After Being Marked By A Love Rival - Chapter 77

Qi Musi was a woman of her word.

She was indeed harboring a desire to be intimate with Xie Rong. After all, she was a normal adult Alpha and naturally craved close contact with someone she felt affection for.

However, firstly, due to her previous “mistake,” she had already bitten Xie Rong once; and secondly, Qi Musi had promised Xie Rong that this time, Xie Rong could bite her back. Therefore, no matter how much her teeth ached in her heart, Qi Musi had to suppress her impulse to mark and bite.

But it didn’t matter. Whether she bit Xie Rong or was bitten by Xie Rong, Qi Musi was immensely looking forward to and enjoying it.

Although it was difficult for an Alpha to overcome the inherent rejection in their bones, Qi Musi didn’t mind, and she believed she could do it.

After all, this was intimacy with the person she loved.

Thinking about the last time she bit Xie Rong, Qi Musi narrowed her eyes, and her fingertips couldn’t help but touch the back of her own neck…

She wondered what it would feel like to be bitten by Xie Rong this time.

Soon after, Qi Musi truly got her opportunity.

It was Xie Rong’s susceptible period (rut).

Xie Rong’s susceptible period this time came fiercely and a few days early, catching her completely off guard.

She couldn’t even attend class that day and had to take time off to stay in her dorm room.

The thick, sweet scent of pear blossoms spread unrestrainedly in the dorm room, attempting to stain everything around it with its scent and mark it as its territory. Even the last trace of sanity in her mind, which told her this was a dorm room, a public space, was useless.

After all, occupying and marking had become an instinct engraved in an Alpha’s bones.

Xie Rong felt that the suppressive patch wasn’t even working very well.

She didn’t know why her susceptible period reaction was so intense this time. Previously, one suppressive patch was enough to solve the issue, but now it simply couldn’t.

Moreover, it showed signs of becoming even more severe. It seemed she had to go to the infirmary for a suppressive injection.

But in her current state… she probably couldn’t even step out the door.

Xie Rong lay on the bed, her whole body hot as if with a high fever. Her exhaled breath felt like it could scorch her. A similarly unbearable heat was in her body, making her uncomfortable.

Xie Rong tightly gripped the bedsheet, feeling annoyed, and at the same time, she felt another desire the craving to embrace something.

Having fallen into her susceptible period, not only was she more emotionally sensitive, but her sense of smell was also much sharper.

Xie Rong could clearly smell traces of her roommate’s scent in the dorm, in addition to her own pheromones. Among these, the scent from Qi Musi opposite her was the one that stirred her heart the most.

Xie Rong closed her eyes, her eyelashes lightly trembling.

She had to admit that at this moment, Qi Musi’s pheromones were… as fatal and alluring to her as an Omega’s pheromones.

If it were in the past, Xie Rong absolutely couldn’t have imagined that she would be smelling an Alpha’s pheromones during her susceptible period and be so deeply drawn to them.

But at this very moment, she was impatiently craving more.

Xie Rong paused, sat up, and glanced across the room.

Finally, she couldn’t suppress the thought in her heart, bit her lip, and then quietly climbed into Qi Musi’s bed.

The moment she lifted the curtain and entered, Xie Rong clearly smelled Qi Musi’s scent in the bed. Her face flushed, and she secretly cursed herself for such behavior, which was truly… bizarre and perverse.

However, Xie Rong, who was already in her susceptible period, didn’t want to restrain herself now.

Besides, she and Qi Musi were a couple; there was nothing wrong with sleeping in her bed.

Alphas are indeed highly repulsed by their own gender, especially Alphas in their susceptible period. Yet, Xie Rong was the exact opposite right now; not only was there no repulsion, but she was immersed even more.

Her eyelashes trembled slightly, as if she couldn’t look at herself. She kept her eyes closed, with traces of shamed annoyance in her eyes, but her actions were very honest. She tightly hugged Qi Musi’s quilt, just as if she were hugging the person herself.

Xie Rong bit her lower lip with her teeth, not daring to breathe excessively, for fear that she might do something or make some noise.

The initial phase of the susceptible period was naturally the most difficult, but Xie Rong felt much better under the soothing influence of Qi Musi’s pheromones.

She buried her face in the quilt, her head resting on Qi Musi’s pillow. She was wrapped entirely in Qi Musi’s pheromones, like being in the other’s embrace, and even the dry, hot emotions subsided a lot.

But these were merely superficial comforts, far from… far from the real person.

Qi Musi naturally didn’t go to class but also took the day off and returned to the dorm.

She knew it was Xie Rong’s susceptible period today, so she was worried in her heart. After all, Xie Rong’s condition looked… even worse than when she was last tricked.

Qi Musi wanted to come and take care of Xie Rong. If anything happened, she could help in time.

As soon as Qi Musi opened the dorm door, she smelled a strong pheromone scent. Her body stiffened, and her breathing subconsciously deepened.

It wasn’t anger, but… another kind of emotion.

Qi Musi entered the dorm and closed the door.

It seemed Xie Rong’s situation was more serious than she had thought.

Didn’t she put on a suppressive patch? Why was it as if she hadn’t.

Qi Musi first helped open the balcony door and window to air out the smell, then she walked inside and quietly said, “Xiao Rong?”

She thought Xie Rong was lying on her own bed, so Qi Musi naturally stood under Xie Rong’s bed and called out. But suddenly, a slight movement came, and Qi Musi raised an eyebrow slightly.

The sound seemed… to be coming from her own bed?

So Qi Musi walked a few steps forward and sure enough, found the pear blossom scent was heavier there.

She had a guess in her heart.

“Xiao Rong…?”

Xie Rong could no longer ignore it. She stirred and then said, “…Mm.”

Xie Rong’s face was not only red because of her susceptible period, but more so because of shyness. After all, her behavior was truly…

Xie Rong closed her eyes, unable to describe it.

Qi Musi curled her lips, leaned against her bed frame, and asked with a smile, “How did Xiao Rong end up in my bed?”

Xie Rong didn’t answer.

Qi Musi was not in a hurry. After waiting for a moment, she took off her shoes, climbed the bed ladder, and came onto her own bed.

Hearing the movement, Xie Rong’s body slightly stiffened and she dared not look up even more.

The end of the bed dipped, Qi Musi had climbed up.

Since it was daytime and the bed curtain was opened, Xie Rong’s position lying in bed was easily seen by Qi Musi. She paused, her eyes darkened, and then she smiled lightly and approached.

She placed one hand on Xie Rong’s shoulder and lowered her body, “Why are you lying in my bed and still hugging my quilt?”

Xie Rong’s cheeks were redder, and she couldn’t answer.

Moreover, because of Qi Musi’s proximity, the familiar scent and pheromone of the other person became even richer. Xie Rong was currently using all her effort to restrain herself, let alone spare the energy to think of an excuse.

So, when faced with Qi Musi’s question, she couldn’t answer a single word.

Qi Musi leaned over and hugged Xie Rong. Feeling the heat on her body and the strong pheromones, her eyes dimmed, and then she reached out and played with Xie Rong’s hair.

“Does Xiao Rong feel very uncomfortable right now?”

That was a certainty.

An Alpha who is in the susceptible period and unable to control themselves has only one way to relieve it: marking.

Qi Musi knew this well, and she also… had deliberately come.

She laughed lightly, leaning close to Xie Rong, pressing against her, “It seems what I said before is about to come true very soon.”

Xie Rong subconsciously reached out and hugged Qi Musi, burying her face in the other’s shoulder and taking a deep breath. She felt the agitation in her body ease considerably, as if she had been soothed. Only then did she have the presence of mind to reply, “What is coming true?”

Qi Musi chuckled and moved closer to Xie Rong, whispering in her ear, “Naturally, it’s fulfilling my promise to let Xiao Rong mark me.”

Xie Rong paused. Because of a certain word, she subconsciously tightened her grip on Qi Musi’s clothes, then looked up at her, her eyes filled with a deep black color.

“Are you sure?”

“Of course.” Qi Musi’s eyes held a smile, and she answered without hesitation.

Xie Rong narrowed her eyes. Although she was still suffering from the discomfort of the susceptible period, her reason was not completely lost. She understood the meaning of Qi Musi’s words.

Xie Rong pursed her lips, “But you are an Alpha. If you are marked by another Alpha, it will probably be uncomfortable.” Xie Rong was telling the truth after all, she had experienced it herself.

Although… at the time, she had other feelings besides repulsion, the discomfort back then was real, and she worried that Qi Musi might not be able to bear it.

She was even more concerned that the other person was just speaking in the heat of the moment.

But even while she was trying to persuade her, Xie Rong’s fingers involuntarily hooked around Qi Musi’s neck and then rubbed the back of her neck, intentionally and unintentionally tracing the gland area.

Qi Musi slightly trembled at Xie Rong’s touch.

She pressed Xie Rong’s arm, moved even closer, and breathed into her ear, “Do you want to, Xiao Rong?”

Seeing Xie Rong still hesitating, she increased her intensity and laughed lightly, “I want to be marked by you too. Will you bite me?”

This sentence successfully shattered Xie Rong’s last trace of reason. She exerted a little force, flipped over, and pressed down on Qi Musi.

Xie Rong looked down at her. Her body was still hot from the onset of the susceptible period, her fingers were burning, and even her breath was hot.

Xie Rong said, “Are you certain?” Before Qi Musi could answer, she continued, “Even if you regret it now, you can’t escape.”

How could Qi Musi regret it? She was looking forward to it too much. So, Qi Musi’s eyes held an alluring smile, and she frankly allowed Xie Rong to proceed.

Xie Rong leaned down slightly, just as she had done in her dreams before, and moved closer to Qi Musi.

She didn’t immediately move the other person’s hair aside. Instead, she first lowered her head to kiss Qi Musi, intertwining their breaths.

Qi Musi passionately held her, her tongue entwining with Xie Rong’s.

After the kiss, the two finally let go of each other.

Xie Rong’s eyes were dark, and while steadily controlling her breathing, she reached out and played with Qi Musi’s hair.

Qi Musi cooperated by turning her body, allowing Xie Rong to move aside her slightly curled long hair, exposing the warm gland at the back of her neck.

At this moment, the cherry scented pheromones, mixed with the smell of wine, became even more intense, making Xie Rong feel dizzy, accompanied by a feeling of arousal.

Xie Rong slowly moved closer until her breath sprayed on the skin.

Qi Musi raised her eyes slightly and said with a light laugh, “Xiao Rong.”

Xie Rong held her fingers and then gently kissed the area.

Qi Musi’s body suddenly tensed, feeling a little unaccustomed. After all, the gland was usually only touched by herself. This was the first time it was touched by someone else, especially by her lover.

Qi Musi’s eyelids trembled slightly, restraining her shaky breathing.

She didn’t know why her gland, which usually had no reaction when she touched it, became so agitated just from Xie Rong’s light kiss.

After an unknown amount of time, Qi Musi finally calmed down. Her face was flushed, and her voice carried a slight tremor.

“…Continue.”

Xie Rong squeezed her fingers reassuringly, then slightly parted her lips until her firm teeth touched the area, then bit down and sank in.

And began to transmit her pheromones.

Qi Musi’s body first tensed in pain, followed by a slight tremor, and she instinctively wanted to escape Xie Rong’s control, like a rabbit caught in a trap trying to break free.

But an Alpha already in the state of marking would never allow her to escape.

So Xie Rong held her, forcefully gripping Qi Musi’s shoulders, not allowing her to struggle in the slightest.

Xie Rong’s breathing was burning, and even the temperature in her mouth was particularly hot. Qi Musi was momentarily unable to distinguish whether the back of her own neck was hotter or the other’s temperature was hotter.

She tightly closed her eyes, the corners of her eyes were completely red, tinged with a few tears that had seeped out. Her body was trembling like a branch beaten by the wind and rain.

“Xiao Rong…” Qi Musi’s words were fragmented, and she couldn’t even form a complete sentence.

Her fingers and toes curled up tightly, but even so, she couldn’t resist the mixed emotions of discomfort and an indescribable comfort.

The Alpha instinct made her reject being bitten and marked by another person, but at the same time, she was thrilled and delighted by the intimate contact with the person she loved.

This painful yet itchy emotion was hard to resist, and she even instinctively wanted to cry.

After an unknown amount of time, Xie Rong finally let go of her.

Qi Musi slightly opened her eyes. The view before her was blurred with moisture. Then she felt a pair of warm hands brush across the corners of her eyes, wiping them.

Qi Musi finally let out a sigh of relief.

Xie Rong felt much better after the recent act. She quietly asked Qi Musi, “Do you feel better?”

Qi Musi looked up at her, the corners of her eyes still holding a captivating smile and a flush of red, “You really…”

Xie Rong lowered her eyes, waiting for her words.

Qi Musi chuckled, “You took my life.”

Xie Rong’s earlobes turned red.

Qi Musi reached out and hooked Xie Rong’s neck, unable to resist drawing closer to her, wanting to continue the intimacy, but Xie Rong subtly avoided it.

“My susceptible period hasn’t passed yet, don’t provoke me.” She pinched Qi Musi’s waist in a warning manner.

However, Qi Musi was completely unfazed. In fact, she even wanted to continue to provoke Xie Rong.

Xie Rong saw her intention and narrowed her eyes.

Qi Musi kissed Xie Rong’s neck, and then whispered a sentence in Xie Rong’s ear.

Xie Rong’s eyes darkened, and then she said, “If that’s the case, then let’s do it again.”

Qi Musi stroked her back and said with a light laugh, “Alright.”

The dorm room, which had just been aired out, was once again filled with the intermingled scents of pear blossoms and cherries.
