Chapter 60: Pheromone Bonding
The warm gold of sunlight streamed in through the penthouse windows, trailing behind Muffy as he ran a flying vacuum cleaner over the curtains, up to the very top near the ceiling.
"Muffy, when’s the repairer coming?" Renar asked, seated on the couch while sipping his coffee, eyeing the crack on the wall that was an eyesore to his view.
"We had an appointment around eleven, Master. It should be done before sunset."
"Good then. I don’t want some stranger still here when we come home later. And Tuffy, we’re eating dinner outside."
Renar didn’t lift his gaze from the tablet screen as both robots processed his commands, already knowing what needed to be done.
His eyes flicked back to the cracked wall, and he could still feel the ache from punching it at full force. Not the physical ache, that was just a fleeting sting, and did nothing to his fast-healing body.
It was when he watched the restored CCTV footage that had mysteriously gone. That was when the blood in his veins surged, his breathing turned ragged, and instinct took over. He lashed out at the wall in pure rage.
Seeing Caelum carry Lethia’s unconscious body had sent him mad. Not because he believed Caelum might’ve done something inappropriate—no, he knew Caelum wasn’t that depraved.
Renar had already predicted Lethia would faint more often the moment he learned she was a wolfless pregnant woman with a strong energy of fetus. So, in theory, he should be thankful someone found and helped her during a moment like that.
But why the fuck did it have to be Caelum?
Why could Caelum smell her scent too?
