Distrust

Rushing to the door anxiously he saw Alex his blue eyes blood shot and spilling with silent tears. A gun on the floor beside him, a large black mark and indent in the marble floor.

Blankly staring at him as tears flicked from his long lashes, unable to comprehend how angry he was feeling right now.

"I'm just a dog. Unable to tell. Whether what I've been given. Is food or dog shit." Reiterating Hayatos words.

Edwards face paled as he saw his son standing there,his clenched jaw dripping with tears. Bloodshot eyes crazed watched him with unlimited anger and disappointment.

"Alex... how much did you hear?", his mother asked cautiously struggling to speak.

Edward not bothering to hide turned his face away expressionlessly, sitting down stiffly. An air of cold and ruthlessness as he commanded him.

"Alexander, What is most important to you- your family or that girl?"

"She's also apart of my family." He said snatching the gun off the ground staggering.

"Then who would you choose in a life or death situation?"

"She's a Nakamura." Implying that the situation would never go to that extent, knowing they'd protect her better than he could.

"It's exactly because she's a Nakamura that they don't want you fucking up the rest of her life!" Shouting as his fist slammed through the glass coffee table.

Pulling the trigger as another gun shot fell, "Then what about the both of you? Has my life been bright and rosy? You've lied to me since I was seventeen." His words making him flinch.

"Alexan-"

"Father... Mother, am I really your son? Then tell me who would you choose- Yuto Nakamura or the person standing in front of you." Placing the gun against the side of his head.

Looking away in despair as Caroline cried, pulling on his hand. Begging him to stop.

"Mother." He said incredibly cold, "Why can't you tell me the truth?" Stepping away from her.

Placing her hand out pitifully as tears fell. "Me and her mother were kidnapped when she was pregnant. Yuki was found half dead and barely breathing when she was 15... is it so wrong to want to forget it all?" Placing trembling, sweaty hands on his face.

"But she forget her mother who genuinely loved and didn't hurt her... Alex our family is being targeted and we don't know who they are." Her warm fingers making his eyes blank, the gun falling to the ground with a thud. "You may hate Yuto and Hayato but shes being protected for once in her life, but don't forget he lost his wife and also thought he lost his second child."

"Am I wrong for saying we don't deserve her?" Smiling bitterly as she wiped his swollen eyes. "He also works in the line as you and your father, so try to understand how he feels because he wants to kill whoever did that to him."

"Alexander." His deep voice echoing, "I'm not telling you to live this way because I hate you, perhaps I was wrong- but I don't regret it."

"He wants you to divorce her and perhaps because you'll be busy with what's being happening, you won't be able to spend much time together."

"He cares a lot about his daughter, so make her want to stay." He said finally.

Dressed in comfortable clothes, a hoodie covering his head, Alex waiting in the lobby for the car to take him back to the airport. Squinting at the bright light his head pounding, clearly hungover from the intense self indulgence of Alcohol and tobacco.

It was fine if he didn't see Yuki although he wanted to-desperately, but he didn't know how to face her confidently. Without the intense feeling of longing and depression taking over, immense guilt over what he had done. Despite his lack of memory.

'I'm never going to let you go. Your mine.' His eyes sparkling with possessiveness.

Being led out by a small group of bodyguards, he frowned as the sounds of traffic vibrated in his sensitive ears.

Noticing a familiar sleek all black car, with tinted bulletproof windows was trying to get out of the hotel. He heard the rapid discussion of a group of wealthy young teens, as they gushed over the car in succession.

"Look I told you it's been redesigned by Eclipse, oh fuck- it's the newly released Lotus as well!" The kid educated, pointing at the eclipse insignia- a hazy glistening of light being covered by a black moon.

"It's overrated, how is it any different from just buying the lotus?" Alex paused even though the car had already arrived.

"That's why your a basic bitch Jack." He sighed in despair over his ignorance. "That's why it's redesigned, the dude basically pays car companies for the blue prints and coding for the technology used. Then he pulls apart what he doesn't like, like the colour, or the engine. Or even the fabric of the seats. This guy got mad connections."

"That's just being high key."

"The fuck are you talking about? People only know about Eclipse because an executive from Bugatti begged him to redesign a car for him." Giving him an annoyed look, pulling out his phone to take a video to post on social media later.

Listening to it all, Alex frowned. Thinking about how much a certain 21 year-old could possibly be paid. Having also a fascination in cars, but only skin deep. If it looked good and drove fast to his preferences he'd buy it, not really caring about the why or the how in a cars production.

He couldn't help but check those who were around him, especially now when people were trying to make a move on him and his family. This time he would protect Yuki and he was hoping Z would willingly help him.

He couldn't help be curious,he gave a quick text to Nico asking how much he could find about Eclipse and his relationship with the Nakamuras. A bit of hatred and loathing for them for hiding her away from him, Yuto Nakamura specifically forcing his parents to dance his tune.

France, Midnight

"Did we manage to catch all of those rat bastards?" Alex asked sinisterly wiping the blood of his face with a handkerchief.

"It's an internal affair." Nico said quietly as they entered a large and mostly empty apartment. "Boss we've managed to catch Diego, he was hiding at one of his mistresses house.

"They're not happy how I'm doing things are they? Diego that piece of fucking shit, what have you been doing behind my back." He said to himself, his muscular body tensed as he imagined the best way to torture the fuck out of that disloyal bastard.

Walking around the apartment, ignoring the blood soaked shirt from the shallow cut on his abdomen.

"How's the security at this place?" He commanded, the task of making their home a perfect and safe haven for Yuki his complete priority.

"Well I figured you wouldn't want cameras in your own apartment, so they'll be a bunch of guys working and patrolling around." Scratching his head. "I'm not sure whether she'll go out and find a job or work at home so..."

"It's fine." Pleased at the open plan and large kitchen.

"But I don't know whether Jacqueline will be fine with it." He asked ambiguously.

A black look on his face as he curled his lip in complete disgust.

"The woman I'm marrying is Yuki Nakamura, I and Jacqueline have no relationship regardless of what she or others may think or disagree with" He said looking out through the large balcony doors.

"All she should be thinking about is whether or not her father won't be killed after having my fun. After all he fucked one of the Stans women and bragged about our private drug dealing." A bright ridiculing look in his blizzard like blue eyes.

"Focused on trying to enter the Auclair mansion whilst we out of the country? That bastard was trying to find the seal." He said in realisation as Nico gasped.

Rubbing his thumb against the side of his black diamond ring where a small button was.

"I wonder what he wanted to hand over to those Russian fuckers."
