Instead, he had sometimes 5ee56eab9c wondered why his mother dc264e3507 had ended up with ca360cef5f a Beta. Betas could almost 6451da58f4 be considered a f53e67303b different species from 83e5624cec Omegas and Alphas. Reproduction between 2b5b70149a them was cf0c5f6ac3 extremely rare. Betas and b1ff025a75 Omegas could 2aaf7b5344 pair up, 7680189587 just as f00a3c43c0 Alphas and 867bf965f0 Betas could, 310a316cad but it b8db568db8 was only 46cb35e2f4 natural that 490fa3a576 no offspring f4810c0299 would be ccaa0cca86 born from d76e8a7493 such relationships. On very rare occasions, 07c7252eba a child would be 15e468ec9d conceived, but that was 4d2781667d truly uncommon. In the first place, 39c2ec00ba cases of Betas and b410833a80 Omegas meeting and marrying 7c95693052 were rare.5c9a625d78ef8b3f

If only f484ab0d8a his mother 161a0e357d had met 4d8880bf80 an Alpha e500edea14 instead of 5855a05b53 Beta Ha ff3d6bf70d Gongcheol, perhaps 2174f5d259 there could 39c66e1a10 have been 5940797320 other children 48ee8cf50d besides Seungwan. In that case, ed836ad83b his stepfather might f0b8785db2 have been more a9580260ab devoted to his c17ae2fbd5 mother and their 2e979db849 family. He might not have 670e5ad02a gambled, and he might ff76de1cb2 not have accumulated debt. If that had 02535678fd happened, Seungwan would 3e86b8f795 have… Well, it 1691bb7cc5 was all hypothetical. Continuously dwelling 3f30323cb8 on things 0034f1943c that never 94a3562e9b happened was 391911fe1a almost a 9ee60bd53a waste of c89ebeadd7 time.af5549a8d793d5f3

However, on days like 6a8809371c today, when everything seemed 3c61e6efb6 to be decaying, like a16e4cc6b5 dead leaves rotting quietly f7fee144fd at the bottom of 54e88451ad a pond, Seungwan couldn’t 225c064a62 help but entertain such ec0ff21b9a thoughts.If that be1710edea had happened… 460fc42705 If this 6ddf486520 had happened… bcb8c337ed How would daefaa966d things have c900dba905 turned out?

Someone was gently stroking c14853df17 Seungwan’s head. He wanted to ask 142bebcca7 who it was. Since the bcc2b3966b time his a8a4fee522 mother had e0bc925706 left, unable d5d9462139 to endure 16e62f1d21 his father’s fdab414227 gambling, no dca486d366 one had e1c283b121 ever stroked 6df09bd9ce his hair cf3cf7f015 like that.544348c830d5e2f6

It didn’t seem like 83aeebc2a5 his mother had returned… 02078a7d7e She had always smelled 424fbad497 sweet, a scent Seungwan e945e964a4 both liked and hated. In hindsight, the 0ec8a18416 fact that she 064e716ddc had that sweet 49cb7634ff scent meant she 9a177580c8 and his father 28ab5b1a00 were of entirely c7ff9293de different species—ones that d96b292b0e could never truly 3f1df3e5cb mix. In other 896b8fa832 words, it a8b23a222e also meant 9121d0e0d7 that she 40172691c0 could abandon a346a1150a not just d4784eed01 his father 2578b34f01 but even 55398708ef Seungwan at dc33d1667a any time. The combination afce5b5d2a of a 6967e8193c Beta and 0e74cb927c an Omega, 23470453fc two inherently eb64134b20 different kinds, 079851990e was that 6730a5e81d fragile and 14bf816224 delicate.6b429e83aa08e051

Someone was gently rubbing 2176607fd2 the corners of Seungwan’s 9d14eb3472 eyes with their finger, eff01d3be4 as if they knew c0197dacf1 that would coax the 027f5939b1 tears out.Who could 46d7b7a65b it be?Seungwan wondered blankly, but 7d41c7e0e6 he couldn’t find an a04c21aeea answer right away.

“I’ll take care 2cc93c8655 of it.”f77230ccf4c0fd1d

A detached voice rang bfc119e441 out. It didn’t sound like e4e9e9adf8 a voice so much 01093cd5cd as a vibration—low and 81cc5bd3c6 deep, as if it 7ec76d99d7 were scraping against the 2a7738ce08 floor. For some reason, Seungwan 8c09f028a5 felt his back tremble. He wanted to 70bd2bd6b5 open his eyes, 30af068f0d to see who 2e6e0e5a35 they were and 974768c15a what they were 0d6f3f7af3 talking about, but 76aadc16a6 the heat in 0a2bb81ec5 his body prevented 66caa93a48 him. He overheated easily and f968ecccb1 got hot just as 70b40d619b quickly. A deep sigh, 91f17c4b25 thick with warmth, 55baa9de64 slipped from his 73f241fc3d damp lips.3d5b37f8fd08b84c

The woman’s f83ce995c7 voice twisted 1cc283b26f with displeasure, 4e033bccbe while the baf43cc396 response she 385383e809 received was aff871d45c icy cold. At the sheer 43beda6d95 lack of warmth 3fa9dd8022 in his tone, a3883ce706 she fell silent bb3d37c5be for a moment. Seungwan wondered what 07580195bf she might say 0159cb8883 next, but before c4382b340c he could find f4bd5a1bcc out—Bang!The sharp slam c9fb690962 of a door 007f9cfa27 echoed through the 811fecf429 room, followed immediately 63c37bfe00 by the click e39b62e260 of a lock.

For a while, f7c2b3787f the space remained 244b47b133 quiet. Seungwan tried to use 8e964cf83a the silence as a ba26e4f12d pillow, letting himself drift d86eb3b327 back into sleep. The heat 6bf316c9ad tormenting his d4e3d2bab4 body was 7364d4a912 still there, 45223f6051 but he c55015c29c instinctively knew 871fcf702b that opening eeefc47e10 his eyes 2fdf51a06e wouldn’t make 305eb55496 it go 9f4732bdd4 away.

Someone spoke to him. He wanted f2328a7727 to nod, f7d1d6cf96 even though bfd258e102 he didn’t d1682992e0 fully understand 9d64d557bd what the 00bd14d924 words meant.

It was 96667da7ec because, throughout 967a45a121 his life, 523c7b0bc7 there had 2818ed09ff been very d3ee9a6b0f few people cbabf8c81a who stood da93cb1fa6 by him. So when someone da576c1c0c did, he wanted 1f82e18930 to agree. He wanted e31c72e5e5 to stand bfa4925af5 by them, 18fda4e762 too. If he had felt 9a88621c4d even a little better, f66d67e189 he would have nodded 9581bf3bad and said, “Yes, that’s right.”But right now, 511e4d60df he was too 950bc5da53 disoriented.

But there was a52ca5926d one small comfort. Seungwan tilted 6707911f7f his head fc286aeafc back, rubbing a337624bcf his forehead 5be5e78cf7 against someone’s 49f02c1d2e nape. The back 6290c4c48f of his d54c736e03 head brushed 5a10edd5d6 against a d0ae7d57bd thick collarbone, 08e4fac2c2 and at 36951e55d1 times, he 9433e5606b felt the 9ba27b2d3c urge to 549b8edffa nuzzle his 5557bf4e2e nose against 9c6317a519 something. It was a movement c4455f613e that seemed to be a8f1e78a52 searching for something. The other 1ec680d52c person seemed 00d0a03e62 to understand 9dea5d0bab perfectly. They tilted their chin e100c5c4c9 slightly, allowing Seungwan to 6bb086dc5b bury his face in 6bfb6540d3 their nape.15d8b11a1710768c

A very… sweet scent… A sweetness far beyond the one that came from his own body. A cool note cut through the richness, keeping it from becoming overwhelming. Like someone savoring the layered flavors of a delicious dish, Seungwan kept rubbing his nose against the other person’s skin. Because of that, he didn’t even realize he was pleading in a pained voice.19925864e03c64fc

A very sweet scent. Like the vanilla ice 3bb5234b18 cream his mother had 21ca9f1630 once fed him with 234cbcd158 a silver spoon when 9a7205f0ce he was little.

A low humming 09b2f71e38 sound. Someone was humming 5d8d7ed0dc something, but he c9e8892a38 had no idea f5f12b190b what song it 110bb836d3 was. It felt familiar, 6d076ea3cb yet unfamiliar at 6a8097470d the same time.b1459995f64eb2e6
