Use Me Like A Drug (omegaverse bl)-Chapter 121: Hours before the red

Hours before the gate

Yujun’s POV

My hands are still shaking and I can’t keep my scent under control.

My omega is upset at being pinned down by the female alpha who lacks self respect and only cares to cause trouble.

This is why being an omega is a curse.

Being a male one is double the curse.

And being a pregnant one...my hand drifts to my stomach.

I hate the way Sehwa’s taunting has a strong effect on me.

I keep looking over my shoulder, knowing that that woman is somewhere plotting something.

"Are you okay?" Chan asks me, with his arms around my shoulder.

"Yes" I say even though I am sure I am anything but okay.

Chan keeps a scowl on his face as we walk around the store.

"I wish you hadn’t run away from me" he says under his breath, and I look at him with a frown on my face.

"I wasn’t running" I respond.

"Yujun" he calls my name in a tone I haven’t heard from him before.

The tone he used at the hospital. His face remains neutral, like a man with complete control over himself.

The scariest type.

"I smelled the second you made that choice Yujun" he says and his face softens.

"Why are you so angry?" I ask, unhappy with the way he is reacting to my choice...didn’t he say I was not a prisoner.

"I smelled the second you chose to run and I heard your heart, I was going to wait for you to return to me but then I smelled your pup" he says with a pained expression.

It’s disturbing how he knows everything...when I’m distressed, when I’m uncomfortable and now...when I am trying to run away.

"I’m fine" I insist glaring at him.

"You don’t understand, everything you do affects your pup" he says.

"Everything" he repeats and I shut my eyes.

I catch a whiff of myself, I smell strongly of my distress and there is a mild but noticeable smell of spoiled milk.

"I understand, get your hands off me" I say and he steps back, "sorry" he mutters.

I growl at him before relaxing.

I shouldn’t let Sehwa get me like this, I should keep myself together, there is so much to do now.

I have Yunah to protect, my pup and even if she hurts me, my mother.

"Should we keep checking around?" he says and I let out a sigh of tiredness.

"I will come back another day" I say quietly, another day, I will return and get away for real.

"Let’s go get your new phone then" he says, back to the bashful alpha that has been hovering around me like a shadow.

I try to walk behind him, but he shakes his head, refusing to move until I am standing in front of him.

"Seriously" I say under my breath, "I just want to keep you safe" he says.

His attention to me makes my heart warm, it feels nice to be protected, after years of being the protector.

After taking a few steps forward, I spot a blue and white jellyfish plushie and stop right in front of it.

It looks so short and precious.

"I want this...please" I say without raising my volume or looking back, I know he’s right beside me.

"Of course, anything" he says, he comes behind me and stretches his hand to take the toy from the shelf.

"It’s pretty" he says and hands it over to me.

I hold the soft toy and squeeze it softly.

I will have my pup, and my pup would be fine...right?

"I’ll go pay" Chan says to me and I hum softly, too emotional to say anything.

He stands beside me, hesitating before he groans softly.

"Please, don’t run away again" he says and I nod.

"I’m serious" he says and I sigh, "go, I’m not running...you’ll find me anyway" I say and he leaves me.

I hug the toy to my chest and a woman with a baby bump stops with a smile on her face.

"Hello" she greets me sweetly.

"Hello" I bow in greeting and her smile widens, "It’s so nice to see a father shopping for their pups" she says.

I blush as I realize what she means.

"How far along is your omega?" she asks.

"T-three weeks" I stutter, remembering the date Chan had given me at the hospital and she gasps.

"Aigoo, you are shopping this early? What a nice gentleman you are!" she exclaims and my blush deepens.

My omega stirs, showing a sign of being pleased with an omega’s praise.

"Thank you" I say.

I lift my head and find Chan watching us from a distance with a soft smile on his face.

"You should help her a lot, the early stage needs an alpha’s scent, you know pups feed on safety" she says and I nod.

An alpha’s scent...something near impossible, our alpha is absent.

"Hyung" Chan calls and walks over to me like he’s just finding me.

He must have smelled my change in mood.

"We need to go soon, work calls" he says and the woman greets Chan.

"Hello, I have to go too, send my hellos to your omega" she says and waves again before leaving.

"Thank you" I say to him.

He hands me the bag the toy will be placed in but I don’t accept it just yet, I want to keep holding it.

Taking a deep breath, I look to Chan, considering asking him about running a test for me, to let me know everything I need to know about my baby.

’Do you trust him?’ my omega asks.

’You trusted Jaehyun on the go’ I say and my omega goes silent.

Chan has many questionable parts about him...a god acting like a nobody is disturbing, but he has only been good to me.

"What are you thinking about" he asks and I look to a café.

"I want matcha after getting my phone" I say and he chuckles, "whatever you want" he says.

What I want...I want my Jaehyun...I want Sehwa to leave my family alone...I want my family.

But let’s get matcha for me, it’s a good day...isn’t it?
