Out of Control (Second Update)

After the examination, Si Jinyan took Chi Li back with him.

Before they left, Lu Jiu specifically reminded Chi Li, "Si Jinyan's condition has been unstable lately. His rut has been building up for a while, and he'll probably enter his susceptible period in the next few days."

In the past, Si Jinyan's susceptible periods had followed no pattern. He could only forcibly suppress them himself, then inject a special suppressant once he reached a certain threshold.

After Chi Li arrived, Si Jinyan's susceptible periods gradually became more regular. Though they were still far from normal, he no longer had to endure the torment of them every moment like before.

Lu Jiu kindly warned, "This time will probably be a little serious."

Chi Li nodded. He had seen Si Jinyan in even more terrifying states during his susceptible period, so he had long been prepared for this.

After returning to Si Jinyan's residence, Chi Li resumed his formerly leisurely life. This time, however, his mind was no longer as peaceful as before.

It was time to consider leaving.

Ever since that kidnapping incident, Chi Li had felt an inexplicable unease.

Somehow, he sensed that he had already been drawn into a vortex. The calmer things seemed, the more cautious he needed to be.

In the office, Qiu Rui had just finished checking a document when his private phone rang. It was Lu Jiu again.

Recently, Lu Jiu had always used Si Jinyan's physical condition as an excuse to call him, and Qiu Rui had no choice but to answer.

Qiu Rui's tone was calm. "What is it?"

Lu Jiu said somewhat happily, "Are you free tonight? I want to treat you to dinner."

Qiu Rui felt that Lu Jiu should be looking for the omegas surrounding him instead of pestering an alpha like him every day. Qiu Rui was not gay, nor was he interested in Lu Jiu. He said coldly, "If there's nothing else, I'm hanging up."

Lu Jiu grew anxious on the other end. "Hey, wait, I was joking."

Only then did Lu Jiu get to the point. "How was Si Jinyan's condition today?"

Lu Jiu called every day to ask about Si Jinyan's condition. If he called Si Jinyan directly, Si Jinyan definitely would not answer, and Lu Jiu said that Chi Li had stopped reporting the situation to him lately as well.

Qiu Rui thought it over carefully and said seriously, "I feel that the Marshal has become overly dependent on Chi Li."

Qiu Rui explained, "He never used to bring Chi Li over so often."

For someone who had followed Si Jinyan for over twenty years, Qiu Rui had never seen Si Jinyan so close to anyone.

Lu Jiu pondered for a while on the other end. It was hard to say whether this was a good thing or a bad thing. "I'll talk to him in a few days."

At Si Jinyan's residence, Chi Li and Si Jinyan had been almost inseparable lately. They were either in the study or the bedroom. Si Jinyan showed no restraint, and Chi Li often ended up exhausted enough to fall asleep.

An hour later, Chi Li slowly opened his eyes. Si Jinyan seemed to have just finished and moved away from his side.

The haze in Chi Li's eyes gradually cleared. He asked hoarsely, "Is your susceptible period about to begin?"

Si Jinyan held Chi Li in his arms and worried at the back of his neck with his teeth. His words were somewhat muffled. "Mm. It should be soon."

In Chi Li's eyes, Si Jinyan had a minor episode almost every day and a major one every week. Treating Si Jinyan had become routine; Chi Li's body understood and adapted to Si Jinyan even better than his mind did.

That day, Si Jinyan returned early. Chi Li had been reading in the study when Si Jinyan scooped him up around the waist and carried him straight back to the bedroom.

Only after entering did Chi Li realize that the bedroom contained more things than ever before, piled on the table beside the bed.

Chi Li picked up a vial of medicine, unable to believe Si Jinyan had prepared it. Reading the words on it, he sounded slightly surprised. "Essential nutritional supplement for omegas during susceptible periods?"

An alpha's susceptible-period pheromones could often forcibly induce an omega's susceptible period. At the same time, omegas had far less stamina than alphas, while an alpha's susceptible period often lasted a week. Thus, many companion products had appeared on the market.

Chi Li picked up another one. "Omega soothing agent, omega susceptible-period vitamins..."

Finally, Chi Li picked up a plush toy. A thoughtful description was printed on it: If your omega likes cute things, this product can provide excellent comfort...

Chi Li looked at Si Jinyan, half surprised and half unable to believe it.

Seeing this, Si Jinyan's expression shifted as well. He found it difficult to explain. "I told Yuan Ru to prepare some things needed for the susceptible period. I didn't expect him to buy so much."

A rare look of embarrassment appeared on Si Jinyan's face.

For some reason, Chi Li found this version of Si Jinyan rather cute—more down-to-earth.

Chi Li looked at the childish plush toy and laughed again.

Si Jinyan stepped forward, suddenly pulled Chi Li into his arms, tossed those things aside, and bit Chi Li's lips as though slightly annoyed.

Who knew how much time passed.

Chi Li clutched Si Jinyan's shoulder. His voice had already gone hoarse, and he could only remind Si Jinyan this way. Yet he suddenly felt rough patterns on Si Jinyan's arm and rubbed them for a moment.

A few seconds later, Chi Li abruptly came back to himself. His eyes widened as he looked at Si Jinyan's arm. Other than a scar, there was nothing there, yet Chi Li's heart sank with a chill. He had clearly felt it just now, like...

Raised scales.

Having completely entered his susceptible period, Si Jinyan was dissatisfied by Chi Li's distraction and made him refocus in a domineering manner.

Chi Li's thoughts scattered again like a kite with its string cut. When he grabbed Si Jinyan's arm again a moment later, he began to doubt whether that strange sensation had merely been his imagination.

Even before entering his susceptible period, Si Jinyan had anticipated that this episode would be more severely out of control than before. That was why he had Yuan Ru prepare so many things in advance.

By dawn, as Si Jinyan looked at the person before him, his urge to mark him grew stronger and stronger.

He gradually could no longer hear Chi Li's voice clearly. Only one thought remained in his mind, like a demon whispering in his ear, clamoring for him to mark Chi Li, to possess him completely.

There was something on Chi Li that attracted him even more than pheromones. It tempted him, telling him that they seemed destined to merge into one.

Chi Li also noticed that Si Jinyan's condition was becoming increasingly wrong. The heavy desire showed no sign of fading; instead, it only grew worse.

In the end, Si Jinyan suddenly bit the side of Chi Li's nape.

It was a peak Chi Li had never reached before, stimulating every nerve in his body.

Until he could no longer bear it and passed out.

Only much later did Si Jinyan, like a satiated beast, carefully and lovingly lick the treasure in his arms.
