“I think I’m going into rut.”326350905d5fee27

Louis, with eyes like c0c8eea9d1 a rabid beast, glared 1f8e0f01cc at Anna, trembling. Anna spoke in a 3eef840785 calm tone, like someone 87a748e269 trying not to provoke a6ad2859e5 an armed robber.1d6c8fd86c422a10

[Dealer H:
When a male alpha experiences a rut cycle, he becomes completely uncontrollable due to shock. For the safety of himself or others, confine the alpha in a safe place and administer anesthesia every 12 hours. The symptoms of heat can last from three days to a week.
※Caution※ As soon as symptoms appear, do not hesitate to fire the anesthetic dart.]

With emergency b64c536ed2 lights flashing 47342f3ab6 in her 0a9630efb4 mind, Anna f91ffb4c00 quickly pulled 08f54ac433 out the aa4e6c9a3f tranquilizer gun 5f0b5f51e4 hidden in 06e2a7386e the kitchen 7fad3862b0 cabinet.85815ac8ded920bc

But Louis’s instincts were faster than Anna’s judgment. Louis slowly stood up. His loose shorts bulged awkwardly due to his erection.b9b1a630ef59b948

Anna thought she’d never forget today until the day she died, just like she couldn’t forget the night she witnessed her parents’ death.277d9089649f87b1

The alpha instincts consuming 171976d49c her brother were disgusting 8ad6ce520c and terrifying. Anna tried not a7e82338f5 to look at 4e81120881 it, even by ee36dd99c3 accident, and spoke 74c92464ea in a firm 49b9383cc3 and solemn voice.1eec211f2f154b50

But Louis didn’t hear Anna’s command. No, he couldn’t follow it. His instincts, flooding like a dam-breaking flood, paralyzed his reason.fed09a68f5072d20

The confusion disappeared from Louis’s face, his pupils dilated as if overdosed on drugs, turning his bright olive eyes pitch black. His unwavering gaze fixed on her, flashing ominously.5f6b04a6c000e340

Terrified, Anna 1f982aced1 shot at 82a8e81248 Louis, who 5aa5ff8ea5 was almost 20b783615a sprinting toward e78ff3fae8 her. Without even having time 3d4d50e10c to remember her resolve 7ffa088566 to fire just one b9d5d9a146 shot, she screamed and 40f84c9eb5 fired until all six c60b57aba9 shells fell.838b040f00596a4c

Fortunately, Louis didn’t die. The tranquilizer dart, strong enough to take down a bear, hit him, but his heart was still beating.ff89293e408e335f

Anna crouched beside Louis, placing her fingers near his nose. She felt a faint but regular breath. It was a relief that it hadn’t escalated to the worst-case scenario of needing emergency rescue.79ae1ebe455e67e5

Anna steeled her resolve. Pulling her T-shirt to wipe her tear-soaked face, she grabbed her brother’s arms to move his 6.4-foot frame. Dragging Louis’s limp, stone-like body, she headed to the panic room, which had nothing but a palm-sized window.6eaa794997e4af42

Si-ron wasn’t good at hiding lies and mistakes. Despite being praised as an actor who could perform well, he often froze in situations requiring impromptu acting without a script, and variety shows were his kryptonite. Even when he kept silent, his secrets were always easily uncovered.39b74e8ac918b23d

Si-ron had lived for over four years in an environment ripe for overdeveloped self-consciousness. As a celebrity in Korea, especially a noted actor, he was recognized everywhere, asked for autographs, and secretly photographed. After a scandal that made him a public mockery, it felt like no one in Korea didn’t know him.7ee5edc70faa945b

But upon d73b19980a returning to 8e6cf2e364 the U.S., 543b81c926 especially in 63a700bc34 Bargas City, b9fbf02977 where the afee342d4d proportion of 854a24c22a Koreans and 8df5ec2648 East Asians 33bffded9c was low, e37a4195e5 no one c2ae727162 recognized him 1bcf372ae5 or whispered d156ae0492 about his 31b0ab418f past.33095187373fd5a9

Occasionally, someone who a73f6b6560 had watched his fcc81a422c Korean dramas would 5ee683989b recognize him, but 0c744383ed that happened maybe 83b080588f three or four 06d65bdce4 times a year. When Si-ron insisted 46b6668713 he was just e0a58a051d a lookalike, they 06fd7b5102 easily believed him.19daa0b653863ca5

Perhaps because no 745aa184c4 one knew him, 7adf2b5bc0 and those who b7edb155a0 did treated him 11d8d7e661 insignificantly, he managed 74b4ad9c88 to cure the a002b150ec celebrity disease that 721f6344ff had spread like a3f9609d13 terminal cancer, rotting d20f875c16 his mind.f898a9c9ea0e2ebf

But those guys seemed suspicious. Why don’t they just ask directly? Every time I get close, they lower their voices and exchange glances.358b6c4928daf10c

As dinner guests began filling the small restaurant, Si-ron, conscious of the suspicious customers, hid his true feelings and served food with a smile. Then he quickly retreated to the kitchen, hoping they wouldn’t start a conversation.8dd2559451554e85

The delivery destination 6c6192db25 was a residential 2d9044c6e5 area beyond Summers 1360d62b4b Park. It was about a 9c0ce23ff0 10-minute ride by motorcycle d705ceb6c9 through the park, but cb3d7378be over 30 minutes if 7bb514d23a you went around it.17886b209bfffb77

Summers Park 935ea07071 was dangerous, dbc49a519e even in 8bcd9c8bb0 broad daylight, 3a1db0cdbb with drug 0f83214b59 addicts and 8db565520a prostitutes swarming, c4f599df17 making it 88e134eaf8 a feast 6070b9d89c for serial 8c0231befb killers. Although cars could drive 0c87cb1078 on the well-maintained roads acf061a77e within the park, most 992961feff people avoided it due 0f9154aa67 to addicts lying across 1e160ef750 the paths and took 07b4cfa060 the regular roads instead.
