Chapter 39: Sweetie?
"Where are you running off to frantically?"
Stephan bumped into Aiden in front of the nurse’s office building rushing to meet the nurse following Zenith’s command. He was still skeptical about Zenith’s gestures when he suddenly showed up in front of his door like that. But being bumped into Aiden who held a stoic look as usual on his handsome face, Stephan mumbled, "I am going to the see the nurse as per Zen...I mean Master Zenith’s order. He only came to my room to let me know that the nurse had been looking for me for a while."
Hearing Stephan’s answer, Aiden frowned his thick brows in disbelief while staring still at his face. Compared to Aiden, Stephan was quite smaller than him as well in height, as he leaned his stern gaze on him when he answered, "Zenith showed up in your room...asking the nurse is looking for you?"
"Yes, he did."
"But the nurse has taken a leave of absence today. I heard she’s ill. So, why would she look for you?" Aiden coldly addressed him, and his words flinched Stephan pretty hard.
Standing frozen for a few seconds, Stephan scratched his head with confusion as he blurted, "Then...d-did Master Zenith lie to me? But he c-came to my room to say to me that..."
"Alright, let’s head to your room right now." Using his frigid tone, Aiden didn’t wait for his answer before he marched toward Stephan’s room. Unable to object to him, Stephan also nervously followed after him but his head was puzzled inside from the thought what if Aiden discovers Kylian in his room and reveals it to Zenith later on?
In fear that Zenith might really pounce on him after Aiden notifies him, Stephan tries to stop Aiden from reaching there, "M-Master Aiden, you won’t have to go there right now. I...I mean my room is kind of messy, so I can just go and take a quick look to see if M-Master Zenith is still present there—"
"Shut up, and I really hate unnecessary conversations." Aiden rebuked him with a scowl while speeding his steps ahead. Soon, when they reached Stephan’s room, both of them saw the door was open, and Zenith’s strong pheromones were still lingering in the air inside, but the room was completely empty.
