It was almost 4 am by the time Alaric returned back to he and Mylo's home.
When he stepped into their bedroom his gaze relaxed on how peacefully Mylo sleeps, cuddling up with his cat and holding him close protectively.
"This is beautiful," Alaric quietly murmured to himself, his heart pounding with joy and satisfaction at this beautiful picturesque.
This was everything he wanted.
Coming home to see his omega sleeping peacefully on their bed and waiting for him to return.
He places his hand on his chest, feeling an intense sensation and aching in his heart.
He slowly draws in a deep breath to calm himself down and then, he begins taking off his shirt, stripping down to his underwear. He is about to climb into bed when his gaze shifts to the tray of untouched and cold food on the bedside table.
The omega did not have his dinner.
He slowly pulls off the blanket, causing Mylo to stir awake.
