(Author’s POV)
"My bracelet, the one from Nora ... it fell off and blew away," Elio muttered and exited the vehicle as he ran after the protective charm.
Dion, too, got out of the car mind linking Elio, ’I will help you find it.’
Elio chased after it for a bit, but when he saw soone was about to step on it, his steps beca hurried as he stopped the person in ti, "Wait~"
The person was startled as he was talking on the phone when Elio yelled. He stepped aside just in ti.
When Elio found his precious charm, gifted by his twin, he crouched down picked it up, dusted the dirty away and sighed in relief, "Thank goddess, I found it." He then apologized to the person he had startled, "I am sorry for earlier. You were just about to step on my bracelet, so had no choice."
The other person blinked rapidly, looking at Elio in a daze, "Uhhh~ ..... it’s~ ..... it’s okay. I didn’t see while walking." Elio gave him a brief, understanding nod and wore his bracelet on the wrist and tightened it, making a boa knot. ’Never letting you fall again.’
Feeling satisfied, he checked out his surroundings and found himself near the lake. As he was about to turn around and walk back, Dion ca running and asked, "Did you find it?"
Elio showed him his wrist and uttered, "Yup, just in ti. Let’s go."
But when they both tried to leave, they saw a multitude of people surging near them. It was nearly ten in the morning and the university campus was buzzing with students. Most class ended at this ti, so there were more people than usual.
When they saw new faces within the main \campus, and as handso as Elio and Dion, inside their university, they were all captivated and entranced by their dazzling looks, everyone got curious about them.
Sure, there were a lot of good-looking and dashing guys in Red Stone, but these two people had subli coliness.
Dion chard all of them with his alluring smile as he spoke, his voice deep and low, "Ladies, can you all please excuse us. We are in a bit of a hurry." His rare golden green hued eyes shined as he said his piece.
Elio, on the other side, was a bit uncomfortable by such closeness.
He tried to maintain distance from others but soone bold and daring from the crowd ca forward and asked him, "I have never seen you both inside the campus before. Are you new here? Students? Which departnt ado you study in? Does any of you guys have a girlfriend? And if not, can I get your contact details?"
"We aren’t not students. If you will please, excuse us," Elio’s voice remained stiff as he tried to depart but the one who asked for his and Dion’s contact info., didn’t let him off, "Ohh~ co on. Don’t be a spoil sport. And, if you aren’t a student, then you must be a faculty mber. So, tell , which departnt do you work for?" she asked again. But Elio only frowned in response.
She then added, "Ohh~ ... don’t be such a stoic person. You look the sa age as . Why don’t you tell your insta ID, if not your number? I know a lot of fun spots in the city. We can play around soti," saying this she winked at Elio, suggestively.
Elio wanted to roll his eyes, he was disgusted at this cheap attempt, ’Do people here doesn’t understand what boundaries are ant for? Although, I don’t want to beat a human but this one is way too pushy,’ Leo comnted feeling irritated.
Elio was about to say sothing harsh to the girl but before that, the driver ca sprinting towards them, bursting through the crowd. He started, "Everyone please make way. They are distinguished guests which ca to visit Chairman Larson."
As soon as the fizgig girl heard the driver’s words, she backed off almost imdiately, her face faltering.
Ninety nine percent of the students enrolled in Red Stone were all from rich and influential families. But none of them were as powerful as Jacob Larson, the Chairman of Red Stone University and the Larson Empire.
If sohow, the word gets to Jacob about this incident, he wouldn’t let her and her family off easily.
Others too, had the sa thought, they retreated. They didn’t want to deal with the aftermath of harmless flirting.
The driver then turned towards Elio and Dion and respectfully said, "Mr. Everests’, the others have reached mansion and waiting for us."
Without another word, both Dion and Elio walked back to the car, settled, as the car took off.
As the car was exiting the lakeside zone, both Elio’s and Dion’s wolf started having a strange yet familiar feeling. It was out of the blue and caught both of them off guard.
Leo and Drey felt giddy and excited for so unknown reason. As if their deep desires were about to get fulfilled.
Elio squinted his eyes, clamped his fists tightly as he inquired, ’Leo, what’s happening to us? Why are you purring and stimulated?’
’I don’t know why it is happening, but, just now, I felt a euphoric sensation. My heart is racing because of it,’ Leo answered truthfully.
’Ecstasy? But why?’ Elio mumbled to himself.
Drey remarked to Dion, ’I felt a familiar presence just a second ago, Di.’
’Presence? Whose presence?’ Dion questioned.
’I cannot precisely say who, it was very faint. But it was familiar and exhilarating. The pheromones around us were way to high to pin point anyone,’ Drey muttered in frustration.
’It must be soone we have co across before. Don’t mind, we have an important task to fulfill. Let’s just focus on that,’ Dion replied.
There car reached at the Larson mansion. As they exited the vehicle, Alaric and Brave were standing alongside Elisa and soone they haven’t seen before. The person looked of high authority, dressed up in a dark burgundy three piece suit, pairing it with a crisp ivory shirt and jet black tie.
Brave was quick to ask them, "What took you both so long?"
"Ahhh~ ...... the string fell off from my wrist and flew away. We were searching for it," Elio answered. He tapped his wrist to let him and Alaric know that he has already got it.
Though the string wasn’t visible from underneath the sleeves but the crescent shaped charm which was dangling from it was peeking a little bit.
Elisa’s eyes flickered for a nanosecond when she saw it. She bit her lips tightly but didn’t say anything.
"You must be Mr. Dion and Mr. Everests. I am Fabian Stephens. Pleased to have your acquaintance," Fabian introduced himself with a curt smile as he extended his hand for a formal handshake.
Dion shook his hand followed by Elio, unlike how he declined Elisa’s earlier. After that, all of them made their way inside the ivory castle nad Larson mansion.

"See for yourself. Tell , whether I was just exaggerating, or they are really Greek gods," Yelena shoved her phone’s screen in front of Myra’s face after adjusting the brightness.
The picture wasn’t quite clear as the sunrays were reflecting off of the glass display. And Dion’s and Elio’s faces weren’t properly captured as well, because there were simply too many people in the picture.
Whosoever posted it, had taken the shot from so distance. It was a bit blurry.
"Yel, although, I can’t see anything in the image, but I believe you, okay. The Greek gods have visited our university, blessing us. Happy? Anyways, let’s drop this topic now. Whether they are handso, average or ugly, we aren’t acquainted with them. So, it’s not appropriate to talk about a third person," Myra muttered then steered the topic, "By the way, I want to ask your opinion on sothing?" she started.
"Ummhmm~, go ahead," Yelena murmured, while gazing at her phone’s display. She was captivated by Elio and Dion as she has already seen them in person.
Myra pursed her lips and snapped her fingers to get Yelena’s attention, "Oooo hello, focus, will you?"
Yelena turned the display off and shifted her gaze to Myra, "Speak, you have my full focus now."
"Ohhh~ great, thank you, Ms. Yates, your royal highness. I am truly honored by your magnanimity," Myra replied in a dramatic tone.
"Haha, the pleasure’s mine, subject. Now speak, what do you have to say," Yelena feigned haughtiness.
Myra hesitated a bit, "Umm~ .... I want to try sothing new."
"Sothing new? What do you an by sothing new? No, .... Wait~ wait .... Are you seriously serious~? Are you talking about umm~ umm~? And finally taking action," Yelena words were full of drama as she wriggled both her eyebrows suggestively.
Myra smacked her shoulder playfully, "What are you thinking? By trying sothing new, I was talking about my hair and clothes. You and your gutter head. Why is your mind always going in that direction?"
Yelena mumbled, trying to sound innocent, "I thought you were talking about getting a boyfriend, silly. And getting a bit hanky panky with your own boyfriend isn’t a big deal. You are the one who always reacts severally like this," Yelena said, as she sticked her tongue out.
