# Chapter 9
“Yuri… I feel weird. My body won’t move… sob.”
“It’s okay. It’s okay. I’m here.”
“You’re both acting like crazy people…”
I gently stroked Mir’s hair. She was so cute, fitting perfectly in my arms, that I wanted to hold her like a stuffed animal while sleeping. A sweet cherry scent wafted to my nose.
How long had we been like that?
“You really do everything.”
A voice that shouldn’t be heard here was heard. At the same time, the faint cherry scent disappeared and a smell like burning firewood wrapped around my entire body.
Do Jihoon abruptly asked Kim Bojin.
“How did you know?”
Kim Bojin scratched his head and answered.
“Hey. Don’t misunderstand. Yeon Yuri only told me. I didn’t tell anyone either, of course.”
“Why did you call me?”
Do Jihoon was still marking me with his scent. His voice was full of annoyance and displeasure. Suddenly, sadness came over me. Tears welled up and rolled down my cheeks.
“Mir. Listen to me… I’m the most pitiful Omega in the world.”
“Yuri… my body won’t move…”
“I’m a worthless Omega… who’s treated like a package by an Alpha who marks me with his pheromones…”
“The world is spinning…”
Do Jihoon looked at me as if he was looking at the most pathetic person in the world. At that, tears flowed down my cheeks without stopping.
“That’s so mean… how can you do this to me?”
“Stop whining and be quiet.”
“You… you to me…”
“Yuri. I don’t know if you know this, but it’s only been three weeks since we first introduced ourselves.”
I cried my eyes out as if the world was ending. Kim Bojin was holding his phone, filming us. That made me furious. My rose scent pheromones targeted Kim Bojin.
“You jerk… you’re not even a friend…”
At that, Kim Bojin and the surrounding Omegas turned pale.
“Ugh. Hey… I’m going to throw up… reduce your pheromones a bit…”
“Damn… when will the earth break… I can’t even fall in love with my Alpha, I should just go and die…”
I looked at the floor weakly, as if I had given up on everything. My rose scent pheromones grew increasingly stronger.
That’s when it happened.
“Yuri.”
An incredibly gentle voice reached my ears. I sniffled and raised my head to look at Do Jihoon. He was looking at me lovingly, as if I was his one and only love in the world.
“You should stop. Your friends are having a hard time.”
Along with his warm advice, a cozy scent like being in a heated room spread out. I looked only at Do Jihoon as if I was entranced. The rose scent gradually disappeared.
“Wow… now I can finally breathe.”
No sooner had Kim Bojin sighed in relief than Do Jihoon’s gaze turned to him.
“Bojin.”
“…Huh? Why me?”
“How could you let him drink until he got like this?”
Kim Bojin looked at Do Jihoon without hiding his bewilderment.
“No. Actually, that’s not the issue. Why did you contact me? Especially when my parents were right next to me.”
He said while grinding his teeth. Do Jihoon continued to look at Kim Bojin. And I really didn’t like that. Why is my Alpha looking at another Omega?
I grabbed both of Do Jihoon’s cheeks with my hands and turned him to face me. Looking straight into his eyes full of irritation, I said clearly.
“You. You’re my Alpha. Why are you looking at another Omega?”
“What are you talking about…”
He didn’t hide his annoyed expression, but he left me alone as if worried I might act up again. That made me so happy that I completely wrapped Do Jihoon in my rose scent pheromones.
“Jihoonie… my Alpha…”
“…Okay, but can you pull back your pheromones?”
“No… I don’t want to… hug me.”
Kim Bojin seemed to finally realize something was wrong. He tried to separate Do Jihoon and me, gesturing for Do Jihoon to leave quickly.
“Give me back my Alpha! Don’t leave me…”
But as soon as I was separated from Do Jihoon, I was emitting such sharp pheromones that Kim Bojin couldn’t do anything.
Eventually, Do Jihoon approached me again. He wrapped his arms around my legs and put me on his shoulder like a package.
“I’m a package again…”
But before I could feel sad about it, nausea rose in my flipped body. I vomited right away from the rising nausea.
“…”
“…”
The food and alcohol from my stomach poured down onto Do Jihoon’s stylish jacket. Everything was quiet. I looked at the worm stuck to Do Jihoon’s clothes and laughed.
“Oh? A worm. Jihoon. You have a worm now.”
“…”
“You crazy bastard… that’s what you vomited.”
Kim Bojin added from the side.
“I don’t care… I’m sleepy. I want to sleep.”
With that, I passed out while drooling filth from my mouth, draped over Do Jihoon’s shoulder.
❖ ❖ ❖
My lost consciousness gradually returned. I was being carried on Do Jihoon’s back.
“Jihoonie…”
“Shut your mouth. I’m annoyed.”
I heard the sound of a doorbell ringing from outside. But there was no one at home. Naturally, there would be no one to come out of the house.
“Hey. Tell me the password.”
“Mmm…”
“Hey.”
“Don’t call me ‘hey.’ I’m Yeon Yuri. Call me ‘Yuri~'”
“…Yuri. Could you please tell me the password?”
“Say you love me too.”
“…Damn it, my beloved Yuri. Spit out the password.”
I happily gave him the password while emitting very happy pheromones. He carried me on his back all the way to my room at the end of the second floor.
I was thrown onto the bed like a package. Do Jihoon rotated his arms as if his shoulders were stiff.
“Jihoonie…”
“I’m going to make you pay for this.”
“My Alpha…”
“Who’s your Alpha?”
I firmly grabbed Do Jihoon’s wrist as he stood beside me. He swatted my wrist away as if something dirty had touched him.
“Hold me…”
“I’m leaving.”
He turned around and walked away without any lingering feelings. No. I couldn’t let Do Jihoon go like this.
I fully released my scent. Stay by my side. Don’t go. I’m lonely. So that my feelings would be delivered to Do Jihoon without leaving a single grain.
He paused as he was about to open the door. A very loud sigh rang in my ears.
“Mm… don’t go.”
“Fine. Fine. I won’t leave, so pull back your pheromones.”
“If you hold my hand.”
Do Jihoon came to me and held my hand very tightly. It was very satisfying. He sat down on the floor next to my bed. But he looked so pitiful. Tears flowed as Do Jihoon looked miserable, slumped like an abandoned puppy.
“Jihoon… if you sit like that, your butt will hurt…”
“…”
“Come up on the bed. If you’re in pain, I’ll be too sad…”
He seemed to sense my pheromones gradually spreading again. He got up from his seat and sat on the edge of the bed.
“When are your parents coming home?”
“I wonder…”
His cold voice was sad. I sniffled and stumbled over my words. Then his voice quickly became affectionate.
“Hmm? Tell me. My beloved Yuri.”
“Do you love me?”
“Of course.”
But at Do Jihoon’s words of love, I soon answered with a giggle.
“My mom and dad don’t come home much.”
“…Really? What about your sister?”
“Umm… my sister comes around 12 o’clock.”
He turned his head toward the clock. I also turned my head with him. My eyelids kept closing so I couldn’t see clearly, but it looked like about 11:30.
“I’m sleepy…”
“Okay… please sleep…”
He raised his hand and rubbed his face as if he was tired.
“Yes… good night, Jihoonie.”
Finally, I was swept away by the tide of sleepiness and fell into sleep.
❖ ❖ ❖
A soft sensation was wrapping around me. I could feel my pheromone scent filling the room. And at the same time, my whole body was languid as if I was in a warm brazier.
Then, I felt that something was wrong.
Something strange was in my grasp. It seemed to be a living thing since it was warm. While I was escaping reality, hoping that my sister had adopted a dog, a coldly sinking voice pierced my ears.
“Yes. Yuri. Are you awake?”
He spat out each syllable as if chewing them. Goosebumps ran from my neck to my tailbone. Cold sweat beaded up. I kept my eyes closed with effort.
“Yuri. Your breathing has changed. Stop pretending to sleep and open your eyes.”
“…”
Finally, I slightly, very slightly, raised my eyelids. The expanding field of view was filled with a handsome and pretty face.
“…”
“So. Do you remember?”
As soon as that question was heard, all the terrible things I did yesterday crashed back into my mind. The drunken rambling, the vomiting…
I reflexively shouted.
“No.”
“But I do.”
It didn’t work at all. The smirk on Do Jihoon’s face was proof of that.
“Thanks to you, I had a very interesting experience.”
“Damn, I’m sorry…”
“Damn?”
“No. What did I just say?”
