Author's POV

*The Next Day*

Pete was embarrassed to go to the hospital and face Vegas after what happened last night. He hopes Vegas won't be there, but little did he know Vegas was very exited to meet him there.

As soon as Pete entered the hospital, he saw Vegas sitting on the couch. Vegas noticed Pete and he smirked as if he remembers what happened last night at the hotel room. Pete quickly looked away and went to check on Siena. While he was jotting down some information about Siena's health on his notepad, he noticed Siena was constantly looking at a Polaroid on her hand as she rubbed over a familiar face that Pete could recognise easily.

Mom? Pete thought to himself.

"May I ask who's that lady in the photo next to you?" Asked Pete.

" Oh Pete dear, she was my best friends when we were young." Her face dropped. " I don't know what happened to her when I became sick. She was a very kind lady who always motivated through all this, I hope she is happy where she is now," said Siena as a tear dripped down her left cheek.

"By any chance, is her name Jiyana?" Asked Pete a bit surprised at what he heard.

"Yes dear, how do you know her name?" Now it was Siena's turn to ask questions.

" Because Jiyana Phongsakorn is my mother, My full name is Pete Saengtham Phongsakorn." Said Pete.

Siena looked at him with a twisted face as if she heard dog speaking human language.

"You... You are Jiyana's son? Jiyana Phongsakorn? You are Pete Phongsakorn?" She finally said, confusion visible on her face.

"Yes ma'am," confirmed Pete.

While Pete and Siena were having their own conversation, Vegas was as invested in this new discovery about Pete.

"How is Jiyana? Where is she? I never seen her since I don't remember when. I really miss my friend," said Siena eagerly.

"Actually... Mom passed away when I was only 2 years old, since then I've been living with my father and brother," said Pete sounding sad. He always wished he had experience mother's love. He was always left behind by his father and brother. Doing breakfast, lunch and dinner alone by himself in their big mansion. He sometimes wished he wasn't part of all these and wished he had a family which spends more time with him. He was always left alone.

"What,?.. when? How? My dear friend... I always wished I would die before her," broke Siena and started weeping.

"Mom, stop crying please it's not good for your health," noticed Vegas and quickly ran to his mom.

"Yes ma'am it's not good for your health. Please stop crying," Pete started to panic.

"Are you stupid? Look you made my mom cry. Why do you have to reveal something emotional in front of a sick person? I thought you're a doctor and you should know all these," Vegas caressed Siena's back gently.

"I am sorry... I didn't know...," Pete couldn't finish and quickly ran outside the the ward. Sobbing.

Shit. Thought Vegas. He shouldn't have been that harsh.

Soon after Siena went to sleep and now Vegas could finally relax. He has lots of work load lately, and on top of that he has to take care of Macau and his mom. He feels really pressured. He heard his phone ring and he quickly picked it up, worried that it might wake his mom up.

"Yes," answered Vegas.

"Hello Baby, it you are free can you come and pick me up from the Yok's bar please? I am slightly tipsy so I can't drive," Of course it was Tawan. Number one nuisance in Vegas's life. Tawan was the goat for Vegas and he hates him so much. It's not like it's Tawan's fault but he surely is very clingy and an attention seeker, who gets on Vegas' last surviving nerves. His father was enough for that, but he has to deal with this scumbag for his ruthless father.

"Are you with someone?" Asked Vegas.

"Yeah... I am with Ben my friend... Hmm I like you being possessive like th--"

"Than ask Ben to drop you off, I am busy right now," Vegas cuts Tawan and immediately hangs up the phone call after finishing talking.

This asshole. Vegas thought.

Vegas was in the hospital's corridors while talking to Tawan, and he didn't noticed Pete was sitting on an iron bench near him. His eyes were red and he was blowing his nose with a tissues.

"Here you go, this one is much softer than that rough and cheep hospital tissues," Vegas was holding a handkerchief towards Pete.

"No.. thanks, I am fine," said Pete while continue to sob. His nose was crimson red and so were his eyes. Vegas thought he was looking really cute right now.

"That pretty face of yours only looks good with a wide smile not tears," said Vegas while occupying the seat next to Pete.

"Huh? I don't -- know what -- you are -- trying to -- say Khun Vegas," Pete sniffled.

" Your Pheromone, it smells very distressed right now, it may annoy some alphas and omegas around here," explained Vegas.

"I am sorry -- is it that bad? Can you tell I am depressed right now?" Asked Pete.

"Yes it is, so please stop crying.. and it's not your fault anyway, I understand your pain,"

As asshole as he was, Vegas never asked for anyone's consent before touching them. He always assaulted people, mostly omegas especially when he took his rut out on them. However today, as if the rabbits have given birth to chicks, he hesitatedly caressed Pete's back trying to comfort him. An Omega. He never thought he would comfort someone like this besides his brother and mom in his life. He was the one who snatches people's comforts away from them not the other way around.

As he was still consoling Pete, he realised what he was doing. This isn't Vegas, that cruel, horrible and brutal Alpha. Why is he so soft all of a sudden? He needs to maintain his cruel personality. He can't be soft towards anyone. He barely shows his soft side to his mom and Macau. Why is he easily affected by an ordinary omega getting sentimental like this? Is he truly falling for Pete?

Vegas quickly stood up. " Stop crying already," he said trying to sound bit harsh but it still came out soft for Pete. He thought it was his inner Alpha who was melted by the Omega or was it?

He placed the handkerchief he was holding on the seat he was sitting on next to Pete and left the place. He was disappointed in himself. Vegas Kornwit Theerapanyakul should never be naturally soft towards someone. Especially not a stranger omega. Then suddenly he realised what happened last night in the hotel. Did he just broke down in front of someone? Did he just cried in front of someone? How can he? How can he be so weak and pathetic on front of someone? So many questions running inside his mind and the only answer he could think of is... Did he actually started liking Pete? No it can't be. Vegas never thought of mating with someone. The only important people he cares for is his mother and his little brother.

Pete saw there was a handkerchief placed next to him, which was probably Vegas'. He thought Vegas must have forgotten it so he lifted it up deciding that he would give it to him the next day. He saw the handkerchief had Vegas' name embroidered perfectly in the corner. He thought this was probably his mother who sewed his name there since he often sees Siena doing embroidery and knitting on her bed as she gets bored. A mother's love, which he never experienced in his life, he thought and drifted back to crying.
