Love Me, My Omega!

Tomorrow would already be Monday. Justin had no choice but to go back home with the twins because the castle was a bit too far from their preschool. Not to mention, he also has to go to work.

Tristan stayed behind at the castle. He told Justin from the other side of the door that he'll go home by tomorrow since his rut would already end by then.

Of course, Justin was worried about leaving Tristan, but he knew that he should still bring the kids to school.

Before the sun sets, he and the children already left the castle to go home.

His parents and Dani were supposed to stay at a nearby inn, but Ben insisted on letting them stay in his house. Of course, Dani refused at first because it was too embarrassing to impose on him especially that they just met recently, but Ben strongly insisted on it and they couldn't really refuse him after all that.

The twins haven't opened their gifts yet and they were told that those will be delivered to their apartment unit.

The reason why they didn't open them yet despite having so much time to do so was that they wanted their daddy to see them opening the gifts he and Justin prepared for them. They wanted to show him what their reactions will be once they see the gifts because they knew it would make their daddy happy.

Time went by quickly and it was already Monday.

Justin was already accustomed to having Tristan drive the kids to school with him, but now that he's the only one dropping them off at their preschool, he now feels a bit empty.

Justin is currently at his office desk, blankly staring at the monitor and unable to work at his full capacity. His mind was filled with thoughts of Tristan.

He was worrying if he was really all better and if he has already eaten. What occupied his mind too was the time when Tristan will be coming home.

"Home..." he muttered under his breath as he sighed.

'He also has his own place. I almost forgot about it because he's always staying in my apartment these days,' Justin thought, still staring blankly at the monitor. 'Ah, right. I also have to ask the twins whether it's okay for them to move to Tristan's place,' he thought.

'I miss him,' Justin thought and sighed.

It hasn't even been that long since the last time he saw Tristan, but he already misses him so much. It was like since they became mates, he's been missing him a lot compared to back when they were still dating five years ago.

It was like he's more attached to him now than he was before.

"You keep sighing. Is something wrong?"

Justin snapped back to reality when he heard a familiar voice from behind him. He turned his swivel chair to face that person and saw Mark smiling at him.

"Coffee?" Mark offered as he raised the cup a bit to show it to him.

Justin suddenly remembered how Tristan reacted the last time he accepted the coffee Mark gave him. He thought that he shouldn't accept it this time so as to not upset Tristan if he ever hears about this.

Justin also knew that his alpha felt a level of jealousy towards Mark, especially that they're much closer to each other at work than he is with Justin.

"I've already had enough caffeine this morning, but thank you for the thought," Justin said as he smiled and turned the swivel chair to face his computer once again.

'He's really turning me down, huh?' Mark thought as he looked at the coffee he was holding.

As he was looking downward, his eyes suddenly drifted towards Justin's nape and saw that he has a bite mark on it.

At that moment, it became clear to him that he definitely does not stand a chance anymore now that Justin has already been marked.

What can a beta like him even do against the relationship between an alpha and omega who has already bonded?

"What about you, Hannah? Would you like a cup of coffee?" Mark smiled at the woman who kept stealing glances at him since earlier.

He didn't have anyone else to give the coffee to since he also has a cup on his table, so he decided to just give it to Hannah. The way she kept glancing at him made Mark think that she wants coffee.

"U... Uh... Yes, sure..." Hannah stuttered, feeling a bit embarrassed that Mark caught her stealing glances at him. "Here you go," Mark handed the cup to her with a smile on his face. Hannah slowly stretched her arm and took the coffee from his hand. "Thank you," she thanked him as she placed the cup on her desk.

"You're welcome," Mark smiled and left.

Carl had a bitter look on his face as he watched Mark walk back to his desk that was on the other side of the room.

'Why did he have to give it to Hannah?' he thought as he frowned while still staring at Mark's back.

He got up from his chair and went to his girlfriend's desk. Before Hannah could even take a sip of the coffee, Carl took the cup from her hand and drank it.

It wasn't really that hot because it already turned warm from being inside an airconditioned office for a few minutes. Because it was warm enough not to burn Carl's tongue, he gulped down the entire cup, making Hannah look at him in confusion.

"If you wanted coffee, you could have told me so I could buy one for you. Why did you have to take that from me?" Hannah said as she looked at him weirdly. Carl just ignored her as he walked back to his desk, trying to avoid starting another fight with her.

"Ugh, that jerk. He's ignoring me again," Hannah murmured as she rolled her eyes.

"Good morning, Sir Lee. I'm sorry to disturb you when you're out on a leave, but there are some documents that you need to tend to ASAP. These arrived an hour ago and I was informed that they have to be done by 12 noon," Erika said on the phone.

Tristan is currently lying on his bed in his penthouse. He went home last night because he felt way too lonely staying in the castle.

Honestly, he wanted to go to Justin's apartment, but he knew he shouldn't. If he did go there last night, he might attack him because his rut wasn't fully over yet.

He moved his phone away from his ear and looked at the time. It was 9:30 in the morning, which means that he only has very little time to work on those documents.

He put his phone next to his ear once again and said, "I'll be there by 10:15." He ended the phone call without having his secretary respond to what he said.

Tristan got off his bed and did his daily routines. Before leaving the penthouse, he made sure to inject a suppressant on his body just to take precautions since his rut just ended.

He then headed to the company and started reading the documents as soon as he got to his office.

Honestly, it was quite taxing for him because his body still wasn't feeling very well from his rut, but he doesn't have any choice. He has a position in the company where he's guaranteed to be very busy. It's even a miracle that he's able to go home at 5 p.m. sharp every single working day.

As he worked on the documents, he kept glancing at his wristwatch, checking how much time he has left until the deadline of the documents.

He hurriedly worked on them without making any mistakes and finished them by 11:59 a.m.

"I'll have these photocopied and send these to them, Sir Lee. I'll be taking my leave now," Erika said and politely bowed her head before leaving Tristan's office.

Instead of stretching a bit, he fished his phone from his pocket instead. He wanted to text or call Justin so they could eat together, but he figured it would be better to just surprise him instead.

He stood up and went out of his office. He then made his way to Justin's department and as soon as he got there, he immediately took a peek from the glass wall to see Justin.

Justin, Carl, and Hannah are currently walking to the door to go out and eat lunch. Some of the employees were still on their desks and haven't left yet, and some of them were also heading out of their office to eat lunch.

A smile formed on Tristan's lips as he watched Justin walk out of the door. The more Tristan stared at him, the more gloomy Justin looked. The alpha's smile faded a little, worrying why Justin had that kind of look on his face.

As soon as Justin got out, he met Tristan's eyes, noticing that there's somebody staring at him.

His gloomy face became brighter as his eyes sparkled from seeing his alpha. When Tristan saw how Justin's facial expression changed, his smile became bigger, happy that his omega didn't look so sad anymore.

Tristan raised his hand a little and waved at Justin. The omega said something to his coworkers and jogged towards Tristan. Carl and Hannah were desperately trying to control their facial expressions because seeing the demon CEO smile like that was still weird to them.

"Hello, darling," Tristan said as Justin stood before him.

"Care to have lunch with me?"
