She Said That Kisses and Hugs Are Needed for Redemption [Quick Transmigration] - Chapter 33
The white curtains swayed gently in the breeze as warm sunlight filtered through the gauze, casting a soft glow over the young girl’s clear, flushed profile.
“You’re in your special period; I can’t stay any longer. I’ll call two Omegas to come and take care of you.” Lu Xi held her breath, attempting to tuck the girl’s hand back under the covers, only to have her fingers lightly and skillfully hooked by the other.
A scalding heat transferred to her fingertips and traveled into her palm. A numbing, tingling sensation crept up her spine, and Lu Xi could distinctly feel her heart rate quickening.
“Can you, not leave?” Chi Xingcen curved her knuckles, hooking that slightly stiff hand. Perhaps the onset of her heat had clouded her mind; wrapped in the parched, heated atmosphere, she climbed bit by bit up the woman’s long, fair arm.
Generally speaking, after an Omega has been temporarily marked by an Alpha, even if the pheromones vanish, the Omega will develop unusual feelings for the Alpha who marked her during subsequent heat cycles. In such cases, ordinary suppressants are largely ineffective. The best solution is to mark them again to soothe the Omega’s extreme desire.
Having the memories of the original host, Lu Xi naturally knew this common knowledge.
But she didn’t want to take advantage of someone in a vulnerable state again. The previous marking had already filled her with regret; she couldn’t bring herself to do it a second time.
Prying Chi Xingcen’s hand off her wrist bit by bit, Lu Xi fought to maintain a shred of clarity. Her voice was low and hoarse: “Miss Chi, we can’t do this again.”
Before she could finish, the girl, who had been lying flat on the bed, grabbed the back of her hand and propped herself up, burying her head into Lu Xi’s embrace. “I feel so uncomfortable. Hurry, mark me.”
The girl’s voice was incredibly soft and sweet, laced with a hint of seductiveness. It was like snow melting on a mountain peak, cold spring water flowing slowly into the woman’s heart, stirring countless lingering fantasies.
No normal Alpha could withstand such provocation from an Omega, and even Lu Xi, who was new to this world, was no exception.
Threads of gardenia fragrance spread, tugging at the nerves Lu Xi was trying so hard to suppress. The gland at the back of her neck turned scalding. Surging Omega pheromones crashed against her as if trying to pull a cold, aloof deity down from a mountain peak into the mortal realm; the invitation was unmistakable.
The Omega, having lost all reason, was anxious and restless. Seeing the Alpha by the bed remain motionless, she simply used her strength to pull the woman down onto her.
As their burning bodies touched, the taut string in the Alpha’s mind snapped and melted instantly. Her gaze deepened, her eyes filled with scorching emotions. Her tea-colored pupils reflected the Omega’s flushed cheeks. The scent of cold snow swirled between them, leaving the Omega dazed for a long time.
Lu Xi still retained a sliver of consciousness. Bracing her elbows on either side, she looked down at the writhing girl. Her voice was pressed extremely low: “The special-effect suppressant will be here soon. Just hold on a bit longer.”
She then fished her phone out of her pocket and with great difficulty dialed a number. Noticing the girl whimpering from time to time, she placed the phone on the edge of the bed and turned on the speakerphone.
“Lu Li, grab two boxes of special-effect Omega pheromone suppressants and bring them, bring them home.”
Before she could finish, the restless Omega brushed a hand over her neck, rubbing back and forth against her protruding collarbone. Her pinky finger hooked the slightly open collar, unconsciously pulling it to the sides.
She put down the phone and quickly pinned the Omega’s hands. Her breathing grew heavy. “Miss Chi, stop messing around.”
Chi Xingcen had long since lost her senses. Her Omega instincts caused her to arch her body, striving to press even closer to the Alpha. The straps of her nightgown slowly slipped down amidst her movements, and the wide round neck became rumpled. Under the sunlight, the pale pink glowed softly, making her skin appear as white and smooth as snow.
“Young Master,” Lu Li had been listening silently for a while, hesitating between interrupting and staying quiet. Finally, she gritted her teeth and spoke: “Just the special-effect suppressant for the Omega? Do you need me to bring two boxes for Alphas as well?”
The sudden voice echoed in the heavy atmosphere of the room, breaking the lingering ambiguity.
Lu Xi took a deep breath and replied quickly, “Use your best judgment,” before hastily hanging up to prevent the person on the other end from hearing anything else strange.
She tossed the phone aside and looked back down, meeting the eyes of the half-awake Omega. Seeing that she seemed to be slowly coming to her senses, Lu Xi suddenly became flustered. “I, I didn’t do anything to you; I’ll get up right now.”
With her palms pressed against the edge of the bed, Lu Xi turned to leave, but the Omega grabbed her hand again.
“Why, won’t you let go?”
Chi Xingcen seemed to be in a state between dreaming and waking. She could see who was in front of her, but she couldn’t think about what she should be doing.
Following her instincts, she forced herself to sit up and buried her entire body in the Alpha’s embrace. Her cheek pressed firmly against the Alpha’s warm shoulder. Smelling the faint scent of cold snow, she closed her eyes and slowly leaned toward the Alpha’s scent gland at the nape of the neck.
Sensing her weakness, Lu Xi worried she might fall back onto the bed, so she could only support her waist and half-hold her. “Miss Chi, wait a little longer, the suppressant is almost, hiss!”
The soft tip of a tongue touched the gland at the back of her neck. An alien sensation shot straight to her head, and Lu Xi was completely lost.
One hand gripped the crumpled nightgown while the other moved up from the spine to press against the back of the Omega’s rounded head, forcing her to move back slightly.
Lu Xi’s eyes were bloodshot, her expression filled with intense emotion. Her hair tie slipped off, and her long hair tumbled down, veiling the desire stirred in her eyes.
“Miss Chi, you’ve provoked me too much.” The Alpha pulled the girl down into the quilts. The moment she opened her mouth, she captured the girl’s sweet, thin lips, murmuring unclearly, “I’m, sorry.”
As their lips touched, the long-parched Omega was like a fish returned to water. She became extremely proactive, striving to seize the breath from the Alpha’s mouth.
Supple long hair hung down on both sides, strands brushing against the Omega’s cheeks and blocking out the sunlight. In the dimness, she became even more immersed. Her fair arms reached out, slowly climbing onto the Alpha’s shoulders.
Knock, knock, knock.
A knock suddenly sounded at the door, followed by Lu Li’s slightly hesitant voice: “Young Master, the suppressants you asked for; should I bring them in?”
Lu Xi’s forehead tightened. Her fingertips clawed at the bedsheet as she tried her best to suppress the discomfort and dissatisfaction arising from the interruption.
Closing her eyes, she allowed her fluctuating emotions to level out. When she opened them again, she clearly saw the girl lying on the pillow, face flushed and looking terrified. Instantly, the irritation she had just suppressed flared up again.
How infuriating! Her fangs had just touched Chi Xingcen’s gland, and she was about to perform the crucial step when she was interrupted by that damned Lu Li!
Lu Xi rolled over and sat up. She grabbed her shirt from the floor, threw it over herself, and pulled the quilt over the flushed Chi Xingcen.
“Wait for me a moment, I’ll go get the suppressant.” She coughed twice, the hoarseness in her voice fading to a clearer tone. But as she went to button her shirt, something felt wrong.
Looking down, her rounded fingertips were moist and shimmering. Her neatly trimmed nails looked as if they were coated in a layer of moisture, reflecting an ambiguous luster in the sunlight.
The scent of gardenia wafted into her nose at just that moment, and Lu Xi’s heart, which had just calmed down, began to race again. Her peripheral vision caught the girl, who had pulled the quilt over her face, staring intently at her hand. Panicking, she retracted her gaze and, feigning composure, grabbed a tissue from the table to wipe the traces from her hand bit by bit.
After ensuring everything was in order, Lu Xi pulled the door open just a crack. Through this ten-centimeter gap, she glared fiercely at Lu Li and held out her hand, her tone stiff: “Give it here.”
Flustered by the glare, Lu Li snapped back to reality. Sensing she had done something bad, she tremblingly placed the suppressants in Lu Xi’s hand and hurriedly backed away. “I have urgent business to handle! If you need anything, Young Master, please contact me by phone!”
Before she even finished speaking, she had vanished without a trace.
“You’d better run fast!” Lu Xi clenched her fist and slammed the door shut.
Returning to the bedside, she didn’t dare look again at the girl who was now leaning against the headboard. She focused on opening the suppressant, preparing to apply it to the girl.
“You, move your hair aside. I’ll stick it on your gland.”
Chi Xingcen stared directly at the shy woman, her lips pressed thin and silent. Only when Lu Xi looked at her did she raise a jade-white hand, tilt her neck, and slowly gather her hair, exposing an Omega’s most vulnerable spot.
With the girl’s movements, the thin quilt slid down her smooth skin, revealing her faintly trembling shoulder blades.
Lu Xi swallowed hard, forcing herself to stay rational. She moved closer slowly, her hand trembling slightly as she held the suppressant amidst the onslaught of gardenia fragrance.
After a long while, she finally managed to apply the suppressant, sealing off most of the Omega pheromones. Lu Xi sat back and picked up the Alpha suppressant, preparing to apply it to herself.
Chi Xingcen closed her eyes. The heat in her body had subsided significantly, but for some reason, her longing for the Alpha before her hadn’t diminished in the slightest. She slowly raised her eyes, her gaze shimmering with suppressed, indescribable emotions as she took the suppressant from the Alpha’s hand.
“You helped me just now; now let me help you.” Without giving the Alpha a chance to refuse, Chi Xingcen sat up, pressed against the Alpha’s side, and brushed her long hair to the other side.
Her gaze fell upon the pink, slightly protruding gland, and Chi Xingcen couldn’t help but recall the sensation of licking it with the tip of her tongue earlier.
As her mind wandered, her fingertips lightly brushed against it. The person beside her trembled all over. Snapping out of it, she hurriedly pressed the suppressant on.
“It’s done.”
The woman, whose spine had shuddered, turned her head. She wanted to look at her, yet didn’t dare to.
Chi Xingcen tilted her head. “What’s wrong?”
Lu Xi’s eyes darted around, refusing to land on the Omega. Realizing the Omega seemed unaware, she stammered in a low voice: “You aren’t wearing your clothes.”
Chi Xingcen didn’t quite hear her. “What did you say?”
“You haven’t put your clothes on yet.” Lu Xi’s voice grew louder, and her gaze involuntarily landed on the Omega. Seeing some marks she had left behind, she grabbed the girl’s coat and draped it haphazardly over the Omega’s shoulders. “Hurry up and put it on, otherwise, otherwise, I’m going to see everything.”
The afternoon sun dimmed slightly, and the room fell into silence.
After a long time, Lu Xi, who was rummaging through the wardrobe for clothes, heard the Omega behind her murmur:
“Haven’t you already seen everything?”
