Arthur wiped the sauce off my lips but he didn’t let go of me. His hand kept caressing my face, and | tried not to
think too much of it.
Arthur in my past life couldn’t have liked me. So why was this Arthur a little different. Could that Arthur have also
liked me?
My eyelids fluttered as the pad of his thumb kept brushing over my skin, makingfeel a slight tingle.
“Uhm, certainly you are handstoo, Arthur,” I said, and he ccloser to me, standing directly in front of

to me.
“Hey, you're lost again,” Arthur whispered, and | shook my head.
“No, not at all I lied. Then | smiled, and was about to say something when a sharp voice reached my ears.
“Arthur!” | looked behind Arthur to see none other than

Eros was walking towards us with fast strides, and he was exuding both power and annoyance.

But Eros didn’t reply to me. He didn’t even look at me, and was glaring at his Beta, his hands were also thrust in
his pockets. Something was off.
“Is...is something wrong. King?” Arthur asked, but King Eros pulled his hands out of his pockets and looked at the
wristwatch. dangling from his wrist.
When he cand stood in front of Arthur, he asked, “What is the tnow, Beta?” His voice was laced with
authority and Arthur hastily checked his watch.
“It is close to 9 am, King.”

asked his Beta.
“You were supposed to cmeetat 8 am.
Why is it that | have to go looking for you and then find you chitchatting with my breeder.”

His behavior was confusing!

Eross body posture was tense, and his shoulders were rigid. A muscle in his jaw twitched at Arthur's words and
he dragged him a few feet away from me.
Despite being just the start of the day. Eros was ready in his work clothes, and | also saw a stain of ink on his
hand.
Did he already started working at the crack of dawn?
Meanwhile, | stood there wondering what the hell Arthur was blabbering about. What was an anchor and why
was | being considered that?

Eros also calledhis cure, so what's an anchor?

After changing into fresh clothes, | stepped outside the room and wondered what to do for the rest of the day.

something”
| smiled at her and replied. “Are you on a mission to make everybody eat as much as they can?”
Glinda gasped and pretended to be shocked “How did you find out?”
| giggled and still sat on the chair as she brought shot food forto have. The aroma wafting through the
air madefeel hungry, and 1 gobbled up everything that she served me.
My eyes kept drifting to the other side of the mansion, Eros’s office, to be specific. The two seemed to be still in
smeeting, but I didn’t want to go to his office again after the last incident.
Thus, | finished my food and got up from the table, and at the smoment, | saw Arthur walk out of the office.
| waited for him as he began climbing down the stairs, a worried look on his face. His shoulders were a little
slumped, and he didn’t have his usual smile.
When he reached downstairs, he gavea small smile, but it lacked his usual energy “Hey is everything
alright?” | asked and Arthur nodded his head,
Yeah
| went closer to him and asked, “Are you sure? You don’t look okay to me.”
Arthur said in a low voice, “Well, Eros was not happy that | made him wait for two hours. He had been waiting for
an important piece of information fromand | was playing around with you.”
| had to cto terms that Eros and Arthur in this life aren’t best friends. They have a work kind of relationship
now.
| furrowed my eyebrows. That is so wrong. You were trying to helpand you did say that you went to his office
twice.” But Arthur shrugged it off. “He is punctual and does not like latecomers. Ill be careful next time.”
| frowned. Poor Arthur's face looked so sad because Eros had shouted at him for nothing.
“You should really be expressive, you know. Just because he is the King doesn’t mean he can treat you like this,”
| said, and Arthur quickly looked around.
“No, it's not like that. He just seemned a little off about something Maybe all this work is stressing him. | know he
needs to really get a life.
| chuckled at that. | couldn't imagine this Eros doing anything except digging his head in the files and sitting in
his office.
And my body remindedof how his head, or rather his face had been buried elsewhere, in between my legs. |
shuddered.
