Chapter 24: Lobotomized wife ( Emiliano’s POV )
I’ve been awake for 96 hours.
I am aware that it’s not healthy at all, but since Luther was- relocated, my schedule was aching for attention.
Let’s rewind everything I did in the last four days: I have dealt with the Akna’s heir trying to kill me, I have dealt with a Prime Minister tantrum and I had a very amusing meeting with the woman who ruined my life.
And now- thanks to my dear wife- I had a riot to deal with.
Half my lab rats are dead.
It’s fine. It’s ok. It’s manageable.
All that started this killer strike was Killian.
I was on the phone with Claus. Well—not exactly. I was holding a monologue while Claus graciously listened.
As I was enjoying my one-sided conversation, Lucrezia’s golden boy interrupted. Rudely.

I’ve had disobedient pets before. But none as stupid as him.
Just minutes ago, I gave him a rather direct demonstration of what my pheromones are capable of. A dreadful display, yes—but necessary.
