Chapter 494 AN UNEXPECTED SITUATION

REAS got out of the taxi and walked into the apartment building. He felt a bit lethargic because of the intensity of the training this past week. It’s actually advisable to just stay in the dorms, but Reas couldn’t do it. Because he could only meet his brother during the weekends. He didn’t want to give up the chance to meet his brother regularly just so he could have more rest.

But because he was really particularly tired, he woke up a bit late today. He didn’t even manage to do his usual morning workout because he quickly left the academy. That’s why it’s already nearing lunch when he arrived here at his brother’s apartment.

When the elevator he was on stopped, he walked out and went straight to his brother’s apartment. Since the security on the door recognized his biometrics, he was able to enter the apartment quickly.

Reas heard movements in the kitchen as soon as he entered. He thought that Astrid must be making lunch. But when he turned in the direction of the kitchen, his whole body froze because of what he’s seeing.

There, in the kitchen, a tall man with white hair and golden eyes was holding a knife and wearing an apron. It looked like a scene straight from a horror movie.

Reas started to question his sanity at that moment. Because was he really seeing the General of the Fenris Squad in the kitchen of his brother’s apartment? Or was this just a visual hallucination?

The other, seeing him, also showed a surprised expression. But he seemed to quickly come back to his senses and greeted him; n0𝗏𝓔𝓵𝓤𝐒𝒃.𝓒0𝑀

“Oh, you’re here, little brother-in-law.”

“What the fu—”

Now, he’s not only having a visual hallucination, but an auditory one as well?

———-

“Then can I stay here to wait for you?” Wulfric said before he could finish what he was saying. “Promise, I’ll behave.”

Before Astrid could give an answer, or even think of what answer to give, his Terminal rang again. It showed that it was Ellis calling.

At the end, he agreed to Wulfric’s request just so he could quickly go down to meet Ellis before she decided to go up. When he got into Ellis’ car, it was only then that he remembered that Reas would go back home today.

“What’s wrong? You seem to be a bit antsy since earlier.”

Ellis’ comment brought Astrid’s focus back to the present. He had just finished his make-up and styling and was waiting for the shoot to start in his assigned waiting room.

“No, it’s nothing,” he said, trying to show that nothing was indeed wrong.

But deep inside, he was kind of panicking.

It’s because his brother still hadn’t replied to the message he sent him. In fact, the other hadn’t even read the message he sent. Which was not really surprising, especially if Reas had put his Terminal notification sound to silent. Something that the other would do whenever he’s busy. And by busy, he meant when he’s at school.

Reas probably forgot to change his Terminal settings. If he considered the fact that the other didn’t get back home at the usual time, then it meant Reas probably woke up late and went straight to his apartment, forgetting to turn on his Terminal notification sound.

There was a knock on the door and a staff peered inside and told them that the shooting would start.

Astrid stood up and let out a deep sigh.

He just hoped that when he came back, his apartment would still be intact.
