Chapter 11 - GLARE

The stilted building was simple, unadorned, and nature-themed. In order to keep its decor uniform, the booths were only separated by bamboo curtains. Although they separated the two spaces, they only blocked one's view. They didn't block voices.

Julien was startled.​​

Etienne was also startled. He furrowed his brows and pondered over this for a few seconds before widening his eyes and whispered: "Is he next door?"

As soon as Etienne's words fell, the voice from earlier confirmed his suspicion: "He is, la!"

Lucius the main character of their conversation just now had been sitting opposite of them and had heard everything they had said.

Julien's expression stiffened. What had he said just now?

When the villain and his friend appeared in front of them, there was no expression on Julien's face. Then he smiled slightly, looking at Lucius like he was seeing a stranger for the first time: "Hello, nice to meet you. I have to go to the bathroom!"

Julien stood up abruptly. He could not stay here!

Julien obviously did not want to actually use the bathroom. He would just stay there for a while and wait for the villain's departure before heading back.

He had just exited when his arm was suddenly grabbed. His back hit the wall. Immediately after, he was enshrouded by a large shadow.

Julien raised his head in indignation. He saw Lucius standing in front of him. The other looked at him while towering above him. There was as usual a hint of a friendly smile on that handsome face.

Julien glared at him with angry eyes: "What are you doing?"

The nearly unperceivable smile on Lucius's mouth deepened a bit. He suddenly opened his mouth: "Demon King? Am I that scary?"

His oppressive posture made the omega party feel extremely pressured. Julien felt a chill run down his spine and didn't dare to look at him.

A glimmer of amusement flashed in Lucius's eyes: "Don't you have anything you want to say to the person who once saved you?"

Julien widened his eyes in astonishment. He didn't expect he would so shamelessly ask for being grateful. He spoke through gritted teeth: "If you're referring to what happened that time… thanks a bunch."

Lucius lowered his head. Just a bit more and his lips would touch the tip of the other's nose. In a low voice he said: "So what are you going to do now about photos with me?"

Julien stared at him blankly: "Who knows. You can do whatever you want."

Julien discovered that Lucius's expression had become very gentle. His expression seemed to be filled with infinite patience, as tranquil as the ocean: "Posts and comments containing photos are automatically deleted."

This kind of expression didn't comfort him a bit.

It was just a look... it should be fine, right?

Julien looked at Lucius vacantly as the other retreated. Then he quickly turned around and began to walk away: "I won't be seeing you Mr. Valentinus. Bye."

Lucius looked at Julien's departing back. His expression was dark.

He curled his fingers slightly and his line of sight slowly moved to plated in rose gold inhibitor with the heart-shaped centerpiece in light pink. The petite pink crystals scattered along the chain and added subtle shimmer to the youth's neck. It looked fresh and feminine.

Lucius's adam's apple lightly bobbed as he swallowed but reason prevented him from releasing his pheromones in the end.

He sighed, how could he lose control like that?

If it was anyone else, then whatever, but this person was an omega and little brother of Ioan. Although he didn't think much of friendship with Ioan, he actually did not dislike him, he even respected him in the business field.

Now, he had felt a desire to sense the youth scent, which made Lucius feel embarrassed and angry: "What part of you makes me distracted, useless, good for nothing omega."

Outside the other man quickly walked toward the daring Julien and leaned over, looking up and down at him curiously.

He then reached out and patted Julien on the shoulder: "Omega, you truly are a warrior! Daring to offend Lucius right in front of him! Very good, very strong! If something happens in the future, you can come find me. My name is Noel Ozanne."

When Julien, who just had been titled a real warrior, heard that person's name his expression didn't change but froze. There were many people named Noel, but there was only one Noel who was also the villain friend.

The book male lead - Noel Ozanne!

Meeting him so fast...

Noel saw that Julien hadn't responded at all: "Hey? Omega, what happened to you?"

He raised his hand and waved it oddly in front of him: "You're not stupid, are you?"

Julien finally recovered and gave him mysterious smile: "Don't you want to know my name?"

As a matter of fact, when he did this, he made a certain someone unconsciously stiffen. Lucius schooled his expression, his inner thoughts unable to be read from his face: "He doesn't want to know."

With Lucius's black eyes gazing at him, Julien didn't evade at all. It was like he was able to pierce through his dark eyes to the bottom of his heart.

Time stood still. Even Noel, who had been clamoring, quieted down.

Of the two, it was Julien who first looked away, he turned to Noel, who had been curious and staring at him, and laughed: "Hello. I am Julien Baume, a second master of the Baume family."

Noel finally remembered why the name 'Julien Baume' was so familiar: "Ah! You're the legendary Little One!? You are the younger brother of Ioan!"

Julien, of course, knew why the other party was surprised, but didn't care, nodded and responded: "Yes, I am precisely that legendary... whatever it means."

Noel looked at Julien in the same way that Grandma Wolf would look at Little Red Riding Hood: "That means I'm also your Big Brother! Don't be shy Little One!"

Julien didn't know that the meeting would take an unexpected turn. Noel's gaze was rather wretched in his eyes. It was time to say goodbye.

Before he left, Lucius's black eyes glanced at Julien. Then, he lightly moved his gaze, turned around, and walked away.

Noel followed Lucius enthusiastically, waving and shouting: "Julien, remember to contact me on wechat when you have time! We need to arrange a family gathering!"

Julien also said goodbye to Etienne who ate carelessly all this time.

When he returned home, his mind started wandering again.
