Chapter Text

a cold breeze seeped in through a window slightly ajar. White linen curtains fluttered, allowing a gentle light to shine through. A pair of eye lashes fluttered, eyebrows furrowing, seemingly disturbed by the light. He didnt seem to enjoy the cold on his face as he pulled his blanket higher and attempted to roll onto his side, however he found it difficult.

In contrast to the cool air on his face, beneath the blanket, wrapped around his waist a gentle heat. A heavy weight laid upon his stomach. He groaned, refusing to open his eyes even despite his discomfort, instead using his hands to fumble and look for whatever was weighing him down. Upon finding the issue, he attempted to untangle himself, only to be wrapped tighter.

Having enough, his eyes flickered open, he threw the blanket off in annoyance, revealing another man wrapped around him. He was slightly larger with black hair, eyebrows perfect, seemingly drawn with a single stroke of a famous artists brush. Sleeping, he looked like an angel. When the chilly wind touched the man, his eyebrows similarly furrowed and he nuzzled deeper into the smaller mans stomach, prompting a hand to pull his head up by his hair.

"Yoo Joonghyuk-ah. You're heavy." 

Joonghyuk didnt respond, rather he just buried his face deeper.. planting gentle kisses on his hips and belly. 

"Joonghyuk-ah."

"Its cold, you're warm."

The man just sighed, he was so clingy. He didnt mind, its just something he wasnt used to. Then, he felt the weight lift, Joonghyuk had finally decided to get up, feeling relieved, he was about to cuddle back into the blanket.....

Well.. Joonghyuk wasnt getting up... Instead he flopped his entire body down.

"You-!"

"You smell good, dokja."

Joonghyuk was now nuzzled into Kim dokja's neck, right next to his scent glands. Dokja took a sharp breath, he could never get used to this. He was clingy, but even more so in the mornings.

One a dominant alpha, the other an Enigma. By society their relationship was deemed wrong. Defective, as some people said. 

'Alpha's belong with omega's.' 'Enigma's need to be controlled' Biologically, yeah, this was true. By their nature, alpha's would repel other dominant sexes, Enigmas whose pheromones were so strong that they had to be isolated when they got overstimulated, were capable of calming those raging alphas.. Yet, as much pain that came, they couldnt help but drown themselves in the others pheromones

Dominant alphas were rare, Enigmas even more so , and there were two who adored each other.. Of course people would be furious. 

It was Dokja that approached first, Joonghyuk was just his type, it'd be fun to crush an alpha.. However something sparked between them...

Against all odds, against their own nature, against their own bodies screaming out in agony, they chose each other. They wanted each other. 

An unspoken, sinful bond. Never to be broken, never to be discussed.

Chapter Text

Yoo Joonghyuk wasnt the most social of people. It wasnt that he didnt want to be social, more the fact he didnt know how. Not to mention he was a dominant alpha, so many didnt really approach him.

He was 20 years old. He dropped out of college to care for his younger sister, Yoo Mia, full time. His career? A professional gamer. He went anonymous, under the name of The Supreme King. He didnt have time for friends, he didnt have time for anyone except Mia. 

....So why is it hes found himself in a club with a big group...?

His classmates from college. He had forgotten they had his number, and found himself in a groupchat named 'Get the Hermit Laid.'

The hermit was apparently him. 

So here he was, in a club surrounded by people he hadnt seen for 2 years.

Han Sooyoung, a feline-like Omega, she was the one who organised this.. Cuddled up to her, Yoo Sangah, a soft looking alpha who was stronger than she looked. Then there was Lee Hyunsung, a former military beta, he'd just completed his service and was sobbing in Jung Huiwons arms, she was an alpha too.. 

Yoo Joonghyuk sighed as he left the rowdy group to go sit alone at the bar. This was pointless. They didnt react to his pheromones considering they were either alphas, beta or already marked.. 

Whispers, He could hear them all. A sweet scent enveloped him. An omega was shooting their shot.. For fuck sake he was sick of this. 

"Hey handsome, you all alone tonight?~" Sugar coated words slipped off the omega's tongue like honey. That sweet scent was disgusting, Yoo Joonghyuks pheromones turned sour.

"Im not interested." He spat with venom, not even glancing at the woman, rather he kept his eyes on his watch more concerned about Mia.  The omega didnt seem to get the hint as she tried to touch him. The alpha was ready to swat away the hand, but didnt get a chance. He ddint need to.

A pale hand grabbed her wrist, applying pressure to her scent glands that resided there. A man's voice.

"I dont think he wants to be touched. Stop forcing yourself on any alpha you see." His voice was smooth and low, seemingly annoyed. The omega backed off at his words, scoffing and throwing a tantrum as she left. 

the man took the stool next to the alpha, ordering a drink.

"Tough being a dominant huh?"

Those words finally prompted Yoo Joonghyuk to look up. Seated beside him, a man of smaller stature. His features were delicate yet still somehow masculine. his skin was pale, his hair a deep black, eyes a similar colour. He looked so very fragile... Just like an omega, yet not a single smell. Not even a hint of a fragrance, like he was a blank slate. Yoo Joonghyuk was perplexed.. What was this man?

Noticing his confusion, the man laughed softly. Yoo Joonghyuk felt something hed never felt before at the chuckle.

"Kim Dokja."

"..Yoo Joonghyuk."

"Fitting name. You're handsome " Dokja sipped his drink, his eyes never leaving the alpha. 

No conversation was forced, there was some odd small talk, but never anything beyond that. Dokja honestly looked exhausted, there was no light in his eyes, even his smile seemed hollow. 

As the night deepened, the two went from tipsy, to drunk. Yoo Joonghyuk, at some point, becoming rather protective of this frail looking beta. He wasnt sure whether he really was a beta, but he was certainly no alpha. Every time a beta or alpha would approach the vulnerable Dokja, Joonghyuk couldnt help but exude concentrated pheromones, choking any alpha and warning any beta that approached. Thus he also came to a conclusion, Dokja must be a beta. He didnt even react to his pheromones. So he mustnt be able to feel them.

Yoo Joonghyuk was a quiet, somber drunk, Kim Dokja was rather affectionate in his own way. Subtle touches or just leaning his shoulder on the alpha. Now there was a scent from dokja, alcohol of course. But it was still intoxicating to Yoo Joonghyuk for some reason.. 

Finally Han Sooyoung approached. 

"Bastard, We're going *hic* home now"

Joonghyuk just stared, then looked at the 'beta', then back at sooyoung, who was grinning.

"Landed one? Eh? Isnt that Dokja-ya?"

The alpha raised his eyebrows, Dokja, hearing his name, lifted his head off Joonghyuk.

"The plagiariser!" Huh? They knew each other???

Then Sangah chirped up. "It is Dokja-ssi!"

"Sangah?"

"Hm! I didnt think id see you here" 

The two drunkards began conversing so Sooyoung placed herself next to the alpha.

"Thats Kim Dokja, our senior, he works with Sangah"

Yoo Joonghyuk nodded... he was older than him? He looks younger.. 

Finally, Sooyoung managed to drag her alpha away, leaving Dokja and Joonghyuk alone again. Dokja had somehow gotten even more drunk.

"Ive got to go home. Tell em your address ill book an uber..."

"M don wanna" Dokja's words slurred as he kept hold of the alpha. 

"Youre drunk."

"noooooo"

...."I am not bringing you to mine"

Opening his door, Yoo Joonghyuk dropped the beta onto the bed, his eyebrows furrowing. How annoying.. As a dominant alpha, he didnt stay drunk for long, and now he was sober, there was an intoxicated beta laying on his bed.. Dokja had refused to tell him his address and apparently Sangah or Sooyoung didnt know either.. What a secretive little shit. 

He stared down at the man who was apparently older, his eyes couldnt help but wander... he was pretty thin... Maybe not a beta? Hes too pretty. Recessive Omega? Recessives were notorious for not noticing Alpha scents....

Dokja began to stir. His eyes fluttering open only halfway, clearly sleepy. He fumbled to his hands and knees, reaching out to pull the alpha into bed. 

"Hyukiieeee"

Yoo Joonghyuks face hardened. Of course... He too wanted.... Im tired. Whatever.

The alpha let the man drag him into bed, something hed never usually tolerate... Yet... nothing happened.. It seemed all Dokja wanted was for Yoo Joonghyuk to just... Lay in bed... He was actually sleeping...

Wait. 

What was he expecting??!!

He turned to look at the sleeping senior... They were so close... Certainly.. No scent at all...

Joonghyuk grit his teeth and just closed his eyes. He wouldnt sleep tonight for sure.. 

.

Dokja laid with his face propped in his hands, his gaze locked on the sleeping Alpha. His finger gently traced his jawline..

'eyebrows seemingly drawn by a single, uninterrupted stroke of a famed artists brush:a nose and a chin shaped in perfect angles that defied attempts to measure them through mere devices of men; a pair of deep eyes seemingly carved out of a beautiful jewel containing all the misfortunes found in this world.'

Truly a Dominant Alpha, but even among the ones Dokja had seen, Joonghyuk was by far the best looking. If one wasnt attracted to him then something must be wrong. A sly smirk played on Dokja's lips. A soft [idk what, pls gimme ideas for their pheromones] scent began to envelop the room, it was subtle yet overpowering. Dokja did it on purpose. He was sure the dominant alpha would notice the new scent. Especially within his domain.  He made himself comfortable as he laid back down. Lets see how long this alpha takes to catch on.

Yoo Joonghyuk awakened not long after Dokja fell back asleep. Immediately he frowned. The was a new fragrance in his room. It was faint yet so very powerful, as if the person it came from wanted it to seem like it was hidden but didnt actually care. He sat up. This smell was definitely pheromones... Yet it belonged to neither an omega nor an alpha... It was honestly... So intoxicating.. Really Joonghyuk should be trying to get rid of it immediately, he should feel disgusted by the fact someone has invaded his space... But it just smelled so good.. It soothed him. No... It was dominating him. Sharp eyes landed on the sleeping older man.... Was it dokja...? 

The alpha leaned down, pressing his face into Dokja's nape, a sensitive place for someone with a secondary gender.... It was so very meek, but it was indeed coming from him... He felt no repulsion... Rather he felt like submitting... Letting this smell devour him. It was strange. Then. It disappeared. As if it were never coming from him. It lingered in the air, but nothing could be smelled from Dokja again..

Yoo Joonghyuk felt... regretful... 

The mysterious man began to wake up, their eyes meeting. Neither of them said a word... An alpha was currently rather close to where scent glands should be on a sleeping person......

It was an awkward silence...

The door burst open, a small girl almost identical to the alpha stood with prowess.

"Oppa! Im hungry-........ "

An unfamilar scent was entangled with her brothers..........Her oppa... Was not only ,not alone... Not only had a man in his bed... but he was on top of said man with his head lowered into his neck......

"Oppa has a boyfriend???"

...Fuuuccckkkk
