Till Our Hearts Cross 👨❤️💋👨 💏

Introduction

Ken's POV

I relentlessly pounded the bag during our routine drills, while the jokers I called colleagues; Arm, Pete, and Big, goofed off with Pol.

Despite their distractions, I remained laser-focused. With just one year left in my three-year contract, I could taste freedom. It was literally the end of the tunnel.

The prospect of leaving behind the world of the Mafia, where I had toiled for years, filled me with anticipation.

All I yearned for was to return home and pursue my passion for sociology, possibly dabbling in IT like my siblings and living a stress free and danger-free life. It has been long enough.

Although the job had been lucrative and helped settle my family's debts, my desire to break free had grown stronger over time.

With our debts paid off and savings accumulated, I was ready to embark on my university journey without the need for a part-time job.

Until July, however, I remained fully committed to my duties, training rigorously and fulfilling my responsibilities diligently.

I was at the tail end of my drills when the silent alarm rang. Ah damn, we were needed. I grabbed my shirt, slipped it on, and grabbed my gun along the way as I ran off with the boys. We reported to the drawing room where Kinn was with his dad and Porsche plus Vegas flanking him. My eyes narrowed. Vegas hardly came by, so why was he here? These two were forever fighting, so it was weird to see him here.

"We have a situation. P Thun is privy to the fact that Macau and Chay are both studying at Kasetart University. Both boys have been well protected so far, but recent shenanigans by them have put their protection in jeopardy. We all know how P Thun is out for our blood, so this will be the opportunity he desperately seeks. And we can not let him have it. Both boys are being sent to the airport and will be flown out to different countries as I speak for a while. But it does not mean we can rest easy. They have to be protected all the way. Vegas, Porsche Pete, and Big will be going to Paris to keep an eye on Macau. Pol, Ken, Arm, and I will be going to Geneva to keep an eye on Chay. I know its not an easy decision for Porsche, but we can not be assured they will not attack him, so we have to split the brothers up. I would like to split Macau and Vegas up too, but it will be stretching it, and Vegas isn't taking it for an option, so we make do. Get your passports, pack light and be ready in 1 hour. We will fly out on our private jets. Clear?"

We all nodded grimly. I don't think Kinn was asking for our opinion, but he was telling us what to do. We all separated to head to our respective rooms to pack.

Vegas's POV

I couldn't help but pace the room instead. I had just grabbed a bag, thrown in some shirts and jeans, and grabbed my passport. I was mad worried, thinking about Macau. He was all I have, and knowing he was in imminent danger was making me lose control, and I hated that feeling. I heard a knock on my door, and I opened it to see Pete standing there hesitantly. "Ready?" He asked. I nodded. Ever since we had ended things, we didn't speak much, plus our professional paths didn't cross. I swapped out Pete for Porsche as my security detail instead, so things will not be so awkward between us. And yet, we found ourselves in this situation again. But it was for Macau. I grabbed my bag, and Pete took it from me. I walked on behind him and met up with Porsche and Big where our jet was awaiting. We boarded it after bading goodbye to Kinn and the rest. But before I left, I looked at Kinn and mumbled, "Be safe." He was surprised by that but just nodded grimly.
At this stage, no matter how much I hated him at times, it didn't mean I wanted him dead. If he was dying or being hurt, it had to be because of me and not a third party. We both were weirdly protective of each other like that. I sighed as I boarded the jet, just silently starting to count down the hours before I could see Macau again.
