Do Aliens Also Have Arranged Marriages? - Chapter 22

Chapter 22 – Jian Ning : An Alpha’s Rut is More Annoying than Omega’s Heat

Shen Yan wrapped himself tightly, and only when Jian Ning approached did he stick his upper body out of the quilt and lean against the head of the bed.

The slightly open neckline revealed the firm muscle lines, the veins on the arms were bulging, and the tense body was like a predator in hunting mode.

The pheromones, which have always been restrained, showed no sign of restraining their aggressiveness at this moment. They swept over like a biting cold wind, carrying a hint of entanglement.

In contrast, Shen Yan raised his chin, revealing the lines of his neck full of tension, his Adam’s apple and collarbone. He took the initiative to expose the weakness of his throat to Jian Ning’s sight.

Jian Ning was stunned watching from the side until he heard the man’s urging voice again.

Shen Yan’s eyes slightly raised, and his deep facial features cast dark shadows under the overhead light.

His tone was much softer than usual, “What are you waiting for? Aren’t you going to bite me?”

“Ah…” Jian Ning seemed to be awakened, a blush appeared on his ears, and then he climbed onto the bed quietly.

He half-knelt beside Shen Yan and said alertly, “Don’t move for a moment.”

Jian Ning still remembered that the last time Shen Yan bit him, it felt very uncomfortable.

When someone bites your neck, it is the body’s instinct to want to break free and fight back.

“Yeah.” Shen Yan said calmly and closed his eyes, seeming to trust him very much.

Jian Ning slowly moved to the right position, then leaned down and approached Shen Yan’s neck, with two tiny white canine teeth eager to try.

At this moment, his upper body almost overlapped with Shen Yan.

However, the moment Jian Ning bit the Alpha gland, he couldn’t help but tremble all over.

The cold aroma of cedar is stronger in the glands.

Jian Ning felt that his reaction seemed to be even more serious than Shen Yan’s.

The corners of his eyes were a little red, and he used his canine teeth to try to pierce the skin.

Shen Yan, whose gland was being bitten, groaned and frowned, resisting the desire of his body to attack.

The Omega’s canine teeth gnawed back and forth near his gland, trying for a long time but always failing.

Jian Ning also noticed this and stood up awkwardly.

He held Shen Yan’s neck in his mouth and nibbled on it for a long time.

Finally, he discovered in despair that he seemed unable to bite through Shen Yan’s gland at all!

Instead, he bit Shen Yan’s neck with saliva.

Jian Ning fell into deep self-doubt.

How could he, an alien species, not be able to bite through human skin?

…Or is Shen Yan just too thick-skinned?

He looked at the place where he had bitten several teeth marks, blinking, his face stiff.

After a brief silence, Jian Ning touched the tip of his red ear and said with shame on his face: “I’m sorry, I…I don’t think I can do it.”

“Yeah.” Shen Yan’s voice sounded a little hoarse than before.

He glanced at Shen Yan’s expression and asked in a low voice: “What should we do…Are you still feeling very uncomfortable now?”

Shen Yan opened his eyes a little.

He looked at Jian Ning for a few seconds, then asked, “Can I hold you for a while?”

“Huh?” Jian Ning asked puzzledly.

He hesitated for a moment, then leaned over again and lay on Shen Yan’s chest. The man’s hot palms then wrapped around his waist, bringing him closer.

The two were in a very intimate posture, with Jian Ning almost lying on Shen Yan.

After a while, a muffled voice came from the side of Shen Yan’s neck: “Will this work?”

Shen Yan closed his eyes and responded softly.

He had never had such close contact with anyone else, but at this moment, the warmth on his chest made him feel very comfortable. The familiar and tempting smell of lychee surrounded him, and his frown finally relaxed a little.

But it’s not enough.

It’s not enough.

Shen Yan increased the strength of his palms, wishing that every inch of their skin could fit together without reservation.

Jian Ning felt the sudden increase in force around his waist and realized that Shen Yan’s condition seemed to be still very bad.

He raised his head with difficulty, realising that he was looking at Shen Yan’s facial features at such a close distance for the first time.

He always knew that Shen Yan had a very nice face.

He has a clear outline, a high nose bridge, and long and narrow eyelashes on his brows. On weekdays, thick shadows are cast under his eyes, making it difficult to understand his emotions. One can only see the usual coldness and chill in his eyes.

His gaze continued to move downwards. Shen Yan’s lips were cold, thin and extremely light in color, like a sharp blade covered by ice and snow in the dead of winter.

Well, Shen Yan looks really uncomfortable.

He couldn’t bite through Shen Yan’s glands, so how could he give him pheromones?

Just hugging him like this shouldn’t do much, right?

Suddenly remembering something, Jian Ning was stunned, and his eyes once again rested on those cold thin lips.

Thudd—thuddd—

He felt his heartbeat quickening.

Jian Ning thought that he was just doing Shen Yan a favor.

So, he looked at Shen Yan’s tightly pursed thin lips, carefully pressed his lips against his, and separated as soon as they touched.

As he left, he gently licked the man’s lower lip with the tip of his tongue.

The arm that was originally just around his waist was instantly clasped tightly, making him unable to move even an inch.

Shen Yan suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the bewildered man. His voice became hoarse and obscure: “What are you doing?”

Jian Ning looked away guiltily: “Don’t you need pheromones?”

“It seems that this is also possible…” His voice became lower and lower.

He remembered that kissing was also a way to exchange pheromones.

He quietly raised his eyes and glanced at Shen Yan’s ascetic and cold thin lips, which were now stained with a little crystal water color. He instantly lowered his head in embarrassment.

What did he just do?

Ah?!

Jian Ning had never had any close contact with anyone, and he had never been sure of his sexual orientation. Therefore, he thought he was an ordinary straight man like most people.

But now, looking at Shen Yan’s lips that were moistened from his licking, he felt a heat rising on his face that he could no longer suppress, gradually spreading to all parts of his body.

From the corner of his eye he saw the man’s Adam’s apple rolling up and down, and his tongue tip licking his lips, as if absorbing the pheromones left on his lips.

Then he heard a calm man’s voice above his head: “Thank you, this is indeed more effective.”

Jian Ning: “…”

The next second, a corner of the quilt was pulled open, and the frightened Jian Ning was wrapped in the quilt by Shen Yan.

“Let me hold you for a while longer.”

Shen Yan’s action was unexpected. Jian Ning was stunned for a moment, his face flushed, but he did not struggle.

The hot breath kept passing by his ears, and he felt the tips of his ears burning.

After a while, he asked, “Is it ok?”

“…Not yet.”

A while later.

“…Is it okay now?”

“No.”

Normally, Shen Yan didn’t look like a strong man, but when his body was pressed down at this moment, Jian Ning realized how terrifying the power hidden under the muscles of this body was.

He was hugged tightly by the man and wrapped in the quilt, with only his head exposed.

The cold-blooded butcher who always killed aliens without blinking an eye, now acted like a clingy big cat, rubbing his tall nose against the neck of the alien.

The rich scent of cedar surrounded him tightly.

Jian Ning blinked and listened quietly to the steady yet heavy breathing behind his ears. His pounding heart couldn’t slow down for a long time.

An unknown amount of time had passed, but in the silence of breathing, Jian Ning felt his eyelids gradually becoming heavy, and finally he could no longer resist the sleepiness that was coming.

He closed his eyes and let the heavy sleepiness drag him into dreams.

5:30 in the morning.

In the darkness, a pair of cold eyes opened on time.

Shen Yan felt the warmth in his arms, paused, and looked down.

A few strands of the young man’s soft black hair were pressed against his chest, and the two of them hugged each other in a very intimate posture.

The memory of last night instantly emerged in his mind.

Shen Yan’s breathing turned disordered for a moment.

He tried to get up and loosen his hands that were tightly holding the young man’s waist.

But as soon as he raised his hand, the emptiness in his heart made him instinctively tighten his arms again.

His susceptible period is not over yet.

After a moment of stalemate, Shen Yan lay back in his original position, quietly staring at the young man lying in his arms.

•|•

Shen Yan’s susceptible period was longer than expected, and during this process, Jian Ning had almost no way to leave Shen Yan’s sight.

Those cold eyes were always staring at him, with a focused gaze.

Even when Shen Yan was preparing breakfast, Jian Ning, who was sitting outside, noticed that Shen Yan turned around and looked at him at least ten times.

“…” For the first time, he felt that the Alpha’s susceptible period was even more annoying than the Omega’s estrus period.

What is there for him to worry about for a patient in a special period?

Jian Ning curled up on the sofa, recalling the scene when he woke up in the man’s arms not long ago, and the blush that had just faded appeared on his cheeks again.

Although Shen Yan didn’t seem to be fully awake, he seemed to be unaffected in handling his official duties.

After breakfast, Jian Ning heard Shen Yan talking on the phone with someone by the French window.

“Someone has mutated?”

“Yes, there were a few guys whose mental powers were seriously out of control. Even tranquilizers couldn’t control them. They started to mutate not long after arriving at the detention room. Fortunately, you asked Feng Qi to bring people with you yesterday…”

“Well, I’ll come over this afternoon.”

On the Star Brain side, Du Suo said hesitantly: “Are you…can you do it in your current state?”

Shen Yan paused, then turned around and looked behind him, “He’s with me.”

Du Suo: “…Okay.”

During the conversation with Du Suo, Shen Yan did not avoid Jian Ning.

It was not just because of the susceptible Alpha’s attachment to his partner, but also because from his observations in the past few days, he had realized that although Jian Ning was hiding something, he did not have any ill intentions towards the base.

Instead……

His eyes fell on the backpack that had been thrown in the corner last night and had not yet been hidden by Jian Ning.

Of course, the things that suddenly appeared in the room could not escape his sight.

When he noticed the backpack, he found that it was filled with various foods. Although Shen Yan had some guesses, Jian Ning seemed to like all kinds of food very much, and it was not particularly abnormal to store more snacks at home.

But yesterday, Jian Ning suddenly appeared at the gate of the base, carrying a backpack of food, which made Shen Yan doubt——

Jian Ning wanted to leave the base.

As soon as this guess emerged in his mind, Shen Yan felt the string in his brain suddenly tighten.

His Omega wanted to leave him?

The Alpha is already in a sensitive period, and his amber pupils hide an unremovable gloom at this moment.

Jian Ning didn’t notice Shen Yan’s expression. He just listened to their conversation and felt inexplicably relieved.

Yesterday, the man in white suddenly became distorted. At that moment, Jian Ning suspected that he was the one who infected the man.

He knew that humans would become aliens in some way, but he had been hiding from humans and other aliens outside the base before, and he didn’t know the route of infection. It was not until he returned from the ocean center that he learned that human infection seemed to be related to some contact with aliens.

Jian Ning has always known that he seems to be a little different from other alien species.

He did not have much desire for human flesh and blood. During the year outside the base, he had been searching everywhere for the few remaining expired foods to fill his stomach.

But he was not sure whether he had the same infectious ability.

Seeing Shen Yan hung up the call, Jian Ning asked in a low voice: “Is there someone else who was infected?”

Shen Yan glanced at him and said, “Yeah.”

“Under normal circumstances, only certain high-risk exposures to alien species can lead to infection. There’s something wrong with these people.”

“High-risk contact?”

Shen Yan: “Contact with body fluids, blood, etc.”

Jian Ning’s face suddenly froze.

He thought of the kiss yesterday that ended in an instant.

He licked Shen Yan’s lips, and then Shen Yan…

“…”

‘It’s over. I hope Shen Yan won’t be infected.’
