It was a rare occurrence during Adrian's one-month return, even when Shaga's heat after five years without Adrian was still unrelenting, he never relented in asking Adrian to make love to him. Adrian acknowledged his admiration for everything about Shaga, how when most other Omegas would curl up anywhere and ask any available Alpha to sleep with them, Shaga could make beef soup and a bowl of chocolate ice cream for himself. He did it all with potent pheromones saturating Adrian's senses. In the end, it was Adrian who couldn't resist.
