On that night, the full moon hung high in the sky.

A heartbreaking scream pierced through the night sky, followed by the blaring sound of an alarm, and several loud gunshots intensified the sense of urgent panic.

A figure with huge black wings swiftly swooped by, carrying a delicate little person in its arms.

They were closely followed by police officers armed with guns. Every now and then, a few bullets would whizz through the air, narrowly grazing the enormous, skeleton-like bat wings behind them.

The person in their embrace was terrified, curling up and trembling more and more intensely. That timid and trembling fear seeped into their heart through the strong arms that held them, making their already bloodshot eyes burn with anger, mostly out of concern.

Two sharp fangs grew out of the man's mouth. He fiercely bit into his pale wrist, breaking the skin. Immediately, a stream of crimson blood gushed out and, guided by his telekinesis, quickly gathered into solidified blood droplets. With a command, they flew behind him at an invisible speed, "Kill!"

This is the unique ability of the Shuyue Star people. They can manipulate their own blood to form their ultimate weapon. Furthermore, during the night of the full moon, their various abilities as Star people are greatly enhanced. They bear a striking resemblance to the descendants of ancient Earth's vampires, making them also known as the Moon Clan.

After a few miserable screams, the pursuit finally weakened. He spread his wings with all his might, carrying the person in his arms, and temporarily shook off the group of police officers chasing behind him.

The two of them flew a long distance, until the Moon Clan couldn't hold on any longer and finally landed on a floor of a building that was still under construction.

The tip of the shoe touched the ground, and then the enormous black bone wings slowly closed and gathered on its back.

There are only two circumstances in which the Moon Clan's wings are unable to be concealed within the scapulae of their backs: either due to severe injuries or insufficient abilities resulting from a low rank.

Sai Ye belongs to the former group. In order to protect his beloved in his arms, he bravely endured two instinctively dodged bullets, which hit his back and abdomen respectively. Although they were not fatal, the excessive blood loss significantly weakened his abilities.

He retracted his fangs, his black short hair in disarray, gently brushing his recently established omega partner's cheek with his chin. His voice, like the gentlest evening breeze, murmured, "Darling, it's alright..."

That evening, the lights were on in the Military Headquarters, and everyone was on strict standby, waiting for Gu Chenzhou to arrive. Everything had already been restored and in perfect order.

"At 2:07 am, General Situ encountered an attack from the Moon Clan while on a mission, resulting in his injury and the sacrifice of two fellow soldiers. At the same time, his family also suffered a similar attack, but security measures were taken and there were no casualties for now... However, his omega wife has been taken hostage," Qi Mu quickly reported to Gu Chenzhou as they hurried along.

A few people walked into the high-level office together, and Gu Chenzhou calmly said, "We came for Situ."

"Yes," Qimu said, "We're currently investigating. Brigadier General Sutu should know who the culprit is."

Gu Chenzhou asked, "Where are the others?"

Qi Mu said, "His shoulder was pierced, and he is currently in the hospital. However, I heard that his emotions are not very stable. If it weren't for his accompanying deputy who is suppressing him, he would have probably rushed out regardless and chased after the culprit."

Gu Chenzhou did not show much of a reaction to this. He simply said, "Let him come find me. I need to think about what to say. Also, conduct a thorough investigation of the surveillance near his house. Omega wouldn't just casually leave on their own, so it's likely that a member of the Moon clan appeared in the vicinity and took him away from the military family housing area. They must have been lurking nearby."

Qi Mu nodded and said, "Yes, Marshal."

"Marshal, let me handle this case," Qiuzichao said angrily, "This Shuyue Star has become increasingly audacious in recent years! Not only do they covet our territory, but they also dare to have designs on our omegas! And now they have the audacity to openly snatch someone's wife! It's simply outrageous!"

Gu Chenzhou glanced at him faintly and said, "Regardless of the situation, the bilateral treaty between our two countries still stands. At least on the surface, we are peacefully coexisting, so it is not advisable to act rashly. I will immediately report this matter to the king."

Qiuzichao placed both hands on the table, feeling frustrated he said, "So are we just going to allow those Moon Clan people to run wild on our territory?"

Gu Chenzhou looked at him, but his words were directed towards Qi Mu: "Continue the investigation until the person is captured. Qi Mu, you go handle it."

"Yes, Marshal," Qi Mu responded, and then calmly patted Qiu Zichao's shoulder. "You need to calm down."

Gu Chenzhou also said, "Zichao, your emotions have been off lately."

Outside of official matters, the three of them were also good buddies. Reminded by their words, Qiu Zichao finally realized that he had indeed become overly emotional just now. He lowered his head and sorrowfully said, "Big Brother, I'm sorry. It was my impulsiveness."

Gu Chenzhou raised an eyebrow, indicating that he didn't actually care.

Qi Mu laughed and teased, "Gu Ge is right, Lao San, you have indeed been acting very unusual lately. Could it be... your sensitive period is approaching?"

"Alpha's sensitive period is not comparable to omega's heat period. Their emotions become irritable before it arrives, particularly during those three days of sensitivity. The instinctive release of hormones during this period triggers a surge in alpha's emotions. At that time, the alpha will completely surrender to the desires, becoming restless and craving mating. If there is no partner to accompany them during this time, it will not only result in complete loss of reason, but they will also impulsively throw themselves at anyone they come across. Additionally, after the sensitive period passes, the body will suffer significant residual effects and require a long period of recovery."

And for extraordinary caliber alphas like them, it generally only takes one suppressant to manage the rest of their endeavors with ease, relying solely on their formidable and resolute willpower.

"How about it, longing for an omega?" Qi Mu jeered. "I've been saying that you've been single for so long, it's about time you found a partner. With your status and position, aren't all the omegas in the city at your disposal? Isn't there a single one that catches your eye?"

"Hmph," Qiu Zichao sneered, "It's such a hassle to raise an omega, always delicate and constantly needing someone to pamper them. And on top of that, there's the Omega Protection League, making a big fuss out of every little thing, as if their omega is made of gold... I have no interest in kissing up to an omega."

"Fine," Qi Mu shrugged helplessly, "since you don't want an Omega and you find others dirty, it serves you right to rely on suppressants for the rest of your life."

"I won't talk anymore. I need to go to work and come home early tonight to spend time with my wife," Qi Mu said as he took the documents and prepared to leave.

Qiu Zichao couldn't understand people with families like them at all. He wondered, "Don't you find this daily routine tiresome?"

Qi Mu immediately turned around and pointed with the corner of his book at him. "Let me tell you, if you keep saying that, be careful of me punching you! How could a perennial bachelor like you possibly understand the joy of having a lovely wife!"

Qiuzichao was at a loss for words when faced with the criticism. "I..."

After Qi Mu left, Qiu Zichao awkwardly touched his nose and said, "Brother, can you understand?"

Gu Chenzhou glanced at him silently and said coldly, "Are you free? Got nothing better to do?"

"M..m..my work is overflowing, please don't make me work overtime..." Qiu Zichao said hurriedly before running away.
