《WOUNDED EGO SIDE STORY: An Alpha's Dilemma》


 SIDE STORY: 1ST EGO

    AKI


    IZUMI Aki, a 32-year-old Alpha doctor. If I have one biggest problem in my life... that would be the fact that I was born with feminine looks! And it ticks me, a lot!


    While growing up, I was struggling with my height and body development. Instead of having a big build and defined facial features, I ended up being always mistaken as an Omega. People around me kept teasing me, telling me to double check my test results. Even my parents could not believe their eyes when I grew up into a beautiful man. Having good looks when you''re an Alpha is not bad but in my case, I had a hard time proving myself. So, when I became a doctor, I started to gain respect and acknowledgment from people around me.


    But recently, I realized that it was not what I really wanted.


    "Chihiro, cancel my meeting with Khan today. I have something else to do tonight," sabi ko sa isang dambuhnglaki na may balingkinitang bt at magulong buhok.


    Awtomatiko namang lumiwanag ang mukha nglake nang makita ako. "Opo, sensei!" kaagad niyang tugon at nangiting parang bata na nanalo ng papremyo sa isang pa-birthday.


    Siya si Hanamichi Chihiro, 22 years old. Siya ang bago kong secretary. Nandito siya upang kumpletuhin ang OJT experience na kinakangan niya upang maka-graduate ito ng kolehiyo.


    Sa una naming pagkikita ay namangha ako sa tay niyang height atki ng katawan. Nainggit ako dahil wng kahirap-hirap niyang naangkin ang ganoong features at naturalng daw siyang lumaki nang lumaki. Mukha siyang tanga at pging lutang pero masipag si Chihiro. Lahat ng ipinapagawa at inuutos ko sa kanya ay sinusunod niya. Kung may problema man ako kay Chihiro, iyon ay ang masakit na katotohanang isa siyang Omega!


    Hindi ko lubos maisip na mas tinalo pa ako ng isang Omega sa pagkakaroon ng m-Alpha na katawan! ng na ng ako kapag nalapit kami dahil sobrang hta ng pagkakaiba naming dwa pero salungat ang pinaparating sa akin ng aking sekretarya.


    "Sensei, mag-iingat ka sakad mo mamaya. *Suki desu [I like you]!" ani Chihiro sabay ngiti ng matamis.


    [He is that kind of guy!] Sigaw ko sa isipan sabay iwas ng tingin sa kanya habang nagba-blush ng bongga.


    I couldn''t decipher how he manages to tell me those words every single day. Para bang naka-set na ang utak niya na sabihan ako ng mga katagang iyon sa tuwing paalis na ako o ''di kaya ay may agarangkad. Aside from being creepy, it''s just way too blunt!


    "Ah, mm..." alingan kong sagot bago nakad pbas ng clinic. "Huwag mong kalimutang sabihan si Khan at magsara ka na pagkaalis ko," habol ko pang pala.


    "Opo, sensei! Bye!" masayang-masaya niyang tugon at hindi ko na siya sinagot, sa halip ay winagayway kong ang aking kamay bago tuluyang umalis.


    ?


    .


    Bi akong dinw ng pagkauhaw kaya minabuti kong huwag na munang makipagkita kay Khan. He used to regrly visit my clinic for pheromone shots pero sim noong maging mates na s ng kanyang fated pair na si Okuda Ryuichi ay dumng na ang pagpunta niya sa clinic. Atlo na itong dadng dahil mayroon na sng anak ngayon.


    [And tonight, I want to clear my mind and think of nothing else but sexual entertainment,] I helplessly thought while putting on a bitter expression on my face.


    I slowly picked my phone from my jacket''s pocket then dialed someone''s number. Mabilis namang sinagot ng nasa kabng linya ang tawag ko. "Hello? Napatawag ka?" bungad ng isang boses sa kabng linya. It was a man''s voice that was a little husky and raspy to the ears.


    Napangiti naman ako nang bahagya. "I need somepanion tonight," pasimple kong tugon at narinig kong natawa anglaki sa kabng linya.


    "Okay. Tell me the ce and I''ll meet you there," sang-ayon kaagad nglaki saka ini-end ang tawag.


    I texted the guy that I just called, gave him the address of the love hotel, at lugar kung saan kami magkikita bago isinilid muli sa jacket ko ang aking cellphone. Isang mlim na buntong-hininga naman ang pinakawn ko bago ako napating sa kngitan.


    "It sure is starry tonight," I said to myself while gazing at the dazzling starlight that reflected on my eyes. It was so beautiful yet my heart felt so empty.


    Pagkarating ko sa love hotel, the man I was supposed to meet was already at the entrance, probably waiting for me. Nangiti ito nang mapuna ako at tinangkang bigyan ako ng halik sa aking pisngi but I quickly gave him an intimidating look before he could even do so.


    He was taller than me with great body physique na saktong sa muscles. He told me that we were around the same age but I doubt that he was a year or two older. And he was an Alpha.Content is property of N?velDrama.Org.


    "Shall we go inside?" nakangising yaya nito sa ''kin.


    "Shut up. Follow me and let''s make this quick," inis kong baling sa kanya at naunang pumasok sa hotel. Kumuha kami ng room, nag-request ng isang bote ng wine at nag-usap sandali before going to the main course.


    This man was just one of my many sex friends. All of them were around my age or older and they were all Alphas. I would call them when I was feeling down or frustrated over something. All we ever had was physical rtionships, nothing more. Besides, majority of these stupid Alphas already have mates but they were bastard motherfuckers who loved screwing around, trying bizarre things while enjoying sex.


    And I was stupid enough for enjoying their stupidity, as well.

    .


    "Did something happen?" bing tanong sa akin ng kasama ko ngayon. We''re both naked now and a little drunk.


    "Why do you ask?" I said and positioned myself on top of him while sloppily stroking my cock that was already soaked in my own pre-cum.


    "Dahil tinawagan mo ako. You only call me when you are frustrated about that Omega that you are in love with," aniya habang taimtim na nakatitig sa hubad kong kabuuan. I even caught him secretly lick his lower lip in an erotic way. I scoffed then chuckled. "So, may pakim ka na ngayon kung ano ang rason ko kapag tatawagan kita?" asik ko sa kanya.


    "Not really," tanggi niya at pagkatapos ay hinapit ng hipo ang pagklake ko.


    I clicked my tongue before raising my hip a little. Using my right hand, I grabbed the guy''s cock then slowly, I put it inside my asshole. "Aah..." I sweetly let out a moan as my hole slowly widened to his shape, making me shudder all over. The guy then grabbed both of my butt cheeks and squeezed them tightly, bringing a spine-tingling sensation to my body and I started to get excited from the inside.


    "Start moving your ass, bitch," sabik nitong utos sa akin at mas humigpit ang pagkakapisil niya sa puwet ko.


    I granted his silly request and started raising my hips up and down. "Aah... Mmfgh... Ahh..." I couldn''t help but moan because in this position, his dick would reach my deepest parts.


    We were both Alphas but our bodies were far different. Having this feminine looks and body that looked more like that of an Omega, I couldn''t also deny the fact that I was born a *Neko [the one who takes the female role in sex between men].


    And this was one of my darkest secrets.


    "Can you feel it, Aki? My dick is being devoured by your boy pussy!" mswang saad ng katalik ko habang nakangisi itong parang manyak na ulol.


    "Aah! You fucker, call me ''Aki'' again and I''ll fucking kill you. Aah..." umuungol na banta ko sa kanya pero hindi ito natinag bagkus ay mas pinatindi nito ang sarap na nararamdaman ko nang sabayan niya ang bawat gw ko. "Hyaah! Aah! Ngh... Aah... Fuck! Ahh..."


    Just a heads up:  is the only ce to read theplete version of this book for free. Don''t miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey!


    "You''re really beautiful, Aki..." heplimented with his eyes burning with lust while stroking my face with his free hands.


    "I said don''t-Aah!" Hindi ko na nagawang ituloy ang nais kong sabihin dahil mas nangibabaw na ang sarap na natatamasa ng aking katawan sa mga sandaling ito.


    I let all of my frustrations leave my mind and focused on pleasuring myself with this Alpha cock that I loved so much. I desperately relied on to this man as I cried and moaned, begging for his affection to be rendered and focused onto me - even if it was just temporary.


    [Just tonight... Just tonight I want to forget that I just lost the one I loved to another Alpha...]


    "Aki, I''m almost cumming!" gigil na saad nglaki at nagsimng tumindi ang tensiyon ng paggw niya sa loob ko.


    Napakapit naman ako sa kanyang balikat, ramdam na mpit na rin akongbasan. "Ahh! Cum inside me! Let it all out inside!" gigil ko ring pakli habang bumubuhos na ang mga luha ko sa magkahalong sakit at sarap. "Fuck me! Fuck me, Khan!" Kasabay ng pagkakasambit ko ng pangn ni Khan ay sabay kaming nbasan nglaki. Nanginig ang buong katawan ko sa dami ng ipinutok ng katalik ko at maging ako ay maraming nabas. Pagkatapos no''n ay pagod akong napahiga sa kanyang dibdib habang hinihingal nang husto.


    "So his name was ''Khan'', huh? The Omega who met his fated pair?" anilake. I couldn''t see his face but I guess he probably smirked.


    "Shut up," pambabalew kong sa kanya bago nanlumo ang ekspresiyon ng aking mukha.


    Yes.


    I have been in love with Khan for a very long time. He was dear to me and I knew how deeply he was hurt by his previous mate that''s why I decided to stay by his side. There were times that I wanted to confess my feelings but he only saw me as a friend and I did not want to ruin our rtionship. I loved him so much... so much that I even trusted him over to Okuda, even it it meant crushing my own heart.


    [This is something I can''t tell Khan. Never. Mas gugustuhin kong manatiling kaibigan ang tingin niya sa akin kaysa kamuhian niya ako,] wari ko sa isipan kasabay ng pagpatak muli ng mga luha ko.


    "I''m sorry, Khan," nagsisising paghingi ko ng patawad sa kawn habang umiiyak at nanatiling nakahiga pa rin sa dibdib nglaki.


    "You''re one weird Alpha," ang tanging nasabi namang nglaki sabay niyakap ako sa kanyang mga bisig, pilit na pinapagaan ang loob ko.


    "I love you, Khan. I''m so sorry. Forgive me."


    I repeated those words many times before I bawled like a defeated child within the arms of this Alpha that I barely knew. He, in return, remained silent and listened to my broken cries as I called out Khan''s name over and over again. Tonight, my unrequited love just ended.

 SIDE STORY: 2ND EGO

    AKI


    ¡°IZUMI-SENSEI, nandito po si Shimada-san. Nais ka daw po niya makita," pagbibigay-m sa akin ng sekretarya kong si Chihiro.


    Kaagad ko namang tinign ang palaro sa aking silya at umayos ng upo sabay sinenyasan si Chihiro na papasukin si Khan. Tumango naman siya bng pagsang-ayon at pagkatapos ay pumasok si Khan ng aking opisina, karga ang isang sanggol na ngay niya sa isang baby carrier.


    "Kha~n!" masaya kong bati sa kanya sabay yakap sana dito pero napatigil ako nang mala kong may baby sa dibdib siya. "Napadw ka?"


    "Aki, kagabing kita nakausap. Sinabi kong pupunta ako ngayon," ani Khan na medyo may halong inis ang boses dahil nakalimutan ko na naman ang tungkol sa pagdw niya ngayon.


    Parang engot naman akong napakamot sa aking batok bago tumawa ng pagak. "He he he. Pasensiya na."


    Napabuntong-hininga naman si Khan at pagkatapos ay tinanggal ang baby carrier bago maingat na kinuha ang baby niya m rito tapos iniharap sa akin. "Ito na si Yuuki ngayon," ani Khan bago nangiti.


    "Goo..." Para naman akong lumutang sa p nang marinig ko ang kanyang napaka-cute na boses.


    "Ah, Yuu-chan!" kinikilig kong pakli at gigil na kinarga pahiga ang baby sa mga bisig ko. "You look just like Khan!"


    Natawa naman si Khan sa sinabi ko. "Sa tingin mo? Habang lumki si Yuuki, mas lumki na rin ang demand niya sa pagkain."


    "Oo naman. Hindi naman habambuhay ay nakadependeng si Yuu-chan sa gatas," katuwiran ko naman habang nlaro ang maliliit na daliri ni Yuuki.? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    "Do you still hate Ryuichi?" bing tanong ni Khan. Hindi ko inasahang itatanong niya ang bagay na iyon kaya nabi ako at takang napatingin sa gawi niya habang pinandidtan ng mga mata. "H-huh?" I said in a hesitant voice.


    Bahagya namang nag-la ang ekspresiyon ng mukha ni Khan at inulit ang kanyang tanong, "Do you still hate Ryuichi?"


    "Nah, I dislike him just a little bit but it doesn''t mean that I hate him," pagtatanggi ko, though I was half lying.


    I, myself, couldn''t even say if it was hate that I felt towards Ryuichi. From the very beginning, I didn''t like his presence. Atlong hindi ko nagustuhan ang pagkatao niya noong mman kong naging sex friend siya ni Khan. I disliked the idea of Khan having sex with a bastard like him, though may ipinagbago na siya ngayon.


    I didn''t have the right to judge because I was doing the same to myself. Sleeping with different men from time to time and having secret feelings towards Khan and used our friendship to my advantage; I''m far worst than Ryuichi.


    [It''s more like jealousy... you idiot, Khan,] I thought to myself while gently caressing baby Yuuki''s cheek.


    "Aki, mahga ka sa ''kin. You were always there for me. Ikaw ang isa sa mga dahn kung bakit ko narating kung ano man ang meron ako ngayon. When we became friends, you gave me hope that not all Alphas are shits," madamdaming litanya ni Khan.


    "Whoa, whoa!" preno ko sa kanya bago sinauli si Yuuki sa kanyang mga bisig at pagkatapos ay inayos ko ang suot kong smin bago nagsalitang muli, "I am no saint, Khan. Don''t praise me too much. You''re gonna make me shed bloody tears," pabiro ko pang turan kahit na ang totoo ay naninikip na ang dibdib ko sa mga sandaling iyon.


    If only I could tell him the fucking truth. But I already decided to put an end to my feelings for him, for the sake of our friendship, and just cheer him on and I''ll silently watch as he builds a new, happy family with Ryuichi. Khan''s happiness is also my happiness.


    "Ryuichi told me everything," bing sabi ni Khan at napakurap ako.


    "What everything?"


    "Sorry for not noticing your feelings, Aki," paghingi ng tawad ni Khan kasabay ng pagbuhos ng kanyang mga luha. T nanikip naman anglamunan ko sa narinig. What the fuck is happening?! "I took advantage of our friendship at hindi ko manng napansin ang pagtingin mo sa ''kin. I couldn''t believe it myself either when Ryuichi told me pero maniw ka, hindi ako galit sa ''yo. Hindi nagbago ang tingin ko sa''yo. Ikaw pa rin ang ''Aki'' na nakla at minahal ko bng isang kaibigan."


    "Somehow... calling me your ''friend'' kinda hurts." Sa mga pagkakataong ito ay nagsim na rin akong maiyak. "But don''t worry, Khan, I will support you until the end. That I can promise," sabi ko at pinilit na ngumiti kahit na parang sasabog na ang dibdib ko sa sobrang sakit.


    [That fucking Ryuichi! So he noticed?! I''m gonna fucking rip his body apart!] Gigil ko namang sigaw sa isipan habang pinupunasan ang mga luha ko. "Aki..."


    "Thank you for not hating me, though," I said at nangising parang baliw pero nagt nang ako nang yakapin ako ni Khan while Yuuki was in between us. "Promise me that you''ll be happy, too," ani Khan at basta namang isinandal ang mukha ko sa mpad niyang balikat.


    Napalunok naman ako bago sinabing, "Khan... Can I say ''I love you''?" iyon na marahil ang pinakamasakit na mga katagang binitawan ko sa tanang buhay ko. "Idiot. Of course, you can," pagpapahintulot niya habang hinihimas ang ulo ko.


    Then my tears just overflowed before I bawled like a child on Khan''s shoulder. "I love you." I kept repeating those words while bawling and hugging Khan at the same time. He didn''t say anything. He let me shed all of my frustrations until I was satisfied.


    [Ah, Khan is so good. That''s why I can''t leave his side. Why did I have to fall for my friend?]


    Matapos ang wng kwenta naming kadramahan ay siniguro muna ni Khan na okay na anghat sa pagitan naming dwa. He wanted to free me from my suffering but he also wanted me to stay as his friend. Well... dahil sobrang bait niya at nag-effort pa siya na pagaanin ang loob ko, hindi na rin masama na officially rejected na ang one-sided love ko for 14 years.


    "Anyways, it would be impossible for us kung sakaling naging tayo, Khan," I said then Khan''s eyebrows furrowed.


    "What do you mean?" he asked.


    "*Iyah! Ore ni iwa sete wa nai yo! Hazukashi! [No! Don''t make me say it! It''s embarrassing!]" parang bang saad ko sabaygay ng mga kamay ko sa magkab kong pisngi na t kinikilig pa. "Aki, I''m fucking serious," Khan said in a stern voice.


    "Hindi tayo talo. Ha ha!" mabilis ko namang sagot at ng ang panga ni Khan.


    "You''re a fucking bo-?!"


    "Yes. I love big, fat cocks up my ass. Totally," putol ko naman sa kanya atlong naki ang kanyang mga mata.


    "Why didn''t you tell me?!" mariing buska nito sa ''kin.


    "Fuck, I''m an Alpha, Khan. Alphas are supposed to be dominants, not fucking cock-loving shitholes who loves being ravished like savage dogs," I eximed.


    "You didn''t have to be so vulgar," kunot-noong sita nito sa akin na t nandiri sa wagas kong pagmumura.


    "Are you happy now?" tukso ko nang kanya habang nakangisi ako ng nakakaloko.


    "I just hope you don''t y around," nag-ala nitong saad.


    "Well, that''s a different story," I said at isang sumusukong buntong-hininga namang ang pinakawn ni Khan.


    "I''ll be taking my leave now. Thank you for telling me the truth, Aki," pagpapam na nito at ngay na si Yuuki sa baby carrier na ngayo''y tulog na.


    "Yeah. Ingat kayo ni Yuu-chan sa pag-uwi," nakangiti ko namang pam sa kanng dwa. Then he left, half happy that things were settled between us and half worried after knowing that I was a neko.


    Even I would be surprised if Khan told me that Ryuichi starts to bottom. I''d love to see that dickhead''s ass get ripped apart. Just thinking about it made me excited for some some reason. Am I a pervert now? "Haay... Mukhang hate ko nga si Ryuichi. Ha ha! Whatever," natatawang kausap ko sa aking sarili at muli na namang pinaikot-ikot ang swivel chair ko while waiting for patients toe.


    Pagsapit ng tanghali ay lumabas ako sa aking private clinic room at hinanap si Chihiro. He would never leave his ce unless I told him so. Ganyan siya ka-diligent sa trabaho kaya w akong naging problema sa kanya. What I''m only concerned about was the fact that he might go into heat while working in my clinic. That would be too dangerous, not only for me but for some Alphas too who visit here to get medications for their ruts.


    Mataas naman ang tolerance ko sa Omega pheromone so I''m less worried but after what happened to Khan, their heat can really reach a certain kind of intensity when triggered with strong dosage of drugs. Mabuti nang tga at nakulong na ang uhog na si Fujiwara but I know that there are still millions of fuckers out there who sell illegal drugs that can affect anyone. Mbong mag-isamang na naisagawa ni Fujiwara ang ganoong se ng droga ng wng pinansiyal na tulong.


    Leaving that aside, pinuntahan ko si Chihiro at nangiti naman ito kaagad nang makita ako.


    "Sensei!" aniya sabay nagliwanag ang buong mukha niya. Kaninang ay napaka-gloomy nito na animo''y namatayan siya ng kamag-anak. Ang bilis tga mag-shift ng kanyang mood. Nakakakbot!


    "Chihiro, dinw ka na ba ng heat mo ngayong buwan?" agarang tanong ko sa kanya.


    Nahihiyang sumagot naman ang dambuhng Omega. "H-hindi pa po, sensei."


    "Fuck! Stop blushing! You look like a huge ogre who look like he was trying to hold back his pee!" inis na sita ko sa kanya at mabilis naman siyang umayos ng tayo pero namum pa rin ng todo ang buong mukha niya pero sa pagkakataong ito ay kinikilig na ang tanga.


    "Pero, sensei, ngayonng na-imagine kita na naghuhubad sa harap ko kaya tinigasan ako bi," wng kahiya-hiyang pagsisiwt ni Chihiro na pilit pang tinago ang naninigas nga niyang pagklake sa pagitan ng kanyang mga hita. "Uwaah! Fuck! You''re disgusting! Fuck! Bah ka sa buhay mo!" Diring-diri kong mura habang namum na rin ang mukha ko at dali-daling tinalikuran ang tanga kong sekretarya at bumalik sa loob ng clinic ko.


    [I can''t fucking believe him!] I shouted in my mind.


    Muntik din akong tigasan sa sinabi niya. Paano niya nagagawang sabihin ang mga ganoong bagay ng wng kahirap-hirap?! Ni hindi ko makitaan ng hesitasyon ang pagmumukha ng higanteng ''yon!

    CHIHIRO


    HANAMICHI Chihiro, twenty-two years old. First time kong ma-in love!


    Dahil sa tindig ko at hitsura, maraming natatakot sa akin pero sa kab nito ay masaya pa rin ako. Pinki ako ng aking mga magng na puno ng pagmamahal. S ang naging inspirasyon ko kung bakit hanggang ngayon ay naniniw ako sa true love. Makaluma na kung pakikinggan,lo na sa panahon ngayon pero naniniw akong bawat isa sa atin ay may nakan na taong karapat-dapat na tumanggap ng ating pagmamahal. At si Izumi-sensei ang true love ko!


    "W na itong urungan. Nasabi ko na kay Sensei ang totoo kong nararamdaman. Kahit noong unang araw pang ng aming pagkikita ay siya na tga ang para sa ''kin," kinikilig na kausap ko sa aking sarili habang ini-imagine si Izumi-sensei na nagpapa-cute sa harap ko habang binibigyan ako ng wagas na flying kiss. "Kya~h! Sensei!" bing hiyaw ko pa at napaigtad ang babaeng pasyente na may schedule magpa-check-up kay Izumi-sensei ngayon. "Ah. Sorry. Ikaw na ang susunod," pagpapaumanhin ko sa kanya nang mapansin kong kinbutan siya sa ikinilos ko.


    "S-smat," nag-angan namang pakli ng babae bago pumasok sa clinic room ni Izumi-sensei.


    Ang totoo niyan, hindi ko inasahang mahuhulog ang loob ko kay Izumi-sensei. Nagkaroon na ako ng mga crush noon pero iba siya sahat.


    .


    [FLASHBACK]


    Kabadong-kabado ako noong mag-a-apply pamang ako sa clinic na ito. Graduating na ako at kangan kong kumuha ng OJT experience para makumpleto ang requirements ko.


    Totoong karamihan sa mga Omega ay wng pinag-arn at mababa ang uri ng kanng mga pamumuhay kumpara sa mga Alpha at ng Beta. Pero, marami sa mga Omega ang likas na marunong. Hindi mayaman ang mga magng ko pero sinikap nng pag-aralin ako sa kab ng hindi pagtanggap ng mga sarili nng pamilya sa kanng rsiyon.


    Nagm sa isang mayaman na pamilya ang Alpha kong ama at ang ina ko namang Omega ay isamang tauhan ng kanng pamilya noon. Hindi inak ng ama kong mahuhulog siya sa Omega kong ina na isa ringlaki kagaya niya. Hindi naman na bago ang pagkakaroon ng rsyon sa kapareho ng kasarian ngunit strikto ang pamilya ng aking ama. Ayaw n sa mgalaking Omega dahil mlandi daw ang mga ito at aakitinng ang kahit na sinong Alpha na kanng matipuan. Taliwas ang naging paniniw ng ama ko noon. Pinaban niya ang pagmamahn n ng aking ina hanggang sa mabuntis si ina. Sobrang nagalit ang pamilya ng ama ko sa kanya at pinyas sng dwa. Dahil dito ay naghirap si ama pero hindi nito napign ang kanng pagmamahn. Pinki n ako at binusog sa pagmamahal. Masasabi kong napakasuwerte ko dahil s ang mga naging magng ko.


    Kaya noong una kong makita si Izumi-sensei, tsaka kong naintindihan ang parating sinasabi sa akin ng ina ko noon: Ang isang senyales na gusto mo ang isang tao ay bi namang kumakabog ang dibdib mo nang wng dahn. Gano''n ang naramdaman ko nang makita ko sa unang pagkakataon si Izumi-sensei. Hindi maganda ang naging first impression niya sa akin pero hindi na iyon mahga.


    "Ano ang pangn mo?" tanong nito sa akin habang titig na titig ito sa kabuuan ko. Para bang hindi ito makapaniw na nag-aaral pamang ako.


    "H-Hanamichi Chihiro *desu [formal way of speaking]," kinakabahan kong pagpapakla sabay lunok.


    "Isa kang... Omega?" Nagtaas siya ng isang ky at mas tumindi ang pagkakatitig niya sa akin nang basahin nito ang aking resum¨¦.


    Napapig naman ako sa takot na baka hindi niya ako tanggapin. Totoong hindi biro ang pagha-hire ng mga Omega sa kahit na anong uri ng trabaho dahil sa heat cycle namin. "O-opo!"


    ¡°Hmm... Sige. Hired ka na. I''m Izumi Aki,¡± pagpapakla niya sa kanyang sarili at kumip naman ang mga mata ko sa saya.


    "Izumi-sensei... You''re so beautiful!" bing komento ko habang kilig na kilig na nakatitig sa kanya.


    Literal na ng ang panga ni Izumi-sensei sa sinabi ko no''n at matagal bago siya nakapagsalita. Sinabi nito sa akin pagkatapos na kinakangan kong maging maingat sahat ng oras. Ako pamang ang kauna-unahang Omega na pinayagan niyang magtrabaho sa clinic niya dahil mukha naman daw akong may m. Parang insulto ang pagkakasabi niya no''n pero napakasaya ko na tinanggap niya ako.


    [END OF FLASHBACK]


    ?


    At nitong nakaraang buwanmang ay graduate na ako at ngayon ay regr secretary na ako ni Izumi-sensei.


    "Kya~h!" Muli ko na namang hiyaw sa kawn at pinagtinginan ako ng mga naghihintay na pasyente. Mayamaya pa ay lumabas ang babae kanina. Lumapit ito sa akin bago pinakita ang prescribed medicines na kangan niyang bilhin. Binasa ko ang nakast doon at tiningnan kung mayroon pa kaming stock. "Um... miss, w na kami nitong birth control pills. Subukan mo nang sa drug store," sabi ko sa babae at tumango naman siya bng pagsang-ayon. "Sige, smat," aniya bago umalis.


    [Birth control pills... Gumagamit din kaya ang mga Alpha ng birth control pills?] Bi kong isip-isip at napatingin sa gawi ng clinic room ni Izumi-sensei.


    W akong m tungkol sa pribadong buhay ni Izumi-sensei. Ang tanging m kong ay mayroon siyang kaibigan na nagngangng Shimada Kazuki at mads itong pumunta dito noon pero sim noong nahanap na niya ang kanyang fated pair at noong nagkaanak na s, minsan nang siya napapadako rito. Hindi ko m kung paano s naging magkaibigan pero nakikita ko kay Izumi-sensei na iba si Shimada-san sahat, para bang espesyal siyang tao sa buhay ni Sensei.


    [Ah. I got hard,] bi namang akong kinbutan nang mala kong work hours pa p ngayon at bukod doon, marami pa ang nakap para magpa-check-up! Ano''ng gagawin ko?! Prantik kong isip habang panay ang lingon sa aking paligid.


    "Ayos kang?" bing puna ng isanglaki na naghihintay rin sa napakahabang p ng mga naka-schedule magpatingin ngayon nang mahta nitong t hindi ako mapakali.


    Mabilis naman akong tumango. "O-oo," pagsisinungaling ko kahit na mpit na akong mabaliw dahilng sa naisip ko na naman si Izumi-sensei.


    [Ayosng kaya kung mag-CR muna ako? Baka kasi tawagin ako bi ni Sensei,] nag-ala kong isip at panay na sinilip ang reaksiyon ng mga tao sa kilos ko. Lahat s ay nahahta na ang pagiging balisa ko. Kangan ko nang makaalis dito salong madaling panahon!


    Pasimple akong umalis sa aking puwesto bago ngumiti sa mga pasyente na nadaanan ko. Nang masigurong w na ang atensiyon n sa akin ay kumaripas ako ng takbo papuntang banyo. Mabuti nang tga at medyo myo ang banyo kaya hindi n ako maririnig kung sakaling magparaos muna ako sandali o ''di kaya ay mapaungol nang hindi inaasahan.


    "Umfgh!" Impit akong napaungol habang ginagawan ng paraan ang aking pagklake na kumalma. Hindi ko m kung bakit bi namang akong tinigasan pero napapansin kong nangyayari ito sa tuwing napapads ang pag-iisip ko tungkol kay Izumi-sensei. m kong hindi ito normal atlong hindi tama pero ano ang magagawa ko?! "Sensei... suki desu," turan ko sa kawn habang binibilisan na ang pag-ulos sa aking pagklake.


    Noong una niya akong makitang ginagawa ito habang nakatingin siya ay sobra akong na-excite. May parte ng pagkatao ko ang nahiya dahil isa akong Omega na may katawan ng isang Alpha pero may parte din na nagsasabing nais kong mman ni Izumi-sensei na hindi ako nagbibiro kapag sinabi kong gusto ko siya.


    [Paano ko kaya mapapaniw si Sensei na seryoso ako?] Namomroblema kong ani sa isipan.


    "Sensei!" Kasabay ng pagtawag ko sa kanyang ngn ay nbasan naman ako. Gaya ng inaasahan ko, marami na naman akong nabas ngayon. "Bakit ba kasi ang libog ko?" naiiyak ko nang na tanong sa aking sarili sabay kuha ng tissue at nilinis ang sarili ko bago ako naghugas ng kamay. "Kung nakikitang ako ni Izumi-sensei ngayon wng duda na papagalitan na naman ako no''n."


    Matapos makaraos ay bumalik na ako sa aking puwesto. Lumuwag naman ang pakiramdam ko nang w ni isa sa mga pasyente ang nagduda sa pagkaw ko.

    Mag-a-s ocho na ng gabi at kasalukuyan nang nililigpit ni Izumi-sensei ang kanyang mga gamit bago ito umuwi. Ako naman ay mpit na ring matapos sa pagche-check ng log book. Inm ko na rin kung ano''ng mga gamot ang w na kaming stock upang masabihan ko si Sensei. ng sandali pa ay nagbukas ang pinto ng kanyang clinic room. Mabilis naman akong napatingin sa kanyang direksiyon.


    "Sensei!" bi kong ani at napaigtad si Sensei nang bahagya sa gt.


    "Tapos ka na? Magsasara na tayo," tanong nito.


    Niligpit ko naman ang log book bago ko siya sinagot, "Sensei, w na tayong stock ng birth control pills. Kakaunti na rin ang anti-Alpha rut natin."


    "Oh, okay. Siya nga p..." aniya at pagkatapos ay bing nam ang pisngi ni Izumi-sensei at medyo nag-alingan na tapusin ang nais niyang sabihin, "Don''t you ever masturbate in front of me, ever again. Especially when we are here." Hindi naman siya galit atlong hindi rin niya ako sinisigawan pero awtomatiko namang akong napaiyak nang wng dahn.


    "Do you hate me now, Sensei? Ugh..." parang batang umiiyak kong tanong habang tumutulo ang sipon ko.


    Nataranta naman si Izumi-sensei sa naging reaksiyon ko at pilit na pinagaan ang aking loob. "It''s not like that!" mariin niyang tanggi. "Sinong normal na tao ang gagawa ng ginawa mo knowing that someone was witnessing your actions?! Hindi ba nasabi sa iyo na kangan ng privacy ang paggawa ng mga ganoong bagay?!"


    "Patawad, Sensei. Hindi na po mauulit!" nagsisisi kong pakli bago bumhaw ng iyak at tuluyang nataranta ang doktor.


    "Stop crying! Para kang bakang kinakatay!" inis nitong sita sa akin.


    "P-pero..." Suminghot ako bago pinunasan ang mga luha ko. "Gusto tga kita, Sensei," katuwiran ko.


    Napa-tsk si Izumi-sensei bago inayos ang suot nitong smin. "Do you seriously like me?"


    "Opo," mabilis ko namang sagot.


    Napabuntong-hininga muna siya bago nagsalita, "Then don''t do that!" bing singhal nito kaya naki ang mga mata ko sa gt. "Puputulin ko ''yang ari mo kapag ginawa mo ulit ''yon sa harap ko! Maliwanag?!" gigil nitong banta sa akin pero imbes na matakot ay tuwa ang aking naramdaman.


    "Opo, Sensei!" mabilis kong sang-ayon sabay nangiti ng mpad bago nagliwanag ang buong mukha ko.


    "You''re really weird," aniya saka ako tinalikuran.


    "Sensei, suki desu!" muli ko na namang derasiyon at nakita kong nam ang mukha niya kahit na nakatalikod ito sa akin.


    Pagkatapos no''n ay umuwi na kami. Gusto ko sanang bigyan ng goodbye kiss si Sensei kaso baka suntukin niya ako kaya sa susunod nang.


    Kinabukasan, napansin ko na medyo matay si Izumi-sensei. Para bang may dinad itong problema. Nais ko siyang tanungin pero sinabi ng mga magng ko na hindi magandang asal ang manghimasok sa buhay ng iba ng wng pahintulot. Kangan ko raw matutong min ang posisyon at limitasyon ko bng isang tao. Ayosng na magpakita ng msakit pero nasa tao na iyon kung pagkakatiwan ka n.


    Maayos na natapos ang araw. Kakaunting ang nagpatingin ngayon. Hindi rin gaanong nakibo si Izumi-sensei sa akin.


    Just a heads up:  is the only ce to read theplete version of this book for free. Don''t miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey! [Galit kaya siya? Ayokong kamuhian ako ni Sensei. Ano ang maaari kong gawin upang makita niyang seryoso ako?]


    Tapos na akong magligpit ng mga gamit pero hindi pa lumbas si Sensei sa kanyang room. Minabuti ko namang na min kung mamaya pa siya uuwi o baka may gagawin pa itong iba. "Sensei?" mahinang tawag ko sa kanyang pangn sabay katok sa pinto. Marahil ay masyadong mahina ang pagkakatawag ko dahil hindi ito sumagot. Akmang magsasalita sana ako ulit nang marinig kong t may kausap ito sa loob.


    [Bakit hindi ko napansing may pumasok na iba?!] Pagwaw ko sa aking isipan.


    "I told you, hindi na muna ako makikipagkita sa ''yo. My schedule is hectic," ani Sensei sa medyo inis na tono.


    "But you are lonely, aren''t you?" wika ng isang boseslaki m sa loob. May kliman ito at mukhang mpit ito kay Izumi-sensei base sa tono ng pananalita nito.


    "Fuck off. My secretary is still outside kaya umalis ka na. Pagod ako," pagtataboy ni Sensei sa kausap at may narinig akong nahulog na matigas na bagay bago may bumangga sa pinto kaya napaatras ako sabay takip ng aking bibig. "Butst night, weren''t you enjoying while I yed with your sweet ass? You were crying so desperately I can''t help but fuck you, Aki," turan nglaki at namig ang buong katawan ko sa narinig.


    "I told you to quit calling me ''Aki'', you bastard!" buska ni Sensei rito at napasinghap ako nang marinig ang isang impit at pigil na ungol m sa kanya. "Ngh! Where do you think you''re touching?"


    "Oh? You got hard just from my touch?" tukso nglaki kay Sensei atlo akong nanigas sa aking kinatatayuan.


    Guni-guni kong anghat. Hindi ito totoo, hindi ba? Imposible na gawin ni Sensei ang ganitong bagay. Sandali...


    [W akong maintindihan!] Sigaw ko sa aking isipan kasabay ng pagbuhos ng mga luha ko.


    "Just leave!" singhal ni Sensei at napasinghap akong muli nang may bumangga na naman sa pinto. "Aah..."


    "Are you sure you don''t want my cock right now?"


    [C-c-c-c-cock?! Teka. A-ano''ng c-cock? Isang tandang...?] Naguguluhang wari ko sa isipan habang umiikot ang mga mata ko sa pagkalito.


    "Fuck it! I said, leave!" tuluyan nang nagtaas ng boses si Sensei.


    Saglit na natahimik sa loob bago nagbukas ang pinto. Dali-dali naman akong nagtago. Mabuti nang at hindi mki ang awang ng pinto kaya hindi n ako napansin.? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    Nakita ko ang mukha nglaking nakausap ni Izumi-sensei. Matikas ang tindig nito at mukhang mayaman. Hindi siya mukhang bayolente pero nararamdaman ko ang aura ng isang Alpha m sa kanya. Tinangka pa nitong halikan si Sensei pero mabilis siya nitong iniwasan at pinagtabuyan hanggang sa nasabas na ito habang ako naman ay tahimik na sinundanmang s ng tingin.


    "I''m free. Call me if you feel like doing it. Just give up on that Omega already. W kang mapap sa kan," pahabol na saad nglaki at nagawa pang dampian ng masuyong halik si Sensei sa pisngi.


    Nakatalikod si Sensei sa akin kaya hindi ko nakita ang naging reaksiyon niya sa halik na iyon. "Leave," tipid niyang tugon dito at pagkatapos ay lumisan na anglaki. Pagkaalis nglaki ay napabuga ng hangin si Sensei bago mahigpit na


    niyakap ang kanyang sarili. Iyon ang unang beses na nakita ko siyang t pinanghihinaan ng loob. "Wng mapap... ''ka mo...? I know that already. You don''t have to tell me that, you fucker," halos pabulong na saad ni Sensei sa kanyang sarili.


    Para naman akong tinusok ng kutsilyo sa narinig. Ano ang ibig sabihin no''nglaki? Posible kaya na may nagugustuhan si Sensei na isang Omega? Pero sino?


    Lihim ko namang naikuyom ang aking mga kamay kasabay ng pag-iyak ko ng tahimik. "Sensei... suki desu," pabulong kong wika habang taimtim na nakatitig sa kanya sa myo.


    Ngayon kong napagtantong w p akong kam-m tungkol kay Sensei.

 SIDE STORY: 4TH EGO

    AKI


    "SENSEI, may summer vacation ka po ba?" nahihiyang tanong ni Chihiro sa akin habang kumakain kami ng tanghalian.


    "Why?" I asked, a little bit confused by his sudden approach.? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    "Um..." Parang uod naman itong gumw-gw sa kanyang upuan bago nagpatuloy sa pagsasalita, "bk ko po sana umuwi sa amin sa summer vacation leave ko."


    "Huh?" I raised an eyebrow and gave him an intimidating look. "Who said that you''re getting a vacation?"


    "Eh?!" mabilis namang angal ni Chihiro kaya hindi ko napigng mapabuhakhak ng tawa.


    "I was joking! Naniw ka naman agad! Ha ha!" Iughed out loud as his face turned so red like that of a very riped tomato.


    "Sensei naman, eh!" Chihiro eximed while pouting his lips.


    [Until now, I still can''t believe that this giant ogre is only huge on the outside but he has the soul of a defenseless young puppy. It makes me wanna bully him sometimes,] I thought to myself while watching Chihiro lose his cool. "Go ahead. I was nning to take a break, too," I said and Chihiro fidgeted like an idiot.


    Nro nito ang kanyang mga daliri bago sinabing, "Kung hindi ka busy, Sensei, gusto mo bang sumama sa akin?"


    "Huh?" I dropped my jaw in shock. Hindi ko na mala kung ano ang mga kasunod na sinabi ni Chihiro sa akin pero sa huli ay napapayag niya akong sumama.


    Nasa train station na kami ngayon at hinihintay ang tren na bibiyahe sa hometown ni Chihiro. I didn''t know where he lived and he wouldn''t tell me either so I didn''t argue with it anymore. I only packed the things that I needed for a five-day trip and vacation.


    While we were with the waiting crowd, nman ko kung gaano kapansinin ang height ni Chihiro. Bukod sa natural tanned skin nito at mking pangangatawan, he almost looked like an exotic foreigner - more like that of a guy from a tribe with beautiful people.


    [Fuck! Did I just say beautiful?!] Bing mura ko sa aking isipan nang ma-realize kong titig na titig ako kay Chihiro habang iniisip ang mga ito. Thank goodness he was an airhead kaya hindi manng nito napuna ang mga titig ko at maging ng mga taong nasa paligid namin.


    "Sensei...?" nagtatakang ani ni Chihiro nang makita nitong panay ang linga ko sa likod.


    [I was trying to hide my embarassment. Shit! Why look this way now?!] Pagwaw ko sa ''king sarili.


    "Hmm? What?" kunwaring takang baling ko sa kanya at napangiti naman itong parang bata.


    "Ang ganda mo ngayon," he said without blinking nor any sign of sick joke. He was just shing his usual innocent, idiotic smile.


    It gave me the goosebumps and I almost exploded in total disbelief matapos iyong marinig. Hindi na bago sa akin ang tinatawag at pinupuring maganda because this was one of the reasons why most guys only approached me because I almost resembled a woman. It irritated me most of the time, knowing that they were not seeing the real me but the way Chihiro addresses me as beautiful is far from inpliment.


    He makes my heart race every time he does that!


    "Sensei...?" mahinang tawag nito sa ''kin nang mapuna niyang hindi ako nakibo.


    "Yes?!" I jolted and forced myself to look his way. I bet my face was flushed but Chihiro didn''t seem to bother.


    "Nandiyan na po ang tren. Tayo na," pag-iiba nito ng usapan at mabilis na naw ang excitement ko at napalitan ng pagkadismaya.


    [What was I expecting? He''s an idiot,] I thought to myself before sighing in disappointment.


    We had a few chat while riding the train; most of them were work rted. Chihiro seemed to be more rxed and somehow excited to show me his hometown. He told me that his parents were excited when he told them na may makakasama siya sa pag-uwi. Well... I''m a little bit nervous because this will be my first time staying over at a friend''s house. I have stayed over a lot of ces and houses that I was not familiar with but that was just because I wanted to escape from my boring life.


    ?


    .


    "*Ma-chan, *Tou-chan... [cute way of addressing his mother and father] *Tadaima [I''m home/I''m back]!" Puno ng saya ang boses ni Chihiro nang makarating na kami sa tapat ng kanng bahay. It was an average household with an old fashion look and ambiance.


    I heard loud thuds and noises from the inside bago bumukas ang pinto at bumungad sa amin ang dwang higanteng mgalaki.


    [A family of giants!] I screamed in my mind then I suddenly felt inferior about my height.


    "*Okaeri [Wee home/Wee back], *Hirhi [another cute way of calling someone''s name]!" Bati ng isa sa kan sabay yakap kay Chihiro ng mahigpit. He had the same skin color and body build as Chihiro. I was pretty sure that he was his Omega mother. Then the other guy who had lighter skin and just the right build came closer and gave Chihiro a hug too. That must be his Alpha father.


    "Okaeri, Hirhi." Nakangiting saad ng maputinglaki sa anak bago ako tiningnan. "Tuloy ka." Napalunok naman ako sa gentleness ng boses nito maging ang paraan ng pagtanggap n sa akin. It was a feeling that I have never experienced in my entire life.


    "Pasok ka, Sensei! Nagluto si Tou-chan ng marami dahil hindi niya m kung ano ang gusto mong kainin," excited na giya ni Chihiro sa akin sabay kinuha ang mga d ko at itinabi ang mga ito.


    "T-thank you," medyo ngan kong pakli at nagsim akong makaramdam ng hiya.


    We went straight to their kitchen and I was so surprised when it felt so cozy, even cozier than our own house when I was still living there.


    "Puro traditional Japanese foods ang niluto ni Hiromi dahil hindi namin m kung anong se ng pagkain ang gusto ng bisita ni Hirhi," ani nglaki na halos kamukha ni Chihiro, hinding sa mukha kundi maging sa gestures niya. "Ako nga p ang mama ni Hirhi, Hanamichi Chidori desu."


    "Chidori?" bi kong pakli. "A girl''s name...?" medyo alingan kong patuloy sabay tingin sa kanyang mga magng na nakangiting.


    "Yes. But Chidori can be a boy''s name, too," paglilinaw naman ng isa sa kan bago ito nagpakla. "I''m Hanamichi Hiromi."


    "Kaya p ''Chihiro'' ang pangn ng anak niyo. I first thought that he was a female, too," I concluded after finally knowing the reason behind Chihiro''s girly name. I was really bothered by it at first pero hindi ko na tinanong.


    "Ha ha! Nasorpresa nga ako noong sabihin sa amin ni Hirhi na may kasama siya sa pag-uwi," ani ng ama nito.


    "Tou-chan!" nahihiyang saway ni Chihiro dito.


    "Oo nga. Ak kasi ng mga tao ay nakakatakot siya at pati kami dahil mlaki kaming tao. Dahil dito ay wng mga kaibigan si Hirhi noong nag-aaral pa siya. Kaya masaya kami na nagkaroon na siya ng isa ngayon," nakangiti namang sang-ayon ng ina nito.


    ?


    Just a heads up:  is the only ce to read theplete version of this book for free. Don''t miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey!


    "Ma-chan!" nahihiya rin niyang saway sa ina.


    Napatingin naman ako kay Chihiro. He was fidgeting like a child atlong nang dahil nandito ako ngayon. I didn''t expect that he went through such harsh experiences. He was so expressive and had a positive outlook in his life despite being stupid most of the time. [I have misunderstood him, as well.]


    "Your son is a hardworker. Hindi ako nagsisi na kinuha ko siya," I proudly said and suddenly smiled without knowing the reason why.


    My words made Chihiro blush to the extreme that I could almost see smokesing out from his ears. Even I felt my cheeks get hot the moment I realized that I said something that I wouldn''t normally say. [What the fucking hell was that all about?!]


    "Uh..." Pinilit kong itago ang hiyang nararamdaman ko sa pamamagitan ng pagtikhim pero t nagk naman ang mga magng ni Chihiro sa nman.


    "Ang bait niyang Alpha, Hiromi," kinikilig na ani ng ina niya.


    "So..." His father, on the other hand, crossed his arms then what he asked us (Chihiro and me) next was unexpected. "Have you done it yet?"


    I literally spilled out the water that I was about to swallow sa tinanong niyang iyon samantng si Chihiro ay parang baliw na napatinginng sa kanyang ama na htang natuwa sa naging reaksiyon ko. "Ano''ng pinagsasabi mo, Hiromi?" Lutang ding tanong ng kanyang Omega partner.


    "Oh, where are my manners? Ha ha! Kumain nang muna tayo at kalimutan mo na iyong itinanong ko, Izumi-sensei," pag-iiba ng usapan ni Hiromi-san at pagkatapos ay kalmadong nagsimng kumain. [Fuck! Did he just ask me if Chihiro and I already had sex?! What the fuck?! Mababaliw ako sa pamilyang ''to!]


    .


    .


    Matapos naming kumain ay niyaya ako ni Chihiro na makadkad sa tabing-dagat. His house was near the sea kaya advantage dahil summer vacation naman tga ang sadya namin dito. Inalok niya akong maligo pero mas pinili ko nang na mamasyal muna at kung maaari ay saksihan ang paglubog ng araw.


    "Haah~ Na-miss ko ito," said Chihiro as he inhaled the sea breeze.


    He wore a simple sando top and loose shorts and slippers. It was the first time that I saw most of his exposed skin at doon ko mas nman kung gaano kaganda ang hubog ng kanyang katawan. His body features were totally my type. Those fine and strong muscles of his arms would definitely feel good around me. And his broad shoulders are perfect to cling on, and down there, well... he looks kinda...


    "FUCK!" Isang mariin at napakkas na mura ang bi kong naiblas upon realizing how lewd my thoughts were.


    "Sensei? May problema ba?" nagtataka at nag-alang tanong sa ''kin ni Chihiro.


    "H-huh? No, I''m fine. I didn''t mean to curse like that," mabilis ko namang depensa.


    Nagsim namang mamuo ang gabutil na mga luha sa tagiliran ng mga mata ni Chihiro bago ito suminghot. "Sabi ko na nga ba napilitan kang na sumama sa ''kin, Sensei. Patawad!" At pagkatapos ay tuluyan itong umiyak. "Hey! That''s not true!" taranta ko namang pagpapatahan sa kanya at tinangka pang punasan ang kanyang mga luha pero kaagad akong napaatras nang mapagtantong baka bigyan niya ng ibang kahulugan ang gagawin ko.


    "Pero napakasaya ko, Sensei. Ak ko hanggang panaginip ko nang mararanasan ang makasama ka ng ganito na nalakad sa tabi ng dagat," saad ni Chihiro habang pinupunasan ang mga luha nito. "Hindi ganoon kapareho sa panaginip ko kung saan naghubad ka raw sa harap ko habang pinapanood natin ang paglubog ng araw at nang sumapit ang gabi ay may nangyaring mgro. Binigyan mo raw ako ng blow-?


    "Chihiro!" mkas na sambit ko sa kanyang pangn at awtomatiko siyang nahinto sa pagsasalita. "Enough. Please..." nagmamakaawa kong pakiusap.


    [Bakit ba napaka-honest ng batang ito?! He''s making me insane!] Napablas nang ako sa aking isipan.


    "May mali ba sa sinabi ko, Sensei?" T w siyang kam-m kung gaano ka-masn ang kanyang mga pantasya patungkol sa akin. It almost sounded like I was a goddamn fucking whore in his fantasies! "No, it''s just that..." I bit lower lip as I tried to find the right words to say, "...never mind. Let''s go back."


    "Sige," sang-ayon namang niya kahit htang gusto pa nitong manatili pa kami ng mas matagal.


    We just walked and didn''t say anything to each other on our way back. Marahil ay na-realize din ni Chihiro na awkward ang mga sinabi niya sa akin kanina.


    .


    "Izumi-sensei, ayosng ba sa ''yo kung sa kuwarto ka ni Hirhi matutulog?" nakangiti at magng na tanong sa akin ng ama ni Chihiro. We were getting ready to sleep.


    "Huh?" I literally dropped my jaw. I would be staying here for five days. Did he seriously think letting me sleep on his son''s room was a good idea?! What''s wrong with this family?!


    "Pasensiya ka na, Sensei. Maliitng ang bahay namin at ang tanging kuwartong ay ang sa amin at kay Hirhi," sabat naman ng ina nito na medyo nag-la na baka magalit ako sa kan. "Sensei, kung hindi ka komportable na makasama ako sa iisang kuwarto, sa s nang po ako matutulog," Chihiro offered while grinning like a stupid monkey.


    "No. That would be rude of me. It''s your room and-" tanggi ko sana pero hindi ko naituloy ang nais kong sabihin.


    "Pero mas nakakahiya naman kung ikaw ang nasa s," giit ng kanyang ina at binigyan nito ng nagmamakaawang tingin ang anak.


    "No. Sharing a room would be fine," I said in a low voice at nagliwanag naman ang mukha ni Chihiro.


    "Thank you, Sensei! Tayo na sa loob!" tuwang-tuwang saad ni Chihiro at kindkad ako papasok ng kanyang kuwarto habang bitbit nito ang mga kumot at unan na ipapagamit n sa akin. "Have a good night!" said Chihiro''s father.


    "Goodnight, anak. Goodnight, Izumi-sensei," saad naman ng ina niya at pasimple pang nag-wave sa amin ni Chihiro.


    "*Oyasumi [Goodnight], Ma-chan, Tou-chan!" ngiting abot hanggang taingang tugon ni Chihiro.


    Chihiro was so excited to fix his bed kaya ako nang ang nagpasyang magsara ng pinto. But before I could close it, nahuli ko pa ang kanyang mga magng na naghalikan bago ito pumasok sa kanng sariling kuwarto. I even saw his father grab his wife''s ass at awtomatiko namang nam ang buong mukha ng kndi nito bago s tuluyang naw sa paningin ko. I was left dumbfounded and speechless. It was normal because they were mates - married even - but why did I felt so envious?


    Nang silipin ko si Chihiro ay ab pa rin ito sa kakaayos ng kanyang kama. Maayos naman na ito pero marahil ay gusto niyang magpams ng good impression. Lihim naman akong napangiti at nakaramdam ng saya. Hindi ko m kung bakit ako masaya pero ito ang unang pagkakataong mayroong taong sobrang nagpakita ng kabaitan sa akin. Now I know why Chihiro was such a good person. He had a wonderful family, no wonder he was such an innocent guy. And here I was... spoiling his innocence, seeing him as another object of my sexual fantasies.

    AKI


    "HIROCCHI, m naming nais mo kaming makasama ng mama mo pero nakalimutan naming sabihin sa ''yo na bk p naming bisitahin ang burol ng kapatid mo at doon muna lumagi sa dati nating bahay," bing saad ng ama ni Chihiro habang kumakain kami ng almusal.


    Bahagyang natign si Chihiro nang banggitin ng kanyang ama ang tungkol sa kanyang kapatid. "Gano''n po ba, Tou-chan? Okayng po. Ako na ang bah kay Sensei at dito sa bahay," sabi naman nito at pinilit ngumiti. "You have a sibling?" I asked without noticing everyone''s hurt upon bringing up that topic.


    Mahina namang tumango si Chihiro bago ako sinagot, "Opo, Sensei. Kakambal ko." He said it with a hurt expression.


    "Sorry, Sensei, ha? Medyo emosyonal si Hirhi pagdating sa kakambal niya," pagpapaumanhin ng kanyang ina at mabilis akong napailing.


    "It''s okay. I understand," pagsisiguro ko naman sa kan.


    We finished our breakfast before Chihiro''s parents started to pack their things. Kung kapatid nga niya ang kanng bibisitahin, bakit hindi kasama si Chihiro?


    "Ingat kayo dito," pala ng kanyang ama bago ito nagpam sa amin.


    "Mag-iingat din po kayo, Tou-chan, Ma-chan," ani Chihiro.


    "Ikukumusta ka nang namin kay Chiromi," aniya ina nito.


    "Mm." Isang matay at wng buhay na ngitimang ang isinagot ni Chihiro at pagkatapos ay umalis na s.


    I wonder if something happened between the two of them. Questions were rising inside my head but I couldn''t bring myself asking Chihiro about it. Pakiramdam ko ay panghihimasok sa pribadong buhay n ang gagawin ko kung sakali. "Sensei, gusto mo bang mamasyal? Nakakabagot kasi kung nanditong tayo sa bahay," bing yaya sa akin ni Chihiro.


    "Can I ask something personal?" diretsahan kong tanong. I was really curious.


    I was sitting on their sofa and then Chihiro sat beside me before letting out a big sigh. "Tungkol po ba kay Chiromi?" he guessed.


    "That''s your twin''s name?"


    "Sampung taon na ang nakalipas magm noong mangyari ang insidente," he started. "Hindi pa kami nakatira dito. Ang dati naming bahay ay mpit sa isang maliit na burol at mas payak ang pamumuhay namin doon. Pareho kaming Omega ni Chiromi pero mas payatin siya kaysa sa akin at sakitin kaya pgi naming kasama ang isa''t isa kahit saan man kami magpunta."


    .


    [FLASHBACK]


    "Hirhi, Chichi, kakain na tayo," mmbing na tawag sa amin ni Ma-chan at awtomatiko naman kaming huminto ni Chiromi sa palaro ng taguan sa likod ng aming bahay at naghabn papuntang kusina. "Uwah! Ang bilis mo tgang tumakbo, Hirhi-niichan!" Hinihingal na komento ng kakambal kong si Chiromi sabay sapak sa likod ko.


    Kahit na magkakambal kami, marami kaming pagkakaiba sa pisikal naming anyo. Mas matangkad ako kay Chiromi, mas mkas ang pangangatawan, at mas mainam sa kahit anongrong normalng para sa aming edad. Kabaligtaran siya nghat sakitin, payat, at mahina si Chiromi - pero sa kab nito ay masayahin siya at nakikipagsabayan pa rin sa mga kaedad niya. Mahal na mahal ko ang aking kakambal. Para sa akin, hindi nasusukat ng kahinaan ng katawan niya ang kabuskan ng kanyang puso.


    "*Itadakimasu [Let''s eat/dig in]!" Excited kong wika sabay kukuha sana ng mking piraso ng nilutong piniritong isda ni Tou-chan nang mahinang pinalo ni Ma-chan ang mga kamay ko.


    "Hirhi, ng beses ko bang sasabihing maghugas ka ng kamay bago kumain?" medyo galit na sita niya sa akin at mabilis naman akong napasimangot.


    "Pero gutom na po ako, Ma-chan," katuwiran ko pa.


    "Makinig ka sa mama mo, Hirhi," sita naman ni Tou-chan sa akin.


    "Samahan na kita, Hirhi-niichan," alok ni Chiromi sa akin habang nakangiti ito.


    "Haay, Chichi, kaya lumki ulo ng kuya mo ehgi mong binibeybi," dismayado namang saad ni Tou-chan.


    "Hindi po, Tou-chan! Masamang po tga asal nitong si Hirhi-niichan. ''Di ba, Hiro-Ugh!" Hindi naman nagawang ituloy ni Chiromi ang kanyang sinasabi nang pingutin ko ang ilong nito habang nakangisi sa magkahalong inis at tuwa. "Nakakainis ka tga," natatawa kong pakli habang hinihigpitan ang pagkakapingot ko sa ilong niya.


    "Aray!" Tumatawang remo naman ni Chiromi at pati mga magng namin ay natawa sa aming dwa.


    Ganito ang pamilya namin - masaya. Ngunit nagbago anghat noong dumating ang araw na kinatatakutan naming pareho ni Chiromi.


    .


    Nalakad kami pauwi galing eskw kagaya ng nakagawian. Nakasanayan na namin ni Chiromi ang magkahawak-kamay habang nagkukwentuhan sa mga naging ganap namin sa eskw sa tuwing kasama namin ang iba naming mga kaibigan.


    Marami ang nawiwili kay Chiromi dahil sa mabait siya samantng natatakot naman ang mga tao sa akin dahil mas sungitin ako. Pero kay Chiroming ako mabait dahil siyang ang nanatiling totoo sa akin sa kab ng masama kong ugali. "Hirhi-niichan, ano kayang nilutong hapunan ni Tou-chan ngayon?" excited na tanong ni Chiromi sa akin.


    "Siguro grilled mackerel," h ko.


    "Gusto ko ang kangkong!"


    "Yuck! Ang pangit ngsa ng kangkong!" nandidiri ko namang angal at natawa si Chiromi.


    "Sabi ni Ma-chan maganda sa katawan ang gy. Nakakainggit ka nga, Hirhi-niichan, kasi kahit hindi ka mahilig sa gy eh ang lusog mo," aniya na may halong lungkot at mabilis ko namang ginulo ang kanyang buhok. "Ano ka ba? Lki ka rin. Makikita mo, kapag binata na tayo magsinki na tayo at magsinglusog na rin!" pagpapkas ko sa kanyang loob at nasiyahan naman si Chiromi sa narinig.


    ng saglit pa ay bing nahinto si Chiromi sa palakad. "Hirhi-nhan..." nanginginig ang boses niyang tawag sa akin at taka naman akong napatingin sa kanya. Bi siyang napayakap sa kanyang sarili at nagsimng humingal si Chiromi kahit hindi naman kami tumakbo pauwi. Mayamaya pa ay nagsim akong makaamoy ng kakaibang amoy na nagmum sa kanya at nagimbal ako sa takot.


    "Chichi, ayos kang?!" taranta kong tanong sa kanya.


    "Hirhi-niichan... Natatakot ako..." nanghihina ang boses at umiiyak na saad ni Chiromi atlo akong kinabahan at prantik na napalingon sa paligid. "Halika, Chichi. Sumakay ka sa likod ko. Kangan nating makauwi kaagad," sabi ko kanya sabay inlayan ko siyang kumapit sa aking mga balikat.


    "Ano''ng nangyayari sa akin, Hirhi-niichan?" humahagulgol na tanong nito. "Ang init ng katawan ko at hindi ako mapakali."


    "Magiging okay kang. Matutulungan tayo ni Ma-chan," pagpapakalma ko sa kanya.


    Hindi ako sigurado kung tama ang hin ko pero masyado pang bata si Chichi para maranasan ang kanyang heat! Kangang hindi kami makakuha ng atensiyon ng mga Alpha!


    Akmang liliko na sana ako sa daan patungo sa direksiyon ng bahay namin nang may mabangga akong tatlonglaki. Mukha sng mga nagtatrabaho sa mga club at nang makita n ang kondisyon ni Chiromi ay nagtaka s pero bago pa man ako makyo sa kan ay naamoy na n ang pheromones ng kapatid ko at nagsimng magw. Pinayo n kami at pinign ako ng dwa sa kan na makpit kay Chiromi bago n kami din sa liblib na lugar. "Patahimikin niyo ang kasama niyan! Magiging istorbong siya sa ''tin," dinig kong utos ng isa sa kan sa mgalaking may hawak sa akin.


    "Hirhi-niichan!" Sigaw na tawag ni Chiromi sa akin.


    "Pakawn niyo ako! Chichi!" pagpupumis ko pero mas mkas sa akin ang dwanglaki na nagmistng mga baliw na nasasabik na atakihin ang kapatid ko. "Chichi, tumakas ka! Iligtas mo ang sarili mo!" "Hiro-Ugh!" Napapulupot namang sa sakit si Chiromi nang suntukin siya nglaki sa tiyan.


    "Manahimik ka, Omega! Ha ha! Ang swerte nga naman natin. Ang bata-bata pa ng isa ito. Masyadong payat pero hindi bale na. Basang-basa na ang kanyang likuran," parang demonyong turan nglakeng nakapaibabaw sa kapatid ko. "Huwag kang mag-la, bata. Magugustuhan mo rin ito."


    Nakita ko naman kung paano namu ang buong mukha ni Chiromi sa narinig at nagsim siyang bumhaw ng iyak. Para naman akong nabingi at mabilis na nagw. "Bitawan niyo si Chiromiii!" mariing sigaw ko pero napasinghap namang ako nang maramdamang may matigas na bagay ang tumama sa batok ko at pagkatapos ay nawn ako ng my.

    "Hirhi-niichaaan!"


    Nang magkamy ako, natagpuan ko namang ang sarili ko na nasa loob ng ospital. Umiiyak at humahagulgol na mukha ng aking mga magng ang una kong nasyan. Mabilis akong niyakap ng aking ina at hindi ko mawari ang kanyang mga sinabi. Ang ama ko naman ay tahimik na umiiyak pero bakas sa mukha niya angbis na sakit at galit.


    "Hirhi! Hirhi, anak!" humahagulgol na sambit ni Ma-chan sa pangn ko.


    "Ma-chan, kumusta po si Chichi?" garalgal ang boses kong tanong. May mga sugat at galos ako sa aking katawan kaya naisip ko na baka ginulpi ako ng mgalaki pero imbes na sarili ko ang isipin ko ay si Chiromi ang hinanap ko kaagad. "May tatlo ponglaki... mga Alpha s... Ma-chan, Tou-chan... s-si Chichi po b-bing..." putol-putol kong saad habang bumubuhos na ang mga luha ko. "Nasa''n po si Chichi? Gusto ko siyang makita."


    "W na siya, Hirhi." Kasabay ng pagbitaw ni Tou-chan ng mga katagang iyon ay mabilis nitong tinakpan ang kanyang mukha gamit ang isa niyang kamay at bi namang humagulgol ng iyak.


    Si Ma-chan na kanina pang nakayakap sa akin ay humigpit ang pagkakayakap nito at pinilit na haplusin ang likod ko pero huli na anghat. Naramdaman ko namang na natuyo anglamunan ko at nagsimng sumikip ang dibdib ko bago ako napahiyaw ng iyak. Nagw ako sa ospital noong araw na iyon habang ang mga magng ko naman ay pinilit na itago ang sakit na kanng nararamdaman at mas inuna ang kapakanan ko. "Chiromi... Bakit? Bakit mo ako iniwan, Chiromi?! Chiromiiiii!"


    [END OF FLASHBACK]


    "Sobrang hindi ko natanggap ang nangyari sa kapatid ko. Isang linggo matapos ang insidente ay sinabi n sa aking hiny din ako ng mga Alpha na gumahasa sa kakambal ko pero dahil hindi pa ako dumanas ng heat noon ay nawn s ng interes sa akin. Nahuli kaagad ng mga pulis ang tatlong Alpha at muntik pa sng mapatay ni Tou-chan. Hindi ko matanggap ang pagkaw ni Chiromi kaya makaraan ang isang buwan buhat noong mangyari ang insidente ay nagsim akong kumilos at magsalita na parang si Chiromi. Nasaktan ang mga magng ko at ng beses akong sinabihang itigil na ito at ipagdasal namang ang kaluluwa ng aking kakambal pero hindi ko magawang matanggap na w na ang pinakamamahal kong kapatid. W na si Chiromi. W na si Chiromi..."


    Wng tigil na bumuhos ang mga luha ko hanggang sa huli. I couldn''t exin how much it affected me. Usually, hindi ako ganoon ka-drama when ites to someone''s death but when I heard Chihiro''s past, I couldn''t believe that someone as cheerful as him had a painful experience with an Alpha.


    I wonder what he felt when he told me he liked me.


    "Chihiro, I¡ª"


    "*Ore... Alpha ga daikirai [I... really hate Alphas]," he suddenly said with such hatred on his face while looking at nowhere. Napapig naman ako at hindi nagawang ituloy ang bk kong tapikin sana ang balikat niya upang gumaan ang loob nito. Sa halip ay nakaramdam ako ng paninikip sa aking dibdib at bi akong natakot na magsalita pa.


    "Kinamuhian ko na ang mga Alpha magm noong araw na iyon malibanmang sa aking ama pero..." ani Chihiro bago niya ako tiningnan ng taimtaim sa mga mata, "...nakalimutan ko ang tungkol doon noong makla kita, Sensei," he uttered and it made me happy. "Nagt at nang ako sa una pero kahit ano ang pala ko sa sarili ko na ayokong magkaroon ng pagtingin sa isang Alpha aygi kong nahahanap ang sarili ko na nahuhulog sa ''yo. Suki desu... Izumi-sensei," he said those again with an innocent smile and blissful expression on his idiotic face.


    Doon kong napagtantong matagal na p akong nahumaling sa pagmumukha niyang iyon kaya hindi ko matiis na araw-araw iyong nakikita dahil nagbigay iyon ng kakaibang saya sa akin. I really thought that he was so stupid and a lewd, young Omega ogre but... Chihiro was more than that.


    [He''s so pure...] I thought to myself pero mabilis ding naw ang kilig na nararamdaman ko nang may mapansin akong taliwas sa lower half ni Chihiro.


    "Why are you getting hard?!" singhal ko sa kanya at ginapangan ako ng kbot nang makita ko ang nalilibugang ekspresiyon ng kanyang mukha. "Sensei... Aah~" Mnding tawag nito sa akin na nagawa pang mapaungol sa sarap kahit na w akong ginagawa sa kanya.


    [Shit! His moaning voice is! This is torture!]


    I was stunned when a waft of sweet-scented smell suddenly dispersed in the air. Awtomatikong bumilis ang tibok ng puso ko at prantik na napatitig kay Chihiro na namum na ang buong mukha at pinagpapawisan nang husto. "You..." I uttered and quickly covered my nose. "You''re in heat!" I eximed.


    "Izumi-sensei..." mahina nitong sambit at dahan-dahang lumapit sa akin.


    Dahil magkatabing kaming nakaupo ay mabilis niya akong naitk pahiga at para itong baliw na asong hinihingal habang binibigyan ako ng mswang tingin.


    "Chihiro, take your medicine! You''re starting to lose it!" Utos ko sa kanya habang tinutk ito pyo sa akin pero higit na mas mki ang kanyang katawan kung ikukumpara sa akin. I couldn''t deny that I got excited by the thought of him pinning me down but I couldn''t take advantage of the situation either just because he was in heat.


    "Sensei... Sensei..." He kept calling my name, like a yearning Alpha who went into his rut pero baliktad!Content is property of N?velDrama.Org.


    [He was the one in heat but why am I the one who''s getting weak?!] Inis kong wari sa isipan. My head was starting to spin and my vision was getting blurry.


    Just a heads up:  is the only ce to read theplete version of this book for free. Don''t miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey!


    "Chihiro, stop it. Umalis ka diyan at kukunin ko ang suppressants mo," I ordered him but he wouldn''t budge. Instead of moving away, Chihiro put his hands on my chest and pulled my shirt up, revealing my hardened nipples. Without saying a word, he sucked on them like a hungry beast and it quickly made my body react. "Aah~ Chihiro! S-sandaling... Ngh..." I was not able to hold back my voice when he kept sucking and licking them. Pinilit kong itk siya pero buwisit! Ang bigat niya tga!


    "Sensei..." Chihiro huskily uttered and I jolted when he gave me this lustful look in his eyes. He was brimming with desire all over. I have already seen that lewd look on his face many times but today was different. I couldn''t push him away. [I want his cock inside my ass,] I thought to myself while feeling my own hole twitching.


    "Chihiro, let''s stop this," pagmamakaawa ko at nagsimng namuo ang ng butil ng luha sa tagiliran ng mga mata ko.


    "Sensei..." Muli na naman nitong sambit at pagkatapos ay tumigil siya sa pagd ng mga utong ko at pagkuwa''y binaba ang suot niyang jogging pants. Lumantad sa harapan ko ang kanyang matigas na pagklake at bi naman akong napalunok nang makita ito ng mpitan. I have already seen that part of him too but...


    [He''s fucking huge!]


    I admit that I love cocks but Chihiro''s dick was bigger than what I expected!


    ?


    .


    "Aah... Haah... Chi-hiro... No more... Mfgh... Ahh!" I moaned while crying in both pain and pleasure. Sa huli, w akong nagawa at nauwi sa ganito anghat. Chihiro made love to my ass while doing it from behind. Dahil nasa sofang kami ay mahirap pero t balewmang iyon kay Chihiro. I shouldn''t be new to this kind of pleasure but Chihiro''s dick was so big that it filled me up right to the hilt.


    "Sensei..." He repeatedly called out my name with so much passion and lust.


    "Chihiro... Aah... Ahh!" I couldn''t stop myself. "It feels so good. It fucking feels so good. Aah~"


    "Sensei... Ugh." His thrusts started to intensify as he felt how eager I was while taking his cock inside me.


    Para na akong mababaliw saki niyang ito but the feeling of his hands wrapping around my chest as he would pound harder into me made me more excited than ever. Everything was a blur. I shouldn''t be doing this with Chihiro. He''s an Omega. Howe that an Omega made someone like me who''s a fucking Alpha - so wet?!


    "Sensei, sumisikip ka sa loob. Hindi ako magw ng maayos," gigil na saad ni Chihiro habang pilit na maging maingat ngunit nangibabaw ang nais ng kanyang katawan.


    "Ngh. Just keep going. I''m almost... Aah..." I said and tried to focus on the pleasure that my ass was getting.


    "Sensei... Sensei, suki desu. Suki desu... Suki desu." Paulit-ulit niyang sinabi ang mga katagang ito while wrapping my upper body with his big, bulky, strong arms. "Chihiro...!" bi namang akong napaluha nang maramdaman kong mpit na akongbasan pero hindi galing sa pagklake ko ang nararamdaman kong kakaiba. My ass started cleching up so tight and when I felt Chihiro''s dick get bigger inside me, it brought a tingling feeling to my whole body and the next thing I knew, he came inside me and I had a dry orgasm. "Aahh...!" I trembled all over. "Sensei!" hindi bumitaw si Chihiro sa akin at pareho kaming nanginig habang nlabasan siya. Soon after, we both went limp.


    "Uwaaah! Patawad po, Sensei! Hindi na po mauulit! Uwaaah!" Parang batang pumaphaw na iyak ni Chihiro nang kumalma na anghat.


    "You say that but look at what you did to me," monotonous at may halong inis na asik ko sa kanya habang nanghihina ako. I ended up not being able to stand. My hips fucking hurt and he came a lot!


    "Sorry po! Uwah! First time ko po ito at hindi ko m ang gagawin! Noong inatake na ako ng heat ay nangko ang utak ko atlo kang naging sexy sa paningin ko, Sensei. Uwaaah!" Umiiyak pa rin nitong pagpapaumanhin habang tinatakpan ang kanyang mukha sa sobrang hiya. He was sitting on the floor with his dick widely exposed.


    [It is no longer erect but damn, he''s just too big!] Mangha kong pagwaw sa isipan.


    "Whatever. Just quit crying. You''re really ugly when you do that," pagbabalew ko nang pero hindi ko maitago ang edad ko sa kinahinatnan ng kalibugan naming dwa kaya ako buwisit na buwisit!


    "*Gomenasai [I''m really sorry]! Hinding ako makapaniw na nagkatotoo ang mga pangarap ko. Sobrangndi ng mga ungol mo, Sensei, at ang libog ng katawan mo. Kapag sinubukan kong bas ang akin ay kumakapit ka ng mahigpit kaya akolong nasabik. Ang sarap-sarap mong pakinggan, Sensei. Sorry!" Chihiro uttered while shivering like a mad dog.


    "JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP!" I growled at him sabay hinampas ang ulo niya. "Why do you have to be so honest?! Fuck you!"


    Napapig naman sa gt si Chihiro but in the end, he kept pestering me about his first time experience on sex. Sinabi nitong hindi niya inasahang magkakapalit kami ng roles dahil siya ang Omega but he felt so excited that he just plunged himself into me.


    [Ah, fuck. It felt really good. Now that I have tasted Chihiro''s cock, I wonder if he will be able to keep liking me if he found out about my secret. Will I be conceited if I didn''t tell him that I was an Alpha whore who loved to sleep around? But I don''t want Chihiro to hate me.]


    "What the hell is this feeling?" I whispered to myself when I felt like crying as mixed emotions started welling up inside me.

    ISANG mlim at dismayadong buntong-hininga ang pinakawn ko sa kasagsagan ng umaga habang nakatingin sa myo. Kasalukuyan akong umiinom ng kape habang nakatayo mpit sa desk ni Chihiro.


    Napaigtad naman ako nang bumukas ang pinto ng clinic at ang mpad na ngiting aso niya kaagad ang una kong napansin. "Good morning, Izumi-sensei!" Maligalig at puno ng enerhiyang bati nito sa akin atlo akong napabuntong- hininga.


    [How should I put this? Ever since that day that we had sex... uh...]


    [FLASHBACK]


    "Hmm? Something really smells in here!" Sabay kaming napabalikwas ng bangon ni Chihiro nang marinig namin ang mkas na boses ng kanyang ama.


    "T-Tou-chan?!" gt na blas ni Chihiro at nahihiya pang tinakpan angntad niyang pagklake gamit ang hawak niyang unan. "Ak ko ba ay hindi pa kayo babalik kaagad?"


    "Oh? Naging emosiyonal kasi ang mama mo so we decided to go back immediately," nakangiti namang tugon ng kanyang ama bago napunta ang tingin niya sa akin. "Did you guys enjoy yourselves?"


    We couldn''t deny it. I was naked, too! I ended up sleeping on the sofa while Chihiro slept on the floor. No matter how you would look at it, we clearly had sex!


    "Um, let me exin," namum ang buong mukha kong wika sabay binalot ang katawan ko ng kumot. "Don''t me Chihiro. I pretty got-"


    "My heat came, Tou-chan," putol ni Chihiro sa akin athat kami ay pinakihan ng mga mata.


    "Huh? Hindi mo ba ininom ng maaga mga gamot mo, Hirhi?" nag-alang baling ng ina niya sa kanya.


    Mahina namang umiling si Chihiro. "Patawad, Tou-chan, Ma-chan. Hindi ako sinaktan ni Sensei, bagkus ay pinaligaya pa niya ako. Aah~" Sa isang ip ay tuluyang nagbago ang mood ng tanga at parang baliw na kinilig habang nagkokorteng puso ang mga mata nito. "Buong magdamag siyang humalinghing sa lim ng aking mga bisig at sarap na sarap si Sensei saki ng d kong-"


    "Chihiro, stop it! You don''t have to narrate everything!" inis at gigil kong putol sa kanya at naikuyom namang ang mga kamay ko bago ako tumayo. Halos mawn pa ako ng bnse dahil hindi biro angki ni Chihiro at dahil first time niya iyon ay hindi pa siya ganoon kaingat sa katawan ng kapares niya. Kaya heto ako ngayon at parang pinalo ng batuta ang buong katawan sa sobrang sakit.


    "Ayos kang, Sensei?" Mabilis akong inlayan ni Chihiro habang bakas sa mukha nito ang magkahalong pag-ala at pagsisisi.


    "Y-yeah," tugon ko bago binalingang muli ang kanyang mga magng. "Hiromi-san... Chidori-san, I''m sorry for spoiling your son''s first time. None of us wished for it to happen. I tried not to get enticed by it but in the end, his smell was really arousing," sising-sisi kong pagpapaumanhin. I did enjoy most of it but still, Chihiro''s family were good people. Ayokong mapunta ang anak n sa isang kagaya kong wng kuwenta. "Sensei..." aniya Chihiro habang naiiyak na ito.


    "Thank you for being honest, Izumi-sensei," nakangiting pagpapasmat ng kanyang ama. "But I hope you didn''t be mates with my son. Chihiro is too young to have that kind of responsibility,¡± dagdag nito at para akong tinaga ng maraming beses sa nais niyang ipahiwatig sa akin.


    May punto naman ang kanyang ama. Chihiro was too young and stupid at the same time. Having a mate with that kind of mentality would only cause him trouble. As an adult, I should have understood but... [Why do I feel a stinging feeling on my chest when his father tried to say to my face that someone like me doesn''t deserve to be Chihiro''s mate?] I thought.


    He was just being overprotective as a father and as a fellow Alpha, he knew too well how hard it was to be mates that doesn''t include feelings. I shouldn''t be bothered by it. It''s not like I have romantic feelings for Chihiro, anyway. "Yes. Don''t worry. His nape is safe," pagsisiguro ko bago ako palihim na napangiti nang mapait.


    "Hirhi, anak, ang mabuti pa ay magsuot ka na ng damit at asikasuhin mo si Izumi-sensei. Magmo-morning walk muna kami ng papa mo." Bing sabat ng ina ni Chihiro sabay pinulupot ang mga braso nito sa kaliwang braso ng asawa at hin ito pbas ng bahay.


    "Morning walk? We don''t do morning walks," nagtataka namang angal ng kanyang asawa pero hindi na siya nito pinansin at umalis na.


    Maybe Chihiro''s mom noticed my difort, I thought to myself bago ko tiningnan si Chihiro na wng kamy-my na kaninang ay binan ako ng kanyang ama. Hindi direkta ang pagkakasabi pero nangangahulugang nais nitongyuan ko ang kanyang anak. Maybe he sensed that I was no good?


    After that awkward situation, Chihiro remained attached to me like a dog. Doon ko na rin napuna ang mga matatalim na tingin sa akin ng kanyang ama. He started giving off negative vibes of disapproval towards me. Siguro nakuha naman niyang si Chihiro ang top sa aming dwa but that didn''t change the fact that he was still an Omega. Any Omega who gets bitten on their nape during their heat sex was always aplicated matter.


    Habang kapwa lutang sina Chihiro at ang ina niya sa tahimik naming pagsasaringan ng padre de pamilya n ay normalng na natapos ang bakasyon ko sa kan. They sent me off with sincere smiles on their faces but Hanamichi Hiromi''s gentle smile freaked me out to the bones.


    [END OF FLASHBACK]


    .


    And now that we''re back into our daily life, somehow I get goosebumps whenever I see Chihiro smiling like an idiot, unaware that his father just gave me a warning not to engage into any sexual interactions with him anymore. Well, everything would be fine as long as he drank his medicines.


    [But why do I feel guilty every time I recall that day?]Original from N?velDrama.Org.


    "Izumi-sensei, okay kang ba?" bing tanong ni Chihiro. Maybe he noticed that I was spacing out.


    "What?" Parang tanga naman akong tumingin sa gawi niya habang pinagpapawisan. The fuck?!


    "Mukhang mlim ang iniisip mo, Sensei," ani Chihiro bago ito lumapit sa akin at pagkuwa''y hinipo ang noo ko bago naman hinipo din ang noo niya at napasimangot. "W ka namanggnat pero pinagpapawisan ka, Sensei. Naiinitan ka ba?"


    Awtomatiko namang nam ang mga pisngi ko sa atake niyang iyon at inis siyang itink pyo bago pa niya mahta ang naging reaksiyon ko. "Huh?! I''m perfectly fine so go away!" "Eh? Pero, Sensei..." parang batang angal naman niya at sinundan pa ako nang makad na ako papunta sa clinic ko.


    Just a heads up:  is the only ce to read theplete version of this book for free. Don''t miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey!


    "Don''t follow me, you idiot!" mariing sita ko sa kanya at napaigtad naman si Chihiro sabay huminto.


    "Okay po," sabi nang niya at bumalik sa kanyang puwesto at nag-pout pa na animo''y nagtampo pa ito sa pagtataboy ko sa kanya.


    Akmang bubuksan ko na sana ang pinto ng clinic ko nang may dumating. Pinakihan ako ng mga mata nang makla ko kung sino iyong pumasok. "You... What are you doing here?" gt kong tanong salaking nalakad ngayon patungo sa kinatatayuan ko habang nakangisi ito.


    "Good morning, Aki," he casually greeted and even attempted to give me a peck on the cheek but I quickly backed away from him.


    Bi namang akong napatingin kay Chihiro atking pagtataka ko nang makita sa mukha niya ang gt habang titig na titig ito salaki. "Why are you here?!" inis kong buska salaki nang ituon kong muli ang atensiyon ko sa kanya habang nakakuyom ang mga kamay ko sa inis.


    Ngumiti naman siya sa pagkakataong ito but he still looked intimidating to me bago ako sinagot, "Remember the unused room sa may likod? I will be using it from now on. I''ll start working here, Izumi Aki."


    "Wha-?!" Hindi ko magawang ipagpatuloy ang nais kong sabihin nang sumy sa mgabi niya ang tuwa na may halong kswaan. I was about to ask him something when he walked away from me and went to Chihiro instead. He reached out his hand to my secretary before saying, "Hi. I am Arisawa Jirou." Pagpapakla nito sabay inabot ang kanyang kamay kay Chihiro.


    Kahit hindi ako ang kausap niya ay randam na ramdam ko ang tensiyong unti-unting namuo sa pagitan nng dwa. Hindi ko m kung bakit ganoon namang ang naging reaksiyon ni Chihiro dahil ito ang unang beses na nagkausap at nagkita s nglaking ito na nagngangng Jirou; the Alpha that I often have sex with. Para bang pamilyar na siya kay Jirou sa hindi ko maipaliwanag na dahn.


    Napanganga naman ako nang makipagkamayan si Chihiro sa kanya. "Hanamichi Chihiro... *desu [polite way of talking to or paying respect to people]."


    "Nice to meet you, ''Hanamichi-kun''," nakangising saad ni Jirou at inis akong sumingit sa kanng dwa.


    "What exactly are you here for, Arisawa?" tanong ko kay Jirou kaya napunta na naman ang atensiyon niya sa akin.


    "Oh? I haven''t told you? I''m an OB-Gyne and a pediatrician," pagsisiwt niya habang nakangiti nang mpad and both Chihiro and I were dumbfounded. "Actually, I have an assistant with me, a college student who''s on OJT pero baka na- stranded siya sa traffic,¡± dagdag pa nito.


    "Is this some kind of sick joke?" medyo natatawa ko pang tanong.


    "But I am not joking," he sarcastically replied.


    I balled my hands into fists in annoyance and decided to ignore him. "Whatever. Chihiro, the phone''s ringing. Answer it and check if I have scheduled follow-up check-ups today," pag-iiba ko nang ng usapan.


    Taranta namang napunta ang atensiyon ni Chihiro sa nagri-ring na telepono at sinagot ito. After that, I went inside my room and didn''t even look back. Ayokong makita ang mga ngiti ni Jirou sa kanyang mgabi. What the fuck was he thinking?! How did he get transferred in here?!


    And why did Chihiro looked like he has already seen Jirou? Posible kaya na nakita niya kami noong minsang pumunta si Jirou sa opisina ko? But I made sure that he didn''t notice because I didn''t want him to have weird ideas about the two of


    us.


    "Why am I even bothered?!" inis kong tanong sa aking sarili. This was really unexpected.

    CHIHIRO


    HINDI ako makapaniwng nandirito ngayon sa harapan ko anglaking minsang nakausap ni Sensei sa loob ng kanyang clinic room. Hindi pa rin malinaw sa akin kung ano ang tunay nng rsiyon sa isa''t isa pero mukhang matagal na niyang kla si Sensei dahil ''Aki'' na ang tawag niya rito.


    Noong makipagkamay siya sa akin, parang kumulo ang dugo ko sa selos pero naisip ko na baka mahta ni Sensei na may m ako kaya pinilit ko nang sumakay sa sitwasyon. Mahigpit ang pagkakahawak ni Arisawa-san sa kamay ko, t may hatid na mensahe at matatalim din ang titig niya sa akin. Nasasagap ko ang presensiya ng isang Alpha sa kanya, isang senyales na matindi siyang kban!


    "Pero hindi ako susuko! Ipapakita ko sa Arisawa-san na ''yon na matatag ako. Tama! Akinng si Izumi-sensei!" Determinado kong kausap sa aking sarili habang nagliliyab pa ang mga mata ko sakas ng determinasiyon ko.


    "I can hear you, you know?" bian at kalmado namang singit mismo nglaking nilibak ko.


    "Eek! *Sumimasen [Sorry]," nahihiyang pagpapaumanhin ko nang sabay nagkamot ng ulo.


    "Hmph. What an interesting kid. You must be an Alpha," t naiintriga niyang turan.


    "Isa akong Omega," wng pagdadwang-isip ko namang pagtatama sabay kumip ang mga mata ko sa sobrang pagka-proud.


    "Really?" aniya at pagkuwa''y lumapit sa akin at bahagya akong inamoy. "I can somehow grasp a faint scent of Aki on you. Is it possible that the two of you already had sex?" Nangbot naman ako sa kanyang mga sinabi at napalunok. "If I were you, you better stop dreaming for a happy ending, Hanamichi-kun. Aki doesn''t like being involved with Omegas. He already failed on his one-sided love towards his Omega best friend. Also, Aki loves to be fucked by Alphas. An Omega like you can''t satisfy his thirst for cocks."


    Galit ko namang kinuwelyuhan si Arisawa-san. "Huwag na huwag mong pagsasalitaan ng ganyan si Sensei," mariing banta ko sa kanya.


    Napangisi naman siya sa naging reaksiyon ko. "What''s this? Are you seriously in love with Aki?"


    "Ano naman ngayon?"


    "I feel sorry for you." Aniya at pagkatapos ay tuluyang naho ang kanyang ngiti bago bumulong sa akin, "Tonight, I will fuck him. Would you like to see him moan in pleasure as I plunder his ass with my dick?"


    Doon na naubos ang pasensiya ko at bi ko namang siyang itink sa pader at napaungol pa siya sa sakit. "Layuan mo si Izumi-sensei." Banta ko sa kanya bago inpit ang mukha ko sa kanya habang nanlilisik ang mga mata ko. "Hindi ako magdadwang-isip na patayin ka kapag may ginawa ka sa kanyang masama."


    Tumawa si Arisawa-san ng pagak pero hindi maipagkaka ang takot na bumakas sa kanyang mukha matapos kong sabihin ang mga iyon sa kanya. "You''re really one... interesting Omega," ani nito at mas namangha sa nakita niyang hitsura ng mukha ko ngayon. "Your eyes are burning with obsession, Hanamichi-kun."

    "WHERE the fuck do you think you''re touching?" inis na mura ko kay Jirou nang minasahe nito ang aking likuran matapos siyang pumasok sa opisina ko ng wng pam.


    "I am touching your butt," pilosopo naman niyang tugon at pinagpatuloy ang kanyang ginagawa, not minding that I was busy finding some liquid Omega suppressants. "Kapag nabasag ang mga bote dito ihahampas ko ang mga bubog sa pagmumukha mo," inis kong banta sa kanya pero hindi natinag si Jirou.


    "Aki-"


    "Stop being so familiar with me! We''re not even friends!" pasinghal kong putol sa kanya. "I never gave you the permission to call me by my given name!"


    "But I like calling you ''Aki''," katuwiran naman niya at bahagya akong idiniin sa shelf kung saan ko tinatago ang mga liquid form suppressants at iba pa. "Ngh!" impit kong pakli at siniko siya. "Get away from me, you pervert!"


    "Oh? Why are you so hasty? You act like an Omega who just made a pair with some Alpha," mangha niyang turan at kumulo ang dugo ko.


    "Fuck off, Jirou. Oras ng trabaho ngayon. If you really want to do it then go find someone else!" buska ko sa kanya.


    Napangisi naman si Jirou sa kanyang narinig at maslo akong idiniin sa shelf. "This is the first time that you denied me. Did you start to have feelings towards your Omega secretary?" interesado niyang saad at napasinghap ako dahil papaano niya nmang Omega si Chihiro?


    Ngumisi naman ako at sinadyang angasan ang tono ng pananalita ko. "What the fuck are you saying?"


    "You never learn," he said and I jolted to that. "You already failed once but now you n to do the same thing? Are you an idiot?"


    Marahas ko naman siyang itink pyo at nang magkaroon na ng distansiya ang mga katawan namin ay sinampal ko si Jirou habang nakasimangot ako at nangingilid ang ng butil ng luha sa tagiliran ng mga mata ko. "Stop talking as if you know me that well," medyo nanginginig ang boses kong saad.


    Napatawa namang ng pagak si Jirou bago itinaas ang pareho niyang mga kamay sa ere. "Okay. I surrender. Just call me if you need something," aniya at pagkatapos ay umalis.


    Inis ko namang naisuy ang kamay ko sa aking buhok bago inayos ang suot kong smin at huminga nang mlim.


    Am I that easy to read? Nababah kong wari sa isipan.


    "Izumi-sensei!" Kamuntikan ko namang mabitawan ang hawak kong bote nang bing pumasok si Chihiro nang ''di manng kumakatok.


    "Shit! Don''t you know how to knock?! Geez..." asik ko sa kanya at napakamot naman ng ulo ang baliw.


    "Pasensiya na po, Sensei." Medyo nahihiya nitong pagpapaumanhin saka tumikhim at umayos. "Ah. Sensei, may bisita ka po p."


    "What? Who?" Magkasalubong ang mga ky ko namang tanong.


    Hindi nagsabi si Khan na bibisita siya ngayon becausetely, he''s been so busy with Yuu-chan so who could it be? One of my sex friends? No. I already turned them all down and only Jirou kept in touch with me.


    "It''s me." Halos mangbot naman ako nang muli kong marinig ang isang pamilyar na boses at mabilis na uminit ang ulo ko nang sumulpot ang aswang na si Ryuichi.


    "Oh, it is you," sarkastiko at wng kainte-interes kong baling sa kanya.


    Kumunot naman ang noo ni Ryuichi sa naging reaksiyon ko. "What a nice way to greet me," sarkastiko din niyang saad.


    "Chihiro, you can go now," sabi ko sa baliw at namum ang mga pisngi naman itong tumango tsaka lumabas.


    "That guy is still here?" usisa ni Ryuichi na sinundan ng tanaw si Chihiro.


    "Regr secretary ko na siya." I said before crossing my arms. "Well, what brings you here?" baling ko na ngayon sa kanya.


    Napangisi naman ang asungot bago nagsalita, "Is it really bad for me if I told you that I wanted to see how you were doing?" he asked.


    "Huh?" I eximed while raising an eyebrow. "Go die," pabng kong utos sa kanya.


    Si Okuda Ryuichi kukumustahin ako? Ha ha! Baka sa libing ko, ''ka mo! This guy literally hates me and I hate him, too. We''re fucking even.


    "Seriously, Kazuki sent me here," pag-aamin naman niya bago pinaukan ang sarili niyang umupo sa bakanteng stik na upuan. "He''s worried." "Khan always worries about me," depensa ko naman.


    "I know," he said at bi ko namang nala na ang kumag na ito nga p ang nagsabi kay Khan na may pagtingin ako sa kanya.


    "You!" I suddenly uttered and pointed a finger at the bastard. "How did you know that I was in love with Khan?! Since when did you notice?!" pag-iiba ko ng usapan at nabuwisit ako nang ngumisi ang tanga.


    "Why bring that up? Did you chicken out when Kazuki told you, huh... four-eyed freak?" nagmamki nitong turan at mas lumawak ang kanyang ngisi.


    "You''re still calling me that?!" gigil ko namang singhal sa kanya.


    "Because you are," giit niya.


    "You are the freak one! Kung matagal mo na png nahta bakit kay Kazuki mo pa sinabi?!" buska ko sa kanya.


    "Because I felt that you would never tell him. You are pretty obvious, you know? When it''s about Kazuki you are damn soft and supports him no matter what but you are entirely different towards other people. I easily understood but I didn''t say anything because I somehow wanted to see if you would try to put a fight but you didn''t. I was really disappointed," mahaba nitong pagpapaliwanag.


    "What are you, a kid?!" I shouted. "I knew right away that I had no chance," I said but this time my voice was calmer.


    "That''s all?" he uttered in a bored tone.


    "No!" I quickly denied and continued. "Pursuing an Omega who already met his fated pair is suicide."


    "You knew him way earlier than me. You had all the chance," he said.


    "But he was deeply hurt by his past rtionship!" giit ko at naikuyom ang mga kamay ko. "Kahit kan ay hindi ko ginustong makuha ang loob niya sa ganoong paraan." "Oh? So, you''re a romanticist?" tukso naman nito sa akin at natawa pa.


    "Fuck, I am not!" mariin ko namang tanggi. "Stopughing or I''ll kick your ass out!" pananakot ko pa sa kanya but as expected, he wasn''t even moved by my words.

    Ryuichi was really a determined Alpha who never lets go of something that was already in his grip. We, Alphas, were supposed to be like that as early as three years old. I did have my own pride as an Alpha but not that strong as Ryuichi''s. I wonder if my upbringing had something to do with my ipetence.


    Was it because I had everything someone could ever wish for but never really got what I really wanted? I wondered.


    "Whatever. Since nakausap na kita at mukhang buhay ka pa naman ay aalis na ako. I hate looking at your face for too long. It makes me sick," aniya Ryuichi bago tumayo at inayos ang kanyang sarili.


    I instantly flinched to what he said at inis siyang sinagot, "You know, I would be really d if I saw you get plowed in the ass one day," pag-iiba ko ng usapan.


    "Nail me," pabng niyang tugon sabay binuksan ang pinto.


    "Fuck..." mahina kong mura.


    "Be more honest with yourself," pahabol na pakli ni Ryuichi nang nakangiti kaya napatitig namang ako sa kanya. "I will take care of Kazuki and Yuuki with my whole life. It''s about time that you look after yourself already, Izumi Aki," he said before finally leaving.


    Look after myself, huh? That was the first time that he called me by my name, natatawa ko nang isip-isip at hindi ko na namyang napaluhod na p ako sa sahig sabay tinakpan ang mukha ko ng aking mga kamay nang bumuhos namang ang mga luha ko.


    "I''m so pathetic."


    ?


    .


    Night came so fast.


    "Maraming smat, Izumi-sensei," nagagk na pagpapasmat ng isang matandang babae na may inalayang batang babae na medyo nanghihina.


    "Wng anuman. Just make sure that your granddaughter takes her medicines," nakangiti ko namang pala sa matanda.


    Tumango naman siya at medyo naluha pa. "Ang buong ak ko tga ay may mangyayari nang masama sa apo ko."


    "As long as she have the medicine mlayo siya sa gulo. Although Omegas who experience their heats as early as twelve is a rare case. She must be pretty shocked," pagpapaliwanag ko naman. "Naku! Iyak siya nang iyak, Sensei. Napakabata pa ni Yuri-chan para magdusa nang ganito," umiiyak na turan ng matanda.


    "I know," sang-ayon ko habang nakangiti nang mapait.


    Chihiro and his twin brother experienced the same fate and Chihiro was suffering his whole life... feeling the remorse of not helping his beloved twin, I thought to myself at palihim na napasilip kay Chihiro. Nasabas na kasi kami nag-usap ng matanda dahil pauwi na ito at magsasara na rin kami pagkatapos. I wonder if he could hear us talking.


    "Maraming smat ulit, Sensei. Pasensiya na sa ab. Kanina ka pa dapat nagsara pero natagn pa dahil sa amin," ani matanda at mabilis naman akong umiling.


    "It''s okay. Really," depensa ko at muli na naman niya akong pinasmatan bago s tuluyang umalis. Pagkaalis ng mag-l ay kaagad kong npitan si Chihiro. "Thanks for staying behind," sabi ko sa kanya at nagliwanag naman ang mukha ng tanga.


    "Anytime, Izumi-sensei!" ngiting-aso niyang pakli at parang nakita kong maslong kuminang ang palibot niya. Chihiro still freaks me out when he does that but he was consistent so I kind of got used to it.


    "Anyway, pwede ka nang umuwi," pag-iiba ko ng usapan sabay dinukot ang susi ng clinic na nakatago sa bulsa ng aking pantalon.


    Just a heads up:  is the only ce to read theplete version of this book for free. Don''t miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey! "Um... Sensei?" Chihiro uttered softly.


    "What?" nakataas ang isang ky kong baling sa kanya.


    "Suki desu!" namum ang mga pisnging sabi nito.


    I was taken aback by his sudden attack again and unconsiously blushed and averted my eyes from him. "You, idiot," I whispered and gritted my teeth.N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.


    How can I possibly treat this huge ogre as my ordinary secretary after what happened to us? I am still uncertain of my feelings but I didn''t want to take him for granted. I can''t...


    Just when Chihiro was about to talk again, bing sumulpot ang bwisit na si Jirou galing sa opisina nito habang nakangisi. "You''re still here?" inis kong tanong sa kanya.


    "Yeah. I had to clean my office thoroughly," Jirou exined in a casual tone before looking at Chihiro''s direction. "Hey there." Tumangong si Chihiro bng sagot at nahuli ko pa itong nag-iwas ng tingin, tanda na nang ito sa pagkausap ni Jirou sa kanya. "Wanna grab a drink with me?" bing yaya ni Jirou sa akin at pareho kaming nagt ni Chihiro.


    "But-"


    "C''mon, we haven''t done it in a while. I feel lonely," nakangiti nitong putol sa akin, sounding really creepy.


    Prantik naman akong napalingon kay Chihiro na umasim ang ekspresiyon ng mukha sa sinabi ni Jirou pero nagkunwari itong wng pakim. I knew he was just trying to be polite towards Jirou since he was older.


    "I don''t want to," tanggi ko.


    Jirou then walked towards me at harap-harapan akong hinipo sa akin likuran bago ako hin ppit sa kanya, intentionally bumping our private parts. I felt his hardness down there and was pissed off to see that he was still able to act normally.


    "Sige na. I''ll be gentle tonight. I promise,¡± he whispered to my ear and it brought a tingling sensation to my body.


    "Arisawa-san, sa tingin ko ay ayaw ni Sensei sumama sa ''yo," bing singit ni Chihiro nang mapuna niyang hindi ako ganadong sumang-ayon kay Jirou.


    Tinapunan naman ni Jirou si Chihiro ng matalim na tingin bago sinabing, "Mind your ce, brat." Awtomatikong napalunok si Chihiro at htang nainis sa itinuran ni Jirou.


    "Leave my secretary alone, Arisawa," inis kong sita kay Jirou.


    "Only if youe with me tonight," kondisyon nito.


    Kahit nabag sa akin, sumang-ayon namang ako. "Fine! Let''s go."


    "That''s my Aki," nakangising turan ni Jirou at binitawan ako.


    "Pero, Izumi-sensei-!"


    "It''s okay, Chihiro. I''ll be fine. Go home and rest," putol ko kay Chihiro. I saw him make a sad face but I had no choice. Even if I wanted to, I can''t be with him. Naunang nakad pbas si Jirou at sumunod naman ako sa kanya. "Sensei..." Chihiro softly called out. His voice already trembled, htang naiyak na ito.


    I stopped for a moment and slightly turned my head towards him. "Thank you for your hard work," sabi ko bago nagpatuloy sa palakad.


    Chihiro didn''t reply but I felt guilty for showing him a side of me that I didn''t want him to know. Until now, I never really cared how people saw me or what they thought of me. Chihiro was the first to make me feel uneasy like I was cheating or something. I shouldn''t be feeling guilty because we didn''t have anything special. So why?


    Why did I feel hurt when I caught a glimpse of him crying as he watched me disappear from his sight?

 SIDE STORY: 8TH EGO

    AKI


    "NGH! Aah..." I painfully moaned when Jirou thrusted deeper into my insides. He then inserted two fingers inside my mouth while pounding me from behind, making me muffle my moans.


    "You''re so sensitive today, Aki. Dahil ba ito kay Hanamichi-kun?" nakangising bulong ni Jirou sa akin at mas nkasan ang paggw niya sa loob ko.


    "Mmgh!" I groaned and forcefully pushed his fingers out from my mouth and growled at him. "Stop mentioning his name!"


    "Oh?" he snickered. "But you get tighter when I say his name," naaaliw nitong saad at mas diniinan ang pagbayo niya sa akin.? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    "Aah!" A loud gasp escaped my mouth as I buried my face against the sheets. "Fuck you, Arisawa."


    Jirou chuckled in total amusement and pulled me closer to him, making his dick glide into my most deepest parts. That made me moan again because of the sudden pleasure that he gave me. "You really are interesting. Good thing I found you," nasisiyahan nitong wika. And just like that, Jirouughed at me and messed me up until I almost passed out.


    .


    "Urgh..." I weakly groaned when I woke up. Izily grabbed my phone that was resting on top of the drawer at the side of the bed and checked the time. Napangiwi ako nang mmang mpit na mag-s dos ng madaling araw. Nang lumingon ako sa aking kaliwa aylo akong nainis dahil pagmumukha ni Jirou ang nakita ko. "Fuck this," I cursed and forced myself to get up and get dressed.


    Mabilis na nagising si Jirou at kinusot ang kanyang mga mata bago sinabing, "Where are you going?"


    "Home," tipid kong sagot.


    "But it''s two in the morning," giit niya.


    "So? Ayokong makasama ka dito buong magdamag," medyo inis kong tugon sa kanya at nang makapagbihis na ako ay hinarap ko siya habang nakangisi. "Don''t get too cocky on me." "Hmp," Jirou scoffed and let me leave. I had no reason to stay any longer. Besides, nakuha na ni Jirou ang gusto niya sa ''kin. We were just fuck buddies; Nothing more, nothing less.


    Sanay na ako sa ganito. And I shouldn''t let myself be disheartened if I were not treated nicely because I only approached Jirou for the sole reason of venting out my frustrations on him.


    ?


    The moment I stepped out of that love hotel that Jirou and I went to, bumungad sa akin ang mukha ni Chihiro na ikinagt ko naman. He had a worried expression on his face and he looked like he''s been standing here for a while now. "What are you doing here?" I tried to sound calm even though I was shocked to see him right after I was screwed by another guy.


    "Hinihintay kitang lumabas, Izumi-sensei," he honestly uttered and it stunned me even more.


    "Huh? Hinintay? You mean "


    "Sinundan ko kayo ni Arisawa-san," putol niya sa akin at napasinghap ako ng bahagya.


    "W-why?" I asked in confusion. He didn''t know that I sleep with random men. It was the only thing I wouldn''t want Chihiro to know dahil ayokong magbago ang tingin niya sa akin. A part of me didn''t want to ruin his purity and ignorance of the harsh reality.


    Chihiro is such a kind-hearted kid. Someone like me doesn''t deserve his admiration, I thought to myself.


    "Suki desu, Sensei," he uttered but unlike his usual erotic way of saying it, the Chihiro that was telling me these words now sounded hurt. He then began to cry.


    "Why are you crying?!" I asked in panic.


    He hurriedly tried to wipe off his tears. "Kahit ano''ng gawin ko, Sensei, ikaw pa rin tga. m kong napaka-immature ko pa sa paningin mo at kng ako sa experience pero totoo itong nararamdaman ko para sa ''yo, Sensei. Sana maniw ka." Saying that while sobbing like a child really pricked my heart. Why did he have to fall for me?


    "Chihiro, I..."


    "m ko ang tungkol sa inyo ni Arisawa-san," muli na naman niyang putol sa sasabihin ko and my eyes widened. "Minsan ko na kayong narinig na nag-uusap sa loob ng opisina mo, Sensei, noong isang gabi bago ka nagbakasyon sa amin." "Then... why...?" I began to clench my fists and I slightly bit my lower lip to stop my tears from falling down. "Why are you still saying that you like me if you already knew that I was a slut?"


    Just a heads up:  is the only ce to read theplete version of this book for free. Don''t miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey!


    "It''s because I really do like Sensei," he said it with a sincere smile on his face and it gave me the shudder of regret.


    "You''re so unfair..." I almost whispered and I finally gave up and cried in front of him. Niyakap naman ako ni Chihiro at ng saglit din kaming nanatiling gano''n bago namin nilisan ang hotel.


    For the first time, Chihiro brought me to his ce. Since it was cold outside, he served us coffee to warm ourselves up. W pa ni isa sa amin ang nag-bring up ng naging usapan namin kanina. Marahil ay kinakabahan din si Chihiro kagaya ko. After some time of sipping the coffee, I decided to speak. "Chihiro..."


    "Suki desu." Muli na naman niyang pakli and I saw him blushing. He was not blushing because he was horny but he was rather embarassed.


    "Let me be honest with you. Your father hates me."


    "Huh?" he then looked at me with confusion to why I suddenly mentioned his father.


    "Iyong nangyari sa atin..." I slightly averted my eyes. "Your dad warned me."


    "Paano?" nakasimangot nitong baling.


    You really had no idea, huh?


    "Kinausap niya ako at sinabihangyuan ka. Well, technically speaking, hindi kita basta-bastang maiiwasan dahil magkatrabaho tayo but he did tell me not to ever touch you or do those kind of things with you ever again," pagpapaliwanag ko. "At ayosng sa ''yo, Sensei?" he asked me this with a pained look.


    Napatitig naman ako sa kanya. "I really don''t know."


    "Naiintindihan ko ang punto ni Tou-chan. Nag-ala siya para sa kaligtasan ko at nirerespeto ko iyon dahil hindi naman ako pinaghihigpitan ni Tou-chan sa kab ng nangyari sa akin noon. Pero, Sensei, ikaw tga ang mahal ko." I slowly felt my cheeks getting hot after hearing that but I tried to hide it. "Please stop saying it so effortlessly."


    "Seryoso ako, Sensei," he insisted and showed me a determined look. "Ipalaban kita at gagawin ko anghat para magustuhan mo rin ako."


    "What? Chihiro, stop joking around," sita ko pa sa kanya kahit na kumakabog na ang puso ko sa magkahalong kilig at pagkamangha.


    "Izumi-sensei..." he huskily called out my name and brought hisrge, warm right hand to my left cheek and stroked it with so much passion. "Please trust me."


    "But this is wrong. This is all wrong," I insisted and I just started to cry.


    "Suki desu."


    "I am a dirty person, you know?" I added.


    "Suki desu."


    "Stop it, Chihiro. Someone like me doesn''t deserve that love of yours." By this time, my tears wouldn''t stop dripping and my chest felt like it was going to burst open.


    "Suki desu... Aki-san," pakli nito at maging siya ay napaiyak na rin at masuyong pinagdikit ang mga noo namin sa isa''t isa. "Suki desu. Suki desu. Suki desu." "Why me, Chihiro? Why...?" I sniffled.


    I can''t handle his honesty. This level of admiration is just so... absurd.


    "Because you are Sensei. Hindi mahga sa akin ang nakaraan mo, Sensei. May dahn anghat, hindi ba? Nagmahal ka din at nasaktan, hindi ba? Naiintindihan ko, Sensei." He said then he cupped both of my cheeks with his hands. "Marahil w pa akong m sa pag-ibig pero sa tuwing nasasaktan si Sensei aylomang akong nag-ala at hinihiling ko na sana ay sa akin ka lumapit kapag hindi mo na kaya. Handa akong makinig, Sensei. Yayakapin ko anghat ng kamalian mo at pagkukng. Ako ang pupuno sa pagmamahal na hindi mo makuha sa kan. Hayaan mo akong patunayan ang sarili ko, Sensei."


    Then I just broke down andshed out all of my emotions. Chihiro hugged me tight as he cried with me and silently listened to my deafening bawling. Iyon ang unang pagkakataon na mas naging mature si Chihiro kaysa sa akin. Nakakapanibago na masaksihan ang ganoong Chihiro pero isang mabigat na saloobin ang natanggal m sa akin.


    It was all thanks to this Omega.


    But is it really fine for someone like me to ept his love? Wouldn''t it be a one-sided thing just like that of my feelings towards Khan before? Magagawa ko kayang tugunan ang pagmamahal na mayroon si Chihiro sa akin bago dumating ang panahon na magsawa na siya sa kakahabol sa ''kin?

 SIDE STORY: 9TH EGO

    AKI


    HINDI ko m kung gaano katagal akong umiyak sa mga bisig ni Chihiro. Pagdt ko ng aking mga mata ay umaga na.


    [I ended up crying myself to sleepst night, huh?]


    Chihiro didn''t wake me up so I had to get out of his room and find him. I heard faint noises from a distance as I walked farther from the room. "Chihiro...?" I softly called out his name while rubbing my right eye a little bit. My eyes were all fuzzy probably because I cried for too long.


    Napaigtad naman si Chihiro sa pagsulpot ko at muntik pa nitong mabitawan ang hawak-hawak niyang sandok. Balisa siyang lumingon sa gawi ko habang namum ang mukha. "Sensei? Gising ka na p? Bakit hindi mo ''ko tinawag kaagad?" Sa halip na sagutin siya ay natuon ang pansin ko sa kanyang ginagawa.


    [Is he cooking? For real?] I thought to myself at doon kong nasimng maamoy ang mabangong aroma ng bagong pinakuluang kape at kakalutong na longganisa at fried eggs na nakahanda na sa mesa.


    "You can cook?" I asked in awe sabay umupo sa isang bakanteng upuan at tinitigan ang iba pang pagkain na kanyang hinanda.


    Nahihiyang napakamot naman si Chihiro sa kanyang batok. "He he. Konting, Sensei. Akong ang mag-isa dito at mahal ang takeoutgi kaya nagpaturo ako kay Ma-chan paano magluto ng mga simpleng lutuin," pagpapahayag nito at maslo pa siyang nahiya.


    "Wow. I can''t cook for myself," manghang siwt ko. "Not even simple fried eggs."


    [He''s a lot younger than me but he''s more reliable. It makes me jealous.]


    "Handa akong turuan ka, Sensei!" Chihiro suddenly offered with great delight on his face. I could even see smokesing out from his nose.Content is property of N?velDrama.Org.


    [He''s really cute when he''s like this, I felt chills running down my spine as soon as I thought of that. What the hell am I thinking? Acting all lovey-dovey like this over a food and so early in the morning, to boot? Am I going insane?! I was supposed to avoid Chihiro and stop giving false hopes but it''s the other way around!]


    Pinilit ko namang tapangan ang tindig ko bago tumikhim. "Anyways, you should''ve woken me up early, Chihiro," pag-iiba ko ng usapan. As expected, he reacted to that. The smile and excitement on his face faded away and was reced with disappointment.


    "Pasensiya na, Sensei. Naisip ko kasi na baka pagod ka at kangan mong magpahinga," he apologized and even felt so guilty as if kasnan niya kung bakit napagod ko.


    [You, idiot. Stop making that face. I should be the one to apologize for crashing in to your ce and even ended up sleeping over... right after I had sex with another guy. I''m the worst,] I helplessly thought. "Don''t apologize. You''ll make me hate myself more," I murmured but guess his hearing was too good.


    Narinig kong binitawan niya ang hawak niyang sandok at masuyong hinawakan ang mga kamay ko bago sinabing, "Sensei, seryoso ako sa sinabi ko kagabi. Iwasan mo man ako o hindi kausapin, papatunayan ko pa rin ang sarili ko sa ''yo. Isa akong Omega at sa mata ng nakararami, w akong kakayahang protektahan ang sarili ko pero nagkakamali s. Matibay ako at sinisiguro ko na kaya kitang protektahan!" pagdedera nito. "Kaya pakiusap... huwag mong kamuhian ang sarili mo, sensei. Nandito ako," he said those with a sincere smile. I couldn''t say no to that innocent face of his. Moreover to that very honest side of him. "Suki desu."


    "Chihiro..." I slowly balled my hands into fists and mustered my courage to speak up. "Can you please sit down for a bit?"


    "Eh?" naguguluhan niyang baling at napatingin kung saan-saan. I guided him to sit down on another vacant seat. And when he finally sat down, Chihiro was left skeptical and confused at the same time. How should I say this? [I got horny all of a sudden!] I eximed inside my mind.


    I stared at Chihiro for some time before kneeling before him and said, "I''m sorry."


    "Sensei?!" he abruptly reacted and got all flustered and excited. "H-hindi mo kangang gawin ''to!" he stated but I ignored his panicked expression.


    "This is who I am. I''m an Alpha who wants my ass to get rammed. Sorry for showing you this disgusting sight, Chihiro. But please... for thest time, let me suck you off and I promise I won''t touch you anymore or make any indecent moves against you," I begged while having an aroused and vulnerable face in front of him.


    I didn''t know what got into me but the more Chihiro showed how much he loved me, the more I wanted to desire him. It was so wrong in many ways. His love was pure... mine was filled with lust. I didn''t want to soil his love any more than this but he''s turning me into aplete mess.


    "Sensei..." His husky and deep voice uttering ''Sensei'' right now was enough to make me cum.


    "It''s okay. I''ll make this quick," pagpapakalma ko sa kanya at pagkatapos ay dinukot ang naninigas niyang pagklake m sa loob ng suot niyang pajama at bahagya akong natawa. "You''re already hard."


    T nainis naman si Chihiro sa tinuran ko at nag-iwas ng tingin. "Oo naman! Kapag ikaw ang gumagawa nito sa akin awtomatikong nagre-react ang katawan ko!" depensa niya sa sarili at halos mangiyak na sa sobrang hiya. "At hindi ka nakakadiri, Sensei! Bawiin mo ang sinabi mo!" he added and even pouted like a kid.


    "It''s really unfair when you do that," I chuckled and began to lick the base of his shaft.


    "Ungh-!" Isang impit at nagntang na ungol ang pinakawn ni Chihiro. I had already tasted and seen this huge thing he had but I was still amazed whenever I see it up close. The way it reacted with the slightest touch of my tongue... and how it would pulse when I yed with it. Everything about Chihiro was just so honest.


    And honestly too, I felt superior for making him be like this because of me.


    I continued licking the base up to his tip. Chihiro would flinch and muffle soft groans every time. With my mouth now open, I took his manhood in down to my throat, bringing me the choking pain and intense pleasure from feeling his erection all at once. "Mmgh..." I lovingly moaned as I continued sucking his rod with such bliss.


    [Why is he so big? I am so envious of this enormous thing he has!] Inis kong isip-isip.


    "Sen-sei... Ngh!" he uttered and his big hands subconsciously grabbed and pulled my hair due to the pleasure he was receiving. With Chihiro forcibly making me swallow his shaft whole only made me more excited than before. [I want him inside me!] I screamed in my mind. I wanted to feel his hot manhood pounding inside me so hard until I passed out. I want him so bad!


    After a few more rough thrusts, Chihiro finally came. He let all of his essence inside my mouth which quickly shocked him. "Sensei! Patawad!" taranta niyang pagpapaumanhin at nagmadaling humanap ng ipupunas sa mukha ko. May nahagip itong tissue at dali-dali itong inabot sa akin pero nagimbal siya nang makita niya akong lumunok. "Sensei...?" The horror on his face was utterly hrious. I wanted tough at him so hard but Chihiro was so cute I could pinch his face. "A lot came out," I said with a smile, wiping off some of his cum that went to my cheeks.


    Nam naman sa hiya si Chihiro. "Pasensiya na, Sensei! Nadng ako! Napaka-erotic mo kasi! Gomen!" sising-sisi niyang turan.


    "No. It''s all my fault so stop feeling so down while still having an erection," sabi ko habang nakatitig sa nakatayo pa rin nitong pagklake.


    Chihiro quickly concealed his embarrassing erection by covering it with both of his hands. He''s seriously adorable and unbelievably too earnest. The bully in me made me want to tease him more. "Kasnan mo ''to, Sensei! Bakit ba kasi napaka-attractive mo kapag nalilibugan ka? Nakakainis dahil hindi ko m ano ang gagawin para masabayan ko ang kalibugan mo. Gusto kong paligayahin ka rin pero kakaunting tga ang experience ko sa sex. Aaah~! Ewan ko! Suki desu, Sensei! Patawad!"


    "Pfft-!" I restricted myself fromughing out loud.


    Napating naman si Chihiro sa akin na nagtataka sa ginawa ko. "Sensei?"


    "I don''t know what to do with you," natatawa ko nang na ani at tuluyan nang bumuhakhak. Hindi ko na namyan na napansin na p ni Chihiro na tinigasan din ako sa ginawa namin kanina at hindi kong pinam sa kanya dahil w naman tga akong bk na mas paigtingin pa ang pag-iinit na nararamdaman naming pareho. I just had to suck him off because he was being so damn cute.


    "Izumi-sensei..." he softly uttered.


    "Hmm?" I stoppedughing and looked at him who now had his eyes looking down at something.


    "Maaari ba nating ituloy?" nahihiya pa niyang paghingi ng permisyon habang titig na titig pa rin sa ibabang banda.


    Taka naman akong napasunod kung saan siya nakatingin atking gt ko nang makita ang sarili kong nananabik na pagklake. It was twitching as hell. "Uh, ignore this. I''m going to take care of this thing myself in the bathroom," namum ang buong mukhang saad ko sa kanya.


    "Pero, sensei-"


    "It''s fine, Chihiro," putol ko sa kanya. "You can continue cooking or whatsoever," pag-iiba ko nang ng usapan nang mahagip ko na hindi tinapos ni Chihiro ang pagluluto kanina nang yayain ko siyang gawin ang bagay na ito.


    Before he could argue, I hurriedly went inside the bathroom and executed a deep breath. That was close! If I stayed any longer, we could''ve done it all the way. If we did, maslong akong mahihirapan na iwasan si Chihiro. I''m so conceited. I made him like that and now I''m running like a coward.


    This whole ce is filled with Chihiro''s smell. I should probably get out before I totally lose my control likest time.


    [Now that I think about it, this ce felt so cozy that it made me think that we were like a couple having a simple breakfast together,] I thought to myself and I felt like my chest was being squeezed tightly for some reason. "It''s scary..." I whispered before a droplet of tear fell on the bathroom floor.

 SIDE STORY: 10TH EGO

    AKI


    THINGS have been awkward since I went to Chihiro''s ce. I was the one who initiated to give him a blowjob because I became horny all of a sudden but then...Content is property of N?velDrama.Org.


    [Why am I the one avoiding him?] I thought to myself while taking quick nces at my innocent assistant.


    Kasalukuyan nitong kausap ang isa sa mga kliyente ko. Kakatapos kong magbigay ng prescribed medicines sa isang buntis na male Omega at kinukonsulta niya ngayon si Chihiro kung may avable stock kami ng kangan niyang gamot. I''m sure we did at mukhang nagkaintindihan s ng aking assistant dahil t napatagal ang pag-uusap n.


    They were both Omegas. Chihiro must be aware of the consequences of bing pregnant especially when you are a male Omega. Mas masn magbuntis ang mgalaking Omega. Although Alpha and Beta males could also get pregnant, mas mataas pa rin ang fertility rate ng mga Omegas - both males and females - kaya naman mki ang papel n sa mga Alpha na nangangangan ng maraming anaklo na kapag mayaman.


    Alphas have a higher rate of making Omegas pregnant and the very peak of sess is having sex with an Omega in heat. And that''s the reason why suppressants are very important especially to those Omegas who doesn''t have mates yet. They are prone to molesters and all sorts of risky circumstances as long as they still go into heat. They normally experience it for once or twice in a monthly basis but there are tons of factors that can affect an Omega''s heat abnormalities; just like Khan''s case before he settled down with Okuda.


    As an Alpha, I was quite fortunate for having a higher tolerance against Omega heats which benefited me a lot, knowing my line of work. I could never understand how hard it would be for an Omega to suffer when their heats became a burden not only to their body but also their mental health. Watching Khan going through all those pain before shattered my heart. I wanted to ease that pain but I knew that we wouldn''t work out if I pursued him, anyway. But I''m happy now that he''s found his forever and even had a child with that person. I may still dislike Okuda a little bit but at least he could give Khan the happiness that I couldn''t and probably, never would.


    "Ah, fuck. Why am I being dramatic again? Haa~" dismayadong saad ko nang ma-realize ko na napakyo na ng takbo ng aking utak.


    Nang sulyapan ko muli si Chihiro ay w na ang kausap nito. Nakayuko na ngayon ang kanyang ulo at t may sinust. I couldn''t believe that I''m observing him through a small opening at my office door. Sinadya ko tgang nakaawang ng kaunti ang pinto parang masilip siya. I feel like a stalker! Akmang uupo na sana ako sa aking swivel chair nang bing sumulpot na naman si Jirou at npitan si Chihiro.


    [Fuck! What is he doing here again?! Nilinaw ko na sa kanya na huwag papakiman si Chihiro! Inis kong isip. Should I interrupt them? But I don''t want to deal with Jirou right now. This is so frustrating!]


    I chose to observe and eavesdrop on their conversation. m kong mali but if Jirou tried to do something to Chihiro, I''ll definitely get out of here and chase him out.


    "It''s rare to see you alone," pambubuwisit ni Jirou kay Chihiro.


    Htang ayaw ni Chihiro sumagot pero may respeto ito kay Jirou bng nakakatanda kaya kumibo pa rin siya. "Hindi ako nag-iisa, Arisawa-san. Nasa loob si Izumi-sensei," pagtatama niya.


    "Oh?" Ngumiting parang demonyo naman si Jirou. "How rare."


    [Fuck! Shut your mouth, Jirou!] Nangangiti kong isip-isip. Sa sobrang galit ko para nang mababasag ang suot kong smin.


    "May kangan ka ba kay Izumi-sensei?" bakas sa mukha ni Chihiro na hindi ito komportable na kausap at kaharap si Jirou pero pinipilit niya pa rin na kalmahan ang sarili.


    "Nothing in particr," t nababagot na sagot ni Jirou at tinapunan ng mlaswang tingin si Chihiro. "Say, do you work out?"


    "Huh?" kumunot ang noo ni Chihiro sa tanong.


    "You''re no doubt an Omega but you have quite therge body and you don''t look frail at all," komento ni Jirou nalong nagpaigting sa pagkang ni Chihiro.


    "Sa pagkakam ko, Arisawa-san, wng batas na nagsasabi na dapat ay magmukha kang mahina kapag ipinanganak kaming isang Omega," matapang na dipensa ni Chihiro na kinabilib kolo sa kanya.


    "But screwing arge Omega is kind of," ani Jirou at nkbay ang mga mata niya sa kabuuan ni Chihiro bago tinuloy ang nais nitong sabihin, "a turn off, don''t you think?"


    I finally snapped and pushed the door wide open, both catching their attention towards me. Kapwa s nagt sa pabas ko kaya w ni isa ang nakapagsalita. "Get the hell out of my office, Arisawa!" singhal ko kay Jirou. Napangising parang demonyo naman ang gago nalong nagpainit ng dugo ko. "Why so ang "


    "If you insult my secretary one more time ako na mismo ang kakban sa ''yo. Don''t underestimate me just because I don''t look intimidating!" banta ko sa kanya and I subconsciously began to emit a vicious vibe around me; warning this another Alpha in front of me to back off.


    From the looks of it, Jirou had chills as he smiled wickedly, oddly satisfied by my reactions. "So you two have done it already, huh? And here I thought you wouldn''t touch your precious Omega secretary. How dirty can you be, A-! Urk!" Hindi na natuloy si Jirou sa panlait sa ''kin dahil sinunggaban na siya ni Chihiro. Pareho sng natumba sa sahig. Sinakalng naman ni Chihiro si Jirou. "Urgh-! Kkrgh!" Tinangka ni Jirou itk si Chihiro at ksin ang pagkakasakal sa kanya but he had no idea how strong Chihiro was.


    "Bawiin mo ang sinabi mo kay Izumi-sensei!" Dama ko ang poot sa mga mata ni Chihiro at higpit ng pagkakasakal nito sa leeg ng kaharap niyang Alpha. Jirou was no match for him!


    "Chihiro, you don''t have to-" I tried to pull Chihiro away but I was cut off.


    "Hindi maruming tao si Izumi-sensei! Ikaw ang marumi! W kang kuwenta! Ang m mong ay saktan ang damdamin ng ibang tao dahilng sa isa kang Alpha! Ano ngayon kung Alpha ka?! Kapag namatay ka wng magluluksa sa bangkay mo!" nangangiting sigaw ni Chihiro kay Jirou at sa bawat galit na nlabas niya ay maslong humihigpit ang sakal niya salaking nasa lim niya ngayon. Nagsim nang mangitim si Jirou at unti-unti na ring humihina ang pagtangka niyang kumaw.


    I had to stop Chihiro somehow. He''s dead serious about strangling Jirou to death! I panicked. I was running out of options. If I tried to pull Chihiro up, I would likely end up being pushed away myself. Nakapakking tao ni Chihiro. He''s evenrger than Jirou himself!


    "You can stop now, Chihiro. He''s... he''s dying!" Sinubukan kong kbitin ang balikat niya pero hindi manng natinag ang sekretarya ko sa kanyang posisyon.


    "Urgkk... Kffrgh..." Natigil na si Jirou sa palaban. Nagsim nang tumirik ang kanyang mga mata at nagsim nang magkapasa ang parte ng leeg nito sa sinasakal.


    "Chihiro, stop it! You will be in trouble if you continue strangling him!" sita ko kay Chihiro.


    "Hindi ako makakapayag na insultuhin ka nglaking ito, Sensei!" giit niya at hindi ko namyang umiiyak na p ito.


    Fuck. Fuck this. I have no choice then! Kahit na w akongmang sakas ni Chihiro, inipon ko pa rin anghat ngkas na mayroon ako at sapilitan siyang hin paalis. I was sessful and his hand got loose. "Sensei-?!"


    I cut him off by pulling the cor of his uniform and kissed him on the lips. Hindi nakapg si Chihiro. My kiss was a bit clumsy but I was able to pull off a proper one. I did it until he started to calm down. "Are you calm now?" I asked while huffing. Fuck. I think I got a little hard from kissing him.


    Namum ang mukhang tumango naman ang dambuh kong sekretarya. "Mm. Gomen," nagsisisi nitong paumanhin at iniyuko ang ulo niya upang itago ang realisasyon na ngayonng niya naramdaman.


    I turned my attention Jirou who was now coughing and wheezing, trying his utter best to regain the air and strength that he lost. "That''s what you get for messing around with us," sabi ko sa kanya habang magkasalubong ang mga ky ko. "Never show your face to me again, Arisawa. I''m cutting ties with you,"II dered.


    Kahit nanghihina pa ay nagawa pa ni Jirou na tumawa ng pagak. "Howughable..." he said with sarcasm. "I never knew you were this twisted, Aki. You never learn. An Omega broke your heart and yet you still hook up with another Omega? Ha! I give up," aniya bago pinilit na tumayo at napasandal sa pader. "Fuck that guy all you want. I''m sick of your wailings and annoying rants, anyway. I''ll get the hell out of this rotten ce. I don''t wanna be surrounded by retarded people like you!" Siya na nga itong nasakal at kamuntik mamatay, siya pa ang may ganang manumbat?! The nerve!


    .


    After that, Jirou took off without saying another word. Sure, he said a lot of awful things to me at the end but part of me couldn''t hate him fully. They were mean, hurtful words but I knew that he was bluffing. When I used him tosh out my emotions and forget my unrequited love for Khan, I could feel his warmth. He didn''t say anything but he held me so tight through all those nights and made me feel loved; at least he did try.


    But things were different now. In the end, we both knew that this kind of rtionship was fruitless. We would just end up hurting each other. This made me realize that Jirou was indeed in love with me all along. How could I not notice? He was the only Alpha who stayed by my side when I decided to cut ties with the others. The hate he was feeling now was because I wasn''t able to see through his true feelings. I did the same thing as Khan-only I took a person for granted. "I''m sorry, Jirou," I whispered to myself and clenched my fists.


    "Sensei, ayos kang ba?" nagt ako sa bing pagkibo ni Chihiro.


    "Y-yes, of course," I reassured and forced a smile.


    Just a heads up:  is the only ce to read theplete version of this book for free. Don''t miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey!


    I didn''t wanna go through all that pain again. I''ve had enough. And I couldn''t afford to lose Chihiro because of my selfishness. He''s starting to be special to me that it hurts. It hurts a lot. And I''m afraid to admit to myself that I am slowly falling for him. I couldn''t imagine the oue of my desires. He doesn''t deserve someone like me. But why...?


    [Why does my body yearn so much for Chihiro''s touch?]


    "Patawad sa ginawa ko, Sensei," paumanhin nito at hindi niya namyan ang papit ko sa kanya. "Nad ako ng galit ko at-Uwah!" Hindi siya natuloy sa pagsasalita dahil bi ko siyang niyakap at natumba kaming pareho sa sahig, nakapaibabaw na ako ngayon sa kanya.


    I purposely rested the gap between my buttocks against his bulge and that gave Chihiro an instant boner. What an honest guy, really. It''s kind of scary. Confused by my actions, Chihiro wasn''t sure what to do and looked everywhere in panic. We were outside of my office, after all. Someone might arrive any time and see us in this awkward position.


    "Fuck me, Chihiro," I ordered with a hoarse voice and even let out a soft moan when I rubbed my buttocks on his angry member. It was still inside his pants but I could already feel him getting even bigger.


    "Sensei..." he stated my name with a husky, restrained voice and grabbed my waist; probably to stop me from teasing his suffering manhood.


    "Please..." I begged. "I promise... This will be thest..." As soon as I said that, the aura around Chihiro changed. Something inside him was riled up and I could smell his pheromones. They were leaking out like crazy. I had no idea how but he managed to carry my whole weight and pinned me hard against the wall. It was forceful, like he had no care if I was hurt or not. Was it because I teased him too much? "Chihiro...?" I called out with a feverish expression and my eyes widened when I saw a scary look in his eyes. Lust was all over him!


    "Sensei. Sensei..." he uttered and abruptly pulled down his pants without putting me down. All he did was push his chest against mine to support my weight.


    When I realized what he was about to do, I tried to stop him. "Chihiro, wait-Aah!" A loud gasp escaped my mouth when he shove his whole shaft without warning. "Chihiro... Ngh! Mmgh~!" I groaned and moaned when he started thrusting forcefully. It was shocking and painful because he was big and we didn''t even prepare yet. But my body was eager to ept him.


    "Sensei...!" he uttered before burrowing his face on my shoulder and continued pounding me hard.


    "Aah... Chihiro-ngh~ Haah~" I could only respond with moans as I clung to him tightly. What the hell? I asked him to fuck me but didn''t expect him to ravish me this way. It''s still painful but I was loving the pain he was giving me. He didn''t fully understand yet how to pleasure his partner properly but his emotions were all over me. They were strong and uncontroble. It''s making me dizzy and weak. "Chihiro... Go a little slo-Aah!" My attempt to get him to calm down a bit was a failure. He kept pushing hard inside me, filling me up to the brim.


    [I''m gonna cum if he keeps going like this!] I thought as tears formed in the corners of my eyes.


    Losing my hope of talking to him, Chihiro went on and thrusted without stopping which in the end made me cum. Everything happened so fast that I didn''t notice that he came inside me. Everything was a daze.


    He carefully pulled out his thing after that rough and quick sex we had and carefully put me down on the floor, too. The next thing he did was turn his back on me and I think he tried to hold himself back from crying. I was too weak to even scold him for fucking me like that but it was no time to joke around.


    Because when I said that this will be thest - "Chihiro, you''re fired." - I meant it.

 SIDE STORY: 11TH EGO

    KAZUKI [Special POV]


    "SHIMADA-SA~N! Ayaw na ni Izumi-sensei sa ''kin! Uwah~!" bumubhaw na iyak ni Hanamichi-kun sa harap ng couch namin habang nakaluhod ito. "So... Why me?" I asked in confusion.


    I was surprised myself when Hanamichi-kun showed up at our house earlier. I had no idea how he knew our address but what''s more surprising was that when he told me that Aki fired him.


    Hanamichi-kun sniffed and tried to wipe off his tears, the pain and regret was written all over his face. "Hindi ko na m ang gagawin, Shimada-san. Ikawng ang m kong pwedengpitan," he said and bawled like a child again. "It''s ''Okuda-san'' (my new surname), Hanamichi-kun. But you can call me ''Kazuki-san'' if you want," pagtatama ko sa kanya bago bumuntong-hininga. "Did he tell you his reasons?" I asked calmly. Hanamichi-kun shook his head sideways several times and then went on crying.


    I knew Aki could be really childish sometimes but to actually fire his sole secretary and assistant at the same time without valid reasons was kind of extreme. I wonder if Aki started having feelings for this fellow? "Waah~ Goo~" Napatigil naman ako sa pag-iisip nang bi akong kinbit ni Yuuki sa binti.


    He clung to my right leg and asked for attention. Did he get out of the baby fence again? After learning to crawl, nadagdagan ang pag-iingat ko sa pagbabantay ko kay Yuuki. I initially nned to find a job when he reached six months old but Ryuichi insisted that I should just take care of our son full time.


    "Did you get bored with your plushy again, Yuuki?" tanong ko sa kanya sabay dinampot si Yuuki at pinaupo sa kandungan ko. "Sorry for that, Hanamichi-kun," pagpapaumanhin ko sa aking bisita dahil naistorbo ang pag-uusap namin. Inangat naman ng bahagya ni Hanamichi-kun ang kanyang ulo at tsaka nasyan si Yuuki. "Ah..."


    "Du!" Yuuki pointed at Hanamichi-kun na pareho naming kinagt. "Du! Du!" he repeated and this time, he poked his left index finger at Hanamichi-kun''s right cheek bago ito masuyong hinimas na animo''y pinapatahan niya si Hanamichi- kun.


    "Yuuki-chan! Aah~" Hanamichi-kun was moved by it and made him cry even more. I was moved, too. I wonder if Yuuki felt Hanamichi-kun''s sadness and tried tofort him?


    "I think it''s better if you cry it all out for now, Hanamichi-kun. Let''s talkter if you''re a little fine already. Okay?" I suggested and he agreed.


    I gave him time and space for the time being while keeping myself busy with my son, Yuuki. I couldn''t help him out if his thoughts were a mess. It''s best that I hear him out first before giving some advices.


    It took Hanamichi-kun hours to finally stop crying his hurts out. I couldn''t me him for that. It must have been really hard on him, so much that he took the bother to reach out to me.


    It''s now past noon and I''ve already put Yuuki to sleep so I decided to check on Hanamichi-kun once more. He was still positioned at the bottom corner of our couch but this time he rested his back against it. His eyes were now puffy and swollen from all that crying. I tried to call him earlier to join us for lunch but he didn''t budge.


    I sat beside him and started talking. "Do you love Aki?" I wasn''t a hundred percent sure but it seemed that way to me.


    Tumango si Hanamichi-kun ng mahina. "Sobra," he replied with a soft sniff.


    [So it was really like that. No wonder he was more than hurt. He wasn''t crying because he was fired. He was crying because he had no idea what he did wrong that led Aki firing him,] I thought to myself.


    "I don''t want to step in to your private life but... did something happen between you and my friend?"


    "Matapos ang away namin ni Arisawa-san, bi akong inaya ni Izumi-sensei na makipag-sex sa kanya. Mabilis na nangyari anghat. Hindi ko rin lubusang mala ang pumasok sa isip ko at sa isang ip bi nang niya sinabing tanggal na ako sa trabaho," Hanamichi-kun honestly stated. That took me by surprise again. I didn''t expect him to spill the exact details without hesitating. Aki was a blunt person but this guy was beyond straightforward.


    [Arisawa-san? Who is he? One of Aki''s sex friends? I told him to stop ying around alreadyst time but I guess things got out of control. And what''s moreplicated is that Hanamichi-kun and him already had sex. What was Aki thinking?] I deeply thought. This was no ordinary misunderstanding.


    "How many days has it been?" I asked.


    "Eh?" Hanamichi-kun reacted in confusion.


    "I mean, since you were fired, how many days has it been?" paglilinaw ko naman.


    T hindi niya inasahan ang tanong ko at nag-iwas ng tingin. "Mag-iisang buwan na."


    "What?!" I eximed. "Wait, seriously? And you haven''t tried talking to him?" And he shook his head sideways again. "F-! And Aki didn''t tell anything to me at all."


    [What in the world was their real rtionship, anyway? If Aki was this hesitant to even tell me then he was dead serious about Hanamichi-kun, I suppose? Wait... So he was secretly in love with his secretary all along?]


    "Patawad, Okuda-san. Gusto kong yakapin si Izumi-sensei ngayon pero m kong dadagdagng ako sa problema niya. Sinabi ko na papatunayan ko na totoong mahal ko siya pero sa huli hindi ko p kayang panindigan ang mga salita ko. Napakaduwag ko," he admitted and began crying again.


    "No. Don''t be sorry," pagpapkas ko ng loob niya. "Kung pinilit mo ang sarili mo sa kanya then maybe it will really be over."


    "Ano''ng dapat kong gawin?! Miss na miss ko na si Izumi-sensei!"


    "How about you tell me the rest of the story and how it all began?"


    That afternoon, Hanamichi-kun and I had a heart to heart talk. Everything he told me so far left me with a gaping mouth. I just couldn''t believe that Aki went all through this without me knowing. Did he went through the same hard times when he was still in love with me? How much more does he want to suffer? Hanamichi-kun is really into him. I could tell.


    [This can''t go on. I must do something and knock some realization on that head of his!] With that said in mind, I quickly got up and decided to see Aki myself.

    "Aki, start talking!" bing bungad ko sabay bukas ng pinto ng opisina ni Aki nabis niyang kinagntang.


    "Khan?!" He was taken aback and almost fell out of his chair. "Why are you-?!"


    "Lumapit si Hanamichi-kun sa akin. He told me everything. Why did you fire him?" agad kong tanong.


    Napalunok naman si Aki bago napabuntong-hininga. "And here I thought that he would go back to his hometown if I did that," t dismayado niyang turan.


    "Why are you punishing yourself, Aki?" may kirot sa puso kong tanong sa kanya.? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    "What are you saying?" at pinilit pa tga niyang magmaangan-maangan.


    "Stop pretending that you don''t like Hanamichi-kun. It''s killing you inside and it''s also killing him with regrets."


    "You think it''s that easy?!" medyo nagtaas siya ng boses at namuo ang ng butil ng luha sa gilid ng kanyang mga mata. Doon kong napansin na w siyang suot na smin.


    "I know it''s not. And I don''t me you if you''re having a hard time, too. But for fuck''s sake, Aki, you''re the one doing this to yourself! Hanamichi-kun... He''s been openly showing his feelings for you, wasn''t he? True, he''s young and clumsy


    and doesn''t have much experience but I could see that his intentions were genuine. He even told me that he hated Alphas but you were special. You were both broken, Aki. But Hanamichi-kun chose to love you still despite carrying a horrible past behind his back. Why did you have to cut him off like that?"


    Aki''s tears finally trickled down his cheeks. "Khan... I don''t know what to do any-!"


    Naki namang ang mga mata ko nang nawn ng bnse si Aki at bumagsak ito. d I was able to catch him on time. If I was a secondte, he could have hit his head.


    "Aki? Aki! Hey!" Tinapik ko ang pisngi niya pero w na itong my. Tsaka kong nakita nang maayos na namumu p siya at mukhang stressed. He must be thinking of Hanamichi-kun, too. I need to rush him to the hospital!


    .


    AKI


    WHEN I opened my eyes, nasw ako sa putting liwanag na nagmum sa itaas. Am I dead? No. The light wasing from the ceiling. But where am I?


    I couldn''t seem to move and my body feels awfully heavy and tired. Thest thing I remember was talking to Khan but what happened after that? Did I pass out?


    I traveled my eyes and realized I was in a small room and I was lying on a bed and something was connected to my left arm; it was a tiny and white transparent hose and transparent liquid was flowing from it.


    [Am I in a hospital?!] I screamed in my mind but my attention was quickly averted to the figure that was sitting on a stic chair and half of its body was rested on top right side of my bed. It was a man but I couldn''t see his face because he covered it with his arms but I was sure it was Chihiro. He had dark skin and curly, messy hair. I could easily recognize him even he wasn''t facing me.

    I was still confused why I ended up here. Sure, I wasn''t feeling good for the past few days. I was up for nights thinking about Chihiro and how to fix things up between us. I didn''t wanna hurt him like that but I ran out of options. But I didn''t expect to see him right in front of me just when I wished I could see him again.


    "Chihiro..." I faintly called out his name and raised my right hand to reach out for his hair but I was rather surprised when he suddenly woke up.


    "Sensei!¡± he eximed and quickly held my hand, carefully cupping it between hisrger hands. "Patawad, Sensei," mabilis niyang pagpapaumanhin kahit na w naman siyang ginawang masama.


    "No. I should be the one apologizing, Chihiro," I insisted and started to shed my tears. "I''m sorry for always hurting you."


    He repeatedly shook his head and tried his best not to cry. "Mahal pa rin kita, Sensei. Kahit ano pa ang gawin mo, mamahalin pa rin yata kita," aniya at pagkatapos ay napatawa ng pagak.


    [Why is he so cute and adorable?] I thought as I had the urge to hug him.


    "How did you know that I was here, anyway?" bing tanong ko.


    "Tinawagan ako ni Shima-Okuda-san," he answered.


    [Okuda? He''s talking about Khan, right?]


    "I see. I fainted as far as I remember," sabi ko nang.


    Tumango naman siya. "At nag-panic si Okuda-san. Muntik din akong mahimatay noong tawagan niya ako pero nagmadali akong pumunta sa opisina mo, Sensei. Ah, pero w si Okuda-san ngayon dito. Kinakangan niyang umuwi dahil kay Yuuki-chan," pagpapaliwanag nito.


    "So you were still at your ce all along?"


    "Oo. Hindi ako umuwi sa ''min. Patawad kung hindi kita kinausap. W akong mukhang maiharap, Sensei. Nangako ako na papatunayan ko ang sarili ko sa ''yo pero hindi ko nagawa. Hiyang-hiya ako sa sarili ko. Sorry tga."


    "Please stop saying sorry. You didn''t do anything wrong, Chihiro," I said and clenched my hand that he was holding. "What happened, anyway? I know I''ve been thinking about our conflict for days now but why did I end up here? I hate being in a hospital, you know?" pag-iiba ko ng usapan.


    "Ah..." Chihiro''s face instantly turned red, "um..." and now he suddenly felt hesitant to speak.


    I furrowed my eyebrows. "What?" atat kong pakli at binitawan ni Chihiro ang kamay ko at nagtakip ng mukha.


    "Sensei! Aah~" t kinikilig nitong tili.


    Nainis naman ako sa pambibitin nito. "Quit blushing and tell me what''s wrong!"


    Napaigtad si Chihiro bago humugot ngkas na magsalita. "Buntis ka, Sensei," he dered with a wide smile on his face. I froze to that and was left with a gaping mouth and stunned look on my face. I''m what-?!

    AKI


    I AM still baffled by the fact that I became pregnant. I mean... I wasn''t expecting it at all!


    Since the day we knew that I was growing another being inside my belly, Chihiro decided to take me to his ce to keep watch on me and make sure that I would not get stressed again. Muntik akong makunan noong isinugod n ako sa ospital nitong nakaraang linggo. Part of it was because of the early pregnancy symptoms I was experiencing and the majority was due tock of sleep and stress that I went through because Chihiro and I had a big fight. Thinking back, I didn''t be pregnant when we first had sex and he was in heat that time but why for the second time?


    "Sensei, pasok ka. Maupo ka muna, ha? Ipaghahanda kita ng makakain at maiinom," Chihiro offered with such care, even holding my hand to assist me.


    [Nabuntisng ako, hindi napy,] I sighed to that sarcastic thought just now. I knew I''m an irate person but these past few days, my irritability became more noticeable. I was aware of it but couldn''t help it at the same time. I wonder if Khan was also like this when he was still pregnant?


    Naupo ako kagaya ng sabi ni Chihiro. I''ve been to this ce before but I never had the chance to check every detail. I could smell Chihiro''s pheromones all over and it made me dizzy. Of course, he didn''t do it on purpose. Most Omegas do that all the time but they are clueless that they''re emitting their pheromones. That''s why they are prone to being attacked by random Alphas when they are like this on public. And those pheromones get stronger when they are in heat. But most likely, when Omegas emit too much pheromones, there are several factors to that: one is that they frequently go into heat or it''s almost their heat period.


    Bonded Omegas no longer experience heats and only their Alpha can smell their pheromones, too. But many say that a bonded Omega bes too dependent on his Alpha. If they feel the urge to have sex, they can''t calm down unless their Alpha tends to them which is why it''s burdening to an Omega to be separated from their mated Alpha.? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    But in our case, Chihiro and I are not yet mates. There''s still a high chance for him to be harassed by other Alphas and if that happens when my belly starts to be big, I won''t be able to protect him. It''s easy to say that I should just bite him the next time his heat arrives but it''s not that simple. I don''t have his parents consent and what''s worst is that his Alpha father doesn''t like me. He knew very well that I was no good for his son who gives in to love that easily, thinking that a happy fairytale ending was true.


    [I should face his parents before this bes controversial. And what about my job? If I stop now, Chihiro won''t be able to support the both of us... and our child,] I helplessly thought while drowning into my own worries.


    Kakaisip ko ay hindi ko namyan na nakabalik na si Chihiro. May d na itong tasa at tito na maymang ng piraso ng chocte cookies at maingat na inpag ang mga iyon sa maliit na mesa na nasa harapan ko. "Marahil gutom ka, Sensei, pero nakalimutan ko na hindi pa p ako nakabili ng stock na pagkain kaya iyanng ang maibibigay ko ngayon. Sana ay okay kang sa mainit na gatas," pagpapaumanhin ni Chihiro bago ito naupo sa tabi ko. "No, this is fine," I softly said, averting my eyes from his stares.


    "W bang masakit sa ''yo, Sensei?" nag-alang tanong nito. I just hurt his feelings not long ago but why does he act like I did nothing wrong? I shook my head without showing any hint of drinking the hot milk and eating the cookies that he offered which made Chihiro worry even more. "Ayaw mo ba sa cookies, Sensei?" he suddenly asked with a disappointed look on his face. "K-kung okayng sa ''yo pupunta muna ako sa convenience store para bumili ng makakain." "Chihiro, there''s no need," giit ko at napasimangot ako nalo niyang kinalungkot. Stop being so nice. You''re making my heart skip a beat here.


    "He he," he tried to alter the awkward seriousness around us by mocking a forcedugh. "Siguro ay pagod ka na. Gusto mo bang magpahinga?"


    "I''m fine now. You already took care of me back at the hospital. There''s no need to be overly attentive to me, Chihiro. You have done enough," I tried to make him feel better but that had an opposite effect on Chihiro. "Patawad tga, Sensei," he suddenly apologized and started crying. "m kong galit kalo na at hindi nado anghat. Patawad kung nasaktan kita, Sensei."


    "Seriously, when will you stop apologizing like an idiot?" I muttered but he must have heard it because he looked my way with tears still trickling down his cheeks. I took that chance and gave him a gentle peck on the lips. "I am not mad, okay? I''m just overwhelmed by everything," pag-aamin ko at sinandal ang ulo ko sa mpad niyang balikat bago huminga ng mlim. "I didn''t think we''d be able to have a child. Personally, I never thought of having one since I can''t be loyal to someone and I always yed around. And I was sure that an Alpha having a child with an Omega was slim." "Sensei..."


    "I''m gonna talk to your parents, Chihiro. I have to clear things up and face all of these like a real man," determinado kong saad at hinarap siyang muli. "I will be frank to you. I am still unsure of my own feelings but thinking that I might lose you one day gave me a fright."


    With that said, Chihiro gave me a sudden torrid kiss. He was strong so I was easily pushed down on the couch when he leaned forward while kissing me hungrily. I had no time to react and ended up responding to his longing. Because I was longing for him, too.


    "Aki-sensei..." Chihiro called out between our kisses. He was rubbing his front bulge against me, telling me how aroused he was. Ah, fuck. I want that cock inside me this moment but I can''t.


    "It''s ''Aki'', Chihiro..." I breathed before cupping both of his cheeks and made him look into my eyes. "You are now forbidden to call me ''Sensei'' starting today." His eyes literally glittered upon hearing that and I just felt his manhood get hard. He''s ridiculously honest - both him and his cock!


    I thought he''d cry out loud like a freaking kid again but instead, he smiled with satisfaction. "*Aishiteiru, Aki [I love you, Aki]," he uttered this very softly, almost like a whisper in my ear and that made me extremely happy I could cry. Well, technically, I did cry a little bit. What was that for? That took me by surprise


    Umiiyak na pinahid ko ang aking mga luha habang panay ang pagtawa ko ng pagak. "Shit. I''m getting a little too emotional, don''t you think?" sabi ko sa kanya at mas napangiti si Chihiro. "Aishiteiru..." pag-uulit nito at tuluyan akong napaiyak nang husto bago ko pinulupot ang aking mga braso sa kanyang leeg. "Aishiteiru, Aki."


    "Thank you very much, Chihiro," I said softly between my cries and we both cried together.

    Ah. I feel so happy. This is too much. It''s kind of weird to feel this way after all that I''ve done to this young man. Yet, he epted me without thinking twice. I''m really loved.


    ?


    ?


    "Sa pagkakala ko, mariin kong nilinaw na lubayan mo na ang anak ko."


    Nandito kami ngayon sa harap ng mga magng ni Chihiro. We just dered that we were going to have a child soon and that we''re not even mates yet. As expected, Chihiro''s father gave us a disapproving look while his mom looked confused. "I''m sorry for breaking my promise, Hanamichi-san," I sincerely apologized. "But I¡ª"


    "What were the two of you thinking?! Ang mla pa hindi pa kayo mates!" Nagtaas ng boses si Hiromi-san na ikinagt naminghat. Gigil na gigil ito na para bang gusto niya akong sunggaban pero dahil m na nitong buntis ako ay nagpigil siya. "Nakakasiguro ako na m mo na ang nangyari sa anak ko noon. Paano ako makakasiguro na iingatan mo siya at hindi sasaktan kagaya ng mga ginawa ng mga bastardong Alpha sa kanya noon?!" "Tou-chan..." tinangka ni Chihiro na magsalita pero nanaig ang galit ng kanyang ama sa mga sandaling ito.


    "Manahimik ka, Chihiro! Bakit ka nagpadalos-dalos? m mo namang mahirap sa isang Omega na wng mate at binuntis mo pa tga siya!" halos sumabog na ang mukha nito sa galit.


    Nasulyapan ko naman si Chihiro na napakuyom ng mga kamay bago ito nagsalita, "Tou-chan, mahal ko si Aki," giit nito.


    "Aki?" nagtaas ng ky ang kanyang ama. "Hindi ba''t mas matanda sa iyo ang Alpha na ito? Bakit napaka-kaswal na ng tawag mo sa kanya?"


    "Hiromi..." sinubukan naman ni Chidori-san na pakalmahin ang asawa sa pamamagitan ng paghawak niya sa mga kamay nito pero t hindi ito umubra.


    "Hindi nasasagot ng pagmamahal anghat, anak," ani Hiromi-san. "Ang pagpili ng mate at pagkakaroon ng anak ay seryosong desisyon. Ni isa sa dwa ay hindi n''yo pinag-isipan nang mabuti," at doon siya nagsimng maluha ng bahagya. "Ayoko na makita kang nasasaktan ulit, Chihiro. Masakit sa loob ko na w akong magawa para maibsan ang pagdudusa mo noon at hanggang ngayon w pa rin akong magawa."


    Just a heads up:  is the only ce to read theplete version of this book for free. Don''t miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey!


    "Tou-chan..." tuluyan namang naiyak si Chihiro. "Patawad, Tou-chan, Ma-chan... Nagkas po ako at pareho ko kayong nasaktan pero maniw po kayo, mahal na mahal ko po kayo at nagpapasmat ako na kayo ang mga naging magng ko. Ginawa n''yo anghat para mapasaya ako kahit sa simpleng paraan. Hindi ko intensiyon na saktan kayo o magrebelde. Hinding-hindi ko kayang gawin iyon sa inyo. Oo, minadali naminhat at kapwa kami wng m kung ano ang gagawin pero maniw kayo, hindi ako pababayaan ni Aki at hindi ko rin siya pababayaan."


    [Chihiro... Why are you so brave?] Hangang-hanga kong isip habang nakatitig kay Chihiro.


    "Izumi-sensei, ano ang bk mo? Sapatng ba sa ''yo na mman namin? Paano ang sarili mong pamilya?" bing sabat ni Chidori-san sa usapan na ikinagi ko.


    "I have no ns on telling them," halos pabulong ko itong winika. Sabay-sabay naman sng nagkatinginan bago natuonhat ng titig n sa akin. Bakas sa mukha ng ama ni Hiromi-san ang pagdududa samantng nag-la namanlo si Chidori-san.


    "Aki...?" napatingin si Chihiro sa akin. Maging siya ay nalito sa sinabi ko. Kahit kan ay hindi ko naibanggit sa kanya ang tungkol sa mga magng ko.


    A frightened expression suddenly enveloped my whole face as I looked at their eyes. Hindi ko maipaliwanag ang eksaktong dahn. Paano ko ba ipapaintindi sa kan na matapobre ang mga magng ko? They expected high from me since the day I was ssified as an Alpha. They wanted me to be someone that everyone would look up to. But I didn''t be that person. Kaya naman itinakwil n ako matagal na. Well, not literally disowned me but that was how it seemed to me when they were so opposed to the career that I chose. They didn''t want me to be a doctor. My Alpha father wanted me to be his heir and so did my Alpha mother. To them, I was nothing but their doll. They''ve manipted me to be a trashy Alpha like they were. Too bad my urge to be fucked was more dominant.


    I was nothing but a failure to my oh-so-great Alpha parents.


    "I... I can''t tell you the details but I''m certain they won''t care anyway," pag-iiba ko ng usapan sabay nag-iwas ng tingin.


    "I''ll assume na ikawng ang nag-iisa nng anak at hindi mo sinunod ang gusto nng mangyari kaya ganyan nang ang takot mong pag-usapan s," hinuha ni Hiromi-san. He was so fucking right!


    "Hiromi, bigyan natin s ng oras at pagkakataon na lutasin anghat. Hindi natin maaaring pabayaan si Izumi-sensei. Handa akong tulungan siya sa panahon ng kanyang pagbubuntis," ani Chidori-san na medyo kinakalma ko ng kaunti. How I wish my mother was like that, too.


    Nagkatinginan kaminghat bago napabuntong-hininga si Hiromi-san. I didn''t know if it was a sigh of dismay or a sigh of defeat because he didn''t wanna argue with his partner.


    He then looked at me intently. It was stern but there was no ferocity or hatred. "Fine. Tutulungan namin kayo na lutasin ito. I am still against it though but I will give you two a chance to prove yourselves," he dered and that relieved my heart for some reason.


    "Maraming smat, Tou-chan!" nagagk na ani ni Chihiro.


    "You two will live here until you''ve made up your minds na panagutan ang pinagbubuntis ni Izumi-san and decide to be mates for life," pahabol na saad ni Hiromi-san. And all of jaws dropped, including Chihiro''s mother.

 SIDE STORY: 13TH EGO

    AKI


    IT''S BEEN now a week since Chihiro and I started living with his parents. Sa edad naming ito, nakakahiya at hindi ko maipaliwanag ang pagkabalisa ko. Maraming maaaring mangyari. m kong nag-alang naman s sa kgayan ko at mas marami na sng napagdaanan na problema pagdating sa pagkakaroon ng mate at anak pero hindi ko maiwasang maasiwa sa tuwing kausap ko si Hiromi-san.


    Bng isang kapwa Alpha, I could still feel his reluctance towards me and my feelings for his son. Well... he should be. I haven''t even admitted what I really felt towards Chihiro and what''s worst is that we''re now expecting a child. "Pasensiya ka na tga kay Hiromi, Izumi-san," bing paumanhin sa akin ni Chidori-san nang mapuna nito na mukhang mlim ang iniisip ko.


    Nakita niya akong nakatla habang nakaupo sa sofa ng kanng s. Kasalukuyang nasabas si Chihiro at inaasikaso ang mini garden ng kanyang ina. Napansin ko rin na naging mads ang pag-ala sa akin ni Chidori-san. Hindi paman lubos na mpit ang loob namin sa isa''t isa, randam ko na handa siyang tanggapin ako kung sakaling magiging mates na kami ng anak niya.


    "It''s fine, really. Please stop apologizing," medyo ngan kong saad at pagkatapos ay naupo si Chidori-san sa tabi ko bago ito napabuntonghininga.


    "Napakahirap maging isang Omega," pagsisim nito na may halong kirot sa kanyang boses at ekspresiyon. "Noong una kong mman na isa akong Omega, nanliit ang tingin ko sa sarili ko. Napakki kong tao at kita naman siguro na aakin ng marami na isa akong Alpha dahil sa tindig ko at hubog ng aking katawan. Hindi rin ako ganoon ka-attractive. Minsan, ang mga Omega na katd namin ni Hirhi ay mads na nabu-bully. Halos mandiri ang ibang Alpha na tumingin sa amin dahil sa maraming kadahnan: ang iba ay natatakot sa amin at ang iba naman ay iniisip na hindi dapat na ganito ang hitsura ng isang Omega male," mahabang ani nito at medyo natawa pa sya sa huli niyang sinabi. "That''s "I was about to say something when Chidori-san looked at me with a smile.


    "Pero naw anghat ng takot ko nang makla ko si Hiromi," aniya at nagpatuloy sa pagsasalita. "m kong nahihirapan ka ngayon sa sitwasiyon n''yong dwa ng anak ko. At hindi ko itatanggi na may pagkukng din si Hirhi pero Izumi-san, kung natatakot ka, nanditong kami. Maaari mo kamingpitan kahit anumang oras. Handa akong mag-abot ng payo kahit na hindi ako isang perpektong tao. Kung may pag-aalingan ka, sabihin mo kay Hirhi. Hindi pa ganoon ka-mature ang anak namin pero buo ang loob ko na hindi ka niya pababayaan dahil pinki namin siya na matatag at tapat sa sarili."


    I couldn''t say anything back. He was right. I saw how Chihiro showed his love for me. All this time, he''s been honest and true to himself and all I did was ignore him and mock his kindness because I found it stupid. But in reality, I was afraid of how he can be so na?ve, pure and innocent... without a care what would others say. Maybe it was somehow affecting him but he chose to fight his fear ang believed no matter what. He never gave up in life.


    He never gave up on me.


    And it was something I haven''t done in my entire life. When I lost the battle on the Omega that I once loved, sumuko kaagad ako nang matagpuan niya ang nakatadhana para sa kanya. I even hid the truth for so long. All I was doing this entire time was be selfish towards everyone around me. All because I was afraid of not gaining anything in return. I was afraid my feelings won''t be reciprocated. I was such a big coward and the greatest scumbag of them all. [Angkas ko pang mait kay Okuda,] I thought to myself while chuckling softly.


    "I''m so sorry," mahina kong saad at napalingon si Chidori-san sa akin na may halong pagtataka sa kanyang mukha. "I''m so sorry that your son fell in love with someone like me. I don''t deserve his earnest and pure intentions. All I did was mock and hurt him. I tried to push him aside many times but that didn''t stop him from liking me. I found it so stupid and unrealistic until I slowly admired that side of him. I''m so sorry."


    "Izumi-san... ayosng magkamali," he said and I felt this sting in my chest suddenly fade away as if nabunutan ako ng tinik. "Nakakasiguro ako na maiintindihan ka ni Hirhi sa oras na ipinaliwanag mo anghat. Maboka ang anak kong iyon kaya kangan tga na sabihin mo nang maayos ang nais mong iparating sa kanya para lubos niyang maintindihan. Sa oras na ipinadama mo sa kanya na may puwang siya sa puso mo, mamahalin ka niyalo."


    .


    Pagkatapos namin mag-usap ay umalis na si Chidori-san. Mayamaya pa ay pumasok na si Chihiro. Pawisan ito at marumi na ang kanyang damit. Hindi niya napansin na nasa s ako kaya pumanhik ito sa taas, papunta sa kanyang kuwarto upang magbihis. I silently followed him, tried not to make any unnecessary noise as possible as I could.


    Chihiro had a tendency of not closing the door to his room when he enters kaya naman ako na ang nagsara nito nang masiguro kong dumiretso siya sa banyo para maligo. I still kept silent and careful that he wouldn''t hear me. Hindi ko m kung bakit ko ''to ginagawa at kung para saan.


    Nang marinig ko na naliligo na siya ay napatingin ako sa kanyang kama. His parents let us sleep together but believe me or not, Chihiro hasn''t done anything sexual to me since we lived here. Siguro nahihiya siya sa kanyang mga magng o baka natatakotng siya na may mangyari sa aking masama.


    Tahimik akong nahiga sa kama. It still smelled like Chihiro. Since he''s an Omega and my sense of smell has be more sensitive after getting pregnant, I could smell his pheromones in this entire room. It''s soothing and tempting at the same time. And I know he had no idea that he''s been releasing a lot of pheromones,tely. This might also be a sign that his next heat was near. If we kept sleeping in one bed, I may not be able to control myself. And I''m pretty sure that his parents knew the circumstances too and yet, they let us be this close.


    [Also, it could be that his father is testing me if I really care about Chihiro at all,] I thought to myself without realizing that I buried my face into Chihiro''s pillow to muffle my frustrated scream that I was about to release but didn''t. "Chihiro..." I mumbled his name so softly, droplets of tears forming in the corner of my eyes. I don''t know what to do anymore, honestly. I don''t want to say that I like him that easily and not even sure if I mean it. What am I so afraid of? "Aki-san...?" For some reason, he started calling me ''Aki-san'' because his father told him to be polite towards me.


    Napaigtad ako nang marinig ko ang boses nglaking kanina ko pang nililibak. I couldn''t help but blush when I saw his naked half body, giving me a clear view of his strong and muscr build. Hindi ko inasahan na matatapos ito kaagad sa pagligo. "Chihiro!" I eximed and went into panic. I needed a valid excuse! He''ll think that I''m too perverted despite being dishonest with my feelings. "I didn''t know that you were here. I came up because I felt like sleeping for a little bit." What ame lie. Even if it was true, I would be able to hear the noise of the shower kaya w akong kaw sa kasinungalingan kong ito. To my surprise, Chihiro gave me a sweet smile.


    "May masakit ba sa ''yo? Kung nagugutom ka pwede kitang ipaghanda ng makakain. Ah, baka may gusto kang ipabili?" he offered with such gentleness on his voice and that innocent expression on his face. How could I resist such kindness?! "I''m fine," sabi ko nang sabay nag-iwas ng tingin.


    He started to worry before realizing something. "Magbibihisng ako saglit, Aki-san," la niya nang mapansin nitong panay ang tingin ko sa kabuuan niya. Bahagya siyang tumalikod sa akin at literal na inalis ang tuwalyang ginamit niyang pangtakip sa kanyang pribadong parte. Ako naman ay pinakihan ng mga mata because he was fully aware that I could see him, right?


    "Chi...hiro...?" I uttered hesitantly while staring right at his exposed butt.


    "Hmm?" the idiot responded without looking at my direction.


    [Is he teasing me on purpose?!] I shouted inside my mind while blushing like crazy.


    "Should I wait outside?" I offered. Hiyang-hiya naman ako sa kawnghiyaan ng isang ''to!


    Mabilis namang napalingon si Chihiro sa gawi ko bago sinabing, "Ah, hindi! Okayng na nandito ka, Aki-san!" katuwiran nito at marahil ay nakaramdam din siya ng kaunting hiya dahil tinakpan niya ang kanyang lower half gamit ang tuwalya nito nang mapuna nitong nakatingin pa rin ako sa bahaging iyon. Seriously, who''s the perverted one between the two of us?


    I''ve seen that part of him a few times already but I still couldn''t help but feel amazed by its enormous size. If he weren''t born an Omega, one would surely assume that he''s an Alpha judging by his manhood. I myself has a decent size that can satisfy an Omega too, but... Chihiro''s was way more intimidating.


    And sometimes I regret being born like this and turn out to be an Alpha. It''s so pathetic.


    "I have something I want to ask you but can you put on some clothes first?" pag-iiba ko ng usapan at awtomatiko namang nagliwanag ang mukha ng kausap ko. "Mmm!" he agreed happily at nagmadaling maghanap ng masusuot.


    He didn''t take long. I didn''t really have any intention to ask anything. Hindi ko na kasi mapign ang hindi ma-turn on dahil sa maganda niyang hubog. Maybe, I have a thing with guys with bodies like him- just like when I first saw Khan before. Ah, but Jirou was not muscr though but he still had a nice body. Kaagad din naman akong natauhan and shook my head many times violently.


    [Why am I suddenly bringing up other guy''s name now?! What will Chihiro think of me?!] Nababalisa kong pagwaw sa aking isipan sabay tinakpan ang bibig ko gamit ang isa kong kamay upang hindi ako mapasinghap ng mkas. Muli ko siyang sinulyapan at saktong tapos na itong magbihis at nakangiting sumampa na sa kama at tinabihan ako sa paghiga.


    "Your hair! It''s still wet, idiot!" I eximed and messed up his already messy hair that had this slight curls bago siya tinalikuran.


    Chihiro is handsome but because he doesn''t pay much attention to how he looks and how he would style up his hair, his natural beauty is not noticeable. It''s a shame but a part of me is d that I got to see this part of him more often than others.


    "He he. Gomen," he yfully said and hugged me from behind. I could no longer see his face now and it''s making me more nervous.


    "Dry your hair first," medyo inis kong utos sa kanya at bahagyang napakagat sa ibaba kongbi. Our bodies were just a few inches apart. When I took my time staring at his thing earlier I got a little aroused. If he tried to touch me down there he''ll definitely notice..


    "Mm, Aki-san," he agreed but didn''t budge. Instead, his right hand moved a little to my right hip and he caressed it lightly, bringing jolts to that part that he touched. "Mpit na p ang heat ko. Iniisip ko kung sa guest room muna ako matulog pansamant mamaya para hindi kita maistorbo, Aki-san."


    He was right. I was also worrying about that not too long ago. Masn ang pagbubuntis ko ngayon. If I get affected by his heat, I won''t be able to calm myself if we ever have sex and so will he. At m ko na pagkatapos nghat,bis na maaapektuhan si Chihiro and his guilt will eat him up for days. Not only that, nandito din ang parents niya. What kind of an adult would I be if I let myself be swayed by their Omega son''s heat with their presence? It would only prove that his dad was right all along that I''m just like all those bastard Alphas that can''t fight our lust when we encounter an Omega''s heat.


    "I should be the one staying in the guest room. This is your home," I insisted. For some reason, naw ang arousal na nararamdaman ko kanina.


    His hand then moved again and this time, he put it on my lower abdomen. "May baby bump ka na, Aki-san," bing pag-iiba nito ng usapan at natawa nang bahagya.


    [Stop doing that, you dumbass. Your warm and big hand is very calming. If you keep touching me there, I won''t be able to get out from your hug,] sa isip ko pero taliwas ang sinagot ko sa kanya sa personal.


    "Does it bother you now?" What the hell am I saying?


    "Eh?"


    "Stop touching it," I demanded na may halong galit sa boses ko. But the truth was I wanted him to keep touching it and sweet talk to me like this.


    "Aki-san, may masakit ba sa ''yo?" he slightly panicked and stopped hugging me and tried to make me face him.


    [Just stop talking and-!]


    "...kiss me already," I muttered.


    "Huh?" The idiotic giant tilted his head to the side, not sure what I was trying to say.


    "Why are you so dumb? I really hate that part of you," I said in irritation and grabbed-hold the back of his neck. "Come here," I uttered and pulled him towards me, making our lips touch. Chihiro was surprised but he responded to my kiss still with care and tried not to put his weight against me. Me, on the other hand, wrapped my arms around his neck to prevent him from letting go.


    "...san," he breathed between our kisses and looked at me in the eyes with such passion. "Okayng ba?"


    I chuckled. How cute. "Just shut up and kiss me," I told him and kept clinging to his neck, bringing him even closer to me. "Aah~" I let out a soft moan as soon as his hands touched my body. He didn''t do anything lewd yet but my body became sensitive ever since we''ve slept together.


    ¡°Aki-san, may hard on na ako pero baka marinig tayo n Kaa-chan at Tou-chan," Chihiro honestly stated after breaking our kiss. "Kung ayosng sa ''yo, huwag kang masyadong maingay para hindi n mahta. Pero sa totoong, mas gusto ko sanang marinig ang mga ungol mo pero..." aniya at pagkuwa''y nahiya pa ng kaunti. Hisst words ticked me off. He really has no shame, for fuck''s sake! He''s lucky that I wanted it so badly so I couldn''t snap at him right now. "Alright. Just don''t... overdo it this time," I almost said it in a whisper.


    Come to think of it, it was thest sex we had and it was rough and irrational. We were both lost in our overwhelming emotions. It was also my fault that Chihiro felt bad that day. I fired him for no reason and intentionally hurt his feelings. I''m surprised that he still cares for me despite all that.N?velDrama.Org ? 2024.


    Medyo nanlumo ang mukha ni Chihiro. He must have remembered that time. "Sa totoong, Aki-san, tuwing naala ko iyong ginawa ko sa ''yo natatakot ako na baka maulit iyon at masaktan kita," he admitted and was also now on the verge of crying.


    I cupped his cheeks with my both hands and made him look directly to me before saying, "Forget it. I''m not mad at you, Chihiro. I hurt you and I was a jerk. Well... I''m still a jerk because I can''t even dare to contact you after what happened. It''s all my fault. You were just being too honest," Iforted but I know these won''t be enough to make him feel at ease.


    "Aki-san..."


    I lightly pecked his lips before staring right into his eyes with longing. "It''s fine." With that said, bing nabalot ng matinding pagnanasa si Chihiro at malugod ko namang tinanggap ang pagnanasa niyang iyon.


    "Aki-san...,¡± he whispered in a deep and desperate voice, positioning himself on top of me and lifted my shirt; revealing my chest. His eyes burned with passion when he saw that my lower half was already reacting to his mere touching. He then leaned forward and gave me a quick kiss before he paid attention to my nipples and started licking them.


    "Mmgh..." Isang impit na ungol ang nagawa ko kasabay ng kaunting pag-arko ng aking likod.


    "Aki-san..." he muttered and bit my right nipple with little force until it left a mark.


    The next thing he did was explore my other body parts; running his fingers to my sensitive points and licking every corner that he finds alluring. It didn''t take long for him to reach my rock hard manhood and even gave it a yful kiss. Even though I still had my pants on, it made me so wet with pre-cum and the urge to be fucked by him again only made me more horny.


    Baguhanng si Chihiro but he''s already gotten used at pleasuring my body even though we haven''t slept too often. I wonder if it''s because we''re somehow connected by what''s growing inside my belly?


    "Aah~" I moaned when he lightly bit the top of my cock. "You little! Where the fuck did you learn to do all of these?!" inis kong buska sa kanya. It''s kinda irritating that he''s gotten so good at this for such a short period of time. Napahagikhik naman ang tanga bago ito sumagot, "Gusto kong mas magustuhan ni Aki-san ang susunod nating sex kaya nag-aral ako," proud na pagyayabang nito at nangiting parang batang nakapasa sa exam.


    Just a heads up:  is the only ce to read theplete version of this book for free. Don''t miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey!


    "Fuck. I really do hate you," parang maiiyak sa inis kong turan at mabilis namang nag-panic si Chihiro.


    "Eh?! Bakit? Hindi mo ba nagustuhan, Aki-san?!" he asked with such worry and checked on my body. "May masakit ba? Aah~! Ayaw mo ba ng hickeys? Babawiin ko ba? Mahirap bawiin pero gagawan ko ng paraan!" he eximed, breathing heavily like a damn idiot.


    [Really... This is why I can''t resist him. Not only he''s a total moron but his purity makes my heart melt.]


    "Why are you so honest, Chihiro?" I said and pushed him aside so I could take off my pants and positioned myself.


    "Eh?" he was baffled habang sinasaksihan akong pumatong sa kanya. "Aki-san?"


    "Just shut up," I demanded and took hold of his thing and probed it in my backside, "and make me feel good, okay?" The next thing I did was shove the whole thing inside up my butt and that made the both of us react in pleasure. "Aki...san," Chihiro groaned and tried to stop me.


    "Mmfgh..." I prepared myself and at the same time prevented him from stopping me by grabbing his hands and made them grab my butt cheeks instead. "Here. Touch me here while I move."


    Nag-apoy sabis na tuwa si Chihiro sa narinig at wng pagdadwang-isip na sinunod ako. I proceeded at having my way and devoured him wholly. The spikes of pleasure that ran throughout my body was intense enough to almost make me wanna cum nonstop.


    "Aki... Ughn-!" Chihiro''s grip on my ass tightened as I changed the rhythm of my movement.


    "Aah... Mmgh..." Trying to hold back my voice was excruciating. I wanted to feel it all. I feel awkward at taking the lead but with his thing inside me, rubbing my insides made me lose my reason. "Chihiro..." More... I want him to pound deeper, so deep.


    [Hold me tight and make me feel that I am wanted so badly,] having these thoughts while having sex with Chihiro was absurd. I''m older than him. If I requested something so childish, what would he think?


    "Aki-Urkgh!" he groaned and matched my pace. Maslong tumindi ang nararamdaman kong sarap sa ginawa niyang iyon. It''s as if Chihiro knew where and how to pleasure me already. He was hitting my sweet spots and it felt so freaking good.


    "Chi... Slow down or I''ll-Aah~" I couldn''t even finish talking because he was too focused on me.


    "Suki desu, Aki-san," he dered with tears of joy before flooding me with his cum that he released inside.


    I let out a loud gasp before cumming, too. That was unbelievably fast for someone who hasn''t been touched for a while. Just when he finished squirting all of his essence inside me, Izily rested my upper body on his chest. He didn''t pull his dick out nor did I try to remove it. I could still feel him pulsing. We both breathed heavily and listened to each other''s pumping heart beats.


    "Heh. That was fast," I finally said with a tired voice.


    "I love your baby bump, Aki-san," pag-iiba nito ng usapan na ikinagt ko.


    "Huh? What do you mean?" I asked and suddenly felt uneasy. We were still connected to each other, after all.


    "Kung iniisip mo na baka magbago ang tingin ko sa ''yo dahil nagsisim nang magbago ang katawan mo dahil nagdadng-tao ka, nagkakamali ka, Aki-san," he outright stated. "Noong sinabi kong mahal kita, Aki-san, I meant everything about you. Hindi mahga sa akin kahit magbago man ang hitsura mo. Ang totoo niyan, mas masaya ako dahil ikaw ang magiging ina ng magiging anak natin. He he~"


    [Dummy. Why did you have to say that now?]


    "You idiot..." I whispered and bit my lower lip.


    "Eh?" he reacted but something caught his attention. "Eh?! Aki-san... bakit pakiramdam ko ay sinasakal mo ako?" he asked with a nervous voice. When he said strangle, he meant my hole tightened around his manhood again. It''s basically his fault for saying something so cheesy!


    "Shut up and take responsibility!" I half shouted and punched his side. Napatawa nang si Chihiro at ang sunod na nangyari ay nakang rounds kami. I bet his parents already noticed. I mean, it would be impossible not to notice because I was noisy halfway and so was Chihiro. I''m just d that they didn''t barge in or whatsoever. Or maybe we''ll get scolded afterwards. Either way, I didn''t care.


    Maybe. Just maybe... If the time was right, I could face my parents again and tell them that I''m bing a parent soon.


    I wonder if they''ll be able to acknowledge me this time.

 SIDE STORY: 14TH EGO

    AKI


    JUST when I was about to go out with Chihiro today, I got an unexpected call from a person whom I''m very familiar with.


    "H-hello?" I answered in a very hesitant and shivering voice.


    "Aki? Aki, is that you?" The voice from the other line asked. It belonged to a woman''s. "I''ve been trying to contact you for a while now but I can''t seem to reach. How are you doing?"


    [Ah. I should be delighted that she sounded worried but why am I having a mental breakdown right now?] I thought to myself while trying to hide my uneasiness.


    "I..." I uttered and subconsciously nced at Chihiro that was patiently waiting for me to finish my call. "I''m fine... mom." Just calling her ''mom'' almost made me want to vomit. I couldn''t take any more of this conversation. My parents don''t usually contact me like this unless they wanted to demand something for me.


    "Good. Your father and I have already talked about some important matters. Aki... it''s about time¡ª"


    The next words she spouted became a static sound to me as I distanced my phone away from my ear and weakly looked at Chihiro with pure horror marked on my face. He sensed that it was something serious... ...something that could tear us apart for life.


    "Sigurado ka bang kaya mong pumunta mag-isa, Izumi-san?" nag-alang tanong sakin ng ina ni Chihiro na si Chidori-san. Kasalukuyan kaming nasa s ngayon at binanggit ko sa mga magng ni Chihiro ang tungkol sa biang pagtawag ng aking ina.


    "I''ll be fine. Babalik din ako kaagad," pagsisiguro ko pero tinapunanng ako ng pagdududa ni Hiromi-san.


    "But you''re pregnant. Mas mainam kung kasama mo si Chihiro... o kami," he suggested. He sounded stiff and strict but I could feel a little worry from his tone.


    "Aki-san, sasama ako! Ipapaliwanag ko sa mga magng mo anghat!" desididong turan ni Chihiro at mahigpit na hinawakan ang dwa kong kamay. "Chihiro..."


    "Responsibilidad ka na rin namin, Izumi-san," aniya Hiromi-san kaya napalingon ako sa gawi niya. "And I''m doing this for my son''s sake... and for you, too. Mahga ka sa anak ko kaya hindi ko hahayaang may mangyari sa ''yo." How manly! Namana ni Chihiro ang persistence at tapang niya!


    "Tou-chan~" nagagk namang ani ni Chihiro at bahagyang napaiyak.


    "Sang-ayon ako kay Hiromi, Izumi-san," Chidori-san seconded before smiling at me with such gentleness.


    "Everyone... thank you."


    [This family is so great. How I wish I also had such family,] I thought to myself while biting my lip to stop me from crying in front of them.


    ¡¤


    I brought Chihiro''s whole family to my parents'' house. I didn''t tell them about havingpany so I''m pretty sure they would freak out. I have no idea what to tell them and where to even start. But in order for me and Chihiro to keep seeing each other until we sort out everything, I must face my parents and tell them the whole truth that the perfect Alpha son they''ve always wanted was no near as being perfect.


    All I am is nothing but a w - a worthless scum who is perverted and wants to be dominated by another guy- that''s the Izumi Aki that walked this Earth for 32 years now.


    "Aki, wel-?!" My mother''s supposed to be delighted smile was reced with utter confusion upon seeing who I brought with me. Aside from Chihiro''s family of giants, they somehow looked menacing right now and I didn''t know why. Are they perhaps acting all overprotective?


    "They''re with me, mom," I said to her. Her expression turned sour in an instant but she hid it with a fake smile and gestured our guests to follow her inside.


    Surprisingly, Hiromi-san remainedposed and seemed not bothered at all. It''s maybe because he''s an Alpha so he knew how to deal with other Alphas, as well. But I was also amazed to see Chidori-san looking confident today. Pumunta kaminghat sa living room at nandoon ang ama ko at tahimik na naghihintay sa amin. Nagtaka siya nang makita sina Chihiro pero hindi ito kumibo. Sinundanng niya kami ng tingin hanggang sa naupo na anghat. We had tworge couches facing each other at sa gitna nito ay may maliit na mesang gawa sa smin. My parents sat on the other side of the couch, not breaking their stares at us.


    [I have to break this tension. But what should I tell them first? We haven''t seen each other for years!] Medyo kabado kong saad sa aking isipan habang panay ang lingon ko sa pamilya ni Chihiro. "Aki." It was my mom''s voice at awtomatiko akong napatingin sa kanyang direksiyon. "Who are they, exactly?"


    "Um..." Fuck! I can feel my throat going dry!


    "They are the Hanamichi family. There''s a reason why I brought them here... so hear me out until the end," I introduced and hoped they wouldn''t start nagging or questioning me nonstop. "You know why your mother called you over, right?" asked my dad who sounded a little bit annoyed.


    "Of course," mabilis kong sagot bago napalunok ngway sa sobrang kaba. Was it because I''m pregnant that''s why I couldn''t control my mixed emotions right now or was it because I was certain that they wouldn''t ept the idea of me having a mate in the future?


    "Pardon us. My name is Hanamichi Hiromi. This is my mate, Chidori. And this is our son, Chihiro," magng na pagpapakla ni Hiromi-san sa kanng mga sarili.


    "Nice meeting you," malugod na bati ni Chidori-san sa aking mga magng sabay bahagyang niyuko ang kanyang ulo pati na rin si Chihiro bng tanda ng paggng.


    "I am not delighted at all," taas-ky na turan ng aking ina, disying her straight out disapproval of their presence.


    "And what''s your reason for tagging them along with you?" my dad asked.


    "Tagging... That''s!" Why are they being so rude right now?


    "You better not tell us that you have a rtionship or something with that guy," my mom inserted, clearly insulting Chihiro in front of everybody. "Aki, we are not getting any younger and so are you. This family needs an heir already and since you''re our only hope, you have to fulfill that duty." Napasinghap anghat maliban sa mga magng ko sa narinig.


    "Aki-san..." Chihiro whispered so softly and looked afraid of what''s going to happen next.


    Just a heads up:  is the only ce to read theplete version of this book for free. Don''t miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey!


    "Listen here," mom started and the Hanamichis looked at her. They didn''t show any hostility but they were aware that my mother was clearly underestimating them, "especially you, Hanamichi Hiromi-san. You know very well that producing an offspring between two Alphas is nearly impossible. But if the other Alpha has more dominant traits, it can be sessful but can''t produce too many sessors. Highest sessful rate is only two Alpha offsprings. Any more than that, they could produce an Omega childter on. And that means trouble, right?"


    "Yes. That''s why other couples that are both Alphas tend to carry out their bloodline by impregnating Omegas that serve merely as breeding means for them," sagot naman ni Hiromi-san na may halong pagkadismaya sa kanyang mukha. My mother thenughed. It wasn''t that loud but it was cynical. "Oh, please. Don''t act so disgusted, Hanamichi Hiromi-san. That''s how it works. If those lowlife Omegas don''t have anywhere to go or abandoned by their mates, letting themselves carry the offspring of a high ss Alpha is like earning a trophy, don''t you think?" she eximed, entertained by her own monstrosity.


    "Aki knows someone who came from a family of Alphas who sessfully had two dominant Alpha sons but they went overboard and thought they could produce one more, only ending up producing an Omega," sabat ng ama ko at napatingin sa akin na may halong pang-iinsulto. "That Omega son of theirs seduced his own tutor and let his tutor fuck him like a slut," he added.


    "Khan is not a slut!" I finally snapped. Lahat s ay napatingin sa gawi ko. "And he was a first born! It was his parents that failed to notice that their son was not an Alpha and neglected him after knowing the truth!" sigaw ko sa kan. "Aki-san," Chihiro called out to me and tried to calm me down.


    "Pinapunta n''yong ba ako dito para marinig ang mga pang-iinsulto n''yo sa ibang tao?!" buska ko sa aking mga magng. They didn''t even falter by how I acted. "W kayong m kung ano ang pinagdaanan ni Khan bago niya nahanap ang Alpha na nakatadhana para sa kanya. Madaling sabihin na isamang siyang Omega dahil w kayo sa posisyon niya! Kahit kan, hindi naging mababa ang tingin ko sa kanya dahilmang sa hindi kami parehong Alpha. Kung tutuusin, maslo akong humanga sa kanya noong lumaban siya hanggang sa huli! W kayong karapatan na pagsalitaan ng masama si Khan!" I bursted into tears.


    [Ah. Come to think it, I think I haven''t told Chihiro yet that I was madly in love with Khan before he found Okuda. If he knew now, would his feelings for me fade away?] "Aki!" My mom raised her voice and frowned. "Don''t tell me you still like that filthy-!"


    "Fuck, that doesn''t matter anymore because I''ve already given up on him a long time ago, mom!" I snapped back at her. "I''m not that dumb to force my feelings onto someone who clearly won''t be satisfied if I was with them instead of the person they really like! I am not like YOU!" I shouted. My tears kept running down my cheeks and my vision started to get blurry. I feel like passing out but I''m just so mad I couldn''t stop from saying all the things I''ve always wanted say. "Aki-san," Chihiro''s voice was trembling.


    "It''s fine, Chihiro," I reassured him and faced my parents one more time. "I am pregnant. Whether you like it or not, I am going to raise this child," I dered and pulled Chihiro close to me, "together with this guy! And for the record, he is an Omega - very kind and responsible Omega! He gets into my nerves all the time, he gives me a hard time at work, he is persistent but-! He loves me! And I''m... starting to fall in love with him and that''s enough reason for me to stay so from now on, I will officially cut ties with the both of you! Good luck having an heir because I won''t be handling over my future child to you no matter what!" My parents went pale and speechless. On the other hand, Chihiro felt extremely happy for what I did.


    "I guess that means we''re going home now," aniya Hiromi-san at nagsitayuan na s maliban sa mga magng ko na hindi pa rin makapaniw sa nman.


    "How dare you do this to us?!" my mother angrily muttered while clenching her fists.


    "Thanks for raising me but never did I feel that I belonged to this family," saad ko bago s tinalikuran.


    Akmang aalis na sana kami nang npitan ni Chidori-san ang mga magng ko. Magkasalubong ang kanyang mga ky na t galit ito. "Paumanhin pero kangan kong itong sabihin bago kami umalis," he said bago unti-unting nagbago ang mahinahon niyang aura before pointing a finger at my parents. "You dumbass, Alphas!" he shouted in a whole different attitude and his voice sounded raspierpared to his usual calm demeanor. "You think you can insult us Omegas like that?! Want me to rip your butts off?! For your information, Omegas are not sluts! We aren''t filthy either! It''s the likes of you that makes us look filthy! You, shitheads! Insult my son or any other Omegas like me again and I''ll surely-!" naputol ang pagwaw nito nang hhin siya ni Hiromi-san upang pakalmahin.


    "Chidori, that''s enough. Let''s go home," Hiromi-san said.


    "Huh?! Shut it! I''m going to teach these two bastards some lesson and maybe knock some sense into their empty heads!"


    "That''s enough," pagpapakalma ni Hiromi-san sa kanya sabay nginitian ang mate. He''s so sweet towards Chidori-san. "Let''s have sex when we get home. It''s been a while since Ist saw that side of you."


    "Ugh!" hindi nakakibo si Chidori-san at bing nambot at nam ang mga pisngi nito.


    "Tou-chan!" reacted Chihiro while sweating and fidgeting.


    [I take it back! They''re a bunch of idiots!]


    "You are choosing these clowns over us, Aki?!" my father shouted at napahinto kaminghat at napalingon sa kanyang direksiyon. This was the first time I heard him so furious like this. It was always my mother who always made a fuss over every single thing.


    "Yes, dad. And they are not clowns. They may be carefree people but they know how to treat a person better than anyone else," pagtatanggol ko kina Chihiro. "It''s not about me rebelling against you or running away from my duty as an Alpha and only heir to your stupid perfect life, but it is me who is choosing my happiness, and that happiness can only be found within this family. I''m sorry... for failing."


    "You are throwing away your life, Aki!" mom snarled but I didn''t pay attention. Instead, I silently walked away with Chihiro beside me and holding my hand tightly. "You know you''re more capable than this! You don''t have to step down to their level! You are an Izumi! You are an Alpha! You will regret this! You, ungrateful son!" She went hysterical and kept on shrieking like a mad hag. Her nagging became static sounds in my ear. I just wanted to get away from here as soon as possible.

    Nang makbas na kami ng bahay na minsan ay tinirhan ko at kinkihan, awtomatikong bumuhos ang mga luha ko sabis na sakit at napayakap kay Chihiro nang mahigpit.N?velDrama.Org ? 2024.


    "Aki-san," I heard him sniff as he hugged me back.


    "They didn''t even acknowledge their own future grandchild!" I cried, burying my face into his chest.


    "It''s okay. We''re here," aniya Hiromi-san.


    "Hindi kita naipagtanggol nang maayos kanina, Aki-san, pero maaasahan mong hindi kita iiwan," Chihiroforted.


    "I''m sorry for not telling you about Khan," sabi ko. "You''ve already seen him a few times but I was too afraid to tell you that I had special feelings for him because I didn''t want you to hate me. I didn''t want you to see my ugly side. You admired me so much that it became scary for me to show my real personality," I exined.


    Chihiro chuckled so I lifted my head to see his face. "Naiintindihan ko, Aki-san. Pero hindi pa rin mababago ng nakaraan mo ang pagtingin ko sa ''yo. Suki desu... *sugoku [very much]."


    "Chihiro..." And my tears welled up again. I couldn''t defeat this guy no matter what.


    "You''re gonna have to bear with my son''s persistence. He got that from me, after all. Right, Chidori?" Hiromi-san uttered before throwing lewd nces at his own mate. At tumawa ang mag-ama nang sabay kaming mapangiwi ni Chidori-san. "Ah! Aki-san, bukas may pupuntahan tayo!" ani Chihiro at nagliwanag ang mukha nito.


    "Huh? Where?"


    "Secret~"


    "What''s that supposed to mean?!" inis kong buska sa kanya at binatukan ang dibdib nito pero w manng itong epekto sa higanteng kaharap ko ngayon.


    On our way home, I kept pestering Chihiro about his n but he remained shut the whole time. We ended up having sex that night, too. Well, all of us (apparently, Hiromi-san and Chidori-san also had sex) got into the mood and filled the night with lovemaking sounds.

    AKI


    "WHAT''S the meaning of this, Chihiro?" kaagad kong tanong sa kanya nang makarating na kami sa sinabi nito na pupuntahan namin. It was supposed to be right after we encountered my parents pero kinabukasan ay w akong ganang gumawa ng kahit ano kaya hinayaan muna ako ni Chihiro.


    "Mamamasyal tayo, Aki-san!" nakangiting sagot naman ng baliw.


    "And why is Khan here also?" I asked with a disturbed facial expression.


    "Ako ang nag-imbita sa kanya!" masayang sagot ni Chihiro.


    "How have you been, Aki?" asked Khan with a smile. He was carrying baby Yuuki with him.


    "Goo~" Yuuki uttered and reached out his hand as if he''s waving hello to me.


    "Hindi ka ba masaya, Aki-san?" nagsimng mag-la si Chihiro nang makita na hindi napawi ang t pagkainis ko.


    "No, it''s not like that but..." I said and looked at the person that was standing right next to Khan.


    "Why am I also here?" It was Okuda who finally said what I wanted to say.


    "Exactly!" I eximed and pointed my finger at Okuda that was clearly unhappy to see me, too. "Why is he here?!"


    "Ha ha. About that," Khan softly chuckled, "I need someone to carry Yuuki''s baby bags," he exined at doon kong napansin ang d ni Okuda na dwang bag na may kkihan. Napaatras naman ang d ko at hindi ko na magawang magremo pa. Pero masyado naman atang marami ang din ni Khan. It''s not that we''re having a pic or something all day.


    "Sorry, Aki-san. Ako ang nakiusap kay Kazuki-san na samahan tayo ngayon at pumayag naman siya. Naisip ko kasi na baka mapasaya kita kahit papa''no," pagpapaumanhin naman ni Chihiro and he began showing me his signature sad puppy look.


    [Ah, fuck! He''s so damn sly!] I thought to myself. Gaganahin ka pa bang magalit kung parang naman p sa kapakanan ko ang intensiyon nglaking ito?


    "Fine," I sighed in defeat before blushing. "Thanks."


    Labis namang natuwa si Chihiro at doon ko natusan na din niya p ako sa mall. It was such amon ce but walking around together with the people that made me feel wanted brought unexinable happiness to me.


    ?


    "Chihiro told me everything about what happened to you and your parents," Khan opened up.


    Nandito kami ngayon sa isang bakanteng upuan habang si Okuda naman ay kasama si Yuuki at pinasyal ito pansamant. Si Chihiro naman ay nagpam na may iche-check saglit. He didn''t tell me where but he told me he''ll be back right away.


    "It''s pathetic, right?" ani ko na may halong lungkot. "I''ve always known that they''d react like that but maybe because I''m pregnant that I''m too emotional over something that I''m already used to."


    "No, Aki. You say that you''re used to it but you''re not," mariing tanggi ni Khan. "You''re doing the same thing that I did before. Guess what? Isa ka sa rason na na-realize ko ang mga pagkakamali ko... so cherish yourself more. You deserve to love. You deserve to be loved."


    I shed silent tears after hearing that. He really has changed for the better. Dati, awang-awa na ako kay Khan and almost became desperate at making him my mate parang maibsan ko ang dinadanas niyang paghihirap but now that I look back, he would''ve ended unhappy if we became mates dahil si Okudang ang makakapagbigay sa kanya ng kasiyahan na iyon.


    "You''ve be strong, Khan," I uttered and forced to smile while sniffing at the same time.


    "I still have doubts but I have Ryuichi and Yuuki now. They are the ones that''s making me strong, Aki," he exined. "Don''t let go of Hanamichi-kun. He''s an Omega like me but he''s stronger and I can see his sincerity towards you. He loves you so much."N?velDrama.Org ? 2024.


    "That''s what I''m afraid of. What if he stops loving me one day? Hindi ko m kung kakayanin kong makita si Chihiro na talikuran ako. I can endure being judged by everyone but not when ites to him. Just by thinking that he will get fed up by me someday gives me goosebumps."


    "Then believe in him. Kapag nangyari ang kinatatakutan mo, then simply pursue him. Win him again and again. If it takes time, bear with it. Never let go of his hand and never let go of your feelings for him," Khan encouraged.


    I already dered that I was indeed starting to fall in love with Chihiro but I didn''t think of what might happen next, honestly. When my parents startedparing Omegas from Alphas, my mind went nk and I was engulfed with rage. I really hated that being an Alpha or Omega mattered to them more than anything else. And to think they were willing to set aside my own sake just for their own selfish desires only made it worst.


    "Khan... is it scary?" pag-iiba ko ng usapan at medyo nalito siya sa tanong ko.


    "What?"


    I looked at Yuuki first before staring at him. "You know... having a child...?" my voice almost cracked at the end.


    Pagak naman siyang napatawa. "At first, yes," he honestly admitted. "But Okuda made me feel at ease. When I felt insecure, he wouldfort me. Whenever I''m in doubt, he would stay by my side until I''m calm. You see... if you have someone that''s willing to show you how much they love you and how much they care for you, nawaw anghat ng takot at pagdududa."


    "Chihiro did say that he loved my baby bump," medyo natatawa kong wika.


    "Aki, you won''t really get over your insecurities unless you acknowledge all your imperfections," Khan uttered. "Let go of all and be yourself. Love Chihiro the way you know best."


    "I''m quite insecure about our age difference, by the way," pag-aamin ko. "Pakiramdam ko kinuha ko ang kyaan niya at binigyan siya ng maagang responsibilidad. I... I can raise the child alone for now and let him ept it when he''s ready but..."


    "I understand. Bata pa nga si Hanamichi-kun kung tutuusin pero desidido siyang panagutan ka, ''di ba?"


    "I know but I wanted to prove myself to him and to his family. They are such good people. I can''t afford to taint them with my half-assed decisions in life. I also want my future baby to have a responsible parent," giit ko.


    "You don''t need to rush things, Aki. If you feel like it, then don''t be mates with him for now. You can still raise the child together but mating wille after the both of you are mentally and physically ready," payo nito at napaisip ako.


    He was right. That''s the best option if I wanted to remain close to Chihiro. But I wonder if he would agree? Magsasalita pa sana ako nang bing sumulpot si Okuda. Karga-karga na nito si Yuuki na umiiyak. "Kazuki," Okuda called out to Khan with panic in his voice.


    "Ryuichi, ano''ng nangyari?" lang tanong ni Khan at agarang kinuha si Yuuki na sige pa rin sa pag-iyak.


    "It''s Yuuki," Okuda said while panting.


    "What? Is he hurt?" Khan''s worry escted.


    Lumingo naman si Okuda. "No. Bi niyang nala angruan niya at nagalit siya sa akin," pagpapaliwanag nito.


    Natawa naman kaming pareho ni Khan sa kuwento ni Okuda. I really thought it was something serious because he looked incredibly scared. So, even an Alpha like Okuda could show such face?


    "Really now, Yuuki," natatawa pa ring ani ni Khan at pinatahan ang anak. May dinukot itongruan sa loob ng d nng baby bag at inabot ang isang octopus plushy kay Yuuki. "*Tako-san [Mr. Octopus] was with mama all the time," pag- aalo niya rito at awtomatikong napatigil si Yuuki sa pag-iyak nang makita angruan at mahigpit itong niyakap.


    "Ah-ko~" Yuuki uttered and instantly calmed down.


    Napangiti naman ako habang pinagmamasdan si Yuuki. Soon, I''ll experience this kind of situation too. I wonder if I''ll be able to be a good parent like Khan and Okuda?


    "Aki-san!" mabilis naman akong napalingon sa nagmamay-ari ng boses at isang nakangiting Chihiro ang bumungad sa akin.


    "Don''t pressure yourself, Aki. Be yourself," Khan whispered before softly patting my back.


    "Thanks a lot," I whispered back before I turned my attention towards Chihiro. "Where have you been?" tanong ko rito.


    Napakamot naman siya ng kanyang ulo. "He he. Diyanng sa tabi-tabi," he answered at saka ko napansin ang maliit na tote bag na bitbit nito na itinago niya sa kanyang likod. Nagtaas ako ng ky. "So... what''s that you''re holding?"


    Chihiro flinched and started to sweat as if he was caught red-handed. "Ah! Um... w...?"


    "Seriously?" Mas tinarayan ko ang mukha ko atlo siyang kinabahan.


    He chuckled nervously and looked away. Para bang nag-isip pa ito ng ipapalusot. "Mamaya pag-uwi natin..."


    "Huh?"


    "Ipapakita ko sa ''yo mamaya pag-uwi natin, Aki-san," he finally said.


    I nced at it one more time before agreeing. "Fine."


    After that, we had lunch all together. We didn''t buy anything in particr. Napadaan kami sa infant section ng department store and Khan suggested I should visit but I refused. It''s not that I didn''t like going there, my heart wasn''t just ready yet.


    Night finally came and we said our goodbyes.


    "Thanks for inviting us, Hanamichi-kun. We had fun," Khan formally said before bowing.


    Chihiro bowed down in return. "Wng anuman, Kazuki-san. Ah. Smat din, Okuda-san," he said and also bowed to Okuda.


    "Th-thanks," I uttered while blushing because I was too shy.


    I saw Okuda smirk. "You''ve changed," he teased.


    "Shut up!" singhal ko naman sa kanya atlo akong nahiya.


    "For the better though," he added and his expression told me that he was being serious. "And as for you, Hanamichi-kun, I think you''re just the type of guy that four-eyes needs for him to bring out his positive side."


    [This bastard! Ayos na sana kaso bakit four-eyes pa rin ang tawag niya sa ''kin?!] Gigil kong mura sa isipan.


    Chihiro smiled to that. "I''m honored," he said with a blush.


    "We''ll be going now. Thanks again, everyone. Yuuki, say goodbye to Aki and Hanamichi-kun," Khan uttered.


    "Goo~" Yuuki uttered before pointing a finger at Chihiro. "Du!" and Chihiro flinched to that.


    "Yuuki, it''s rude to point fingers at someone," mmbing na sita ni Khan sa anak at binaba ang nakaturo nitong index finger.


    "Du!" Yuuki kept pointing as if he was telling Chihiro something very important.


    "Sorry, he''s not usually like this," pagpapaumanhin nang ni Khan.


    "Okayng, Kazuki-san," Chihiro reassured. "Naala ko na sinabi niya rin ito sa akin noong minsang pumunta ako sa bahay n''yo para humingi ng payo."


    "Du. Du, du...!"


    "Para bang may gusto siyang sabihin sa akin. Gumaan ang loob ko pagkatapos kaya okayng," Chihiro said and gently stroked Yuuki''s palm.


    Surprisingly, Yuuki held on to his pinky finger. "Du..." Chihiro was overwhelmed and almost cried. We had no idea what Yuuki was trying to tell Chihiro but I bet it was his words of encouragement. That night, we parted ways with smiles on our faces.

    .


    I thought we were going straight home after a whole day of strolling in the mall but...


    "Isn''t this a motel?" I asked with a nk expression.


    Chihiro on the other hand was beaming with delight and excitement, simply locking the door to our room. "Nagpam ako sa mga magng ko, Aki-san," he reasoned out before taking off his jacket. "Okay but... why are we here in the first ce?" I asked again in an ufortable tone.


    "Gusto kong masolo ka ulit, Aki-san," he admitted without hesitation.


    "Saan ka kumuha ng pambayad dito, Chihiro? I fired you, remember? You''re practically jobless. Please don''t tell me that you borrowed money from your pa¨D"


    "May ipon ako, Aki-san," putol nito sa akin. "Huwag kang mag-la. Pinag-isipan ko ito nang mabuti."


    [Stop looking so ridiculously serious. It''s creeping me out!] I shouted in my mind. Napaatras naman ako ng kaunti nang humakbang ppit sa ''kin si Chihiro. Was it because we''re the only ones inside this room that I could hear his heavy footsteps very well? It''s actually scary. My heart suddenly beat faster.


    "Chihiro, wait-Ugh!" Napahinto ako nang bumangga ang likod ko sa pader. When I looked at his way again, it was toote. He already had me in between hisrge arms, pinning me against the wall. "You''re scaring me. Say something, you idiot," inis kong turan before clicking my tongue.


    Under his jacket, he was only wearing a in T-shirt. It was tightly fit that it revealed his muscr build. And seeing him without his jacket on this up close was absolutely tempting. Dagdagan pa na napakats ng tingin nito sa akin. His stares alone made me feel like I was being eaten alive.


    "Aki-san..." Chihiro uttered in a whisper-like voice and leaned his head closer to my face. I like the idiotic side of Chihiro but when he''s like this, it''s on another level!


    "You''re too close!" remo ko bago nag-iwas ng tingin.


    "Aki-san. Haah~" he shivered. "Ah. Nbasan na yata ako," he bluntly announced.


    "What are you, a pervert?!" I eximed. Well, I could say the same to myself but Chihiro is shameless!


    "Siguro nga, Aki-san," he agreed kaya naman nag-init ang katawan ko nang kusa. "Suki desu."


    "Yeah. Enough with the teasing and let''s go to bed."


    "Sabi ko na nga ba tinigasan ka rin, Aki-"


    "...the fuck?! I didn''t say let''s have sex!" I snapped at him but that didn''t falter Chihiro''s arousal.


    Tinawananng ako ng baliw saka kinarga. "Up you go~" Masaya pa nitong saad bago nakad papunta sa kama.


    "Put me down, Chihiro!" utos ko rito pero mahigpit naman akong nakakapit sa kanya.


    He carefully put me on the edge of the bed. After making sure that I wasfortable enough, he took off my pants without saying anything. I remained lying and didn''t stop him either. His eyes were fixated on me the whole time kaya hindi ko magawang pumg. I could easily kick him but I was rather excited on what he would do next.


    "Hng~" He somewhat moaned and momentarily stopped from stripping me down there. "Aki-san,labasan na naman yata ako."


    "Stop telling me every detail!" sita ko sa kanya at bahagyang sinipa ang kanang braso nito pero imbis na masaktan ay nagustuhan pa ni Chihiro ang ginawa ko. Why is he so damn perverted?! Dismayadong nagay ko namang ang mga kamay ko sa aking mukha para maitago ang hiyang nararamdaman ko sa mga sandaling ito.


    Nang matanggal na niya anghat ng suot ko sa ibaba ay itinukod niya ang kanyang mga braso sa kama at bahagyang pumaibabaw sa akin. Dahan-dahan kong inalis ang mga kamay ko na nakapatong sa mukha ko at napalunok ako nang magtama ang mga mata namin.


    "Ang ganda mo tga, Aki-san," he praised, his eyes filled with passion.


    "I don''t think calling me beautiful suits me," tanggi ko bago nag-iwas ng tingin.


    "He he. Aki-san, mahal mo ba ako?"


    Hindi ko inasahan ang tanong niyang iyon kaya mabilis na natuon ang tingin ko sa kanya. He looked so serious. His face was still burning with passion but I couldn''t tell if he was trying to tease or test me.


    What if I said no? Would he stop and ignore me for the whole night? And if I said yes? Would he believe me and continue making love to me like usual?


    Just a heads up:  is the only ce to read theplete version of this book for free. Don''t miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey!


    I had to give him a proper answer!


    ¡°Chi¡ª¡±


    "Haah~" I flinched when he suddenly burried his face on my chest. "Sorry sa tanong ko, Aki-san. Hindi mo kangang sumagot kaagad. Handa akong maghintay," he uttered. He sounded calm but somehow, it seemed like he was about to cry in disappointment because I was clearly not sure what to respond.


    "Chihiro..." I called and tried to give him a pat on the back.


    "Angkas ng tibok ng puso mo, Aki-san," he said and even sniffed me. "You''re releasing your Alpha pheromones, too."


    "I am?" I asked in confusion. I wasn''t aware, though.


    "Mm. Nakaka-rx," he answered before sighing at pinulot ang pantalon ko at muli itong isinuot sa akin.


    Napasimangot naman ako at nagtaka saka tsiya tinanong. "Why are you...?"


    Nang maisuot na niya ito ay kinarga niya ako at hiniga na nang maayos bago siya tumabi sa akin. Nakangiti niya itong ginawahat. "Aki-san, nakahanap ako ng bagong trabaho," he suddenly opened up. "That''s good!" natutuwa ko namang turan.


    He nodded as a sign of agreeing to my statement. "Oo at medyo mki ang pasweldo. Makakapag-ipon ako bago ka manganak."


    "Well... yeah. Though I can still work on my own para hindi masyadong mabigat," ani ko.


    "Pero masn ang pagbubuntis mo. Hindi ako papayag na magtrabaho ka sa ganyang kondisyon. At nakakasiguro din ako na hindi papayag ang mga magng ko. Mkas mag-la ang mga ''yon," giit niya. "But I can''t let you do all the work," katuwiran ko naman.


    "Ayosng sa ''kin at willing na willing ako kung para sa ''yo, Aki-san," sabi nito at humarap sa akin. "Basta ipangako mo sa akin na agaan mo ang sarili mo."


    "Of course," I instantly agreed.


    "Mami-miss kita, Aki-san."


    "Mm," I nodded pero mabilis ko ring napagtanto na may mali sa sinabi nito. "Miss? What do you mean?" tanong ko sa kanya saka nagkasalubong ang mga ky ko. "Are you going away?"


    Kaagad naman siyang napaluha pero pinunasan niya ito at pinilit magpakatatag. "W akong choice, Aki-san. Myo ang lugar. Kangan kong manatili doon ng ng buwan pero uuwi ako bago ang kabuwanan mo," he dered at para akong nabingi pagkatapos.


    [He''s going away? He''s leaving me....?]


    "Are you leaving me?" I asked with a trembling voice. I sat up and droplets of tears trickled down my cheeks.


    Umiling naman si Chihiro at napabalikwas din ng upo. "Hindi, Aki-san! Hindi ko gagawin ''yon. Aalis ako para makaipon pero babalik ako. Pangako!" aniya at niyakap ako ng mahigpit. "Sorry kung bini kita!" And now he was crying, too. "Then why?" medyo inis kong tanong ulit.


    "Please, huwag ka nang umiyak. Sorry tga, Aki-san. Gusto kong tgang maging karapat-dapat para sa ''yo at papatunayan kong kaya ko," he insisted.


    "Then work for me again," I offered him.


    "Gustuhin ko man pero m kong hindi ko mapipign ang sarili kong pagnasaan ka, Aki-san."


    "Maiintindihan mo rin ako bng araw, Aki-san. Hindi ako gagawa ng bagay na ikakasakit mo," he said.


    "That''s your fucking reason?" I grabbed on to his shirt and crumpled it.


    "But you''re hurting me right now, idiot," I eximed.


    Kums si Chihiro sa pagkakayakap niya sa akin at hinawakan ang magkab kong mga pisngi bago niya ako sinin ng halik sa noo. "Suki desu, Aki-san."


    We spent the whole night at that motel without having sex. We simply hugged each other closely. I didn''t ask him any further on why he decided to work far away and he didn''t exin any further, too.


    The next day, Chihiro said his goodbye to me and his parents. He was crying like shit and almost missed the train. Nagdwang-isip pa nga itong tumuloy dahil nagi-guilty siya na hindi niya kaagad pinam sa akin anghat. To be honest, I was still a little mad at him for leaving so suddenly. I know I can trust him but....


    I had this feeling that we were slowly drifting apart. And it was not because of the people around us but it was rather fate that forced us into this situation.


    [Am I being tested? Would this help me finally sort out my feelings for Chihiro and properly tell him that I do have genuine feelings for him already the next time we see each other? But what if he realized he was such an idiot for sacrificing so much for me and fall out of love?] I deeply thought.


    "Come back for me, Chihiro," I whispered to myself before my tears fell down as I watched him slowly disappear from my sight.


    No one told me it was this scary...

 SIDE STORY: 16TH EGO

    .


    CHIHIRO


    NAKAYA kong mapyo kay Aki-san at nakahanap ng disenteng trabaho at sa hindi pagmamayabang pero may konti na akong naipon para sa magiging anak namin.


    Excited na ako sa ideya na magkakaroon na kami ng anak pero may parte pa rin ng kalooban ko ang natatakot. Bukod sa hindi pa kami mates, hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa rin lubos na sigurado si Aki-san sa nararamdaman niya para sa ''kin. Naiintindihan ko na baka natatakotng siya na hindi magiging maganda o positibo ang klabasan ng rsiyon namin kaya naman ganoon namang siya ka-undecided.


    Mahal ko si Aki-san, sobra. At handa akong gawin anghat mapatunayan komang iyon sa kanya. Kahit magmukha pa akong tanga sa harap ng maraming tao ay tatanggapin ko kung iyonng ang tanging paraan para mapagaan ko ang loob niya at tuluyan na niyang ipagkatiw sa akin ang kanyang puso. Laking pasasmat ko nga dahil nakaagapay sa akin ang mga magng ko.


    Strikto si Tou-chan pero m kong ginagawa niyang ito dahil minsan na sng nawn ng isang anak at masakit para sa kan ang pagkaw ni Chiromi noon. Si Kaa-chan naman ayging nakalay sa akin at sinusuportahan ako sahat ng nagiging desisyon ko sa buhay; tama man o mali. Napakasuwerte ko tga na s ang mga magng ko at pinki n ako na hindi madaling sumuko. "Hanamichi-kun, pakilipat naman ng mga kahon na ito sa stock room," bing tawag sa akin ng isa sa mga katrabaho ko.


    Natanggap ako bng isang construction worker. Mki ang building na kangang tapusin at ng buwan ang kontrata na kanng binigay sa amin. Bk ng may-ari na magtayo ng isang panibagong hotel branch. Ang nakakalungkot ngang ay myo ito sa amin kaya kinakangan kong manirahan muna dito pansamant para makatipid ako sa gastusin sa pagbibiyahe.


    Pinam ko ito nang maaga kay Tou-chan at Kaa-chan pero inilihim ko kay Aki-san. m kong masama ang ginawa kong iyon pero batid ko ring kapag sinabi ko sa kanya, hindi ko magagawang umalis sa itinakdang araw. Sa mga sandaling ito, baka may hinanakit na sa ''kin si Aki-san.


    Tumatawag ako sa kan bago ako matulog sa gabi. Maayos naman ang kgayan ni Aki-san at sa bahay pa rin ng mga magng ko siya nakatira. Bubukod nang kami kapag dumating na ang sanggol. Masn din ang pagbubuntis ni Aki- san kaya hindi siya maaaring iwanang mag-isa.


    "Hanamichi-kun, pakisabay na rin ang isang ''to," pahabol na sabi naman isa pang kasamahan kong construction worker at inabot sa akin ang isang maliit na kahon. "Pasensiya ka na, ha?" pagpapaumanhin pa niya.


    Nangiti naman ako ng mwak. "Ayosng, Haneda-san!" tugon ko salaking tinawag kong Haneda-san. Isa siyang middle-aged Beta at mayroon itong pamilya. Siya ang tumulong sa aking makapasok sa trabahong ito kaya mki ang utang na loob ko sa kanya.


    Matapos kong dalhin ang mga kahon sa stock room at naitago ang mga ito nang maayos ay kaagad din akong bumalik sabas upang tumulong naman sa pag-stack ng mga hollow blocks. Sobrang nakakapagod ang buong araw na pagbababad sa araw. Minsan naman ay man kaya w gaanong natatapos na gawain. Balita ko ay napakki ng nasabing hotel branch kaya marami rin ang nabigyan ng oportunidad na makahanap ng pansamantng hanap-buhay, kagaya ko namang. Hindi ako likas na mam sa construction pero madaling naman matutunan ang simpleng pagmamasa ng semento at mayamayang pagtulong sa pagbubuhat ng mabibigat na bagay. Para saan pa na mki ang katawan ko kung ''di ko rinng magagamit?


    "Hanamichi-kun, mpitng ba dito ang tirahan mo?" bing tanong sa akin ni Haneda-san nang makabalik na ako galing sa stock room.


    "Eh? Um... medyo," nahihiya ko namang tugon.


    "Pasensiya na sa tanong," pagpapaumanhin nito nang mapansin ang pagkang ko na mabilis ko namang itinanggi.


    "Ayosng, Haneda-san!" pagsisiguro ko. "Ang totoo niyan, maayos naman ang boarding house na nahanap pero hindi ko maiwasang mangul sa amin," pag-aamin ko kasabay ng pagkalungkot ng aking mukha. "May mate ka bang naghihintay sa pagbalik mo?" nakangiti niyang hinuha bago binuhos ang isang sako ng powder cement sa maliit na mixer.


    Napabuntonghininga naman ako. "Sana nga po ay ganoon, Haneda-san," matalinghaga kong sagot kaya napasimangot anglaki sa sinabi ko.


    "Ano''ng ibig mong sabihin?" aniya.


    Hinaluan ko naman ng tubig ang sementong ngay niya sa mixer bago nagsalita, "Magkakaanak na po kami ng minamahal ko pero hindi pa kami mates," siwt ko sa aking kaharap na ikinagt niya. "Isa po siyang Alpha at isa naman akong Omega. Hindi po namin inasahan na may mabubuo kami. Komplikado anghat pero handa akong gawin ang kahit na ano para sa taong ito."


    Narinig kong napalunok si Haneda-san. "Ang buong ak ko ay isa kang Alpha. Pero hindi ko sinasabing nakakadismaya na isa kang Omega, ha?" aniya bago nagpatuloy. "Kung gano''n, mas mabuti kung maging mas maingat ka, Hanamichi- kun. Kahit na Beta ang karamihan sa mga nandito ay maaaring may isang Alpha pa rin ang nagpapanggap na isang low ss at baka masaktuhan na makaharap mo s habang nasa heat ka," payo niya. Nakikita ko si Tou-chan sa kanya, sa totoong.


    "Maraming smat po sa pag-ala, Haneda-san," nakangiti kong ani at sinimng haluin nang bahagya ang semento at tubig. "Mahal na mahal ko po ang Alpha na sinasabi ko pero sa ngayon, hindi pa ako ganoon kasigurado kung mahal niya din ako."


    T naging interesado naman si Haneda-san at pinandtan ito ng mga mata. "ng taon ka na ba, Hanamichi-kun?" usisa niya.


    "Eh? Twenty-two po," tapat ko namang pakli.


    "Kaedad mo rin ba ang Alpha na sinasabi mo?" tanong niya.


    "Thirty-two po si Aki-san!" proud kong turan habang nakangiti ng mpad.


    Naki na namang muli ang kanyang mga mata pero pinilit niyang itago iyon bago tumikhim. "Sa pagkakam ko ay rare case na kayang buntisin ng isang Omega ang isang Alpha. Kung magiging matagumpay naman, masn daw ang pagbubuntis ng nasabing Alpha," aniya Haneda-san at nagsim akong kabahan.


    Bukod sa stress nitong unang buwan ng pagdadng-tao ni Aki-san, mads din ang mood swings niya at sunud-sunod din ang naging problema niya sa personal niyang buhay at maging ang pagtira namin sa bahay ng mga magng ko ay nakaapekto din. Hinding iyon. Mki din ang posibilidad na nape-pressure siya ngayon dahil kangan na niyang magdesisyon kung magiging mates ba kami o hindi kapag nakapanganak na siya.


    [Bakit hindi ko na-realize kaagad? Kaya naman p hindi niya magawang maamin sa amin kung ano ang totoo niyang nararamdaman ay dahil parang napipilitanmang siya dahil sa kasalukuyan naming sitwasyon,] sa isip-isip ko habang patuloy sa paghahalo ng semento. Hindi ko na namyang sumobra na p ang nagay kong tubig kaya kaagad din akong nag-panic.


    "Ah! Pasensiya na, Haneda-san!" mariin kong pagpapaumanhin.


    "Ayosng, Hanamichi-kun," ani Haneda-san. "Dadagdagan ko nang ng kaunting semento ''yan. Mabuti pa ay magpahinga ka muna saglit. Kanina ka pakad nangkad."


    .


    .


    Sinunod ko namang ang kanyang payo at pumunta ako sa hindi gaanong matao na parte ng site. Dito ay naupo ako sa isang bakanteng sulok at napabuntonghininga ng mlim. May upuan naman hindi kyuan m dito sa kinatatayuan ko pero mas pinili kong tumungko. Miss na miss ko na si Aki-san. Sabik na akong makasama siya ulit at marinig ang kanyang boses. Kung ako ang masusunod, hindi ako magdadwang-isip na umuwi sa amin ngayon din pero may inaasahan na kaming responsibilidad at hindi maaaring maging carefree nang ako panghabang-buhay.


    [Sorry tga kung naipadama ko na parang iniwan kita, Aki-san,] ani ko sa aking isipan at napabuntonghininga ulit.


    "Aki-san, miss na kita!" sigaw ko sa kawn at naluha nang bahagya.


    ng sandali pa ay may narinig akong kaluskos. Tunog ng isang taong nalakad ang ingay na nililikha nito. Napalingon sa aking paligid - wng tao. Naalerto ako bi at hinintay na maw ang nalakad pero naki ang mga mata ko nang pappit sa direksiyon ko ang nagmamay-ari ng mga yabag ng paa. Sinimn akong pagpawisan. ng araw na akong lumgi dito pero ni minsan ay wng ibang tao ang napunta.


    [Hindi kaya ang foreman namin ang papunta rito?!] Kabado kong wari sa isipan. Baka akin niya ay tumatakas ako sa oras ng trabaho!


    Nagmadali akong tumayo at akmang tatakbo na sana pabalik sa site namin nang saktong nagkasalubong kami ng isanglaki. Nakasuot siya ng itim na tuxedo. Nakaayos ang may kakapn niyang buhok at mukha siyang businessman tingnan.


    "Ah," mahinang pakli ko kasabay ng paninigas ko sa aking kinatatayuan. Katapusan ko na ito!


    "Who are you?" tanong nglaki at saka kong natitigan nang husto ang kanyang mukha. Parang may kamukha siya na kakla ko pero hindi ko mala kung sino.


    Napalunok naman ako bago tumayo ng maayos at magng ngunit kabado na sumagot, "Hanamichi-kun... desu. Isa ako sa mga bagong hired na temporary construction worker... s-sir."


    Napatitig siya sa akin. Sinuri niya ang aking kabuuan. Para akong maiihi sa sobrang takot at kaba dahil ayoko pang matanggal sa trabaho. "Ano''ng ginagawa mo rito? Shouldn''t you be working?" usisa niya.


    Mabilis naman akong napayuko sa sobrang hiya at pagsisisi na naisipan ko pang pumunta rito. "Paumanhin po! Hindi po ako tumatakas sa trabaho! Babalik na po ako, sir!"


    Napasimangot naman siya. "Why are you shouting? And I''m not using you either so why act so guilty?"


    "Patawad po, sir!" pasigaw kong pagpapaumanhin ulit. Napakatanga ko tga!


    "Never mind. You can go back now," sabi nito at nakang hingi rin ako ng paumanhin bago kumaripas ng takbo.


    [Ah, Chihiro! Napakki mong tanga! Oras ng trabaho pero heto ka at kung saan-saan napapadpad ang isipan mo! Umayos ka para kay Aki-san!] Halos naiiyak kong sinuway ang aking sarili habang tumatakbo ako pabalik ng site. Nagtaka si Haneda-san sa mabilis at bian kong pagsulpot. Ito kasi mismo ang nagsabing magpahinga muna ako saglit pero hindi manng tumagal ng limang minuto ang pagkaw ko at heto ako ngayon t maslong nadagdagan ang problema.


    "May problema ba, Hanamichi-kun?" kamusta ng matanda sa akin. Kasalukuyan pa itong naghahalo ng semento at tubig.


    Hinihingal naman akong napasagot, "P-pasensiya na, Haneda-san. May nakakita k-kasi sa ''kin at baka akin niyang w akong ginagawa kaya bumalik nang ako," pagpapaliwanag ko.


    "At sino namang nakakita sa ''yo? Sa inaasal mo ngayon para kang nakakita ng multo," aniya sa sobrang pagkamangha habang nagpupunas siya ng pawis sa kanyang noo gamit ang braso niya na may mantsa ng semento na nahaluan na ng tubig pero hindi iyon naging ab sa kanya.


    Napabuntonghininga naman ako. "Hindi ko po kla. Nakasuot siya ng itim na tuxedo at mukha siyang yayamanin," pagkukuwento ko.


    "Tuxedo? Mkas ba ang kanyang dating?" usisa nito na htang naintriga.


    Tumango naman ako bng pagsang-ayon. "Opo."


    Napakamot si Haneda-san sa kanyang batok bago napa-tsk sa pagkadismaya. "Mukhang si Shimada-san yata ang nakita mo." "Shimada-san?" pag-uulit ko sabay napakunot ang noo.


    [Kamag-anak kaya siya ni Kazuki-san?] Sa isip-isip ko pero kung titingnang mabuti, mki nga ang pagkakahawig nng dwa. Tumango si Haneda-san. "Marahil. Bakit, kla mo?"


    Mabilis akong umiling ng maraming beses. "H-hindi po. Pero pamilyarng sa akin ang apelyido niya," giit ko.


    Napahkhak naman si Haneda-san. "Sa bagay," aniya bago nagpatuloy, "kla ang mga Shimada sa pag-aari ng mga magarbong hotel sa lugar na ito. Kung parehong tao itong nakita mo at tinutukoy ko, wng duda na si Shimada Kazunari-san ang nakaengkuwentro mo kanina. Siya ang may-ari nitong ipapatayong bagong hotel."


    Naki ang mga mata ko at napanganga sabis na pagkamangha. "Matatanggal na po ba ako sa trabaho, Haneda-san?" halos naiiyak kong tanong na nagpatawalo sa aking kausap. "Hanamichi-kun, rx kang," tumatawa nitong pagpapakalma sa ''kin.


    Napakaliit nga ng mundo, ''ika n. Sino''ng mag-aak na sa ganitong paraan ko p unang makikla ang may-ari nitong pinapatayong hotel? Kung siya nga ang tinutukoy ni Haneda-san, ano kaya ang sadya niya rito sa site? [Marahil ay personal niyang inam kung tuloy-tuloy ang trabaho ng mga na-hire nng construction workers,lo na iyong mga baguhanng,] wari ko sa isipan at minabuti nang na tapusin ang naudlot kong gawain kanina.


    Pagsapit ng hapon ay kani-kaniyang nagsiuwian ang mga trabahante.


    "Hanamichi-kun, w ka bang ibangkad ngayong gabi?" tanong ni Haneda-san sa akin.


    Maang akong napailing bago sumagot, "W-w naman po," magng kong wika.


    "Gusto mo bang sumama? Mag-iinuman daw s at dahil isa ka sa mga baguhan, ililibre ka namin," derasiyon nito na sinundan kaagad niya ng pagak na tawa.


    Just a heads up:  is the only ce to read theplete version of this book for free. Don''t miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey! Napalunok naman ako sa narinig. "Pero, Haneda-san... hindi po ako umiinom," nahihiyang amin ko.


    Pinandtan ng mga mata ang kaharap ko. "Gano''n ba? Sayang naman. Sige, ingat ka sa pag-uwi. Sabihan mong ako kung gusto mo ng makakausap o makakasama sa pamamasyal dito. m na m ko ang lugar dahil dito ako lumaki,¡± ani Haneda-san nang nakangiti.


    Nangiti rin ako bng pagsang-ayon. "Maraming smat po, Haneda-san. Ingat din po kayo," pam ko sa kanya bago siya tuluyang umalis.Original from N?velDrama.Org.


    Miss na miss ko na si Aki-san. Pero dahil gusto ko siyang bigyan ng oras para sa kanyang sarili at panahon na pag-isipan anghat, tinitiniis ko ngayon ang mapyo sa kanya. m ng mga magng ko ang tungkol dito at maging s ay aminado na kangan namin ng sari-sariling distansiya upang hindi namin pagsisihan ang mga magiging desisyon namin sa hinaharap. Simpleng naman ang nais ko para kay Aki-san maliban sa mahalin siya ang makita siyang masaya. Akmanglakad na sana ako pauwi nang bing nakaramdam ako ng palamig sa buo kong katawan na sinundan kaagad ng pag-iinit na hindi ko maipaliwanag. Nagsim akong mahirapang huminga at halos umikot ang paningin ko sa buong paligid kaya naman napahinto ako at bahagyang napaluhod sa isa kong tuhod.


    "Bakit ako bing dinw ng heat?" tanong ko sa ''king sarili at kinapa ang d kong bag upang hanapin ang suppressants ko pero napasinghap ako nang w akong mahanap.


    [Lagi akong may dng suppressants kahit saan ako magpunta. Maingat ako sahat ng oras pero ngayonng nangyari ang ganito!] Naiiyak kong sisi sa isipan. Bakit ngayon pa kung kang nasa pampubliko akong lugar?! "Aki-san..." mahinang sambit ko namang sa pangn ng taong mahal ko habang mahigpit na hawak ang aking bag. Pagabi na at hindi ligtas ang manatili dito sa site. Kung nagkataon na may mapadaang Alpha dito, isang mking kamsan sa akin ''yon!


    Kahit na para akong mapapanawan ng ulirat ano mang segundo, pinilit ko pa ring tumayo upang maghanap ng ligtas na lugar para palipasin ang heat ko. Kapag nagpumilit akong umuwi sa ganitong sitwasiyon, wng duda na mamomolestiya ako nang w sa oras.


    Nagpunta ako sa lugar kung saan ako parating nagpapahinga kapag break time namin. Doon ako komportable at wng gaanong napapadpad doon. Pagkarating ko ay kaagad akong natumba paupo sa sahig. Hinihingal pa rin ako at hindi ko pa rin lubos na mawari ang nakapaligid sa akin. Kapag nagpatuloy ito, maaari na tga akong mawn ng my.


    "Aki-san... natatakot ako," sabi ko sa aking sarili kasabay ng pagpatak ng aking mga luha. Matagal na panahon ko nang hindi naranasan ang takot na ito. Magm noong nangyari ang insidenteng iyon ay binaon ko na rin sa limot anghat. Ngayon ay unti-unting nagbabalik sa aking isipan ang bangungot na nagdulot ng mking pagbabago sa buhay ko. Ayokong mag-isip nang ganito pero hindi ko maiwasan dahil myo ako sa mga taong nagpaparamdam sa akin na ligtas ako.


    Tatayo na sana ako para subukang humanap ng mas ligtas na lugar na maaari kong paglipasan ng gabi kung sakaling hindi kumalma itong heat ko pero napatigil ako sa aking kinatatayuan nang may maaninag akong hubog ng isang tao na nalakad pappit sa akin. Sobrang dilim dito kaya hindi ko siya mamukhaan at dagdagan pang hilung-hilo na ako. Tinangka kong tumakbo paalis pero nanginginig ang mga tuhod ko sa sobrang panghihina. May natitira pa naman akongkas upang depensahan ang sarili ko kung sakaling may gawing masama sa akin ang taong nakatayo na ngayon sa harap ko pero hindi ko m kung hanggang saan ko kayang protektahan ang aking sarili.


    "Why is an Omega like you roaming around here so freely?" aniya ng boses na pag-aari ng isanglaki. Pamilyar ang kanyang boses, parang narinig ko na kung saan.


    [Isa kayang Alpha ang isang ''to? Hindi ko maaninag ang kanyang mukha pero may naaamoy akong mahinang Alpha pheromones na nagmum sa kanya,] wari ko sa isipan habang panay ang hakbang ko paatras at bahagyang inalerto ang sarili ko sa maaaring gawin niyaban sa ''kin.


    "Layuan mo ''ko," mahina ngunit puno ng banta na taboy ko sa naturanglaki.


    Narinig ko siyang pagak na napatawa. "You''re obviously suffering pero may gana ka pang magkunwaring matapang?" t namamangha niyang turan. "Aren''t you the guy I saw earlier?" pahabol nitong saad na nagpadt ng mga mata ko sa gt.


    "Shimada-san?!" blas ko. Mas lumapit siya sa akin kaya naman unti-unti ko na ring naro ang kanyang buong anyo at hindi nga ako nagkamali. Siya anglaki kanina na nakita ko! "How did you know me?" tanong nito. Titig na titig siya sa akin. Naaamoy ko pa rin ang Alpha pheromones niya pero hindi siya nagpapakita ng mga senyales na apektado ito sa heat ko. "Nagbaka-sakaling po," magng kong tugon bago ako nagsimng mawn ng bnse. Matutumba na sana ako pero masuwerte akong nasalo nglaki.


    "Oops. Careful now," aniya at mahigpit akong inlayan. "You''re pretty heavy and big for an Omega. You kind of remind me of someone I know," halos pabulong nitong sabi pero hindi ko na binigyang tuon ang mga salita niya dahil ramdam ko nang bumibigay na nang tuluyan ang katawan ko.


    "Aki-san..." muli kong tawag sa pangn ng pinakamamahal ko bago ako nawn ng my.


    Narinig ko pa anglaki na sinubukan akong gisingin pero hindi na tga kaya ng katawan ko. Ngayonng ito nangyari sa akin. Mataas ang sexual arousal ko pero si Aki-san pa rin ang dinadaing ng puso ko. Ang tanging hiling ko namang ngayon ay matapos ang gabing ito na w akong pagsisisihan.


    [Natatakot ako... Aki-san,] ito ang huli kong naisip bago ako bumagsak sa sahig.

 SIDE STORY: 17TH EGO

    CHIHIRO


    ISANG nakakabasag-ulong sakit ang nakapagpabangon sa akin. Paglingon ko sa aking paligid,king taka ko na nandito ako sa isang sofa ngunit may isang bagay ang hindi tama sa mga sandaling ito - hindi ito ang boarding house na tinutuluyan ko!


    Mabilis kong kinapa ang aking sarili. Bukod sa nanghihina pa ako at may hilo pang nararamdaman, hindi ko lubos matukoy kung may nangyaring hindi kaaya-aya sa akin kagabi. W akong mala. Napakasakit ng ulo ko maging ang buo kong katawan.


    Muli akong napasuri sa kabuuan ng lugar. Mmang ay nasa s ako ng kung sino mang nagmamay-ari ng bahay na ito. Malinis at maayos anghat. Htang mayaman din ang may-ari dahil napaka-sosyal ng mga kagamitan. Pero ang tanong: Kaninong bahay ito?


    "Si Shimada-san ang huli kong nakasama kagabi," halos pabulong kong wika sa sarili. Nilinga ko ang bawat sulok ng bahay at nagsim akong kabahan. "Hindi kaya..." Para akong mawawn ng ulirat sa naiisip kong posibilidad. W namang masakit sa bandang likuran ko ngunit hindi ko maiwasang mag-la.


    "I see that you''re up already." Kamuntik na akong mapatalon sa sobrang gt nang may nagsalita sa likod ko.


    "Shimada-san?!" blas ko bago napalunok at prantik akong napatingin sa direksiyon niya.


    Napangisi anglaki sa nakakahiya kong reaksiyon. "Rx. It''s just me," pagpapakalma nito sa ''kin.


    Muli akong napalunok. "A-ano''ng nangyari sa akin, Shimada-san?"


    "You''re asking me that now?" sarkastiko niyang baling habang tumatawa nang pagak.


    Napangiwi ako. "Pasensiya na po sa ab," pagpapaumanhin ko sabay bumalikwas ng tayo. "W akong mala matapos akong mawn ng my. Patawad kung naistorbo kita! Pero nagmamakaawa po ako na huwag n''yo po sana akong tanggalin sa trabaho!"


    Hindi siya kaagad sumagot kaya naman naiyak ako. Hindi pa sapat ang naipon ko para suportahan ang panganganak ni Aki-san. Kahit m kong kaligtasan ko ang nakataya dito, handa akong tiisin at kayanin anghat para sa kanya! "I''m curious. Why is an Omega like you striving this hard? What are your reasons?" bi niyang tanong.


    "Eh...?" lutang ko namang sagot.


    "You''re obviously a free Omega. When I checked on youst night, you didn''t have the mark of an Alpha. Why are you freely exposing yourself in this kind of work? You are aware of the consequences, right?" Naikuyom ko ang mga kamay ko. "Batid ko. Pero kangan ko ang pera. Kai-"


    "I know that it''s not the money that you''re after," putol niya sa akin kaya napasinghap ako. Nakad siya at naupo sa kabng sofa. Pasimple nitong pinulot ang isang pakete ng sigarilyo at nagsindi siya ng isa, bumuga ng usok saka nagpatuloy sa pagsasalita, "Who are you?"


    Pakiramdam ko naman ay umatras ang d ko sa tanong niyang iyon. Bakit interesado siya sa pagkatao ko? Sino ba itong si Shimada-san? Kamag-anak kaya tga siya ni Kazuki-san? Pero isang ang masasabi ko salaking kaharap ko ngayon nakakatakot siya!


    Napalunok ako bago kabadong sumagot, "Hanamichi Chihiro... desu." Halos mabulol pa ako sa huli sa tindi ng tibok ng puso ko ngayon.


    Para namang matatanggal ang baga ko nang mnghap ko ang usok na nagmum sa kanyang sigarilyo. Kita nito ang pagngiwi ng mukha ko pero pinili niyang huwag iyong pansinin at muli akong inusisa. "W akong kla na mga Hanamichi. You must be new to the construction site but I can''t help but think that you have a familiar scent lingering all over you," aniya sa napakaseryosong ekspresiyon.


    [Familiar scent? Ang heat scent ko ba ang tinutukoy niya?] Wika ko sa isipan. Imposibleng pamilyar siya sa akin dahil ngayonng kami nagkakla.


    "A-anong ibig mong sabihin, Shimada-san?" nahihiya kong tanong. Titig na titig pa rin siya sa akin sa mga sandaling ito. Ito ang unang pagkakataon na takot na takot ako sa isang Alpha.


    Hindi siya kumibo. Bagkus ay bahagya niyang iniwas ang tingin sa akin pero kaagad din ibinalik at sa bawat segundong lumilipas ay dama ko ang kanyang Alpha pheromones na unti-unting binabalot itong buong bahay. Para bang hinay-hinay niya akong kinukulong sa loob! Hindi ko ito nasagap noong kasagsagan ng heat ko kagabi kaya naman hindi ako mapakali at gusto ko nang umalis dito pero hindi ko magawa. Kusang nanghihina ang katawan ko.


    [Ganito p ang pakiramdam kapag kaharap mo ang isang dominant Alpha? Sobrang nasanay na ako kay Sensei noon kaya naging kampante ako masyado. Hindi ko akin na darating ang araw na masasabi kong nakakatakot p maging isang Omega.]


    "Hey, why are you trembling? It''s not like I''m viting you or something," t mangha nitong turan nang mapansin niya ang kasalukuyang kgayan ko ngayon.


    [W ka ngang ginagawa sa ''kin pero kusang nagre-react ang Omega instincts ko sa Alpha pheromones mo!] Inis kong isip-isip. Ayoko nang magtagal pa dito. Gusto ko nang umuwi at mahagkan si Aki-san.


    Hindi ko na namyan na nakpit na p si Shimada-san sa akin. Sa sobrang pagka-distract ko ay hindi ko na napansin ang ng pulgadang distansiya ng aming mga katawan. Mabilis akong napaigtad pyo ngunit nagawa niya akong hawakan sa kanang braso at puwersahang hin ppit sa kanya, kaya naman nagtama ang aming mga dibdib. Kaagad na nag-init ang katawan ko sa magkahalong kaba at hiya. Nakita iyon nglaki at napangisi siya atlong lumalim ang kanyang interes.


    "Like I''ve said, it''s rare to seerge types of Omegas like you," pabulong niyang saad sa kaliwa kong tainga kasabay ng paghigpit ng hawak niya sa braso ko. Halos magkasinking ang mga katawan namin pero hindi ko siya magawang itk pyo kagaya ng ginawa ko kay Arisawa-san noon. "I wonder if your tough look matches you down here." Pagkasabi niya n''yon ay bi niya akong hinipo sa aking likuran. Mabilis na dumilim ang paningin ko at sa isang ip ay nagawa kong pign siya sa kanyang ginagawa at galit na itink siya sa pader dahn upang mapaungol siya sa sakit na natamo ng kanyang likod. "Fuck," mahina niyang mura habang nakangisi nang mpad. "Huwag na huwag mong mamaliitin ang pagkatao ko!" singhal ko sa kanya at maslong idiniin ang pagkakatk ko sa kanya.


    "Heh. And here I thought that I would like to tease you a little bit. I give up so you can let go now," aniya na parang natawa pa sa tindi ng naging reaksiyon ko.


    Kaagad ko naman siyang binitawan at dumistansiya sa kanya ng ng metro bago ko siya sinagot, "Hindi ko basta-bastang ibibigay sa isang katd mo ang sarili ko. Isa nga akong Omega at marami akong kahinaan pero nangako ako na poprotektahan ko ang taong mahal ko anumang mangyari."


    "Stop being so dramatic," pabng niyang tugon bago ito naupo ulit sa sofa. "You reek of someone else''s pheromone."


    "Huh?"


    Just a heads up:  is the only ce to read theplete version of this book for free. Don''t miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey!


    Nagtaas siya ng ky. "What? You didn''t know?" hindi makapaniw nitong wika.


    "Hindi kita maintindihan," ani ko.


    Napabuntonghininga siya sa pagkadismaya. "You went all the way here, had your heat in a public ce, and you''re not even a bonded Omega and you are saying that you have no idea that you were temporarily marked? Howughable." "Temporarily marked? Ngayon kong narinig ang tungkol diyan," pag-aamin ko. Medyo kumalma na ang aura ng kausap ko kaya naw na rin ang takot na nararamdaman ko.


    "Seriously? I bet you were overly pampered by your parents then," hinuha niya. At hindi siya nagkakamali doon. "Temporary marks can only be done by Alphas who are possessive towards their Omegas. An Alpha leaves behind his scent on his Omega, sending warning signals to other Alphas to not touch his possession. There are many reasons why Alphas do this, though. It is either he can''t bond with that Omega or would want to own multiple Omegas but have no ns on making them his mates. Either way, this is only effective on Alphas and Omegas who are not yet mates."


    Literal akong napanganga. "Posible kaya na minarkahan ako ni Aki-san... para maprotektahan akoban sa ibang Alphas?" Saad ko sa kawn.


    "Aki-san? Is that your Alpha''s name?" interesadong tanong ni Shimada-san.


    Masaya naman akong napatango sabay nag-blush. "Mm!"


    "I see. But the way you reacted earlier, I wonder if your Alpha was unaware that he marked you," aniya. "You seemed really vulnerable sincest night. Thanks to his pheromones, I couldn''t do anything to you. But setting that side, I don''t really get affected by Omega heats that much."


    "Kaya p hindi ko rin gaanong naamoy ang pheromones mo kahit na napakpit mo sa akin," ani ko sabay iwas ng tingin.


    "Aki-san...?" muli niyang sambit kaya napatingin ako sa gawi niya. "Are you perhaps pertaining to Izumi Aki?"


    Para namang nanuyo anglamunan ko nang mmang t may kaugnayan sng dwa. Hindi naman mahga sa akin ang mga naging nakaraan ni Aki-san pero hindi ko pa rin maiwasang magselos. Mahina akong tumango sa kanyang tanong. "Oo."


    Napahkhak anglaki. "What a small world!" blas niya. "Never did I thought that I would get to hear his name again."


    "May kaugnayan ka ba sa kanya?" seryoso kong tanong.


    Bi namang napalitan ng pilyong ekspresiyon ang mukha ni Shimada-san na kinainis ko. "And if I said ''yes''?"


    Naikuyom ko naman ang aking mga kamay. "Ano ang kaugnayan mo kay Aki-san?!" buska ko sa kanya. Sino ba tga itong si Shimada-san?


    Just a heads up:  is the only ce to read theplete version of this book for free. Don''t miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey!


    "I know very little of him but I do know that he''s an Alpha doctor," pagsisim niya. "I knew him because of my Omega brother." "Omega-?


    "He was three years older than me. We came from a family of Alphas. Him being born the eldest and the only Omega - his existence was considered as heretic," pagsisiwt nito. "We grew up being separated from him and were told to never get near him or involved with him. But sometimes, I would catch him making weird nces at us; we had another brother who was also an Alpha who was four years younger than me. I didn''t understand why was that or what were the consequences of having an Omega in a household that were full of Alphas. I didn''t despise him but I didn''t get to know my brother that well either. He was like a stranger to me. We would only see and meet him during very special assions and urgent family matters but I never had any proper conversations with him," kuwento niya habang nakatitig sa myo. "When I reached the right age and learned about the differences of Alphas, Betas and Omegas, that was when I finally understood the meaning of my older brother''s weird nces at us. He wasn''t looking at us in a weird way. He was actually asking for a little bit of attention, hoping that one of us would give him some affection but no one did - no one dared to. It was already toote when I realized all of that. He was already seized out of the house when he was just sixteen just because he became mates with his very own private tutor who happened to be an Alpha. My parents were furious towards him even though he did nothing wrong. His innocence and weakness were taken for granted,


    "By the time we knew about his current situation, he was already living a sessful life while hiding his real identity from everyone. Izumi Aki was one of the reasons that he reached this far. I heard they were really close friends and that he has been supporting my brother while protecting his very secret. I thought the two would end up together but then you came along." Pagkatapos ng napakahaba niyang istorya ay muli niyang itinuon ang tingin at atensiyon sa akin. "How did Izumi Aki end up with you instead... Hanamichi Chihiro?"


    Napalunok ako sa biang tanong at sa nman ko ngayon. Wng duda na si Okuda Kazuki-san ang tinutukoy nitong kaharap ko dahil siyang naman ang kla kong mpit kay Aki-san. Sa dinami-rami ng Alpha na maaari kong makaengkuwentro, kapatid pa tga ng best friend ng pinakamamahal ko?! Napakatuso ng tadhana!


    "Mahabang kuwento..." tipid kong tugon bago bahagyang iniyuko ang ulo ko. Pakiramdam ko ay habang papyo nang papyo ako kay Aki-san ay mas maraming bagay akong natutusan na may kaugnayan sa kanya at dito ko napapatunayan na sobrang kaunting ng m ko tungkol sa kanya. Nakakapanghinayang dahil hindi naikukuwento ni Aki-san sa ''kin ang mga bagay na ito. Para bang... hindi pa niya akobis na pinagkakatiwan. Dahil ba sa bata pa ako? O dahil isa akong Omega at ayaw niya akong mapahamak? Pakiramdam ko naman ay mapupunit ang puso ko sa magkahalong pagkadismaya at sakit. Simpleng naman ang hangad ko: ang makita ni Aki-san na handa akong tanggapin anghat ng mayroon siya - negatibo man o positibo- ang maramdaman niyang kahit sa murang edad kong ito ay kaya kong panindigan ang mga desisyon ko sa buhay.


    Hindi ko na namyan ang lihim kong pagkuyom sa aking mga kamay upang ikubli ang namumuong galit sa dibdib ko ngunit hindi ko naitago iyon dahil pumatak ang mga traydor kong luha. Tinitigan ako ni Shimada-san pero w itong imik. D ng hiya at inis, agresibo kong pinunasan ang aking mga luha bago suminghot. Panay ang linga ko salaking nakatingin pa rin sa akin. Hindi ko m kung ano ang ipnapahiwatig ng mga titig niya sa akin. Sa sobrang tindi nito ay para akong malulusaw sa pagkaasiwa.


    "You must be something," bi niyang saad at nagkasalubong ang tingin namin sa isa''t isa. Bahagya siyang ngumisi bago nagsalitang muli, "I wonder what kind of rtionship you have with that doctor."


    "Si Aki-san ang future mate ko," pagmamki ko pero tinawanan niya iyon.


    "Mate? Are you insane?" manghang blas niya. "Does he even feel the same way about you? If so, why bother marking you temporarily and not biting your nape instead? Mas matibay na derasiyon iyon ng pag-aari kaysa temporary marking."


    Muli kong ikinuyom ang mga kamay ko at pasinghal siyang sinagot, "Hindi kita lubusang kla at hindi mo rin m ang buong istorya ko kaya w kang karapatang husgahan ako o ang pribadong buhay ko, Shimada-san. m kong boss kita pero hindi po kita hahayaang tapakan ang pagkatao ko dahilng sa isa akong Omega. Kung ano man po ang namamagitan sa amin ni Aki-san aybas ka na po doon." Napabuga naman ako ng mlim na buntonghininga bago humingi ng paumanhin. "Mawng gng na po kung nabastos man kita."


    Sumy ang isang natutuwang ngiti sa kanyang mgabi. "You''re really interesting." Sa mga sandaling ito ay unti-unti ko nang naiisip na parang may sayad sa pag-iisip anglaking ito. Siya ang tipo ng Alpha na ayaw kong makasmuha tga. Napabuntonghininga nang ako ulit. "Anyways, if you''re feeling fine then you may take your leave," pag-iiba niya ng usapan. "Since you went through a lotst night, I''ll let you take the day off but-!" aniya bago ako taimtim na tinitigan. "Only this once, understood?"


    Napatango naman ako nang w sa oras. "Opo!"


    "Also, pretend that we didn''t have this chat today." Pagkasabi niya n''yon ay tumayo siya at nakad paalis.Content is property of N?velDrama.Org.


    Sinabi niya sa akin ang daan pbas ng kanyang bahay at hindi na niya ako sinubaybayan hanggang sa makaalis na ako. Binilinan niya akong maging mas maingat sa susunod pero maliban doon ay w na siyang sinabi pa sa akin. Hindi ko tuloy maiwasang isipin na para siyang weirdo. Mabilis din magbago ang kanyang aura. Hindi ko m kung ang nakausap ko kanina ay ang totoong siya o baka pagpapanggapng anghat.


    Pero ang mahga ay ligtas ako at hindi ako na-harass. Kung totoo man ang sinasabi ni Shimada-san na may temporary marking nga ako, kung isa siyang dominant Alpha hindi mahirap para sa kanya ang pagsamanthan ako dahil sobrang nanghina ako kagabi. Kahit na kaya kong depensahan ang sarili ko, kung ibang Alpha siguro ang nakakita sa akin ay mki ang posibilidad na umuuwi na akong luhaan ngayon o ''di kaya ay may mabigat na responsibilidad nang dinad. "Ayoko man aminin pero baka hindi siya ganoon kasamang Alpha," medyo natatawa kong kausap sa sarili bago tuluyang nilisan ang bahay ni Shimada-san.

 SIDE STORY: 18TH EGO

    AKI


    I SUDDENLY got a call from Chihiro yesterday. He calls me on a daily basis, usually after his working hours but there was one time that he didn''t contact me at all. Of course, I panicked a little but I didn''t want to be overly pessimistic so I assumed that maybe he had a tough day and got to bed early.


    But that wasn''t the case.


    The following day, bi niya akong tinawagan ng mga bandang s ocho ng umaga. He sounded somewhat tired and to me, it was as if he just cried. Kinumusta niya ako - kagaya ng pgi niyang ginagawa - pero nanginginig ang kanyang boses kaya wng pagdadwang-isip ko siyang kinompronta. And when he told me that he had his heat, I almost lost my cool. He exined everything to me, including the fact that he woke up on a stranger''s house on the next day. Naikuwento din niya na ang nagmamay-ari ng tinatrabaho nng hotel building ang nakasaksi nang mangyari ang kanyang heat.


    Halos hindi ako makapaniw. I knew that unwanted circumstances like that could happen to Chihiro at some point but what I didn''t expect was that the stranger who helped him¡ªwho was also his boss was an Alpha.


    As an Alpha myself, I am very aware of the dangers of being affected by an Omega''s heat. I always had high tolerance against their heat pheromones but still, several factors could trigger my rut. My most unforgettable experience was that of Khan. I had to inject myself five times just to subdue my rut and reduce the risk of hurting my friend. Okuda, who was not yet his mate at that time, almost got into trouble. Good thing Chihiro was there to help me restrain him.


    If instances like that were to happen again, I have no idea what might happen. I never wanted to see Chihiro in that helpless state. And I never wanted the idea of losing my self control and forcibly put a mark on his nape. Chihiro already had a horrifying past. I don''t want to see the disgusted look on his face as he states his despise against Alphas.


    "Chidori-san, I want to go and see Chihiro." I announced at bing natigil si Chidori-san sa kanyang ginagawa. Kasalukuyan itong nagdidilig ng kanyang mga pananim na bk.


    "Pero, Aki-san..." he wanted to say something but I cut him off.


    "He needs me," mabilis kong saad. "He had his heat in public because he forgot to bring his suppressants that day," pagsisim ko at napasinghap si Chidori-san. "His Alpha boss witnessed everything and brought Chihiro into his house. Chihiro spent the whole night there... with the presence of another Alpha. Hindi nilinaw ni Chihiro sa akin kung ayosng siya but he told me he was safe, at least. Let me see him. I will be careful not to do anything too stressful." Bakas sa mukha ng ina ni Chihiro angbis na pag-ala. He was clearly against the idea of me leaving the house all by myself but I was determined to see his son. He sighed in defeat before speaking, "Sige pero mag-iingat ka, Aki-san. Masn ang pagbubuntis mo.


    Bahagya akong nangiti. "I will. After all, I promised Chihiro that I will try my best on taking care of myself while he was away."


    "Magagalit si Hiromi kapag nman niya ito pero ako ang bah sa kanya," ani Chidori-san. "Tawagan mo ako kapag nagkita na kayo ng anak ko. Miss na miss ko na si Hirhi,¡± dagdag pa nito at tumango ako bng pagsang-ayon. After that, I brought some things with me and left the house.


    .


    Just to be safe, I brought medicines with me. Kapag nagkita na kami ni Chihiro, I will give him a check-up and extra suppressants to better help him with his heat.


    The fastest and easiest solution to our problem was to make Chihiro my mate but we both decided not to be mates bearing only half-assed feelings and uncertainty of regretting our actionster on. But frankly speaking, Chihiro was all ready. It was me who insisted and pursued him to think things through.


    "What am I doing? Doesn''t this mean that I already have fallen for him?" Kausap ko sa sarili bago napabuntong hininga. "But me being pregnant could only be feeling attached to him because we are connected with this thing growing inside of me."


    [What should I do? Will things really turn out fine if we keep doing this?] I thought to myself.


    When I was about to take out my phone to make a call, someone bumped into me and stopped me from walking. When I looked up to see kung sinong bunangga sa akin ay nandt ang mga mata ko. "Jirou...?" My voice almost cracked by simply uttering his name.


    Htang nagt din ang kaharap ko ngayon at hindi inasahan ang pagkikita namin but he decided to act calm and put on a gentle smile before saying, "It''s been a while, Izumi." That was unexpected. He was stubborn at calling me by my given name no matter how many times I told him not to. Addressing me as ''Izumi'' now kind of sounded like we were back to being in acquaintances.


    Totoo nga naman. After Chihiro and him had a fight, I literally cut ties with him and announced him as nothing more than but a stranger.


    I unknowingly cleared my throat. "Y-yeah. I didn''t see youing."


    [What the fuck is with this awkwardness?!] I screamed in my mind while averting my attention from Jirou. He was surprisingly unaffected by our sudden meeting.


    "Are you going somewhere?" he asked, his eyes were fixated on my backpack.


    "Yes. I''m heading to the train station," I responded.


    "I see," he softly uttered before staring at me intently. "It''s not yet that obvious pero ng buwan na iyang dinad mo?"


    [How could I forget? This guy was an OB-Gyne. Of course, he would notice,] I thought while furrowing my brows. I was wearing a loose coat but he still saw through my clothing.


    "I''m not so sure but it is around five, I think," maang kong sagot habang nag-iiwas ng tingin.


    "Are you getting enough nutrition? Vitamins? It is quite small. You should see a doctor and schedule monthly check-ups," he suggested. "Pregnancy in Alphas is rare and quite risky. Alphas are not really meant to bear children but since there are others who are obsessed at keeping their Alpha lineage, circumstances like these happen," aniya bago ito bing napangisi. "But to be impregnated by an Omega... it''s hrious."


    I snapped at him. "Fuck off, Arisawa! W ka nang pakim sa buhay ko!"


    "Calm down, Izumi," he said while looking around us. People walking by noticed our heated conversation and began whispering. "Hindi ako naparito para manggulo. We just happened to bump onto each other. I am merely being sympathetic towards you."


    "I don''t need it so fuck off. Umalis ka sa daanan ko," pagtataboy ko sa kanya pero hindi manng ito natinag sa kanyang kinatatayuan.


    Jirou then moved to my right side and put his right hand on my shoulder before whispering, "Schedule a check-up at my office. I will give you a discount," he offered and that gave me the shivers.


    Marahas kong winakli ang kanyang kamay. "Stop fucking around, Arisawa! Lubayan mo na ako! We already ended everything months ago," buska ko sa kanya.


    Jirou scoffed before breaking a broken and creepyugh. "Are you acting this way because you are pregnant and doesn''t want to be stressed or you''re just afraid to ept the fact that you were forced to go with that pathetic Omega because you identally had a child with him and you have no choice but pretend you care?"


    Right after he spouted those nonsense, I finally lost my control and went berserk. I balled my hands into a fist and was about to punch him in the face when I realized that I lost my bnce. Both of us saw iting and we barely even had the time to react. I was going to fall for sure!


    I tried to stop it from happening but it was toote. All I could do was close my eyes shut and hope I don''tnd on my stomach. Then something caught me. When I opened my eyes, I saw Chihiro. "Chihiro?!" I eximed, hindi makapaniw sa nakikita ko ngayon.


    Chihiro who was panting and out of breath tightly but gently wrapped me inside his big, warm arms before warning Jirou. "Layuan mo si Aki-san, Arisawa-san. Hindi ako magdadwang-isip na kbanin ka kung sasaktan mo siya!" Kung kanina ay t nag-la nang bahagya si Jirou sa akin, ngayon ay napalitan na ito ng iritasyon dahil nakita niya si Chihiro. "Seriously? Why did you have to appear now? I was having a fun time with Izumi," dismayado at t galit niyang saad.

    Chihiro clenched his teeth. "Umalis ka na!"


    "Chihiro, I am fine." Sinubukan kong awatin s sa pamamagitan ng pagpapakalma ko kay Chihiro. Ramdam ko ang tensiyon nito dahil kahit yakap-yakap niya ako ay nanginginig pa rin ang kanyang braso.


    Jirou sighed in defeat. "Ah, I give up. I really just wanted to help, Izumi," kausap nito sa akin, paying no attention to the guy who just snapped at him a while ago. Pagkatapos n''yon ay tinalikuran na niya kaming dwa saka ito nakad paalis. Kums naman ako m sa pagkakayakap sa ''kin ni Chihiro at hinarap siya. "Hey, he''s gone. It''s fine. You can calm down now." "Aki-san, hindi ka ba niya sinaktan?!" Nag-alang tanong nito sa akin sabay hinawakan ang magkab kong balikat. He was clearly scared there for a moment.


    "I am okay. He didn''t do anything," I said and changed the subject. "Why are you here? Aren''t you supposed to be working?"


    [And here I thought I could pay him a surprise visit,] I thought to myself na may kasamang panghihinayang.


    Kumalma naman siya nang kaunti bago sinagot ang tanong ko, "Nagpam ako na magle-leave muna, Aki-san." "What?!" blas ko. "Baka matanggal ka sa trabaho niyan!"


    "Maayos akong nagpam, sa mismong boss namin," pagsisiguro niya.


    [Boss? He''s talking about the Alpha that saw him during his heat, isn''t he? Remembering that pissed me off for some reason.]


    "But still, you could''ve told me na uuwi ka p," I told him.


    Napakamot naman si Chihiro sa kanyang batok bago sumagot, "Pasensiya ka na kung pinag-la kita, Aki-san."


    I shouldn''t worry about that stuff anymore. All I wanted was to see him in person again.


    "I''ve missed you." I uttered those words in a very soft and low voice, almost like a whisper to myself.


    "Aki-san?" Chihiro cupped my cheeks with his hands when he noticed that I was somewhat distracted.


    [I''ve really missed the feeling of his touch, the warmth of his loving hands when they touch my skin... I missed everything about this guy. Is there any way to resist this giant angel?] I almost cried while having these thoughts.


    I held his hands that he used to cup my cheeks and gently put them away before Iunched myself at him and hugged him tightly. Since my belly was starting to take the shape of that a ball, it kind of bounced back when our bodies bumped into each other.


    "You, idiot. I thought something bad happened to you," sabi ko sa kanya. I heard him chuckle a little then he hugged me back.


    "Natakot ako, Aki-san," pag-aamin nito kaya prantik akong napating upang titigan siya sa mga mata. "Pero pinilit kong lumaban dahil ayokong pagtaksn ka at gawing dahn ang heat ko. Kahit na isa akong Omega kaya kong ipagtanggol ang sarili ko sa kahit na sinong magtangka sa akin. At gano''n din ang gagawin ko sa mga mananakit sa ''yo."


    "If you''re worried about that bastard (Jirou) a while ago, I will never let him hurt me. I can no longer deny the fact that we had a connection and I wish I could rewrite everything for you to have a better impression on me but..." Somehow, telling him these again made me ufortable.?

    I never wished for someone like Chihiro toe to my life¡ªmaybe I did - but to actually meet someone like him... I couldn''t just cope up with it that easily. I was so used of setting my feelings aside without having the fear ofmitting myself because there was no need. I had already prepared myself from being alone forever but then...


    "...I met you..." I uttered to myself.


    Maybe Chihiro overhead me and his grasped on my waist tightened a bit. "Aki-san, huwag mo nang lahanin si Arisawa-san. Umuwi nang tayo," he offered with a smile but I could see through his feelings. He was uneasy but he didn''t want to ask me about it.


    "Yeah. Let''s talk back at the house," I agreed and forced a smile.


    I shouldn''t let things end today as it is. This could be moreplicated and fixing it would be more challenging if not impossible. I don''t want to treat Chihiro like those of my sex friends.


    [He is different from them. He is not one of them. He is nothing like them,] I thought while clenching my teeth.


    .


    .


    Pagkarating namin sa bahay aybis na natuwa si Chidori-san nang makita ang anak. Nakauwi na rin si Hiromi-san galing sa trabaho at marahil ay naikuwento ng asawa niya sa kanya ang nangyari kay Chihiro dahil naging kampante ito nang makitang ligtas ang anak at wng anumang senyales na siya ay nadehado.


    "I am so d that you''re safe," Hiromi-san uttered. Bakas sa mukha nito ang takot at iyon ang unang pagkakataong nakita ko siyang ganoon ka lang-la.


    "Sa susunod, tawagan mo kaagad kami ng papa mo at susunduin ka namin kaagad kahit nasaan ka pa, anak," Chidori-san said with tears.


    Naiyak na rin pati si Chihiro. "Sorry po. Sorry sa inyonghat. Inisip ko kasi na kaya kongmpasan ang nangyari na hindi kayo inaab. Natakot po ako, Ma-chan, Tou-chan!"


    Watching and hearing them having this conversation from a distance pricked my heart. A part of me wished my parents were like this whenever I was in trouble. I wished they also feared the idea of losing their only son and they happened to be not there to save him.


    Now that I am about to have and raise a child of my own, all I could of is to never let this child experience what I''ve experienced. I may not be the perfect parent and the most ideal Alpha ''mother'' but I wanted to at least prove that I am capable of protecting the people that are dear to me.


    [If I be mates with Chihiro, they will be my new family...] I thought while looking at the trio that were stillforting each other.


    "Aki-san, ano''ng ginagawa mo riyan? Halika rito," yaya ni Chidori-san sa ''kin and gestured his arm open, weing me for a family hug.


    I found that very dramatic but very sweet at the same time. I could never win against these kind of people. They are just... too radiant.


    Sinunod ko si Chidori-san at nakiyakap sa kanng tatlo. Being snuggled in between these three giants was a scary thought but it felt the other way for me. It felt cozy and ensuring.


    But everything was just the beginning. The real struggle was yet toe...


    ...and I didn''t see iting.

 SIDE STORY: 19TH EGO

    JIROU


    .


    MY NAME is Arisawa Jirou, a 35-year-old Alpha who is currently... drifted away from my main goal in life.


    Before I met Izumi Aki, who was also an Alpha like me with a very particr taste in sex partners, I was never fond of having sex friends but wasn''t against it either. Like most Alphas do, I was living my life wlessly and free from stress. I didn''t need to exert much effort in societypared to Betas and Omegas. I was living a quite sessful life while working as an OB-Gyne and pediatrician.


    But when Aki came to the picture, I started to be greedy and possessive. There was no need for me to do that because he wasn''t my mate and we were not in a legal rtionship. The more time I spent with him, the feelings inside continued growing. At first, I thought it was just an adrenaline rush effect of having a sex friend that constantly called out to me when he was brokenhearted. I knew he was no pure Alpha the moment Iid my hands on his body but that didn''t gross me out. It made me curious, instead.


    Sa tuwing naala ko ang mga sandaling desperadong kumapit at umasa si Aki sa akin noong siya ay wng-w at para nang mababaliw ay nakaramdam ako ng superiorityplex. I thought for a moment that I already had control over him and maybe it was time to actually pursue his feelings for real.


    Until I met his Omega secretary...


    Just the sight of his stupid looking face made me want to make him drop dead. He was an Omega but his strong presence was like that of an Alpha- and that only made my hatred grow worse. I knew that Aki was once attracted to an Omega who was his very close friend and I kept telling him to move on and stop falling for Omegas anymore pero marupok si Aki. He would deny it but he was clearly infatuated with his secretary.


    I found people like that utterly foolish for falling for the same reason why they got brokenhearted again and again. Why can''t they just be rational and ept the harsh truth about life? In this world where society is divided into Alphas, Betas, and Omegas, true love is nothing but a false hope.


    Even fated pairs and soul bonds are a big fathom created by those who are blinded by false love.


    "Arisawa-san, may bisita po kayo." Natigil ako sa pagsust nang tawagin ako ng intern na si Umeno Hajime. Isa siyang Beta college student at sa akin siya na-assign. I already have a secretary but Umeno here serves as a help extension. Nilingon ko anglaking tumawag sa pangn ko na wng kaemo-emosiyon. Napapig ito dahil baka naab na naman niya ako nang makita nitong may hawak akong ballpen at ng papeles. Nagsim siyang kabahan at dali-daling nag-iwas ng tingin at hinanda ang sarili niya sa isasagot ko.


    "Regr patient ko ba?" I casually asked him at medyo naka-rx si Umeno nang mapagtantong kalmado ang boses ko.


    Mahina siyang umiling. "Hindi po pero pinapasabi po n na kangan niya kayong makausap."


    [That''s unusual. Who could it be? I wasn''t expecting anyone today. In fact, I don''t have any ns these days let alone meeting someone,] I thought to myself.


    "What''s their name?" tanong ko sa kanya.


    Umeno fidgeted and abruptly adjusted his square eyesses before frantically answering, "I-Izumi Aki po, doc."


    My jaw dropped in shock with my eyes wide open. Am I hearing it right? We just happened to see each other the other day and when I offered him to have his monthly pregnancy check-up on my clinic, he pretty much declined. Did he change his mind?


    I cleared my throat when I noticed Umeno''s weird stare at me. "Okay. I''ll be there in a minute." Sabi ko sabay tumayo at itinabi ang papel na kanina ay hawak-hawak kong. "And Umeno, i-cancel mo anghat ng mag-i-schedule ng check-up ngayong araw. Tell them I had an emergency," pahabol kong utos sa kanya.


    Mabilis na tumango si Umeno. "Opo, Arisawa-san!" he agreed at nag-salute pa ang tanga.


    Sometimes I wonder why I epted this Beta as my intern. He''s clearly awkward in so many ways and he seemed to have troublemunicating with other people properly. But other than that, he is pretty useful around for some random errands on the clinic.


    Pagkbas ko sa waiting area ay bumungad sa akin ang pagmumukha ni Aki. He looked like he was in a bad mood. Today, he wore a very thick coat with a hoodie that he put down. He told me that his tummy was more or less on its fifth month but it was quite small. As a doctor, I am worried that he might be going through so much stress that it''s affecting his pregnancy. If this continues and he didn''t see a doctor soon, he might suffer. Not to mention that he''s an Alpha. Alphas were not designed to bear children. Chances were very low but if sessful, the pregnancy period was always risky. In Aki''s case, not only that he was an Alpha, he is not yet mated. If he happens to be exposed to an Omega in heat, he will still lose himself.


    "What brings you here... Izumi?" I tried to sound so casual as I could, hiding my difort of seeing him again. This difort was not disgust. It was making me ufortable because my hopes of getting him back would slowly envelope my being.


    "I need to have a word with you," he started without breaking his re at me, his arms crossed.


    I scoffed. "I see. Have a seat," I offered. Nagdwang-isip siya pero kunan ay naupo rin ito sa isang bakanteng upuan. I sat beside him. That startled Aki but he didn''t move aside so I decided to keep a safe distance between us to wipe off the difort in his face.


    [Whye here if you''re gonna act like some kind of a shy virgin?] I sarcastically thought to myself while secretly grinning. If I actually told him this now I bet he''d be dead furious and kill me.


    "So... what''s your business?" I asked directly, staring right into his eyes.


    Aki was wary of me but he was brave enough to meet my gaze. If he was an Omega, he wouldn''t be able to stand up against someone like me. "I know you, Arisawa," pagsisim niya bago nagpatuloy, "You are a persistent person and you will do everything in your power to achieve what you want."


    I chuckled. "Oh? I never guessed that you actually observed my personality. I thought I was only one of your ''friends''," mangha kong turan.


    Lalo namang tumalim ang tingin niya sa ''kin dahil sa sinabi ko. "Nevery your hands on Chihiro. He''s got nothing to do with all the bullshits that I have done in the past," he warned.


    "What makes you think that I would target that Omega?"


    "Because right now, I am vulnerable and useless against any Alphas that would try to hurt Chihiro. And I know that you will take advantage of that," aniya.


    "It''s as if you''re saying that I''m a dirty yer. That hurts my feelings, Izumi. Parang w tayong pinagsamahan," I said while looking a little hurt although a part of me wanted to burst intoughter for hearing Aki say these stupid words. I knew that he was a vulnerable Alpha but I never thought that he was this na?ve. It''s pitiful to see him like this. He is clearly blinded by his stupid infatuation towards that stupid Omega. Ah, really. Why not just bond with that Omega already if he was this concerned? Aki could simply retract their bond if he got tired of him.


    Just a heads up:  is the only ce to read theplete version of this book for free. Don''t miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey!


    Simple as that.


    "You''re a sly person, Arisawa. Your words doesn''t match your actions," mariin niyang turan.


    "Really?" I raised an eyebrow before grabbing his left arm and forcefully pulled him up.


    "Wha-?! Let go of me!" pg ni Aki pero hindi ko siya ininda. Bagkus ay din ko siya sa kuwarto kung saan ako nagsasagawa ng ultrasounds ng mga pasyente ko. "Arisawa, bitawan mo ''ko!" pasigaw niyang utos. "Ari-" Sisigaw pa sana siya ulit pero marahas ko siyang tink pahiga sa hospital bed.


    Isang mkas na kmpag ang umalingawngaw sa loob ng kuwarto. Kaagad kong ni-lock ang pinto upang hindi makatakas si Aki. Namuo ang takot sa buong mukha niya.


    "Since you think that I am that kind of person... then let us have sex again just like we used to. I will make you feel good until you forget about that stupid Omega," I said while panting heavily like a beast. "Don''t do this, Arisawa!" pagmamakaawa niya.


    "Scream all you want but no one will help you here, Izumi," ani ko sabay napatawa nang pagak. Sinamant ni Aki ang pagkakataon at nagmadaling bumangon ito pero pinign ko siya. "Where do you think you''re going?" I asked in a devilish tone habang nakapaibabaw ako kay Aki at pigil-pigil ko ang mga braso niya gamit ang mga kamay ko. He was surprisingly weak, much weaker when Ist held him.


    Aki gasped in fear and droplets of tears began forming in the corner of his eyes. His petrified expression made me excited and I totally forgot his current situation. "Arisawa, you bastard! Fuck off and let me go!" he cursed. He tried using his foul mouth against me, hoping to scare me off but it was not enough to faze my desire and anger at the same time.


    [Why am I so desperate to make hime back to me? Our bodily rtionship ended months ago. He already dumped me. I was no different from all those sex friends that he had. He already made his choice. What is there to fight for?] "Ah, really. This is so hrious..." I muttered to myself beforeughing hysterically. That scared Aki even more but what made him shiver was when I forcefully kissed him on the lips. That took him by surprise. I managed to slip my tongue in for a second but he fought back by biting my tongue. "Argh!" I grunted and distanced my face from him. Blood was now dripping from my mouth. The bite stings but the stinging pain in my chest was much more painful to bear. It felt like it would burst any second if he kept rejecting me like this.


    "Wake up, Arisawa! I didn''te here to reconcile with you!" Aki eximed. His body was trembling all over. Given his weakened state, I could easily knock him out.


    "Shut up! You have no idea what I''m feeling right now, Izumi! Sa kab nghat ng ginawa ko para sa ''yo ay gano''n mo ako kadaling binalew! I can''t forgive you for that!" singhal ko sa kanya and his tears finally trickled down. "I''m sorry..." he softly apologized and started to sob as he averted his eyes from mine.


    "Sorry for what? For making me look like a fool?" pabng kong tugon.


    "I didn''t expect that I would meet Chihiro!" he blurted. "I know I am the biggest scum for not being able to admit my true feelings to him but I don''t want to lose him. I don''t want to lose anyone... again," he exined. "Then why can''t it be me instead?!"? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    "Huh?"


    Just a heads up:  is the only ce to read theplete version of this book for free. Don''t miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey!


    "We can''t make a bond together but I know you more than anyone else, Aki!" I uttered. Calling his name again felt likeunching a dagger at myself.


    "No, you don''t..." he said in a low voice. "Because if you did, you would never do this kind of cold and harsh treatment towards me."


    "What...?"


    [How long have we been seeing each other? Every time we fucked, Aki would tell me all of his hurts. So how can he tell me this to my face so lightly?!] I furiously debated inside my clouded mind.


    While I was drowning in these thoughts, my eyes was suddenly fixated on his tummy. Para naman akong sinaniban ng demonyo dahil bi akong nakaisip ng masamang bagay. I slowly raised my right arm and formed my right hand into a fist. Aki saw what wasing and used all of his strength to push me away.


    Isang mkas na kbog ang nanaig sa buong lugar. Saka kong napagtantong nauntog ang ulo ko sa pader dahil matagumpay akong itink ni Aki. When I raised my head to see him, he was still on the bed but was already sitting upright, his hands were wrapped around his tummy as if trying to protect it. He was heavily panting and sweating.


    "Aki..." I called out his name in a weak voice.


    "Fuck," he cursed while crying. "I shouldn''t havee here," he said while looking so worried and panicked at the same time.


    "Aki..." I managed to get up. Medyo hilo pa ako m sa pagkakauntog ko pero kaagad ito napalitan ng pagkabi nang may makita akong mga patak ng dugo m sa paanan ni Aki. "Aki...?" "Chihiro... I need to go home to Chihiro..." he uttered while still carefully wrapping his hands around his tummy and tried to walk.


    Kaagad ko naman siyang pinign at inlayan. "Aki, you''re bleeding!" I eximed while looking at him with horror.


    The reality dawned at him and his face went pale. "Chihiro..." he cried desperately like a child. "I need to see Chihiro. The baby... baby..."


    "Aki, stop walking. I will carry you out of here. Isusugod kita sa ospital," I told him and carefully carried him. He was reluctant but he was focused on saving his unborn child at this moment.


    All of my anger was flushed away and now I was afraid of the fact that Aki might lose his child because of me. I never intended for this to happen. Despite hating the Omega that he chose over me, I never wanted to involve their child in any of this. For a moment there, I thought of punching his tummy out of pure anger but I was not going to do it anyway.


    "Chihiro..." Aki called out while bawling.


    Maingat ko siyang isinakay sa kotse ko. Bago kami umalis, hinaplos ko ang mukha ni Aki bago sinabing, "I will call that Omega of yourster after I take you to the emergency. I promise, so please stop crying to lessen the stress," pagmamakaawa ko sa kanya.


    "...baby... I want to see Chihiro..." He was clearly ignoring me but I wouldn''t me him. This was all my fault after all. I wouldn''t be surprised if that Chihiro would kill me for real now.


    Mking kaso ang maaari kong harapin pagkatapos nghat ng ito pero w na akong pakim. Aki''s safety was all that mattered to me.

 SIDE STOR: 20TH EGO

    CHIHIRO


    ABALA ako sa pagliligpit ng mga damit nang bing tumunog ang cellphone ko. Nakapatong iyon sa mesa at matay ko iyong inabot at sinilip kung sino ang kasalukuyang tumatawag.


    "Unknown number... Prank call na naman siguro ''to," medyo inis kong kausap sa sarili habang hawak ang cellphone sa kaliwa kong kamay at ang kanang kamay ko naman ay may bitbit na T-shirt. Hindi ko sinagot ang unang tawag. ng sandali pa ay nag-ring ulit ang cellphone ko. "Na naman?!" remo ko nang parehong hindi ko klang numero ang tumatawag.


    "Sagutin mo, Hirhi. My mo importante iyan," bing singit ni Ma-chan nang mapadaan ito sa s. Napansin niya siguro na hindi ko sinagot ang tawag.


    "Pero, Ma-chan..." nag-angan kong saad.


    "Sige na," nakangiti niyang sulsol kaya napabuntonghininga namang ako sa pagkatalo.


    "Sige po. Sasagutin ko na kapag tumawag ulit," sabi ko nang. At hindi ako binigo. Tumawag ulit ang parehong numero sa ikatlong pagkakataon. Prantik akong napalingon kay Ma-chan na titig na titig sa akin. Bago ko sinagot ang tawag, huminga muna ako ng mlim. "H-hello?" Bati ko sa kung sino mang nasa kabng linya.


    "Is this Hanamichi Chihiro?" tanong ng isang boseslaki. Napakapamilyar ng boses niya. "Ako nga," pagkokompirma ko. "Sino s?"


    "I am telling you ahead, don''t hang up the phone after I tell you who I am," aniyalaki.


    "Huh? Bakit naman? Sino ka ba?!" nagsim na akong mainis sa kausap ko. Nang lingunin ko si Ma-chan, nagtataka din ito kagaya ko.


    "You need to listen to me, you fucktard!" mura nglaki. "This is Arisawa "


    "Bakit mo ako tinatawagan? Ayokong makausap ka, Arisawa-san. Sinabi ko nangyuan mo na kami ni Aki-san!" kaagad kong buska sa kanya.


    "I said listen to what I have to say!" sigaw niya sa kab na ikinatahimik ko. "Come to Nishiyama Maternity Hospital RIGHT NOW," mariing utos nito.


    "Huh? At bakit naman kita susun-"


    "Aki needs you so hurry up!" pamimilit ni Arisawa-san at natign ako nang banggitin niya ang pangn ni Aki.


    "Ano''ng nangyari kay Aki-san?!"


    "I can''t exin right now so just get your ass up here. Bye," pagkatapos n''yon ay pinatay na niya ang tawag.


    Nabitawan ko naman ang hawak kong cellphone at T-shirt. Nang tingin ko si Ma-chan, gt na gt din ito kagaya ko. Maagang nagpam si Aki-san sa akin kanina na may pupuntahanng ito saglit. Hindi niya sinabi kung saan pero pinayagan ko siya para naman makbas din siya ng bahay paminsan-minsan. Kung m kong na may mangyayaring masama, sana ay sinamahan ko nang siya.


    "Hirhi..." Tinangka ni Ma-chan na pakalmahin ako.


    "Ma-chan, aalis po muna ako," kalmado kong turan ngunit salungat ang sinasabi ng mukha ko, nababalot ito ngbis na takot at pangamba.


    "Sige, anak. Kami na ni Hiromi ang bah sa pagd ng mga gamit," aniya at nagmadali siyang pumanhik sa kuwarto n ni Tou-chan.


    Ako naman ay nagbihisng saglit at pagkatapos ay dali-dali na akong umalis ng bahay at hindi ko na nagawang magpam nang maayos.


    ?


    .


    Nagawa kong marating ang Nishiyama Maternity Hospital. Nagmamadaling pinuntahan ko ang lobby at prantik na tinanong ang nakatokang nurse, "Excuse me, miss, may nagngangng Izumi Aki po ba ang naka-admit dito? Maaari ko po bang makuha ang kanyang room number?"


    "Kaano-ano po kayo ng pasyente, sir?" magng na tanong ng babaeng nurse habang hinanap ang nasabi kong pangn.


    "Ako ang ama ng dinad niya." Iyonng ang tanging naisip kong isagot sa mga sandaling iyon.


    "Izumi Aki. Ito po, sir?" pagkokompirma niya at pinakita sa ''kin ang monitor at nakompirma kong si Aki-san nga iyon. Tumango ako bng sagot at saka niya binigay ang room number sa ''kin. "Room 206 po, sir." "Maraming smat," pagkatapos n''yon ay kumaripas na ako ng takbo.


    Habang papunta ako sa room kung saan naka-admit si Aki-san ngayon ay nanumbalik sa akin ang unang pagkakataon na na-ospital siya. W din ako noong mangyari iyon at kahit ngayon, w rin ako sa tabi niya kung kan na kangan niya ako.


    Nahanap ko ang Room 206. Napatigil ako sa mismong harap ng pinto. Napatitig ako dito ng ng sandali habang hinihingal nang husto. Napunta ang mata ko sa tokador at akmang hahawakan ko na sana iyon upang buksan ang pinto pero natigil ang kamay ko nang makitang nakaawang ng kaunti ang pinto.


    "Aki-san..." mahina kong sambit at maingat na tink pabukas ang pinto.


    Bumungad sa akin ang isang Aki-san na wng my. May nakakabit na IV sa kaliwa niyang kamay. Nanlumo ako sa nasaksihan at muntik akong mapaluhod sa sobrang pagsisisi ngunit mabilis na naagaw ang atensiyon ko nglaking nakaupo sa paanan ni Aki-san.


    [Arisawa-san...?]


    Marahil ay napansin niya ang pagdating ko at dali-dali siyang napatayo. "You''re here. I''ve been trying to-" Hindi siya natapos sa pagsasalita dahil sinugod ko siya at marahas siyang itink sa pader. Napaungol sa sakit si Arisawa-san. "Ano''ng ginawa mo kay Aki-san?! Bakit mo siya kasama?!" nangangiti sa galit kong tanong habang nakatingin ng masama salaking dahan-dahang nasasakal sa braso ko na ginamit ko upang idiin siya sa pader.


    "Let go of me... so I can exin everything!" Hirap itong magsalita. Kahit na ayaw ko siyang pagbigyan ay ginawa ko nang. Napaubo si Arisawa-san. "Why are you ridiculously strong?" At nakuha pa niyang magbiro sa mga oras na ito? "Magsalita ka! Bakit isinugod si Aki-san dito?! Ang baby? Ano''ng nangyari sa anak namin?!" sunud-sunod kong tanong.


    Inayos muna ni Arisawa-san ang sarili bago ito sumagot, "He had a bleeding earlier. The blood loss was pretty severe but-!" Naputol na naman siya sa pagsasalita dahil muli ko na naman siyang itink sa pader na may kasamang sakal. "Ikaw ba ang dahn?!"


    "Hanamichi... let me finish-"


    "IKAW BA ANG DAHILAN?!" pag-uulit ko, bakas sa mukha ko ang determinasyon na handa akong patayin siya ngayon din kapag napatunayan kong may kinman nga siya sahat.


    Parang nag-ngan si Arisawa-san sumagot pero napilitan din ito, "Oo."


    Ang kasunod na nangyari ay ang pagbagsak si Arisawa-san sa sahig. D ng sobrang galit ay pinagsusuntok ko siya. W na akong pakim kung ano ang mangyari sa ''kin. Dapat ko nang patayin ang wng hiyang ito.


    Sinubukang kumaw ni Arisawa-san pero hagupit ng mlakas kong suntok ang tanging natanggap nito sa bawat pagpg niya. Hindi ko na namyang napadugo ko na p ang ilong niya. Akmang susuntukin ko na sana siya sa pagitan ng kanyang mga mata nang...


    "...hiro..." Mahina iyon ngunit mabilis kong narinig ang kanyang boses at awtomatiko akong natigil.


    "Aki-san!" Sabik kong wika at nagmadali akong tumayo upang puntahan siya. "Aki-san!" Napaiyak ako kasabay ng paghawak ko sa kanan niyang kamay.


    "Chi...hiro..." muli niyang sambit at naluha din siya nang makita ako.


    "Patawad, Aki-san. Patawad. Lagi nang akong w sa tabi mo sa oras na kangan mo ako,"bis ang pagsisisi kong turan.


    Pinisil ni Aki-san ang kamay ko at tahimik siyang napaluha. "Chihiro... the baby...? Where...?" Putol-putol nitong tanong.


    "Eh?" Hindi ko pa m ang kasalukuyang kgayan ni Aki-san at ng baby namin m noong dumating ako dahil sinugod ko kaagad si Arisawa-san sa sobrang galit. "Aki-san..."


    "Is our baby safe?" tanong niya sa napakahinang boses at awtomatikong napunta ang tingin ko sa tiyan niya.


    May nakatakip na makapal na kumot at dahil hindi pa kkihan ang tiyan ni Aki-san ay mahirap sabihin kung ligtas nga ba ang baby namin o... pero kahit na ganoon ay nkasan ko pa rin ang loob ko. Akmang aalisin ko sana nang bahagya ang kumot nang magsalita si Arisawa-san.


    "Your baby''s safe. That was what I wanted to say," aniya habang kinakapa ang leeg niyang nagkapasa na naman dahil sa higpit ng pagkakasakal ko sa kanya kanina. "And now that I''ve rified everything, it''s time for me to leave." "Hindi kita basta-basta paalisin nang ng gano''n-gano''n. Pagbabayarin pa kita sa ginawa mo kay Aki-san!" banta ko kay Arisawa-san.


    Pagak naman siyang napatawa. "There''s no need. I''m turning myself in. In fact, the police are already outside this very room right now, waiting for me toe out."


    "What? Are you even serious?" hindi makapaniwng tanong ni Aki-san dito.


    Ngumiti naman si Arisawa-san. "Since when have I made a sick joke, Aki?" At pagkatapos n''yon ay nilisan niya ang kuwarto. Pagkabukas niya ng pinto ay may mga pulis nga na nakaabang sabas. Pinosasan siya ng mga ito at nanatiling kalmado si Arisawa-san hanggang s ay makalisan.


    Nang tuluyan na siyang maw sa paningin namin ni Aki-san ay minabuti kong kamustahin na ang kgayan ng minamahal ko. "W bang masakit sa ''yo, Aki-san?"


    "W naman," pagsisiguro ni Aki-san at humigpit ang pagkakapisil niya sa kamay ko. "Masaya ako na nandito ka na."


    "Aki-san..." Hindi ko na napign ang sarili ko at sinin ko siya ng isang masuyong halik. Malugod niyang tinugunan ang halik ko. Pagkatapos ng ng segundo ay pareho naming hinabol ang aming mga hininga.


    "Sorry for lying to you again," pagpapaumanhin niya na ang tinutukoy ay ang hindi niya pagsabi sa totoo na makikipagkita p siya kay Arisawa-san. "I thought I should be the one to handle it because we were both Alphas and Arisawa might use his Alpha pheromones against you. I didn''t think he would actually try to hurt me like that."


    "Hindi ba nagkapasa ang tiyan mo, Aki-san?" lang-la kong tanong sabay himas sa tiyan niya.


    "No, no. Kaya ako nag-bleeding ay dahil sa excessive stress at shock na naranasan ko. When I saw him form his hand into a fist at akmang susuntukin ang tiyan ko, nangko ang paningin ko. I thought it was the end of everything. I thought I was going to lose the baby."


    "Pero mkas ang kapit ng baby, Aki-san. Kasingtapang mo yata siya. He he," pabiro ko pang turan at natawa si Aki-san.


    "I would prefer if the baby turns out to be like you," aniya. "I am a coward, Chihiro. I can''t face my problems without involving other people. I am such a failure," nanlulumo niyang dagdag.


    "Hindi totoo ''yan, Aki-san," depensa ko. "Kung failure ka dapat matagal mo nang ginawan ng paraan na makyo sa akin o gawan ng paraan na hindi tuluyang mabuo ang baby kung tgang ayaw mong magdng-tao. Kahit hindi ka sanay, sinubukan mong makisama sa pamilya ko. Kahit ayaw sa ''yo ni Tou-chan, hindi ka sumuko. Pinatunayan mo ang sarili mo. Hinarap mo ako sa mga magng mo. Ipinaban mo ako kay Arisawa-san. Ako ang pinili mo, Aki-san. Sapat na proweba na iyon sa akin para masabi kong karapat-dapat kang mahalin."


    "Chihiro..." Napahikbi si Aki-san pagkatapos. Mmbing kong hinaplos ang kanyang noo bago ito hinalikan.

    "Masaya ako na ligtas ka at ang baby," sabi ko sa kanya at ng sandali pa ay bumukas ulit ang pinto.


    "Excuse me," paunang bati ng isanglaki pagkapasok nito. Base sa suot nito, mukhang siya ang doktor na tumingin kay Aki-san.


    "Magandang araw po, Doc," magng kong bati salaki at pormal siyang nangiti sa akin.


    "Magandang araw din. Ikaw ba ang asawa ng pasyente?" Agaran niyang tanong.


    "Eh? Ah..."


    "Partner po, Doc." Si Aki-san ang sumalo sa akin kasabay ng paghawak niya sa kamay ko at pinisil iyon.


    "Okay," sang-ayon ng doktor bago nadako ang tingin niya sa dng result ng pagkaka-admit ni Aki-san. "Before everything else, I am Dr. Inoki. How are you feeling, Izumi-san?" pangungumusta niya rito. "Ayosng naman po," tipid na sagot ni Aki-san.


    "W bang masakit sa ''yo? You lost a lot of blood earlier," ani doktor.


    "I feel lethargic but aside from that, okay naman. W ring masakit sa tiyan ko."


    "Good. Kangan mo muna ng further monitoring at IV fluids to ensure your health bago kita i-release. Nagdagdag na rin ako ng vitamin prescription sa dapat mong inuming mga gamot. If I''m not mistaken, hindi ka pa nagpapatingin sa isang OB?"


    Umiling si Aki-san. "Hindi pa po."


    "I rmend seeing one after you regain your health, then," payo niya.


    "I will," sang-ayon naman ni Aki-san.


    "Kumusta naman po ang baby, Doc?" bi kong singit. Kanina pa ako atat mman kung ano ang kondisyon ng anak namin.


    "Oh. Rest assured. The babies are safe," nakangiti niyang wika. Nakahinga naman kaming pareho ni Aki-san ng maluwag.Original from N?velDrama.Org.


    "Wait. Did you say babies?" pagkaro ni Aki-san.


    "Eh?" Pati ako ay nagt sa itinanong niya at prantik na napalingon sa doktor na sobrangpad ng ngiti.


    "Yes. Apparently, you are expecting twins. Congrattions!"


    "WHAT?!" blas ni Aki-san at halos matanggal ang nakakabit na IV sa kanya dahil bi itong napabangon. "...the fuck?! Why did you give me twins, Chihiro?!" inis niyang buska sa akin sabay binatukan ako. "Eh?! Aki-san, bakit ako ang sinisisi mo?!"


    "I don''t know! Shit! Twins..." Nag-iwas siya ng tingin habang nag-blush.


    Napatitig naman ako sa tiyan niya at nangiti. "Kaya naman ang init-init ng ulo ni Aki-san dahil dadwa kayong pasaway. He he!"


    "Shut up, you idiot!" Binatukan ulit ako ni Aki-san.


    ng sandali pa ay sabay nang kaming natawa. Sino ba naman ang mag-aakng magkakaroon p kami kaagad ng kambal? Doble ang natanggap kong biyaya at napakasaya ko.

 SIDE STORY: 21ST EGO

    AKI


    PAGKATAPOS mman ng mga magng ni Chihiro na kambal ang magiging anak namin ay hindi na s nakapagpigil at namili kaagad s ng mga damit pambata. We didn''t even know the genders of the babies and yet they insisted on preparing ahead. And Chihiro and I couldn''t stop them from being too excited.


    "Aki-san, tingnan mo itong ternong damit na nabili ko kahapon. Ang cute, ''di ba?" pagmamki ni Chidori-san sa isang damit na ky baby blue.


    "Mas maganda itong nabili ko," pagyayabang naman ni Hiromi-san sabay pinakita ang terno na may army design.


    "Hiromi, dapat light colorsng kapag baby pa. Saka na ang ganyan kapag medyo mki na ang mga apo natin," sita ni Chidori-san sa asawa.


    "Huh? Ano namang masama kung ganito?" angal ni Hiromi-san at nagsim sng magtalo.


    "Ma-chan, Tou-chan... tama na po iyan," natatawang saway ni Chihiro sa mga magng.


    "Pero, Hirhi, ang pangit ng taste ng ama mo," giit ni Chidori-san.


    "At sobrang simple naman ng sa ''yo!" katuwiran naman ni Hiromi-san.


    Tinapunan naman ni siya ni Chidori-san ng matalim na tingin. "May sinabi ka, honey?"


    Awtomatiko namang lumambot ang aura ni Hiromi-san at kaagad itong nagpakumbaba. "Nagbibirong ako, honey."


    Napabuntonghininga namang si Chihiro sa pagkadismaya. Tinabihan n''ya akong umupo bago masuyong hinimas ang tiyan ko. "Aki-san, mukhang lumulusog na ang mga bata kasi lumaki na ang tiyan mo sim noong nagpa-monthly check-up ka na at uminom ng karagdagang vitamins."


    "Mukha nga," sang-ayon ko naman. Sa totoong, para nang sumisikip ang hininga ko minsan habang lumki ang tiyan ko. Nagsisim na ring gumw ang kambal m sa loob. Pareho sng makulit.


    Masn pa rin ang pagbubuntis ko d na rin ng edad ko. Nakakadismaya pero ang isang mking dahn tga ay isa akong Alpha at hindi rin ganoon ka-dominant ang Alpha traits ko kaya naman hirap na hirap ako. Laking pasasmat ko nang tga at may mga nag-aaruga sa ''kin.


    Chihiro quit his job at the construction site. In order for him to take care of me while still making a living, he decided to stop pursuing college and instead, his dad offered him a new job nearby. Natanggap siya sa isang local restaurant and when the owner knew that he was expecting twins, kada uwi n''ya ay may d pgi itong pagkain m sa restaurant mismo. The owner would cook the food exclusively for me because they want me to have a healthy body when I give birth soon. It''s really generous of them at nahihiya na rin minsan si Chihiro so topensate for his owner''s kindness, pinagbubutihan n''yalo sa trabaho.


    "Ah, Aki-san, gusto mo bang sumama ngayon sa restaurant?" bing tanong sa akin ni Chihiro.


    "Huh? Why?" I asked in confusion.


    "Nala kong may special menu s ngayong araw at minsanng ito. Gusto kong ipatikim sa ''yo ang special menu, Aki-san," aniya.


    "Well... If you want to then I''m fine with it. Isama mo na rin mga magng mo."


    Tumango naman siya. "Okay!"


    .


    And so, we''ve arrived at Chihiro''s work ce.


    This is my first time seeing him on action on a restaurant. This ce was designed to be more like that of a family restaurant and aimed to bring people the luxury of eating good food while enjoying thepany of their loved ones. Chihiro is the family oriented type of person so quickly got fond of the idea of bringing joy to other people by serving them food. Napaka-simple minded n''yang tao tga but that''s what makes him strongly attractive.


    "Aki-san, maupo muna kayo dito. Ipapam ko muna kay boss na nandito kayo para mai-serve ko sa inyo ang special menu," aniya Chihiro habang sabik na nakangiti.


    "Sige, anak. Maghihintay kami," sang-ayon ayon ni Hiromi-san sa anak at pagkatapos ay pumunta na si Chihiro sa kusina.


    M dito sa kinauupuan naming tatlo, sinilip kami ng may-ari nitong restaurant. Isa siyang matandanglaki. May pagkapandak ito kaya naman kapag kausap n''ya si Chihiro ay nakating ito nang husto. Ngumiti ito sa aming tatlo at kinawayan kami bng pagtanggap n''ya sa amin. Saglit sng nag-usap ni Chihiro at nakangiting tumangong ang matanda hanggang sa magsim na sng magtrabaho sa kusina.


    While waiting for our food, naisipan kong ituon ang atensiyon ko sa mga staff nitong restaurant. What I''ve noticed was that they all had simrities - they seemed like people who arefortable to talk to. Most of them are in looking too but they surely had this gentle auras around them. I don''t know if the owner was an Alpha but if he really was and still epted Chihiro who''s an Omega then he must be the not the scum type of Alpha.


    Good-natured Alphas are incredibly rare. Because of our high rank in society, most of us tend to see everyone else around us as low beings. That was how most Alphas were brought upon by parents who were either strict or just in Alpha bastards themselves. Alphas who have at least an Omega parent are likely to turn out goodpared to others but there is still the risk of superiority.


    "Aki-san, ayosng ba sa ''yo kunglabasng muna kami saglit?" bing pam ni Chidori-san sa akin na medyo nahiya pa.


    "Huh? Sure. It''s fine," pagpapahintulot ko.


    "We''re sorry to do this but I saw this souvenir shop across the street. Iche-checkng sana namin," pagpapaliwanag ni Hiromi-san.


    Awtomatiko akong napatingin sa maliit na building sa kabng babagi nitong restaurant - at meron ngang shop. Hindi siya ganoon kaagaw-pansin pero marami ang pumupunta rito.


    "It''s fine, really," pagsisiguro ko at tahimik sng umalis at naiwan akong mag-isa sa table namin.


    Pinasadahan ako ni Chihiro ng mabilisang silip para tingnan kung okayng ako pero bumakas sa mukha n''ya ang pag-ala nang makitang mag-isang ako. Kinawayan ko siya at sinenyasan na nasa kabng ang mga magng n''ya upang hindi na ito maistorbo sa kanyang ginagawa. Bumalik din si Chihiro sa kanyang trabaho nang masigurong okayng ako.


    "He''s really cute when he worries over me like that," natatawa kong kausap sa sarili. Just when I was about to avert my eyes towards the scenery outside ay maylaking naupo sa kabng side ng table kung saan ako kasalukuyang nakapuwesto.


    Naki ang mga mata ko sa pagtataka. m naman siguro n''yang may nagmamay-ari na nitong table pero bakit siya umupo nang wng pam? Napating ako sa naturanglaki atlong naki ang mga mata ko nang mamukhaan ko siya.


    "Oh, by any chance, you are not alone?" he casually asked, totally ignoring the fact that he didn''t ask for permission before crashing into my space.


    "Shouldn''t you have asked that bago ka umupo sa tapat ko?" sarkastiko kong baling sa kanya. He just ruined my mood, to be honest.


    Inayos nglaki ang suot nitong smin bago siya nagsalita, "My bad. Am I disturbing you?"


    [Ano''ng seng tanong ''yan?!] Sigaw ko sa aking isipan.


    Sasagot na sana ako nang magsalita siyang muli, "Do I know you?"


    Mabilis namang nagbago ang mood ko at tinitigan ko siyang maigi. "I could ask the same to you," pabng kong tugon.


    He chuckled and adjusted his sses. "Correct me if I''m wrong but you are Izumi Aki, right?" he guessed though his face told me that he was certain that he got the right person. Tumalim naman ang tingin ko salaki bago ako ngumisi. "If it isn''t Shimada Kazunari."


    The man sitting across chuckled in total amusement. "Still angsty, as always. Kan kaya darating ang araw na hindi mo ako titingnan na para bang gigil na gigil kang patayin ako?" he sarcastically asked. "You''re smirking at me but your facial expression is sending me a killing intent."


    "I despise everyone who hurt and criticized Khan," I quickly retorted. This man right here was no doubt Khan''s younger Alpha brother, Kazunari. I don''t know much about him but I do know that he did nothing when Khan was kicked out from their house and when he suffered for 14 years, I''ve never seen this guy show care at all. They had no fucking idea how broken their brother was!

    "I see," he said. "I won''t argue with you on that but you can stop hating me now, you know?"


    "Why? Nagpakita ka na ba kay Khan at humingi ng tawad? Arrogant Alphas like you has their ego on a pedestal. You will never bow down to defeat."


    "Aren''t we the same?" he eximed before smirking.


    "Don''t lump me in with you," gigil kong saad.


    Napunta naman ang tingin n''ya sa ibabang bahagi ng katawan ko. After my health started to improve, kahit ano''ng suot ko na ng maluluwag na damit ay hindi ko na maitago ang lumulubo kong tiyan. It''s not that I hated it or ashamed of it. It kept getting too much attention.


    "Is your Omega with you?" pag-iiba ni Kazunari ng usapan.


    "What?" I frowned.


    [Why is he suddenly bringing up Chihiro? And wait! How did he know that I was with an Omega?!] Naguguluhan kong wari sa isipan.


    "You... How...?"


    "Oh, did I mistake you for another ''Izumi Aki''?" he said. "I was pretty sure that the Omega guy told me that he was madly in love with an ''Izumi Aki''." "Huh? Make yourself clear. Damn it!" Inis kong buska sa kanya.


    "I am though?" pilosopo nitong sagot. "Did you mark your Omegately?" Muli ay iniba na naman nito ang usapan. May sayad yata sa utak itong kausap ko.? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    "Mark? What do you mean?" Naguguluhan kong baling.


    "You know, temporary mark?" he rified. "We Alphas do have that ability. So... how did your temporary mark go?"


    "I have no fucking idea what you''re bbering about," inis kong turan.


    "Hmm... So you weren''t really aware of it, huh?" mangha n''yang blas.


    "Just go away! Ang gulo mong kausap!" Pagtataboy ko rito pero hindi manng n''ya ininda ang iritasiyon ko.


    "What''s holding you back from biting your Omega''s neck? You went as far as marking him temporarily but won''t bite his nape." I guess this guy has a loose screw in his head. Kanina ko pa siyang pinapaalis pero putak pa rin ito nang putak. "Stop talking and leave. Don''t butt into people''s business when they''re not asking you to," I told him.


    "You''re afraid of your feelings, aren''t you?" he continued without a care about how annoyed I was. "You really can''t read the mood, can you?" I was starting to lose my patience towards this psycho. "Am I invading your privacy?"


    [You''re asking that now?!] I eximed in my mind. What a total jerk!


    Just a heads up:  is the only ce to read theplete version of this book for free. Don''t miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey!


    "Whatever nonsense you''re talking about, w ka pa ring karapatang manghimasok sa buhay ko. I don''t like talking to you so get lost."


    "You will only make things worst if you don''t be mates with your Omega. You almost lost him, didn''t you?" When does he intend to stop?!


    "How-?"


    "So, it was the right ''Izumi Aki'' after all, huh?" he said in a puzzling way. Kanina pa akong pinagmumukhang tanga nglaking ito. "If I got the right ''Omega'' that I was talking about earlier then I must say that I was his boss back at the construction site that he used to work for," he dered.


    "What...?" hindi makapaniw kong ani.


    [So the Alpha that rescued Chihiro when he went into heat was this asshole? What a ridiculous coincidence,] I thought.


    "Forget it," paglilihis n''ya ng paksa at muling inayos ang suot n''yang smin. "It was fancy meeting you here, Izumi Aki."


    "Oh? Howe I don''t feel the same?" I sarcastically responded with a monotonous tone.


    Natawa si Kazunari bago tumayo pero may pahabol pa ito bago tuluyang umalis. "Think about what I''ve said. You can''t keep that Omega around forever. You know yourself that you have to let him go if you can''t fulfill his wishes." ¡°Bakit hindi mo muna atupagin ang sarili mong problema bago ka magbigay ng payo sa iba?" Inis kong asik sa kanya.


    He just scoffed. "I will talk to my brother when the right timees. I heard he has a mate now and a son. That is enough to make me feel at ease." Kung kanina ay mukha itong tanga, sa mga sandaling ito ay nakikita ko sa mukha n''ya ang sinsiredad at pagiging kampante na nasa mabuting kgayan na ang nakakatanda n''yang kapatid.


    Well, at least he cared a little for Khan but he was still an Alpha at heart. He would always have that ego within him that Alphas should not show weaknesses no matter how hard things got.


    Supposedly, an Alpha''s existence was for the purpose of protecting Omegas in need but because of this huge difference between the two distinct existences, Alphas forgot that what they made them this strong-willed was because of their desire to protect Omegas.


    Pagkatapos n''yon ay umalis na si Kazunari. Saktong bumalik na rin sina Hiromi-san at Chidori-san galing sa souvenir shop. Hindi ko m kung napansin ni Chihiro ang naging usapan namin ng former boss n''ya pero tatanungin ko nang siya mamaya tungkol dito. I didn''t want today to be ruined. He took the effort of bringing us all the way here parang ipatikim ang masasarap na pagkain nitong restaurant. The least I could do was set aside unnecessary things and enjoy the moment.


    And besides, hindi nang katawan kong ang kangan kong ingatan. I am feeding two more extra mouths and they are getting more and more stronger by each passing day. Chihiro must be really proud and anxious, at the same time. The best way to match his eagerness at nourishing our babies was to protect myself from stress and be stronger myself for Chihiro''s sake and for our babies'' sakes.


    "Aki-san, may binigay si Teruma-san na special dessert para sa ''yo!" Masayang saad ni Chihiro pagkabalik n''ya sa table namin. May d na itong mga pagkain at sabik n''yang npag sa mesa ang mga iyon.


    "Teruma-san? Is that your boss'' name?" I asked.


    Tumango siya. "Oo! Sinabi ko sa kanya ang magandang balita na magkakaroon tayo ng kambal kaya ayon!"


    [Ang daldal tga ni Chihiro kahit kan,] I thought to myself while massaging my temples.


    "Mukhang masarap ang mga ito, anak!" Kumikinang ang mga matang komento ni Chidori-san.


    We enjoyed the food that day. Chihiro was incredibly happy. I could see it in his eyes that he was contented.


    And starting tomorrow, I must free myself from all my doubts by facing all of my fears. Until then, I will finally decide whether to be mates with Chihiro or not. Whatever my decisions will be, I hope Chihiro epts it with a smile on his face. TO BE CONTINUED...
