’This big bad guy that’s stolen my body twice now...’

’He’s flirting with me all the time!’

’I, Naomi Monroe for one, am not falling for it. I’d rather walk all the way home than go back to the villa with you!’

Half an hour later...

Naomi sat quietly in the passenger seat of Luca Hale’s Mercedes-Benz G-Class with her cheeks puffed, as it cruised toward The Elvis Muskov Villa.

Her previous declaration had lasted exactly thirty minutes.

A black shopping bag rested on the rear seat. Inside were her spare clothes... along with two cosplay outfits. A closer look would reveal a pair of fluffy cat ears and a matching cat tail tucked neatly inside.

Naomi turned her face toward the window and shut her eyes, too embarrassed to look at Luca. Her slender fingers unconsciously twisted the hem of her shirt until it was wrinkled beyond recognition.

In the rearview mirror, she caught the unmistakable curve of Luca’s amused smile.

’Pervert.’

She silently grumbled to herself.

’I seriously don’t know where he learns all these ideas.’

’Doesn’t he ever get tired of teasing me?’

What made it even worse was her own mother.

Instead of stopping him, Elena Monroe had enthusiastically bought all sorts of strange outfits without the slightest embarrassment. It was as if she’d completely forgotten she was encouraging her own daughter.

Meanwhile, Luca’s curiosity had only grown over the past few days. Flight attendant uniforms, nurse outfits, catgirl costumes, and plenty of others had quietly arrived one after another.

Tonight was clearly going to be another long one.

...

The next morning, sunlight spilled through the curtains and filled the master bedroom.

Luca slowly opened his eyes before letting out a sleepy yawn.

The room was a mess.

Several pieces of clothing lay scattered across the floor, silent evidence of just how lively the previous night had been.

Beside him, Naomi remained fast asleep.

A peaceful smile rested on her lips as she hugged the pillow, completely unaware that the blanket had slipped slightly, exposing one smooth shoulder.

Luca smiled helplessly.

He gently pulled the blanket back over her before brushing a few loose strands of hair away from her face.

’Let her sleep.’

She had barely gotten any rest the night before.

Moving carefully so he wouldn’t wake her, Luca quietly climbed out of bed and headed downstairs.

...

At exactly ten o’clock that morning, Austin Silva arrived at the villa with Gavin Ross, Dominic Jose, and Ayden Young.

The moment Luca led them into the garage, all four men froze.

Parked beneath the bright overhead lights was the Koenigsegg One:1.

Even though they’d seen pictures countless times, standing in front of the real thing was an entirely different experience.

It looked every bit like a work of art.

Austin walked around it twice before carefully accepting the key Luca tossed over.

For a second, he simply stared at it.

Then he looked back at the car.

His expression was one of pure disbelief.

"Bro Luca..."

He swallowed.

"You’re really trusting me with this?"

Luca laughed.

"I already handed you the key, didn’t I?"

Austin almost felt like kneeling on the spot.

Compared to the Koenigsegg, his own Lamborghini suddenly didn’t seem nearly as exciting.

Sliding into the driver’s seat, he gripped the steering wheel with both hands.

The craftsmanship alone made him grin like a child.

He hadn’t even started the engine yet, and he was already enjoying himself.

"Bro Luca."

Austin looked over.

"Are you seriously not coming with us?"

Luca shook his head without hesitation.

"I’m sitting this one out."

The answer left the four of them puzzled.

Owning one of the world’s rarest hypercars yet having no interest in racing...

It felt almost unbelievable.

Gavin scratched his head.

"Then why buy it?"

Luca smiled.

"You guys go have fun."

He glanced toward the villa.

"I’m staying home to keep your sister-in-law company."

The four exchanged stunned looks.

"You actually have a girlfriend?"

Apart from Austin, the others had never believed the rumors.

Sure, Austin had mentioned it before.

He’d even claimed Luca’s girlfriend was unbelievably beautiful.

None of them had taken him seriously.

Now Luca had admitted it himself.

Everything suddenly made sense.

No wonder he’d shown zero interest in the hostess at The Crimson Velvet Lounge.

The guy wasn’t pretending.

He was genuinely devoted.

Naturally, none of them knew that Luca’s love life was a little more complicated than it appeared.

"Luca~"

A sweet voice drifted down from the second floor.

Everyone instinctively looked up.

Naomi had opened one of the bedroom windows.

Dressed in oversized pajamas, she leaned out slightly before smiling brightly at the visitors.

"Hello."

Her gentle greeting instantly left the four young men speechless.

Austin recovered first.

"Hello, Sister-in-law!"

The other three hurriedly echoed him.

"Hello, Sister-in-law!"

Naomi smiled shyly and waved before disappearing back inside.

Luca looked toward the group.

"Alright."

He waved casually.

"Go enjoy yourselves."

He didn’t even bother reminding them when to return the car.

That level of trust left Austin even more impressed.

Soon afterward, the Koenigsegg rolled out of The Elvis Muskov Villa and disappeared onto the road.

...

Several minutes into the drive, Gavin sat quietly in the passenger seat, frowning.

Austin glanced sideways.

"What are you thinking about?"

Gavin rubbed his chin.

"Doesn’t Luca’s girlfriend look... familiar?"

Although they’d only exchanged greetings, he couldn’t shake the feeling that he’d seen her somewhere before.

Especially her voice.

It kept nagging at the back of his mind.

More importantly...

Someone that beautiful wasn’t the kind of face you forgot easily.

Austin couldn’t help smiling.

"Try thinking about her name."

"My name?"

"No."

Austin laughed.

"Her name."

"Naomi Monroe."

Gavin repeated it absentmindedly.

A few seconds passed.

Then his eyes suddenly widened.

"No way!"

He slapped his thigh so hard that Dominic jumped.

"Bro... Austin!"

"Luca’s girlfriend isn’t..."

"...Little Naomi from Twist Streaming, is she?"

Austin grinned.

"You finally figured it out."

"I knew it!"

Gavin practically shouted.

"No wonder she looked so familiar!"

The famous streamer looked every bit as stunning in real life as she did on camera.

No...

She was even more beautiful in person.

Gavin couldn’t help shaking his head in admiration.

"As expected of Bro Luca."

"Even his girlfriend is a goddess."

Setting fame aside, Naomi’s beauty alone was enough to leave people speechless.

Among all the women Gavin had met, only one or two could compare.

Ayden Young’s sister’s best friend...

The famous campus belle of San Fierro University...

And...

The mysterious woman they were about to meet later that evening.

The woman everyone simply called...

Big Sister.

The image of a red Ferrari flashed through Gavin’s mind.

He instinctively shivered.

For reasons he didn’t care to explain...

That woman was far scarier than any supercar.
