Captured By The Cold Detective (BL)-Chapter 94: Alpha, Wake Up

He Juan was having the best sleep of his life, hugging the soft and fragrant pillow in his arms when all of a sudden, a continuous ring of an alarm pierced through the fog of his mind and roused him from his deep slumber.

Still groggy, he tried to discern the unfamiliar sound and confirmed that it was not his own. As such, there was no need for him to wake up. With a groan, he hugged the pillow tighter to himself and buried his face into it again, inhaling its scent deeply. A burst of delight and comfort coursed through him. He did not remember if he had such a pillow but... it smelled so good... 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

Less than five seconds later, He Juan was already off to another dreamland.

Totally unaware that his body pillow was already wide awake. To be exact, Mu Yuze had not gotten a wink of sleep as he was too engrossed in watching He Juan’s sleeping face like he was bewitched by a powerful spell. Then in a blink of an eye, his alarm — where had he put his phone again? — was activated. He instinctively knew that it was his usual waking up time, five am.

Mu Yuze blinked his dry eyes in surprise. Had he really spent so long watching Juan-gege sleep? Why did time fly by so fast?

His entire body felt soft and pliant within the confines of He Juan’s powerful arms. As much as Mu Yuze wanted to stay, the alarm was slowly getting to his nerves. Alas, when he tried to move, He Juan abruptly tightened his arms around his waist as though unwilling to let go.

Mu Yuze’s heart skipped a beat. "Juan-gege...?" He called out tentatively. But when he looked closer, he saw that He Juan was still deeply asleep with his head nestled blissfully on Mu Yuze’s chest. He was totally unperturbed by the noise in the air.

For the nth time throughout the night, Mu Yuze’s heart seized sharply when he saw how comfortable He Juan was hugging him, how intimate and dependant his posture was. Entirely out of selfish desire, he gingerly leaned in and pecked the tip of the Alpha’s perfect nose, whispering close to his ear, "Juan-gege... it’s my alarm. I have to get up now."

There was no response from He Juan other than nuzzling his head closer as if he wanted to bury his face deeper into the pillow.

Usually, he was not such a heavy sleeper. But these past few days had utterly drained him, both mentally and physically. Coupled with the fact that he had just had a pheromone outburst last night, followed by a sexy and thrilling make-up session with his beloved which resulted in severe lack of sleep, He Juan was akin to a dying battery which was barely charging. And of course, the only way for him to recharge was to sleep in and hug the pillow in his arms tighter.

Mu Yuze did not bat an eyelid at the strength He Juan exerted. If it was any other omega, maybe they would have cried out from pain. It really did look like He Juan was intending to break his waist from how tight he was holding him.

...But Mu Yuze liked it.

Tighter, he found himself thinking, hug me tight. Even more tighter than this. Even if I have to break my body for it, I am perfectly willing...

However, the alarm was getting more and more unbearable. It pierced through the stillness of the day just like a siren. And if he did not do anything about it soon, the neighbors would definitely come knocking on his door with a belly of complaints. Mu Yuze dug into his memory and barely remembered that he had put his phone in He Juan’s suit jacket.

He craned his neck and looked around before he recalled that the suit jacket was still inside the bathroom because He Juan had carried him there when he was still wearing it.

No wonder the sound seemed louder than usual, Mu Yuze’s brows creased in displeasure.

"Juan-gege." He called again. No response.

He tried to use brute force to break out of the confinement of He Juan’s arms only to agitate the Alpha with his restless movement. As a result, He Juan directly rolled over to press him down with his body, almost smothering the breath out of Mu Yuze’s lungs. Mu Yuze stared at the ceiling for one long moment, then glanced down at the Alpha whose head was comfortably pillowed on his chest.

He raked his fingers through the Alpha’s long and silken hair, then bent down to whisper, "Alpha, wake up."

He Juan’s eyes snapped open almost immediately.

His silver eyes were disoriented, filled with traces of drowsiness that softened their edges. He raised his head and murmured indistinctly, "...Precious?"

Mu Yuze’s earlobes burned red. His fingers twitched and after one second of deliberation, he finally swept them across He Juan’s thick lashes, almost reverently. "Mn."

A hot-blooded young male’s body was a dangerous thing. Clearly, it was only a few hours ago that they had done all those intimate things on the couch outside. Yet as soon as he saw He Juan’s vulnerable state and heard this endearment which was whispered in such a husky and sexy voice, Mu Yuze’s body instantly reacted to produce serotonin. His body still recalled the toe-curling ecstasy that came from the Alpha’s touches, and it simply could not bear such a great stimulation early in the morning.

He had not worn his gland patch to sleep, and for some inexplicable reason, he was also unwilling to hide what he was feeling from Juan-gege, and thus, the scent of the omega’s arousal started to spread in the air, warm and sticky, like whips of electric wire that struck a chord in He Juan’s soul.

"Oh..." He took a deep breath of the intoxicating scent before he could help it. Any trace of sleepiness evaporated without a trace as he finally registered the position they were in.

Wait a moment... how did they get to such a situation?!

He Juan clearly recalled that he was waiting for Mu Yuze to finish showering, and then... oh God, he must have fallen asleep! He Juan stared at Mu Yuze, unblinking. Mu Yuze, who was currently spread out underneath him in a very compromising position. Mu Yuze, who was surrounded by soft pillows and blankets like an angel who stumbled upon Earth. Mu Yuze, who smelled so delectable and...

He Juan’s throat bobbed heavily as he swallowed. Against every single fiber in his body screaming for him to dig in, He Juan rolled out of the way and released the omega from the tight cocoon of his embrace. "Sorry, Xiao Ze! I was half-asleep just now. I didn’t hurt you, did I...?"

Instead of answering, Mu Yuze got to his feet and strode toward the bathroom. Two seconds later, the noisy ringtone finally ceased and silence returned to the air. Only then did He Juan realize that Mu Yuze must be turning off his alarm. As for He Juan... he was currently contemplating life.

Had he somehow fallen asleep, hugging Mu Yuze, inside Mu Yuze’s nest itself??

Wait, no, that’s not right. He recalled seeing the nest stacked neatly on the bed last night. No matter how lousy He Juan’s memory was, his brain would not have failed him when it came to things about Mu Yuze. So how did the nest move to the floor in the span of one night?

An absurd guess surfaced in He Juan’s mind. Mu Yuze, he... had he moved the nest after He Juan fell asleep last night?! Goodness... how could he be so adorable?!

He Juan buried his face in his palms, trying to prevent himself from doing something stupid like... leaving his scent on Mu Yuze’s nest or chasing Mu Yuze into the bathroom. Fortunately, before the imagination could fully materialize in He Juan’s mind, Mu Yuze came out of the bathroom with the suit jacket in one arm whereas his other hand was fiddling with the phone.

He Juan had not opened his mouth yet when a familiar voice suddenly reverberated in the air. Taken aback, it took him one full second to realize that Mu Yuze was playing a string of voice notes from Kang Guanyu.

"Ughh sorry I am so bored that I don’t know what to do... you won’t get mad at me, right? I know you won’t!"

"Have you taken Mr. He home safely? Please send our team’s gratitude to him! Without him, there is no way we can catch Long Guozhi so fast!"

"We just got news from the other side and guess what? The Boss of Phoenix Ablaze suddenly decided to cancel the special midnight attraction! Some birdies told me that the Boss had just encountered a devil. He would like to go home as soon as possible and wash himself with salt to avoid bad luck. They also said that Phoenix Ablaze will stop operating for the rest of the month to perform a massive clean-up! Hahahaha, serve them right!"

Mu Yuze raised his eyelids and their gazes met in midair. He Juan pointed at his own nose, flabbergasted. It did not have anything to do with him... right??

Instead of replying, Mu Yuze pressed another voice note.

It seemed like quite a few hours had passed since the last voice note because Kang Guanyu sounded listless and sluggish in the voice note, even yawning in mid-sentence.

"Long Guozhi has finally confessed to the murder. Heh... he chose to take the blame and insisted it was his own agenda. Guess what he said his motives are?"

"He said that Miss Zhao has stolen something very important to him. As for what it is, he is adamant on keeping his mouth shut."
