Quick Transmigration: Homewrecker System! [BL]

Chapter 206 - 8.13

General Vega was currently walking around the palace courtyard to avoid the rambunctious chatter in the party. It was cold outside, and it was a peaceful night for him to have a walk. 

But the supposedly peaceful night was disturbed by the presence of this alpha dog who kept on following him with his imaginary tail wagging behind him, "G—General, please listen to me once! I really did not cheat on you!"

General Vega sighed. He finally turned his back to face Altair and said, "Relax, I do not blame you at all. You are free to choose your mate, Cadet Altair. You are a young Alpha. You should find a good omega."

"No! I don't want to find an omega!" Altair gritted his teeth, "I just… I just…" 

General Vega, who had always been strict and stern-faced, finally rolled his eyes in annoyance, "Cadet Altair, you should be attending the ball right now. Your date must have been waiting for you. Be more responsible as an Alpha."

Altair felt conflicted because, honestly, he didn't like that man at all. The one that he developed a crush with was this guy, General Vega Satellarnus.

They were ten years apart, and General Vega didn't seem interested in him, but it was like a magnet for Altair. He felt like he was drowning inside this whirlpool that slowly getting bigger and sucked him deep.

It made him both uncomfortable and curious about his own feeling. How could he fall in love with a male beta that didn't emit pheromones at all? 

Altair braced himself as he wanted to ask something to the General, "General, do you really have no intention to date anyone younger than you?"

"Younger than me? Hm…" General Vega seemed to think for a while, "I don't really mind. In fact, young people have great strength to help in the military."

[And great vitality as well, ehehehe.]

            "But I do not have the time to search for a soulmate…" General Vega said. He eyed Altair, who seemed to be in deep thought and continued, "Why are you asking that anyway? You know that my preference and personal feelings are private matters, right?"

"It's just that… I want to know your preference, General…" 

"I do not like a brash, annoying, loud, and arrogant kid," General Vega said blatantly in front of Altair, which shot his heart down. Altair lowered his head because he was nervous, but he would not give up simply because he was not General Vega's type. Altair intended to try his best to court as an alpha. What Alpha surrendered quickly?

[Pupa: Ding! Fatemeter increases to 55%.]

"If you want to know my most important preference, then my preference is protecting my country… with the one I love. So we may live together as heroes."

[Pupa: Ding! Breakmeter increases to 30%.]

Altair finally raised his head after General Vega said, "So if you get a boyfriend, you want him to be strong, right?"

"Indeed, he or she needs to be strong because the war is not pretty at all," General Vega said. 

Feeling that he finally had a chance, Altair took a deep breath and braced himself, "I've meant to say this for a while, General Vega… I lov—"

"Ah, am I interrupting anything here?" a soft voice interrupted Altair's confession and broke the atmosphere. General Vega turned his head and saw Prince Rigel with his gorgeous androgynous face smiled at them.

General Vega kneeled immediately and greeted him, "Your Highness Prince Rigel, this humble one apologize for not noticing you sooner."

Prince Rigel smiled in response and replied, "No, it's okay. I was just taking some breather because my debut ball is so crowded."

Prince Rigel's eyes glinted towards Altair, who refused to bow down to him. He asked, "And you are Altair Roderick, the young master of Roderick duchy, right?"

Altair was in a horrible mood after his confession was interrupted by this stupid prince, but he knew that he couldn't say anything rude towards the prince, so he replied with a tone neither humble nor arrogant, "Yes, your highness."

Prince Rigel was engrossed in this guy who didn't seem to be interested in him. He was known to be the beauty of humanity. His appearance was that of an androgynous god, but this guy didn't seem to be interested. In fact, he seemed to be irritated.

Prince Rigel had a slight grin on him, and he asked again, "Did I interrupt something between General Vega and Young Master Altair?"

"Well, obvious—" Altair wanted to complain, but General Vega interrupted him all the sudden. 

"Not at all, Your highness. We are just discussing war strategy."

Altair glared at General Vega, who was submissive towards this prince. He knew that Prince Rigel was the future queen, but he was yet to be crowned!

Besides, Altair was really annoyed right now. Just when he thought he could deliver this feeling to his General…

"Then, is it alright if I join the conversation? I am bored and in need of a companion," Prince Rigel requested.

"I don't think—" 

"Of course, Your Highness," General Vega said as he took Prince Rigel's soft hand and escorted him around the garden. 

"Thank you, General," Prince Rigel said. He had a small smirk when Altair glared at their hands that got connected, "Young Master Altair, you should follow us. I know you've wanted to spend time with General Vega, right?"

"…"

In the end, the beautiful moment between General Vega and Altair was destroyed when Prince Rigel barged in. Altair was in a sour mood the whole time while General Vega carefully escorted Prince Rigel around the garden. It should have been his time with the General, and he would have been successfully confessed, if it weren't for this meddling prince.

"General, you've done a great deed in the name of humanity. Do you want a reward?" Prince Rigel asked. He seemed to enjoy tormenting Altair, and he said, "I also heard that Young Master Altair helped our General to kill the Zergs in Lebth Province. Do you also need anything? I know that you are a handsome young alpha. Of course, you need beautiful omega. General Vega, don't you think that Young Master Altair needs a good omega for himself?"

"Indeed, Your Highness," General Vega agreed, "Young Master Altair is a strong and handsome alpha. I have been suggesting for him to find a good omega. But he seems to be reluctant to find one."

"General!" Altair felt discouraged at General's word. He was seriously hoping that the General would say he needed more training. But no, General Vega straight up telling him to find an omega mate.

[Pupa: Alert! Fatemeter decreases to 40%.]

Prince Rigel noticed the dynamic between this couple, and he had a funny idea in his mind, "Young Master Altair, why don't you find an omega mate? You know that there are plenty of omegas wanting to be your partner. Are you currently in love with someone?"

Altair didn't have an ounce of goodwill towards this Prince who interrupted him. However, he still had an obligation to honour the prince, so he nodded and replied, "I just haven't found anyone suitable yet, Your Highness."
