Bab 81: Are you going to kiss me?

Fuck. 

He regretted it. 

Why did he have to let his mouth run head first without thinking it through? 

Jian Yu felt his heart constricted, like it was tied in thin silk thread and dangled in midair after asking so many questions. His blood thrumped in his veins and his heart's nerves were tightly clamped, unable to beat. 

He was terrified of the answers he might hear, but there was no way he could back out. There was no way he could not ask. 

Unknown to Jian Yu, there was another reason why he was feeling this way. 

The air he was inhaling was nauseous and poisonous as the pheromones exuded by Zeke were also playing a role in trying to surpass the Beta. The thickness and heaviness of the Alpha's scent was coiling and choking the Beta without him realizing as Jian Yu was too caught up with the moment to notice that he had to get away from the Alpha.
