Josh was shocked and froze.

He felt the pungent smell of cigarettes belatedly. He must have gone out to smoke a cigarette. Isaac and Henry must be somewhere nearby. He thought so and quickly looked around, but the only person he could see was Chase.

Is he hiding somewhere that I can't see?

If it was Chase, he would have been annoyed and told me not to follow him. Then of course he would be hiding and guarding him.

In any case, it was difficult to move forward. If he went around behind him, he would be caught, and if he went forward, he thought of Henry who had been hit in the head with a cell phone in the same situation.

The only way left was to retreat. If this was the case, he would have to turn around and go in the opposite direction. Josh made his decision and took a slight step back. However, he was not so lucky.

Suddenly, Chase turned his head and made eye contact with Josh. For a moment, Josh froze.

He had been successfully avoiding him until now, but now that he was facing him in this situation, there was no way to run away. Josh looked at him, feeling a sense of despair inside.

The silence of the quiet garden hit him particularly hard. The noise coming from the mansion where the party was in full swing, and the faint cheers echoing from outside, just felt distant. The rustling of leaves as the wind blew across Josh and Chase was louder.

Ah.

Suddenly, a sweet scent mixed with the tip of his nose. It was Chase’s pheromone scent. When he realized it, his heart suddenly started pounding, but strangely, his mind became calm.

Chase was strangely silent. He didn’t throw anything, get annoyed, or even swear. Josh suddenly felt that he was very tired.

Did he run away after being hit by people?

The pale face revealed by the streetlight illuminating the garden was simply pitiful. The moment he saw that face, his heart started pounding like crazy. Why was the wind blowing at this moment, Chase’s hair was disheveled, and his downcast eyelashes cast long shadows?

His face flushed in an instant. Josh unconsciously covered his mouth with one hand. He barely managed to swallow his heavy breathing, and Chase turned his head as if he had heard it.

Their eyes met immediately. Chase’s eyes narrowed, and Josh stopped breathing.

Chase put the cigarette to his lips. As he inhaled a long stream of smoke, a red flame rose. He slowly exhaled the smoke and swept his disheveled hair with his long fingers holding the cigarette. Suddenly, he saw those fingers trembling slightly.

Ah, Josh sighed. He should have pretended not to know and just walked away. He regretted it later, but now that he had seen that face, he couldn’t turn back.

He knew that the guy was a fucking idiot, that he would swing his fists at any moment, and that he would make him feel bad if he opened his mouth.

Despite all this, Josh couldn't leave.

Chase suddenly smiled faintly. At the same time, Josh's heart started beating like crazy. His lips opened, and a voice tickling his ears whispered.

"Why don't you turn it off? You piece of shit."

At the same time, Josh quickly suppressed the anger that was rising in his chest as his heart stopped beating. There wouldn't be anyone in the world who didn't get treated like shit by this man. Josh answered coolly.

"It's my job to protect you."

Chase unexpectedly snickered as he recited the words he had rationalized for himself.

"You sound like a dog."

He muttered as if he was talking to himself, but he could tell that he was telling Josh to listen. Josh opened his mouth without thinking.

“You don’t like dogs, so should I just make it a cat?”

Chase immediately frowned and glared at him. Josh quickly smiled.

“I’m joking.”

“... ... .”

Of course, it didn’t work. Josh turned his head away, pretending not to notice the cold gaze.

“... ... .”

A faint murmur could be heard. The noise of the party and the cheers of people in the distance mixed together, but it was too weak to break the silence between them.

Phew.

Chase took another drag and dropped his cigarette on the floor. Josh watched him silently as he put out the embers with his shoe. Chase took his cigarette case out of his pocket, skillfully picked one up, and put it to his lips. Josh shook his head and refused the case that was readily offered to him.

“Oh, it’s okay.”

Chase withdrew his hand again, took out a lighter, and lit it.

“Why? You smoked it before.”

Chase asked, inhaling the smoke and causing a fire. Josh answered absentmindedly.

“Yes, I did, but now I’ve stopped... ... .”

For a moment, he stopped talking in surprise. Chase’s face came into his wide-open vision. His narrowed eyes were looking down at him with a strange smile.

“... ... .”

“... ... .”

For a moment, Josh was speechless and stared at Chase’s face. It was the first time his mind had been so blank.

You remembered? This man, me?

Josh didn’t know how to take this unbelievable fact. He slowly brought the cigarette to his lips. Even as he exhaled a long puff of smoke, Chase’s gaze was still fixed on Josh.

“... ... Since when, how.”

“Well.”

Josh barely managed to ask, but Chase just looked at him with a faint smile as if he found it amusing. Seeing Josh’s face, which clearly showed his bewilderment, he felt a deep sense of satisfaction. Has he ever felt this exhilarating? Chase leisurely asked back.

“Does that matter?”

“... ... .”

Josh kept his mouth shut. He was right. It didn’t matter at all when it started or how he knew. He was just curious.

Why does this man remember him?

When he recalled the memory of Chase moving his hips violently on top of him, the strange scent mixed with the scent of cigarettes stopped his thoughts. The familiar scent of Chase’s pheromones was mixed with the scent of another omega. For a moment, a corner of his heart cooled down.

Did he flirt with someone at the party?

Considering the promiscuous private lives of the super-alphas, it was quite possible.

Chase Miller was no exception. I saw him go to parties with my own eyes.

Josh thought he had made a reasonable inference. Nevertheless, he frowned because he just felt sorry for Chase, really.

Josh tried to ignore him and leave. Unfortunately, luck was not on his side. Chase’s gaze, which had been fixed on Josh, blurred. He seemed to frown and groaned. Josh blinked in surprise.

“Mr. Miller?”

He called urgently, but he didn’t answer. However, no matter how he looked, he was crouching in half, clutching his head with both hands. He rolled on the floor with one foot several times, as if he was angry about something, and then soon became quiet. However, he still held his head and crouched down.

What’s wrong?

The cigarette he was smoking was still on the floor. It was clear that Chase had dropped it. Josh hurriedly approached him.

“Mr. Miller, are you okay?”

Haa, haa.

Chase’s heavy breathing broke the silence of the quiet garden, resonating particularly loudly. The noise coming from the mansion where the party was in full swing, and the faint cheers echoing from outside seemed distant.

There was only an indeterminate silence between them. The rustling sound of leaves rustling as the wind blew across the empty space was unusually loud.

The pale face revealed by the streetlight illuminating the garden was similar to the sorrowful expression he had seen in the moonlight that night when he had cried and clung to him, yet different. Chase didn’t look as defenseless today as he did that day. He just looked tired. As if all the strength in his body had been drained.

His heart kept pounding. His dyed black hair flowed down his pale face, casting a shadow. But he didn’t even try to brush it off. Josh, who had impulsively raised his hand without realizing it, suddenly came to his senses.

I have to get out of here. Isaac and Henry must be watching from somewhere nearby. How strange and funny would it look to them, staring blankly like this?

But before Josh could come up with an excuse, Chase turned around first. When he suddenly left, a sense of relief and emptiness washed over him. But he didn’t have time to feel such meaningless emotions.

... ... Huh?

Chase stumbled for a moment. Fortunately, he regained his balance right away, but it was strange. Surprised, Josh approached him and asked.

“Mr. Miller, are you okay?”

Oh no, but it was too late. Josh quickly looked around. There was no sign of anyone. Surely Isaac and Henry couldn’t both be gone.

“Mr. Miller.”

He called his name again with an ominous feeling, but he couldn’t answer. Josh’s face turned pale for a moment at the sound of his heavy breathing.

“Mr. Miller.”

Haa, haa.

He called again, but Josh’s voice sounded distant to Chase. But in reality, it was as if it had been right next to him. His temples were pounding and his mouth was dry. His heartbeat seemed to be ringing right in his ears. He couldn’t open his eyes because of the dizziness and headache. In the end, Chase groaned and closed his eyes.

“Mr. Miller!”

Josh called his name again. When he barely opened his eyes, he saw him looking down at Chase with a worried face. Only after realizing that his gaze had changed did Chase realize that he had collapsed.

“Get out of here.”

Chase roughly pushed Josh's hand away as he tried to help him up. Josh immediately stepped back.

Chase glared at him with bloodshot eyes for a moment, then roughly got up. But that wasn't a good choice. His vision went black and he felt dizzy. He fell forward.

"Mr. Miller!”

He felt like he was going to slam his face into the floor. Even in the midst of extreme dizziness, Chase momentarily debated whether to cover his face or not. Soon he realized that it was a pointless worry. When he opened his eyes, Josh was looking down at him, holding his head in his arms.

“Mr. Miller, should I call an ambulance? Are you okay?”

Josh asked again. Chase blinked slowly. He realized belatedly that he was half-lying on his lap, almost leaning against his. But he didn’t even think about getting up. All he could do was lick his lips.

No.

“What?”

Josh brought his ear closer to the fading voice. Josh’s soft blond hair mixed with brown tickled Chase’s nose. He barely managed to answer through gritted teeth.

“Okay.”

Josh raised his head at the low words. Chase unconsciously stared at his face. Josh felt uncomfortable and worried as his unfocused gaze turned to him.

He quickly looked around, but there was no sign of anyone. Josh tried to contact Isaac or Henry in a hurry, but no one responded. He could no longer deny the fact that they were both gone at the same time.

Are these guys crazy?

He swore unusually and contacted Mark.

“Mark, can you hear me? It’s Josh. Mark!”

[... ... Uh, ... ... I mean, ... ... ge.]

The communication was poor. Josh suppressed his frustration and left a message instead, then quickly turned his attention back to Chase.

Haa, haa. Haa, haa.

His breathing was rougher than before. The pheromone scent flowing from his body was also getting stronger. Josh had doubted it, but perhaps his bad feeling was right. Chase was clearly horny. The evidence was his faintly flushed cheeks, the cold sweat on his temples, and his rapid breathing.

If he’s going to pull it out, he’ll pull it out properly.

Josh felt pathetic again at the pheromone scent that had clearly been with the omega just a moment ago. However, he couldn’t just waste time. Above all, Chase’s pheromone scent was getting stronger. If this continued, he would be swept away as well. He absolutely had to stop that.

Josh hesitated and glanced down at his waist. As expected, his front was swollen.

If he left it like this, it would be painful.

Chase tried his best to push Josh away even as his mind was wavering. He grabbed his shoulder and then his hand slipped, then looked down at Chase.

“Mr. Miller.”

He opened his mouth as calmly as possible. As if nothing had happened, as if he was trying to reassure Chase. But it was not a fear and disgusting of the chase. The body was not felt by the body of Josh, because he slipped his head on the floor. I was crazy about the fragrance of pheromone. There’s no way that scent can last this long. Why does it keep smelling like pheromone?

The culprit was obvious. His brain must have gone crazy from the pheromone scent. Otherwise, how could the scent still be there? It was just him and this guy, and this guy was clearly a beta. Chase clenched his teeth with conviction.

His crazy brain must still be recognizing the scent, even though it wasn’t there. Omegas always mess with Alphas’ minds.

I’m going to kill that omega.

The sound of his teeth gnashing and grinding resonated ominously. However, Josh wasn’t that scared of Chase, who was leaning his head on his shoulder, trembling slightly and breathing heavily. He just felt sorry for him. How often do extreme alphas show such weakness? He thought with a pitying heart. He felt this way because this guy was Chase Miller.

“Mr. Miller.”

Josh shook his head vigorously to calm his mind, which was constantly clouded by pheromones, and opened his mouth as calmly as possible.

“I think it would be a good idea to take some of the pheromones off. I don’t think we have time to call anyone right now, but can I help you?”

“What, help you?”

Chase stuttered between his rapid breaths. Josh hesitated for a moment, then made up his mind and held out his hand.

“Here.”

He grabbed the front of him on purpose. Chase swallowed sharply and threw his fist. It was amazing reflexes, even in this situation. But this time, Josh was able to avoid it.

“Oops.”

He failed to save Chase, who rolled to the ground again, but he barely managed to prevent him from hitting his head. Josh quickly reached out with his other hand and caught his head. Josh's hand hit the floor instead, but that was nothing. The problem was that Chase threw another punch at him right after. This time, Josh easily caught it.

His bloodshot eyes glared at him fiercely. His spine trembled. Josh barely managed to suppress his breathing, which was becoming rough with excitement.

"Are you okay?"

He felt Chase tremble faintly at Josh's question. Unable to suppress his anger, he opened his mouth.

"You fucking, asshole, how dare you... ..."

"Yes, I dared to touch my client's genitals. I'm sorry."

Even he heard that he didn't feel sorry at all. The explicit use of words was especially so. But that didn't matter. Josh was more focused on calming Chase down.

Chase's whole body was shaking as much as his voice was shaking now. He was able to take a look at him. I couldn't talk about it. He seemed to die like that. Josh finally couldn't stand it anymore and shouted at his stubbornness, not letting him touch that subject.

"What are you going to do if the pheromones build up and you lose consciousness?"

The reaction was immediate. It was the first time he had seen Chase's face harden like that.

Oh, the second time?

Josh suddenly thought. The face he had seen that day, when he had been suffering and talking in his sleep, strangely overlapped with his current face. Josh hid his bitter feelings at Chase's appearance, panting and trembling, and continued to speak coldly.

"I don't know what happened, but in his current state, it will be hard to hold out for long. If you don't want me to help, should I go find the person who was with you earlier? I don't know if I can make it in time."

That was all he could offer. Judging from the lingering scent of the omega, he must have been with them a little while ago, so it would be easy to find them. And it wouldn't be hard to persuade them either.

I thought it was simple, but Chase’s reaction was completely different from what I expected. He couldn’t speak, his face pale and his lips pursed. His gaze was still fixed on Josh, but it was far from glaring. Rather, Josh was taken aback by the shaking eyes that seemed to be frightened.

“Mr. Miller?”

Chase was startled by the cautious voice, as if his sanity had returned. Josh wanted to wait for his choice, but he didn’t think he could give him that much time. The thick scent of pheromones that had been surrounding him since a while ago had also endangered his sanity. If he was not careful, he might end up on top of Chase. That was absolutely unacceptable.

When he absentmindedly frowned, Chase gritted his teeth and covered his eyes with both hands.

“Damn... ...!”

A curse flowed out through his clenched teeth. Josh looked down at Chase, who had fallen on the grass, for a moment, and checked again.

“Can I take it off?”

Chase didn’t answer. He saw her biting her exposed lips hard. Josh wanted to press her chin to let it go, but he held back. There was no time to think about anything else. After confirming once again that there was no one around, Josh turned his gaze back.

He swallowed dryly once and put his hand on Chase’s lower body. He still had one hand supporting Chase’s head.

Chase just lay there with his lips bitten. Was this guy used to being the one receiving the service?

I guess so.

A feeling that was hard to express passed through a corner of his mind. Josh deliberately ignored it and fumbled with Chase’s belt with one hand. The clanking sound was particularly jarring to his ears. He deliberately untied it a little roughly to divert his attention.

Chase’s heavy breathing suddenly stopped. The sight of him barely breathing and trembling made Josh very excited, while also being pitiful. Realizing that his hands were shaking for a different reason than Chase's, he quickly clenched and unclenched his fists in the air.

Get a grip, get a grip!

He was planning to undo the buttons and unzip them in no time, but the bulging front was getting in the way. Josh paused for a moment, with a blank face, he pulled the zipper up and pulled it all the way down. Skillfully.

“... ... !”

A sharp breath was heard from above. It was Chase’s scream. He had scratched his front while pulling down the zipper. It wasn’t intentional, but it was inevitable, so Josh didn’t bother to apologize, but instead said something unnecessary.

“I’ll take it out.”

It was a dry word, as if he was going to get a muffin out of the fridge. But what Josh took out of his briefs was a baguette. And it wasn’t cut.

For a moment, Josh froze. How painful it must have been to have an erection like this. While sympathizing with Chase’s suffering, his heart grew cold at the thought of having something like this inside his body.

But he didn’t have time to hesitate for long. The hot object in his hand seemed like it would explode at any moment. It was thick enough that even Josh, who had fairly large hands, could barely hold on to it. His face turned red. The heart that had been cold became surprisingly hot.

He wanted to take out the candy and eat it, but he had no hands left. He had no choice but to force himself to inhale as little pheromone scent as possible.

Chase inhaled sharply, as if screaming. Josh was also startled and reflexively turned to look at him.

“Ugh, ugh, ugh... ... .”

A series of suppressed moans flowed out through his clenched teeth. Josh felt like he was tormenting him, but he had no guilt at all. Instead, Josh was embarrassed as his sadism boiled over him, wanting to push Chase even further.

Barely suppressing his impulse, he began to slowly stroke Chase’s genitals. Chase’s moans flowed out as if he was suppressing the inside of his throat.

“Ah, ugh... ... , ugh. Ha, ah.”

His rough breathing shook his entire body. Josh ignored him and focused on his hand, even though he didn’t need to since his eyes were covered anyway. The hot penis throbbed and pulsed under his thin palm. It was the penis that had been rubbing Josh’s insides mercilessly.

He stroked the thick stem skillfully as if he was skimming his own. The heavy penis gained more weight and swelled tightly in his hand. The pink glans turned as red as Chase’s face. Josh moved his fingers to massage the shaft and rubbed the split tip with his thumb.

“Ugh... ... !”

Chase swallowed his breath as if screaming and grabbed Josh’s arm. But he couldn’t bring himself to pull him away. Josh moved his hand, leaving Chase’s hand trembling slightly and just staying in that place.

He continued to stroke the tip with his firm fingertips while holding the shaft, and soon a clear fluid was left. A muffled gasp and a moan flowed out from deep in Chase’s throat.

Twisting his waist, he grabbed Josh’s arm urgently, released it, and grabbed it again repeatedly. His swollen glans was soaked with bodily fluids and glistened. He felt like he was going to cum soon.

Haa, haa.

Josh’s breathing also quickened. His lower body throbbed and became wetter little by little. Even though it had already been several years, his body seemed to remember that night. Josh was taken aback by his body’s reaction to accept Chase regardless of his will.

He had masturbated occasionally, but this was the first time he had done it to someone else. He had never imagined holding someone else’s penis in his hand and shaking it. Josh had never fantasized about a man in the first place.

But even so, Chase’s rough moans and breathing that continued to resonate now made him unbearable. He was already going crazy because of the pheromones, and this man seemed to be trying to kill Josh.

If he could, he wanted to take his hand that was supporting Chase’s head off right away and rub his own. No, that wasn’t enough. If he could grab Chase’s dick and his dick at the same time and rub them together, oh, just thinking about it made his brain tingle.

Josh moved his hand urgently. Let’s finish this quickly. If he didn’t, he didn’t know what he would do. Yes, he should sing. Oh, can you see it, between the dawn and the twilight... ... .

He tried hard to recall the national anthem that he had sung so many times in the military, but the lyrics were really ridiculously unconnected. He must have sung it at least a few hundred times, to be honest. Ah, damn it!

Josh’s hand accelerated and quickened. Chase let out a series of screams, his breathing rough as if he had lost his mind.

“Ugh, ugh... ... . Ah, haa... ... ha, ugh!”

With a sudden scream, his hand suddenly became soaked. Josh realized that he had squeezed him too roughly.

He was about to say, “I’m sorry,” when he stopped looking. Chase had already taken his hand away from his face and was lying on the floor, blinking. His shoulders were heaving with his heavy breathing and his chest was heaving up and down rapidly.

He didn’t seem to realize what was happening at the moment. Chase was still dazed from the exhaustion after ejaculation, his eyes still unfocused and fixed on a distant object, breathing heavily.

Semen was dripping down the corner of his mouth. And it wasn’t just there. He was panting, spilling his fluids all over his body. Josh thought he should wipe it away, but he didn’t want to.

If only he could take this man to bed and kiss and fuck him all night long.

It was such a strong temptation. He almost did it.

Chase’s bloodshot eyes were faintly wet. He seemed embarrassed and uncomfortable by the situation. He might have panicked. In any case, he was clearly anxious.

Of course, lying in the garden and ejaculating on someone else’s hand.

His distorted face clearly showed his self-loathing. He couldn’t hide his painful expression mixed with self-loathing. Seeing him bit his lips and close his eyes with heavy breathing, Josh felt sorry for lusting after him.

Josh held back his boiling lust and instead leaned down to him in an extremely gentlemanly manner. Their lips touched and parted, but of course not on his lips. Josh kissed his forehead gently as he had done to Emma or Pete, and smiled affectionately as he looked down at Chase, who blinked absentmindedly.

“It’s okay.”

Chase just stared blankly at him at his quiet whisper. Josh kissed him again, this time on his cheek.

It tasted faintly unfamiliar. He realized later that some of Chase’s semen had seeped into his lips, even though he hadn’t intended to. But it was an absurdly small amount to tell exactly what it tasted like.

Feeling regretful, Josh smiled at Chase again. Chase just blinked and showed no reaction. Maybe he was in another panic.

Josh forced himself back to reality and got up. Then he did what he should have done but hadn’t. He took a handkerchief out of his pocket and wiped the semen off Chase’s face. Fortunately, he had gotten into the habit of carrying a handkerchief while raising Pete. Josh carefully wiped Chase’s face with a clean cloth.

Chase didn’t move as if it was natural. Josh continued to do his work silently. He roughly wiped the semen off his clothes and came down, and Chase’s erection, still erect, came into view. As if one ejaculation wasn’t enough.

“Okay.”

Chase immediately spat out as Josh tried to grab it again. His usually sensitive and irritated voice was completely relaxed. The penis was still there, but the crisis seemed to have passed. It would subside on its own after a while. Unless something particularly stimulating came up. Josh answered nonchalantly.

“I’m just going to clean it up. I have to get dressed.”

And he grabbed the penis in a really businesslike manner. It was a far cry from the delicate touch he had just had, a truly indifferent attitude. He had no choice but to act as coolly as possible. Wrapping the penis in a handkerchief and roughly wiping it, Josh couldn’t help but look at Chase’s thing this time, even though he didn’t feel like it.

Damn, why is this kid’s dick so pretty?

He couldn’t help but swear in admiration. It was thick and big, but it stretched out without any bending. And the pink glans that was still wet was perfect.

Of course, since I can’t tan here.

Even while thinking that, Josh wanted to put it in his mouth. Normally, he would have thought it was dirty to bite a man’s penis, but the one in front of him was an exception. He couldn’t forget the feeling that remained on the tip of his thumb. It was really, so desirable, hard, and even more so, lovely.

But that was absolutely not allowed. Chase wouldn’t allow it, and he didn’t have the confidence to handle it. After silently cleaning up the rest, Josh lay down on the grass. Just like Chase.

Chase, who had been closing his eyes for a while, lifted his eyelids. When he slowly turned his gaze, their eyes met. The two of them didn’t move at all.

Her deep purple eyes, filled with the night sky, were looking at him with endless starlight. And below them, the sharp bridge of her nose and her dimly parted red lips came into Josh’s sight one by one.

Suddenly Josh thought.

How could I not kiss this pretty face?

He raised his hand. He gently stroked her cheek, but Chase didn’t move. Josh raised his upper body, meeting her gaze with purple eyes fixed on him.

The intention was clear. Chase could have easily avoided it. He could have sworn at her or thrown a punch like he usually did.

But he didn’t do anything. He just watched Josh’s neat face approaching him.

Josh’s eyelids slowly lowered. His golden eyelashes, the same color as his hair, came into Chase’s sight. Just as he was thinking about kissing his eyelids, his breath touched Chase’s lips.

But at that moment, a sudden sound of footsteps knocked them back to reality. Josh immediately got up and stood up. Amazing reflexes chase was bewildered. Josh left him alone and stared at the direction of the sound before shouting.

“Mark, what’s going on?”

A cheerful voice followed.

“Oh, Josh. You were in this place. I kept looking for you! No one contacted you, where did you go, really? What about Isaac and Henry?”

Josh approached him to answer his urgent question, catching his gaze so that he couldn’t see Chase.

“I didn’t see you. What’s going on?”

“I missed C, did you see him?”

“Ah.”

Josh nodded.

“Don’t worry, I came out because I said I was going to have a quick smoke. I told you not to come near me, so I was hiding and watching.”

“I see. What was that you called me earlier?”

“Oh, I was wondering for a moment, but I figured it out. Don’t worry about it.”

Even he was amazed at how easily he lied. Mark nodded, believing the words.

“Mr. Pitman is out of the room because something came up. The remaining guests are asked to enjoy themselves. What should we do? Are you going to ask C?”

It was obvious that he wanted her to do so. Josh readily agreed.

“Okay. I’ll check and get back to you right away.”

Instead of telling her to go, he made a slight gesture. Mark soon left.

Josh, who had been standing there for a while, looked around, finally sighed and relaxed his shoulders. When he immediately went back, he was still lying there. Still not moving a finger.

Josh struggled for a moment. He felt regretful about the timing just now. If only he could kiss those lips again.

But Chase thankfully didn’t give him that chance. He suddenly got up as if he had come to his senses. This time, Josh was the one who was behind in his reaction. Chase brushed his hair and clothes nonchalantly. Josh got up awkwardly, embarrassed.

In fact, from the man’s perspective, it was more surprising that he didn’t hit him right now. If it were his usual personality, he would have been furious and done something because he didn’t ask him to do something. Even if it was something he had agreed to, if he felt different now, he would have been able to vent his anger. On top of that, he felt a chill down his spine when he realized that he had stopped kissing him.

I almost died.

Josh suddenly became calm when he realized that this man had truly almost killed him. However, even though he had already returned to reality, he couldn’t take his eyes off Chase.

The blush that had not yet subsided remained on his cheeks. Even his languid expression after ejaculation was enough to drive Josh crazy.

His lower body, which had barely calmed down, responded. Embarrassed, Josh took a deep breath and forced his gaze elsewhere. He swallowed his heavy breathing, and suddenly Chase turned his head.

To be exact, it was just a quick glance, but Josh was so shocked that his heart almost stopped for a moment.

Fortunately, there was no situation where he needed CPR. Chase immediately turned around and walked away. Josh followed him quickly, and belatedly remembered.

“If you’re going back now, I’ll prepare a car.”

“Do it.”

Chase said briefly as if throwing out a word. Josh contacted Mark behind him as he started walking with long strides. After saying that, he followed Chase again, and the events just before seemed like a dream.

But it was real. As proof, there was a handkerchief in his pocket that he had used to wipe Chase’s semen. It had already hardened to a certain degree, and it felt stiff.

Josh absentmindedly grabbed the handkerchief and slowly opened it.

Maybe I just wanted to do this.

He thought again.

Maybe I just wanted to fool this man with plausible words.

Chase continued walking without looking back once. A cold expression on his side, completely different from the one he had been distorting while trying to suppress his excitement, flashed into his vision. Josh suddenly wanted to see that face again.

“Oh, Mr. Miller.”

He returned to the mansion, but he didn’t stop. Pitman’s butler, who had found Chase, greeted him, but he just passed by. He really ran forward like a rhinoceros.

“Mr. Miller, wait a minute!”

Josh, who was following him, shouted urgently. Josh jumped in front of him, who was still walking quickly.

“Go when the car is ready. It’ll be over in no time.”

Chase finally stopped and looked down at Josh. His breathing was just as ragged as Josh’s.

"Wait," he said. Josh said, “I would like to contact you.” He did not have a somewhere in his response. “You little shit, who are you touching right now... ...!”

He gritted his teeth, but it was too late. Josh had already contacted Mark and informed him of the situation. Chase glared at him with a frown as he asked if he was ready to leave. Josh turned around and opened his mouth.

“Okay, let’s go.”

Chase took a step back in surprise. Josh tilted his head in confusion. Chase himself didn’t understand why he did that. Right now, he thought his condition was terrible. He thought to himself, running his trembling hand through his hair.

If he didn’t go back right now, there was no telling what would happen.

“Mr. Miller, is something wrong again?”

Josh asked. He looked up at Chase seriously, as if he was genuinely worried. But Chase had no intention of answering truthfully. He rubbed his bloodshot eyes nervously and spat out.

“Shut up. Hurry up and show me around. What can someone like you do, you fucking punk?”

“... ... Okay.”

Josh didn’t ask any more questions and strode ahead down the long hallway. Chase frowned and forced himself to breathe harder and faster, taking long strides as usual.

When he finally made it out the front door of the damned big mansion and back outside, Chase thought he could finally leave this damn place. It caught him off guard for a moment, and he opened his eyes wide in surprise when he heard an unexpected sound.

“Mr. Miller?”

Josh called his name again. But what Chase heard was different.

No way, no way.

Chase stood there, half in doubt, unable to move. A cold sweat ran down his back. While he was doubting his ears, a sharp barking sound came from somewhere, as if mocking him.

“... ... !”

Chase’s whole body froze in an instant. He stood there frozen in place, and after a few seconds, he was finally able to breathe. However, he could not hide the fear in his eyes that were shaking anxiously.

“Oh, I’m sorry. Did you get startled?”

Pitman’s bodyguard approached and apologized.

“We released a few guard dogs for the party. If paparazzi or uninvited guests sneak in and cause trouble for the guests, it would be a big deal. They are well-trained dogs, so don’t worry. They won’t attack easily or anything... ... . Mr. Miller? Are you okay?”

He called Chase’s name again as if he was puzzled. Only then did Chase startle and come to his senses. The dog barked again, but he couldn’t see where the dog was.

He looked around once and ran his trembling hands through his hair. He let out a short sigh as if he was exhaling his choked breath.

Chase suddenly felt dizzy and closed his eyes and tilted his head back. He waited for a while for the dizziness to subside, and unlike before, he moved his body slowly as if he was somewhat lethargic.

Josh, who had hurriedly opened the back door of the car and waited, stopped when he saw Chase leaning his head against the car window and closing his eyes as soon as he sat down.

As he watched him for a moment, Chase’s breathing became ragged again and blood rose to his pale cheeks. Josh’s brow furrowed.

“Mr. Miller, are you okay?”

Josh asked, but in fact, it was not the time to worry about others. He himself was on the verge of death because of Chase’s pheromones that had been flowing in since a while ago. He had to go back, but Isaac and Henry were still nowhere to be found.

Chase rudely untied his bow tie around his neck, feeling suffocated. Josh quickly backed out of the car when he saw him grabbing the buttons on his shirt. Chase quickly opened the refrigerator door and took something out, not caring about Josh’s reaction.

When he saw him pouring the medicine in a small bottle into his mouth and gulping down water, a familiar voice came from behind him.

“What happened? You guys.”

At that moment, Mark muttered a curse and looked around. Josh quickly looked away from Chase, held his breath, took out a candy, and chewed two at once. Just as Mark, who was furious, was about to contact him again, Isaac showed up with amazing timing.

“Sorry, I have something to do.”

Mark turned his gaze to Henry, who followed Isaac's apology.

"You two have something to do at the same time?"

Isaac looked embarrassed but said nothing. Henry was the same. Mark groaned and spat out in a rough voice.

"Go back and talk. You two.

“Be prepared.”

It was ridiculous to leave during security. Josh thought that they deserved a pay cut or even worse punishment.

But Isaac and Henry still didn’t say anything. Josh was dumbfounded by their lack of excuses, but work was the priority right now. On top of that, Chase wasn’t in good shape. Mark knew that too.

“Everyone, hurry up and go.”

Mark called Laura instead because he didn’t have time to go back to find his secretary. After telling her to go home separately, Mark headed straight to the driver’s seat of the car in front.

Josh headed to the car behind, and habitually sat in the driver’s seat, but he soon regretted it. However, when he got out, Isaac was already in the passenger seat. Henry got into the car in front and left without even having time to exchange hands. Josh had no choice but to follow and start the car.

He just kept his eyes fixed on the front and kept driving. There was silence in the car, but Josh didn’t dare open his mouth. Isaac was the one who broke the silence.

“Why are you covered in so many pheromones?”

Josh unconsciously turned his gaze to him at the unexpected question, then quickly turned it back to face him.

“What are you talking about?”

He unconsciously dismissed the question. Of course, he had noticed the meaning of the words. It was because the wetness between his legs had been so uncomfortable that he was going crazy. Isaac said with a serious face.

“It’s like C’s pheromones... ... . I can smell a lot of them, from you. What happened? Did something happen while I was away?”

His voice was filled with anxiety. Josh became nervous and answered bluntly.

“If you were worried, you shouldn’t have left.”

Isaac hesitated. Since he had told the truth, Josh had no intention of apologizing. Instead, he opened the car window and a strong wind blew in. The pheromone scent seemed to be leaving his body a little. Isaac, who seemed to be thinking for a moment, opened his mouth.

“I was going to come back soon... ... Sorry.”

“... ... .”

“I didn’t know you’d run into C.”

This time, Josh answered dryly, unable to understand the hidden meaning in her words.

“I was just looking around.”

“... ... You smell all like C’s pheromones.”

Isaac muttered again. Josh still said it casually.

“Go wash up.”

He felt impatient because the car in front was driving too slowly. He held back his fingers from naturally tapping the steering wheel, which he had to do unnaturally. Josh tried to act as calm as possible on the outside, but he frantically thought about the suppressant he had hidden.

An awkward silence flowed. Josh took the initiative, fearing that his impatience would be revealed.

“You’re both going to get in big trouble with Mark.”

“Yeah.”

Isaac answered.

“I guess so.”

But he was still dry. Josh’s mind was soon filled with only thoughts about the suppressant. He didn’t say a word after that, but Isaac was the same.

*@Punhap*

As soon as he got out of the car, Isaac was dragged away by Mark. Henry was the same. Seth, who was guarding the mansion, looked at Josh as if asking what was going on, but he didn’t have time to explain.

Josh didn’t remember how he got back to his room. He had been holding on somehow, but now he was at his limit. As soon as he closed the door behind him, his breathing became ragged and his body felt hot. He quickly searched through his luggage, took out the medicine he had hidden deep inside, and ran to the bathroom connected to the room.

Every time he breathed, it felt like Chase’s pheromones clinging to his skin were entering his body. His reasoning quickly disappeared, and his mouth became parched. He quickly turned on the faucet in the sink. He brought the cold water to his mouth without even having time to get his hands on it. He gulped down the water while moving his throat noisily, but the heat did not subside. Josh immediately poured the medicine he was holding in his hand.

When was the cycle?

His temples were throbbing and pounding. He tried to recall his vague memories, but he couldn't remember properly. If Chase's pheromones stimulated his cycle earlier, it would be a big deal. Just like that day.

He didn't know he would suddenly be covered in pheromones like this.

He quickly took off his clothes, hoping the medicine would take effect. He had to wash the pheromones off his body quickly. If he didn't, he would go out and find someone to spend the night with. Of course, that was something that should never happen.

Josh turned on the water in the shower and sat down. As the cold water poured down his entire body, he felt a reflexive chill, but it was better.

When he briefly regained his senses and let out a trembling sigh, he suddenly realized that there was someone else there besides him.

“... ... ?”

He slowly raised his gaze and stopped. A man with surprised eyes was standing there looking down at him through the open door.

It was Seth.

“... ... .”

For a while, the two of them were silent. Josh just stared at him, panting. It seemed like countless words were floating around in his head, but none of them were actually useful.

Seth was the first to come to his senses. He blinked a few times and opened his mouth, but it took him a while to make a sound.

“Oh, um... ... So, I was going to ask you what happened at the party... ... .”

No matter how great the incident was, it wouldn’t be as surprising as what was happening right now. His expression said it all. Josh barely swallowed the saliva that had gathered in his mouth. An unusually loud throaty sound echoed through the awkward silence. Ahem, Seth finally spoke, clearing his throat.

“Are you okay? Should I tell Mark that you’re not feeling well and that you’re resting in your room?”

“Why? I just have a headache.”

Josh tried to pretend not to care. He felt a sting inside because his voice was unusually hoarse. But Seth answered in his usual businesslike manner.

“You smell like pheromones right now.”

Josh froze. Seth continued speaking nonchalantly, looking down at his frozen face.

“What happened? Did you miss your medication when you usually don’t? Or is it time for your cycle? If you’re on your cycle, I can’t help you, so I’ll sleep somewhere else.”

He was just listing countermeasures so calmly. Josh, who had blinked in confusion, swallowed again. This time, his mouth was completely dry and nothing could be swallowed. Seth spoke instead of Josh, whose mind was in a mess.

“I happened to see the medicine in your bag.”

“... ... When?”

Seth frowned as if trying to recall his memories at Josh who barely managed to speak.

“Three or four years?”

That long.

For a moment, Josh was dumbfounded and just opened his mouth. Seth continued, looking down at him who was blinking blankly.

“There’s no need to tell you that I know. You don’t necessarily tell me that you know that I’m an alpha.”

He was a little more talkative than usual. Of course, it was true, but that didn’t mean the shock went away. Josh tried to gather his wits and opened his mouth.

“Aside from you, who else knows?”

Was it a waste of effort? Surely not everyone knew.

If that was the case, how ridiculous had I been?

When I felt empty inside, Seth said.

“Don’t worry, it’s just me.”

“How can you be sure?”

He answered the question calmly, expressing his doubts.

“If Mark knew, he wouldn’t have brought you here. He would have chosen the request carefully. Isaac is dull, so of course he wouldn’t know, and Henry.”

Seth shrugged.

“You don’t care about others.”

Josh was speechless because every word was correct. Seth readily suggested a solution to Josh, who just blinked silently.

“I think it’d be better if you didn’t come out today. I’ll sleep in the empty room too. I’ll tell Mark that you have a cold, so he knows that. Okay?”

Josh nodded, still feeling dazed. Seth nodded and was about to leave when he belatedly remembered and asked,

“How long is the cycle? Should I take my luggage?”

“No, it’s okay.”

Josh finally came to his senses and answered.

“It’s not that the cycle came, it’s because of C’s pheromones. I took the medicine, so I’ll be okay if I wash up and rest.”

“Yeah, that’s good.”

And he was about to leave. Josh hesitated and opened his mouth again.

“Seth.”

Seth turned his head at the sound of the call and blinked. Josh spoke with difficulty.

“Are you okay? Even if I’m an omega.”

Seth tilted his head.

“What does it matter?”

“So... ... .”

“Um, Josh scratched his head.

“Omegas are usually avoided in this industry. Things like this happen.”

“That’s true.”

Seth said plainly as usual.

“But you’re you.”

To Josh who was puzzled, Seth continued casually.

“Is there a member as reliable as you? Mark has to lead the whole group, so when something happens, he falls behind first. Isaac is diligent but weak at improvising, and Henry... ... is too capricious. It’s not easy to control.”

He frowned briefly and then cleared his throat.

“You’re quick on the uptake, good at shooting, and good at physical combat, so I feel much more secure.”

“Uh... ... thank you.”

Josh blushed in embarrassment. Seth added after seeing him.

“You’re also very comfortable when you’re hunting.”

“... ... .”

“Let’s stop by Miami after work and have fun. Show off your skills after a long time.”

He laughed briefly and was about to leave. Josh asked absentmindedly.

“What about your girlfriend in Boston?”

Seth paused for a moment and answered without looking back.

“We broke up.”

Before he could even apologize, he left. Left alone, Josh sat there blankly, blinking. He still had the fever, but the medicine was starting to kick in, so it wasn’t bothering him as much as it had before. He barely managed to get up, staggering, and let out a trembling sigh.

It was dangerous.

Getting caught

How lucky it was Seth. This was something to be thankful for. Josh washed himself longer and more thoroughly than usual under the cold water of the shower. He rubbed the shower gel over and over again, just in case there was even a little bit of pheromone left.

When he came out after washing for a long time, his body really felt like he had a cold. He searched the cupboard, took out some cold medicine, and poured it into his mouth. Unable to bear the sudden fatigue, he collapsed on the bed and fell asleep immediately.
