Chapter 66: Entwined

The lights were beautiful, and the night was equally enchanting. When the environment reached a certain aesthetic level, people are always stirred by desires deep within their bodies.

Ji Chenxi pulled Chi Zhuo closer and left a gentle kiss on his lips.

He loved tenderness and beauty; even a kiss should be filled with aesthetics, while Chi Zhuo's kisses were always aggressive, as if he wanted to swallow Ji Chenxi whole, like a famished wolf.

Aggression, dominance, taking the lead.

Ji Chenxi demonstrated the process of shifting from active to passive and then reclaiming the initiative, as the spicy, heated aroma of alcohol collided with the seemingly pure but actually overwhelming scent of roses, creating a density that made alphas feel a sense of danger and discomfort.

The overpowering pheromones made Ji Chenxi frown slightly, yet he felt even more excited.

As an alpha, Ji Chenxi didn't reject pheromones from his kind; the aversion alphas had to other alphas' pheromones was instinctual and hard to change. His double S rank only allowed him to be more indifferent to alpha pheromones.

He didn't like pheromones from his own kind, and he even had some inner resentment. Yet perhaps because he liked Chi Zhuo at this moment, even Chi Zhuo's spicy pheromones became a different kind of experience for him.

Human perception is truly remarkable.

If Ji Chenxi's attitude towards Chi Zhuo's pheromones could be described as transitioning from dislike to acceptance, then Chi Zhuo's feelings had completely shifted from disgust to near craving.

His fingers pressed slightly against the fragile curve of Chi Zhuo's neck. During the kisses, a thought emerged in Ji Chenxi's mind—was Chi Zhuo's obsession with him driven by a desire for these pheromones?

Just like between an alpha and an omega, there's no concept of "liking" between two completely unfamiliar AOs. However, highly compatible pheromones can make them crave each other's scent, leading them to unconsciously chase after and be attracted to one another, mistakenly believing they have feelings.

Ji Chenxi was an extremely confident person; he shouldn't doubt his charm. Yet, the more confident and proud a person is, the more suspicious they can become when they like someone, often amplifying many things in their mind.

A slight sting ran through his lips, a lingering pain from a gentle bite.

Ji Chenxi chuckled softly, while Chi Zhuo, with a serious look, lightly bit Ji Chenxi again, as if to remind him not to zone out.

The deep and alluring blue light cast everything in a dangerous and hazy glow, and Chi Zhuo's tenderness was palpable. Even the mark of his bite was just a gentle nibble on Ji Chenxi's lips.

"Chi Zhuo, I'm feeling a bit unhappy right now," Ji Chenxi said softly, caressing Chi Zhuo. His fingers, with their distinct joints, glided from Chi Zhuo's neck to the back of his head—lightly, almost weightlessly. But if he wanted, it wouldn't be difficult to crush someone's skull.

"Did I bite you too hard?"

Chi Zhuo had barely used any force; it wouldn't break the skin, and the bite marks would soon fade away.

Ji Chenxi shook his head. "No."

Though he said he was unhappy, the smile at the corner of his lips was even more enchanting than when he claimed to be happy. He leaned in, almost like lovers whispering, and asked, "Do you like my pheromones? Do you want to mark me?"
