Giving You Dawn and Dusk - Chapter 1
A fire seemed to be burning in her heart.
The heat ignited from her fingertips, burning straight to the deepest part of her soul.
Liang Shi’s chest felt like it was about to explode, and the fragrance only grew stronger.
With every breath, the scent rushed into her nose, making her want to just collapse into a drunken stupor right there.
Liang Shi had no choice but to hold her breath, yet the area behind her ears kept getting hotter. The heat diffused into the confined space, and she thought she heard soft, delicate moans near her ear.
They were filled with both temptation and pain.
Yet, they were incredibly alluring.
Unfamiliar fragments of memory constantly flooded her mind—all scenes of sensual indulgence, completely different from her past life. But these fragmented pieces of information couldn’t be strung together into a complete narrative.
Compounding this, her body was unbearably hot at the moment. Every inch of her skin felt like it was being scorched by fire, desperate to touch something.
She desperately wanted to drink that glass of sweet, cold liqueur in one gulp to relieve the pain in her body.
It hurts so much…
Liang Shi finally managed to pry open her eyelids. What greeted her was a luxuriously decorated room: soft white carpet covered the floor, and a gilded chandelier hung above. She was currently lying on the carpet, her body wrapped in the soft rug.
She struggled to organize the fragmented memories in her mind.
She seemed to have… transmigrated into a book.
She had become the namesake cannon fodder scum Alpha in a novel called Sweet Love. The original host, in order to possess the peerless beauty Omega, Xu Qingzhu, took advantage of the Xu family’s corporate crisis, married Xu Qingzhu, and brought her home. However, Xu Qingzhu was introverted and had severe Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) from a childhood kidnapping, so she had always refused to let the original host touch her.
The original Scum Alpha (A) initially tried to coax and deceive her with patience, but seeing no results, she quickly revealed her true colors.
Later, she simply took advantage of Xu Qingzhu’s heat, hid all the suppressants in the house, and attempted to use her powerful Alpha rut pheromones to suppress and merge with her, trying to forcibly mark her.
In this world, both Omega heats and Alpha ruts occur once every three months. If an Alpha manages to mark an Omega who is in heat while they are in rut, it becomes a permanent bond—a lifelong mark.
If they want to end this marked relationship, they must excise the Omega’s scent gland.
Excising the Omega’s scent gland means their physical constitution will deteriorate and their lifespan will be shortened.
And an Omega in heat who doesn’t take suppressants or bond with an Alpha will eventually die from the prolonged fever.
Therefore, the Scum A, Liang Shi, made thorough preparations for this action, but she hadn’t expected the introverted Xu Qingzhu to be a fiercely spirited person at heart. Xu Qingzhu took out a pair of scissors from under the pillow to resist her, even stabbing her hand.
The Scum A, Liang Shi, was infuriated and humiliated, and that night, she slapped Xu Qingzhu twice.
Later, on a dark and stormy night, fueled by alcohol, she excised Xu Qingzhu’s scent gland, rendering her infertile for life, causing her to lose her sense of taste forever, and deteriorating her physical health.
And Liang Shi, having just transmigrated, was a mess in her head, yet her body was uncontrollably drawn to the sweet scent in the room.
Her body seemed to be moving on its own, completely guided by the sweet Omega pheromone. She struggled to stand up and immediately saw the Omega lying on the bed.
That enticing scent was emanating from her.
She wanted to get closer to her earlobe, to smell her pheromones up close.
She wanted to hug her, to kiss her, to do every crazy thing imaginable.
She even wanted to embrace her and gently lick her scent gland.
It must be a very sweet taste.
Just the thought of it sent pleasure coursing through Liang Shi’s body.
The Omega lying on the bed had a flushed face, eyes as soft and alluring as silk, and skin as white as snow, but it was now stained with a rosy hue, like a layer of beautiful rouge. She was wearing a pure white silk slip nightgown, and a silver necklace rested on her delicate collarbone.
Her smooth, pale legs were exposed, and her beautiful toes were painted with vibrant red nail polish, yet it wasn’t vulgar at all; instead, it complemented her inherently aloof temperament. Adding to this were her current hazy eyes.
She looked exactly like a white snowdrift covered with a red veil.
Hazy, bewitching, and seductive.
Even the way her fair foot gently rubbed against her calf felt like it was tracing a path across Liang Shi’s heart.
It felt less like a foot and more like a feather.
To achieve the goal of forcefully suppressing with her rut pheromones, the Scum A, Liang Shi, hadn’t used suppressants. She was now constantly being drawn in by this sweet scent, every cell in her body clamoring to embrace the Omega on the bed.
She had to mark this Omega and make her belong to her.
Liang Shi had no time to think and instinctively lunged onto the bed.
The large movement startled Xu Qingzhu, who was struggling to suppress the powerful attraction of the Alpha pheromone.
She opened her eyes—a pair of eyes like a fawn lost in the forest. Her dark pupils looked over innocently and fearfully, wet with terror and despair.
Liang Shi had not yet fully taken over the body, and the remnants of the Scum A’s consciousness kept thinking: “Mark her.”
“An Omega like this is born to be conquered.”
“She is only fit to bloom beneath an Alpha.”
“As long as I mark her, she will fall in love with me forever.”
“…”
The original Scum A’s thoughts kept bubbling up—all despicable and shameful ideas.
But these thoughts caused Liang Shi’s body to experience an instinctive arousal.
Liang Shi couldn’t help but despise this body.
Yet her hand had already touched the Omega’s skin.
The Omega, who had been pampered since childhood, was soft and delicate. Her skin was like expensive silk, smooth and textured to the touch. When she leaned in to smell her pheromone, it was the scent of strawberry liqueur.
This was a wine Liang Shi quite liked, and in the seductive atmosphere, this scent mobilized every cell in Liang Shi.
The bedroom light was off; only the moonlight filtered through the sheer curtains. The hazy moonlight spilled onto the Omega, coating her in a captivating glow.
“Liang Shi.” Xu Qingzhu clenched her fists. “Don’t touch me.”
“Without my mark, you will die,” this sentence suddenly surfaced in Liang Shi’s mind, and her body even wanted to say it out loud, but she bit her own tongue.
Thank goodness, she didn’t say it.
“I won’t touch you,” Liang Shi said, stepping back and leaning against the closet. But her body was constantly being drawn in by the Omega pheromone. She tightly gripped her palms, her nails nearly piercing her skin. The pain brought back a sliver of her rationality.
She knew she couldn’t stay in this room any longer.
It was incredibly difficult for an Alpha in rut and an Omega in heat to be in the same room and resist their biological instincts, especially since she couldn’t fully control this body yet.
So, she quickly declared, “I’m going to call an ambulance for you.”
Then, she stumbled out of the room.
The moment she left the room, the full context of the original plotline poured into her mind.
After the Scum A, Liang Shi, excised Xu Qingzhu’s scent gland, Xu Qingzhu escaped her control with the help of an admirer, was hospitalized for treatment, and upon discharge, struggled to prop up her family business, bringing it back from the brink of ruin and becoming a universally respected figure in Haizhou City.
As for the Scum A, her scent gland was cut out by Xu Qingzhu’s admirer and fed to a dog. She was also discovered to not be the real eldest daughter of the Liang family. Stripped of her identity, she became a stray dog, tortured to the point where she wished for death.
Liang Shi: “…”
Isn’t living a good life better?
Liang Shi swallowed hard. Before she could fully process these fragmented details, the screen of the phone lying on the floor lit up.
It was the original host’s phone.
She picked it up and used face recognition to unlock it. Messages kept popping up.
How did it go? Did you succeed?
What’s the taste of Haizhou’s number one Omega like? Is she whorish enough?
If you get bored of her, remember to call us to join in. /smirk
Now that you mention it, I want to try her tomorrow.
How about we all go together tomorrow? @Liang Shi
They had sent many, very messy messages in the group chat, most of which revolved around Liang Shi and Xu Qingzhu.
Liang Shi frowned as she read the messages, thinking about what kind of trash the original host was.
She was joking about her own wife with other people.
Impatiently, she replied: [Get lost.]
The group chat immediately exploded.
But Liang Shi didn’t look at their messages again.
She exited the chat and dialed 120 (the emergency number), accurately stating the location and the type of suppressants needed.
Then, she leaned against the door, panting heavily. The back of her dress was already soaked, sticking clammily to her body. The sweet Omega pheromone kept wafting over, and her rationality was once again on the verge of collapse.
She raised her hand and fiercely bit the back of her hand, trying to use the pain to distract herself.
This brought back a trace of sanity.
She gently pushed the door open, wanting only to check on Xu Qingzhu’s condition, but as soon as she opened it, the Omega on the bed opened her eyes and warned her in a hoarse voice, “Don’t come closer.”
Her expression was pained, showing she was desperately trying to suppress the pheromonal attraction.
Liang Shi didn’t understand.
Why would that Scum A hurt such a lovely Omega?
But thinking of Xu Qingzhu’s future appearance and the original host’s ultimate fate, Liang Shi’s heart thumped loudly. She suppressed the immense pain in her body and forced herself to remain calm, saying, “The ambulance will be here soon. And by the way, I’ll tell you a secret.”
Xu Qingzhu tilted her head up, her hazy eyes filled with confusion.
The silk slip nightgown slid down, revealing a stunning cleavage.
Liang Shi looked away awkwardly and said, “Actually, I’m incapable of pheromone marking.”
Xu Qingzhu: “?”
“So don’t worry,” Liang Shi said. “I can’t do it.”
