Finding You, Again
INTERVAL - Something You Need to Remember

The girl who had been buried in despair raised her head with a jolt.

His ears caught the call of the one door that was in front of him. And the call gets louder and louder.

The girl hurriedly got up and approached the door of origin of the sound she heard.

Joy and gratitude permeated his body. His ears are not wrong.

Someone called out to him, and now he saw the doorknob in front of him swaying, a sign that someone was trying to open it from the other side.

Excitedly, the girl started banging on the door.

"Help me, I beg you to open this door" he whispered, full of.

I don't know how long he's been locked up in this boundless dark room. Dark, lonely and alone. Finally someone heard his call.

The voice that called out to him was still very clear, but somehow the door remained frozen. Although the girl had also helped by shaking him with all her might, the door remained firmly closed.

Bee... Are you there?" A very familiar voice whispered behind the door where he was leaning.

"Yes. I'm here. I beg you to open the door" he pleaded with the rest of his energy.

"I'm not going to open it Bee, but you" whispered a voice behind the door again

"I can't open it" said the girl slowly.

"You're gonna be able to open it now, you know who I am?"

"I don't.." the girl shut her mouth before she could finish the sentence.

He did not know who the man was talking from behind the door, but there was a feeling of longing and nostalgia that enveloped his heart.

He wanted to shout out a form of name gathered at the end of his tongue, but his brain was unable to voice it properly.

"I'll wait for Bee" said the voice again.

"I beg you not to leave me again" the girl begged greatly, unable to bear all the silence and darkness that had kept her locked up all this time.

"Wouldn't Bee, I've never left you" that heavy, clear voice gave him a calmness he had never felt all along.

"I'll always be here with you"

The girl was getting confused, she was very sure of knowing the voice.

But as soon as he wanted to call out his name, his mouth was locked. He closed his eyes trying hard to call the man behind the door.

"Bee...?" a soft voice called her slowly. And like a miracle, a name was present on his lips.

"Pace.....?? " whispers watered.

THE PIECE OF MEMORY

"What is that noise?"

The blue-eyed girl asked in an annoyed tone.

Her blond hair neatly tied behind her head, swayed in the wind, as she opened the car window to get a clearer look at the state outside. Her beautiful face was slightly damaged as it now bore gloom.

His mood is very bad, to the slightest disturbance, very potential to make his mood worse.

His car docked at the London Heathrow Airport drop point.

"It looks like there's a celebrity who's going to make a flight from this airport. I saw a signboard with David's name on the cackle earlier".

The woman whose short hair was almost all whitened replied, looking at the crowd of people who were mostly female.

They numbered in the hundreds, and were all chatting simultaneously noisily. The group was clearly a crowd of fans. They were waiting for his idol who would make a flight from this airport as well.

In addition to the crowd of fans, the mob of reporters were apparently also there. They were watching vigilantly, waiting if the person he was waiting for suddenly appeared.

Looking at the large number of journalists, we can be sure they are waiting for top celebrities.

The usual sight actually. But then again, the girl was in a very sensitive state. He did not allow the slightest disturbance to disturb his heart.

"Man is less than work!!" his grunts while dragging a large suitcase, followed the middle-aged woman who had started to step into the airport.

He actually did not mind using commercial flights, but the bustling and sultry atmosphere at the airport, managed to increase his anger rate. He should have waited until his father's plane was in London.

"Lui! We're almost too late" The woman waved her hand telling Lui to walk faster.

Lui was getting sullen, she didn't like being rushed. Moreover, this trip was not done on his wishes.

If not for the persuasion of his beloved sister and also his mother, he would rather just roll in his room and forget all about the world around him.

He no longer had anything to fight for. The one thing that matters most in his life, has been forcibly snatched away. The state of his body that required him to choose bitterness as he was now.

The memory of it, made her tears back inundated.

But Lui removed it before it actually fell. She was determined not to cry in public, moreover there would be a chance she would faint if crying was too intense. Lui took a deep breath to calm herself down.

"You wait here for a second, I'll take care of a few things first"

Lui simply nodded, having no desire to open her mouth.

The girl knew, she shouldn't have treated Charlie coldly, because she was just acting like usual.

But her overprotective attitude like her brother, made her always remember what made her what she was now. And because of that, they all treated her like a glass girl!!!

Lui shook her head violently, trying to expel the unpleasant thoughts that filled her head with despair.

He glanced in all directions, trying to enjoy the busy scenery offered by the airport. The airport is London's busiest airport, there should be plenty to see.

******o0o******

At the same dropping point, the black cab stopped. Two of the passengers complained at the same time when they saw the crowd at the airport.

"They know you're leaving today?" asked the short dark brown haired man, asking the man next to him, who had slightly long black hair.

Wide sunglasses perched on his nose. His forehead shriveled at the view outside the taxi window.

"No! My flight's start schedule is actually tomorrow. But they must have guessed it correctly. After all the rubbish that was reported last night, they knew I was going to leave London sooner" he explained, sighing in despair.

"Yeah, that's not a hard thing to guess Duke. That snake lady really pranks you dude!" A sympathetic look drifted from the short-haired man.

"There's no point in discussing it right now, now the important thing is we should try not to attract their attention" Duke took out a black mask and partially covered his face.

He had to get off immediately, the taxi driver started looking at them strangely, because they did not go down after arriving at their destination.

"Come on El" said Duke stepping into the airport with his head down.

Duke hopes his disguise is enough to fool the mob waiting for him at the airport. He was very lazy to explain the damned incident. His mind and body were tired.

Imagining the snake woman's face alone made her nauseous. The piercing aroma of her perfume made her have to hold her breath every time she approached her.

It's disgusting! his mind while shuddering.

The clothes he wore today were very far from his usual style.

Duke only wears black short shirts, leather jackets and also faded blue denim pants. The suitcase that usually never absent accompanied him during the trip anywhere, replaced with a practical dark blue backpack. His black hat was pulled down so much that his face was hidden.

His popularity for 2 years more work in the world of singing is very extraordinary. He is currently ranked as the 10th largest-earning musician in the world. Hiding his figure was an almost impossible job.

Early in his career, for safety reasons. He is very secretive and rarely shows his face in front of the media. But as it gained popularity, the record label urged him to show up. And the Duke regretted it in such a short period of time, he could not live normally afterwards.

But Duke adjusted quickly. With the lessons he received from a special school as a child, he was able to put himself into his current role.

But only one makes it always a hassle. That is a lot of female fans who chase wherever he goes. Like at the moment.

That's why he brought El, to camouflage.

El is a new face unknown to fans and journalists. With him, they would not look at him in detail. His disguise to be an ordinary passenger, will be complete with El beside him.

But actually El objected to this sudden plan. He muttered softly next to Duke, about how he should not have left the campus at this time.

"Your summer vacation started 2 days ago El. You don't need to be on campus" Duke exasperatedly argued.

"In fact, I've got a lot of part-time work to fill it. You certainly know my tuition fees are not cheap" he said, glaring in the head at what salary can be obtained, if his working time is cut by this trip.

The Duke was upset.

He would be happy to pay all of El's tuition fees, without the need for a return. But El refused him outright, arguing that he no longer wanted to bother him.

"I will pay you 3 times an hour, as long as you accompany me on this journey" Duke said, as a last resort to help him.

El was momentarily silent, he wanted to refuse, but the bills of tuition and also the dormitory had piled up in the room. He has no other way if next semester he still wants to study at Oxford.

With El's brainpower, he could actually enroll as a scholarship recipient from college or maybe even apply for a loan. But the identity he was wearing right now was a fake. Of course, it made him unable to register for any program.

Escapees don't have many options.

"Alright, I'll count them carefully" replied El finally giving up.

In his heart, he slightly disliked having to accept money from Duke, because Duke has been very meritorious in his life. But his need for money was already urgent.

With a slightly limping move - once again to disguise his usual way of walking - Duke walked into the airport. Holding his breath from tensing\, he passed through the crowd who seemed uninterested in his figure as well as El next to him.

The heads in the crowd were still sticking out looking towards the vehicles that were coming back and forth, hoping that the passengers were the idols he was waiting for. While the idol, limping walked past him.

Arriving at the check-in area, the two of them almost simultaneously breathed a sigh of relief. "That was intense" El said as he stroked his chest in relief.

"Yes, I've never done this before" Duke said as he opened his glasses and slipped them in his pants pocket. He was actually less comfortable wearing it in a closed room.

El gestured pointing towards the attendant, and Duke gave a nod in agreement. Without wasting any time, El leaves her to take care of their ticket.

The duke looked in all directions to look for an empty place. It was hard because the airport was full.

He wished for El to finish quickly, so that they could head straight for the VIP waiting room. There he could open the mask a little freely.

After a while, the Duke finally saw some empty seats, and walked over with his hands immersed in his jacket pocket.

DRTTA!!

The phone in his front pocket vibrated. Duke pulled his hand out of his pocket, and pressed the tiny wireless earphone stuck to his right ear.

"Dave?" the voice he knew well called out to him, it was Justin.

"Yes?"

"You're out of London?" ask the manager's voice across.

"Almost, I'm at the airport!"

"I'll try to clarify that everything the damned woman said is not true, but it will take time. I'll ask Sal for help so that everything is done quickly" Justin said in a heavy tone..

"Are you crazy? What did you call him for?" The Duke immediately exclaimed in anger.

Sal would indeed settle this matter easily, but the payment he asked for never made sense.

The payment he asked was not in the form of money, because it was too easy. Duke doesn't want to do anything weird anymore for Sal.

Last Duke dealt with him, he had to do a concert for the vampires!

The fact that Sal is an inhumane, certainly never imagined in the mind of Justin. He only knew Sal was an influential figure in the entertainment world.

Duke is still lucky, Sal doesn't know about his true identity.

When they first met, he still routinely drank potions that disguised the scent, lest he be easily found.

If at that time his identity as a werewolf was exposed, the Duke would not mind killing Sal. And I'm pretty sure he'll do it pretty easily, but it'll be very eye-catching.

Attention was the last thing Duke wanted to happen to him. His escape status from the inhumane world should remain secret.

Killing celebrity vampires will obviously bring in many Hunters, not to mention human cops due to Sal's status of pretending to be an ordinary human being.

The Duke was forced to accept Sal's terms back then.

And the two-hour concert he asked for, became excruciating. The duke had to pretend not to smell the fishy smell of blood from the crowd of onlookers in front of him. Duke obviously did not want to repeat that sickening experience again.

And now, Justin was even presumptuously asking for Sal's help again. Duke almost cursed out loud, if he did not remember he was undercover at the moment.

The duke was so focused on his anger that he didn't notice someone approaching and called out to him from behind.

"Excuse me, sir?" a polite voice greeted him from behind. But Duke was still drowning in annoyance.

"What do you really want?!" the hardship was on Justin, still with annoyance.

Duke did not mean anything bad at all, but unfortunately the shout was very appropriate to answer the greeting of the blonde girl who now looked at him with a face of disbelief, because her polite sentence had been answered with a rebuke.

From where he stood, he could not see Duke speaking through the earphones. He thought the rude rebuke was aimed at him.

Those blue eyes widened full of emotions, his mood which from the start was erratic becoming increasingly worse.

"Is that a proper attitude!?" he nodded, with a voice no longer friendly.

Duke, who was beginning to realize that someone had asked him to speak, turned his back.

And when the eyes of the two of them met, his body seemed to be thrown into another realm.

At that second all the light and air around Duke seemed to freeze as all his attention was sucked into a single point.

Duke's eyes stared at the beautiful golden-blonde petite creature, who was standing in front of him with an unfriendly and angry face.

His body was much shorter than Duke's, but it did not detract from any value from him.

In each Duke breath, there was a sweet aroma of coffee, chocolate and a slight smell of the sun-filled forest.

Even with his nose still covered in a mask, Duke could accurately recognize all of those pleasant smells.

The Duke lowered the mask, in order to enjoy the beauty standing before him with all his five senses.

The girl's breath, the blink of her eyelids, her slightly sweaty nose, were all perfect in Duke's eyes.

All of that charm left Duke completely indifferent to the call of Justin yelling in his ear, as Duke no longer responded to his explanation.

While Lui who was very angry when treated harshly, could only be stunned. Because of the yellowish-brown eyes that shone sharply at him.

The rough man's face was covered in a mask, but those eyes were beautiful.

The man was gigantic in size when compared to himself. Lui was like faced with a sturdy rock that loomed before her.

But those eyes were the ones that caught his attention the most. Lui had never seen such eyes before. Not to mention that guy was very fragrant.

A gust of air hit Lui's nose as she turned around, giving off Lui's favorite scent, petrichor scent and sweet maple syrup.

The small movement as the man opened the mask, made Lui's breath falter.

Because it turns out that face is amazingly beautiful. The eyes were just a small piece of a hidden beautiful face. With such a face, it was natural that he hid it. Any woman would voluntarily look at him.

A high nose, thick black eyebrows, a sturdy face combined with black hair that slightly emerged from behind the hat. Lui barely blinked enjoying it.

For a few seconds they looked at me without a word. The angry words that Lui prepared seemed to vanish from his brain.

The duke who had also been immersed in his feelings, also did not take out a word.

Lui who regained consciousness broke eye contact in shock, turned to look for Charlie.

The woman approached him with breath.

"Good news Lui, the flight we booked has already departed. But in about two hours, there will be another flight to Paris. We are lucky that we still have tickets to book. Come on, we can wait in the quieter VIP room"

Charlie pulled Lui's hand to follow her.

"Wait!!" Duke prevented them from leaving.

He wouldn't let her go before he knew anything about the girl. She was confused by what had happened to her, but one thing she definitely wanted, was the girl!

Charlie looked at him in wonder. "Who are you?"

"Er----" The dazed Duke had to say what.

"He's just a brash, ungrateful man!" Lui answered Charlie's question with a sour face and an annoyed voice.

He remembered what caused him to call the man. His anger had returned, along with his consciousness.

"What-what?" The Duke stuttered in wonder.

What wrong? confused mind. He did not remember ever doing anything that would make the beautiful girl feel upset.

Lui threw the passport she had just picked up at the man.

"I just want to return your fallen passport. No need to beat me harshly. Are you the only one having a bad day?" Lui's anger was unstoppable again.

She had been holding back her feelings for these few days, but those warm, bright eyes of hers, made Lui lose self-control.

Duke picked up his passport from the floor, with his head full of question marks.

He remembered pocketing the passport in his jacket pocket. It must have been the passport that fell when he pulled his hand out of the bag.

But what makes the girl angry?

"What do you mean?" The Duke looked at the girl once again asking for an explanation.

But tears began to pool in those blue eyes. And miraculously, the Duke began to feel crushed and hopeless.

Duke did not know the foreign girl at all, but seeing her tears, Duke felt helpless. He would do anything to stop the girl from crying.

Whatever it is!!

"Don't Lui" Charlie panicked at Lui who was starting to tear up.

He had to prevent Lui from crying, or there would be a big problem.

"Here you go, don't be angry anymore. Come on!" With all his might Charlie pulled Lui's hand, to follow her.

He glanced at the man in the hat for a moment, nodding his head as a gesture of apology.

Charlie wasn't sure what happened, but Lui's anger was clearly excessive. Charlie had to get out of the way before the incident came to the attention of the crowd.

"Wait a minute" Helplessly, Duke wanted to run after them.

But the pull on his hand stopped him. "What are you doing? Why did you take off your mask?" El whispered in his ear in panic.

The Duke regained his senses and then looked around. Some people started to look at him with interest.

Quickly Duke raised his mask and put on his sunglasses again. The two of them then walked away to no longer attract attention.

"We're going to Paris" the Duke said firmly.

"What do you mean?" El immediately stopped walking in shock, because obviously the ticket he bought was aimed at Los Angles, in accordance with the purpose that the Duke had said.

But Duke did not answer, he approached the officers and asked if there was still room on the flight to Paris that left in two hours. After that he would go to the VIP waiting room of course.

---------*000*--------

"Your hair is very pretty" said Duke, taking a pinch of Lui's hair lying on her stomach in the grass.

He was reading a flyer about the circus that was coming in a few days. And the Duke took her there.

The sunny day and the warm Rhode Valley air, make their picnic today perfect.

The mats are shaded in thick leaves, making the Duke's choice spot today really comfortable.

"Eh..." Lui distracts, and grabs the ends of her long hair.

"My hair is just plain colored, it's blonde" Lui said in surprise.

"No, it's almost like a gold. Shimmering in the sun" the Duke looked at Lui deeply.

"Stop that, you embarrass me" Lui closed the Duke's eyes with her hands, unable to bear the Duke's sharp gaze.

Duke never realized how those bright brown eyes could make Lui float.

The Duke laughed out loud, knowing how Lui's face would blush after this.

"A little trivial fact to you, Eluira means golden hair" Lui explained after successfully repelling her embarrassment and sitting upright before the Duke.

After a few weeks with Duke, he was still unfamiliar with all the praise and sweet flattery he was given. Lui was very astonished how could the Duke say that without feeling ashamed.

"Well..it fit perfectly then. Your Mom is really smart" said Duke, the name was perfect for Lui.

"What about your name?" asked Lui with interest.

"Your name more or less means a leader full of peace. I wouldn't be surprised if you turned out to be a prince from a hidden country" Lui added with a laugh.

Duke barely chokes due to Lui's accuracy guessing her past. Then the Duke only grimaced a little without being able to give a clever response.

"My father has a unique taste" he murmured, reaching into the basket and reaching for an apple there.

Easily, the Duke tore the apple apart using his hands, into two exactly the same pieces. He then stretched out half an apple to Lui, who received it with narrowed eyes.

The ability of splitting apples by hand was unusual, Lui was sure of that.

Lui had seen some people do it, but with considerable effort and resulted in a deformed apple cleavage .

But Duke did not seem to exert much energy, and the apple that was now entering his mouth, the edge was very smooth. Duke does it as easily as tearing bread.

"Your Latin skills are pretty decent as it turns out" said Duke, unaware of Lui's astonishment, returning to discuss their names.

Usually people would just say her name was strange, but Lui knew for sure the meaning of her name. Duke also mastered a bit of Latin actually. Because he'll need it someday, maybe.

"Yup, my mother had a strange interest in Latin, as well as in nature and trees" Lui said.

Her mother is a little unique. He could fluently speak ancient Latin. Lui is therefore very familiar with Latin terms.

The duke nodded in understanding. He had already met Belva, aside from his sharp gaze, Duke did not see any other oddities. But since they had only met for a few minutes, it was obvious that Duke's judgment was extremely invalid.

"Your hair is indeed golden, but I see it more like this honey" said Duke, pointing to the honey setoples, which had been halved by moving on top of their stock pancakes.

"Hmmm...." Lui lifted the jar and watched it alternately with her hair.

"You're right, I never realized it" Lui said .

"Well..." Duke clapped his hands with an excited face, an interesting idea had just crossed his mind.

"Can I call you 'Bee'? she asked while stroking Lui's blonde hair again.

" Be? The bees? Because my hair is like honey?" Lui smiled because she thought it was a funny idea.

"Yes, and because you're always buzzing noisily when you see a field of flowers, like bees"

The Duke chuckled considering how enthusiastic Lui was, every time they had a picnic to the new flower field. Fortunately, France has many flower fields in summer.

Lui hit Duke's back slowly with a laugh, knowing that Duke's words were very true. He could never stem his spirit, whenever he saw a flower field lying before him.

According to him, it was the most beautiful sight in the world. His favorite season is snowy winter, but the landscape of the flower fields really steals his breath.

"Hmm. Now I also have to think of a nickname for you" Lui said, not to be outdone.

"The Duke Pacian Theobald...Duke Pacian Theobald..." Lui muttered repeatedly while thinking hard.

The Duke once again, could not hide his smile. He liked the shape of Lui's lips when muttering her name. And again Lui's hard-thinking face looked perfectly in her eyes.

"Ah. I know. I will call you 'Pace'" said Lui with a satisfied face.

Duke nodded at hearing it.

"Pace? Like walking pace?" Asked the Duke in an unconvinced tone.

"Yup... You like speed a lot. I won't forget how you carried me like the wind when we drove the car yesterday, you were too crazy about the speed. The name will always remind you to be careful at every step" Lui said. Complete with the style of a teacher who was scolding his wayward student.

"And also because of Pacian's name, I shortened it to Pace" he added, with sparkling eyes. The idea was perfect according to Lui.

The Duke laughed satisfied at once in wonder. That's a name that suits him very well.

And also for the wolf in his body. No one could match his speed when running as a wolf, that was what made him so infatuated with speed.

Once again Lui guessed exactly the essence of her. This is incredible, Inner Duke, stunned.

Duke held up his juice can "For our new name, Bee and Pace" Duke said toast in an official tone.

Lui laughed happily and went along to raise the juice in her hand. "For Bee and Pace, may all good thing happen to them" Lui said.

The laughter of the two filled the summer air in the valley, for a few minutes later.

The once almost impossible laughter sounded from Lui's mouth. But Duke's presence makes his life drastically change.

The never-tired Duke comforts Lui, making her barely forget the depression she endured from having to leave the ballet.

Lui was of course still disappointed by that.

But Duke opened his eyes, that the life he lived was only a small part of a spinning world.

Many other doors would open for him after this.

And Duke, make sure he'll always be by Lui's side when he opens one of those doors.

When and where Lui wants.

---------*000*--------

"That's a lot of pink, Bee" said Duke, scratching his head as he circled a row of large cans of pink paint lining most of the studio floor.

"This study will only accept Pace's elementary level disciples, it means they are children. And kids love pink, don't they?" Lui argued doubtfully.

To be honest, he did not have much knowledge and experience with children.

But this was the first important decision she made after she quit ballet. Lui was already determined to try her hardest to make it work. And he was happy because the Duke was here to support him.

"Maybe, but I think you can paint this whole building with that much paint. Imagine how Oscar would be happy, because you turned one of his buildings pink"

The Duke chuckled himself imagining it.

Lui laughed at hearing that

"I was probably too excited to add a zero on the back when ordering all this" Lui said, pointing at the row of paint as she blushed. He began to realize, the origin of Duke's astonishment.

"And why do you insist on painting this studio yourself? Isn't the contractor you ordered supposed to take care of that, too?" duke asked, tidying up some of the newsprint that had slipped off his tape on the floor.

Lui had already finished covering the entire surface of the floor with the newspaper yesterday. Duke actually wanted to help. But Justin gives her an extra job, in exchange for her day off to be added to a week. The Duke immediately accepted it right then and there.

The holidays meant he could spend all his time with Lui. The Duke would never refuse.

"Of course, they offered it to me many times. Especially after knowing who I am. One of his employees almost cried while forbidding me from painting. They were so scared that Oscar was angry. And I think that's ridiculous, because I've never seen Oscar angry. He was always friendly to his staff. Their worries were absurd" Lui explained, as she began to roll up her clothes.

He also curled his hair, so as not to disturb when he dyed later.

Friendly?

The Duke's forehead shriveled upon hearing that. The friendly word never crossed Duke's mind when describing the figure of Oscar.

Oscar is a lot of things, but being friendly is not one of them. Duke began to wonder, actually how is the nature of the original Oscar?

Duke's daydream was interrupted, as he saw Lui painstakingly sliding the stairs in the middle of the room. He rushed over and took over the heavy work.

"Well, look at that. I have a reliable maid" Lui exclaimed, seeing the Duke easily lift the stairs.

"And imagine, you don't have to pay him a dime. Amazing offers are interesting, right?" Duke also started rolling up his sleeves.

Lui's laughter grew louder at the Duke's words.

The duke then followed Lui who stepped towards the front of the wall.

"You do not realize that we are both artists in the field of music and dance? Not painter?"

The Duke once again tried to undo Lui's intentions.

"At least I want to try in this section, Pace, if the result is bad I will give up" Lui said pointing at the plain wall section in front of her.

"As your wish, My Queen Bee. Your work bee will grant it "

The duke began to dip the brush into the can and sweep it against the wall.

Lui while laughing amusedly also did the same thing.

The two of them ended up working with a lot of flowing stories acting out brush swings.

"We need a very large brush, so that with one stroke the entire wall will be covered flat" complained the Duke.

After an hour had passed, their work was far from finished, and the results of their work were also far from perfect.

The walls of their works, now full of uneven paint. Traces of their brush strokes that are not necessarily direction make the surface of the wall bumpy and ugly.

"Hmm... What if you transform, then roll over in the paint? With a single swipe of your body hair, this wall will be covered in pink!" Lui said half-heartedly.

Lui also began to get upset, as this job was not as easy as she had imagined.

Hearing that, the Duke immediately laughed out loud. It was a joke about werewolves that he had rarely heard. Although it was bad, he was still amused.

"Your father is amazing, and I hope you'll bathe me after it's over. You should rub every strand of my fur clean" the Duke teased as he looked with ignorant eyes at Lui.

The Duke's hope was granted, Lui's face lit up brightly.

"Pace!!"

Lui shouted while stomping her hands, and accidentally splashed a drop of pink paint onto Duke's shirt.

"Oops...!! I'm sorry" Lui apologized, but it was too late to hide the little smile on the corner of her mouth.

Of course the Duke saw that.

"It's war then!!" exclaimed the Duke, while approaching Lui with a brush outstretched.

"Agh.......!!!'" Lui immediately ran around the studio trying to dodge.

But how could he possibly defeat a werewolf run?

Within seconds Duke had managed to incise a long pink color on his arm, then ran away with a blaring laugh.

"Pace!!" Lui again exclaimed, but her face did not show anger, it was the laughter that existed.

And obviously, after all that, the painting job will be left to the contractor.

Because when they got home, the studio was full of pink. Except for the wall.
