Lin Ai was only 19 years old when he met Marcus, in the fall of his first year at the University of Edinburgh.

He doesn't have many friends, he is too tall and conspicuous among Omega groups, and too pale and slender among Alphas.

I always eat and read alone alone.

It was an unremarkable evening, and the students of the Cultural Institute were still rehearsing the play "The Odyssey", which happened to happen when Odysseus passed through the island of Aiai on his way home, and met the frightening goddess Kale carve.

Lin Ai was temporarily assigned to be in charge of the violin part of the opera. He lowered his head and hid behind the crow-colored curtain. Only those on the left side of the stage could see him completely.

When he sang that Odysseus finally passed through the underworld from which no one could return, and arrived at his hometown, he couldn't help but pursed his lips and smiled sweetly.

It was a very small gesture, but it fell into the eyes of Marcus in the audience.

He gestured for a pause, asking everyone to take a break first, but he walked around behind the curtain by himself.

Lin Ai rubbed her sore shoulders, turned around, and slammed into Marcus's arms.

The man was wearing a retro court shirt with lace folds on the neckline and cuffs. His legs were tall and slender in long riding boots, and his waist and shoulders were in perfect proportion.

His pupils are light in color, the bridge of his nose is straight, his jaw and jaw are smooth and graceful, his long chestnut hair is fluffy and slightly curled, loosely tied behind his head, and his beautiful and delicate facial features make Lin Ai temporarily |sex| lose his mind.

"Sorry, I've been distracted." The man's amber eyes looked at him gently, his thin lips parted slightly, "I can't take eyes off you, can you tell me your name?"

"Allen...Freshman." He whispered back, the bewildered and well-behaved look on his face moved Marcus, and since then, Lin Ai has often been caught to help out in the theater troupe.

There are various reasons for asking him to come, either a classmate is sick or temporarily going out to ask for leave.

Marcus, who has been managing the theater on campus, also gradually became familiar with him. After learning that Lin Ai likes to write an English translation, Marcus was very interested and often reviewed his manuscripts himself, pointing out some grammatical problems in his translation.

As time passed, the friendship between the two became deeper and deeper. Lin Ai didn't like the Omega dormitory building of the college, which was always backlit, dark and humid, so Marcus invited him to live with him in an off-campus apartment and charged a low rent. .

In those years, in all the good memories about Britain, there is Marcus. He is not only Lin Ai's mentor, but also the most attached close friend in his life.

Now that he is back by his side, Lin Ai thinks, he will always appear when he is weak and at a loss, bringing him hope to persist in loving life, and guiding him to walk towards the light.

After crying in his arms when they reunited, Lin Ai's mood improved a lot, as if as long as Marcus was around, he could return to the carefree state when he was studying abroad.

Marcus came to their company this time partly because he wanted to meet Lin Ai, and partly because he came to discuss cooperation matters. The high-end CBD business district under Shenghua Energy will open at the beginning of the new year, and it needs a promotion plan design.

Logically speaking, a large conglomerate like Shenghua Energy has no shortage of resources, but Marcus insisted on giving this opportunity to Lin Ai and designated him as the project leader.

Yin Cai has been in the cultural circle for a long time, so she naturally knows that this is a big case, not to mention that the partner is the well-known Shenghua Energy, which is equivalent to a free advertisement in the industry, and it is also a turnaround for them.

"President Sheng," Yin Cai extended her hand to Sheng Yu with a smile after signing the contract on the table, "I hope we can have a happy cooperation."

Sheng Yu also smiled, his thin lips curved just right, and after politely shaking hands with the person in front of him, his eyes met Lin Ai who was standing behind her.

"We enjoyed working together, Chérie."

……

Lunch is at a high-end French restaurant that is open.

Authentic puff pastry foie gras served with black truffle sauce has a soft, glutinous, salty and sweet taste, and bouillabaisse is delicious and mellow, both of which are Lin Ai's favorite dishes.

When staying with Maecus, Lin Ai obviously talked a lot more, sticking to him, talking to him about the unfortunate experience at home after returning to China.

He has been prone to mood swings recently, tears flooded, and he started crying before he could say a few words.

Marcus sat at the dining table and frowned at him, with a hesitant look on his pretty face, hesitant to speak.

"Am I a bit annoying, you don't want to listen to me?" Lin Ai asked him with tears in his eyes.

"That's not true." The arc of Marcus' lips was very restrained, but there was a clear smile in his amber eyes, "I was just thinking about one thing."

"...what's on your mind?" he asked, sobbing softly, looking straight at Marcus with big black and white eyes.

"Then come closer—" The man hooked his fingers at him, and lifted his chin lightly, "I'll tell you when I come here."

His voice is magnetic and gentle, bewitching Lin Ai, as if attracted by gravity, to keep getting closer, until even closer.

Marcus's eyes moved slightly, his long arms hooked his neck as soon as he stretched out, his lips were attached to his ear, and he said softly, "I was wondering... are you coming | ..."

Marcus has already witnessed the first two of Lin Ai's pitiful three estrous periods in 23 years.

When he was in heat for the first time, without his parents around, he didn't understand anything, he just thought that he had just finished gym class and was overexcited.

By the time the passion | tide came violently, he had already slumped on the floor of the dressing room, his whole body was hot and weak, and the pheromone of the freesia smell was gushing out.

It was Marcus who discovered him first and carried him to the infirmary. He even taught Lin Ai to inject the first inhibitor into his vein.

The second estrus was at the age of 21. He had experience and prepared inhibitors in advance, and stayed in the house where he lived with Marcus and did not go out.

Three meals a day are prepared by Marcus and placed at the door. Lin Ai will take time out to get them. They try to avoid contact with each other. After all, Marcus is also an Alpha in his prime, and his refreshing and sweet pheromones are indifferent For Lin Ai, the temptation was too great to resist, and many jokes were made when the two lived together.

Thinking of the past, Lin Ai blushed with tear-stained cheeks, and wanted to push him away in embarrassment, but was held tightly by him and couldn't move.

Marcus likes to do some intimate moves to him, like rubbing a pet dog, hugging him in his arms, pinching him round and flattening him, Lin Ai doesn't mind, this is the only one who loves him very much except Papa Bai A drowning and tolerant person.

"Shouldn't be the estrous period..." Lin Ai whispered, her eyelashes trembling wildly, avoiding Marcus' playful eyes. "I came here last month..."

"Really?" Marcus asked with a lazy and pretty smile on his face, but his tone seemed casual, "Then how did you spend it alone?"

Lin Ai didn't answer. He lowered his eyes to look at the half-eaten dish of crab meat and cheese on the table. When he was thinking about how to deal with Marcus's question, a strong smell of crab came into his nose suddenly.

The vomiting came so suddenly that his throat was choked, and he subconsciously covered his mouth and stepped back. The metal chair legs rubbed against the ground and made a harsh sound, which attracted the attention of the guests at the next table.

"What's the matter?" Marcus' eyes were fixed and he was about to reach out to help, but was separated by the man's arms.

Almost instantly, Lin Ai stood up, frowning tightly, and still did not let go of his hand covering his mouth and nose, and said in a low voice, "...I'll go to the bathroom first."

After he finished speaking, he turned and walked towards the bathroom. His footsteps were hasty, his back was hasty, and he almost bumped into the waiter in the restaurant several times.

Only Marcus was left sitting alone in front of the square dining table covered with blue and white plains, staring at the plate of crab meat and cheese with only half a piece left, with a thoughtful expression.

……

Inside the toilet cubicle.

Lin Ai leaned on the toilet and vomited wildly, vomiting out all the food and drink just now.

It wasn't until the jaundiced water was vomited out that the overwhelming feeling in the stomach subsided a little.

When he came out, Marcus was already waiting at the door, looking at Lin Ai's pale complexion, and walked to the sink with frivolous steps.

Fortunately, in order to avoid the embarrassment of the guests after the meal, such a restaurant always has a |sex| mouthwash in reserve. Lin Ai used up two in a row before raising his head in front of the mirror.

His eyes were wet and red, his complexion was pale, a few strands of hair were sticking wetly to his cheeks, but his lips looked bright because he had just vomited, and he looked embarrassed and pitiful.

"I'm not feeling well, I seem to have eaten something wrong..."

"Are you going to the hospital?" Marcus asked softly, handing him a clean handkerchief in time, with a faint amber glow in his eyes.

"No need, it might be fine to go back and rest for a while." Lin Ai shook his head.

He now has an inexplicable fear of the hospital. When he thinks of it, he will think of the medical certificate and some bad memories.

"it is good."

Lin Ai walked out of the bathroom with Marcus one after the other. When he passed the corner of the restaurant, he raised his head inadvertently, but was attracted by a table of guests by the window in front of him.

Those two people seemed to have just been seated, and there was a waiter standing in front of the table who was ordering.

The restaurant was well heated, and he saw one of the tall Alphas slowly taking off his suit jacket, and soon someone wearing white gloves took it over and put it in the VIP cloakroom.

The other is a slender Omega, from his angle, he can only see the man's fair and slender neck, and the complicated embroidery pattern on the neckline of the gown.

It's just a casual recognition of these two people.

It was Fu Sili and Baiou.

I don't know what they are talking about, but I can hear the white gull's elegant and pleasant laughter even from a long distance away.

He flicked his fingers next to his ear, which was playful and cute.

Lin Ai saw that Fu Sili couldn't help reaching out to touch his earlobe, and his diamond-shaped thin lips curled up.

The way he looked at his lover was so focused and serious that he didn't even look in Lin Ai's direction.

The white gull dodged his hand, and wanted to catch his hand, making a foolish smile, like a playful child.

The two of them are outstanding in appearance, and they are particularly conspicuous in the restaurant, but they don't care about the flirting in the eyes of others.

As if frozen, he stood there unable to move, only felt that his heartbeat had slowed down.

He wanted to cry, but his eyes were dry and painful.

He wanted to shout, but his throat was tight and difficult to open.

When he was at a loss, his eyes suddenly darkened. It turned out that Marcus was standing in front of him. There was no smile on the handsome face with the backlight, and his eyes were as quiet as mist and as dark as waves.

He stared into Lin Ai's eyes, and after a while, the corners of his mouth slightly lifted, and asked, "Chérie, tell me, who were you looking at just now?"
