POSSESSION: The Hidden Omega In All Alphas' Academy [BL]-Chapter 209: That scent?

Aiden’s raspy voice left Kylian a little awestruck as he wasn’t expecting him to be there to protect him since it had been quite a few times already when he was saved by Aiden from a bad fall. Turning his face around, when Kylian glanced at his dark hazel eyes fixated on him, it made him feel a little odd to notice there was a tint of obsession visible in them.

Since his wolf Morpheus was already concluding possible assumptions about Aiden’s gestures towards him, Kylian couldn’t stay calm and quickly unleashed himself from his rams, realizing his hold around his waist was getting a little tighter.

There was a momentary anticipating silence at first, but soon after getting a grip over his awkwardness, Kylian lividly smiled at him, "Oh...thank you for being there to protect me again, Aiden. It’s quite embarrassing to admit that we met at times when I tripped over..."

Aiden didn’t fail to notice the awkwardness hidden beneath his small smile but it left a small snort escape from him when he crossed his arms over his chest, answering in a rigid tone, "Well, I don’t mind it very much if you keep falling into my arms like this, Kylian. Just make sure to trip over whenever I am around you."

~ "I told you before too, this boy keeps hitting on you, but you’re too dense to even notice that, Kyle. Your naive nature sometimes irks me a lot..." When his wolf Morpheus grunted inside him all of a sudden, Kylian felt it a bit awkward to keep eye contact, especially after what Aiden had blatantly expressed.

Thus, he chose to press a small smile before urging in a stiff voice, "What...were you doing here, Aiden? I didn’t see you coming behind me—"

"Did you also forget that I also live on this same floor?" Aiden’s tone sounded a little surly when he pointed his thumb towards his room door, in front of which both of them coincidentally met at that moment.

Feeling a bit flustered to realize Kylian had actually forgotten about that, he chose to mask his awkwardness with a forged smile, "Oh...sorry, my bad. Alright, then...I will go back to my room. T-Thank you for saving me today as well, Aiden."

Kylian turned around and proceeded to head towards his room first, but before he could take a step ahead, he sensed Aiden march another step closer to him from behind, followed by a cold grunt, "It won’t do you any good if you keep sneaking outside the campus getting influenced by Zenith. His dad will back his shoulder if something goes wrong, but what about you? Do you have any spare choice if you get in trouble, Kylian?"

His cold rigid voice startled Kylian a bit, but he didn’t object to it since he knew what Aiden told right now was actually the truth. Zenith’s dad had the magnificent power to get him out of any trouble, but in comparison, he would be completely powerless...but he still felt a little irked to have Aiden point it out to him this way.

His expression turned solemn when Kylian turned around, meeting his cold eyes with his stiff grimace, "I know what I did was wrong, Aiden. But you’re mistaken...I wasn’t influenced by Zenith...it was rather my choice to go outside since it was the day off."

Initially, Aiden had assumed Kylian would be a little panicked to hear it that way from him, but watching him blatantly defend Zenith instead made him pretty startled for a brief moment. Narrowing his hazel eyes, Aiden let out a scornful smirk before marching another step closer, "It’s quite a rare sight to watch someone defend Zenith instead since he has always terrorized everyone here in this Academy. But I wonder, is there something different with you, Kylian?"

When he still hadn’t given a proper answer to Zenith’s confession despite being ardently in love with him, Kylian felt it would be safer to keep their relationship a secret from everyone, especially from all the boys of Zenith’s gang, including Aiden. Since the lesser number of people being aware would bring less attention to them.

Thus, with a shrug, Kylian masked a forged smile when he confidently lied, "I don’t understand what are you talking about, Aiden. You’re his friend, so...you should better know what’s going on with Zenith, instead of asking me. Isn’t it so?"

However, watching Kylian cleverly divert the topic to make sure he wouldn’t have to give him any clear answer to his question, Aiden felt a little irked inside, with the tensed feelings of jealousy stirred deep inside his heart.

Sensing his mixed emotional turbulence, his beta wolf Dazen bitterly grumbled inside him, making him feel even more agitated, "I had told you before...make a move on him first! But what’s the use of regretting it now when you kept dwindling your fingers while he seems to have already infatuated by Zenith?"

However, gritting his jowls hard, Aiden marched a step closer and uttered to Kylian in a hefty grumble, sounding very serious from his tone, "I am telling it for your sake, Kyle. Zenith has been with countless people until now, and all of them were brutally hurt after he tossed them away. So unless something like that happens to you next, you shouldn’t get deeply indulged with him—"

"Aiden, I have heard these words from you before...but the way you keep emphasizing on this point so that Zenith kept hurting everyone around him, it makes me wonder...you were next to him as his good friend, right? Why didn’t you stop him when he was going down the path of immorality? Why did you let him live that way...because if I was in your place, I would have never let my friend chose such a pathetic life..."

Before Aiden could finish his mumble, Kylian’s irked grumble paused him for a second while Kylian ardently expressed his inner thoughts that has been eating him inside from a long time. He couldn’t help but get irked at Aiden instead who became an accomplice of Zenith in his wrong deeds, and now...kept on instigating Kylian to stay away from Zenith.

Aiden couldn’t oppose his words initially since Kylian’s words were valid when he pointed out that he was wrong while addressing that way about his close friend.

But after a brief contemplation, with some anxious thoughts pondering in his mind, his expression turned a bit stiff when Aiden murmured at him, "I said that way...because I was worried for your sake, Kyle. We...are friends after all..."

"I know that we are friends, Aiden, so...let’s keep a healthy friendship between us, but you should also pay more attention towards the person who has been your friend way longer than me. The way you are concerned for me...you should show some concern to Zenith as well."

Kylian muttered in a low, rigid voice as if it was his way of indirectly drawing a boundary with Aiden since he couldn’t fail to notice quite a few times, that Aiden was being quite nosy about his relationship with Zenith. Also, Morpheus’s words echoed inside his mind from before also aided him in making it sound a bit more rigid.

As a keen observant guy, Aiden didn’t fail to notice that Kylian was indirectly asking him to stop being so nosy, but the aftermath of the realization had him feel a bit hurt since his weakness towards Kylian had been inadvertently growing, to the extent that his heart would flare with jealousy, just from the thought of Zenith being together with him.

But without bickering with him anymore, Aiden gave a small nod in response, even though his expression depicted that he was a little hurt by Kylian’s blunt answer.

With a big exhale, when Kylian thought of turning around to head back to his room, suddenly a shuddering chill ran down his spine making him unknowingly scatter a large amount of his sweet pheromones, compared to the normal amount!

’Damn...what was that?’

Confused by his newly transitioned body’s modifications, before he could step ahead, suddenly Aiden rushed closer and grabbed Kylian by his arm, with his voice sounding a bit wary from his tone, "Hey, Kyle...what’s this weird scent coming off you?"

Kylian had lowkey expected someone as sharp as Aiden wouldn’t fail to sense his sweet pheromones in the middle of the hallway when there were no other students around them.

But thankfully knowing that Aiden was a beta who wouldn’t be much affected by such a large splurge of omega pheromones that scattered out of the blue, but the thought made Kylian feel a bit at ease as he could sense his body temperature started rising a bit higher as well!

"Scent? Which scent are you talking about?" Kylian tried his best to keep a stoic face, even though his heart was pounding erratically fast from nervousness.

"What do you mean by that? Can’t you...sense these sweet scent wafting from you? It...almost feels like the scent of omega pheromones!" Aiden frowned his brows as his voice sounded quite solemn, when he directed his skeptical gaze deep into Kylian.
