Chapter 172

Todrick went back upstairs to distract Travis by further introducing him to Jake, while Avi took Alex down the hall to speak to him. Alex closed the door behind himself as they both entered Avi's room. Avi stood in front of the bed, facing it. "Come." Alex obeyed, a wide smile on his face. And then Avi spoke once more. "Sit." Alex obeyed again, looking up into Avi's eyes. "Hi! How are you?" "Good." "Oh, good! Did you sleep well, Alpha?" Rather than answering, Avi just stared at him, and realized that if Alex decided to leave... Regardless of how many times Avi had yelled at him, Avi was going to miss him.
