I quickly slipped out my tongue and ran it over my lips to catch any stray droplets of pasta sauce.
Chase breathed out carefully through his nose before responding in a tight voice.
“Nope, not hungry for pasta, sweetheart.”
“Oh, okay,” I said, glancing over at the tray. “Well, there’s some buttered garlic bread there instead. Are you hungry for that?”
“I’m gluten-free.” He said deadpanned.
I let out a surprised laugh at his dry humor. He raised a brow at my amusement.
“Do I not look gluten-free?” He said with a smirk.
I looked him up and down. He was tall, with bulging muscles apparent even in his smart clothes.
My damn pussy clenched up again at my perusal. Looking at his body was going to make me come, so I kept my eyes firmly on his face.
“You look like you eat bunnies for breakfast,” I teased, trying to get my inappropriate horniness under control.
“Well, technically, bunnies are gluten-free, so my point still stands,” he chuckled, gazing into my eyes.
I smiled and looked back, noticing the flecks of gold in his brown eyes. This was feeling too intimate.
I quickly looked away, an unexpected shard of pain stabbing at my heart.
This was so fucking nice, having a hot alpha take care of me and laugh at my jokes. Why couldn’t this be my reality? Why didn’t I deserve this?
“Hey, what’s wrong, sweetheart?” Chase asked me worriedly. “Is your leg bothering you again? I can take another look.”
He set down the plate quickly, the fork falling to the floor with a clatter.
“No, no! I’m just full, that's all. Is it alright if I sleep in this bed? I’m so exhausted,” I replied quickly, avoiding his gaze. I didn’t want him to see the tears threatening to run down my cheeks.
I was already pathetic enough.

“Of course. This room is yours to do with as you please,” I replied carefully, not wanting to upset the omega further.
Clearly, I had made a social blunder and offended her badly. I had to tread slowly now so as not to scare her off.
She pulled the covers up, hiding most of her golden head, and mumbled out a good night, a clear dismissal.
I sighed.
I guess I would have to find a way to make it up to her tomorrow.
I bent down to pick up the dropped fork from earlier. Luckily, the carpet was dark pink, so hopefully, the red pasta sauce from the fork wouldn’t stain as badly. As I picked up the fork, I spied something else red underneath the bed.
I reached my hand under, pulled it out, and froze. My jaw dropped.
What in the actual fuck?!
It was panties. Red panties.
And I knew exactly who they belonged to from the delicious aroma emanating from them.
I closed my eyes and lost the battle with my cock. It stood rock hard and straight up as I held Gabriella’s soaking wet panties in my hand.
