The alpha who completely conquered Valentin like that perfectly devoured his body all night, and the omega recalling that memory with a mind that regained reason in the morning turned red up to the tips of his ears with embarrassment.

“Ahhhh…”

He had expected it to some extent, but this was really too much.

He hadn’t predicted such an incredible night.

Excessive pleasure…

Losing reason in this way with such sensations…

Rubbing his flushed face with embarrassment and self-loathing, Valentin writhed like a rag without being able to properly put strength in his muscles and was dragged into the arms by a heavy arm wrapped around his waist pulling hard. A sound of “Wah!” unknowingly came out due to the strong force.

“You’re awake?”

The owner of the arm said softly from behind.

His originally pleasant baritone voice was submerged in morning drowsiness. A voice that was cool even when it turned huskily rough…

The omega, who was embraced with bare skin directly rubbing, got goosebumps from the words spoken deep into his ear. It was because of the breath of the voice’s owner.

The alpha had naturally stopped using honorifics at some point since last night’s bed.

[I don’t want to be polite even on the bed.]

Is that what he said?

Really, who wants to be polite? You should be grateful that I’m from a country of Eastern etiquette in my previous life. I’m using honorifics because you look much older than me. Valentin thought only inwardly and snorted a small “Hmph!”

He moved his hand to naturally caress the omega in his arms. That touch seemed to be tenderly caressing a long-time lover innocently, and from time to time, the tips of his fingers erotically standing seemed to stroke to arouse sexual sensation again.

From the beginning, he was a person who acted politely while maintaining an appropriate distance, but also acted actively, but after sharing bodies for a night, now he was naturally more active. Valentin shook his head slightly because it seemed like the memory of crying out in pleasure last night would come back, but his cheeks were already redder.

Noticing the omega in his arms blushing like an apple, he chuckled and brought his lips there.

Light bird kisses fell several times like rose petals. Then, reaching out his hand, he turned Valentin’s face completely and kissed the slightly parted red lips.

“Ah…”

Passionate lips hotly messed up the swollen lips that were sucked all night again.

The touch that was innocent earlier turned really erotic this time and fumbled the naked white skin. A crying sound naturally came out as the place tormented all night rubbed against the rough palm and ached.

“Ah… No…”

“Hmm…?”

He mumbled and asked without taking his lips off the neck.

“It hurts…”

Valentin couldn’t even look at the alpha’s face and kept his gaze around his neck, making a timid resistance by pushing with both arms.

“It hurts?”

You suck, bite, and torment it all night and see if your whole body doesn’t hurt! Valentin wanted to glare at him with his eyes wide open with a wronged heart, but failed after twisting his body too quickly and pain intensely came.

“Ugh…”

“It must really hurt. It’s because it’s your first time. Don’t worry, next time you’ll get used to it and it will hurt less.”

Next?

Did we have a next time?

“But what time is it now? I have to go back…!”

He didn’t mean to change the subject, but the light outside the window behind the curtain didn’t look good. Could it be daytime now, not morning…? Although he didn’t know nature deeply, based on the intensity and brightness of the light, he predicted it was definitely the sunlight of midday, which struck his head.

Realizing he had stayed out all night completely intoxicated by the dominant alpha’s sexual pheromones he smelled for the first time, and couldn’t return home until daytime, not even morning, Valentin felt like all the blood drained from his head.

Father and Dalton might be waiting in the mansion lobby with clubs…!

Cold sweat ran down his back thinking of his family members who briefly greeted each other only with gazes, standing far away at last night’s ball.

“Come to think of it, where do you live? Isn’t it about time you tell me now?”

Indeed, forget about time to tell, it was way, excessively past that.

No matter how much of a one night stand it is, where does it happen that you share a hot night without even knowing the name like roasting beans on a lightning fire like this? It’s not like we met at a tavern while passing by. In the social circles where everyone knows each other after a few connections.

“You didn’t properly tell me your name either…”

When Valentin glanced at him, unable to make eye contact, saying ‘You too,’ the alpha who was watching it burst into laughter seeing that coy expression.

‘No, at what point are you laughing?’

When Valentin, who really couldn’t understand, was tilting his head with his eyes wide open like a rabbit, he fake coughed and slowly stopped laughing and spoke seriously.

“I thought you knew.”

“Pardon?”

How would I know?

Are you that famous? Are you some saint or His Majesty the Emperor?

As if breaking Valentin’s thoughts, he opened his mouth in a low voice and seriously introduced himself.

“Marquis of Valkyries. Colonel Reynard Dennox. I’m also the heir to the Dennox ducal family.”

But it’s still a long way to the duke position since my father is healthy, he added.

“…!”

The moment he heard that introduction, Valentin’s face turned even paler than when he recalled the fact that he stayed out all night.

What…? What did you say…?

Excuse me, what did you say just now…?

Did I hear it correctly…?

For a moment, Valentin was plagued by the gestalt disintegration theory. Dennox what, what, what?

Should he have predicted it from the moment he laughed, thinking he knew who he was…?

The other party was the heir to the Dennox ducal family, which was in charge of almost all of the empire’s naval power.

The current Grand Duke of Dennox was also an admiral of the navy and at the same time a grand duke, and his heir, the Marquis of Valkyries, was also a colonel in the navy who led the recent war to victory as a war hero.

No matter how much he skimmed over articles because he hated colonies, he couldn’t not know since the titles always caught his eye.

Moreover, his notoriety…!

The places he directly passed through in battle reached the peak of desolation… He executed several soldiers who violated military law on the spot… He punches officers with his fists at the drop of a hat…!

The fact that Valentin, who had no interest in war or soldiers at all, knew this much meant he couldn’t imagine how many more vicious rumors there were about him in reality.

He just felt he had completely picked the wrong person.

‘I’m screwed.’

At this point, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to attach this phrase to Valentin’s motto or the title before his name.

As Valentin’s face gradually filled with shock and even his mouth opened as wide as a basin, Reynard chuckled and raised his finger to grab his chin and firmly close his mouth.

“I thought you would naturally know, but it seems you didn’t.”

Yes… Now that I’ve heard your identity, I really understand that confidence….

‘How could this be….’

But I was abroad until recently… And I have no interest in that field… Valentin swallowed the words he couldn’t say.

It was scary. Did he touch a person who was too dangerous while trying to avoid a terrible future and a shitty 3rd Prince…?

To this kind of person…! I didn’t recognize such an incredible person! Yesterday I pulled his hair and scratched his skin a lot…! Valentin looked at the red lines clearly visible on the tough, dark skin like horse muscles and screamed inwardly while cursing his past self as stupid.

“So, won’t you introduce yourself to me? Valentin whose surname I don’t know?”

He said with a mischievous smile.

That smile must be his trademark. It was the expression that appeared whenever Valentin did or said something.

Now that he had clearly revealed his identity, Valentin couldn’t hide it anymore either. Moreover, wasn’t the alpha in front of him someone who could find out right away if he really wanted to know about him…!

Imagining his notorious subordinates, known for their tremendous achievements and knife-like operational capabilities, immediately investigating his identity and family at Reynard’s command, Valentin barely opened his mouth with a stupidly stiff face.

“…I’m Valentin of the Wiche Viscount family….”

Somehow unable to look at his face at all, he lowered his eyes that shook as if there was an earthquake and avoided his gaze with all his might.

“…I see. The Wiche Viscount family….”

What, what…?

You’re not writing a hit list now, are you…?

Valentin trembled in fear as he heard his muttering.

“Wash up and get dressed. I’ll take you back. The bathroom is over there.”

He pointed to the door connected to the bedroom with his hand.

Of course, even while speaking, the touch blatantly felt brushing Valentin’s white, smooth back, but such trivial things had to be ignored.

‘That’s good, I have to get out of here quickly!’

Let alone the embarrassment of facing the one night stand partner naked under the bright sunlight, the shame of it…

Every situation seemed to be drawing the power of the universe to shout at Valentin to run away, to flee this place right now.

Run away, Valentin!
