Neverland

Week 1 – 02

The body wash was honey-flavored.

When the amber-colored viscous liquid poured out of the slender neck of the bottle, a rich sweet fragrance escaped into the air. 13 endured the discomfort and rubbed the bath sponge without using the body wash. He rubbed for a long time and didn’t open it.

This really seemed to be a bottle of honey.

He remembered Janice Veseli’s sly smile and helplessly climbed out of the bath, washed his sticky hands clean with cold water.

Ten years had passed, Janice still liked to tease him so much. This Omega young man had liked to mess with him since long ago, such as adding milk to his black tea, mixing jam in his wine, and then after he fell into the trick, the young man would leave a small note with a grimace smiley and apologized with a mischievous smile on his face.

When Janice confessed to him, he wasn’t even sure if he was serious or just trying to play tricks on him again, but he didn’t think much of it because he couldn’t have responded to his feelings anyway, for one simple reason: he was allergic to Omega.

When he gave this answer blankly, Janice’s pretty white face twisted for a moment, showing a look that bordered on anger and disbelief, mixed with a bit of insulted hatred, then he turned his head and ran away, and ran away for ten years, never appearing in front of him again.

If it wasn’t because the spokesperson was too talkative, they probably wouldn’t have met again until they died.

13 leaned into the warm pool, the dense heat blurred his vision. He was thinking about things—this was rare for him. More often, he liked to let himself completely empty, let his body fit into the gap between the sun, the sea breeze, and earth, and let it give him a strong sense of freedom, as if his actions were no longer monitored, and neither the voice in his ears nor the online votes could sway his judgment and choice.

But living this life again, being surrounded by warm water, reuniting with his long-lost admirer, and the new contract he had made, made him think about many things, about his past life, his current situation, and the possible consequences in the future.

It didn’t take long for him to feel a headache. He took a bath towel and roughly wiped his hair, wrapped himself in a bathrobe and walked out of the room.

Not surprisingly, the Omega, who smelled as sweet as honey, was waiting outside his room, waving at him with a smile, “I prepared black tea and snacks, they’re salty.”

Thinking of the jar of honey just now, 13 dryly refused, “No need, thank you.”

“Are you going to rest, Captain?” Veseli asked disappointedly.

“Something?”

“I want to talk to you, can I go in?”

He thought for a moment then stepped aside, letting the other man in.

Veseli sat unceremoniously on the edge of the bed, placed the tray in his hands on the bedside table, poured himself a cup of black tea, and then reached for the long-necked honey jar that had just been soaked in the bath.

13 stood by the bed, watching him quietly with pitch-black eyes, waiting for him to speak.

“I think you should sit down first, Captain.” Veseli licked the honey stained on his lips with the tip of his pink tongue, revealing a rather seductive look, “It’s late in midnight, can’t you guess that I’m here to seduce you?”

13’s breath hitched and he tried his best to hold back the itch at the end of his nose.

Veseli pretended not to see his impatience, slowly and methodically unbuttoned his clothes, revealing a white and slender body: “I was dumb and stupid ten years ago, I knew nothing, I couldn’t attract you, I admit it. But today, when you see me like this, do you still have no desire at all?”

He spoke these few words very slowly, as if the content of the words didn’t matter, he just wanted to drag out his voice and sang a lazy and coquettish soft voice, so that all those who heard these words would focus on his pink lips trembling like petals, soft as cotton wool tongue, sweet as honey nasal voice—his words, naturally, weren’t addressed to 13 alone, and at the same moment, he moved at a forty-five degree angle with his side and back facing 13, showing his best posture to another perspective: God’s perspective.

13 frowned. On one hand, he didn’t like this way of gaining popularity. On the other hand, he felt a little hot.

Uncharacteristically hot.

Slowly but without delay, Veseli removed every inch of fabric from his body, exposing every inch of his skin to the air. He smiled at the ceiling as if there was an invisible camera there, then caught 13’s palm and asked softly, “Captain, do you smell me?”

13 didn’t pull his hand back.

“You know, I rely on this body to live. I rely on this scent to control my men.” The naked Omega young man pressed his entire body to the other man’s chest with greater force. He could feel the captain’s heart beat growing faster, “But I’ve been marked long ago, after leaving you, a lowly, shitty driver stole my inhibitor, then forced me to beg him on a night in heat, forced me to lick the tips of his filthy shoes, and then—” he leaned down, his waist sunken, “—I cried out, called him ‘Captain,’ begged him to embrace me , imagining your face in my ultimate bliss with him…”

“…Stop talking.” 13 took a step back, he didn’t want to hear a word. Although he really didn’t hear much, but the Omega’s scent was blowing on him, the whispers exhaled in his ears were like poison to his skin that made him feel unbearable. His body reacted in familiar ways: itching, skin tingling, breathlessness. And in unfamiliar ways: he felt very hot, so hot that he turned into a pool of lava.

He wasn’t aware of his pheromones, so he didn’t know that the strong smell of tobacco had filled the entire confined space. Veseli’s breathing has becoming more and more rapid, he was also trying as hard as he could to suppress himself, he couldn’t show ugliness in front of the camera, not even half of it.

The young man with humped red cheeks tried talking as a mean to stay awake: “Captain, do you know that marked Omega will no longer be attractive to other Alpha? And do you know how I seduce those Alpha, Beta, even animals? Don’t you feel a little curious when you see me on the big screen every weekend?”

“That’s… your business…” 13 gasped, holding his fingers to the metal fence by the wall, and slowly sat down on the ground. The cold floor made him feel very comfortable, while at the same time, the more searing body heat made him feel that his body was floating, and he couldn’t lift the slightest strength, “What did you do to me?”

Veseli murmured to himself, “At that time, I could hardly survive. I was so despicable, weak and greedy, and the number of votes barely enough to survive couldn’t satisfy my needs, and the inferior Alpha couldn’t feed me. That’s when the man showed up. He gave me a tube of drug, and he said to me, I can sell my body endlessly anywhere, anytime like a bitch with that drug. It’ll make those stupid men can’t live without me, but it also would leave me insatiable for a lifetime, until I die in the tangle of flesh…”

13’s pupils shrank slightly: “You, now, u-used this drug.”

“I added it to the honey.” Veseli smiled sweetly, “Captain, you’re so pitiful. All this time you still haven’t respond, I just doubt if you’re still sick, oh, sorry, I forgot that you really are sick. Look at your neck, it’s all red, because of allergies, right? Do you feel breathless? You also stuttered just now. You’re obviously dying to save face, you don’t want to stutter, so you always ignore us.”

13 bit his lower lip, trying to use blood to dilute the honey fragrance rushing into the tip of his nose: “Who gave you the drug?”

Veseli ignored him: “Even if you’re allergic to Omega, you can’t control yourself from reacting to Omega’s pheromones. Captain, you really want to hug me now, don’t you? You feel hot and want to hold me tight and do it with me, but you feel itchy and want to strangle me, the allergen, don’t you?”

13 shook his head and didn’t say anything.

“Captain, did you know that people on the other side of the sea don’t have Alpha, Beta or Omega, they’re only men or women. Women get pregnant but don’t go into heat, men would be tempted but they wouldn’t lose control.” He leaned over and said close to his ear, “And we, the lower animals, transformed into brutes whose sexual impulses are greater than everything else and put in this huge prison. They love to see you like this now, trying to overcome your instincts, but driven by them, wanting to be free, but being put into a collar, forced by desire to embrace an allergen, suffocating in pain when you reach orgasm—listen carefully, that person, the one who gives orders in your ear, are they gasping with excitement, screaming, can’t wait to see more?”


“Who’s controlling you?” 13 suddenly asked.
