Chapter 39 - First Heat 2

'You can't Wonho!!!' Minwoo sighs and inhales deeply. This is getting ridiculous. He should just leave him be. It is not as if they were in good terms anyway. He should not care.

'Fine. Whatever. You know what you're getting yourself into right? Suit yourself.'

He is about to take his leave again when he hears a muffled cry in between Wonho's knees. The man is really crying and is trying his best to hold it in. 'What's happening to me? I don't… I don't know…'

'You fucking serious? Are you kidding me?' Minwoo almost screams but settles with raising his voice again instead.

'You're in fucking heat Wonho! Are you that stupid or what?' He pauses at a sudden realization, 'Is this one of your desperate act to sleep with me?'

Minwoo stands there waiting for an answer. He might have hit the bullseye. Wonho might have figured out who he is and is now desperate to take him back, like all the other pathetic omegas trying to get him as their mate. What he did not expect is Wonho standing up on his weak legs and stumbles away, trying to go down the stairs in spite being all wobbly. 'Yahh, where are you going?'

No answer.

'Yaah!! Seo Wonho!' He pushes the man towards the wall, placing both his hands on each side of Wonho's head, making a barrier in case the man falls down. He notices the tears flowing down the man's flushed face before a look of pure horror replaced it.

Wonho starts to scream and pushes Minwoo's face away from him with his other hand on his shoulder doing the same, although it didn't make any difference because he is too weak. It did, however, startled Minwoo, who pushes himself and steps backwards a few steps away from the horrified man. 'I'm sorry… I wasn't trying to…'

Minwoo notices the scent getting stronger, more than he thought was possible, and realizes it is because it is mixed with fear. Unfortunately, his own body is starting to betray himself by reacting to it despite him feeling sorry for what he did.

He hears omegas do that when they feel threatened to attract their mates or other alphas to help them, but he thought it is merely old wives' tale. Because no omegas are able to do that. Maybe, if they are scared to the extreme, but he never met one who has. And even if it is possible, doing it during their heat would be suicide considering how the alphas will want to mate with them instead.

'Yaah… c-calm down.' He tries to assure the other but he, himself is a bit shaken with that experience. On the other hand, Wonho already made himself down the stairs without looking back. 'Where are you going?'

'Somewhere...'

'You can't… Jesus! You need to be indoors you hear me?' Minwoo stares at the back of Wonho. The man really seems like he believes it is only a severe case of a stomachache and Minwoo is worried that he may attract the wrong attention while being out in the open. Furthermore, it doesn't seem like he is going to his room from the looks of it, he may try to go to the lake.

Minwoo is sure he will get himself lost again though.

Because Seo Wonho is just a complicated person who is a bit oblivious to his surroundings. Without thinking, Minwoo grabs Wonho and carried him bridal style down the stairs. He was expecting a fight but is surprised when the man just rests his head on his chest instead, nuzzling it.

'Where are we going?'

'Somewhere safe.'

#####

Shit. He brought Wonho back to his apartment. What the hell was he thinking? 

And now Wonho is in his bedroom. All alone while Minwoo is outside pacing back and forth in front of his television. Wonho's scent got weaker compared to half an hour ago but that was because he had calmed down a bit.

But what about tomorrow? And the day after? What about during his peak? What should Minwoo do? Just sit in in front of the television waiting for it to pass?

He isn't sure he is that strong. This is the first time he ever felt tempted towards an omega since his return, in fact, this is the first time he ever felt like losing control just by being in the presence of an omega in heat and that puzzles him. Nobody ever has that effect over him, at least not after he learned how to control himself.

But Seo Wonho...

He was already attracted to him when he was supposed to be a beta, and now that he is an omega, Minwoo realizes he is loving the man's scent as well. And above all of that, he is now in heat, in Minwoo's room. His alluring scent just begging Minwoo to hold him, the sweat droplets on his skin urging the alpha to lick them clean... Minwoo wants to just give in to his carnal desire and fill the man with his seeds.

But he won't do that. He won't waste his energy on that fine human being. He is still mad. Maybe.

He can just lend the house to Wonho for a few days until this is over since he sleeps at the dorm anyways. Yes, that is a good idea.

He knocks a few times to make sure the male on the other side is ready for his presence before calling in, 'Wonho, I'm gonna go now. You can use the house freely. There's food in the fridge. Just eat that when you're hungry.'

HeHe waits for an answer, but none is heard. Not even a movement. Has he already fallen asleep?

'Wonho? Seo?' He tries again. He should really not enter right now but he is really curious. No, not because he wants to take a peek at the omega taking care of his needs. Well that too. Mostly that. But also, because he wants to make sure the other got his message. With no answer yet again, he decides to open the door anyway, slowly as to not startle the man. 

'Yah! What are you doing on the floor?'
