Middle Child Syndrome - Chapter 205

Chapter 205: Ch 205: The mission starts
“Hey, wait! Listen to me about this drug a bit! I am sure your partner would enjoy it a lot…. Tsk, she went away without listening to what I had to say. Oh well, if she doesn’t want it, then it is okay. You all would like to see the effect of this medicine, right?”

Suzie had a feeling that she should decline and leave now. But her curiosity kept her bound to her seat.

Everyone looked at her and looked back at the person making the offer with an awkward expression.

Finally, the omega that led Suzie inside the club spoke up.

“Don’t even try to play a trick on us. I know how your brain operates. This is likely a heat inducer, right? Do you want to get into trouble or something?”

Suzie’s first instinct was to try to throw the bottle away. She did not want a heat inducer near her.

Luckily, the vial she threw fell on the sofa and did not break. It caused everyone else (including the man who gave her this vial) to breathe in relief.

“Suzie, you need to be careful. This is powerful stuff. One whiff and any omega will fall into heat, including you. So be careful and don’t open the vial.”

“And my dear baby, I did not bring these vials here to charm some omegas and get easy lays. This is a tool to get rid of our political enemies. Don’t you think I am so considerate now?”

The alpha asked in a gleeful voice. But his girlfriend did not look happy or relieved by his decision.

“Do what you want to. But if this comes back to bite us, I will report you to the police. Do you understand me?”

With a curious look, Suzie looked at the vial she had thrown away.

She was not someone who kept such dangerous substances on her person, but she had a feeling that she should this time.

‘I don’t have a lot of enemies, but if I did, this would be a hard way to ruin them. I am sure Grandmother would have a way to make use of this drug as well. I should keep it with me for now.’

Suzie discreetly pocketed the vial she had thrown away before standing up and making her way out.

“I need to head back now. I must reach the library before Mark returns to pick me up. I will keep your secret for now and not tell anyone about this vial. You should consider yourself lucky that I am being so graceful toward you.”

Suzie’s voice had dominance laced all over it. She held her head high, behaving like she was exiting a royal ceremony, not a strip club.

Her friends flashed her a charming smile and waved her bye. However, their expressions of happiness and friendship only lasted as long as Suzie was with them.

Once she was gone, everyone made an annoyed face.

“Tsk, that bitch is annoying. The only reason we tolerate her is because of her family condition. I wish she would fall off her high horses so that I can get rid of her ego.”

The alpha, who had been ignored by Suzie all the time, cursed her openly.

No one stopped him since everyone thought the same way about her.

They did not like Suzie but needed her name and association to prosper their business. But that did not mean that they had to like Suzie as well.

…

“Just for the record, it is a stupid plan. If Emily asks, tell her I tried to stop you from doing something this reckless, alright?”

Rocxx looked uncomfortable as he watched Rika prepare for her mission that night.

The intel Zhu Li had gotten told them where the people who smuggled the drug were gathering to distribute the samples.

Rika’s task was to mask herself as an omega and sneak inside that club. She had even gotten artificial pheromones (she did not know why Zhu Li had them on hand and how he made them smell so natural) that would aid her in passing as an omega.

Years of being ID checked had prepared Rika to clutch her fake ID and keep it on hand. She was sure that she would not be caught.

But Rocxx’s nervousness would surely get them caught by the post-checker if he continued to be this nervous.

“Just relax for now, Rocxx. Everything would be alright. However, you will get us caught if you continue to behave like this.”

Rika whispered into Rocxx’s ear, and he immediately made a worried and annoyed face. The next second, Rocxx masked his face to make it look more neutral and less apprehensive.

As they waited for their turn to be ID checked, Rika noticed that the line to get inside was much longer than usual.

There were a lot more people out and about, but Rika did not know if it was related to the drug or not.

“Keep your head down and act like you don’t care. At this rate, you will not pass as an omega.”

Rocxx advised Rika, but she ignored his advice.

She would not act like Suzie and pretend to be a snob. Rika had standards that she was going to follow.

“Next person.”

The bouncer called, and Rika immediately stepped before him with Rocxx by her side.

The bouncer looked at her before he sniffed the air, and his brows went up. Rika tensed up, wondering if she had been caught or not by the bouncer.

However, it was a false alarm because the bouncer only held the tape open for her to enter.

“You have a weird smell, kid. It’s not wrong, but it’s not good either. I wish you good luck in finding a partner there tonight. But hey, if you keep getting disappointed, find me! I’ll show you a good time.”

The bouncer promised and made a vulgar gesture toward Rika to indicate what he meant by his words.

It immediately made Rika uncomfortable, but she did not know how to answer the bouncer. She had never been in this situation before.
