Fallen Deep

♠ ♠ ♠

Daniel hid his face in panic. Laotian had something he needed to talk to with the head manager of the hotel so Daniel waited at the lounge by the lobby. And as he was waiting, he didn't expect Paul and Daniella to walk in the area. Daniella had gone to the toilet room and coincidentally Paul saw him, he called abruptly but as he saw Daniel's stomach he hesitated to call again.

Daniel quickly stood up and run towards where Laotian had gone. Subconsciously Paul runs after him, which made Daniel panic even more than he already was.

The last person Daniel wanted to tell that he's pregnant is the two. Daniel was on the verge of crying when Laotian caught him quickly hiding the Omega on his arms.

Laotian ran a background check of Daniel before and of course, he knew who Paul Hymlyn was. Even though nobody knew the relationship between the two, his private investigator discovered it easily as it's said that the man frequented at the Omega's apartment.

When Mo Laotian caught Daniel on his arms, Paul had seen it. Laotian and Paul had an eye contact so Paul walked to them to greet. He knew Mo Laotian since he was also a businessman, no businessman in the country that doesn't know or heard about Mo Laotian.

Only a few people outside the Mo Empire had seen Mo Laotian in person and if not because Paul followed Daniella before during her blind date with the business tycoon, he wouldn't have recognized the Alpha.

"Mr. Mo, I'm Paul Hymlyn from the Hymlyn Corporation, it's an honor to have finally meet you. I apologize for scaring your partner, I thought he was someone I knew." Paul raises his hands for a handshake but the Godlike tycoon didn't bother looking and instead he was more worried about Daniel who's still hugging him.

Just before Laotian was about to dismiss Paul Hymlyn Daniella suddenly came surprised.

"Mr. Mo? Hi, it's nice to meet you again." Daniella sweetly said, her eyes didn't escape from Laotian when she looked at Daniel in disgust. She was thinking why would someone like an Omega hug Mo Laotian? If it weren't because Mo Laotian had firmly rejected her before, this man in front of her would have been hers already.

She would have become a true winner in life if she managed to get a man like the business tycoon. But because she was twice rejected, she changed her target and went for Paul who have been pursuing her since highschool.

But who would have thought a mere Omega could beat her from taking Mo Laotian. She was jealous and wanted to rip the Omega's away from Laotian. If even she couldn't get Mo Laotian, nobody should even dare claim him.

"What happened!?" Seeing no reaction from the Alpha, she asked Paul what happened. When Paul explained what happened, Daniella immediately eyed the Omega hugging Mo Laotian.

Quickly, she was shocked to realize that the Omega's features were exactly the same as Daniel's aside from the fact that the Omega she was seeing now was pregnant. Despite this, she called for Daniel's name to see a reaction. "Daniel? Is that you?" Daniella called curiously.

Daniel didn't respond and only tightened his grip on Laotian. Just before Daniella could confirm and call again. The air around had become frigid and waves of tension emanated from Mo Laotian.

Daniella's words stuck on her throat as the tension made her uncomfortable. She could feel the chills down her spine. It almost felt like her knees would start to shake if she didn't get away from the area.

Not wasting any more time with the two, Mo Laotian lifted Daniel on his arms and rush out leaving the two without talking.

"He is exactly what those in the article described him to be," Paul whispered. Daniella, on the other hand, had a bad feeling about the Omega Mo Laotian had embraced and guarded. As if he was purposely hiding the Omega's face from them to see.

Not knowing why? She already hated the Omega like she hated her twin brother who knew nothing but to act innocent while sleeping with older men.

Finally away from the two, "Are you okay?" Laotian asked worriedly seeing the pale expression on Daniel's face.

"I'm sorry. I just couldn't face those two at the moment." Daniel replied defeated.

"Thank you, Laotian, for protecting me." Daniel gazed at Laotian gratefully. He would not have escaped from there without Mo Laotian.

"I told you I wouldn't let anyone hurt you." Laotian lovingly held Daniel's cheeks. He leaned over and claimed the Omega's pale lips. He sucked on those soft lips so passionately that when they separated, the color on Daniel's face and lips finally came back to its rich pinkish hue.

"That's more like it." Laotian gasped causing Daniel to smile sweetly. Daniel finally recovered and the two soon headed to Daniel's apartment at Secada. Thankfully Daniel always put his keys in his wallet so they got inside his apartment without a problem.

Daniel was busy packing a few of his clothes and art materials when he didn't know Laotian had gone through his sketchpads.

"I see, you've drawn me a couple of times already." Laotian teased seeing the sketchpad almost filled with Laotian's portrait. It was only rough sketches, but it was Mo Laotian on the drawings.

"Oh My God! Give that back to me. Those are private." Daniel blushed a deep shade of red as he ran towards Mo Laotian and snatch the sketchpad away. Just when he snatched the sketchpad, Laotian revealed another one filled with his portrait again, but this time in watercolor. The lines were more defined and Daniel skillfully picked the exact expression Laotian had given him that time.

"Laotian, give it to me." Daniel became even redder as he hides his face with the sketchpad he's holding. Thankfully, Laotian didn't tease him anymore and gave Daniel the sketchpad.

"I've seen a couple more in your art room," Laotian revealed that he have seen everything including the unfinished oil painting of Laotian's portrait. In fact, when Daniel bumped into Hanlu and Laotian that time in the lobby. He couldn't forget Laotian's glaring expression that he had to draw and paint it in different mediums.

After meeting the Alpha again at the hospital, he drew and painted him a lot more not realizing he has already 4 sketchpads laying with only Laotian's face. It proved that Laotian left a deep impression on Daniel that he couldn't forget.

"I-I just enjoy sketching and painting those that left me with a deep impression. I-I'm not obsessed or anything." Daniel explained chewing on his lips. Seeing Daniel making excuses, Laotian pulled him into a hug.

"I know. And even if you're obsessed, I wouldn't mind at all."

"I'm not obsessed." Daniel pouted. Laotian this time couldn't help but chuckle with Daniel's reaction. When Daniel heard the Alpha laugh, he frowns throwing a punch on his shoulders.

"Don't laugh. It's embarrassing." Laotian continued to tease Daniel and even asked to bring the sketches along. If only he could frame all of it, he would but he knew that the Omega won't agree so he wanted to take the sketchpad instead for safekeeping.

Daniel gave his sketchpad to Laotian but kept mumbling while he continued packing.

Meanwhile, although Laotian knew that Paul Hymlyn and Daniel had broken up, he couldn't help but feel upset seeing over 10 sketchpads with Paul's portraits.

There were different kinds of expressions and Daniel had sketched it so well as to even pick up the emotions of the person in the picture.

Laotian didn't realize Daniel finished packing. He walked to the Alpha and hugged him from the side.

"I've been with him for four years that's why it piled up to this many. I was going to throw it away but suddenly I discovered I was pregnant and completely forgot about it. If you want, I can throw it away now. I've completely moved on from him. I felt nothing towards him now." Daniel breathed lifting his chin to look at Laotian's upset expression.

When Laotian heard Daniel's explanation, he immediately felt relieved and lean forward to give his lover another kiss. Daniel could feel Laotian's emotions through the kisses and he couldn't help but be overwhelmed. The Alpha's feelings towards him were so deep and he was falling into it.

Just when their lips separate Daniel whispered the words that Laotian wanted to hear the most.

"Laotian, I love you," Daniel whispered softly. If the room wasn't silent enough, Laotian wouldn't have been able to hear it. Overwhelmed by the sudden emotions, Laotian immediately lifted Daniel into his arms and carried towards the bedroom.

"You have been stirring my emotions in every possible way. How are you supposed to pay me back? I haven't been the same since I've met you." In Laotian's mind, it wasn't possible to fall deeply in love in less than a month but now that he's experiencing it, he still couldn't believe he fell for Daniel that fast.

He fell so deep that he was not willing to give up Daniel no matter what, anymore.

"You can do whatever you want to me. My heart isn't mine anymore. If it's you, I wouldn't mind hurting." Daniel caresses the Alpha's face towering him. They were in an intimate position. Daniel's body isn't in a good shape but whatever Laotian decided to do, Daniel will gladly accept it.

"Daniel, I won't ever hurt you for as long as I live. You have completely stolen this icy heart of mine. I didn't think I would be able or even capable of loving someone. I didn't think it was possible but I love you, with all my heart." Laotian said with all his feelings. He didn't think he could say such corny words but now he did.

Only for Daniel.

"Laotian, let's get married." The words that came out of Daniel's lips completely brought Laotian to the heavens. He immediately claimed Daniel's lips and kissed him deeply, passionately. He wanted to make Daniel feel how deeply he had fallen for him.
