“You know that dominant alphas lead our society as the top 1% of our economy, right? The body of an extremely dominant omega, who always gives birth to alphas of dominant or higher status, or omegas, can be considered a national asset without exaggeration. I believe Mr. Ban Eunhong should be proud of his body.”
This must have been what the doctor was muttering about, like hitting the lottery. 100% dominant production. What do you call this? Survival of the fittest? Some law of genetic preservation or something…
When Eunhong’s expression remained unchanged at her words, the doctor sitting next to her hesitantly stood up and pointed to the bottom of the file, chiming in.
“Here…, you should explain the special clause part. If…”
The woman, following the doctor’s gesture, jumped up dramatically. Her voice tone suddenly rose by an octave.
“Oh my, oh my, that’s right! If you happen to give birth to an extremely dominant alpha, you’ll receive the special amount listed at the bottom as an additional payment. I almost forgot to mention something important. Thank you, Dr. Park.”
Birth. My head was ringing with a dull sound.
…This is bullshit. Watching them clap hands and nod at each other in greeting, Eunhong wrinkled his nose. He zipped up his track top to his neck and shoved his hands into his pockets. There was no reason to sit around any longer now that his curiosity was satisfied.
As Eunhong stood up, the faces of the doctor and the manager stiffened slightly. How much would they receive if they closed this deal…? After silently estimating, he just laughed it off. No need to make enemies.
“I’ll think about it.”
“By all means! Take your time to think it over, and feel free to contact us anytime. Just…”
The manager, who stood up following Eunhong, handed over a business card and added with a smile pulled up as high as possible.
“You must maintain strict confidentiality. Not because of us, but it’s not good for your personal information, Mr. Ban Eunhong. There are certainly people who illegally target the bodies of extremely dominant omegas.”
“……”
Eunhong’s gaze swept back and forth between the two. They were staring at him with smiles, showing no change in expression, and suddenly it sent chills down his spine.
“Thank you for the advice.”
It was a statement that felt half, no, almost entirely like a threat. A threat that if the secret leaked out, they would also leak Eunhong’s information. Eunhong, feeling angry, was about to say that what they were talking about donors wasn’t illegal, but he held back again. If information leaked from a large hospital and a patient suffered damage, these people probably wouldn’t be safe either, but presumably, even the fact that damage had occurred would likely be buried.
It wasn’t because he was a coward. They say if you endure three times, you can even avoid murder, so Eunhong quietly folded his fingers in his pocket and endured well. Alright, one more left for today.
He decided to go home and sleep first. This was the method Eunhong had always chosen when he wanted to escape from reality. Getting struck by lightning in the middle of the night would be one thing… He couldn’t believe the utterly surreal current situation.
The last thing he remembered was feeling dizzy and collapsing in the lobby after going to see a musical. He didn’t know how much time had passed since then. When he woke up, he was in an ambulance, and they told him he had become an omega. And not just any omega, but an extremely dominant one.
After being treated like a breeding horse capable of producing the highest bloodline for several hours, his head was throbbing. No, not treated like, but actually becoming a breeding horse. Or should I say… Eunhong shook his head vigorously to shake off the random thoughts spreading endlessly.
He needed to get home quickly and sleep. That would help his mind start working again. Eunhong stretched out his long legs and took a big step. That’s when the doctor caught him again.
“Ah, what is it now?”
To Eunhong, who had finally lost his temper, the doctor handed over a few sheets of paper. It was a kind of ‘Guide to Living as a Secondary Sex Characteristic Individual’ densely filled with test results and future precautions.
“And about the pheromone suppressants I explained earlier, I didn’t get to guide you on this part…”
It was when Eunhong, who had taken the papers, was scanning the tiny letters. The doctor added in a quiet voice.
“If you have sexual intercourse during manifestation, there’s a high probability of unwanted pregnancy.”
“…Me?”
Eunhong opened his eyes wide. Wait a minute, doctor… What are you saying? Without even realizing it, Eunhong’s mouth opened stupidly.
“You need to take the morning-after pill within 48 hours, so you should take it right away at the pharmacy on the first floor.”
“You’re saying I had… what?”
“Sexual intercourse, Mr. Ban Eunhong.”
Fuck… Eunhong folded his last finger.
The urge to kill, the murderous impulse boiled up in his chest.
“You’re saying I had sexual intercourse? Me?”
“…Yes. Since it was an unstable manifestation, and you were in a state of diminished capacity when you arrived at the hospital, we conducted emergency tests considering the possibility of a sex crime related to characteristic. This part is mandatory and is carried out without the patient’s consent. We also collected evidence samples.”
“Evidence samples?”
“Body hair left on your body, Mr. Ban Eunhong…, semen, that is.”
Good heavens, did you just say semen? The doctor caught Eunhong as he staggered. Eunhong shook off the doctor’s chubby hand and ran outside. He needed cold air right away.
His two legs trembled weakly like a newborn fawn, and his chest, lacking breath, rose and fell steeply. Eunhong, who had rushed out of the VIP ward with a rough momentum, almost rolled over after stumbling while running down the emergency stairs. It wasn’t until he reached a quiet floor that he could finally catch his breath. Eunhong snuck into a secluded bathroom like a guilty person.
As the anger that had boiled up subsided, self-loathing rushed in like a wave, and nausea welled up. After dry heaving a few times while clutching the toilet in the hospital bathroom and washing his face repeatedly with cold water, he finally felt like his vision was clearing.
Grabbing the sink and frantically racking his brain, his mind was blank as a sheet of paper. The only thing that came to mind was….
That large and hot thing that had dug into him, spreading him open tightly below… as thick as a child’s forearm… hot and heavy… Strangely, while he couldn’t remember anything else, the sensation of that thing with its bulging veins suddenly felt vivid again, as if it had risen again in his hand.
“Fuck…”
Eunhong scrunched up his face and squeezed his eyes shut. He gently twisted his body and pulled down his pants and underwear together, looking at his own pale buttocks that had been hidden.
Eunhong swallowed hard once and looked around to see if anyone was coming into the bathroom. He fumbled with his fingers, touching the crevice between his buttocks, fiddling with the delicate wrinkles.
He was worried that it might have been torn, or if there were any wounds inside causing bleeding, but fortunately, it seemed to be fine. Unconsciously, the safety of his precious body part was his first concern, given the terrifying size and length of that thing that had vividly come to mind. Just as he was breathing a shallow sigh of relief, another memory flashed by. The unfamiliar voice that sounded like someone else’s, him lying down and whimpering and crying….
“Aaargh!! Crazy! You crazy bastard!!”
Not content with just pulling his hair, he was about to bang his head against the wall when a middle-aged man with a bald head entered the bathroom with a fake cough. Eunhong was startled and quickly composed himself, immediately leaving the bathroom.
After calculating the hospital bill and getting a pile of expensive pheromone regulators and manifestation stabilizers that weren’t covered by insurance, along with other medications, the number left in his bank account was pitiful. On top of that, the morning-after pill he received was unnecessarily large and even had a disgustingly bright red color.
He thought he’d never have to deal with something like this in his life, but the possibility of pregnancy… Isn’t this crazy? Is this really reality? Suddenly feeling bloated in his stomach, he rubbed his belly vigorously.
“I won’t die from taking this, right…?”
Eunhong’s eyes were hollow as he swallowed the pill while cursing. He patted his chest as he swallowed the large pill stuck in his throat with dry saliva. He felt miserable that the Bacchus he bought to take with the medicine was too small in quantity.
“Fuck…”
Frustratingly, he still couldn’t remember anything. Eunhong sat down, folding his long legs, and buried his head between his knees. Someone in patient clothes passed by, clicking their tongue. “Poor thing… must have gotten a terminal illness at such a young age…” Eunhong didn’t even have the energy to get angry at the person spouting nonsense in front of a perfectly healthy person.
Sniff. Hic… Sob… Hic!
Round dots fell and formed between the neatly placed sneakers on the floor. Characteristic, yeah, fucking characteristic… He didn’t care whether it was extremely dominant or whatever. Eunhong had no information about secondary sex characteristics that others naturally learn about as they grow up and manifest during puberty. Since he knew nothing, the changes in life that would come in the future didn’t even register.
Eunhong muttered bravely.
“Yeah, whatever! What’s the big deal about being an omega! It’s just one more function I didn’t have before!”
But the sex he couldn’t even remember made Eunhong feel miserable. The reason he was crying his eyes out now was because Eunhong, a lifelong single, had his precious first time stolen. And in a way he couldn’t have imagined. From behind! And with no memory of it! His body was all he had, and that body had thoroughly betrayed him.
