NOVEL NEXT Chapter 68
It was hard to smell the pheromones that resembled the scent of flowers, so I jumped up from my seat.
“Are you alright, Chan-young ssi?”
“Oh, nothing! I just feel a little hot. Ha ha.”
I fanned myself and hoped that the lingering scent on my skin would go away while keeping a distance from Seo Eun-soo.
‘I’ve been taking inhibitors though…….’
It was embarrassing because the feeling of brightness was conveyed to the unspeakable part. God, did I react to Seo Eun-soo’s alpha pheromone?
‘What a shameless person!’
[1]
Chan-young is referring to himself in case you’re confused.
I knew that Seo Eun-soo usually tries to lock up alpha pheromones as much as possible. That’s why I felt more trashy.
‘Crazy person, crazy person!’
Hold on. This may be because of Seong Chan-young’s body. Alphas are not my cup of tea. So it made me feel a little at ease to think that I reacted like Pavlov’s dog.
“Well, Seo Eun-soo ssi, you can start from the left. I’ll take the right line and finish it all the way to the center.”
The land I chose for cultivation to grow soybeans was not very large, so it seemed that the two of us could plant them quickly.
‘You’d better stay away.’
I should check the heat cycle cycle when I go back. I had a hunch that if I missed the timing to take inhibitors, I would be in trouble.
“Okay, Chan-young ssi. Then go in to rest after you’re done.”
“Yes.”
Maybe I was the only one who felt in trouble. Seo Eun-soo silently planted the beans, as I told him with a pure and innocent expression. Only my conscience was stabbed.
‘Pheromone is the sin, Seong Chan-young is the sin.’
Reciting this Buddhist chant, I quickly planted the beans without thinking. Sometimes I could feel the gaze from behind, but I focused on the beans without caring if the gongs were looking at me or not.
“You’ve planted it all.”
“My back hurts a little though.”
Seo Eun-soo and I were great workers. We quickly met in the center, covered the last vinyl, and then drilled a hole.
After we finished, I went back home as promised. In fact, I wanted to work more, but Seo Eun-soo seemed to be secretly worried about my health, so I put it aside for about ten thousand times.
As soon as I took off my muddy boots and
arm warmers
, I remembered General who would have fallen asleep by now.
“
Cham
[2]
It’s like an exclaimination word like oh! often used when talking to oneself.
, it’s time to take General for a walk.”
“Shall I take him for a walk instead? You look tired.”
“No. I’m the owner, so I will definitely take General for a walk.”
General followed me the most, the man who saved him, but he was also gentle with Seo Eun-soo. However, I didn’t want to pass on General to Seo Eun-soo for a walk.
However, Seo Eun-soo expressed his desire to go with me.
“Can I come with you?”
“It’s not that you can’t but……. Why would you want to do that?”
“I was worried that you got hurt by someone else last time. I’m still worried about Chan-young’s health.”
‘When will this misunderstanding be resolved?’
Since I had a seizure, it was difficult to explain further, so I was almost giving up. I should have admitted then that I felt fine even for a moment.
“Do as you please. If Seo Eun-soo comes with me, general will like it even more.”
“Then please wait a moment. I’ll go change.”
“……? Yes, go ahead.”
‘You can just go, but why are you even changing?’
I was going to wear clothes covered with dust, but he didn’t seem to have the intention. Seo Eun-soo must like neat things, so I decided to pass it over.
While Seo Eun-soo went to change, I woke up general and put him on the harness and lead rope.
“Woof, woof.”
“Did you sleep well, General? You have someone else to take a walk with today.”
“Have you waited a long time?”
Seo Eun-soo appeared in neat jeans and a white T-shirt. It was a common combination, but when Seo Eun-soo wore it, it was as refreshing as an ion drink advertisement.
“Sometimes I think that it would have been nice if Seo Eun-soo had become a celebrity.”
“I’ve heard a lot of compliments for my appearance. I’ve actually been offered a street casting while walking on the street.”
“Why didn’t you? I think it would have been a good opportunity.”
“I don’t think I have any talent there. So I refused all of them.”
“I see.”
If the outstanding face itself was a talent, it was a talent, but I didn’t want to force it, so I agreed. We walked along the trail, having small talks along the way.
When I reached the place where I faced Moon Kyung-sik, the strange man from last time, general began to growl sensitively.
“Grrrrrrrrrr…….”
“He’s not the one to bark randomly though.”
Generals ability to detect crises is now unconditionally believed. I quickly tried to go back with Seo Eun-soo, but I was a step late.
“It seems we’ve met again. Seong Chan-young ssi.”
“……Hello, Moon Kyung-sik ssi.”
Moon Kyung-sik, a man with a ripe skin tone under the sun, greeted me and came toward me. General barked louder as Moon Kyung-sik approached.
“Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!”
“The dog is too loud. You’d better put on a muzzle. Or you can tie it up in the kennel.”
“I heard it’s good to walk dogs four times a day. I’ll consider the muzzle. I didn’t expect to see Moon Kyung-sik ssi again.”
I said it with a smile, but I answered firmly at his point of malice.
There was usually no one on this trail, so I didn’t think of a muzzle. While talking about the muzzle, I thought that I would rather find another trail because it was obvious that general would be uncomfortable.
“This is why I hate dogs. I hate animals themselves because they are reluctant to do so.”
Moon Kyung-sik’s eyes, who told an unquestioned story, turned from noisy general to Seo Eun-soo, standing next to me.
“Is he an employee? He’s young and pretty. Is it for ‘those uses?”
I forgot what to say for a moment at Moon Kyung-sik’s words. The level of rudeness was unspeakably unpleasant.
“I’m not that kind of person. Seo Eun-soo is a part-timer who came down for a while due to my circumstances.”
“Do you know what I meant to say, Seong Chan-young?”
“I know, but it’s something I don’t want to say, so I’ll pretend as if I didn’t hear it. There won’t be any next time.”
Still, I was offended that a man who had been polite suddenly changed his words in a situation I had never encountered before.
‘Seo Eun-soo must have been more embarrassed than me.’
As expected, Seo Eun-soo’s beautiful face was pale. I could see that it was not because of fear or shame but because of anger.
“I don’t know why you’re making remarks insulting me and Chan-young, but please be careful from now on. Moon Kyung-sik ssi.”
For the first time, a thick alpha pheromone flowed from Seo Eun-soo. The rich and thick scent of flowers, which is incomparable to the one I smelled in the wind blowing a little earlier, was ready to threaten Moon Kyung-sik.
“It’s scary. Are you threatening me with pheromones just because I said that?”
“There’s nothing impossible.”
The atmosphere was strained with tension. General became calm from the moment Seo Eun-soo took out the pheromone. He seemed to know that he was on our side.
“Do you know that this is obviously a sexual harassment?”
Seo Eun-soo’s firm voice was cold. I was sorry to think of this, but I felt sorry for Seo Eun-soo because the experience of kidnapping and confinement suffered by Seong Chan-young seemed to sharpen Seo Eun-soo.
“What if I say it’s a courtship, not a sexual harassment?”
“Eh?”
“What?”
“Woof?”
Everyone, including Seo Eun-soo and General, almost went speechless after the unexpected bombshell.
“What are you saying now…….”
“I’m interested in Seong Chan-young. Personally.”
“You’re an alpha, aren’t you? Why are you saying that towards me, a beta…….”
“I don’t care about those tastes.”
I could feel alpha’s pheromones unfolding blatantly in the air. My whole body became stiff.
‘He wants to do the marking?’
What a madman.
It was very rude to bury pheromones on someone you don’t even date as a matter of public etiquette. Last time he buried me with his pheromones, and this time he was going to invade my territory.
‘It won’t be like that this time. If I get hit by this…… Maybe I should take inhibitors right away.’
I looked at the calendar while waking up sleeping General. There was not much time left to take inhibitors.
At at a time like this, if a strong alpha pheromone is received from the outside, the received omega has a high probability of accelerating the heat cycle. This is because the body changes accordingly, thinking it was a sign to start a relationship.
“I refuse. It’s very unpleasant, so I hope we don’t run into each other next time.”
I tried to cover my nose and mouth as much as possible and move away from Moon Kyung-sik. While Seo Eun-soo took out his pheromone like a counterfire and defended, I jumped as much as I could and ran away from the crazy guy.
“Go home, Chan-young ssi.”
Seo Eun-soo soon followed. But it wasn’t a very long distance, so I was suffocated.
Instead of following us, Moon Kyung-sik shouted this.
“I thought you’d be used to pheromones because you’re living with alpha. I thought this much would be okay, but it’s a shame.”
“That madman…….”
Seo Eun-soo cursed him for me. I felt relieved.
‘What’s more than that’s…….’
It was Moon Kyung-sik’s gaze. I couldn’t read in his eyes whether it was a rational liking for me or lust.
‘Rather, he seemed to have different feelings for me.’
That healthy-blooded man hated me.
And I didn’t know why.
