Randy broke into the lab.

"Your excuses get more pathetic!" The heir was screaming furiously. "Being behind that son of a bitch Reigns makes your job mediocre."

AJ rolled his eyes. "This time the experiment was more stable, the test subject's body did not collapse."

"No... but the damn guinea pig beaten himself to death. A superman who kills himself is useless!" Randy clenched his fists.

"The problem is not only the instability of the serum, but also of the test subjects." AJ explained. "We need someone exceptional and your champions are all: either very old, or with complications in their health due to the excessive use of steroids or vices of all kinds."

"Well, we still have the Utopia League MMA champion. He is not the youngest, but people say he is a disciplined and healthy man, as well as very strong. We will go watch his next fight and see if he is useful".

"Hopefully, he will be in perfect physical condition for the new serum to work properly." AJ said annoyed.

"He better be, because I'm sick of you and your lousy job."

At that point Randy left the lab. AJ sighed frustrated, Randy complaining that he was not concentrating on his work because of Roman was very ironic, when he spent his days frustrated because Seth Rollins despised him.

"At least in a way, Roman reciprocates me." AJ whispered. "Although it has been more than a week that I have not seen him. And now I have to work even harder to keep modifying the serum."

AJ sighed.

"At least I'll be able to see Roman at the next MMA League event. While Randy analize his next guinea pig, I'll go talk to Roman."

"Earth to Roman". Elias snapped his fingers at the Samoan's face. "You've been like this since Saturday. Whatever happened to you changed your mood completely."

Roman smiled but didn't say anything. Although the memories of him from that night were nothing more than sensations, it was far better than any previous experience. The first time he didn't need to see his lover to feel this.

It was also the first time that he, in fact, felt this.

Roman and Elias were entering the Rollins foundation, Dean was personally waiting for them at the reception of the building. The auburn haired man was elegantly dressed, he smiled sincerely.

Dean had to hold back a sigh. He just wanted to throw himself into Roman's arms and confess everything. He would soon, but first he wanted to approach him as Dean, so Roman would not have any doubt that he was not arrogant, nor selfish. With that, they could finally be together without secrets.

"What a pleasure to see you." Dean greeted them kindly. "I'll get straight to the point, you guys will take care of the maintenance of the facilities. Keep everything working properly and fix whatever is damaged here. We used to outsource this service but I think it would be better to have staff on site to take care of this."

Elias and Roman nodded. Dean took them on a short tour of the facilities, which were beautiful. The people who worked there were friendly and most importantly, it was a stable job with benefits.

Dean briefly explained the operation of the place and the tour ended in Dean's office. Once there, the auburn-haired man handed Roman a paper on which he had written an amount of money.

"This will be your salary, we can discuss it if you don't agree."

Roman and Elias looked at the paper in amazement.

"Dis... cuss..." Roman couldn't believe it.

"Will you give us even more if we ask?" Elias almost ripped the paper out of Roman's hands.

Dean smiled at the scene.

"We're not asking for more, Elias." Roman scolded him. "Actually, this is more than enough, thank you very much."

"I'm glad you agreed, I really wanted to correct my mistake, the way I behaved with you guys, it was horrible and you didn't deserve it." Dean apologized again.

"Everything is forgotten." Roman assured.

"You're cool, man." Elias kept looking at the paper. "You will have no complaints about us."

"I know I won't." Dean nodded. "So, we go to human resources where they will take your data and you can start today if you want."

Both men nodded and began their workday.

Seth spent most of his time at Rollins Industries and Dean took over the foundation. In fact, this was how the Seth and Dean partnership worked in all aspects. Seth was the brain and Dean the heart.

Something that Seth always reproached him for. But Dean refused to change.

The phone rang from his office, Seth answered rudely. "I don't care who he is and I don't have time for him!"

The case of the mysterious deaths, which surely had to do with Randy and the DX, had him frustrated. Seth wanted to get to the bottom of all this, he was sure that would be his ticket to revenge. The revenge that was the engine of his life and his only purpose.

"I cannot let you in!" Seth heard his assistant's voice complaining. "I'll call security!"

Seth rolled his eyes, feeling like his security team was becoming more and more useless. He stood up and opened the door to his office. In that moment, he came face to face with a man with inquisitive eyes and a confident smile.

"Who the hell are you? and why do you think you can talk to me?" Seth yelled angrily.

The man didn't flinch, the smile was still plastered on his face as he handed Seth a folder. "I'm Finn Balor from Daily The Club."

"I'm not giving interviews." Seth said arrogantly.

"I'll get to the point, I have proof that Mike Mizanin is covering the crimes of Mcintyre and Co. Drew, the billionaire who has destroyed half of the Amazon in South America, and that he is also allied with eastern governments making weapons of mass destruction. Who no country has been able to prosecute for the enormous environmental damage, thanks, of course, to Mr. Mizanin. The same man you're sponsoring for mayor."

Seth pursed his lips and looked at the folder. The heir saw all kinds of evidence, no doubt Balor was good at his job. Then he turned his attention back to the man, who smiled with astonishing confidence.

"Surely this investigation has taken you years." Seth arched an eyebrow. "This could even mean a Pulitzer."

Balor narrowed his eyes. Seth seemed to be making fun of him.

"Everyone says that you and Randy Orton are like oil and water. That you, Mr. Rollins, are the honest millionaire." Finn studied the other man's gestures. "That is why I wanted to speak personally, but in any case, now you are aware of all this and if you still decide to support Mizanin, I suppose everyone has been wrong about you."

"Listen, Mr. Balor." Seth gave him his most practiced smile. "I'll take care of all this, you have my word."

Finn handed his card to Seth. "Then I will be waiting for your call. I want to believe that there are still honest people in Utopia, and also... I wouldn't want to have to put your family's name in the story that I am going to publish if you are innocent."

Seth took the card. "I assure you won't put my name there, Mr. Balor."

By dusk things had flowed normally and Roman and Elias had been doing a good job, there were no complaints.

Dean was happy with this because the approval of the work team was important, he did not want anyone to gossip about Roman.

The auburn haired man was in his car outside the Foundation waiting for Roman to exit the building. He needed so bad to talk to him. It was like a vice, he just wanted to have the other man close. Whatever this feeling was, it consumed him, so much that Dean decided that sooner rather than later he should take off his mask and be totally honest with Roman. That's why he was there, trying to speed up that process.

The auburn-haired man was sure that, with Roman, he would finally have what he longed for.

"Seth always said that we could never trust anyone, that this curse we carried condemned us to loneliness." Dean thought as he looked at Roman. "But even though I resigned myself to Seth being right, I never wanted that for myself. Now that I've found Roman, I'm not going to let him go."

Roman and Elias left the building and found themselves facing Dean.

"Did you like the job?" Dean tried to say casually.

The auburn haired man didn't want to look like he was chasing Roman, but seeing Elias' face he realized it was pretty obvious.

Roman blinked a few times. "Yes, Mr. Ambrose. Everything is perfect, we are grateful."

Suddenly, Dean felt like a kid caught cheating on a test.

"Well, now that I am one hundred percent sure that I fixed my mistake with you, I will no longer take your time." Dean apologized trying to make his interest less obvious.

Elias smiled knowingly. "Roman, I have to go to the bar, they still owe me the money for Saturday's performance. You better hurry to the gym if you want to get to training on time."

That said, Elias almost ran away leaving them alone. Roman couldn't even answer him. He stood outside the building, speechless.

"If you're in a hurry, I can take you." Dean said innocently. "Where do you train?"

"This guy Lesnar looks dangerous." Dean said watching the videos on youtube. "Aren't you afraid to face him one day?"

Roman shook his head. They were sitting on a bench outside the gym.

What amazed Roman so far was that Dean seemed very humble, just sitting there chilling, like he wasn't a millionaire. The samoan liked this side of his boss.

"I'm not afraid of Lesnar, actually I hope to face him one day. That bastard deserves a lesson."

"Do you want revenge?" Dean said with wide eyes. "Would you hurt him if you could?"

"No, I don't think tit for tat is the best way to solve problems. Revenge almost always ends in a vicious cycle where people are never satisfied." Roman explained. "I want to defeat him to show him that he can't always get away with it, but I think Bobby, the reigning champion, will do it for all of us."

"In an ideal world, you would be an amazing superhero." Dean smiled at Roman.

Roman smiled back. "I'm just a man who wants to change things around him. There are many more like me, if we all tried to make this world a better place, we would not need superheroes."

Dean nodded. With every word Roman said, he felt more and more tempted. He just wanted to tell him the truth, Roman would understand. Especially now that he, in a way, had fixed his reputation.

"That's why I like to work at the foundation rather than at Rollins Industries. We are the only ones who fund free health and education." Dean said sincerely. "And it's good that now, someone like you is a part of that too. I'm really impressed by you."

Dean's gaze was a poem. Roman noticed that the man in front of him was interested, too much to be honest. The Samoan admitted to himself that Dean was handsome and even a good guy, but he was totally focused on someone else.

A person who he didn't even know his face...

But even so, Roman couldn't think of anyone else. He was crazy about the masked man and it would be better to make everything clear.

"Mr. Ambrose..."

"Call me, Dean."

"Dean... forgive me but I don't understand why you're here." Roman said somewhat nervous. "I…"

"Do you think I'm trying to seduce you or something?" Dean looked at him intently.

"I don't... well, what happens is that I... is that there is someone in my life right now." Roman had no idea how to explain himself.

Dean just smiled. "I think I have never been so happy that someone rejected me so quickly."

Roman didn't understand anything. What Dean said didn't make sense.

"I really like working at the foundation and I don't want this to be a problem." Roman was still nervous and confused.

"And you will stay at the foundation. You will understand everything, tonight if necessary. I don't want to wait any longer." Dean smiled at him.

"Wait for what?" Roman was puzzled.

Dean took Roman's hand and pulled him away from prying eyes and ears.

"Roman, you must understand that I am going to entrust you with something very important and..."

"There is a big fire in Daily The Club!" A woman screamed looking at her cell phone.

Dean and Roman diverted their attention to her. Several more people looked at their phones in horror.

"DailyThe Club is on the other side of the city." Roman muttered in amazement.

Dean took his cell phone and watched in horror as the news showed fire engulfing the building and firefighters trying to rescue the workers who were still there. And to his greatest surprise, Seth was there as the Hound of Justice, saving people as well.

"I should go now." Dean said horrified.

Roman looked at the video on Dean's cell phone. He didn't know what to say.

The auburn-haired man left the place in his car.
