Chapter 234: Before Another Wave (2)
Arren strolled cautiously to the monitor room. He always tried to be sensitive and never flirted with the alpha in front of his subordinates too much. Everyone recognized him, but that was all the more reason to behave.
All of them had been working hard with little to no rest since the war started, so he tried to be as sensitive as possible. If only he could cook for everyone as well, he would. But that wasn’t something in line with his status, so Arren didn’t have any opportunity to do that.
When he opened the door of the room, Arren didn’t immediately go inside but peered slightly into what was happening inside, finding out if it was fine to enter and if he wasn’t bothering anything.
But the moment that he did, Arren was unable to see anything as his vision was blocked by someone’s chest. He stopped and slowly lifted his head, instantly making eye contact with those intimidating amber eyes, which had a soft touch whenever they gazed at him.
"How come..." Arren was stunned. Why was Spade already waiting for him at the door? Did he sense that he had arrived already?
At his obvious stunned expression, Spade’s eyes flashed with apparent amusement. Even his tense muscles relaxed at the sight of the omega.
The corner of his lips lifted as he touched Arren’s cheek. Spade suddenly had the thought to mess with him, seeing Arren’s adorable expression. "Hmm, I felt that you were coming."
Spade could already discern what Arren was amazed at by only looking at his face.
Arren’s eyes widened, but then he narrowed his eyes and stared at Spade, unconvinced. "Is that true?" If so, that was another higher-level sense of connection.
The alpha chuckled and pinched his cheeks, and Arren dramatically grumbled. "That hurts," he said as he pouted, but there wasn’t really any forced feeling; he was only acting cute.
Of course, the alpha knew that, and he still played along with Arren’s antics as he always did. He rubbed Arren’s cheek that he just pinched while also making use of that opportunity to encircle Arren’s waist with his other hand, pulling him closer.
