You're telling me that an alpha and an omega in heat - in order to form a bond....the omega needs to give consent?!? When they're both rutting?!? I don't you think you understand that ONCE Ian's pheromones activated Noah's omega traits, because that's what ALPHAs DURING RUTS DO?!?. Hello??? which opened his senses to Ian's pheromones and that sent Noah into heat, Noah had ALSO RELEASED PHEROMONES OF HIS OWN, AS AN OMEGA THAT HAD BEEN induced into in heat, because he's in close enough PROXIMITY to be AFFECTED. This is a NATURAL REACTION between alphas and omegas. If you WERE to compare the actions of the two based on lucidity and willingness then you can say that in the opening scenes, the alpha DID INDEED assaulted Noah, because it was intentional. (Their second time having sex as alphas and omegas.)
However, neither of them were lucid during the MATING sex. Omegas' pheromones affects alphas. Much the SAME way the alphas pheromones do (to omegas). It's called a chemical mating dance. Much like dances of animals during their mating rituals. Their MUTUAL scents then affected EACH OTHER during the rut. It wasn't like Ian had just assaulted him. His animalist instincts, which is what a RUT is, is to mate. In the end the WHOLE PURPOSE of an alpha and an omega is to produce children. So nature brought this into play. THE WHOLE PREMISE of the is story is nicely laid out in the first few chapters, where Ian had taken advantage of his bond with Noah to force him to concede that he indeed is Ian's mated pair by forcing him into heat, which can ONLY BE DONE BY THE OMEGA'S BONDED ALPHA. In the first (few) chapters Ian is explaining that they, as alphas and omegas are subject to heats and ruts.
They become complete animals and aren't capable of giving consent and asking for consent. Just read the chapters over and DON'T insert your bias into Ian. It literally laid out the foundation for their relationship and predicament. IF Ian had retained his mental (and physical) capacity he WOULDN'T have sex with Noah in the first place. And when Noah had gone to his place, neither knew that he could be turned, and much faded alpha, high on sex HORMONES, is only wanting to mate. He doesn't know what's UP. Their previous sexual encounters had only been as beta and alpha. So as betas don't get affected by pheromones, being in the presence of an ALPHA in heat would not have mattered. But they did turn and had sex. Ian marked Noah against his own will - Ian DID NOT WANT to mark AN OMEGA AT ALL. If you keep saying that he forced him sexually and marked him against his will, then the EXACT SAME THING can be said FOR IAN. It's not like dude HAD wanted to mark him. You keep forgetting that he didn't even want a relationship with Anyone, let alone a mate-bond, and to impregnate/have a child with an omega. Get over yourselves.
Ian and Noah had only been in their (early twenties at the time). Neither had wanted kids. But the kid came. They were college students.....you think IAN would have wanted kids then?!? Did he look like he had WANTED to mark Noah?!? Wtf are you guys even ON?!?
Noah only used to excuse of returning the inhibitor, which didn't even get used, what's the while purpose of trekking ALL the way to his house, even though he could have EASILY given it back to him (assuming it was his) after class....
Noah just shows up suddenly, it's not LIKE Ian had expected him to come, after not having ANY CONTACT ADTER HAVING DISSOLVED FWB RELATIONSHIP....
(╯°Д °)╯╧╧ Says the biggest dummy of them all who screamed Rape, rape rape from the hilltops at every shadow you came across. You some how convinced YOURSELF thst Noah was a rapist intentionally living to enact revenge on Ian for being rejected. Then you proceeded to TRY and brainwash everyone else that Noah was the assailant when in fact we found it's the other way around. Get over yourself Ian fkn raped and S.A'd Noah. And came and did it AGAIN in a rational mind! He MAYBE could have gotten a pass for the first time but not the second. It appears that is just Ian's personality. NOW that the shoe is on the other foot you want to gaslight everyone with these BS comments cause you feeling but hurt over your messed up thinking.
Do A/O's have animal instincts? YES. BUT depending on the imaginations of authors that will dictate to what degree of coherency each ABO storyline will have. In THIS case, in the FIRST incident Ian was out of his mind succumbing to those instincts and he straight SNATCHED Noah up into his house, stripped off Noah's clothing even while Noah continually protested, had his way with Noah (r@ped), AND to add insult to injury, MARKED Noah without permission, and per the author, saturated Noah with his pheromones causing Noah to transform into an omega. (AGAIN sounds like rape to me but I digress), Noah got freaked out from the events of that evening, (who wouldn't after going through something so traumatic), causing Noah to runaway and hide. REGARDLESS if Noah was able to cum or not feeling short spurts of euphoria due to being affected by the pheromones does NOT take away the fact that Noah got straight snatched and he wasn't ready for it. As far as I'm concerned Ian is responsible for his own side effects and need to figure that sh*t out his self. But that is just me and my personal opinion. AND I will add that instead of aborting that beautiful baby Noah chose to keep and give that baby all the love in the world. Ian has his nerve kidnapping that baby（/TДT)/ . Noah's fear of Ian should give some indication of his past fears/trauma.
So, HOW is that judging when those are the FACTS of what the author themselves depicted in this manwha?!? Your quick to make misjudgements but have the audacity to TRY to point your finger and insult others for making truthful arguments?!? You need to stop embarrassing yourself and chill. Especially after I proved you wrong in the firsttime. You did enough screaming Rape rape rape all over the place. (Rolling my eyes at the audacity)
And ANYONE'S! survival instinct would be to hide and avoid their rapist at all cost omegaverse or not! I don't care what NO ONE says! Confusion my aunt sally (╯°Д °)╯
BTW @lia you did a wonderful job! Don't allow mindless trolls to rain on your parade. Stay vigilant in your rationalizations. (⌒▽⌒)
I will add I can't wait for the next episode ε=ε=(ノ≧∇≦)ノ

Wow! Now you have developed the disease of selective memory smh. You jumped on almost everyone comment stating --> he raped and marked him without his permission and got pregnant ranaway and hid the child （/TДT)/ you need to go back through the comments because I definitely made a post based on your rape rants. But whatever. Play the amnesia card if you like but the post don't lie. Bottom line is and I stand by this Ian needs to grow some humility and first needs to apologize and suffer for all the trauma he gave Noah and beg to be included in that child's life. Noah don't owe him sh*t but a punch in the mouth. Maybe if he came at Noah he could have gotten some understanding of that night events point blank! He hurt Noah and continues to do so. I have NO sympathy for him and his side effects of being marked.
So NOW you decide you want to understand the functions of A/O after you were called out. Smh. I said what I said. And your basically saying that forced sex is okay as long as it can be explained/justified. Again your trying to give your version of an explanation of A/O however you need to understand that only the author of a storyline dictates the nature of their omegaverse. Not you trying to clean up your past rape rants to appear as if none of that transpired. I ALREADY stated that Ian could possibly get a pass because he WAS incoherent the FIRST time. But make no mistake he was the aggressor. He kicked off Noah's pheromones and marked him ultimately ending in pregnancy. Also considering everything, Ian has no right forcing his pheromones on Noah while he was holding his child and KIDNAPPING them then RAPING Noah a second time based on an assumption. Which Ian was in his right state of mind at THAT time. So what's your excuse now?!?
Why do you keep justifying Ian when he obviously has some sh*t he needs to figure out and atone for. Alpha or no alpha. Ian fk'd up. Period!
The grown up way would have been having a discussion instead playing the blame game like some spoiled ass rich boy. But w/e. Get yo life! Obviously you must think there is nothing wrong with Ian and him being an alpha justifies the bs and his aggressive actions towards Noah and the child. His actions shows he gives nf about that baby. And his interests only align with a family heir. So stop with the trying to give bs explanations on someone else manwha. Read it for what it is instead of looking for innocent characters to exploit. (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
My initial posts assumed he had snuck in KNOWING he had already turned. Which had been only based on info UP TO CH. 7.
My subsequent posts have seen otherwise. I HAD SAID that if he hadn't been dumb enough to show up at Ian's house, he wouldn't have been attacked by an alpha in RUT. The FIRST reason for his being dumb is this: Ian's and Noah had no longer ANY relationships after they dissolved their FWB relationship, so WHAT COULD they have TALKED about?!? Secondly, I said it was dumb of him to show up because EVERYONE was accusing Ian of assaulting Noah when CLEARLY Ian had NOT been in his right mind. IF you're gonna BLAME Ian, then WHY aren't you ALSO BLAMING Noah?!? The man foolish ly showed up at his EX's house!!! Unannounced. Don't play the "he texted Ian" card because Ian was already deeply in rut by that time. How can you blame AN ALPHA IN RUT who's RUTTING INSIDE HIS OWN HOUSE until some random rang his doorbell?!? You ACT AS IF IAN HAD WANTED TO MARK NOAH and to TIE NOAH TO HIMSELF. H-i-l-a-r-o-u-s. Noah fucking developed into an OMEGA ON-THE-SPOT because he happened to be in the IMMEDIATE VICINITY OF A RUTTING ALPHA. If he has just remained a beta nothing would have happened. Maybe SEX, but no marking.
I DON'T know WHICH posts you have been READING, but that was the progression of the story. Stop blaming me for shit written at the begining with little to no info. Anyways. I'm so done now. No need to come after me anymore. Interpret it how you want. Idc anymore. So done w/ IMMATURE readers!!!
Both Ian and Noah are at fault for not being clear about their expectations.
Noah wasn't the only person who was violated in this chapter. Ian is at home alone and has no self awareness, no ability to consent. No ability to control his actions. You sleep with a drunk person that's assault. Ian isn't falling down drunk but it's the same principle.
Noah assumed he would be fine because he's a beta but you shouldn't go into someone's space when they're going through something that alters their mind. You just don't.
That's the whole point of the story, at least for me, is that this happened and it happened to both of them. Rather staying to explain, Noah took off. Could you imagine, waking up, clearly having had sex but no idea how or with who?
Neither one of them is "right". They've both done pain and damage and the story is to overcome that.
