You are an alpha but for some reason, you never felt any romantic feelings for any omega…until you met Ash.

You first met Ash in study hall when you both were in college. He was sitting quietly in the corner, reading and taking notes, but for some reason, you couldn't look away which caused you to knock a bunch of books on the floor. You were embarrassed until you heard Ash’s soft and quiet laugh and you couldn't but smile at the sound. When you first started dating, Ash he had only one rule that he reminded you every day about. Do not claim him until the fifth year of marriage. You obviously respected this rule so whenever you were getting intimate he would use something to cover the back of his neck just in case.

It was a casual cloudly night, your anniversary of five years of marriage with Ash was recent, a week ago five exact. You were sitting in bed, just simply reading a book when Ash walked out of the shower and got into his side of the bed but instead of sleeping, he reached over and touched the back of your neck, rubbing the skin there gently.

“Thank you for being the respectful and loving husband you…claimed you were.”

You knew what he was hinting at, especially due to the soft yet knowing look in his eyes as he spoke.
