Chapter:-2
It happens on an unassuming Thursday.
Adom wakes up in the morning and he has a headache. He can tell it’s going to be a long day so he showers quickly and takes an aspirin before rushing to work. He had woken up late so he misses his usual train. His stomach grumbles all the way because he had missed breakfast and his hair is still a little damp as he rests it against the train window.
His boss looks cross as soon as he steps off the elevator and into his office floor. Everyone else is already doing work, their eyes daring not to glance at Adom. His boss flicks his head in the direction of his private office and Adom follows with his head bowed. He’s really bad at confrontations, so he usually takes these talking-tos with his eyes cast down and hands gathered together. He follows his boss inside the office and carefully closes the door behind himself. He takes a deep breath before turning back around.
“You’re late,” His boss supplies, voice stern as he flips through documents on his desk. He’s sitting down in leisure and Adom is almost certain he’s not actually reading a single thing he’s pretending to look at.
“Yes, I’m sorry. It won’t happen again,” Adom answers, his voice meek.
“This is already the third time this quarter, I’m beginning to wonder if putting you in charge of a project was too much, too soon...” His boss has stopped shuffling papers now. He looks up and his gaze makes Adom want to sigh. Another thing he hates to see, disappointment.
“I understand why you would think so, however my team has been making great progress with the proposal. I believe our outcome can convince you otherwise. Please just let me stay on until we finish, if you are unsatisfied with the results, I will take full responsibility.” Adom makes sure his words are clear and decisive even though he can’t manage to look up. Honestly, he’s terrified. He can’t help but be scared of failure, however he’s nothing if not a hard worker. He’ll do his best and then worry about the rest afterwards.

Adom boss seems to have sensed his determination because he finally cracks a small smile, “Fine, but this is your last warning. Please arrive to work on time, otherwise it will set a bad precedent for your juniors,” he gestures to the door behind Adom, his cue to leave.“Of course, thank you,” Adom replies before he speeds out of the office. He doesn’t stop until he’s inside his own small office and has his back against his closed door. He bangs his head back, and finally lets out that sigh he’s been holding in all morning. Today really isn’t his day. Someone knocks on his door, startling him out of his misery. He steps back to open the door, seeing one of his juniors looking at him while holding a cup of coffee. “Bad morning?” They say, extending the mug towards Adom to take. Adom opens his mouth, not really knowing what to say before he decides to just accept the smal

Adom stays later than usual trying to finish up as much as possible. There’s no one left by the time he packs it in for the night. The office feels eerie with most of its lights off, no sounds of typing or talking echoing throughout the space. If Adom were a lesser man he would have run towards the elevator. Instead he just walks as fast as possible. He huffs in relief once inside then catches sight of himself in the reflective mirrors and laughs at his foolish behavior.He slips out his phone and starts playing a game to pass the time. His floor is pretty high up since the broadcasting division takes up most of the upper levels. He doesn’t stop playing as he gets to the ground floor, having memorized his office building by heart.It’s not as cold out tonight, spring winds rustling the trees above him as he walks to the train station. He tries to keep himself occupied on his game but his thou

It’s only a Thursday but the bar is more packed than Adom had anticipated. He looks around and feels out of place in his grey suit. Everyone else is dressed pretty casually, he checks the watch on his wrist and sees that it’s close to midnight. The music is pretty loud but the chatter of the people inside the bar is even louder. He almost drags himself back out before he spots the bartender handing out drinks at the counter and changes his mind. He really needs that drink. Adom steps into the throng of people bustling about, trying to squeeze himself into cracks he finds between bodies so he doesn’t have to really touch anyone. The only good thing so far happens to be the small air diffusers all around the small bar that are doing a great job of keeping everyone’s scents at bay. Adom has an especially sensitive nose so he appreciates it. He finds a vacant stool by the counter and takes it. He raises

Adom can’t do anything but look down at where beer has spilled all over his white dress shirt. He almost wants to say something to the guy, can feel his temper rise but in the next second he just huffs out a laugh. He’s so upset that it’s all he can do. Today just isn’t his day. “Woah buddy, I think you’ve had enough for now,” The guy who was being hugged earlier says, stepping in between Adom and his drunk friend. He slants his back towards Adom so he can’t see his face but notices how he has pushed his entire group of friends a little further away so they aren’t so close to Adom now. He’s not sure if it was deliberate but as long as no one is bumping into him anymore he’ll take it. Adom grabs a few square napkins from the countertop and dabs them on his chest so he won’t feel sticky at least. He tips his beer back and finishes it in one big gulp. He’s really star

Adom doesn’t know what he expects, maybe he wanted to feel some kind of accomplishment, as if he had won over this random stranger. But what he gets in return is the other guy laughing happily in his face. Adom leans back a little, startled. The guy rubs a hand down his face, eyes finding Adom before he follows him and leans in. “Then...what should I do to be forgiven?” Adom feels the man place one hand around Adom, holding onto the beer bottle. The surprise wears off fast, Adom staring into the man’s eyes. His hand feels warm on top of his own. His eyes are brown, staring at Adom before they flit down to Adom pink lips. It’s only a second, then they’re back to watching Adom eyes, searching and seeking. Adom doesn’t know how he expected this day to end but he had never imagined this. He’s tired, and drunk. His shirt is still wet from the spilled beer, sticking to his chest. He can’t remember the

Adom thinks he hears the man say a hasty goodbye to his friends but he isn’t too sure. All he knows is that the hand he’s holding is warm, that it feels nice and that he hasn’t felt so determined about something like this in a long time. Outside of the bar Adom drags them straight to the dark alley right beside and then stops. He takes a deep breath then turns around to look at the man behind him. “I’m Alexander by the way,” The guy says, hands tucked into his jean pockets and smile soft on his lips. “Yeah,” Adom says under his breath, raising his hand and pulling the guy in by the front of his shirt. Adom feels the wall meet his back and the surprised sound against his face before they’re kissing. Adom closes his eyes at last, fingers loosening their grip on Alexander shirt so he can wrap his arms around Alexander neck instead. Alexander seems to catch on quick, wrapping his own arms around Adom waist and pul

There’s a very sudden gush of wind and it brings with it the smell of damp earth, heavy with fallen rain. Adom brows ripple. It hasn’t rained for some time. Maybe a week or so. He pulls away, eyes clouded and filled with desire. “Is that you?” Adom asks, nose touching Alexander.“Is what me?” Alexander tilts his head, amused.Suddenly, as if announcing its presence, the smell increases tenfold. It feels like it’s permeating everything around them. Adom has to block his nose just so his hackles don’t start to rise. “You’re an alpha?” Adom pushes Alexander back a step, just so he can maybe get a breath of regular air in. It doesn’t work.“Uh, yeah. You didn’t notice earlier?” Alexander says, stepping back further after noticing Adom discomfort.

They stumble into Alexander condo while kissing. The whole place is cast in shadow. Adom almost trips over a pair of shoes left out on the floor and Alexander has to catch him by the waist. They both laugh in each other’s mouths, still kissing, unwilling to let go. Adom reaches a hand out to feel for a wall, he manages to find it right before Alexander is pushing him onto it. His back hits the plaster with a soft thud, Alexander lips a soft impact in comparison on his neck. Adom toes off his shoes, a rush to take off his jacket while keeping up with Alexander pace.Alexander smiles against his neck, thumb running across Adom bottom lip. He laughs when Adom gets his sleeve stuck on his watch. It would feel out of place if Adom wasn’t also laughing at his own clumsiness. Alexander steps back and helps him take his suit jacket off, eyes never leaving Adom. He almost looks fond. It feels foreign to Adom to be looked at lik
