Into The Rose Garden

Vol. 2 Chapter 3.4 - Can't escape

Klopp grumbled inwardly, but strangely, he couldn’t approach Aelock. The Count, who was smiling so brightly, felt unfamiliar. And, at the same, Klopp felt that he shouldn’t get close to him. As someone who only knew that symphony meant simultaneous playing of instruments, he would undoubtedly be on their way. He hesitated for a moment and decided to wait outside the music hall. However, the clarinet player who had noticed him earlier unnecessarily butted in.

“Who are you?”

The omega’s voice was loud enough for Aelock, who had been chatting over there, to turn around. Since the attention of the music hall suddenly shifted in this direction, Klopp had no choice but to turn around and give his greeting with his eyes.

The laughter disappeared from the Count’s face, which had just been laughing moments ago, and a polite yet fake smile appeared. It didn’t feel good to be treated like an unwelcome guest when he didn’t particularly want to disturb them. On top of that, he was already irritated by the expense issue, so his expression became even more rigid. The middle-aged alpha who was also looking at this side took a step back, startled.

With a faint smile, Aelock excused himself to the other person and walked over this way. Perhaps he was a little annoyed by the interruption, as his smile seemed deeper than usual.

The gazes of the people inside the quiet music hall moved lightly, like clouds, following the blond alpha. When Klopp noticed that many people were looking in this direction, his skin felt tingling for no reason. However, Aelock, who stood at the center of the hall, seemed completely unfazed.

Since they couldn’t argue here, Klopp left the music hall without saying a word, and Aelock followed behind him. As soon as they reached a small terrace not far from the music hall, the Count’s stern voice came from behind.

“Did you see what I sent you?”

“I am here because I saw that.”

A snarky response came out of his mouth, a little too much even to himself. When Klopp turned around, the blue eyes, which had gotten deeper, stared at him. It was a gaze that always felt piercing, but today it was particularly more intense. His summer-sky eyes shimmered as if they were soaked in water. With the breeze, Klopp could smell a stronger perfume than usual.

His already unpleasant mood plummeted in an instant. It wouldn’t be strange for Aelock to have a lover, but that fact kept bothering Klopp. The image of the omega woman in the green dress from the previous time came to his mind, and his grip tightened for no reason. Trying to hide it, he clenched his hand behind his back and glared down at Aelock.

“Do you remember what it says at the end of the contract?”

“Any breach of the above will result in immediate termination of the contract.”

It wasn’t a genuine question about whether he remembered or not; he was just testing his luck. but the immediate answer left him speechless for a moment, but he quickly recovered.

“I’m surprised you remember that.”

“Most people would memorize such a short document like that after reading it once. I hope you don’t treat people as fools just because you were a top graduate at the capital university.”

A short document, he said. It was an absurd statement to claim that he had memorized the seven densely packed pages of the contract, printed in standard font on standard paper, after reading it just once.

“What’s the first sentence of page two?”

“Investment Agent’s Duties. Clause one, the contractor’s. Wait. Are you testing me right now?”

“Exactly.”

Watching the Count make a rare show of displeasure, Klopp nodded his head like a private tutor inspecting homework. In honesty, he couldn’t precisely remember what the first sentence of the second page was. However, the other party wouldn’t know that fact. Klopp was actually quite surprised to see Aelock so angry at him for doubting himself.

He can’t be a genius. He seemed like he was just watching the texts in the book before. There was no way he could read that fast…

Even when he was in doubt, Klopp belatedly realized that Aelock had indeed read the book back then. He hadn’t been pretending to be knowledgeable because he was self-conscious of Klopp, but he read fast because he was really smart. Just what on earth is this man?

By now, since he had already invited the maestro and the musicians, canceling the soirée now wouldn’t prevent financial losses. He was usually a laid-back guy, but when situations like this arose, he was a quick thinker.

“You do realize you exceeded the amount that I laid out, right?”

“I contacted you. I politely sent a formal letter.”

“I told you to discuss with me, not notify me!”

The frustration that had been bubbling up earlier had finally boiled over. It was irritating to act this way all week, and on top of that, he didn’t like how Aelock would throw bombs like this and not even care when he came all the way here. Klopp really hated how he was delightfully interacting with another alpha male. And if he was so intelligent, why hadn’t he realized that the letter would make him jump up and down with rage. Growling, he approached closer, and Aelock took two steps back in panic. Aelock ended up trapped between the closed glass door of the terrace and Klopp. As Klopp got closer, he could smell something slightly sweet within the refreshing perfume scent.

“Alright, I understand, so back off a bit.”

Aelock put on his trademark thin smile and tried to move to the side, and seeing that, without realizing it, Klopp grabbed his arm. His blue eyes widened unlike ever before. Confusion, embarrassment, and fear seeped into them. The corners of Aelock’s lips, forced into a smile, trembled slightly. At that moment, Klopp felt a sting in his chest. He was well aware that he could be quite intimidating when he was angry. However, he hadn’t thought that this domineering count would be afraid of him. The arm held in his hand was trembling ever so slightly.

“Let go.”

“Oh, I’m sorry.”

Hearing the trembling voice, Klopp snapped out of his daze and released his grip, stepping back. “I’ll make sure to discuss in advance next time,” Aelock said softly as he enveloped the arm that was held by Klopp, then took a few steps to the side. Klopp could see Aelock’s intention to avoid him. Somehow, it made his heart sink even more. Klopp didn’t like the way Aelock was acting like he’d been assaulted when all he’d done was grab his arm. However, the other party seemed too serious to bring it up here and retort back.

“I’m sorry, but I’m going to have to ask you to leave for today. I’m not feeling well.”

“I understand.”

Aelock didn’t seem to have any signs of illness, but he looked a little pale and was avoiding him, so Klopp reluctantly agreed. As he tried to open the glass door to the terrace and go inside, Aelock softly muttered, as if wanting him to hear it, “You’re an ignorant fool with no musical taste. You just use violence.”

Klop felt unjust after hearing such words and was about to say something back, but Aelock slipped through the door before he could stop him. He walked hastily, resembling a herbivorous animal desperately fleeing from a predator. Seeing that, Klopp couldn’t grab him.

After returning from the Count’s estate, Klopp felt like crap throughout the afternoon. He kept getting irritated and felt something weighing heavily on him, making it hard to concentrate. He made several unusual grammatical errors and absentmindedly tapped the nin of the pen on the paper until the ink spread, ruining several important documents. Only then did Klopp inform his secretary that he would be leaving the office early.

Although it was quite far to walk to his house in the suburbs, he decided to take a stroll for a change of pace. When taking the carriage, he would follow the main road, passing through common residential and commercial areas along the river. However, on foot, he couldn’t afford to take such a detour. He had to go through a dimly lit slum area through an alley between the shops. Anyone who learned that he frequented that path advised against it, furrowing their brows and advising him to take a carriage. But he didn’t mind it. contemporary romance

Having grown up in the quiet and secluded forested area of the rugged northern mountains, he often took long walks on any path when city life sometimes became too suffocating. The narrow back alley he entered now was just the right distance for walking. The problem was that occasionally some people would unnecessarily instigate fights, but on a day like today, he actually wished someone would start a dispute.

Holding the sturdy cane that he often used when walking home, he soon vanished into the darkness of the descending alley.

By the time he reached his home, he was physically fatigued, but at least some of his mental exhaustion had been alleviated. The moment he opened the door, he was greeted by his recently hired maid, Martha, who looked a little surprised.

“You’re back early.”

She received the coat, hat, and cane that Klopp handed over.

“Did you encounter another rabid dog? Why is there blood on the cane?”

“Yeah, you’re right.”

“We should report it to the town hall.”

“I’ve already reported it. I’ll go to bed early today, so Martha, you can get some rest. I don’t need dinner either.”

Klopp said that to the worrying middle-aged Omega woman and went up to the second floor. At the top of the stairs, he pulled off his tie and removed his vest. Once in his room, he undid a few buttons on the neck of his shirt, kicked off his shoes, and then collapsed onto his bed.

He had a rough idea of why he wasn’t feeling well. Firstly, he was physically dissatisfied, and secondly, he felt guilty for not being able to give his lover his mental loyalty. He couldn’t fathom why on earth that Alpha guy was causing him so much distress. When they hadn’t been meeting, and he had forgotten about him, everything was peaceful. But as soon as he intervened again, everything went into chaos.

It’s all unfulfilled desires. That perfume, it must be because the scent was similar to what playboys wear. His looks were similar to Rayfiel, yet he looked more mature than him, so I must be confusing them. It’s all because their marriage is a bit late. Yeah. So let’s stop overthinking it and just propose to Rayfiel.

Klopp suddenly got up from the bed and rummaged through the jacket pocket that he threw to the other side, taking out a ring box. Lying back on the bed, he looked at the platinum and sapphire ring, eventually falling asleep without even undressing properly.

***

In his dream, he held a very fragile Omega with blonde hair and blue eyes. He had a slightly swollen belly, as if pregnant. Every time the angry Alpha’s penis thrust against his inner walls, the Omega cried out in a thin, high-pitched voice, further encouraging the act. When he reached climax, thrusting fiercely from behind, he poured his seed into the already impregnated body, and that omega collapsed, gasping for breath. For some reason, his own very angry self grabbed those skinny arms roughly, as if they would break with the slightest effort, and forced him to lie down properly. He probably thought the child was being crushed.

As if watching that scene in third person, Klopp was curious about Omega’s face, so he shifted his gaze in that direction. The Omega, with his body turned over, was severely bruised, making it difficult to recognize his face. The bruises covering his body, visible through the open clothes, were evidence of violence, not evidence of a passionate love.

Between the tousled blonde hair, a pair of striking blue eyes looked at his direction.
