Forbidden Alpha - Chapter 183
Adea
Gabe fought the smile on his face but I couldn’t help it. My eyes darted to Leo and the smile on his face said he didn’t believe Gabe for one second.
“Or maybe the opportunity hasn’t presented itself to you yet,” Leo said. “Maybe,” Leo continued as he leaned forward, his forearms on his thighs, his eyes trained on Gabe, “you’d mingle if a hot muscular sexy man gave himself to you.”
Gabe didn’t flinch or show any sign of being affected by Leo’s words. He just stared back at him like they were talking about the weather. I felt warm and I fought the urge to fan myself as I watched them.
“Maybe,” Gabe said as he leaned forward, “not.”
The sexual tension was so thick you could cut it with a knife. If it went any longer the electricity in the air would combust. Just when I thought it couldn’t get any hotter the kitchen door swung open.
All three heads turned and watched as the Delta stepped out pushing a cart of food. The tension was forgotten and mouths watered as eyes searched the cart hungrily. As he grew closer, I made out a platter of steaming hot paninis.
One half of the tray was turkey and the other beef. My eyes scoured the rest of the cart and I noticed another platter of chips, a large bowl of soup, and a salad bowl. There were also two jugs, one of orange juice and the other of water.
“Thank you, Delta John,” Gabe said as the Delta came to a stop before reaching the couches.
Well, I now know his name so I can avoid the awkwardness of asking him for it. Delta John tells him it’s no problem as he grabs a folded table from the bottom of the cart. He unfolds it and puts it in between our couch and Leo’s couch.
After the table is set up, Delta John turns back to the cart and begins unloading the cart. I swallow the saliva pooling in my mouth as the smells fill the air. When everything is set up nicely in front of us, I force myself to tear my eyes from the food.
“Thank you, Delta John. Everything looks and smells amazing.”
“No worries, Luna. I’m glad it’s to your liking. Please link me if you need anything else,” Delta says and with a slight bow, he excuses himself.
I don’t bother waiting and grabbing a plate. I fill my plate and grab a bowl and fill it with soup. Gabe had been complaining this whole time but I didn’t realize how starved I was until the food was in front of me.
When Gabe and Leo were done filling their plates, I was already halfway through my sandwich. I was about to take another bite when my eyes caught on Leo. He was staring at Gabe while he shoved half of his sandwich in his mouth. The way he was doing it while maintaining eye contact made the act of eating a sandwich so much more sexual than it should have been. It wasn’t the first time today but I choked on my spit and poured myself a glass of orange juice.
“Are you okay?” Gabe asked as he slapped my back.
“Yeah,” I coughed. “I didn’t realize Leo’s mouth was that big.”
Gabe snorted and Leo smirked. Shaking my head I picked up my sandwich and took another bite. I don’t think I’ve ever seen Delta John work the front lobby before but whenever I saw him working it, I would be sure to ask for another sandwich.
“This panini might be better than sex,” I groaned.
“You’re lying,” Gabe said. “You’re just really hungry. The three of us know nothing is better than sex and I know big Alpha isn’t doing it wrong.” I blushed and decided against answering that question. Instead, I picked up my soup and started scooping delicious bites of broccoli potato deliciousness into my mouth.
The three of us scarf down the rest of our food. I try to savor it but I’m so hungry and I don’t bother trying to eat nicely. We’re all hungry.
“So, Leo,” I said. I put a dent in my soup as I shot Gabe a mischievous glance. “Is there anyone here you’re interested in?” Leo swallows his food and licks his fingers. His shoulders shake as he chuckles and he levels me with one of his cocky smirks.
“I don’t know if deep throating my sandwich didn’t make it obvious,” Leo said. “Or the clear fuck me eyes I was giving Gabe while I did it but I’m more than interested in your best friend. He’s on my radar and I’ve honed it on him.”
Before my jaw can drop or I can have a reaction, the front door swings open and all three heads turn. A woman I didn’t recognize walked in first and behind her walked in a child. He’s got blonde hair, tanned skin, and long eyelashes that fanned his cheeks.
I didn’t need to rack my brain to remember who he was. I instantly remembered him as the child I saved. Seeing him brought me back to the first week or two after I came to Desert Moon. A rogue attack had taken place and I remember not being able to stay still. I made my way to the daycare when I found out where the attack had taken place.
The woman stopped behind the cart and bowed to me. I gave her a curt nod but couldn’t stop staring at the little boy by her side. The little boy looked up at me before looking at Gabe. I hear Gabe gasp but I don’t have to ask him why. I look at my best friend, his eyes are wide and his lips are parted. The little boy looks back at me.. The gray eyes that stare back at us belong to Olivia.
