Damion's Point Of View

********

I didn't finish my call on time as I thought I would because I had a conference meeting also. And by the time I was done and checked the time, it was already 4:30pm. Shit! Jane must have been waiting for me by now. I can't believe time has gone like that. I shut my laptop down and stood up from the chair and headed out of the library.

I walked into the living room and there he was, sitting on the sofa watching television. He must have sensed me when I entered because he looked up from the television he was watching and smiled at me, and I was almost melted by his smile. He had the most beautiful smile I've ever seen.

"Hey, I'm so sorry for keeping waiting. I just had to attend to an urgent matter". I said

"No problem, I just got here myself. I was even thinking I had kept you waiting". He said while I sat down on the sofa across from him.

"Hmmmmm.... you must have had one hell of a long shower then". I said smiling.

"No, I didn't spend much time bathing. I just had to return my mom's calls because she had called me countless times and I miss them". He said.

" OK, hope all is well? She must be worried you're not back home yet."

"Yeah, all is well, and she's not here." He stated.

"I thought you said you moved here". I asked surprise.

"Yeah, I moved here alone. My parents are back home". He said.

"Hmmm, why did you move here then?". I asked

"Nothing, I just wanted to change my surroundings. You know, I've been in Kansas my whole life and I felt like I needed a change". He replied to me

"Yeah, I understand that feeling. But why did you choose California, or was it chosen for you by your parents?

"No, I chose this place myself. I don't really know why though, I just felt as if something here was calling out to me".

I was about to comment on his response when I remembered that we were yet to eat.

"Oh! I totally forgot about the food. Sorry, let's go and eat". I said to him and stood up.

He stood up from the sofa and I led him towards the dining area. I pulled out a chair for him to sit on, while I sat across from him. I could have sat anywhere else but the truth is I just wanted to continue looking at his face while we were eating.

I served him the food and served myself also. We started eating and instead of me eating, all I did was watch him eat. When he looked up from his food, he noticed I'd barely even touched my food.

"Why aren't you eating, or aren't you hungry?". He asked, surprised.

"Hmmmmm? no I'll eat". I said, trying to hide the lust in my eyes.

"WOw... I must confess this food is absolutely delicious. Where did you get it from? Because I'd like to go there myself. He commented, while smiling brightly.

My heart skipped seeing him smile like that. Gosh.....! this guy doesn't have any idea of what his smiles do to me.

"I didn't buy it, I cooked it myself". I stated with a smile.

"What?.... You aren't serious, right? Please tell me you are joking right now". He said with a surprise look on his face.

"No, I'm not joking. I really cooked it myself". I affirmated.

"Wow. You really do know how to cook, more than some women, if I must say. It's really delicious'. He complemented.

"Thank you for the compliment and also for enjoying the food". I said with a smile.

"I should be the one thanking you. Because I have been nothing but a burden to you since we met and you've done nothing but take care of me since morning, even though we barely knew each other. So thank you Damion".

"No Jane, you are not and will never be a burden to me. And you're welcome but it's my pleasure doing it". I said as I met his gaze, but he avoided my gaze, but not before I saw him blushing.

"Thanks". He said again.

We finished eating in silence and when we were done, we cleared the table together and he offered to clean the dishes, but I stopped him. I told him he shouldn't stress himself for now as he needs all the rest he can get. Reluctantly, he sat on the chair in the kitchen watching me while I cleaned the dishes. I could feel his gaze on me while I was cleaning them, but I tried not to turn back.

"So how long have you been here, and how has this place been treating you so far?". I asked.

"I've been here for two(2) weeks. I've been okay with what I've seen so far. Though I haven't gotten the chance to go out more because I've been trying to settle down coupled with the whole paper work for school?". He said and signed.

"Okay, too bad we can't go out again today". I mentioned .

"Why?". He asked.

"Because you are not in a position to go out". I replied.

"Is it because of my heat? But I'm OK now. So we can still go out before it gets dark." he said, whining.

"No, you can't go. It's dangerous for you and for any alphas/betas out there. If you suddenly start experiencing it again, the pheromones coming from you will affect them if they are nearby and it will put you in danger because you'll be vulnerable too". I stated and I hope he'll understand.

I know, but I have the suppressant you got for me earlier and, moreover, I won't be alone because you'll be with me. Right?. He said and pouted his mouth, which made me almost agree with him, but I don't want to take any chances.

"Yes, I will be with you, but the risk is still there. We'll go some other time, I promise". I told him pleadingly.

"OK, I guess I should start going home now. It's already getting late". He said and stood up.

"No you can't go home now". I exclaimed.

"But why?". He asked

"Because you can't be alone for now. So you will be staying here tonight so I can keep an eye on you just in case". I explained.

"Okay, but I don't want to keep bothering you. You have really tried for me a lot." He said worriedly.

"No, you are not bothering me, I'm actually happy it's me and not someone else. So you don't have to be worried about it". I said to him with a reassuring smile.

"Okay, then I'll stay". He said, and I felt butterflies flying in my stomach.

"So how are you feeling now?". I inquire

"I'm okay already". He said with a smile.

"What did you mean when you said you haven't had your heat before?". I asked when I remembered what he had said before.

"This is actually my first time experiencing it". He said shyly and I didn't want to pursue the discussion. Because I could see he felt embarrassed about it, so I left it at that.

We sat down silently for some time and I found it awkward. Because all I kept thinking of, was how his lips felt and tasted when I kissed him earlier. I want him so badly that my brain could explode. I was so hard that I thought my dick was gonna rip my pants off and come out. I have never been that aroused before.

Although I have never touched or kissed anyone before, I also have never been attracted to anyone before. I decided to keep myself for my mate. Even though I could go out with anyone until I find my mate, I decided not to. Yeah, so I'm literally a virgin and the kiss earlier was also my first kiss. A lot is running through my mind right now, like how do I tell him he's my mate and what if, after telling him he doesn't want me and rejects me, what will I do then?.

Just the thought of being rejected by him hurts. I have already fallen in love with him, so the thought of him rejecting me as his mate hurts a lot. I don't even want him out of my sight for a minute not to talk of him out of my life. I just can't let that happen.

I looked at him and he's eyes were fixed on the television screen watching a program. I let myself take in his sight and no matter how many times I look at him, he's always more handsome than the last. I saw him look toward me and I lowered my gaze on him.

"So, Damion, tell me about yourself". He said, and I looked back up at him.

"What do you want to know?". I asked.

"Anything you can and want to share". He replied.

"There's nothing much to tell about me, other than I'm Damion Lee". I said.

"Lee, as in Korean". He asked.

"Yes". I responded.

"But you don't look like a Korean. Sorry to say". He said.

"Yeah, I know and I hear that a lot. My mom is an American actually, so I look more like her". I told him.

"Oh okay, so how come you are here and not in Korea or are your parents here?". He inquired curiously.

"I'm the only one here. My parents are back in Korea". I told him.

"Are you just here for school then?". He asked and I could hear a faint sadness in his voice.

"No, I live here". I told him and I saw him smile a little, which made me happy and I smiled too.

"So why are you not there with them?". He asked.

"Nothing, I just want to stay here. I go visiting to see them though". I said and I wasn't expecting what came out of his mouth next. I was so surprised that I thought I was dreaming.

"I think I love you Damion". He blurted out.

  • My Omega Mate   Chapter 77

    Damion’s Point of View (continued)***********The pressure didn’t just touch the bond this time, it traced it not blindly, not curiously but deliberately. Like something running its fingers along a seam, testing where it might split. Valir's presence sharpened instantly inside me, no longer just watchful, alert, coiled, not afraid but not dismissing it either, they are mapping us.The realization came with a cold kind of clarity that settled deep in my chest. Jane's hand brushed mine, barely there, but the contact grounded the current between us, not softer, just steadier, controlled.“They’re not just reaching,” he said under his breath. “They’re learning the structure.”“I know.”And that was the problem. Before, they had reacted to the bond like something foreign. Now they were beginning to understand it.“They’ll try to separate it,” I said quietly. Jane went still beside me.Kael’s voice came low from my other side. “Or replicate it.” That was worse.Because if they could mimic

  • My Omega Mate   Chapter 76

    Damion’s Point of View**********Sleep became a strategy. No one called it that, but that’s what it was. Not rest for recovery, rest for function, timed, rotated, measured in how long someone could afford to let their awareness dip without compromising the whole. I didn't sleep, not fully, I let my body go still at intervals, leaned against the wall just inside the inner line, eyes closed but mind alert. Tracking every shift through the bond like a second pulse beneath my own.Jane stayed close, even though I had tried to persuade him to go back home so he could get some rest, as I didn't want to leave the pack members to be on their own tonight, but he refused to go inside, not without me, and I'm worried about him coupled with him being pregnant and all. But having him here with me, I must confess, keeps me calm.Before, the bond between us had always been strong, something we moved through, relied on, trusted without question. Now, we were aware of it in a different way, like stan

  • My Omega Mate   Chapter 75

    Damion’s Point of View********They didn’t move for a long time after that, not because they were frozen, but because something had shifted so deeply that instinct itself needed to be recalibrated. The kind of silence that followed wasn’t fear, it was processing. Every person there had felt it, that pressure, that wrongness, that awareness pressing against them like something unseen had brushed the edge of their existence and decided to step back for now.I let my gaze move slowly across the compound, taking stock the way I always did after a threat. No one was injured, no one had broken formation, no one had run, good. But their eyes were different now, there was something new in them now, not panic, not even doubt, but understanding. They knew, just like I did, that what we had just faced wasn’t something we could fight the way we fought anything before.“They didn’t leave because we forced them to,” Mara said quietly behind me.I didn’t turn. “No.”“They chose to.”“Yes.” That mat

  • My Omega Mate   Chapter 74

    Damion’s Point of View*********The first thing I understood was this, we were out of time. Not in the frantic, panicked way most people imagined, not in chaos or confusion, but in certainty. There are moments in a leader’s life where instinct sharpens into something else, something cleaner, colder and undeniable. This was one of them, the moment those things stepped from the tree line, whatever fragile balance we had been maintaining between peace and preparation collapsed into something singular. Survival, but not just that, defense, protection and claim.Beside me, Jane didn't move and that, more than anything, grounded me, he wasn't reacting, he was choosing and that meant I could too.“Fall back to the inner line,” I said, my voice carrying without effort, not raised, not strained, just absolute. The pack responded instantly, not because they weren’t afraid, but because they trusted the structure we’d built. The drills, the quiet preparations, the unspoken understanding that one

  • My Omega Mate   Chapter 73

    Jane’s Point of View*********Night didn’t fall the way it used to. Before, it had always come with a kind of finality, a closing of the world, a signal to rest, to retreat, to survive until morning. Darkness meant danger, it meant uncertainty, it meant tightening every sense and trusting nothing but instinct.But here… it was different, not safe, not yet, but different. The compound breathed in the dark, not with the restless unease of something under threat, but with a steady rhythm that spoke of structure, of presence, of something that refused to collapse under pressure. Fires burned low in controlled circles, patrol routes overlapped with quiet precision, voices carried, soft but unafraid: "Alive."I sat on the edge of the outer boundary, just beyond the main cluster of cabins, where the trees began to thicken, and the shadows stretched longer. From here, I could see both sides, our people and theirs. Not merged, not separated, balanced on a knife’s edge.Damion hadn’t tried to

  • My Omega Mate   Chapter 72

    Damion’s Point of View********They didn’t cross the line.Not at first.Even after the woman spoke, after her quiet, deliberate we'd stay settled into the air like something fragile and easily broken—they held their ground just beyond the threshold. Close enough to be seen clearly now. Close enough that I could read their stances, their breathing, the way their weight shifted from foot to foot.But not close enough to belong.Yet.The pack felt it immediately.That shift.Not quite tension. Not quite relief.Something in between.Uncertainty.I didn’t move, not because I didn’t want to, but because movement, right now, meant too much. Every step, every breath, every flicker of expression would be read, interpreted, weighed, judged.Beside me, Jane’s hand remained in mine, steady and warm. No hesitation, no second-guessing, he wasn’t performing, he meant it. And somehow, that mattered more than anything I could say.The woman at the front, their speaker, their anchor watched us close

    Damion’s Point of View**********I woke before the sun crested the trees, not because my instincts jolted me awake, but because something inside me had finally learned the shape of rest.Jane was warm against me, his breathing slow and even, his body curved into mine like it had always belonged th

Just warmth. Steady, surrounding warmth, like being held inside a living
