I Shouldn't Run Away

─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───

The one word Felix would use to describe the morning following the end of Chan's rut would be soft.

His eyes landed on his mate who was laid next to him, using his own arm as a pillow and already gazing at Felix with the most tender expression, "morning mairëa"

It took a while for Felix to figure out Chan was using their mind-link. He shuffled closer to the alpha, grimacing slightly when sharp pains ran through his body, but he ignored them and pulled the blanket up to cover his exposed shoulders.

"What does that mean?"

"Beautiful."

The omega grinned from ear to ear.

Chan couldn't help but return the contagious smile, the two just smiling at each other, stuck in their own bubble.

When a large palm came up to push a lock of blonde hair away from covering his eyes and down to cup his cheeks, Felix couldn't help but tilt his head and peck the alpha's palm before nuzzling into the warmth, his wolf purring in contentment.

"Did I hurt you too much?" Chan's troubled voice snapped Felix out of the haze.

"Hmm, but it's okay I kind of asked for it," he chuckled, but Chan clearly didn't find any of this amusing in the slightest, a frown pulling wrinkles across his forehead.

"I'm sorry I should have at least tried to hold ba-"

"Stop. You don't have to apologise for something you can't control. And I'm glad you didn't hold back, I can take whatever you give me Chan," replied Felix, keeping his eyes locked with the alpha's. "Besides I'm your omega, so who else would?" he smiled cheekily.

The older male sighed, his worry fading, "You're such a tease mírë," Sighing again, Chan pecked Felix on the forehead, but didn't move away as he uttered "let me take care of you then," lips brushing against the soft skin.

And Felix wasn't one to deny being pampered.

.........................

The two stayed cuddled up in bed for a while longer until their stomachs were too loud to ignore.

And just as Chan had promised, Felix didn't have to raise a single finger.

He had walked around the bed (completely naked, not that Felix was complaining), and picked up the blonde to carry towards the bathroom in order to clean themselves up.

Felix didn't question how the tub was already filled with water and at the perfect temperature.

He couldn't help the sighs that escaped his parted lips when the other massaged his back, fingers pressing into his skin, or when he scratched at his scalp making him hum gently.

He was close to falling back asleep when Chan had rubbed oils into his damp skin once they had left the circular tub, and dried his hair with a towel, nodding off every few seconds as the soothing motions lulled him to sleep.

Too lazy to put on clothing, Felix just whined as Chan asked what he wanted to wear and had ended up just throwing a clean, almost sheer sheet around the omega, and picked the blonde up koala style. Felix sighed (for the hundredth time), arms clinging around Chan's neck tightly, head resting under the alpha's chin, eyes resting.

Chan himself was in a pair of wide legged pants that hung low, feet and upper body bare of any restricting material, much to Felix's liking.

When Chan had placed him down, he wasn't expecting to be bombarded by his pack members.
