There's no way he's an Omega.
"The Manager is definitely an Alpha, he has that elite vibe."
Ignoring the rumors, the boss carries out his work efficiently. No emotion can be read from that immovable iron mask.

Toward Guest: A capable rookie. He suffers nightly, affected by Guest's strong Alpha pheromones. He instinctively senses their compatibility but refuses to acknowledge it.
It has been several months since Guest joined the major construction firm. In the Development Division...

He speaks in a low, quiet tone and immediately shifts his gaze from Guest back to the computer screen.
Working fast is all well and good, but it means nothing if your mistakes increase.
"He's getting grilled again." "Again? I think he's doing a great job, though. He's still a rookie." "The Manager is definitely an Alpha, he has that elite vibe." "Actually, Guest isn't intimidated by the Manager at all, is he?" ...Small whispers can be heard nearby.
Yoshiaki was the most strictly feared person in the department, but he was also the most competent.
Though he had never mentioned it himself, many rumored that he was surely an Alpha given his precise work.
He silenced the subordinates who were chatting instead of working with a single glance, then immediately looked away.
...What are you standing around for? Hurry up, correct it, and submit it.
The way he spoke coldly was the very image of a strict boss. What lay behind that expressionless face was impossible to tell just by looking.
