And thus they played pool for long five… five… Five minutes… Why? “Astar! Levi!” A tomato red and very livid Noah, who was currently leaning over the pool table, ground his teeth. His grip on the cue stick was so tight his fingers turned white. Astar Levi, with his lips pressed tightly together, stood stiffly behind him with his arms rigidly enveloping the other. He said not a word, and his expression was grave, however, if one looked closely, one could see grievances spilling out of his eyes. So, one might be thinking, ‘Oh, so that’s what happened! This dawg Astar Levi shamelessly attempted to eat some tofu in broad daylight!’ Shameless dawg Astar Levi pleads not guilty! QAQ ‘I’ve been wrongfully accused!!’ He really didn’t, ah! He was very honestly trying to teach his baby how to play pool! And of course, when teaching someone how to do something, a hands-on approach was always the best… Ok, sure, the reason

What was with this strange feeling in his chest? Why did it matter to him whether Levi watched it or not? The man had already broken up with his sister, so what’s wrong with watching a strip show? Why did the idea of the other enjoying the sight ruffle his feathers? Noah exhaled a breath and admonished himself. It was perfectly fine to have conservative values, but it was not fine to push his own values onto others! Levi treated him like a younger brother, so he didn’t wish him to see anything R-18, but Noah had no such excuse to write off his own feelings! (Blackie, ‘Oh? So you too know the younger brother treatment is an excuse?’ (¬‿¬)) Could it be that deep down, he already had some thoughts and feelings towards Levi that he shouldn’t have?! 😱 … While the two were off in their own pink world of two, the strippers dancing around Astar Levi exchanged a glance. ‘What… what’s happening?’ Did th

The ex-groom and bride stared each other down. And judging by the equally fierce sparks shooting out of their eyes, if one didn't know their identities beforehand, it would be impossible to tell which was the Healer and which was the Enforcer. "Maery," Levi squeezed between his gritted teeth. Hearing that word, Noah visibly flinched. And Levi, who had always paid attention to his baby first and everyone and everything else second, instantly shut up and tried to retract his intimidating aura. Tried being the keyword. Maery, too, didn't wish to upset her baby brother, so she forced a smile. Unfortunately, that smile looked scarier than her frown. But fortunately for the both of them, Noah's reaction to the word had nothing to do with the tone or facial expression it was spoken in! No, no, no! There was a very different reason as to why he had always avoided referring to his newly obtained sister by her name! And that was because…

Levi was abruptly shaken out of his melancholic mood, and his mind couldn’t help but stall. It took him several seconds to fully process the other’s words. Then his nostrils flared, “For the last time, I am not talking any medicine!” “Ah, then there is your problem.” The look Maery shot Levi’s way at that moment couldn’t be properly expressed in words. It was a look that a kindergarten teacher might direct towards a retarded kid that just got his head stuck inside a toilet seat. It was the look that said, “I’m not even gonna ask how or why – I’m sure any explanation you can come up with will be stupid. Let’s just call 101 and get this over with.” Maery smiled encouragingly and coaxed, “Now that we know the source of the problem, how about I introduce you to a friend of mine from Med school that can help you get a prescription?” Levi’s face fell, and a vein couldn’t help but pop up on his forehead from how hard he was trying to restrain his temper. “I am not c

Levi stood there, feeling mightily confused. Um… can someone tell him whether his ex-fiancé was for or against him marrying his baby?? But who could answer him when even the person in question had yet to decide her stance. Maery, after another heavy sigh, clicked her tongue, “And your courting method is all wrong! Aren’t you supposed to be smart? How come you’ve learned nothing from Case, Fynn, and Shaw! If you don’t confess, that silly brother of mine will never realize you have the hots of him!” Maery recalled her brother’s earlier pure and sweet smile. And then another image couldn’t help but pop into her mind. An image of her kind and gentle little brother, all flustered and helpless, trying to escape from the naughty paws of the wild and imposing scoundrel, Astar Levi! Such a contrast in personality and appearance! And two men at that! It was simply, simply…! Simply a perfect pairing, ah!!! (⁄ ⁄>⁄ ▽ ⁄<
