逆转 (Reverse) – 莲鹤夫人
Chapter 9
The alpha moved like an ant trying to escape a hot pan, and every inch of him screamed “restless” in big letters. With a troubled expression, his lips squeezed together, and on the brink of tears, he stared at the omega as he held the piece of paper.
“Wife…” His clenched fists clutched the bedsheet firmly, his pheromones pumping like a pot of boiling water hovering in midair, “Wife… wife!”
Even though the scorching pheromones in the air made the omega’s head spin, he held on to the doorframe and yelled out, “Don’t move! Don’t get any closer, just stay there!”
The omega’s command was like an unseen but impenetrable iron chain. The alpha froze right away, stiff as a board and unable to move, like a wild animal with its neck at the point of death. His eyes were wide open and lost as they stared at him through tears that couldn’t stop flowing.
“Okay, okay… exactly like that… Stay still, understand?” The omega approached with caution, resembling an inexperienced yet naturally talented animal trainer, and sat softly next to his rutting husband, saying, “No sudden movements…”
He moved like a flower blowing in the wind, lightly and quietly across the beast’s tail fur, but the beast still acted like it had been burned by a hot iron. The mattress rocked abruptly, causing the alpha to tremble, unable to move his head, tears streaming heavier, and his throat making muffled crying sounds. The omega was certain that his unruly husband would devour him in an instant if he was not kept in control.
He was sweating, and the plan sheet he was holding was wet. The omega whispered softly, “Alright, come sit next to me… It’s fine, but be careful…”
Leaning forward in a desperate attempt to get a kiss from his mate, the alpha hiccupped and cried out, “W-wife…”
Tears glinted from his thick brows as his red eyes widened. He looked at the omega, his face wet, and the omega was afraid he might die of thirst.
His lips quivered as he gently touched the alpha’s cheek, a subtle, bittersweet smile curling on his lips, “How can you cry so much…?”
With tears streaming down his face, the alpha responded, “I can’t be without my wife; I’m scared he’ll l-leave… so I cry…”
“Why scared?” With a gentle tone, the omega asked, “You… remember what happened before, don’t you?”
In an instant, the alpha’s breath caught. He held himself, his face red with embarrassment, his body contorting into a tiny ball in front of his precious wife, his eyes faltering as if on the brink of tears.
“Wife…” He struggled to catch his breath as he sobbed, “I…I don’t know, wife… Don’t ask me… I don’t know…”
Is there anything more that we don’t know at this point?
The omega sighed, “Okay, you… haa… you don’t have to be scared. I won’t hurt you, so come closer to me.”
The alpha leaned in, sobbing, and buried his head in his omega’s chest as if he were being pardoned. He seemed terrified by the question, tearing up and trying to undress his partner, eager for sex.
The omega held him like a frail tiger or lion, with luscious fur, a simmering body full of heat, and muscles and bones that weighed a ton. He gently touched the alpha’s hair and asked, “Do you know what you did wrong?”
“I-I… I know…” the alpha whimpered as he clutched anxiously.
“If you know you’re wrong, there should be consequences, right?” the omega teased.
“Mmm… mm!”
“Then look at this,” the omega said, unfolding the paper, “You agreed to this and signed it on your own. You can’t just ignore it, right?”
The alpha didn’t say anything, pouted, and shook his head firmly.
The omega was astounded, “What’s the matter? Why are you shaking your head?”
“No, I don’t agree. I don’t want to agree…” the alpha let out a piercing cry, “That’s not my signature! It’s not mine! I want my wife!”
Not expecting a tantrum, the omega went silent.
He toughened his heart and commanded, “Be good. Let’s start with the first day’s plan. When you finish it, you’ll get kisses. All right? No hugs, no kisses, if you don’t behave.”
After being threatened, the alpha finally choked himself into sitting up and waiting for his first task to be assigned.
The omega used pheromones to calm him down. The plan was to slowly teach the alpha to do things on his own. The final goal was for him to be able to move around the house and do things without his partner. The first seven days of the expert plan helped him get used to moving around at home.
“Just sit at the dinner table downstairs for a while. I’ll cook, and you wait there for me,” the omega said. “For about…”
He was going to say “about half an hour,” but his alpha’s face was already twisted. He was trembling and shedding tears, holding on to his clothes. The omega quickly changed his mind and said, “Just a little while! I’ll be right back! There, there…”

The omega started to sweat as he led the alpha away from his nesting place. He plopped him down in a chair and put one of his own worn clothes in his alpha’s arms to reassure him.
“I have to cook.” the omega said, “I’ll be out soon. Just sit here and don’t go to the kitchen, okay?”
The alpha nodded through snot. But when the omega walked away, the alpha clung to the shirt anxiously, whirled around in a panic, and wept uncontrollably.
As he turned to make the late-night meal, the omega slid the frosted glass door shut behind him and stepped to the counter. The pheromones released by the alpha appeared to be physically present, manifesting as nervous fists banging on the door. The omega forced himself to ignore it.
After ten minutes of boiling soup, the omega reached for a seasoning bottle—and almost jumped.
“….!?!”
The alpha outside wailed pitifully as he pressed his face against the glass. Tears and snot spread all over the frosted surface, leaving a distorted image of his face.
The omega turned his head and cackled quietly for three minutes straight, his shoulders shaking and tears streaming down his face from laughing so hard.
