Seon

I had to force myself to stay seated while he shouted at me.

Now, however…

Now he’s just leaning against my shoulder lazily, playing with my fingers beneath the table.

Tracing the veins on the back of my hand absentmindedly.

Untangling my rings one by one.

Possessive omega behavior.

Beautiful omega behavior.

I glance down at him briefly.

His expression is calmer now, though faint irritation still lingers around the edges. His scent has softened too, no longer edged with sharp distress.

Good.

I’d rather burn this company to the ground than let him stay upset for too long.

“Better now, my little star?” I murmur quietly.
