THE ENIGMA'S FIRST AND LAST

WHAT COULD IT BE

The knock echoes through the hallway, and after a moment, i hear shuffling inside the room. The door opens slightly, revealing Yuxuan's flushed and disheveled face. His eyes widen as he sees me standing there, his pupils dilating with need. He's still in Rut, and the scent of his slick and pheromones is strong even through the door.

"A-alpha..."

He whimpers softly, his voice trembling as he struggles to keep himself composed. He grips the doorframe tightly, his knuckles turning white as he fights the urge to throw himself at me.

"Damn you look like hell. And don't call me Alpha. Just Hua Yong is okay." I said serious as always.

Yuxuan winces at my words, his body trembling more violently now. He looks up at me with a mixture of shame and desperation, his eyes watering slightly.

"I-I'm sorry... Hua Yong..."

He takes a shaky breath, trying to steady himself. The sound of my name on his lips sends a shiver down his spine, but he forces himself to stay where he is, knowing that he shouldn't get too close.

"You shouldn't have come... it's dangerous..."

"Dangerous?!" I laughed darkly pushing him out of the way, then turn back to him. "Don't worry that's not dangerous enough for me to hurt." I said placing the bags of food on the table.

Yuxuan stumbles back as i push past him, his body betraying him with a soft moan at my touch, wich made me smirk. I knew why he was acting like this around me. He watches me place the food down, his eyes fixated on my every move. The scent of the food mixes with his own scent, making the room feel even more suffocatingly hot.

"But... I can't control myself..."

He admits quietly, his voice barely above a whisper. He stays against the wall, his legs shaking as he tries to keep himself upright. His Rut is making it difficult for him to think straight, and having me so close is only making it worse.

"Your An A-Tier Alpha i'm pretty sure you can control yourself!" And just to play a little and just to see his reaction I spoke again. "But don't you think it's weird an Alpha being drawn to another Alpha?!"

Yuxuan's face flushes even deeper red at my words, his eyes widening in shock. He looks down at the floor, his breathing becoming more erratic.

"I-I don't know... it's not supposed to happen..."

He clenches his fists, trying to fight the pull he feels towards me. His inner Alpha is howling at him to submit, to give in to his desires, but he knows he can't. He knows it's wrong, yet he can't deny the way his body reacts to my presence.

This made him be even more lost in his thoughts and he wondered what was I really. Was I really what I said I was, or was I something else entirely.

Yuxuan's mind races with confusion and curiosity. He glances up at me again, his gaze filled with a mixture of fear and intrigue. He takes a tentative step forward, his instincts screaming at him to get closer, but he stops himself.

"You're not just an S-Tier Alpha... are you?"

He asks hesitantly, his voice trembling. He can sense that there's something different about me, something that makes his Alpha side go crazy in a way it never has before.

I'm smirk even more wider, now transforming it into a dark smile. "Mh Maybe, but that's not important for now!" I said putting the nooddles in some bowls. "Now come sit you need to eat I don't want you collapsing. I don't want to drag you!" I said still with my usual seriousness.

Yuxuan swallows hard at my smile, feeling a mixture of intimidation and fascination. He slowly makes his way to the table, his legs still shaking as he sits down. He watches me serve the food, his eyes following my every movement with a mix of hunger and obedience.

"Thank you..."

He mumbles, picking up the chopsticks with shaky hands. He tries to focus on the food, but he can't help stealing glances at me from time to time, his Alpha instincts making it difficult for him to concentrate on anything else.

I noticed it the way he moved on his chair. The way he stole glances at me. Wich made it a bit annoying. I knew he still wondered why was he drawn to me like this. What could it be?

Yuxuan shifts uncomfortably in his chair, feeling my gaze on him. He knows i've noticed his behavior, and it only makes him more self-conscious. He tries to focus on eating, but his mind keeps wandering back to the question he can't answer. Why does his Alpha side submit to me so easily? Why does he crave my attention and approval so much? He can't help but feel like there's something he's missing, something important about his own biology.

He takes a small bite of the food, savoring the taste as he tries to distract himself from his thoughts.

"So you should be good tomorrow right?!" Putting my hand under my chin.

Yuxuan nods slowly, his eyes flickering to my hand. He can feel the Rut in his body starting to subside slightly, but it's still present. He knows his Rut will probably last another day or two, but he doesn't want to admit that to me.

"I should be... at least not as bad..."

He pauses, then looks up at me with a hint of desperation.

"Will you... come back tomorrow?"

I chuckled again darkly.

"It depends if your still in the same state then just call, but if you think your not that bad and can survive it with suppresent then just come to my office like I told you too!"

Yuxuan nods once more, his eyes filled with gratitude and something else... trust. He continues to eat slowly, taking small bites as he tries to keep his composure. The food seems to help him regain some strength, and his body starts to relax a little more.

"Yes... I will rest."

He says obediently, finishing up his meal. He looks at me with a mixture of exhaustion and anticipation.

"Can you give your arm for one second?!"

Yuxuan looks at me in confusion but holds out his arm without question. His sleeve is rolled up slightly, revealing his toned forearm.

"Sure... why?"

Without even another word, I reach my pocket, takes a syringe out of it. Then in a flash even before we could see or say anything I stab it into his arm.

Yuxuan gasps in surprise as the needle pierces his skin. He looks at me with wide eyes, shock and pain etched on his face.

"What- what are you doing?!"

He tries to pull his arm back, but i hold it firmly in place. The syringe quickly empties its contents into his vein, and he feels a strange sensation spreading through his body. His eyes start to droop, and he sways slightly in his chair.

"Very strong suppressant." I say my expression unreadable, my usual seriousness.

Yuxuan's vision blurs as the suppressant takes effect. He struggles to stay conscious, his body going limp in my grip. His Alpha instincts scream at him to submit completely, to give in to the powerful drug coursing through him.

"No... I can't... I can't..."

He mumbles weakly, his voice barely audible as he fights against the overwhelming drowsiness. His head lolls to the side, and he looks up at me with pleading eyes.

"Just relax it will help you." I said smirking a bit darkly again.

Yuxuan's breathing becomes shallow, his eyelids growing heavier with each passing second. He tries to fight my words, but the suppressant is too strong. His body goes completely slack, and he lets out a soft whimper before finally passing out in my arms.

I put him on the bed, then i start to leave the room to go back to my office.

As I leave the room, Yuxuan lies unconscious on the bed, his chest rising and falling steadily. The suppressant has successfully put him into a deep sleep, suppressing his Rut and keeping him under control. His scent is now much less intense, and he appears peaceful, though his brow is slightly furrowed as if he's having a troubled dream.
