+Chapter 146+

Caspian would like to say that he had already asked a couple of questions that Asher didn't respond to but the atmosphere was too tense for that.

"Is your rut already over?" He asked instead, fighting the urge to get off Asher.

He had thought that things were resolved now but Asher was acting odd.

"You don't want to hit me?" Asher asked with a plaintive expression.

Caspian had a split second where he really considered that, almost convinced that he had lost all the progress that he made with Asher.

"Now I really want to," He grumbled, getting off him.

Asher catching him by his wrist and pulling him back made it hard to keep his upset expression on his face.

"If you want me to be mad at you so bad, I'll be." He threatened but his threat was softened by him reaching for Asher's face.

"I just can't believe I'm getting off so easy," Asher said honestly.

"Don't push it," Caspian glowered, straddling the Alpha.
