Chapter 27: The Incident

It felt closer in the sight, but further in the heart. Yamato still could not forget his guests on the day before. The images of Ryohei, the owner of the house he currently lived in, and Yuki, his fiancee, have been dancing in his sight. Yet he did not attempt on shooing it away.

It was precious. Two people who loved each other dearly. One was willing to do anything as long as they would not get separated, while the other one wept his eyes out because he knew their relationship was almost useless. Neither of them chose to give in their relationship despite the impossibility. Thinking thoroughly, it was just a result from a research on previous respondents.

Who could guess a pair of Beta and Omega might produce a new result in the end?

His feet led him to Yuki's house. How did he know? He was a doctor and they were becoming his subjects - he had their house address due to that. He had the urge to go visit Ryohei and Yuki by instinct, and he did not plan on doing anything on that day, so he found it would not hurt him.

Nevertheless what he has witnessed was crazy.

Yamato noticed the door was not even closed properly, as if either of them has purposely left it like that. Estimating Yuki must have done that, he then barged into the house and chaotically called Yuki.

"Yuki! Where-"

His sight landed on Yuki's exposed bedroom. It was almost night and the light source was not switched on, yet Yamato could see it clearly. He gasped in disbelief and rushed into the room to lend a hand.

"Yuki!"

The man who was pinning Yuki down startled by Yamato's cry. Yamato trembled in massive anger and seized the man away from Yuki. He shot death glare at the man, but then he loosened down.

"You!"

The man pushed Yamato's hand away and fled. Yamato still shivered due to shock and fury. He shifted to the unconscious Yuki on the floor, and knelt by him.

Pitiful. Very heart wrenching. Yuki's clothes were scattered everywhere, even the undergarments. He was completely naked, and there were spots of cums on his abdomen. Only by a glance, Yamato came with a conclusion - Yuki was raped. But he did not know since when that man has been there. Yuki remained quiet on the floor, not knowing whether he has passed out or he was asleep.

"W... Who?"

As Yamato bawled his eyes out, a soft voice was heard. It was Yuki's, indirectly meant he was still awake. However, he was worn out.

"Ryo- hei?" Yuki's voice was shaking. "Dear- Forgive- me."

Yamato saw Yuki trying to lift up his hand, but shivers held him down. Tears started streaming down his temples, believably engulfed by huge guilt.

Yamato took Yuki's hand and carefully squeezed it. "Yuki, it's me, Yamato. I came to visit you. But I'm sorry, I was late. Too late."

Nothing to be said. Yamato grabbed Yuki's whole body and hugged him. He cried while tightening his cuddle. From a very feeble body, Yuki slowly sniffled and sobbed. He wished he could react to the hug, yet all he could do was to let his tears rolling down his cheeks.

"Doctor..." Even Yuki has almost become speechless.

The incident has surely traumatized him. Yamato has been divulged to Yuki's previous job to add on the detail of their background, hence Yamato has been aware of Yuki's trauma. He never thought he would watch it almost happening with his own eyes. He even recognized the face of the doer.

"What is it, Yuki?" The snot blocked his breath, yet Yamato ignored it first.

Yuki's neck moved a bit. He must be gulping to clear his own airways. Yamato waited patiently as Yuki slowly lifted his hand to clutch on Yamato's shirt.

"Please... Don't tell- my dear- about this."

Yamato's widened eyes visualized his shock. "But why? He's your fiance. He has to know!"

The limbs have lost colour. Yuki was pallid and stiff like a corpse. He was frightened by the incident, plus he could not imagine how Ryohei would respond as it was disclosed to him. Would he be pleased by it?

The night has fallen. Ryohei was too engrossed opting out clothes for Yuki. While walking home after work, he passed by a newly opened suit store. It sold rental or custom made suits for any sizes. Ryohei saw a set in white, and imagined Yuki wearing it for their wedding. However, buying suits for both of them were a little too much since the price would be expectedly high, thus Ryohei looked around to find Yuki's size.

Due to the help of the shop assistant, Ryohei found two sets for each of them, but he did not rent them right away. They have not discussed regarding their wedding date, so he said to wait for his fiancee's approval. At least, he had his favoured design from the store.

"Oh no, I'm too late!" Ryohei gasped as he looked up the sky. It was totally murky and delaying more time there meant he would miss the subway. "Yuki must be mad at me."

One matter rose as he stepped into the house. Yuki's scent was filling the entire space, and it was quite suffocating. Ryohei liked it, but it was surprisingly thick as if they were on bed and preparing each other. There was no Yuki caught in his sight, thus he looked for his lover everywhere in the house.

"Oh, Ryohei!"

Someone came out of the kitchen, startling Ryohei. Ryohei rolled his eyes - of all human beings, seeing that crazy doctor was not in his life plan, yet he did. Yamato grinned ear to ear as he hopped to the bedroom.

"Yamato, why-"

"Tonight, the bedroom is a prohibited area for you," Yamato cut off, trying to retain Ryohei from entering the mentioned place by hindering the door, "Yuki is unwell, and he needs more rest."

"Wait a sec," Ryohei frowned and mimicked his uneasiness, "Yuki is sick?"

Yamato shrugged. "Apparently Omegas have their periodic heat. For your information, Yuki was having his heat. Don't ask me in detail since I don't know myself."

"In heat? What heat? It isn't good, is it?" Ryohei tried peeping on Yuki over Yamato's shoulder. "Should I go to the pharmacy?"

Yamato shook his head. "No need. You just need to stay by his side. He loves you very much."
