Bondage and Marriage - 7

Due to the persistent low pressure system caused by Ian, the people around him have been practically crawling on the ground these days. Everyone knows well that if they rub the young chairman the wrong way, they won’t end up in a good situation. However, there was a poor soul who had to stick by Ian’s side all day long, whose mood was foul, due to their job.

“Daniel.”

“Yes, Chairman.”

As Ian wiggled his fingers, Daniel rushed over immediately. Ever since they signed a large-scale contract with Frost, not only Ian’s mood has become fouler, but the life of his secretary Daniel has also gradually become more and more difficult. It was already hard enough to cater to Ian’s usually picky demands, but today the difficulty level was extreme. There were more than a few employees who had shed tears because of Ian today.

As Daniel approached, Ian, without even glancing at him, gave an order.

“There’s a shop called [Tear]. Go buy something from there.”

“Eh…? What kind of item are you referring to?”

Daniel asked very cautiously, but the usually not-so-friendly Ian simply ignored the question. What, a shop called [Tear]? And what exactly did he want him to buy from there? Even though he grumbled inwardly, Daniel never dared to voice those thoughts out loud. He would have to scour Ian’s credit card statement to find out where this [Tear] shop is and see if there are any reserved items there. From the moment he was hired, he had always felt that Ian treated him not as a secretary, but almost like a servant.

“And also, prepare the schedule for my wedding next month.”

“Huh??”

Daniel’s eyes widened at Ian’s next instruction. Ian’s wedding? And next month? When a chairman gets married, the wedding can never be just a personal affair. Daniel could already see a mountain of tasks piling up before him – from responding to congratulatory messages and gifts, to arranging the wedding venue and selecting the guests… Just thinking about organizing the schedule made him feel dizzy. A wedding?

“C-Chairman… You’re joking, right?”

“Do I look like I’m joking to you? You don’t seem to have a single clue about your boss’s mood.”

An unnecessary scolding came his way, along with a terrifying glare that made Daniel shrink. Defeated, Daniel meekly replied “Yes, understood… I will carry out your instructions,” and retreated. What else could he do? It was his own fault for applying to become the chairman’s secretary in the first place. If only he hadn’t just bought that new car on a 3-year installment plan…

Even after wringing his secretary dry, Ian’s mood did not improve. He scowled as he glanced at the clock, realizing he had a dinner appointment with that damn Frost family tonight. Ian hated having to cater to others’ whims for non-business related gatherings, so he was thoroughly displeased about tonight’s plans. However, he thought, he would make Noah Frost pay dearly for this, as much as his current foul mood.

In truth, Ian’s plan to harass and drive out Noah Frost after his marriage was no different from simply wanting to pick a fight with the Frost family. But the reason Ian was doing this was simply because he was the type who could not even bring himself to say he was fine with it, even as an empty phrase. After all, he had been steadily preparing to break free from the Frost’s financial influence, so whether he got married or not, the company would take a hit. (The option of quietly getting married without taking a hit was not even a consideration for the ill-tempered Ian.) Thus, his intention was nothing more than to give the Frost family, especially Noah, a hard time.

Since he was going to pick a fight anyway, Ian thought he shouldn’t do it half-heartedly. He believed he had to properly make the Frost family his enemies, without any complications later on. Ian’s way of thinking was quite different from that of ordinary people. He had already prepared ways to deal with Taner, who he knew would be furiously lashing out to try to kill him before long. He was about to reap the results of a business project he had meticulously planned over a long time. After that, even if the Frosts tried to recoup their investment, the company would never be shaken again.

Moreover, just what grounds could Taner Frost even use to criticize him? As long as he didn’t beat the other party to a pulp like a case of domestic violence, society still did not interfere with how an alpha treated their omega. Even if an alpha embraced their omega in a somewhat perverse and rough manner, it was still not grounds for divorce. Perhaps if the omega refused the alpha’s bed, that could be a reason for divorce…

In any case, he shouldn’t reveal this to Taner yet, so Ian had arrived early at the appointed place and was waiting. He just had to endure until the wedding. After arriving at the hotel early and entering the room, Ian was gazing out the window at the night view, imagining the happy moment in the near future when he would give Taner his comeuppance.

The sound of a knock interrupted his thoughts. Ian had deliberately waited for the two of them to arrive together. He knew well how to behave in a way that would seem attractive to the other party. If he wanted to make a fool out of Taner, he first had to seduce Noah Frost and get him to marry him. Ian greeted the two people who entered the room with an elegant smile.

“Welcome, I am Ian Miller.”

“I’m Noah Frost. It’s a pleasure to meet you.”

As they exchanged greetings, Ian discreetly looked Noah Frost up and down, evaluating him. Watching Noah’s bright smile, Ian’s eyes darkened.

‘So the rumors are true.’

Despite Noah Frost not appearing much in social circles, he was a well-known figure to the point that no one was unfamiliar with him. As the youngest son raised almost like a precious ornamental flower in a greenhouse by the entire Frost family… Being an omega with a high probability of bearing alpha children, on top of his good looks and the Frost family background, many people were eager to establish a connection with Noah Frost.

It was true that even the picky and demanding Ian found Noah Frost’s appearance quite pleasant. Not only did Noah have a radiant blond hair, but his strikingly blue eyes and an extremely innocent-looking face were also very impressive. Ian usually preferred glamorous, busty female omegas, but a face like Noah’s might have captivated him once or twice. Of course, now that he knew Noah was Taner’s son, that was no longer a possibility.

While Noah’s outward appearance seemed meek and gentle, well… Having experienced backstabbing people with kind faces since childhood through his relatives, Ian was not entirely convinced. He couldn’t be sure of Noah’s true personality, but if the younger man did have a temper, tormenting him could be quite entertaining.

Throughout the meal, Ian closely observed Taner’s attitude towards his youngest son. Watching Taner’s behavior, he found it quite puzzling. Despite Noah being a male omega, Taner was treating him as if he were a daughter, rather than a son. As someone who hired talent without discrimination, whether they were alpha, omega, or beta, as long as they were capable (or as others would put it, ruthlessly exploited them equally), Ian could not understand Taner’s actions. Surely he wasn’t going to coddle Noah like a delicate young lady. He absolutely detested male omegas who behaved like women.

Regardless of his true feelings, Ian continued to smile sweetly at Taner and Noah. He was very curious to see how this innocent young man, who could only imagine being embraced tenderly by an alpha in the bedroom next month, would react.

***

The dinner ended in a very warm and amicable atmosphere. Since Ian had proposed marriage and Noah had agreed, Taner seemed to think the two had fallen for each other at first sight and was in an exceptionally good mood as he returned home. In this highly favorable environment, the wedding date was set right then – for early next month. Taner proudly told his two sons, who had returned home from work, that he knew the two would like each other.

“Noah, do you really like that person? Are you being sincere? Or are you just going along with it because of Father’s wishes?”

Hearing the news of the set wedding date, the two older brothers were stunned and immediately went to Noah’s room. Benjamin confronted his relatively more docile younger brother, saying it was unheard of to set a wedding date after just meeting. Noah, who had been spacing out thinking about what new products [Tear] might have, belatedly responded to Benjamin’s question.

“Sorry, can you repeat that? I was lost in thought and didn’t hear properly.”

Seeing the youngest, who had always politely declined countless confessions from people of various races and genders, now wearing an utterly dazed expression, William raised his eyebrows, and Benjamin was stunned. “Did I raise my brother too innocently? How could this situation, straight out of a fairy tale, happen where he falls for a random man at first sight?” Benjamin ruffled his hair in frustration.

“What on earth does that guy have that you like?”

Well… That sinister grin as he said he would torment me to tears…? But Noah couldn’t honestly answer that, so he rolled his blue eyes evasively. “Umm… He’s really handsome, and his manners are good too.”

“Noah, appearance isn’t everything. Who knows what that bastard’s personality is like!”

“But… I actually liked his personality too.”

Even at a glance, Ian’s personality seemed to be quite fantastic. In fact, Noah thought marrying someone like Ian Miller would be better than marrying a genuinely kind and good-natured person who truly loved him. Noah wasn’t that old yet, but he had already spent half his life enjoying being tormented by someone (he even subconsciously liked being pinched by a jealous classmate back in elementary school when he was popular). And he wanted to continue living that way.

Noah knew that there weren’t that many people who would play with him roughly enough to satisfy him. But if he married a completely normal person, he wouldn’t be able to have affairs, and there’s no guarantee they would torment him either. Noah had no desire to hurt others because of his own sexual preferences.

So someone like Ian Miller, who openly said he would torment him, was quite close to Noah’s ideal type. He was planning to enjoy the married life for as long as possible, but separately, Noah had already made plans after divorcing Ian. After divorcing Ian, he would apologize tearfully to his father, claiming he had no desire to remarry due to the wounds from the divorce, and then use that as an excuse to finally achieve the independence he had always dreamed of.

Then the dazzling sex life awaits! I can boldly buy all kinds of bizarre and wicked adult toys without worrying about the eyes of employees or family! Noah’s cheeks flushed with happiness at the bright future that lay before him. William and Benjamin were utterly bewildered, having never seen Noah so infatuated (?) with someone before. Instead of pleading for help to avoid getting married, their brother seemed to have fallen in love…

“Noah, Benjamin is right. Deciding on marriage after just one meeting is foolish.”

“No, we agreed to meet a few more times before the wedding.”

William actively tried to dissuade Noah, but to no avail. Noah knew that if he couldn’t have this marriage, he would regret it for a long time. I wonder how the first wedding night will be? I love rape play so much! Noah’s eyes sparkled as he thought about it, unaware that if Taner or his brothers found out, they would be aghast.
