Chapter 21 - The Promise to Protect

That night, after the terrifying incident, Vixen Sature held Kin Ouren close as they lay in bed. He didn't let go even once, wanting to ensure Kin wouldn't be troubled again.

By morning, like always, Vixen left a handwritten note beside Kin and left quietly for his duties.

But that day, Vixen didn't teach the children of the village. Instead, he went alone to the cliffside—the very place he and Kin once visited in a past life—and sat quietly. Thoughts of the previous night's horrors kept echoing in his mind. His face held a tension, a silent concern for Kin's safety and soul.

Back in the village house, Shen Seizan turned to Kin and said, "My friend, I have to return to the city for work again. Will you come with me?"

Kin smiled gently and replied, "No, Shen. My husband is here. I can't leave him. I won't go anywhere without him."

Shen Seizan looked at him with soft eyes. "Alright, at least give me your boyfriend's military camp address. I need to have a word with him—it's important."

Kin nodded and called Kenny over to his room. "Little Kenny," he said sweetly, "you're going to Brother Vixen's camp, right? Could you take Brother Shen with you? He wants to meet him."

Kenny happily agreed with a nod.

"Kin has a power," Shen said carefully. "His omega pheromones... they can attract anyone—man or woman, regardless of gender. He doesn't do it intentionally. But this power… it's dangerous if misunderstood."

Vixen remained silent. The words struck deep. Pieces of Kin's strange experiences slowly began to fit together in Vixen's mind.

Shen added, "I've been called back to the city—some emergency at the station. I have to leave. But Kin… he refused to come with me. He wants to stay with you."

He paused and looked at Vixen sincerely.

"Vixen, Kin truly loves you. He came to ZEMURA for you. Please… take care of him. If you can, stay with him—always. That's when he'll be safe."

Vixen's jaw tightened. His eyes, though calm, were filled with a storm of responsibility, love… and a silent vow.
