Ma Jinyan was fortunate to have passed out; if he had heard Rong Shu’s words while conscious, he would have probably spat out blood on the spot.
Shen Huaixiu completely ignored Ma Jinyan’s cries for help and pulled Rong Shu tightly into his embrace.
Chen Jing, who had followed them, looked in shock at the collapsed Ma Jinyan and the sweet, cloying scent of roses that filled the air.
But soon, that rose scent was overwhelmed by a wave of blood, along with the pheromones belonging to another Alpha, completely extinguished.
Rong Shu was in pain, the uncontrollable desire tormenting him, while Shen Huaixiu’s eyes darkened as he held Rong Shu and turned to Chen Jing. “Call the Omega Management Center.”
Before Chen Jing could respond, Shen Huaixiu kicked the unconscious Ma Jinyan out and slammed the bathroom door shut with a bang.
“Is Rong Shu okay?”
Hearing the familiar voice calling for him, Rong Shu rubbed against Shen Huaixiu in discomfort. “I feel awful.”
An Omega forced into a heat phase, without an Alpha’s assistance, could easily experience pheromone chaos.
Shen Huaixiu’s pheromones were stirred up by the little omega in his arms.
Gently lifting Rong Shu’s head, Shen Huaixiu placed a calming kiss on his forehead: “Rong Shu, I want to mark you now. Is that okay?”
“Mm, I want to be marked.”
Having imagined many scenarios for the marking process, Shen Huaixiu never expected that his first marking with Rong Shu would occur under such circumstances. It was far from beautiful; in fact, there was a hint of murderous intent deep within him.
The omega in his arms was soft and fragile. Shen Huaixiu didn’t dare to use too much force to touch him. At that moment, Rong Shu was a precious, delicate item to him.
He pulled down Rong Shu’s collar, exposing the pale, fragile gland. With one arm wrapped around the slender waist of the omega, he braced his other hand against the wall, firmly keeping the soft omega within his grasp.
His sharp canine teeth pierced the gland. Rong Shu felt a sudden rush of coolness amid the burning heat swirling within his body.
The pleasure was so intense it made his scalp tingle; his body instinctively wanted to slide downward but was held firmly in place by the strong arms of the alpha.
“Mm…”
As the alpha’s pheromones entered him, Rong Shu’s groggy mind gradually cleared. His omega nature compelled him to submit to the alpha who was marking him.
The obedient little omega in his arms brought joy to the alpha carrying out the marking. No matter how calm and composed the alpha usually was, during the marking process, he was fierce; the desire to fully possess the other, to merge their bloodlines, overwhelmed his rationality.
Shen Huaixiu restrained himself, releasing his canine teeth and gently licking over the bite mark, soothing his emotions as he held the fainted Rong Shu.
He took off his jacket and covered Rong Shu’s head, then carried him out of the bathroom.
Outside the door stood not only Chen Jing but also Mu Ye and some unfamiliar people who saw the two.
Chen Jing froze for a moment before hurriedly stepping forward: “I’ve already contacted the Omega Management Center. Is Rong Shu okay?”
“Thank you. I’ll take him back. The rest will be handled by someone else,” Shen Huaixiu replied, casting a cold glance at Ma Jinyan, who was still unconscious on the ground.
The car arranged by Shen Huaiqiu was already waiting at the venue’s entrance. Upon seeing the two, the beta driver quickly came over to open the door.
Once inside the car, Rong Shu gradually began to regain consciousness. At the same time, the heat within him surged back, clearly indicating that the estrus triggered by the pheromones was not something a temporary marking could easily suppress.
The car began to fill with a sweet, cloying scent of roses, causing Shen Huaixiu’s eyes to redden. In his arms was the Omega he loved, perfectly in tune with him.
For an Alpha, restraining the instinct to touch him was a task that required immense willpower.
Fortunately, the driver was driving very fast and the hotel arranged was nearby.
Shen Huaiqiu had prepared everything for the two of them; they entered the room directly from the corridor. As he closed the door, the driver spoke up: “Third Young Master, don’t worry, the Second and First Young Masters are on their way.”
“Thank you.” Once the door was closed, Shen Huaixiu could no longer restrain his desire for Rong Shu…
The heat of an Omega’s estrus period usually lasts between 3 to 7 days. In Rong Shu’s special case, it lasted until the seventh day.
During this time, Shen Huaixiu stayed by his side.
In the morning, when Rong Shu woke up, the heat on his body had finally faded and he felt refreshed.
Looking at the Alpha sleeping beside him, Rong Shu felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction.
This person was now completely his.
They had temporarily marked each other, fully marking at the same time.
Although the process differed slightly from what he had envisioned, the outcome was exactly what he wanted.
Leaning over, he planted a kiss on Shen Huaixiu, wanting to get out of bed but accidentally waking the Alpha beside him.
In an instant, he was pulled into a warm embrace: “You’re awake. Still uncomfortable?”
Rong Shu nestled into his embrace: “Is a sore waist considered uncomfortable?”
Shen Huaixiu opened his eyes and met the clear black gaze of the little omega in his arms, realizing Rong Shu had passed his heat period. His relieved heart finally settled as he leaned in to kiss Rong Shu’s forehead: “Want me to give you a massage?”
“No thanks, I can’t take it.” He had eaten too much these past few days and was still overly sensitive; even a slight touch felt unbearable.
He pressed down on the Alpha’s hand: “I want to take a shower.”
“Do you need me to accompany you?”
“No, I can wash by myself.”
Hearing this, Shen Huaixiu chuckled: “Weren’t you always wanting to shower with me? Why the sudden change?”
Even though Shen Huaixiu was teasing him, Rong Shu had no way to refute it. How could he tell Shen Huaixiu that he felt weak in the knees just seeing him?
He really had eaten too much.
Pushing Shen Huaixiu aside, Rong Shu pretended he hadn’t heard anything and dashed into the bathroom.
Shen Huaixiu lifted the blanket and got out of bed, his smile fading.
He picked up the phone on the table: “Second Brother, I’ll handle the rest.”
Shen Huaiqiu quickly replied: “Is Rong Shu okay now?”
Shen Huaixiu: “Yes, I’ll come over in a bit.”
Shen Huaiqiu: “Okay, I’ll wait for you.”
Rong Shu closed the bathroom door and looked at himself in the mirror. With all those marks on his body, even with thick skin, he couldn’t help but blush.
He couldn’t bear to think about these past seven days. Shen Huaixiu could still get out of bed to order food and stretch, while he had spent nearly all of it in bed.
Just thinking about it made him flush.
After finishing his shower, he felt a bit fresher. Seeing Shen Huaixiu getting dressed, Rong Shu asked, “What are you going to do?”
“I ordered lunch. After you eat, I’ll come back to pick you up, okay?”
Not mentioning what he was going to do, Rong Shu looked at him: “Are you going to find Ma Jinyan?”
Shen Huaixiu met his gaze, nodding without hesitation: “Yes. Second Brother has already taken care of things. I’m just going over to wrap things up.”
Rong Shu knew Shen Huaixiu was simplifying it and smiled, nodding: “Then go ahead, don’t be polite.”
Shen Huaixiu patted his cat ears and kissed him before leaving the room.
Shortly after he left, Rong Shu called home.
Knowing the whole situation, his Dad answered the phone with, “Did you have a pleasant first estrus period?”
“Of course I’m happy. Having the Alpha I chose accompany and take care of me the whole time—what could be more beautiful than that? But why isn’t father standing up for me when the Ma family bullies me?”
“What more do you want me to do for you? The one who bullied you has already been taken to court. Once the sentence for harming an Omega is handed down, he’ll have to serve at least 20 years in prison. Do you think that’s the end of it? Your father and I were ready to take action, but the Alpha you chose is too capable. The Ma family’s headquarters is about to announce bankruptcy. Tell me, what else do you need your father to do to feel better? Honestly, I’m still upset myself, so in my spare time these past few days, I took the opportunity to report them while they’re down.”
Rong Shu never expected that during these seven days, Shen Huaixiu would not only accompany him through his estrus but also do so much more. He felt both satisfied and heartbroken.
“I understand, thank you.”
“Hey, I can tell you’re happy; there’s no need to hide it. Your Alpha must be crazy about you. Your father is happy for you too. But have you been using protection these past few days? Complete marking during your estrus can easily lead to pregnancy; you should know that, right?”
What was there to know? In that situation, who could think of so much?
Realizing that he might already be nurturing a baby in his belly, Rong Shu didn’t feel uneasy at all—instead, he was extremely excited.
“Dad, is what you said true? Does that mean I might already have a baby in my belly?”
“…If you weren’t using protection, then there’s more than a 90% chance. Alright, I had already considered that. In a couple of days, bring him back. It seems like the invitation I sent out before needs to be retracted. I’ll discuss with your father about sending a contract invitation instead by the end of the year. Ask Huaixiu if he has any objections; if not, we’ll hold the contract ceremony by the end of the year!”
“Dad, why don’t you ask for my opinion?”
“What opinion could you have? You must be over the moon. Since you might be pregnant, just behave for a while. In a couple of days, take a test, and don’t disturb your Alpha, understood?”
“I got it. I won’t disturb him; I’ll be good.”
“Mm, alright. If anything happens, call me.”
“I understand. Goodbye, Dad.”
After hanging up the phone, Rong Shu reached down to touch his flat stomach, which showed no signs of nurturing a little seed.
He picked up the phone again and sent a message to Chen Jing: “Hey, Xiao Jing, how are you?”
Chen Jing replied quickly: “You’re out of seclusion?”
“Of course, otherwise, how could I message you? You know, I’m actually an Omega.”
Chen Jing: “Now the whole school knows you’re the male Omega of the Rong family. Are you okay?”
That day, when he saw Shen Huaixiu carry Rong Shu out of the restroom, he couldn’t bear to think about what might have happened if Shen Huaixiu hadn’t arrived in time and Rong Shu had really fallen into Ma Jin Yan’s hands.
Fortunately, none of that happened.
“Yeah, I’m doing pretty well, and I might be pregnant. Don’t tell anyone else; I’m only sharing this with you.”
Chen Jing: “…”
You just want me to eat dog food, don’t you?
After sharing his pent-up joy with Chen Jing, Rong Shu felt incredibly happy.
After a moment of gathering his thoughts, Chen Jing said, “Congratulations! May all your wishes come true. Next year, your baby will be calling you Dad!”
“Isn’t that a bit too soon? The baby has to be at least over a year old to call someone that. Next year, they’ll only be a few months old. But maybe my Zai Zai will be exceptionally gifted?”
Chen Jing: “You can say ‘maybe’ all you want, but I’m done with your dog food. Go rest.”
“I’ll talk to you properly when I get back to school.”
Chen Jing: “……Please spare me!!”
