A Lingering Scent
Taehyung sat on the couch, legs curled up comfortably as he absentmindedly traced patterns on the fabric of his sweater
The living room was dimly lit, the only sound being the faint ticking of the wall clock
His body still ached from the fever he had the night before, but at least he could finally breathe for a moment
Just as his eyes started to flutter shut, the sound of the front door unlocking made him straighten up instinctively
Sehun stepped inside, his shoes clicking against the floor, his presence immediately darkening the air around him
Taehyung didn't move, but his fingers curled slightly, bracing himself
Sehun smirked at the sight
SEHUN
(mocking, yet pleased) Being a good boy today, I see
Taehyung remained silent, his lips pressing into a thin line
SEHUN
(chuckling) Since I'm in a good mood... you can sit on the couch today. Beside me
Taehyung hesitated but obeyed, lowering himself onto the couch as Sehun sat down next to him
The proximity made his skin crawl, but he remained still, knowing better than to protest
Sehun's arm lazily draped around his waist, pulling him closer
His touch was possessive, suffocating
Resting his chin on Taehyung's shoulder, his breath ghosted over his neck
SEHUN
(casually, with a smirk) I finally got what I wanted
Taehyung remained quiet, his gaze fixed on the floor
SEHUN
(pressing, his tone playful) Won't you congratulate me?
Taehyung inhaled sharply before forcing the words out
TAEHYUNG
(softly, reluctant) Congratulations
But just as he spoke, something unusual hit his senses
Buried beneath Sehun's overpowering, toxic cologne was something...
familiar, something warm. Something that once brought him comfort
His breath caught in his throat
TAEHYUNG
(whispering, startled) Where... did you go?
Sehun chuckled, clearly amused by the sudden question
SEHUN
(leaning back slightly, smug) Someone's getting a little too comfortable with me
Taehyung swallowed, his fingers clenching his pants
TAEHYUNG
(hesitant, but firmer this time) Whom did you meet?
Sehun's expression darkened ever so slightly
With an annoyed sigh, he rolled his eyes
SEHUN
(dismissive) It's none of your business.
He stood up, shrugging off his blazer
Taehyung followed sehun, standing up as well
TAEHYUNG
(a little more desperate, softer) Please...
That one word made Sehun pause.
He turned around, his sharp eyes locking onto Taehyung's
Without warning, he stepped forward, gripping Taehyung's chin between his fingers
SEHUN
(low, threatening) Where I go. Whom I meet. What I do...
SEHUN
(his grip tightens slightly) ...is none of your concern
SEHUN
You should just focus on being an obedient omega
Releasing his hold, he pushed Taehyung's chin away and turned toward the staircase
Just as he was about to ascend, he paused
SEHUN
(nonchalant, but firm) We're having guests over tomorrow
SEHUN
Make sure everything is clean
TAEHYUNG
(stressed, voice slightly shaky) How am I supposed to clean everything in one night?
Sehun barely glanced back
SEHUN
(smirking, coldly amused) That's your problem
With that, he disappeared upstairs, leaving Taehyung standing alone in the dimly lit living room
His shoulders sagged as he sank back onto the couch, pressing a hand against his chest
His heart was racing-not from fear, but from something else
The one that once made him feel safe
