ARE MATE'S REAL?A hand extended in front of his face, with a cold juice meant for him.Seeing that he didn't he react and still in daze, a flick on his forehead makes him comeback to reality, it was painful for a one shot of hit, instantly forming a red mark.“What was that for! I told you not to do it anymore, crazy, it hurts!.”With continuous curses coming from his mouth, while rubbing it, he was ignoring that hand purposely, holding a juice meant for him.“Just say that you don't want to be freshened up, why make my hand hang to air?”About to retract the hand that been extending, Aru grab the juice and drink, feeling the cold temperatures, walk in every corner of his cells, from every sip and loosen up his tense muscles.“Say! You're in a daze again, what?” HiVi started a conversation.Talking, but both of their eyes are fixated on the cold juice.“Nothing in particular.” Honestly speaking, he just remembered how he got here, by force, and how there's only one person who stand for him that day, wondering how's that girl doing now. Back then, he thought that his mother will report him missing that day, but weeks to months 'till the contract ends now, nobody look for him, no one.(Am I not worth looking for, I guess?) He thought to himself and sigh in deep breath.“Hey hey hey! The heck! That sigh, you're ruining the night, look how peaceful Chang-An tonight.” Joking aside, his finger pointing at the clear glass window in front of them.“Does your client, fuck you like a rodeo again?”Aru look at him with WHAT DO YOU MEAN lookThen ignored him again and take another sip of juice.HiVi might guess wrong, but everyone knows the reason most of his client, he served are like that, it's because when he signed the contract, they can state what part of their body was off limits, other elite states their hand, their ears, their back, their front genital, but to him, what he states was his lips.As an elite, they don't have to show their faces like the common prostitute, whose always available below the bar.Then twenty elites prostitutes, are being shown, only on pictures with mask on their left side face, that are still worn during their service, to avoid being recognized, on the back of their pictures, states their preference if a top or a bottom or can do both or BDSM type, their price for the night in every hour, their likes and their off limits body parts.Given this kind of treatment to elites was just enough, since they're the ones who suffered most during deflowering process, that after being devirginize they fall into trauma, stay long in bed for a week.Elite are too expensive they're only allowed to be sold one times, a night and if a price was triple to ten, for a certain elite, then they can do it twice or more, which never happen to him because he was the most expensive one, yet every night he never got vacant, but end up almost unable to stand, not until tonight.Since his lips were off limits, then most of his clients like no preparation and directly plunge their hard cock and bang him without consideration, then leave him like a paper crumpled, every time they're done doing it with him, if it's ever called intimate after all.“Tsk forget what I say, I know I state the obvious.”Aru felt a little tired talking to him, and didn't clarify his wrong guess, which makes the latter annoyed.“Hmm.” was the only reply he gave him and sip the juice again.“Tomorrow will be your last day, aye?” A little sullen at the thought of it, even though this person always annoyed him, he was the only one who's real to him.“Hmmmmm.” hearing this kind of reply makes him explode, he wanted to have a normal talk, he wondered why Aru's so mean.“Fuck Aru, can't you say any other word than that? Your responses are shorter than my bangs, you know that?”“I don't know”, he ignored him again playfully, for being so talkie, then sip the juice again, it's his favourite flavour after all, pineapple.“Yeah whatever, no wonder you're so expensive because you're just a temporary pleasure, how envious.” Aru saw him pout and smile within him.He didn't respond to how HiVi was envious of him, what's to be envious about?He didn't know what to say, how they could be envious of him?, if his blood uses him as a payment.“The club will lose a costly elite and a stone face prostitute, I wonder what they find attractive on you, that every night your legs are spread apart.”“You want to die?” A threat that weight nothing, but, pure annoyance.“Hahaha fuck Aru I finally got a phrase from you, but a threat!.”“Tsk.” His done with his juice and look at the big glass window, that cover above and below of the whole floor.“Hey, you know I envy you? You can be devoid of emotions, you're so good with that poker face of yours, nobody can tell what's on your mind? If you're happy or sad, or do you even get angry?”“Hmmm.” He pushed the empty glass and loved to annoy this man.“Here we go again to your hmm? I really want to slap you.”“Hmmm?” He laughed inside him, as how HiVi, eyes grow wide from his intentional reply.“Tsk why am I even talking to you.” slumping his head over his folded arms above the counter and gaze afar seeing the night lights spread everywhere in Chang-An with a long sigh“Oh well, I guess for me, all I can do is to wait for my destined mate to come, to my rescue, unlike someone else beside me, who will finally be free.”“Destined mate? You have one? Are they real?” He got curious a sudden about this, all he knew was, Mates are very few and kind of extinct, his biological Dominant Omega mother who he hasn't seen and his Common Alpha father that went missing was never a mate, cause if they are, there was no way, that his father can have another wife, which was a Beta woman.A mate was tied by bond or marking and once they found each other, the pull was strong enough that you might end up hurting each other, but some strong Alpha and Omega can hold it, depends on if they want to accept or reject the fate of thread.And if they are both mark, their pheromones scent are just for each other, and the intimidating pheromones can still be used to pressed enemyBut if one was mark whereas the other was not, there starts imbalance of feelings, that can result in hatred, and silent suffering, that's why it's better to be marked together at once, for mutual understanding.As for the bond, both was the death of two, but few, chooses to bond.And he doesn't know if he has one, if ever mates could be real?“Aye? You don't know, how could you not know? You're a Dominant Omega, it's even possible for you to have one, tsk how unlucky of your destine mate.”“How?” he looked at him with bewildered eyes and just let him continue explaining.HiVi saw him got interested, and didn't ruin the fun because he finally can have a normal conversation to this stone face guy.“How you mean?” he asked in return“How will you know if it's your mate?”“I only heard it, that once you meet your destined mate you will be clouded with its pheromones, sometimes between the two party only one can realize it and a little late for the other party to take notice, sometimes upon meeting they pounce on each other instantly, sometimes an attack will happen in greed of desperate claiming to mark, and sometimes too much intake of other party's pheromones they passed out, that's all I know if it happens to me, I'd rather we pounce at each other instantly and live happily ever after.” his face heat up at the thought, but it was crashed by a cold statement from Aru.“What a joke of bullshit, you believe this? You ain't no kid anymore HiVi, grow up.”That's when he slammed his hand on the table, stand and leave.(Tell me? Why did I even waste my time, energy, and saliva from trying to explain everything to him and end up that way? Grrr that stone face.) HiVi muttered to himself and take the juice he has on hand and left Aru, his mood was ruin that he no longer enjoy the scenery in front of them.From their position you can see the whole city of Manila, filled with lights, but it's only a view to their eyes.4HIVI HUGS OF GOODBYE“Ticktacktoe ticktacktoe ticktacktoe.” the alarm was pressed by one lazy sleepy soft hands, and when it's about to alarm again, the other hand slam it stopped.Twisting its body, both arms high up in the air, wiggling to wake his sleeping soul.Slowly he gets up and walk bare-footed on the wooden floor, wash his face, brush his teeth, comb his hair.And wear his usual clothing a black worn-out faded T-Shirt it may look tattered, but him wearing it becomes stylish Maybe he just had the looks, that even when he was cloth with rags, it will look as if it's on trend.Just don't powder his face, or else you'll see the new meaning of beauty.Pairing the shirt with his loosely gray jogging pants.After checking his appearance one last time in front of a broken mirror, a soft, fragile Omega looking back at him.This look was totally charismatic, as he touched his left face.But what's the use of his charisma if his living a life like this?He wanted to ruin this already
5 MEAL WITH THE BOSSThe moment he hopped in the car, he was instantly pin on closed proximity, moving his face sideways, and give no reaction, he waited until the person whose pinning him make a move and let him go.And the one pinning him really touched his chin, urging him to face its predator, but to no avail he didn't budge, which makes the man disappointed.“To whom are you saving those lips, huh?, it's your last service, can't I have the credibility to taste this----arggghhh!, the shit! You dare bite me?”They almost kiss with his persistence if not Aru's courage of giving his all to bite his ears, the thing Cafelle wants never happen."I sign a contract and stated my mouth is off limits! Why insist--------Slap.His next words were cut, by that unexpected hit on his left side face, sure enough HiVi was right, he really won’t dare touch an elite because his heavy-handed, and that slapped was pretty hard, for an Omega.Dark circles surround his vision, stinging sound echo on his
6BDSM(Bondage and Discipline, Dominance and Submission, Sadochism and Masochism)Red room represents itself by its name, the walls the chandelier, everything was red, even the flicker of the candles that adds to the atmospheric theme of Red room.They're both naked on heel that Aru can feel his every step on the carpet, he can't help but watch every of his step behind, which left a footprint and slowly dissipates after he lifts his feet up, made him giggle inside.“I can see you're enjoying the treatment of my carpet, huh?”Their eyes met upon that remarks of Cafelle, a hawk watching its prey, but Aru just, look at him and said none.“So warm, I wonder how he managed to maintain this luxurious carpet” that was what he had in his mind, ignoring Cafelle's remarks “What a cold Omega” Few more steps, and Aru bump onto someone's wide back, when the latter stop.“You can strip now, put your clothes to that cabinet.” he pointed at the single cabinet present at the roomAru follow so, afte
7HIVI'S INTERRUPTIONSBang!The door swung open in a loud thud.That startle the living daylights out of Cafelle his eyes then focus to the one who just arrived.While Aru come without Cafelle's knowledge, then pass out from tiredness.Since Aru was facing the door he managed to see a faint shadow of someone barging in, he felt grateful for its interruptions, or else who knows what will Cafelle do to him, if he had found out, he come before the due.And let darkness overtake him.“What the! Who are you?!!! What do you think you're doing?”Cafelle angrily look to see who's the intruder that destroy the excitement he was engrossed, he felt anger upon the ruin of the heated session.Inhale ExhaleLoads of air just to calm down, from that sudden fright he received, and meet the eyes of a stranger who's looking back straight at him, but notice what's around its neck.“Who let you in? Butler!.” He shouted, thinking his butler was just around the corner, he can't help but massage both sid
8FREEDOM ON HANDAru was half asleep when carried by the butler, to transfer him from another room, the clicking sound of his collar makes him fully awake.He waited until the other person leave.Soon, as the door closes he searched for the night lamp, switch it on, illuminating the room where he was in, he looked on the left side and see the outside from the window.“How long did I pass out?” touching his neck makes him melancholy, he can't help it, tears slowly drip on each side of his face, he never thought that a day will come that the collar will be taken off from his neck and that he could make it alive.For six years of imprisonment, force to sell his body without receiving any amount, living in an unimaginable room.“I can't believe I survive, I'm not dreaming, right?,”.Pinching his thigh so hard only to feel pain, seeing the red marks cause by his nail, his happy.But he didn't let his guard down he wiped those tears away, it's not time for tears of joy.He needed to get out
9I'M HOMEPeople that's spread everywhere comes to crowd in one certain place.When the man in guard uniform make a scene.Aru try hard to shake its hands, but the grip was hard like a rock that he lost his footing and stumble down, he hissed as the pain cut his breath.“Give me my money, you thief!.” Aru can't reply when his ankle was blaring with pain from the sudden fall.And just because he didn't do what he says, now he was making a scene like he steals his money.He paid no attention as his focus diverted to the pain that's spreading from his ankle now to his thighs, he felt like crying.“What steal? Did I steal? Do I look like I'm going to steal? Argh, can I just cut my limbs now, this is dragging me down, too painful.”? He screamed inside his head, massaging the painful part and, somehow the pain was lessening a little, he also noticed that someone join the scene blindly without knowing first.One man stood near them and point a finger on him, like he really knew what's happ
10PINHOLE CAMERAAru followed behind as the old lady led the way, he can't help but notice the insides of the house he used to know, everything feels foreign to him, from structure to display even the atmosphere, this was no longer the same home before he was taken. The only home, he knows he will still long to be back, even if in his memories, this place wasn't really worth appreciating.Where two people he respected the most, won't warmly welcome his existence, yet he still wished to go back home, even if he wore a cloak of invisibility in their eyes, but now everything has changed, he's no longer invisible, he was even invited without any ire, not them but a stranger.What makes him wonder was, as to how Polly ended up marrying? His intuition telling him that it's not what he thought it was, right?“They didn't do the same thing to Polly, right?” He asked, in thin air.Like how he was forcefully taken and ended up selling his body, to different Alpha's, every night, feeling the d
11POLLY'S SACRIFICES AND PAINBut sleep made a joke out of him because the pain was now eating what he thought wasn't going to hurt.He turned sideways and touched the pillow, the very same pillow after all, he felt the warmth of his bed, it definitely makes him calm, slowly taking the unpleasant sensation from his aching foot. When he felt like, he was ready to sleep, the knock on the door take his drifting consciousness back, next thing happened was the old lady coming in without even asking for his permission, but what can he do? It's no longer the house he used to live, he was a lodger in her mercy.“Young lad, let me see your ankle again, it swelled so bad.” Aru lift his foot out of the blanket, for the old lady to see.“Oh poor boy.” She touched softly the swelling area, and lift it to her leg as she sat beside him.She noticed how Aru was staring at her, she smiled and do what she thinks the best.“Can you please check if there's an ointment in that drawer beside you?” He di
150 WE WILL ALWAYS MEET AND IN EVERY REINCARNATION FOR YOU ARE MINE, AND I AM ALL YOURS FOREVER Not long that, ViVi bid her goodbyes saying that she still had some matter to attend and leave everything to the triplets, to watch over their mom, and don't let their dad bully him.The three promised her, to never let their father hurt their mom and gave her their warmest hug and said thank you for saving them, and made ViVi cry again because the three knows how to make her soft.Then the main door opened again after fifteen minutes, ViVi left, and Kiro came holding two kids, one from each side, though they already met a few moments ago, but this time was for acknowledging their bloodline.Aru was pushed to the front by his triplets and gave him a thumbs up, then he looked forward, watching the girl's reaction.“Mom?” It was Ruruo calling about to cry, tasting the word around her lips feeling the unfamiliarity, but she smiled while saying it, with gladness in her heart.Aru opened her
149 IF IT WASN'T FOR YOU, THE TRIPLETS WON'T BE ALIVE AND ME, THANK YOU After ViVi put Aru safely getting rest on the sofa, she called one staff available nearby to find the two other kids and serve them breakfast, and face Kiro after she's done, who's only watching her impatiently.She coughed twice to remove something that blocked her throat, and clasped her fingers together, but Kiro sneered a remark before she could open her mouth.“All this time? It was you, huh! Who was hiding my Aru to me, all this time? No wonder! No wonder the whole Philippines can't find him because all along his just around me, under your shadow! Why ViVi? Have I treated you bad?”She admitted she really does ways to hide Aru, after finding he had amnesia, but she did it so Aru can no longer be hurt, it's what she wanted since they're young.The timing was just right because Aru trusted her, and so she devoted herself to keeping one place shut, even if the entire world was in a mess searching.ViVi coughe
148 THE TWO LAUGH AND WAVE IMAGINARY GOOD-BYE AS IF THE FOOD REALLY BID FAREWELL ViVi watched as the young generation left the room, she then showed herself walking in front of Kiro.“Long time no see, Mr. Kiro"Kiro looked, scrutinizing her, until it came to light why she seemed so familiar.“You”ViVi raised her hands and pointed at Aru, that made Kiro calm, Aru was groaning and couldn't hear them talking, so Kiro grabbed the chance to tell ViVi his anger.“You better explain, all this time I'm looking everywhere for my Omega, turned out you're putting a great effort to keep him away from me”ViVi shrug it off and remained silent, waiting for Aru to come conscious.Kiro throws a deadly glare at her, but ViVi has the confidence and didn't feel bothered even though Kiro was higher than her Alpha glands.Aru was in a daze, and he was overwhelmed when he felt another waves of pheromones colliding with his chaotic pheromones, from a stranger who grabbed him.Who suddenly cried and won'
147 DON'T YOU THINK YOU FOUR LOOK EXACTLY THE SAME? ALMOST IDENTICAL?Kiro then asked for Ruruo's forgiveness because he was too busy to play and tend her simple request, and as a compensation he asked her if she still wanted to go and eat her breakfast in the Pancake House.Ruruo only nodded her head in agreement without much energy, as if her father were just making an offer but not going to make it.Kiro sighed after seeing how lifeless his daughter, he searched his pocket then called HiKo over the phone, who's still busy digging the books he bought for him.And the next thing happened was that they're entering the establishment, with HiKo giving Ruruo a thumbs up because yesterday she was so angry that her father really not want to bring her to eat in the Pancake House.Then HiKo gave her an advice to cry, before their father could go to work, like he did when he wanted to buy the Houchi50 series book, that was only sold in Europe, and tadaaaa their work was in success, their fat
146 BECAUSE IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE A CRUSHED AT ALL, BUT RATHER BULLYING “No mommy was just proud to have three Alpha in a row, it means, I have stronger babies”The triplets sigh loudly and smile widely, the wrench in their hearts were gone instantly and feel the happiest kids on earth, right after hearing their mother's answer The truth was that, Aru didn't have to worry about her babies being bullied, or being the center of the food chain, unlike an Omega himself, who needs to be careful everytime, most of the time.The result in his hands somewhat made him relax that gives him a break, after knowing they're the apex of the food chain, an Alpha of Dominant traits.It makes Aru question, if it's because of his Dominant traits or what?But it didn't cross Aru's mind, what made the trio all Dominant was because of their Alpha father.Because Extreme Dominant Alpha only comes out once a hundred years, and it's not inheritable, but a blessing for the chosen one, but the later generatio
145 MOM, GRANDMA RURUO I THINK I'M COMING WITH YOUSuddenly, Aru was rejoicing, upon the sight before him, where RiVi was struggling to breathe while coughing a lot of blood.“It worked” Aru exclaimed.Aru's face couldn't hold back his glee and from there he pushed RiVi away, and showed his true colour, his pheromones also released his intention.“Finally, I had my revenge! I didn't expect to see you die like this, in my hands, under my watch, what a pure bliss”.Aru laughed triumphantly as he saw RiVi coughing more blood, and its chest was painted red, just how red the night he howled for the death of his daughter.RiVi was holding his neck, coughing more blood, staining the white sheet red, but still had the strength to grab Aru.It was fast and because he was also feeling weak from the inside, he didn't get the chance to flee and fall underneath RiVi, pressed on the cold floor.And Aru felt the shiver, when he saw the mocking smile, around the blooded appearance of RiVi.“You didn
144 HOW LONG I WAITED TO SEE YOU NAKED UNDERNEATH MEKiro knew Aru will be glad more than he could imagine, that's why he needed to find him before Aru do anything, to harm himself.“Aru, where are you? Our daughter's alive, please comeback"After a long week, Aru was still not found, news and poster of him are spread all over the Philippines, but no news arrives.Kiro was getting anxious as the days went by, his daughter was safe and sound besides him, with no scratches aside from Kolein who suffered some injuries.Then someone knocked on the door, he didn't expect it was to be Kolein, who was being helped by Klein, he thought he still needed rest, he's not rushing him to tell what had happened, but he was dying to know.“He said he called you multiple times, but you didn't answer the call”Kolein said after sitting on the bed with Klein on the side.“Who?” Kiro asked.“It was an anonymous number, I also received his call, when we were attacked on our way for the outing”Kiro rememb
143THE MAN WHO CAUSE THE DEATH OF HIS MOTHER AND DAUGHTER, WILL BREATHE ITS LAST TONIGHTThe heart monitor was beating regularly, telling Kiro that Aru was safe and already out of danger, he almost lost the will to live if he ever mistakenly killed his mate.Then his phone rang and received a text from Klein telling him that the team sent to search for Kolein already found his mate.Though the news of Kolein being found was great and that they were excited to tell him another good news.Kiro didn't reply and breathed heavily, and just wondered what was the good news, they wanted to tell him, but he couldn't be lively like them, he felt horrible after losing his temper and hurt Aru.“I'm sorry, I should've been more careful, please wake up, I promise to do anything you want, just don't wish for me to leave you, that I can't do”If it were ordinary days, Kiro would've loved to hear any good news from his people, but he was still mourning for his loss, and Aru's still lying unconscious
142DON'T SCARE ME LIKE THAT, I ALREADY HAVE A BAD DREAMWhen Aru awaken, his eyes checked where he was and saw, he was inside their bedroom, then see if he has anything weird on his shirt, if his body was real, but he saw nothing and that his skin was fine.“Not a drop of blood” He breathed a sigh of relief, thinking it was just a bad dream.But when he noticed that, his clothes were not the same one his wearing, it was a matter of a split of seconds when he realized that the atmosphere was unusually gloomy even the curtains were not lively.“Hahaha”He laughed, kind of assuring himself.“Of course, a dream is never the same as reality”But even as he did it, something was still off, especially Kiro's side of the bed, was never wrinkled, telling him that Kiro didn't share the bed the whole night.Unlike to how he saw Kiro's blanket, crumpled every day, he jumped out of bed, and wanted to rush, right next door where his daughter was.And upon opening the door, he saw Kiro about to go
