" Will you check on it, Oppa?" I asked Hyun-Oppa.

"Of course, I will. When you told us about him yesterday, Appa made sure to look into it. I and Hwan will also make sure to see if there are any connections between that bastard and your stalker." He reassured me and patted my head.

"Thank you, Oppa.." I smiled and gave him a hug.

"Now hurry along, those darn soulmates of yours are waiting at the port of call." He groaned at the thought of my mates.

"Aww, you'll love them someday. After all, even if they weren't my soulmates, Calixto would still be your brother-in-law." I laughed.

My driver arrived so the bodyguard that was assigned to guard me today helped to place my luggage inside the car.

Today was the day that I will be going on my Graduation Trip. After two weeks, we will be in Norway where we will graduate.

As far as I know, Miss Lippe, our headmistress/principal/my older brothers' soulmate is already in Norway. She personally wanted to prepare the whole venue.

My brothers are catching a flight to Norway next week so they'll be able to be with her. The rest of my family will be arriving there two days before our arrival.

After a few hours, I finally arrived at the port of call. The Cruise ship ferry was huge and beautiful. I remember in Miss Samantha's speech she mentions that she calls it her baby.

There were already students going in while having their names listed. I also spotted the guys. They said that they would try to be lowkey so that no one could notice them but great-built men wearing shades, neutral tight colored shirts, and perfect-fitting pants waiting by the ledges isn't the ideal lowkey.

Viktor had his hair tied up in a messy high ponytail. I can see some people thinking twice if it really is the actor, and yes he is.

"E-Excuse me sir, but are you Viktor?" The woman asked.

"No I am not but many have said that I look like him." He gave a business smile.

The woman blushed and asked if she could get a photo but he politely declined, he was on his phone then I felt my phone vibrate.

I turned it on to see his text asking if I was arriving soon and to be careful.

Soren was standing up with one of his hands in his pocket and the other was holding his phone as he talks to someone on his cell.

I don't think they notice that I'm right behind them but he was asking if I was ok and how come it was taking me long to arrive. If I needed help or is there anything he could do to help me.

Devereux was surrounded by women, I felt kinda bad for him.

"Can I have your number??" One of the girls asks.

"I'm sorry, I don't have a phone." He said with a smile.

"It's right there silly." She laughed, pointing at his pocket.

He took his phone and even I thought he was going to give them his number but then he took out the memory card then proceeded to throw his phone into the water.

"Oops, sorry. Now I don't have a phone." He shrugged and walked away. Then he pulled out a second phone and inserted the memory card.

I was shocked to see that his lock screen was me and I have to say that's gotta be the most unflattering photo of me in the world.

Revere was emitting a very non-welcoming aura and his whole demeanor was the definition of intimidating. He was staring at the entrance where the cars come in with his legs crossed. The shades were adding to his oppressive aura but the Stitch plushie he was holding was making people turn their heads at him by the contrast of things.

"Is she here yet?" He asked Alicai who was sitting beside him.

"The guard said that they have arrived but I don't see her anywhere." Alicai worried as his eyes traveled the whole perimeter, searching for our car. We used the back entrance.

Alicai's definition of lowkey is a face mask.

...I think he's watching too many K-Dramas.

"Yes? Then is her room prepared?" Calixto asked through a phone call.

"How about her food? Clothes? Extra Clothes? Essentials? Bathroom? Security?" He kept on asking the other person on the phone.

"Pfft-" Ah, oops.

They turned around and I just so happened to be right behind Devereux.

"Aera!"

"Hi~" I waved.

"When did you arrive? we didn't see you." Revere wondered and lifted me down to the lower ground as I was on the upper ledge.

"I arrived since people have been asking Viktor if he was an actor or not." I smiled.

"For a while then." Viktor chuckled.

"I'm waiting for the line to get shorter, I don't want to butt in." I shrugged.

" Do you have everything you need?" Alicai asked.

"I do for the most part, plus if I do leave something, it's not like Calixto didn't already prepare a month's worth of the things I need inside the ship."

"True," Calixto affirmed.

"Do you feel any pain in your legs?" Soren asked, worried.

"Absolutely nothing," I said.

"..Do you have your phone chargers?" Devereux asked.

"Of course I do."

"Pepper spray?" He asked again.

"Yes."

"Small knife?"

"Uh-huh."

"Metal Baton?"

"I have everything you gave me, Reux. The Bracelet that turns into a weapon, the necklace knife, and the ring dagger." I sighed.

"Aww, you have all of it with you?" He says while his eyes sparkled. I hugged him and took out the necklace, he smiled brightly afterward.

We talked for a few minutes before I heard one of my professors call out my name.

"Well, I have to go now.'

They suddenly looked sullen, "Why are you guys acting like I'll be gone for a month?! Geeze, it's just for two weeks. It's not like you won't see me after this." I laughed.

"Don't say that!" Viktor whined.

"Alright, alright, I won't..but I still have to go."

"Enjoy your trip, Aera. We love you." Revere said with a sincere smile and kissed the top of my head.

I blushed as I was completely caught off guard. I didn't hate it though, in fact, it was the opposite.

"M-mn." I nodded my head and scurried away.

. . .

While walking inside the Cruise ship, Aera bumped into the red-headed woman again.

"Ah, Good morning miss." She greeted her with a smile.

The woman wore much more sophisticated clothes and sent her a half smile before disappearing.

'Huh, I thought she was a janitress..maybe they look alike?'

"You made it! I thought it was gonna take you forever!" Charm hooted with her arms wide open.

"Did you know that there are five celebrities with us on this cruise ship? I heard it was Cole Martin, Lykos Stoll, Reed Davis, Torrin Wilson, and Kassandra Peters." Lorelei gushed.

"Oh? what are they doing in here?" Aera asked.

"I heard the organizers invited them to throw speeches and be guest speakers for our graduation. Kassandra Peters and Cole Martin were graduates of our university."

"Oh..cool, I guess."

"Come on, there are free high-class lobsters over there!" Charm then dragged Aera.

Lorelei and Archer kept up from behind as they knew they were the foodie of the group.

"Is there something wrong, Devereux? " Soren asked him.

" N-Nothing..I thought I saw someone.." He responded with his face growing pallid.

" It's just nothing when you are turning pale. What is it??? " Viktor pressed.

" I- I think.. "

" It's fine, Reux. Take your time. " Calixto said.

" I think I just saw..Meredith. "

"...What?" Revere's eyes widened.
