Ulysses felt his heart skip a beat. He was pretty well-known himself, but Julius was on a whole other level-a rising star, someone Ulysses really admired. Heck, Julius was basically a legend, and Ulysses had always looked up to him.

Julius let out a cold laugh. "Well, sorry to break it to you. I'm her third brother, too. Only I don't bully her. She's the kind of girl you want to keep safe, not push around."
