Caged Between the beta & alpha

I hated myself for this, I hated how I was making him feel.

He was no less a man than Liam.

did not deserve this.
Liam walked out, giving Damon a curt nod and shutting the door behind him.
“Hey, how are you feeling?” Damon asked, about to place the gorgeous bouquet of purple flowers down when I reached out and took them.
“I’m great and these are beautiful!” I said, looking up at him.
I’m such a horrible person…
He bent down, wrapping his arms around me tightly.

I hugged him back, his comforting scent and those tingles rushing through me.

I could hear his racing heart and the guilt inside of me only grew.

I glanced at Aunty Red, seeing the sadness in her eyes too, before she looked away, smoothly busying herself with Azura’s hair.
Damon moved back and jerked his thumb at the paper bag.
“I brought you breakfast.” He said, turning to Azura and raising his eyebrows playfully before flashing her one of his dazzling smiles.
“What breakfast is it?” Azura asked, curiously staring at the bag that I just picked up.
“You’ve eaten baby.” Aunty Red said, cuddling her.
“Of course, she can eat again, there’s plenty.” Damon said and I nodded.
“You look tired.” I said to him concerned as I unboxed the food.
Chicken sandwiches, yoghurts and a box of freshly cut fruit.

Azura took the box of fruit and Aunty Red shook her head, settling back and helping her remove the lid.
“I’m not too bad.” He said.

“I asked someone to bring you a drink.”

“Thanks, Damon.” I said softly.
Aunty Red asked him something as I bit into a sandwich.
