To The Dazzling You

Chapter 22

Sunoo opened his eyes and blinked against the dim light that was falling into the room through the curtains.

It wasn't too bright yet, but it was enough to have pulled the omega from his slumber.

He turned to his left and buried his face in Sunghoon's shirt-clad chest.

It had been only a few days that they had slept apart from each other, but Sunoo had felt the loss infinitely.

Waking up next to his alpha had become such an important thing to him, he never wanted to miss it again.

Sunghoon automatically put his arm tightly around the younger, keeping him safe in his arms. The omega let out a satisfied sigh, as he closed his eyes again.

A blissful shudder ran through his body, signaling him that he was where he belonged.

His thoughts wandered back to the events of the previous day, and while he knew that they had both made decisions that would come with consequences, the knowledge that they had each other, and that they loved each other, made everything worth it.

Sunoo knew that they weren't living in some drama world where their fathers could keep them apart or harm them physically. However, they would for sure use some other ways to make them both crawl back to their families. And Sunoo loved his family. But he also loved Sunghoon, and he did not understand why he couldn't have both.
In the end, his family made him choose, and he chose the one that he believed would stay by his side - hopefully forever.

Sunghoon stirred and turned towards Sunoo, so that his nose was now fully buried in Sunghoon's chest and the alpha's nose was grazing his hair.

"What goes on in that pretty head of yours, babe?"

The alpha whispered in a voice that was still hoarse from sleep. Another shudder rushed through the omega's veins from hearing this alluring tone.

He pressed a kiss to the shirt, feeling sorry that the fabric was there in the first place.

Sunghoon hummed, still waiting for an answer.

"I'm just so happy you're here," the omega whispered, pushing his head up and burying his nose in the alpha's scent gland.

"Me, too, pretty. Me, too."

They stayed like this for another hour or so, before mother nature pulled Sunoo out of the bed so that he could relieve his bladder.

When the omega came back into the bedroom, Sunghoon wasn't in bed anymore.

He found him in the kitchen, putting cereal into two bowls and pouring milk over it.

Sunoo's heart skipped a beat as he watched Sunghoon take care of him. Those were the little actions that made one feel loved and appreciated.

Especially in a society where it was common for the omega to do everything, from cooking to taking care of the alpha.

The omega stepped closer, cuddling against Sunghoon's back.

"Good morning, pretty. Have you slept well?"

Sunghoon turned around and Sunoo immediately cuddled up to him, enjoying the alpha's strong arms around his frame.

"Mhm...I sleep much better when you're with me."

Sunghoon chuckled.

"Me, too, pretty."

A soft kiss was pressed to Sunoo's hair before Sunghoon pushed him away a little, but only to put a bowl with cereals in his hand and pull him towards the bar stools to eat their breakfast.
