Third-person POV
Diamant stepped back into the luxury hotel room, his mind heavy with the violence he had just ordered. But the moment he closed the door behind him, his breath caught in his throat. To his absolute surprise, the entire suite was flooded with a sweet, intoxicating scent. Noah was in the absolute peak of his heat.
Embarrassed and terrified of being seen in such a vulnerable state, Noah had completely buried himself beneath the heavy silk bedsheets. He was hiding, his chest heaving as he panted heavily for air. His body temperature had spiked dangerously high, radiating heat even through the thick blankets.
Diamant walked closer to the edge of the bed, his silver eyes fixed on the shivering lump beneath the covers. "Are you okay?"
From underneath the sheet, Noah's voice came out in a breathless, trembling whisper. "(Panting) Yes... I'm okay."
"Stop lying," Diamant said, his voice deep and grounding. "I can clearly see that you're in your heat. And why are you hiding yourself under the bedsheet? It's a completely natural phenomenon."
"I said I'm okay!" Noah insisted stubbornly, pulling the fabric tighter around his flushed face.
"No, you're not," Diamant countered evenly, refusing to back down.
"Please just leave," Noah wept softly, the overwhelming shame crushing him. "This is already so embarrassing..."
Diamant knelt slightly by the bedside, his tone softening just a fraction. "Do you want my help?"
Noah froze beneath the sheets, his heart skipping a beat in sheer shock. "No! No, no..."
"Stop being so stubborn already," Diamant murmured, staring at the trembling blanket. "I don't mind."
Noah slowly pulled the sheet down just enough to expose his tear-stained, flushed face. His eyes were wide with insecurity. "Mr. Reed, if you're saying this out of pity, then please just let me be. I'll be fine after taking some suppressants."
"The suppressants won't take any effect on you," Diamant stated coldly, recalling the conversation they had in his office. "You've been taking them for far too long. Your body is immune."
"It will work!" Noah gasped, desperately trying to convince himself as another wave of heat hit his lower abdomen. "I just... I just have to take more of it."
Diamant crossed his arms, giving him a challenging look. "Okay then. I'll watch you take them. Let's see if it takes effect or not."
Trembling violently, Noah stretched his pale hand out from beneath the blankets and reached for his fallen tote bag. He fumbled inside until his fingers wrapped around a bottle of heavy-duty, maximum-strength suppressants. He swallowed a massive dose, his throat dry, and lay back down. Five minutes passed in agonizing silence, but the excruciating heat inside him only intensified. The medicine did absolutely nothing. Yet, despite the agony, Noah still stubbornly refused to ask for Diamant's help.
Seeing how relentlessly stubborn the Omega was being, Diamant realized he had to change his approach. In order to break through Noah's walls and make him accept the help he desperately needed, Diamant decided to intentionally release a small, controlled wave of his own dominant Alpha pheromones. He didn't want to touch Noah without his explicit permission, even if it was to save his life, so he needed Noah's inner Omega to completely surrender to the bond.
Sorry, Noah, Diamant thought to himself, his inner Alpha aching for the suffering boy. I'm only doing this to help you.
"Since you insist on being so stubborn," Diamant said aloud, deliberately turning his back, "then I'll just let you be."
Diamant pretended to walk away, his polished shoes clicking against the floor. But before he could take a third step, he felt a sudden, frantic, soft grip wrap around his wrist.
He turned back. Noah had thrown the sheets off, his eyes completely glassy and blown out with pure desire as the Alpha pheromones overrode his defenses. "Help me," Noah begged, big tears rolling down his crimson cheeks. "Please help me... I promise I'll be goo—"
Before Noah could finish the desperate sentence, Diamant leaned down. He gently placed two fingers over Noah's trembling lips, cutting off his words. "Shhhh," Diamant whispered, his silver eyes dark with intensity. "Say less."
Eager and consumed by the intoxicating alpha scent, Noah frantically reached up and grabbed Diamant's crisp collar, pulling him down for a desperate kiss. But Diamant gently caught his wrists, pulling back slightly.
"Hey, hey. Slow down, little Omega," Diamant murmured, his breath hot against Noah's skin. "We gotta cover that regular Alpha's mark first."
Noah, completely lost to his instincts, could only nod frantically. "Mmm..."
"Okay," Diamant whispered, his eyes locking onto the faded mark on Noah's neck. "It might hurt a little."
Diamant leaned over him, burying his face in the crook of Noah's neck. He gently placed his lips over the old, unwanted blemish and then bit down with a firm, dominant pressure. The sharp sensation of a dominant Alpha rewriting his bond pierced through Noah's system, causing him to arch his back and moan out loudly into the quiet room.
When Diamant pulled away, the old mark was entirely gone, completely overwritten by the scent of a true dominant Alpha. "It's all done now," Diamant said softly.
Noah looked up at him, his hips shifting restlessly against the mattress. "Then... touch me."
Diamant gulped, his throat tight as his own control began to slip.
Reaching down, Diamant gently lifted Noah's chin, tilting his head back before laying a soft, incredibly tender kiss on his swollen lips. But the gentle touch wasn't enough to satisfy the roaring fire inside Noah. Before Diamant could pull his lips away, Noah suddenly bit down on Diamant's lower lip, a bold and provocative move meant to ignite the Alpha's desire. Diamant let out a low rumble in his chest; he was holding back with everything he had because he didn't want to seem like a shameless pervert taking advantage of his secretary.
But seeing how much Noah was craving him, Diamant decided to make sure the Omega had his absolute fill. He deepened the kiss, his hands gripping the mattress on either side of Noah's head. After a few moments of teasing, Diamant slowly slid his tongue into Noah's mouth, tasting him fully. He then slid his lips down to Noah's sensitive neck.
Noah let out a small, breathless moan, his fingers wrapping into Diamant's long silver hair, pulling him closer. Diamant sucked firmly on the sensitive skin for a while, before laying a succession of soft kisses over the area to ease the stinging pain. He then trailed down to his collarbone, sucking fiercely enough to leave a dark, unmistakable hickey.
Diamant pulled back slightly, his breathing heavy. "Are you ready?"
Noah, completely breathless, nodded eagerly.
Gently but firmly, Diamant took both of Noah's hands and pinned them securely above his head against the pillows. He paused, looking down into Noah's face one last time to seek his final approval. Noah's eyes were filled with nothing but desperate eagerness. Seeing his consent, Diamant slowly and carefully pushed himself inside.
Noah let out a loud, ringing moan, his eyes throwing back as his body stretched to accommodate the dominant Alpha. Diamant started off incredibly slowly, moving with deliberate patience to let Noah's tight, heat-slicked body adjust to his size. But the slow torment was too much for the desperate Omega. Noah screamed out into the room.
"Faster... please, faster!" Noah begged, his hips blindly chasing after Diamant's warmth.
Obeying the plea, Diamant picked up the pace, moving a little bit faster with each thrust. Noah let out another loud moan, this one far more intense than the first, his sharp nails digging directly into the muscles of Diamant's bare back as he held on for dear life.
Diamant let out a deep, gravelly groan of pure pleasure at the tight sensation. He paused his movements for a fraction of a second. "Did I go too deep?"
Noah rapidly shook his head, his hair splayed wild across the pillows. "No... no, keep going!"
Diamant kept going, adjusting his rhythm to be a bit gentler but keeping the pace steady and deep. Overwhelmed by the intense pleasure, Noah pulled Diamant's head down, crashing their lips together in a messy, open-mouthed kiss. They moved together in a passionate rhythm for a few more intense minutes, the heat in the room reaching a boiling point.
As the initial, dangerous peak of Noah's heat finally began to subside into a comfortable, warm glow, Diamant's rational mind began to return.
He looked down at the beautiful, exhausted Omega beneath him, and a sudden wave of anxiety hit him. Will he think that I'm a pervert? he worried, fearing he had pushed his employee too far.
Anxious to preserve Noah's dignity, Diamant slowly and carefully pulled away, extricating himself from the bed.
Noah blinked up at him through heavy, half-lidded eyes, completely dazed.
"That's enough now," Diamant said, his voice a bit strained as he pulled the blankets back up over Noah's bare, marked shoulders. "You must be completely exhausted. Go to sleep."
Noah watched him turn away, a sudden chill settling in his chest. Is he not interested in me at all? Noah thought sadly, his heart sinking. After all, he's only doing this out of pure pity. But... I can't ask for more. He has already done so much just to save my life.
Suppressing his disappointment, Noah pulled the blanket up to his chin. "Hmm... Good night."
Diamant softly closed the bathroom door behind him to clean up, his deep voice echoing into the dark bedroom. "Good night."
