“I understand, so let’s go home.”
“Ah, okay.”
The gripped hand hurt. On the way home, Suhwan kept glancing sideways at Seunghyun’s tense face.
If he had said he would come pick me up, he’d naturally be upset thinking I had made plans with someone else. Suhwan pondered ways to improve Seunghyun’s mood. But no matter how much he thought, nothing good came to mind.
As he was absorbed in finding a solution, they soon arrived home. His hand was still being held so tightly it hurt. What should I do? How can I make Seunghyun feel better?
Unaware of Suhwan’s inner turmoil, Seunghyun mechanically entered the door lock password. As the door opened with an electronic sound, he turned to Suhwan.
“You go in first.”
“Huh? Okay.”
Suhwan, snapping back to reality, went inside. Then, as he unconsciously started removing his shoes, he staggered.
“Whoa!”
Looking down to see what was wrong, he realized one hand was still firmly in Seunghyun’s grip. He looked awkwardly at the hand holding his and then raised his head.
“Seunghyun, can you let go of my hand?”
Seunghyun was still staring at him with a rigid face. Suhwan was only able to remove his shoes after carefully extracting his hand from Seunghyun’s slightly loosened grip.
“Well, I’m going to change clothes…”
“Hyung.”
“Yes?”
Suhwan, who had been about to hurry to the dressing room, stopped abruptly. He looked at Seunghyun with a puzzled expression. For some reason, Seunghyun’s eyes were intense.
“Do you drink with that person often?”
“That person?”
Suhwan tilted his head at Seunghyun’s question. He wondered who he was talking about, then recalled their conversation with Yunhyun just now. Suhwan carefully asked:
“Do you mean the manager?”
“Yes.”
“Well…”
Suhwan rolled his eyes, trying to recall events from over a month ago. When he had first manifested in this world, Yunhyun had disliked him, so they hadn’t gotten along well. By the time they started to become closer, his internship was almost over. In the end, he had never gone drinking with him.
“No, I’ve never had drinks with the manager. He probably just said that because he was happy to see me after a long time.”
“……”
“It’s true.”
He felt wronged. Did he still look like a good-for-nothing who went drinking every day in Seunghyun’s eyes? Seunghyun had even seen him crying after just a few cans of beer. Even though he knew it couldn’t be helped, Suhwan anxiously bit his lip.
“Really?”
“Yes, really. I didn’t drink with anyone from the company during my internship.”
Seunghyun was still trying to calm his churning emotions. The image of Suhwan in that colleague’s arms kept flashing before his eyes. Even his name sounded irritating. Seunghyun’s face twisted sharply.
“Seunghyun?”
“Ah.”
Only then did Seunghyun notice Suhwan glancing at him nervously. It seemed he had scared Suhwan again by acting intimidating because of that annoying alpha.
This isn’t right. Seunghyun smoothed out his crumpled expression and smiled.
“I’m sorry. I was just worried.”
“Worried?”
“Yes, you seemed close with that person… I was a bit jealous.”
“With the manager? Me?”
Suhwan was shocked by Seunghyun’s words. He hadn’t expected this at all. If Yunhyun had been an omega, he could have understood Seunghyun’s concern, but he was an alpha like himself. He couldn’t imagine an alpha flirting with another alpha. Besides, both he and Yunhyun were the same gender.
“But the manager is an alpha.”
As Suhwan said, it was extremely rare for an alpha to feel sexual attraction toward another alpha. Even among family members, alphas’ pheromones tended to clash. Some people even felt discomfort just being in the same space.
But Suhwan was recessive, so he didn’t sense pheromones well, and his own pheromone scent was sweet, almost like an omega’s. If there were aberrant individuals among alphas like himself, it could be a big problem. And there was no guarantee that this manager wasn’t one of them.
“Even an alpha could like you, hyung.”
“Come on, no way.”
Seeing his bright smile, it seemed Suhwan had no idea how he appeared to others. Seunghyun gazed at him intently before reaching out.
“You don’t seem to know yourself very well.”
“Me?”
“Yes.”
Wearing a formal suit for the first time in a while, Suhwan looked like the perfect alpha in every way. Tall stature, broad shoulders, a solid body. And a masculine, handsome face. He had looks that would catch the eye of not just omegas but betas too.
But people are not just what meets the eye. Seunghyun slowly untied Suhwan’s necktie. The blue necktie, made of good material, fit snugly in Seunghyun’s hand. He dropped the tie to the floor and then removed the jacket. Then he began unbuttoning the white shirt one by one.
“Seunghyun, what are you… mmph.”
Suhwan was surprised when Seunghyun suddenly started undressing him at the entrance. Seunghyun’s touch was so smooth and natural. Unable to stop him, Suhwan just stared blankly as his clothes fell off one by one.
Eventually, Seunghyun’s hands touched bare skin. Peculiarly, he only unbuttoned the middle of the shirt and slipped his hand through the gap to grasp Suhwan’s chest. When the large, cool hand made contact with his bare chest, Suhwan shrunk back.
“Why suddenly… mmm.”
Now his body responded automatically just from having his chest touched. This was because Seunghyun had been persistently touching and licking it. There’s probably nothing more unproductive than touching a man’s chest, especially an alpha’s. But Seunghyun was particularly fixated on the chest, and Suhwan didn’t dislike it either. No, rather, it felt too good to be a problem.
“Look at this. An alpha who enjoys this so much.”
“Ahh.”
“Other guys might also set their sights on you, hyung, this way.”
“That won’t… nngh.”
Seunghyun, who had been rubbing as if giving a massage, pinched and twisted the nipple with his fingertips. Along with the stinging pain came a tingling response in Suhwan’s lower body. Suhwan moaned and his body twitched.
“Would you like it if someone else touched you too?”
“No, I… it’s because it’s you… ah.”
His flushed face and shaking head didn’t seem very convincing. Not even realizing how this would look to others. The fact that he trusted another alpha enough to surrender his body like this was utterly displeasing.
Feeling spiteful, Seunghyun bit down on Suhwan’s chest. The white chest was already mottled with marks left by Seunghyun. He bit the same spot again, leaving a darker mark. A sweet taste filled his mouth.
“Hahh, Seunghyun.”
“…”
“There, it feels good.”
Suhwan now knew how to beg properly. He hugged Seunghyun’s head and pressed his excited body against him with a moan. The way he rubbed his half-erect lower body was quite explicit.
Like this, how could another alpha not be aroused? That was nonsense. Unless they were impotent, of course their eyes would roll back. Clicking his tongue internally, he spat out the small, cute nipple he had been rolling in his mouth and raised his head.
“Don’t get too close to that person.”
“Who? The manager?”
“Yes.”
Suhwan looked at Seunghyun with hazy eyes. Just a little more and he would come, but Seunghyun, who had removed his lips, looked too resolute. He wanted Seunghyun to touch him more quickly. Suhwan hastily nodded.
“I understand, Seunghyun. Hurry.”
“Did you really understand what I said?”
“Mmm, I said I did.”
I won’t get close to the manager.
He whispered, spreading his shirt collar wider. That reddened, swollen area twitched as if tempting Seunghyun.
“So hurry, touch my chest. Hah.”
“Haa, really.”
It was a dizzying, breathtaking sight. At the same time, Seunghyun’s body was aroused by the sweet pheromones that brushed his nose. Seunghyun frowned.
I really need to be more wary of that alpha. Seunghyun muttered inwardly while moving his hands and tongue as Suhwan wanted.
***
But in the end, Suhwan couldn’t keep his promise to Seunghyun. Most of the company employees were avoiding Suhwan, and among them, Yunhyun was the only one he could have a conversation with.
