“Yes,” I snap, aggressively fluffing the pillows. “I told you that last night.”
Why does he have to smell so good?
My dick is so hard right now it practically hurts, and I haven’t stopped perfuming. If he gets any closer I’m going to start slicking at an embarrassing rate, and then I’ll end up with blue balls and an even shittier attitude.
“Did you make me a list?”
I spin to face him again, whipping around so fast I almost lose my balance.
“Of course I made you a list. It was my idea to make you a list. Why do you think I’d send you to the store without a goddamn list?”
“Tav, baby,” Bentley says softly as he closes the space between us. “What is going on with you?”
I blow out a breath and drop my forehead to the center of his chest. “I don’t fucking know. I want to strangle you, and I want to fuck you, and there’s a pretty big part of me that wants to do both at the same time, and it’s making me very cranky.”
Bentley wraps his arms around me and starts slowly rubbing my back. “I can see that.”
“Oh good. Gold star for you.”
“Tav,” he snorts and presses a kiss to the top of my head. “Where’s your nest?”
“I don’t have one,” I grunt as I slightly adjust so I can rub my cheek against his naked chest. “I’ve never had one. I don’twant one. I don’t like being an omega so I don’t like doing omega things.”
Bentley chuckles and despite the way it currently sounds like nails on a chalkboard, I push my face harder against him and breathe deeply as he says, “I think that’s your problem.”
“I have a lot of those but lack of a nest is not one.”
“Baby,” my alpha grunts as I slide my free hand over his sides and up his back. “You might have been able to get away withnotdoing omega things before, but you won’t be able to much longer. We’re matched, sweetheart, and that changes everything.”
“Everything except how often I’m getting laid.”
Bentley barks out a laugh and cups my cheeks, tilting my head so I’m looking up at him. “Patience isn’t really your virtue, huh?”
I smile in spite of myself as he dips his chin and presses a sweet kiss to my lips. “I’m virtueless, Bent. I have none of them.”
“And that’s how I like you.” He kisses me again, his lips lingering against mine a little longer before he steps back and gives me a shit eating grin. “But I’m going to build your ornery ass a nest, anyway. I don’t like seeing you drive yourself crazy like this.”
“I don’t want a nest, Bentley. I don’t need…” My words trail off as he drops his towel, flashing me his half-hard cock in all his naked glory as he walks backwards toward the bathroom.
“You don’t need what now?”
“Bentley Walker, you are infuriating,” I growl, my eyes snapping to his as I throw the couch pillow at him. “Absolutely infuriating!”
My alpha cackles his way into the bathroom and as soon as he closes the door, he starts belting out the lyrics toI’m Too Sexyas loud as he can.
That man is definitely infuriating, and I think I’m falling in love with him, anyway.
CHAPTER 16
Bentley
While grumpy Tav is adorable,I love all of his sides. He’s currently rage cleaning as I build his nest, grumbling about the sawdust. I’m not really sure what all he’s grumbling about, as I couldn’t hear him once I started installing the floor of the nest. Everything has nice, clean lines, and I went with a ladder instead of stairs so the animals can’t follow us up.
Hell, I even cut all the wood at the store like a good alpha so I could tone down some of the mess that comes with construction. Either way, it’s moving along really well, and the accent wood I added to the ceiling as minor decorative pieces looks fantastic.
I watched some videos to help me figure out the best way to create his nest, and decided that a loft over his apartment would be best. It’ll be out of Tav’s way, remain functional, and be there when he needs it.
I’m slowly figuring out Tav’s quirks, but they seem to change and multiply so quickly, I always feel as if I’m struggling to keep up. I’m taking every day as it comes, yet it’s hard not to think I’m failing him constantly.
