/THEO/

The next morning, I woke up before my alarm even had the chance to go off. I lay under my duvet for a long time, staring at the ceiling as the events of the previous night replayed in my head.

“Go take a shower, you reek.”

“It’s annoying.”

The words still stung. I bit my inner cheek, a wave of embarrassment washing over me all over again. I had genuinely thought we were making progress. I thought that by keeping the place clean, making him dinner, and respecting his space, he was slowly

  • My Grumpy Roommate Is My Fated Match   CHAPTER 31 - Crossing Lines 2

    /THEO/"I... I just realized how late it is," I stammered. My eyes then landed on something even worse, message notifications.My heart sank into my shoes. The lock screen was flooded with notification alerts. Lorcan had sent me numerous texts over the last two hours, asking where I was and when I was coming back. A sudden wave of irrational fear hit me, and I couldn't even bring myself to open the messages."Let me drive you home right away," Diego offered gently, placing a reassuring hand near my shoulder without crowding me. "Don't stress, okay? We'll get you back in no time."The drive to the apartment building was silent and I felt a bit guilty for ruining the mood.As his car pulled into my apartment building's underground parking lot, I was low-key panicking, clutching my phone tightly in my lap. We got out of the car and he helped me grab my things.“Hey, did you not like our date today?” He rubbed the back of his neck.“What? Why would you think that?” I stared at him confuse

  • My Grumpy Roommate Is My Fated Match   CHAPTER 30 - Crossing Lines 1

    /THEO/On Saturday afternoon, I stood in front of my bedroom mirror, looking at myself for the hundredth time to make sure I looked perfect. I couldn't quite remember the last time I went on a date and I didn't want to recollect when I did go on a date with that scumbag called Andrew.“Thinking of me will only serve as bad omen,” I took deep breaths to ground myself.Once I was done, I stepped out into the hallway, awkwardly. I was somewhat praying that Lorcan was in his room but as my rotten luck will have it, he was sitting in the living room. The moment he heard my footsteps, his eyes drifted up from the screen, scanning my outfit in a way that made my skin prickle."Going somewhere?" he asked, his voice calm.It was a reasonable question. I rarely left the flat during the weekend, especially on Saturdays, so stepping out at 3:00PM wasn't exactly something I'd done since we started living together.My chest tightened, and I caught myself looking at the painting behind him rather th

  • My Grumpy Roommate Is My Fated Match   CHAPTER 29 - I Think I Need Space

    /THEO/Sitting at the back of the car with Fenton driving was awkward. Last time he said he was Lorcan's assistant but what work assistant ran personal errands for their boss? Was this legal? And was Lorcan oppressing him with his position? Those thoughts kept swarming through my head every time I glanced at him.“If there's something you'd like to ask me, go ahead,” Fenton looked at me through the rearview mirror. I must have been staring quite a bit for him to have noticed.“It's not like you'll tell me anyway,” I mumbled. He was extremely professional that it got on my nerves. Even if I wanted to know anything about Lorcan, he wouldn't tell. “It's fine.”Fenton didn't push, shifting his focus back to the road. When we got back to the flat, Lorcan was waiting in the living room, working on his laptop at the glass table. Fenton walked in first, holding the sealed envelope containing my medical report."Here are the test results, Mr. Lorcan," Fenton said, placing the document direct

  • My Grumpy Roommate Is My Fated Match   CHAPTER 28 - I Think I Have Feelings For Him

    /THEO/The happiness and relief I had seeing him had quietly settled down now as we drove back to the flat in awkward silence. Maybe I was just the one who was awkward, rightfully so especially seeing as he hadn't brought up the horrors he'd seen that day. I'd forgotten how embarrassed that situation made me until he was right in front of me again.I stole a glance at Lorcan who had his eyes fixed on the road. Just as I was wondering if I was the only one overthinking things, I couldn't help but notice just how good looking he was, my eyes gradually dropping lower, wondering how his body looked underneath his clothes.“Are you a pervert, Theo? Quit staring,” I yelled at myself in my head. One minute, I was embarrassed and awkward, the next minute I was admiring his looks.“Are you still feeling under the weather?” Lorcan spared me a glance as we approached a traffic light. “My heat ended days ago. Of course, I'm fine,” I held the seat belt tighter, laughing it off awkwardly.“If you

  • My Grumpy Roommate Is My Fated Match   CHAPTER 27 – Unresolved Questions

    /THEO/How many days has it been since I last saw Lorcan? My heat finished a few days back and he was till nowhere to be found.I stared at my computer, my mind all over the place. My phone was sitting right beside my keyboard, face up. Every few minutes, my eyes would dart toward the screen, hoping to see a notification—a text, a missed call, anything from Lorcan.Nothing.I tapped my fingers against the desk, opening our chat history. Our chat was clearly scanty, since we hardly talked over the phone. Lorcan never liked that so we stuck to contacting each other only when necessary.My thumb hovered over the keyboard. I wanted to text him, to ask if he was doing alright or when he would be back, but I held myself back. What if he was still furious? What if my message just pushed him to block my number entirely?I let out a long sigh and leaned back in my chair."Alright, spit it out," Maya's voice cut through my thoughts. She slid her rolling chair over from her desk, leaning her elb

  • My Grumpy Roommate Is My Fated Match   CHAPTER 26 - Mangled Feelings

    /LORCAN/If I hadn't lost my sense of time, today was the final day of my rut. I stared up at the ceiling of my bedroom, my head aching slightly. I rolled onto my side, immediately wincing as a wave of nausea hit me. The sheets were damp, smelling heavily of sweat and my room was covered in my pheromones.“This is hilarious,” I scoffed in disbelief. How was it possible for a recessive Omega’s pheromones to affect me? I wasn't even affected by dominant omegas so how? Was Theo not aware of his actual secondary gender?A light knock came from the door. It opened just enough for Fenton to slip inside, holding a tray with two fresh water bottles, a strip of pain relievers, and a clean towel.“Dr. Nathan stopped by before you woke up,” Fenton informed me. “Your fever is gone now so you should be back to normal even by this evening.”“Did he say why my rut had come about suddenly and erratically like that?” I questioned as I sat at the edge of the bed. There had to be a reason behind this.

    /THEO/“I'll be going on a business meeting for a while,” Lorcan said casually as we ate dinner.“Eh? Why so sudden?” I completely lost interest in my food. “I wouldn't say it's sudden, I'm just telling you now,” Lorcan replied.“You should at least try to sugarcoat your words,” I muttered. “Don't

    /THEO/How I managed to drag myself to work on Friday morning was a miracle. My bed was in the perfect state to have that knockout sleep, it was cold alongside my pillows.“Why do I have to work?” I groaned as I ate breakfast.“Stop whining and eat your food,” Lorcan who just wanted a glass of wate

    /LORCAN/A few days had passed since I had allowed Theo to continue his stay at the apartment but it was about time to go back to work.I adjusted the cuffs of my tailored suit jacket as I stepped out of the executive elevator. For the last three hours, I had been tearing through a budget dispute w

    /THEO/How I woke up on my bed the next morning was still a mystery to me.I distinctly remembered passing out face-down on the kitchen island, with my laptop screen still on. Yet, here I was, tucked neatly under my thick duvet. I checked my neck—no stiffness. I scrambled out of bed and rushed int
