"So, it's time," Eugene took a deep breath.
"So, it's time," Arthur nodded. The alpha paused, tilted his head, and turned to his side. "But why are you treating this like it's a challenge?"
"Phew..." Eugene exhaled slowly, as if he was already exhausted by the future ordeal. "Just wait and see."
Okay? Arthur arched his brow inquisitively while following Eugene and Hannah into the clothing store.
Tobias's birthday party, through various unexpected situations, had mitigated the awkwardness born from Eugene's heat. It was more embarrassing to be constantly embarrassed by someone's presence than to face the alpha whose scent he used to jerk off during his heat. It wasn't like Eugene could smell that scent in a normal situation, anyway.
Thanks to that, the time they spent in Arthur's car was no longer filled only by Hannah's incessant yap about her newest interest--although it was rather interesting hearing her pivot from an aspiring nurse to a wandering bard.
