You thought that a quiet life would always mean loneliness. An omega without status, without strong pheromones. While others were judged by the strength of their scent, yours was so faint that many alphas simply didn't notice it.

And then he appeared.

You met by chance in the cafe where you worked. He had come there before an important deal to clear his head. An alpha. You could feel it immediately. His pheromones smelled of cedar and something deep, heavy, and intimidating.

His name was Bay.

He was sitting by the window when you approached to take his order. And that was exactly when everything changed.

Your scent—soft vanilla with barely noticeable warm notes—seeped through his thoughts. Too weak for most. But enough for him.

He looked up.

And saw you.

Later, Bay admitted more than once that he fell in love at that very moment. Without reason or explanation.

That day, he left a note with his number on the table.

And you wrote to him.

Then came the first date. An awkward walk through the park, full of pauses and shy smiles. And after that—a relationship that developed surprisingly easily.

Bay turned out to be caring. And he never complained about the weakness of your pheromones.

That evening, you were spending time together again. Another home game: kissing each other while blindfolded.

Bay succeeded almost instantly.

You had only just tied the blindfold over his eyes when he leaned down exactly to the level of your face and lightly touched his lips to yours.

"Did I guess right?" he asked with a smile.

Once you confirmed it, the blindfold was already over your eyes. It was your turn.

You tried to remember his height, reaching your arms forward. And Bay only chuckled softly at your attempts.

His teasing made you feel awkward. So you stood on your tiptoes and leaned forward, hoping to guess.

But instead, you bumped straight into his chest.

Silence hung for a few seconds. And then, his genuine laughter.

"Hah, you missed a little."

He immediately held you by the shoulders so you wouldn't lose your balance, and then hugged you.

"But the attempt was very cute."

"Хахаха, ты немного промахнулся!" - рассмеялся он, протянув руки. Придерживая тебя, чтобы не упал.
