Didn't Have Anyone to Blame

* * *

The next day, Fyre woke up early as usual. It had been like that recently because he usually sneaks out of the Alpha's room before anyone wakes up so that no one would see him. Of course, today wasn't different. There was nothing wrong with him staying in the same bed with Tian Zi because they are now engaged but he was still embarrassed about being found out so he might do this for a while before he becomes more comfortable.

Fyre sat up a little to look at the peacefully sleeping Alpha next to him before he smiled, lightly pinching his nose.

"Good morning, birthday boy," Fyre whispered before laying back comfortably closer to his side. And as if awake, as soon as he felt the Omega's body, Tian Zi's arm unconscious dragged Fyre closer to him making Fyre giggle. He found the small action cute and planned to sleep a little more seeing that the sun hasn't fully come down yet when he heard the Alpha groan and later woke up.

"Are you leaving already?" Tian Zi asked. He sounded like a child who was about to be abandoned as he immediately sat up rubbing his eyes. Seeing this, Fyre didn't have the heart to just leave. After all, today was the Alpha's birthday, he didn't want him to start the day feeling down but of course, he also couldn't resist trying to tease him.

"Yeah, it's the next day already. I have to sneak out before everyone wakes up," Fyre said, chuckling when he saw how Tian Zi's already solemn face dropped even more. In the end, Fyre couldn't help it and finally burst into laughter and later softly giggled. If he hadn't just woken up and still had his morning breath, he would have pulled the Alpha into a kiss. Fyre secretly chewed on his lips, it's a way for him to keep his smiles from further showing up. Recently he had been smiling a lot and so he unconsciously developed a habit of constantly biting his lips. He couldn't stop it and it just naturally happened. Sometimes, he hated it because it looked like he was asking for a kiss... well sometimes he was, but most of the time not.

"They wouldn't mind anyway. I'm telling you, they'd like it more if they see us together," Tian Zi explained like a hundred times already and he was right. Fyre had no idea how his words were right. Although he hated the main reason why his family preferred him to stay in the same bed as Fyre, it's not like he was against it now either.

"And I'm telling you I'm not used to it yet."

"Fine! Go ahead then..." Hearing his lover's reply Tian Zi pouted and decided he would act upset hoping that the Omega would pity him and stay longer with him. Unfortunately, Fyre had another plan as he got off of the bed.

"I'm going out for a walk though, it would be nice if I have a strong Alpha that would protect me this time," Fyre chanted which immediately made Tian Zi twitch and without a second, jumped off of the bed as if he did not just act pitiful just now.

"Let me just wash my face and mouth," Tian Zi said and quickly rushed to the bathroom. He briefly disappeared before his head popped out at the doorway and looked at his lover.

"Wait for me, okay?"

"I'll wait for you outside," Fyre just chuckled. Tian Zi pouted again but in the end, he nodded and went back to quickly wash up. Fyre also did the same after he left Tian Zi's room and later instead of him waiting for the Alpha, it was Tian Zi who waited for him outside with already a thick jacket and a bonnet on. Fyre couldn't help but smile as he approached him especially when he saw Tian Zi's face brightened at the sight of him.

"What took you so long--" Tian Zi asked but his words were cut off by Fyre when he suddenly pulled the Alpha by his collar and initiated a kiss. It caught Tian Zi by surprise and he froze very briefly before he wrapped his arms around Fyre's narrow waist lifting half of his weight as they continued to kiss so passionately. And the moment their lips separated, Fyre buried his face against his lover's neck blushing shyly.

"Happy birthday, Zi, my mate, my love, and soon-to-be husband. I am very thankful that you were born," Fyre whispered, pulling away to caress the Alpha's cold cheeks. Tian Zi was dumbfounded at first but he later smiled, a slight pinkish tint made its way on the apples of his cheeks and tip of his nose as he embarrassingly covered his face with his palms in defeat.

"That's so unfair. If you were gonna give me a kiss and say something like that as your birthday gift, then we shouldn't have left the room," Tian Zi complained in frustration because right now, he was already half-hard just from that kiss and Fyre being so adorable was not helping him calm down. Thankfully, the sea breeze was cold and kinda helped him hide his bulge even if it was little. Truthfully, he was never the horny type but maybe because he had bonded with Fyre that he's feeling so much more affection than a person normally would. He wasn't really sure because this was the first time that it had happened to him. Maybe he'd have to ask his brothers about it with their wives if they felt the same but then again he didn't really share his embarrassing dilemma.

"Exactly the reason why I waited until we were out..." Fyre chuckled, oblivious of the Alpha's current dilemma before he grabbed his hand intertwining their fingers, and started walking since they indeed went out to go for a walk.

"This place is so pretty, I wanted to enjoy it with you on your birthday. We can't just stay in bed on a beautiful day like this," Fyre chatted, still pulling Tian Zi who remained silent, wondering how he was going to calm himself. He could still feel the warm and tingling sensation from their kiss right now and his mind had gone wild that he was having trouble walking with his erection. Luckily, it was still dim out and no one was around.

"Did you already see the pool they had here? We saw it yesterday and it was so beautiful. I heard from the staff that the sunset was perfect from there. Let's go there and watch the sunset," Fyre continued and although he was struggling internally and physically, Tian Zi still nodded attentively and was just happy that the Omega was enjoying the place.

Arriving at the pool area, Fyre gasped in shock. The view in the morning was already breathtaking but with the lights on, the pool looked even more majestic that he suddenly wanted to swim.

"Zi, let's swim..." Fyre suggested, even though the breeze was cold. Meanwhile, hearing the Omega's invitation, Tian Zi looked at the pool and the small ripples it had on top due to the air and he nodded. If they're in the water it probably won't be that cold and most of all he thought of something that might work.

Happily smiling hearing the Alpha's reply, Fyre had no idea that he would soon be under Tian Zi's mercy. He quickly stripped his clothes leaving only his underwear before he happily jumped into the water which was not too deep—as expected at the spot he jumped on—but as the water hit his skin, he wasn't able to hold back and cursed loudly.

"Fuck!! That's hella cold!" Fyre whined while Tian Zi just looked at his energetic lover and chuckled also in the middle of stripping his clothes.

"Urg! Hurry up, slowpoke!" Fyre whined again, throwing water to Tian Zi which he didn't really mind. He was silent all this time but he will definitely have his revenge for that kiss.

"I know. I know. I'll be right there," Tian Zi assured, and indeed very soon he was climbing down the pool stairs and later approached Fyre. Naturally, Fyre wrapped his legs around Tian Zi with ease and giggled thinking he had the upper hand but before he knew it, the Alpha circled his arms around his body preventing him from escaping and later pulling him into a kiss while dragging him to the deeper area in the pool.

Fyre really didn't mind the kiss even though it was a little salty due to the seawater being used in the pool because as much as he didn't want to admit it, he really liked kissing but he soon abruptly pulled away with his eyes wide gawking at his lover.

"W-What the fuck a-are you doing?!" Fyre asked in disbelief, struggling as he prevented the Alpha from taking his pants off. Unfortunately, although he knew how to swim away, he desperately clung to Tian Zi, noticing that his feet couldn't touch the floor as if he had forgotten how to swim.

"We won't be needing this for now," Tian Zi whispered, letting the small piece of clothing float away from them before Fyre could grab it. Instantly feeling uncomfortable being in the pool naked, Fyre was on the verge of tears. Even though there were no people around, he was afraid that someone would catch them doing something so indecent.

"Y-You told me we weren't going to have sex!" Fyre accused.

"Well, that was before you kissed me and gave me a boner. I had to walk here trying to hide my aching bulge," Tian Zi informed as he slid his rough hands against Fyre's smooth and silky thighs.

"What!? H-How the fuck was that my f-fault? It's not me who couldn't control my urges, you fucking virgin! Premature ejaculator! Minuteman!" Fyre complained and grabbed Tian Zi's hair, pulling it. Meanwhile, hearing the Omega's insults, a couple of nerves popped inside his head and without warning, he fished out his hard shaft and easily slipped inside Fyre who was conveniently very close to him, making him squeak in surprise letting go of his hair.

"Yahhh! Y-You fucker! You really put it in! T-Take it out! Take it out now!"

"I'm smaller than I normally am right now but I'm going to make you regret ever calling me a p-premature ejaculator..." Tian Zi gritted his teeth, stuttering the last two words before he pushed himself deeper causing Fyre to shut his mouth and gasped burying his nails against the Alpha's skin. His heart began to take a faster pace as he didn't know what to do. Obviously, he had never done this before and he was positive Tian Zi was the same.

"Ahh~ t-the water~ Hmm... Zi~" Fyre cried in panic, feeling the seawater being pumped inside him. He absolutely didn't like the feeling of it as it stings a little.

"*sniffle* I-It hurts... *sniffle* I-I'm scared, Zi~*sniffle*" Fyre continued to cry as he pleaded. Some people might like this kind of stuff but not him. It didn't feel good at all plus the Alpha was mad at him. Thankfully, after hearing his cries, Tian Zi halted and woke up from his insanity.

"Cling on to me..." Tian Zi ordered in his dominant tone which Fyre did without delay before he walked to the shallow area carrying him. Their connection didn't separate but at least now they're out of the water as now it only reached his thighs. Tian Zi put Fyre at the side of the pull and wiped his tears. The cold air that now touched their skin made Fyre tremble but he continued to cry holding on to Tian Zi's arms.

"I'm sorry... I-I didn't mean to scare you," Tian Zi muttered, feeling regretful. He was irritated but he shouldn't have forced himself to the Omega. He knew the things he had seen in pornography were exaggerated but he still couldn't hold back his curiosity. Now, he had made Fyre experience something so awful.

"Bastard, take it out already," Fyre whined and following his command, Tian Zi quickly slipped out, tucking it in.

"I'm sorry..." He conveyed again, giving Fyre his pants which he took just now. Fyre angrily grabbed his pants and quickly wore them before hastily getting off of the water and running towards his clothes which he then silently wore and later left without saying a word. At the same time, watching his lover disappear, Tian Zi sighed in frustration. Well, he didn't have anyone to blame but himself.

"Good job, Mo Tian Zi!" He mocked himself before he also went on his way to follow Fyre.
