A pair of peach blossom eyes, full of affection, looked at me. He raised an eyebrow, playing it cool. ts, hop in 1) are so 21

It was Jace Wilder. My only friend from the Outcast Pup’s Refuge.

When I was eight, the headmaster of the refuge sold me to a pedophile.

When I was being bullied, Jace, without hesitation, knocked out the pervert and took me away.

To protect me, he hid me. Then he drew away those chasing us.

When I returned to the Outcast Pup’s Refuge with Calista and saw him again, he was covered in blood, dying. Even then, he didn’t tell anne my hiding place.

“Jace, do

you feel particularly handsome right now? I looked at him with an expressionless face.

“Seren, watch your words. What do you mean ‘think? I’ve always been incredibly handsome! It is a fact!” Jace flicked the bangs from his forehead.

I said nothing, gesturing towards him.

Jace lowered his head.

I pressed the back of his head, turning it clockwise towards the rearview mirror and said seriously, “Indeed, it’s incredibly… impressive!” “Holy shit!” Jace looked at himself in the mirror, his hair a mess. He blurted out a swear word, his confidence instantly gone. He quickly put his helmet back on.

It really did affect his image. I couldn’t help but smile.

“Come on, I’ll give you a ride.” Jace said, displeased, bending to help me with my helmet.

His movement paused. He saw the pink pup’s helmet under mine.

Jace’s nose twitched, and his eyes welled up. This was the birthday gift he’d prepared for Aurora.

His training had made him miss her birthday. He couldn’t take time off, so he’d had this helmet custom–made. He planned to go for a ride with Aurora after her surgery. But there would be no more ride.

“Aurora would have been very happy with this gift. I gently patted his shoulder, offering comfort.

Aurora’s death had devastated me. But I wouldn’t allow myself to be lost in sadness forever.

Aurora wouldn’t want to see me like this.
