“What are you doing?!”
“What are you doing, Sunbae? This is filthy.”
“I’m cleaning up after my brother. I have to clear this before the teacher comes.”
“Move. I’ll do it.”
“Fine by me.”
I’d be grateful if you did. Jeong-min quickly stepped aside.
Kim Ju-hwan picked up the condoms and various traces of sexual intercourse from the floor, wrapped them tightly in tissues, and put them in the trash can. When Ju-hwan returned, Jeong-min was surprised. He was a year younger… was it because he was an Alpha? His physique was quite impressive. With moderate muscle, protruding veins, and nicely tanned skin, he looked like someone Omegas would love.
Furthermore, Kim Ju-hwan was currently the Vice President of the Student Council. He should have been the President, but he had strongly declined, saying he wanted to focus on his studies, and the school had requested he at least be the Vice President, which he had reluctantly accepted. What an arrogant jerk. Is this what it’s like to be an Extreme Alpha?
Jeong-min sighed and handed Ju-hwan the clothes hanging on the chair next to the bed.
“Hurry up and put these on.”
“…Aren’t you being too nice to the guy who was just rolling around with your brother?”
Ju-hwan smirked as he took the clothes and spoke.
“I know Young-min seduced you.”
“Hmm. But we didn’t go all the way.”
Why is he even mentioning that? I don’t want to know.
“Is that so? Got it. Then I’m leaving.”
There was nothing more to say, and he felt that anything he said would just end up being an insult to his brother. Even so, he didn’t want to insult his own blood to a stranger.
As Jeong-min tried to leave the infirmary, he was pulled back by the neck again, causing him to stagger and fall backward. Fortunately, he landed stably, and it didn’t take long to realize that he had landed in Ju-hwan’s arms.
Jeong-min looked up at Ju-hwan’s face and felt angry.
“What on earth are you doing?!”
“Sunbae… you were with Shin-woo Sunbae earlier.”
“What?”
To ask ‘When?’ would be strange since he had been with Shin-woo hyung until just now, so Jeong-min could only picture question marks in his head.
“And?”
At Jeong-min’s retort, Ju-hwan tilted his head slightly.
“What does that have to do with you? I was in the classroom with Shin-woo hyung, so what? Is something wrong?”
“Ha.”
Kim Ju-hwan clicked his tongue. How could someone so young click their tongue with so much emotion?
“Now move, please? Otherwise, I’ll kick you.”
Despite the warning, Kim Ju-hwan did not move. Instead, he lightly brushed Jeong-min’s cheek with his other hand.
“Ow.”
It stung. He seemed to have touched the scratch from the ladder. Unlike Shin-woo’s tender touch, this touch was ice-cold.
“Are you hurt?”
“Mind your own business.”
“Stay still for a moment.”
Jeong-min tried to push him away to escape Ju-hwan’s arms, but his strength was no ordinary feat.
‘Does this bastard only care about eating and making his body solid? What an arrogant prick.’
After letting go of Jeong-min, Ju-hwan stood up, rummaged through the infirmary refrigerator, and brought back ice wrapped in a towel. Then, he pulled the attempting-to-flee Jeong-min back, sat him on the bed, and pressed the towel against his scratched, swollen cheek.
Jeong-min winced at the coldness.
“It’s just a scratch, why are you…”
“It’s swollen. Just bear with it for a bit.”
“I’ll do it. Give it to me.”
“I refuse.”
Ha, fine, do whatever you want. It’s your arm that’ll get tired, not mine. Just stay like that.
Jeong-min was too tired to deal with Ju-hwan anymore, so he just left him be. After that, neither of them said a word.
After a few minutes of a quiet yet strange atmosphere, a drop of water from the melting ice in the towel fell and ran down Jeong-min’s cheek. Ju-hwan watched this silently.
Another drop fell, and this time it soaked Jeong-min’s white school shirt.
One drop… two drops… as they fell, they eventually revealed his bare skin. Ju-hwan’s gaze gradually moved downward. The nipple, which had been hidden tightly under the shirt, became visible.
“For a while now…”
Ju-hwan spoke. Jeong-min, who had been yawning as if uninterested, looked at Ju-hwan. He set down the ice pack and stroked Jeong-min’s chilled cheek.
“You’ve been releasing pheromones… didn’t you notice?”
“What? How would I notice that? I haven’t even awakened yet. And why are you opening your pheromones to me?”
There are two reasons why an Alpha opens their pheromones.
To warn another Alpha. Or, to seduce an Omega. However, Jeong-min fit neither category.
“I wonder.”
Ju-hwan smiled and stood up from the bed. Feeling a sense of relief, Jeong-min secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
“Take this.”
This time, Ju-hwan took out some ointment and threw it, and Jeong-min caught it. As he stared blankly at the ointment in his hand, Kim Ju-hwan sneered, asking if he couldn’t even apply that himself, so Jeong-min quickly squeezed some out, applied it, and placed it on the nurse’s desk.
“Hey, Kim Ju-hwan. Young-min called you an impotent piece of shit when he came out. Was that you?”
“Haha. Yes.”
“…You don’t possibly…”
As Jeong-min’s eyes were about to turn pitying, Ju-hwan raised both hands and told him to calm down.
“It stands up just fine. It’s perfect. Do you want me to show you right now?”
“No!”
Jeong-min withdrew his eyes of pity and answered firmly.
“That’s a shame.”
“Forget it, then why did Young-min say that?”
“Young-min Sunbae asked me to knot him.”
“Knotting?”
“Yes. But I don’t do knotting. Because I’m an Extreme Alpha, even an Omega who isn’t in heat can get pregnant if I knot. I don’t want to be tied down already. Especially since Young-min Sunbae isn’t my type.”
He should have been angry because he insulted his brother, but instead, he felt himself shrinking.
“Ah… I’m sorry.”
“I don’t think this is something you need to apologize for, Sunbae…”
“No… still… uh… I’m sorry.”
Since he had nothing else to say, Jeong-min scratched his head.
“Well, in the end, he’ll probably ask Shin-woo Sunbae to do it. Since he’s been forced into heat because of my pheromones…”
At Ju-hwan’s nonchalant words, Jeong-min snapped upright from the bed. He remembered the sight of the two of them disappearing together and the way Young-min had clung to Shin-woo. That look, as if he had found new prey… A chill ran down Jeong-min’s spine. He left the infirmary without looking back and ran.
Until the sound of Jeong-min’s urgent footsteps faded away, Ju-hwan calmly buttoned his shirt.
Then, putting on the wristwatch that had been on the teacher’s desk, he confirmed that lunch break was almost over.
‘Ah… Kim Ju-hwan… I love your pheromones so much.’
He remembered Young-min’s voice whispering in his ear.
‘I’m so turned on… look… slick is coming out… can’t you… put yours in? Please?’
Perhaps because they were twins, their voices were quite similar. Ju-hwan had been aroused by that voice. Young-min had rubbed his hips, feeling Ju-hwan’s hard erection beneath his thigh.
The seductive movement of the waist. The gesture of an Omega to seduce an Alpha. The sweet pheromones of an Omega to excite an Alpha.
Ju-hwan closed his eyes and inhaled. Since they were twins, would their pheromones be similar too? The person Ju-hwan was thinking of had not yet awakened. Therefore, he didn’t know what kind of pheromones they had. So instead… he imagined it using his brother’s pheromones.
‘Don’t tease me, put it in. Please? Ju-hwan.’
But he was Young-min, not Jeong-min. Imagination cannot keep up with the expectations of reality. The substitute was the same. Thanks to that, the excitement cooled, and his brother had raged, calling him impotent.
“I felt Yu Shin-woo’s pheromones.”
He knew Yu Shin-woo was outside. But the difference from usual was that he could feel his pheromones on Jeong-min’s body as well. Yu Shin-woo had never once stained Jeong-min with his pheromones. Thinking about that, irritation suddenly surged.
Damn it… there isn’t a drug that turns someone into an Omega yet. Kim Ju-hwan thought that he should at least try to get a drug to accelerate awakening through his father.
He was curious. What kind of Omega would he become?
Yes. Shin Jeong-min. You have to become an Omega. Because I want to see how that haughty face collapses while taking an Alpha’s cock.
I want to see him with a swollen belly, carrying a child. It would be best if it were my child. He despises me so openly on his face; I wonder how much he would hate it if he carried my child.
Ju-hwan chuckled.
Ah… wishing this tedious day would end quickly, and that the remaining year would pass by soon, Ju-hwan left the infirmary.
✽✽✽
It was raining when he left school. Since he didn’t have an umbrella, he got completely soaked, but Jeong-min didn’t care about the rain.
The path from opening the front gate to the entrance felt longer than usual.
Today was a day when the housekeeper came late in the afternoon, and since his mother was at an exhibition, the house was empty. When Jeong-min hurriedly opened the front door, he saw Shin-woo and Young-min’s shoes. He kicked off his shoes haphazardly and headed up to the second floor, rainwater dripping from his clothes.
Young-min’s room, located in the farthest corner.
The door was tightly shut.
Jeong-min’s heart pounded. Even as he approached, he couldn’t hear any sound. He felt relieved that there was truly no sound.
However, he couldn’t call out their names. Perhaps it was a final warning from his instincts, but Jeong-min ignored it and grabbed the doorknob.
Along with a loud crash of thunder, he opened the door and quietly looked inside.
