[BL] Tired Of Living As An Omega

Chapter 108

The sun had set, and the appointed time for the invitation had arrived. On this particular day, the evening sky, tinged with red, felt unusually ominous.

'Has time really passed like this?'

"Just a little longer, and they'll come."

With each movement of the clock's hands, the tension grew. As the appointed time approached, the house became quieter, as if everyone shared similar sentiments.

'It feels strange to think he's really coming.'

As planned, I lay in bed in my room, pretending to be ill, and decided to hide in a suitable place to watch Moon Kyung-sik.

"Just make sure to cater to Moon Kyung-sik's tastes until the 'evidence' is captured, and then apprehend him at that moment."

"...Are you sure about this? What if you get hurt in the process...?"

Baek Do-jun extended his arm towards me with trembling eyes but withdrew it immediately. He knew I disliked unwanted contact.

Looking at Baek Do-jun wearing a pink checkered apron, I thought,

'Why do I like this guy?'

The other guys were the same. They all had the façade of being called Seong Chan-young, but why was it that Seong Chan-young was not accepted, yet they could like me? Was it because of the difference in circumstances?

Even if I were my true self, could these guys still say they liked me?

"Why are you thinking like that? Are you nervous?"

I noticed the worried gaze in his affectionate eyes.

"No, it's not like that."

I focused on the plan, pushing aside any distracting thoughts. The plan was simple. It was based on the assumption that Moon Kyung-sik was indeed Seong Chan-young, and me to act as bait.

'If he is the real Seong Chan-young, he'll try to harm me in some way.'

Baek Do-jun, Yoo Yi-seo, Chae Yoon-chan, and Joo Tae-kang had their own lingering regrets, separate from my goal. They wouldn't be oblivious to my efforts to capture Moon Kyung-sik. Though they might not know the exact methods, if the nightmares from the Black Hand were indeed related to the real Seong Chan-young, Moon Kyung-sik would try to kill me.

'Stealing heat inhibitors was another reckless move in a similar vein.'

It was unsettling how this person, who was so fixated on the original gongs, made such bold decisions, as if they knew me well.

'If I hadn't found the hidden suppressants, I would have quickly formed a bond with an alpha, and the embarrassment from that shock would have rendered me helpless. I might have even driven away all the original gongs, seeking shelter under President Seong's power, unable to bear seeing them.'

'In the worst-case scenario, I might have even taken my own life.'

In that case, I would have been left alone. That's probably what the real Seong Chan-young wanted. Creating an environment where he could easily kill the unlucky guy who took over his body, and the alphas he still hadn't given up on would drift away from me.

'Usually, in these situations, they believe that killing the fake can bring back the real one.'

The real Seong Chan-young must have entered my house, the tiger's den, with only that goal in mind.
