The atmosphere shifted as Caius stepped closer, closing the distance between them. His height and commanding presence exuded an air of authority, elevating his natural power and prowess. Forgiveness was one thing, but disrespect —especially toward his love, Kouichi— was another matter entirely. Caius transformed from a calm, understanding brother into a stern and resolute King defending his Queen.
Caius (firmly): With that being said, it’s true that you were indeed rude to Kouichi in public. You need to come and properly apologize to him sometime.
Linus averted his gaze, sheepish and possibly embarrassed at being called out so directly. He rubbed the back of his neck, caught in his act.
Linus (sighing): …You always see right through me, Caius.
He glanced up, offering an apologetic smile.
Linus: Okay. I’ll apologize to him then, after the Bridal Quiz is done.
Caius nodded firmly, accepting the response. The tension between them eased, leaving a sense of calm. Sensing the shift, Linus decided to bridge the gap further, taking the chance to mend their relationship by changing the subject.
Linus: So, since you’re on the castle gate side… are you going out again?
Caius: Yeah. I’m going to Julg’s place.

your mind is asking for my love and you just need to hear it...
