Chapter 22 The truth will tirelessly mark again and again
In the forbidden room, the ventilation system that dilutes Alph starts to work, emitting white noise that can help people relax.
Other than that, there was no sound.
It was so quiet, so quiet that Ji He could clearly feel his own heartbeat getting faster and faster.
When Colonel Huo sensed the scent of cypress on the other person, his expression suddenly changed.
If it was just a normal contact, it would be normal for Beta to pick up a little bit of the other person's scent, but the person in front of him at this moment exuded a strong S-level Alph scent from the inside out.
This clearly goes beyond the normal level of contact.
"Colonel, I am..."
While Ji He was thinking about how to explain, he took two steps back with a guilty conscience.
Beta was wearing a very ordinary military uniform, a gray-green long-sleeved shirt with the top button fastened.
Huo Yubai didn't want to listen to this man's excuses anymore, he wanted to see the truth with his own eyes.
Before Ji He could finish his words, he was thrown onto the bed and laid on his back in the place where they had been entangled day and night.
"Colonel, don't..."
Ji He felt ashamed and embarrassed, and subconsciously pursed his lips, afraid that the other party would discover the truth that he had successfully passed the susceptible period.
The lips were bright red and seemed a little swollen than usual.
He put his hands to cover his face, trying to distance himself from the Alpha who was leaning over.
However, Colonel Huo sat astride Ji He's waist, holding his left shoulder with one hand and holding the arm he used to shield his face with the other hand.
The power contrast between the two was already huge, not to mention that the other party was determined to know the truth.
Ji He was restrained tightly, and he watched helplessly as Huo Yubai tore off his gray-green shirt, his expression becoming one of pain and despair.
His judgment finally came.
The buttons broke and flew into the air, revealing a large area of snow-white skin and crisscrossed red marks on the upper body that was originally fully covered.
Ji He closed his eyes in embarrassment, his chest rising and falling unconsciously, and complex emotions surged like a tide, drowning him.
"This……"
Huo Yubai was pinching the other person's collar, obviously shocked by the scene before him. He stood there motionless.
Going down the neck, there are several purple kiss marks on Beta's collarbone, and there are red marks from kneading on the chest under the thin muscles. At the waist, the red marks from loving caressing are crisscrossed into a network.
Ji He was picked up by someone. It was the first time that the other person was so close to Ji He while he was awake, in order to confirm the wound on the back of his neck.
The bite marks on Beta's neck were even more severe, with coagulated blood stuck near the wound, and it looked like it was bitten more than once or twice.
"Is it me?"
Ji He bit her lip and remained silent, without crying or feeling wronged, as if her soul had been taken away.
Alpha cannot get real release during the susceptible period, and will tirelessly mark over and over again until the surging emotions in the body gradually subside.
Colonel Huo could never have imagined that the bastard Alpha he had always been ashamed of was actually himself.
Memories of the past and overlooked details suddenly become clear and vivid.
Huo Yubai remembered that the other party had occasionally asked for leave during his susceptible periods, remembered the slender neck covered with a sterile dressing, and remembered Ji He's expression when he last asked about the Alpha.
What did he do?
Colonel Huo wanted to confirm if Ji He had any other injuries on his body, so he pulled out the belt from the man's waist and put his hand on the upper edge of his pants.
"No, let me go..."
At this moment, Ji He immediately struggled, supporting himself on the bed with one hand and pushing Alpha's chest with the other hand.
This time was originally reserved for Ji He to deal with the marks on his body. He should have left quietly and pretended nothing had happened as he did before.
Based on the real-time detection data, Ascle pushed the medical cart outside and heard a lot of noise inside, as if there was a fight.
He was afraid something might happen, so he pushed the door open in a hurry.
The Alpha Colonel, who usually had a cold face towards others, was grabbing the collar of his Beta subordinate and it looked like he was kissing him.
Sergeant Ji showed half of his shoulder and was trying to push away Colonel Huo who was sitting astride his waist.
Did he open it the wrong way?
Ascle whispered, "It's not convenient for me to stay here. I'm leaving now."
Ji He did not respond to him. Instead, Colonel Huo, who was probably in a state of confusion, turned around and looked at him.
Those were a pair of pitch-black pupils, looking sharply at Ascle, with a hint of unconscious possessiveness.
"I want to ask you something."
His eyes were clear and his tone was deep.
Ascle thought to himself that something was wrong, his face suddenly changed, and goose bumps appeared on his arms.
The medical cart's wheels scraped across the ground, making an ear-piercing noise.
“Why is this happening?”
"Is this your first time here?"
Ascle subconsciously turned his head and looked away. After a long silence, he said softly, "Sergeant Ji, we really can't fool you this time."
Ji He turned his head away without answering, and Colonel Huo obviously did not expect him to be honest.
"From the time you, Colonel, developed pheromone disorder until now."
Always? Until now?
When Colonel Huo heard Askler's answer, his first reaction was that he thought the other party was lying and he couldn't believe it at all.
How is that possible?
Being kept in the dark was not a pleasant experience. Colonel Huo continued to ask, "What are you going to do?"
"Ascle, what have you and Ji He hidden from me?"
Colonel Huo was unconsciously irritated as he spoke. He hated the feeling of weightlessness that was out of his control, and was even more angry at how he could have done such a stupid thing.
"Tell me everything from beginning to end."
Ascle did not move. He stood at the door pushing the medical cart, with an embarrassed expression on his face.
After being silent for a long time, Ji He finally spoke and said, "I asked him to do it. I begged the doctor not to tell anyone."
The originally clear and cold voice became a little hoarse, sounding like a pipa with broken strings.
"Colonel, you are in your first susceptible period after contracting pheromone disorder. We can't get close to you."
"Only Sergeant Ji can get close to you, but for some reason your pheromones identify him as an Omega..."
Ascle did not explain it clearly. He thought the colonel should know what happened in the content he omitted.
Huo Yubai frowned slightly and said, "So, what I saw was not an illusion."
The doctor looked up at Ji He and found that his eyelashes were drooping and his face was pale. He didn't know when he had put on his coat loosely to cover the marks.
Ascles thought that he should give the two people time to digest the situation, so he quietly left.
The air was filled with the faint scent of intense love. The two people who had been so close to each other an hour ago were now very far apart.
For the first time, Ji He realized that staying with the colonel could be so difficult and heavy.
Colonel Huo standing by was also feeling bad. The sarcasm and ridicule directed at Ji He was like a boomerang that pierced into his flesh and blood, and would break his bones if it was pulled out.
A few days ago, he thought Ji He was frivolous and casual, but today he found out that he was the culprit of all this.
Nothing could be more ridiculous than this.
Even though it was hard to accept at first, Colonel Huo still said, "I'm sorry."
He still had some doubts in his heart, so he cleared his throat and continued to ask, "You could have refused the second time, why didn't you refuse?"
After he finished speaking, he raised his eyes.
After confirming the truth, Colonel Huo paid serious attention to his subordinates for the first time.
She was white, skinny, with a slim waist and long legs, sure. Besides being a real Beta, she was very close to the Omega in his dreams.
But Huo Yubai really didn't understand why Ji He was willing to make such a great sacrifice and willingly become his medicine.
"I……"
"Ji He, I'm only asking you this time."
"If there is something you want, I can give it to you."
Ji He raised his eyes slightly, his eyes flashing, and then lowered his head again.
"Colonel, what does this mean?"
Huo Yubai was thinking about what the other party would want most. From his personal perspective, Ji He's situation in the Federal Military was awkward.
If he wants to climb higher, it's not impossible for him to do it, it just takes some time.
"Would you like a higher rank? Staff Sergeant or Master Sergeant?"
Ji He's expression changed drastically, as if he had been slapped hard in the face by these words, and he was completely stunned.
"Colonel, do you think that's why I'm like this?"
Huo Yubai looked at his subordinate who looked sad, and felt a little regretful. He asked softly, "Why did you do this?"
"Because... because..." Ji He's voice became tense and his whole body trembled slightly unconsciously. It was difficult for him to express the love that had been buried deep in his heart for many years in such a scene.
Alpha moved closer to him and asked again: "Why?"
"Because I like you."
The expression on his face was tangled and awkward, more bitter than a smiling face, more painful than a crying face. He was clearly sincere, but he had to pretend that nothing had happened.
Huo Yubai took a deep breath, and the memory of asking Ji He about that Alpha suddenly came back to him.
He originally thought that those answers were made up by Ji He to appease him, but now it seems that something is not right.
Are they all true?
"You said you liked me for many years, right?"
"yes."
"Since you were in military school?"
Ji He wanted to say it earlier, so he moved his lips and replied "yes".
As an S-class Alpha and the youngest commander in the Federation, it was not surprising that Huo Yubai had a few people who admired him, but Ji He was the first one to be so persistent.
While Colonel Huo was thinking, Ji He suddenly stood up and said, "Colonel, after you got pheromone disorder, you don't remember what happened during each susceptible period."
"Um."
Although he didn't know what Ji He would say next, Huo Yubai always felt that it was not what he wanted to hear.
"I like you, that's my own business. And in order to satisfy my own selfish desires, I took advantage of your forgetfulness and concealed the truth."
"sorry."
For the first time in his life, Huo Yubai felt a tightness in his chest when he heard someone apologize, and his breath was stuck in his throat, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.
“Is this a problem that can be solved by an apology?”
"Or do you think I won't be responsible for you?"
