Being told to sit had Alan scowling as he didn’t like being told what to do right now not when he JUST got back to work but the reply had him on edge as he was now deeply in tune with his omega. It actually unnerved him how much so... then Nate spilled the beans on what exactly was going on. His whole body stiffened and he wanted to go rip Lance’s face off and beat him to a pulp but right now he knew the priority was the fragile man that was going to face one of his biggest fears and the man who assaulted him. He didn’t hesitated to move to wrap his arms around Nate.<br/><br/>He pulled the omega close not caring who in the office saw. “I swore to protect you from him and that wasn’t just a lie to get into your pants.” He murmured letting Nate do whatever he needed with the privacy of his office. “It doesn’t matter if he is half a world away or in the same room I won’t let that bastard hurt you.” He admitted already thinking about ways to get at Lance but it would take time and a full frontal assault would do no good right now. “Come on. I will take you home...” he didn’t care they had missed office hours but right now getting Nate calm and away from Lyle was top priority.
