Cyrus stood in front of the mirror stared at his reflection as he brushed his hair to get ready for the office. Just when he was about to cover his forehead like he always does he paused. His eyes fell over the scar that was gracing his forehead. All the terrible memories related to that scar started running through his head making him glare at his reflection. But then.

To me, this scar makes you more beautiful.

Her soft soothing voice entered his ears making his gaze soften as well remembering that beautiful moment he spent with her. He touched his scar and this time without feeling a single ounce of hatred towards it.

He closed his eyes feeling her lips softly kissing his scar like it doesn't disgust her. That was the first time when someone didn't talk about his perfection but instead embraced his imperfections. That was the first time when someone truthfully made him realize that he's a human and that having such imperfections is a part of his life.

She made him feel like a human.

Slowly opening his eyes he stared at the scar before grabbing a small amount of hair gel and styling his hair in a way that his full forehead was on display. Even his scar could be seen perfectly.

Cyrus in his childhood used to love to style his hair this way. His forehead was always small that's why he liked revealing it but that terrible night made him highly insecure about his forehead.

He took a deep breath before giving his reflection a last glance. He walked out of his room finding Analise talking to Creed. There was a small smile playing over his once dead-hearted man's face. Cyrus wouldn't lie sometimes he gets jealous of Creed as well.

But can he blame anyone for not being able to keep the girl he wants with him? No. He's the one whose to be blamed. He was solely responsible for everything.

He never knew Creed liked Ana till he decided to oppose Cyrus and stand up for Ana that day Cyrus understood that Creed sincerely wants Analise so he simply decided to leave the girl under Creed's protection.

Analise was always been a shy and reserved girl. Cyrus appreciated her minding her business and only doing the work given to her. Sometimes Cyrus questions himself that when there are so many similarities between Ana and Hazel then why does his heart only wants Hazel?

He has no answer to his own question, he just knows that he wants her. Hazel is just what he ever wanted. She's the only one he ever craved to have in his life. He just loves her and he has no explanation of why her. He just loves her, that's it.

Creed straightened his posture after seeing Cyrus. Ana also turned around bowing her head slightly. But soon Creed froze for a second seeing Cyrus not hiding his scar anymore.

The side of his lips curved up slightly as he tried hard to not smile seeing the obvious change in his boss's posture.

"If you're done let's go." He ordered making Creed nod his head. Cyrus rolled his eyes in annoyance when Creed kissed Ana's forehead.

He felt an invisible stab over his chest after seeing them being so lovey-dovey in front of him. The man who had his heart broken just a month ago.

"How's the shipment going on?" He questioned looking through his tablet.

"Tomorrow it will reach here. Everything is going on smoothly." Creed replied driving the car. Cyrus hummed in response before reading the news.

"Whose this new boy you told me about?" Creed smiled as Cyrus mentioned that boy he has been blabbering about to his boss for a month now.

"I have instructed him about the rules and also his training has started as well. He has been getting trained by his foster father from the age of 8. And now we will give him the rest of the training before he will become our gang member." Creed explained making Cyrus nod.

He started reading the information about that boy who has weirdly impressed Creed more than expected. It's not easy to impress Creed and it's not possible to satisfy Cyrus.

"18 and is still studying. He's quite young." After Cyrus took the hold of his gang at the age of 18 he made the rule that no one can take part in the practical gang missions who is under 20.

Cyrus suffered from panic attacks on the spot after he used to kill his enemies. His mind wasn't built that strong till he hit 20 and then he made up his mind to not let any of his men go through such terrible experiences.

"You know the rule Creed. He isn't even out of high school yet. There is no place for him until he turns 20 and at least is a graduate." Creed nodded his head.

"Yes, boss I know but trust me he wants to join our gang on his own. No one's forcing him. He is actually a really good fighter, shooter, and also good at making plans." Cyrus hummed.

"The answer is no. No compromise on the rules." Creed sighed nodding his head. He didn't dare to argue further. If Cyrus said no then there is nothing that could change his mind.

"By the way, boss." Creed hesitated before continuing.

"You look handsome today." Cyrus raised his eyes to Creed who skillfully avoided looking at him driving the car.

"Your wife wouldn't like you flirting with your boss Creed. And I would love to create some problems in your lovely married life." Cyrus said expressing his jealousy making Creed pursue his lips.

"My bad." He whispered before controlling himself to not smile.

Creed and Cyrus' relationship mostly is related to only work but Creed is the man Cyrus can blindly trust on. They might not have an open caring attitude toward each other but in the end, for Cyrus, Creed is more than just a trusted man. A brother, a companion who knows everything about him and sometimes more than Cyrus knows himself.

They reached the company and Cyrus once again threw himself under the truck of work. Tomorrow was the company's yearly holiday. Cyrus's ancestors started this company on that particular day that's why every year the company has a holiday.
