"Reed, I'm the luckiest man in this world."
Reed was stunned when he heard that from his brother, Clarke.
This wasn't what he wanted and planned. He wanted Clarke to wail as he realized that his married life with Gaius was crumbling. He wanted Clarke to suffer an unimaginable level of pain.
He didn't even know why he wanted that so bad. He never hated someone in his life more than he hated Clarke.
Because…
Because Clarke took something away from him, something that should be his in the first place.
Reed clenched his fist. He wanted to just use his power to destroy everything in the vicinity right now. But he knew that Clarke would be immune to any of his attacks. They were brothers, after all.
"A—Ah, I see, it seems that all is well, right?" Reed asked awkwardly.
"Indeed, all is well now," Clarke smiled. "I didn't think that we could mend it. But Gaius' love for me is a lot more than I expected. He truly loves me with all his heart… is this my good karma for being a hero who worked selflessly for the people? Maybe Gaius is a gift sent by heaven to make me happy."
Reed wanted to puke because he thought Clarke was speaking nonsense. But even if it was nonsense, it somehow affected Reed.
Because Reed started thinking that Clarke was rambling about the truth, Gaius was a heaven-sent gift for his good karma because he had been doing good in this world.
But what about Reed?
He was the Master villain, the evilest of them all.
Would that mean he doesn't deserve Gaius because of his bad karma?
Would that mean the villain will always die alone and in pain?
He also wanted his own version of Gaius, the one he could lean on when he was sad, in pain, or just anxious.
He wanted his Gaius.
Or if there was only one Gaius…

Reed glanced at the stacked lunch boxes at the edge of the table. He wanted to eat that again. Of course, he could always ask Gaius to make it for him.
But that meant Gaius made the lunch box out of request, not willingly like Clarke.
"Big brother, I haven't eaten anything for breakfast today. Can I have your lunch box?"
"Ah, this?" Clarke stared at the lunch boxes. He hadn't eaten it because he was still busy with work. He planned to eat both for lunch, though.
He remembered how Gaius woke up in the early morning only to cook for him. It must've been humiliating if he gave it to someone else, even if it was his beloved little brother.
Thus Clarke shook his head and put his hand on top of the stacked lunchboxes, "I'm sorry, Reed. I cannot give you this. Despite our fight, Gaius made this for me, so I know he pours everything, all his feelings here. I will not give it to anyone, even you."
Reed stared at the lunchboxes that he gritted his teeth out of terrible anger.
Reed took a deep breath and fixed his expression because he didn't want this idiot Clarke to realize that his little brother wanted to ruin his life.
"I see, big brother. It's okay, I'll get my own breakfast today," Reed said. He got up from the chair and walked to the door, then Clarke stopped him when he held the door handle.
"Are you sure that you don't want to eat with me? I'll finish my work soon for lunch. We can eat in the nearest restaurant. You can order food from there, while I'll just order a drink because, you know, my dearest wife made lunchboxes for me."
Reed was about to crush this door handle. He didn't know if Clarke was that dumb or he was secretly a genius. Because he could taunt Reed like this. It was like rubbing salt to the injury.
"No need, brother. I have to go somewhere. Have a good day today."
"Reed… are you okay?" Clarke asked to make sure.
"I am okay, now if you'll excuse me…."
Clarke watched Reed, who left his office. That guy always came uninvited and left whenever he liked. But Clarke was a bit worried about Reed.
Because Reed looked lonely from behind, too lonely for a man who shouldn't be worrying about life at all. Clarke knew that his little brother was a lot richer than him. Probably he was secretly the richest man in the country.
Yet that lonely back, as if he was desolate of love, a man deemed to be in pain for his lifetime.
Clarke patted the lunchboxes that Gaius made, and he mumbled, "Glad I have someone that makes me this out of love. I can't imagine being the most powerful and richest man on this planet without finding any love at all…."
**
Reed stormed out of Clarke's office with a tormented heart. He returned to his car and slammed his head on the steering wheel out of frustration, "AAARRGGHHH!"
He didn't feel any pain. Just like Clarke, he was immune to pain. But his heart was hurting to an unimaginable level.
He felt robbed out of his happiness when he saw Clarke look so happy when describing Gaius, "You think you have everything? You think I'm just a pitiful lonely shit who can't get the person I want?!"
"We will see, Clarke Gaist. We will see who will get everything in the end. I will make sure that Reed Ville will come out victorious!"
"And your wife… I will fuck him until he goes crazy! I will make him pregnant with my seed! So there will be no turning back, haha—hahahaha—AHAHAHAHA!"
Reed turned the engine on and pressed the gas. He had only one place to go right now. He wanted to make sure that the idiot wife of his brother would also suffer the same fate because he dared to be loyal to Clarke.
"Heh, as I expected, an idiot husband will also have an idiot wife."
