After Mistakenly Marking a Sickly, Yandere Beautiful Omega, I Was Forced Into a Flash Marriage - Chapter 13

“…Miss Xue, why the sudden intense interest in my private life?” Luo Yan looked at her with a dry laugh. She actually felt a brief impulse to kiss her just to shut her up. Was “How many Omegas have you marked” really a question a person asks out loud?

She knew exactly how much “capability” the original owner had from those memories. The girl had been a total paper tiger. Every time she took an Omega away in front of a crowd, she would just give them a sum of money and tell them to leave; she never had any actual intimate contact with them.

With the original owner’s pheromone allergy, even if she wanted to be a playboy, she couldn’t. Marking an Omega would be a death sentence.

As for herself, she’d only been here a few days. Who could she have possibly marked? She just wanted to stay alive, wuwu.

“Because you look quite useless. Like a little brat whose canines haven’t even finished growing.”

“…” Insult me… go ahead, keep at it… believe it or not, I’ll show you what I’m made of!

“Are you cursing me in your head right now?” Xue Wu saw her expression and knew there was nothing good behind it. She asked the question on purpose.

The closer she got to her, the more she could smell the pheromones radiating from the back of the little Alpha’s neck. She knew it wasn’t intentional; it was an unconscious leak. Usually, when two people have high compatibility, they release pheromones naturally to attract each other when they meet.

Luo Yan’s current state was a natural courtship behavior, which was honestly a bit surprising to Xue Wu.

However, she didn’t find the scent unpleasant. In fact, it was quite comfortable—much better than the pheromones of those Alphas from her past life who always tried to get close to violate her.

“I… I’m not. How would I dare curse Miss Xue?” Luo Yan laughed awkwardly, hiding her emotions, and tried to take a few steps back to distance herself.

Unexpectedly, as she moved, the big villain moved as well. And she didn’t just move anywhere—she placed her slender hand directly onto the gland at the back of Luo Yan’s neck, slowly rubbing it. Luo Yan shuddered instantly, her body losing half its strength as she went weak.

“You…” An Omega’s gland is off-limits, but by that same token, you don’t just touch an Alpha’s gland either! Luo Yan felt like she was on the verge of a breakdown.

Xue Wu knew her actions were improper. If flicking her lips earlier was just a tease, this was bordering on… well, harassment.

However, just as an Alpha instinctively releases pheromones to get a high-compatibility Omega’s attention, an Omega will also inexplicably perform strange actions to attract the other party.

These actions are often uncontrolled; one might only realize what they’ve done after the fact. Xue Wu thought she wouldn’t be controlled by pheromone instincts, but the reality was… she had slipped up.

Seeing Luo Yan’s eyes reddened at the corners as if she’d suffered a great grievance, Xue Wu withdrew her hand. She still felt like laughing. “Sorry, I didn’t do it on purpose.”

Then, she deliberately added: “But… you were the one who released pheromones to get my attention first.” The gland was surprisingly soft and sensitive, and it was so hot it felt like her hand was still being teased by the girl’s pheromones. It was quite a blatant display.

“…” Luo Yan knew the big villain wouldn’t apologize sincerely. Sure enough, she was being blamed. She was so wronged.

“Though, I was indeed in the wrong just now. You can ask for any compensation you like.” Truthfully, Xue Wu didn’t feel any remorse. If she were still that sentimental and compassionate person from her previous life, there would have been no point in being reborn.

Besides, Luo Yan wasn’t entirely blameless. Xue Wu didn’t want to debate absolute right and wrong; she just wanted to resolve the tension brought on by gender instincts.

Luo Yan, however, was nearly driven to laughter by the indifference in her tone. As a “part-time” Alpha, being touched on the gland was one thing—she wasn’t going to make a federal case out of a split second—but the big villain was pushing it. Offering compensation with such a casual tone? Did she really think Luo Yan had no temper?

“I don’t lack anything,” Luo Yan shot back, using her own words against her. Before Xue Wu could respond, she sneered, “But I can touch your gland once, and we’ll act like nothing happened.”

Now it was Xue Wu’s turn to look at her with interest. She hadn’t expected the girl to be bold enough to propose an “equivalent exchange” like a kitten showing its claws. She let out an unreadable chuckle. “Are you sure?”

“I’m sure.”

“Fine. Come then, touch it.”

Xue Wu didn’t hesitate. She swept her high ponytail over her shoulder and tilted her neck forward, completely exposing the gland that was currently covered by a pheromone suppressant patch. She looked as if she were waiting to be plucked.

Luo Yan looked at the gland inches away, her throat tightening involuntarily. She felt as if the surrounding air had become agitated, giving her a sudden impulse to rip off that patch and ravage the gland.

A dark, frantic thought surged: What if I just claimed this sweet gland for myself, making her release pheromones only for me?

Luo Yan moved. Her mind was a blank slate, devoid of everything except the sight before her. She seemed to have forgotten that the big villain had teased her earlier with a mark she didn’t actually want. Now, there was only the tempting gland—

She even wanted to release her pheromones to wrap the woman up tightly, so no one else could get near.

She is mine. She can only be mine.

By the time she stood right in front of her, only that thought remained. Her fingers trembled as she reached for the suppressant patch, having no intention of stopping.

Xue Wu watched her calmly. Seeing the “demonized” expression on her face, she sneered internally, feeling completely disappointed in the little Alpha. As expected, Alphas were all the same. No matter who they were, they could hold back once, but never twice.

She would treat this like a mosquito bite. It was nothing.

—But if the girl dared to do anything more out of line, she’d make sure she didn’t see the moon tonight.

However, the hand resting on the patch didn’t move. Instead, it began to shake even harder. Xue Wu looked at her suspiciously, and Luo Yan glared back without retreating. But the “fierce” look in her eyes softened first, and she said irritably, “Give me your hand.”

Without waiting for a reaction, she grabbed Xue Wu’s hand and bit down hard on the tip of her index finger.

“Hiss—” Xue Wu hadn’t expected a bite. It didn’t draw blood, but it certainly hurt. She looked at her with a complex expression. “Why?”

“Why what?” Luo Yan released her hand immediately after the bite. “Didn’t you say my canines weren’t grown yet? I couldn’t let you miss out on the experience, could I?”

“And another thing, Great Movie Queen, please show some concern for your own body. Your ‘special condition’ from this morning was only just barely stabilized, yet you’re letting people tear off your suppressant patch… are you trying to get me arrested?” Luo Yan’s heart was in a knot. There had been no patch this morning, but now there was; she was likely protecting herself from that Zhong Ting.

But how was her own behavior any different from Zhong Ting’s?

“Pfft—I never thought that far.” Xue Wu was amused again, and her disappointment faded slightly.

Just as she was about to say something else, a sweet voice rang out from nearby: “Luoluo, why are you here? I’ve been looking for you for ages!”

The person looking for her was none other than the Omega classmate, Gong Lin. Seeing her with Xue Wu, a flash of wariness appeared in Gong Lin’s eyes—especially since she noticed the atmosphere between them seemed “off.”

Xue Wu didn’t miss the look. She said nonchalantly to Luo Yan, “‘Luoluo’? That’s quite an intimate nickname.”

Luo Yan: “…”

She didn’t know if it was intimate or not, but hearing the big villain say it made her spine tingle. She really wanted to grab those fingertips and bite them again.

Gong Lin arrived and stood in front of Luo Yan, her face glowing with excitement. “Luoluo, I have great news! I got the cameo role the crew was casting for!”

She spoke as if she’d only just noticed Xue Wu was there, giving her a brief nod before turning back to ignore her.

Luo Yan felt a chill on the back of her neck. How long could Gong Lin survive if she kept ignoring the big villain like this?

But she said steadily, “Oh? That’s impressive. You should work hard and make the most of the opportunity.” That way I won’t be forced to perform! Gong Lin, you truly are my savior!

“But… I’ve never acted before. This is my first time. Do you think I can pull it off?” Gong Lin asked anxiously, seeking comfort.

“Don’t be nervous, you can do it. As far as I know, we already know the jewelry knowledge in the script. Most of your lines will be about that. For the rest, just do what the director says,” Luo Yan comforted her.

“But I’m still so nervous…” Gong Lin pouted slightly and requested cautiously, “Luoluo, can you give me a hug as a classmate to encourage me?”

As she spoke, her peripheral vision shifted toward Xue Wu, her lips curling into a slight, provocative smirk.

Luo Yan: … Silence x3. Was this really the original owner’s friend? Why was she rushing to her death! Did she really think the big villain was easy to provoke?

“Luoluo, can’t you?” Gong Lin asked again when she didn’t answer.

“Yes, it’s just a hug. Luoluo, can’t you?”

Just as Luo Yan was mentally lighting a candle for Gong Lin, the big villain—who loved to stir the pot—spoke up lazily, acting like a spectator. Her feline eyes narrowed as she watched Luo Yan, her red lips curving, waiting to see how she would react.

Luo Yan: “…”
