That day, they had lunch outside and bought dinner when they arrived home. After enjoying their time, Viona thought she should let Ethan take a rest. So she bought their dinner on the way home since it was already nearly 7 pm.
They had spent a lot of time outside. And it brightened up Ethan's mood. So Viona was confident it was definitely worth it.
'If it continues like this, I am sure we will get close very soon.'
Only if things were that simple!
But she intended to do it.
"Here, sit down."
Ethan and Viona had dinner together. Even though Ethan didn't talk as usual, he seemed to have changed a lot. His complex looked happy.
After having dinner, Ethan saw Viona going to the guest room to sleep. That ruined his mood again. She still went to that room instead of sleeping together with him.
But Viona wanted to sleep with Ethan so badly. She wanted to sleep hugging her husband who smelled like lemon and made her crave for more. But she knew she might end up doing something inappropriate if she were to get too close to him. She still had to wait. It was still early.
That day also went the same, but they the distance between them had got smaller.
...
The next day,
Viona woke up smelling the breakfast. Ethan was making breakfast and Viona was still sleeping. It was not a surprise that Ethan didn't even bother to wake her up. She couldn't get mad anymore. She slowly understood Ethan's perspective of her.
He was simply thinking he was a servant to his alpha.
That was a very very bad situation. If she couldn't change his way of thinking about her, they might never get close. He would keep thinking of serving her instead of loving her. It would be a tasteless life.
Viona had to think about a solution too. However, first of all, she's gonna fill up her stomach. It was growling like mad.
After having breakfast, Viona was the first to talk again.
"I will have to work from tomorrow on."
Viona couldn't rest for long. She had many things to take care of. So she had to go to work from next day and what she wanted to know was if Ethan was also going to work tomorrow.
"I see..."
Ethan said and didn't say anything other than that. Viona was a little frustrated.
"Mm...What about you? Are you also going to work tomorrow?"
Viona asked him. To tell the truth, she didn't want him to go. She didn't like it. She had the urge to order him not to go there. But considering Ethan's way of thinking, she knew it would make him misunderstand her. So she tried her very best to make it sound like she gave the choice to Ethan.
"...I haven't thought about it yet."
Which simply meant he was not interested in his job. But Viona was thoughtful.
"Okay...If you decide to go to work, then you must tell me..."
Just as she thought their talk would end there, Ethan suddenly parted his lips to tell something. Viona was excited to see what he wanted to say.
"You...won't mark me?"
Ethan looked at Viona and asked with that pitiful face. He must have thought she didn't want to do it. However, Ethan wanted her mark, so he could finally rest assured at least the slightest about getting into trouble with other alphas.
"...You want me to mark you?"
"...You don't want to? I am sorry then..I-"
"No! I waited until you asked me by yourself. I wanted you to accept it by yourself. I want to mark you...so badly..."
Viona's face turned red as she explained she had thought about marking him ever since their wedding.
"Ah! I am sorry...I made you wait."
He apologised again and Viona somewhat felt she had said something wrong. Ethan always took it the wrong way.
"So what about I mark you temporarily? Later when you are in heat, I can mark you permanently."
Ethan stayed silent for a few minutes and then nodded. He didn't think far of marking permanently. He was a little surprised to hear her talking about permanently marking already. She wanted to make him her omega so badly. And when Ethan realised that, he felt a tingle in his heart again.
Why this alpha gives him so much hope?
He felt so cherished.
Someone wanted him.
He suddenly turned red like a tomato which made Viona burst out laughing.
Ethan looked at the woman trying to cover her laugh and felt a little embarrassed because he knew she was laughing at him.
"What are you laughing at?"
He couldn't help but ask her.
"You are so cute. If you look at your face now, I am sure you will be surprised. Ethan...you look like a tomato."
She stood up and walked to Ethan as she couldn't hold it. Her adorable husband was making her lose herself.
"Then should I do it now?"
"What?"
"Marking!"
"Ah! Okay!"
Ethan suddenly got ashamed and he had nothing in his mind. So he had to think for a while to continue talking with her. Viona couldn't help but laugh at his clumsy behaviour. That side of him felt so cute. Her omega...He was the best.
Ethan was wearing a shirt that reached his neck and covered most of his scent gland. So they had to take off his shirt first. It was Viona's first time seeing his upper body naked and she couldn't help but get surprised.
It was just bones! He looked really skinny. All this time, he had been wearing oversized clothes and she didn't notice he was that skinny…
'Did this guy ever eat?'
Viona touched his back in worry. She felt very hurt seeing him like that. She didn't expect him to be in such a bad state.
"Mm...Viona?"
She had been lost in thoughts and her hand had been caressing Ethan's back for some time. That was enough to stiff Ethan. Her touch made him weak as it was stimulating.
"Ah… I am sorry. I was thinking if it will hurt you."
She touched his nape and caressed it gently.
'This is the place!'
His nape was very sensitive to her touch and he shivered when her hand touched there. She was an alpha after all.
"Ethan, Release some pheromones. I want to smell them."
It was not a good idea. She might end up losing control.
But Viona wanted to mix their scents and make it perfect. As she asked, the next moment, the lemon smell flew around the living room. Viona suddenly got into the mood and she also started releasing her alpha pheromones which were a little strong to Ethan.
The pheromones were always the main leader that causes everything. Alpha's pheromones could make an omega follow their will. They could make an omega feel weak and even faint if it was too threatening.
Viona's pheromones made Ethan hard to breathe and weak. But he breathed steadily and tried his best to restrain himself from clinging to her. Her pheromones were a new scent for him. Ethan had never smelled that before. But it was very pleasant and calm. He thought it suited her.
"Ethan, it will hurt a bit. But I will be as gentle as I can."
Viona already learned many things about omegas at school. It said the temporary marking would only last for 30 days and it would be better to mark him permanently. The temporary mark would not cause him much difference, but it would still be useful.
Viona brought Ethan to the couch first. They were sitting on chairs and Viona felt Ethan might not be able to hold himself. He might faint or get weak from the pain. So for his safety, she brought him to the couch and asked him to turn around.
His back was facing her, she really wanted to touch him so badly as his pheromones were provoking her. But she managed to hold herself. Her one hand grabbed his shoulder and the other was placed around his neck.
She then bit his nape, not too hard, yet quick and heard Ethan groaning in pain.
She patted her hand on his shoulder to calm him down. It must have hurt.
Finally, Viona felt the iron taste in her mouth. She released more pheromones and waited like that for a few more minutes expecting her scent would soon enter her omega. After around five minutes, she licked the wound clean and moved away as she confirmed the bleeding had stopped.
It was then her omega...
The teeth marks were printed in red on his nape.
'I think I did it right. I guess, I didn't bite too hard.'
She touched the wound and released some calming pheromones to make Ethan feel comfortable.
Alphas have different types of pheromones. Even though it was still the same pheromones, it won't feel the same every time. Depending on the alpha's mood, others get to feel her pheromones.
When an alpha is angry, they release very aggressive and offensive pheromones which can leave even some alphas in terror. Omegas stand no chance. They might even die.
When alphas want to comfort their partner, they could release those comforting pheromones which can calm and relieve the pain of omegas. They use them while having sex most of the time. In order to make their partner feel less painful, that was the best way.
And about this marking...
Now she had marked him temporarily. Within these 30 days, he would not be affected by any other alpha's scent other than hers. So he doesn't have to worry about facing others.
He had Viona's scent all over him which warns other alphas that he is already taken and he has an alpha.
He was temporarily hers.
"Done! I can smell my scent coming from you."
Viona looked very proud. Ethan was in pain, but he felt warm. Finally, someone was happy because of him. He watched her again observing his wound and said it would not hurt anymore.
"Now your turn!"
Viona looked hopefully at Ethan. But Ethan was confused.
'What turn?'
Omegas can't mark alphas as they want. They could mark only if that alpha allows, but it could only happen after he was marked permanently, not temporarily.
'Does she not know that?'
Ethan was going to tell her about it when she suddenly hugged him.
"Ethan...Release more pheromones. More! I need more. Cover me with your pheromones. So I can be yours."
'Ah…she meant it that way.'
Even though Omegas can't mark alphas that easily, they could simply leave their scent on their alpha with just a hug or touch.
That was what Viona was asking for. However, that scent might not stay long since it just remains in their skin. Omega's scent on alpha could be washed away by using a body wash or another omega's scent.
Viona already had Ethan's smell on her. Their scents mixed together before, in that marking process. Viona was simply greedy and wanted to get a little more intimate with him.
Ethan released some pheromones since she wanted them. She smiled happily but didn't let go of Ethan. She wanted to kiss him, touch him everywhere and make a mess out of him, taking advantage of his weak state.
She was going to do it. She was going to force him down with her pheromones. But at the last moment, she somehow managed to come back to her senses. She wouldn't believe she had such thoughts to force him. It hurt her very badly.
'Am I such a bad person?'
Well, alphas usually lose control because of omega pheromones. That's normal. The abnormality was that she really managed to hold herself back. She was a strong alpha.
"My Omega...I am your alpha, never forget that...I am all yours..."
