"The closeness I want is not just like this," Beatrice smiled faintly. "But... truly close, not only through touch but also in the heart." She brought her hand closer to his chest, where his rhythmic heartbeat indicated that its owner was alive and that every nerve was stimulated by their proximity. "Closeness in the heart as well."Sam stared intensely at Beatrice. He remained silent for a while before blinking slowly. All the words that had crossed his mind remained unspoken. He exerted all his strength to protect Beatrice. The safety of the girl beneath his wing was his priority. But the closeness in the heart that Beatrice desired was something Sam still couldn't grasp.He was afraid. Many of his enemies knew his weakness.Ah... Sam shouldn't have worried, right? After all, there was Quassano who would help him protect Beatrice. So, what was he afraid of? Didn't his own feelings... resemble Beatrice's? It was him who spoke about his desires, his commands, and his requests, not all

Beatrice treaded carefully, her hand tightly held by Sam's. Occasionally, Sam helped her navigate the slippery stone steps. The rain from last night had made the path to the top of the hill much steeper than usual.Beatrice wanted to ask where exactly they were heading, but Sam didn't want to speak too much. However, Beatrice was amazed and felt a sense of tranquility that she had never experienced before in this place she had visited so many times.The hilly area covered in lush vegetation and pine trees created a completely different atmosphere along the path that Beatrice was traversing. There was still a slight mist obstructing their way."We'll arrive at the end there," Sam said, pointing to a spot that suddenly filled him with longing. The image of where he was once a happy five-year-old child, receiving love and affection, remained vivid in his memory.The gentle laughter of his mother and the towering figure of his strict father spun in his head. If he hadn't tightly held Beat

No matter how strong the wind that tousles her hair, her clear eyes are focused on one point. The string of words that forms a name has been engraved in her heart for a long time. She hopes that time could turn back, but it feels impossible. What has left this mortal world, she knows, will never return. They patiently await the reunion with those who love them dearly.Someday in the future.She sighed softly, then positioned herself on her knees beside the area where the owner of the name peacefully rests. She cleared away the fallen leaves that dirtied the surroundings of the grave. She gently wiped the tombstone, which had been replaced and looked much better than before. In the past, she felt unable to smile whenever she visited the place where the hole in her heart was truly massive. But now, she's starting to adapt."How are you, Tony?" she asked with a wide smile. "I'm sure you're doing well. Mom and Hera come here often, don't they?" She laughed, or rather, she laughed at herse

For the past two hours, Jack's eyes have not left his work screen. Occasionally, the window behind him provided a temporary distraction, where the bustling Flown could be seen returning to its usual state. Jack greatly enjoyed the constant stream of guests entering after passing through rigorous security checks.Flown nightclub was pulsating once again. However, Jack enforced a rule for its visitors. Initially, many protested, but the owner had entrusted the decision to Jack. No one could object to anything Jack wanted in Flown, including the tight security measures."Busy?"Jack scowled in surprise and sighed in annoyance as the person entering his room casually sat down without a hint of guilt. Ah, he blamed himself for not locking the room door after Sam's visit a few hours ago."I have a lot of work." Instead of venting his frustration, Jack chose to continue typing on the keyboard. "Why are you here? Aren't there things you need to attend to in the North?""Just finished." Eland

"Beatrice complained about a lot of things she didn't understand. I actually feel sorry for her, but there's nothing she can do except endure, right?"Eland nodded in agreement. "Help as much as you can, An. Beatrice is not a foolish girl.""Yeah." Anne smiled widely. "I'm learning so many new things that make me feel like I'm back in college. The mentor that Mr. Alfred provided for Beatrice is no joke."Eland gently stroked Anne's hair. "That's understandable. Beatrice is his only granddaughter. Being separated for so long, and well... her life story is quite dramatic, isn't it?"They reached the front door, and Anne's hand was about to turn the doorknob. She wanted to quickly make sure that the food they ordered matched Eland's taste and check if anything was missing from the dishes. But before her hand could reach the doorknob, Eland stopped her."Don't you want to keep me company tonight?"Anne blinked slowly, quickly digesting Eland's words that instantly made her goosebumps rise

But this time? Eland was picking her up on his beloved motorcycle? Anne found it difficult to believe, but her eyes could still discern between reality and hallucination. "Is it because you don't want me to ride on your motorcycle?" The words slipped out spontaneously. As soon as Anne realized it, her eyes widened in disbelief.Eland burst into laughter as a result, which only added to Anne's immense embarrassment. She wanted to break free, but unfortunately, Eland didn't release his grip so easily. Instead, he pulled her closer. With Eland leaning slightly on the motorcycle's shoulder, he partially trapped Anne, who was in front of him, with his free hand."I'm not thinking that way, An." He lightly touched Anne's forehead, giving a gentle push. It wasn't to belittle Anne—oh no, Eland had no intention of doing that. He was just so exasperated by Anne's behavior today. "We can reach the border by nine in the evening if we leave now. As for the return, you'll be exhausted on a motorcyc

Anne's thin smile tugged along with a faint blush on her cheeks. "Sometimes I feel like what you said back then was just a joke.""A joke?" Eland blinked in disbelief. "I joked about my feelings? Wow!" The hands that were once holding each other were released just like that.Anne was immediately taken aback by the unexpected response Eland gave. She shouldn't have spoken without thinking, right? But what could she do when the truth had been bothering her since the first time Eland expressed his feelings?"I wasn't joking, An." Eland sighed deeply. "Why would you doubt me when I genuinely like a girl?""That's not it."Eland chose to remain silent, making Anne regret expressing her doubts. No one spoke after that. The atmosphere that should have been enjoyed with joy by Anne was ruined, right? The girl sighed several times, sometimes glancing at the man who remained unmoved. Leaning against the fence, Anne occasionally noticed Eland's sharp gaze scanning the surroundings.This shouldn'

Eland grinned slightly. The cigarette between his fingers was already halfway burned. Occasionally, he took a puff, but more often it served as a decoration in his hand. It wasn't that he didn't want to experience the nicotine sensation, he just found it too little. Unlike Sam's cigars, which were never far from the storage dashboard. His boss was a rather acute cigar addict. There was always a supply in every corner of the storage, and if not, anything near the ruler could incur his wrath.However, this afternoon, Eland didn't feel like enjoying the cigars he could easily obtain. He preferred to observe the two people engaged in an interesting conversation that ended with a warm embrace. Then, a brief wave of the hand after the black SUV, driven by someone Eland knew, zoomed away.Soon, one of them leisurely approached him. With a wide smile, as if she knew she was being waited for. Eland didn't waste this moment. He quickly discarded the remaining cigarette, stomping it with the tip

"Visiting an old friend," Eland replied casually. He enjoyed the tequila served in front of him with gusto. Occasionally, the man's eyes closed to savor the sensation of Menwai's blend, which was undoubtedly different from Flown. "Not bad. You should try it, An.""I don't like tequila," Anne declined. That was her honest response before her gaze shifted to Bella. The woman's body was thin, her once beautiful wavy blonde hair was no longer there. Her face was much gaunter, as if she hadn't had enough rest."Take me away from here, Eland!" Bella almost bumped into Eland. Her eyes wandered, making sure no one was watching. She knelt slightly, focusing on the man she had known for a long time. She sought the mercy that she believed Eland still possessed.Although... in her heart, what Eland had done was unforgivable, but she could postpone the pain. She had to free herself from the clutches of Bella, the devilish woman, immediately."I'm not here to see you, Bella." Eland brushed off Bell

Remembering Ute does make Anne reflect to some extent. If only Ute had been honest back then, maybe her heartache would have been slightly alleviated. The traces and reasons for why Alfred did that to her could have been explored. The lowest point for someone like Ute couldn't have happened without a reason. Unfortunately... Ute chose to keep it to herself and played a role opposite to Sam's desires.The grave is well-maintained. Anne herself didn't expect Sam to still take care of Uti properly. It's different from Joseph, who was left to die and turn into ashes. But one thing that sends shivers down Anne's spine is that Ute was left to die without any help."To be honest, I hate coming here, Ute, you know that for sure," Eland said amidst the gentle breeze that caressed them this afternoon. His words immediately caught Anne's attention after she had finished placing the bouquet of flowers. "To me, Twin Dragon is family. Family doesn't betray each other, Ute." Eland smirked slightly.
