06. Wonwoo

It had been good. It had been so, so good. At twenty-four, it was far from my first heat, and I'd had an alpha take me through all but one of those—one of the perks of my dads owning and operating an ESA service. But it had never felt as good as it had with Mingyu, even though he'd been wearing a condom.

I wanted to chalk it up to coincidence, but the quiet nagging in the back of my head wouldn't let me. There could be a reason why heat sex with Mingyu had blown my mind and left me feeling like a quivering puddle of lust. There could be a reason his scent was so overpowering to me, and why I kept thinking I heard him say something. But it was almost unheard of. We'd just met, after all. It usually took years before a relationship hit that point.

Unless....

The room was dark, Mingyu's knot had gone down, and he'd pulled out and cleaned up by the time I woke from my heat-exhaustion nap. Mingyu still spooned me, and the way our bodies touched in so many ways felt fantastic. As soon as sleep fully left me, I groaned and stretched in Mingyu's embrace, then twisted so that I faced him.

Mingyu had been asleep as well, but he woke when I turned. A lazy smile spread across his face even before he opened his eyes as I wrapped himself around his large solid body. God, it felt good! I was already hard again, and I could feel another heat wave building in my core.

"I'd say good morning, but I don't think it's anywhere close to morning yet," Mingyu said in his deep bass voice.

I lifted myself up to look past him at the clock on the bedside table. "It's not even midnight," I said.

Which probably meant not everyone on the rest of the mountain had gone to sleep yet.

"I have to call my dads to let them know I'm alright," I said, flinching as though I would sit and roll out of bed, but really not wanting to.

My body felt rubbery and used, and a little bit sore. There was an obvious reason for that, of course. I closed my eyes and let out a breath as I remembered how good the first heat wave had been. It didn't matter how many times I taught about how amazing it felt to have a dick pounding away in an omega's breeding passage, actually experiencing it was out of this world. No wonder some omegas took drugs or resorted to dangerous toys to open that passage when they weren't in heat just to feel it.

"Do you want me to go grab your phone from the living room?" Mingyu asked with a laugh.

I opened my eyes to find him grinning down at me. Fuck, he was gorgeous. That wasn't just the hormones and heat haze talking either. Kim Mingyu was objectively handsome. His eyes sparkled, and his chiseled face screamed alpha virility.

Well, I knew first-hand how virile he was now. And it would be even better without a condom.

That thought had me sucking in a breath as I remembered another detail from our mating. He'd breached my womb. On the very first try, during the very first heat wave, the head of his cock had penetrated the ring of muscle guarding my womb. Holy fuck. In all of my previous heats, that had only happened to me one time, and only then during the strongest heat wave. I'd been with a trusted friend for that heat three years ago.

Omega wombs only opened up like that when the alpha involved was deeply, deeply compatible with the omega. Rumor was that a full-body orgasm—like the one I'd had that made me delirious with pleasure—only happened if the alpha and omega were a bonded pair.

But instant pair-bonding was considered a bit of a fairy tale these days. Dad and Papa were pair-bonded, but they'd been together for thirty-five years.

I'd met Mingyu less than twenty-four hours before. It was impossible that we'd pair-bonded after one heat wave...with a condom.

"I'll get your phone," Mingyu said, laughing even harder, as he pulled away from me and climbed out of bed. "You're still too heat-drunk to think straight."
