Multi-Gene

David frowned deeply as he pondered on the topic.

If he continued to suppress his urge for human blood, there was no saying when the urge would be too much and would suddenly explode just as the werewolf had done.

"How troublesome." David muttered to himself and he washed himself up with and got dressed with the cloth he assumed Red Thorn had placed on the ground for him.

As he exited the room, he noticed the place was oddly silent, a total contrast from how noisy it had being last night.

As soon a David exited the hallway and walked into the bar, he saw a middle aged man in an putting in an apron and cooking at one corner of the bar.

And from the pleasant smell David was perceiving, it smelled like bacon and it seemed really good.

As David was engrossed in the scent, the man seemed to have noticed that someone was staring at him and glanced backwards at David.

"Oh, you are here. Come help with this." The middle aged man flipped the meat on the grill perfectly while he threw a bottle of ingredients to David.

With his improved eyed to hand coordination, there was no way he could miss it.

"You are fvcked." Hazel's voice sounded softly in his mind.

He walked forwards, a bit confused about what's was going on and with what hazel had said but still did as he was told and carefully sprinkle the bottle containing ingredients in it.

"So you are the one who drank five cups of symphony." The man' said as he was doing his stuff.

David paused and then nodded since there was no reason to deny the matter. "Yes, but it was just by a fluke."

The man gazed at David with squinted eyes as he replied. "You are pretty brave."

This should have made David feel a tad bit good about the compliment but David strangely felt weird and the atmosphere seem to be a bit tense.

But he still replied. "Thank you."

There was a moment of silence and just the sizzling sound of the meat sounded out in the entire bar.

David also remained silent for a few minutes and sprinkled the ingredients whenever he was told to do so.

But soon, he got a bit impatient an directly asked. "Where is Red Thorn?"

The old man paused his flipping but then continued as he said with a light snort. "Is that what she told you her name was? "

David was the least bit annoyed. If he couldn't figure out the name Red Thorn was a fake name, he should just go hit his head on a tree and commit suicide.

"Where is she?" David pressed on, still not annoyed by the man's behaviour.

"I sent her on an errand to go grab something from the Market." The middle aged man answered him this time.

David released a sigh of relief he didn't realised he had been holding. Subconsciously, he thought he might have broken her with his beastly behaviour last night but still, he was somewhat disappointed.

And Before he knew it, he had opened his mouth to ask."When is she going to be back."

The middle aged man didn't stop what he was doing and replied. "She won't be back until evening."

With that, the man cleaned his hands with a clean cloth and served two plates of salad mixed with something else and the bacon. It was somewhat of a weird combination.

"Grab that, let's go eat." he said to David and then turned to seat at a table in the bar.

David did as he was told and he grabbed both plates and settled them on the table.

After which he took his swat and started devouring the meal. He was strangely very hungry this morning and before he knew it, he had already eaten the whole plate in just a minute.

Satisfied, David sighed and then hesitated before he said. "Thank you for the meal."

The man raised his head up from his food and he gazed at David indifferently.

"Thank Aneane, she blackmailed me into doing this for you." The middle ages man then ignored David and focused on his food.

David froze for a second before he muttered "So her name is Aneane uhn?"

David's paused for a bit but then decide to ask. "I'm Floyd, and you?"

"Her father."

The atmosphere suddenly froze and David turned stiff as the middle aged man raised his head and he squinted his eyes dangerously at David.

David's eyes twitched and the air between the two turned awkward in that moment.

He blinked his eyes and his mouth automatically opened to give an excuse but he just couldn't find one and in the end, he just said.

"It was the alcohol." his voice was soft and even he himself knew it was a stupid excuse.

The middle aged man gazed at David before he nodded slowly with a raised eye brow.

"Not a valid excuse but still, it really was the alcohol."

David released a breath he didn't know he was holding.

"Her father? Dammit, It was her father all along!" David cursed in his mind.

"Yeah, you're pretty much fvcked right now."

"So you knew about this?" David questioned in his mind.

"Yea, they are 40% identical. It didn't require much processing to connect the dots." Hazel replied.

As David was about to reprimand her, he heard the middle aged man said. "So how was it."

David blinked his eyes twice and hesitated. This wasn't really a topic to talk about with her father listening but he still answered.

"It was a bit blank but I enjoyed every moment of it." David could vaguely remember the whole scene, but he felt refreshed and from the flickers of memories, he couldn't help but reminisce on how great it was.

His voice was filled with confidence as though assuring the middle aged man of his daughter's skill.

The middle aged man whose expressionless face was starting to loosen up froze and he stared blankly at David and then he closed his eyes.

Breathing roughly through his nose. David was once again confused with what was going on with the situation now again.

What else does the man want to hear from me? David couldn't help but be confused.

The middle aged man then opened his eyes and then stared at David with a glint in his eyes before he calmed down. But from his gritted teeth, on could tell he was far from being calm.

"I was talking about the food. How was the food?"

"Oh! The food, you were talking about the food? It was really delicious. " David said after blushing slightly in shame.

"I have to go now, thank you for your hospitality. " With that, David quickly left the bar as he felt that if he stayed any longer, he would involuntarily say something he shouldn't have said.

He hurriedly drew in a deep breath of relief and he turned towards a random road, and then quickly walked through the road until the bar faded from behind him through the crowds of people.

The middle aged man was still seated in his spot and he said in a soft voice to no one at all.

"He isn't as simple as he appears to be." his voice echoes through the large bar and faded with the wind.

But then, a seemingly secret door opened slowly and Aneane slowly walked out. She wasn't putting on the slightest bit of make up this time making her look a bit normal looking but her actions were elegant.

She turned towards her father and said in a soft voice. "I know he isn't simple."

"You know that he is one of them and yet, you slept with him!?" The middle aged man slammed his clenched fist against the table in anger.

"Calm down father. Since I made a promise regarding Symphony, I simply kept to my promises." Aneane smiled at her father as she sat down opposite him, holding his clenched fist with her two small hands.

Her father seemed to have been calmed by her tone and actions but still, he snorted and turned his face away. "Now that there is someone who can take five cups of symphony abs still remain standing, there would surely be others out there. You should tweak the rules."

The man advised her and then stood up from the seat to do his own things. But before he left, his said to her. "People from that world only brings trouble. Let yesterday be the Last of it." With that, he turned to leave.

David stopped after he reached a dirty alley. He then frowned when he saw the area was empty. Totally different from how every street in this place was filled people begging for food or money or kids just playing around in their underwear.

But this place was too quiet. Suddenly, he frowned and he abruptly glanced upwards. A growl that seemed like a threatening act rumbled uncontrollably from his cheat as he spotted two figures gazing at him with slight interest that was hardly any different from indifference.

"So, you are the new wolf in town."
