Absolute Advantage - Chapter 28.1

“Yes.”

Adam unknowingly lowered himself.

Like a puppy who wants the owner’s touch. Hae-won touched Adam’s cheek.

It was then that he felt his heart melt away. At the same time, he was surprised to see himself moving back and forth at every word Haewon said.

‘I’m not even a kid.’

No, I’m not.

Now, if one looks at them, they would think he is Haewon’s puppy. It wasn’t enough to wag its tail like crazy, because just asking for things made him want to flip his stomach over right away.

It’s a shame that Haewon doesn’t have a hobby in that way. Well, but it wasn’t bad to treat him like a dog because she kept petting him. Adam demoted himself as a dog.

Even if she’s a girl, this alpha is dangerous.

Adam thought with a smile as if he knew nothing.

“Still.”

Suddenly, Haewon withdrew the hand that was stroking his cheek. Adam felt sorry for it, but this time she covered his face with both hands.

“Don’t do that from now on.”

Adam felt like his tail was drooping. He wanted to feel Haewon’s warm touch.

“I don’t want to cause you worry. From now on, I will be able to behave properly enough that you do not have to step forward. Okay?”

Hae-won added strength.

“I don’t want you to be in danger because of me.”

Adam gulped down his saliva. His lower body was throbbing with heat, and the muscles of the whole body have also become as firm as an erection.

Hae-won took a step back and touched his hair.

He thought she was conscious of the atmosphere of tension, but she wasn’t.

“Well, I’ll go wash my face. I look terrible, don’t I?

Hae-won smiled awkwardly. Then she glanced at Adam a few times and walked quickly to the bedroom.

“…….”

Adam, who was left alone, stood stupid. Then, he carefully stroked the cheek that Hae-won had touched.

Seo Haewon.

He thought she was docile, but was she really a scary alpha?

Adam came to his senses late and raised his head. The door to the bedroom where Haewon entered was firmly shut as if not welcoming intruders.

How could you fascinate people like this and disappear?

Adam twisted his lips as he stared at the closed door.

“Hoo.”

Haewon exhaled a deep breath.

As she washed her face right away, her face wet with water was reflected in the mirror.

‘Seo Haewon. Did you put on makeup?’

‘N-no.’

‘But why are your lips so red?’

‘…….’

‘Ah, you’re an omega, right?’

‘…….’

‘Don’t make it obvious. If you want to live in this house for a long time.’

‘…….’

“A shallow woman.”

Sera’s voice suddenly rang in her head.

It was a day less than a year after she had been picked up by Chairman Seo and returned to Korea. It’s been over ten years, but it’s still as vivid as yesterday.

‘Shallow…’

Hae-won frowned while looking in the mirror. Hee wet face looked more flushed today.

Was it like this when I was eating with Adam?

She pressed her innocent lips with her fingertips.

Brown hair like dyed hair, light brown eyes and red lips, and dark double eyelids cast shadows around the eyes, making them look depressed.

She had never liked her face before.

It’s not just her face.

Her existence was despair itself.

‘Haewon, your face, when you eat, is cute.’

‘You’re good at interviews, you chew well, what can’t you do?’

So when she heard that, she knew it was empty words, but honestly, her heart tickled pleasantly. She lived a life where even empty words and compliments with obvious intentions were expensive to afford.

But it’s only once.

You can’t be excited.

As she lowered her head as if she were running away, water droplets on her chin fell on the sink. Haewon stared blankly at the hole in the sink where the water was escaping.

It would be nice if she could send away her thoughts that mess up hér head, like the water that goes down the drain.

‘Oh, my God. Adam’s waiting.’

Hae-won hurriedly wiped her face with a towel and brushed her wet hair lightly. She was about to leave the bathroom, but the liquid inside her panties became sticky as soon as she took her step.

“Huh…!?”

Haewon crouched down at the door in a hurry. Then she glanced in the direction of Adam’s living room for no reason. As if she was trapped in one space with him.

When she thought of Adam, fluids flowed out again.

“Is it a heat?”

Hae-won’s heart was pounding.

Since there is an alpha of reproductive age in a safe space called home, it was a natural phenomenon for Haewon, an omega of suitable age, to have a heat cycle.

However, for Haewon, who did not know that Adam was an alpha, it was a bolt from the blue. Is it a side effect of an overdose of inhibitors? Or was the injection the problem?
