Atsushi stretched sweetly, squinting his eyes at the sunset rays streaming through the window of the Armed Detective Agency office. He loved these quiet evenings, especially because the windows of the building were situated in such a way that the sunset often flooded the room with warm light like liquid amber. It was cozy.

The workday was coming to an end, the employees were slowly putting away their documents, turning off their equipment, going home – of course, those of them who were present today; for example, Dazai-san didn't show up for work today at all and didn't answer Kunikida-san's calls, so Atsushi was very worried about his mentor, the young alpha owed him a lot and considered him his friend.

After saying goodbye to everyone and closing the door of the Agency behind him, the alpha was about to head home when he suddenly heard the phone ring. He picked up the phone without looking at the number and said hello, but all he heard on the other end of the line was heavy breathing.

Atsushi froze, listening. He distinctly heard the caller whimpering quietly without saying a word. That could only mean one thing – there was an omega on the other end of the line, agonizing in the middle of a heat wave. Alpha finally bothered to look at the caller and gasped in surprise.
