Bye-Bye

I couldn’t sleep and wake up late. The brunch was simply replaced with coffee.  I was already late for the appointment, so I might get hungry later, but it would be better if I skipped a meal today.

I was standing in front of the mirror after putting on an ivory turtleneck, a wool coat, and a loafer.

Well… 

I looked at myself from various angles, but I don’t think this was it. I should change.

I wore a casual jacket that reached waist length and layered a light sky blue shirt with knitwear. I changed into jeans and put on shoes.

It was a desperate effort to appear even a year younger.

Phew…

The pale young man in the mirror stood with a troubled expression on his face.

I raised the corners of my mouth and closed my eyes.

“I’m conscious of the fact that I need to eat breakfast. I make the best soybean paste stew. If it’s okay with you, I’d like to have more than two children. I get along well with elders.”

And what else should I say…

There must be a reason why he chose a male Omega rather than female Omega. I’ll have to find out while talking.

Let’s become an excellent Omega who quickly grasps the other’s needs.

I made up my mind and left the house.

***

I arrived at the ○○ hotel’s main entrance. A strong wind blew as soon as I stepped out of the taxi, and my exposed ankle became cold.

However, when I consider the future children who will grow up in happy families, I can bear this much!

Even though it was late at night, there were a lot of people in the hotel lobby. There were a lot of couples and families.

Children laughed as they gathered around the large and colorful Christmas tree, and parents were busy taking pictures of the children with big smiles. My heart softened.

Uncle [○○ Hotel 5001 Suite Room, please arrive on time]

I checked the message again and got on the elevator.

Aside from me, a group of men in black suits entered.

It was strange that they came to the hotel wearing such a suit on this date and time.

They look like a gangster and their faces seem so familiar for some reason, so I tried not to look at them anymore.

“…”

I walked out of the elevator when the doors opened on the floor I pressed.  The gangster-like brother was also stopping on this floor.

My spine began to shiver.

I walked quickly. The gangster-like brother did not appear to be following me, but I got goosebumps because they were standing in front of the elevator as if blocking the exit.

Room 5001.

I ignored the tingly feeling in the back of my head and made my way to the promised room.

What will his reaction be when he sees me…

People even spit swear words at the appearance that differed from the picture. The majority of them laughed as they looked up and down.

I was also worried that he might be shorter than me. I should’ve asked about the height.

I comforted my heart, which was tightened by fear and tension.

I’m going to be one of those people who comes to the hotel on Christmas eve to spend time with my family.

Let’s smile beautifully. Let’s succeed.

I knocked on the door after tidying up and putting on a smiling face. The door soon opened with an electronic sound.

“…”

“…”

??? 

I blinked my eyes.

I blinked and blinked again, but the face in front of me did not change.

I was so embarrassed that I just pursed my lips and backed away. I closed the door and checked the plat again.

Room 5001, suite room.

I was puzzled as to how this had happened, so I opened the door from the other side.

The man was dressed casually, with only one short-sleeved shirt over cotton pants, rather than in the formal suit.

I looked up at his angry forearm muscles and shoulders as if I were possessed. He looked younger than usual with his bangs down, and his face was expressionless as usual.

With his cold eyes and a scar on his cheek that no one else would have, this big man was definitely the real Choi Sung-hoon.

“I am… I must have come to the wrong place. That’s weird… ”

“You’ve come to the right place. It’s right here, so please come on in.”

“…”

Choi Sung-hoon guided me inside.  I didn’t know what to say, and I couldn’t even bring myself to look at the gorgeous suites.

Choi Sung-hoon sat me down at the round table and naturally took off my coat. 

“Didn’t you put on a down jacket on this cold day? Your ankles are all exposed.”

A 45-year-old divorced man… a dominant Alpha with a home in the countryside…

“Did you change your suicide method with freezing to death?”

He has one child… the director of a math academy…

“I don’t recommend drowning or freezing to death.”

There could only be one conclusion to this…

“… It’s a fraud…”

“No, It’s not“

When I muttered quietly, Choi Sung-hoon denied it at once.

“Why would you make your thoughts stand out?”

He roughly hung my coat over the chair after saying it ridiculously. I was even more speechless when I noticed him sitting naturally across from me.

“What’s going on? Why is Choi Sung-hoon ssi here? I’m here to date.”

“Date?”

A cold smirk crept across his lips.

“What kind of date at ten o’clock at night in a hotel room?”

It was a sentence that pricked my conscience. I felt my face heating up.

It was my only specialty at times like these to go out shamelessly.

“It’s because my partner and I are both extremely busy. There are no restaurants open at this time… More importantly, why are you here?”

“There’s a phone call. Let’s take it.”

Choi Sung-hoon held out a cell phone to me. But it was actually my phone. I guess he took it from my coat pocket.

[Uncle] 

He saw the displayed name and touched the call button.

“Uncle, what happened? Why… “

– I’m not sure. Suddenly, I received a phone call informing me that something had happened… Mr. Lee was not like that, but his voice trembled as if he was frightened. It looks like something big happened to the house.

“When did you got the call?” 

– About 20 minutes ago?

I looked at Choi Sung-hoon. 

The more I hear about it, the more perplexed I become.

– In any case, I’ll reschedule the appointment for you later, so feel free to use the suite on your own today. Or should I contact another dominant Alpha I know?

“You’re trembling.”

The curse I was about to say, didn’t come out of my mouth. Choi Sung-hoon’s voice was low, but loud enough for my uncle to hear.

– You bastard, What did you just say?

“Seo-yu ssi, if you already know the reason, hang up now.”

– What? Whose voice is this? Who are you with?

“No, I don’t understand what you’re talking about.”

“I’ll explain.”

-Who are you talking to? Seo-yu!

I hung up on my uncle. Choi Sung-hoon took the phone away from me. Meanwhile, blood vessels protruded on the back of his hand.

“I heard the call the day I slept at your place. I knew the place and date, but I couldn’t hear the time, so I waited since morning.”

“When, ah… “

I think it was last week. Choi Sung-hoon was in the kitchen when we rescheduled our date with my uncle and apparently overheard all of our conversations.

“I thought the date was canceled because I couldn’t see you until the evening, but an Alpha came crawling in about 30 minutes ago. I persuaded him well and sent him back.”

Well persuaded.

I didn’t ask how well he persuaded him to be that scared. I thought I’d be scared as well if I heard it. 

“I’m speechless. Right now, you’re planning a date with someone else. Why are you crossing your legs with such a confident look?”

“I’ve interrupted your date and saved you from perv Alpha. There was a very small hidden camera in his bag.”

What? Hidden camera?

Ah, uncle.  Son of a bitch.

You said he was the head of a decent math academy!

He arrived 30 minutes before the scheduled time. I thought he was a man of manners but he was trying to install a hidden camera. I should remember this and use it the next time I want to curse my uncle. 

“I’m grateful for that. But why did you disturb me in the first place?”

“Well.”

Choi Sung-hoon got out of his chair. He leaned against the round table and looked down at me. Tight muscles beneath the white shirt, as if stretched and ready to kill me.

Having a conversation was impossible in this situation. Either I cover my eyes or Choi Sung-hoon puts on his clothes.

“Why am I doing this… I don’t know either.”

“…”

“I just wanted to disturb you.”

Choi Sung-hoon ruffled my bangs with the other hand that was not on the table.

I was a little slow in understanding his lines because I was swallowing saliva.

You don’t know why you disturbed my date?

Wasn’t it because you didn’t want me to be with someone else?

Because you were interested in me.

It didn’t appear that he was doing it out of pride. He himself really didn’t seem to know why.

I think my judgment on myself is quite rational and I don’t have an overconfident disease, but I seem to be right about this.

Curiosity and interest that occurs on their own when meeting people for the first time.

As a recessive Omega, I developed this feeling to help me get through a difficult world.

It was difficult to keep the smile from spreading across my face.

“Okay. I’ll let it slide with that excuse.”

“Thank you.”

“I’m thirsty, please give me some water. It’s better if it’s alcohol.“

“Wait.”

I moved to the sofa and sat comfortably while Choi Sung-hoon went to get something to drink.

I couldn’t see the suite before. 

While waiting for Choi Sung-hoon, I looked around. Because it was a duplex, the night view was spectacular, and the outdoor terrace was as large as the room.

I’m going to take a lot of pictures and brag to Won-jo. If I went to see him and told him I met an extremely dominant Alpha that jerk would be so surprised. This would be a fantastic episode that I would remember for the rest of my life.

‘On the day of my date, I met the extremely dominant Alpha with whom I had sex a few times previously~.’

The issue was that I didn’t know many people that I could share this to

After imagining one or two things, I saw Choi Sung-hoon walking with a cup of water and let my mind go.

Phew…

I turned my body around and asked euphemistically as I was handed the cup.

“How tall are you?”

Oh, damn it. Let’s go through the brain and make a move!

“I’m 196 cm.”

“Really… you’re tall. Is your weight three digits? What about your shoulder width?”

“I don’t know that much. Do you know your shoulder width, Seo-yu ssi?”

“I don’t know…”

But if you told me yours, I think I’ll be able to remember it.

“Seo-yu ssi looks like 178cm tall.”

“Oh, that’s right. You got it accurately.”

“My eye measurement is pretty accurate.”

He accurately guessed my weight and foot size, and it was so accurate that I was amazed.

So, was it done by doing something that scans or separates a person’s body in his head? Was that right?

“I have something to give you. Wait for a moment.”

Choi Sung-hoon turned around and rummaged through something next to the sofa.

I turned to look at him as a rustling sound was heard. And I noticed a black dragon ascending on his broad back.

I could see it just a little bit through the white shirt. It was a large tattoo that was slightly exposed to the top of the neck.

Gulp.

I’m afraid he’d notice the sound of swallowing. What exactly were you trying to take out?

‘I gulped down my saliva.’

After a while, what Choi Sung-hoon gave me was a neatly packaged box rather than a separate 45-year-old divorced man’s neck or blood-stained kitchen knife.

“What is this? It looks just like a gift box.”

“It’s a Christmas present.”

Choi Sung-hoon took the cup from me and gave me the box.

It was in a simple gray wrapper that wasn’t too small.

When I asked if I could open it now as a courtesy, he nodded and slightly smiled.

I carefully opened the wrapping paper. Cotton balls hopped out when I opened the box lid. I noticed fur gloves and a cell phone case wrapped in cotton wool.

The fur gloves were a light yellow color. As I was fiddling with it, Choi Sung-hoon said in a low voice.

“Because purple doesn’t suit you. Be satisfied with that.”

I fell silent when I heard that.

… Right, you asked me about it before…

Last night, I was so embarrassed… Thinking back on my drinking habits…

I couldn’t keep a straight face because I was so happy.

That someone gave me something I wanted as a gift…

It seems to be the first time…

… Since I lost my family.

A warmth rose in my heart in an instant. I haven’t felt this way in a long time, so I don’t know what to say.

I finally found the right word to express how much this touched my heart.

“Oh, damn… thank you. I’m so happy.”

“…Did you drink before coming here?“

“What? I only drank water. Why?” 

“Nothing. I’m glad you like it.”

Choi Sung-hoon’s lips twitched slightly.

“I appreciate the gift.”

I’ll try on the fur gloves later and the phone case.

A phone case that appears to be expensive at first glance was made of a material I had never used before. There was no discernible pattern, and it was quite thick. Choi Sung-hoon held out my cell phone. I did not refuse to express my intention to change the case at this time.

Crunch.

When I heard something crushing while replacing it, I noticed that Sung-Hoon Choi was smashing the original phone case with one hand. 

“You don’t need this anymore.”

When I looked at him, he explained casually and threw away the shredded case.

The memories with my ex-boyfriend were also shattered. 

I can’t believe it was possible to break the phone case with one hand.

He was so powerful.

Why does he keep getting more handsome and cool?

The phone case was also a perfect match for the phone. I gave a big beaming smile.

“Thank you for remembering it through my drinking habit and giving me this gift. I’ll use it well… I couldn’t prepare a present for you, what should I do?”

“If it had been prepared, it would have been for that pervert Alpha, not for me. It’s okay without it.”

It was a good thing I didn’t say anything about how the gift was my body and that I had a beauty bath.

There was a warm atmosphere. The spring breeze seemed to be blowing gently even though I was in a hotel room.

It wasn’t even a particularly expensive gift, but the tickling excitement for my age amazed me.

“Sung-hyun asked me if I had an appointment with you yesterday, did he know in advance?”

“I never talked about it to him. He may have heard it from other members of my employee.”

“The employee’s mouth is a mess. Sung-hyun also knows how many times we slept.”

“I’ll warn them, but when did you become so close with him?”

Choi Sung-hoon turned to face me and listened attentively to what I had to say. I remembered having a drink with him back in the day. He was definitely talking more than he used to back then. For some reason, it overlapped with the wild beasts who had relaxed their vigilance.

“We’re not close.”

“You said you had a conversation yesterday.”

“Will all 7 billion people in the world be friends if we all get close by exchanging a few messages?”

“Then we wouldn’t be friends either.”

Choi Sung-hoon’s eyes had a subtle smile around them as if he was making fun of me.

I laughed out loud.

“We’ve been close friends since today. You gave me this as a gift… I sincerely appreciate it. I’ll return your favor with something good. How about a scarf?”

“Is there a return?”

“Of course. Choi Sung-hoon ssi, do you like white or yellow?”

“I don’t have a specific favorite color.”

“Then what’s your least favorite color?”

“I don’t have one.”

“Okay, I’ll pick one for you.”

I’m going to give you a fluorescent yellow…

We sat on the couch and talked for almost an hour. I was a little hungry, so I kept drinking water. However, when I saw it, I realized Choi Sung-hoon was like a ghost on an empty stomach.

I managed to stop myself and we ordered food right away. Then, there was a talk of favorite food and food I hated, and then the topic shifted to a winter trip while talking about food at a travel destination. I’m not speaking alone because Choi Sung-hoon responded assertively, although it was short.

When the hotel’s congregate clock showed 11:30, I was the first to stop talking.

“I’m going to wash up. I wash up quickly”

“Yes, there is a bathroom on the second floor.”

I hurriedly took a shower and changed into a gown.

Choi Sung-hoon was still looking at my cell phone in the same place.

“Are you enjoying the case you gave me?”

When I approached with a smile, Choi Sung-hoon slowly put down the phone.

“I’m relieved that the model hasn’t changed in the meantime. It’s strong and won’t break even if you drop it.”

“Yeah, thank you so much.”

I sat next to him, brushing my wet hair. The front of the gown was slightly open. The bare legs that were not wearing anything were crossed.

Christmas Eve, late at night, suite room, and a washed up Omega.

Even if I were an alpha, I wouldn’t be able to let this feast got away.

I was giving him a sly look when Choi Sung-hoon inadvertently picked up the remote control from the table.

“I need to turn up the temperature.”

Beep, beep, beep.

I became frustrated by the actions of increasing it by 3 degrees.

He’s only been seeing dominant Omegas, so he won’t be seduced by someone like me…?

I didn’t show any special skills during either of our sexes…

But please give me another chance…

“How about drying your hair properly. You’re going to catch a cold.”

“If you move quickly, my hair will dry naturally.”

I responded sulkily and sloppily. He quickly returned to his senses and raised the corners of his mouth again.

“You know that, Choi Sung-hoon ssi… Are we going to just keep talking?”

I stroked Choi Sung-hoon’s forearm with my finger. It was as hard and warm as a wall. Choi Sung-hoon’s gaze shifted to my finger, then back to me. It was a look that was both cold and hot.

I knelt on the sofa and placed my hand on his shoulder. He smiled slightly when I kissed his sharp nose, which was a little lower than mine.

“You’ll get tired quickly and passed out, but you’re always the one who seduced me first.”

“So… you don’t like it?”

I don’t know if it’s the answer to the question, but Choi Sung Hoon’s hand wrapped around my cheek. A solid and comfortable warmth filled my heart. I urged him by rubbing his hand.

“Hurry up… I mean, I’ve never dressed for Christmas before.”

I planted a smile that worked countless times, but Choi Sung-hoon’s reaction was different from others.

The hand that was stroking my cheek stopped.

I took a deep breath as I tilted my head in response to the unexpected arrival of Alpha pheromone.

It was a terrible sense of pressure.

Choi Sung-hoon pulled my frozen face and pressed his lips against mine. It was a violent kiss as if to devour everything from the start.

He sucked my breath and encircled it with his tongue.  He hugged my waist with one hand. There was no place where Choi Sung-hoon’s thick and large tongue could not reach, including teeth, mouth ceilings, and gums.

“Uhmmm…! Hhmmm…”

My body gradually fell behind, unable to overcome his weight and strength.

I’ve never been pressed down by alpha pheromones.

Strong pheromones, a strong arm that clasped my waist, and a large hand holding my head so I couldn’t escape. My entire body hair seemed to rise in a coercive gesture.

“…Uhh…”

When the violent kiss was finally over, physiological tears welled up in the corners of my eyes. I blinked several times to achieve a blurry focus. But even before that, my body was lifted.

Surprised, I wrapped my arm around Choi Sung-hoon’s neck. Choi Sung-hoon held me and walked up the stairs to the second floor.
