Last Love chapter 87

When it was time for blood drawing, Wen Ke did feel a bit nervous. However, every time he got nervous, Han Jiangque became even more anxious. In front of the doctor, he couldn’t help but lean down and tightly hug Wen Ke.

The male Omega nurse, holding the syringe for blood drawing, chuckled and said to Han Jiangque, “You’re so scared like this. Will you also be afraid to accompany him during childbirth?”

“How, how is that possible?” Han Jiangque immediately replied, but unusually stuttered a bit in front of others.

“That… during childbirth, do Alphas really accompany Omegas?” Wen Ke asked to divert attention, as blood drawing was a bit painful.

He felt a bit concerned, thinking about having to lie on the delivery bed with legs wide open, unable to control the pain, and feeling embarrassed with his Alpha watching. He wondered if other couples and spouses really had Alphas present in the delivery room.

“Of course, they all do,” the nurse said while skillfully applying an adhesive bandage to Wen Ke’s arm after blood drawing. Then he continued, “You might feel awkward thinking about it now, but when the time comes, you’ll be so focused on the pain that you won’t care. Pregnant Omegas heavily rely on their partner’s pheromones during childbirth. If the Alpha is not around, even if the child is born safely, there could be aftereffects.”

“Aftereffects?” Wen Ke raised his eyebrows in confusion.

“Yeah, there could be pheromone deficiency syndrome,” the nurse explained. “It’s like someone who can never drink enough water, and during the heat, they’ll show severe signs of heat, basically feeling unbearable without the Alpha by their side. It’s a rare condition in the Omega category, and there isn’t a good solution yet. Not many people know about it, and even some Omegas are not familiar with it. When others come across it, they might just think this Omega is particularly needy during heat and not take it seriously.”

This information left Wen Ke somewhat contemplative. Although it was a condition in the obstetric field, it was not given much attention. The struggles of being an Omega were everywhere, but because they were so commonplace, they seemed to be taken for granted. People discussed them casually, just saying “oh” as if it were nothing.

As the nurse spoke, he finished his work and went outside to find the doctor, leaving Wen Ke and Han Jiangque in the consultation room awaiting the blood test results.

Han Jiangque sat there, but his mind seemed elsewhere.

Thinking that he might be pondering the encounter with Zhuo Yuan just now, Wen Ke quietly reached out and held his hand. However, seeing that Han Jiangque still showed no response, he mischievously extended his hand, grabbed both ends of the scarf hanging around Han Jiangque’s neck, and swiftly tied a bow.

Han Jiangque, being tied like this, could only look at him somewhat helplessly. “Xiao Ke.”

“What are you thinking?” Wen Ke smiled and asked.

Instead of untying it, Han Jiangque touched the giraffe-patterned scarf, then suddenly leaned his head on Wen Ke’s shoulder.

The tall Alpha, silent, nestled against Wen Ke’s shoulder.

Wen Ke patted Han Jiangque’s head.

After a pause, he whispered, “We will never be apart again, never like it was ten years ago, understand?”

“Yeah,” Han Jiangque replied with a nasal tone.

“You are also my light.” Wen Ke turned his head and kissed the closed eyes of the Alpha on the forehead, then untied the tightly wrapped scarf from Han Jiangque’s neck, holding it in his hands.

“Yeah.”

The blood test report came out quickly. After the doctor responsible for Wen Ke, Dr. Jiang entered the room, he immediately informed them that the babies had passed the screening for Down syndrome. He also brought another piece of good news.

“Wen Ke, the detailed prenatal examination report is also available now, and there’s good news — your pheromone level is not just stabilized at D level. According to our observations, it seems there’s a possibility of further improvement, and you might reach C level before childbirth. This speed is truly amazing. I’ve never seen anything like it, and our department is also surprised. However, it’s a relief. The higher your pheromone level, the less risk and pain you’ll face during childbirth.”

“Really?” Wen Ke was pleasantly surprised. Recently, he had often felt that his pheromone scent was stronger, and Han Jiangque had mentioned it a couple of times. But he didn’t expect it to be rapidly increasing.

“Yes. Such rapid improvement usually happens when an Omega is in a very happy and healthy state, both physically and mentally,” the doctor nodded. He continued, “I must commend your Alpha. Controlling pheromones without marking you requires him to manage his pheromones gently to nourish and protect you. This creates a good environment for you.”

Han Jiangque, who had been scolded by doctors during Wen Ke’s previous hospital visits, was unexpectedly praised this time. He felt a bit awkward.

Wen Ke looked at Han Jiangque, his eyes showing a hint of sweetness and melancholy. He was indeed well protected.

Alcohol-based Alpha pheromones were the strongest, naturally attracting Omegas and possessing high aggressiveness. This followed the most common pattern, where good and bad came together, with advantages and disadvantages.

But in their relationship of almost half a year, Han Jiangque had never once lost his temper with him, nor had he used his pheromones to suppress him even once. Even in times of quarrel and distress, Han Jiangque would quietly go out to have a drink, and he would worryingly return home when Wen Ke called.

Under the intense pheromones, there could still be an incredibly gentle soul.

Because of this tenderness, he liked to protect and build a nest, using pheromones to envelop his Omega in a tender and safe cocoon.

This was why he hated Zhuo Yuan so much because the fundamental nature in Zhuo Yuan’s soul was destruction.

Suddenly, Wen Ke seemed to understand Han Jiangque a bit more and understood Alphas a bit more.

After finishing the serious discussions, just before leaving, Wen Ke suddenly felt a bit embarrassed and stopped. He asked in a very soft voice, “Dr. Jiang, I have another question…”

“What question?”

“Just, I’m already three months pregnant… Can we, can we have intimate relations now?” Wen Ke hesitated a bit in the middle.

“Of course, you can,” Dr. Jiang quickly replied. Then he turned to look at Han Jiangque on the side and added, “But remember not to be too rough, take it slow.”

The young Alpha’s face turned red at lightning speed, and he nodded slightly, saying, “Got it, thank you, doctor.”

The doctor smiled, shook his head, and continued writing the report. After writing a few lines, he looked thoughtfully at the open door as the two left.

This pair he was responsible for was quite special. Wen Ke’s pheromone level had initially been very low, while Han Jiangque’s pheromone level was unexpectedly high. Dr. Jiang had initially thought they were not marking due to Wen Ke not wanting to be dominated by an overly dominant Alpha too early. However, after several meetings, he realized that amidst the expected dominance of Alpha and submission of Omega, there were many subtle details hinting at something different.

In his many years of experience, he had often been asked about the safety of intercourse, but it was always Alphas asking. This was perhaps a conventional understanding that in relationships, Alphas were more active, eager, and dared to express their desires.

However, this time was different. Although the Omega was also shy, he was the only pregnant Omega who took the initiative to ask about this matter.

And once the question was asked, the stern-looking tall Alpha next to him instantly blushed but also actively looked over.

The doctor immediately understood. In fact, the Alpha was also very restrained, but he handed the initiative of this matter to the Omega—

This was indeed a very special couple.

…

During these three months of pregnancy, they were both holding back.

As soon as they got home, Wen Ke couldn’t restrain his excitement and pounced on Han Jiangque on the sofa. The Alpha instantly became tense, holding onto Wen Ke’s waist cautiously, “Slow down, Little giraffe, slow down—”

Wen Ke bit Han Jiangque’s ear and whispered with a breath, “Han Xiaoque, change your WeChat profile picture back for me.”

Han Jiangque hesitated a bit and said, “Change, change what?”

“You don’t think I didn’t notice, do you?” Wen Ke smiled, his eyes curved.

This guy changes his WeChat profile picture when he’s angry, as if changing a QQ signature in elementary school to attract attention. It’s as childish and cliché as it gets.

But that night had almost scared him, it seemed that when it came to love, maturity didn’t matter. Old-fashioned and childish methods could be effective.

Later, Wen Ke pretended not to know the whole situation. These past few days, he never mentioned it. Han Jiangque secretly changed to two unrelated and unimportant avatars, but he never changed it back to the original one. He had never been so obsessed with changing his profile picture before.

Wen Ke naturally understood what was going on. Han Jiangque was trying to cover up his actions, and at the same time, he couldn’t find a way out.

So Wen Ke decided not to tease Han Jiangque anymore.

He wanted to open his arms wide for Han Jiangque, letting his little wolf land safely in his embrace.

Wen Ke lifted Han Jiangque’s face and kissed him affectionately. While kissing, he coquettishly said, “That day we argued, you changed your profile picture from a kissing giraffe to boxing gloves— change it back.”

Han Jiangque was still trying to act tough, “I changed it randomly, and besides, your profile picture is just a casually taken landscape photo, nothing special.”

“How about now, take a look?”

Han Jiangque paused for a moment, then quickly reacted. He flipped over to grab his phone, swiftly opened WeChat, found Wen Ke, and then clicked on the avatar to refresh.

Wen Ke’s profile picture —

It was a photo of a giraffe calf smiling awkwardly at the camera.
