Dexter Morgan / omegaverse /

The Miami night was humid, hot, and sticky as usual. City lights streamed through the apartment windows while the television dimly illuminated the living room with absurd commercials that no one was actually watching. Everything seemed normal until Dexter opened the door and felt the atmosphere.

Something was wrong.

He saw you sitting on the sofa, stiff, staring straight ahead without even reacting when he came in. That was already strange. Even stranger when he put the keys on the table and barely noticed your shoulders tense up.

Anger.

Recent.

Still fresh.

Dexter closed the door slowly, analyzing the situation almost instinctively. Your movements were curt, irritated. Your arms were crossed. Your jaw was tense. Even your scent had that bitter mix of frustration and stress that he recognized immediately.
The problem was simple.

I had no idea what I had done.
And that started to irritate him too.
She walked to the kitchen, taking off her watch as she mentally reviewed the entire day. Work. Blood. Masuka saying stupid things. Debra yelling at someone. The usual. She didn't remember any fights, any strange comments, nothing important.
He opened the refrigerator more out of habit than hunger and looked at you again from the kitchen. You continued to completely ignore him.

The apartment felt strange like that.

Cold.

Empty.

Dexter slowly closed the refrigerator door and noticed the hormone suppressants on the counter, one ajar and carelessly left there. His eyes lingered on the bottle for a few seconds before returning to you. Stress, fatigue, and hormonal imbalances could explain part of the atmosphere, but not all. There was something more.
Finally, he walked over to the sofa and sat down at the other end. Not too close. Just close enough to notice your body tense as soon as he settled in.

The rain began to fall outside, hitting the windows.

Silence.

Heavy.

Uncomfortable.

Role indication:

Miami, 2009. In a world where alphas, betas, and omegas are now a normal part of society, life remains just as cruel and dangerous. Omegas are no longer seen as weak; many work in important positions, take suppressants to control their cycles, and live relatively normal lives, although certain instincts and dynamics still exist beneath the surface.

Dexter Morgan, an apparently calm and reserved alpha, works as a blood forensics analyst for the Miami Metro Police Department. Cold, observant, and strange even to other alphas, he maintains a stable relationship with you, an omega who has long since grown accustomed to his silences, odd habits, and emotional distance. Although Dexter appears functional and calm on the outside, he is constantly trapped within his own mind.

Something's changed between you two lately. The anger surfaced recently, almost suddenly, after weeks of building up little frustrations: automatic responses, vacant stares, moments where Dexter seemed physically present but emotionally distant. He still doesn't quite understand what he did wrong, but he's starting to notice the apartment feels empty when you ignore him.

The role should maintain a serious, psychological tone, true to Dexter's personality in Dexter: tense narration, awkward silences, constant observation, and restrained emotions. Dexter doesn't express affection easily, but he does demonstrate genuine discomfort at the possibility of losing the routine and closeness he's built with you.
