These few days felt incredibly long for Fang Chen, and yet also very fast. After all, he was constantly attached to the man, either sleeping or making love, occasionally being fed nutrient solution or soup by Seth. But after this layer of gentleness, the man would still press him down on the dining table to continue.

He’s not human!!!

The little tangerine had been completely peeled, its flesh tasted over and over again.

Seth held him, unsatisfied, and buried his head in his body, sniffing. This person, from head to toe, was marked by him, covered in his scent. The young man had just fallen unconscious again, but even so, Seth was still buried inside him. He held him tightly, his tongue constantly licking Fang Chen’s gland, which was slightly red and swollen, covered with his teeth marks.

The last time he woke up, there was no one beside him. Fang Chen actually let out a sigh of relief. Being able to get off Seth must mean he was better, right? Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to be left alone.

A faint aroma of food drifted in through the crack of the door. Fang Chen hadn’t had a proper meal in days, and his stomach was already growling with hunger. He propped himself up, wanting to go down and see what delicious food Seth was making. But as soon as he exerted some force, every joint in his body ached as if it were broken.

Fang Chen wanted to cry. He had been fucked to the point of being a little cripple.

Fortunately, after a few minutes, Seth came upstairs. He pushed open the door and saw Fang Chen glaring at him with red eyes, and instantly felt a jolt of electricity run through his body.

So satisfying.

Seth took a few quick steps and pulled him into his arms. Fang Chen wanted to push and hit him, but he had no strength left. Not to mention, the man released his pheromones, and Fang Chen felt himself enveloped in a warm cocoon. He went even softer, as if boneless, nestling in the man’s arms.

Seth lowered his head and kissed his cheek, his ear. “I cooked seafood congee. Shall I carry you down to eat?”

Fang Chen hummed and nuzzled into the man’s embrace. The man’s lips curled up, and he simply scooped him up and walked downstairs.

Even though it wasn’t inside him anymore, Fang Chen still felt his lower abdomen was bloated, as if there was something in it. He remembered how Seth had wickedly tricked him into opening his reproductive cavity a few times, and anger flared up again. He lowered his head and bit down on the man’s neck.

Seth hissed as if he was in great pain, but his face was full of satisfaction. “A little harder, baby.”

Fang Chen thought resentfully, why wasn’t he a vampire? He’d bite right through the man’s neck.

Down in the dining room, Seth held Fang Chen and fed him the congee spoonful by spoonful. With the hot congee in his stomach, Fang Chen finally felt like he had come back to life. He yawned and suddenly remembered something. “Oh no! I don’t think I asked for leave.”

“I asked for you.” Seth’s tone was calm. He didn’t mention at all that he had personally called the editor-in-chief’s office, and after he stated his name, there was dead silence on the other end of the line. The man had impatiently stated his purpose, and the person on the other end had repeatedly said, “Okay, okay, okay.” They seemed to have said something else after that, but Seth had already hung up and turned back to his Omega for more “exercise.”

Fang Chen had just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the man ask casually, “Who was that person who brought you back that day?”

Huh? Fang Chen tried hard to recall and vaguely remembered, “He’s a new hire in our department, and also my junior from university.”

Seth twitched the corner of his mouth. “Wow, what a coincidence.” …He sounded so passive-aggressive.

Fang Chen looked up with amusement. “You’re not jealous, are you?”

The man expressionlessly lowered his head and kissed his mouth forcefully.

Fang Chen was kissed until he couldn’t breathe, his words becoming intermittent. “Don’t… overthink it, I didn’t… I’m still in the ‘marry first, love later’ phase.”

Hearing the last sentence, Seth chuckled, amused. He hooked his lips, lowered his head, and touched his nose to his. “Haven’t you fallen in love yet, baby?”

Fang Chen said irritably, “What time do I have to fall in love!” It was all spent doing it!

Seth happily picked him up. “You’ll fall in love after we do it two more times, baby.”

Huh???? Help! Is there an Omega Alliance to protect him!

Returning to work after half a month, Fang Chen himself felt a bit dazed. At home, his days and nights were reversed. He could finally come out and breathe some fresh air. Just as he sat down at his desk, his boss walked over with a smile. “Fang Chen, why are you in such a hurry to come back to work? You could have rested a few more days.”

Fang Chen didn’t know how Seth had requested the leave and just gave a vague response. After the boss left, the girl next to him came over and patted his shoulder, throwing him a few bags of snacks, saying they were to replenish his energy and blood.

Fang Chen: “…Do I look that weak?”

“Not really, but you’re marinated to the bone in Alpha pheromones.”

Fang Chen’s face reddened. Possessive Alphas were like that, like canines marking their territory, wishing they could mark their Omega from head to toe. He cursed Seth a few times in his head, but then a message came. It was from Seth, saying there was a cocktail party tonight and he wanted Fang Chen to accompany him.

Fang Chen replied immediately: “No.”

Seth’s text messages came one after another like bombs, each in a different style.

[Be good, come with me.]
[If you don’t come, I’ll cry.]
[Baby, please.]
[Why won’t you come with me? Am I some kind of savage without an Omega?!]

…

Fang Chen had a lot of work piled up and was busy all day. When it was time to get off work, Seth came to pick him up, saying he would take him home to change into formal wear.

Fang Chen crossed his arms and retorted, “Did I agree?”

Seth leaned over to kiss him. “I’m begging you.”

Fang Chen gave him a push. “Drive properly.”

In the end, he still went with Seth to some cocktail party. He had been to such occasions a few times before when he was with the Fang family, but he never liked them and later made excuses to avoid them.

The suit Seth had ordered for Fang Chen matched his own. The same silver-grey. On the man, it looked understated and luxurious; on Fang Chen, he looked like a beautiful little prince. Seth helped him change, buttoned his shirt, and finally pinned on a beautiful brooch.

“Let’s go, baby. There’s a good show to watch today.”

Fang Chen was stunned when he heard this and quickly asked, “Is something happening tonight?”

Seth deliberately didn’t tell him, taking his hand. “You’ll know when we get there.”

There were many people at the party. Some Fang Chen had seen before, but most were unfamiliar faces. The Fang family’s status was limited, and they couldn’t access the very top circles.

As Seth led Fang Chen in, people proactively came over to greet them and offer toasts. Just as Fang Chen politely raised his glass, the man snatched it away. Seth clinked glasses, took a sip, exchanged a few light words, and then led Fang Chen further inside. After this happened a few times, everyone understood. Seth doted on this Omega immensely, not even willing to let him have a sip of wine. After that, no one was clueless enough to come over and propose a toast.

After taking Fang Chen to eat a couple of small cakes, a commotion was suddenly heard not far away. Fang Chen looked up curiously and froze. The person who had arrived was Father Fang. He rushed in angrily, with a few security guards trying to drag him out, but the man seemed to have gone mad, rushing in regardless.

Seth raised his hand slightly, and the security guards nearby understood and stopped trying to block him. Father Fang strode over, his entire face flushed red. “That Xinhai project, you deliberately set me up, didn’t you? How can you be so vicious!”

Seth smiled faintly. “You were greedy yourself, trying to bite off more than you can chew. Now you’re blaming others.”

Father Fang was furious. “You!” His gaze shifted and quickly landed on Fang Chen beside him, pointing at him. “No matter what, we’re still family. Is it appropriate for you to do this?”

Seth sneered. “Don’t be disgusting. You are you, and Fang Chen is Fang Chen. Besides, didn’t you already publish a statement saying Fang Chen wasn’t your son? You even kicked him out of the house.”

At the mention of the last sentence, Seth couldn’t suppress his anger. At the time, he had thought the person was safe and sound at the Fang residence, not expecting so many things to have happened, causing Fang Chen to suffer so much.

He walked towards Father Fang step by step, his voice grim. “However you bullied Fang Chen back then, you’ll pay me back in the same way now.”

Father Fang gritted his teeth. “I am his father!”

Seth scoffed. “A person who sells his son, you still have the nerve to call yourself a father?” If Fang Chen hadn’t been there, Seth would have already thrown a punch. He couldn’t bear to think, if he hadn’t come back at that time, who else would Fang Chen have been sold to?

Seemingly sensing the violent emotions in the man’s heart, Fang Chen quickly went over and tugged on Seth’s arm, whispering, “Don’t fight.”

Seth turned to look at Fang Chen and smiled. “My fists won’t get dirty in a place like this.” He snapped his fingers, and someone naturally came over to take Father Fang away.

As the curses faded behind them, Seth wrapped an arm around Fang Chen, turning him around and half-embracing him. He asked in a low voice, “Do you want to eat anything else?”

Fang Chen shook his head and said in a low voice, “So you asked me to come here because of him?”

“Xinhai Technology’s stock crashed this morning. He invested his entire fortune in it, so he must be going crazy. He was bound to come to this party to find me.” Seth turned to look at Fang Chen. “Do you think I’m too cruel? After all, he is your father.”

Fang Chen shook his head, but his expression was still full of regret. “Why didn’t you tell me in advance?”

Seth: “?”

“I didn’t bring a camera in. Otherwise, I could have sold this footage to my colleagues in the finance department and made a huge sum of money.”

Seth: “…” He laughed. “You’re very humorous.”

Even though Fang Chen didn’t bring a camera in, the news of the Fang family’s impending bankruptcy spread the next day. Fang Chen didn’t really care much. To be precise, everything about the Fang family had nothing to do with him anymore. He now had his own new life to live. With Seth.

He realized something was wrong with his body because his heat period, which was supposed to be within a certain timeframe, was late. When Fang Chen went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor told him in a calm tone, “Due to hormonal issues during pregnancy, the heat period is very likely to be postponed. This is also very normal.”

Hearing “normal,” Fang Chen breathed a sigh of relief. It’s good that there’s nothing wrong. He was about to thank the doctor and leave when he suddenly realized something was off. He plopped back down and his eyes widened. “Pregnant? Who? Me?”

The doctor, who was in his sixties, pushed up his glasses and looked at him kindly. “Or should it be me?”

“…”

Fang Chen went home with the report in a daze. Seth hadn’t come back yet. Fang Chen hesitated for a moment, then took a picture of the report and sent it to the man.

In less than a minute, Seth’s call came in, his voice seeming to tremble. “Baby, baby…”

At first, Fang Chen was a little apprehensive, but hearing Seth’s voice, he suddenly relaxed and even smiled. “What are you doing? Why are you more nervous than me?” Fang Chen subconsciously touched his lower abdomen. “Aren’t you coming home yet? The baby and I are waiting for you at home.”

Seth felt as if his throat was blocked, choked with emotion. He had practically run out of his office, clutching his phone. “Coming. Baby, wait for me.”

Fang Chen was pregnant, but he himself didn’t feel much. The most nervous one was probably Seth. He improved his already perfect cooking skills by another level, learning many dishes suitable for pregnant Omegas. He didn’t go to the boxing gym as much, spending most of his time with Fang Chen.

But soon, the first trouble of pregnancy arrived. The heat period, which had been delayed due to hormones, arrived. At this time, the baby was just under three months old, a time when strenuous activities were forbidden.

The room was filled with the scent of their pheromones. The smell of fire was noticeably stronger. Enveloped by the Alpha’s pheromones, Fang Chen felt a little better, but his eyes were still red, and he kept rubbing against Seth’s embrace. He was covered in sweat, as if he had just been pulled out of water. Seth held him tightly, constantly lowering his head to kiss him. “Baby.”

Fang Chen cried, proactively exposing the gland on his neck for Seth to bite. The man didn’t hesitate to lean over, his sharp teeth piercing the skin, and pheromones poured in. Fang Chen tilted his head back slightly, his eyes looking a bit empty from the excessive stimulation. He opened his mouth slightly, as if trying hard to breathe.

But it wasn’t enough. This was far from enough. He cried while pressing against Seth’s chest, but Seth was also having a hard time and could only hold Fang Chen.

Fang Chen cried, burying his face in his chest, his tears soaking through the clothes. The man’s heart ached terribly. He lowered his head to kiss Fang Chen’s face, kissing away his tears, coaxing him, “Baby, don’t cry.”

Seth’s hands had thin calluses from years of boxing. Usually, when he touched Fang Chen’s face, Fang Chen would find it itchy, but at this moment, the advantage became apparent. Fang Chen wrapped his arms around the man’s neck, his sweaty face pressed against him. The two of them looked quite miserable.

Fortunately, due to hormonal issues, the heat period didn’t last too long, passing in just three days. These three days were extremely difficult for both of them. After it was over, they felt as if they had seen the light of day again.

After three months, Seth was finally unbanned. He took Fang Chen for a prenatal check-up in the morning. After receiving a satisfactory answer, he excitedly took Fang Chen home, secretly planning a candlelight dinner for the evening, and then…

As a result, halfway through the drive, Fang Chen suddenly spoke up, saying he wanted to get a puppy.

Seth was stunned. “No way, baby. You’re pregnant right now. It’s not good for your health.”

A pregnant Omega’s emotions are always volatile. Fang Chen didn’t speak again, just rested his head against the car window and cried silently.

At first, when he didn’t hear Fang Chen continue, Seth breathed a sigh of relief. But when he turned his head, he saw the Omega crying with red eyes, biting his lip and shedding silent tears. He almost stepped on the gas instead of the brake.

Without a second word, Seth immediately turned the car around. Buy it! Buy a whole bunch!

At the pet store, Fang Chen cheered up again and chose a small fluffball that was fighting with a Samoyed for food. To let the Samoyed have some food, Fang Chen resolutely decided to take the little fluffball home. He named it Coco.

Next, the two went to buy dog toys, dog clothes, and dog treats. After all the fuss, it was already evening when they got home. Seth was afraid of letting Fang Chen go hungry, so he changed his clothes and rushed into the kitchen. There was no time to prepare a candlelight dinner. Seth simply cooked some noodles, brought them to the dining table for Fang Chen to eat, and then quickly picked up the approaching Coco to feed him in another room.

After eating his fill, Fang Chen quickly became sleepy. After washing up by himself, he tucked himself directly into bed.

After finally getting Coco settled, Seth came out to find the dining table empty. Where was his wife? Where was his big, beautiful wife?

Seth hurried back to the bedroom and saw his baby sleeping soundly under the covers. His heart melted. He sighed in relief, quickly took a shower, and got into bed as well. It had been over three months, and Seth was getting restless. He moved a little closer, placing his hand on Fang Chen’s waist. But as soon as he touched him, Fang Chen impatiently turned over. “Don’t move, I’m sleeping.”

Seth, who had been looking forward to it all day: …

---

As the months went by, Fang Chen’s belly grew larger. Seth held him, wrapping his arms around him from the front, looked in the mirror, and lowered his head to kiss Fang Chen’s earlobe. “Baby is getting more and more beautiful.”

Throughout the pregnancy, he praised Fang Chen like this, never letting him feel insecure for a moment.

Fang Chen lowered his head slightly, as if finding it difficult to speak. “Seth, my shirt is wet.”

Seth didn’t react at first, stunned for a moment. How could his shirt be wet? He looked down again. The white, loose-fitting short-sleeved shirt was indeed damp in one spot.

Seth’s mind went “buzz.” He froze for a few seconds, his Adam’s apple bobbed as he swallowed. He asked in a hoarse voice, “When did this start? Why didn’t you tell me?”

Fang Chen was a little embarrassed. “Just these past two days.” He was too embarrassed to say it at the time. Because of the pregnancy, because of the hormones, his body was undergoing various changes, which made it difficult for him to talk about.

Seth turned him around and stared at him deeply. “Don’t think like that, baby. I love everything about you, from beginning to end.”

“In my eyes, you are always the most beautiful and gorgeous. You are pregnant, and I will only cherish you more, so if there are any changes in your body, you must tell me immediately, okay? Don’t worry about anything. No matter when, I will always be behind you.”

Fang Chen’s nose tingled, and he nodded.

Seth smiled. “I’m a little thirsty after saying so much. Can I have a sip?”

“…”

Fang Chen expressionlessly punched Seth in the face. The North American boxing champion, when hit by his wife, would only happily say that his wife hit well, and even blow on her fist, afraid that her hand would get hurt.

But the pain of engorgement still needed to be solved. Seth called the doctor, who said it was a very normal physiological phenomenon and that he could buy a medical-grade breast pump, but that might be a bit painful.

Seth thought about it circuitously. What about a manual one? He certainly couldn’t bear to let Fang Chen feel pain. The man carried Fang Chen to the bed, stared at the spot, and swallowed. “It will feel better if it’s sucked out, right?”

Fang Chen’s face and neck were flushed red, and he stammered, “I guess so.”

With an eager expression, Seth dived right in. Fang Chen seemed startled, but soon, subconsciously, he hugged the man’s head tightly. He saw in the floor-to-ceiling mirror, their figures overlapping, their shadows falling on the floor, indistinguishable from each other.

---

Half a month before the due date, Fang Chen was admitted to the hospital in advance. He felt that Seth was making a mountain out of a molehill, but he really couldn’t refuse the man’s request. After all, Seth had developed prenatal anxiety first and could no longer sleep well.

The hospital room was a VVVVIP suite, as big as an apartment and had everything, so Fang Chen didn’t feel uncomfortable staying there.

Seth went home during the day to scoop poop and walk the dog, then hurried back to the hospital to see his wife, only to find the room empty. For a moment, his mind went blank. The person was gone… Did he give birth?

It was the first time Seth had ever been so flustered. He stumbled out, almost bumping into a doctor, and grabbed him, his voice trembling as he asked, “Where’s the person from this room?”

“He…”

“Seth.” Jamin was helping Fang Chen out of the bathroom. Fang Chen called his name and asked him, “What are you doing? Did you bring me a blueberry cake? I’ve been waiting for you for so long!”

Turning his head, he saw that the blueberry cake had fallen on the floor, dropped in the panic just now. Fang Chen glared at him angrily. His little cake!

Seth’s heart felt like it had been on a roller coaster. He suddenly relaxed and immediately said, “I’ll go buy you one.” But he quickly corrected himself. “No, I’ll order delivery.” He couldn’t leave Fang Chen for a minute.

In fact, all these worries were unnecessary. Three days later, Fang Chen gave birth to the baby smoothly. The whole process was very smooth. Omega childbirth technology was very advanced now, and there wouldn’t be any accidents.

Fang Chen looked at the baby. Although he wouldn’t officially differentiate until he was eighteen, a genetic test was done at birth, and there was a high probability that he was an Alpha. He touched the baby’s small hand, then his head. After a few minutes, Seth, who was beside him, couldn’t help but say, “Let the nurse take him away for now. Let me have a good look at you.”

Fang Chen found it strange. “Why are you looking at me?”

Seth leaned over and gently pressed his lips against his. The Omega’s body smelled of milk mixed with the scent of tangerine pheromones, like a citrus fruit soaked in cheese, sweet and fragrant.

For the first time, the man showed weakness to him. “I was scared. When I saw you being wheeled into the delivery room, I was scared to death.”

Fang Chen hugged him back. “It’s okay, I’m fine.”

Seth took the opportunity to rub against his wife. “Can I sleep holding you tonight? Baby, I haven’t dared to hold you these past few nights.”

Fang Chen patted him. “Don’t call me that. The baby is right next to us.”

“You are my baby.”

Seth couldn’t hold back anymore. He cupped Fang Chen’s face, lowered his head, and kissed him. This was his treasure. Even if he had forgotten their past encounter, he would make him fall in love with him again.

“Baby, how’s your ‘marry first, love later’ plan going?”

Kissed until his whole body went soft, Fang Chen opened his eyes slightly, thought for a moment in a daze, and said vaguely, “What a stupid question. It succeeded a long time ago.”

Seth smiled happily and kissed him again.
