Homosexuality
Inside the library.
Seraphina gazed at the man sitting in the far corner, hunched over. His thin frame was tapping away on the keyboard in front of a screen filled with an incomprehensible code. Her mentor from three years ago suddenly came to mind-he hadn't changed at all.
A sudden calmness washed over her. "Pierre?"Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
The man paused and turned around. His hair was "Seraphina?"
Seraphina smiled, walking over to embrace him.
mess, unkempt, with stubble lining his jaw. His tired eyes brightened at the sight of Seraphina.
"I didn't give you a heads-up because I knew you'd be here."
Pierre Nunez chuckled. Despite his finely sculpted features, Pierre Nunez never cared about his appearance, and his unkempt look gave him a slightly worn-down air. Yet, when you looked closely, his eyes gleamed with a hawk-like sharpness and determination.
He was a young scholar at Harold University. Pierre was here for research while holding a faculty position, but at first glance, he seemed rather unremarkable. He sat casually, legs spread, and wore a carefree smile on his face.
"I told you, you were my last student. I don't have the energy to mentor anyone else."
Seraphina pulled out a small, delicate box from her bag.
"Tom Ford perfume, the last edition of this series. You've been collecting them, right?"
Pierre's gaze dimmed slightly as he looked at Seraphina, his lips twitching downward in sadness..
"Seraphina, thank you, but he passed away three months ago. I was gathering these items for him, but now he won't have the opportunity to see them."
Seraphina froze for a moment. Pierre and his boyfriend had overcome countless obstacles before finally being together. He had even taken this teaching post for him. Had his love ended so soon?
Pierre smiled softly, taking the small box from her. "It's okay. I'll tell him. He would've been happy."
Seraphina nodded and stammered, "I'm sorry, I-"
"It's fine. By the way, what brings you here?"

"With who? That brave Mr. Dros, you like?"
"The man I loved had died," she said softly.
Pierre knew how deeply she had been obsessed with a man and the struggles she had endured, sinking into that love without realizing it. Every step she had taken forward, every effort she made, was all for him. Pierre knew she would succeed because she deserved all the attention in the world.
But that man had died?
"Oh, that's unfortunate," Pierre sighed. "The man I loved died too."
Seraphina lowered her gaze, falling into silence. He was no longer the person she had once loved the most.
The Orion she had cherished in her heart was long gone.
After all this time, everything has changed. Here she was actually visiting this place with him...
Meanwhile, in the distant castle, the long-dead Orion sneezed loudly. Everyone in the castle went on high alert.
The two stood in quiet contemplation. Suddenly, Pierre lifted his head, and his eyes twinkled.
"Wait, let me introduce you to my first student. He's still single!"
Seraphina's expression remained indifferent. "There's no need."
""He's here!"
So soon?"
Speaking of the devil?
Just as he spoke, Pierre waved excitedly at someone behind her. Seraphina turned around, her expression freezing, her eyes widening in shock. Mr. Rockwell?"
Standing there in a refined suit was none other than Wilson!
When he saw Seraphina, he was just as surprised, though his expression quickly shifted back to his usual composed and calm demeanor. His brows lifted slightly. "Ms. Cross, what are you doing here?"
"You two know each other?" Pierre was even more stunned.
Seraphina and Wilson both nodded.
Pierre couldn't help but shake his head.
"Well, isn't this a fortunate coincidence?"
The two stood there awkwardly cilent for a moment

Seraphina frowned and said, "Don't overthink it. We've worked together on a few business projects."
She wasn't lying.
Pierre suddenly nodded in understanding. He said, "I completely forgot. I only have two students, and both of you are big players in the business world and regulars on the Forbes list. Of course, you'd be connected." Wilson chuckled and asked, "Both of us are your students? Therefore, the other person must be Ms. Cross."
Seraphina was even more surprised, her calm façade nearly slipping.
Just how small is this world?
