The Heart Wants what the heart wants
Summary
At age 6, Rolph and his sister Hannah were taken away from their home after their mother's death. They were transferred to their grandfather's horse ranch at Marfa in Texas, USA, where Rolph at age 10 was declared the future heir and young master of the Filipiak family. The Filipiak family was a Mafia family primarily into Drugs and Human trafficking, owning at least two big hotels and clubs in each state in the US while they pridominantly flourish in the present day state of Texas. The moment Rolph was declared the future heir, he started training to become a cold hearted criminal, ruthless enough to rule the underworld black market both within and outside the country. At 16, he was given a set of rules to follow which included marrying a woman of the family's choosing. But the most important rule was that he must follow and obey his grandfather's orders to the last. At age 18, he was given a quarter of the family's business in Texas City as his training ground. This led to him moving from Marfa to Texas to be mentored and guided by his uncle, Uncle Marek who was grandfather's first child and previous heir to be. He was removed as the heir because despite all his efforts, he was not able to bear a male child and Jan, Rolph's grandfather and Don of the "House of Panther", was not willing to hand over the family's business to the son of a female grandchild in the foreseeable future. Due to this unfairness, Marek had a dense hatred for Rolph and a sharp killing intent towards him. But he dares not act on his thoughts, so he found ways to make things difficult for the young master who had no choice but to play his uncle's mental games. At 20 years old, Rolph was not just controlling a larger part of Texas city, but he was also controlling San Antonio and two other cities close to Texas city. Rolph's boys got to know that an unknown gang was dealing on his turf and that the drugs were much better than what he had been cooking. With the hope of sniffing this supposed small gang out, obtaining the new recipe and clearing them out, Rolph ordered his boys to go hard on the smaller gangs in Texas City. This resulted in a massive gang fight that lasted for days, costing the state the death of innocent civilians. Before the police could step in, Rolph was immediately withdrawn from Texas city and forcefully taken to Marfa to face his grandfather's wrath while at the same time, escaping from the clutches of the law. At Marfa, Jan gave Rolph a 100 strokes of his infamous horse whip, after which he updated him on the information he had already gathered on the gang Rolph was going after. Turns out Jan already knew of this situation 2 weeks ahead of Rolph and he had already started working on it from his end. From that point on, Rolph was ordered to take over the investigation from where Jan stopped. This was how he ended up at Rockport beach for 2 good weeks, waiting for a supposed ship which could also be a yacht, that had been appearing and disappearing randomly at that location. In the evening while wondering about how long it would take for that ship to surface, he spotted his soulmate as the latter emerged from the sea where he had been taking a swim. Stunned by the boy's beauty and grace, he made up his mind to obtain the boy and take him home only to be called back by Derrick, his life and death brother and the only person with him on the stakeout. The yacht that was 6 days late was finally here and it wasn't even a yacht. It was a small speedboat. He had no choice than to let go of the boy but made up his mind to find him once he resolved the issues at hand. After concluding that mission at Rockport and making plans for the next one, Rolph and Derrick returned to San Antonio where Derrick ordered his boys to select premium sex slaves for Rolph to resolve his extended sexual tension caused by the unpredictabily long stakeout. A boy and a girl were sent to Rolph's room in a cage and Rolph picked the boy (BEN) for the night. All his pent up emotions were unleashed on the boy all night long until he became unresponsive. But in the morning when Rolph decided to use the girl (Jolanta), he was shocked to find out that she was his fiancee who was supposed to be in far away Antarctica, conducting a research on penguins. He immediately took care of the drugged up girl and contacted Jan who told him that Jolanta had been missing for 2 weeks but they had kept it away from him because her father wanted to make sure the information doesn't get linked. Rolph was enraged that someone existed on earth who would have the guts to kidnap his fiancee, the only child and heir apparent of one of the top 3 political families in Poland. Even though he followed his grandfather's orders by taking Jolanta down to Marfa, he still deployed some of his men to start doing his own private investigations. Unfortunately, on both sides, all they met were dead leads. While Rolph was focused on Jolanta's recovery, Ben whom he had used and Injured previously suddenly got septic and was taken to the family clinic for treatment. It was at this time that Derrick noticed the 19 years old boy and took a liking to him. He found out that the boy was an orphan who had run away after being unable to pay one of their dealers for drugs he had taken, the boys had captured him and were forcing him to work off his debt. But Ben ran away again.This time, escaping to New York.They caught him, brought him back and decided to sell him off as a sex slave. But when Derrick had asked them to deliver premium slaves to Rolph, Ben got selected because he was a cute boy with a sexy body. The exact time that Rolph likes. Since the boy was Rolph's spec, Derrick proposed to Rolph to keep him as a personal slave and assistant. Rolph reluctantly agreed. Therefore when Ben recovered, he started living with them and taking all necessary classes and training to aid his new job. With Rolph being a machosist who is into BDSM, sex with Rolph was always rough and Ben always ending up with bruises allover his body. But gradually, he got used to it and even started enjoying it. Then came Christmas. The only time the members of the Filipiak family share space and food. Rolph made his way to Marfa with Derrick, Ben and Delvin; one of his closest guards. When they got to Marfa, Jolanta and Hannah were already waiting. Hannah's presence was expected but Jolanta was supposed to arrive a few days later. Jolanta was the daughter of Jan's best friend; Adam and she had moved to the ranch at age 8 after her mother died in an assassination attempt on her father. By the time she was 15, she had decided that the only man she would marry was Rolph and nagged her henpecked father into getting Jan to promise her Rolph's hand in marriage. Because they were best friends and joining their families in marriage would benefit the Filipiak's family immensely, Jan didn't hesitate to agree to this arrangement and had even informed the teen Rolph who was gay that he (Jan) doesn't care who Rolph sleeps with as long as he gets married to Jolanta and bears a son. Knowing fully well that Rolph wasn't into women, Jolanta still insisted on marrying him and promised not to interfer in his private affairs except for when he decides to take a sex slave. She wanted to make sure that it wouldn't be someone Rolph would fall in love with. Therefore, when her spies within Rolph's gang told her about Ben, she became agitated and arrived earlier than planned. On setting her eyes on Ben, her fear became tangible and she immediately insisted that Ben be sent to the harem for the holiday sex slave auction that happens at the ranch annually. Rolph was mad and was going to refuse but Derrick reminded him of all the reasons why he must do as Jolanta wanted. That night at the tension filled family diner, Jan proposed a marriage between Derrick and Jennifer, the first and capable daughter of Marek. Before Rolph's arrival at the ranch at age 6, Marek had already convinced Jan to bethroth Jenifer his daughter to Derrick so they could train Derrick to take over the family business since Derrick was an orphan and completely under Jan's control. But by the time Rolph clocked 10, Jan suddenly changed his mind and made Rolph the heir apparent, kicking Marek's plans to the curb. Overtime, several assassination attempts were made on Rolph's life and some evidence lead back to Marek. To Rolph's surprise, all Jan did was send Marek who was previously operating in Texas as Rolph's assistant and supervisor to some far away state. Now Jan wanted Rolph's right-hand man to marry Marek's daughter. To save the situation, Rolph immediately lied that Derrick was already dating Hannah, his sister and there was no way he would allow Derrick break Hannah's heart to please Jeniffer. Fortunately, Jan had made a deal with their father. The deal was to stay out of Hannah's life in exchange for taking total control of Rolph's life. Jan being a man of his words found himself in a difficult situation and had to back off. Once again, ruining another plot from Marek. On the auction night, Ben was rented to a Mexican boss for 2 weeks and he was taken away only for him to discover that his temporary master had made a deal with Jolanta and he was going to be killed. He was resigned to fate but fortunately for him, while keeping tabs on Ben's movements, Derrick had discovered that the person that bought Ben was one of the people Marek had been using to place ransome on Rolph's head on the darknet. So Rolph had ordered a massive move to unearth the Mexican boss and kill him. This operation led to Ben getting rescued and also creating a lead on the identity of the people who kidnapped Jolanta as he had overheard a conversation in that regard. When Ben returned to Texas and reported what he found out, his information gave them leads that stopped at Marek's table again. Turned out Jeniffer had teamed up with some Polish guy to take down both Jolanta's father and Rolph's most powerful backup; Jolanta. But unfortunately for them, when she was delivered to the client who had paid for her, he recognized who she was and immediately returned her to them without even asking for a refund. Realizing that Jolanta and her father were more popular and feared than expected, they tried to hide her in plain sight by mixing her with the harem at San Antonio and shipping her out later but unfortunately, she ended up in Rolph's cage. Focused on revenge, Jolanta sought out Jeniffer and killed her. Jennifer's death shocked Jan and her father so much that it nearly broke the relationship between the two families. But because Jan was a practical man, he transferred all his anger to Rolph who had disobeyed his orders by investigating the case after Jan had already closed it and told him to forget about it. Turns out Jan was in the know of what really happened but had tried to bury everything because he feared that Adam might kill both his son; Marek and his granddaughter for teaming up with his political enemies. Jan was a ruthless man but beside Adam, he would be called a saint. After whipping Derrick till he was covered in blood and passed out, Jan announced that he was withdrawing Rolph's protection for 6 months. If Rolph survives on his own strength within that time frame, he would take him back as his heir. If not, he would make him join the security unit of the family business as a guard. After giving Rolph an hour to pack and leave with his elite men, he announced that he has disowned Rolph on the darknet. Since Rolph had several assassination orders hanging over his head on the darknet, assassins from all over started racing against time to kill him and win the monies placed on his head. With Derrick out of commission, running was hard for Rolph and he was soon cornered and beaten up 4 days later. Just as he was about to be killed, Nicolas, a man who was obsessively in love with Rolph came to the rescue and took him and his gang off the radar. Jan who had acted in anger was soon confronted by Jolanta and her father for disowning Rolph. Adam ordered him to find Rolph else there would be hell to pay. But by the time he announced that Rolph was back under his protection and not to be touched, the boy and his elite guards had gone missing.
Chapter 1
As a top, Rolph had never gone after a twink before. They come to him. Try to seduce him, Beg him to take them even if it was just for a night.
Not because he was excessively handsome, but because he was a symbol of sex appeal-masculinity.
6ft , Chiseled face with sharp jawlines, Eyes the color of the sea, so deep and sharp it makes your heartbeat go from zero to hundred the moment they are focused on you.
If he was angry with you at that moment, the aura he emits cripples your brain. You find out you can't think anymore, you almost can't breathe, you want to move but your legs are gone. Then a sensation that makes all the hair on your body stand erect starts sipping into your veins, starting from under your feet. And at the same time, a chilling sensation starts from your brain and passes from your neck into your spine. From there, it travels into every bone and marrow in your body.
As if drawn to each other, these two sensations meet, mix and become one in your body. Then you start shivering.
If he decided not to let you go, the shivering will soon turn to shaking and if you have no inner strength to boast of, your teeth may soon start clanking at the same time, your skin starts sweating profusely.
Rolph's gaze mercilessly places his enemies in a fear cage, mentally disabling them.
Now imagine if Rolph lands those eyes on you because he loves you or cares about you? The feeling of being secured and safe, the feeling of belonging and being owned, these feelings multiply in multiple folds.
And when he wants you. When he looks at you like he wants to eat you. When he focuses on you like you're the only one that exists in this big world. It's like a vampire hypnotizing its prey. There is no escaping it. you are willing to let him do whatever he wants. Even if he is hurting you, you don't want him to stop. Not because you like getting hurt, but somehow, you believe he loves and owns you and has the right to do whatever he wants to you. If getting hurt means having him around for longer, then so be it.
And Rolph knew this!
Rolph knew the effect he had on his enemies but never gave a thought to how he made his family feel. Especially his only sister who was the only one he had ever truly loved. As for falling in love? That was alien to him while sex was a past-time activity that never left him satiated no matter how long it took.
Rolph had always loved colors and fashion. From a younger age, he had played dress up with his sister and ran around in his mother's clothes. Worn her lipsticks and eye shadows. Bath in her soft, sweet smelling perfumes and deodorants.
Those were the good days.
His father was never around. His mother was all they had and she was always lonely. So the highlight of their lives was made whenedaysver his father came home. He loved their mother but family business stood in the way.
Those were the good .
The days they went fishing by the lake in the middle of the forest behind their 'out of the way-standing alone-in the middle of nowhere-big house' located in the backwoods of a quaint village.
For the first five years of his life, he was home schooled along with his sister. Then his mother became sick. Well she had always been sick but never this bad. She was taken away in an ambulance on a stretcher and was brought back in an ambulance but with a coffin.
His father and a lot of people he didn't know then, took the coffin to the little lake, set up a very high pile of logs and sticks, placed the coffin on it and set it ablaze.
When the coffin was done burning, they gathered the ashes, placed him and his sister in a canoe and accompanied by their Dad, they spread the ashes over the lake. Rolph didn't understand.
Then before nightfall, their Dad took them away from their home in his car. The next day, they took a flight from Denver to Texas and got introduced to a very old man on a very big ranch that stretched on and on, surrounded by golden sand and hills in distant places.
With time, Rolph got to know that his grandfather never approved of his mum. That was why their Dad hid them away in that house in the backwoods of Denver and when his mum died, the demonic grandfather declared that no heir of his would be a sissy, took away all his cute things and enrolled him in training; Fighting, Shooting, Car racing, Drug cooking, Cattle rearing, Forgery and Business administration.
By age 18, he had gone for his first smuggling trip and had mastered the production of every drug type on their catalog. He even had his own signature drugs and mixes. By then he had also discovered that grandpa doesn't care who he slept with as long as he gets married to a wife of his family choosing and birth an heir.
The only reason his grandfather allowed his father to keep his mother by his side though out of sight, was because her first child was a male.
And the reason he ordered that they be handed over to him after their mum's death was because out of the two sons grandfather had, his father was the only one that birthed a male son. His father's legal wife, chosen and accepted by the family, gave birth to 4 girls and his father's brother gave birth to 6.
Thinking that if he tried it with another woman, he may be able to birth a male child, Rolph's uncle; Uncle Marek started spreading his oats all over Texas but still no male child surfaced.
Seeing that his bastard grandson was his clone, Rolph's demonic grandfather who was agile, strong, cold hearted and deadly, decided to mold the young boy of 8 after himself and prepare him to become his heir. A bastard was better than nothing.
This came with a truck load of benefits as long as Rolph complied with rules.
The number one Rule was to give 100 percent compliance to his grandfather. Every other rule came under it and this was easy for Rolph because he was groomed to obey no other person than his grandfather. Not even his very own father.
Therefore he always had boys and girls throw themselves at him. He was so used to getting what he wanted, he felt entitled to everything.
That was until he saw a stranger emerge from the depth of the sea at a secluded part of Rockport beach that Texas' summer evening.
The sun was gradually becoming golden in the horizon and Rolph was getting bored out of his skull as the stakeout duty he was on was quite uneventful.
That was when he saw him.
The first thing he noticed was the silver hair as it broke the surface of the water. It was short and stuck to a very white scalp. What struck him was the skin. Rolph had lived in Texas since he was 6 after his mother's death and he had never seen such skin color. Everyone he knew were either tan, red or white but not this pale!
The body turned his way and he saw the most beautiful face he had ever seen. First, he thought it was a girl but as more of the body came out of the water and he saw the body structure, he discovered that it was a boy. The most pretty thing he had ever seen from afar. What if he got closer? How beautiful will he be? The boy was so pretty even the sun paid him homage by shining its last ray of the day on his back before calling it quit.
Seeing how the sun claimed the boy's skin by bathing him in sparkling, golden rays, Rolph felt an intense jealousy and the desire to also lay claim and own him.
On a normal day, when Rolph sights such a face, he marks the twink and sends his boys after such. Soon the twink either end up as one of their male prostitutes in his Texas city club or gets shipped off to shores unknown. After he might have had his fill.
Not just twinks, girls too. As his family black market business was mainly drugs and human trafficking.
His family was one of the 5 major families that controlled Texas' black market while also having their hands in every sweet legal jar in the state and beyond.
But unlike before, Rolph decided to hunt down this twink himself. Something about this one felt different. He had never felt like owning a person before. He always wanted to suppress, torture and break people's will. But to own someone for himself? No!
Completely forgetting his reason for hanging out on the beach, Rolph left his hiding place and approached the boy who was almost out of the water. But by the time he got to the boy, some girl walked over, dragged the boy by the ear saying…." Grandpa said I should drag you back by your ears. So let's go!"
How dare she lay her filthy hands on my boy!
Rolph had already decided to skin the girl alive for hurting a stranger he had not even met but Just as he decided to hurry over and give the girl a good thrashing for laying hands on his twink, his best friend and second in command, Derrick, called out to him.
Suddenly, he remembered his mission which was to identify and trail the crew of a small ship or yacht that had been bringing in drugs better than the one his grandfather was selling, who had also been taking over their territories without permission. Such guts!
The small white boat, Not a ship- had just arrived at the hidden narrow water way which was its hiding place and things were about to get interesting.
Not as interesting as the white twink he just saw but no matter how strong he felt about the twink, the wrath of his grandfather was the beginning of wisdom. Though the old man favored him most, he never spoiled him. In fact, he punishes him more than others and accepts no failure.
Not wanting to piss the Demon off, Rolph hurried back to his mission with a plan to find the boy no matter what.
Not knowing that she just escaped possible kidnapping, getting sold or death, Becca, a 16 years old teenager took her time to drag Ray her best friend of the same age back to her truck and drove him to his hotel where she helped him pack his small bag so they could go back to Bandera where Ray's grandpa was waiting to cuss him out for running away from house chores while blaming his mum for how he turned out. It was a 3 hrs drive give and take.
Becca was pissed.
