"San~"
"Pstt Sani~"
"Choi San~"
San sighs and turns to his right with an eyeroll where sat his best friend, an annoyingly noisy but endearing beta named Jung Wooyoung.
"What," San replied, bored.
"Sani, did you hear about Mr. Kang? He got fired, got caught red-handed stealing money by the boss Park himself." Wooyoung snickers at the look on San's face.
"Really? No way, we're finally free from the deadly clutches of Kang?" San chuckles, turning over a page on the file he's working on while keeping his eyes on his laptop.
"Yes, But you won't believe his replacement!"
"Already? That was quick, do we know him?" San says with a quirk of an eyebrow.
"Jeong Yunho, Sani!" San halts typing abruptly, "That alpha friend of yours in university? The one that used to come over a lot, always with those flowers, chocolates and I was 101% sure he was madly in love with you but you-"
San gulps and turns to Wooyoung with wide eyes, "what."
"Yes, it's him. Isn't he impressive? We used to study together and– hey! where are you going?"
"Need to pee, I'll be-- I'll be back."
San runs to the restroom and directly splashes his face with water as soon as he enters. He runs a wet hand through his hair and sighs frustratingly.
"Fuck my life, why did it have to be him! I really can't do this-- I can't! How am I going to face him…"
He stares into the mirror and strokes his dyed blonde hair with his fingers to settle them back into place. He retucks his shirt into his pants and straightens out the tie and ID card around his neck.
Biting on his lip, He takes another deep breath and walks out of the room, tension apparent between his shoulders.
Just as he takes the final turn towards his desk he sees Wooyoung already standing and conversing with Park Haejin the CEO and-- Jeong Yunho, their department head from now on.
San ceases walking but he can't tear his eyes from the alpha's face. He looks the same as he did years ago. Tall, broad-shouldered, round nose, thin peachy lips, his warm dark chocolate scent, and shiny brown eyes– that are staring right at him.
Shit.
San adverts his eyes and walks forward, stopping right beside Wooyoung.
"Oh, San, you're here." the CEO claps him on the back, "Meet your new department head, Jeong Yunho. Yunho meet-"
"Choi San." The alpha breathes.
"You both know each other?"
"Yes...sir, we're-"
"Classmates! We were classmates, me, Wooyoung and Yunho…shi." San hurriedly reacts looking up for the very first time and recognizing the hurt in Yunho's eyes.
"Oh, that's good then. Anyways have a pleasant day Wooyoung and San, work hard both of you. Come on Yunho, let's greet the rest."
"Well…that was awkward," Wooyoung whispers as soon as they leave. San rolls his eyes and smacks the beta on his shoulder, who whines in return.
The whole day San feels eyes on him, even after everyone gets settled and they start working on their articles San knows he is still looking, but he doesn't dare look up and meet his eyes. He can't. Not after what happened.
Bitter, thick, cold. That’s what Yunho's coffee tastes like this morning. Or maybe that's just him. Maybe that's just his mood.
He saw him again. The one he attempted so fucking hard to forget but couldn't. The one that's been on his mind all these years. The one that smashed his heart into millions of fractions but the stubborn thing still only beat for him.
He saw him again and the first thing the other did was stab him in the chest once again. But Yunho doesn't care anymore, he doesn't want to go through that again, and he doesn't want to suffer again. He doesn't want to fall into the other again.
Except he does, glimpsing the omega again, hearing his voice, and engulfing in his scent was anything but agonizing for Yunho. He would've thought after everything that happened he would've hated San, hated being near him, hated seeing him again, he thought maybe his feelings have finally faded but instead, they just grew firmer.
Yunho sighs and angles his head one way and then the other in a struggle to alleviate the tension already huddled in his shoulders and neck. He takes a moment to shut his eyes and center himself but as soon as he opens them back they land directly on the omega making Yunho sigh tiredly.
'I really can't run from you can i'
Wherever they are, Yunho always keeps his eyes on him. On Monday, San is at the morning meeting that's organized to get everyone used to their new leader. Yunho's at the end of the long table, but his eyes burn a hole on the side of his face. San doesn't return his gaze even once.
It’ll be complicated with Yunho for sure, it became clear on the very first day but San still had the small expectation that maybe, just maybe Yunho forgot everything in the past. Maybe they could be friends again, even after what Yunho did. But that was confirmed false instantly by the alpha's actions towards him.
Yunho doesn't stop staring even when the others speak, doesn't stop even when he's inquired, his eyes always travel back to the omega. San keeps himself occupied with Wooyoung and he's pretty sure the beta knows he's avoiding Yunho with the way he keeps smirking.
"–you think, San?"
San focuses on the alpha when his name is called, finally making eye contact with him. He sees Yunho's gaze soften until it turns serious again.
"Were you not paying attention?" he raises a brow and San stutters.
"I-I'm sorry I was just-"
"You weren't paying attention, were you? Rather you were gossiping with Wooyoung the whole time, I didn't see you contributing to the conversation at any point. Is this why everyone was called into a meeting so early, San? To waste time?"
San whirls his eyes to his lap, "Sorry, sir."
"Look at me while answering."
San glares at the other when he feels his scent souring and dispersing into the room.
"I'm sorry, sir. I won't do it again."
He turns red in humiliation when he glances around and watches some of his coworkers covering their noses while others are sitting with scrunched-up faces.
When the meeting finishes, San sprints to his desk as rapidly as he can, leaving Wooyoung behind, calling out for him.
It seems like Yunho's made it his life’s goal to make San's work-life nightmare. He keeps picking on him more often than not. San hates it, he hates the attention he gets from the alpha and he hates the stares he gets from others. He tries his best to just spend his entire day on his desk to ignore Yunho, but the alpha finds one way or another to get under his skin. San tries to look completely unbothered and he knows it pisses Yunho off but he doesn't care. He still doesn't know why the other is acting like this. He believed they were friends. He doesn't even know if Yunho knows what he did that night, he's probably just petty about San ignoring him the rest of university year.
San loathes the intense way the alpha looks at him, for some motive the look on his face when he gazes at San makes the omega feel guilty. But all the guilt evaporates away as soon as Yunho opens his mouth.
"I hate this, I hate him!" San whisper-yells.
"I know he's a little strict Sani but-"
"Strict? No, he's annoying! He doesn't take me seriously at all! Always calling me to his cabin and delivering me all these stupid tasks. Yesterday, he gave me multiple papers saying, 'punch and organize them from latest to oldest', that's not my work Woo!" He fumes.
"I must agree though, it's weird to see you both like this. You used to be so close, I still remember how he was always all over you-"
"He wasn't-"
"San?" Chaewon stands in front of his desk and places two files on his table, "Sani, Mr. Jeong has asked you to make photocopies of each file and bring it to him before lunch, okay?" she gleams and ruffles his hair before leaving to her desk.
San turns to Wooyoung with an irritated look and raises a brow, 'see?'
Yunho spots San and his friends in the cafeteria during lunch and decides to join them for the reason of being bored and lonely. Which isn't really a lie but it is an excuse to have any sort of interaction with the omega.
He sees San's smile drop as soon as he spots Yunho coming over and he clenches his fist when San looks away.
The others greet him with excited gasps and Yunho smiles back, his eyes stuck on the only one who doesn't seem to be as delighted to see him as the rest.
“So, can you at least give us some detail about yourself, Yunho-shi?” Nayeon asks, propping her cheek on her fist.
“Well you already know my name, I'm 23 and I have a-"
"Not that's kind of stuff, I meant do you have a girlfriend?" she bats her eyelashes flirtingly, "or a boyfriend," a bored voice cuts in.
"No," Yunho chuckles, "I don't, I'm single."
Some of them gasp, "What?! Not possible, someone as handsome, young, and rich as you is single?! My God, Jaemin~ I'm gonna die single, I tell you!"
"Shut up, Minhyuk." the same bored voice retorts.
"But…I do have my eyes on someone." Yunho proceeds and everyone turns to him excitedly.
"Really? Who is it?!"
"Yeah tell us, Mr. Jeong!"
"I knew it!"
"So lucky~"
"Do you like them?"
Yunho turns to Chaewon, "A lot. I like them a lot."
"What do you like about them?" she asks, glancing at San but Yunho doesn't catch it.
"Everything. From his gorgeous brown eyes, his pretty smile, his cheeks that turn red whenever he gets shy, his scent, and his hands that fit perfectly into mine. I love how he's the only one who makes my heart race. How he knows what he wants, and he always goes after it, but at the same time he can also be a little bit of an idiot." Yunho laughs, lifting his eyes to the only one in the room he can see, "I love how no matter how hard I try, it's still him. How even after all these years…it's still him, I love how much I love him."
For the first time in a while, San looks him in the eye, and Yunho notes his stiff shoulders and trembling hands. But he also sees the recognition in his eyes. Abruptly the omega stands up and scampers away, his best friend following behind and Yunho clenches his jaw, looking away as his Alpha growls.
"Sani~" Yunho whines.
"Yes, Yuyu?" San replies, weak but fond.
"Why don't you understand!" the alpha frowns with his eyes closed, dropping all his weight on San as the omega attempts to walk him back home.
"And what do I not understand puppy?" San laughs and waits for Yunho but he never responds. The alpha keeps silent until they arrive at his apartment and San fumbles with the keys to get the door to open.
As soon as it clicks open San grabs Yunho with both hands again but he's pushed inside and the door slams shut, making the omega flinch. Yunho backs him into the wall and positions both hands beside his head, leaning close and this time San flinches because of his strong chocolaty scent engulfing him, sending him into a daze.
"Yun-"
"I love you."
San's jaw tenses and he looks at Yunho with restless eyes. “I know…I love you too, you're my best friend.”
“San.”
“Yunho, please.”
“No, listen,” Yunho says, voice strained, chest twisting as San's expression grows pained.
“Yunho, I don’t think we should have this talk right now.”
“I love you so much, Sani,” Yunho whispers, closes his eyes and leans his forehead on San's. “So much, it just—” He presses his hand onto his chest, “Hurts. Because you don't love me back.”
“You're drunk, Yun,” San says softly.
"Why don't you want me?" San shakes his head as he senses tears gathering in his eyes. "I love you so much San. Love your eyes and lips, your dimples, and these stars on your neck." Yunho presses closer when San tries to squirm away, "Wanna hold you San, wanna kiss and touch you, wanna scent you, lay with you in my arms. You make my heart beat so fucking fast but also…you make it hurt when you don't look at me. Why don't you look at me?"
"Let me go Yunho." San squirms and tries to push Yunho off, "please, you're drunk, don't do this to me I can't-"
"Don't leave. Just- won't say anything, don't leave," Yunho slurs, eyes shutting close and San sighs.
He brings the alpha to his bed and sits beside his head.
"You say this when you're drunk, so why didn't you say it when I asked you all those times you were sober? How do you expect me to believe you like this?"
Yawning, Yunho lifts his head from the pillow to San's lap and San runs his fingers through his hair as he silently cries.
Yunho slams a stack of papers onto his desk making San look up with a frown.
"Work on this report and bring it to my office. You have three hours."
"But I'm already-"
"I said three hours. And bring it yourself this time." The alpha walks away as San watches him with a frown.
"Hey San, are you done with your part?" Rowoon stops right beside him while he's still typing and bends down to peer into San's laptop.
"Yes hyung, im almost done, just have to print them and I'll bring them to your desk. Thanks for supporting me once again Hyung." he glances at the alpha thankfully.
"No problem Sani, come over once your done, I'll organize it for you." he ruffles San's hair before leaving, making him giggle.
When he's done he walks to the alpha and squeaks happily, "Finally, I'm done!" He glances at the clock, "and before my deadline too!"
The older chuckles and pinches his cheek making San turn pink and bite his lip. Kim Rowoon is a very handsome alpha, towering over San, broad, with his black hair parted at the side he looks especially attractive in his office attire.
"You're so cute, San-ah. Good luck, you did so well." he lifts his hand and San raises his own to high-five him but the older swipes it at the last moment, making the omega pout.
Rowoon raises his hand again but San sees the teasing glint in his eyes so he stands on his tip toes to hit his hand but this time the older removes it entirely making San stumble and fall on him.
"S-Sorry, Hyung I didn't-" San stuttered, but the older just laughs.
"No, no I'm sorry, I was just teasing you. But you should go because I see someone's not in a good mood." he points behind him.
San's eye widens and he thanks Rowoon one last time before running to Yunho's office.
The alpha bangs the file onto his table making San flinch. "That's what you're giving me?"
"Do you know how many blunders I found in there? Can't you do even one thing accurately San?"
"Sir, they must be minor mistakes because i-"
"Minor mistakes? So if mistakes are minor or secondary they can be done? Do you think this is some kind of joke? Do you know the meaning of this minor fault of yours? Do you know how much loss the company could face because of this?"
"I'm…sorry I'll-" San sniffs, tears forming in his eyes.
"What do you think of yourself huh?" Yunho stands up and steps forward making San take a step back, "you think I'll forgive your mistakes all the time?"
"That's what happens when you don't pay attention, when you're always chatting during meetings and flirting with coworkers during free time. This isn't college or university San, you need to be serious here. If you can't, you should just fucking quit!"
"What? Where that even come from?!" San sputters.
"Forget it San, I'm so tired I don't care anymore. I don't…care about you anymore so just please spare me."
Yunho turns around and tries to walk away but San catches his arm, making him turn to him again, "that's not… what are you saying Yunho?" he asks desperately.
San grabs Yunho's collar and yanks him when he doesn't answer, "tell me! What are you saying?!"
“I did everything, San, and you didn’t care! I tried courting you, gave you all those gifts, fucking confessed and you fucking left me alone!” he snaps.
"What." San steps back and Yunho follows.
"You left, even when I told you not to! Why did you let me suffer like that San?! If you didn't love me why didn't you just end it?! Why not tell it to me-"
"Because I did! I loved you!"
“No, you fucking didn't! I told you that, fucking poured out my heart to you just for you to avoid me and disappear from my fucking life!”
"Fuck you, Yunho, fuck you. I'm leaving," San huffs. He catches san’s wrist and jerks him behind.
"Where are you going?" he simmers.
"I'm leaving. You can't just blame me for everything when you're just as guilty."
Yunho snarls and his alpha positions, pressing into San’s space until his back hits the wall. San fights against him but Yunho slams a fist in the space by San’s head, his other hand gripping San’s waist and holding him in place. "You remember the last time we were in this position?"
San growls at him and Yunho bares his teeth against his neck, nosing along the skin and inhaling, letting the warmth of minty vanilla wash over him entirely. “When I told you I loved you.”
San whimpers but shoves at his shoulders. His hands fist into his shirt and he yanks Yunho down, smashing their lips together in a desperate kiss.
Fuck he's craved this for so long.
San's grasp on Yunho's shirt tightens when he slips his tongue into his mouth. He mewls and Yunho growls, feeling hasty friction against the front of his pants, realizing San's frantically grinding against him.
Yunho tears open his shirt and buries his face into San's neck as he unbuttons his pants and sticks a hand in, rubbing at his hole. He sticks two fingers in, grabbing san's leg with his hand other hand and placing it on his shoulder. San's already moaning and writhing beneath him. As he scissors a third finger into his body it's just otherworldly. He’s visualized about this for so long, about being above the omega, fucking into his mouth and ass more times than is possibly decent. But he needs it. He needs to know San feels the same.
"You said you loved me? Do you still feel the same?"
"W-Would I be here right now if I-ah, d-didn't?"
"Then say it," Yunho pleads, and San cups his face, looking into his eyes lovingly.
"I love you."
"Again,"
"I love you, Yunho."
"Again,"
"love you, alpha-"
Yunho kisses him again, biting his lips and licking them when San moans, he presses small kisses onto his pretty pink lips as he caresses his face gently.
“Yun,” San groans, pulling back as he ruts onto the fingers scraping his sweet spot.
“What do you need, baby?” Yunho whispers, curling his wrist a little, making sure to go in deep as San pants his name a few more times.
“I... I need you. ”
“I'm here.”
"Please, please, please, Yuyu, please wanted you for so long, fuck me, please, I need you, it hurts, fuck-" Yunho licks into him and he opens up, moaning and rolling his hips into San until San is shuffling between them desperately, probing open buttons and yanking down Yunho’s zipper, pumping his cock.
Yunho growls a rumble low in his chest, a dangerous and frustrated sound as his eyes flash red. He removes his fingers, lines up his cock, and slides in one sure roll of his hips, San's slick making it more pleasurable than painful.
“Fuck," San curses, gasping as his hands fly to hold onto Yunho's shoulders.
“Is this your first time?” Yunho asks.
San flushes and shakes his head, “N-no,” he mutters. “b-before Woo they accidentally paired me with an alpha as roommates and our c-cycles synced. He helped me through my heat.”
Jealousy flares up in Yunho's chest, his alpha commanding him to fuck San so good that he neglects another wolf ever even had his cock in him. So he does just that.
“Mine,” he growls, pulling out painstakingly slowly until his tip is just at the edge of San's hole. He slams back in suddenly and San arches his back, sobbing.
Yunho picks up a violent pace after that, slamming into San with no remorse. The sound of his balls slapping San’s ass fills the room and it’s so fucking dirty, he loves it.
He peppers kisses across San’s skin, leaving bite marks after every other kiss. Yunho can’t help it; his alpha is possessive after finally having his omega in his arms after yearning for so long. He trails his nose down San’s chest and San clenches around him just as he lifts his head from one nipple, a high-pitched whine filling the air and cum shooting up to Yunho’s jaw.
The alpha's knot is almost fully swollen, stressing to be buried in his omega. With one more incredibly aggressive thrust, the knot breaches the omega's rim and he cums in thick white ropes.
San hums, pleased. They stay there until the knot begins to go down, and the alpha shifts to pull his softening cock out of San’s puffy, swollen hole. The omega whines in protest as slick and cum start leaking out of the loose muscle down his leg and Yunho shushes him, pressing kisses on his entire face.
"Let me take you home, let me take care of you there?"
San nods, smiling dreamily and Yunho dives in to capture his lips again.
