Madness
Chapter 18's

The man next to Felix looks petrified. This new information left Nate quite in shock. He did not expect that Lin and himself had a blood relationship.

In Nate's blood, Johan's blood flows as the man creates it. And in Lin's blood, also flowed Johan's blood as his biological father.

This clearly answered his question all along, why could he be interested so strongly in Lin. It is because within them the same blood flows. And from the same person.

Unwanted, Nate's eyes felt watery. He clenched both his hands tightly. The man had no idea what he was feeling at the moment, considering he hated the old man so much.

Seeing that the man beside him looked quite emotional with this information, Felix could only smile. Just this time, he saw Nate's expression like that.

"Do you feel any interest in him?"

Hearing that question, Nate blinked his eyes. He looked at Felix and nodded.

"Yes. And very strong."

Looking at the cold man in front of him, Felix asked the same question.

"What about you, Marcus? Do you have the same interest?"

The man in question shook his head firmly. "Absolutely not."

It is very common knowledge that fellow Vs will have a stronger interest, if they are from the same creator.

The Vs who are lucky enough to get their life partner, usually will also have a partner from The same Master.

But the case of Alina Johan seems different. Nate and Marcus are from the same creator, but Alina Johan only has influence on one of the two men.

"It seems like this is indeed influenced by your preference, Nate. Have you ever been interested in a V woman?"

"Never."

"You're Marcus?"

"No need to explain. You already know for yourself."

Marcus' answer left Felix rattled. He leaned over his head.

After successfully mastering himself, Felix again looked at Marcus with amusement.

"You're right."

He turned his eyes to Nate.

"Maybe that's why Nate, why you're so interested in him. Because this is the first time you've met a woman who's from the same creator."

Downing the wine, Felix put the glass back on the table.

"You are indeed unlucky enough to have a Master who has only created two Vs in his lifetime."

Turning his gaze back to Nate, Felix asked curiously.

"Did the woman have the same interest?"

Thinking, Nate then shook his head slowly.

"I don't think so. He seemed ordinary when he met me."

The man did not want to tell in more detail the incident which was his disgrace.

"Interesting."

Felix's answer made Nate turn his head. "Why?"

"Frankly, your case is very rare. All my life, I've never heard of any Masters deciding to have children."

"Why?" This time Marcus asked.

"You know, of course, that The Masters created a V by dividing their blood into the essence of life."

The two men in front of him nodded simultaneously.

"When they fertilize a man, they must give directly the essence of their life to his seed, to make sure that it is so."

Felix looked at the two men in turn, making sure that they understood the important things he was willing to say.

"This process is believed to be able to reduce their total life span significantly. And it looks like this is true, if you look at the case of Alina Johan."

"You mean..."

"Right now, the old man only had less than 6 months to live. Though perhaps, he should still be able to live a few thousand more years."

Felix's statement left both of his guests gasping. This news is shocking. Their minds began to rage with different thoughts.

"How did you know?" Nate was the first to come to terms with his surprise.

Felix turned to him and smiled widely, revealing his neat teeth.

"Because she's my client, who's also looking for an existence on Alina Johan."

This made Nate aware of one thing.

"You've told us this secret. Are you going to do the same for him?"

The blue-eyed man swung his lips and tapped his chin. Think on.

"It will depend on them a lot. I'm never gonna intentionally tell you anything, unless they ask."

Without any guilt, Felix opened both of his hands and pointed at the two of them.

"You asked, and I answered. After all, have I ever explicitly mentioned one name?"

"You are a sneaky." Marcus grunting.

Felix laughed again at Marcus' grunts. The cold man can always comfort himself when he comes to his place.

While injured on his couch, Felix sighed and smiled at the two of them.

"Actually, I'm telling you this because I do feel like you guys should meet. The age of the old man is not long and he is eager to know the whereabouts of his daughter. Isn't this also your time to forgive him, Nathanael?"

A very thoughtful smile rose from Felix's lips, which described his true age. A smile that he rarely showed.

Hearing that question, Nate still could not answer it. He can only be silent.

The blond man got up from his seat, and walked towards his desk. Without looking, he waved one of his hands at his guest. Smootherly expelling.

"It seems that our conversation has been enough. I'll wait for payment from you guys, because my work is done."

As Felix was already grasping the table bell and was ready to ring it, Nate suddenly said. "One more thing Felix. Do you know where he is now?"

Felix's blue eyes glittered brightly. He smiled gently.

"I'll get you together, if that's what you want. You already know how to reach me, Nate."

After that, Felix rang his bell to call the big man in front.

Aware of being expelled, the two men ended up alternately shaking hands with Felix.

Clasping Felix's hand tightly, Nate smiled. "Thank you Felix, for your help."

The man returned his smile. "It's always nice to serve you."

Not long after, the big man came into the room and drove the two men back into the room full of music.

It seems that the more the night, the atmosphere inside the club is getting lively.

"Go home, sir?"

Marcus asked Nate, automatically a little loud because of the noise of the music.

Nate looked at his watch. Time has shown at 02:00 in the morning.

He turned to Marcus and was about to reply, when suddenly a familiar voice sounded in his ear.

"Luce. Come on, let's go home."

The man immediately turned his head. His eyes went around looking for the source of the sound, which turned out to come several meters from his position. Pretty far away actually.

Nate only realized that it turned out that his senses had become more sensitive when it came to Lin. He could instantly recognize the voice of the woman in the midst of this noise.

Slowly, the man stepped foot closer to the woman he was looking for. It looked as if Lin was trying to resuscitate his friend who looked stoned from drunkenness.

"Luce? Luce's? Let's get up, Luce. We're home."

"Lin?"

Nate asked as he brought his lips closer to Lin's ears, making the woman telephoto and turn his head in shock. "Nate!"

When Lin had just looked up and was about to speak, the swarm of men behind him suddenly pushed him forward, making the woman crash into Nate's body. "ouch!"

The situation at the club was very full and crowded with visitors jostling with each other. Making Lin forced to be trapped in Nate's arms while he waited for the men behind him to pass.

Nate tightly held the woman's waist in his arms. He was quite astonished by his current state, which seemed to be more able to control him despite being quite close to Lin.

Lin, who was aware of this situation, immediately moved a little away and looked up.

Both of Nate's eyes looked blackened, but his expression seemed ordinary.

"Are you okay?" The man asked her instead.

The woman nodded her head in amazement. At that time, he only realized the existence of Marcus who was behind Nate.

"Mr Marcus. You're here too?"

"Good night, Miss Alina."

The man in front of him slightly pulled Lin to get closer to him again. He did not want the woman to be hit again by people passing behind him.

Their positions were very close, making their chests touch each other.

Slightly lowered his head, Nate again asked in Lin's ear, "What are you doing here?"

The woman looked at her friend who was drunk.

"I'm going to pick up my friend. One of the bartenders called me earlier."

Relieved that Lin had not accidentally come to the club for fun, Nate noticed the girl friend who looked stupefied and unconscious.

To be honest, Nate was completely unable to come into contact with a human woman. I don't know why their body odor makes them feel nauseous.

Looking at his assistant, he asked her for help.

"Marc, can you help him?"

Knowing the condition of his superior, Marcus immediately stepped forward.

"Do you need my help, Miss?"

"Actually, yeah. Can you help me get him to the car? I'd be very grateful."

Hearing him, Nate held both arms over Lin, asking her to look at him.

"You brought your own car here?"

"Yes." Yeah."

The man looked back at Marcus. "Marc, I'll take Lin first to his house. Later, you can follow me to Lin's house."

Lin frowned hearing Nate's words. "What's? No, it's not, Nate. I-"

"Don't argue with Lin. It's already night. Let me drive you in your car."

Knowing that the man did not want to be denied, Lin finally nodded his head resignedly.

"All right."

"Marc, please help him."

After that, Marcus was seen carrying Lucy and the four men tried their hardest to get out of the club, which was getting more crowded.

Arriving at the parking lot, Marcus helps his friend Lin to get into the woman's car.

As Lin was arranging Lucy's position in the back seat, she noticed the two men slightly away and conversed for a while.

"Are you sure, sir? I can follow and pick you up right there."

"Don't you, Marc. This is my chance to get closer to her."

Hesitating, the cold man reminded Nate. "But what about-"

"I think I've had enough control over myself, Marc. You saw it for yourself, I can hug it." Nate smiled broadly at his assistant.

Looking at the expression of his overjoyed superior, Marcus paused to ask again.

"Alright, Sir. But I'll still pick you up before morning comes."

Patting his assistant's shoulder slowly, Nate smiled back. "Thank you, Marc."

Before long, Lin noticed that Nate was seen approaching him while Marcus was walking in the opposite direction.

"Where is Marcus going?" Ask the woman.

"He'll be home for a while. I'll take you."

Closing his eyes, Lin looked at the man. "You sure?"

"Why indeed?"

"It's okay, just my little car. Your body is so big."

"Come on. Let's go take a look."

They spent a few minutes arranging the steering wheel to match Nate's height.

Although it was not very comfortable, but at least the man would still be able to drive Lin's car undisturbed.

Aware of the human passenger behind him, the man opened the driver's window wide enough. Allows it to breathe clean night air freely.

Their journey, which was about 20 minutes, was traversed with silence. Each one is busy with his thoughts.

When the car had stopped in the parking lot of the apartment, Nate also looked at Lucy's body which seemed to be rolled in the back seat.

He completely forgot, that now it was the one who had to help to transport the woman's body into Lin's apartment.

Trying to endure the unpleasant turmoil that had started to appear in her stomach, Nate moved closer to the unconscious woman.

Taking in as much fresh air as possible, Nate finally pulled Lucy's hand and began to lift the woman's body easily in her cradle.

As much as possible, he tries to keep Lucy's body away from him.

It didn't matter at first but when they were already in a closed room, Nate started to feel the effects.

The man's body began to sweat and his hands seemed to shake, as his nose became more sensitive to the smell of Lucy.

"Is it heavy, Nate? I'll help you."

"No need, Lin. But I beg of you to make your way a little faster."

"Eh, why?"

"Hurry up, Lin."

At that time, they were in the hallway of Lin's apartment and Nate looked completely unable to bear to let out his entrails.

Nate's expression, which seemed paler than usual, made Lin speed up. He thought maybe the man felt heavy carrying the body of his friend.

As soon as they arrive, the woman directs Nate to put Lucy in the guest room. The man seemed to throw the woman in his lap slightly onto the bed.

"The bathroom."

The man's face looked sweaty and very pale. The veins of his club until they sprung up on his temples and cheeks.

As soon as Lin pointed at one of the doors, the man directly walked in and slammed the door behind him.

From inside the bathroom, Lin could hear the sound of people spewing out something several times and pitiful groans.

"Nate? You all right?" Slowly Lin knocked on the door.

There was a sound of running water and soon the bathroom door opened, revealing Nate's messy face and wet with water.

"Nate! What's going on?"

The man simply shook his head and dropped himself on the sofa limply.

When he smelled the smell that was still attached to his shirt, the man hastily opened the sweater he was wearing and threw it carelessly.

"Nate? You why?"

Worried about the man's condition, Lin held his shoulders open and was shocked that the man was sweating so much. The body feels cold too.

"Nate? You sick?"

The man lowered his head on Lin's chest and smelled his scent greedily. He wrapped his hands around the woman's waist tightly.

Confused by this situation, Lin could only hug back Nate who looked curled up in his arms. Anything with this guy?
