Chapter 163
Jake walked into the room, and less than a second later, Alex threw himself into Jake's embrace as he began to cry louder. Jake held him tightly, eyes wide. "Allie? What's wrong?" Alex just shook his head, not wanting to disappoint his own Alpha.
Avi hadn't heard anything that happened though, because he knew exactly where Kirstie would be, as he barged into Grace's bedroom. Kirstie was grinning widely as she spoke to Grace, but her smile dropped when she saw Avi's facial expression. Avi wasn't in the mood for anything other than what he was there for though. "Put Grace down, and come here." Kirstie obeyed immediately, knowing she was in trouble. She gently set Grace back in her crib, and then bowed her head as she walked toward Avi. "Sir?" "You know what I'm going to say, right?" "You... Alex told you?" "Not voluntarily. But yeah. Anything you want to add before I come to my own conclusion?" "I just... Todrick was afraid of both you and Alpha Scott being busy at the same time, because he didn't think the others would be safe. So I thought if I... Let Mitch have his first, and I made myself wait, then... It would be better." "Better?" "Safer. And then Mitch and Scott could take care of Grace, which would give Mitch a better understanding of parenthood. And might help Scott to see what being a father is about. Even if just for a few days." Avi nodded slowly. "Okay. That seems relatively reasonable. Why didn't you tell me?" "Because... I thought you'd disagree.. I thought maybe you'd say that I shouldn't take them, and Mitchie should instead." "Because I'm biased." Avi clarified lowly. "No, no! I just mean... I don't know..." "Okay, well.. That's besides the point. Do you understand how bad it is to take someone else's suppressants?" "No, Sir... I thought... Aren't they all the same?" "No. Do you remember back when we had an Inspector named... Andrew, or something like that? He asked Mitch if he had his own suppressants. Even people like The Counsel gave a shit if Omegas had their own, personalized, suppressants."
