(Next chapter: Identity reveal โ€” Jayden is a girl, not a boy)

Jay's POV

I slipped through the front door a little before nine, the house wrapped in a quiet that felt almost merciful. Dad was goneโ€”on that trip with Tita Reyceeโ€”and for once I was grateful. If he had been waiting, there would have been questions I couldn't answer. Why I was this late. Why my phone had been switched off for hours. I went straight to my room.

Percy was already there.

The second the door opened he was on his feet.

"Baby sistahhhhh! Where were you? It's so late. Kiefer and Yuri said they couldn't find you at school. They called so many times. I called too. I was so worried."

I forced my voice into something that sounded normal.

"It's nothing, Percy. I went to meet Jonathan and Sophia. They hardly ever get the chance to visit. I skipped afternoon classes, had lunch with them, then we went to Kings Ground for karaoke."

His expression softened, but the concern stayed.

"You could've told me. I would've joined. It's been forever since I saw them. And why didn't you pick up my calls?"

"My phone died."

He mouthed a quiet "oh," still watching me too closely. I steered the conversation away before he could dig deeper.

"By the way..." I managed a teasing smile that felt paper-thin. "How was the meet-up with your friends?"

That did it. Excitement lit up his whole face. He launched into the storyโ€”how shocked everyone had been, how crazy it all feltโ€”and I nodded in the right places, smiling when I was supposed to. But I wasn't really there. His voice faded into the background as my mind slipped backward, pulled under by the conversation that had broken something inside me only hours earlier.

Flashbackย (in the private room with Jay's grandfather)

The dim light of the private room cast long shadows across the polished wood, but nothing could soften the weight of the truth CC was laying bare.

"So, CC..." My voice came out quieter than I intended. "You mean you made everyone believe you were dead... because they were all circling L&C Enterprises like vultures?"

I paused, frowning. "But how would they even get our internal information? Except for a handful of people and the board members, no one actually knew anything."

CC's eyes, sharp even after all these years, held mine. "Jay... think again. You're right. No one outside that circle would ever touch us. Our company bids stay strictly between our inner members."

The implication hit me like a physical blow. My eyes widened.

"So you mean... someone has been leaking information. And it could be one of our trusted members."

CC only nodded, slow and heavy.

"Then what?" I asked, the words barely a whisper.

"I wouldn't have cared if everything was only about me," he said, voice low and steady. "But they knew I had a granddaughter. They knew I was raising you to be the next successor. I didn't want anyone to know your name or your face until you signed the legal papers and took the position of CEO. They know my granddaughter's name is Luna. They never knew your real name."

I swallowed hard. "I see... so you've been hiding here in Korea, in our real main branch. Then what about the London one?"

A soft, almost bitter laugh escaped him. "That's how I play the game, Jay. Except for you, me, and my personal assistant, no one knows that the true main branch is in Korea. Everyone still believes L&C Enterprises' headquarters was in London. For the past four years it's been running under my assistant's name."

I nodded slowly, piecing it together. "I understand everything... but why has no one taken over L&C Enterprises if the owner and CEO has been 'absent' for nearly four years? Even if London is just a branch now, its market value is still the same as Mariano's."

"Because the board members are tearing each other apart over who will become CEO," he answered. "No one can secure a majority when every single one of them is voting for themselves. And more importantly... they couldn't find a single legal team willing to force the company to dissolve. I've been feeding money to every major firm every month so they keep delaying the case. As long as money speaks, no one can touch what's yours."

I closed my eyes for a moment, absorbing it all.

"So the assistant is the CEO now?"

"In their eyes, yes. They don't know I'm alive. They don't know that you are already the successorโ€”on paper, signed and sealed. It's only a matter of time. Jay... you are the true owner of L&C Enterprises. And I have complete faith in you. I want you to crush them. Take back everything that belongs to us."

"I will try my best, CC," I said, the promise settling heavy in my chest. Then the question I had been holding back finally broke free.

"But tell me one thing... why didn't you contact Dad?"

CC's face shifted. For the first time that night, he looked truly uncomfortableโ€”almost fragile.

"CC. Answer me." My voice cracked. "I don't want to stay in the dark anymore."

Silence stretched between us. Then he spoke, so softly I almost missed it.

"You sure you want to hear it, Jay? Because after this... you might never look at your dad the same way again."

I swallowed hard. My throat already felt tight.

"Yes."

He drew in a long, steadying breath.

"Jay... you don't really know your father. Not the way you think you do. If I'm not wrong, he told you to take life simply. That you could join the company if you wanted... and if you didn't, he would never force you."

"Yeah," I whispered.

"Then listen carefully." His eyes never left mine. "In Mariano Corporation... your name isn't in the will at all. You aren't even listed as a shareholder. Not a single share. Not a single mention."

The words hit like ice water. I stared at him, stunned. It wasn't that I had ever hungered for the shares... but the absence of my name felt like being erased.

"CC... that can't be right. Dad would neverโ€”"

"I knew you wouldn't believe me." He reached into the drawer and slid a thin file across the desk. "Look for yourself."

My hands trembled as I opened it.

There, in clean black ink, were only two names under the Mariano shares: Percy and Aries.

Not even a single letter of mine.

I felt the blood drain from my face.

CC's voice softened, but it didn't lose its edge. "Do you believe me now?"

I could barely speak. "It's... it's not like I wanted it..."

He cut me off, eyes flashing.

"What do you mean you don't want it? Jay, it's yours by blood. You are a Mariano. You have the same right as Percy and Aries. And Percy isn't even a legal Mariano yetโ€”your father still hasn't married her mother."

My voice came out thin. "Then why... why did he leave me out?"

CC's expression darkened with something that looked like old, bitter knowledge.

"Because you are a girl. He believes that once you marry, the Mariano shares will simply pass into your husband's family. He refuses to risk that."

The air left my lungs.

I stared at him, throat burning. "Is there... anything else I need to know?"

He hesitated. For the first time that night, his hands trembled. Then he spoke, the words falling like stones.

"You are engaged."

Everything stopped.

The room, the light, even my own heartbeat.

I couldn't have heard that right.

"Excuse me... Grandpa?"

"You heard me correctly." His voice was low, almost apologetic. "Your father arranged it. For investment. To secure a powerful alliance."

The ground beneath me seemed to crack open.

I heard myself laughโ€”a broken, hollow soundโ€”while tears already spilled down my cheeks.

"Grandpa... you're joking. Please tell me you're joking. You picked the worst possible moment to start being a comedianโ€”"

"I'm not lying, Jay."

The last of my composure shattered.

"Grandpa, tell me it's a lie!" I choked, voice cracking into sobs. "I... I love Keifer. Why would I be engaged to anyone else? Why did no one tell me? Why would Dad do this?"

He moved around the desk and pulled me into his arms. I clung to him, sobbing so hard I could barely breathe.

"I love him," I cried against his shoulder, the words spilling out broken and desperate. "I've only ever loved Keifer. From the very beginning. I don't want to marry anyone else. I can'tโ€”"

"I know," he whispered, stroking my hair. "I know, my girl. And that's exactly why I'm telling you now."

I pulled back just enough to look at him, tears still streaming.

"Who...?" My voice broke. "Who am I engaged to?"

CC's eyes held mine, heavy with the weight of the truth.

"Yuri Hanamitchi. The heir of the Hanamitchi clan."

A broken sound tore from my throat.

"Yuri doesn't even know yet," CC continued quietly. "But I don't know how much longer the Hanamitchi family will keep it from him. You must not tell Keifer anything. Not yet."

"Grandpa, please," I begged, voice raw. "Help me break it. Keifer will be heartbroken. That idiot will cry himself to death if he finds out. Please..."

He cupped my face, forcing me to meet his eyes.

"Jay. Breathe. Listen to me. You still have months. And once you take your place as CEO of L&C Enterprises... ending this engagement will be the easiest thing in the world. You will break it yourself. On your own terms."

I tried to stop the hiccuping sobs, but they kept coming.

"But why?" I whispered. "Why would Dad do this to me?"

Grandpa looked at me for a long, heavy moment. Something old and cold settled in his gaze.

Then he spoke the final truth.

"To settle a score with the Watsons."

Flashback ends.

I was still lost inside that memory when Percy's voice dragged me back.

"Baby sistahhhhhhhhh! Why are you spacing out? I've been calling you forever!"

I blinked. Only then did I realize tears had gathered in my eyes again. I forced a small smile, trying to sound normal.

"Nothing, Percy. Just... thinking about some things. But I'm glad you were finally reunited."

He grinned, though there was a soft sadness underneath it. "Yeah. I just wish we could go back to how we used to be."

I nodded, already stepping toward my door. "I'm tired. I had dinner with them earlier. I'm going to sleep."

"Goodnight, baby sistahhhhh. Sweet dreams."

The second the door clicked shut behind him, I slid down against it and let the tears fall freely.

No more pretending. No more holding it in.

"Why, Dad..." My voice cracked into the empty room, raw and broken. "Why the fuck did you have to break my trust like this?"

Keifer's POVย 

I came back home still feeling like I was in a different universe... I couldn't believe Percy was alive... He told us how he survived, but he didn't say who the person was who paid for his treatment in New York... Never mind....ย 

But the main matter was that I couldn't find Jay after recess. It was like she had evaporated... After talking with Percy, when I went back to class, I couldn't find her... I called her... It was switched off... Maybe she is flustered... Damn, my princess is easy to get flustered... It's okay... I will make her more flustered.... Let's see how many times she can run away from me....ย 

After dinner, while heading towards my room... I stopped in front of my parents' room. No doubt they have been acting weird... I shook my thoughts away and went to my room....

Jay's POV (next morning)

I came to school even though I hadn't slept all night... I had thought a lot about it, and I was sure I would fight for everything... because I wasn't going to lose Keifer like this. And about the engagement...ย once I sit in the CEO position..I will make sure the first ever thing I sign is the engagement-breaking paper... I have to make sure Keifer doesn't get to know about anything... because he might end up doing something crazy...

While entering school, I saw Keifer heading towards the classroom while talking on the phone... I went closer and realised he was talking to maybe one of his friends... Suddenly an idea came to my mind... You, Watson... you have teased me so much yesterday... now it's my turn, baby....

I slipped into the hallway just as Keifer walked past the old storage room, phone pressed to his ear, voice low and casual as he talked to whoever was on the other end. Perfect.

My heart was pounding, but the heat in my stomach was stronger. Yesterday he had pinned me against that wall in storage room and made me come so hard I almost forgot my own name. Now it was my turn.

I waited until he was right in front of the door, then grabbed his wrist and yanked him inside. The door shut with a soft click. Before he could even process it, I shoved him back against the shelves and pressed my body flush against his, trapping him there while his phone was still glued to his ear.

His eyes went wide. "โ€”yeah, I'm listening," he said into the phone...

"What theโ€” Jay? What are youโ€”" he started under his breath, completely thrown....

I smirked and said just enough for only him to hear.

"Good morning, baby boy..."๐ŸŒš

He froze.... but his free hand immediately grabbed my waist like he was trying to push me away. I didn't let him.

I leaned in until my lips brushed the shell of his ear and whispered, dark and slow, "You made me soak my panties in the middle of class yesterday, Watson... now you're going to stand here and take it, baby boy."

He stiffened hard. I felt the exact second his body registered what I was doing.

On the other end of the line a guy's voice came through clearly. "Keif? You good, man? You just went quiet."

Keifer's throat bobbed. "Yeah... I'm fine. Just walked into something."

I smirked against his neck.

I rolled my hips once, slow and deliberate, grinding the soft heat between my legs right against the front of his pants. He was already half-hard. Good.

"Jayโ€”" he started under his breath, voice tight with warning.

I nipped the side of his neck, hard enough to make him jolt. "Keep talking," I breathed against his skin. "Don't you dare hang up."

My tongue dragged up the column of his throat, tasting salt and the faint scent of his cologne. I bit down just under his jaw and sucked, marking him while my hips kept moving in lazy, filthy circles. His cock thickened fast against me, growing harder with every slow grind.

The friend on the phone asked again, sounding concerned. "You sure? You sound weird as hell right now."

Keifer forced a short, strained laugh. "I...I'm good. Just... d...distracted. What w...were you saying?"

I smiled against his skin. Distracted. Cute.

My hand slid down his stomach, over the hard planes of muscle, until my fingers reached his belt. I popped the button open. The sound of the zipper lowering was obscenely loud in the quiet room.

Keifer's breath hitched. His free hand clenched tighter on my hip.

"Don't," he mouthed at me, eyes flashing a warning,ย but his hips twitched forward the second my fingers brushed the hot length of him through his boxers.

I slipped my hand inside and wrapped my fingers around his cock, thick and already leaking at the tip. He was burning hot against my palm. I gave him one slow stroke from base to head, thumb swirling over the wet slit, and watched his jaw lock so hard a muscle jumped in his cheek.

"Fuck..." he whispered, so quiet the person on the phone couldn't hear.

I pressed my mouth to his ear again, voice pure filth. "You felt so good when you made me come on your fingers yesterday, baby boy... now you're going to come in my hand while you're still on this call. And you're going to stay quiet like a good boy for me."

I started stroking him properlyโ€”tight, steady, twisting my wrist just the way I knew would ruin him. His cock pulsed in my grip, getting wetter with every pull. I ground my thighs against his, letting him feel how soaked I already was, while my mouth worked along his neck: open-mouthed kisses, sharp little bites, tongue tracing the places that made his breath stutter.

Keifer's free hand slammed against the shelf behind him. His voice on the phone stayed almost steady, but I could hear the strain cracking through.

"Yeah... I'll check o..on that l..later," he said, trying so hard to sound normal.

The friend pushed again. "Dude, for real, are you okay? You're breathing weird."

Keifer's eyes locked on mine, dark and desperate. "I'mย f..fine," he forced out. "Just... thinking a...about something."

I smirked wider and whispered right against his lips, "Thinking about how hard you made me shake in class? Or thinking about how you're about to paint my hand white while your friend is still talking?"๐ŸŒš

I squeezed harder, pumping him faster, thumb pressing under the head on every upstroke. His hips started moving without permission, fucking into my fist in short, desperate thrusts. I could feel how close he was alreadyโ€”his cock twitching, the wet sound of my hand working him getting louder.

I licked the corner of his mouth, then bit his lower lip just hard enough to sting.

"You're throbbing so hard for me, baby boy," I whispered against his lips. "All that control you love so much... and you're seconds away from coming in my hand like a desperate little mess while someone else is still on the line."

His eyes squeezed shut. A low, broken sound almost escaped his throat before he swallowed it down hard.

I stroked him faster, tighter, twisting at the tip the way that always made him lose it. My other hand slid under his shirt, nails dragging lightly over his abs. I pressed my body fully against him, grinding my soaked core against his thigh while I jerked him off in the dark little room.

"Jayโ€”fuckโ€”" he breathed, so quiet it was almost a prayer.

I felt him swell in my hand. His whole body went rigid.

"Come for me," I ordered against his ear, voice pure dark velvet. "Right now. Quietly. Be good for me, baby boy."

He broke.

A hard, silent shudder ripped through him as he came, thick ropes of heat spilling over my fingers and down his cock. I kept stroking him through it, milking every pulse until his knees almost gave out. He bit down hard on his own lip to stay quiet, forehead dropping against mine, breathing like he'd just run a mile.

I slowed my hand, smearing the mess over the sensitive head just to watch him twitch. Then I brought my fingers up between us, locked eyes with him, and slowly licked his cum off my handโ€”tongue dragging over each finger, tasting the salt of him while he watched, still half-hard and wrecked.

On the phone, the other person was wrapping up.

Keifer's voice was rough when he answered, "Yeah...a...alright. Talkย l..later."

He was just about to say goodbye when I leaned in one last time, lips brushing his ear, and whispered sweetly...

"You taste so fucking good, baby boy... thick, salty, and completely mine. I could get addicted to this. Bye. Make sure to zip that up... unless you want round two and want everyone in class to know that President Keifer Watson got fucked in the storage room."๐ŸŒš

Then I shoved the door open and walked out, leaving him standing there with his pants open, cock still wet and twitching, and my marks all over his neck.

Revenge had never tasted so good.๐ŸŒโ™ฅ๏ธ
