Dirty Little Secret

Talks and Promises

Ryan's POV

      I sigh to myself as Benny looks away, tears in his eyes as he does.

     'And this is why I didn't want Nick to be spoiled. The wolf has no sense of selflessness.' Jace growls in my head but I ignore him, knowing he's going not upset because of the situation with Nick.

    "Benny, look at me." I tell the wolf and he hesitantly turns his face so that his eyes meet mine and I reach out to brush away the tears that fell from his eyes. "You won't be happy until your fix that bond with Nick. We can't all be happy until you accept and work on whatever you need to." I urge him and he shakes his head.

     "Why is it my fault?" He asks, his lip wobbling.

      "Because you're the one that keeps leaving. You're the one who isn't there for him like he's there for you. He hasn't done anything wrong." I explain to him but I can tell it doesn't work. "I'll make you a promise. You and Nick begin working this out and we can have time together every week."

      He peaks up at me, black eyes dewey from
his tears. "Every week?" He asks softly and I nod.

    He bites his lip in contemplation before he finally nods and I smile proudly at him, pulling the small wolf into my lip and he hums his satisfaction, his nose going straight to my neck, rubbing his scent all over my neck, and I roll my eyes, though I don't say anything, letting him do as he pleases.

    I raise my brows however when I feel teeth nip at my neck and my cock begin to fill in my pants and I pray to the Goddess that we both stop.

    "Stop it." I say gently, pulling Benny away from my neck and he whines a bit. "We can't take advantage of our body if our humans aren't on board. I tell him and he crosses his arms.

      "But it's our body too." He says and I nod in agreement.

     "Yes, but just like they wouldn't do anything without our consent, we shouldn't either. We share a body and therefore a choice." I tell him and he sighs but agrees. I watch at the moon gets higher in the sky and sigh between the two of us.

     "Jason and Nick need to talk now." I tell him and I can feel Jace immediately get anxious, shaking his head in denial over having to talk to our Mate after he ran away from him three days ago. I had watched painfully as everyone had gone back to ignoring each other though this time it wasn't just a day, it was the rest of the week.

    "Do I have to?" Benny asks and I pull his head forward and give him a silent soft kiss on the head, pulling back to look into his eyes and brush his dark golden locks out of his face.

     "Yes, my spoiled little pup. We'll talk soon." I promise and he nods into my hands before he closes his eyes and opens them to reveal and tired looking Nick. "Sleeping?"

     He nods his head while rubbing his eyes.

    And I force jason forward before falling back, hoping my stubborn asshole of a human doesn't fuck this up.

Jason's POV

    I open my eyes to find Nick in front of me, his body hunched over as he rubs his eyes, and I look away, not wanting to notice just how good his paler skin looks at the moon blared down on it.

    Not knowing what to say, I don't say anything, but of course, that approach isn't approved by Ryan.

     'Ask him if he's okay. Tell him something. Don't just sit there.' He tells me, his voice patient but I can tell it's wearing thin.

      Before I can open my mouth, Nick opens his and begins to talk, and I listen, knowing that if he wants to start a conversation it must be important. "Would you want to be my Mate if I wasn't an Omega?" He asks me, his voice weak but clear of tears, though the hurt in it is almost impossible to ignore.

      "What?" I ask hun, floored at the question. "Why would you think that-" Before I can continue I'm cut off.

      "How come Ryan wants us and you don't? Are you embarrassed of me? I'm sorry!" He tells me, his voice breaking as he turn to me, a few stray tears falling down his cheeks and I feel my heart squeeze on my chest when I see that not only is he upset, but I made him cry. "I don't want to be weak and I don't want to be sensitive. Please don't hate me. I don't want you to hate me." He tells me, tears falling into the dark of the night and I can't find my voice.

    I just stare at him, panic flying through me as I watch him break in front of my eyes, needing me to reach out and touch him and hold him, but it's like I can hear the pain inside him.

    All I can see are the tears I caused.

    All I hear is the voice in my head that belongs to me, not Ryan, covered in blood and looking over at someone's beaten and half dead body.

      'The only thing you're good for is hurting people. Ans here you are, hurting the person that you were born to protect two times over.'

      Because just like I thought, all I end up doing is putting Nick through pain.

Ironically Jason finds himself doing the very thing that he was scared of doing. What do you think about what these two are going through?
