That morning, everyone seemed a little scared of him, almost gawking as he made his way into work and to his office. Dimitrios realized as he saw his reflection in the glass panes of the windows that he was smiling. He quickly smoothed his expression into his usual impervious mask as he took his spot behind his desk and started back in on his reports. He made his way through the rest by lunchtime and accepted Leon’s offer to go out to lunch.
As they left, people were again staring at him with interest and curiosity. Most people never saw Dimitrios leave his office unless headed for a conference room. Dimitrios just looked at his business partner and scoffed.
“Am I such an oddity that everyone needs to stare?” Dimitrios asked as they waited for the elevator.
“This is the first time most of them have seen you without a scowl on your face. They’re probably wondering what poor omega took the brunt of your frustrations to put you in such a good mood.”
Dimitrios just laughed and shoved Leon. “Fuck off.”
As they stepped into the elevator Leon hit the button for the garage, laughing too.
“But seriously, who was it? Did you get laid finally?”
“You’re so interested in my sex life. I’m starting to think you’re gonna make me an offer.” Dimitrios put a dramatic hand to his forehead and turned to his friend. “I’m sorry Leon, but I just don’t love you like that. I hope we can still be friends.”
The alpha flipped him off. “You’re an asshole. But I’m glad you seem to be feeling better.”
They took Leon’s red Porsche to lunch. Dimitrios soon realized that his friend really thought he’d gotten laid. Leon had always had the most interesting views on life, and his blasé attitude and deadpan delivery never failed to make him laugh.
“I told you, you just needed to get laid. You get your dick a little wet and suddenly you’re shooting rainbows out of your ass. I’m telling you. All an alpha needs in this life are two things.” Leon said, sipping at his drink absently.
“And what are those two things? I’m fascinated.” Dimitrios rested his chin on his hands in mock-interest, but Leon answered anyway as if not knowing or caring that he was being sarcastic.
“Full bellies and empty balls. That’s it.”
Dimitrios burst into laughter, unable to hold in his amusement at his unusual friend. Why was he even surprised?
“You are truly a romantic at heart.”
“I’m a realist. Hunger and horniness are the enemies of logical thinking. These are facts.”
“You should write a book. Go on tour and give self-help speeches. You’re so inspiring. Your book can be called ‘Jizz: The Enemy of Alpha Clarity’. I’d buy it.”
Leon just flipped him off again, and they started eating, changing the subject back to work until it was time to go.
The rest of Dimitrios' day was one of the most productive he’d had in a while. He guessed that there was some wisdom in letting yourself rest, though he’d never admit to Leon how right he’d been. Honestly though… he actually thought it might have been more thanks to his mystery coffee shop boy. He hadn’t had a decent orgasm in so long, and finally getting off had helped a ton in relaxing him and allowing him to sleep.
Dimitrios was almost late to his appointment at Magic Shop. He’d been on a long conference call all afternoon and barely escaped in time to rush to meet his matchmaker. He arrived only a few minutes late, but as soon as he exited the elevator, he smelled a familiar scent that had his body warming and his cock twitching in interest. Vanilla bean… lovely.
He wasn’t sure where it was coming from, it seemed to just fill the space in general. Dimitrios dismissed it, thinking maybe someone had a candle or something. Though, he couldn’t help but breathe through his nose, enjoying the pretty smell that reminded him of his mystery omega.
He walked up to the reception desk and looked at the tall female alpha at the desk. He caught her scent, wondering if she was the one making the vanilla smell, but she smelled like pine. It wasn’t her.
“Good afternoon, welcome to Magic Shop. How can I help you?”
“Hi, I’ve got an appointment. Name’s Dimitrios Cirillo.”
She consulted her computer briefly before giving him a smile and walking around the desk.
“If you’ll follow me sir.” She swept a hand to indicate the direction they were headed.
Dimitrios followed her down a hallway and into an office that was occupied by another female alpha, who stood and shook his hand with a surprisingly strong grip.
“I’m Samantha King. It’s nice to meet you Mr. Cirillo. Please have a seat.”
Dimitrios sat in one of the chairs across the desk as the receptionist left and closed the door behind her. He turned his focus to the matchmaker, who was looking at him with professional composure.
“Let’s get started, shall we?” Samantha King began sedately.
