Tarable: and whose fault is that?

Glitched_Attraction69: Don’t make me spank that omega ass red.

The butterflies in my stomach kicked up quickly.

Tarable: Goodnight Glitchy.

Glitched_Attraction69: Goodnight baby.

After sitting and staring at the ceiling for god knows how long I got up, showered, and put on some comfy clothes. When Ifinally got back in bed, I turned on some trashy TV on my laptop and opened my phone.

My Alpha: Stream hot tonight?

I flushed.

Tara: Maybe, why do you ask?

My stomach fluttered as I watched those little dots dance in the corner. Though we were mated, things were still new and exciting, and even something small like a text made me giddy.

My Alpha: I can feel you through the bond babygirl. Whatever you were doing had me needing to take myself in my hand. Twice.

God that was hot. Knowing he could feel my pleasure like that was so overwhelming.

Tara: Yeah? That’s pretty hot. Maybe you should watch and know what you’re getting off to

It took him a minute to respond.

My Alpha: I’ll think about it, but I much prefer the real thing.

I giggled out loud to myself.

Tara: I need to go to the mall tomorrow, want to come?

My Alpha: I would love nothing more <3

“Areyou sure you can’t come?” I whined, laying back on my bed with the phone on speaker beside me as I nested into the pillows with Jesse’s sweater wrapped around me.

Now that Charlie and I were bonded, the alpha had been staying at my house more… and since Jesse was still pissed, that meant I saw my boyfriend a whole lot less.

It felt a lot like a win-lose situation where I was simultaneously the winner and the loser.

Jesse’s sigh came through the line, a little muffled under the tear of candy packaging. “No can do, sweetie pie. I have a subathon today since I hit grandmaster.”

I groaned, how could I forget? Jesse had been working their ass off to get their rank up in game, and now that he’d managed to get there it was time to reward the community with a long ass stream that meant he’d be busy for fucking ages.

Lucrative? Yes.

Annoying? Also yes.

“Okay, okay, fine,” I mumbled, snuggling into my nest more. He was miles away, but I still wanted my beta.

I missed his sweet, subtle lemon scent. And his warm arms. And big, beautiful ocean blue eyes…Focus, Tara!

“I guess I’ll have to go to the mall annnnd—” I paused pointedly for dramatic effect, making Jesse laugh. “Spend Glitch's money all by myself like a weird lonely, super hot cat lady!”

Jesse’s eye roll was practically audible. “Why not ask Charlie to go with you? He’s there, isn’t he?”

The jealousy in his voice was unmissable. But it wasn’t like I’d invited Charlie to come and move in with me, it just so happened that while my bite was healing, which took the better part of a week, I craved him being around more than ever.
