Chapter 206
This was definitely not a gentle kiss. It was as if he was determined to devour the person in his arms, to chew them up and swallow them whole. From the very start, this kiss had no grace to speak of.
It was filled with the possessiveness of an Alpha, leaving Li Shu no room for respite. Li Shu could only endure it passively.
His breath was taken away, their breaths mingled together, and he didn’t know how much time had passed. Just when Li Shu was about to run out of air, Gu Lin released his lips.
The man’s burning lips moved downwards, lingering at his neck, leaving behind a trail of red marks.
Li Shu was forced to tilt his head back and accept the man’s invasion.
The gland on the back of his neck was sensitive. With reddened eyes, the man explored with his lips and tongue.
“Ah~”
Li Shu let out a comfortable moan from the kiss. An omega’s gland was naturally fragile and sensitive, and now with the Alpha’s scent surrounding his neck, it intoxicated him even more.
Hearing Li Shu’s soft groans, the man’s body reacted uncontrollably, like it was an invitation, driving him mad with desire.
The tip of his tongue repeatedly swept over the back of Li Shu’s neck, causing his body to tremble involuntarily. His skin felt like it was on fire, the sensation spreading throughout his whole body with just a touch.
“Shu Shu, I like you.”
Li Shu’s appearance made the man lose control even further. His lips pressed against Li Shu’s red earlobe, confessing both deeply and ambiguously.
Li Shu had only been dazed for a moment when a sharp pain came from the back of his neck.
A rush of rich pheromones exploded, so sweet and overwhelming that Gu Lin could no longer control himself and injected his pheromones into Li Shu’s gland.
At that moment, all concerns were forgotten. His mind was filled only with the person before him.
…
When Li Shu woke up, it was already the afternoon of the next day. Gu Lin wasn’t there. Just as Li Shu was about to sit up, his whole body ached and he collapsed back onto the bed before even getting up.
“Hiss—”
It had been too wild. It had to be said that Omega bodies had a natural advantage in this regard, perfectly suited to being on the receiving end. The entire process wasn’t painful at all, only an endless wave of pleasure.
It was just the final knotting that had been uncomfortable. The sensation of being filled brought a soul-deep sense of satisfaction. Li Shu knew this was due to this body, but it was undeniable that being held by that man was what truly gave him peace of mind.
His entire body felt limp, his strength not yet recovered. The heat inside him had temporarily subsided, but Li Shu knew this was only the beginning. The heat cycle wouldn’t end so soon.
Where was Gu Lin?
Instinctively, Li Shu began searching for his Alpha. After an Alpha and Omega bond, the Omega would feel very dependent on their Alpha. During this period, the Alpha’s possessiveness over their Omega would also reach its peak. He would never let anyone else near his Omega, nor would he allow his Omega to leave his sight.
Usually, during this time, Alpha and Omega were inseparable, often maintaining physical contact. Li Shu didn’t know if it was due to his physical condition or his emotions, but he missed Gu Lin terribly.
He missed that warm embrace, the feeling of their skin entwined. Just thinking about it, a rush of heat flowed through him. Li Shu hugged the blanket and whimpered, feeling aggrieved by Gu Lin’s sudden disappearance.
Why wasn’t he here? Was he regretting it? Did he not want to care for him anymore…?
These thoughts, which Li Shu would never have cared about while clear-headed, now kept surfacing one by one. His eyes grew warm, and he hugged the blanket tighter.
The blanket still carried the scent of cedar, the smell of Gu Lin’s pheromones. Surrounded by this scent, the deeply insecure Li Shu could finally feel a little at ease.
Just as he was thinking about that person, the door opened. It was Gu Lin who entered, followed by a small robot pushing a cart with some necessities.
Gu Lin certainly didn’t want to leave Li Shu at this time. Heaven knew how much willpower it took for him to pry the person, who was clinging tightly to him, away. He had to go out to take care of some things. Li Shu’s heat had come on so suddenly, and he hadn’t prepared anything. There was no way they could get through the whole heat period safely without supplies.
When Gu Lin saw those eyes filled with grievance, he regretted it immediately. His heart felt like it was being pricked by countless tiny needles. Without thinking much, he closed the door and rushed to the bed, scooping up both Li Shu and the blanket.
“It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have left you at a time like this. Don’t cry.” Gu Lin’s heart ached. He knew full well how fragile an Omega could be during this period, yet he still didn’t stay.
Gentle kisses fell one after another. Li Shu didn’t resist. Surrounded by the familiar Alpha scent, all he felt was comfort. The pheromones, which were terrifying to others, became unusually gentle around Li Shu, enveloping him softly and intertwining with his anxious Omega pheromones, soothing him.
Li Shu calmed down. As he thought back on what had just happened, he felt a bit embarrassed. He buried his face in the blanket, not wanting the Alpha to make fun of him.
Gu Lin wouldn’t dream of teasing him. He was too distressed to even think about other things. He took the nutrient solution from the robot and said softly, “Are you hungry? Eat something.”
During the heat period, an Omega would lose a lot of fluids. It was crucial to keep up their nutrition, so there are nutritional supplements specifically for this special time on the market, as well as some other supplies. So Gu Lin had gone out to get these things earlier.
The items were prepared by his adjutant while Li Shu was asleep. Driven by the Alpha’s overwhelming possessiveness, he didn’t want any other Alphas near this room, so he had the adjutant leave the items elsewhere and went to get them himself.
He thought Li Shu wouldn’t wake up so soon, but who would’ve thought, in just that short while he was gone, Li Shu had woken up.
How heartbroken an Omega must be to wake up and not see their Alpha. No matter how strong Li Shu was, at a time like this, he was fragile and needed to be cared for.
With Gu Lin’s help, Li Shu took small sips of the nutrient solution. He hadn’t eaten since last night, and after such a long time, he was starving.
The nutrient solution didn’t have much taste. It wasn’t exactly good or bad, but it was just for replenishing nutrients, so the flavor was secondary. Besides, who would care about the taste of nutrient solutions at a time like this?
Li Shu certainly didn’t have time to care. The familiar wave of heat washed over him, causing him to struggle slightly, unable to control himself.
The body under the blanket was naked, and during the struggle, the blanket slipped from his shoulders, revealing a large area of skin.
Like all Omegas, Li Shu had skin that was as white and smooth as milk, something the man couldn’t get enough of. At this moment, his exposed skin was covered in red marks, which trailed down and disappeared under the blanket.
Looking at the marks he had left, Gu Lin’s eyes darkened. These marks represented that Li Shu now completely belonged to him. The person he had longed for was finally his.
Lowering his head, new marks quickly replaced the fading ones.
The metal bed couldn’t withstand their movements and began shaking violently. Their pheromones mingled, leaving the room filled with an ambiguous atmosphere, with low gasps and soft moans intertwined…
What happened afterward was a blur. They lost track of day and night, not knowing how much time had passed. Their consciousness left their bodies, leaving only the two of them sinking deeper and deeper into each other.
It wasn’t until seven days later that they fully woke up. The overwhelming scent of pheromones in the room had gradually faded. Gu Lin turned on the air purifier and carried Li Shu to the bathroom to bathe.
Li Shu had no strength left. Forget about resisting, he didn’t even have the energy to stand. The physical difference between an Omega and an Alpha was too great, and he was almost completely immobile.
Gu Lin carefully bathed Li Shu, a task he had become quite proficient at over the past few days.
The hot water soaked his entire body, easing the fatigue of the past few days.
Li Shu narrowed his eyes, his gaze falling into the void, lost in thought.
“Shu Shu…” Gu Lin couldn’t help but call out. This version of Li Shu felt like he was slipping away from him.
“You know?” Li Shu slowly turned his head and asked.
Gu Lin nodded silently.
This wasn’t the right time to discuss it, so Li Shu said no more. Though his memory of the past few days was jumbled, he could still recall the countless times he heard the word “Shu Shu” whispered by his ear.
When they finished tidying up and came out, the intimate scent in the room had completely dissipated. If not for the messy bed still revealing its presence, no one would have been able to tell what had happened here not long ago.
Gu Lin took a towel and began drying Li Shu’s hair. Li Shu’s hair was very soft, slipping through his fingers like silk, and as his hand combed through it, it seemed to tickle his heart, filling him with tenderness.
This person was his now, completely his. No one could take him away, and he wouldn’t give anyone the chance to.
“Thank you for your help these past few days.”
Gu Lin now felt what it felt like to fall into an abyss. Li Shu’s words plunged him straight into that abyss.
“What did you say?” He gritted his teeth, trying to keep his tone from scaring the fragile Omega.
“I said, thank you for helping me these past few days. I won’t…”
“You’re not planning to take responsibility for me?” Gu Lin cut him off before he could finish.
“Responsibility?” Li Shu looked up, confused. He didn’t understand what responsibility he was supposed to take. If anyone was to take responsibility, it certainly wasn’t him.
After bathing, Li Shu had only put on a loose shirt. From his position, Gu Lin could easily see the view under the clothes when he lowered his head.
The fair skin beneath was still marked with the traces he had left. He had explored every inch of that skin with his lips. He would never forget the feeling of that warmth, so intense it made him think this was the moment he would never be able to forget in his life.
He couldn’t help but want more from him, couldn’t help but bury himself deep inside him, couldn’t help but start making plans for their future together. And now, what was he hearing?
Putting down the towel, he wrapped his arms around Li Shu from behind. The slender Omega fit perfectly in his embrace. His arms tightened around Li Shu’s waist, as if afraid that if he loosened his grip, the person would disappear.
Feeling the man’s arms tighten around his waist, Li Shu was about to say something when he felt a wet sensation on his ear, followed by a gentle nibble.
“I don’t accept it, Shu Shu. I don’t accept your apology. I don’t need your apology. What I’ve always wanted has been you!”
“So, I won’t let go. Even if you regret it now, you can only be mine!”
