Beth almost started laughing. “It’s fine. You wouldn’t be the first pregnant omega to ever work here. Just let us know when you’re close to your due date so we can arrange shifts, okay?”
Mason nodded, relieved. “Okay.”
“Come on!” Beth said to Mason. “I’ll show you around the place.”
A tiny smile tugged at Mason’s lips. His eyes shone. I’d never seen him so happy.
“Do you mind if I - ?” he asked me, gesturing to Beth.
“Go for it,” I said with a grin. “I’ll be waiting for ya outside.”
He nodded quickly before following Beth as she toured him around the building. I had the feeling it would take a while, so I grabbed an ice cream cone from a nearby store before sitting on the bench outside. It was late afternoon when Mason finally got out. He looked haggard and exhausted, but he was beaming. Joy radiated off his whole being. I grinned up at him.
“Ready to go home?” I asked.
He nodded. “Yeah.”
“So? How was it?”
Mason sighed contentedly. “It was… awesome.”
