When everyone finally reached Noel's room…
Elda: "Aaron… he looks like him.
Is he your lost brother? 🧐"
Ashley: "Wait— WHAT do you mean by 'lost brother'?? 😶"
Elda: "When Aaron was ten, he had a younger brother.
Only a year younger. They looked a bit similar.
But no one knew— it was a secret."
Ashley: "A secret BROTHER? 😱"
Elda: "One day… the enemies kidnapped him, thinking he was Aaron." 😔
Ashley: "WHAT IN THE DRAMA– 😱"
Noel: "So this is like— the long-lost-brother reveal episode? 😁"
Both Elda & Ashley: "SHUT UP. 😤"
Aaron stared at Noel's room door, then at Noel.
Aaron: "What on earth happened to him? 🙂"
Noel: "Well… uh…"
He explained everything.
Ashley's jaw dropped.
Ashley: "WHAT THE—
If an Omega says no, shouldn't you STOP!?
No means NO!! 😡"
Aaron blinked at her.
Aaron (thinking):
…She's actually not that bad. 😐
Noel: "Yeah… so can I stay with him? I mean, I rescued him, so we're friends now, right? 😁"
Aaron: "No. Ashley will stay with him." 😐
Noel: "HUH?? WHY?
I rescued him! I get friendship rights!"
Aaron: "Noel. You start training tomorrow. Don't forget." 😐
Elda: "We'll take care of whoever assigned Ashley. ☺️"
Ashley: "Then I'll stay with him! ☺️"
Aaron: "Good. You start training tomorrow. That's final." 😐
He walked away.
Noel: "WAIT—
By the way, where's the queen? 😁"
Elda: "She went to meet Aaron's cousin. ☺️"
Noel: "OH— he has a cousin!? 😶"
Flashback
Teacher: "King Aaron is the only male child in his generation." 😐
Noel: (So he was super lonely… 😤)
Teacher: "He was the only Omega child too." 😐
Flashback ends.
Elda: "Yeah. ☺️ She'll be gone for about a week."
Noel: "Hmm… (🧐 Something feels suspicious here.)"
Ashley smirked mischievously.
Ashley: "Oi, Noel. 😏"
Noel: "What? 😎"
Ashley leaned closer.
Ashley: "Looks like you can't escape, dear. 😏"
Noel: "Huh?"
Noel glanced at Ashley, then at Ashley's room.
Noel: "Aren't you Mr. King's mate? 😏"
Ashley: "Yeah? Why? 🤔"
Noel: smirks wider
"Same to you." 😏
Walks away dramatically.
Ashley: "WHAT—!? 😤"
Storms into her room.
Meanwhile Elda watched everything with a small smile.
Elda (thinking):
Why do I feel… lighter?
Like a huge weight just disappeared from my shoulders? 😊
She walked away too.
