Free Web NovelChapter 165: Rollercoaster ride
Taesan’s POV
The beautiful omega slides into the car next to me.
"We’re back" he says, hugging a bag of clothes to his chest like he’s trying to hide them, and I can’t take my eyes off him.
Captain’s wife.
"Are you okay?" I ask him, pulling him closer to my side.
I swear this is not me, but being near this man has become more important than breathing, I will end the world if he ever leaves me.
My sword will drag the blood of everyone involved if he ever leaves my side.
"I’m okay, I bought a lot of nice things" he says, cheeks burning even a deeper red as I keep staring at him.
In the front seat Minjae chortles and I look at him.
The sly bastard looks too smug for a pregnant man, he looks like a cat that got everything he wants, and I just know it can’t be good.
"What did you get, little deer?" I ask while maintaining eye contact with Minjae, and Seoha shakes his head, hugging the bag tighter.
"Show him when you get home, Seoha-ya, consider it my blessing" Minjae says and I turn my attention to my mate.
"What is it?" I ask softly and he leans into me, hiding his face in my neck.
"Nothing too special" he mutters and I snake my hand around his small waist, still fascinated by it.
The man is precious in every way.
I understand why alphas go to war for their mate, it’s something beyond words, and it’s something beyond breathing.
"What do you want to do after this?" I ask and he mumbles something into the crook of my neck. ƒrēewebnovel.com
"Mmmffp"
Something tells me that he’s saying a theme park, but one part of my brain rejects it. No. It can’t be a theme park.
"Hmm?" I ask him and he looks up.
"Theme Park" he says and my jaw drops.
No.
"Mom used to take me on dates there, we used to look at the rollercoasters and eat ice cream...she didn’t care about the stares we got for not being able to pay for them" he says, keeping his voice low.
My alpha growls at the imagery.
His mother holding his hand and taking through a crowd of richer families.
Today I will change that image and give him something to smile about even if I don’t stand next to him.
"Junho, we are going to the theme park" I tell my driver and he nods at me, preparing to change routes.
"A theme park? Wow! That sounds fun" Minjae gush and I roll my eyes; fuck, this is not something I do.
"Thank you" my Seoha whispers, rubbing his face into my neck, purring softly with contained happiness.
While Junho drives, I school myself, going through the excuses I will give to avoid getting on a roller coaster.
I’m a mafia lord, mafia lords don’t sit in roller coasters...and I’m scared of heights, but I will never say it in front of Minjae.
"I’m so excited..." the omega says, bouncing in his seat and jolting me out of my thoughts.
"Sorry" he apologizes when he realizes that he startled me.
I grab him by the back of his neck, I don’t mean to scare him, but the way his scent flares and the way his eye flashes a submissive blue makes me want to do it every time.
’Control, Taesan’ logic whispers to me.
I should be courting him, not manhandling him. Even if he likes it, I should be gentle with him.
"I don’t want you ever apologizing to me, do you hear me, Seoha" I growl in his face and he gulps.
His Adam’s apple bobs and I want to kiss him there, want to bite it and leave a new mark on him.
I want to finish the job I started last night, holding him in my lap and taking him right here, kiss away his protest and knot him right here.
"Fuck, Seoha, don’t- don’t apologize to me" I say and this time his lips part as he gives me a response that I barely heard over my alpha’s greedy whimpers.
"Okay" he repeats in a broken tone, and I pull away from him, fixing my shirt and sitting back.
The smell of us in the car is strong, and when I lift my head, I find Minjae’s eyes on us.
Oh, that’s right, we are still in the car, and we are in the car with Minjae and Junho.
"Wow...you two are crazy" the man says from the front.
While Minjae gawks at us, Junho looks away deliberately, acting like his attention is fixed on the road.
When we arrive at the theme park, I am reminded of my fucking anxiety, and I force a poker face.
The omegas walk between Junhoand I.
Junhowalks in front of them and I walk behind them, shielding them with our bodies despite our bodyguards being around in hidden places.
I keep my head down as I follow them.
I have never seen Seoha this way. The small man is bouncing with every step he takes, and with his arm holding Minjae’s, he points at a roller-coaster.
"Minnie-ya, I want this one for us" he says and Minjae pouts.
"I can’t, I’m pregnant" his friend says, but just before I breathe a sigh of relief, Junho speaks for them.
"Taesan will take the roller coast with you, I’ll take Minjae to the carousel" he says and I fucking want to strangle him.
"Really?" Seoha turns to me before I can object, and fuck, those eyes.
Those mesmerizing brown eyes kill every thought of objecting.
How can I say no when he looks like this?
"Sure" I say with a dry tone, shooting Junho a ’captain will visit you tonight’ look.
Fuck.
Seoha’s POV
My giddiness comes to a stop when I notice the alpha’s face on the ride.
We are seated next to each other, the staff confirms that we are safe and ready, but my joy in lessening with each minute that passes.
Kang Taesan looks like this is the last place he wants to be, so instead of laughing with excitement in the way I feel like doing, I sit still.
"What’s the matter?" he asks when he notices the change in mood, and I lower my head as I play with the end of my cloth.
The white fabric suddenly looks more interesting to me.
"Omega" he says to call my attention.
"I’m just..." I start but my words fail to come through, so I clear my throat and try again.
"I’m just worried I am making you do what you don’t like" I manage to say and the alpha hold my chin, tipping my face upwards toward himself.
"Yes, I’m doing what I don’t like" he says bluntly and I drop my gaze from his face to my lap.
I feel horrible.
I thought today was a good day, I am wearing the clothes he made for me, and I look beautiful in them.
His worker called me Captain’s wife, and I can’t get the title out of my head after I saw him smile.
He held me in the car like he cherishes me, now we’re here...
"Treasure, look at me" he says and I look up at him, eyes brimming with tears and bottom lip trembling.
"Don’t cry" he says in a gruff tone and lets out a breath.
"Yes...sorry" I say and he huffs before putting his hands down.
"I like today, I like this" he says and I nod like I believe him when I don’t.
"You don’t believe me" he whispers and I blurt out my thought without thinking it through.
"You look like you don’t want to be here"
"I don’t want to be here" he says and I frown. I don’t understand him, he says he’s doing what he doesn’t like but also saying that he likes this.
"I’m confused" I say and as the ride jerks, signaling that it is about to start moving, I notice the color leaving his face.
"Fuck" the alpha curses under his breath, holding on to the grab handles and gulping nervously.
"Boss..." I call softly, finally seeing what is wrong.
"Hmmm?" he asks without looking at me and I hold back my laughter as I take his hand in mine.
"You’re okay?" I ask.
"Why not? I’m the- fuck" his words are cut off when the ride jerks again.
"Taesan, what’s wrong? Should I get help?" I ask him, I can tell he doesn’t like the ride but I want to hear him say it.
"No, no help" he murmurs, turning his head to the side and I smile at his expression.
"Are you scared?" I ask and instead of become the cold captain to me, he gives me a small nod.
"Hold my hand" he says and I do, I hold on to my alpha’s hand and start to laugh as the ride officially starts.
