Into The Rose Garden

Vol. 1 Chapter Scene #1 - Once upon a dream

He saw a beautiful rose garden blossoming into colorful flowers.

Aelock, from the Teiwind family, strolled leisurely through the green space, bathed in early summer sunshine. Recently, he received several proposals from various households. It was his duty as the successor to his family to choose a suitable omega and get married, and Aelock thought that was expected of him.

He planned to evaluate the omegas carefully, just like selecting roses. They shouldn’t be too ignorant, but it would also be troublesome if they were too smart. It was fine if they had a certain level of wealth, but it wasn’t necessary for them to be excessively rich. They should be cultured and well-behaved. Preferably, a female omega. Male omegas often couldn’t give birth to many children and had a high risk of dying during childbirth.

His own mother was a male omega, and giving birth to him had compromised his health. Although a single child could monopolize their parents’ attention, Aelock believed that having more children was better. If he chose a female omega, she could give birth to numerous energetic children and fill this spacious garden with life. That’s how Aelock dreamed. If he hadn’t encountered a lost young man from the countryside in the garden that day.

Tall and handsome, he had none of the sophistication of city aristocracy. Instead, he possessed an upright, innocent, and kind smile that anyone could recognize at a glance. Being invited to the Count’s tea party, the guy had wandered a bit in the garden and lost his way. Aelock kindly led him to the rose garden where the party was being held.

“I am Aelock Teiwind. And you?”

“Klopp Bandyke.”

In front of the rose garden, Klopp showed a faint smile as he looked at Aelock. At that moment, Aelock experienced a cliche feeling that could only be expressed as a fluttering of the heart. As they shook hands, Aelock stared into Klopp’s dark brown eyes. And his serious pupils were directed at him.

Aelock saw himself reflected in those eyes. His eyes were wide, his mouth slightly open, gazing at the other person absentmindedly. He looked like a young boy falling in love. So he smiled, not with a subtle fragrance-like smile, but brightly and vividly, like a rosebud bursting open with all its might in the early summer.

A rose was most beautiful right before it fully bloomed. Once a bud burst open, it would soon wither and lose its vibrancy when getting hit by rain.

When he returned to the estate, risking his life, and had their second child, there was a woman who approached Klopp. Although her appearance was different from his wife’s, her manner of speaking and her personality were remarkably similar to Rayfiel, who had passed away. She had a kind and gentle nature. Klopp seemed to like her, and he occasionally invited her to his house to have tea. She seemed to already know that Klopp had one child, but it didn’t seem to bother her, and they became very intimate.

One day in the estate’s garden, Klopp kissed her hand and gently smiled at her. She became shy but they shared a kiss on the mouth. Aelock observed them from a window in the estate, feeling as if the late Rayfiel had come back to life and was mocking him.

A fiery jealousy rose within Aelock. As the father of their child, he couldn’t tolerate seeing Klopp involved with another omega. However, he couldn’t order someone to get rid of her as he had done before. He didn’t have that power anymore, and more importantly, he didn’t want to resort to such methods anymore.

Instead, Aelock made an effort himself. He pretended to be sick or in distress to keep Klopp by his side, even for just a little while, and prevented him from meeting her.

“The baby isn’t moving.”

Once the lie started, it couldn’t be stopped. Using the excuse of the baby, Klopp would spend the whole day by Aelock’s side, placing his hand on Aelock’s belly to check if the baby was moving or not. Although the baby moved quickly inside the womb, Aelock held onto Klopp’s hand and didn’t let go. He knew the woman was waiting outside for Klopp, but he purposefully didn’t let go of him until the end.

“It hurts. I might have a miscarriage.”

“Let’s call a doctor.”

“The baby needs a father.”

With a faint smile, Aelock made such demands. After Klopp embraced the dying Aelock back to the house, Klopp distanced himself even more. He still had his piercing gaze but no alpha could resist looking at the omega who bore his child. Aelock was confident in that.

Eventually, Klopp sighed tiredly and called a maid to inform the woman that she should return. It was a highly offensive act. He didn’t apologize directly to her, instead, he conveyed it through a maid.

However, Aelock made him do that. It was also Klopp’s fault for hiding Aelock’s pregnancy. Even if it would become a little troublesome, if Klopp had revealed it from the beginning, such a thing wouldn’t have happened. Klopp seemed extremely angry, but he couldn’t do anything with a pregnant omega by his side. Aelock smiled and held Klopp’s hand, placing it on his belly.

The woman’s visits became less frequent, then stopped altogether. Even after such an insult of being sent away, she didn’t cut ties with Klopp immediately, she must have had quite an affection for Klopp.

Indeed, although he had a child, an unmarried aristocrat with wealth and abilities like Klopp was popular everywhere. Aelock was once the object of such admiration, but now he had become Klopp’s omega. He had already conceived their second child, and no matter what happened in the past, it was only right for him to reflect on himself to some extent. Although Klopp was extremely angry, Aelock acted oblivious. It was Klopp who didn’t mention anything about the woman. He looked heartbroken.

During his pregnancy, Aelock would occasionally get a mild heat and he boldly asked Klopp to have sex with him. Klopp strongly hated it, but he couldn’t help but give in to the pregnant Omega’s urgings.

Sometimes, Aelock would play sick and get the doctor to nag Klopp, telling him to be gentle with the pregnant omega. In the end, Klopp lost again. With a stern look, he removed Aelock’s thin nightgown. Aelock smiled as Klopp slowly entered his body.

Soon, a large penis was inside his body. As he only had a small amount of slick, it became extremely painful with each thrust. Aelock whimpered softly, more from agony than pleasure, sweating profusely. Klopp held Aelock’s arms and focused on forcing his legs apart, thrusting into him. It didn’t take long before something hot was released and filled inside Aelock. The pain was worse than when he was in heat, so Aelock couldn’t even have a full erection, but he was still satisfied. Klopp pulled out of Aelock’s body, cursing under his breath.

“Are you satisfied?”

Moreover, Klopp didn’t even remove his clothes, so he could easily leave this spot. Aelock hurriedly grabbed his hand.

“Don’t go.”

“What else do you want now?”

The irritation in his voice extinguished the passion he just had in his chest. But Aelockdidn’t back down, and his tone was calm.

“Sleep next to me.”

Klopp glared at him as if he would kill him and trembled with anger, but in the end, he couldn’t refuse again. Still naked, Aelock nestled into the alpha’s arms and closed his eyes. Who would have thought that pregnancy could be used for this? Giving birth was painful and tough for his body, but if Klopp stayed by his side like this, Aelock thought he could endure giving birth a few more times.

He hoped the second child would be alpha. An omega who gave birth to an alpha would secure a reputation to their name. Even if it would be a little difficult for him, after giving birth to one more child in the future, Klopp would give up and accept the reality. His partner was not the deceased Rayfiel, but Aelock.

It was at the bottom where the ugly, twisted petals had arrogantly held on and fallen to the fierce rain. Trampled countless times by uncaring steps, the petals could no longer maintain their color and blended with the dirt, losing their shape. The place, where the arrogance of beauty should have lasted forever, would be washed away and filled with the scars of rotting petals.

As the pain washed over him, Aelock stood in front of the rose garden once again.

Wearing tattered clothes, Aelock’s skinny body was leaning back at the deserted cabin. When he absentmindedly looked towards the distance, he saw Klopp. And he also saw six angelic children. Aelock watched that scene mesmerized. It was the first time he saw all six children.

Overwhelmed by his emotions, he tried to run towards them, but for some reason, his legs wouldn’t move. So he called out to Klopp. He tried so many times, with all his might, yet no sound came out. He was definitely screaming, but he couldn’t hear anything in his ears. Even when he waved his hands and yelled, Klopp didn’t look back at Aelock. Instead, he looked happily at Rayfiel, who was standing beside him.

So he was alive.

A beautiful person approached the children with a bright smile. The children circled around him, calling out, “Mom! Mom!” Those children… They were Rayfiel’s children. I don’t have any children. It’s strange. Why did I try to run towards them?

Aelock stood there in devastation, and then his legs gave out, causing him to take a step back. Strangely, the legs that couldn’t run suddenly moved. Soon after, he heard a dull sound. Looking down, he saw blood flowing profusely between his legs.

Ah, that’s right. I was on the verge of dying.

He lifted his head and looked at Klopp and the children again. And also at Rayfiel, who was smiling like an angel. Klopp seemed happy. He smiled brightly, like in his faint memory. But strangely, he didn’t feel any jealousy. Only that his heart ached, and something leaked from his eyes. He reached out his hand and found clear moisture.

Tears. Right. Now I know how to cry.

Aelock smiled as tears dripped down his cheeks and chin into his palms. Then he raised his head again, and Klopp was looking at him. While crying and smiling, Aelock realized. Now there was no need for words. He was just smiling, but Klopp looked at Aelock for a short moment, then he turned away and went back to where his wife and children were calling him. Far away. Until he was beyond reach.

In the cabin, the dim darkness crept up from under his feet. He was no longer afraid of the calm darkness, which felt neither cold nor hot. Aelock watched Klopp’s back as he disappeared into the distance and said.

“If it’s not love, then I don’t know what to call this. If there’s a next time… that time, I want to love you.”

The complete darkness rose, engulfing his ankles, knees, thighs, stomach, chest, and finally his neck. The layers wrapped around him like soft flower petals.

Through the final closing cracks of darkness, iridescent fragments scattered away.
