Chapter 7

Kaito could only gaze at the Alpha before him, feeling like he was in some sort of a dream, that if he moved any second now, this image before him will disappear and Kaito will be standing here alone… it was all surreal, and he wanted to scream, cry, do something, but his body was frozen, and he couldn't do anything, and Shinichi… he was sure this was Shinichi, right? He has the same scent as him, the same eyes, and the same hair, only bigger and more build, and Kaito felt himself sway a little.

The Alpha before him seemed to gather himself, and his hand that was frozen in the air lowered itself to his cheek, caressing him gently, it was then that the dam broke and a sob left Kaito, then another, and another, and then another, until the Alpha pulled him in his embrace, whispering calming words into his ear, which instead of calming him down made him cry harder and clutch at the Alpha's suit coat tightly, refusing to let go of him, afraid to let go of him…

"… shit!" The sound of his father as he exchanged words with Shinichi went over his mind because the Alpha didn't let him go, he brought him closer to his embrace which made the Omega let out a shuddered sigh and took in the Alpha's scent trying to calm his fried nerves before he becomes even more hysterical and pass out from exhaustion, Kaito took deep breaths as he tried to calm himself down, his breath hitching now and then as he stopped crying and calm down enough to hear the few sentences exchanged between his father and mate.

When he pulled himself from his mate, he blinked his eyes as he saw everyone was out of the Kudou mansion, the detective boys, the police officers, Agasa-Hakase, everyone… they all were out of the mansion looking at Shinichi with shocked and wide eyes like they were not believing what their eyes were seeing, and Kaito was still having trouble believing that the Alpha was holding him in his arms, but he was there! He felt his gentle arms around him, and Kaito let out a shuddered sigh as he returned to the Alpha's embrace…

Kaito didn't know how, but it ended with everyone inside of the Kudou mansion, with Shinichi and his father sitting on one of the sofas, Kaito couldn't even make himself go toward the Alpha, the detective boys had latched into him as soon as he was beside him, they were shaking so hard, and tears were gathering in their eyes, but to his surprise, it was Ai who was letting her tears fall carelessly.

"You said that you don't remember your mate, Shinichi-Kun, how did you remember Kaito?" Toichi said in a gentle and low voice, but in the quiet room, he could have as well shouted those words at the top of his lungs, Shinichi though only blinked and furrowed his brows like he couldn't even remember how, and that scared Kaito more than ever because Shinichi was acting strangely and what does his father meant by Shinichi not remembering him? His mate just went to him and held him!

"Because of his scent…" That was Koizumi's voice, which made Kaito send her a glare as his eyes fell on her, but she was not that concerned with his threat, her eyes were on Shinichi, not leaving him. "Those who have amnesia are normally given scent therapy; some scents are recognized because they were instinctually engraved in the person with his secondary gender, causing them to be able to identify their mates, children, family members." The Alpha said still not taking her eyes off of Shinichi, the Alpha though, was looking at her with a blank look, a smile pasted on his face, and it made Kaito shiver when his eyes fell on the smile because Shinichi looked like a predator who was watching his prey ready to pounce any minute now.

"You seemed to know a lot about me, Ma'am, but unfortunately I don't know anything about you." Shinichi said in a cold voice which made Kaito pause, the last time he heard Shinichi using that voice was when he talked to his mother about their engagement, or maybe it was his last case before he overthrows the crows, he doesn't remember quite well after he lost Shinichi the days seemed to merge without his consent.

"Koizumi Akako is my name Kudou-Kun." The woman said which made Shinichi furrow his brows and whisper something to himself and Kaito was sure that Shinichi mouthed was the word 'Witch' under his breath before he stood and gave a small smile to the woman, it was not as cold as the previous one, but it was still sharp.

"Well then, please let me introduce myself, Shirosaki Shinichi, it's a pleasure to meet you Koizumi-San." Shinichi said and Kaito could see how Koizumi's eyes widen at that and he was sure the flash of fear he was true, he could even see Megure furrow his brows a little gazing at Shinichi with a confused and strange look in his eyes.

"S-Shin-Chan… do you remember me?" Yukiko breathed as she took a step toward the Alpha which made Shinichi look at her strangle and Kaito was even sure the Alpha scented the air, but there was no recognition in the Alpha's eyes, and Kaito didn't know if he pities the woman or thinks she deserves it.

"I am sorry, but who are you?" Shinichi ended up asking after five minutes of silence, his answer made the air around everyone even more awkward and tense then it was a few seconds ago, and everyone shifted in their place as Yukiko's face fell and she looked at the Alpha with a broken look on her face.

"I am your mother!" The woman said, a note of hysteria in her voice and Kaito felt the detective boys leaning closer to him and he knows that they were scared that Shinichi was going to treat them like Yukiko, not remembering who they were and Kaito knows that it will break the kids' heart if Shinichi really didn't remember them.

"… That's strange; I thought I was an orphan." Shinichi ended up saying as he looked at Yukiko and even Kaito had to flinch at those words, because even if Shinichi didn't remember who his parents were, saying those words was like a hot knife, a punishment for their neglect and Kaito didn't know if he pities the Kudou, after all, they were the one who left their child and went across the world to live somewhere else, so it wasn't strange that the Alpha won't recognize them, or so Kaito's logic said, and maybe there was bitterness in there too, that's why he liked to think of those words.

The silence became even more awkward than before with Yukiko's sobs mixed with it, Yuusaku was holding his wife trying to calm her down, looking at Shinichi hoping that the man will say he was joking and that he knew them, but he was only greeted with a blank look making his heart feel heavier then it was before, he can even see how Toichi shifted in his seat uncomfortably.

"Shinichi-Kun, when you said Shirosaki… do you mean like Shirosaki Mura?" Inspector Megure asked which made Shinichi turn to the man and give him a sharp smile that slipped only when he heard the name, then it was back full force with a dangerous edge to it and Kaito took everything in trying to make a head or tail of what he was hearing.

"You are right Megure-San, in fact, Shirosaki Mura was my father." Shinichi said, and Kaito can hear the harsh intake of breath from Megure as he looked at Shinichi with wide eyes, Sato and her husband Takagi had the same reaction but not as harshly as the inspector, who blinked his eyes a few seconds later and gave an absent hum.

"I see… I'm sorry for your loss." Megure ended up saying as he adjusts his hat, and Kaito can see the harsh turn Shinichi's smile took as he looked at the inspector, and Kaito wondered to himself what took a place for such a smile to make its way home to Shinichi's face, it made Kaito concern.

"Let's not kid ourselves, Megure-San; we both know that he deserve what happened to him." Shinichi said offhandedly which made the inspector hum and nod his head, though Kaito can see how the inspector relax a little at Shinichi's words, though now and then, Kaito can feel Shinichi sending him looks, like he wanted to talk with him but is unable to because everyone was interrupting and Kaito is thankful for that because the Omega knew that the shock still didn't leave him completely and that when he regains himself later he will spend the time screaming his head off.

"Do you really not recognize us or our scent, Shinichi?" Yuusaku finally said which made the Alpha blink his eyes and look at Yuusaku for a long time, raising his eyebrow which informed Kaito that the Alpha was still the same to some extent, his mate always hated repeating himself and it seemed that the Kudou was in for a nasty surprise.

"I am sorry Sir, but as I said to your mate, I don't remember you, nor your scent is familiar." Shinichi said which made the Alpha swallow and look at his son who was looking at him like he was looking at a stranger in the street, not caring about them unless they were in your way.

"How did you survive, Shinichi-Kun?" That was Ai who spoke for the first time since all of this happened, and she finally left Kaito's side, not being able to stop herself from taking Shinichi in, inspecting the changes that took place with her friend, and running a scenario after a scenario of what could possibly be the reason for his amnesia.

Shinichi turns his gaze to Ai, he tilted his head and Kaito's lips twitched up as he saw Shinichi's eyes soften a little when they fell on the girl, and Kaito saw how Ai relaxed at that, which made the detective boys relax a little and take a step forward. "I don't know." Shinichi ended up saying which made the woman turn teen furrow her brows at that. "The only thing I know is that my family saw me drifting near their summer house, they didn't hear any drowning incidents near the river." Shinichi ended up saying which everyone who knew what happened when Shinichi overthrew the crows connects the words, feeling guilty that they didn't search for the Alpha a little more than they did.

The next few hours were spent with Shinichi and Toichi talking with them, getting to know Shinichi and Toichi's side of the story, everyone discovers that even if Shinichi didn't remember them some scents he can recognize, like the detective boys, Chikage, Agasa-Hakase, and surprisingly Akako after catching her scent, and Kaito was surprised by this new Shinichi with his new mannerism and new prefers and new everything, this Shinichi was a businessman and was running the family company, that he attended and graduated from Haido university being the top student, that he lived in Haido and that was probably why they didn't see him, and Kaito pursed his lips because this Shinichi was like a stranger, a person that Kaito didn't know about but was still familiar, but he can see that the man was getting frustrated, every time he wanted to talk with Kaito privately but the two of them were interrupted because Kaito was getting frustrated too…

The sound of knocking made everyone look at each other, and Kaito did a headcount to see who was missing, humming to himself when he saw that Hattori and his mate still didn't come, same with that bitchy Omega, but he knows for sure that they would never knock when they enter this house, they will just barge in like they own the place, Ayumi rushed to open the door, and she was gone for a whole five minutes before she was back with a fancy dressed man and a teenager girl as they looked around the place, as soon as the girl saw Shinichi she grin and skipped toward him while calling out "Nii-Sama!" Hugging him tightly, and to their surprise, Shinichi gave a soft smile and held the girl in one arm hug.

"Karin, Okaa-Sama, what are you doing here?" Shinichi said and Kaito didn't even need to look at Yukiko and Yuusaku to see the broken look on their faces as they gazed at the man who was dressed in a fancy suit, with dark brown hair and deep turquoise eyes, looking at Shinichi with narrow eyes.

"You are late, for one, and two I heard that you finally found your mate, but guess what? You didn't even call to tell me you found the Omega you were searching for, for more than seven years… give me one reason to not pull your ear off." The Omega said in a threat as he took a step toward Shinichi making the Alpha's lips twitch up at that.

"I didn't have time to call, though I remember telling Toichi-San to call and inform you." Shinichi said innocently which made Toichi squeak and shook his head so fast when the man looked at him with narrow eyes, and that caused the man to turn to Shinichi and glare at him harshly, which made Shinichi smile at him innocently, causing the Omega to sigh at that and mutter something under his breath.

"I'm not taking the fall for you!" Toichi squeaked as he looked at Shinichi with a betrayed look, which made the Alpha to shrug his shoulder, causing the teenage girl to give a quiet laugh at that and let go of Shinichi mouthing something to the Alpha which made him roll his eyes with a smile.

"Yeah, yeah, smile all you want, let's see how happy you will be when I kick your ass at home." The Omega hissed at Shinichi causing the Alpha to smile at that and mouthed something to the teenager making her grin. "So, where is your mate?" The Omega asked which made Shinichi give a soft smile and pointed at Kaito making the Omega tense a little when the old man turns toward him and tilted his head when his eyes feel on Kaito. "He looks familiar… like Toichi; he is Toichi's son isn't he?" Toichi nodded his head making the Omega's eyes return to Kaito inspecting him which made Kaito self-conscious. "Now I know why you got attached to Toichi fast, and don't even try to deny it." The man said before Shinichi even opened his mouth, which made the Alpha roll his eyes, his eyes became sharp when the Omega looked at his watch before looking at Shinichi with an apologetic look. "We need to leave now if we want to catch the plane to Germany Shinichi." The Omega said which made the Alpha frown at that.

He knows that he had agreed with his mother to leave for Germany to meet his family the day after he dropped Toichi, but the thing is he just met his mate, and he didn't even get the chance to talk with him! Shinichi really wanted to say no to this and stay here with his mate, but the thing is he can't leave his mother and sister alone in a strange country, even if it was his mother's birthplace, and Shinichi was torn at that, looking at Kaito and his mother not knowing what to do. "You should go, Shinichi." Kaito said for the first time since he entered the Kudou's house, and he can feel Shinichi's eyes on him as he was ready to argue which made Kaito sent him a harsh look. "It will give me the chance to think about everything… so just go…" Kaito said, hating the plea he heard in his voice and he turned around, and walked away, thanking God that Shinichi didn't call him, so that meant he remembers when Kaito needed his time…

Kaito needed to think…

So what do you think?

Sorry for the short chapter… I had to write and rewrite the chapter, and was only able to write this much…
