Allen was really worried about Aslan. He shouldn't have let his guard down and allowed Aslan to stay with Skylar. Their father still didn't know about Aslan's kidnapping or his current whereabouts. Before their father found out, Allen had to bring Aslan back immediately, otherwise the situation would only worsen.While Allen was extremely worried about his little brother, Haruki seemed too relaxed. Even though his father, head of the Kanoichi family could die at any moment. Allen glanced at Haruki. He didn't say anything because they were still in front of Aaron Kennedy."I haven't heard anything about Aslan lately. He's not causing any trouble, is he?" Aaron Kennedy suddenly asked.Haruki suddenly replied, "Oh? Aslan is with—"Allen glared at him in and pinched his waist hard. Haruki almost screamed in pain. Luckily, he was able to hold it in. Haruki glanced at Allen, who glared at him fiercely in return.Aaron Kennedy, who witnessed the strange interaction between his firstborn son a

With his heart pounding, Aslan covered his mouth. He held his breath so Skylar wouldn't find him. Aslan didn't mean to eavesdrop. He just wanted a drink because he was thirsty. He really didn't mean to overhear Skylar talking about the family murder or whatever it was.Luckily, Skylar didn't investigate further because he was still on the call. After making sure that Skylar had returned to the side terrace, Aslan immediately rushed back to his room. He didn't listen to the rest of the conversation.When he arrived in his room, he immediately covered himself from head to toe and closed his eyes. He hoped to fall asleep immediately, but unfortunately, he kept thinking about what he had heard earlier. Murder or even greater crimes were nothing new to Aslan. After all, his family had always been involved in such matters. Aslan wasn't involved, but he knew about it. Still, it felt strange for ordinary civilians to discuss such matters.Aslan remembered what the housekeeper had said while t

"What are you talking about?"Aslan hoped he had heard wrong. There was no way they would share a room. Aslan noticed several identical doors in the house. Besides, the house was not exactly small. There was no way there was only one room. If Skylar intended to put him up in this house, he should have prepared a room for him."Hey, what do you mean this is our room? Don't joke around!"Skylar smiled. "Who's joking? I'm serious."Aslan glared angrily. "I don't want to share a room with you!"While Aslan spoke harshly and angrily, Skylar responded casually, as if enjoying the young man's reaction.“Why?”Aslan glared fiercely. "You ask why?! Because I don't want to!""But there's nothing wrong with us sharing a room, right? Besides, this room has a big bed. Don't worry, you won't feel cramped, even if we sleep in the same bed.”"It's not about the size of the bed, you idiot!"Skylar raised an eyebrow. “Then what is it about?”"It's about comfort. The point is, I don't want to share a ro

"What the hell, Aslan?"Allen's eyes widened. He couldn’t believe what he was hearing."Like I said, I'm going to stay with Skylar." Aslan repeated.Allen was completely baffled. “Are you crazy?! Why would you stay with this random guy?”Skylar immediately replied, hearing this. "Wow, wow, please calm down, brother. I'm not a random guy. Besides, I see Aslan often—maybe even more often than you do. While he was in the hospital, I even often came to keep him company." He ended his sentence with a faint smirk, as if mocking Allen for rarely being there for Aslan, even though he was his brother.Aslan was grateful that Skylar played along, but he was also annoyed that he was provoking Allen. He shouldn't have done that; he should have just agreed that they will live together. That’s all.As for Skylar, he was actually surprised to hear that Aslan wanted to live with him suddenly. He had invited Aslan before and even tried to persuade him. However, Aslan had firmly rejected the offer. Sky

Skylar decided to leave when the doctor started talking about fated pairs again. He didn't want to waste his time listening to such baseless ramblings. He didn't underestimate the doctor's abilities; of course, he recognized his skills. After all, it was the doctor who had helped him with his physical condition. He hadn't consulted with the doctor in a long time because he had felt fine. He hadn't expected the doctor to be so enthusiastic about discussing fated pairs."Fated pairs, huh..."Skylar sighed deeply. Even though he tried to accept the concept of fated pairs, it still didn't make sense to him. Some couples might claim to be fated pairs, and their relationship might last, but to Skylar, that was too exaggerated. The concept was beyond his comprehension.How could someone know that their partner was truly destined for them? If one person in a fated pair had already been in a relationship with someone else and then their fated pair appeared, would their feelings for the previou

"Aslan?"Skylar returned to the hospital that night. He was confused as to why he was doing it. Besides, Aslan was a nobody. He wasn’t family or a friend. Still, Skylar felt uneasy if he didn’t go back to see him.Unfortunately, when he arrived, Aslan's room was empty.“Aslan?!”Skylar was worried. Trusting his instincts, he wandered around the hospital looking for Aslan. Sadly, he didn't meet a single nurse or hospital security guard while wandering around."Shit! Where did Aslan go? Don't tell me..."Skylar shook his head. He took a deep breath and tried to calm down. Maybe he could find Aslan by following his scent. He had done this before when Aslan was kidnapped, so maybe he could do it again.He tried to sniff the air around him. However, he still couldn't smell Aslan's familiar scent."Damn it! Why can't I smell Aslan?"Skylar continued walking, trying to concentrate on the scents around him. Several pungent scents assaulted his sense of smell, making Skylar nauseous. There were

It was really scary. By the time Angie and Rai got to the hospital, it was heavily guarded by the police. Rai immediately showed his detective badge to be let in, but Angie was immediately detained. Unauthorized people were not allowed in."Wait, she's with me." Rai interrupted.The guard frowned in surprise. "But, Mr. Kelleher. Isn't she a journalist?"Rai smiled. "No problem. She won't be recording anything. The deceased was a close friend of hers, so she came to see him. Besides, she was also involved in the riot at the club the night before."Hearing Rai's explanation, the policemen on duty inevitably allowed Angie to come in and see Arok's body, which was being handled by the forensics team.Rai soon met up with his detective partner. They discussed something. As for Angie, she saw Arok's body still lying on his bed, in a very bad condition.Angie's breath caught. Her chest felt tight. She was used to seeing death in an unnatural way. Her journey as an eccentric and controversial

The next day, Angie woke up with a terrible headache. Some of the bruises on her body were starting to hurt. She quickly searched for her phone. She had not sent Rai a message last night. Her best friend must be worried.Just as Angie was reaching for her phone, she suddenly remembered something. The clock on her phone read seven minutes past five. It was still quite early."Where's Maxime?"Angie got up from Maxime's bed and went out of the room to look for him. But there was no sign of Maxime."Huh? Where's Maxime? Did he leave?"Angie looked in the kitchen and even the bathroom, but Maxime was nowhere to be found."Max? Are you out there?"Angie tried to call, but there was no answer. That meant it was true, Maxime was not home.Angie snorted quietly. "How could he leave without telling me?"Angie went into the kitchen to get some water and found a bowl of tomato soup and some slices of bread on the dining room table. A small piece of handwritten paper was tucked under the bowl of

Angie looked at Maxime. They sat facing each other. Honestly, Angie had been waiting for this for a long time. She needed information. It had been a long time since she had followed Maxime to get information about the Wolf Gang, but instead of information she had gotten dangerous incidents."Max, you said we should work together, but so far I haven't felt the cooperation you meant?"Angie looked at Maxime. She was staying at his house for now. Maxime said that once Angie was involved with the Wolf Gang men, she would be hunted forever."I'm thinking of canceling our deal," he said.Angie's eyes widened. "What? What do you mean, don't decide so unilaterally!"Maxime looked at Angie. The woman's face was full of anger. Just a short time ago, she almost died because she was trapped together with the Wolf Gang men, and now Angie still wanted to find information about the organization?"I am not. I'm just thinking about your safety."Angie chuckled. "No need. I can take care of myself!""O

Angie looked up, and as the Wolf Gang man's body collapsed, she saw Maxime and Rai running toward her.Rai immediately hugged Angie. "Oh my God, what are you doing Angie? Are you hurt? Did they hurt you?"Rai's questions were too much, but Angie did not seem to have the energy to answer them. Angie's gaze shifted to Maxime, who was standing near the body of the Wolf Gang man. Maxime's expression did not change at all. As if shooting someone was no problem at all.Maxime looked at Angie and their eyes met. Neither spoke to the other. Angie had no idea what he was thinking. The look in Maxime's eyes was always mysterious. Ah, everything about this man was always mysterious. Angie just realized that she knew nothing about him."Angie, hey!"Angie blinked. Rai's hands cupped her cheeks. Her best friend's face was worried. Angie felt guilty."Are you really not hurt?" asked Rai.Angie shook her head. "I'm fine."Rai breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank God. I thought something had happened to

"You have to come with us."Angie backed away. One of the Wolf Gang members grabbed Petal's hair, who was cowering in fear, and wrapped her arms around Angie."Aaaaaah...!" Petal screamed. She was forced to walk with her hair violently pulled. The Wolf Gang man casually kicked Petal in the back until she bounced off and hit the wall of the nightclub."What are you doing, asshole!"Angie growled angrily as she saw Petal's forehead bleeding from the impact. Unfortunately, Angie's anger was no match for him. Instead, the Wolf Gang man burst out laughing as if he was very pleased to see Angie angry."I'll say it again, come with us."Angie shook her head and spat in front of the man. "I'm not going with you.""Don't be so arrogant. You're just a lowly journalist. The Wolf Gang can kill you at any time."Angie grinned. She knew that the threat was no joke, especially coming from a member of the Wolf Gang. There had been many mysterious deaths over the years, suspected to be the crimes of W

Angie swallowed her own saliva. No, it was nothing. A lot of people knew about her and it meant nothing. She's a journalist, it's only natural that other people know about her.Angie smiled, trying to erase the nervousness inside her. "Oh, so you know about me? How come?"The man grinned. "How could I not know. Your name is at the top of the list as someone who needs to be eliminated immediately."Angie widened her eyes. "W-What? What are you saying?"Angie's hand was suddenly gripped tightly. She tried to pull her hand out of the man's grip, but to no avail."What are you doing, damn it! Let go of me."The man's grin widened. "Why? Are you afraid?""Y-You..."Angie turned her head and looked at Arok, who was in an equally bad position. He was pinned down on the sofa. One of the Wolf Gang members had a choke hold on his neck."Shit! I was trapped."Angie quietly reached for the pen she always kept in her shirt pocket, then quickly jabbed it into the back of the man's hand."Argh! Fuck
