Secretly Married to a Chaebol Alpha
Chapter 52: FLORAL SCENT

Chapter 52: FLORAL SCENT

SONG SIHYUK tasted blood in his mouth, and that annoyed the hell out of him.

However, since it was Seong Kyungmin who did that to him, he really couldn’t bring himself to punch his friend back.

I understand where this punk is coming from, but...

"Lim Garam knew that I wanted to turn him into an Omega, and he agreed," Song Sihyuk said. He was pissed that he had to explain himself when he hated doing that the most. But what could he do? Seong Kyungmin was a friend of his. "I didn’t deceive him— I’ve always been upfront with him regarding my little experiment. And this is a part of our deal, Seong Kyungmin. I didn’t force Lim Garam to marry me and give me the right to his body."

Seong Kyungmin scoffed. "Lim Garam was barely an adult back then— he didn’t think that far ahead because his goal back then was to survive. And you took advantage of that, Song Sihyuk. You gave the child an illusion of choice."

Haaah.

"I’m tired of having this conversation with you again and again, Seong Kyungmin," Song Sihyuk said, pulling out his phone from the inner pocket of his jacket. "You’re not the only pheromone doctor here. If you’re going to let your personal feelings get in the way of your work, then I’m taking Lim Garam to a different doctor."

"If you call the Cho Triplets, I’ll punch you again."

"Once is enough. I let it slide because you’re my friend. But if you try to punch me again, I’ll beat you half to death."

"Must you always be that violent?"

"Dude, you punched me first."

"Punching you isn’t considered violence— it’s called public service."

"Do you wanna die?"

Seong Kyungmin just sighed, and then he plopped back into his chair.

Ah, this means he’s going to stay as Lim Garam’s doctor.

Song Sihyuk was relieved.

Although he enjoyed hanging out with the Cho Triplets, he wouldn’t entrust Lim Garam to those bastards.

I can only trust Seong Kyungmin.

"The first aid kit is in that cabinet," Song Sihyuk said, pointing at the said cabinet. "Treat yourself."

"No, I’m going to use this to play the victim," Song Sihyuk said firmly. It wasn’t like he’d die from a small infection. "I’m showing Lim Garam this face so he’ll listen to me once I tell him not to trust you too much."

To be honest, Song Sihyuk didn’t like that Lim Garam didn’t call him first before he went to the hospital.

And it pissed him off that he had to hear about his wife’s condition from Seong Kyungmin.

I don’t want Lim Garam to trust Seong Kyungmin more than he trusts me.

"You’re really a scumbag, Song Sihyuk."

"Tell me something I don’t know," Song Sihyuk said, and then he sat on the receiving chair. "So, have you done the test to determine whether Lim Garam has really turned into an Omega or not?"

"Lim Garam isn’t in the right condition to take the test yet," Seong Kyungmin said while shaking his head. "He’s like a child who has just manifested as an Omega. Aside from the fact that he gets easily overwhelmed by other people’s pheromones, he also can’t control his pheromones yet."

Song Sihyuk clenched his hands tight in order to stop himself from getting too excited.

But it was hard to hold back.

Pheromones.

Lim Garam has finally produced pheromones, huh?

Seong Kyungmin, who could obviously smell Song Sihyuk’s pheromones, frowned. "I’m giving you a strong suppressant before I send you to Lim Garam’s room," the doctor said firmly. "You need to help the kid calm down, so you can’t lose control."

"Do you think this is my first time with an Omega?"

"Lim Garam is different from the Omegas you dated."

"How?"

"You actually like the kid."

Tsk.

I guess this is why this jerk is my friend— he knows me too well.

"And it seems like the kid likes you back," Seong Kyungmin said, sighing. "Lim Garam said only your pheromones smell good to him."

Oh.

Hearing that improved Song Sihyuk’s mood.

I can’t wait to see my brat.

***

THAT jerk did this on purpose, didn’t he?

Song Sihyuk was annoyed with Seong Kyungmin once again.

That doctor gave him a type of suppressant that practically numbed his sense of smell. He could barely smell pheromones now.

Did he seriously think I’d lose my senses because of an Omega’s pheromones?

He had only been with Omegas in the past, so he’d say he was already used to...

Hmm?

Song Sihyuk’s train of thought was completely cut off when he finally entered Lim Garam’s VIP Room in the hospital.

Oh.

This scent...

The room was filled with a floral scent.

To be honest, Song Sihyuk wasn’t big on floral scent— but this time, it was different. He actually liked how fresh and clean Lim Garam’s pheromones smelled like.

Yeah, the floral scent in the air belonged to his sleeping, adorable wife.

Lim Garam smells like baby powder...

His wife’s scent was a delicate balance of soft powdery notes, florals, and maybe a bit of citrus top notes.

The scent reminds me of three flowers: Roses, Jasmine, and Iris.

Crazy.

Lim Garam already smells fresh even without pheromones, but now...

Damn.

Song Sihyuk suddenly felt grateful towards Seong Kyungmin.

I would have lost my mind already if it weren’t for the suppressant that he gave me.

"Hyung...?"

Oh.

Song Sihyuk closed the door behind him and entered the room. "You’re awake?"

Lim Garam got up and nodded while rubbing his eyes with the back of his hand.

So freaking cute.

"Sihyuk Hyung, you smell good," Lim Garam said— now both eyes opened— while looking at Song Sihyuk with a beaming face. "Are these your pheromones? They smell like vanilla— sweet and creamy— with subtle spicy and woody undertones."

Heh.

It wasn’t the first time Song Sihyuk heard that he smelled good, but it meant a lot hearing it from Lim Garam.

We both like each other’s scent.

"You can finally smell my pheromones, brat," Song Sihyuk said, gently grabbing Lim Garam’s face. "Maybe you’ll like me a little now."

Lim Garam raised an eyebrow. "But I’ve always liked you, Hyung."

Hmm?

Is it because he’s sick? My wife is being honest today. How cute.

"Not in a romantic sense, though," Lim Garam said bluntly, crushing Song Sihyuk’s delusion right away. "I only like Hyung’s face, money, and body."

Oho?

"I’ve always known that you like my face and money. But I didn’t know you liked my body now," Song Sihyuk said teasingly. "Did you like what we did?"

It was meant as light teasing.

But Lim Garam’s pheromones suddenly ’exploded,’ his scent clinging to Song Sihyuk as if he were embracing him.

For an Alpha, it only meant one thing.

My Omega wants me.

Ah, dammit.

If Song Sihyuk didn’t take a strong suppressant, he might have jumped Lim Garam’s bones already.

Maybe he’d forgive Seong Kyungmin for punching him just for this.

My wife doesn’t know it yet, but an Alpha can tell that an Omega is aroused by just their pheromones.

"Hyung, what happened to your face?"

Hmm?

Song Sihyuk was surprised when Lim Garam suddenly grabbed him by the wrist and pulled him down until he was sitting next to him.

Of course, it was only possible because he allowed it.

Only my wife can manhandle me like this.

"You got into a fight?" Lim Garam asked worriedly, but he was also frowning. "Hyung, don’t you think you’re too old for a brawl?"

"Thirty isn’t old, and no, it wasn’t a brawl— just a fight with a friend."

"You fought with Dr. Seong?"

"How did you know it was him?"

"Dr. Seong is only your friend, Hyung."

"Yah."

"You didn’t beat Dr. Seong up, did you?"

Ah, Song Sihyuk didn’t like how Lim Garam looked worried about Seong Kyungmin.

Of course, he knew that the two had no inappropriate relationship.

However, Seong Kyungmin was still an Alpha like him, so...

"Hyung, your scent..." Lim Garam said in a voice full of disgust while covering his nose with his hands. "Why do your pheromones suddenly smell so bad?"

Ah, right.

Lim Garam doesn’t know yet that an angry Alpha’s pheromones stink, and it’s harmful to Omegas.

Tsk.

Song Sihyuk was still pissed, but he was more worried about Lim Garam than his own personal feelings.

My wife has just manifested, so I have to be extra careful.

"I’m sorry, Garam-ah," Song Sihyuk said, taking a deep breath. He was good at controlling his pheromones. Hence, he instantly calmed down. Plus, he wasn’t that jealous anyway since he knew Seong Kyungmin would rather die than get involved with a ’kid,’ especially if the said ’kid’ was his friend’s wife. "Is it better now?"

Lim Garam hesitated at first, but then he slowly removed his hands from his nose.

A few moments later, his adorable wife beamed again.

"Ah, it smells nice again," Lim Garam said cheerfully, and then he patted the space next to him. "Hyung, let’s cuddle."

Aigooya.

Song Sihyuk raised an eyebrow, but he didn’t say anything.

So, Lim Garam becomes honest and clingy when he’s sick, huh?

***

YEAH, I really like this brat.

That was Song Sihyuk’s thought while cuddling with Lim Garam on the bed.

His adorable wife was hugging him tightly, his face buried against his chest.

Lim Garam really likes my scent, huh?

After all, his adorable wife instantly fell asleep in his arms.

He’s burning up, but it’s normal for newly manifested Omegas to run a fever.

"Get well soon, Garam-ah," Song Sihyuk whispered, kissing Lim Garam on the forehead. "Once you’re better, we’re gonna try."

Try for a baby, of course.
