[Bonus chapter] 3.48 The Luckiest Omega
Oliver's fingers trailed down to the visible fingermarks on his hips, its color purple. It was even more prominent from the back. He matched the shape of the Alpha's fingermarks with his own palm and blushed deeper at the sheer difference in size between them. He felt small compared to the Alpha but it was an undeniable truth that Altair was huge; he was a size larger than normal beastmen everywhere and Oliver found himself growing another fetish of how his broad palms felt when they enveloped his slender waist. It was fucking hot. There was a cluster of hickeys on his back as well, and multiple teeth marks on the swell of his ass. Oliver took in a shuddering breath and tried to shake the thought out of his mind before he got hard again. Enough sex for the day, he told himself. He would really die if the Alpha found out that he was getting horny again.0
From this angle, Oliver could barely catch a sight of the mating bite. It was both red and purplish, its flesh still raw from the Alpha's venom.
Oliver sucked in deep breath. Okay, there was no denying it. He was getting hard again. His cock, still too sensitive and tender to the touch, had started to harden, pressing against his thigh and Oliver hadn't got enough willpower to make it go away.
Calm down, Oliver. He inhaled. Calm down and think of something else. Don't let the Alpha notice…
A pair of arms suddenly wrapped around him from behind and his back was pressed onto the surface of a warm and solid chest. Oliver's heart almost jumped out of his throat when the Alpha's voice materialized into his ear. "Thinking of me?"
"A—Altair!" Oliver complained petulantly. "You surprised me! Where did you come from?!"
Lu Yizhou bit the shell of his cat ears and frowned as he realized that Oliver still hadn't dried himself. Disentangling his limbs around the omega, Lu Yizhou went to get the towel. It was only when Oliver had been wrapped in a large fluffy bath robe did he show a hint of satisfaction in the way his lips ticked upward slightly. "You're engrossed in looking at the bite mark." His fingers gently brushed the raw wound and Oliver shivered. "Does it still hurt?"
"En, a bit," he answered hoarsely. He could see them from the mirror. Lu Yizhou's huge body frame made him look especially small, tucked into the Alpha's embrace. Lu Yizhou was wearing a grey comfy sweater paired with black sweatpants, the sleeves rolled upward to show his toned forearms. From the loose collar, Oliver glimpsed upon a red circular teeth mark. His muddled mind conjured up the scene. It seemed like it was from when he was riding the Alpha atop of the carpet. He was biting his lips when Lu Yizhou tugged his jaw apart and directed him toward his own neck. "You can bite here," he'd said. And Oliver did just that. Biting so hard as if he wanted to mark Lu Yizhou like an omega, to claim his stake over him.
He saw as the Alpha's eyes were transfixed on the bite, his eyes glowing in molten silver. Then he dipped his head low and licked the wound.
Oliver yelped in shock and almost jumped off the Alpha's embrace if not for the arms holding him tight in place. His face twisted in an attempt to ignore the building arousal deep in the pit of his stomach. "N—No, I really can't do it anymore…" He pressed on the Alpha's arms in a futile attempt to push him away. He didn't budge, of course.
"Don't lie." The Alpha murmured into his skin. His arms snaked down from his hips to part the hem of the robe and grabbed Oliver's hardening cock. Oliver gasped and arched into the warmth. "I should help you out."
And then Oliver came twice more in the bathroom. They had to wash him all over again and when Lu Yizhou carried him to bed, Oliver rolled down with an 'oof', unable to muster the strength to even lift a finger. His Alpha—his!—had been right. Oliver indeed needed to let it out of his system. Now he felt truly relaxed, the kind that sent numbness on his scalp, so comfortable that he wanted to laze around in bed for the rest of the day. He blinked at the ceiling, letting his mind empty as Lu Yizhou went out to get them some food.
Right, what date was it today? How long had it been since they locked themselves inside the bedroom and fucked the life out of each other? Oliver couldn't believe that he had forgotten to check his communicator firsthand in the morning. And oh, Emperor Father must be looking for him. He must have heard about Rosemane's incident. Just being reminded of the horse omega was enough to make Oliver groan. If he could, Oliver wanted to chain the Alpha and himself to the bed so that they could continue their delicious, mind-blowing sex session until the end of the time. But he knew that it was simply selfish. They still had tons of problems to tackle.
Lu Yizhou returned bearing a tray a few moments later, the aroma of warm congee suffused into the air. Oliver sat up eagerly and his mouth watered when Lu Yizhou moved the table closer so that he could eat on the bed. He inhaled deeply, blissful. How could the Alpha be so thoughtful and considerate? This was Oliver's first meal for days and no matter how hungry he was, he wasn't sure whether he could stomach anything other than liquid food and voila, the porridge was here. The Alpha took a small spoonful and blew on it before he fed it to Oliver. Like a baby bird, Oliver only needed to open his mouth wide and swallow.
He was really the luckiest omega in the world.
The bowl of porridge was gone less than ten minutes later and Oliver was getting sleepy again. His tummy was full and he was warm, happy and comfortable. He opened his arms wide to the Alpha and batted his lashes pleadingly. "Cuddles?"
Lu Yizhou nodded without a word. He put the dirty bowl away and climbed into the bed. He lay on his back and Oliver automatically found his place, sprawled atop of the Alpha's chest. He let out a delighted exhale, his body softening even more as Lu Yizhou drew circles on his hips. "There's something I must tell you," the Alpha suddenly said.
Oliver blinked sleepily and yawned. "Hmm?"
Lu Yizhou kept rubbing circles on his hips, the movement so comforting that Oliver was seconds away from dozing off. And then in that exact moment did he drop the bomb. "My fathers, they are here."
Oliver blinked, then blinked again. Altair's fathers? That meant… He suddenly shot up sitting, ignoring the sharp sting of pain on his waist. His eyes widened in horror. "Y—Your fathers? The Emperor and Empress of Versatine? Here, as in Alaze?!"

Mini theater
When Lu Yizhou was picking up their messy clothes that were strewn all over the floor, he found something small and hard on the back of the pocket of Oliver's jeans. Frowning, he pulled it out to find a small vial filled with transparent liquid. This was… He glanced at Oliver through his peripheral vision and found the omega dozing off on the bed, his expression soft and serene. Lu Yizhou gingerly rolled the vial between his fingers and brought it to his nose for a sniff. In an instant, his heart sank. This was the same scent he smelled on Oliver back when he was in a coma from pheromone perfume allergy. Lu Yizhou couldn't have mistaken it. What was this vial doing in Oliver's pocket?
He pressed his lips together.
"Oh!" Oliver's eyes abruptly widened and he lifted his head from the comfort of the fluffy blanket and Lu Yizhou's shirts. "That is—" He hesitated, eyes flickering with…guilt?
"Is this yours?"
Lu Yizhou had no idea what his expression looked like but judging from how flustered Oliver was, it couldn't be good. "A—Altair, I can explain…"
"What are you doing with this thing? Are you planning to use it?" Lu Yizhou forced the words out through gritted teeth. The image of Oliver coughing out blood, sick and dying, flashed through his mind and he found himself balling his fists so tight that the glass vial cracked. But then, recalling Oliver's allergy, he forced himself to loosen his hold and took a deep breath.
"Alpha, don't be angry…" Oliver hastily padded across the floor to hug his waist, lashes fluttering in cajole. It always worked on him and Oliver knew how to use it to make Lu Yizhou do his bidding. But not this time. Lu Yizhou tightened his jaw and didn't relent. He wouldn't, if it concerned Oliver's well-being. "I mean, the thought crossed my mind before but I didn't plan on using it! I know how dangerous it is but at that time, I was kinda desperate to…" He cleared his throat and averted his gaze.
Lu Yizhou's expression turned stormy. "Oliver."
"I know!" Oliver cried out for mercy. "I know it's stupid of me—"
His words were cut off when Lu Yizhou yanked him into an embrace. Oliver's eyes widened when he sensed that Lu Yizhou's body was shaking slightly. "Altair…"
Lu Yizhou nosed into Oliver's soft fluffy hair, inhaling the scent of his own shampoo and the omega's sweet pheromones. "Don't do that, ever. Promise me that you will think of yourself first." All he wanted was to keep Oliver safe and sound, to see the omega living happily for the rest of his life. He would loathe it if something were to happen to the omega, especially if it concerned him.
Oliver blinked out of his reverie and gently brought his arm around the Alpha's broad back. He had always been huge, yet at this moment, he seemed especially small and fragile, Oliver realized with not so little heartache. How could he ever deserve this man? "I understand. I will do that," he said softly.
