Chapter 44.2 - Mountaineering

Ludwig quickly got ready, and when he looked back at Iman, he saw that he was looking up at the backs of Mo Han and Luo Fei.

“Get ready,” Ludwig urged.

“Oh.” Iman also took out the rope from the mountaineering bag and fixed it on the cliff. While tying the rope around his waist, he looked back at Ludwig and said, “If I can’t climb up later, can you give me a hand?”

“… Climb by yourself.” Ludwig glanced at him lightly, and climbed up on his own.

Iman had no choice but to follow. However, this time he didn’t intentionally tease the other party, but told the truth. He is only 1.7 meters tall, with relatively short legs, and the support points on the stone wall were quite far away. Like Luo Fei, Ludwig is very tall and can easily climb up. But Iman’s short legs can’t reach it at all.

Although there were many holes in the rock for climbers to put their feet on, Iman still had a hard time climbing.

He was already out of breath after climbing more than ten meters. When he looked up, Ludwig had already climbed more than twenty meters.

Iman was a little unconvinced, struggling to find the next point on the cliff. He finally stepped on a small pit with his left foot, but failed to step on it, and slipped—

“Ahhh!” Iman fell directly, grabbing the rope in a hurry to delay the impact of the fall.

When Ludwig heard the movement, he let go of the rope and fell down quickly almost like a conditioned reflex. He spotted Iman, stretched out his long arms and hugged him around the waist, and then quickly grabbed ahold of the cliff. Holding the big hole on the side stone wall, the other hand grasped the rope tightly, and stabilized the falling body like a sudden brake.

Falling down such a steep stone wall, if someone falls, even if they don’t die, they will lose half their life.

So even though Ludwig didn’t like this omega, as a soldier, he didn’t hesitate to save him at a moment’s notice.

Iman, who was still in shock, turned pale. After a long time, he realized that it was Ludwig who saved him.

The arm around his waist was as hard as an iron hoop, almost breaking his waist. His face was pressed against the alpha’s chest, and he could clearly feel his strong muscles and steady, powerful heartbeat.

Ludwig’s deep and indifferent voice came from next to his ear with a trace of concern: “Are you alright?”

The two hung in the air on the steep stone wall. Ludwig held him with one hand and grabbed the rope with the other.

Iman’s heart beat like a drum suddenly.

The moment just now was extremely dangerous. If Ludwig hadn’t rescued him, his portable mech would have rescued its master immediately – in order to ensure his safety, his father had tailored a smart mech for him when he left home to go to university. He dared to summit the mountain because he knew that his life would never be in danger.

However, being rescued by a mech and being rescued by Ludwig are completely different things.

Staying in Ludwig’s arms, held by the other’s strong arms, meeting those deep eyes, Iman, who has always teased people, was speechless.

He stared blankly at Ludwig’s handsome face, heart beating wildly out of control.

Apart from the stress response after the danger, there is another reason why the heartbeat is so fast is Ludwig.

He found that he seemed to really like this man…

Seeing that the omega in his arms was in a daze, Ludwig couldn’t help but frown, and repeated, “Are you okay?”

Iman’s face finally returned to normal, and he said softly, “I’m okay. Don’t you hate me? Why save me?”

Ludwig said, “I’m a soldier. Of course I’ll save you if you’re in danger.”

Iman laughed, and said, “Your answer is really like you… Anyway, thank you.”

Ludwig’s expression was a little awkward, because he realized that he was hugging the waist of an omega. Iman’s waist is very soft, he can hug him tightly with one arm. And with Iman’s shorter stature, when hugging him like this, Iman’s head is tightly attached to his own chest.

Ludwig’s heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

Iman smiled and said, “I can hear your heartbeat, it seems to be beating faster?”

Ludwig: “…”

Iman continued: “Is it because you haven’t been so close to an omega before? It’s your first time holding an omega like this, and you feel a little embarrassed?”

Ludwig whispered: “If you talk nonsense again, I will let you go.”

Iman shut up immediately.

But he only shut his mouth for three seconds, before he said: “I’m short and have short legs. It’s hard to climb this cliff. Can you take me up?”

Ludwig had a splitting headache: “How do I take you up?”

Iman smiled and said, “Just carry me up like this.”

Ludwig: “…”

He knew he shouldn’t have saved him!

Iman continued: “You’re so strong, and can pull the rope with one hand. Can you lift me up? I will thank you very much.”

Ludwig: “…”

Iman’s warm breath brushed against his chest, causing him to itch. His voice was soft, and his big eyes were full of expectation. He nestled in his arms dependently, hugged his waist with both hands, looked up at himself, and said in a pleading tone, hug me up, okay…

Ludwig suddenly realized that he couldn’t say no.

Hanging on the cliff, the two of them fell into a strange silence that lasted for a few seconds before Ludwig said bravely, “Okay, hold on tightly, don’t fall down again.”

Iman was elated, and immediately wrapped his arms around his waist tightly.

Ludwig began to climb up. The difficulty of climbing with one hand was a bit high, but for military students who successfully passed special training, this distance was not a problem. The cliff in front of him has been climbed by countless mountaineering enthusiasts before, and there are many grasping points. In addition, Iman is very light, and climbing up with an omega was much easier than what Ludwig faced in the school exam.

…

Half an hour later, after finally climbing this section of the cliff, Ludwig let go of Iman.

Behind the cliff is a winding and steep mountain train. Although the trail is extremely dangerous, with a cliff on the other side, it is not a problem if one takes safety measures and walks slowly.

Ludwig was about to move forward, but the next moment, Iman suddenly took out a tissue and stood on tiptoe to help him wipe the sweat off his forehead.

Ludwig immediately took a step back like an electric shock, his ears were slightly red, and he whispered, “What are you doing?”

Iman smiled and said, “You sweat a lot, let me wipe it off for you.”

Ludwig whispered: “No need. Let’s go quickly, Luo Fei and the others have gone a long way.”

Iman looked at his stiff back and raised the corners of his lips slightly.

This alpha is cold and serious on the outside, but very simple on the inside. He even blushes from hugging an omega – what will he do on the bed in the future?

Iman initially flirted with Ludwig because he was handsome and fit his aesthetics. But now, he was really moved by this alpha.

Just now, Ludwig rescued him without hesitation.

Held by Ludwig in one hand on a 100-meter-high cliff, trapped in the firm embrace, he could clearly hear the other party’s heartbeat.

Although Iman has hung out with many alphas since he was a child, he has never felt this kind of heartbeat.

Yearning to hold on and never go, wanting to lean on the other person’s generous chest, desiring to hold hands, hug, kiss, and even sleep…

He wished he could throw Ludwig down immediately, and let this cold and serious alpha frantically hug him, possess him, and mark him.

This is probably liking?

However, the average omega is more reserved when they like an alpha, and will shy away when touched.

Iman is passionate and straightforward. Since he likes the other party, he naturally wants the other party to completely mark him so they’re the only one for each other.

After walking more than ten meters away, Ludwig found that the omega hadn’t followed.

Although he didn’t want to pay attention to him, as a soldier, Ludwig still couldn’t leave him alone.

Ludwig would feel sorry if the idiot fell, bumped, and got hurt again.

So, Ludwig stopped in his tracks, turned his head to look at Iman, frowned and said, “Are you still coming? What are you thinking?”

Iman smiled: “I was thinking, you saved me just now, should I promise you with my body?”

Ludwig: “…No need.”

Why on earth did he save this cheeky omega?

The original author’s mini-theatre:

Ludwig: What if you get stuck on a cheeky omega?

Mo Han: What if you get stuck on by a cheeky alpha?

You two can share your experience with each other o(*￣︶￣*)o

The results of Mo Han & Luo Fei’s competition coming up in the next chapter~
