HIS SECOND MATE

Chapter 7

*spend a little more time trying to make something of yourself and a little less time trying to impress people -the Breakfast Club*

Chapter 7

Marcus had been to excited at work to sit still at work a date was waiting for him, truth is he had left work earlier drove around Gregory's building. It was even a miracle he had not been flagged down the police.

Was it because of the intensity of the mate bond or was it the thrill of having something new in his life? He had never heard of same s*x mates before the idea did shock him but he was not repulsed by it.

1 o'clock on the hour there he was standing in the lobby, Johansen Association written in huge bold letters above the receptionist desks. He realized that Gregory was a man that loved to flaunt his power and dominance.

Marcus had been looking around taking in the decor to take in the looks of ridicule and disgust from Gregory's employees then he heard them

What is this loser doing here?

Could he have come here for revenge?

Hahahaha! Coward! Funny! Spineless

Did you see him run away on Saturday? That was hilarious, he looked like a wounded dog.

Suddenly it was like morning again, people making fun of him right in his face. Would he ever live that incident down? Five years down the line would people still look at him and think of him as a spineless coward?

With his wolf's super hearing he could tell when exactly the receptionist had placed that call informing all the other floors of his presence then the talks became louder, more amplified. It was getting louder like they were taunting him. 

Baiting him to get a reaction, to say he was not getting affected by it would be a lie he was just very good at not letting his emotions show on his face. He had to be, characteristics of a good alpha besides going off on Gregory's employees would make he look worse than he already was?

He could smell Gregory from where he was but his scent was not getting any closer meaning he was not moving, part of him was tempted to sniff him out and go to where he was but that would just add creepy weirdo to to his already horrible list of insults.

Ahh, then he smelled it there it was that addictive scent he was almost drooling , took him all he had in him to not rush upstairs for him. 

Then he heard him asking the employees not to talk badly about his guest Marcus could not help but be thrilled, yes they were mates now and were somewhat in good terms but Marcus was not sure how exactly good it was.

He had been scared Gregory would not show up even though the man had practically begged for the meeting. In the back of his mind he had that tiny fear of it being a prank and himself getting even more humiliated.

Nobody could blame him though, Rome was not built in a day after all and even thought it felt like they were taking things a little too fast Marcus still had reservations but that would not stop him from enjoying the thrill of a new 'relationship,

Gregory had given Marcus a billion dollar smile when he got downstairs

Marcus

If I thought Gregory looked absolutely good the first time I laid my eyes on him then today was many times more. He looked drop dead gorgeous, I am not sure if these were the right adjectives used to describe a man but I was awestruck

The brilliant smile on his face, at least I was sure he was excited to see me as I was him, I gave him a big smile on my own.

"Since when are they friends, I thought they hated each other?" several voices raised the same question at the same time. I could hear the confusion in the voice of his employees. Their boss had made me the country's laughing stock on Saturday and Monday afternoon we were smiling at each other like long lost friends, even I would be confused if I did not know the truth.

"Does Mr. Harvey have a humiliation kink?" I choked on my own spit when I heard that one, no matter how low they had tried to speak to me it was as clear as day. Sounded like she had spoken right beside my ear. Now where hell did that come from?! Damn super hearing! I did not need to hear that! Some times I just wish I was able to turn it off.

I had several kinks but humiliation? No! That just wasn't it. I honestly found it very degrading but now that talk about kinks ha me thinking about what I could do to Gregory.

Focus Marcus! Focus! Now is not the time to turn into a horny teenager. Chop! Chop! Now stop looking at the man  like you want to eat him and go find actual food I can hear his stomach rumbling from here. My wolf was getting impatient!

I could not really blame him, I was as excited as him to get to spend time with our mate.

"Sir, I think you've got some drool over there," oh s**t! I reached out to wipe the side of my mouth only to find it dry.

"Tease!" Gregory was teasing me, he had a playful cheeky side. Who would have known? Certainly not me, To me Gregory was a scheming conniving man 

ouch!  calm down Selene even you know its true! Stop with the pain, I wasn't going to do anything to him just stating my observation woman. She was becoming a real pain in the rare.

"Are we leaving anytime soon?" someone really wanted my company! He was probably more excited about the date than me from the look of thing which made me even more excited, to think that I had been scared it would be a prank.

Then I make the boldest move ever, I offered him my hand. We weren't in second grade where holding hands was a big deal but for us it was a huge step.

Two men, enemies holding hands in public.

Would he take it?
