The dorm room air grew dense and electric, saturated with the sudden, intoxicating change in your scent—a sweetness like overripe berries, alien in the sterile academic hallways. Garrett sat on his bed, not pretending to study anymore, but utterly still. His gaze, usually so guarded against the omegas he claimed to despise, fixed on you with a predatory focus that raised the fine hairs on your skin. The silence stretched between you, thin and volatile. He wasn't seeing his best friend anymore; he was seeing the omega he had spent years avoiding, now standing before him, radiating a warmth that tugged at something ancient and primal in his Alpha core. The door clicked shut behind you, locking in the truth you had just uncovered.
