100: 3.40 Have You Been Waiting?

3.40 Have You Been Waiting?

Oliver licked his gums and offered tentatively. "Do you want me to—"0

"No."

The omega was half amused and half exasperated. "You haven't even heard the question yet."

"The answer is still no." Lu Yizhou took over the washcloth and threw it somewhere in the room. Just like that, it became the least important thing in Oliver's mind. Not when the Alpha was slowly stalking closer and closer and Oliver stepped back by reflex until the back of his knees bumped against the solid mattress and he fell to the soft bed that's covered in fluffy pillows and blankets. O–Oh, he had forgotten to confess something. Lu Yizhou observed the bed which clearly looked like it had been slept on. "You slept here when I was away? Even made a nest on it?"

"Is there a problem with that?" Oliver grumbled and gathered the blanket around himself, hiding the most important asset of his nest from sight; the Alpha's shirts which he secretly stole from the closet. He liked to hug and smell them before he slept every night. Like that, he could pretend that Lu Yizhou was there with him. "You left me alone in this big, empty house. I can't even do this?"

Lu Yizhou observed him for a moment and then let out a huff. Oliver's eyes snapped up. That… Was that a laugh? Altair was laughing?! He blinked dazedly at the mirth that glanced around the Alpha's eyes. "You can do whatever you want." He said with that soft, indulgent tone that made Oliver feel like he was the most treasured omega in the whole world. "What's mine is yours."

Ugh. Oliver buried his burning face into his palms. He was supposed to be the one that riled the Alpha up so how could he let a mere few words defeat him like this? Unfair. It was so unfair! 

Lu Yizhou gently pried Oliver's hands open. "Let me see your bruise." As if handling a frightened animal, his movement was soft and careful as he slid the blanket off Oliver's shoulders and once again, Oliver got the urge to cry from how sweet he was. The Alpha's brows furrowed when the bruise came to sight. Anger flashed in his silver eyes before it swiftly faded when Oliver soothed on the lines between his brows. "Does it hurt?" He asked and started to massage Oliver's arm.

Oliver had to bite back a moan. The Alpha didn't put in any strength at all. Instead of massaging, it looked more like he was kneading and teasing. Goosebumps flared along Oliver's arm and if Lu Yizhou noticed that, he didn't say anything about it. It took a few seconds for Oliver to actually comprehend that Lu Yizhou was waiting for an answer. "It doesn't hurt." After seeing Lu Yizhou's dark look, he corrected. "Well, a bit… I think? I was desperate to get to you so…"

"Don't do it again." He sounded genuinely upset and Oliver thought he was fucking hot. Well, he was already sexy to begin with but there's just another level to this kind of sweet and tranquil domesticity, you know? Ah, he really wanted to birth this Alpha a child, the thought came to him out of nowhere. They would look so beautiful and adorable with little horns or wings, chubby cheeks and sweet laughter that sounded like wind chimes. Oliver was so lost in his own fantasy that he didn't notice when Lu Yizhou was leaning closer until the Alpha's hot breaths landed on his shoulder followed by another hot, wet and silky sensation. 

Oliver's body gave a surprised jerk and his eyes widened at the sight of Lu Yizhou licking his bruises with one-minded devotion. "A—Altair…" His body trembled and every lick seemed to send shudders straight down his spine and settled in his lower abdomen. His erection that barely softened had woken up once again and he could feel dampness inside his underwear. "Altair, what are you—"

"Treatment." The Alpha simply said then returned to licking Oliver all over.

At one point of a time, Oliver's back gave up on him and he fell back toward the soft mattress. Lu Yizhou followed hot on his trail. The Alpha's tall body towered over him and his presence engulfed him fully. Oliver's throat hitched when Lu Yizhou pressed a soft kiss on the place where it was throbbing — now for an entirely different reason. "Altair…" He whined. He reached out toward the Alpha, all flushed and tender with lips parted with want. And Lu Yizhou reciprocated by kissing him softly, gently and languidly. It was a contrast to their frenetic kiss earlier. They were taking their sweet, sweet time now. Slowly exploring the shape of each other's lips and savoring the taste. "Altair, do you still want me to go?" Oliver whispered into his mouth.

He felt it vividly when the Alpha's chest rumbled in a growl. "Don't."

Oliver smiled giddily and tugged Lu Yizhou's body down. They laid side by side, nose brushing and breaths mingling. Lu Yizhou's arms were loosely wrapped around him, caging him in a firm yet still free restrain shall he wished to leave. 

"You have to try harder if you want to chase me away." Oliver winked at him.

Under the dim setting sun that managed to seep in through the curtain, Lu Yizhou's body was obscured in between shadows, lithe and powerful. His huge wings folded behind him in a blanket of furry warmth. Oliver raked his eyes all over his features, tracing every perfection that couldn't seem to cease his awe before his eyes ended up being drawn by the intense molten silver of the Alpha's pupils. They spent minutes simply staring at each other, basking in the other's presence and it felt as good as possible to know that this was real. Oliver brushed his thumb on the corner of Lu Yizhou's eyes where the eyebags had almost turned blue. "You look tired."

Lu Yizhou shook his head but Oliver could see it, the pent-up exhaustion in his eyes. He had had a long day; going through the match with Ryan, then trapped with Rosemane, losing control and injuring himself… Oliver leaned in and inhaled his scent deeply. In return, Lu Yizhou brought him into a tight embrace, his head tucked under Oliver's chin, his horns resting snugly against the omega's cheek. Their legs tangled intimately. Oliver was trying really hard to ignore the raging hard-on that was pressing against his thigh. "You should get some rest, okay?" Oliver gingerly placed his palm on the Alpha's hair and stroked his head, scratching his scalp intermittently. He hummed a random tune, one that he'd heard his nanny sang before. And before he had even finished it, Lu Yizhou had fallen asleep, his breathing long and deep. 

Oliver let out a blissful sigh and closed his eyes.

He had no idea how long he slept but when he woke up next time, it was to the sensation of hot air brushing against his neck and lingering sharp nibbles on his skin. He opened his eyes to utter darkness. The sky outside was dark and the light in the room was off. When Oliver's eyes adjusted to the dark, he gradually processed the huge body that was hovering above him as Lu Yizhou. 

Lu Yizhou, hot and restless, breathing raggedly. 

"Altair…?" 

This clearly wasn't the situation Oliver imagined he would wake up to. Amidst the pitch black room, a pair of glowing light pupils were transfixed on him, so intense that the drowsiness in Oliver's system evaporated in an instant. The Alpha was like a predator that was silently watching its prey, silent and deadly. He gave a shudder and belatedly realized that he was half hard already. Propping his elbows up, he called out again, nervously. "A—Altair…?"

Oliver prayed to whoever God that was listening because damn, Lu Yizhou was naked. He had stripped himself out of clothes, all tan skin and hard muscles and a huge bundle of unadulterated lust. For some reason, his shirt and pants were currently in Oliver's grasp, hugged to his chest when he slept. What..? Did he somehow undress the Alpha in his sleep? Was he actually this wanton? Oliver gulped and gingerly placed the clothes that were reeking with pheromones beside the pillow, right in the middle of his nest. All along, Lu Yizhou's eyes trekked his every movement, his breathing grew rough. The temperature in the room was high and the air was saturated with the waves of burning pheromones that stemmed from Lu Yizhou's body. 

Oh, Oliver realized with a sinking realization. The Alpha's rut had finally arrived.

Nervousness and anticipation coursed through Oliver's veins and his desire slammed back like a tidal wave. He was so ready for this. Lu Yizhou let out a low snarl from his gritted teeth and Oliver smiled, opening his arms wide. "Have you been waiting for long?"
