"Did you know that lions mate 500 times in a week?"
That was the first thing Grayson said upon seeing their faces. In short, it meant, 'You beasts' but Chase wasn't embarrassed, and Josh didn't think anything of it either. He was just busy eating the prepared meal.
Grayson had a bandage on one of his arms because he had cracked a bone trying to protect himself from Tommy's helmet. Josh then realized why he had looked down at his arms several times during the drive. After all, it was better to break his arm's than to get hit directly in the temple.
As soon as the rut was over, they had to take a quick shower and then get tested. After having their blood drawn and running some tests on a machine, they were finally able to head to a restaurant.
Waiting for them was a huge amount of food. There were so many dishes that one would get sick of them just by looking, but for Josh in that moment was a different story. He immediately sat down in his chair and started eating.
The dishes spread out on the table were more sumptuous than those at Thanksgiving. There Josh was, militantly shoving food into his mouth as if he was going to eat more than he would eat in his entire life.
He downed a bottle of milk on his own, downed half of a stuffed turkey, and devoured a giant apple pie. That wasn't all. He ate not only steak, but also a hamburger with five patties on a pork chop and a top of cheese, without stopping.
Chase, on the other hand, quickly put down his fork after finishing less than half of his meal. At first, he must have been hungry, so he ate quickly and quite a bit, but he was no match for Josh. Grayson and even Steward were shocked to see how much Josh ate.
"Have you ever participated in an eating contest?" Steward asked as he watched Josh eat a huge sausage-stuffed hot dog in just three bites.
Josh responded by briefly shaking his head. He had just finished emptying the milk and stretched out his hand to pour some juice. Grayson and Steward just looked at him with bored faces. Meanwhile, Chase had an extremely adorable smile on his face the whole time.
In the end, most of the food on the table ended up in Josh's stomach. Finally, seeing him leaning his upper body against the back of the chair as if satisfied, Grayson asked the question he had been holding back.
"Why didn't you go to a competition?" He seemed to be dying of curiosity about it.
Josh answered after wiping his mouth with a napkin. "There are a lot of people who eat as much as I do."
"No way."
Grayson and even Stewards shook their heads in denial, but Josh's thoughts remained unchanged. After filling their bellies, they checked the test results.
"Great," Steward quickly announced the results printed on a sheet of paper. "Very good."
The smile on his face was such that everyone could tell the result without having to be told that it was good. He then added a detailed explanation.
"The pheromones have stabilized, and the results of blood tests and other basic tests are all good. There are a few items that need to be examined closely, but you can rest assured about this."
Steward who spoke up to that point laughed mischievously.
"It's been worth your hard work for a few days, Mr. Bailey."
Josh said nothing and lifted his coffee to his mouth with a weary gesture. He didn't know how many days he's been rolling around in bed like that. The two had sex to death, kissed to death, and hugged to death. The amount of pheromones pouring out was so great that Josh often felt like he was suffocating. They repeated the actions every time they woke up. No, Chase barely slept. Every time Josh opened his eyes, Chase was ejaculating inside him, releasing an endless stream of pheromones.
By the time Chase's rut was finally over and he came to his senses, nearly a week had passed.
"By the way, Mr. Bailey's physical strength is truly incredible. Are all bodyguards like that?"
Looking over the test results, Steward was impressed once again. Josh answered casually.
"That's right, because you have to be strong to protect someone."
Everyone could tell who he was talking about without having to look at him. Chase, noticing the double meaning, pretended to drink coffee and hid his flushed cheeks. Steward continued speaking.
"We need to do more research on why the rut was this long. It'll be difficult if a problem arises again."
"If there are no problems during regular checkups, he won't do any more tests," Josh interrupted him harshly. Aside from being suspicious of Stewards, he also didn't like how Chase was treated like a lab rat. Steward seemed to have sensed that thought and smiled bitterly.
"After all, I am still a doctor. We don't do anything that would harm our patients. Well, I will admit that I made a wrong decision this time," he continued speaking calmly. "When Chase first stopped taking his medication, it might have been better to just stop and wait. I admit that, but even doctors don't always make the right choices."
Steward, who looked a little discouraged, quickly added with a smile.
"Still, I'm glad. The pheromones seem to match well."
Chase, who had been silent until then, opened his mouth.
"Of course, Joshua is my omega."
Everyone's eyes were focused on him. Steward looked astonished, Grayson looked dumbfounded, and Josh's ears burned with embarrassment. Only Chase was smiling brightly like never before. And that smile, of course, was directed at Josh.
***
After eating, they were taken to a different room than the one they had stayed in for a week.
"Now that room can't be used for a while," Steward just said that with a smile, but Josh felt like he could tell without having to hear the reason.
Although the rut was over, Chase ended up staying at the mansion for some time longer. That was due to Steward's recommendation to stay a few more days and wait since the rut was over. Josh also agreed.
"He's not trustworthy, but I don't think he's going to do any harm."
Once he was alone with Chase, Josh spoke honestly.
"It's true that the only person we can trust right now is Steward."
Seeing him shaking his head as if he had no choice, Chase opened his mouth.
"Joshua."
When he raised his head, he was already in front of Josh.
"Now it's just the two of us, are you going to keep talking about other things?"
Even after nearly a week of hugging and kissing, Chase still felt like it wasn't enough. Josh smiled silently and kissed him on the lips. Josh said, taking advantage of the moment when their lips separated.
"Next time, come say hello to my family."
"...Family? Why?" Chase blinked, puzzled at hearing it for the first time. Josh couldn't help but burst into laughter because he loved him like that.
"I need to tell them that you and I are getting married."
"...Do I have to tell my family before that I'm getting married?"
He thought he would be happy, but Chase's reaction was the opposite. Josh, who belatedly remembered Grayson's face, shook his head, saying no.
"Not really. If you don't like it, I don't have to meet them."
Only then did Chase look a little relieved. Josh added, looking down at him.
"It's just that mom and Emma often take care of Pete, so I think it's a good idea for you to greet them as his daddy."
At those words, Chase looked worried again.
"I want to meet your family," he continued speaking with a very reluctant expression. "But I hope you never meet my family."
"Then do it."
Josh readily accepted and kissed him on the lips. Chase put his arms around his waist and pulled him close. And while they were kissing, they retreated towards the connected bathroom. They barely managed to get beside the bathtub and had no choice but to take off their clothes.
"...Ouch."
The bathtub filled with water was large enough for two larger-than-average men to enter, but Josh felt uncomfortable elsewhere. Chase, who had reached into the bathtub first, stopped when he heard a small groan. Josh held up his hand as if he was okay and then got into the bathtub. He opened his mouth, leaving the words flowing naturally.
"You'll have to hold off on putting it in for a while."
The arm holding Josh temporarily stiffened. He couldn't have known his feelings, but he couldn't help but take this situation into consideration as well. The knotting that continued throughout the rut made his stomach hurt every time he moved. Josh endured the pain and spoke in a tired voice.
"Because sex isn't just about putting it in..."
He was about to offer to give him a blowjob, but Chase asked first.
"Are you talking about rubbing?"
"Rub? Where?"
As Josh asked curiously, Chase slid his hand between his buttocks and stroked his inner thigh.
"Here."
Where do you keep learning this stuff?
Josh looked at Chase, unable to hide his distorted face. There, waiting for him, was an angel-like face looking at him with an innocent expression. Josh felt another strong urge.
I want to lock him up so that only I can see him.
After staring at his face for a while, Josh looked away and answered before he committed the crime.
"I'll tell you later."
Chase looked disappointed, but he didn't ask any more questions and simply said "yes" and rested his forehead on Josh's shoulder.
For a while, he was relieving his fatigue by soaking in the warm water.
Ah, good. Josh closed his eyes in absolute peace.
"Joshua."
Breaking the silence, Chase called to him in a low voice. Instead of answering, he placed his hand on Chase's shoulder and stroked Chase's head, and he asked again.
"You can change what you do with me if it's hard."
He had no choice but to look back at him again, not knowing what he meant. Chase lifted his head and faced Josh with a serious look on his face. Only then did Josh realize what he meant.
"You want me to put it in you?"
Chase didn't answer, but it seemed like an affirmation. Josh stared at his face in silence for a moment. Numerous delusions and evil deeds poured into his head like a flood. Josh, who had been reviewing the thoughts that had passed through his mind one by one as only a minute passed, soon opened his mouth.
"There's a lot you can do even if you don't put it in."
For a moment, Chase paused. Seeing his expression harden, Josh let out a short sigh.
"Chase, let's admit it, I have more experience than you."
"..."
"Much more."
Chase hesitated before opening his mouth to Josh who nailed him once more.
"But, it hurts, right? Do you really like being sick?"
If you do that to that extent, anyone will be in pain there, Josh thought about it and answered with a straight face.
"I don't like being sick," he added quietly. "But I hate seeing you being sick even more."
Chase's eyes widened. Seeing the shaking eyes made Josh laugh again. He made a sound and kissed his lips before opening his mouth.
"There are a lot of things I haven't tried," Josh promised, still looking into Chase's eyes. "I'll do it all with you."
The surprised expression slowly disappeared, replaced by a bright smile. Chase lifted the corners of his mouth into a genuine smile and planted a kiss on Josh's face. Josh asked while their lips parted for a moment.
"Do you like it?"
"Yes," Chase answered calmly. His face was full of trust as he smiled at Josh. He loved his omega to the point of death.
Chase would go blank if he saw all the things that passed through my head, Josh thought to himself and whispered sweetly.
"Looking forward."
Instead of answering, Chase kissed him again. In the water, the two hugged each other and pressed their bare bodies against each other. He decided to rest for a while, but he couldn't help but feel excited again. Was this what soulmates were? Josh inadvertently turned his gaze to Chase's ears. The mark he made was clearly visible. Chase noticed his gaze and smiled.
"Now I can find you wherever you are."
And the only omega that Chase could find anytime, anywhere was Josh. Josh smiled and pressed their lips together.
"So do I."
Soon the kiss deepened, and as he parted his lips and stroked his tongue, Josh naturally spread his legs and climbed on top of Chase. As they gently rocked downward using buoyancy, their genitals rubbed against each other, making their bottoms heat up again.
...Oh?
Suddenly, Josh parted his lips and looked down due to a strange sensation. A semi-erect thick penis intertwined with his own in the clear water came into his field of vision. However, what Josh confirmed was not his belongings attached to Chase's body.
"...You've grown a lot."
Before he knew it, the place he thought was clean was covered with body hair like before. Chase also looked down and answered briefly, as if he was not interested. Josh opened his mouth, still not taking his eyes off his pubic hair.
"Wasn't it itchy while it was growing up?"
"...Was it like that?"
Chase trailed off as if he was trying to remember. Well, maybe it isn't the time to worry about this, Josh thought bitterly. When he thought of Chase coming to see Josh and ejaculating in pain due to itchiness, his lower part instantly hardened. Chase misunderstood that.
"Are you excited?"
"Yes," Josh answered honestly. When he found it difficult to look down, he opened his mouth to look at Chase's sweet face.
"Do you trust me, Chase?"
Chase paused for a moment. It was clear that he was reminiscing about his past memories. But the reason he didn't refuse right away was because he also remembered the excitement that came with the fear.
"Chase," Josh whispered sweetly. "How about trying it with whipped cream next time?"
He reached down and grabbed hold of Chase's heavy dick.
"Here, inside," Josh whispered lowly, as if tempting a child. "I'll suck you."
Chase stared blankly into Josh's face. The pheromone scent emanating from his own omega was tempting him in an extremely sexy way.
"...Okay."
Only after saying the words did Chase realize that he had agreed. He also realized at the same time that he had fallen for the same trick as last time, but it was already too late and Chase soon stopped caring. Josh opened his arms and Chase hugged him. Josh closed his eyes and thought.
What should I do next?
Josh couldn't help but smile as he recalled the delusions that filled his head.
For my alpha.
"Ha." A deep groan came out. Josh thought he had made the noise, but he was mistaken. When he saw Chase with a frown on his face, he soon realized the reason. The two were feeling the same emotions.
"Oh."
Before he had time to do anything, Chase suddenly stood up, holding Josh in his arms. Leaving behind the hot water splashing loudly and overflowing onto the floor, he quickly jumped over the bathtub, crossed the bathroom with long strides, and headed straight to the bed.
"..."
Chase put Josh down on the bed and climbed on top of him. Before Josh could say anything, Chase again interrupted him.
"I won't put it in."
"..."
"I'm just going to touch you, so let me do it," he said it as if it was a request, but it was nothing more than a notice. Soon, Chase buried his lips on Josh's wet chest and sucked loudly. Ugh, what should he do with the moan that came out spontaneously?
Without realizing it, Josh distorted his face.
He was in pain almost everywhere. Even a gentle brush hurt every part of his body, as if he'd been beaten, and no matter how carefully and gently Chase handled him, it wouldn't be much different. Moreover, the nipples in particular were so swollen that they looked like they were about to burst, so much so that even the slightest touch of air took his breath away.
The problem was that Chase loved his nipples too much. Even when his rut came and was completely unconscious, he persistently licked and bit his nipples, creating the current situation. But the bigger problem was that Josh liked it too.
"Ugh."
This time too, the moment Chase stuck out his long tongue and licked his nipple, he let out a painful groan and his still-stinging stomach began to heat up as usual.
"Ah," Josh sighed. Has he ever been this anxious? He tried to recall a memory but quickly put it away. Why did it matter whether that has ever happened or not? Right now was important.
The moment Chase grasped the round, swollen nipple with his teeth, Josh grabbed his head with a short scream. Chase lifted his head. He blinked his eyes with an innocent expression, as if he knew nothing about the reason that had caused Josh so much distress. The moment he saw Chase's face, Josh's worries disappeared.
"What?" Chase, who had silently followed the pointing finger, looked back at Josh and asked. Josh said, rubbing his eyes with his other hand as if he had given up.
"Tea table, get me the cigarettes from above."
As he said, there were cigarettes and a lighter on the table. The item that was dropped in Chase's room was placed there by an employee while moving rooms. Josh felt bitter as he was finally using what he had gotten from Steward just in case, and put the cigarettes Chase had brought him to his mouth.
"Wait a minute." After stopping Chase from climbing on top of him again, Josh lit a cigarette.
The nicotine he inhaled for the first time in a long time relieved the pain and at the same time gave him peace of mind. Chase waited patiently while he took a couple more puffs of smoke. The expression on his face showed that he was impatient to hold back from wanting to bite and touch Josh's body right away.
Josh, who had lit his cigarette halfway, finally opened his mouth. "Continue."
Then, holding a cigarette in one hand, he spread his thighs wide, exposing his crotch. As Chase's eyes widened in surprise, Josh took another puff of smoke and continued. "Come inside, what are you doing?"
At Josh's urging, Chase was about to attack him but stopped in his tracks.
"You said we shouldn't do it for a while, right?"
Josh frowned, lifted the cigarette from his lips, and said with half-confidence. "Forget about that. So, are you going to do it or not?"
Chase didn't answer. Instead, he chose to attack him. Chase overlapped his lips again and whispered between kisses. "I love you, Joshua."
Soon he moved his lips and buried his nose in Josh's neck. Even without taking medicine, he could barely feel the pheromone scent, which was so weak that Chase could feel it strong enough to be intoxicating. Because he had a mark.
A mark engraved by Josh.
Chase positioned himself between Josh's wide spread legs and grabbed his dick. When the heated tip was attached to the hole, the place that had been wide open all of a sudden opened its mouth as if it had been waiting. As soon as he secretly rubbed the tip, the wrinkles started squirming as if possessed and tried to eat him. Chase pushed his hips up, a moan coming from within his throat.
"...ha." A sigh of mixed pain and joy flowed from Josh's mouth. Even though his stomach felt like it was burning, he was so excited when Chase's penis entered him. Chase's eyes instantly turned black as he impatiently embraced the familiar penis and massaged its inner walls.
He realized too late that even though it wasn't a rut, he had lost his mind for a moment. The semen poured out without any room for control, filling Josh's insides.
He looked down and saw Josh breathing heavily, his hand holding his cigarette resting on the mattress. Chase tilted his head and kissed him on the lips. He felt the lips that touched each other smile. When he raised his head, Josh was looking at him with a faint smile.
Before he could even understand what he meant, he put a cigarette in his mouth, wrapped his arms around Chase's shoulders, and rolled away with them connected underneath.
"..."
When he came to his senses, his location had changed. Josh, who was on top of Chase, lifted himself up and exhaled the smoke from his cigarette.
"If you're going to do it, you have to do it in earnest."
After saying that, he held a cigarette in one hand and started shaking his butt gently on top of Chase. Even though he had just ejaculated, Chase's penis did not shrink but instead became hard again.
"Chase," Josh asked. "How many times do you want to do it today?"
Chase thought about those words for a moment. To be honest, can you do that much? As if he sensed what Chase was thinking, Josh answered first.
"Let's do it three times."
Making a unilateral decision, he put off his cigarette, even the filter of which had been burned, by rubbing it against the head of the bed and began hitting his waist in earnest. Chase couldn't hold back and screamed as he grabbed his lower body and rocked his waist and rubbed his butt noisily.
"Fuck, ah, Joshua, damn you!"
"You should use nice words, Chase."
His heavy breathing gave Josh a warning, but Chase didn't care and cursed again. And Josh punished him right away.
Suddenly, Josh lifted his hips and his heated penis fell out. Embarrassed, Chase looked up at him, blinking in surprise. Josh looked down at Chase, half-standing on top of him with his knees up, and opened his mouth as if wondering what was going on.
"I told you not to swear."
Chase's anger at having lost his warmth right before his eyes was immense. He immediately grabbed Josh's shoulders, knocked him down, and thrust his hard dick into him. But it didn't end there. Josh realized too late that he had made a mistake.
"Oh, wait, stop!"
"Oh...!"
He thought for a moment and tried to stop him, but it was already too late. Chase pushed his dick all the way to the base and filled the inside. A burning pain spread through his stomach like electricity, and for a moment, Josh's eyes turned black. Chase laughed at him through heavy breathing.
"Take it out again, if you can."
Of course it was impossible. As if that wasn't enough, Chase held Josh tightly in his arms and held him in place, moving only his waist to get in and out of him. Josh tried surrendering for the first time in his life as his back continued to ache while the end was fixed. But Chase was by no means an easy opponent.
"Did you say three times?" he sneered, still not stopping. "I haven't finished yet."
For a moment, Josh felt the color drain from his face and Chase fulfilled his criteria three times. When the penis pulled out from inside Josh once, Josh learned with his own body that it included knotting and that it did not include the number of ejaculations.
Josh learned a big lesson and that was not to easily provoke his own alpha.
