Chapter 14

A spis

This day has been a whirlwind.

I was so relieved this morning after the coffee with Matilda. It was obviously soured by my interaction with Ivy, but knowing that Matilda was going to try to make this work meant so much.

Having her in my arms right now feels like a dream. I’m enveloped in her fresh, morning dew scent, her warmth pressed against me. Gently, I shift us onto my back so that I can run my fingers through her hair. She makes a mewling sound in her sleep at the affection.

I am so deeply satisfied to have her here, resting with me. I just wish it wasn’t soured by Ivy’s absence. If she was tucked in on my other side I would simply melt away into my contentment.

I nearly chuckle at the thought of Ivy like that, but I hold it in to not disturb Matilda. No, Ivy will be a little brat, and an exciting challenge. I will need to wear her out before she will snuggle up with me like that, I think. I can never decide if I prefer a bratty sub or a good girl in the bedroom. It seems as though I don’t have to decide, I can tell that Matilda is going to be such a good girl for me.

She’s going through so many emotions today, and at her base level she knew to come to me to seek comfort. It definitely fluffs up my pride a bit to know that she came to me. It’s sad that she needed to.

Her small studio apartment is adorable, and exactly what I would expect from an Omega living alone. She’s surrounded by all of her favorite things, trinkets lining the walls on purpose built shelves.

There is a sewing table next to the bed and remnants of fabric strewn about in a pile. From what it looks like, she has made all the quilts that we are currently surrounded by. It’s a cute hobby for her, and with the way it is set up she can comfortably work from the bed.

My mate is adorable.
