Leslie had been away from his mate for a week, and surprisingly he was doing quite well. He thought it would be hard to be away from Kellen when he decided to leave that day. Besides the occasional headache, and night sweats, and the sudden horniness, it was if he was finding strength he didn't know he had. Leo missed Thad, but his wolf understood the reason he had to get out of the house. When Kellen stopped what was happening between them, the omega felt embarrassed, sadness, and most of all, he felt rejected. He couldn't believe he jumped Kellen like that, a straight man no less. He was usually more reserved than that. However, the signals his alpha was giving him led him to doing something he regretted.
He wanted to apologize, but when he returned to the office, Kellen was gone. He waited in the office 45 minutes hoping that his alpha returned, thinking of their encounter. The way his alpha held, nibbles on his lips, squeezed his ass made the omega whimper at the thought. On top of that, his heat was getting worse. It was almost dark and the amount of slick he was producing had his underwear wet for the second time that day.
He knew Kellen probably felt confusion beyond words. After all, the alpha did kiss him back. He couldn't imagine what the man was going through.
So Leslie waited. He waited until he felt that familiar feeling he got when Kellen f*ucked someone.
His heart immediately broke. A stray tear fell from his eyes, and the headaches immediately began. He couldn't believe Kellen would go sleep with someone after everything that happened between them. Even if he was confused about what happened, he shouldn't have went out and slept with someone. Kellen knew what that did to the omega.
After gathering himself, Les wiped
the remaining tears away from his eyes and left the room. First, he took a shower, which gave him time to think. He needed to get away from Kellen so he decided to leave for a few days.
He couldn't just leave his alpha even though he was hurt. Still thinking of Kellen, he prepared enough meals for his alpha to last a week. By then he'd hope to have made a decision about what he wanted. He packed his bag, wrote a simple note, sprayed sent blockers to mask the sent of his heat, and left.
******************
When Leslie decided that it was time to phone Kellen, he'd made the decision to stay with his man. He didn't want to leave his mate over a misunderstanding. After all, he agreed to an open relationship. He couldn't back out now when knew what he was getting into. He'd just have to find a way to deal with the f*ucking other people. Maybe he could find a caster for a spell to help with the pain.
Les went for his cell phone to call Kellen when he heard a knock on his hotel door. The whiff that waffled under the door frame let him know that it was his alpha.
He grew anxious. What if Kellen had come to reject them, the omega thought.
The Luna nervously approached the door, and opened it slowly.
"Hello, Kellen," the omega said in barely a whisper. Looking down, he still couldn't look the bigger man in the eyes.
"Leslie." The sound of his alpha's voice made him tremble a bit. He hated the effect the man had on him.
Kellen noticed the shiver from his omega, and made his cock slightly extend. But the alpha held it together, still not understanding the new attraction to the man. The want he felt for the omega was still there.
Leslie finally looked up meeting the alpha's eyes. They stared at each other not knowing exactly what to say. Kellen went to open his mouth but closed it. He looked upon his omega and thought that he was the most beautiful creature he has ever laid eyes on, and wondered why he hadn't noticed his beauty until recently.
Barely audible, Les murmured. "I'm sorry, Kellen."
Caught off guard by the omega's apology left the alpha further speechless. Why was he apologizing when it was him that fucked up.
Seeing the omega distressed, he slowly entered the room, closing the door behind him. He wrapped
his arms around his Luna, lifting his legs around his waist. Having the man in his arms felt right. Inhaling his sent, Thaddeus even purred with content. He was back with his mate.
"There's no need to apologize, sweetheart. I should be the one who apologize." He said while caressing the man's back.
He continued to hold the man, not wanting to let go. Hearing his Luna sniffle in his arms, tore his heart into. He did this to his chosen, and he was going to fix things between them. He just hoped Les agreed to his plan.
"Shhhh, don't cry, Leslie. I can't stand to hear you cry. I'm a jerk. Please, forgive me."
Leslie pulled back from the man, dropped his feet to the floor and walked to the nightstand to grab a Kleenex. He had been so overwhelmed by emotion at seeing Kellen, he'd almost forgotten why he left the man in the first place.
He wiped the tears from his eyes while his alpha stood looking nervously at the omega.
"You hurt me, Kellen. I knew what I did was wrong but, did you really have to go sleep with someone?"
Kellen dropped his head in shame.
"You sleeping with others physically makes me weak. It harms my body, Kellen. You knew this and still fucked someone." There was no anger in the Luna's tone, only disappointment.
Kellen had no way to explain his actions except for admit the truth.
"I was afraid, Leslie. I was afraid of the feelings I felt when we kissed. I'm so sorry I hurt you."
"I understand being confused, Kellen. But instead of you talking it out with me, you slept with someone. We are still partners. I would have understood." Leslie spoke with truth in his heart. He knew coming to terms with one's sexuality is a confusing time.
"I know what I did was wrong, but all this is new to me. It scared the hell out of me, Leslie. I think I felt if I could sleep with a female, then that meant I wasn't attracted to men."
Kellen sighed feeling defeated. "I know that was a dumb thing to do. Please, let me make this up to you. Let me fix this, Les."
The omega could hear the sincerity in his alpha's voice. He couldn't stand to hear Kellen sound so broken.
Feeling his resolve break, Les exhaled. "I was wrong too, Kellen. I shouldn't have kissed you like that. It's just I couldn't help myself. You're so damn handsome." The omega giggled.
Hearing his omega giggle was like a weight lifted off him. He grabbed his Luna and held him tight, picking him up, spinning him in a circle. "Does this mean you forgive me?"
"Yes, I forgive you, you buffoon. Put me down. You're making me horny."
The alpha dropped the omega immediately, stared at him, and smirked. "Can't have that now, can we."
"As a matter of fact, no f*ucking way. What you did gave me blue ball. I'm done with straight guys." The omega said jokingly.
"Now take me out to eat, I'm f*ucking starving.. you still have to a lot of making up to do. By the way, I'm ordering the most expensive thing on the menu. I've been horny all week because of that shit you pulled."
"My bags are in the closet, let's go home."
"Yes, Luna." The Alpha spoke barely containing his smile.
