Cbapter 418


    The moment Nichs ended the call, he turned down the temperature to 60 degrees and hurtled into the bathroom. He stripped himself bare and jumped into a cold shower.


    Nights in the region were cold in May. Nichs was shivering when he came out of the bathroom, wearing nothing but a pair of boxers. He theny in bed like an invalid and let the cool air blow over him.


    Just then, he heard knocksing from the door.


    Nichs touched his forehead. His skin was cool, just like he hoped it would be. Turning off the air conditioner, he mumbled, "Come in. The door''s unlocked."


    When he heard the door opening, he hurriedlyy sprawled on the bed and groaned, "I feel sick and weak and cold. Maybe a hot bath will warm me up. Could you help me to the bathroom?"


    The first thing Wayne saw when he opened the door to Nichs'' room was Wayne writhing in bed in nothing but his boxers. No wonder Bernard had sent him in Hera''s ce. Even he found Nichs'' current state to be rather obscene.


    He reached out to grab Nichs by the arms to hold him upright.


    Nichs finally opened his eyes to take a proper look, hoping to see Hera. However, when he met Wayne''s gaze, both men went still.


    "What the fuck? What''s wrong with you?" Nichs yelled as he rolled off the bed and fell to the floor. "What are you doing here?"


    Wayne scrambled to get off the bed as well and snapped, "Who else did you think woulde in? Mr. Killian said you were unwell and asked me to check on you. You look perfectly fine to me!"


    Nichs swore under his breath. He should have been more careful not to let Bernard screw with his ns again. When he caught the amused look on Wayne''s face, he snapped, "Don''t just stand there gawking! Help me up!"


    Wayne didn''t like Nichs at all, but he gave Nichs a hand anyway on ount of his friendship with Hera.


    Nichs gripped Wayne''s hand and


    hoisted himself up. A sudden thought crossed his mind as his fingers tightened around Wayne''s He blurted, "You have to do m favor now that you''ve seen naked." Content belongs

    Wayne blinked at him. "I don''t owe you anything. I didn''t force you to strip, you know."


    He immediately tried to pull away, but Nichs refused to let go. He might look skinnier than Wayne, but he was strong.


    A terrible foreboding filled Wayne when he noted Nichs'' hesitation and stubborn grip. He jumped and forcefully broke away, putting a healthy distance between them as he regarded Nichs warily.


    Nichs shot him a withering look.

    He snapped, "What are you doing over there? I won''t bite!" He closed the distance between them, but Wayne took a step back, then. another when Nichs stepped forward again.


    Wayne was frightened out of his mind. "Use your words!"


    "Now that Hera has delegated the role ofmander to you, I want you to kick Bernard out of the group tomorrow when you get the chance!" Nichs said.


    Wayne stared at him incredulously. "I-Is that all?"Owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    "What else is there?" Nichs snapped. "What did you think I''d do to you? Did you even hear what I said just now?"


    "Screw you! Get the hell out of my room, you ass!" Nichs seethed.


    Wayne didn''t want to stay with a naked pervert in the room any longer either, but he had felt how cold Nichs'' skin was earlier. He asked worriedly, "Are you sure you''re alright?"
