“I had a lot of fun. It was really nice to get to know you more,” I replied.
“Agreed.” He said. His eyes studied me with a growing hint of impatience behind them when, suddenly, he leaned into me and rubbed his cheek against mine while inhaling my scent. “I’m sorry, I’m trying to fight a lot of these urges, but the one to scent-mark you is so difficult to ignore.”
I giggled slightly, enjoying the contact. “It’s fine, I’m getting used to it, and it’s nice.” He continued to rub his cheek against mine before moving down to my neck. I thought I felt the faintest touch of his lips brush against me, and my neck leaned more and more into his nose.
“Here we go!” Isaac set down a tray in front of us. His eyes glared at Demetrius, who pulled back almost instantly from me. “Scent-marking her?”
“Not anymore,” Demetrius said. “I can feel the beta blockers wearing off. Ivy’s scent is stronger for me.”
Isaac came around the table and buried his nose in my neck, inhaling deeply. “Mmm, yep, her delicious scent is starting to come through.”
“Isaac…” Demetrius growled.
“What? You can rub against her, but I can’t smell her scent?” he scoffed, returning to his food.
“I was at least subtle, right?” Demetrius looked to me for confirmation.
I laughed, shaking my head. “Not quite.” After taking a small bite of my hot dog, I looked at both of them with a suggestion. “How about when we get back to my building, you both can scent-mark me up as much as you want.”
“Deal,” they said in unison, those wicked grins returning to their faces.
Suddenly, Demetrius and Isaac were eating as fast as possible, making me feel like I had to eat fast too. Within ten minutes, we’d finished and were back in the car, driving toward my apartment.
We enjoyed small talk along the way, but there was a sense of impatience from them. Once we arrived at my building, they rushed up to my apartment and waited for me to catch up outside my door.
“You promised, gorgeous,” Isaac grinned wickedly as I approached. I could sense eagerness in Demetrius as well, though he was hiding it better. There was a certain glint in his eyes as he watched me walk up.
I giggled softly. “Fine, but if anyone shows up down this hallway, you have to stop.”
“Deal,” Isaac said as he wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me into him. “Keep a lookout, will you?”
“No way,” Demetrius said as he stepped closer to my other side, pressing himself against me. Isaac buried his nose inmy neck, rubbing his cheek against mine. Hands were rubbing up and down my body, doing their best to be respectful, though the occasional brush grazed the edge of my breasts.
“Wait…” I whispered, but I didn’t push them away. Instead, I leaned my head back against my apartment door; the sensation of their bodies against mine was heavenly, and their scents were starting to overwhelm me. Occasionally, I felt a brief press of their lips on various parts of my arms and neck.
Every instinct in my body screamed to let them claim me right here, yet my mind was still fighting hard against it. This wasn’t me. Why was I letting them do this? We were moving too fast…My body tensed as my mind started to win.
Suddenly, Demetrius pulled back, grabbing Isaac with him. “That’s enough, we’re done now,” he said sternly. Isaac was breathing heavily as his eyes were fixated on me with a fierce hunger in them.
The loss of contact with them brought out a little whimper from me, which I suddenly covered with my hand. “Yep, that’s good for now!” I breathlessly replied.
I began to take off Demetrius’s jacket, but he stopped me. “You can give it back to me later.”
Something inside me flipped with joy; I didn’t want to part from this jacket. Smiling, I pulled the jacket tighter around me. “Thank you, I’ll take good care of it.”
“Good night, Ivy,” Demetrius said, squeezing my shoulder.
“We’ll see you tomorrow. Sweet dreams.” Isaac brushed his hand against my cheek one last time.
“See you both tomorrow,” I quietly spoke before entering my apartment and locking the door behind me. My heart pounded in my chest as my entire being longed for them to return. I had to get control of these urges, or they would completely take over me. But wasn’t that what an omega did?
My emotions were all over the place as I poured myself a cup of tea and sat at my kitchen table. The gentle rise of the steam helped my mind to focus and reflect on our date tonight.
I expected to become closer to Isaac, but surprisingly, I understood Demetrius a little better, too. He seemed so guarded at times, but he slowly started to let himself have fun.And there was a strong desire to protect those he cared for.
That was such a weird thought to have. Here I was, planning on how to become more romantically involved with my boss. I hadn’t viewed him as my boss all night long, though, and the more time I spent with him, the less I viewed him in a professional manner, not that he didn’t act professionally. There seemed to be a natural attraction between us; he was, after all, exceptionally handsome, andwho wouldn't fawn over his confidence? It was difficult to imagine how our relationship would progress from here, though.
Isaac, on the other hand, continued to be sexy chaos, which was very alluring. I loved getting caught up in his energy. He didn’t bother to filter his thoughts, but still had a way of showing his care and compassion.
