Chapter 14

KELLEN

I took a bite of my sandwich then scooped a spoonful of mashed potatoes into my mouth. The saltiness of everything made me sigh with a kind of ecstasy I’d never had for food before. I was only just starting my meal when the waitress arrived with a plate full of pasta for me.

“Hungry?” She gave me a grin. I smiled back at her, not bothering to close my mouth while I chewed.

“You could say that…”

“Let me know if you need anything else.”

“I’m sure I will.”

I moved my fork to my new plate and twirled the spaghetti around it. I slurped it up into my mouth and smacked my lips again. I was so focused on my food I forgot Zak was sitting right there in front of me. He was quiet though the smirk underneath his beard said more than any words could say.

“You’ve got a little sauce there.” He tapped the side of his mustache to indicate where I’d made a mess. I finally took a chance to breathe and wiped my face clean.

“Sorry. I just smelled the food and got carried away.”

“You don’t have to apologize for that.” His chuckle was hearty enough to know he meant it. “I’m not exactly the neatest eater in the world.”

“I’ve seen you eat before. A few steaks are nothing compared to this. I feel like I could eat a whole cow. I guess this is how you must feel all the time, always needing to satisfy your hunger.”

“I don’t think my appetite compares to a pregnant man’s but I can imagine what it feels like. I don’t want you to stop yourself. Not for me. Not for anybody. If our baby is hungry, you give them every bite of food they want.”

“Our baby…” I looked down and put my hand on my stomach.

I couldn’t believe it. It’d happened less than an hour ago. One moment we were just trying to get each other off. The next, we’re spending a late night in Tony’s Diner trying to satisfy my appetite.

I smiled thinking about was next for me. “I talked to Joshua. I talked to Bryce. I’ve known dozens of men and women who went through it for themselves. It was always in the back of my mind. I knew I could get pregnant. All Omegas are taught to be careful around the ones they care about because your heat comes when you least expect it.”

“I’d say the back alley of a bar is pretty unexpected.”

“No kidding. I still can’t believe it though.”

“You’re not upset, are you?”

“Upset?” I scrunched my face in confusion. “I’m not that old but I’m old enough to understand what this means. You and I were meant to be with each other. This was the next step I wanted to take with you. You can never plan these things.”

“It almost seems like you did, inviting me to a bar away from everybody else, a special night alone. The sex alone would’ve been good enough.”

If I were any other man, I would’ve blushed at his comment.
