There was a strange commotion in the mansion. The men and servants were excited and nervous as they ran towards the windows.

Nora and I who were walking down to the kitchen glanced at each other in confusion.

"What's happening?" Nora asked me.

"I have no idea." I spotted Sami and stopped him, "Hey! What's happening here?"

"You don't know!? The boss and Caesar are having a sparring match in the backyard." He said and ran off.

Nora and I looked at each other even more confused.

A sparring match? Why?

We both went out the back door towards the backyard. I could see the servants and men glued to the big windows from the outside while only a handful of members were there around the backyard.

Two dreamy men came into view as we reached the backyard.

We both stopped as soon as we saw Caesar and Arius.

I could understand why the women in the mansion were so excited.

Arius and Caesar were shirtless and both of them wore sweatpants as they stood on the grass barefooted.

It was then I noticed their full features. It was amazing how they both contrasted each other.

Arius had golden eyes and hair like the sun with pale skin while Caesar had black hair and eyes like the night with fair skin.

Even their sweatpants were contrasting. Arius had a black one while Caesar wore a mustard colored one with black lining.

Both of them were as tall as the other and their bodies were well built and musculine.

The most noticeable part were their tattoos.

They had special tribal tattoos with the same pattern but in different places.

Arius's tattoo was on the right side. It covered his right whole back and right chest extending till his right elbow while Caesar had the exact same pattern, just that it was on the left side of his body.

If you look at them like this, their contrasting traits made them seem like the sun and the night.

Normally the term would be the sun and the moon but here it was the bright shining sun who was backed by the whole night because these two had an inseparable bond even though they were so different.

The tension in the air was thrilling. Both the sparring members were completely focused on each other, their minds and eyes were in unity, only staring at the person in front of them.

Their battle stance resembled kung-fu style. It made me think that maybe they both learned from Huang-fei.

Nora and I, along with all the members were so absorbed in the scene that we forgot about finding a place to sit.

I saw Caesar's foot move slightly, it changed it's angle. I recognized it. He was going to jump push himself ahead and start the fight.

Just the next moment it happened and I saw the distance between them close.

Caesar took out his palm to attack but Arius stepped aside and dodged it. Or that was what everyone thought.

Caesar changed his footing and managed to curve himself, landing a blow in Arius's gut.

I saw him wince but he took advantage of the opening the hit gave him and kicked Caesar's face.

He skid a bit to the opposite side while Arius balanced himself, just as he did, he launched himself to punch Caesar but Caesar bent down to dodge the hit and then kick swiped Arius's legs to make him fall flat on the floor.

Arius did lose his footing but he didn't fall to the ground, he cartwheeled backwards to avoid that but just as he stood on his legs again Caesar was there to land another hit.

Arius managed to barely dodge as he curved his body. I saw Caesar's knuckles graze his cheeks but Arius took advantage of that and hit Caesar's in the gut.

A groan escaped his mouth as he stumbled back but immediately gained his focus.

There was fire in both of their eyes and neither of them wanted to lose.

I now understood why the men were so excited to see this.

Caesar ran towards Arius and jumped way above the ground to land the kick on Arius's neck side but it was blocked when Arius raised his arm to defend himself,though it did have an impact on his arm he managed to push him back.

The next few seconds they had a constant session of throwing, blocking and dodging punches until one hit Arius's chest and he groaned while stumbling neck.

The punch had landed in the centre of his rib cage and it was going to take a few moments for him to recover but Caesar had no plan of giving him that time.

He immediately pushed himself forward to make Arius fall to the ground. Just as he kicked Arius raised his arms to defend his side. This time he didn't let the attack sway him, instead he took the opportunity and grabbed Caesar's ankle to throw him to the ground.

Caesar didn't let that happen, he curved his upper body down and grabbed the grass for support while flipping his legs to escape Arius's grasp.

He succeeded and jumped to grab his rival. Arius got out of the way. Just as Caesar landed on his feet Arius jumped to Kick his side from the back.

His foot landed neatly on Caesar's side and he skid a bit to the opposite side, letting his expression of pain show but Caesar did that on purpose.

He grabbed Arius's foot and pulled him in with a jerk. Immediately after that he slammed him to the ground.

A loud groan left Arius's lips as his head hit the surface of the ground.

Caesar positioned himself on top of Arius, one foot on either side of Arius's stomach. As Arius opened his eyes Caesar crouched down on top of him, grabbing his wrists and pinning them on either side of his head.

The match was over and I finally realized how my heart was pounding in my chest due to the thrill and excitement.

"I won." Caesar whispered and Arius let out an exasperated sigh.

"Fine." His expressions made him look like a little kid who lost the mario kart race.

Nora nudged me and I saw the mischievous expression on her face. I knew what she was thinking.

I was thinking the exact same thing while looking at the duo.

Frankly the scene looked a bit steamy, they both were half naked, sweating and were in a rather romantic position.

From the corner of my eyes I saw that the maids were enjoying the scene too, although they all immediately began to disperse when Ben came. I saw him tell the maids something but of course I couldn't hear it from the outside but still many of them kept coming back to the window for another view.

Caesar stood up while Arius sat there with his legs crossed. Caesar extended his hand down for him to take but Arius decided to act like a little bitch and folded his arms as he pouted.

"I'm not taking it you stubborn stick." I shook my head and chuckled. I'm glad he's feeling a bit better now.

"You're the stubborn one." Caesar shook his arm, "I'm going with you no matter what."

Lee brought in towels for both Caesar and Arius and left to do something else after giving it to them.

Arius finally took his hand and stood up, he then clapped his hands once, "Alright men, back to your posts!"

That was the moment they both finally noticed us.

The moment Arius met my eyes he looked away and began drying himself.

I knew why.

He was embarrassed that he lost.

I snickered and walked up to him. I poked his arm and grinned, "Look who's embarrassed after losing."

"I'm not embarrassed."

"Oh yea? Then why aren't you looking at me?" I poked his gut side, "Huh?" I poked him again, "Huh?!"

It ticked him off, he dropped the towel, turned to me, cupped my cheeks and kissed me.

He kissed me hard and left me flustered, but what really made me turn red was the fact that the entire mansion saw the scene.

All the people who were supposed to be gone froze in their paths and had their eyes glued at us.

I realized at that moment what Arius had actually done.
