Chapter 40 - Secret boyfriend

A soft scent of rose filled his nostrils. Yunfeng froze for a second. his fingers tightly clutched the pillow in his hand. 'Wait… it's not perfume… its pheromone….'

a soft pillow hit him smack on his face.

"Got you, sucker!" Hana shouted giggling loudly.

Yunfeng looked around confusedly. It was clearly the scent of an alpha. And the alpha he was very familiar to him had that same pheromone.

no two alphas had the same scent. it was like a fingerprint. it was also used as an identifying factor in the future.

but in this timeframe, there was no such thing.

he hurriedly ran to the window and gazed out into the dark street.

A black car stood a bit far from their house. It was a Range Rover and it quite stood out in a small street.

Yunfeng squinted his eyes trying to get a good look inside. Sadly, the windows were tinted so he was not able to look in.

'Muchen? Is he here?'

He pulled out his phone and hurriedly made a call. 'Isn't he supposed to be in the hospital? Why is he running around?'

The call connected in a minute.

"h-hello…" a soft voice whispered.

Yunfeng felt his spine tingle listening to his melodious voice.

The rose scent became quite intense. Even from a street away he was able to sniff it so strongly.

'Fuck is he in a rut?' Yunfeng clenched the phone tightly. alphas in rut are harder to handle. Especially for an omega like him. They would become beastly and do beastly things.

His mind started to wander slightly into the 18+ thoughts.

"Yunfeng..." the soft voice called him doubtfully. "Is everything okay? Why did you call me so late?"

Yunfeng pulled him out of his dream-like state and gazed at the car outside his house. "I just wanted to hear your voice."

He also wanted to warn Muchen about his upcoming rut. It was not good for an alpha to be roaming around during their rut period without any inhibitors. They might lose control and attack someone.

'But there are no other omegas here, right? So, he might not attack anyone?'

He was not sure how it would work at this time. As for now, he and Muchen are the only omega and alpha he has met. If Muchen went crazy during his rut, he would only attack him.

'Shit his rut started and he came for me…' Yunfeng's eyes widened. He quickly slipped away from the window clutching the phone tightly. 'Fuck! my stupid body stop feeling so hot and bothered?'

It was like his own body was anticipating it.

the rough copulation that occurs during rut….

Yunfeng bit his lips. the countless wet dreams he had every night might actually come true.

'No! no! Snap out of it! who wants to get pregnant!'

Alphas during rut were…. Very fertile. Yeah, the omega will get pregnant without fail!

He did not wish to face the end of the world with a cub in his tummy. Oh no he didn't.

'Yes, I have to put some distance between us. I can't lose control!'

"Hey, who are you talking to." Hana scooted close and placed her ear close to the phone. "Girlfriend?" she mouthed.

Yunfeng pushed her away slightly and cleared his dry throat. "I... I was calling cuz I was bored. I'll talk to you later."

"Wait!" Muchen hurriedly called out to him as he was about to cut the call.

The shout was quite loud that Hana who was close by heard it.

Her eyes widened. "A boy?" she mouthed in shock.

Blushing, Yunfeng shoved a pillow to her face and pushed her away. "Get out!" he gestured to the door.

But to his dismay, she scooted even closer with a huge grin. "Ohh is that your boyfriend?" she mouthed excitedly.

Yufeng felt his face heat up extremely. It was highly likely that his face was completely red by now.

He pulled the blanket over his face, hiding his embarrassed state. "How is your health now?"

"I'm doing good. how is your arm?"

"It's completely healed now." He rolled his shoulders slightly.

"Oh, that's good. my biopsy came back negative. It's not cancer. They just said it was a mass growing in my stomach."

Yunfeng sat up straight. "Does it hurt?"

"Now, but it is quite uncomfortable." Like now. Muchen swallowed those words.

Right now, he was feeling a strange sensation in his stomach. He did not know why he was slightly dizzy and feeling restless.

a subtle orange scent was making him go crazy!

His own body was out of control. it was pulling him towards his house.

'God's sake… I'm completely floored. Why did I fall for a kid! a boy at that! I feel disgusting!' he hit his face on the steering wheel.

A loud honk rang out in the silent street.

He shot up stiffly. 'Shit.'

"Muchen?" Yunfeng whispered ever so softly.

"n-nothing. It must be my neighbors. They are quite... quite loud." He awkwardly tried to evade the topic. "Oh, how is your part-time job going on? Are you doing good? is anyone bullying you?"

"No." Yunfeng gazed out the window peering at the car with a smile. "It's going well."

Hana noticed his small move. She too noticed the car that stuck out like a sore thumb in their neighborhood. "Oh my god." She whispered under his breath. "He is here?!"

Yunfeng shoved her back. "Ah… I'll head to bed?"

"Yeah... you should. It's late." Muchen cut the call.

"He is here!" Hana shouted and ran to the door.

"Hana!" Yunfeng ran after her. he knew his sister like the back of his hand. She was running out the door to meet him. "Stop! hey!"

She rushed to the car and poked her head on the window.

"Fuck Hana! Go back inside!" he pulled her away from the car.

Muchen's wide eyes were seen clearly through the tinted glass.

Yunfeng awkwardly waved at him.

Mumbling something, Muchen lowered his head and banged it on the steering wheel again. A loud honk rang out.

"Oh my god!!!!" Hana screamed simultaneously.

Thankfully, the honk masked her scream.

Yunfeng knocked on the window.

Muchen lowered it without looking up.

"Don't stay up late. Get to bed," He whispered.

Without a word, Muchen drove his car out of the alley.

Hana still stood there like a frozen statue.

"What… how…. Why… HOW!!!!" she clutched his shoulders in a tight grip. "My Muchen, why you?"

Her words were incoherent but he could understand it.

"its… it's hard to explain."

"You better explain yourself you asshat! He is my precious Muchen!"

"MINE!" Yunfeng screamed without realizing it.

Eyes wide open he cupped his mouth close. "Fuck!" he dashed into the house.
