Yeoul, who had been put in the car by Secretary Kim, was extremely tense.
Although Eun Sajun would help, he was still very worried about Yeojin’s condition after being captured by Shin Taeon. Moreover, Yeojin didn’t have Intermittent Explosive Disorder like Yeoul and was also weak in terms of physical strength.
“Baby-nim. Please drink this at least.”
Secretary Kim, who had been watching Yeoul’s condition from the passenger seat, offered him liquid bezoar pills. Yeoul received it with trembling hands and drank it, but his anxiety wasn’t refreshingly calmed. Instead, his head was filled with thoughts of Yeojin.
It would be troublesome if something happened to Yeojin.
No. No. No. No.
Obsessive thoughts began to grow. At this rate, he felt like he would go crazy from suffocation.
“I… I… this won’t work.”
“Yes?”
“I’m worried about Yeojin, so I can’t just stay like this.”
Eventually, Yeoul opened the car door and ran out. At the same time, Secretary Kim also got out and hurriedly blocked Yeoul’s path.
“D-don’t do this. Just wait…”
Yeoul pushed past Secretary Kim with his shoulder. He felt like an obstacle. He hurriedly ran toward the stone wall where Eun Sajun had disappeared. There, guards stood like solid rocks.
Yeoul tried to get past them. But the guards blocked Yeoul’s path and faithfully interfered. At their obstruction, Yeoul felt fire rising in his stomach and sharpened his eyes.
“Please move aside…”
“That’s difficult.”
At their firm attitude, Yeoul’s heart beat more ominously and he felt like going crazy. Growing impatient, Yeoul looked around. Perhaps because it was a stone wall, the surroundings were also full of hard stones. Yeoul clenched his molars as if making a big decision. Then he picked up a stone and threw it at the guard’s face.
“No, ugh! What is this…”
The guards seemed very flustered when Yeoul came out aggressively. While their attention was focused on the stone, Yeoul jumped over the stone wall like a swift squirrel.
“I’m sorry. I had no choice.”
Yeoul hurriedly headed into the mountains. Although he had come here yesterday too, today felt somehow different. Even though the sky wasn’t full of dark clouds, it was too dark and chilly. Even though the weather had warmed up, goosebumps arose as if winter had returned. Nevertheless, his two legs didn’t stop.
How long had he run and run? Gradually, Yeoul’s breathing became labored.
“Haa, haa, where is Yeojin…?”
Gradually, he could clearly smell blood through his nose. At the same time, Yeoul felt like all his blood was draining. His heart, which was already beating from tension, beat even more intensely. With each step he took, his heartbeat seemed to ring near his ears.
Soon he saw the form of someone who had collapsed covered in blood.
“Gasp. Yeojin?”
Yeoul approached the corpse while trembling. But the build was too heavy to be Yeojin. Looking closely, it was Shin Taeon with blonde hair and dark skin. His neck was deeply cut by something sharp. It was almost in a severed state.
“Hiik.”
Flustered, Yeoul pulled his body back. His heart beat unbearably. For Yeoul, who had only thought about the situation of Shin Taeon killing Yeojin, Shin Taeon’s corpse was an intense variable.
“What… what on earth…”
Could it be Eun Sajun who did this? Then, where is Yeojin? Yeoul looked around. Normally, he would have been greatly confused and frozen by Shin Taeon’s corpse, but Yeoul, for whom Yeojin’s whereabouts were more precious, first roamed the mountains.
“Yeojin! Where are you!”
Growing impatient, Yeoul shouted. He gradually felt his stamina dropping, becoming short of breath, and his fever rising.
“Haa… haa…”
At the same time, his belly also became hot. It seemed like his body was experiencing problems due to physical and mental hardship. First, he sat down and regulated his breathing. Then, after barely calming down, he took steps again.
How long had he walked? He felt a presence behind him. The moment Yeoul tried to turn around, someone pulled him into an embrace. At the same time, he lost his balance and his body fell backward. But thanks to the sensation of something cushioning his fall, he didn’t feel much impact.
“What?”
Flustered, Yeoul hurriedly looked back.
“Hyung.”
It was Yeojin.
“How… how…”
Yeoul felt relief and quickly got off Yeojin. Yeojin’s face and body were a mess. Dark red blood and dirt were smeared here and there.
“Shin Taeon was collapsed, so what happened? Are you hurt anywhere?”
“I’m fine. I’m not hurt anywhere.”
“I see…”
Yeoul felt relieved once more and continued speaking.
“Then, who made Shin Taeon like that?”
It was essentially an obvious question, but he couldn’t help asking out of curiosity.
“Eun Sajun made him like that.”
“As expected…”
So, in conclusion, had he saved Yeojin? Like a savior… Yeoul felt his heart trembling. But why wasn’t Yeojin with Eun Sajun but separated from him?
Moreover, Yeojin’s expression was different from usual. On the surface, he was expressionless, but it seemed like he felt a kind of enlightenment as if he had given up on everything. But his eyes also had moist moisture. It was a strange state where liberation and sadness coexisted simultaneously.
“I’m more trash than hyung thinks.”
“Huh?”
He wondered why Yeojin was suddenly acting like this. There was no trace of his eight-year-old act. Instead, regret was strongly felt.
“To be honest, I’ve hated hyung since we were young.”
At Yeojin’s statement, Yeoul felt his heart sink once more.
“Hyung could do everything. I was jealous of that hyung and wanted to be loved more by our parents. But at the manifestation test, hyung was an Extremely Dominant Omega and I was diagnosed as an Extremely Recessive Omega, and this selfish feeling grew even bigger.”
“You’re an Extremely Recessive Omega…?”
Yeoul’s eyes widened in surprise. In fact, last time at the obstetrics clinic, while listening to the conversation between Kang Hyeok and Eun Sajun, he had secretly suspected that Yeojin was the person who hid the fact that he was an Extremely Dominant Omega. But he only thought Yeojin was the same Extremely Dominant Omega as him, never dreaming he would be an Extremely Recessive Omega.
“Yeah. So I was afraid of being discriminated against by our parents and forged the manifestation results. I set hyung as an Extremely Recessive Omega and myself as an Extremely Dominant Omega.”
“…….”
“I thought I had hidden it well, but when I heard about hyung’s pregnancy, I thought hyung would now learn the truth too, and I couldn’t bear being afraid of that moment. Also, I didn’t want to see hyung being happy beside Eun Sajun as an Extremely Dominant Omega.”
At Yeojin’s honest appearance, Yeoul felt hollow as if there was a hole in his chest rather than betrayal.
“I just wanted to be loved and happy more than hyung. I guess that greed was too excessive.”
“Yeojin…”
“But, even if that’s how I am, hyung should run away.”
“What are you talking about?”
At Yeojin’s words, Yeoul’s heart sank.
“Eun Sajun isn’t normal.”
“I do know that. But…”
Now that a life form mixing him and Eun Sajun had entered his belly, he could no longer push him away. Above all, it was even more so since he had saved Yeojin from Shin Taeon’s clutches. But for some reason, Yeojin didn’t regard Eun Sajun as a benefactor and instead had an expression close to disgust.
“That Alpha will destroy anything if things don’t go his way. Hyung might be killed too.”
At Yeojin’s shocking statement, Yeoul’s body stiffened.
“What are you talking about? Why would I be killed?”
“Because that person regards hyung like a baby he’s just raising. If things don’t go his way, he’ll make an extreme choice.”
“Why are you saying such things?”
Yeoul was very flustered by Yeojin disparaging the person who had saved him from Shin Taeon’s schemes like this.
It was when Yeojin was about to say something more. The sound of someone running fast was heard. Soon the tree branches parted and guards in black suits appeared. They had bruises on their foreheads and eyelids. They were the protagonists who had been hit by the stones Yeoul had thrown in front of the stone wall earlier.
And between them, Eun Sajun appeared.
“So you were here. Our baby.”
Although he was said to have killed Shin Taeon, he was very clean without a single drop of blood. Meanwhile, Yeojin’s condition was a complete mess. But in his black-gloved hands, a blood-soaked knife existed eerily.
His gaze was directed at Yeoul.
“Baby. I told you to wait in the car. What are you doing here?”
“No… I…”
“Haa… This is troublesome…”
Eun Sajun sighed and gently approached.
“You don’t know what Geum Yeojin might do again, so why did you come?”
“Huh?”
Yeoul felt like the situation he had been assuming had cracked. He was still wary of Yeojin. Hadn’t he saved him from Shin Taeon? It was confusing.
“Come here.”
Eun Sajun grabbed Yeoul’s wrist and pulled him toward the guards. Soon he stared intently at Geum Yeojin.
“What did you say to our baby?”
“I just told him the fact that you’re an irrational pervert.”
“Haha… This is really… how flattering.”
Eun Sajun’s voice was full of strange composure. In contrast, Yeoul was endlessly anxious. Since the facts he knew had been overturned, it seemed like Eun Sajun’s blade would now make its final destination toward Yeojin.
“S-stop.”
Yeoul urgently moved behind the guards and stood protectively in front of Yeojin.
“Now Shin Taeon has been dealt with and Yeojin apologized to me too. Stop now.”
“Baby.”
Eun Sajun stared intently at Yeoul.
“Will you move aside?”
