Nexus' body was aching when he woke up, as if he was beaten up. He could feel pain in different parts of his body. Even his head, down to his nape and his back is aching.

His body is also itchy and he felt sticky all over as if his sweat was dried in his body. He can even feel the soreness on his hips, waist and on his legs.

He looked around him and he sighed in relief when he found out that he was still in his exclusive room and he can feel the soft bed he was lying on. But the relief he's feeling quickly dissapeared when he turned to the other side of the bed and saw Maximino who's naked and sleeping soundly while facing him.

Shock and surprise is an understatement of what he's feeling as he stare at Maximino.

And as he stare at Maximino, just like a movie, the memories of what happened between him and Maximino came back to him.

He remembered how he answered his kisses. He remembered how hungry he is for Maximino. He remembered how he moaned and how he was begging for Maximino to fuck him over and over again. And most of all, he remembered how he begged Maximino to bite him and mark him!

He quickly got up and sat down, trying to bear the pain his body is body. His hand quickly touched his own nape. And his eyes widened while his mouth was widely opened when he felt it.

The bite mark.

"No, no, no. This can't be happening." He said with a shaky voice. Then he turned his gaze back to Maximino who still had his eyes closed. "No. It can't be. It can't be. I can't be his mate. He can't be my mate. We can't be paired." He said while shaking his head.

He could not accept what had happened. He refused to accept it.

His feelings was mixed up. He is confused, he regrets and he is angry with himself. He could have tried even harder. He could have tried even harder to resist the heat he was feeling. He could have tried even harder to stop himself from being drowned in pleasure.

"You're up already?" That question of Maximino made him stop from thinking.

He quickly turned his gaze to Maximino and he saw him, staring at him with his sleepy eyes.

"I thought you were going to sleep for a long time considering that we did it all night but it seems like you're recovering faster than I thought." Maximino said as he groggily sat and combed his disheveled hair with his own fingers. "Last night was crazy. I thought my hips are going to break while I kept on thrusting inside you." He grinned then looked back at him, "You were so wild last night, Nexus. So fucking wild."

Nexus turned speechless. His mouth remained widely opened as he stare at Maximino who still has a huge grin on his lips.

"Cat caught your tongue, eh?" Maximino said then averted his eyes and shook his head. "I know what you're thinking right now, Nexus. You're probably thinking that this isn't real, or that I am an asshole who took advantage of you during your heat, or that it's unacceptable for us to be pairs. But no matter what you're thinking, no matter how much you try to refuse nor deny it," Maximino stare at him again and with a serious look on his face, he continued, "nothing and no one could change the fact that we are pairs now. That you, belong to me now."

Nexus' ears twitched at the last thing Maximino said. His fists clenched as well.

"Anyway, let's go take a bath." Still naked, Maximino left the bed and stood up then turned to the other side of the bed and faced him. "I know you can't do it yourself so I'll help you out. Come, I'll ---"

"I don't belong to anyone." He said, not even letting Maximino to finish what he was going to say. Then he looked at Maximino and with gritted teeth, he said, "I don't belong to you and I will never be."

He belongs to him now? Is he kidding him? Does he really think that he would agree to that? He doesn't even want to be an omega in the first place and now he's paired to an alpha, which he never wanted to happen. And of all the alpha, he mated and paired to Maximino, to Maximino whom he hates so much.

He removed the blanket that covered his naked body and even if it's kinda difficult for him, he got out of bed and stood up. He passed by Maximino who's gaze are following him as he began to pick up his clothes that are scattered on the floor.

"We had sex and there's nothing special about it. That's what I've been doing these past few years so what we did last night isn't new to me." When he had finished picking up his clothes, he faced Maximino again who has an expression was on his face that he couldn't read. "You marked me and that's just it. It's not like you can mark an omega only once. So let's just forget about these and pretend like this never happe ---"

"And what makes you think that I'll agree to that?" Maximino said, quickly cutting him off.

"And why wouldn't you? Isn't it more convenient for you? You are a celebrity now. What do you think your fans will think and say once they found out that you paired with a lowly and a prostitute omega like me?"

"Who gives a fuck about them?" Maximino answered him quickly that made him frown.

Maximino approached him. And in an instant, one of his arms was quickly wrapped around his waist as he pulled him close. He brought his face close to his until the tip of their noses almost touched.

They stared at each other's eyes. And as he stared into Maximino's eyes, he couldn't help but gulp.

The look on Maximino's eyes are terrifying that it suddenly made him nervous.

"I don't give a fuck on what they will say. I didn't go all these troubles just to let you go this easily. So whether you like it or not, you belong to me now. You are now my mate. We are paired now. And if I have to use force just to make you submit to me, then I'd gladly do it. And trust me Nexus, you wouldn't like me using force on you." Maximino said.

And before he could even speak, Maximino already claimed his lips that surprised the hell out of him.
