Chapter:-28
Ray fell asleep to Bright story and woke the next morning to Ash sitting in the nearby chair with his feet propped on the bed.
“Where’s Papa?”
“Good morning to you too. Bright is currently reselecting all the gurds on this place. He wanted to wait for you to wake up first, but his own paranoia got to him.”
“He’s not good at just sitting around,” Ray confirmed.
Ash sat up and stretched. He reached over to where a tray filled with bottles had been placed on the end table. “Medicine first.”
Ray downed what was handed to him. “How long was I out?”
“You made it a whole six hours this time,” Ash replied. “Shirt off, so I can redo your bandages.”
“We could wait for Papa to come in here and do his by own and done thing.”
“Except he needs to reserve all the time he can while Monika is out there, and I happen to be an e

Ray wasn’t ready. He found that out right in front of the door when his heart suddenly felt as if it had come back to life and was trying to jump right out of his chest. Bright was supporting him because his body was still refusing to fully cooperate. He was actually walking like the seventy plus years he was rather than the fifteen that he looked.“Small steps,” Bright whispered in his ear, and Ray was very glad that they were alone because he didn’t think he could stand anyone else seeing what a mess he had become. “I’m here. I can easily stop any problems that might occur, but we both know Ash would never risk your safety.”Ray released a long unnecessary breath. “It has been a long time since I have felt the like this, going outside by my own.”“I know.”Ray nodded. “I believe I am ready now.”“Then we will go.” Bright opened the door revealing

Ray got the brief summary of things even with Bright trying to gloss things over. "My darling boy, it's not something you should be worried about. Please allow me to handle this.""I just want to be informed.""It's better than him trying to sneak out to see for himself," Ash murmured.Bright sighed. "You're right."Ash bent down and kissed Bright. "I'm needed out there.""I will join you soon," Bright replied. "Stay safe, my Ash."Ash nodded and after a moment of hesitation reached over and squeezed Ray shoulder in a silent parting.Bright watched it all with amusement. "Do you mind it? I know we tease and joke, but-""He's the best relationship you've ever had, and if you were going to spend your life with anyone, I'm glad it's him.""And you don't mind that we consider you a part of our family?""I have had many years to adjust to the idea of you as my papa," Ray assured with a smile."And Ash? He can be

“They’re retreating!” Bright could hear the shouts sound as the flood of demons began to peel back. His barriers had held in most places. They had even disintegrated a few of the men's who had made the first attempts through. However, there was only so much guns one person could control, and their energy had eventual given out. Then it had fallen to the combined team of White Dragon Gang, Black Dragon Gang, and other small gang to hold off the attacks.“I don’t see Monika,” Jace shouted.“She’s not here,” Bright replied. He had been searching for her throughout the fight, but she was nowhere to be found. Bright knew it was the only thing saving them at the moment. The battle had drained him, and he had to clutch to the wall to keep himself upright. His knees threatened to give out at any second, but he couldn’t rest. Not yet. Bright was too experienced to think the men's were retrea

Ray woke up on a chaise in his father mansion apartment. The sunlight was streaming in through the window, and Ray could hear the sounds of someone puttering around in the kitchen. He stretched slowly, surprised to find that he felt well-rested and completely uninjured.“Look who finally woke up,” Ray was by his side immediately. He ran a hand through Ray hair. “You must have been tired. You didn’t even make it to your room. We were going to put you to bed, but you were clinging rather tightly to that pillow.”“What-?”“Breakfast is ready,” Ash appeared in the doorway, dressed in one of Bright robes over a pair of plain sleep pants.“Don’t worry. I made sure it was one of the recipes he was good at,” Bright whispered to Ray as if it were one of their little inside jokes. Then in a louder voice, he continued. “C’mon. Y

Everything was overwhelming. His mind surged with a kind of thought he had never had before, and for several nerve-wracking moments, Ash was tempted just to test how far his newfound gang would reach. It took all of his effort and Bright reassuring hand on his elbow to focus his attention on their situation, and once he was focused again, he began calculating what had to be done.They had to get out of Monika place. They had to gather any injured and safely make their way back to the car. Everyone needed to be accounted for. Type voice was a godsend. As his brother took charge, Ash turned his attention to his family as had become the pattern over the past few days.He would be lying if he claimed he had never been afraid in battle, but he could say that seeing Ray reach towards him the way he did was downright terrifying. He had been the big brother for years. He had comforted and protected for so long that it was a natural instinct for him. This was different though.

The first day back in his father mansion , Ray had slept straight through the night and then half of the next day. He had wrongly assumed that that meant he was fine, and that the night terrors had stopped. On the second night, he had slept restlessly, but he stubbornly blamed it on having slept too much the night earlier and also trying to adjust to having a new life schedule. He had used both excuses with Bright and Ash when they had found him sprawled on the sofa at eight in the morning watching the morning news.“I know you’re trying to adjust to a regular pattern of sorts-,” Bright began.“Four to nine,” Ray confirmed. Five hours was plenty of sleep for a young man like him, and morning rush people tended to be the most unpleasant which was why he had picked that period of time.“Yes, well, you’re still recovering. You need more than five hours this first week.”“That’s why I’m on the sofa.”Bright sighed deeply while scrubbing at his face. Ash, wh

It had been weeks since his return. He was finally up to full strength, and the night terrors barely made an appearance anymore. Ash had returned to his role as leader of the White dragon Gang, and Bright was taking on as many jobs as he ever was before. Ray was finally being left on his own without any hovering parental figures for hours at a time. It should have been great, but he had no idea what to do with all the sudden free time.He found himself returning to the senior center and helping out there. Though Rami had passed away peacefully many years before and he had accepted it, for the most part, there were still others there who never had visitors. It helped to ease some of the aches he got from thinking about her by spending time with the people who had been her friends, so he still went to bingo and cooked meals and went for regular visits with the others. The residents had been surprised to find him there during the daylight hours, but he made up an excuse about ho

Bright was mixing up cocktails when Ray got home. Ray took one look at the strangely purple liquid with what looked like glitter swirling in it and opened his mouth to ask what it was before deciding against that.“Hello, my sweet boy,” Bright greeted while pressing a glass into his hand. “Ash called and said he had to stay late at the base, so it will just be us for dinner tonight.”“Is it anything serious?” Ash rarely stayed late at the base any longer unless it was a dire situation. Ray mind filled with possibilities from a new greater gangs attacking to something as citizen as a fight between the couple. He was shocked by how much the latter possibility terrified him.“They have some visiting students from another base, and apparently it’s expected that he be there to take charge of getting them settled in.”Ray frowned. “And no one else could do it?”“You know how they are
