Chase had to say this the right way to make Sammy understand—to make him stop hating Auston so much.

“It’s not my place to share everything, but Auston had a kind of…

really shitty relationship in the past that involved someone who hid their scent.

He thought my fake pheromones was me being deceptive, and it just triggered some stuff in him that had him lashing out. ”

“Oh, well, if he was triggered , I guess he can do whatever he wants.”

“It’s not—this was serious stuff. And it’s not like he’s okay with what he did. It’s not just that he’s apologised…he’s been so good to me, Sammy, I promise you.”

“Good how, exactly?”

“He just…every time I do that thing you hate where I say something mean about myself? He never lets me get away with it. He always points out the good stuff in me, and treats me like…I don’t know. Like what I say matters? What I do matters?”

“Well, that’s because you matter, you idiot.”

Chase laughed. “Well…I’m getting that. And he’s also had moments where I take care of him , so it’s not just like he’s ‘Daddy’ all the time.”

“Oh, my God.” Sammy covered his face. “I’d forgotten about the Daddy thing. You call Auston Daddy .”

Chase felt himself flush to the roots of his hair. “It’s…shut up!”

Sammy giggled. “Holy shit. Nah, man, I love it for you. Truly.” The amusement drained away from his face, expression sobering.

“Look. I can’t say he’s my favourite person in the world, but I trust you.

Like—obviously I’m going to cut his balls off if he hurts you.

But if you trust him, if he makes you happy… ”

“He does . He really, really does.”

“Okay. But…if you ever get even the slightest gut feeling about him starting to be an ass again, can you tell me? I swear I won’t make a big deal about it or, like, tell you to break up with him the first time he messes up. I just…”

Chase’s whole chest tightened at the concern and love in Sammy’s voice. “I will. Promise.”

Sammy held his pinkie out and Chase linked it with his. When they broke apart, Sammy was smiling wryly. “You’re happy, then? For real?”

“Yeah. I think…I really am.”

***

Chase went to Auston’s after Sammy left, and Auston opened the door with a smile.

“Hey, baby.”

“Hi, Daddy,” Chase replied, a shiver going through him at the sharp hook of Auston’s happiness, the way his eyes sparked at the name.

Auston got him a glass of water, something he always did the instant Chase arrived, and they settled on the couch, Chase cuddling in close as Auston wrapped his arm around him.

Auston gave him a squeeze. “It go okay? Not exactly my biggest fan, that one.”

“Yeah, it went fine. He just worries, you know? But I told him I was fine. Better than fine.”

Auston hummed. “He has a point. I never should have treated you like that, so.”

Chase wiggled until he could meet Auston eyes. “We’re not the first two teammates to not get along, Daddy. It wasn’t that bad.”

“It wasn’t about just being teammates. I’m a veteran. You’re a rookie. There’s no fucking reason to go that hard.”

“It’s fine .”

Auston pulled away so they could look at each other properly. “It’s not fine. I’m not gonna talk like that to you ever again, and if I do, you have my permission to knock me out.”

Chase rolled his eyes. “I’m not gonna hit you. That’s insane.”

“Well, then, sic Sammy on me. He’ll get the job done.”

Chase laughed, imagining it. Despite Auston’s bigger size, Sammy was scrappy as fuck—he wouldn’t be surprised if he somehow got the better of Auston in a fight. “Fine.”

They curled up together, Chase leaning against Auston’s side and the Alpha rubbing up and down his flank. “How did you get my hoodie, anyway?”

“Oh…I just kind of grabbed it from your couch? Sorry. I should have asked permission. Or, you know, not worn it in public.”

“It’s fine. Any reason in particular you grabbed it, though?”

Chase shrugged. “I dunno. I just…wanted to wear it. I liked that it was yours.”

Auston’s fingers sank into his hair, pulling lightly, a reward. Chase felt the skin on the nape of his neck prickle, fingers tingling.

His body came alive every time Auston touched it, a flower seeking sunlight.

“Wish I’d seen it,” Auston murmured. Chase grinned, slotting that away as something that would get the Alpha going.

Chase shuffled closer. Silence blanketed them for a little while before something bubbled up in him, festering since his conversation with Sammy. “So, um…are we going out officially? Like…exclusively?”

Auston stiffened, but when he turned to watch Chase, his expression hadn’t dropped into something annoyed. “Is that something you want?”

“I asked you first,” Chase huffed.

Auston snorted. “It’s definitely something I’d like. I just want you to be sure—”

“I’m sure,” Chase blurted, and then, slower, “I’m sure, Daddy.”

Auston tilted Chase’s face up and caught his lips in a slow kiss that went from sweet to dirty in an instant, tongues brushing together, Chase opening up eagerly.

Chase was dizzy when they parted, heart pulsing everywhere. He licked his lips, feeling bold. “So I wouldn’t be able to flirt with other Alphas.”

Auston raised his eyebrows. “Do you want to flirt with other Alphas?”

“No, but…if I did. That would be disrespectful, wouldn’t it?”

Auston’s eyes narrowed as he hummed thoughtfully. “I guess I’d have to take you in hand if that happened, wouldn’t I? Teach you how to behave?”

Chase’s breath came in short, making his chest tight in the best way. He squirmed at the thought of it, Auston—

Chase yelped as Auston suddenly pushed them to the middle of the couch and pulled Chase down so he was lying sideways on his lap.

“ Daddy! ” Chase protested loudly, kicking out, but he stilled as Auston grabbed his ass roughly.

“You still thinking about those other Alphas?”

A shiver of the sweetest version of fear trembled up Chase’s spine. “No,” he replied meekly.

“No? You seemed real eager to flirt with them a second ago.”

“No, Daddy. I was just asking.”

“Really? Because I don’t think you were ‘just asking.’ I think you were imagining. And if you want it that bad…”

Chase gasped as Auston’s hand smacked his sweats-covered ass, hard . The sting lingered, body suddenly on full alert. “ Daddy ,” he cried out, dick fattening in his briefs as Auston hit him again.

Fuck . His body was spinning out of control, face buried in his arms as heat flared deep inside him.

“Stop that,” Auston ordered, slamming his hand down again, the sharp hurt of it taking over for a moment. It was only then that he noticed he’d been rubbing his now fully hard cock against Auston’s thighs.

He fell still, breathing hard.

“You think you deserve to get off?”

Chase didn’t reply, whining when Auston spanked him again.

“I asked you a question.”

“No, Daddy.”

Auston hummed, sounding so calm it shook Chase even harder, how he was falling apart and Auston didn’t seem affected at all. “No. You didn’t actually think you could talk about letting other Alphas have you, and I’d just give you what you want.”

“That’s not—” Chase choked as Auston stuffed three fingers into his mouth.

Fuck . Chase’s body was gonna burn up, was going to explode with this feeling inside him, so big he wouldn’t be able to contain it, cock twitching pathetically in his sweats.

“Look at you. So knot-hungry you’d go with anyone.”

Chase kicked his legs in protest, whining even as he sucked Auston’s fingers desperately.

“No? That just for me?”

Chase nodded as well as he could and felt Auston lean over him, the Alpha’s breath on his ear.

“Because you’re all mine, aren’t you?”

Chase nodded frantically, trying to say ‘Yes, Daddy’, around the obstruction in his mouth.

Auston tilted Chase’s head and kissed him on the cheek softly. Just like that, the fingers were out of his mouth and he was being flipped into a sitting position beside Auston, sore ass flaring.

Chase blinked dizzily as Auston leaned forwards to grab the remote and then sat back, arm over Chase’s shoulder.

“Let’s watch something.”

Chase gaped. His cock was throbbing , the seat of his briefs sticky with slick. “Daddy—”

“Nope,” Auston said without even looking at him. “You want to be a brat, I’ll treat you like a brat.”

Chase couldn’t close his mouth. “I can’t believe how mean you are,” he complained, flopping against Auston.

“Yes, you can.” The Alpha laughed.

Chase was squirmy and desperate the rest of the night, plastering himself onto Auston the moment they made it to bed, hand sliding down Auston’s stomach.

“Nope,” Auston said, picking Chase’s hand up and away from his body.

Chase sat up, leaning against his heels, face flushing. “You can’t seriously…come on . I can just blow you, okay?”

Auston chuckled. “No, thanks.”

Chase gritted his teeth. The fucking audacity of this man. “Fine. Then I’ll just go home.”

Auston snorted loudly, hands behind his head, biceps bulging. They locked gazes, Auston’s eyes filled with amusement.

“I fucking hate you,” Chase proclaimed as he slipped under the sheets.

Auston hummed noncommittally, pulling Chase in.

Chase didn’t even have the self-respect to push him away. His skin was on fire, dick half-hard, ass still stinging lightly. God, he’d never been so desperate to come.

“I’m gonna get you back,” Chase muttered into Auston’s bare chest.

“Sure, baby,” Auston replied.

The nonchalance just made him angrier. “I am . You just wait.”

Auston’s laugh rumbled through him, the absolute jerk.
