Hi beautiful people,
Be sure to read the note at the end, it is important for the story. Pictures of the chapter show the inside of the apothecary.
Enjoy!
General Pov.
"And omegas to bout." Ming says looking surprised and not quite believing his own nose as he picks up the faint sugary and floral scents coming from the two males.
'No mistake and yet what a strange sight.' He thinks as he sees the smaller of the two brandishing his sword in a threatening manner. 'What a cute angry little omega!'
"Stay back!" Kit growls at the unknown young man.
"Gan..." Beam whispers low enough not to be heard by the alpha. "We have more important matter than to pick a fight with the first alpha who brushes you in the wrong way."
"I am not looking for a fight...I am like you, trying to avoid the palace guards." Ming explains with an amicable smile.
Both omegas glance at each other, a silent conversation going between them then they face the alpha who was watching them with amusement.
"And why would you?" Beam asks suspiciously.
"I should ask you this question!" It earns him two sets of eyes glaring holes. "Alright, alright! Let's help each other? I help you to leave the red-light district and in exchange, I will go my merry way, okay?"
"What kind of weird proposition is that?" Kit scolds him, his unsheathed sword still in front of him.
"Listen, I don't want to hurt any of you. I am looking for my friend and if he is found here well...It won't be good for either of us." Ming falls silent when he hears the voices of the several soldiers filtering through the front door.
The three of them and the shop keeper hides behind shelves, praying to any gods that the soldiers won't be too zealous and try to break inside to make a thorough search.
To their relief, another one calls them. They all heave a collective sigh.
"So? Still want my help or not?" The alpha asks them.
"Young masters apothecaries, I think it is wise to accept this young man's offer." The old shop keeper tells them before Kit can say anything.
"What?!"
"He is right, Gan. We can't endanger this man, better leave with him." Beam tells him then he faces the young alpha. "We are coming with you...but you better not pull any strange tricks otherwise Gan won't hesitate to end you where you stand."
Ming frowns, slightly amused and intrigued to hear an omega threatening him as if two omegas even male ones could pose a somewhat danger to him.
'Definitely strange omegas.'
"I promise on the Kuto kingdom, I will never harm any of you. If I dare then Seiryu's heavenly beast can devour me where I stand." He swears solemnly. "Good enough for you two?"
Both omegas stare at him for a long moment before they exchange a glance then they nod their approval to the shop owner's relief.
"This way if you may." The older man indicates with his outstretched arm to a well-concealed door.
They walk through the door, finding themselves outside in an inner court. It is closed by a tall wall, hiding them from prying eyes. On the farthest side of the wall, a wooden ladder is resting against it.
