Don't You Need an Omega Lucky Charm - Chapter 32.2
Inside the house, a subtle shampoo scent and the Alpha scent layered over it flowed out together.
His gaze dropped down to the suitcase, then returned to Ha-on’s face again.
“What’s going on?”
Though the question was calm, his gaze shook ever so slightly.
Ha-on smiled while pretending to be as composed as possible.
“Well, I came to live here.”
“…What.”
Even though he was a person with almost no change in expression, his eyebrows definitely went up right now.
“I came to move in together.”
“Why?”
“I told you we don’t have much time. So we have to use it resourcefully.”
Ha-on tapped the suitcase handle.
“One week is too short, so I can’t waste even a single minute.”
Though he said that with his mouth, inside he was attaching a completely different sentence.
‘And I also have to find that problem box.’
That box he had read about in the original novel.
To find that out, he had to search through the inside of this house himself.
“Senior, where should I sleep?”
When Ha-on asked with intentional shamelessness, Cha Jeongwon’s gaze sank slightly.
And then, he yanked the wrist holding the suitcase handle with a tap.
As if a training camp’s iron gate were closing, his body was sucked inside.
“You, right now.”
The sound of the door closing came from behind.
With the feeling of the lock engaging with a click, a piece of the outside world was cut off.
“Do you know what kind of den you’ve walked into?”
His voice was low, but the end sounded slightly hitched.
Though it could have sounded like a threat, to Ha-on’s ears it strangely sounded like an invitation mixed with expectation.
“I know.”
Ha-on answered with a smile.
“I walked in knowing it.”
A den where Alpha pheromones were stacked layer upon layer.
And a one-week dating den that Yoon Ha-on would create, which didn’t exist in the original novel.
“By the way, Senior.”
As his tension unwound, the bag standing at the front door suddenly felt heavy.
“I want to drink beer.”
Before bringing up the words, he slightly checked his reaction.
He wanted to wrap up the end of the first day of dating with a can of beer.
A brief silence flowed.
Cha Jeongwon let out a breath akin to a sigh once, and then dropped his shoulders slightly like a person who had given up on everything.
“Only one can.”
***
Ha-on thought to himself after drinking his fill of beer.
I drank wine earlier too, didn’t I?
‘Mixing drinks isn’t a good choice, but…’
Even while thinking that, he tilted the beer can again.
The carbonation whipped around inside his mouth before passing down his throat. It felt as though he were naturally feeling refreshed.
Right, I should drink. So many things happened today, of course I should drink.
“You’re not going to drink a lot, right?”
Beside him, Cha Jeongwon spoke dryly.
Ha-on gulped down the beer once more, then raised his index finger toward the air.
“Can’t I drink just one more glass?”
“What kind of drunk habits are you going to throw this time if you get drunk?”
A rebuke like usual popped out with a tap. However, it was a voice slightly softened compared to before.
“There’s nothing for me to cling to you for anymore anyway. We already went to the suite room.”
“Who knows again? Whether you’ll cling to saying you like something else this time.”
What other thing?
Rolling his pupils here and there, Ha-on looked at Cha Jeongwon with a face asking if it could be.
He seemed to know what his gaze was saying, but there was no reaction.
“Ah… Can you imagine me clinging to you, saying I like you, Senior?”
Ha-on glanced at the refrigerator.
“Then shall I try drinking more?”
When he came out acting like there was nothing he couldn’t do, Cha Jeongwon approached the refrigerator, pulled out all the beer, and put it in the sink. Then he turned on the warm water.
The sound of cool water was heard. Leaning against the sink, he looked back at Ha-on.
“If you like lukewarm beer, I won’t stop you.”
“Mean.”
Ha-on replaced his dissatisfaction toward Cha Jeongwon by drinking the remaining beer.
For some reason, just by drinking beer, his body felt as if it were being emptied. It wasn’t that his head was dizzy, but a feeling that his body was growing slightly lighter?
Or was his tense and fatigued mind unwinding a bit?
Besides, a nice smell kept coming from the person sitting right beside him. That unique energy rising over the shampoo scent wrapped around him dizzily.
‘He took suppressants yesterday too.’
It was definitely so. That memory felt distantly far away.
Come to think of it, thinking like that, he had fought intensely with Cha Jeongwon yesterday.
Having done that, today they made out until their lips turned swollen.
‘Is the suppressant not working well, though?’
Strangely, his shoulders felt heavy.
While Ha-on blinked his eyes, Cha Jeongwon’s gaze did not fall away. He was staring as if to remember everything about Ha-on.
Cha Jeongwon said in a low voice:
“If you cling to me saying you like me even without being drunk, I’ll accept it.”
