Suppressants

Yin Zhu stared at the look of concern on her father's face and lightly said, " I am just going to work as a maid father, why will I get involved with those young masters? I mean sure they are some big, bad blood suckers but surely they wouldn't attack a maid like me right? I mean how embarrassing it would be for them to go after a maid who doesn't even have an ounce of interest in them?"

" Well, I just hope you are right," said Father Yin as he handed her and Yin Xia a cup of lemon tea each.

" Don't worry father, I will go and discuss it with Madam Huo tomorrow," said Yin Xia as she took a couple of sips of her lemon tea before adding quickly, " I will go and have a conversation with her, I am sure she would understand and let Zhu'er work with me. Madam Huo is a nice woman despite being a bit stern."

Madam Huo was the caretaker of the Situ family, it was said that she used to work as the nanny of the three young masters and when they got old, the three arranged for Madam Huo to work in the mansion. Even though the three young men were as wild as a Pallas shifter on catnip, they were very respectful of Madam Huo who have sort of raised them after the death of Master Situ's first wife.

" Yes, I am sure that Madam Huo would understand as long as nothing happens because even if she is nice, she listens to everything that the three young masters have to say,—-" he paused and took a whiff of the air, it was filled with a sultry scent and if he wasn't a beta and the father of the omega he was sure that he would have gotten crazy because of the scent.

Angry at the lack of Yin Zhu's attention he whirled around and asked in frustration, " Yin Zhu! Don't let me know that you have been skipping on your suppressants!"

Yin Zhu stiffened as she choked on the sip of tea she has just taken, because of what she was she would have to take suppressants along with carrying the omega ring with her when she was nearing her heat cycle.

The only downside of taking suppressants was that it hurt a lot.

" I...I have been taking them—-" she tried to worm her way out of the incoming danger but it was too late Father Yin has already picked up the feather duster and now he was wielding it like a sword. " You damned girl, I am going out of my mind worrying about you and you are actually acting like this? Come here, I will teach you a lesson!"

Yin Zhu immediately placed the cup on the table and then rushed towards Yin Xia, she almost slipped on the floor but somehow stopped herself from falling on the floor. And hid behind her sister who almost got toppled on the floor when Yin Zhu hurled all her weight upon her. " I didn't mean to do it," she said with a pleading voice. " I was …I was just busy thinking about how am I going to work in the Situ family and forgot all about it!"

" If you are going to be this careless then you might as well pack your bags and leave for the eighth cycle, I will tell the master that you found a mate and left!" Father Yin was very angry at his daughter's inability to understand what kind of dangers she might get into if she was to be caught by an alpha.

She was an omega the rarest among the three genders, if she was caught by an alpha then it would be almost impossible for him to rescue her.

Afraid that he will say something hurtful, he picked up his hat and then strode out of the house leaving the two sisters alone.

Only after Father Yin left did Yin Zhu step out from her sister's behind and sulkily said, "It's easy for him to say, he doesn't know how bad it hurts to take the suppressants."

" Father is just worried about you, Zhu'er," said Yin Xia as she helped Yin Zhu onto the bed and then went to look inside the cabinet where she kept Yin Zhu's suppressants. Once she found what she was looking for Yin Xia pulled the book-shaped box out and then flipped it open, inside the book were four bottles of glowing blue needles.

Yin Zhu glanced at the needles and shuddered, she really hated them.

"Just take in a deep breath and hold it in, you won't even know and it will be over," Yin Zhu knew that her sister was lying to her, she knew that suppressants hurt no matter how many deep breaths she took but she too knew that it was important so she drew in a deep breath and pushed her hand away, exposing a side of her glands to sister.

" Get it over with," she said with an air of a sacrificial lamb causing Yin Xia to chuckle. " It won't hurt, I will try my best."

But it did hurt.

Yin Zhu had to grit her teeth as the needle pricked her skin as the blue liquid flowed within her glands, it was as if someone poured hot magma inside her veins, shutting down the sultry scent that was emitting from them.

"Your heat cycle must be almost here," said Yin Xia as she breathed in relief as soon as the scent was gone. " Make sure that you don't miss the suppressants when you are at the Situ mansion or you wouldn't even get a chance to save your life."

" I know it was just a stupid decision anyway," said Yin Zhu as she rubbed her slightly swollen glands. " Who would have thought that the day I decided to skip the suppressants my heat cycle would arrive?"

" Well, you should have known that after all, you are the most unfortunate omega born in this world."

" Damn you, sister!"
