DESTINED MATE : SWEET ALPHA PHEROMONE
Chapter 55

Chapter 55: Chapter 55

Ian did not allow me to go directly to see Gruvv that night, he said he had to discuss with the doctors so as not to cause bigger problems. The air conditioner that was so cold and the room door that had an outer layer also prevented Gruvv’s pheromones from going into my room.

They were trying not to get me into HEAT again, because like Gruvv it would be much more dangerous for me to experience HEAT and take suppressants.

I cried for so long that my eyes hurt, Ian said goodbye after explaining things to me. He said he’ll be back this morning.

That night, I was alone in my room, staring at the moon from the window.

I never thought I would meet someone who suffered the same pain as me. He who looked strong and reliable had a cruel and painful past. What Ian said about Gruvv made me emotional, we were two people who were both traumatized by pheromones.

It would be better if we could be reborn, we are gonna be just two BETA who met each other. I don’t care if I have to work as hard as I do and don’t get recognized in society as a BETA.

Having pheromones gives me a hard time.

I slept well that night, the crying made me tired.

In the morning I met with the doctor, Ian came to see me too. They discussed whether I could go to Gruvv’s room. Andrew and Elina came afterward.

"Shiloh is doing well, he has been undergoing therapy for the past two weeks and is making progress. For me, he can see Mr. Gruvv." The older doctor spoke as he flipped through the file in his hand.

"Since the last HEAT didn’t have any serious problems, I think he can give it a try. But I will wait outside and if anything happens I will bring Mr. Shiloh back down." Elina said.

They were talking seriously while I sat in the wheelchair, clutching the blanket that covered my lap. Andrew touched my shoulder and I turned my head, looking up to see him.

"You look much better." He said with a smile.

I nodded quietly.

"That blanket, can you smell Gruvv’s pheromones?" He smiled widely while pointing at the blanket I was holding.

I frowned and turned back to him after looking at the blanket.

"You didn’t notice? This room is full of Gruvv’s pheromone scent, you can’t even smell mine and that doctor’s pheromones, right?" He pointed at the old doctor holding the file.

I paused. True, Andrew was an Alpha and I didn’t react to him.

"We kept some of Gruvv’s clothes in this room, letting his pheromones fill the room. I hope you can be much more better, Shiloh, I hope your body no longer rejects the smell of other Alphas’ pheromones."

I lowered my head with a smile.

Somehow I believe I can do that if I’m with Gruvv, I believe I can go through all the pain and hardship.

"Shiloh, are you ready?" Ian’s voice brought me back to my senses, I looked up and stared at him then nodded.

As explained, they will take me to the same floor as Gruvv first. If my body doesn’t react within five minutes, Ian will take me into the room.

"Gruvv just finished RUT for the umpteenth time yesterday. Maybe the pheromone smell is still a little intense, but I hope it doesn’t bother you." Ian explained, as he pushed my wheelchair into the elevator.

I didn’t feel any fear or hesitation. I just wanted to meet Gruvv.

We got out of the elevator and I stayed in the corner with Ian, he sat next to my wheelchair. I could feel the scent of Gruvv’s pheromones that were so thick, the scent was so strong.

"Tangerine scent..." I said.

Ian turned his eyes to me.

"Is that the scent you smell on Gruvv?" He asked with a big smile and I nodded slowly.

"I don’t smell it that way, Elina said the characteristic of destined mates is that they smell each other’s pheromones differently than the second gender..."

I turned to him, looking into those shady eyes that looked hopeful at me.

"Gruvv’s pheromones smell like tangerine drizzled with honey when he is experiencing RUT." I said to Ian, explaining how the smell filled the room when he was having RUT. Between the stench of blood and the dampness of the room I could smell the sweet scent of his pheromones. Ian chuckled hearing my explanation.

"Did you smell something sweet in that scary situation? That’s kinda funny. But, are you wondering what kind of scent Gruvv can smell on you?" He asked.

I quickly averted my gaze and looked down. That’s right, I never knew that Gruvv couldn’t smell pheromones. All this time I thought it was because I was in the transition period of becoming an Omega Recessive that no pheromone scent came out.

Ah, he’ll smell my pheromones too.....

"I smell the scent of flowers from you, but I don’t know what it is. All I know is that you smell so soft." Ian smiled widely saying that.

There hasn’t been a single person who explained how my pheromones smelled, after I found out that I was an Omega, my life was already too messy. Hearing Ian say that, I blushed.

I had only been there for a short while when the door to Gruvv’s room suddenly opened, Ian immediately stood up in surprise. We both turned our heads together towards the door, I could feel the tension from Ian. What’s wrong?

The smell of Gruvv’s pheromones was much thicker than usual, it was so piercing yet it didn’t affect me at all. I could feel Ian’s pheromones smelling full of worry, my hand reached for his hand. I held that hand gently.

"It’s okay." I said with a smile, I got off the wheelchair slowly. Ian held my hand nervously.

"Are you sure, Shiloh?" He looked at me. I nodded.

I could feel Gruvv’s pheromone smell getting stronger, so I slowly approached the room. The tangerine smell that I had missed, the tangerine smell that had accompanied me for several months and I had lost it when Madam Rose kidnapped me. I can smell the scent again.

My feet stepped closer and closer to the door.

When I arrived at the door, the man I missed was standing there. He looked so shocked, his face tense. He was wearing hospital pajamas, his face looked a little pale, he had been through a lot in the past month. We’ve been apart for so long. That big body seemed to be trembling and his breathing sounded so heavy, those beautiful eyes looked at me so deeply that I felt goosebumps all over my body.

"Gruvv.." I called him.

"Why are you here? You can’t be here."

His voice sounded shaky, I got closer to him and he stepped back. I was a little surprised but then I chuckled.

"You don’t want to see me?" I asked, trying to tease him.

"Shiloh, I’m not yet stable..."

I looked at him, I could feel all the emotions from his pheromones. I then slowly released my pheromones, I could see him flinch at the smell of my pheromones. He again went backward.

"Shiloh.."

"Can you smell it now? My pheromones?"

Gruvv’s eyes rounded, I could read them like a book. He looks so transparent, since when? Did I just realize it or has he been like that for so long?

"It’s...I..."

"I know, Ian told me everything, Gruvv." I said.

Gruvv sat on the bed with his head down, "I had no intention of hiding it from you..."

I moved closer to him, now I could see the top of his head. He was so tall when he stood up.

"I can see the top of your head." I said.

He hurriedly looked up and his face turned red, I saw that and chuckled.

"Gruvv, what do you smell from my pheromone scent?"

He looked at me, such a deep gaze. He didn’t answer me right away, the silence was so long in the room, I could smell our pheromones mixing together. Such a sweet scent.

"Flower..." He said, his hand reaching for mine, his fingers playing with mine. "You smell like honeysuckle...You smell so sweet Shiloh..."

My eyes rounded and my eyebrows both raised, I could feel my lips lifting at his answer. "How could you possibly pick one flower so accurately?" I asked him.

I chuckled for a while before stopping as Gruvv just silently looked at me. His eyes radiated worry and relief at the same time. Fingers are now tightly holding both my hands.

"Hey, I’m sorry I didn’t go save you sooner... You got hurt again because of me." He said softly.

Our eyes met.

"Gruvv, thank you for saving me." I whisper.

I tried not to cry in front of him, but the look in his eyes made me unable to hold back all my emotions. I could feel him pulling my hand gently, I was pulled forward, his face was so close and our lips met.
