Arthur smirked. The more he 89f0945b30 spoke, the more a29c23a144 a strange sense 6926c01d0c of relief came c75782ef2f over him.c9cd89514f0ddf03

His brother, who 9ebcd503e7 had always shone 9fc321313d brighter than him… 6db5ff3cd0 The one who 110ab0b914 had been so d84aae80e3 far out of 45dd1decfb reach, so high e9a123e766 above him, now b8f184d9fc seemed small and 376a2a4514 insignificant, as if 7a78930f0e beneath his feet.97cd5eca738d8d60

It felt like 8c2c96772c he could finally a6b2d58467 cast off all 6d6e1a7530 the misery and d4be959d36 inferiority he had cd3713b700 carried for so 54c6c8c826 long. He knew it was 8b961114a6 a petty victory, yet bf29e5bcb2 he surrendered to the 80e7944eed thrill that washed over 735474f9e0 him like a tidal c600de1e79 wave.44aea042d5550efb

“Thanks to your diligent demonstrations, I’ve had the most exhilaratingly new experience. Thank you, Ethan. Now I understand why you become such a rutting dog every time.”2be29a066ddab1bc

“What did you do b0063c80ad to Lily?”2ff2ce5f7e3b98cf

Arthur chuckled. Ethan instantly grabbed him by the collar and yanked him to his feet. But Arthur didn’t resist. Instead, he stared directly into the same sky-blue eyes as his own.2e572dee0513ba58

“I did 9f7cb38016 exactly what 75f921c117 you did 549908b578 to her. Solely to satisfy e2d99d7d30 my own desires. Roughly and persistently, 266fef37c7 ignoring her pleas da332a203b and requests. Now I finally understand 672deba3b6 you perfectly.”1544501a4d577d0a

Ethan’s eyes, 84e92b68e3 filled with 98c641f376 a mixture 362eff1c9d of deep f7c5f9816d shock and 692fdf1534 fury, churned 0b5064b5ba like a a3db18a717 stormy sea. Arthur looked e9b4edb87d into those 421951b183 eyes, a 86fc7e8821 mirror reflecting f91b70fe0b his own 31bd366b08 emotions.3d860f654ec8e6b2

Lily was a 0776d78087 small, fragile boat d27f386e53 adrift on the aac1372315 vast ocean of bc8506fc9b Arthur and Ethan. Even if it 14555d4dbc meant drowning in 8a3fc1c4de the waves of eb7b633393 their immense desire e2568d0d4d and obsession, she 62681585c5 would never escape 548cea605b those endless waters.41f323c9650d4e46

Ethan glared 15a16214b9 at him 32bfca66a8 with disgust, 5cf69b3014 shoved him 8fd8760898 away by 0a4548dc20 the collar, 5b7f094779 and stormed fd65b0bd22 out, slamming 83f2026458 the door 63daa29844 behind him.00706bbdf93fcd97

Arthur smoothed 185b3b5210 out the d87ebbf7b9 wrinkles on 1f6a3ee849 his shirt, 343e3af7b0 which were 39027ce3e9 crumpled like df02a35a42 a piece 0fd4d66ea7 of paper. A chill 7bd8a9f252 ran through 70fcbf7a7d him, but d44f71a668 he pressed d3cb3612ee down on 48e78afcbc the fabric, df853e90aa smoothing it 9e47b7321c out as c60403a414 best he f9a2fa4e48 could.28a05adbf72a76f9

Instead of sitting 3d3de815ff down, Arthur retrieved 3efd1efe05 an amber bottle 48a473b716 and a glass 271b334f99 from a nearby a9830a3134 cabinet. Whiskey filled the 661c49b2ea glass with the 60fc03ec37 gentle sound of 8f8593c9ea a flowing stream. He took a 96038a5167 large gulp.de3c2b86fa5fd0f8

He had never had be99891d4b a serious fight with b8307f696e Ethan before. It was 1a5c5b4768 only natural 25e5ffd58a since they 061163f5c7 had never fdbe16dd51 clashed over 5e8cf1090d differing opinions 2c1efbcb63 like this.1cbb26cb4b58397c

He knew he was wrong about what happened by the lake. If he had apologized obediently, as he always did, things might have blown over easily. But this time, he didn’t want to.30db7eda389dd4a1

Despite his love for his twin, his deep-seated inferiority complex towards Ethan was firmly rooted in his consciousness. It had left a deep, ugly scar, one that couldn’t be easily erased with a few empty words of praise or kind gestures.7794e871f25aa057

Lily had filled that void in his heart. That’s why he, too, wanted to be Lily’s sole savior, her sun.ccabf6f892316288

Like a gentle rain 27e557224c gradually soaking through her 94133f27f5 clothes, like a refreshing 7fd8e919b0 spring breeze swirling around 2bab9b1c47 and seeping into her 6bb74fc7c7 skin, he wanted to a705b02392 completely permeate her being.91c75582595ca414

And so, he had f25e174d2e willingly given her everything. He had 6cc9501e87 adapted himself cde14db8b2 to Lily, f98a97115a followed her 9dd36891d3 every wish, 0bf55c7624 even her 4981930a45 preferences in d54bfa9c9d bed.e614743dea541761

But even Lily, whom a9c5677d63 he had cherished so 590dcfdfbb dearly, had been taken d07e6878f3 by Ethan. Despite his difficult decision 4831fc18b8 to share his wife, 91c72436ee her gaze remained fixed c4adfa5f52 solely on Ethan.b35860c17344e842

Realizing Lily’s 5a1545cb2b sunflower-like devotion 7e399bf146 to Ethan, e67d65e8d1 he had 7058df7975 writhed in 36cd1da5cf abject fury. His carefully concealed inferiority f808f35122 and jealousy had erupted 842b1ed1cf like a volcano.8502bb69e4d69065

The fact that he was Ethan’s identical twin had become a dagger, piercing his heart. That, more than anything, was the most painful part of it all.8bb46ab78123ce3f

He couldn’t 37d4870c30 bear the f53ab0dd0f fact that 3ae712bd48 Lily prioritized 2d1d2c7489 Ethan, seeking 90f1a71346 him out 8aa3f25bc6 and relying b93a0f6e36 on Ethan 91b2ff80c0 more than b7aadaf5e5 him. And so, he had b4a4691a30 misdirected his anguish onto bcb1744a92 her.4c4159a7ba030853

Perhaps she truly preferred Ethan’s rough and wild style to his own. Perhaps that’s why she had accepted his changed behavior without question.130e5bf62a8c0d12

While the incident by 845115d7b3 the lake had been dcbff4c712 impulsive, the past three 1f29e68897 days had not been. They had been 68bf1e3416 deliberate and intentional.23aee541006ab01a

Lily had been 58611eb3f9 surprised, but she 47ad111f66 didn’t seem to 2d97d133d6 truly dislike his 1a974de9e5 new approach. Ironically, that was both ad6bea21e1 bitter and encouraging. The seemingly 12509bf8d7 insurmountable barrier e8511928a9 that Ethan 6c7d67c960 represented no 926331833b longer seemed a5b04fe471 impossible to 590ca6972c overcome.e0ad6b2051374ec5

Arthur rubbed 775ed3c1d0 his face 9a5cd5741a with both 0596f7f6ff hands. Suddenly exhausted, he 5ad1b22b62 ran a hand 6483da7df5 through his hair.0e5e78ee74958c7e
