Chapter 68 - 3.8 Liar
When Oliver woke up again, his mind was so disoriented that he couldn’t remember what he was doing before. The familiar ceiling of his room entered his sight and he groaned at the sluggishness and bone creaking ache all over his body. What the heck was he doing before? It was like he had just been ran over by a—his eyes flew open abruptly and he shot up sitting. In an instant, soreness spread through his hips and a weird sensation lingered in his butthole. Oliver grimaced. Colors drained from his face and he probed around the back of his neck in panic, only sighing in relief when he found the intact gland patch there.
Unfamiliar memories popped up in his mind one after another and he buried his face into his palms, groaning. "What have you done, stupid Oliver...? How can you just ask a stranger to be your mate? Idiot, you’re such an idiot!" Not only did he offer such an audacious request, he even told the Alpha to stick his fingers into his ass. Ugh! Just thinking about it was enough to make him want to die!
When Haga—Oliver’s old nanny and personal servant—entered the room, what she found was Oliver who was curling under the blanket, brooding. Shaking her head helplessly, she pulled the blanket off Oliver. "How long do you intend to stay on the bed, Oliv? You have been sleeping for three whole days!"
"Three days?!" Oliver exclaimed in shock.
Haga shook her head in apprehension. "You silly child. You should have told me that you’re expecting your first heat! What should I do if something irreversible happened to you?!"
Oliver shrunk his head guiltily. "I thought it was only a mild cold...but—"
"No buts! Here, you should eat something light to recover your health." Haga huffed and pushed the food trolley forward. The delicious fragrance of meat congee wafted into Oliver’s nose and his stomach growled loudly. That’s right, he hadn’t eaten for three days. Seeing Oliver start to eat with gusto, the nanny couldn’t resist curling her lips. "Do you have any idea how worried I am because you didn’t return all night? Fortunately, the one who brought you back is a Beta, otherwise who knows what will happen to you." Even thinking about it still gave Haga lingering fear. If an omega in heat were to walk around the street, there was no difference between them and a fragrant meat amidst a pack of hungry wolves.
"A beta...?" Oliver’s jaws dropped open. "A Beta brought me back?"
"Otherwise?!" Haga glared angrily and Oliver returned to eating his food obediently. "You should be grateful that no Alpha found you in that state. The Beta also injected you with a dose of heat suppressor..."
