I'm Not Yours, Alpha
I’m Not Yours, Alpha – Chapter 37

Madox rolled the omega’s back over his lap and hugged him tightly against him, holding back his urges and jealousy. He let out his pheromones, filling the room and drenching the boy with them, leaving him like jelly against him, soft and almost senseless without his claim. He wanted, no, he needed to erase that disgusting smell of alpha on omega, his omega. Just the thought of another touching him made him want to pull out his fangs, right there.

With his nose he nuzzled Julian’s head for a long time until it moved softly against his chest and purred. A dangerous sound and one that made the alpha use more strength than he intended to maintain control.

-He murmured against her hair as his fingers squeezed her buttocks against him, and although it didn’t sound like it, it had no s****l connotation whatsoever. He was an alpha and his primary instinct was to comfort and protect an unstable omega and body contact was very important.

-Hmm- Julian murmured against his chest and settled more against him, wrapping his arms around his waist. He felt comfortable, protected.

-Madox reached for his temple and kissed it.

One of his hands ran up the small of her back, over the nape of her neck and down to the scar hidden behind her hair. He’d seen it the first time they’d been together and could only think it must have been painful to recover from. It was big, at least it was about 10 stitches deep, the hair around it had grown to cover it and it was in a strategic area, at the bottom of his head, but still a scar for an omega was something that could mark them for a lifetime. After all, their body was the bottom line.

-Nothing,” the omega didn’t want to talk about it, he didn’t think it would be convenient. As territorial as Madox was, and even though they weren’t in a relationship, it wasn’t good for him to know about Nolan, that was his business.

-Do you insist on not telling me? Since when are you so cold to me,” Madox feigned annoyance.

-Nothing happened, really, it’s just that my heat is near,” he looked for an excuse.

Madox didn’t insist any more. Julian was a total mystery to him, from the day he met him to this day. Even though they had a strange relationship, he wasn’t able to say much about his problems. He remembered the first time they had met, or rather, the second time.

Years ago.

Madox had just received another of his much-talked-about awards and was in a good mood. He had also finished his work and had no more patients for the rest of the week, so a holiday of at least five days wouldn’t be bad for him. He had been working hard on his winning project for at least two years with successful results.

That night he was walking down the corridor towards the entrance. He looked at his watch, it read 9:00, he would have to break his plans with one of his dates as he was too tired to have any fun. A good night’s sleep would make up for it. He reached into his pocket for his car key only to find it wasn’t there. He searched through the rest of his pockets, even his purse, realizing he must have left it in the office.

He turned in the direction of his consulting rooms when he passed one where the doctor was talking to a nurse.

-Poor thing, I’ve never seen such a case before,” he lamented, “Her immunity to inhibitors is really a problem.

The topic of conversation caught Madox’s attention as he turned and addressed them, leaning back against the frame with a wolfish grin.

-What did I miss?

-Doctor Madox,” they both exclaimed, it wasn’t every day they had an eminence like him addressing them. They looked at each other and the doctor, after hesitating, handed him the tablet with the brief report on his patient.

-He is an omega. I was telling the nurse that he suffers from an immunity to inhibitors and is at the age when his oestrus manifests itself more intensely. In addition these cycles seem to be affected due to an anomaly in his brain caused by severe trauma to the lower part of his skull- Madox studied the paper with his dice without missing any detail of what the doctor was telling him. Really an interesting case- He came to the office to see if we had any medication to help him, he says that his heat is close and although he knows when he should get it more or less he is afraid that it will happen in an undesirable place-.

The alpha looked up with pleasure.

-He smiled at her and said, “Where is the patient?

The doctor could not reply and only pointed to the inside of his office. If Dr. Madox wanted a case, he had to give it to him, no one was better than him in that field. The alpha passed by and closed the door behind him, leaving the two betas outside, he liked to deal with issues in privacy and without anyone else giving their opinion on what they knew.

In front of the bureau sat a young man, his loose hair fell down his back, neither long nor short, the night breeze ruffled it gently but he couldn’t help but notice the beginnings of a mark on his lower back, so that was the scar he was referring to. He would have to look up his medical history later and find out where he had been treated, so that he could make a proper diagnosis.

He approached the table around it and took the doctor’s place with a smile on his face. In front of him, the boy looked up and then looked down again. Despite being an omega, he looked really tired and deteriorated. There were dark circles under his eyes, giving him to understand that he had not slept for a considerable time. He was quite young as he had confirmed by his file, exactly 19 years old, close to 20, a complicated stage for omegas and even more so when he had that condition.

-Good evening Julian, I’m doctor Madox and from today you’ll be under my supervision” that didn’t seem to take him by surprise, it was as if he didn’t know him and his name was quite popular at the moment but he continued anyway “Your case is quite specific, you have a deficiency of ometicin cells, the ones that allow the activation of the inhibitors in your body, quite rare since your hormone and pheromone levels seem to be in good shape”.

The alpha had noticed that the office was slowly filling with a sweet smell coming from the omega.

-Did you know that your heat is about to occur,” Madox was used to being surrounded by omegas both in and out of heat, in situations of pleasure or simply as a patient, so he had developed a really strong resistance against them. This did not detract from the fact that his instincts still commanded him to almost mate the omega in front of him.

He saw him nod.

-I know, but I have no choice,” his voice came out weak, typical of the moment he was going through, “I need an inhibitor as soon as possible, anything that will at least suppress even my scent. My neighbour is an alpha and last time he almost forced his way in my door,” he clasped his hands in his lap.

Madox frowned. He imagined it must be a complicated situation. The laws were never on the omegas’ side, and if the alpha did anything to him, he wouldn’t be charged, since rape of omegas in heat was not punishable by law.

-You haven’t thought of changing homes,” was a doubt that crossed his mind.

-I would if I could, but at the moment it’s not like I could move much from my house. I had to take a leave of absence from work because I’ve been in heat three times.

-In this year? They had only been three months so it was considerable that with their irregularity it was normal.

-In this month – the pen fell from the alpha’s fingers.

Three times in one month…?

But what the hell with this omega.
