him.

The alarm rang loudly on the nightstand on his side of the bed. Hiroshi opened his eyes and the man he hugged steered in his arms and raised his head from resting against his chest.

Hiroshi stretched his free hand to the alarm disrupting Haruki’s sleep. He had woken up just before the alarm rang but with so much wealth and power resting in his arms, how was he able to leave for work?

The alarm clock stopped its whining over being forced to watch the new sight after he hurriedly shut it off. He returned to his former position and Haruki adjusted himself in his arms and continued to sleep.

He stroked the soft dense hair of the man he held until Haruki stopped moving after the earlier disturbance. It wasn’t until the alarm on his phone began ringing did he left the position.

Even after stopping the alarm, it was difficult for him to rise up but he had a surgery scheduled later in the morning and he had things to do in the hospital before so he quietly and gently moved away from Haruki.

He adjusted the covers around Haruki and his hand felt numb after hours of leaving it in a position. He massaged his hand as he rose and walked to the door.

He opened his fridge stacked with groceries as he had done grocery shopping only recently. He sliced and chopped some vegetables quietly in the kitchen as though fearing that the sound would wake Haruki too early. frёewebnoѵēl.com

He fried an omelette and got rice ready. Time went by too fast after all, he had set the alarm clock to wake him early for work but he stood up from the bed almost an hour later.

He did not have much time so he made everything as simple and yet as nourishing as a meal could be. He ensured to use of rice, meat and vegetables to make the meal appetizing and a perfectly balanced fuel to energize Haruki.

When the meal was done and kept it warm and went to clean up around the house for a while before he directly went to wake Haruki. He then began cleaning the room while Haruki slept. He tried to be as quiet as possible and Haruki continued to sleep undisturbed by whatever he was doing.

It was only when he was ready to clean up himself did he went to wake Haruki up. He pulled down the covers slightly and gently tapped Haruki’s shoulder.

Haruki’s eyes opened almost immediately. Haruki wore a look of surprise as he sat up. He bowed his head as he sat down cross-legged and rubbed his face.

"Good morning," he greeted Haruki when the man finally raised his head to look at him.

"Hmm," Haruki replied his voice deeper and hoarse.

That voice was so sexy. Hiroshi sat on the bed close to Haruki and said, "I deserve a morning kiss, don’t I?"

Haruki wanted to ignore the man and get down from the bed but the shameless doctor leaned closer with his lips posing for a kiss.

Haruki sighed tiredly before giving in to the man’s request and got down from the bed. He walked to the bathroom and cleaned up first. Hiroshi thought of going to the bathroom in the other room but he ate and decided to wait for Haruki instead although he was clearly running late.

When Haruki stepped at him looking groggy, he walked past the half-naked frame of the sexy man and hurried into the bathroom. He might be even late for work if he allows himself to get tempted by the beautiful seductiveness Haruki exuded after waking up.

It was only after he had fully undressed that he remembered he hadn’t told Haruki that breakfast was ready so he opened the door of the bathroom slightly and called out to Haruki who was sleeping on the bed without the covers.

"Breakfast is ready on the table," he announced loudly.

Haruki still feeling as though he had not fully woken up did not bother to respond to the man. After his eyes opened properly, he forced himself to stand up from the comfort of the bed and went out of the room.

As the doctor said, there was food on the table and aside from the well-laid table for their breakfast, the house was back to what it was when he came the night before. It was neat, organized and almost spotless giving a trace of lifelessness in the overly neat space.

The simple couch, the other sofa and the coffee felt too rigid in the room painted a deep shade of grey. He felt the need to tell the man about changing some things about the house.

It was only after he began eating his breakfast that he realized that although he condemned the interior design of the house, he still felt very comfortable in the space as though the design was his idea.

He had barely finished his meal when the doorbell rang. He rose up and walked to the intercom. The person outside was his assistant Kiyoshi. He opened the door for him and returned to complete his meal.

Kiyoshi was also taken aback by how monotonous the interior design of the house was but he kept his comments away from his lips and his face as he brought Haruki’s necessities to him.

The doctor was done getting ready for work just in time. The doctor went to eat his breakfast. He seemed to be in a hurry and Haruki felt the need to tell the man to leave in case the man was loitering in the living room waiting for permission to go.

"I will remember to close the door before I leave," Haruki had to reassure the doctor when he noticed him hesitating to leave.

"Okay," the doctor responded. That did not make him stop hesitating even as he turned to leave the house.

Haruki shook his head in amusement as he rose to clean up to properly begin his day. "Why does he look like he has anything valuable for me to steal here?" Haruki murmured as he walked to the room.

Kiyoshi heard his words and felt an urge to tell his boss that Hiroshi was not scared of theft but wanted something from Haruki he could not ask for.

As though he was a completely different person, Haruki’s demeanour became cold and purposeful when he walked out of the doctor’s house.

Haruki, in that state, did not bother to take note of the change that occurred as he scrolled through the tablet in the comfort of his car on the way to work.

His fingers stopped when he read a notification he just received. He reread the words before taping on it. The information was from his secretary.

It was only expected that this would happen but he did not expect the prime minister to not consider his position in a democratic country before carrying out such an act of vengeance.

His granduncle and son’s bodies were found in a canal in a slum area of the country they fled to. The police said they would investigate the case but Haruki was certain the security agencies knew what they were doing before letting such alleged criminals into their country.

His grand uncle’s older son’s body was not found though according to a report his secretary gave him. He knew he did not handle the issue as best as his grandfather would have handled it.

To appease a stranger, he had broken the trust of some of his family members. For him to have them lose their loved one in such an obviously disgraceful manner was something he was certain some of his family members would hate him for.
