DIGAOT Chapter 11

The next morning, at 6 a.m., Su Yun woke up in a firm embrace.

The alpha had one hand resting on Su Yun’s waist, the other gently patting his head.

“Sleep a little longer?” Lu Yuan asked. They had gone to bed late after finishing their evening routine, and since Lu Yuan had taken the day off, they had slept in.

Lu Yuan raised his hand to cover Su Yun’s eyes, blocking the sunlight that was peeking through the curtains.

Half-asleep, Su Yun drifted back into slumber.

Last night, President Lu had turned on the heat for a few minutes, and although it wasn’t long, the summer heat had still made both of them sweat.

After showering, Su Yun had picked up a book he usually read before bed. The sound of running water in the bathroom was distracting, and the words that normally calmed his mind seemed cursed—Su Yun couldn’t focus on a single word.

The orange-scented pheromones filled the room, mingling with the dampness from the bathroom.

Su Yun closed his book, feeling increasingly restless.

He knew that his unusual emotions were likely influenced by Lu Yuan. The temporary mark between them meant that their emotions could affect each other.

In other words, the one who was truly restless and unsettled right now was Lu Yuan.

It wasn’t just restlessness—there was an overwhelming heat, a longing…

Suddenly, Su Yun wanted to run away, to leave this place, to leave the alpha.

He knew how dangerous it could be for an Omega to stay in the same room as an alpha, especially one about to enter his susceptible period, even if they were married and had a temporary mark.

Su Yun admitted that even at this point, he was still uneasy.

Meanwhile, Lu Yuan was standing under the shower, turning the water temperature to the lowest setting.

It was clear that he was already in his susceptible period.

A voice in his mind told him that his Omega was just outside the door, that he could mark him, even completely possess him.

The alpha’s eyes slowly reddened, his muscular arm gripping the door handle, ready to press down. But just as he was about to open the door, Lu Yuan caught sight of the neatly arranged toiletries on the sink.

Those small travel-sized bottles…

Veins stood out on the back of the alpha’s hand as he let go of the door handle with a sigh, retreating back under the cold water.

The water was turned to full blast, the icy drops pelting his heated skin, making him feel like he was caught between fire and ice. One side was boiling with overwhelming urges, while the other clung desperately to the icy remains of his reason.

Half an hour later.

The alpha had fitted himself with a bite guard.

His head lowered, his voice raspy from his susceptible period: “Wife.”

Su Yun could sense the torrent of pheromones coming from Lu Yuan and instinctively wanted to step back.

But Lu Yuan stepped back first, raising both hands in a gesture of non-aggression, standing five meters away from Su Yun: “Wife, I promise, I won’t hurt you.”

Su Yun was a bit stunned, taking in the alpha’s current state. The bite guard was a bit too small, leaving red marks on Lu Yuan’s face. The alpha moved carefully, inching closer to Su Yun. Su Yun could feel a change in the air—the pheromones were no longer aggressive but rather like a warm, soft blanket, gently enveloping him.

Lu Yuan was doing his best to soothe him.

Lu Yuan said, “Please trust me, okay?”

Inexplicably, the unease in Su Yun’s heart was soothed. He nodded and tentatively released some calming pheromones.

The rest of the night passed quietly. Although Lu Yuan was initially in great discomfort, even inching closer to Su Yun’s glands when he held him, the bite guard kept him in check, allowing him only to nuzzle Su Yun’s neck gently.

Lu Yuan’s breath was hot, spilling onto Su Yun’s ear. The metal of the bite guard occasionally brushed against Su Yun’s neck. Although the touch was cool, Su Yun felt a heat that made him shiver involuntarily.

Lu Yuan, thinking he had scared Su Yun, whispered: “Wife, I’m sorry.”

The nearly six-foot-tall alpha didn’t dare move, immediately straightening up and behaving himself, though he still sounded a bit aggrieved: “Wife, I… I’m having a little trouble holding back.”

Lu Yuan: “But I will definitely control myself!”

Lu Yuan: “Wife, don’t be afraid.”

Su Yun responded with a soft “mm.”

As President Lu had promised, he only held Su Yun.

Later in the night, the president got up a few more times to take cold showers. Only after his pheromones had stabilized did he remove the bite guard and use a suppressant, then he leaned in to kiss Su Yun’s lips.

Su Yun was too sleepy to respond and just turned over.

The alpha naturally kicked Su Yun’s blanket to the floor and wrapped him in his own.

And they slept until morning.
