To be fair though, Brett wasn’t in peak condition since his injury and coming straight to Hayden after a game and also travel.
Brett was quite subjective because he believed that he was still stronger than Hayden physically, Brett was not entirely wrong, because except for the pheromone, his physical strength had gradually improved recently because Brett took him to the gym, if there was a situation that went beyond the limit, he could suppress Hayden, but this situation was out of control because Brett's condition was very bad, this forced Brett to realize that safe-words were really valuable and there was a high possibility that in the future when Hayden's physical strength got stronger, he would be forced to use it more. I wish Hayden could pushing Brett more tbh
Hayden is not like other alphas (that's what reminded me of lmaoo)
Wait wait y’all I don’t think you understand how STRONG Hayden is. Like. I mean literally. Brett is not only a fellow alpha but he’s a trained athlete, an (American) football player at that. And he couldn’t do ANYTHING to over power Hayden in this chapter so he had no choice but to use the safe word. Like bro the author did a good job portraying just how physically powerful Hayden is in this chapter and how “alpha” of an alpha he is (sorry for that cringe description lmfao, didn’t know what else to say)
To be fair though, Brett wasn’t in peak condition since his injury and coming straight to Hayden after a game plus travel.
