Chapter 33.1

Things that I obtained (1)

My family was all restless.

But, the most restless one of all of them was definitely me.

It has been almost five minutes since I got a message from Yuugo saying that he’d be here in about five minutes. In other words, it wouldn’t be weird for the intercom to ring any moment now.

Ever since I got the message, I’ve been pacing back and forth between the front door and the living room like a restless dog. My little brother, Mei, was looking at me with a dumbfounded expression, but I didn’t have time to care about that.

After all, Yuugo would arrive soon.

He’d come to greet my family—.

“…Ahh, I’m so nervous.”

“I get it, but you really need to calm down.”

That’s impossible.

I glanced at the phone in my hand while still standing.

Six minutes have passed. I think he’ll arrive soon.

My feet started to head down the corridor on their own again. Suddenly, I felt a strange sensation.

This is—.

“He’s here, it’s Yuugo.”

“…Huh?”

A moment later, the intercom rang.

The whole family who had heard my words earlier looked at me with a surprised expression.

“How did you know that? That’s cool…”

Mei muttered quietly from behind me.

The whole family came out to greet him.

After confirming that everyone was present, my dad opened the door. I could see Yuugo standing in front of the gate.

He was wearing a suit. The last time I saw him with his hair properly slicked to the back in person was since the time we met at the bookstore.

He looked like a different person from the Yuugo with a casual look that I knew well. My heart jumped wildly at the sight of it.

This… might be too much for me.

Dad stepped out of the door and welcomed Yuugo on behalf of the family. I could see the two of them talking in front of the gate.

“…The real person looks so powerful.”

“Oh gosh. He looks like some kind of royalty.”

Mom and Mei were whispering to each other so Yuugo couldn’t hear it. My sister also nodded her head in agreement with them, but I couldn’t join their conversation.

Yuugo’s scent drifted softly on the wind. I hadn’t smelled the scent of my pair in a few days, and it made me feel lightheaded.

When Yuugo and dad walked this way, my consciousness was blurred by his scent that was getting stronger and stronger.

It seemed like Yuugo was greeting my family. My family also said something in reply.

But, I couldn’t clearly understand what was being said. I could hear their voices, but I didn’t have any idea what they were saying.

I approached Yuugo and grabbed his arm tightly.

“…Sou?”

It’s been a long time since I’ve heard Yuugo’s voice in person, and my feelings were about to burst. But, I was in front of my family now. I couldn’t do anything weird.

With the last ounce of reasoning that I can muster, I tried to suppress my instincts that were about to run rampant. However, I couldn’t seem to let go of his arm that I grabbed.

“—Yuugo.”

I didn’t know what I wanted to do.

But, I just couldn’t help but feel restless and impatient. I looked up at Yuugo’s face as if asking for help.

Yuugo smiled softly at me.

He turned his gaze to my family while holding my shoulder.

“Excuse me. Could we have our own private time for a moment?”

“…Umm?”

“Yes, we don’t mind. We’ll be waiting in the living room.”

My mom was confused, but it was my sister who firmly replied back.

She left me and Yuugo at the entrance door and took the rest of the family to the living room.

“Sou. I missed you.”

Yuugo hugged me tightly the moment we became alone in the room. The fabric of his luxurious-looking suit touched my skin. I was completely wrapped up in his arms.

I inhaled Yuugo’s scent from up close and the last of my reasoning melted away.

“…Yuugo. Come with me to my room.”

That was what my instincts wanted.

I took Yuugo to my room on the second floor.

I pulled Yuugo’s arm and led him to the bed at the far end of the room.

“Sit here.”

I made Yuugo sit on the bed.

Seeing my pair in my own bed, I finally calmed down.

Yuugo stretched his arms towards me. When I leaned my body closer, he held me by my sides with both arms and made me sit on top of his lap. He wrapped his hands around my waist.

Then, he placed his lips on mine.

“…mn”

We intertwined our tongues and exchanged our saliva.

I slid my hand down Yuugo’s body as if to make sure of his presence. The warmth that I could feel from the place where I touched him felt pleasant.

I’ve always wanted to touch him like this. I could feel my desire being fulfilled little by little as I felt the warmth and scent of my pair.

After a while, we parted our lips and hugged each other tightly again. I leaned my face close to Yuugo’s neck.

My head finally became clearer there.

“…I’m turning weird again.”

After coming to my senses, I realized what I’ve done.

It was the same as last time, I became weird.

Even though he came here to greet my family, I end up bringing him to my room the first thing.

“It wasn’t weird. It was cute.”

“…But I was in front of my family.”

“That was the response of your omega instincts.”

“That was… my instincts?”

“That’s right. You don’t have to think of it as something weird. Looks like your sister knew about it. Maybe Dr. Kazuki told her about it.”

“…Ah, so that’s why she did that.”

So that was why my sister was quick to respond. The rest of the family seemed to be completely confused.

I wonder if Dr. Kazuki had expected that I’d become like this. That in itself made me feel embarrassed, though.

“—By the way, the act of omega inviting alpha to their room is called ‘courtship’.”

“Huh…”

“It was so unbearably cute that you wanted me so much, even by your instincts.”

I was so embarrassed that I couldn’t bring myself to lift my face for a while.
