PERILOUS INSTINCTS | an omegaverse parody

TEN

You paced towards the auditorium in a state of daze & stupefaction, your thoughts muddled with consternation and uneasiness eating you from within. Your steps which were previously fast paced were now replaced by a slow one — almost as if you were wandering rather than walking. But you couldn't help it.

Because yes. Things were in a state of shambles.

The incident on the way with Sakato was a page turner. A gigantic one at that.

Apart from the hate and trouble he had been bestowing you with, his words didn't make sense. Nor did his actions because from how he conversed and chatted, he looked heartbroken — but also perturbed. But not for Arata, for you. His concern was directed at you.

And it had made you question almost everything because so far you had been thinking you were the most hated person person on earth. By Sakato. But this demeanor didn't point it out anymore.

Did he finally understand his resentment towards you was useless or something else was going on behind the scene? Or was it that he never bullied you because of jealously to begin with? Jealously because of the affection that Arata had for you but because of something else?

Now that you think about it... Sakato did sound familiar. His name always did. But you could never figure out the manhwa or novel he was a character in having ditched reading manhwas and novels once you turned into a full fledged adult. You definitely hated your poor memory while getting enacted with the worldly stuff of your original world.

It was challenging. Figuring it out wasn't an easy job especially in a modern setting where so much more was possible. And literally every male lead had blonde and blue eyes or black and blue eyes. Okay BUT WHICH?! there were tons of people with similar features. It was hard to figure out god dammit and to make things worse, Arata wasn't the only popular guy to exist. There were others as well. So whenever you thought about the ML, golden hairs and blue eyes — BUT WHICH ONE? Plus, who had the remember to remember every single plot goddam?!

It was a tough world.

By now, you had already reached the auditorium. The path had ended but not the apprehension of Sakato's words. Nevertheless, it was better off to put it behind for now.

"Dai? " You called out, pushing othe double doored auditorium's right side. It creaked eerily. It was dark inside, with no one around. It made you question if the students were even present inside "Hello? " Your voice echoed in the surrounding. You stepped in and it was dark aside from the light that came in from the ventilation windows.

It was now you missed your phone. The urge to switch on your phone was so huge but that was the reason you were here in the first place.

To get your phone.

You fully entered inside and roamed, waited around for a couple of minutes. "Tch, is he not here yet? Or Aoi was pranking me? Good for nothing bastards." You grumbled, finally deciding to leave. You stepped closer to the double doors, about to leave when....

When you heard something.

"Is that my phone? " The corner of the room lit up and it was then you spotted Dai with a deadpan looking at you. A normal person would have rushed by his side to collect their belonging.

But you didn't. You panicked instead.

Because that look.....it wasn't a look someone would give while returning a phone.

And you were right because right then the doors slammed shut, leaving the auditorium in complete darkness. You turned around, angry at the setting. "Why the hell are you—"
