The Ruthless Young Master, Kept After His Fall - Chapter 1

I hid in a corner, grinding my teeth as I stared at the group chat.

Everyone in it was the child of some powerful family. Just one day ago, they had all been my lackeys. Every last one of them had knelt before me and barked like a dog.

Now they discussed me without the slightest restraint.

【I want to tie a bow around Young Master Li. Two on top, one below.】

【Bullshit. I’m going to pierce a few rings into him myself.】

【Add some chains, too. Hang him up—or pin him into a wall, heh heh.】

【It’s okay that Marshal Daddy is gone, Young Master Li. We’ll take very good care of you from now on. @Li Yu】

【Are you hiding, baby? We’re coming to find you. @Li Yu】

Resisting the urge to smash my phone, I noted the latest locations those bastards had posted.

I had to leave the Capital Star as soon as possible. My only option was to buy a false identity and a ticket on the black market.

I went to great lengths to disguise myself, but I still ran into hunters there. Not the ones from the chat, but every one of them was an Alpha.

I turned and ran.

They laughed as they released arousal-inducing pheromones. I was in the last, most vulnerable stage of presenting. Their pheromones drove me into a burning heat in an instant, and my legs gave way beneath me.

Pain tore across my scalp. Someone fisted a hand in my hair and forced my head up.

“Tsk. Such clean pheromones.”

“Ha! New glands are always like that.”

“Enough talk. Spread him open. Who’s first?”

“Kill me if you’ve got the guts,” I snarled. “Otherwise—”

“Otherwise you’ll squeeze me to death?” one of them said.

The others burst out laughing.

My skull buzzed with rage. My father and brothers were all top-tier Alphas. Why the hell had I turned out to be an Omega?

If I had been a top-tier Alpha too, I would have chopped these scum into pieces!

My vision darkened as countless hands reached for me—

A new Alpha’s pheromones crashed over us.

The stench of the scum was suppressed at once, receding like the tide until nothing remained but the cool, clean scent of rosemary.

A top-tier Alpha.

Every hand tearing at me vanished. I heard the scum’s teeth begin to chatter.

Then a man’s lazy voice said, “Sorry, but this young master has already been reserved by our client.”

He swept me up in his arms. My sight blurred with heat, but I forced out, “Wait.”

“Hm?”

“Castrate those bastards. Cut out their glands too.”

“Ninety-nine coins.”

I pulled out my earring and stuffed it into his pocket. “Premium Starshimmer stone. Keep the change.”
