Chapter 74: End Of Filming

In the middle of Axel venting his jealousy to claim his Omega, Daren, a knock on the door interrupted them both.

Knock knock

"Daren, are you awake? I couldn’t sleep. Can we talk?" asked a man from outside Daren’s bedroom door.

’It’s Zach!’ Daren thought with surprise.

He then turned to Axel and looked at him pleading to be let go, considering Zach was out there. He didn’t want the Alpha to find out Axel’s whereabouts and get them both in trouble later.

"Please just this once, it’s already the fifth day. It’ll be over soon," he pleaded while whispering so Zach wouldn’t hear them.

Knock knock

"Daren?"

Seeing the situation, Axel was forced to let go of Daren and pull away. The blond-haired man gave his Alpha a brief hug, and promised to pay for everything during their vacation after the filming of the show was over.

"I’ll keep your promise, I won’t hold myself back for the umpteenth time later, do you understand?" Axel asked in a sharp and serious tone.

"Yes, I promise. Come on, leave now before i open the door!" Daren jumped off the bed and straightened his pajamas.

He made sure Axel had left his room and opened the door for Zach.

"Oh Zach, I was wearing my headset earlier, so I didn’t really hear it. You couldn’t sleep?"

"Yeah, I can’t sleep. Can we chat while we eat our snacks?" Zach asked, giving the code to relax on the sofa.

"Good idea, let’s have some snacks while relaxing on the sofa," said Daren, who accepted Zach’s code.

They both went to the living room with snacks from the fridge. Daren was still trying to act normal after he and Axel had almost done more in the room.

’If Zach hadn’t come, would Axel and I have mated earlier? I thought it was a good opportunity. But it’s dangerous if they smell Axel’s pheromones on me,’ Daren thought, still remembering how aggressive Axel had been.

He remembered how the Alpha’s lips touched his skin. It felt so warm and delicious to him. Daren knew that Axel must be a very aggressive Alpha, but he was still surprised how the man kissed his body earlier.

"Daren!" called Zach as he tapped the man’s shoulder rather hard, making him jump and look at him.

"Y-yes?!"

"You’ve been daydreaming, what’s wrong? Did something happen?" Zach asked worriedly.

He shook his head, saying everything was fine. He was just a little reminded of something. Zach immediately asked what Daren was thinking about, making Daren have to think fast to come up with an answer that might be good for the situation.

"I was thinking about our time here. It’s already the fifth day, two more days before we can go home. It must be a very different feeling going home," Daren replied as if he was going to miss Zach when this was all over.

At that, he smiled and held both of Daren’s hands. "I was thinking the same thing. I’m definitely going to miss you a lot, Daren. It’ll be different when we get home," he replied as he looked into the Omega’s eyes.

But his eyes were immediately drawn to something on Daren’s neck. A red mark on the man’s neck. He touched it, which made Daren flinch.

"Daren, why is there a red mark on your neck?" Zach asked.

"Huh? A red mark?" Daren touched his own neck and he remembered Axel had left a love mark on him.

’Damn, I forgot about this one. I thought he didn’t put love marks in visible places. How is this...’ he thought in confusion.

"Umn... I was bitten by an insect. I opened the window in my room and it seems like an insect got in and bit my neck. Because it was itchy, I scratched it," Daren explained trying not to make Zach suspicious of the mark on his neck.

"Really?" He approached Daren’s neck and looked at it closely.

Gasp

The blond Omega flinched slightly when he felt Zach’s breath on his neck. The breath was hot, sending chills down his spine.

"I just realized that your pheromones are very sweet, Daren. I’m telling the truth," the man whispered.

"S-stop it, Zach. You shouldn’t have gone this far. Isn’t this going too far?" said Daren in reply to his co-star’s whisper.

But he chuckled, saying that sometimes unexpected things could happen. And maybe what he was doing and saying to Daren was something that might be honest from her heart.

That made Daren even more worried, did Zach now like him for real and not for acting?

’Although his movements are natural because of his real feelings, but this is something that shouldn’t be happening,’ Daren thought as he closed his eyes.

"Do you like me too, Daren?" he said again in a whisper.

"I-I..."

Before he could answer, Zach pulled away and went back to acting.

"Do you want me to get some bug lotion? It looks so red," he asked.

"N-no need, I’ll be fine." He picked up the can of soda and drank it.

Trying to keep her distance from Zach because he didn’t want him to do anything weird later. He didn’t even know what the brunette Alpha was planning to do this time.

Over the last few days of the television show, Zach had become increasingly attentive to Daren and treated him specially. Even Daren didn’t know if it was an act or Zach’s true feelings.

It was enough to make him uncomfortable that he didn’t keep his word.

"Daren, what are you making, hmn?" The man suddenly hugged him from behind while Daren was making instant noodles.

His body jerked in surprise, and he reflexively turned his head. "M-making noodles, you surprised me, Zach."

"Ahaha... Sorry. I just wanted to spend my time with you before everything was over," he replied happily.

But certainly not with the Omega itself.

’If I tell Axel about this, he’ll be furious. But if I don’t tell him, it’s pretty obvious, isn’t it?" he thought at the time.

Since it was the last day, Chen and Ruby came back for the questioning session. They were both asked about their feelings of being there, the experiences they had and the memorable moments they had together in the house.

He and Zach were asked to answer some questions with the same answer to make it look intimate and romantic. And that’s when Ruby threw out one last question that was out of the scenario.

"Did you two end up having feelings for each other? Do you want to do this challenge again next time?" she asked.

Zach nodded, "I think I’d do it again if it was with Daren. He’s a fun partner, nice and sweet too. I’m really happy to be his partner this time. I love it when we laugh together and spend time together," he explained.

They then turned to Daren and waited for his response.

"What do you think, Daren?"
