"I forgot you got my na tattooed on your butt," Adrian said, his fingers teasing the ink as he touched Lucien’s skin. Lucien lay on the mattress, face down, letting him explore.
Still squeezing, Adrian added, "And why did you do it?"
Lucien smirked shyly. "Because you’re the only one allowed to touch them."
Adrian’s grin deepened, and his tone grew more teasing. "Then...why were you crying when I was fucking you? It wasn’t your first ti..."
Lucien’s cheeks flushed, his voice barely above a whisper. "It’s been ages since...since I’ve been with you. Call it a second virginity, I guess. And the first...of course, you are the one who broke it too."
Adrian’s thoughts wondered back to the ride Lucien had given Ash. Curiosity got the better of him.
"I heard recently you were dropping soone off at my place," Adrian asked, keeping his tone casual.
Lucien’s lips curled into a knowing smirk. "Oh... Ash Veiyln. That beta kid you sponsored their project, right?"
"Mmn," Adrian murmured, intrigued.
Lucien continued, his eyes glinting. "I was just giving him a ride . Little did I know he happens to be one of your servant’s sons."
Adrian froze in his thoughts. Servant’s son...?
Lucien leaned closer, voice smooth. "Coincidentally, you’re his sponsor and also happens to be his mother’s boss. Smart kid indeed...still a beta, but captivating. If he were an oga, Alphas would be losing their minds over him."
He turned to fix Adrian with fierce gaze. Their eyes locked, the tension palpable.
"But...the one in front of should be hypnotized by alone."
He leaned in, lips brushing near Adrian’s when suddenly a shrill sound interrupted the mont.
Adrian’s phone rang.
He picked it up. Bravin’s voice ca through on the speaker.
"Alpha Adrian...are you okay?"
"Mmn," Adrian replied softly.
"I’m outside Alpha Lucien’s apartnt. Sorry for being late," Bravin continued.
Lucien’s eyes narrowed in annoyance. "Bitch...knows how to ruin a good mont?" he muttered under his breath.
Adrian stirred, stretching slightly. "I need to go," he said reluctantly.
Lucien’s expression darkened with disappointnt. "Why can’t you stay? Spend the night here. Go at dawn."
"I need to go," Adrian insisted. "I don’t want my father to worry."
Lucien scratched the back of his head, frustrated yet slightly amused. "Your clothes are soaked from earlier...you can wear mine."

{Ash}
Ash stood on the balcony, eyes fixed on the approaching car lights. Relief washed over him as he watched the Bugatti roll in and the lights switch off.
Adrian was midway up the stairs when he froze. Ash was standing there, unexpected.
Adrian tilted his head, puzzled. "Why haven’t you gone to sleep yet?" he asked.
Ash stamred, unsure how to answer.
As Adrian climbed closer, Ash caught an intriguing scent. The faint smile on his face fell, replaced by a shadow of disappointnt. His hands clenched into fists at his sides.
That sll...from an Alpha. Not just any Alpha...an S-ranking Alpha. He had...slept with an Alpha.
Adrian moved an inch closer; just a hair breadth, and asked softly, "What do you want to tell ?"
Ash’s gaze dropped to the floor. "Forget it," he murmured and turned toward his room.
Adrian remained on the landing, confusion clear on his face as he watched Ash retreat.
...
"I thought that day he helped out of dignity...I just wanted to thank him. Little did I know I was lucky he didn’t...take advantage of ." Ash’s voice trembled.
"Disgusting Alpha...he goes after whatever he wants. I have to be careful in this house, or he might ruin everything I’m saving for my future...my one true Alpha."
He flopped onto the bed, rolling slightly as he buried his face into a pillow, then pushed it aside with a frustrated huff. His hand rose to lips. "I’m thinking about being claid...and I haven’t even had my first kiss yet."
Tears welled in his eyes. He sniffled softly, muttering almost to himself.
Ash’s sobs were quiet, almost laughably innocent, yet tingled with the complicated mix of fear, and frustration that churned inside him.
...
{Adrian}
Adrian lay on his bed, staring at the wall that separated his room from Ash’s. His brow furrowed.
What’s wrong with him? he thought. Such an attitude...
He shifted slightly, still fixated on the wall, curiosity mixing with mild frustration.
...
{Lucien}
Lucien stirred in his bed as the bell rang, pulling him from sleep. Who could that be...so early in the morning? he wondered, still half-dreaming.
No one knows about my new place; not my parents, sister, or friends. Only Adrian, whom I brought here last night...Or has he he co back?
Rubbing the soreness in his butt, he murmured, "The devil...that thrust was rough."
Grimacing, he swung his legs over the side of the bed and reached for his robe. Pulling it on, he slid his feet into his sandals over his socks and headed toward the door, curiosity pushing him forward despite the lingering ache.
Lucien swung the door open, still groggy.
"So...this is your hideout, brother," Celeste said a sly smile on her lips.
Lucien’s mood darkened instantly. "What are you doing here?" he growled, dragging his feet toward the sitting area, still half-asleep.
Celeste hurried after him, stopping right in front of him. She leaned in slightly, inhaling, a knowing glint in her eyes. "Alpha Adrian was here...I can sll his presence. And the way you’re walking...did you?"
Lucien fell silent, his jaw tightening.
"I know...he is the one who can only bend over and bottom you," she whispered, her voice sharp, anger flaring in her gaze.
They stared at each other. Then, white pheromones began radiating from Celeste, swirling around her. Instantly, her eyes took on the white hue of her pheromones. "But don’t forget," she added, her tone icy, "I’m the one officially betrothed to him; soon to be married off, brother."
Lucien’s knuckles clenched into fists. Purple pheromones burst from his body, dark and pulsing, and his eyes glowed purple, mirroring the energy around him. "He is marrying you out of duty...but his body belongs to !"
The two forces collided, purple against white, swirling violently. Glasses in the house shattered; the building trembled as the pheromones battled, a storm of colors filling the space.
Celeste staggered, knees buckling under the force of Lucien’s dominance. Slowly, the purple pheromones swallowed the white, leaving the room charged with Lucian’s aura.
Breathing heavily, Lucian’s returned to normal. His eyes shifted back to their original color, glare fixed on Celeste. "Rember...I’m too powerful. You can’t defeat ."
Celeste trembled, her eyes returning to normal.
