Erin and Jenkins exchanged a glance, then turned their heads toward Sean with a shared look of curiosity.

Androgynous? Did that mean...?

While they were thinking this, Sean's cold voice came through: "What are you staring at? Keep it up and I'll gouge your eyes out!"

The two immediately felt a chill down their spines and quickly looked away.

That sense of pressure, one they'd known since childhood, clamped down on them, making them uneasy.

When Clownfish said he'd gouge their eyes out, it might have been a threat from someone else, but from him? It was the real deal.

When they were in kindergarten, someone had offended "her", and "she'd" threatened, "I'll knock all your teeth out!"

And that person really had lost all their teeth...

While the other two had turned away, Keira didn't flinch. She kept her gaze fixed on Clownfish's direction.

Surprisingly, Sean didn't snap at her but only sneered. "Aren't you afraid I'll gouge your eyes out, Miss Olsen?"
