My Marriage To A Mute Alpha

Xiang thought that time stopped for a moment. Both of them looked into each other’s eyes with deep desperation. What Xiang didn’t want to happen, happened at last. He knew that nothing can be undone at this point and he can only reveal what his real intentions are. “I at least have to try! You never know what can happen” he thought. He slowly removed his slim hands from Suho’s grip and used both of them to hold his face. Suho flinched for a second. Xiang’s mind was blank, but he knew what must be done- reveal his feelings. Xiang moved his face close. With their breathing being mixed and seeing each other on each other’s eyes, it was what Xiang wished for. With his soft sweet lips, Xiang kissed slightly on Suho’s. He didn’t do anything more than that, as what he did now was itself like a dream. He took his hands off Suho’s face and backed himself and said “You might have found out about my feelings on the phone. But let me tell you once more. I love you Suho. I loved you all this time and I still love you. When I first heard about you, I found you interesting. But as time went on, I knew that it wasn’t just because of interest but something more than that. I even planned to make you fall in love with me. Isn’t that funny. I deceived everyone and myself. But I don’t regret it. The times that I thought about you, it was indeed painful. But it was new because I never put in the effort to contain feelings in my heart for people other than my family. I was shocked by myself that I did that. But I want to say one thing. The person who gets to stay by your side and receive your love will be very lucky. I know that you will treasure them with all your might. Don’t worry. You will find that person soon. I just wish that it could be me. Don’t think that I am selfish by asking this again but…”, “Do I still have a chance to make you mine?”

Suho without saying anything patted on the seat of the driver.

“Yes, sir” said the driver, and soon, he parked the car. He then opened the door and left.

“Suho, why did he leave?”

Without saying anything, he took a picture out of his pocket and showed it to Xiang. It was a childhood picture of Suho standing beside a woman and a little girl.

“Who is ….”

Before Xiang could finish that sentence, Suho took out his pad and started writing on it, which said “That is me with my mother and my little sister. It was taken when I was in 5th grade. I lost both of them in a road accident. I guess your parents didn’t tell you about this. She is my mother. My one and only. My father wasn’t home most of the time and she and my sister were my only company. After she died, my father remarried. The people who I held dearly left my side all at once. Even now, the concern and affection my current mother shows me are all just on the outside. It’s all acting. I just went with the flow on her acting. But it was then that you suddenly appeared in my life. You changed my life. You’re smile, the way you talk to me; how I made you blush- I felt real feelings bestowed upon me after a long time. You deserve much better. I fear that my bad luck will drive you away. I hope you understand.”

In a split of a second, Xiang pounced on Suho and said as fast as lightning – “I don’t know if you know. But my biological parents abandoned me when I was at the same age. The parents that I have now, adopted me and gave me a life and a meaning to live. You’re not the only one. And about me leaving you, it won’t happen in a million years. Think of me as an angel sent by my mother in law and sister in law. And about your current mother acting, I guessed all of it from the day I was admitted to the hospital and I also have a lot to talk to you about your current mother”.

“But the most important thing now … Please take the risk! I guarantee you that you won’t regret it. I will love you with all my heart. I am not saying that we must get married right away. (But we can if you want. I am okay with it * in his head*). We can start by taking baby steps by dating. I will cook you all your favorite dishes, lend you my shoulder when you need it and be your backbone and help you kick the ass of that lady. What do you say?”. At this point, Xiang was sitting on Suho’s lap with his arms around his neck without even realizing it.

Suho looked at Xiang for a while. “So…um…what do you say?” repeated Xiang while lifting his eyebrows.

Suho then laughed with a smile that Xiang never seen before. It was enough to warm him up.

“Really! Can I trust you?” said Suho while smirking, with his hands around Xiang’s slim h.i.p.s.

“Yes! Of course, you can trust me,” he said, proud of himself. It was not until now that he realized that something seemed off.

Xiang gasped and said “You…u…you… can talk!!!!!?”
