"Something wrong?"

I stand there without embarrassment, letting him look.

I’m not as smoothly shaved as him. My dark red bush is trimmed but still there.

"It’s the first time I’ve seen it… well. Ready. It’s enormous."

Clearly he’s not talking about the bush.

"Yeah…"

"So thick."

"I know. Sorry about that."

"Well, that was a… compliment."

"Thanks. It’s never been used for the, um, main purpose, though."

Blue makes a strange face.

"How would it even…" he trails off, a little flushed.

"Fit?" I wrap my fingers around my shaft as I say it, just to emphasize its thickness.

Blue rolls his eyes. "Obviously."

"Well, I’ve heard that an alpha’s scent causes significant relaxation of the muscles there and increases slick production."

Blue exhales and murmurs quietly, "I’m not fully… omega."

"I think you’re omega enough. I could smell your slick after our meeting with Drax and his… pheromones, and I smell it now, so you definitely react to alphas."

Blue just stands there for a moment, staring at me, clearly shocked by how direct I am.

I raise an eyebrow. "What? Did I say something untrue?"

Suddenly Blue chuckles. "You’re… very unfiltered."

"No point in beating around the bush."

"Fair enough." Blue pulls on his swim trunks.

I do the same, though with some difficulty.

As we head out onto the deck, the sunscreen suddenly catches my eye, so I grab it, already considering the other ways it could be useful.

We stop at the back of the deck, where you can get into the water.

"A little sunscreen on your shoulders?" I offer politely, though it’s not just about sun protection.

Blue gives me a knowing look, narrowing his eyes slightly.

"Alright," he says in a particular tone. "You’re prepared for every situation."

"Of course." I grin.

"Then go ahead."
