I Failed to Run Away After Becoming a Comfort Suppressant for a Sickly Alpha

Zhu Chenwei was dealt a disastrous hand from the start.

Her father was an alcoholic who beat the family, her mother expected her to become a success, her younger brother was an ignorant slacker, and she herself could barely finish middle school thanks to financial support from her elementary school teacher.

Zhu Chenwei thought this was simply how her life would be.

But when she was fifteen, an elegantly dressed woman came to her home. She said Zhu Chenwei's pheromones were highly compatible with those of her daughter, Jian Qingnian. If Zhu Chenwei was willing to stay by Jian Qingnian's side until she turned twenty and serve as her calming companion, the woman would give her a fortune of tens of millions when their agreement ended, so she would have nothing to worry about.

Zhu Chenwei also noticed a fair-skinned, beautiful girl with an indifferent expression sitting in the woman's car.

The girl watched her while coughing, then gave her a faint smile.

Zhu Chenwei was transfixed.

Without hesitation, she got into the car and left that broken, dark home without looking back.

Just as the woman had promised, Zhu Chenwei was given the same food, clothing, and comforts as the Jian family's eldest daughter, Jian Qingnian. The two also attended the same class at the same aristocratic school.

Jian Qingnian treated her well. She helped Zhu Chenwei catch up on high school subjects, protected her from bullies at school, helped her through heat, and even called her Baby.

Zhu Chenwei also kept her promise, quietly serving as Jian Qingnian's calming agent.

On countless nights during Jian Qingnian's susceptible periods, Zhu Chenwei let her hold her tight and kiss her, gently releasing her pheromones to soothe her.

When she turned twenty, Jian Qingnian recovered from her illness and no longer needed a calming agent.

Zhu Chenwei grabbed her suitcase and prepared to leave, but before she could get out the door, someone grabbed her by the collar.

Jian Qingnian's voice was still gentle. "Baby, where are you going all by yourself?"

After Zhu Chenwei finished explaining in earnest, the smile vanished from Jian Qingnian's face.

Jian Qingnian asked, almost through gritted teeth, "Have you been with me all these years just for that money?"

Zhu Chenwei met her gaze with clear eyes and sincerely answered yes.

Unfortunately, she did not get away. When she woke up again, she found herself in a villa deep in the mountains, with a thin iron chain fastened around her ankle.

The usually gentle Jian Qingnian bit at her lips, her voice hoarse. "Since you went and got me attached, don't think you can run."

Jian Qingnian, eldest daughter of the Jian family, had been frail and sickly since childhood and was allergic to suppressants.

Even after differentiating as an alpha, every susceptible period nearly took half her life.

Until one day, her mother happily told her they had found a girl whose compatibility with her was as high as 99 percent.

In a rare break from her usual habits, Jian Qingnian agreed to go out. She wanted to meet this so-called calming companion of hers.

From the first moment she saw Zhu Chenwei, Jian Qingnian fell for her.

After Zhu Chenwei entered the Fang family, Jian Qingnian tucked away the dark, twisted thoughts deep in her heart and racked her brains to treat her well.

But she was afraid she might not live long, so she never dared confess her feelings to Zhu Chenwei.

Who knew that on the day she recovered, Zhu Chenwei would grab her suitcase and try to run?

Jian Qingnian could no longer hide her obsession and possessiveness.

A disobedient darling ought to be locked up.
