After Differentiation, I Marked My Arch-nemesis - Chapter 21

The Alpha’s sharp teeth bit into the Omega’s delicate gland on the back of her neck.

Lu Yaoyi instantly winced and let out a soft cry of pain. Trapped tightly in Jiang Youli’s embrace, she could only tremble and endure the sharp pain coming from the back of her neck.

Jiang Youli…

Actually bit through her gland…

Jiang Youli was marking her…

She clearly remembered her physiology teacher explaining that it was very painful when an Omega was bitten through their gland for the first time by an Alpha. But she never expected it to hurt so much that she couldn’t help but shed tears.

She instinctively tightened her grip on Jiang Youli’s clothes.

Then, the Alpha’s highly aggressive pheromones surged into the Omega’s gland and spread throughout her body with her blood, seeping into every single cell.

They merged together, as if the natural life of a forest had enveloped a romantic sea of fragrant flowers. Wherever they went, they bloomed with vibrant colors.

It was fresh and enchanting.

The moment the Alpha’s pheromones entered her body, Lu Yaoyi’s legs gave out, and she sank to her knees. The Alpha’s pheromones were the perfect medicine for an Omega. She weakly held the fire-hot Jiang Youli in her arms. The restless heat and desire in her body gradually subsided as the Alpha’s pheromones merged with her blood.

She smelled the scent of fir that kept coming from Jiang Youli and whispered, “Dingding…”

Jiang Youli was in a daze, biting Lu Yaoyi’s gland. She felt as if she had arrived at a beautiful, secret realm filled with colorful and exquisite hyacinths. She was completely surrounded by the sweet and rich fragrance of hyacinths, and the Omega’s pheromones kept luring her instincts.

The powerful Alpha pheromones swallowed the Omega’s pheromones whole.

The scent of fir in the air grew stronger.

Her body was excited, and her pheromones were roaring and surging.

But her mind was getting heavier and heavier.

Qiao Yixun listened to Lu Yaoyi and frantically searched her backpack. Only an Alpha-specific pheromone blocker could stop Jiang Youli’s pheromones from spreading. But how would an Omega like Lu Yaoyi have an Alpha-specific pheromone blocker? Even she, an Alpha, didn’t bring one.

However, she believed it when she found one in Lu Yaoyi’s backpack.

There really was an Alpha-specific pheromone blocker.

Alphas’ pheromones naturally repelled each other, and she was already struggling to handle Jiang Youli’s powerful pheromones. She immediately took out the pheromone blocker.

She looked up, and the sight in front of her made her freeze.

Not only were Jiang Youli and Lu Yaoyi hugging each other intimately, but Jiang Youli was also biting the back of Lu Yaoyi’s neck…

This meant…

Jiang Youli was marking Lu Yaoyi…

Qiao Yixun stared blankly at the two of them hugging. She quickly snapped out of her shock and used the Alpha-specific pheromone blocker spray on them.

The peach-scented pheromone blocker instantly dissolved the powerful Alpha pheromones.

The only scent left in the air was peach.

Jiang Youli’s clean, fair face was flushed a lovely red, which spread all the way to her neck. The severe pain from her lower body continued to consume her consciousness.

Her eyes became unfocused and distant.

Her eyelids grew heavier.

Slowly, she finally lost consciousness and fell into a deep sleep on Lu Yaoyi’s shoulder.

Her entire body was still burning hot.

The Alpha pheromones that had filled the air were finally gone.

Qiao Yixun’s body also felt a sense of relief it had never felt before. She looked at the two of them, especially Lu Yaoyi, who had been marked by Jiang Youli.

She felt extremely conflicted.

Her lips parted, and she asked in a hoarse voice, “Yaoyao, are you okay?”

Lu Yaoyi was almost forced into heat by Jiang Youli’s pheromones. Luckily, Jiang Youli marked her, which stabilized her body. Now, besides her legs being weak, there was no other discomfort. The only thing that still hurt was her bitten gland.

She couldn’t help but complain about Jiang Youli.

That little rascal just differentiated into an Alpha, and she didn’t even know how to be gentle.

It hurt so much.

She shook her head and replied to Qiao Yixun, “I’m fine…”

Qiao Yixun looked at Lu Yaoyi’s flushed face, which was blooming with charm and seduction. She took out her phone and made a call. “I’m going to call an ambulance first.”

The pheromone blocker only temporarily dissolved the Alpha pheromones in the air.

Jiang Youli had only just differentiated. Her pheromones were very unstable and could erupt at any moment, so she had to be taken to the hospital for treatment.

“Okay,” Lu Yaoyi said.

She raised her hand and supported the sleeping Jiang Youli on her shoulder, letting her lean against her. Even through her clothes, she could feel Jiang Youli’s body was still hot. She looked down at Jiang Youli and gently caressed her flushed cheeks.

Her eyes were filled with so much affection that it seemed like water could seep out.

Every cell in her body was telling her that this was her Alpha.

The Alpha who just differentiated and marked her.

After calling the ambulance, Qiao Yixun looked at Lu Yaoyi, who was holding Jiang Youli.

She was filled with confusion.

It seemed like she understood something, yet she didn’t. Not only had Lu Yaoyi allowed Jiang Youli to mark her, but she was also gently stroking her cheek.

Is this something arch-nemesis would do?

“Don’t worry,” she said. “The ambulance will be here soon.”

“Okay,” Lu Yaoyi nodded gently.

A moment later, the nearby community managers arrived before the ambulance.

Jiang Youli’s sudden differentiation in public had caused several Omegas in the nearby streets and alleys to go into heat. Luckily, someone had notified the community managers in time, which allowed the Omegas to get their heat under control.

Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Jiang Youli was quickly taken to the hospital in an ambulance. Qiao Yixun went with her, but Lu Yaoyi, with her still-weak legs, went home.

When Lu Yaoyi got home, she locked herself in her room. She leaned against the door and slowly sank to the floor. She was surrounded by the rich scent of hyacinths mixed with fir. The scent of fir constantly reminded her that Jiang Youli had marked her. She didn’t know if she was too happy or if the bitten gland on the back of her neck hurt so much.

She suddenly curled up and hugged her knees, crying.

When she first found out that Jiang Youli had a 99% chance of differentiating into an Omega, she was disappointed for a moment. This was because an Omega’s body could only be soothed by an Alpha’s pheromones during their heat, allowing them to live a peaceful life.

Besides…

She was an S-class Omega, who went into heat more easily than a regular Omega.

She needed a large number of inhibitors to get through her heat.

Otherwise, she could lose her life if she wasn’t careful.

But even with Jiang Youli having a 99% chance of differentiating into an Omega, it didn’t stop her from loving her.

She had fallen in love with Jiang Youli when she was still a Beta. No matter if Jiang Youli was a Beta, an Omega, or an Alpha, she loved her.

She had prepared herself to never be marked by an Alpha and to get through her heat with inhibitors for the rest of her life. But Jiang Youli unexpectedly differentiated into an Alpha, and she… had actually been marked by her…

Even if it was just a temporary mark.

Even if Jiang Youli had marked her while she was in a daze.

Her soul and her sensitive body were greatly satisfied and comforted. Her blood was now tainted with a scent that only belonged to Jiang Youli.

She buried her head and smelled her clothes.

This is Jiang Youli’s scent…

She’s so happy.

She sat on the floor, hugging her slender body, and cried for a while.

Then she wiped away her tears and walked to her desk.

She sat down and took out an old, yellowing notebook from her drawer. She flipped through it from the first page until she reached the blank pages. Then she picked up a pen and wrote a few sentences.

—September 29, 2021.

—Wednesday.

—Jiang Youli differentiated into an Alpha today. She temporarily marked me and made me her Omega for a brief moment. But I want to be her Omega forever.

—I want her to enter my body and mark me for life.

In the evening, Lu Meishan happily returned home from work and found that only Lu Yaoyi’s room light was on. She wanted to tell her the good news that Jiang Youli had differentiated into an Alpha. She went upstairs and knocked on her door. “Sweetheart.”

A moment later, the door opened from the inside. Lu Yaoyi appeared at the door. “Mom, what’s wrong?”

“I heard…” Lu Meishan said, then paused.

She looked at Lu Yaoyi, and her expression suddenly became serious. The smile on her face instantly vanished. “Sweetheart, why do you smell like an Alpha?”

“Were you marked by an Alpha?”

“Yeah,” Lu Yaoyi nodded.

Lu Meishan was a little angry. She smelled the fir scent coming from Lu Yaoyi and her gentle expression turned serious. “Which Alpha marked you? Are you dating someone at school? Sweetheart, why didn’t you and your mother tell me?”

“You’re an S-class Omega. Don’t you know that once you’re marked by an Alpha, the effect of inhibitors will gradually become ineffective? If you get marked by an Alpha a lot, you’ll become more and more dependent on them, and you might even become inseparable from them. Do you know these consequences, sweetheart?”

“Mom,” Lu Yaoyi said, looking at Lu Meishan unhurriedly. “Dingding marked me.”

Her calm tone was filled with an excitement and a smile she couldn’t hide.

Lu Meishan was stunned. “Dingding marked you?”

“Yeah,” Lu Yaoyi said.

“I just heard from Uncle Li that Dingding differentiated into an Alpha and was taken to the hospital by her classmate,” Lu Meishan said. “How did you get marked by Dingding?”

Lu Yaoyi told her the whole story.

After listening, Lu Meishan’s face lit up. She was no longer angry when she found out that Jiang Youli had marked Lu Yaoyi. It felt as if a heavy weight had been lifted from her heart. She had always hoped that her precious daughter would find an Alpha that she and Guan Luyu could be at ease with for the rest of her life.

Now that Jiang Youli had differentiated into an Alpha, she was very happy.

If Jiang Youli and her precious daughter could get together, she would be even happier.

She looked at Lu Yaoyi and let out a sigh of relief. “I’m relieved if it’s Dingding.”

Lu Yaoyi’s lips curved into a smile.

See? My mom doesn’t even mind that you marked me.

When will you love me, Jiang Youli?

She said to herself.

Lu Meishan pulled Lu Yaoyi’s hand and walked into her room. She was still a little unaccustomed to the scent of an Alpha on Lu Yaoyi. “Didn’t Dingding have a 99% chance of differentiating into an Omega? Why did she suddenly differentiate into an Alpha?”

Lu Yaoyi thought that this must be fate.

It must be that a higher power purposefully made Jiang Youli differentiate into an Alpha so she could be with her.

She hid a smile at the corner of her lips. “Dingding is that one percent exception.”

And she differentiated into a powerful Alpha.

She and Jiang Youli were probably a fated match.

“Dingding really is that one percent exception,” Lu Meishan said, pulling Lu Yaoyi to the sofa in the room and sitting down. “Sweetheart, you’ve been marked by Dingding now… So are you and Dingding… Are you two dating?”

“No,” Lu Yaoyi said.

“No?” Lu Meishan asked.

“She marked me while she was in a daze. She probably doesn’t even know she marked me,” Lu Yaoyi said, lowering her eyes, the light in them dimming slightly. “Mom, this is between Dingding and me. I want to handle it alone with her.”

“Okay, sweetheart,” Lu Meishan said after thinking about it. “Then you and Dingding can handle this by yourselves.”

Adults shouldn’t interfere with the children’s business.

She gently caressed Lu Yaoyi’s face. “Uncle Li said that we don’t know when Dingding will wake up. How about we go to the hospital to visit her later?”

“Okay,” Lu Yaoyi said.

“I hope Dingding wakes up soon,” Lu Meishan said.

Lu Yaoyi didn’t say anything.

She was really looking forward to seeing Jiang Youli’s reaction when she woke up and found out that she had differentiated into an Alpha. She was even more excited for Jiang Youli to find out that she had marked her…

She really wanted to see Jiang Youli’s embarrassed expression.

It would be so fun.

She looked at Lu Meishan and called out, “Mom.”

“Hmm?” Lu Meishan asked.

“Can you help me put some medicine on my gland?” Lu Yaoyi said, suddenly shyly touching the back of her neck. “Dingding bit through my gland when she marked me.”

This time, she would definitely hold Jiang Youli accountable.

Lu Meishan smiled. “Okay, I’ll go downstairs and get the first aid kit.”
