Swoosh—

After calling on Jesus five times, whom I didn’t even believe in, and muttering “I’m insane” seven times, I heard the sound of water running.

Someone was in the semi-transparent bathroom, taking a shower. It had to be Taeshin.

Muttering my eighth “I’m insane” as I saw Taeshin in the bathroom, I quickly rolled off the bed at the buzzing vibration from under it.

The vibration was coming from the jacket I wore yesterday.

When I pulled out my phone from the pocket, it was my mom calling.

“Hello?”

“Moon Sunwoo, where are you?”

“Me? I’m at… Taeshin’s place.”

“Are you lying again? I checked, and you’re not there. Taeshin’s mom thinks you and Taeshin stayed at our house.”

“Uh, well…”

“Are you at a PC bang again? Get back here now! You’ve been missing for days without even answering your phone!”

Days? Alarmed, I checked the date and, oh my god.

Three days had passed since my third brother’s engagement party.

I’m screwed…

“Alright, I’m coming. Please don’t hit me!”

“Be home by 30 minutes. If not, you’ll get twice the beating.”

My spine tingled at my mom’s ominous warning about being late. As soon as the call ended, I hurriedly picked up my clothes.

My legs were so weak I could barely walk.

Though my body was dry, indicating that someone had washed me while I was unconscious, it still ached all over, especially in places I was too embarrassed to mention.

It felt as if something was still inside me.

Momentarily panicking, I decided to extinguish the immediate fire first. I only wanted to escape before Taeshin came out.

I’m insane. Insane, Moon Sunwoo.

Without bothering to button my shirt, I stuffed my arms into my jacket, stepped into my shoes, and dashed out.

As soon as I got into the elevator and saw myself in the mirror, I looked a mess.

My shirt was hanging open, my jacket and pants were wrinkled, and my hair was a bird’s nest. I looked worse than a homeless person.

“Ugh.”

Standing was so exhausting that I nearly collapsed. My back ached, and my legs felt weak. It wasn’t just that.

When I got off the elevator and started walking unsteadily, something was leaking out… from inside me.

“Ah!”

I stopped dead in my tracks, inhaling sharply. Oh no…

I realized what was trying to come out from inside, and my vision went white.

The lobby manager approached me as I stood there trembling.

“Are you alright, sir?”

“I’m fine. Just, a taxi, please.”

Barely managing to pull myself together, I arrived home over 40 minutes later.

True to her word about doubling the punishment, my mom beat me all over with her palms.

Every strike landed on my already aching body, making me feel like dying.

My mom scolded me for going to a PC bang without saying anything, not answering my phone, and staying out overnight.

“Were you at the PC bang with Taeshin the whole time?”

“Ugh, yeah.”

My second brother, who was in the living room, asked as I barely escaped my mom’s wrath, rubbing my beaten back.

I nodded vaguely, having no energy to explain.

Normally, he would have teased me about a ruined date with my boyfriend, but now I was too drained to care.

“Stop whining and go take a shower.”

“Whining? And what’s wrong with me…”

“Your body reeks of Taeshin’s pheromones. My head’s about to explode, so hurry up and wash.”

As I was about to yell at him for calling me a whiner, I froze at his words.

“How old is Taeshin to still be so careless with his pheromones?”

“His pheromones are strong, so what do you expect?”

“What? That jerk!”

Panicking, I clutched my pounding chest and dashed into my room, not even considering that my angry brother might follow.

I threw my clothes off and jumped into the cold water in the bathroom.

The freezing water pouring from the shower snapped me awake, and I scrubbed my body vigorously.

Fearing that Taeshin’s alpha pheromones might linger, I used plenty of body wash, scrubbing twice, then three times before soaking in the bath.

I’m insane. Insane.

I clutched my head, recalling the events I had tried to forget due to my mom’s yelling. Ignoring it wouldn’t make it go away.

A kiss initiated in a drunken haze, a sudden heat cycle, and Taeshin, Taeshin, Taeshin.

It was clear that this was truly madness. The moment Taeshin unleashed his suppressed alpha rut pheromones, consciousness faded away.

My mind went numb, and all that was left were alpha and omega, alpha, omega, and then alpha again. That was all.

“You’ve lost it, gone crazy, you madman…! How could you, with Taeshin…!”

As soon as I submerged myself in the water, the last traces within my body trickled out.

Covering my face with both hands, I sank into the water.

Die, Moon Sunwoo. That was the only answer.

I dropped Taeshin’s untied necktie and, trembling with anticipation, hugged his body tightly.

I could feel the suppression I had maintained with inhibitors during each heat cycle dissolving in response to Taeshin’s alpha pheromones.

Following our instincts, we kissed passionately and discarded our clothes.

The heated kisses, the intense pheromones, and the large hands roaming over my body felt too good. I was going crazy.

Unable to easily unbutton my shirt, I tore it off and pressed our bare skin together, shivering.

Each touch of Taeshin’s hands on my body brought a mix of heat and an indescribable sense of anticipation.

“Mmh, ugh!”

As we sucked each other’s mouths and swallowed saliva, Taeshin, as if unsatisfied, bit my lips, revealing his teeth, and gnawed at my jaw.

His soft lips kissed my jawline, under my ears, and my neck, biting and sucking, tantalizing the feverish skin.

“Ah!”

Taeshin’s hand, which was caressing my shoulder and arm, slid down to my side, sweeping upwards and pressing and rubbing my chest, which was flushed and erect with excitement.

“Ugh!”

My sensitive areolas and nipples, softened and sensitized by the heat cycle, brushed and were squeezed by his fingers, making my back tremble.

Taeshin pressed his weight on my twitching body and hugged me tightly.

“Ugh!”

His lips, which had been tormenting the nape of my neck, moved down and bit my chest, which had been giving me lascivious pleasure with just a touch.

When the sensitive nipple, which trembled with just a rub, was taken into his hot mouth, I felt suffocated, and my vision flashed.

As his rough tongue swirled around the erect nipple and his teeth scraped it, a moan escaped my throat.

“Mmh, Taeshin, Taeshin-ah…”

With one nipple being toyed with in his mouth and the other pinched and rubbed by his hand, my mind spun.

It felt like something was knotting deep in my stomach.

Not enough.

This won’t do.

Shrugging my shoulders, I grabbed Taeshin’s hair, exposing my chest more for him to touch and suck.

I couldn’t tell if I liked it or hated it; I was instinctively moving in response to the stimulation Taeshin gave me.

“Mmh…. Quickly… Quickly, do something… please, do something…”

Frustrated by the unfulfilled tension building inside, I rubbed my hips against the bed sheets.

My pants, still not fully removed, were soaked along with my underwear by the oozing fluids.

“Wait. I’ll give you what you want.”

As I rubbed my bottom against the sheets, desperately craving release, Taeshin firmly held my waist and said decisively.

The pheromones of an alpha in rut emanating from Taeshin heightened my excitement even more.

It was frustratingly unclear who was making whom impatient, but Taeshin’s reprimand made me feel both resentful and desperate for more. I bit my lip and whimpered. Hurry, hurry…

“Don’t cry. It’s not time to cry yet.”

“Ah!”

Taeshin reached out to my tightly bitten lips, pressing them with his thumb to release them, and tapped my butt with his knee.

Just that touch on my tailbone sent a sharp sensation through my body.

It was barely a touch, yet my wet hole tightened and my stomach clenched.

As I hugged Taeshin in surprise, his belt buckle was undone, and his pants zipper was pulled down.

When the damp fluids that had overflowed inside stained my buttocks, I shivered, and Taeshin wrapped his body around mine again.

Smooch-

Taeshin kissed my cheek while holding me in his arms.

He stroked my trembling body with his whole palm, his lips gently brushing against my flushed cheeks.

His lips, which had stayed on my cheek, moved to my lips. The thin skin touched and a tongue slipped between my lips, mingling with mine in familiar kisses.

“Mmph! Mmh!”

As I got lost in the kiss, which made wet sounds, I didn’t realize my pants had been removed and my legs had been spread.

It wasn’t until Taeshin’s hand reached down between my legs that I realized I had spread my legs, aligning our bodies.

“Hng!”

A groan escaped my throat. Taeshin’s fingers, exploring my wetness, parted the slick folds and entered.

There was no pain since my omega body was already prepared to accept an alpha, but the deep sensation I was feeling was a shocking first.
