Beta's Fragrance [ MxM ]

24

I WAS TOLD before, that there's a bond between an Alpha and an Omega that can be possible.

Marking, and mating.

An Alpha would bite the nape of 'their' own Omega to bonded them. Just simple as that.

Well, not totally simple. It was for a lifetime. A marked Omega cannot be with another Alpha aside from the one who marked them. There's an only one person that could satisfy and owned them as whole.

And likewise.

Isn't it a pity? Being forced to be with and tied down to just a single person as long as you live.

And as what I've read somewhere, only death could break that bond.

That's why they always say that if you're an Omega, who wanted to have a peaceful life with your own family in the future, you must find your own Alpha and form a bond with them.

An Alpha that could give you that kind of life. The one that would accept you as their lifetime mate.

The one who would love you truly, and likewise.

Love. It's an exaggerating word. It can only apply in fiction.

I just can't understand why people still believe in that.

"... That would be Php 450.25."

After handing their receipt, and the customer left.

I sighed. I'm not handling the deliveries anymore. Boss told me that it much more easier for me if I was here in the counter.

But having to face customers for the whole day is much more tiring though.

"You'd been sighing alot." It was Boss who commented. He came back after checking the storage.

I did? "Just.."

"Tired? Go and rest for awhile then." Again with this. He's treating me like a kid. I sighed.

" 'Just thinking about something." It's been days after that day. But I was still left dumbfounded by Riss.

"School?"

"... No."

"... Work?"

"... No."

"That's unusual." He sounds confused. "Thinking about something else while working."

He said that, but, "You look.. happy." Why's that?

He chuckles. "As I said, it's unusual. So? Wanna tell to this oldman about it? I'm all ears."

Should I tell him? What words should I even say anyway.

Well, he's married. So he might can help me with this. "I was told.. that I'm in love with someone." There's no point lying here. "Ofcourse I'm not. But I couldn't deny it that time." I sighed. "I don't do such things."

I thought he would be shocked because I'm talking about some unusual things again, but his face didn't change a bit. "So it was someone.."

I shook my head. "It was by accident. Just unconsciously thought about him. That's all." Why's it so hard to explain my side.

"Kid." He called me out. "It's fine. I understand."

He do? "Boss-"

"But let me tell you something. It's normal to feel that way. No need to get confused over it."

What? But, "I told you, Boss, I'm not. Rather than that, I hated that person the most-"

"Kid, we all have different views in terms of that word. May I know what's yours?" He cutted me off again.

I frowned. Different? Is that even possible.

He's asking me if what is it for me, right? "I don't know." I don't even want to feel it. "It's complicated."

He smiled, making me confused. "Indeed. It's complicated." He agreed. "So don't push yourself too hard. Let yourself waits and yearns for it. You might enjoy it through the process."

Enjoy?

A customer enters the shop. Boss turned his back. "Don't think about it too much. It's your working time afterall." He waves his hand. "Well, goodluck."

"Can I have some.."

Those words, are different from Riss's, but still same at some point.

It's really.. complicated, huh.

TOMORROW CAME AND I'm already working at the bar. As usual, alot of people are already here.

Not thinking too hard about some stuffs, I can still work fine.

But for today, Mikhel is not here. Uncle said he caught a cold for an unknown reason.

"That dumbass. Leaving alot of works here as he please. I'll beat him." Uncle rants while making some cocktails. Glenh, who's beside him 'helps making the other orders.

He looks stressed, but still doing fine I guess.

"Your fault. Stop relying too much on him. He can't be with you all the time."

It was a guy, sipping his drink on the counter. He looks young too.

"Renz!" Glenh called him out. He knew him?

"What?" This guy's kinda blunt.

We heard Uncle sighed. "I know. Thank you for the concern." It sounds sarcastic though.

"Poor Mikhel.."

"H-Hey Renz..!"

I sighed. I'll just leave them here. I have orders to serve.

Time passed. And the night's still long.

Customers come and go.

And just like last time, there's still no hint of him inside the place.
