As the day approached for Kwon Taejung to return to work and resume full-time office hours, his concerns deepened. The thought of being separated from Yigyeom during the day was too worrying for him to bear.
In fact, he honestly didn’t want to return to work because he didn’t like the idea of being apart. Until recently, he had done everything to return to the company, but now that he could, he found himself hesitating to go back. Life was truly unpredictable, as he had just realized.
Nevertheless, for the sake of their future together with Yigyeom, Kwon Taejung knew very well that he had to put aside his regrets and go back to work. While he had enough wealth to make Yigyeom happy without working, he didn’t want to show Yigyeom and Piyak a leisurely and carefree lifestyle. He had become someone with his own family that he needed to take responsibility for now.
Looking down at the peacefully sleeping Yigyeom, Kwon Taejung, who suddenly remembered that he now had a child, pressed down the surging emotions in his heart with a tight grip on his hand. He thought it would be best to quickly prepare for the wedding and hold the ceremony.
Already practically married, and though the wedding was mostly a formality, he still wanted to make it known to everyone in a grand way. Now that he was truly becoming Yigyeom’s, he wanted to announce it to the world and leave a record of the moment when he became Yigyeom’s eternity. Kwon Taejung, unable to contain his excitement just from thinking about it, searched for wedding information on his phone.
Since they were doing it, he wanted to make the day sparkle and shine brightly. He considered renting the biggest and most expensive hotel hall, decorating the entire venue with beautiful flowers that suited Yigyeom, and creating a day where Yigyeom would be happy amid the congratulations of many people. Yigyeom deserved to be celebrated. He wanted to see Yigyeom, who would be more beautiful than anything else, in a very pretty place.
“Um… Chief…”
“Oh, our Yigyeom woke up? Let me see. My pretty lover.”
Kwon Taejung, who tilted his head down over Yigyeom’s face, still not fully awake, showered him with kisses all over. Seeing Yigyeom smiling so beautifully, Kwon Taejung thought that they should get married as soon as possible.
“Yigyeom, we need to start preparing for our wedding now. What kind of wedding would you like?”
At the mention of the word “wedding,” Yigyeom blinked, sitting up and looking at Kwon Taejung. Apart from briefly working as a wedding guest part-timer, he had never seriously thought about marriage or weddings.
“I would like it in the direction that Chief prefers. I don’t know much about such things…”
“I’d love to go big. Our hotel wedding hall is the most famous in the country. There’s the Grand Ballroom, which is indoors, and the Greenery Garden, which is an outdoor wedding venue. Which one do you think would be better?”
“Since it’s too hot in the summer… wouldn’t it be better to have it indoors?”
“Oh, right. It is. Doing it outdoors in the fall would also be beautiful, but let’s not wait until then. I want to get married right away, Yigyeom.”
While he knew that getting married right away was impossible, for some reason, Kwon Taejung felt that if it were him, he could make it happen. Yigyeom, looking at Kwon Taejung, seemed to feel that he wanted to marry her so badly, and she gently stroked his handsome face.
When he looked at that face, the timing of the wedding seemed irrelevant, whether it was today or tomorrow. Touching Yigyeom with a gentle hand, Kwon Taejung thought that if it was what he wanted, he would do anything for it.
“No, I can’t wait even one more day. How about doing it today?”

“I’m okay with having it right here and now…”
“I also want to do that, but I don’t want to casually go through the wedding, a once-in-a-lifetime event. I want to make you truly happy, my love. I want to create a day that you, our Yigyeom, will never forget, filled with congratulations and beauty everywhere you look.”
Holding Yigyeom tightly, who embraced Kwon Taejung, unable to give him a strong hug due to fear of hurting him, Yigyeom pressed his face against his neck and closed his eyes. Kwon Taejung knew. Just being able to be together like this was more than enough to make him genuinely happy.
Grateful for his desire to make him even happier after fulfilling all his happiness, Yigyeom nodded in silence instead of saying he was okay. Anything to let Kwon Taejung have it his way.
“In any form… as long as I’m with Chief, I’ll definitely be happy.”
“Are you happy now?”
“Yes, I’m happy. Being with Chief… every moment, continuously, I become happier. I’ll continue to be in the future.”
“Ah… What should I do? Yigyeom, you’re really too handsome. I love you.”
“I love you too, Chief.”
Seeing Kwon Taejung’s face, as if about to cry from the words of love, surprised Yigyeom quickly hugged him tightly, patting his back. Kwon Taejung, who held Yigyeom like that, kissed him all over his ears and neck.
“Something’s weird lately. I’ve never felt like this before, but whenever I see you, I feel like crying. Is it because I’m too happy…?”
“I often feel that way too when I think of Chief… Even if I see you sleeping when I wake up, or if you just smile at me, it feels like I might cry.”
“Maybe it’s because of love. If you love someone, it’s like this. I didn’t know. How do I go to work when everyone is in tears? It hurts to think that I won’t see our Yigyeom during the day.”
In Kwon Taejung’s arms, with the pleasant scent of pheromones wafting through, Yigyeom pressed his face against him, holding onto his waist even more tightly, and closed his eyes. Even the thought of not seeing him during the day made him tear up.
“If you miss me, you can call anytime. Okay? Work is important, but you are the most important to me.”
“Yes… I’ll do that.”
“Yeah, handsome. Kiss.”
“Kiss.”
Slightly pulling away, they exchanged warm kisses a few times with their eyes locked, and then their warm bodies pressed together without a gap. Kwon Taejung inhaled deeply, enjoying the warm pheromone scent emanating from Yigyeom. In his mind, a grand wedding ceremony was already unfolding.
* * *
Even though there was no physical pain, Yigyeom felt anxious every time he went to the center. He looked at the slightly larger Piyak on the ultrasound and then glanced at Kwon Taejung.
“Chief, Piyak has grown even more.”
“Yeah, probably because our Yigyeom is so handsome.”
Thinking briefly about what being handsome had to do with the baby growing well, Cho Hyunjoon, who had been looking at Kwon Taejung with a look of disdain, put on a smile again, as if nothing had happened.
“Now that there’s no problem at all, you don’t have to worry. The heartbeat has become stronger than last time.”
After hearing that there was no problem, Yigyeom sighed with relief and sat up on the ultrasound bed. He had been worried about any potential issues due to not eating well because of morning sickness, but thankfully, everything seemed fine.
“Since the hormone test also showed stability, and our Piyak is doing well, you can engage in activities like strolling or other outdoor activities now.”
“Oh… Thank you.”
“Oh, and here’s one more important piece of advice, especially for the guardian.”
Looking at Kwon Taejung with eyes that seemed to melt at the sight of his lover, Cho Hyunjoon, like a compassionate doctor, smiled as he spoke.
“Now that you’re allowed to have a physical relationship, don’t do it too often. And when you do, avoid spending too much time or changing too many positions.”
Looking at Cho Hyunjoon speaking like an informative broadcast, Yigyeom felt somewhat embarrassed and avoided eye contact, while Kwon Taejung nodded firmly, maintaining eye contact until the end.
“Right now, our Piyak is still small, so the changes may not be very noticeable externally, but as he grows, it might become more apparent. By the way, unlike Beta, Omega’s outward changes might not be as significant. Still, as long as our Piyak is growing well inside, you shouldn’t put too much pressure on the belly as time goes by.”
Yigyeom, with his head bowed, managed to answer in a small voice, and Kwon Taejung nodded in agreement while Cho Hyunjoon gently patted Yigyeom’s back.
“Got it.”
“When the pheromones of each other combine, it provides significant stability to the child and also serves as an act that lets our dads know how much they are loved. So, as long as it’s not too excessive, feel free to do it. Oh, and you must use condoms.”
“Yes, Doctor.”
Kwon Taejung responded with a grin, and Yigyeom, still feeling embarrassed, couldn’t lift his head. Kwon Taejung comfortingly patted his back.
“Oh, I have one more question… Lately, things I didn’t like much before taste delicious, and things I used to enjoy feel a bit off. Is that possible?”
“It’s not common, but there are such cases. It’s a state of bonding, and since the pheromones are deeply connected, you might be feeling Yigyeom’s emotions directly. If Yigyeom stabilizes, you’ll also stabilize. Enjoy it because it’s the result of love. Now, if you have any more questions, feel free to ask.”
Having addressed all his concerns, Kwon Taejung looked at Yigyeom. Yigyeom, with no more questions, politely bid farewell, and together with Kwon Taejung, they left the director’s office.
“I feel bad because of me; Chief can’t eat well. What should we do…?”
“Why blame Yigyeom for that? It’s because we love each other so much. I’m so happy. And I feel sorry that I can’t share more.”
“Cancel, cancel. Definitely cancel.”
Smiling at Kwon Taejung’s playful response, Yigyeom patted his back, and they descended to the parking lot together.
“Yigyeom, how about going to the hotel?”
“The hotel?”
“Yeah. I thought it would be nice to see the wedding venue together.”
“Can we go now?”
“Yeah, I checked, and they said there’s no wedding today because they’re inspecting something. The inspection will be done by two, so let’s have lunch and then go.”
Yigyeom nodded approvingly at the excited Kwon Taejung, who was talking about the wedding venue. It seemed like their emotions were truly synchronized. Just seeing how happy Kwon Taejung looked made Yigyeom feel elated as well.
Hoping that the love and excitement he is feeling right now will be conveyed to Kwon Taejung, Yigyeom burst into a broad smile.
