Somewhere Only We Know

by Wakahisa D. Manami

And if you have a minute, why don't we go talk about it somewhere only we know? This could be the end of everything; so why don't we go somewhere only we know? Somewhere only we know.

17. Chapter 17

This chapter is Kid's perspective of chapter 25 of IWIHaA.

Warnings for this chapter: Law lies to keep his family life a secret, Kid knows he's not telling the truth, Alpha protectiveness, Alpha/Omega bond

---

Law looks terrible. His eyes are puffy and bloodshot and he's not attempting to hide that he's vulnerable and in pain.

"What happened last night?" Kid asks.

"What do you mean?" Law asks back, looking away.

"You were crying out for me. I could hear it."

"I had an argument with my uncle, and he said something that hurt me."

Kid can tell it's not the entire truth, but he doesn't mention it as he wraps his bonded in a tight embrace. Law whimpers faintly as he wraps his arms around the Alpha's neck and clings to him like a lifeline, pressing his face into his shoulder. Kid can't help but growl as he laps at Law's bonding gland and then bites gently, making the Omega sigh and sag against him.
