Ren nodded. “I see. I wish you good luck, sir.” The man got up and patted his shoulder, then he left. His
eight bodyguards formed a human wall around him and escorted him away.
Elijah came in looking all excited. “We’re getting a break, sir! A whole month of break! Oh my gosh, I’ve
almost forgotten what freedom smells like.”
Elijah took a deep breath. Even the smell of disinfectant tasted like freedom. Ren was happy as well.
He did need some time to himself. After he confessed to Ruka, he hadn’t had time to be with her, as
work overwhelmed him. And now I can spend a whole month with her.
Richard was in a top secret base at the moment. It had the most advanced tracking system installed,
and his men were elites among the elites. They were also tracking geniuses.
The men were scanning the HD footage, and Trevor noticed something. He paused it and enlarged the
frame. “Sir, his outfit’s changed, but he forgot to change one thing.” He enlarged the frame and showed
the tattoo behind the man’s ear. “He was the sniper.”
The photos they took at the crime scene showed armed enemies. It was dark and chaotic. The
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtenemies were hiding in the shadows, but thanks to the satellite, they managed to get a glimpse of the
enemies. All they had to do was look for details and pinpoint these people’s location.
“Track him down and arrest him,” Richard ordered.
The range was huge, and this mission was important, but everyone did their work quietly and made
reports of their progress. There were about a dozen screens playing security footage here.
Richard was in his usual attire-a dark camouflage outfit. He was emanating a commanding aura at the
moment Patience and an eye for detail were needed for tracking, and his men had these qualities. The
next day came eventually.
Ruka was having lunch with Ren at the hospital. Despite his wounds, he actually had a decent appetite.
“I ordered this for you. You’ll need it to replenish your blood.”
“Pig liver?” His eyes went wide before he refused, “Innards are not my thing.”
Ruka popped one piece of it into his bowl. “Just eat some. It’s good for you. You need meds and food
to heal up, so stop being picky.”
Ren was frowning. It looked like asking him to gulp down a piece of pig liver was even worse than
getting shot.
Ruka bit into one herself. She nodded. “It’s not bad.”
He had to eat it now no matter what. Surprisingly, the hospital’s chef was actually decent. It wasn’t as
bad as he thought.
She kept filling his bowl with food, and Ren stopped being picky just to make sure she wasn’t worried
about him.
Ruka took a food platter over and fed the fruits to him after that.
At this rate, I’m going to gain a few pounds when I’m all healed.
“Here’s a cherry. Works wonders for your blood. Have some more.” She fed a cherry to him.
“Blood aside, I think I need to replenish something else.” He ate the cherry and hinted something else
at her.
She met his gaze and understood what he was talking about. She shook her head and peered at him.
“Stop thinking about that.”

Ren looked at her angrily. How weak does she think I am? “Do you think I can’t get it up?” He narrowed
his eyes while the air was filled with a hint of danger.
It was like if she said yes, he would prove that he could still get it up. Ren was bothered by that
department due to their difference in age. He never had any practice before, but he knew he must be
great in bed.
She stared at the ground and blinked, then she shook her head sheepishly.
Ren took a cherry and asked, “Want a cherry?”
Oh, he’s feeding me. She huddled closer and opened her mouth, but instead of feeding her the cherry,
he pressed his lips against hers. The couple was starting to make out in the ward.
Elijah was in a hurry to see Ren so he could get his vacation form signed. In his excitement, he forgot
to knock on the door. When he came in, the first thing he saw was the kiss. Oh, darn. I did not have to
see that. I’m still single. Don’t break my heart.
He noticed the dangerously threatening look Ren was giving him, and Elijah froze. “Sorry. Carry on.
Sorry.”
Ruka bit her lip and stared at the bed. “No, come in, Elijah.” And then she left.
