Chapter 17: Noah’s Scheme
Yu Mian waited outside the ward and suddenly smelled pheromones.
His expression changed sharply.
Elaine’s pheromones were intertwined with an unfamiliar scent, carrying a soothing quality that anyone could sense.
His big brother had marked Shi Sheng?!
Once an Alpha of the Carlos family marked an Omega, the other party would also be affected by the curse!
Just like Yu Mian’s mother. The curse had made her body grow weaker day by day, causing her to leave this world early.
As for Shi Sheng, before tonight, Yu Mian had not cared at all whether he would be marked by his big brother.
After all, he was merely an impostor Big Brother did not like. What did it matter whether he died sooner or later?
Yu Mian had never been a kind person.
But Shi Sheng had protected him in a moment of danger.
His skills had been personally taught by the best knight in the capital. Did he really need a powerless Omega like Shi Sheng to save him?!
Yu Mian felt that he should be calling Shi Sheng an idiot.
But in this moment, he thought of nothing. He only anxiously pushed open the ward door.
“Big Brother! You can’t!”
But the scene inside the ward made him freeze.
After a frantic round of emergency treatment, Shi Sheng was already sleeping quietly. The Omega’s face was as pale as the snow-white blanket, but his condition had stabilized.
Elaine sat beside the bed, holding Shi Sheng’s hand of his own accord, his eyes lowered as if thinking about something.
Yu Mian stood awkwardly at the door, unsure whether to go in or retreat.
Elaine only glanced at him and told him with his eyes to be quiet.
“…Is he all right now?” Yu Mian asked in a breathy whisper.
“Go rest.” Elaine rarely showed concern for his younger brother, but immediately followed with, “Don’t disturb him.”
Yu Mian gave an “oh” and went out with his mind blank.
He let out a breath of relief. Judging from the situation, there probably had not been a mark.
But why did he feel…
Before closing the door, Yu Mian could not help looking back again.
His already uneasy mood grew even heavier.
His big brother’s eyes looked very unfamiliar. That was not an expression that should appear on the face of the Empire’s Thanatos.
Could Big Brother really have developed feelings for this Omega randomly assigned to him by the imperial family?
But every member of the Carlos family was unworthy of developing such feelings.
Yu Mian closed his eyes and suppressed the anxiety in his heart.
Because of the accident, the royal ball was forced to end early.
Noah stood beneath the moonlight. This was the path the crown prince had to take to return to his sleeping quarters.
His plan had failed. He had to find another way to draw the crown prince’s attention.
Fortunately, he still had this important gland.
Noah gritted his teeth, pulled out the drug he had been hiding in his sleeve, and drank it all.
This was a forbidden drug that could trigger an Omega’s pheromones to go out of control.
If Izel had not ruined things, he would not have had to take this step so soon!
And Yu Mian too—
Because he was an Omega and still young, Yu Mian had always been Noah’s first choice for breaking through the Carlos family in his plan.
Noah had read in the forbidden books left behind by his father that ever since the Carlos family was cursed, their blood had become different from that of ordinary people.
He had spent a great deal of effort to buy an ancient incense that could make magical beasts precisely attack a target, all so Yu Mian would be injured and the Carlos family’s secret would be exposed in public!
But damn it, how had that Omega who had only married in a few days ago happened to ruin everything?
But it did not matter. He had long since stolen Yu Mian’s cufflink. It was made from a gemstone of which there was only one in the entire capital. Everyone knew it belonged to Yu Mian.
He had plenty of ways to pin this accident on Yu Mian.
Noah smiled. The drug gradually took effect, causing his pheromones to slowly spread into the surroundings.
The sound of footsteps gradually came closer.
Crown Prince Ning Zhao had found him.
