In a spacious and majestic room, a middle-aged man sat on an oversized chair. On his head was a silver crown that made him look like a king.
The expression on his face was grim when he saw the handsome man who was just silent like a fool. His finger lifted and pointed at the man who was none other than Eros.
"I heard you brought another woman today?" asked Midas, the head of the Black Wings clan and Eros' biological father. His voice sounded unpleasant.
"Yes, that's right," replied Eros.
Seeing the calmness on Eros' face that was neither guilt nor remorse made Midas angrier. "Don't you have any shame, huh?!" he growled.
"Why should I be ashamed?" Eros replied with a question.
"You…." Midas was at a loss for words. He stood up and raised his hand ready to launch an attack, but his hand was stopped by a man who suddenly appeared.
"Dad, don't be so hard on him. He is your son after all," said the man who had just appeared. Judging by his face he looked a little older than Eros.
He is Leor, the older brother of Eros.
Midas snorted coldly. He looked at Eros with annoyance. "You see now? Leor is a good example. You must follow him!"
"Are you finished speaking? I want to see a woman immediately—" Before Eros's words were finished, Midas' hand went up again and….
Slap!
A slap hit Eros so hard that his body staggered backward. His head immediately throbbed several times. However, other than that there was no pain or anything else that he felt.
Eros just stared at his father blankly before finally turning away. His eyes glanced at Leor briefly, but Leor didn't know it at all.
"Stop right there! Am I letting you go?!"
Eros' steps immediately stopped. Without looking back he said, "Dad, you think too much about the image of the Black Wings clan so that forget 'the bushes that might turn into sharp thorns.'"
Midas frowned. "What do you mean?"
Eros just smirked without explaining what he meant. After that he immediately walked out of the room, leaving Midas who smiled wryly.
"That child must have been seduced by women's magic. How can I have offspring like that?" Midas groaned as he sat back down in his chair.
Leor watched Eros leave with a calm expression. However, the cold corner of his eyes couldn't be hidden at all. "Let him do what he wants, Dad," said Leor.
Midas was silent.
"What are you afraid of, Dad? I'm here ready to help you anytime," said Leor trying to reassure his father.
There was some disappointment on Midas' face. He didn't answer Leor's words. Instead, he stood back up and just walked away.
Leor silently clenched his palms. The expression that had previously looked gentle now turned flat. His eyes were cold and his mouth was tightly shut.
"Young Master, Madame Edeliel's illness has relapse!" cried a man who was rushing toward Leor.
Leor's fist immediately fell off. He changed his expression so quickly. "I'll be right there," said Leor who then walked away.

Meanwhile, in another place, Namara is feeling annoyed. She stared coldly at some of the maidservants who were currently covering her body with some unknown means.
The jade green-colored paste had already partially covered her skin. It felt cold and airy, but the smell was so disgusting. Namara wanted to wash her whole body right now.
"Come on, I don't need all of this," said Namara who tried to shoo their hands away. She tried to get up from her prone position on the long chair.
However, her efforts were in vain. The maids immediately pushed her back into place.
"Miss, please don't make things difficult for us. This is something we have to do. Otherwise, Master Eros will punish us," said one of the most mature-looking maids.
She removed the cloth that was the only covering for Namara's body. Her hand motion deftly poured the green paste onto Namara's back.
"You guys …." Namara didn't know what to say. She covered her mouth and immediately pinched her nose with her left hand. She really couldn't stand the strange smell.
"Can you guys stop touching me?!" exclaimed Namara who felt uncomfortable. Since then they have been so arbitrarily undressed and touched her body. It made her uncomfortable.
"Miss, we are both girls. Don't be shy."
Don't be shy, you say?! Namara wanted to swear. However, in the end, she could only surrender. She couldn't stop them all.
The maids covered every inch of Namara's body and occasionally massaged her gently. It is undeniable that their massage relaxes the muscles in Namara's body.
Namara became a little sleepy. She yawned a few times, but still struggled to maintain consciousness.
"Are you guys still long?" asked Namara.
"Just a little more time."
Namara waited with a nodding head. She couldn't hold on any longer. Her head drooped just like that which indicated that she was now asleep.
The maids didn't say anything. They let Namara rest.
Not long after that Eros suddenly came. The maids were surprised to see his arrival which tends to be faster than usual. They immediately stood up and bowed respectfully.
Eros glanced at the sleeping Namara and snorted. How could that woman fall asleep and ignore his arrival?
"You guys not done yet?" asked Eros.
"Done, Sir. However, she is asleep and we are not comfortable waking her," replied the maid.
"Hurry up and wake her up! What a hassle!" muttered the displeased Eros. He stepped to the side of the window that led to the green sea of grass and ignored the affairs of the servants.
"Miss, wake up. Mr. Eros has come," called the maid named Elise. However, her call did not awaken Namara's consciousness at all.
Finally, Elise raised her hand and gently patted Namara's shoulder. However, the place she patted coincided with Namara's birthmark.
"Aahhh!"
Elise's scream sounded so sudden that it shocked everyone. Eros immediately turned his head and immediately saw the figure of Elise who had fallen on her knees on the floor. Her face looked pale and stiff.
Eros frowned in surprise. "What are you doing?"
"Sir, sor—sorry," Elise whispered. After that, she fell unconscious.
The maids panicked. They immediately patted Elise and tried to wake her up. However, the woman looked very weak and showed no sign of coming to her senses.
Namara who saw the sight became stunned. Her brow furrowed in confusion. Just now Elise's scream had awakened her sleep. She didn't understand why Elise could fall unconscious like that.
"What happened?" Namara asked the maids. However, they did not answer, instead just staring at her with horrified looks.
Of course, Namara became even more confused. She took a cloth to wrap her green body. Then she moved closer to Elise.
The servants immediately raised their hands and signaled her to stay still. "Please stay there!" they shouted.
Namara shook her head in confusion. She averted her gaze and immediately met Eros's gaze who was standing by the window.
Had that man arrived long ago?
Eros glared at Namara sharply. His eyes seemed to penetrate Namara's body and penetrate every cell.
"Lyco!" shouted Eros. The person who was called immediately came in quick time.
"Bring the maid out!" Eros orders. Then he pointed at the maids. "You guys are out too!"
"Yes, Sir."
The maids immediately went out. Lyco himself moved closer to Elise before finally taking her out.
After they left, Eros immediately walked over to Namara. Every step he took seemed to create fear for others.
His gaze felt extremely cold and terrifying. He raised his hand and quickly gripped Namara's neck tightly.
"Tell me, who are you?"
