“Who is that guy?” Ian and Leo had been waiting in the reception area of Lloyd Gillen’s law firm for over two hours after leaving the bank. Initially, Ian had been so furious that he didn’t even notice the passing time, but now, with the anger subsiding, he began to feel stiffness creeping into his body. In response to Leo’s question, Ian shared the only fact he knew. “My stepfather’s lawyer.” “Then why is he buying your house? And in such a shady way?” “Yeah, I think…-

And so, it was the next day. “Aren’t you supposed to be at work today? Is it okay to be meeting at this hour?” When Leo asked, having willingly come to the cafe across from the hotel after Ian suggested they meet, Ian answered simply. “I got fired.” “Huh? Why? You didn’t quit?” “The manager said he’s sorry, but there’s nothing he could do.” The two entered the cafe and stood at the counter, choosing their drinks. Ian picked hot chocolate without hesitation, while…

“Alright. But tell me who that guy is.” Leo Sebastian wasn’t a fool. Just as Ian had questions for him, Leo had questions for Ian too. “That guy, right? The one who did this to my arm.” “Yeah.” “Who is he?” “…I don’t know. That’s what I’m trying to find out.” After a brief exchange, they moved locations. With Leo whining about being hungry, they grabbed burgers and fries nearby before heading to an apartment where Leo was staying temporarily. The building…

The convenience of selective memory was a blessing. Disagreeable and sad events could be forgotten quickly, leaving nearly no trace. When his adoptive father was murdered, or when his mother succumbed to severe depression and schizophrenia and began losing her mind, Ian didn’t let the tragedy consume him or fall apart. He considered himself lucky for it. Even now, when he looked back, the significant, painful memories were already faint. He barely remembered the bone-chilling dampness of the drizzling…

When he opened his eyes again, he was alone. Ian slowly turned his head, gazing at the sheets, which faintly held traces of them both. He had slept with Revenant. They hadn’t had sex, but it felt like a more intimate act than that. He’d shown himself completely vulnerable, spilling raw emotions, and the other had simply held him, unperturbed and steady. Remembering the whispers that had lingered by his ear, Ian clenched his eyes shut. If I hadn’t been angry, I might’ve given myself…

The piercing blue gaze wrapped around Ian as if binding him tightly with a single line. "… Are you scared?" Yes, Ian was scared of him. Even responding that he was scared frightened him, but he gathered his courage and gave a small nod. He felt like something would happen if he didn’t answer… "There’s no choice." When he said that, Ian felt so terrified that tears started to spill. Ian bit his lip as his eyes glazed over with a thin veil of fear, and the man with blue eyes lowered his…

“Wh… Who did you say?” Tim Hogan’s voice wavered as Ian, with a slight smirk, answered his question. “My babysitter.” “What?” Tim Hogan, momentarily distracted, spilled a bit of his beer. As he wiped the sticky foam off his mouth with the back of his hand, he looked back and forth between Ian and Matthias’s subordinate standing behind him. “Babysitter? What the hell are you talking about?” “Exactly that.” Ian’s sharp tone made it clear he wouldn’t tolerate…

The top-floor suite, which included a guest room, also featured a terrace and an indoor pool. Because of that, Ian couldn’t indulge in the luxury of enjoying the view below from the 19th floor while relaxing in the jacuzzi, but that didn’t mean the hotel’s design was flawed. After all, the scenery of this small city wouldn’t exactly suit the elegance of this suite. In that sense, the suite where the man was staying had everything the hotel could offer without leaving anything out. For these…
