Both the male lead and his lover sat before each other, seemingly acting like they were unfamiliar with each other. Tyler never opened his mouth, stuffing the food in his mouth without any hesitation. It even seemed like he didn't have the male lead in his eyes.
Lucas felt awkward at that. So he cleared his throat and said, "Tyler…" He paused as if he felt the name rolling on his tongue sounded sweeter than a desert. So he couldn't help but want to say again. But just as he opened his mouth, Tyler glanced at him with cold eyes.
"What?"
The male lead's gaze didn't leave the person before him who ate while wearing a silver mask, dazzling in the light. This person was an omega who had unknowingly touched his heart.
At this time, he couldn't help but frown. If he weren't already married, he wouldn't have to think twice before proposing the omega before his eyes.
Tyler had everything starting from his magnetic voice to beauty. Even though Lucas couldn't see the former's face, he knew this person was handsome. But he suddenly saw a trace of impatience flashing across Tyler's eyes, making him realize that he had perhaps wasted a lot of time thinking about this person's beauty and didn't reply to him. So Lucas quickly said, "Nothing. You can order anything you like."
"Am I not eating already?" Tyler tilted his head, rejoicing in his heart. This male lead was acting like a little teenager in love. Now he realized why this person liked flirting so much. It was fun to tease such a big man!
Lucas felt awkward again and scolded himself in his heart. What the hell was he saying?! Had he gone mad? He was already famous across the kingdom for his smooth tongue. Yet, in front of this person, he lost his ability, talking gibberish! So he pulled his lips up and forced a smile. "You can order more!"
Tyler showed a brilliant smile as he put down the spoon. "Mr. Cohen, I appreciate your concern, but I didn't think you would be this awkward. Why don't you tell me something about yourself?"
The male lead could tell that Tyler had already figured out what was going on in his mind and shook his head. Suddenly, he felt his shoulders relaxing at this thought, and he said, "Don't you know already? You must have read it on your smartwatch."
Since this was an advanced world, they didn't use laptops and phones anymore. They had an advanced version of a smartwatch. You would just have to press the red button on your wristwatch and a big screen will be displayed before your eyes showing all the facilities.
Tyler shrugged. "Tell me again." The reason why he wanted to know was that the things written on online websites might not be true, but what his lover said would at least be 80% right. This would help him plan his future in this world properly.
Thankfully, this world didn't have the highest level of restrictions. Otherwise, he would have been doomed because he would be forced to say everything according to the storyline.
So the male lead started his tale. According to him, this world's Empire had been ruling the world for the past century. And every time, the first child would become the crown prince depending on the power and the intelligence of the child. But in rare cases, the officials would be forced to select a second or third son depending on the situation.
The first situation would be where the eldest son failed the examination conducted specially to test the future emperor's skills. And the second one would be when the eldest son might end up being an omega.
"In my father's case, he was the third son, and the first two were omega." The male lead said, "Even though an omega can rule, their bodies are weak, and they can't fight against the enemies in the front lines. And back then, the enemies were creating a lot of trouble. So they didn't change the rule and instead directly sent the third alpha son to take the exam."
"Tell me about the exam." Tyler opened his mouth and uttered those words instantly.
"Well, they allow the candidate to fight against virtual enemies and win. That would tell you about how powerful you are! And second, they would also include various tasks that require intelligence…."
Tyler heard this and frowned. "You didn't give any test."
"I wasn't interested in the throne. After all, I already have an ambitious brother."
So it seemed like Lucas knew his brother's heart well enough. After this, Tyler didn't say anything and focused on the food.
The male lead saw this and became dissatisfied. He shouldn't have paused like this suddenly. Now Tyler seemed to be uninterested in him! Should he continue to tell him more things about him?
"I have never been in a relationship!"
Tyler paused and tilted his head at his senior. Was he starting to spout nonsense again?
The male lead, however, ignored the confused Tyler and continued to talk shamelessly. "Actually, when I was in college, we never had any omega around us. So it was basically impossible to fall in love. And when I joined the military, we did have omega, and a few of them even gave me love letters, but-"
"I'm not interested in listening to that." Tyler suddenly spoke while wiping his lips with a paper cloth. "Whatever your past was, I'm not interested. But yes, if you have plans for the future, I'm all ears."
The reason why Tyler didn't want to hear anything about the original Lucas's love life was that he knew it was the original owner who had taken that step. So he was no longer interested in anyone's private life.
But to the male lead, who was stunned, it looked more like jealousy. It even seemed that Tyler couldn't handle hearing about his exes anymore, so Tyler rudely rejected even talking about it. The male lead couldn't help but be delighted.
"So shall I drop you somewhere?"
Tyler, on the other hand, rejected this. First, he didn't want this person to know about his house anymore. He perfectly knew that his senior would come unannounced at his place and realize that Tyler and Victor were one person. So it was better to be safe than sorry. Plus, he also had to perform the things that the original Victor had done to finish the arc. So he gently rejected his lover and got up.
