Nicolae incessantly sighed as he checked himself in the mirror. He only had two pairs of jeans that weren't ripped jeans and one formal suit, so it was actually not that difficult to choose what to wear for this lunch date. Just take the suit and one of his jeans, and he was done.
It's just that... he hadn't been dating for a long time. Last year, he still went out on dates with Aleksis, but their relationship was already so close that he didn't need to dress up and deliberately wore formal attire. He knew Aleksis liked him the way he was.
Ugh... Cold sweat trickled down Nicolae's forehead as he thought about Aleksis.
He must forget the woman he loved because Aleksis was Alaric's wife, his biological brother's wife.
Even Altair and Vega understood that Nicolae had to find another woman to anchor his heart so he could forget their mother.
If you also read my new novel "Finding Stardust", you will see the reference to 'Goose' too :). Yep, the two novels share the same universe.
