Since the alpha wanted to replicate the life habits of his husband, he naturally moved into the residence where he lived with shou.
Shou was usually busy and seldom went home. During this time, in order to deal with the mess left by his husband’s disappearance over the past three months, he was busy with work. When he found time to return home, it was already two weeks later.
At ten o’clock in the evening, when he returned home a little tired, he saw a man standing in front of the living room’s windowsill. He almost instantly felt that he was having an illusion.
The alpha turned his head when he heard the sound and gave him a pleasant smile.
Shou thought it was a ghost, he immediately thought that it was impossible.
His real husband, after a week of marriage, has never returned to this house before midnight.
Then he realized that a stranger had intruded on his territory, which made him a little uncomfortable.
Although they had been together for three months, he has not had real communication with this alpha. He only needs a tool to complete the task. He doesn’t have a bit of interest in understanding the person wearing the mask of his husband.
Taking the glass of water handed over by the alpha, shou politely thanked him, and then said indifferently, “You can use the things in this house as you like, but you can’t come into my room, and also can’t disturb me at will.
The alpha agreed and complied with it.
His “husband” stayed at home temporarily on the grounds that his injuries had not healed, so shou still couldn’t rest. Every day, he would go out early and would return late.
However, the other person living in the house is not invisible, and from time to time, they will meet at the dining table.
After a week, shou began to feel unbearable.
One morning, instead of going out directly after he finished dressing up, he went to the dining hall.
The alpha was a little surprised to see him, but still served him the ready breakfast and asked him, “Do you have any instructions?”
Although he was respectful when he said this, no matter his tone or demeanor, he subconsciously copied the manner of his husband’s way of talking. Even the pronunciation and pauses were exactly the same.
Shou frowned. “In the future, in private, you don’t have to keep doing this in front of me.”
This will make him feel weird and give birth to the illusion that he shouldn’t have.
The alpha was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, “Okay, I’ll listen to your instructions.”
This smile is not the same as usual. It is not a carefully fabricated arc. It is a look that shou have never seen before. When it appeared with that familiar face, it gave off a completely unfamiliar charm.
It’s not his husband’s, it belongs to another person’s demeanor.
He lowered his eyes, nodded faintly, then got up and left.
The alpha stopped him. “Do you want to leave without eating?”
Shou stopped, glanced at him, and sat back again.
Today’s morning schedule is not tight. He still has time for breakfast.
The taste is not bad, shou thought unexpectedly, after all, his former husband never knew how to cook.
Halfway through eating, he put down his knife and fork and raised his eyes. “Stop staring at me.”
“Sorry.” The alpha, holding his chin, quickly retracted his gaze, then apologetically and sincerely explained, “It’s your appearance that attracts too much attention.”
Shou stood up and left with a blank face.
He kind of regretted the order he just gave now.
