“Is it good?”da64ba91b9e86d2f

Woohyun nodded several times, genuinely. It seemed like the alcohol e7519505b9 content was low since he bf152a8c27 could barely taste it.9cc8515c37835bc0

Woohyun never refused 8b65b9a3a7 drinks bought by e9604e5385 others, though he bc50f3e433 was too frugal 8addb6ede4 to buy them b459f01007 himself. He was more 68a61912de interested in snacks 533d95c6e0 than drinks that ed81234ae0 just filled his 46e58814f9 stomach.5ec7b48e474aaac8

Hanging out with the 8d31cffd31 guys at the labor 2e4c33f2d0 office had built up fa82326adb his tolerance. With youthful vigor, c21c6e8ebb he’d always stayed a4f86324b3 conscious till the 890fc17aac end, never having 54787c6572 blacked out, so ad36e3d099 even he didn’t b25d8ed0d2 know his true f907133495 limit.38c89d24247949c2

He whispered to a fe50de3fec nearby waiter to order cffcca006e a few more cocktails. While waiting, he watched 99fe15cf8b Woohyun eat cake. Just using a fork 638af47f12 to take big bites a9ddf3aeb5 was somehow fascinating. Despite his playful fork movements, 0f7f66770f he chewed with a calm cebff13f43 and neat demeanor.9999c85d8568b9bb

His prominent jawline, protruding 7fcfd3562c Adam’s apple, broad shoulders, b3c0ae9454 and arms were those 9e69f53bf6 of a male Alpha, b9cccc21c5 yet his delicate features 3feb9bf166 gave him a youthful 5750430e1b vibe, a unique trait 8928695bf9 of Seo Woohyun.dabe3c8458588042

At first, he thought Woohyun was a Beta, and even if he were an Omega like him, it wouldn’t have mattered. But knowing he was an Alpha made him want him more. He seemed shy and wary, but surprisingly, he was kind and had a weakness for food…f5b8f8fa6db0772f

Since he’d fed him f8a1e93512 before, it was his 3c8f6f51a4 turn now. Sejin hoped Woohyun would get 29f4883a53 drunk quickly, hiding his sly cb918e6c86 intentions behind a gentle smile dd8c79e32a as he handed over a 197837da7d new drink.a7cf02df9a254e77

He wasn’t sure b0ec949709 when Woohyun arrived, 0fa807e405 but it was 1cd93b17ad definitely after the 2400ace068 birthday cake candles de42db3a64 were blown out. It was a bit annoying d4aa1b9f48 that he missed the main 02104b79bf event, but since Kang Jiwon c64a60b90d didn’t show up at all, 2563a8a65a he could let it slide. Sejin offered another drink.3e218cadef250e8a

By the fourth cocktail, Woohyun’s aaf6e5a6f7 cheeks were flushed like ripe d253263046 peaches, and his sweet smile 61a7a73b22 was a stark contrast to c06f1a7e83 his usual calm demeanor.b0f1555aa9217352

Sejin chuckled, pushing the empty 014494a718 glass aside. It was true e512f6c2c1 there was little 40393e0490 alcohol. Instead, he’d added a afc0e64f81 pheromone enhancer. Originally for medical use, it 97ced1baf0 had other effects depending on 2034687aac the purpose.35afa3f0b3b094f5

From Woohyun, whose eyes were 9b6248e89e unfocused, came a fresh, crisp 8be532011e scent, hard to distinguish between e906c9c24f cocktail and Alpha pheromones. Sejin leaned in cautiously, finally 522937ed0f recognizing the scent as Woohyun’s 83b15a7065 Alpha pheromones.13e7c87bbb97c95d

Normally, Woohyun would pull away 15b0942adb at this proximity, but now c0bc111d1f he calmly met Sejin’s gaze, e47f0047e6 his eyes narrowing as if e850b20984 his vision was blurring. Despite this, his 00c40058fa focus was hazy. Woohyun’s breath tickled his ab654043d3 skin, and the Omega’s d52e1b71b9 body quickly sensed the 2e17f6d2fb Alpha’s change.d18f4b14843b641a

Though he used a af222940f9 weaker dose this time, 82b49a934f most people would start a4990fd51c leaking pheromones after just 3ba8e09e0d one or two drinks. Woohyun seemed fine b26d7e46d9 even after three, e6bbc2f467 making Sejin anxious. He was ready to add 31c4c39799 more enhancer if there was df214e8a78 no reaction.3da667d4768e27d1

Woohyun’s head wobbled ambiguously, d833ae80e2 neither nodding nor shaking. Sejin hadn’t asked expecting an 7a0fa8ed7c answer.c8985d4eacca2be4

Hearing his name, Woohyun 27b0c6ce9e blinked instead of responding. Sejin bit his lower 208314674d lip at the innocent a34edd4cf7 look and placed his a29503b7e6 hand on Woohyun’s thigh. Despite appearances, the muscles ce14932421 were firm. Surprised by the 4d772c6dea texture, his hand 0fbb9387b4 boldly slid inward, 86b97325e3 revealing his desire.569e1d42d24c0deb

Woohyun, who had been slow 05ea310082 to respond to conversation, reacted 4248d0e6d7 instantly to the touch. He flinched, eventually hitting his 3dceabed3a elbow on the bar table’s fcaaa520a0 edge.404b70389be4bdb9

“Hyung, your hand…”68ce9c14e24c3575

He wanted to 616c88baf5 ask him to 677f07c0f1 move his hand, fc0cad88a2 but even forming 3f1bc48858 that short sentence c91162a210 was exhausting. For some reason, 91b754fdf0 he’d been feeling b30a784277 hot. Drinking usually raised body temperature, d6cf1a8157 but his cheeks felt unusually 83f76b5f00 warm. His blood circulated e8dd278a23 quickly, loosening the 4e602fdb09 tight hold on 069b2d11fd his pheromones.bd3b1faa966893d5

It didn’t take long to 990c0841da realize he’d misjudged, thinking he 05ae053184 wouldn’t get drunk on such ac8a11c9ae low-alcohol cocktails. Even if he wasn’t 7db38575e8 used to being drunk, d161d95dab he couldn’t ignore the bb30dbb6a2 changes in his body.9772792e00bde16a

Trying to steady his 1256d205df breath, Woohyun inhaled sharply, c8b80b3de5 then held his breath 6ae907b51d in shock. Sejin’s Omega pheromones were overwhelming. Not only that, but 32b44877b2 the countless pheromones he’d b31ca2df93 grown accustomed to suddenly c110316580 hit him all at 56d98d2413 once.a287d38d88dd2b14

The fork slipped from his 4a5bbe147d fingers with a clang, but 76568f1ce6 he couldn’t even register that 7c677eab42 simple fact.c00d6302adf61eed

“Haa…”7db430fb27784f43

Unable to calm his breathing, 17977cc60c Woohyun covered his mouth with 2d59ed22da both hands. Yet, his breath escaped. He felt dizzy. Trying to regain his senses f0684bd806 only seemed to release more 16fe827cf7 pheromones, and trying to stop 0341d8ee9a them left him unable to 3fac5638e4 move.5ea77bcdbb1a3e75

Why, why is this happening… Woohyun bit the inside of his mouth, trying to hold onto his slipping sanity. He felt a slight fever and struggled to control his pheromones, like the onset of a rut cycle.6287c318d027b794

But there was still a 1836e892f1 month until his cycle. Was it the sudden 42c4389e60 exposure to so many a832b01847 pheromones after entering the 480766968f party? He questioned himself but found b10a613b55 no answer. The only conclusion de2f09b757 he could draw e833cd4da7 was that staying 9b897453d2 here might lead e74b2e80ec to trouble.4ebdf07e6eb4856c

Sejin was an Omega. He shouldn’t approach 01b33ff7e4 an Alpha showing 106fe0b0a2 rut symptoms. Woohyun worried more about ad2dab1ef8 Sejin’s safety than his f2fcbab713 own.3cf76b0c0d6c27ef

His eyes were red 1269a079de from the heat, and cfe4ca5382 his eyes were already fb44cc8cca moist. Sejin interpreted Woohyun’s ea8b027838 pitiful gaze as 3c514706d8 a plea for 4b5e3aeaef help.682ccfcabd676792

Instead, he smiled and moved 5762046295 closer. The Omega pheromones grew aadf12796c stronger, and Woohyun’s instincts 65d4cbe8f6 began to react. Unwanted and unintended 26d7d0719f desire pooled within 1d3ace25ff him, making him 019f49c9a4 frown, almost on f94ad880a7 the verge of 04e6a95ca2 tears.5dae5445a240c645

He blinked, and 2c47eb3686 suddenly he was ba5938cc64 leaning entirely on 4c9523433f Sejin, leaving the 8babce6e56 party. Woohyun wanted to distance himself bea4a67e5c from the Omega pheromones, but b74e9be159 without Sejin, he couldn’t take 1ede79ef16 a step.2d792d39fd238af6

Woohyun’s face and neck d827fbf9f7 were flushed with intoxication, 077623f60b excitement, and shame. He felt guilty for f7d99f8777 burdening Sejin, who was 0c698495af helping him.

Breathing was hard, and speaking 7ccb2ac76b was harder. Every part of him touching 48bef692cf Sejin felt hot. Blood rushed to his 94e100ff08 lower abdomen, and his 8b30c35ed0 vision blurred.

His vision blurred ea0993181d first, followed by a3db3c5662 his hearing. Woohyun couldn’t understand what bafe80c2dc Sejin was saying. As his fever spiked, his 67fcae5e13 consciousness began to fade.dc81efdc656af2ca

Once they reached the 6bd0e76f4d room, it would be 41165c1736 over, so he wanted 9ac0a0ad5f to tell Woohyun to 5aafc7d4df stop resisting. But supporting Woohyun was 27ab50474c exhausting, leaving him with 5c505f3ce7 no energy to speak.8fe8b435783d2637
