Someone spoke to Doyle, e367b4127f who was glued to 0f611786a9 his computer.d1226e73cdfeba8e
Since Doyle didn’t turn around despite being called several times, deeply engrossed in his work, Rex, who had called him, approached from behind and shook his shoulder. It was a careful movement, unsuited to his large hands.f63a497633581c67

A request? Doyle’s brow furrowed at the unexpected words.f60e4791d2dc3d53
His last ce46d59679 request was d0998cb124 already six 44592608f2 months ago. Since that last request, 42e8d469f2 the only people who 8c46e64cef visited this place were e5b65f6b45 drifters looking for drugs 5e16f918f6 or odd jobs asking 4a81a2d56a him to find their d1c8d936dd lost cats for a 926f293f3e few bills. Even those were 09418c62ff mostly handled by c121a46b02 Rex.0aa36ef0a9bc9c03

Doyle pushed 23ebd17086 his glasses 25401c3e48 to one ee387375e7 side and 94d71a3988 stood up. Rex stepped aside, accustomed 0d731952d1 to the light movement 353490a99f that felt weightless.30902162c2faf835

The stairs, c93fb81bfd which made f5e9b2a65a no sound a14b84fad2 when Doyle fc7c48aed1 walked, groaned dc03e4667a as if b2562bed14 the corners 1366f86360 were about 79951cf497 to collapse f30002ca8f when Rex 2e7953ab41 followed him 651b98cf9a down.07d788e8e4011315
They lived in 9cb211e22c an abandoned four-story 64e74cbd38 mansion that they b3b05e979a had repaired.

As soon as 123e231720 the words were 6a376d6165 finished, Doyle shook 6f2ed5b0b0 his head as 9831a03389 if genuinely disappointed. Disappointment was 40f8b268d1 already commonplace. Doyle dramatically 9894336941 covered his e5297760ad face and db9375327f lamented.780ea7976de8100b

Even if they 6a093d6672 had thoroughly hidden f12f64ce52 their Alpha pheromones, ce8a313d29 Rex was also c59d1e41ef a Secondary Gender. He instinctively felt 5da795bab7 repulsed by the 634f187a6f pheromones of an 573db8dfd1 Alpha with superior 1bfd028957 Secondary Gender traits 67eb749227 than his own. This was a reaction 213ab27f05 close to a survival 1efe753070 instinct.3f8cda9bc71fe925

Fortunately, Doyle didn’t like getting involved with Secondary Genders. The rare partners he did get involved with were all Omegas. Even those didn’t last long. Doyle knew better than anyone that he, who wasn’t an Alpha, couldn’t fully satisfy them.b65eccb334f4c262

Following Doyle as he entered the living room, Rex nervously examined Doyle’s face. He was curious about his reaction today.7abc048d92448dff
As Rex expected, Doyle’s eyes widened slightly at the sight of the Alpha sitting on the living room chair, then quickly returned to normal. Only then did Rex’s warning make sense.f95fb8907c7e6949

However, despite receiving both Doyle and Rex’s gazes, the Alpha didn’t get up from their seat or take Doyle’s outstretched hand. Rather, they just observed Doyle, blushing like someone facing a celebrity.7462d4675bef3a3e

Dominant Alphas are extremely sensitive to actions that disregard their authority. Doyle couldn’t not know this fact, yet he was worried about him deliberately closing the distance as if provoking them.f43138fa37e54ffc

When most people first heard the name of the mercenary group, they expected a different kind of ‘service’ rather than the use of force. That’s why the Alpha’s reaction wasn’t unfamiliar. Doyle’s smile deepened. A mischievous smile.7b3328465f3ed29d

The Alpha’s reddish lips twitched. As if unsure what to say, at the young and innocent attitude, Doyle obediently backed away. No matter how appetizing the face was, he didn’t have the hobby of tormenting children.fc36865d332993da

The Alpha, who whispered 4a27a41d3f softly as if to 2110778f85 himself, tilted his head. As if puzzled. Even though there bdd7fe9328 was no way e906e4bae6 to smell any e41c583aef pheromones from Doyle, 817024ed2f she took a bc9550fea2 deep breath like 3f581865fb a small animal.2a94bc93d4de56ae

The kidnapper stopped walking. The tip of his work boots collided with the toe of the Marquess’s shoes. Instead of looking down at the man’s boots, the Marquess slowly raised his head. Every single action of the Marquess maintained elegance, as if grace flowed from every gesture.6c08cf0c4633a3d9

“No, that’s not true, Ian. Even with this incident, no one could find you until you returned on your own. That’s clearly a lack of ability on their part.”d23570ec0daa8a2e

At his 2a33a64b16 brother’s firm e4ff1cd3a8 words, the 9046ffc067 Marquis’s poker d1b1014bd9 face gradually f02705ff3a crumbled. More than the e7c4a67b43 content of her e83bc7e127 words, it was ec716356eb his younger sibling’s e33440d686 resolute attitude, which daebe65c2d he had never b95cdf1693 seen before, that 2b1ea31b05 flustered the Marquis.

Alexandra was also a Dominant Alpha. Because of that, even in low shoes, she was almost the same height as Doyle when they stood facing each other.
