"Run, Andrei, run!" Qiao said to his mate, his voice so empty and devoid of emotions. It was almost like he didn't remember that the man before home was his damned mate. They had been together for months now and he still looked different.
Something was amiss and Drew could feel it when his mate told him to run. Nikita, Carrie, and Ken broke off running when Qiao had told them to, but Drew didn't. Instead, he stood there, like a lost statue, as if he was figuring out something.
Drew stood there in shock and a surpassed face taking over his ever so-beautiful features. Qiao never called him Andrei. Not even when they were mad at each other.
He would always use the term 'sweetheart', though, aggressively but that's how Drew always knew that his mate was mad at him. But he never used Andrei, ever.
