Fear

 

Finally, the day arrived when Ren was to have dinner with Mikado.

 

From the morning, he couldn't seem to shake the feeling of restlessness. Annoyed at himself for feeling so flustered over something as simple as a meal, Ren threw himself into his work with even more focus than usual.

 

Noticing Ren's sharp tone despite his clear distraction, Aoi worked faster than ever, helping them finish the day's tasks with ease.

 

"Are you sure it's alright for me to leave now?"

 

"Yes, go ahead. Tell Aoi the same."

 

"I see. And where is Aoi?"

 

"He's holed up in the meeting room with Asakura, studying while sorting through the documents."

 

"Understood. I'll let him know."

 

"Thanks."

 

"...Oh, and tonight, you have that dinner with Mr. Mikado, don't you?"

 

"Y-yeah. It's not like we'll be discussing anything important, so don't worry about it. Go home early for once so you can spend more time with your baby."

 

"Thank you. I'll take my leave, then."

 

Seiba was married to a Beta woman and already had two children. He was a competent Beta, emotionally and mentally stable. There was a solid, comforting reliability about the man who provided for his wife and young children. Perhaps it was that stability that made Ren trust him so much.

 

Leaning back in his high-backed chair, Ren gazed down at the cityscape spread out beneath him. It was about twenty minutes until his scheduled dinner with Mikado. Feeling his lips dry from the nerves, he sipped some water from the pitcher on the desk and sighed deeply.

 

—I've never been this nervous in my life.

 

He had no idea what expression to wear when he would walk into the restaurant, nor what words to say first. Standing up, Ren paced to the window, checking his watch nervously. Just twenty minutes left. It was time to gather his resolve and head downstairs.

 

Just then, the door creaked open. Ren turned, thinking it might be Seiba or Aoi returning, without much thought.

 

But standing in the doorway, closing the door behind him, was Masachika Kunishiro. As always, his lips curled in a faint, mocking smile, his snake-like eyes fixed on Ren. A chill ran down Ren's spine, and he instinctively took a small step back.

 

"...What do you want?"

 

"Oh, I've heard some curious rumors recently. I thought I'd ask you directly about them, Mr. Ren."

 

"..."

 

Masachika, speaking with exaggerated politeness, slowly approached Ren.

 

To hide his unease, Ren sighed as if in annoyance. He slid his hands into his pockets and walked around the desk, glaring coolly at Masachika, who had settled onto the sofa with his legs crossed.

 

"What rumors?"

 

"Surely you should have an idea, Mr. Ren?"

 

"None whatsoever. I'm afraid I have plans now, so if it's important, let's talk tomorrow."

 

With a firm tone, Ren picked up the jacket he had left on the desk. As he attempted to pass behind Masachika to leave the office, he was suddenly grabbed and yanked back roughly. Ren turned, glaring in shock at Masachika.

 

"Let go."

 

"Now, now... No need to be so cold. After all, who's been watching this company for you until now?"

 

"What of it? I've paid you more than enough for your services."

 

"It's not about the money, is it? You know that."

 

"Ouch..."

 

Masachika's grip on Ren's arm tightened with brutal force, causing Ren to grimace. Smiling darkly, Masachika pulled Ren closer.

 

"Is it true you're planning to dismiss me?"

 

"...What?"

 

"Are you brothers planning to cast me aside, after all I've done for this company? What are you scheming? Are you so eager to monopolize the Kunishiro family's reputation for yourselves?"

 

"I don't know what you're talking about. It's just a rumor... Now, let go!"

 

"Where there's smoke, there's fire. You're plotting behind my back, aren't you? Planning to oust me at the next board meeting?"

 

"Ugh...!"

 

Before Ren knew it, he had been shoved onto the sofa. Masachika loomed over him, his eyes gleaming viciously as he pinned Ren's shoulders to the couch with a violent force.

 

The talk of firing Masachika was just idle gossip, spread by a faction that supported Ren and Aoi, the legitimate heirs of the Kunishiro family line. Since Aoi had started appearing at the company, the once dormant faction had begun to stir. Ren had often warned them to refrain from making such statements in public, but...

 

Pushing through the fear and disgust that froze his body, Ren glared up at Masachika with defiance.

 

"I have no such plans. Before you act out like this, maybe you should make sure the rumors are true and find out where they came from."

 

"…Is that so?"

 

Masachika's thin lips curled into a sneer. His grip on Ren's shoulders tightened painfully, and Ren clenched his teeth, struggling to suppress the pain, revulsion, and chilling fear threatening to consume him.

 

"I told you to let go...!! If you think you can get away with this—"

 

"Do you think you'll get away with talking like that to me in this situation?"

 

"What do you mean?"

 

"You sent your secretaries home so early. How careless of you... Or maybe, you were waiting for me?"

 

"What are you talking about..."

 

"You're so stubborn, Ren."

 

A large hand gently touched Ren's cheek. Then, without warning, a thick thumb forcibly pried its way into Ren's mouth.

 

"Mmph...!"

 

"Suck on it... Yes, that's a good boy."

 

The finger, stained with the smell of cigarettes that Ren loathed, twisted inside his mouth, teasing his tongue. He tried desperately to turn his face away, but Masachika's iron grip on his jaw prevented any escape. Ren's eyes widened as he pressed his hands against Masachika, trying to push him off, but his strength was nothing compared to the Alpha.

 

Pinned down with his knees forced apart and his body immobilized by a strength he couldn't resist, Ren felt his breath begin to falter. Masachika gazed down at Ren, his eyes alight with sadistic glee, before reaching down to stroke Ren's crotch through his slacks.

 

"Ah…!! S-stop...!"

 

"Ahh… You're beautiful. I've wanted to see this expression on your face for so long."

 

"Stop... it…!!"

 

"Hah... You're an Omega, Ren. There's no way you could ever resist an Alpha like me."

 

"…!"

 

—It can't be…

 

Seeing Ren's sudden stillness, Masachika grinned triumphantly. Loosening his grip on Ren's neck, he violently yanked off Ren's tie and tore open his shirt, sending buttons flying. Ren's pale skin was exposed to the cool air, and Masachika's predatory gaze became even more intense. Slowly, he licked his fingers, slick with Ren's saliva, savoring the taste.

 

"You're deliciously sweet… You know, don't you? As an Omega, you've been tempting me all along, but your words just don't match your true desires."

 

"I haven't been tempting you...! And I'm an Alpha! There's no way I could be an Omega!!"

 

"Then there's no problem if I take you here, is there? If we're both Alphas, there's no risk of pregnancy, after all."

 

"Don't be ridiculous...!!"

 

Masachika's intent was crystal clear—he truly meant to defile Ren. His swollen crotch, his predatory eyes glowing with lust, all betrayed the depth of his depravity.

 

—No... I refuse...!! I can't let this filthy man...!!

 

"Even if you did get pregnant, it would be fine, wouldn't it? You carrying my child... It would be the purest successor, more perfect than anyone else. Isn't that a beautiful idea?"

 

"Ugh...!! Let go!! Let go of me!!"

 

"Struggling so hard... How cute. I've always thought you were adorable, even as a child, Ren..."

 

Masachika's tongue traced Ren's neck, a sticky, rough sensation that made Ren let out a choked cry. His skin crawled with revulsion, his whole body trembling uncontrollably. Tears welled in his eyes, threatening to spill over despite his attempts to hold them back.

 

Desperately twisting his body, Ren tried to inhale enough air to scream for help, but Masachika's large hand clamped over his mouth, muffling his cries.

 

"Even if you really are an Alpha, it wouldn't matter to me. How about becoming my lover instead? You've never had time to find a partner, right? I could be the one to soothe your loneliness. What do you think? Having me by your side would be rather convenient for you, don't you agree?"

 

"Ah, no... stop...!!"

 

With both hands restrained, Ren's body was violated further as Masachika groped him, his hands rubbing his crotch with obscene movements while his tongue traced Ren's neck and ears. The overwhelming disgust finally broke through, and tears began to stream down Ren's face.

 

He felt nauseous. The fear was so intense, it made him feel like he was losing consciousness. The overpowering pheromones pouring from Masachika's body made Ren feel as if his insides were being turned to mush—it was unbearable.

 

—No! No...!!

 

"I've always wanted to do this to you... for so long. Heh... There's no one left on this floor today. I'll take my time and enjoy you, Ren."

 

"No... no!!!"

 

Just as Ren's mind was teetering on the edge of despair, the weight pressing on his body was suddenly ripped away.

 

"…Ah…"

 

Through the haze of tears clouding his vision, Ren saw the furious face of Mikado, who had grabbed Masachika by the collar, his features twisted with rage.
