Seikou, who was sleeping inside, opened his eyes and noticed Anka's actions. A faint smile flickered in the darkness as he turned and patted Anka's shoulder with his hand:

"Do you usually hold on to Uncle Monk like this in situations like this?"

"Okay." Anka replied, thinking to herself, 'So Sain wasn't asleep after all,' as she leaned against Lotte's body.

"I'm afraid of thunderstorms. Every time there's this kind of weather and my brother isn't around, Uncle Monk will come over and cuddle with me to sleep, and then I won't be scared anymore."

After hearing the little fellow's words, Lote's body stiffened noticeably. Holding him while sleeping, wasn't that pulling the little one into his embrace? Hmm, suddenly feeling a bit uncomfortable. Should he also hold on to him? But... wouldn't that be inappropriate?

An alpha holding an Omega to sleep. Growing up, other than when he was younger and would hold toys while sleeping, Lott has never even held a pillow while asleep. Furthermore, with his cleanliness obsession, he usually doesn't like getting close to others, let alone sleeping while holding someone.

Although I hold Anka, this innocent little girl, in a special place in my heart, there is still a certain unease that reflexively lingers... Moreover, with Alpha sleeping next to Omega, the possibility of accidentally getting intimate seems quite high.

Sein saw Lotte's embarrassment, so he grabbed Anka's hand and said, "Lotte is not used to being too close to others. Let me hold you and sleep, you don't have to be afraid."

Anyway, since Lotte has already hugged him today, it shouldn't be a problem for him to hug her back now... Sain silently thought to himself.

Upon hearing Sein's words, Anka glanced at Lotte. Lotte remained silent, indicating that the little guy knew he had overstepped his boundaries. Hastily releasing his grip, he apologized, "Sorry, I didn't know..."

Without...

Lotte's "It's okay" remained unspoken. At this moment, another thunderbolt roared outside, the tremendous sound causing Anka to be frightened, rolling over and diving into Sian's embrace. She pressed tightly against his chest, not forgetting to cover her ears with her hands.

"Don't be afraid."

Sean held the person tightly and comforted them in a soft voice. As he glanced over, he caught a glimpse of Lot looking at him, with an expression on his face that he couldn't quite decipher, as if he was somewhat unhappy... Is the War God feeling jealous? But well, the perks shouldn't be exclusively for him alone.

"Ugh, I hate thunderstorms so much..." Anka mumbled, covering her ears and nestling in Sain's embrace while anxiously squirming her body.

"It's okay, it's just the weather conditions. We will be fine inside the house... Be good..."

Seane gently patted the slender back and comforted in a soft voice. "Hmm, the touch is even better than I imagined. Although a bit thin, it feels really comfortable to hold. And Anka's fresh fragrance is very pleasant to smell. Such a person surely emits a sweet pheromone."

"Even though I know, I still feel scared..." Anka whispered softly, continuing to wriggle in Alpha's embrace...

"Um, Anka, don't move, let's go to sleep..."

After a while, Sain suddenly lowered his voice and spoke with a warning tone to the person wriggling in his arms like a bug, saying that his body was heated up by the person rubbing against him like a child.

"Okay." Anka responded, but she couldn't help feeling uneasy as the thunder rumbled.

"Umm... Anka!"

Seine's voice was unusually hoarse and deep. Suddenly, the pheromones belonging to an alpha started to increase rapidly and permeate the air. This caught Lotte off guard, who initially didn't want to interfere. Hastily, he forcefully pulled the person, wriggling like a worm, closer to Seine and firmly hugged them. He whispered in a low voice, saying:

"Do you want trouble? Quietly go to sleep... Saien, calm down."

"Uh, I'm afraid..."

Anka looked up, although unable to clearly see Lote's expression, he knew that Lote must also be looking down at him. He continued to nuzzle... completely unaware that as a fake beta, it was dangerous to rub against an alpha like this.

"I'll cover your ears for you, so you can relax and have a peaceful sleep... Stop tossing and turning."

Rote put his broad and generous hand over Anka's ears, allowing him to relax. However, he did not expect that when he let go of his hands, Anka would suddenly wrap his arms around his waist and press his soft and supple body tightly against him.

Lot was shocked, and finally understood why Sain had lost control.

The pure scent and body of the little person, even with suppressants suppressing them, were still slightly discernible due to the short distance and lack of clothing fabric. They were stronger than the average alpha, so that unique and sweet aroma exclusive to natural omegas could still be faintly detected. There exists an inherent attraction between omegas and alphas, and such intimate contact and friction would surely have an effect on one's lower half.

Took a deep breath in secret, Lote closed his eyes, deliberately ignoring the faint sweetness lingering at the tip of his nose.

"Lot..."

"Stop talking."

Before Anka could speak, Lot interrupted him. The person in his arms was speaking, and their breath brushed against his chest, even through the thin shirt. That kind of teasing sensation was lethal, and no matter how strong his self-control was, he couldn't resist it.

"Anka, can we go to sleep? We're tired and want to rest," Lotte whispered hoarsely.

"Mmm, alright... I... I won't move..." the oblivious little one weakly replied, their hand resting on Lot's waist gently patting, saying, "Be good, if you're tired, go to sleep..."

Luote: ... Is this little brat really in need of some disciplining?

Sean: "Pfft—"

After a while, Sien, who had calmed down inside, mocked himself, saying, "Ha, we're such... losers."

Luo Te did not refute. Indeed, it turned out their composure could be so weak, unable to withstand such a pure, unconscious yet deadly temptation.

"Crash—"

The sound of splashing echoed --

After a thunderstorm, the only sound outside was the pouring rain relentlessly washing away. Inside the house, it became much cooler. Anca, who was in Lote's arms, had already fallen asleep. Her whole body relaxed, and as Lote smelled the fragrant, soft, and sweet scent, his adrenaline continued to rise. If he didn't have strong self-control, the situation might have been troublesome.

Gently pushing the soundly sleeping person to the middle of the bed, creating a gap, Lotte finally let out a sigh of relief. A faint heat emanated from her lower abdomen, hmm, this was really damn troublesome.
