You in my World (Alpha x Omega)

9. (18+) De-nile is a river in Egypt

Awkward silence filled the air as Dhiraj joined Nakul for breakfast. Their actions the previous night made it difficult for both of them to look at each other eye to eye. For Dhiraj it was because he was afraid that Nakul might think he borderline attacked Nakul. While for Nakul it was because he had been going on and on about "not-wanting-an-alpha" but simply couldn't forget the heat he felt because of that alpha's touch. So much for having self-control. I'm an idiot. He cursed himself under the breath. What also was true was that he cannot seem but contemplate about the attraction he felt for the alpha.

He wanted to forget last night, erase every bit of it from his memory. But something about that alpha's eyes, his touch, his words, his pheromones didn't allow Nakul to forget it. And now that he was face to face with Dhiraj, the heat only returned.

Dhiraj on the other hand was on his edge because Nakul seemingly was avoiding his eye contact. Should I bring it up? Apologize? He waited for the right moment but the cook Aunty brought him his breakfast. The plate was placed on the table and the Aunty left. Now's the time. Dhiraj opened his mouth to say something, when Nakul suddenly cut him off.

"The-The dishes Aunty cooks are delicious right?" Nakul pressed on as if wanting to avoid a "specific" topic.

Dhiraj was taken aback. But he could sense from Nakul's body language that he wanted to avoid the topic. Dhiraj chuckled to himself, more in a sense of relief, "Yes. She does." Dhiraj returns to eating, relieved that at least Nakul isn't avoiding him. So he just doesn't want to talk about it. Okay...... That's when Dhiraj's eyes land on Nakul as he sees his mate, chomping on spoonfuls of Pohe (Flattened rice) [A/n: Idk what rich people eat for breakfast👉👈].

He must really like her food, Dhiraj couldn't help but remark as he noticed a small piece of rice stuck on the corner of Nakul's lips. Almost instinctively, Dhiraj extended his hand and removed that piece. Nakul was left wide eyed due to that small unexpected gesture. He kept looking at the alpha, as Dhiraj removed the little piece and put it in his mouth.

A stunned Nakul kept staring at Dhiraj. What did he just do? Dhiraj realized only moments later that his actions left Nakul dumbfounded. Their eyes met and immediately Nakul looked away. But he left an uncontrollable tint of red blush all over his cheeks, ears and even neck.

Now Dhiraj couldn't help but smile teeth to teeth looking at that blush. It was evident that his touch DID in fact made Nakul feel some type of way. He tried to suppress his wide grin but was unsuccessful in doing that.

The rest of the breakfast was spent in silence, as both the parties replayed the event that had just taken place in their mind. Dhiraj was the 1st one to finish. So he got up.

"Uhumm-" He cleared his throat in an attempt to catch Nakul's attention. "So, I'll be back...in the evening."

Nakul awkwardly acknowledged that declaration with a nod, a blush still prevalent on his cheeks along with embarrassment.

Their eyes met once again. And the coy look in Nakul's eyes brought a smile to the alpha's face. "Okay..." He said as he left. But not before giving a wink to his mate, as his charismatic smile only widened.

Red. Nakul was red throughout. He covered his face for wanting to register the absolutely enchanting effect that smile and that wink had on his body, heart and mind.

Nooooo.......I'm not.....No.....I feel nothing.....I'm NOT blushing!!!!

The evening sun was emitting its final golden rays. But it was making the kitty more lazy than ever. Nakul was on his bed, mindlessly scrolling through this phone as he passed his time. Before, during this time he would've been grinding hard at the gym. But now, he was basically not even lifting a finger. He was bored.
