Icing on the Cake
“You’re even prettier up close, handsome.”From the moment they first met, Chariot openly flirted with Yuri despite them both being alphas. Watching him act that way, Yuri quickly concluded that the two of them were completely incompatible and that he could never become close to someone like him.“So Yuri was trash after all.”And just as Yuri expected, the moment he accepted the assignment, his relationship with Chariot rapidly deteriorated into the worst possible state.

Left with no other choice, Yuri ends up temporarily protecting him until he can find a new bodyguard.“Wasn’t the whole point that you didn’t even want to touch a bad guy?”“Hating you and touching you are two separate things.”Even though he knows perfectly well that Yuri is a criminal, Chariot begins, at some point, to confuse him with sweet words that are completely different from the attitude he initially displayed.“What do you take me for, Yuri?

And so begins his devoted journey to protect Chariot at all costs. +
