Chapter 1 The Request
1381 Words
I was nearly torn apart by a group of Alphas, and it turned out to be my Alpha husband who regretted it later, but I didn't want him anymore......
On that day, my gentle and handsome Alpha husband forcibly aroused my estrus period.
Then took me to the Black area, where the grumpy single alphas gather.
A group of Alphas eyeing each other, attracted by my escaping Omega pheromones.
Enraged by the remaining alpha pheromones.
They lost their minds and almost tore me apart.
My husband, on the other hand, set up a video camera.
Later, he didn't want to touch my filthy body.
It's good, then it's cheaper for others.

The rain outside the window had been pouring all day. I traced the wedding ring on my left finger and sent another message to Richard: Richard, it's raining heavily outside. Be careful on your way home.
Richard glanced at his phone and then out the window. Beyond the endless curtain of rain lay the chaotic sprawl of the Lower City. It was a place the government had forgotten—a labyrinth of vagrants, streetwalkers, and disillusioned youths chasing freedom in their own way. No one with the means would ever choose to live here.
Tonight, Richard was supposed to head back to the Upper City, to our home, where I had been waiting with dinner prepared. But as he stared at the rain-soaked streets of Blackwater District, the heart of the Lower City’s chaos, a strange smile curled at the corner of his lips. He tapped a quick reply on his phone before stepping out into the storm.
A soft chime alerted me to his message.
Richard: David, I'm sorry I can't accompany you tonight. I'll be back early tomorrow for sure.
Richard's voice, mixed with the sound of rain, was exceptionally deep and gentle.
It reminded me of our university days. I would never forget that day when I woke up in the abandoned factory next to the school, the relentless drizzle hitting my face. My messy clothes, which offered no protection from the elements, my groggy head, the aching in my lower back, and the stinging sensation in my glands all indicated one thing—I had been drugged and r***d. But the perpetrator had somehow resisted the lure of pheromones and hadn't marked me. I didn't know if this was fortunate or unfortunate.
I wiped the rainwater from my face and struggled to sit up against the wall. A pair of delicate, well-maintained leather shoes appeared before my eyes. "Excuse me, are you... alright?"
I looked up at the voice to see a man in a well-tailored suit, holding a large black umbrella. His amber eyes were filled with concern, and his entire being radiated an air of trustworthiness. He was an Alpha, a gentle, handsome, and courteous Alpha.
"I'm... okay..." I wanted to ask him to help me up, but seeing my bruised wrists covered in mud, I drew back. However, he reached out his hand. "Come on, let me help you up."
I managed to get up, but my legs were trembling, weak as noodles. He suddenly handed me the umbrella. "Here, hold this."
Confused, I took it. The next second, I gasped and was lifted into the air. "Hey, wait... you'll get your clothes dirty..."
The arm around my legs and underarms tightened. "You need to go to the hospital. Hold the umbrella tight and don't let me get wet, okay?"
"O-Okay." the Alpha's dominant, warm voice rang in my ears, strangely calming my heart.
At the hospital, after the doctor sternly explained all the medication instructions to the Alpha, he turned to me with a slightly reproachful tone. "As an Alpha, you need to be more careful. He's very weak."
The Alpha nodded repeatedly. When the Alpha went to get the medicine, the doctor turned to me again. "As an Omega, although you have your own strengths, you can't be too lenient with Alphas. I know you young people are in your heat, but this... be careful in the future."
My face flushed red, and I didn't know what to do with my hands and feet. I didn't have the courage to clarify that he wasn't my Alpha. After all, an Omega showing up at the hospital because of an overzealous lover, if the accompanying person wasn't their Alpha husband, would be a disaster.
"I got the medicine. Let's go." the Alpha nodded to the doctor and asked me in a low voice, holding the plastic bag. "Do you still need me to carry you?"
I shook my head quickly and walked briskly toward the hospital entrance.
The Alpha walked me all the way to the alleyway, where his car couldn't enter. He opened the car door and helped me out, holding the medicine, and asked naturally, "Which way now?"
"Just inside, not far. Don't trouble yourself." I took the bag. "Thank you so much for today. Could you leave me your name and contact information? I..."
"What, are you planning to repay me?" the Alpha interrupted me with a teasing smile. "But I don't need money."
"I still want to pay you back..." I stubbornly finished the rest of my sentence. "So, what's your name?"
A glint flashed in the Alpha's eyes. He suddenly lowered his head and whispered in my ear, "Remember, my name is Richard Davis, a third-year research student at Riverburg University."
"Third-year research student?" I bowed deeply. "Richard, if you ever need anything from me in the future, please don't hesitate to ask."
In reality, in the Upper City, being able to study at Riverburg University meant I wouldn't be of any help to him at all.
Richard's lips curled up, and he said softly, "I do need a gentle and well-behaved Omega."
*****
But throughout the university, I never saw Richard again. I didn't try to inquire about him either. With our difference in status, having no contact seemed only natural. However, news about him never ceased. He was indeed a true elite Alpha.
Life in the Upper City was expensive, so after graduation, I took on an extra job as a waiter for the late-night shift at a restaurant.
At two in the morning, I had just unbuttoned my uniform when I suddenly heard the head waiter call me. "David White—Room 408 is calling for service. Hurry up!"
I quickly put on my black vest and ran out of the locker room. My colleagues were leaving work in twos and threes. 'Hey, I have to be quicker next time.' I resigned myself to my fate and pushed open the door of Room 408. "Hello, what can I... Ah—"
A rich Alpha pheromone enveloped me, and I fell into a warm embrace.
"Excuse me, sir..." Before I could finish my sentence, I was released. I turned around to meet Richard's bright eyes. "Richard?"
Richard was as gentle as ever. "David, long time no see. That was just a little joke, you don't mind, do you?"
"No, no, not at all. What would you like to order, Richard?" I skillfully picked up the ordering device, but I saw his gaze drop. Following his line of sight, I saw my unbuttoned shirt, exposing a large part of my collarbone. I hurriedly adjusted my clothes. "Richard, could you please pretend you didn't see that? I'll get penalized for being improperly dressed..."
"Pfft—" Richard looked away with a hint of regret. "David, I'm here to ask for your... help. Do you still remember what you said back then?"
"Of course."
"then what I said also counts."
I recalled Richard saying he needed a gentle and well-behaved Omega, and my face flushed involuntarily. He took the ordering device from my hand but didn't let go of my hand. His gaze was burning. "Is that okay, David?"
My heart pounded uncontrollably, and my tongue felt heavy. "Richard, I didn't understand..."
"David," Richard said, turning my face to meet his gaze, his tone serious. "David, let me be your Alpha, okay?"
I felt a tremor run through me. "Richard, we're not compatible... um..."
Richard lingered, brushing his lips against mine. "We are perfect together. Please don't reject me, okay?"
I must have been out of my mind.
