His Heart Was Tempted
Aleksis did not understand why Nicolae was very sure that his future wife wouldn't need the immortality potion. She ask, "Why not?"
But Nicolae only scratched his head and refused to reply. He can't believe he couldn't keep his feelings to himself when it came to Aleksis.
Both Lauriel and Terry understood him immediately, but Aleksis, on the other hand, didn't catch the hint and kept talking. "The point is, we don't need to worry. We can fall in love with anyone, including ordinary people, because Uncle Aldebar has the ingredients to make them immortal, like us."
"I understand," Nicolae nodded again. He looked at Terry and was forced to admit that even now they were still equal competitors. At first, he thought he would win from Terry because he was an immortal and Terry was not. Who knew, apparently Terry was also an immortal like himself.
