Chapter 219: 8.26

Altair opened his heavy eyes after so long. He didn't remember how long had he been sleeping, but Altair hadn't been sleeping for two days straight, on top of his dried wounds and also his over exhaustion after beating that Giant Wasp. It was fortunate enough that he could still open his eyes.

His eyes observed around. He was inside a room with modest decoration and a low ceiling. It was pretty weird for him to stay inside this kind of space since he was used to living in luxury with his parents status. 

Altair looked around to find no one until the door was opened from outside, and a man came to him with a food trolley. He had a big, muscular body, but when he pushed the food trolled with one hand, the image looked very cute in Altair's eyes.

General Vega was surprised when he saw Altair finally woke up. His sullen face was brightened once more, but it seemed that General Vega was self-conscious about his expression. Thus, he dimmed his expression and acted serious once more.

"Cadet Altair, I'm glad that you are awake," General Vega said. He pushed the food trolley at the side of the bed and then asked Altair, "Are you alright? You've been unconscious for two days."

"I'm alright," Altair nodded. His eyes didn't leave General Vega, who had a bandage on his left arm and stitches on his collarbone area. His right arm was also bandaged, but not as bad as the left arm. 

Altair gritted his teeth and looked away, but he said, "I'm sorry that I'm unable to save you sooner, General. I should've been able to fight against them quicker and came here earlier to help you."

"No, it's okay…" General Vega shook his head, "But I wonder… what happened between you and Price Rigel." General Vega asked. He was pretty much sure that Rigel had his pheromone, so it would be impossible to ignore him just like that. 

"… I will tell you," Altair took a deep breath pada recalled the day when Prince Rigel tried to seduce him four days ago.

"Our babies will rule the galaxy, you know that, Altair Roderick," Prince Rigel pinched Altair's chin and kissed his lips. 

Altair spat on the ground, and then he glared again at this crazy prince. But Prince Rigel didn't seem to mind at all. In fact, it got him excited. 

Prince Rigel started unbuttoning Altair's shirt one by one until that impressive six-pack was obvious for him to see. Prince Rigel licked his lips and sucked Altair's neck and then nipple.

"Mmmh!" Altair gritted his teeth. He truly hated this, and he felt disgusted with Prince Rigel. The Prince, though, got more excited and unbuttoned his vest as well.

Altair could see the thin, snow-white skin of Prince Rigel, and he hated it. He felt that his eyes had been defiled by such views, 'Ugh, obviously, only General Vega would look better without a shirt.'

Prince Rigel saw obvious displeasure in Altair's eyes as he saw his body. It seemed the stare of disgust triggered Prince Rigel. Prince Rigel felt humiliated because nobody had ever been disgusted after seeing his body.

"Tell me, why do you feel disgusted when you see me? Don't you think that I look sexy?"

"You look like a donkey crap!" Altair insulted harshly. 

"I see, so you want to die that desperately," Prince Rigel smiled, "Well, I cannot kill you, of course. But maybe I should kill General Vega instead?" Prince Rigel took out his phone and dialled a number, "Lieutenant General, go slow down the reinforcement to Sweren. Let them starve, and die being eaten by Zergs.

"YOU DARE!" Altair's voice thundered inside the room. Prince Rigel had a moment of pause before he laughed maniacally.

"AHAHAHAHA! Do you think I can let my competitor staying alive?" Prince Rigel continued giggling, "You see, I will never let someone take what is rightfully mine. You are going to be my husband, my reproducing tool. So it is better to eliminate your fated pair, so you can do it with me."

"Don't worry, the invasion in Sweren is massive this year. Let's see what kind of death he will get, maybe getting mauled by the Giant Zerg? Eaten until his remain becomes an excretion? Or let him be horribly gnawed by the smaller Zergs," Prince Rigel said maliciously.

He walked towards Altair again and whispered, "And the funniest thing is, while he is fighting for your life, you are here with me, having fun sex. How tragic."

Altair couldn't handle the torment anymore, especially after Prince Rigel described many ways his real fated omega would die. 

'I need to save him! I need to save my omega! My General Vega!'

"Eeerrghhh!" Altair started moving on his own. Even after a tight bind from Prince Rigel's pheromones, Altair's willpower was proven to be stronger. He struggled hard until his veins were visible. 

"What a futile resistance," Prince Rigel chuckled and emitted another potent pheromone similar to General Vega's pheromones. But this time, Altair fall to the ground immediately. Altair turned his head to the wall to free himself from the pheromones chain and start banging his head until he was bleeding. 

Prince Rigel gradually realized that Altair's willpower to save General Vega was far bigger than he expected. Although Altair's body was leaning on him, his love and resolve stayed with that man. 

"No, stop this! Noooo!" Prince Rigel yelled. 

"NO!" 

"RARRGHH!" Altair broke free from the pheromone chain with his willpower. He glared at Prince Rigel, who was sitting on the ground, shocked. 

"If I see just one scratch in General Vega's body, then I will never forgive you, you bastard prince," Altair warned, and he left the room.

But before he stepped to the yard with his mech, Prince Rigel shouted at all his hidden royal guards, "Catch Altair Roderick! He has touched me! He has marked me as his pair, and he is trying to run away!"

Suddenly, there were many hidden guards scattered around the school. They surrounded Altair, not giving him permission to use his mech and leave. Altair glared at Prince Rigel, who seemed to be very satisfied as he had a smirk on his face.

Altair cracked his knuckles and took a deep breath, 'This will take time. I will try my best to catch up soon, my omega.'

***

"In the end, I think I've killed five hidden guards because they truly wanted to kill me and injured the rest…" Altair confessed everything. After he fought with those hidden guards, he used his mech and ran away to Sweren to save General Vega. 

Altair glanced at General Vega, who was staring at him, intently, "General, I've become a fugitive. I've killed many guards, and that bastard prince will say to everyone that I've marked him. I've already told my parents when I was on my way here that they should cut the connection with me."

"Because I'm just a fugitive now… I'll try to live in the outskirt of Sweren or something. I don't want to give myself up to the kingdom because that bastard prince will try to take me again."

Altair had a slight hope in his eyes. He knew the chance was close to zero. But deep down, he wished that General Vega would accept him.

"General, since I will run away from the human kingdom, would you like to join me? We will set up a small house together and live together. We will be free from all this mess."

"What do you think?"
