Middle Child Syndrome - Chapter 410
Chapter 410: Ch 410: Jealous Actions
“You look awkward. You are not used to being this courteous, right? I can tell just by how tense you are right now.’
Rika almost giggled at Damian’s actions and how he held himself.
It made him stiffer even more, but he did not sigh to indicate that he was still affected by what she said.
Rika did not push him to show more emotion either as she took his extended hand and clasped it tightly.
The fast-food chain had no traffic this late at night. There were only a few employees, and Rika quickly ordered fries, a drink, and a burger.
It was time for them to wait, and Rika noticed how a lot of people mostly omegas) were eying her partner with a dreamy look on their faces.
But no one approached the pair because Rika was there.
‘I wonder if these people would try to talk to Damian if I am not here. Now I want to see this. I don’t think Damian will give them time to speak with him. But it still makes me curious about how he would act.’
Rika had seen how Damian behaved with Emily.
Half the time, it seemed Damian did not even care if Emily talked to him. He was a master at ignoring her and the others who did not want to talk to him.
And it made her wonder how Damian would behave with a stranger.
When her order number was called, Rika stood up and got it. Damian also got up, but Rika stopped him.
“You can wait here for now. I will go and bring our food back. Don’t give me that look! I am a fully grown adult. I can go and grab our food from the counter just fine.”
Rika stopped Damian before he could comment on anything. She felt she would feel annoyed if she let Damian speak now.
The older alpha stopped himself from commenting, but it was clear that he still had a lot he wanted to say.
Without missing a beat, Rika got up and skipped toward the counter for her order.
As soon as she was gone, the hyenas…she meant, the omegas eying Damian quickly approached him.
About a dozen people were simultaneously trying to get his attention, and Damian looked miserable sitting between them.
‘Somehow, Damian looks even more pitiful than I expected. I know I should not be giggling, but I cannot help myself. He looks so cute like this.’
Rika suppressed her laugh as she approached the front of the line and grabbed her order.
She was so busy looking at Damian that she did not even notice that her server was an alpha who had been eying her since she stepped into this establishment.
“Poor you! I feel so bad for you for having such a popular partner. It looks like he gets hit on a lot by people constantly. Don’t you feel sorry for yourself?”
The alpha at the counter asked, suddenly grabbing Rika’s attention as he placed the food in front of her.
Something about his eyes and how he spoke set alarm bells ringing in Rika’s head.
She did not like the way this alpha looked at her.
“Ah, I don’t mind Damian being this popular. I love him regardless of how he looks and acts. I am happy that he is so popular. Now, if you would give me what I ordered so I can head back now, I would be grateful…”
Rika grabbed her food, but the alpha was faster than her, so he grabbed Rika’s hand.
“Oh, come on! I know omega like you. You just pretend you are fine with your partner being so popular, but you don’t want to be with such a popular person, right? I can see it all in your eyes.
You can’t bring yourself to turn down your partner because he’s leagues above you. But the pressure is also too much to keep up with. But don’t worry! I can help you out. How about you break up with your boyfriend and give me a chance? I will never-”
Rika grabbed the wrist, holding her hand, and twisted it to let this man let go of her.

She wanted to be freed before Damian could kill this man.
Luckily (for the man), Rika managed to free herself before Damian could come over and kill this server for her.
“We’re leaving here. Next time, we both go and get the food in line. Or better yet, we will come here with Emily so this doesn’t happen.”
Damian looked pissed off, and Rika had a feeling that this chain would be unemployed by tomorrow.
It made Rika feel bad since she had caused this to happen. She had not meant to get these employees fired (except one).
“Dami, don’t touch this place. I know that you are pissed off, but I would like to come to the drive-through sometime and get some fries on the go.”
Rika off-handily commented, but she knew that Damian would take it seriously. She was beginning to figure out Damian and how to get him to think like she did.
She heard him grunt before he sighed and decided to calm down.
The crisis had been averted for now.
But Rika was in even bigger trouble for now. Damian pulled Rika’s hand closer to face and took a sniff.
His eyes went enraged, and he looked ready to kill someone and eat Rika alive at the same time.
“That guy left his scent on you. I don’t like it. I must remove it and mark you with my scent right now.”
Damian let out a possessive growl before he grabbed Rika’s hand and licked across her outer hand.
Rika’s senses felt like they were tingling. She wanted to pull her hand back, but it felt like she could not pull her hand back. Her senses felt like they were being overwhelmed by Damian’s scent.
“Y-You can stop now! Dami! I…this feels weird. Please stop!”
The alpha gave Rika only one word in response to her begging.
“No”
