Secretly Married to a Chaebol Alpha
Chapter 53: A LATE BLOOMER

Chapter 53: A LATE BLOOMER

WHEN Garam woke up after a long nap, he could immediately tell that he had gotten better.

After all, he got a little annoyed when he woke up in Song Sihyuk’s arms.

Like a clingy lover.

Tsk.

I must have been out of it because of my fever.

But, to be fair, it wasn’t that bad waking up next to a handsome Alpha.

Who smells really good, at that.

So, much to Garam’s chagrin, he found himself hugging Song Sihyuk tighter— he wanted to get closer to his contract husband physically because he wanted to bask in his scent more.

All of this is mine.

"Babe, don’t squeeze me too tightly— I’m barely holding back here."

Ahem.

Song Sihyuk still had his eyes closed, but the Alpha obviously knew what was going on.

He’s probably awake for quite some time now.

It was pretty embarrassing that Garam got caught sniffing Song Sihyuk like a pervert, so he quickly changed the topic.

"Hyung, I’m hungry."

Song Sihyuk immediately opened his eyes and asked, "What do you want to eat?"

"Uh, Ceasar salad?"

"Are you crazy? You’re sick and all you want to eat is salad?"

"Uhm, then some unseasoned chicken breast?"

"Yah."

"It’s healthy, so what’s wrong with it?"

"You’re on a diet, aren’t you?"

Garam avoided Song Sihyuk’s judgmental eyes. "I’m starting my activities next week, so I need to be fit."

"You’re already fit," Song Sihyuk said in a scolding tone. "You’re sick, so you should eat something that will help you recover fast. Let’s ask Seong Kyungmin what you should be eating in the meantime."

"But you just fought with Dr. Song..."

"It’s fine. We always fight anyway."

"Does he always punch you whenever you fight?"

"No. We just pissed off each other a little bit too much this time."

"Then did you punch him back?"

"Seong Kyungmin will die if I punch him," Song Sihyuk said, scoffing. "And stop worrying about that jerk. I get annoyed when you mention another Alpha."

Aigoo.

So, this is the infamous Alpha possessiveness and jealousy.

Lim Garam was a Beta, but even Betas were aware that Alphas were very territorial and obsessive over their lovers— especially if they were Omegas.

Speaking of which...

"Hyung, have I really become an Omega now?"

"We’ll now for sure once you take the test," Song Sihyuk said, then he gently grabbed Garam’s face. "But I’m confident that, yes, you have finally become my Omega, Lim Garam."

Oh.

Garam thought he was already prepared to be an Omega because that was the deal that he made with Song Sihyuk five years ago.

So, why do I suddenly feel scared?

***

"THE RESULT is out— Lim Garam has really manifested as an Omega."

Song Sihyuk wasn’t surprised to hear that, but he was glad that it had finally been confirmed.

Lim Garam took the test earlier after his fever decreased significantly.

His adorable wife was asleep now, so Song Sihyuk received the result of the test.

He had the right to know because he was Lim Garam’s husband and legal guardian. Moreover, his adorable wife gave him permission to receive the test result in his place.

Anyway, my little experiment is a success.

And that got him thinking.

"None of the Betas who have been taking the miracle pills longer than Lim Garam did have manifested as an Omega yet," Song Sihyuk said. "So, do you know why Lim Garam is the only one who succeeded so far?"

"I have a hunch."

"Tell me."

"Answer this first: have you done any form of sexual act with Lim Garam recently?"

Song Sihyuk knew that Seong Kyungmin was asking that as a doctor, so he didn’t mind answering. "Yes, but we didn’t go all the way."

"But you both ejaculated?"

"Of course."

"I’m not involved with the experiment, so take this with a grain of salt," Seong Kyungmin warned him. "I believe that Lim Garam’s change was triggered by your pheromones, Sihyuk-ah. An Alpha’s pheromones are especially stronger in their semen, so the more you perform sexual acts with Lim Garam, the quicker his transition would be."

"Wait, what?" Song Sihyuk’s brows furrowed. "Are you saying Lim Garam isn’t completely an Omega yet?"

"The last stage is the trickiest part of his transition, Sihyuk-ah."

"I don’t understand."

"Sihyuk-ah, male Omegas can get pregnant and give birth," Seong Kyungmin reminded him. "But Lim Garam’s womb has just started developing."

Oh, right.

That exactly what differs male Omegas from male Betas— they have a womb.

"How long before Lim Garam’s womb developed fully?"

"I’m not sure, but it won’t take long," Seong Kyungmin answered. "Sihyuk-ah, do you remember the first result of Lim Garam’s Secondary Gender test?"

"Yeah. His doctor couldn’t determine whether he was a Beta or an Omega, but they labeled Lim Garam as a Beta because his pheromones were too dormant and low for him to be an Omega."

"Correct. I believe Lim Garam’s body has always been both a Beta and an Omega, but thanks to your pheromones, his Omega side has become more pronounced," Seong Kyungmin said, and then he hesitated before he continued: "I don’t want to say this, but I think Lim Garam’s transition would be complete once you have sex with him— once you ejaculate inside him, to be precise."

Heh.

That was the requirement for Lim Garam to finish his transition fast?

Song Sihyuk couldn’t help but smile triumphantly.

I just need to convince Lim Garam to allow me not to use a condom once we do the deed.

***

"I’M NOT sure if I should congratulate you, but you’ve become an Omega now, Lim Garam-ssi."

Oh.

Garam wouldn’t say that he was surprised to hear the result of his test from Dr. Seong Kyungmin.

After all, Song Sihyuk was confident that he was already an Omega now.

And Sihyuk Hyung is rarely wrong.

"Thank you, Dr. Seong," Garam said, forcing himself to smile. "Where is Sihyuk Hyung?"

"He just stepped out to answer a business call."

Oh.

For some reason, Garam felt relieved.

I don’t want Sihyuk Hyung to see my reaction.

Because he wasn’t happy.

And that made him feel like a fool.

"Garam-ssi, I can tell that you’re not happy with the news."

"That can’t be, Doc," Garam said while forcing himself to smile again. "I knew what I was getting into when I accepted the deal with Sihyuk Hyung and married him. Being an Omega is the price I have to pay for the easy life that I’ve been enjoying until now."

He could be this honest with Dr. Seong Kyungmin becaue he knew the doctor was aware of his deal with Song Sihyuk.

Dr. Seong also knows that my marriage with Sihyuk Hyung is only a contract marriage.

"I’m not going to regret the decision that I made five years ago."

"Why not? You’re allowed to regret your decision," Dr. Seong Kyungmin said bluntly, now using a tone that an adult would use when scolding a child. "You were young and dumb back then, Lim Garam— so, it’s okay to admit that you made a stupid mistake."

Oh.

Garam flinched, his heart unwavering suddenly.

Did I really make a bad decision back then?
