Intoxicated Chapter 1

A young man wrapped in cold moisture pushed open the door. The cold mechanical female voice of the welcome sensor sounded along with the patter of the rain: “Welcome to—”

“Hello.” The girl behind the counter put down her phone when she heard the sound, she raised her head and was slightly startled.

The man who entered the door had slightly wet hair, slightly long bangs on his forehead, and a thin layer of cold sweat on his forehead— perhaps it was raindrops— but judging from his expression, she guessed that it was sweat.

There was an unnatural flush on his cheeks, but his lips were as white as paper, and he nearly slammed himself into the counter.

The girl was scared and startled: “What medicine do you need?”

The man’s breath was weak: “Hello, please give me an omega inhibitor spray.”

“……What?” She didn’t hear clearly, or to be precise, she didn’t understand.

The man’s hand knuckles on the glass cabinet turned white due to his force. His light brown eyes looked as if filled with thick mist, and somewhat unfocused. He repeated in a raspy voice: “Special Inhibitor for Omega.”

“Elznsxl vs—”

The door was pushed open again.

The visitor put the umbrella on the umbrella rack at the door. When he turned around, he noticed the young man with his head down walking towards the door. He turned and looked at the glass door beside him, he paused and waited for the person to be near, then he moved slightly in front of the young man, and staggered.

The man didn’t notice. He was caught off guard and bumped into the other person’s arms, and his body swayed slightly. The man in front of him raised his hand and held him by the side waist to block his fall. The powerful arm half-circled his waist, and the voice in his eardrum was low: “Be careful.”

The other person was tall and upright, with a slight chill in his ironed black coat. The young man’s burning hot forehead knocked against the other party’s clavicle. The man carried the cold moisture of the rainy night, and a very light woody aroma penetrated the young man’s nose.

—An alpha?

He clung to the other person’s arms to stand firm with difficulty. Out of courtesy, the palm of the other person was placed behind him and it seemed hot. It was continuously transmitting temperature to his back, which caused him to tremble uncontrollably. For a split second, his chaotic mind almost gave birth to an idea— he tried to rely on the smallest amount of pheromone of the strange man in front of him to alleviate his current situation that was on the verge of losing control.

However, the man in front of him was too stingy. He hid his pheromone tightly and refused to release a bit of it.

Lian Jue lowered his eyes and looked at the hand grasping his arm, and frowned slightly. When he retracted his gaze, his gaze accidentally swept across the young man’s pale ears and saw a small dark red mole. His gaze stayed there for a moment out of curiosity, but he quickly retracted his arm and calmly retreated to open a distance between them.

“Are you okay?”

The young man in front of him had his eyes lowered, the fingers that fell on his side turned paler, and he nodded his head absent-mindedly. His thick black eyelashes slightly concealed his eyes. His eyes glanced towards the sliding door behind Lian Jue’s back that was marked with ‘Broken, Don’t Push’ and hurriedly said thank you. Then he quickly disappeared into the dark and foggy rain through the door that Lian Jue kindly opened for him.

The glass sliding door isolated the sound of rain outside, and the fog blurred the neon lights outside the glass door into a fuzzy light and shadow.

Lian Jue came over, and the girl behind the counter still stretched out her neck and looked out.

“What’s wrong with that man?” He casually asked.

“I don’t know……but he looked very uncomfortable.” She retracted her gaze and saw Lian Jue pick up a bottle of hawthorn pills from the shelf near the cashier. She helplessly said, “Mr.Lian, no matter how delicious the hawthorn pills are, they still contain medicinal drug ingredients, and can’t be eaten as snacks.”

“I know.” Lian Jue smiled faintly.

He took out his mobile phone from his pocket and didn’t bother to look at it. A lot of messages popped up on WeChat. He clicked on the voice message, and a childish voice came from his mobile phone.

“Are you on your way back? Did you buy hawthorn balls?”

“I got a full score in both tests today. Did the teacher tell you?”

“My aunt said yesterday that she would buy me a pizza if I got 100 points in the mid-term exam, but she forgot it.”

Lian Jue patiently listened to the other party talk about trivial things, he held the voice message button, and said, “Didn’t you have a stomachache after eating too much dinner? And you still want pizza.”

The other party quickly sent a reply: “… I lied. Actually, I don’t have a stomach ache. I just want to eat Hawthorn balls.”

Lian Jue decided not to reply and put the phone back in his pocket.

The girl smiled when she heard this, “It’s normal for children to lie when they’re a little greedy. Don’t be angry.”

“I’m not angry. If I don’t know how to distinguish right from wrong at this age, it will be very troublesome in the future.” Lian Jue handed her the things in his hand.

She laughed dryly, then she picked up the bottle of hawthorn pills, scanned the code to pay the bill, and talked with him casually, “Mr. Lian, I remember you seem to be making medical equipment?”

“En.”

“Have you heard of any ‘omega’ inhibitors?”

“Omega inhibitor?” Lian Jue raised his eyes. “No. What’s the matter?”

“The man that just came in said he wanted to buy some ‘omega’ inhibitors. She took the bag and helped Lian Jue pack the hawthorn pills, “Is it an imported medicine? The name is strange, and I asked him what it is used to treat for and so on, but he didn’t say……”

“Just drank too much.” Lian Jue took the bag, “His whole body smelled full of wine.”

“Really?” She frowned, and sniffed in the air, “No, why didn’t I smell it just now?”

When Lian Jue picked up his umbrella and was about to leave, he paused, and asked in a gentle tone, “Is there a pizza shop nearby?”

“Yes, go out and go to the right. There’s one across the street, just right across the intersection. However, there is probably a queue for that shop.”

“Thank you.”

“A sharp mouth yet a soft heart.” She looked at the back of the man who left, she smiled helplessly, and softly sighed, “It’s such a pity to marry at a young age.”

The man supported himself on the counter, with a little pleading in his hoarse voice, and repeated: “Can you open a room for me?”

The girl at the hotel front desk looked at the man in an abnormal mental state opposite the counter and quickly pushed back the card handed by the other party: “Sorry, Sir. It’s been strictly checked recently, and you can’t open a room and stay without your ID card. You can go to another place to check.”

The man pushed the card back: “This is my ID card…”

“The girl was a little impatient, frowned, and said in a bad tone: “You can’t stay. Just leave, leave.”After the man retracted the card with a pale face and turned to leave, the girl complained to the colleague next to her: “Do you know what is written on his ID card? Gender, omega! I’m really speechless. I’m even being scammed, even those who commit forgery nowadays deceive others too much ba…”

Someone nearby lowered his voice and whispered: “This person doesn’t look right. Is he probably taking drugs? Shall we call the police……”

“Don’t meddle in other people’s business.”

The fine and soft drizzle hit his face, dark spots appeared on the man’s white shirt and started to spread and slowly connect into large wet marks. The wet clothes outlined his lean and slender body figure. The wet and cold clothes aroused goosebumps on his skin. He felt coldness on his skin, but he felt as if he was boiling over inside his body.

The contradictory sensations tormented his mind and body. Every time he took a breath, there was a hot and pungent scent of wine. The rich and mellow aroma of fruit wine swept along the fishy humid smell of rain, which made his mind dizzy.

The surviving trace of will in his mind warned him that an Omega who was in estrus should not walk around outside.

The neon lights and shadows became indistinguishable in his blurred vision. He squinted his eyes, struggling to see clearly, then he saw the words ‘express hotel’ and across the street.

The pizza shop was really famous. Even though it was still raining outside, there was a line of people who went to buy pizza which started from the door of the shop to the corner of the intersection.

Lian Jue walked back with the packed box. There were many people at night, and it was difficult to find a parking space in the downtown area. His car was parked a little far, and he needed to cross a road and walk a short distance.

Just as when he approached the intersection, the traffic lights changed from green to red. Lian Jue stood by the roadside with an umbrella and looked in a trance at the cars in front of him moving slowly due to heavy traffic.

In the last three seconds before the end of the red light, Lian Jue was a little distracted and caught a glimpse of a man staggering towards the road. At the same time, several cars hurriedly took advantage of this gap in time to rush over as if they were zebras crossing.

Even before Lian Jue could speak, his body moved before his reason. Before he could completely come back to his senses, he had subconsciously reached out to catch the man who nearly crossed into the traffic.

The car driver passing by was obviously frightened. The driver slammed on the brakes, lowered the car window, and shouted at the man in a fit of rage:

“Look at where you’re going!”

The hot hand-tossed pizza was overturned on the ground, and the shrimps with stretchy cheese rolled twice by the wet road, and the rich aroma of fruit wine diffused from the person in his arms.

It was him.

Lian Jue’s gaze moved down from the small dark red mole on his ear tips to the dazzling thin and pale arms under his cuff. Lian Jue straightened him up. The man’s body was on the verge of collapse, he was so thin as if the rain could melt him, but his strength was not small.

“What’s the matter with you?”

A low voice sounded on the top of the young man’s hair, and the strange but familiar woody fragrance gently enveloped him.

It was the Alpha just now.

He didn’t know why the other party’s pheromone couldn’t appease him. Maybe the other party’s pheromone was too restrained, or the matching degree between them was too low— but his legs were too soft to stand.

The young man raised his moistened eyes, his slender willow eyes and tail were haloed with thin crimson, and his voice trembled as he grabbed the Alpha’s arm like a life-saving straw.

“……please, help me.”
