Publicly, no one knew about Douglass's accident, so naturally, they wouldn't know that Douglass had lost part of his memory.They also wouldn't know that Mitch Forbes, whom they believed to be his lover, was now just an ex-lover and merely an omega purchased for sexual encounters for a certain period of time.Fortunately, Douglass didn't bring that up. Mitch also refrained from saying anything unnecessary since it was better to appear as if they were in a relationship. It felt less pathetic that way."Is that someone Douglass Brady has been hiding and not showing us?""Really? I'm surprised someone with his personality actually has a lover.""But why did he suddenly bring him here?"Douglass frowned at the crowd of people gathering around."Move aside, you're being annoying."He apparently hadn't expected to receive this much attention. He seemed to have assumed that he and Mitch had previously attended gatherings together and brought him along without any particular intention.But if
Even if I were to check the face of Douglass's fiancée, nothing would change. I didn't have the courage to approach her and speak, nor did I have the right to stop their marriage at this point.No. Even if I made up my mind, could I really stop it? Douglass chose his fiancée over Mitch Forbes even before losing his memories. So from the beginning, I was never in a position to make choices or interfere.I was just curious about who Douglass would end up marrying.Mitch downed the remaining champagne in his glass. Despite the cool liquid flowing down his throat, a flush of heat kept rising from within.Something felt off. Was it because I'm too nervous? Or was I excited by the mention of Douglass's fiancée?When Mitch showed no signs of backing down, Marlon reluctantly looked around. Then he carefully pointed to a woman smiling brightly in the center of the hall.A woman in a form-fitting red mini dress with natural wavy hair. Anyone could see she was brimming with confidence. And she h
The silence that lasted only a few seconds felt unbearably long and heavy to Mitch."W-what should I do?"—Heat cycle?"Yeah. But what if other people notice? I think I bumped into an alpha on my way to the bathroom..."—I'm coming now. Get into a stall."Y-yes. Okay."Hearing Douglass's exceptionally calm voice, Mitch's excitement gradually subsided.—Do you remember which bathroom you're in?"I think it's the one you can see when you exit the hall... I'm not sure exactly."—Alright. Don't come out. Wait for me.But when the call ended, his briefly calmed mind became urgent again. He felt his temperature rising, and the burning thirst he had dismissed as the effects of alcohol now seemed entirely due to his heat cycle, making his mouth go dry.Being in this situation for the first time, he was belatedly overwhelmed with self-blame for acting too carelessly. He had no idea if the woman he had been talking to at the table noticed his condition, or how many others might have detected hi
"Mitch Forbes. Shouldn't you at least drink some water?"After Mitch had passed out during sex and showed no signs of waking up even hours later, Douglass's patience reached its limit.Come to think of it, he couldn't remember eating anything properly since leaving the gathering and coming to the apartment with Mitch. At this rate, dehydration symptoms would likely come first.Douglass looked disapprovingly at Mitch, whose body was sticky with semen, then got up from the bed. He felt Mitch's grip tightening on his arm, but when Douglass turned away abruptly, Mitch's hand fell limply onto the bed.He went to the living room and opened the refrigerator. Having rarely eaten at home while living alone, he hadn't realized how empty it was. There were only beverages, a container of adobo, and a few sauce bottles that looked like they had been purchased long ago.Douglass irritably took out bottled water and closed the refrigerator. When he returned to the bedroom, he saw Mitch lying face do
Sammy gladly accepted Mitch's proposal to supply desserts from his bakery. Mitch was especially grateful to Sammy since he had already been rejected by several other famous bakeries with similar requests."Mitch, have you thought about which desserts you want to focus on?""Yes. Actually, even though we're an espresso bar, our highest sales come from Americanos, and given our location, we get a lot of office workers.""That makes sense.""So I think it would be good to have one dessert that pairs well with espresso, and another that goes well with Americano as our main offerings.""Wouldn't it be better to increase the variety a bit more?""Then inventory and quality control would become difficult... If possible, I'd rather focus on quality over quantity. I've heard so many comments about our desserts being subpar. It's embarrassing, to be honest.""Haha.""I need to make up for it with this opportunity."Mitch wanted to select desserts that would best complement the café's signature
"It's not opening hours yet... And if you came in, you should have said something.""I was going to, but you looked busy."Mitch rolled his eyes, wondering why Douglass was here this morning. Had he returned from his trip already? After the text exchange from the other day, there had been no contact, so Mitch thought he was still in San Francisco.Douglass smiled as he watched Mitch covering his mouth and diligently chewing the remaining food."What?"Mitch asked belatedly after swallowing everything in his mouth."It's unusual to see you eating something.""Ah. I was in the process of selecting new desserts to sell."Mitch suddenly recalled that Douglass quite enjoyed sweet foods. After a moment's hesitation, he looked at Douglass standing across the counter."Are you busy?""Why?""If not, could you spare a moment?"He then opened the door to the kitchen, inviting him in. If he left Douglass standing outside, passersby might find it strange. Although it was early enough that most we
"I wish you would end things with Douglass now."Douglass's mother cut straight to the point before Mitch even had a chance to touch the teacup in front of him.Mitch's hand froze mid-air, shocked. He hadn't expected her to know about his relationship with Douglass Brady."How... How long have you known?""Is that important?"She was exactly as Mitch remembered her—calm and elegant. Her gestures and voice matched perfectly with the sophisticated classical music playing in the background."..."Mitch swallowed dryly, not knowing what to say. He had prided himself on successfully keeping their relationship secret all this time. Perhaps dating the youngest son of a famous corporate chairman was impossible to hide after all."Given the years you've spent together, you'll need some time to sort things out."She maintained her composure despite facing Mitch Forbes, someone far beneath her preciously raised son. Every movement—lifting her teacup, sipping her tea, fixing her hair—exuded dignit
Douglass Brady and Mitch Forbes, who seemed to have nothing in common, first met in middle school.Due to his father's alcoholism and gambling that left no money for living expenses, Mitch's mother began working as a caregiver early on. Thanks to her youth and competence, after a few years, many people requested her specifically as their caregiver.Through coincidental opportunities, she cared for people from wealthy families, which led to more work through referrals. Douglass was one of the children she cared for.Douglass had manifested as an alpha earlier than average, and unfortunately, his pheromones were so strong compared to his peers that they needed to be regulated with medication. This caused him frequent illness.Pheromone imbalances during adolescence, if not treated at the right time, could become a lifelong condition. The doctor advised minimizing pheromone contact with others until his condition stabilized. Following this recommendation, Douglass was isolated at his fam

There was no mention of signing, and he just silently read the words written on the paper, so I thought something was wrong. I worried about what would happen if he refused, but as soon as the next day came, Douglass sent an additional contract through his lawyer.The conditions he proposed were as follows:Article 1: "Mitch Forbes" agrees not to have any private meetings with other alphas during the term of this contract (6 months).Article 2: "Mitch Forbes" agrees to spend all heat cycles that occur during the contract period with "Douglass Brady."Article 3: "Mitch Forbes" agrees not to change jobs or open a new store during the contract period, and will only work within the "Laverne Building."Article 4: "Mitch Forbes" agrees to gain at least 5kg in weight during the term of this contract.Mitch had to read the last clause again because it didn't make sense. When he asked Douglass why he included it, he replied that Mitch was too skinny and frail, and there wasn't enough to hold o
Finding that strange only momentarily, he grasped Mitch's waist and gently flipped him over. In an instant, Mitch was positioned with his upper body against the desk and his buttocks pushed toward Douglass."It doesn't hurt now, right?""Haa, haa..."Mitch's head could be seen nodding.Douglass spread Mitch's buttocks that were pressed against his groin and pushed his dick back in. The hole that had been tightly gripping his entire dick just moments ago opened smoothly, as if it had never been closed."Mmng."The delicate flesh welcomed the dick without any resistance. The sensation of the hot inner walls squeezing and pressing against his dick was exquisite. Douglass cursed for what seemed like the umpteenth time and thrust all the way to the base.The white buttocks and waist that were precariously accommodating the formidable dick twitched. Between the round buttocks, the in-and-out movement of his dick was explicitly visible.Douglass held Mitch's pelvis, which kept trying to coll
Mitch obediently approached and sat on his lap as instructed. The rough texture of the suit against his bare skin made him shiver involuntarily.Mitch's gaze drifted to the window blinds, which were more than halfway down. Though it seemed unlikely anyone could see from outside, there was still an unfamiliar fear that came with the location. His shoulders hunched instinctively from the cold air."Unzip my pants and take out my dick. You know how, right?"Seeing Mitch trembling so much despite this clearly not being his first time, Douglass found himself speaking in a reassuring tone. His voice was tinged with thick anticipation.Mitch nodded and lowered his hand to unzip Douglass's pants.Douglass's pheromones gradually spread throughout the room. It was a familiar sensation. Despite feeling tense and ashamed, Mitch became aroused easily—his body had already been conditioned to respond this way.Douglass caressed Mitch's back and waist, which had captivated his attention from earlier.
