(Oohh... the drama when that happens. I can imagine Elliot feeling very betrayed and struggling on not having his mate help him anymore.)
Elliot was at first reluctant to believe that Alex was then really alright. The scent became less intimidating and was replaced by a much gentler one but still it was doubtful especially when the mood change seemed sudden. But maybe he just ought to have faith that his mate was sincere on his apology and that he didn't really mean to make him feel that way. He thought he'd test his waters.
"I-it's alright... I'd tell you, if I feel anything off." the voice wasn't confident, not knowing if it would trigger another negative response from the alpha. At the offer of more food, Elliot blushed but nodded. He was still feeling hungry after finishing what had been given to him. He was just too scared to ask for more earlier.
So they had their refill and when they came out of the room, he could be seen munching from a plate full of crackers. But just as the supervisor and his mate went out, an angry employee of higher position to him came and was looking very annoyed. "Elliot! You were called to fix a problem and you should be fixing it already! Not here eating like a pig! Should I remind you that you are the supervisor of this event? Act like it." Elliot put down the cracker he was munching on back to the plate feeling guilty. Alex was trying his best to cheer the omega up and encouraging him to just continue eating when the higher up sneered at the alpha also.
"You're his mate, right? You should be supporting him on being a good supervisor rather than influencing him to slack off." Elliot just bowed his head. The hormones were playing on him and he felt like crying.
"I'm sorry, ma'am. We're sorry. I-I'll get the problem fixed...right away." He was almost pulling his mate to the direction where they needed to be, not wanting that he will be seen as weak if ever his tears betray him and fall.
