Chapter Twenty-five:


“Alec, I'm so happy to see you,” Maya said as he gave the man a hug. “I missed you very much you know,” he added with a laugh.

“I missed you too boy, and I also missed your dad. Have you heard from him yet?” Alec asked.

“No, and I wish that he would send word to me soon. I am starting to worry about him Alec, ” Maya voiced his concern for his dad.

"I'm sure that he is fine Maya. Now how about I do a quick checkup to see how you and your baby are doing?" said Alec.

"Alright," Maya said, right before he walked over to the bed and lay down for Alec. As Alec checked to see how he and the baby were doing, Maya asked the man how his friend Saria was, since last he heard about his friend was that he had left for somewhere with a demon named Jarrett.

“I just received word from Jarrett, and you will be surprised Maya, it seems your friend is carrying Jarrett’s child,” answered Alec.

“Really?” Maya asked excitedly. He was happy for his friend.

Alec let out a small chuckle. “Yes. If Jarrett said that your friend is carrying his baby, then it must be his baby.”

“That is true Alec. Saria would never give himself away to any demon unless he really loves him. Jarrett is lucky to have won Saria’s love instead of his hatred,” remarked Maya with a smile as he pictured his pregnant friend.

“You and your baby seem to be doing fine Maya. The demon king will be glad to hear about this. Now why don't you come meet the man who stole my heart,” said Alec with a wide grin.

Maya eyes went wide open. “Oh! If daddy was here, he would want to meet him too since you guys are so close,” Maya commented as he followed Alec out of the room. Alec laughed and agreed to come back with Ian whenever Dan returned.

Dan gave Ramsey a hug when he arrived at Ramsey’s home. He was unaware that Alistair had followed him and was now witnessing him hugging Ramsey with a big smile on his face. Ramsey felt Alistair’s presence but chose to not to say anything to Dan. He pulled away from Dan and gave him a kiss on the lips. This startled Dan for a moment. Ramsey laughed and told Dan not to worry about it as he pulled Dan inside. A smirk came to his face right before he shut the door. His smirk was directed right at Alistair.

“Sit down Dan, I will be right back,” said Ramsey once he had Dan inside.

“Ramsey...”

“I know you have something important to talk to me about Dan, but it will have to wait. I have to take care of my unwanted visitor,” said Ramsey right before he left.

Unwanted visitor? Could it be...it had to be...Alistair! Dan bolted right out of his seat and raced out of the room. He couldn't believe that he had not taken better precaution when he decided to leave Alistair, knowing very well that Alistair was after Ramsey. He cursed himself for making such a mistake.

A very jealous Alistair had already crossed his sword with Ramsey when Dan arrived at the scene. Ramsey let go of his sword the moment Dan came into the scene, just as Alistair’s sword came right at him. Alistair’s sword went right through Ramsey’s chest. Alistair was too consumed by jealousy to notice that Dan had witnessed this until it was too late. Dan came running up to Ramsey and went down on his knees. He stared up at Alistair, his eyes filled with anger. He picked up Ramsey’s sword and stood up on his feet. He charged at Alistair with the sword.

Alistair remained standing where he was. He shut his eyes and waited for the sword to go through him, but it never did. He finally opened his eyes after a long moment of silence to see Dan’s tear filled eyes looking straight at him.

“What are you waiting for Dan? Kill me! Isn't that why you are holding that sword in your hand?” Alistair said in a calm voice, his eyes locked with Dan’s tearful ones as he dared Dan to kill him.

Dan tried once more, but he just couldn't bring himself to kill Alistair. He hesitated every time the sword in his hand came anywhere close to hurting Alistair. Finally he let the sword slip from his hand. He turned his back to Alistair and walked slowly back to the wounded Ramsey and helped him up. He turned to give Alistair one last sad look.

Alistair didn't miss the winning smirk on Ramsey’s face. It infuriated him. He had let Ramsey get the better of him. He had walked right into Ramsey’s trap and now Dan would hate him more than ever. Dan would never forgive him now he thought as the door closed, shutting him out and taking Dan away from him. “I won't let you win Ramsey. I will show Dan what you really are,” he said under his breath as his mind went to work on plans to take Ramsey down.

Dan sat silently beside Ramsey, his head filled with Alistair and what he had done today. A gentle hand covered his own. He looked up and gave a small smile to the wounded Ramsey. "I'm sorry Ramsey, I thought that I could change him, but I guess my love for him was not enough," he said softly.

Ramsey brushed Dan’s cheek with the back of his hand in a gentle loving manner. "You don't need a man like that Dan, you can do better than him. Alistair is beyond saving," said Ramsey right before he pulled Dan down gently toward his awaiting mouth. Dan was once more shocked with Ramsey’s action. He opened his mouth to say something. Ramsey slipped his tongue in right at that moment, rendering him speechless and shocking him even more. He pulled his mouth away from Ramsey and stared up at him with bewilderment, just as the servant came with some medicine for Ramsey.

Ramsey refused to take the medicine claiming that it was too bitter. Dan let out a soft laugh and offered to drink a portion of it, unaware of Ramsey’s plan for him. He took the bait just as Ramsey had planned. He took a sip of the medicine and right away he blacked out. The medicine slipped from his hand to the floor with a clang.

“Leave,” Ramsey ordered his servant. They left right away. Ramsey got off the bed. His wound was nowhere in sight. He was a fire phoenix, a little wound was nothing to him. His body would heal right away, which made it hard to kill him. He went over to the other side of the bed and picked Dan up. He put Dan onto the bed and started to remove his clothes. He removed his own clothes as well and climbed into bed next to Dan. “Sorry Dan. I have to use you to get to Alistair. Don't hate me for doing this. You of all people know how much I love my wife. I can't let her die just like that. You are my best friend but you are also the only one who can hurt Alistair,” he whispered softly just as Dan opened his eyes looking right at him. “Alistair,” a drugged up Dan said softly as his hand went up to cup Ramsey’s face thinking that it was Alistair.

Ramsey’s mouth went down and captured Dan’s mouth with his own. His hand slid down between Dan’s thighs and took a hold of Dan’s arousal. He stroked it nice and hard as he kissed Dan. A moan escaped from Dan’s mouth, “Oh.. Alistair...” moaned Dan as he gripped Ramsey’s hair tightly in a fist. Ramsey gently nudged Dan’s legs apart and eased himself slowly into Dan’s opening. He grunted at how tight Dan was right before he started to move inside of him.

“Oh..Ahhh.. Alis..tair... more! I want more Alistair....” cried Dan, urging Ramsey on thinking that he was Alistair.

“Aahhh!” Dan screamed out loud when he came a few seconds later. Ramsey came as well inside him. Dan snuggled up to Ramsey and whispered, “I love you Alistair,” right before falling into a deep sleep. Ramsey kissed Dan’s brow and whispered once more that he was sorry for doing this right, before he fell asleep also.

Tears were running down Dan’s face the next day when he woke up to find himself sleeping next to Ramsey naked. The evidence of what had occurred last night still lingered in the room. He pressed his crying face into the white pillow and continued to slam his fist into the side of the pillow, cursing himself for cheating on Alistair. No matter how angry at Alistair he was, he would never cheat on the man he loved. He could not remember what happened last night and why it led to him cheating on Alistair. A comforting hand stroked his soft hair. He lifted his head up to look at Ramsey.

“Why? How?” Dan uttered.

“It just happened Dan, don't cry,” Ramsey whispered.

“Alistair is going to be furious Ramsey. He is going to kill you when he learns about what we did!”

“There is no way Alistair will find out about this Dan. I promise,” Ramsey said, as he pulled Dan into his chest. He rested his chin on top of Dan’s head, and allowed the smirk to come on to his face.
