Chapter 144
Scott and Mitch were sat next to each other on the edge of Avi's bed. Avi stood beside his father, in front of the two. He pointed at Scott. "You. Come stand right here." Scott stood beside him, all three of them facing Mitch. Mr. Kaplan set his hand on Scott's back, but Scott moved away, giving him a weird look. Mitch fiddled his hands around on his lap, his head bowed. Avi's father glared at him. "This 'innocent' act. It doesn't fool me. I knew something was wrong with this pack, but I couldn't figure it out for the life of me. But now I think I've got it." Scott tapped his shoulder. "It's not an act. He is not the problem, if there is one." Avi's dad shook his head. "No. He is the problem. I've only been here for a couple of hours, and he's screwed up in front of me enough times to last an Omega's lifetime." Mitch frowned and looked up. "I am so sorry, Sir. I didn't mean to screw up so much." Avi shook his head. "You didn't screw up, Peanut. Dad's just being rude for some reason." His father turned to him. "Excuse me?" "You heard me. Don't yell at him. You know he didn't intend to hurt Mom. She said so herself." Avi tried to reason. Mitch wrapped his arms around his midsection as he listened to them bicker.
Scott took a step towards him in hopes of comforting him, but Avi's father stopped him with a hand on his chest. "Leave him. He doesn't deserve comfort right now." Mitch pouted and looked down at his lap. Scott tried to walk toward him again, but this time Avi's dad pushed him away. "I said no." Scott squinted at him. "What did he do that upset you? You know he didn't mean to hurt your Omega. So what is it, really?" "When I had my first conversation with him, he spoke to me without making eye contact with me. Disrespectful. Then he tried to make excuses. Disobedient. And finally, the shirt he was wearing, and still is, is entirely inappropriate." The father growled, staring at Mitch. Avi shook his head. "How is that inappropriate? I think he looks great." His father huffed. "Great. Really great for someone like him."
