The loud noise didn't resonate well with Hayden, but the excitement pictured on Andy's face made him keep his shut. Besides, he'll be meeting Rose, the girl he has been courting for almost 2 weeks in a few minutes which made him a little eager.
Suddenly, Hayden's whole body screamed alert as he felt like he was being watched by an intense gaze.
After being occasionally targeted, he tends to know when danger is near, but subconsciously he found himself relaxing because the gaze doesn't mean danger, instead it kind of brings a safe feeling to him.
Hayden lifted his head to look in the direction of the intense gaze, but seeing numerous people and the inability to see those people's faces, he turned and walked away while holding Andy's hand.
“Invite to the dancing room. Mr., be my partner!” Andy said with a laugh as he bowed playfully.
Hayden smacked Andy's hand away. “Be serious”. Hayden warned coldly and then dragged him towards the bartender amidst dancing bodies and a flirtatious gaze from the two genders.
He scowled and shuddered when a man winked at him. 'What the hell!' he thought, and his pace increased immediately.
“Find me something good!” Hayden told the barman immediately after he sat down.
“Yes sir! Alcoholic or non?” The barman asked as he proficiently blended 5 different drinks for a lady who was lost in staring at the barman's muscular hands and handsome features.
“Blended!” Hayden immediately replied to the barman.
Suddenly, his right hand made its way to his hair and he began to tug his hair. Andy arched an eyebrow at Hayden's actions.
Hayden was lost in nervousness, which he tried to hide. Because he was dressing up for a girl, which he had never done before, he felt a bit nervous thinking if she would like his new style. He began to wonder if he didn't dress too much.
Thinking about it now, he suddenly felt stupid. He should have remembered that Rose would probably be coming over from her part-time job, what if she dressed simply and felt overwhelmed by his expensive clothing instead?
Thankfully, Lowse had an attribute! Low-key! He turned to Andy, knowing the person would be mocking him endlessly had it been he wasn't doing good. “I'm looking good, right? Not too flaunting, right?” He asked for the umpteenth time.
Andy eyes Hayden from up to down. Beautiful green eyes, silky blond hair, kissable pink lips, killer features, and a well-toned body with a cold expression.
Andy suddenly smiles, knowing that Hayden is nervous due to Rose's upcoming presence. “Totally! If I were a girl, I would fall for you!” He said with honesty to cheer Hayden up. Hayden's slightly nervous expression immediately relaxed.
“Hey hottie, is this place available?” A girl approached Hayden, winking at him seductively as she asked if the seat next to his right side was available for her to sit in. Her actions have already spoken for themselves. She wants Hayden for the night.
“My girlfriend is very wild!” Hayden leaned forward and smirked at her while sparing her no glance.
The girl was taken aback at first, but her face didn't change as she took out a small jotter and pen, which made Andy wonder if the girl had always planned to be ignored by guys. “If you think against it, here's my number!” The girl quickly wrote her number down and kissed the paper while looking Hayden heatedly in the eyes. She soon stuffed the paper into Hayden's hand and whispered seductively near his ears. “If your lady is wild, I'm wilder!” She said to him and then left with her seductive steps.
Andy whistled happily and looked away from his phone. “I told you, didn't I? You caught a girl with just your appearance. Even when you acted like a total jerk to her, she still didn't waver as she wanted to have the hot piece of cake.
Once Rose sees you tonight, she'll fall for you hard and tell you YES on the spot!” Andy exaggerated.
Hayden rolled his eyes at Andy's exaggerations. “Hopefully!” He replied and drank from the alcoholic blend the barman had just given to him.
“I'm leaving, I'll check up on you later. The girls are calling!” Andy said and patted Hayden's shoulder and turned to leave.
“Okay!” Hayden replied with no intention of following Hayden.
“You're really not leaving?” Andy asked one more time.
“Not! I'll come up with Rose.” Andy made an okay sign and went upstairs to where the class was having the party.
Not up to 10 minutes after Andy left, a ping sounded on Hayden's phone. He opened the message and his expression soon turned into a cold one. 'I'm sorry, I can't attend the club tonight! Have fun!'
“F**k the fun!” Hayden thought in anger because he was ditched by Rose again.

The ray of the sun passed through the curtain and landed on his smooth tanned face, causing him to frown slightly. The rays on his skin highlighted his tanned skin.
In a bedroom with low-key luxury, two naked bodies are intertwined under a blanket. The marks that glared at anyone who looked are enough to show how much of a wild night the two had.
Hayden groaned softly as he felt an agonizing pain course through his body, from his hair down to his toes. His whole body ached as if he had done something extremely strenuous yesterday, but he didn't, he only went to the club to meet someone who ended up not coming.
'Dang' Hayden cursed and groaned due to his ringing head.
He swore to never drink like last night again, he promised himself. Hayden rubbed his temple, and that's when he felt something big pressing against his behind, which made him shift away immediately. What nonsense?
Maybe he was still dreaming after all, but the bed felt harder than his bed at home, he thought, which made him open his eyes only to find himself in a room entirely different from his. He blinked his eyes repeatedly, yet the vision still didn't disappear. He immediately sighed.
Perhaps this is where he walked into after getting drunk due to anger last night. He thought and immediately tried to get up and that's when he felt the real pain in his lower body which made him yelp and roll backward and then finally fall into strong arms.
How come?
His eyes widened when he suddenly remembered hearing an annoying voice telling him to follow him last night, but he was hell sure that he didn't. Now! How come? Did he end up bedding an older man old enough to be his father?
Hayden's mind was a mess and his heart was beating faster as he slowly concluded with a disgusted expression. 'Someone is on the bed. Pain in my lower half… Don't tell me…'
Hayden carefully turned his head without moving and straining his pained body, and then his eyes met beautiful blue eyes that certainly didn't belong to that annoying so-called uncle. His disgust soon disappeared and all he felt was relief. Hayden was extremely relieved that he didn't bed an older man. But he soon gasped in shock.
That… This man was the so-called knight who broke the annoying uncle's hand. How come… how come the both of them ended up in bed last night?
Hayden's heart was messy, and the evidence was shown in his panicking eyes. “You. Me. How?” Hayden cried out in a raspy voice.
The blue-eyed stranger smirked and continued looking at Hayden nonchalantly, with no intention of replying to Hayden.
Hayden looked down, and his eyes widened when he saw the intertwined naked bodies of two with countless bites and marks with an additional fingerprint on the man's skin. Hayden quickly shifted back while blushing due to embarrassment.
Indeed, both of them did that thing. The realization shocked him and immediately caused him to spring up, which stretched his muscles and made him yelp out in pain again, with the stranger looking at him, his actions and expressions without a word.
The pain forced Hayden to lie again. With extreme fear and a fast-beating heart, Hayden asked again to confirm it in his extremely hoarse voice. “Did we???” Did he and a handsome stranger actually do that thing? Was that man the real predator and just pretended to be his knight?
His glassy eyes looked teary as he pleaded inwardly: Please let it not be true! Whatever God is out there, please let it be something else, not him and a man spending the night wherever they are! He cried out desperately in his mind.
Michael exhaled ruefully and ran his hands through his hair, silently lighting up a candle for his heavily trembling legs.All this time, Michael had evaded a certain lustful person and kept running to work to punish a certain someone ever since they returned.And now that a certain hunger-stricken person finally got a hold of Michael, he was almost tossed to death. It is right to say that this is the reward Michael deserved and got.Michael was thankful that he didn’t have any emergency case to work on in the hospital today, or else he would have died of shame because of his legs.That shameful fiancé of his made love to Michael like there was no tomorrow…He didn’t even know when he fainted under Xavier's predatory and lustful gaze!Thinking about it, Michael hasn’t set eyes on Xavier since he woke up, so where has Xavier been this morning?Michael's attention was suddenly grabbed, and his eyes glanced towards his phone screen that lit up.Immediately, Michael picked up his phone, o
Zenos’s eyes were as cold as ice, and a cold, freezing aura unconsciously exuded from him, his brows furrowing frigidly while skimming through the documents placed on the expensive antique table.Anyone who came across Zenos would only have one thought in mind: angry, dangerous, and scary.That person didn't handle the company properly. Such a disgrace. It's no wonder such a big company folded up after a few years of acquisition—spoiling all the previous generation's efforts!A scowl immediately dominated Zenos’s face, and he closed the document to scroll through the account book.Zenos should have cleaned up his newly acquired company before leaving. Seeing such performance could really infuriate one to death.Suddenly, Hayden pushed the door to Zenos’s study open. Upon seeing Zenos's lowered head, Hayden took a step forward and quietly called, "Zen.""Babe," Zenos replied without looking up from his work, his fingers rapidly tapping the keyboard at a flying speed."I've changed," Ha
Aria sat on a desk and swung her long legs while munching an apple elegantly, her eyes fixated on Hayden's painting in admiration.Aria blinked and tilted her neck in curiosity. "Thought the painting and designing are nothing but a hobby. Nothing more!" she articulated, recalling Hayden's firm words in the past."Hm." Hayden meticulously placed his brush down and straightened his back. His eyes took in the painting seriously, as if trying to find any errors.Upon seeing none, Hayden’s lips curved up in a smile. Even though the painting was only half done, it was beautifully executed.Upon hearing Hayden’s absentminded responses, Aria’s brows furrowed slightly. How was she to understand? If Hayden said it was nothing but a hobby, then why was he pursuing it? "You're applying for it, aren't you?"Aria’s brows raised in a mischievous grin, and she stopped munching the apple. She posed like a model shooting for an advertisement. "Who convinced your unshakeable mind? Zenos?"At the mention
Simon used a hand to ruffle his hair and extended his other hand to beckon the group to leave without him. Even though he just stood calmly, somehow he seemed to look like a supermodel posing for a picture. "You can leave. I have to stay..."Without giving Simon the chance to complete his words, a cunning smile appeared on Philip's face, and he raised his eyebrows endlessly and mischievously. "Ah. For the new crush," he declared with a dramatic snicker.Immediately, Philip tucked his hands into his pockets and looked up to the sky with his signature ever-knowing sage look.If that person could appear today, then Philip needed to reclaim his ever-knowing sage position.Upon hearing and seeing Philip's expression, Simon's face gradually turned cold, and he glared at Philip coldly. He parted his lips to say a word, but before he could...Philip struck a pose and ran a hand through his hair dramatically. He shrugged and casually expressed, "Well. Keep waiting, but remember not to keep you
Upon hearing a total stranger directing questions at Hayden, Aria's brows knitted and her face contorted in a frown. She tilted her neck and inquired, "Do you know him?"Aria turned to Justin with a frown before turning to Hayden again.Without bothering to give Justin face, she openly chided Hayden fiercely while indirectly poking at Justin."Don't tell me you've gotten a poor taste ever since this lady isn't here to monitor you," she chided while staring at Hayden with an expression that conveyed: Don't tell me it's true.Without casting a glance at Justin, Hayden ruthlessly responded with a helpless sigh, "I don't know him."Justin's expression changed, and it felt as if his heart had been stabbed fiercely upon hearing Hayden's cold rejection.Upon hearing this, Aria dramatically sighed while patting her chest. "Fortunately."Immediately, Aria flashed a smile at Hayden. "Now, let's go!"Immediately, Aria scowled and clutched Hayden's hand tightly. She began to scold him fiercely. "
Justin tucked his hands into his pockets and silently descended the stairs after being informed by a maid that his mom had called for him.In the living room, June, Justin's mother, was currently applying paint to her hand while watching a romance drama series.“Mom,” he called.June raised her head and directed a sweet smile at Justin. She informed him, "Starting from now on, Nougat will attend school with you."Her voice was so calm and sweet—unfortunately, her words held no sweetness for Justin.Upon hearing this, Justin felt as if a thunderbolt had cracked his world, and his mood plunged deep into the abyss.Right now, Justin believed he had just heard the worst news of the week. No—of the century. Attend school? Attend school with that bastard?Justin's eyes widened in horror, and he retorted in a stutter, “Attend? What? Why? How? Why should that bastard attend school with me? Why should he interfere with my daily life?”A surge of dread hit Justin’s soul hard and overwhelmed him
