"Those Two Are Really Craving Each Other!"

Only when Kieran steps outside does he notice Ace speaking to the wolves. He stands there, watching as they nod at something Ace says.

They look much more relaxed than they had a few hours ago.

Kieran can't help but wonder what Ace must be telling them to make them nod like that, looking so at ease.

"Could this be why he left the meeting room? Or did he realize how distracted I was when we were sitting that close? Haa.., Ace. Ace, you're driving me insane! Never in my entire life did I think I could want a man this much… no, not just want_ need him. Not just for the sake of it, but because I truly want him for myself. I want to make him a part of me, to spend every second of my life with him." Kieran exhales deeply, muttering to himself.

His eyes remain fixed on Ace, and then the memory of Ace kissing him flashes through his mind.

"And that smile… could it be because of the moment I interrupted earlier?" Jun startles Kieran, grinning.
