Yuu cursed Guren to the surface of the sun for the hundredth time that week.
His estranged father, who only took responsibility for him because Yuu's mother
had died last month, was FINALLY deciding to take up the role of parenting. Or
as close to parenting as someone in his position could get. His father worked
for the government, and was gone a lot. Although he didn't know exactly what
Guren did in his job, it was obviously more important to him than raising his
only son. He had left when Yuu was only one years old, leaving his mother with
the burden of juggling work and raising a child by herself. The only evidence
of Guren's existence being the monthly check he sent to Yuu's mother.
Yet now, Yuu was expected to move to Shinjuku with him. He and his mother had
lives hours away in Nagoya. Yuu had grown up there, went to school there, had
friends there. Well...If he could even really call them friends. But Yuu was
reluctant to leave his home town, and had tried negotiating with Guren to let
him stay in his own apartment. But he couldn't be swayed. Yuu was still only
17. He wouldn't be 18 for a few months, and he couldn't legally live without a
guardian until then. Yuu knew he could care for himself. Aside from the fact he
was a bit of a trouble maker, being caught skipping classes and getting into
fights. So he had to comply with Gurens persistence. 'Like really? Now of all
times you decide you want me around?'
He didn't even have his fathers last name. Yuu was named Hyakuya, after his
mothers last name. Guren was an Ichinose. That alone should how been evidence
enough that Guren was a piece of shit.
And he lived up to Yuu's expectations of him. As soon as he crossed the
threshold into his new home, Guren had laid down the ground rules for Yuu to
follow: Be home before 10 on school nights. No TV while studying. No fighting
or skipping classes or their will be serious consequences. Keep grades above a
B average or privileges would be taken. Wash your own laundry. Do your own
dishes.
'Holy shit! Can I at least take my damn shoes off before you start grilling
me?!' Yuu thought.
And last but not least, if he sees anyone acting out of the ordinary or
collapsing from a sudden fever, he was to call and report to Guren immediately.
'Ya ok, whatever that meant.'
Yuu didn't know the details of Gurens job as a government official, but
apparently they searched for people who were a danger to society. Guren called
them 'Anti-betas'. Because everyone who was a normal and efficient human being
were called 'Betas', in the eyes of the government. Why being a 'Beta' was a
thing, he didn't know, but that was what he was called. And he would do his
'Beta duties' to the country or whatever. Yuu really couldn't care less. If
these 'anti-betas' were dangerous, then good riddance!
As Yuu headed out the door for his fist day of school, Guren had followed him
to the door. "Remember what I told you, Hyakuya,"
The bastard wouldn't even refer to him by his first name! Calling Yuu by the
name his mother had given him made a jolt of animosity shoot up Yuu's spine,
tightening the skin at the base of his skull. It was as if Guren were still
disowning him in a way. Not really acknowledging him as his son.
'Fucking dickhead!' Curse number 101.
The past week has been a shit storm of arguments and skull bashing, and for the
first time in his life, Yuu couldn't wait to get to school, just to be away
from Guren.
~
Yuu gaped as he stepped into the school yard. 'Holy Balls!' Sanguinem Academy
was huge! All high tech and sleek with it's steel and glass buildings. This
school must be costing Guren a fortune! Especially with Yuu, who would never be
able to get into a school like this on his own without a scholarship based on
his C grade point average. 'Heh, paybacks a bitch Guren!'
Yuu was only 15 minutes late to class. Considering how spread out this school
was, not to mention confusing, he had made pretty good time. Ms. Sayuri was a
friendly teacher. She wasn't even angry that he was late to class and didn't
belittle him. He appreciated that. His past teachers would berate him until he
was blue in the face. But she was very understanding of his situation.
He greeted his classmates as politely as he could muster. Determined to make
lemonade out of lemons and accept his shitty situation and his new, friendless
status. Not that he had many friends in his old school.
From the corner of his eye, something gold and shining in the morning sun
caught his attention. Glancing in that direction, he noticed the guy sitting in
the third row gazing out the window. He was the only blonde in class. And he
could tell it was a natural color, which combined with his stark azure eyes,
made for a striking contrast among the sea of brunettes. There was a black
armband over his left bicep of the white uniform jacket, indicating his status
as a member of the student council. He was a foreigner perhaps? Yet he had
definitely been at this school long enough to be as popular enough to win votes
for student council.
Coincidentally, the seat beside him was vacant, and Ms. Sayuri indicated for
him to take his seat there. Yuu glanced again at the blond after taking his
designated seat where he would be spending the next 8 months. He apparently
felt Yuu's eyes on him because he gave Yuu a sideways look. His expression
bored and indifferent, before focusing his attention back to his schoolwork.
Hmm...the blond didn't seem outwardly friendly. Yuu wondered why he was a
student council member. Because of his looks? Were people at this school really
so superficial? Besides, wasn't being social and friendly to newcomers kind of
part of his job? Maybe he just didn't like him. Maybe he stunk...
Yuu sniffed his shirt. 'I don't think I stink...'
Yuu felt the soft poke of a pencil on his shoulder blade. He looked behind him
to see who had poked him, about to give them a tongue lashing. He was in no
mood to be fucked with!
Olive green owl eyes met his own emerald ones. "Hey there!" the smaller
brunette boy greeted.
"Hh...hey." 'Oh jeez. The boy was one of THOSE guys.' Yuu thought. The kind
that tried to be all chummy with the new kid to make themselves more popular,
but never intending to be their actual friend. Yuu was accustomed to those
kinds of people. Hell, he WAS one of those kinds of people. At least he used to
be. He really wished he would just be left alone. No matter how cute and
friendly the boy was being.
"It's Yuuichiro right? I'm Yoichi!" This Yoichi smiled brightly. "Its not often
we get new students during senior year." There was a hint of question in his
statement.
"Just call me Yuu. And ya...I had to move from Nagoya for personal family
reasons. Trust me, if I had any say in the matter I wouldn't be here." Yuu
stated bitterly.
There was something unreadable in Yoichi's expression. But he held his
welcoming smile. "Must be rough," he replied. "But if you want, you can sit
with me and my friends during lunch. No pressure of course in case someone else
invites you. But the offer is there." Yoichi said timidly.
"Oh, okay. Thanks I guess." Then Yuu turned back to his desk. Catching the
blond eyeing their exchange with interest.
 
~
 
His classes droned on in a haze. Yuu's previous school wasnt nearly as tough as
this one was. And by time lunch rolled around, his head ached. He rested his
face on the cool desk as the lunch bell rang. A group of students swarmed the
blond guy, confronting him with student council issues or asking him out to
lunch. His warm smile to them made Yuu's breath hitch. He had an amazing smile.
Maybe he was only friendly towards those he knew? He found himself wishing this
guy would smile at him like that...
He noticed the Yoichi boy getting ready to leave. Yuu spared him a glance.
Silently wondering if the lunch invitation was still open.
"So?" Yoichi asked. "You coming?"
"Um, sure." Yuu grabbed his bag and followed Yoichi to the cafeteria. They sat
at an empty table across from each other. Yoichi seeming even more shy all of a
sudden as he dug into his nearly abnormal amount of food. Devouring it without
pause. The boy was so small and skinny. Where the hell did he put all of
that...?
"Who's the new guy?" A tall pink haired guy with glasses plopped into the empty
seat next to Yoichi. Crossing his arms and giving Yuu a look of contempt.
"This is Yuu! He's from Nagoya." Yoichi introduced.
"Hmm..." Was the pink haired telephone pole's only response.
"Yuu, this is Shiho-"
"Kimizuki." The guy interrupted. Pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose
with an index finger. "Call me Kimizuki." He instructed Yuu.
"Ya, sure. Whatever." Yuu continued eating his curry lunch. Getting the odd
sense that he was a third wheel as Yoichi and Kimizuki chattered. Yuu wasn't
really listening. And he found himself scanning around the cafeteria. Trying to
spot blond hair within the crowd of students.
"Mika isn't here." Yoichi said. Giving Yuu a knowing smile.
"Huh?"
"The blondie you have an immediate crush on." Yuu would have kicked Yoichi's
chair over if only the boy didn't look so damned innocent and sweet as he
spoke. "Thats who you're looking for right?" His smile turned into a bit of a
smirk. While Kimizuki just looked increasingly more irritated.
"Tch, go figure." Kimizuki scoffed.
"I-I dont have a crush on him!" Yuu blurted out. "Why would you even think
that?"
Yoichi scratched his cheek with a pointer finger. "Well, he IS pretty
compelling to say the least. A lot of people like him. But he usually spends
his lunch hour in the the student council room or in meetings."
Yuu glanced between Yoichi and Kimizuki. Who scoffed again and glared out the
window.
"Do you have a problem with him or something Kimizuki?" Yuu asked.
"Not particularly." The pink haired guy answered. "He's a helpful person
overall. Maybe a little too helpful at times. Its irritating."
Yoichi gave Kimizuki a guilty look.
"Are you guys friends with him?" Yuu asked.
"More or less." Was Kimizukis only answer. And Yuu let the subject drop when
Kimizuki started occupying himself with his phone. Then two girls joined their
table. One of them had light violet hair and the other was blond. Not the kind
of blond like Mika was. Her's was more yellow and dark and didn't shine as much
in the sun. Mika's was bright and glossy and...'What the fuck am I thinking
about that guys hair for?"
The violet haired girl sat in the chair next to Yuu and scootched closer to him
until their knees touched. "Who's the hotty?!" She asked while she propped her
chin in her palm and fluttered her lashes at Yuu flirtatiously.
"You know my name already Shinoa!" Yoichi smiled.
"Shut up Yoichi, you know what i'm asking!"
Yoichi giggled. 'Was she talking about me?' Yuu wondered. He turned away and
blushed.
"This is Yuu." Kimizuki told her.
"He doesn't look like me!" Shinoa gave Yuu and ponderous look.
Kimizuki rolled his eyes. Along with Yuu. He got this every time. "Not 'YOU',
idiot. Yuu-kun!" Kimizuki corrected.
"No shit Sherlock." Shinoa shot back.
"You're annoying when you're trying to be funny." Kimizuki retorted.
"You're annoying in general!" The blond haired girl barked.
'Oh jeez why am I here?' Yuu thought as he sunk in his seat.
Kimizuki sighed. "Anyway! Yuu, this is Shinoa and Mistuba. Don't ever lend them
money." The girls glared. "And don't think you two can go and sink your claws
into him. He's already taken." Kimizuki smirked.
"What?!" Yuu blanched. "By who? I just got here!"
Yoichi blinked. "But don't you have a crush on Mika?"
"I don't even know him!"
"Awww, you're gay?" Shinoa pouted.
"Eh?! No! Thats not-"
"It's ok Yuu." Said Mitsuba. "You don't have to be embarrassed. You can come
out of the closet. We wont judge!"
"I'm not gay!!" Yuu shouted. And apparently it was loud enough for everyone in
the cafeteria to hear him, because everyone paused what they were doing to
stare at him.
"You sure are noisy Yuu." Yoichi giggled.
Yuu buried his face in his hands. Groaning "I'm never sitting with you guys
again..."

Of course, Yuu did end up sitting with these assholes again for the entire
week. As much as their badmouthing (mostly fro Shinoa and Kimizuki) annoyed
him, he actually enjoyed their antics and their back and forth daily insult
contests. They badmouthed everyone it seemed, not just Yuu. All except for
Yoichi, who would subtly and suddenly come out of left field and slip in his
own off the wall comment. Then blink owlishly as if he was wondering who said
that. Yuu found it rather endearing. And it was refreshing to be around people
who weren't always trying to be polite just to put on a good image. They were
just themselves. He appreciated it, and found himself becoming more and more
comfortable around them to be able to just be himself.
What he DID find off putting, was that nobody ever invited him over after
school, or they declined Yuu's offers to come to his house. And they were
secretive about their home life and backstory. But whatever. Yuu wasn't exactly
open about his own either.
Yuu still hadn't worked up the courage to talk to the intriguing blond guy, but
Mika had made an appearance in the cafeteria earlier that week. He smiled at
the group at their table when Shinoa waved gleefully at him. Briefly making eye
contact with Yuu, who nearly jumped at being noticed by him, before the blond
narrowed his gaze on Yoichi. Yoichi just smiled weakly in return before
occupying himself again by pouring ketchup over his mountain of french fries.
Then Mika quickly got some food for himself and left before a group of students
tried to speak with him.
Yuu found it odd. Mika seemed familiar with Yuu's new group of friends, but he
never actually saw the blond speak to them. And what was with that look that he
gave to Yoichi? Yoichi was one of the most genuinely nice guys Yuu had ever
met. He couldn't imagine the boy ever making somebody upset.
 
~
 
Speaking of Yoichi...where was he? Yuu sat his tray on the usual table his
friends were sitting at. Looking around the crowd of people in the cafeteria
for the short brunette.
"Ya know cherry boy, your pining for Mika is starting to border on
embarrassing." Shinoa snarked. "You're not gonna get all 'Yandere Simulater' on
the Senpai are you?"
"What? No, I'm looking for Yoichi..." Yuu said distractedly.
"You haven't seen him?" Kimizuki asked.
"Well he was in class," Yuu pondered "but he didn't seem to be feeling so well.
Had his head on his desk the whole time and left a few minutes before the bell
rang."
"Where was Mika?" Shinoa asked.
Yuu shrugged. "Student council meetings I'm assuming. Haven't seen him."
The others all shared a cagey look. 'What is up with them?' Yuu wondered as he
watched the exchange. Something was wrong.
"I'm gonna go find him." Yuu turned to leave.
"Yuu, wait!" Mitsuba urged.
Then Kimizuki stood abruptly. "I'll go with you."
"Shiho-"
"It's fine!" Kimizuki cut Shinoa off, then turned to leave with Yuu.
As they hustled away, Yuu heard Shinoa whisper to Mitsuba "We gotta find
Mika..."
~
Yuu wasn't sure why Kimizuki had such a sense of urgency, but he followed the
tall pink haired guy as they raced through the halls of the school, frantically
searching for all the places Kimizuki thought Yoichi might be. The locker room,
empty classrooms, even the damned janitors closet. 'Why the hell would he be in
a janitors closet?!'
"Kimizuki! If he's feeling sick, wouldn't he be in the nurse's office?"
"No, he wouldn't go to the nurse!" Kimizuki seemed frantic.
"Why not?"
"Just shut up and help me find him! Where would you go if you wanted to get
away from everyone?"
Where would Yuu go? Hmm...he supposed somewhere outside on a nice day like
this. Laying on the roof or in the grass was something Yuu used to do at his
previous school when he was evading being bullied. But there seemed to always
be other people on the roof...
"Maybe the soccer field?" Yuu suggested.
Kimizuki gave a skeptical look before abruptly turning on his heels and
sprinted towards the exit doors.
Now Yuu's hunches were hardly ever accurate. But for once, it had actually paid
off. For there Yoichi was, a few yards away. But he wasn't peacefully lying in
the grass. He was curled up in a ball under the bleachers in a poor attempt to
hide himself, shaking and breathing heavily.
"Yoichi!" Yuu shouted and ran to him. But Kimizuki seemed frozen in place.
Nostrils flared and jaw slackened. And it almost looked like he was...drooling?
"Kimizuki! What the fuck?! Help me get him up!"
"Y-Yuu-" Youchi gasped out, looking up at him with tear filled eyes that made
Yuu's gut twist. "H-help me..."
"Of course! Of course I'll help you!" Yuu nodded. "What do you need Yoichi?" He
felt his head. He was burning up and sweating. "Are you sick? Do you need
water? Do you have any? Kimizuki! Do you have any?"
Kimizuki had a hand over his mouth and nose as he spoke muffled words.
"Yoichi," He said. "Where are your pills?"
"You take pills? Where are they? I'll get them for you!" Yuu felt a spike of
alarm when Yoichi seemed to writhe in pain.
"T-they're at home..." the boy whimpered. "I didn't-it wasn't supposed to be t-
time yet...I'm s-sorry..."
'What the hell was going on? Time for what? What sort of illness did he have?'
And if what he needed was at his house then they needed to get him there. Shit,
Yuu didnt have a car!
"Do one of you have a car?" He asked. Both of them shook their heads. Dammit.
"Can you walk Yoichi?" The boy tried to stand on wobbly legs, but immediately
collapsed. Clinging to Yuu like a drowning man and pulling him down with him.
Yoichi started rubbing his face up and down Yuu's chest as he lay on top of him
between his legs. Gripping Yuu's uniform jacket with shaky fists.
As strange as it was...Yuu allowed the action, seeing as it somewhat calmed the
boy, and lightly wrapped his arms around him. Kimizuki practically growled and
stalked over to the two with his fists clenched in anger. Like he was about to
throw some hands at someone.
Then seemingly out of fucking nowhere, Mika sprang in front of Kimizuki,
pushing a hand against his chest to halt his advance. "Stay back Shiho."
Although Mika spoke softly, their was authority in his voice. Kimizuki batted
his hand away and started for them again. Mika Yanked at the guys collar,
pulling him face to face until their noses nearly touched. "I said...Stay.
Back." Even though Mika was slightly shorter than his fuming counterpart, he
seemed to be staring Kimizuki down. "Before you do something you will regret
later..."
A few heartbeats passed, then Kimizuki took a couple of halting steps back.
Allowing Mika to stride over to where Yoichi was still rubbing all over Yuu's
chest and shoulders. When Mika was just a few feet away, Yoichi paused,
blinking open his teary eyes. He looked over at Mika and with a cry, he pounced
on him. Knocking Mika on his ass as he wrapped his arms around the blond head
and buried his face in his neck. Instantly going slack.
Without losing his calm expression, Mika retrieved a blanket from the large
backpack he had slung over his shoulder and wrapped it around the still
clinging Yoichi. "I'll get you home." He whispered to the boy, who nodded
against his neck in response. Then Mika swooped Yoichi up bridal style and
stood. As he walked away he looked at Yuu over his shoulder, who was still
sitting on the ground with a perplexed look on his face. "Keep this to yourself
Yuu." The blond told him. "Yoichi doesn't like people to know about his
illness."
Yuu blinked. "Oh...um...alright. Sure..."
Then Mika looked at Kimizuki. "One hour." Was all the blond said. Then he
walked away.
Yuu still sat in a daze as both he and Kimizuki watched the blond carry Yoichi
across the soccer field towards the school parking lot.
'What the ever living fuck was that all about?'
He looked at Kimizuki, who still had his fists clenched. "Oi! Kimizuki, what
just happened?"
The tall boy turned to stalk back to the school building. "Shut up and mind
your own damn business idiot!" he barked.
"Well fuck you too then!"

Chapter Summary
     Mika's POV
Chapter Notes
     Mika Chapter :)
     I wasnt going to split this into two chapters originally. But I did.
     It would have been really long otherwise. Sorry!
     Oh, and a little smut ;)
     YAY!(?)
     Enjoy!
See the end of the chapter for more notes
Mika placed Yoichi into the passenger seat of his car. Trying to pry the boy
off of his neck where he was now biting on his scent gland, releases more of
the blond's pheromones. Mika shuttered as Yoichi writhed through another wave
of heat. The scent of his slick clung to the air, causing Mika to have to hold
his breath to keep control as he started the car and drove from the school
parking lot.
He was relieved that Shinoa and Mitsuba had found him in time. He knew if he
had been seconds later, Shiho would have fucked the young omega in heat right
in front of the unsuspecting beta. Then they would all be screwed. They'd all
have to disappear again before they were arrested and deported. Mika feared
that may already be the outcome, if that beta Yuu decided to report to
authorities what he had just witnessed. Friends with Yoichi or not, beta's all
turned on the alpha's and omega's eventually. It had been ingrained in them by
their parents since infancy, that a non beta was dangerous. A scourge upon the
earth. An abomination of nature. Even though Yuu looked genuinely confused by
the whole event, he still couldn't count him out just yet. He'd definitely have
to do some damage control with Shinoa.
He dialed her number and she picked up on the second ring. "Surveillance
camera's?" She immediately asked.
"Ya."
"Already on it."
Mika sighed with relief. "Make sure the footage from the parking lot in erased
too."
"Okie dokie!"
Mika rubbed his forehead. Noticing the sweat beading there. "Make sure you talk
to that Beta, Yuu. And get Kimizuki excused along with Yoichi for the next 4
days..." Mika trailed off as Yoichi started rubbing against his neck again.
Moaning and whimpering in agony.
"Kimizuki?" Shinoa asked. "You're not going to be staying with him?"
"No. Not anymore..."
Mika heard the girl humming over the phone.
"Shinoa?"
"Ya, ya surveillance, absence, Yuu. Got it." Shinoa said. "But how are you
going to be able to keep in it your pants blondie? If you do the dirty with him
you know you're asking for a tussle with Shiho."
"Ya, I know that!" Mika snapped, and he gently tugged Yoichi off of him. "Don't
worry about me. Just do your thing. I have to go now."
He hung up and looked over at the curled up omega.
"Yoichi, why would you come to school when you're about to go into heat? I
thought you knew better, we've been going through this for almost two years
now!"
Yoichi whimpered. Although Mika had never raised his voice to him, the command
in the alpha's tone made Yoichi instinctively cower and submit. "I-I'm sorry
Mika! I thought it was just a fluke. I'm almost two weeks early! This hasn't
happened before..."
Yoichi wiggled unfortunately in his seat. The blanket he was wrapped in had a
special lining that contained the smell of pheromones. If it wasn't for the
heat blanket containing his scent, it would be soaked into Mika's car for days.
Mika cracked the window, trying to breath fresh air and keep his body in check.
Gripping the steering wheel until his knuckles were white. As much as he wanted
to fuck the omega like he had through his previous heats, Kimizuki had finally
presented, and he had asked Mika if he could have the boy for himself.
As the head alpha in their small community at the school, Mika had claim to any
omega he wanted. He'd knot them in their heats and appease their rampant
desires, but he had never claimed one to be solely his mate. Yoichi was a near
perfect omega, always giving and eager to please and submissive. But something
always held Mika back from placing his claiming mark on the boy. Yoichi wasn't
his mate. That didn't mean he didn't enjoy fucking him. And although Mika could
have been selfish and told Kimizuki no, he could see the earnest expression in
the younger alpha's eyes. Could see how much he had yearned for Yoichi and how
much he wanted to be the boys alpha. If the pink haired alpha wanted Yoichi
that badly, then Mika would give him to him.
They pulled up to Yoichi's apartment and Mika swooped him into his arms once
more. Luckily there was nobody in the halls or on the stairs during this time
of day as Mika climbed the four flights of stairs. Mika had his own key to the
place since Yoichi is, or was, his omega. He's have to give it to Kimizuki once
he got here.
He let himself in and was nearly brought to his knees by the scent wafting to
his senses. 'How did Yoichi even make it to school in the first place?' The
sweet smell of heat seemed the make the air heavy and sultry in the soft light
of Yoichi's apartment.
Bringing the boy to his room, Mika had noticed that the omega had already
started instinctively nesting. There were three of his futons stacked in the
corner or the room, and what looked like every pillow in the house strewn on
and around the sleeping area. It looked inviting. Leaving Yoichi without
fucking him wasn't going to be easy...
As Mika laid the omega in his nesting area, Yoichi clung to him harder.
Refusing to let the alpha get away.
"Yoichi." Mika said softly. "I need you to let go so I can get your
suppressants."
"No! Don't go alpha! Please!" Yoichi busied himself with hastily trying to
unbuckle Mika's belt and free his hardening cock. But Mika stayed his hands.
Yoichi gazed up at him tearfully as he clutched the belt.
Mika sighed. "I can't take you Yoichi. I'm sorry..."
The omega looked utterly distraught. "W-why not?! Did I do something wrong...?
Is this because I went into heat at school?!" Yoichi buried his face into
Mika's chest. Revealing the back of his neck in submission. "I'm sorry alpha!"
Yoichi sobbed. "Please don't abandon me! I'll be good! I'll never screw up
again! I promise! Please alpha!" The boy was being frantic.
Being abandoned by an alpha who was mating them was shameful and physically
painful for an omega. The bond ripped from them like rendered flesh. So he
understood Yoichi's fear. But Mika was giving him to Shiho. The transition of
the bond would be painless for Yoichi. Though maybe not so much for Mika. He'd
be left feeling hollow for a while.
Mika had to admit, he was going to miss the enthusiastic omega. But Shiho
recognized his mate within Yoichi and the younger alpha was in love with him.
He had been in love with Yoichi even way before Shiho had presented a couple of
months ago.
Mika pressed Yoichi to his back. "I'm not upset with you sweetheart." He
whispered, trying to sooth the omega. He cared deeply for Yoichi, but Mika
recognized his own feelings and knew he wasn't in love with the boy. He wasn't
even sure if he was capable of such emotions. And Yoichi deserved someone who
could give him that. Still, Mika wanted to pleasure the boy one more time. And
it seemed it might be the only way to calm down the frantic omega.
"And i'm not abandoning you Yoichi..." Mika said as he removed the heat blanket
and began undressing him. The mouthwatering scent of his slick now releasing
into the room from the confines of Yoichi's clothing clouded Mika's mind.
Yoichi's breaths quickened as he helped Mika remove his dampened pants and
underwear. Then lay back on the abundance of pillows to stretch and arch his
naked body enticingly.
Mika's pupils dilated at the display as he inhaled deeply and loomed over the
omega, taking his mouth and kissing him roughly. Thoroughly exploring the hot
wet mouth with his tongue until Yoichi was breathless.
"I-inside alpha!" Yoichi gasped. "I need you ins-AH!"
Mika quickly slipped two fingers into Yoichi's wet puckered entrance. Stroking
until they were all the way in, pumping them slowly and deeply as he kissed
down the omega's body, and grazed his teeth over a pert nipple. Causing Yoichi
to keen and grind against Mika's hand for more friction. Desperately trying to
get those long slender fingers on that spot inside of him. Gripping his own
small cock and stroking in time with Mika's thrusting hand.
When Mika's fingers made contact with Yoichi's throbbing prostate, the omega
arched sharply, slick pouring from his needy hole to further wet the alpha's
fingers. Making the movements deliciously slippery as squelching sounds joined
the chorus of Yoichi's whimpers and moans.
His sheath clenched tightly as Mika assaulted the omega's prostate. Crooking
his finger slightly every time he pumped them inside, and softly grinding his
palms against the base of the omega's sack. He could feel the omega was about
to cum.
"Your cock alpha! Please, knot me..." Yoichi whined.
"I...I cant...I cant Yoichi..." Mika said breathlessly, thrusting faster.
Yoichi gazed up at him with shining lust filled eyes. And Mika couldn't help
but recall another pair of green eyes he's seen...
Yoichi's eyes fluttered closed, muscles tightening and Mika leaned down to take
his mouth again as the omega came. A small amount of cum spurted over Yoichi's
torso as slick flowed hotly from his body. Soaking Mika's hand and the bedding
beneath his as he clutched the alpha closer.
And as Mika devoured the omega's moans and cries into his own mouth, he kept
thinking about bright emerald eyes gazing at him with the same lust filled
expression. And his mind whispered the name associated with them.
'Yuu-chan...'

Chapter Summary
     More Mika POV
Chapter Notes
     Thank you all so much for the comments! I <3 you all!
     Here's the second part of Mika's POV. I bit shorter than the last.
     And a tad bit of smut. :)
     Mika's such a horny bastard. YAY!
     Thank you for reading!
See the end of the chapter for more notes
Now that Yoichi was calmed down in his post coital haze, Mika was finally able
to leave his side for a few minutes to fetch the omega's suppressants and wash
the slick from his hands. He didn't have long before the heat would overtake
Yoichi again. He really hoped that Shiho would be here by then.
Retrieving the pills, a glass of water and a chocolate bar for Yoichi to eat to
rid his mouth of Mika's taste and scent, he returned to the omega who was now
quietly dozing.
“Yoichi?”
The boy sat up, rubbing his eyes. “Hm?”
“Here.”
Yoichi took the suppressants before opening the chocolate to nibble on it. He
seemed deep in thought. Mika could tell the omega was feeling rejected because
Mika had refused to mate him.
Mika sighed. “Yoichi, look, I dont want you to think i'm abandoning you so i'm
just going to say it.”
Yoichi looked at him expectantly.
“I didnt mate you because Shiho would be angry.”
“Why would Shiho be angry?” Yoichi's brows drew together.
“Yoichi, I'm sure you already know that Shiho has feelings for you.” Mika
smiled at the blush forming on Yoichi's face.
“Well kind of...”
“Well he asked me to let him be your alpha.”
Yoichi's head snapped up. “Really?” He seemed pretty happy about the prospect.
“Would you be ok with that?” Mika asked.
“Ya, I mean...we will still be friends though right?”
Mika patted the omega's hair. “Of course.” He smiled brightly at the boy.
Inwardly sighing with relief. It would have really sucked if Yoichi didn't want
Shiho back.
There was a knock at the door then. “Wait here.” Mika said as he went to answer
it. Quietly, he padded to the door and put his ear up against it. Trying to
listen for the sound of boots or handcuffs or anything indicating that it was
someone other than Kimizuki at the door. Hearing nothing, he cracked the seal
covering the mail slot, and instantly smelled the scent of the young alpha.
Mika unbolted the door.
Kimizuki quickly entered, closing the door behind him in a rush and bolting it
closed before he started making his way towards Yoichi's room. Upon being in
the now enclosed space with the scent and knowledge of an unbound omega in
heat, Kimizuki lost all reason and started acting solely on instinct. Snarling
at the blond alpha when Mika had grabbed at Kimizuki's arm to stop him.
“Shiho!” Mika barked.
Kimizuki snapped out of his bout of aggression briefly. Mika needed to speak to
him before the guy pounced on Yoichi. This would be his first time with an
omega and his self control wouldnt last long.
“Listen to me Shiho,” Mika began. “You need to bolt the door closed as soon as
I leave. His heat lasts about three days so Shinoa is making sure both of your
absences are excused.”
Kimizuki nodded and tried to head towards Yoichi's room again. But Mika stayed
him, earning another growl from the other alpha. “Shiho focus! Make sure Yoichi
takes his suppressants every day until it's over then one more the day after.
Or you'll get him pregnant. And he needs to eat after he takes them or he will
get sick. Got it?”
Kimizuki seemed to actually be listening this time. He nodded again.
“Ok good.” Mika went to grab his backpack.
“Did you two...just now...?” Kimizuki trailed off. But Mika knew what he was
trying to ask.
He shook his head. “Don't worry Shiho, he's all yours now.” Retrieving to
apartment key for Yoichi's place, Mika placed it in Kimizuki's hand. “Remember,
bolt the door closed. And don't open it for anybody.”
With one final nod from Kimizuki, Mika left.
 
~
 
Mika lay pondering in his bed later that night. Although giving the omega up
wasn't as painful as Mika had thought, that wasn't what he was so uneasy about.
For some odd reason, his mind had all but seized on that image and thought of
the beta Yuu as he pleasured Yoichi. But why? Usually beta's went beneath his
notice. As an alpha, he didnt feel any instinctive attraction to them. He would
socialize with them out of obligation because he was student council president,
and he was friends with the beta Shinoa because she was able to access
surveillance and manipulate absences because her family owned the school.
Not to mention the fact that she was sticking her neck out for everyone, and
risking arrest to help everyone keep their secret about what they were.
Yuu on the other hand? He could be dangerous. If he hadn't figured out what
they were already, being friends with him was only inviting more speculation.
He would figure it out eventually. No matter how clueless and helpful he
seemed...
Mika huffed and turned to lay on his side. Still...there was something about
the beta. He was genuinely worried for Yoichi. Mika could see that. He even let
the omega rub his scent all over him. Holding him close and even comforting the
boy. Was this 'Yuu' aware of their presence already and was on their side? Or
was he really that oblivious?
Most beta's would be horrified by what had happened and report to the Japanese
Investigative District for Anti-betas. Or JIDA as they were aptly named. But in
the back of Mika's mind, something told him that Yuu wouldn't rat them out. The
beta just had that certain look in his eyes....
Those eyes...
He'd never imagined such an intriguing green color ever existed. They were
expressive and stunning and Mika could always feel them on him as the beta
watched him. The back of his neck would tingle every time he knew that Yuu was
staring, before Mika would snap his head towards him and catch him. Stifling a
shit-eating grin when Yuu would grow flustered and blush from being caught.
Mika found it cute. Endearing even. So much so that he wanted to make that beta
blush in other ways. Maybe by stroking his hair. Or kissing his neck...rubbing
his thigh against his-
Mika suddenly noticed he had been stroking himself. He huffed again and rolled
to his back. 'Jerking off to a beta? Really Mikaela?'
He was tense because he needed to fuck. And that need was being denied. Why he
was focusing his lust towards Yuu, Mika didnt know. But the thought of seeing
that beta beneath him as he pounded into him make his cock so hard it pained
him. And showed no signs of going away any time soon. Even after Mika had lain
staring at his ceiling and tried to think of things to make his erection go
away for the next half hour.
Yet, his cock was being persistent, and his mind kept drifting to his
imaginings of the stunning beta. Mika sighed in defeat, and wrapped his fingers
around his shaft. Instantly feeling relief from the pressure and friction as he
stroked himself from base to tip.
He allowed his mind to wander into fantasies of fucking that beta senseless. Of
pinning Yuu's strong body down and mastering him, satisfying the strong need to
dominate. To make Yuu submit and to do what he pleased with him.
Giving up his omega had made these feelings all the more intense. It was
galling and shameful and hurt Mika's pride. And now all of his pent up sexual
anguish didn't have an outlet.
“Dammit..” Mika bit out. Digging his heels into the mattress as he fucked his
fist harder, faster. Wanting so badly for Yuu's mouth to be around his cock.
Wanting Yuu unclothed and in his bed and bending over for Mika to shove into
him over and over. Filling him with his cum and knotting him as Mika nipped his
shoulders with his teeth...
“Oh god...” Mika came in a blinding rush. Vision blurring as he rode the waves
of his orgasm and let ropes of his cum lash across his torso.
His toes tingled and his brain was in a hazy state from his powerful orgasm,
yet his erection remained. His instinctive need to knot was rampant.
“This isn't good...”

Chapter Summary
     Mika's attitude about Yuu-chan after the previous events.
Chapter Notes
     Soooooo........because I have been loving the responses and theories
     i've been getting, i MIGHT update again today with a Yuu-chan
     chapter. We shall see ;)
     Im really having a lot of fun writing this fic! And seeing everyone's
     theories is fun too!
     This is a pretty short chapter, but hey, its plot progression!
     The title of the chapter is also a song by Taking Back Sunday that I
     think fits this content pretty well. So go give it a listen if you
     can :)
     Without further ado, here's chapter 5. Enjoy!
See the end of the chapter for more notes
For the Past three days Yoichi and Kimizuki had been absent. Before they
returned yesterday, Yuu had grilled Shinoa and Mistuba about their whereabouts
and what happened to them. But they have just brushed him off. Claiming Yoichi
had an incurable sickness and Kimizuki had the flu.
Their flippant attitude rankled to say the least.
Yuu was seriously worried about Yoichi, and how he had just collapsed the way
he had.
Guren had told him to report any strange events like that, but honestly? Why
the hell would he listen to that dickhead? Yoichi was his friend! He was kind
and funny and Yuu didnt want to believe that Yoichi was an "Anti-beta".
Yoichi+dangerous=not likely! The younger kid wouldn't hurt a fly.
Kimizuki? Maybe. In fact, Yuu was pretty sure Kimizuki would take a
flamethrower to a fly if it was accessible. But the beanpole was his friend
too, Yuu supposed. No matter how annoying he could be, he would still defend
Yuu against any bully who came his way.
Maybe Yoichi really did have a strange illness. Maybe Kimizuki really did have
the flu like Shinoa said. He didn't want to doubt them. But that didnt explain
everyone's odd behavior, even when Yoichi and Kimizuki had showed up the next
day looking right as rain. Not at all like recovering sick people.
Even Mika was acting strange. The blond kept glancing at him more frequently
than usual. And instead of the usual indifferent gaze he would look at him
with, Yuu had noticed that the blond was eyeing him with a more studying and
curious expression. Which only caused Yuu to stare at the blond more often. And
Mika kept catching him! 'God dammit Yuu! Stop being gay!' Yuu had to mentally
slap himself every time he'd notice his eyes lingering a tad too long.
But the blond's lips would quirk a little whenever he caught Yuu's stares.
Making the black haired teen's face go hot from the sudden rush of blood to his
cheeks. 'Stop it stop it stop it!'
Putting it frankly? Yuu was fed up with his friends acting all weird around
him!
 
~
 
At lunch the next day, Yuu was standing in line to buy food when he felt the
presence of somebody standing WAY too close behind him. Expecting said person
wanted to fight him, Yuu whirled around, about to lash out at the asshole who
was invading his personal bubble. Nearly colliding heads with the blond.
Almost touching noses with the guy, Yuu stuttered out, "Oi! M-Mikaela?" His
face went hot again. 'For fucks sake, stop blushing already!' Being this close
to the blond was making his body feel way too warm.
With the same indifferent mask Mika usually wore, he grasped Yuu's upper arm.
"Come with me." He said, pulling Yuu out of line and towards the cafeteria
exit. Many people gaped at the student council president manhandling the
sputtering new kid. Even Kimizuki, Shinoa and the others waiting at their table
looked perplexed.
"Um...Mika, if this is about the thing with Yoichi the other day, I haven't
said anything to anyone! I swear!"
Mika didn't respond. Just wrangled Yuu down the halls of the school.
They came upon an empty classroom and Mika nearly tossed Yuu inside, slamming
the door behind him.
Yuu stumbled a bit before he righted himself, whirling around to face off
against the pushy blond. "Hey! What the fuck?! You wanna fight me?!"
Mika still didn't respond. Only stalked closer, causing Yuu to back up until
his back hit a wall. He glared, his temper rising. He hated when people tried
to intimidate him. "M-Mika! What are you doing?! If you wanna fight me, then
just fight me! Let's get this over with!"
Without warning Mika slammed his palms against the wall on either side of Yuu's
head. Caging him in.
Yuu flinched slightly, but held his glare. That is, until Mika started leaning
in closer to his face. Yuu's eyes widened and he blushed furiously. But he made
to move to stop him. 'Punch him!' his mind screamed. But he was frozen in
place.
Mika moved slowly. Almost predator like, until he was scant inches away, gazing
at him with hooded eyes.
Yuu briefly fluttered his eyes closed.
Yet, instead of the blond kissing him like Yuu had half expected, Mika dipped
his face to Yuu's neck. Trailing his nose and lips from the base of his throat
up to his ear, inhaling deeply.
Yuu's eyes snapped back open. 'What the hell is Mika doing?!' The action was
odd, but it made Yuu bite his lips. Fighting the urge to wrap his arms around
Mika's shoulder and tilt his head to give the blond more access. Had his neck
always been this sensitive?
But before Yuu could do any of those things, Mika straightened abruptly.
Dropping his hands from the wall and glaring down at him. Then without a single
word, he simply just fucking left the room. 'Seriously?!' Yuu thought. These
people got weirder by the day! Yuu tugged at his shirt collar, stifling a
shudder. 'Jesus, why is it so hot in here?!'
 
~
 
Mika had had the slightest hope that maybe, just maybe, Yuu was an omega. Maybe
masking his scent. Possibly in hiding as well. He was almost 18 so if he was an
omega he should have presented by now. But Yuu didn't even have a scent. His
body was like a dead zone when it came to pheromones. Even beta's had a certain
unappealing smell, but Yuu? Nothing. It was disheartening.
He thought he had caught a new omega scent on the wind earlier that day. But it
had quickly disappeared. 'Maybe I'm just imaging things. Maybe I'm grasping at
straws' Mika thought. Further souring his already dismal mood.
In the bathroom, Mika splashed water on his face. Gripping the edge of the sink
to steady himself and tried to clear his head. His obsession with the beta was
getting ridiculous. He was thinking about him constantly. Always hyper aware of
his presence. Waking in the middle of the night, a hairs trigger away from
coming or grinding his cock into the mattress from the vivid dreams he'd
experienced. Rasping his name as Mika would stroke himself to orgasm. And every
day at school he would purposely place himself where he thought Yuu might be so
he could see him. Pining for the beta like a lovesick school girl.
'Why...why did he have to be a beta?!' Somebody Mika could never be with...
Mika pushed off the sink in frustration. Making his face an indifferent mask
once more. 'Get yourself together Mikaela!' He would have to apologize to the
beta for is idiotic behavior.

For the entire weekend, Yuu's body felt uncomfortable. His back and stomach
ached and his skin felt hot and clammy. Maybe he caught that flu virus from
Kimizuki? Yet he still sustained his ravenous appetite. Which got him berated
by Guren when Yuu had managed to finish off three boxes of Pocky and an entire
carton of milk in a matter of minutes. Then went searching for other things to
satisfy his demonic food lust.
“Stocking up for winter?” Guren asked from the other end of the kitchen, making
Yuu pause in his struggle to open a giant chip bag. Though the question was
rhetorical. “If you insist upon eating us out of house and home, then you
better start helping pay for the groceries!”
“Whatever.” Yuu rolled his eyes as he shoved a handful of chips in his mouth.
'As if you can't afford it, asshole.'
Once his hunger was sated though, he still felt antsy. Shifting in his chair as
he studied. Jogging his aching legs.
Once 10:30 rolled around, Yuu decided to give up on the studying. Figuring he
just needed to get some sleep. He flipped the switches to turn off the lights
and turned the ceiling fan on, removing his sweat dampened shirt and crawled
onto the cool sheets. Which instantly warmed upon coming into contact with his
feverish body.
He felt mentally drained, but after restlessly tossing and turning in his bed
he began to grow frustrated. He just couldn't keep still and his temperpedic
mattress felt too hard. Too empty. Lonely even. And he was unsettled by the
fact that his bed lay in the middle of the room.
With a huff, he got up, and maneuvered the heavy queen sized bed up against a
wall. Uncaring that he was scratching the wood floor with the legs of the bed
frame. He supposed that was a little better. But he still felt incomplete. He
ran a hand through his messy dark hair. 'Pillows!' That's what was missing. He
needed more pillows.
Tip toeing from his room he went in search for some. There was a couple of them
on the couch. And they were made of soft microfiber. He brought them to his
room then returned in search for more. 'Where would more be?' He tested the
couch cushions to see if they could be removed. He was even considering trying
to find a store that was open at this late hour on a Sunday to buy more. But
then he'd have to take the subway. And it was already past his curfew. But that
was how much he felt he needed pillows...
He heard the door to Guren's room open suddenly. Yuu froze in place. He vaguely
wondered how he must look to the man right now. Standing shirtless and sweaty
in the living room while clutching a couch cushion. “Umm...” Was all Yuu was
able to manage saying.
“What in the hell are you doing?” Guren asked. He didn't look too happy.
“Uh...p-pillows?” Yuu squeaked.
Guren raised a brow. “Pillows.” Guren deadpanned.
“Ya...do we have any?”
“There's four of them on your bed Yuuichiro. What the fuck do you need more
for?”
Yuu's gaze darted back and forth over the floor. As if it held the answer.
Honestly? Yuu didn't really know exactly what had brought on this sudden quest
for more pillows. He just knew he needed them.
“Well...” Yuu started, coming up with the best excuse he could muster. “My back
was hurting and all and um...I figured it might help?” It sounded reasonable to
Yuu. But Guren just narrowed his eyes on him. Glaring down at his lunatic of a
son for a good full minute. Causing Yuu to shift uncomfortably.
Then with a sigh, Guren strode over to the hallway. “Here.” He said. Yuu
surrendered the couch cushion and followed him.
Guren opened a linen closet in the hallway that Yuu hadn't realized was there
before, and retrieved several extra blankets and four more pillows. Stacking
them onto Yuu's waiting arms until only his black hair poked out over the top.
“Happy?” Guren asked irritatedly.
“Yes...” Yuu replied without looking around the stack in his arms.
Then followed Guren as he opened the door to Yuu's room for him, ushering the
boy inside. Noting how the furniture arrangement had changed and glaring at the
scratches on the floor. But he didn't comment. He was eerily silent as Yuu
plopped the extra bedding onto his mattress, watching Yuu's every movement with
a studying gaze.
Until Yuu went to shut his door. Blinking owlishly up at the man as Yuu slowly
began closing it, “Thanks...” Then he shut the door completely. Practically in
Gurens face, then leaned again it. 'Well that was awkward...'
Then Yuu busied himself with arranging the blankets and pillows around his bed
until it was comfortable and he was satisfied enough to finally be able to fall
asleep.
 
~
 
Guren retrieved his phone once he was back in his own room. Quickly dialing the
number for his work partner. “Shinya,” Guren said when the man answered on the
third ring. “I think we might have a problem.”

***** Breaking Free *****
Chapter Summary
     What's up with Yuu?
Chapter Notes
     So i'm sorry in advance for mistakes and such. I'm super tired but i
     will fix :)
     I said I wasn't going to update for a couple of days, but this whole
     scenario took so long write and took up so many pages that I'm
     splitting it into several chapters. And I wanted to get one out today
     so badly because you guys are so awesome <3
     The next one will be longer! I swear. And have more Mikayuu. YAY!
     Anyways, enjoy this little glimpse of things to come :)
See the end of the chapter for more notes
It took every ounce off willpower Yuu possessed just to get ready for school
the next day. He felt as if he'd been hit by a fucking truck. His sluggish
movements caused every muscle to scream in protest, and his stomach constantly
had a dull aching feeling that made him nauseous. And he was still fucking
sweating! Even after he had taken a cold shower.
~
He knew he was likely seeming like he was being an asshole when he ignored
Yoichi trying to engage him during class. He also grew increasingly annoyed by
the blond and his staring. It felt as if the walls were closing in on him and
he needed to get away from these people. He had the inclination that there were
too many eyes on him. Too many voices around. The teachers voice especially
sounded like nails on a chalkboard. He needed air...Yuu slammed his palm on his
desk and rose. "May I be excused to go to the nurse?" Yuu asked his teacher as
calmly as possible. Though his knees were wobbling with the effort to even
fucking stand.
"Oh, alright then Mr. Hyakuya." She said with a quizzical look. "Just let me
write you a-"
Yuu bolted out the door with his bag in hand before she could even finish her
sentence. He didnt really have the intention of going to see the nurse. He just
wanted to go home. Damn the consequences. And damn Guren if he gave him shit
for it. Yuu felt like he was dying!
He made it to the edge of the school yard before he found a place under a large
oak tree. He paused there to catch his breath since there were no other
students around. Yanking off his tie and uniform jacket. The cool air soothed
his overheated skin. It felt achy. And he suddenly felt very dizzy.
Suddenly a wave of searing heat seemed to suffuse every fiber in his body.
"Argh! What the shit?!" Yuu collapsed onto his knees, clenching his throbbing
abdomen. There were strange smells all around him, and his vision blurred from
unshed tears. Now he heard footsteps approaching him. 'God dammit!'
"Yuu-chan?"
Yuu snapped his head up to see Mika standing before him. 'Fuck, why does he
smell so good?' Yuu's abdomen throbbed again, and he felt something hot and wet
dripping down the backs of his thighs..."Eh!" Yuu flailed and fell back on his
ass, scrambling away from the blond. "G-go away!" Yuu didnt want anyone to see
him like this!
"If you're here to fuck with me again I dont need it-umph!" Yuu wrapped his
arms around his midsection tight as he curled in on himself. Uselessly willing
away the pain.
Mika dropped to his knees before him, reaching towards Yuu timidly as if he was
trying not to frighten off an injured puppy. "I'm sorry about that Yuu, I am
really am! But right now you need help. You're in pain-"
"No shit I'm in pain!" Yuu recoiled from Mika.
"Please." The blond said softly. "Let me help you." The hooded gaze directed at
Yuu did funny things to him, and he froze in place to allow Mika to wrap his
arms around Yuu and press the boys face to his collar.
Yuu inhaled deeply. The way Mika smelled...it seemed to lesson the pain
significantly until it was a dull ache. He buried his face closer to the source
of the scent. It was somewhere between his shoulder and his neck. How Yuu knew
this, he had no clue. He just had to get at it though.
Yet, when a spike of arousal shot through him that caused more of that
sickening wetness to drip down his legs, he flinched from the blond again.
Trying to clear his head from those thoughts. His abdomen clenched again at the
loss of contact. "F-fuck, Mika...I-I think I'm dying!" His entire body shook.
Yuu felt so sick and dizzy and hot and a bunch of other things his mind
couldn't comprehend at the moment. But in that instant, he was desperate for
something to ease the pain. Anything to curb this agony! Every time that wet
feeling flowed from him, his ass clenched around nothing. Making him feel empty
and hollow and frustrated. And utterly ashamed of himself.
~
Mika pulled back to look at Yuu's trembling form. He was wrapped around himself
as his brows were knit in pain. Tears spilling from his eyes made his dark
lashes spike from the moisture. Yet Mika couldnt have been happier in his
entire life. If he had found a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow, Mika would
have run in the other direction if Yuu lay in wait at the oppistite end. To
embrace this mouthwatering creature he had been fantasizing about for days.
'Yuu-chan...Yuu-chan was an omega!" And whatever gods out there who had granted
his wish, he swore he would worship them in thanks until the day he died.
He wanted Yuu to cling to him desperately and ask Mika to take him. But he
didnt. He wasn't behaving like any other omega should. He sat stiffly, curling
in on himself in obvious pain.
~
'What the hell is happening to me?!' Yuu wondered. Why was Mika trying to hug
him? Why did he smell so good? And why the fuck were his pants wet?!
Yuu flinched from Mika again when he tried to hold him again. "Stop playing
Mika! What the hell is this about?!" Anger rose in the black haired teens
throat, the bitterness from it lingered on his tongue as he spat harsh words at
the blond.
"You practically fucking assualt me the other day and humiliate me, then you
want to cuddle with with?! Well fuck you! I'm not interested!" Even as the
words spilled from his mouth, his body was reacting on its own. It was a silent
protest to what Yuu had said, and his mind cried out for this tall beautiful
blond. 'Tamp it down Yuu!'
Mika looked down his nose at Yuu as the boy ranted.
"You think you can just fuck with anybody you want because you're some hot
blond foreigner? Or because you're student council president? Well you cant!"
Yuu was glaring at Mika with every ounce of pain and anguish he felt. Tears
rolled down his cheeks and he fought the urge to bare his fucking teeth at this
blond bastard before him. His silence towards Yuu fired him up more.
"Don't even try to be all helpful and nice to me! I know your kind. Keep your
charity, I dont want it-"
Mika gripped Yuu's black hair. Hard. Yanking his head to the side to bare his
throat. Mika ripped open the collar of Yuu's shirt to graze his teeth from his
shoulder to his jawline.
Yuu shuddered from the unexpected onslaught of pleasure. 'This is so fucking
weird...' Yuu thought as his body went slack. 'Why does this feel so good?'
Mika looped an arm around his waist while the other cupped to back of Yuu's
head. "That's it Yuu-chan." Mika murmured. "Relax."
Stubbornly, Yuu wrapped his arms around Mika and pressed his face against the
blond's neck once more. It seemed to be the only thing able to sooth the pain
at the moment.
"I need to get you out of here Yuu-chan." Mika said in his ear.
Yuu recalled Yoichi. The way he had been behaving, was very similar to Yuu's
current state. "No!" Yuu cried out. "The last time you said that to Yoichi...he
disappeared for three days! What's going to happen to me? Where are you going
to take me?" Yuu narrowed his eyes up at him. "Why should I trust you?"
~
"Do you really not know what's going on right now Yuu-chan?"
Yuu shook his head against Mika's neck.
The blond clutched him tighter. Yuu-chan was so naive and innocent. He had no
idea of the dark desires running through Mika's head at the moment. The alpha
nearly growled at the prospect of taking him.
Yuu's scent was strange, but it was also making Mika lose his inhibitions. His
breaths shallowed as his mouth watered. A line of drool ran down the corner or
his mouth...'I have to have him...' He placed his lips to the boys throat.
"Mikaela! Yuuichiro!" Shinoa screeched as she ran towards the pair. Undoubtedly
daunted by the sight of Mika pinning Yuu against a tree while drooling and
sucking on his neck.
Mika realised how odd this seemed. He hadn't lost control around an omega in
heat since junior high. Mika had presented at 14, and upon smelling a young
omega that was having her first heat, Mika had went into a frenzy. Unable to
control himself, or his body, Mika had all but rutted the girl right behind the
school gymnasium. Until Shinoa had seen him, and roundhouse kicked him in the
head. Before she thoroughly scalded him and told him that he had to control
himself if he ever wanted to see the light of day again.
That was over four years ago, and now he had come full circle and was about to
fuck Yuu-chan right in the school yard!
"Are you off your goddamn rocker Mika?! What the hell are you doing?!"

Mika shook himself, noting that Mitsuba, Shiho and Yoichi were trailing behind
Shinoa.
He stopped his pinning of Yuu against the tree, but he continued to clutch him
close to himself as Shinoa and the others encircled the pair sitting in the
grass clinging to one another.
Mika bared his teeth aggressively when he saw Mitsuba, who's pupils were blown
as she scented the air. She sprang towards the pair, advancing on Yuu.
"Mistuba NO!" Shinoa gasped, wrapping a hand around the the Alpha girl's neck
as she tried to wrangle her away. She growled at Shinoa as she tried to fight
her off, but the short purple haired girl was surprisingly a lot stronger than
she looked. Practically strangling Mitsuba, she got the girl a safe distance
away. "Surveillance Mitsu!" Shinoa urged. "We need to go delete this from the
security camera's!" With reluctance, Mitsuba left with Shinoa. Understanding
the weight of the situation.
"Yuu?" Yoichi knelt beside him. Causing him to peek over at the boy who was
gaping with his owl eyed expression.
"Do you have your pills on you?" Mika asked Yoichi.
Who shook his head in response.
'Dammit!' Yuu couldn't be at the school like this. 'I'm definitely taking him
home!' Mika thought excitedly But his backpack was still in the freaking
classroom! Along with his car keys.
The teacher had sent Mika after him to give Yuu the nurse's pass. He hadn't
known what had been so urgent to cause the boy to bolt from the room. He didn't
even have a scent until Mika had approached him under the tree. The smell of
slick and omega heat pheromones had rolled off of Yuu in waves. Mika had
briefly thought that if it was visible, it would have looked like the northern
lights to him. That's how beautiful the scent was to him.
Mika could hardly believe this was happening. He almost felt like this was all
just some fevered dream that he would wake up from as soon as he let go of Yuu.
But he had to. He had to go and get his bag. He cursed to hell and back the
strict security measures the school took with not letting another student
retrieve someone else's things from their class. If Mika sent one of them to
try to get it, the teacher would likely follow to make sure the property got to
it's rightful owner. Especially Mika's bag since it had student council
paraphernalia inside of it. Then they would all be thoroughly screwed. He had
no choice. He had to leave Yuu-chan for a few minutes.
He looked up at Shiho, who's brows were drawn in confusion. Yet he was calm,
and he stood a respectful distance away. Being bonded now with Yoichi, he
didn't feel the instinctive drive to mate Yuu. Unlike the unbound Alpha
Mistuba, who would likely try to fight Mika for the new omega if given the
chance. A fight she would surely lose. He had had to fight her from Yoichi
before as well. Mika had first claim and that was that. Yet her aggression was
palpable. Luckily Shinoa had been there to take her away.
Looking back to Shiho, Mika silently pleaded to him. The younger alpha's scent
mingled with Yoichi's would help Yuu stay calm and docile while Mika went to
fetch his things. Shiho nodded in understanding, and went over to kneel before
Yuu and wrap his arms around him. As much as the blond hated another alpha
touching his prize, he didn't really have a choice.
Yuu didn't beg or plead for Mika to stay like Yoichi would. Instead, he hung
his head and he shuddered through the waves of his heat and silently clung to
Mika's jacket. The blond smiled. Apparently Yuu wasn't accustomed to being
vulnerable or begging anybody for anything. But he could see that Yuu needed
him to stay.
"I'll be back in a few minutes to take you home, Okay?" Mika said, grasping
Yuu's wrists. "Just stay put here with Shiho and Yoichi."
Yuu silently nodded, his head still hung in what Mika perceived as
embarrassment, but he let go. Only to bring his arms to wrap around his aching
abdomen once more. Hissing in pain.
It took everything Mika had to stand and back away from Yuu. He didn't want to
leave his side. And his instincts were screaming at him to stay. To comfort the
omega. To take the omega..."Five minutes" He bit out, before sprinting towards
the school building.
~
'Fuck my life...fuck my fucked up life!' Yuu inwardly yelled.
Once Mika had left, the throbbing pain had engulfed him once again. "Argh!" He
doubled over but Kimizuki held him fast, pulling him closer and gripping the
back of his head to shove Yuu's face into his shoulder. The pain lessened
somewhat, though not like it had when Mika had held him...
The way Kimizuki smelled was actually kind of comforting. And he also kind of
smelled like Yoichi. Which made him even more comfortable. 'How the hell can I
identify people by how they smell?' Mika's scent was somewhat between spicy and
earthy, and to Yuu's shameful admittance, arousing. He vaguely wondered when he
would return...
He felt Yoichi rubbing his back as Yuu panted out breaths, but the boys touch
made him relax further. Arching towards his touch until Yoichi pressed his
torso against Yuu's back and leaned his head against him. Wrapping him arms
around Yuu's waist and placing his hands over his, rubbing his thumbs gently
over the skin of his knuckles.
Yuu's squeezed his eyes shut, ashamed for allowing himself to be touched by so
many people so intimately. And embarrassed by what was happening with the lower
half of his body! Yuu whimpered in renewed agony.
"Yuu?" Yoichi spoke up. "Is this really your first?" His voice was so sweet and
soft next to his ear. "Do you have suppressants at home? If not I could bring
you some."
"Huh?" Yuu glanced over his shoulder at the boy. Their faces were so close. But
his scent wasn't as comforting as Kimizuki's, so he turned back to inhale more
of the tall guy's smell. "This doesn't mean I like you or anything!" Yuu said
to Kimizuki, though the words muffled against his shoulder.
"Just shut up you moron." Kimizuki said without any real malice in his tone.
"Common Shiho, be nice!" Yoichi pouted. Then turned his attention back to Yuu.
"I know how you feel. My first was pretty bad too. Luckily I was at home when
it happened. School is the worst place to be during this. You're just as bad as
me Yuu!" Yoichi giggled lightly against Yuu's ear.
'Just as bad as...' "What are you talking about Yoichi? First what?" Yuu
glanced back again.
Yoichi blinked at him. "Um-well...first heat. Ya know?"
"No I don't fucking know! What are you talking about?"
Yoichi flinched slightly at the harsh tone, but answered with his own question.
"You mean, nobody ever told you about this?"
Yuu Shook his head.
Yoichi opened his mouth to speak, but before Yoichi could further explain
anything they heard footsteps rapidly approaching them.
"Let's go!" Without missing a step, Mika swooped Yuu into his arms and hastened
toward the parking lot.
"Oi!" Yuu startled at the abrupt exchange of hands on him. And grew
increasingly flustered at the way Mika was carrying like some fucking damsel.
Regardless, Yuu allowed it. His legs felt so weak and jellowy he doubted he'd
be able to even walk.
~
Mika sped down the road with every window in the car opened. He nearly got them
into an accident twice while he was driving from his nearly scent-drug induced
state. This close proximity with Yuu was nearly making him crazed. His cock
strained painfully in the confines of his pants. Mika palmed it. Resisting the
urge to just pull over somewhere and take Yuu right then and there.
Mika looked over at him. He was curled in the passenger seat with his arms
still wrapped around himself. Facing away from him as he trembled slightly, and
his breathing was labored. But other than that, he was very still. Very quiet.
So unlike any omega Mika had ever encountered, who would usually cling to him
in desperation and beg Mika to fill them and knot them.
But Yuu was all but avoiding him. Ignoring him! And it wounded Mika's pride. He
decided that he didn't like Yuu quiet like this. He'd prefer the yelling at him
any day.
"Yuu-chan?"
Yuu glanced over at him, brows knit together in pain. Making Mika want to
cuddle him again.
"Where is your house Yuu?" Taking the omega where he was most comfortable would
be the best option at this point. He most likely had his nesting area set up
there. And Mika didn't have a heat room at his house. He never needed it. He
didn't take omega's home with him.
"Cant...can't g-go home!" Yuu bit out. "Guren...my dad...he..."
Yuu-chan had a family? Uh oh. If he couldn't go home to them, then... "Your
dad, is he a beta?"
All Yuu could manage was a nod.
'Fucking hell...' If Yuu's father was a beta, then that most likely meant that
he wasn't aware of his son's omega status. He would have gotten rid of Yuu when
he was a baby otherwise. Like his own parents did to Mika. Or attempted to,
even though Mika survived. 'How had Yuu kept it secret for so long? Were his
parents that stupid?' All beta parents who birthed a non-beta disposed of them.
It was nothing new. But Yuu-chan's situation was a precarious one. A dangerous
one. Mika needed to protect him...
He'd be taking an omega home after all...
~
Luckily, Mika didn't live in an apartment. His "beneficiary" was generous. So
ushering Yuu inside unnoticed was relatively easy.
But Mika was nervous as all hell, having never brought an omega over before.
Though now was not the time to get cold feet. Nor the time to be all hospitable
and or formal in their situation. Not with Yuu nearly collapsing in his
doorway.
Yuu was stubborn enough to try to walk to Mika's door on his own. Yet he knew
this exact scenario would happen if he tried. Mika swooped him up again,
kicking the door closed with his heel and carried the boy to the bedroom.
Gingerly, he lay Yuu on the bed. Mika's bed. The same bed that he had laid
awake at night in, fantasizing about this boy for the past week.
Now the reality of it all came crashing into him. 'Yuu-chan's in my bed...'
Mika mused as he tore off his tie and school jacket. 'Yuu-chan's in heat...and
he's in my bed!' He felt giddy as he climbed into the bed next to him. He tried
to extricate Yuu's limbs that were wrapped around himself, trying to get closer
to the omega. Trying to get Yuu to wrap his arms around him again. Yet he was
being stubborn again.
"Wrap your arms around me, Yuu-chan."
His eyes shot open. "What? No!"
'No?!' Yuu was seriously telling him no? Mika growled low, rolling Yuu to his
back and climbing on top of him, he ripped open Yuu's black dress shirt.
"Ah! S-stop!"
Mika grazed his teeth against Yuu's scent gland between his neck and shoulder,
releasing more of his omega pheromones and trying to make Yuu submit.
Yuu-chan was acting foolish. His stubbornness was only going to cause him more
pain, and Mika's instincts were telling him to ease it. But the omega was
fighting it. And Mika didn't understand it at all.
This had to be Yuu's first time in heat, that much was obvious. He had
"presented", or reached sexual maturity some would say. And it could be a
harrowing experience, especially for an omega. But still, Yuu shouldn't be THIS
insistent about getting away from Mika.
He bit down on Yuu's neck harder, rubbing his aching cock against him and
trailing his hands from his shoulders, down the plains and dips of his sculpted
torso until he reached his belt buckle. Pausing there. He felt the slightest
buck of Yuu's hips, causing Mika to grin against Yuu's neck at the subtle
invitation. He DID want Mika on some level. He just had to make the omega stop
being shy and stubborn about it.
Releasing his bite, Mika trailed kisses down Yuu's neck and chest. Making quick
work of the belt buckle and began to slide the boys pants off. But Yuu grasped
Mika's wrist before he could even make any progress.
"What-what are you doing?!" Yuu asked with a horrified expression.
"Relax Yuu-chan. I'll make you feel better." Mika licked at his neck more.
"Mnn! B-but, I'm sick! I need to go to the hospital or something!"
"A hospital isn't what you need right now..." Mika murmured.
If possible, Yuu's enticing scent grew stronger. Trembling in anticipation,
Mika dragged Yuu's pants down and off of his legs, ignoring the omega's little
sounds of his half hearted protest until Yuu was left in only his boxers. Mika
licked his top lip at the sight. Yuu was in no way slight and delicate like a
typical omega would be. A jolt of thrill shot up Mika's spine from the sheer
amount of fortune and luck he had been given, embodied in this omega. Mika was
a powerful Alpha. He needed a powerful omega as his counterpart.
He looked up at his face again, and Mika's brows drew together. Yuu was
blushing madly, which was always a cute look on him, but the omega's eyes were
clenched shut so tightly along with his jaw, that Mika knew there was something
seriously wrong.
"Yuu-chan?"
Yuu threw his arms over his face, letting out a choked sob.
Mika blanched. 'This wouldn't do...'
~
Yuu was about to burst from the sheer amount of shame he felt. He couldn't stop
his tears from threatening to spill.
He'd never been in a situation like this before. Hell, he'd never even kissed
anyone before! The incident in the classroom with Mika a few days ago had been
the closest he had ever gotten to having someone kiss him. And as much he hated
to admit, he had wanted him to. Just to dip a toe. Just to see what all the
fuss was about.
Now, he couldn't even control his own body no matter how hard he tried. Curled
into himself as best as he could, trying to will away the arousal, the urges
and sensations this blond was causing. The dirty thoughts his mother would deem
as shameful and horrific and would scald him for if she were still alive.
She had punished him for such inclinations since he was a mere toddler. Though
he was grateful to even have a parent to raise and provide for him, on some
levels he resented her for her harsh treatment. She had raised him with an iron
fist. And that iron fist regularly connected with his face to make sure that
anything and everything related to sex was kept far from his knowledge.
She had caught Yuu curiously touching himself while taking a bath when he was
four years old. Poking and playing with his small erection. Yuu had thought it
was funny. He couldn't control it at his young age. He didn't even understand
it. And she beat his ass until her arm grew tired because of it. Yuu's backside
was sore and red for a week.
In junior high, he had brought home a permission slip for his mother to sign
for a sex ed class the students were to take, but she had shredded it to bits.
Then scalded Yuu for over an hour on how he was stupid for even considering
taking a class on such filth. Sex was dirty and disgusting and he had no
business learning about the mechanisms of it.
She had ingrained that way of thinking into him since childhood. And told him
that he was a demon child if he ever had such horrifying thoughts.
So he had tamped it down and turned away from anything and everything that
might trigger those dirty thoughts. A Victoria secret commercial? Turn away. A
young couple making out in the park? Turn away! A Hustler magazine on display
in the convenient store? TURN AWAY!
Though, he did have a rebellious streak when he was about fifteen. He had been
invited to go to the movies with a couple a guys and girls that he was trying
to make friends with. He knew his mother's rule. He wasn't aloud to watch
anything that was over PG rated. This particular movie was PG-13. He could have
gone home upon learning what movie they were going to be watching and it's out
of boundary rating, but he had taken both the subway AND a bus to get all the
way downtown to meet with these people. He desperately wanted some friends, and
leaving wouldn't be a good move to make if he wanted any. So Yuu had bought the
ticket. And when a fairly innocent to others, but a horrifying love scene to
Yuu, showed on the big screen, he had clamped his eyes shut and covered his
ears until it was over. The people he had went to the movies with had thought
he was a freak. And had never asked him to hang out with them again. When he
got home, his mother had asked to see the ticket stub for the movie they saw.
When Yuu nervously handed it to her, she had slapped him soundly across the
face and grounded him for a week.
Around the same time in his life, the whole wet dream stage had started. The
first time it had happened, he woke before he had came. Horrified with himself
and desperately trying to tamp down the images of the dream he had. Not knowing
what else to do, because he surely couldn't touch himself, he had exercised in
his room for the next two hours. Doing push ups and sit ups and anything else
strenuous to burn off the sexual frustration until his erection had waned, and
he had nearly collapsed from exhaustion. And he had continued that routine
whenever sexual thoughts or urges had surfaced. Going for strenuous runs or
exercising until he could hardly think at all.
Then when he was sixteen, he had taken up cursing. Words were innocent enough
of an outlet for all his pent up and repressed sexuality. And if he cursed like
a sailor, perhaps other students wouldn't know how ignorant he was. Though he
didn't really know what a lot of the words meant, it felt good to say them.
 
But now? Yuu couldn't do a goddamn thing! He couldn't go for a run. He couldn't
or do push ups with his arms and legs feeling so gelatinous and weak. He was
stuck lying here with only his thoughts and his body's onslaught of urges and
desires threatening to overtake him. He wanted to cry. He felt so much shame
and degradation that he could choke from it. And at the same time, he was
loving the feeling of Mika touching him and being so close to him. This
beautiful blond young man was making him feel things he had never felt before,
and it was heightening all of his sensations ten-fold. Yuu shook with the
effort to hold in his useless tears as a wave of searing heat and arousal shot
through him once again. He threw his arms over his face as Mika pulled down his
pants, and choked out a sob he had been holding in.
"Yuu-chan?" He heard the blond say in a gentle tone. Then he felt hands trying
to pull his weak arms form his face. "Yuu, whats wrong?"
Mika had succeeded in extricating Yuu's arms but the omega kept his eyes
squeezed shut.
"Yuu-chan, please, look at me." Mika cupped his face gently. Yuu peeked up at
him with narrowed eyes.
"Why are you so upset?" Mika asked. "What you're feeling is normal for an
omega. I promise you, this is all perfectly natural. You don't have to be
afraid." He spoke so softly as he rubbed a thumb against Yuu's parted lips.
Making Yuu shiver as he gazed at Mika's beautiful face, drawn in concern.
'Wait...what did Mika just say?' "Whats an omega?" Yuu asked.
Mika cocked his head slightly at the question. "You are."
"What's that supposed to mean?" Yuu shot back. "I'm a beta!"
Mika's lips quirked. "I assure you, you're not." He ran a hand down Yuu's chest
in fascination.
Yuu squirmed. "W-wait! What the fuck does being an omega mean? Are you saying
I'm an Anti-beta? Are you one too?!" He tried the scramble away from the blond,
but the effort was too much for him to handle, as he didn't make much progress.
Mika flinched at the use of the word "Anti-beta", but he answered "That's what
the racist beta's call us, but yes. To answer your question, I'm an alpha. And
like it or not you're not a beta either." Mika loomed over him. "You're an
omega. And you're in heat. And the pain you're feeling will only get worse
unless you let an alpha sooth it. That's where I come in-so to speak." Mika
smirked.
'Sooth it...?' Mika's voice was so low and raspy and he had such a wicked gleam
in his eye, that Yuu caught his meaning.
"W-what?! B-but I'm a male!"
"Mmm...A beautiful male..." Mika groaned as he began trailing kisses down Yuu's
stomach.
It made his toes curl, but Yuu pushed his head away. "But Mika, I'm not gay!"
Mika growled low again and he grasped Yuu's shoving hands. He glared at the
stubborn omega. He was growing inpatient. "Look Yuu, sexual orientation doesn't
exist in our world. We're Alpha and Omega and that's all there is to it!" Then
Mika sighed wearily at Yuu's still stricken look. Releasing his hands. "If you
really hate me touching you that much, then I'll leave. I'm not going to force
myself on you. But I'll tell you, it sure as hell wont be easy for me. I've
wanted to be with you like this for a while, even though I thought you were a
beta. Which was a first for me." His face softened towards Yuu. "I...I really
like you, Yuu-chan."
"Wait, what?" Yuu blinked up at him. "You do?"
Mika gave him a look, as if to say 'obviously'.
Yuu looked off to the side again. Nobody had ever said they had liked him
before. Nobody had really ever shown him they had an inkling of feelings for
him. This was confusing. He had just tried to live his daily life as best he
could. Sure he had inner struggle when it came to things such as tasks, or
trying not be a weirdo so he could make friends. His inner battles with his
emotions and hormones were remedied by workouts. He didn't introspect about it.
He just acted. And he slept better at night because of it. But now he was about
to introspect over his situation with Mika. Which was a first for him, because
he DIDNT FUCKING INTROSPECT...'God dammit...'
One the one hand~He had been told by his mother that sex was disgusting and he
should never take part in it.
Guren had told him that 'Anti-beta's' were dangerous and needed to be steered
clear of or eliminated.
On the other hand~'God help me', Mika was offering to open doors to that
curious part of life that Yuu was never aloud to explore before. Was saying
that he liked him and wanted him. Was he saying those things just to get in his
pants? Maybe. But the opportunity to explore had presented itself.
Was he really an omega like Mika had said? Most likely. Why else would this be
happening? He didn't understand it, but something in him knew himself enough to
know that this wasn't a beta thing he was feeling. And his body was in complete
agreement with the exploring idea.
Then there was Guren, telling him that Mika's type, and apparently Yuu's, was
dangerous. He looked at the blond again. Was Mika dangerous? Perhaps. But not
in the violent and destructive sort of way. More of a...forbidden fruit kind of
way. And Yuu's body was the serpent whispering in his ear, telling him "Just
one bite..."
Yuu's toes curled at the realization. He was sick of being repressed...Sick of
being told what he should think and how he should act. Yuu wanted to do what
Yuu wanted for once. He wanted to break free of the proverbial chains. And not
only tip a toe in. Not only take a single bite. But to devour and be
devoured...
'I guess I really am a demon child. Sorry mom and dad!' Yuu almost laughed out
loud at his own musings. 'I'll see you all in hell.'

He noticed that Mika had been studying him closely. Trying to figure out what
was going on in the omega's head.
Now posed the problem about how to tell the obviously experienced...'Alpha'
(Shivers), that Yuu was woefully ignorant and inexperienced when it came to
something like this. Yuu wasn't exactly sure how sex worked between two guys.
"Mika I..." Yuu let out a shaky breath. 'I cant believe I'm going to go through
with this!' "I'm not really sure what...you know...or how, I mean...like, I've
never even kissed somebody before, sooo..." He was looking everywhere but the
blond's face.
Mika cocked his head again. Yuu noticed that he did that whenever Yuu said
something that Mika had found curious. "Really Yuu-chan? Never?"
Yuu shrugged his shoulders. Trying for nonchalance. It looked stupid. He
blushed harder. 'Idiot! Why did you say that?!'
Mika's calm visage broke into that breathtaking smile, making Yuu swallow
thickly.
"Yuu-chan..." Mika breathed as he loomed over him again. "We'll have to remedy
that then..."
With Yuu's eyes still widened in shock, Mika leaned in. And gently at first,
pressed his lips against his. It made Yuu's lips tingle. It made everything
tingle. He was sure even the ends of his hair tingled! 'This feels great...'
Yuu slid his eyes closed and parted his lips on a breath, allowing Mika to slip
his tongue inside to deepen the kiss and cup his face. His head swam.
Yuu wasn't sure what to do with his own hands, so he opted for carding his
fingers through his blond hair. 'So soft...'
Yuu's shaft twitched and his entrance clenched as more wetness flowed from him.
But there wasn't the clenching pain anymore. In fact, he hardly felt any pain
at all. Just this uncomfortable emptiness inside of him. Like something was
missing. But the sensations of everything happening to his body felt right.
~
Mika broke from the kiss slowly, rapidly blinking his cloudy eyes to clear his
frenzied mind. Blue eyes poured into glossy green. Mika had never felt anything
like that before.
"Wow..." Yuu breathed.
"Ya..." Apparently Yuu had felt it too. It was electrical. It was like gravity.
It was a force of nature so much stronger than himself. And he nearly jolted
when his mind screamed 'Yours!' 'Mine...' This omega was his...
Overwhelming possessiveness came over him. His breathing grew labored at his
stunned revelation. Reality crashing into him with the force of a tidal wave.
This was his omega. His mate for life. "Holy shit..."
"What?!" Yuu blanched.
But Mika didn't say another word as he crushed his lips against Yuu's once
more. This time he wasn't gentle. This time the kiss was desperate. Yuu gripped
Mika's hair as he tried to keep up with his rough, frantic kisses. He rocked
his erection against Yuu's as he tore off his shirt, wanting to get closer.
Wanting to be skin to skin. Buttons popped and went flying, but Mika didn't
care. He just needed more contact. Wanted to all but fucking meld with Yuu-chan
and become one person.
Somehow without breaking their kiss, he wriggled out of his own pants, hissing
into the omega's mouth when his erection sprang free. Cool air hitting his
precum slickened cock. Yuu huffed when Mika gripped the omega's hips and
pressed his hardness against the others with more force, rolling his hips
against him. The friction felt good, but it wasn't enough. He needed inside,
needed to be enveloped by Yuu's hot slick tightness.
There were pros and cons to having sex with a virgin. The con being that Mika
would need to try and be gentle. Easier said than done. The pro however...
The alpha broke his kiss and knelt between Yuu's legs, and began tugging down
the waistband of the omega's boxers. Yuu sat up suddenly. 'No! Don't back out
now! We're so close!'
"Hold on a sec Mika, how is this supposed to work?"
Mika quirked a brow. 'Oblivious Yuu-chan is so adorable!' "I'm pretty sure you
know the answer to that Yuu-chan..."
Yuu's eyes widened in comprehension, but he did lay back down, giving Mika a
hesitant nod. Allowing the blond to completely unclothe him. Mika licked his
lips as he leaned back to take in Yuu's body in all it's naked glory. 'He's
perfect...' All smooth, chiseled plains and slightly flared hips.
Yuu wriggled uncomfortably under his gaze. "Mika?"
He snapped his eyes back to to Yuu's face.
"Is it, is it going to hurt?" Yuu's question was directed towards Mika's
larger, heavy length straining towards him.
Mika tried for a reassuring smile, bringing his fingers to Yuu's soaked
entrance. "Maybe a little. But I'll prepare you." He said matter of factly.
"Prepare-AH!" Yuu jerked at the sudden intrusion of one of Mika's fingers
sliding into his ass. He buried his face in his hands as his face flamed in
embarrassment
"Does it hurt Yuu-chan?"
"It's weird!"
"But does it feel good?"
Yuu paused a moment before he nodded, still hiding his beet red face.
Mika reached up with a free hand to pry Yuu's away. "I want to see you." He
whispered
Reluctantly, he removed them. But now Yuu didn't know what to do with them.
Seeings Yuu's inner struggle, Mika grasped one of his hands to place it around
Yuu's dick, gesturing for him to stroke himself then thumbed at the boy's hard
nipple. Instantly, he felt more slick pour from the omega's opening as he took
his own pleasure The boy was awkward with the motions and embarrassed by what
they were doing, but he was getting the hang of it.
Feeling that Yuu was relaxing his clenching hole, Mika slipped a second finger
inside. Scissoring them to stretch the sheath.
"Aah god!" Yuu gasped, biting the knuckles of his free hand. It hadn't hurt, in
fact, the feeling gave him some relief from the emptiness. But it was still
foreign to Yuu. And the fullness combined with him stroking himself was making
the base of his spine tingle. More of that wet feeling flowed from him. "Mika,
what's all that wet stuff?" Yuu was almost too afraid to find out.
"It's your slick." Mika rasped. "A self lubricant that helps things go
more...smoothly." He removed his soaked fingers and sucked them between his
lips.
Yuu blanched. Mouth gaping open in shock. "Y-you just, you just ate it!" He
wrinkled his nose at the blond.
"Mmhm..." Mika smirked down at him as he licked the remaing slick from his
fingers. "You taste amazing..."
Yuu blinked at him. "Um...ok..."
Then Mika looped an arm under one of Yuu's knees, spreading him wide and
guiding his cock towards the omega's entrance. Mika trembled in anticipation.
Before Yuu could second guess his decision, the alpha slid the head of his cock
in. Delicious heat and wetness engulfed him. Inch by throbbing inch, he eased
himself inside, pushing past the resistance of the ring of muscle clenching
around him. The fit was so tight, it was almost painful. And he was only
halfway in.
"Ah! Ow! Stop, stop!" Yuu protested as he pushed against Mika's sculpted
stomach to get him out of him. The burning sensation of being stretched so wide
by the alpha fucking hurt like hell! Yuu clenched harder in reflex.
'Oh fuck!' The pressure became too much, it was almost his undoing. He pulled
out swiftly before he could cum, gripping the head of his dick painfully to
keep his seed from spontaneously erupting from him. 'Damn it! Get it together
Mikaela!' He mused that he was behaving like a randy boy who just touched his
first tit. Where the hell had his stamina gone?!
He took a few steadying breaths as he felt the pressure of his orgasm recede.
Yuu stared at him quizzically. Likely wondering what had just happened.
Stalling to build more stamina and keep Yuu in a resplendent mood, he bent to
run his tongue over the omega's cock from base to tip, before swallowing his
length fully down his throat.
"Holy fucking shit!" Yuu bit out and he dug his fingers into Mika's soft hair.
He smirked around Yuu's length and sucked harder. Eliciting little sounds of
pleasure from the omega. He loved the noises he was making.
Releasing his dick with an audible pop and ignoring the string of saliva still
connected to his lips, he drove into Yuu's ass again. Yuu cried out with a raw
voice, but he didn't try to push him away this time. The omega gritted his
teeth, fighting through the pain. Sweat began glistening his chest.
Mika managed to get almost all the way in before his cum started climbing again
and he had to pull out once more to grip his cock to stop the flow. Causing Yuu
to whimper from the loss. He sucked the boy into his mouth again while he
waited. Reveling in how Yuu was thrusting up into his mouth, as if demanding
more. Even though Mika's own cock throbbed as if he had slammed it in a door
from his self inflicted orgasm denial, he couldn't get enough of this. And
apparently Yuu-chan LOVED getting head. 'Good to know!'
When Mika was ready once more, he sheathed himself slowly, all the way to the
hilt. He gasped in relief. The slick tightness felt so damn good around his
aching shaft. He gave a few experimental thrusts, making Yuu throw his head
back against the pillow and hiss through his teeth. Mika was about to pull out
again to suck him more, but Yuu stayed him by wrapping a leg around his hip.
"D-don't..don't pull out..."
Mika looked into his glistening wet eyes, trying to stifle his sly grin. And
failed. "That's it...my sweet Yuu-chan..." He leaned down to take Yuu's soft
wet mouth and thrust into his body deeper. The kiss was just as electrifying as
the first, and combined with his cock plunging slowly into that tight heat, it
made his head swim and his breath hitch with every inward plunge. He thrust his
tongue into Yuu's mouth in time with his ministrations.
Yuu moaned, wrapping his legs about Mika's hips and gripping his hair with
shaking hands. "Faster Mika..." He murmured against his mouth.
Did he just hear him right? "You want me to fuck you faster Yuu-chan?" he
breathed.
"Yes..."
Mika groaned. Hearing Yuu's demand for faster made warmth pool in the pit of
his stomach. He had to grit his teeth to keep from instantly coming again.
He sat back on his knees and threw one of Yuu's legs over his shoulder and held
it in place by the ankle, seating himself so deep and picking up the pace.
Yuu's eyes widened and he cried out in pleasure. Mika smirked as he nibbled
Yuu's calf muscle. Knowing that he was hitting that spot.
He angled his hips to get at the sweet spot better, assaulting it with his
cockhead over and over, and over again until Yuu's head thrashed and he was a
hot moaning drooling mess.
“Mikaaaa!” Yuu keened. “What are you doing to meee!?”
Mika bucked harder, his movements growing frantic. “Yes Yuu-chan yes! Take it
baby. Ah god you're amazing-” Mika bit his lip as Yuu raised his hips to meet
Mika's every thrust. Wanting more. Mika gave it to him.
Yuu's hands were otherwise occupied holding the pillow behind his head in a
death grip, so Mika moved his free hand to grip Yuu's dick. Thumbing the slit
and rubbing his precum over the head.
Yuu's moans grew sharp and more frequent, nearing his point of no return. 'Fuck
his moans are hot.' Mika thought as he fucked him harder. Their skin slapped
together wetly from Yuu's slick and Mika felt the knot in the base of his cock
forming. He panted hotly against the inside of Yuu's knee, taking in the
omega's stunning face drawn in both agony and solace. A line of drool formed at
the corner of his kiss swollen mouth. 'So close...so close...not yet...' Mika
chanted to himself, trying to keep himself from coming until Yuu had first.
"Look at me Yuu-chan..."
He slid open his glossy green eyes, hooded gaze locking with Mika's own. The
prolonged eyes contact felt intense. Yuu's mouth fell open on a breath, and he
fluttered them shut again as he gasped. Arching his back sharply, Yuu exploded
with extacy. Crying out Mika's name like a prayer as cum lashed his torso and
slick poured from him like a fountain. Dripping along Mika's tightening sack
and Yuu's ass and soaking the sheets beneath them. Stars burst behind his
eyelids as he raked his nails down Mika's hard chest while the alpha continued
fucking him relentlessly through the omega's orgasm.
Yuu's sheath clenched around Mika's insistent cock and he throbbed and spasmed
from the onslaught. Mika threw back his head and moaned fiercely, nigh
bellowing to the ceiling at the feeling of having his cock milked by Yuu's
pulsating tightness, his voice rising an octave as his cum shot into the omega
in a blinding rush. Going on and on, until it had felt like his very soul was
being poured into Yuu. It was agonizing. It was incredible. It was perfect.
With three final halting pumps of his hips, he seated himself deep as his knot
rose to its place below the head of Mika's cock, locking the alpha inside of
the omega.
Without a second thought, Mika surrendered Yuu's leg from over his shoulder and
lay atop him to place his mouth over Yuu's neck. Sinking his teeth into the
omega's scent gland, infusing Yuu's body with his alpha scent and marking him.
Claiming the omega as his, and his alone. 'I'm never giving this up!'
 
~
Yuu's mind was building castle's in the air. 'So this what all the fuss was
about...'
How his mother ever figured that sex was disgusting and dirty was beyond him.
Maybe it was a little messy he supposed, and kind of painful in the beginning.
But the pain had seemed like a fleeting memory compared to the earth shattering
pleasure his had just experienced.
He was in such a high that he didn't even feel it when Mika had sunk his teeth
into the area between his neck and shoulder. Yet now that he was coming down
from cloud nine, it started to burn. And reasonable thought surfaced once
again. What did he bite him for?!
Mika licked and kissed at the small wound he had made, soothing some of the
burning pain. “You're mine now Yuu-chan.” Mika cupped the back of his head as
the blond shuttered against him. “I'm never going to let you go. Ok?”
“Oh...ok...” What did he mean? Yuu wondered. Like, they were a couple now? And
why did that thought cause such a funny feeling of his heart doing pirouettes
in his chest? Yuu wrapped his arms around Mika and nuzzled his face into that
spot where his scent was strongest. Inhaling deeply. “So, am I like, your
boyfriend or something?” Yuu asked shyly.
Mika chuckled against him. “You can call it that. Sure!”
Yuu smiled. Mika wasn't the kind of guy to just nail and bail. He truly liked
him and wanted to be with him. Yuu felt giddy. He couldn't stop smiling like a
lunatic. He wanted to laugh and cry at the same time.
He realized then, that he had never had a real connection like this to anyone.
Never felt this close and this happy just to be near them. Not his mother, not
Guren, none of his friends both past and present. It was something he had been
missing for his entire lonely life. Somebody actually chose him, and wanted him
to be a part of theirs...
Yuu chuffed out a strange sound, somewhere between a sob and a giggle. Causing
Mika to look over at him quizzically.
“What is it Yuu?”
He made the weird noise again, squeezing his eyes shut in embarrassment but his
smile remained. “Nothing Mika, I just feel...happy. That's all.”
Mika smiled in return, and slanted his lips over Yuu's in a soft kiss before
plopping his forehead on the pillow under Yuu's head with a satisfied huff.
Yuu wriggled from the still insanely tight fit of Mika's cock in him. 'Isn't
your erection supposed to like, go back down? Like mine?' he wondered. But the
stretch felt tighter than ever. Almost uncomfortably so. “We should probably
change these sheets Mika.” The wetness under him was cooling rapidly and
chilling him. He moved to push Mika out of him.
“Yuu wait!”
“AH! What the fucking OUCH!” Searing pain shot up his spine as he tried to
remove Mika's shaft, but they were stuck together! “What the hell is going on?”
Mika grit his teeth. That must have hurt him too. “Sorry Yuu-chan, I should
have told you. We're gonna be stuck like this for a while.”
“What?” Yuu blanched. “How come?”
“Because I knotted you, so...like...Christ how do I explain this? I've never
had to explain this to somebody.” Mika blushed.
Mika blushed!? Yuu giggled. This confident mouthwatering blond could even
become embarrassed. “I think I get it Mika.” Yuu wasn't as much of an idiot as
everyone thought him to be. Sure he was ignorant and dense, but not stupid.
He'd taking a course on animal biology. And Yuu could feel what it was inside
of him. Like one certain area was bulging larger than the rest, making the fit
so tight you couldn't separate.
It was a male canid feature, which was obviously strange for a human to
possess. But if that was an alpha trait and Yuu's self lubricating was an omega
trait, then who was he to nay-say? Yuu figured it would be the safest route if
he kept an open mind about all of this.
“How long are we going to be stuck like this?” Yuu asked.
Clearly relieved that he didn't have to try to explain his knotting situation,
he answered with another smile, “Maybe ten or fifteen minutes.” He nuzzled
Yuu's neck as he gently repositioned them to their sides so they could lay
facing each other. And so they were no longer laying in slick dampened spot on
the bed. “I wasn't planning on letting you go anywhere anyway.” Mika kissed him
again. Short and roughly. “We only just got started.”

After Mika was finally able to pull out of him, he had dragged Yuu on wobbly
legs to the bathroom for a shower.
It started innocently enough. They each washed their own hair, with the air
between them growing thicker with each minute. That wicked gleam in the blond's
eyes returned as he looked at Yuu appraisingly. Making the omega shiver as his
heat was triggered once again. Slick dripping down his thighs.
“Can I wash your back, Yuu-chan?” Mika said candidly as he held up a bottle of
Sandalwood scented body wash.
Biting his lip, Yuu faced away to give him his back, bracing himself by resting
his palms on tiled wall of the shower.
With sweeping hands and a businesslike demeanor, the blond rubbed soap all over
his body. Being shockingly thorough with certain parts of him, before his touch
grew more languid and lingering. He reached around to his front to grasp Yuu's
already stiffening length, making the omega groan and arch his back until his
ass rubbed against Mika's hard on.
Declaring playtime over, Mika dropped to his knees behind him and palmed the
curves of Yuu's firm round ass. Tentatively at first, he snaked his tongue over
his entrance, tasting the sweet bite of the omega's slick, then plunged his
tongue into his wet hole. Probing the entrance over and over.
“M-Mikaa! What are you doing?!” Yuu protested as he tried to wiggle away.
Mika paused to nip at one of Yuu's ass cheeks. “Shut up.” Then continued
fucking him with his tongue.
Yuu blanched at the blond over his shoulder, before resting his forehead on the
wall between his trembling hands. 'This is weird...this is fucking weird! This
is- Oh fuck it -'
“God damn, that feels amazing...” Yuu groaned.
His words earning a low growl from Mika that reverberated through his core. The
alpha rose once more and pressed on Yuu's shoulders to bend him over further,
then gripped his hips and plunged into Yuu's entrance with one swift thrust.
He relentlessly pounded into him, already remembered where Yuu's sweet spot
was, and hit it every time, until Yuu was moaning and gasping and coming around
around Mika's thickness as the alpha knotted him again.
Mika had to hold Yuu flush to him and sink to his knees to let the omega slump
in his lap from the aftershocks of his release, as they waited for the time
when they could separate once again.
~
After changing the bedding, mostly with Mika just ripping the soiled sheets off
the bed and throwing multiple blankets over it as Yuu stared at the floor
ruefully, then climbed back into the bed. Still unclothed, they lay together
facing each other. Yuu watched Mika's golden hair dry into artfully disheveled
waves. Limbs entangled for warmth under the soft comforter as they breathed
each others air, basking in their afterglow as they talked about their pasts.
Yuu lightly touched on topics about his mother and her abuse and why she was
the cause of his ignorance about sex and relationships, and about his hard time
fitting in and making friends because of his PG rated lifestyle. Not really
revealing anything about Guren other than the fact that he was not as strict as
his mother was, but still a douche nonetheless. Which he felt guilty
complaining about upon learning about Mika's own past.
Mika's parents had thrown him from a moving car when he was three years old.
He'd broken his arm and was left with scrapes and bruises but obviously
survived, unbeknownst to his mom and dad. Yuu was horrified by what had
happened to the blond, but Mika just smiled weakly, he was at peace with it.
Saying that all beta parents disposed of their non-beta children. It was
nothing new. The beta parent could risk getting arrested and deported
themselves by JIDA for harboring an Anti-beta, regardless of it being their
child or not.
A day after Mika was thrown for the car, a young woman had found him and took
him in. An alpha woman named Krul Tepes. She had raised him until he was 14,
when Mika presented. And declared him grown enough then to take care of
himself. She'd provided everything he needed to live on his own, as long as he
remained responsible and obtained good grades and kept his status secret, or
else she would cut him off. She rented him a small house with a privacy fence,
bought him a car when he was old enough to drive, got him into top rated Junior
high and High schools. Getting good grades for Mika was easy. He was an honor
student.
Though after Krul had left for her own goals in life, he didnt speak to her
anymore. She had frequently sent him cards, letters and gifts during holidays,
but always from an anonymous address, so he was never able to write her back.
It was also around the same time she had left, that Mika had met Shinoa, their
first encounter being the time she had kicked him in the head while he was
rutting that omega girl. (Though Mika left that particular part out) He was
terrified that he had been found out by a beta, hating himself for his lack of
control and for being so careless. He was almost positive that JIDA would show
up any day to arrest him and take him away. But that day never came. And he had
learned not too long after that Shinoa had been covering Mika's tracks.
Sneaking into the security office at the schools and erasing footage of him
from the school's surveillance. Coming up with excuses for him whenever he
showed odd alpha behavior. She'd also been doing this for the other alpha's and
omega's at the school, who Shinoa had eventually introduced him to. Some one
them being the same group of people that Yuu-chan had found friends in.
Why she would stick her neck out for Alpha's and Omega's to protect them from
JIDA? Apparently because Shinoa had once had an omega older sister named Mahiru
when she was a baby. She had been the only person to take care of Shinoa
throughout infancy, since Shinoa's mother had died at childbirth and her father
was too busy with his job the be around. She didn't really remember her sister,
but the fact that she was the only one there for her had ingrained a love for
her sister within Shinoa, despite her being an omega. And that love had carried
over for other omega's and alpha's because she knew the truth. That non-beta's
were just as loving and family oriented as beta's were. In many cases, even
more so. Beta's typically had a very cold attitude towards their children
unless they were useful and productive.
But her sister had disappeared one day, leaving an infant Shinoa with nannies
and caregivers. Shinoa would have resented her, but she had eventually learned
the truth about her sister from her fathers files.
Being the expert snoop that she was, she had found out that Mahiru had been
involved in a secret relationship with a unknown beta male. The deal with her
father was that he wouldn't take her away if she sacrificed herself for the
greater good and allowed her fathers scientists at JIDA to experiment on her.
Combined with taking care of Shinoa, she was allowed to live. Until at 17, she
was suddenly taken away by her own father.,JIDA's leader Kureto Hiiragi.
Apparently because of her relationship with the beta.
Then Mika went on the talk about the rest of the group. Kimizuki had had an
omega sister as well. But she was a few years younger than him. Their parents
had disposed of both of them at once. Two non-beta children? Twice the risk.
But Kimizuki's sister had died years ago from a rare illness only omega females
could contract. There was no treatment for it of course in this fucked up world
they lived in. And Kimizuki couldn't take her to a normal hospital for risk of
being exposed. So he had tried everything he could to nurse her back to health
on his own. But nothing had worked. He had buried his sister himself in an
unmarked grave.
Both Yoichi's and Mistuba's older siblings were beta's, and had succeeded in
hiding their non-beta counterparts from JIDA after their parents of had
disposed of the children. Keeping them secretly hidden with friends or other
omega's or alpha's until they had been found out. JIDA arrested the beta
siblings for harboring abominations, yet the Anti-beta children were never
found.
Mika told Yuu, that each parent had tried to do the honorable thing and not
dispose of their children as soon as they were born. And had tried to raise
them in secret. But the pressure had been too much for them. Which Mika had
thought was more inhumane than anything. Yuu tried to argue this, but Mika was
firm about the topic. If they tried to raise them in secret, and the risk got
too high, they then had this half grown omega or alpha child who trusted them,
loved them and knew them. And then that said parent had to either kill the
child or leave them abandoned somewhere. Murdering a baby was terrible, Mika
couldn't deny that. But it was honestly hard to distinguish which scenario was
worse.
~
Yuu pondered this. He was almost grateful for his own fucked up life. Sure his
mother hit him a lot, and his father was never around. But they had never tried
to kill him or get rid of him. They must have really never known, but how? “How
could the other parents know what their children were but mine couldn't?”
“Home administered blood tests?” Mika answered. “A drop of blood on an Anti-
beta test strip could determine their status. They might have never tested
you.”
They were difficult to get, since JIDA would track anyone who bought them. A
suspicious parent was a guilty parent. Although there were ways to get around
being tracked by them. But it wasn't easy.
How it worked, was if the drop of blood stayed red upon coming into contact
with the chemicals on the test strip, they were a beta. If it lightened to a
pink color, omega. If it turned blue, alpha. A lot of parents tested their
children. Yuu's must not have. And Yuu certainly didn't look like a typical
omega. He had more of a beta's body type. Which made him less conspicuous. And
since Yuu was such a late bloomer, it made sense. If you were young when you
presented, your body would change throughout puberty to fit it's status. The
older you got before you present, the more beta you appeared.
It was all so strange and hard for Yuu to believe. And honestly, a bit
terrifying. But Mika seemed to have an answer for everything. The woman who
raised him had educated him well. And he constantly reassured Yuu that he would
be protected from JIDA if it was the last thing Mika did.
Yuu almost scoffed. As if he'd let Mika put himself in danger at his expense?
'Over my dead body!' He'd never let another person be a scapegoat for him!
Especially Mika! If Yuu fucked up, that was on himself. These people worked too
hard to cover their tracks and to obtain some resemblance of freedom.
~
Suddenly, Mika rolled over to loom above the omega. “Yuu-chan...” He said, a
tone of warning in his low voice.
“Huh? What?” Yuu's eyes widened.
“Stop thinking those things.”
“What things? What are you, a mind reader?” Yuu scowled.
“No, but you have that look on your face.”
“What look?!”
Mika touched noses with him. “You're being stubborn again.”
“I am NOT stubborn!”
Mika quirked a brow at that, giving him a blank look. Then he sighed. “Just
promise me something, ok?”
“Depends on what it is.” Yuu said as he narrowed his eyes on him.
Mika ghosted his mouth against Yuu's neck. 'Now he's just not playing fair!'
Yuu thought.
“Please, Yuu-chan. Promise me, if a day ever comes when they catch me or any of
our friends, that you won't do anything reckless. That you will keep yourself
hidden no matter what.”
Yuu shoved at the blond. “I cant promise something like that! Stop being all
gallant Mika! It's annoying!”
Mika looked into his eyes with an earnest expression. “I'm being serious Yuu.
You aren't suspicious because you have a family. But all of us are always at
risk, I don't want you to be caught off guard if something happens.” Mika
rested his forehead against Yuu's. “Please, just promise. Give me some peace of
mind to hold on to if I ever end up in a cell or a camp.”
Yuu chuffed out a breath. “Fine. If it will shut you up about this subject,
then I'll promise.” Even though he mentally crossed his fingers at the lie.
Mika clicked his tongue. “You really are stubborn.” He nuzzled him again. “But
thank you.”
~
He gave Yuu a heated kiss. Licking at his mouth to gain entrance. Pillow talk
was clearly over. He ran his hands along Yuu's waist and down his thighs,
spreading his legs wide and moving to kneel between them. Breaking the kiss,
Mika grasped the back of Yuu's knees and forced his legs over the blond's
shoulders.
“Oi! Mika, haven't you had enough?!” Yuu gasped out.
Mika gripped his hips hard to hold him down as Yuu halfheartedly tried to
escape, the omega already becoming slick as his body heated of it's own accord.
Readying to be taken my this alpha again.
“I'll never get enough.” Mika rasped as he inched himself into Yuu's wet
sheath.
He arched his back and rolled his hips to meet Mika's thrusts. Completely
surrendering. 'Stubborn am I?' Yuu vaguely thought. 'Christ, it's deep this
way!'
~
Once they had finished and lay in a blissful haze, all Yuu could focus on was
the aftershock of his orgasm and Mika's knot buried deep inside him. How much
his hips and legs ached from their strenuous activities. He was so out of it,
that he barely registered the soft ringing noise in the room.
“What's that sound?” Yuu asked, blinking open his bleary eyes while he stroked
Mika's hair.
“Dunno Yuu-chan...” Mika muffled against his neck. “Maybe it's Jesus...”
“Oh...” Yuu slid his eyes closed again in exhaustion. Only to snap them open
again with a start. 'That was my phone!' “Mika! My phone!”
“Huh?”
“Somebody's calling me!” And Yuu knew exactly who it might be.
Mika reached over the edge of the bed to rifle through Yuu's pants pockets
until he retrieved the source of the ringing, handing it to Yuu.
Yuu looked at it. Guren was calling. 'Fuck! What time was it?!' It was 10:12pm.
'Fuck fuck fuck!' Hands shaking, Yuu answered the call. “Hello?”
“Do you have ANY idea what time it is?!”
Yuu flinched from the shouting Guren over the phone. “S-sorry Guren!” Dammit!
Yuu's voice still sounded raw. He cleared his throat as his came up with an
excuse. “I was studying at a friends house. He's tutoring me...” Yuu blushed
hotly at his use of the word 'Tutoring'. And Mika's smirking sure as hell
didn't help!
“Yuu, you better be walking through this door in 10 minutes!” Gurens voice was
low. Almost sounding threatening. As if he was about to say 'Or Else.'
But 10 minutes?! He and Mika were still stuck together for at least another 5!
“Well...it might take a little longer than that. Um...we aren't done yet...”
Inner cringe at use of stupid words. 'Stupid brain!' “Ya, we have this test
tomorrow. So excuse me for trying to meet your standards!” 'Ok good. Defenses
are back online.' “Sorry I lost track of time! Happy now?” Yuu thought he
sounded pretty convincing. But the long pause over the phone was making him
sweat.
“20 minutes and that's final. I mean it Hyakuya!” Then he hung up.
'Fucking asshole.'
~
Mika sped down the highway at a hectic pace. Seeming more panicked than Yuu
was.
“Mika, Guren's always a dickhead. You don't need to almost kill us just to get
me home!”
“I have it completely under control.” He said confidently. Apparently Mika was
'in the zone'. Even though he almost traded paint with another car that he
passed driving too slow in the fast lane.
“Fucking hell!” Yuu screeched at the near miss. “Who taught you how to drive?!”
Mika chanced a glance at him. “I taught myself.”
'Well that explains a lot.'
They pulled in front of Yuu's house with 2 minutes to spare. And still in one
piece. 'Thank you God!'
Mika eyed the one-story, modern, and obviously expensive house that was Yuu's
home. He almost whistled low at it, but stifled the urge. Vaguely wondering
what kind of work Yuu's father did to afford such a nice place. But Mika didn't
ask. He'd rather spend the next 2 minutes kissing his lover.
He gave Yuu a chaste kiss on the mouth, but Yuu followed his lips as the blond
pulled away. He sifted his fingers through Mika's hair as their lips made
contact again, Yuu deepening the kiss. Mika cupped his face in return and
canted his head to better meld their lips together.
Both boys pulled away at the same time, before their goodbye kiss turned into a
full on makeout session.
“I'll see you at school tomorrow Yuu-chan?” He breathed heavily.
“Ya.” Yuu panted in answer. Then he opened the passenger door, looking back at
Mika once more as he grabbed his backpack. “Goodnight...” Yuu said with a
secretive smile that made Mika part his lips as his stomach filled with a
strange fluttering sensation. Causing the Alpha to blush.
Before Mika could say anything, Yuu hopped out of the car and sped towards the
house. Mika watched him the entire way until Yuu had went inside. His lips
quirked. His Yuu-chan was just too cute...
~
Mika's bed felt empty without his omega. But he wrapped his arms tightly around
the pillow that had the majority of Yuu's scent and curled around it. Burying
his face in the plushness and inhaling the smell of Yuu-chan deeply. He missed
the omega already. Was it weird to be this infatuated this quickly? Maybe. But
Mika didn't care. He had never felt this way before...
'Christ...' He cuddled the Yuu-scented pillow harder. He never actually thought
it would be possible to feel such emotion. But it had happened. When Mika fell,
he fell hard. And he was giddy at the prospect of seeing Yuu-chan again.
Squeezing his eyes shut, he tried to force himself to sleep.
But he felt as if he had forgotten something, something important....
Mika eyes snapped open. 'Oh shit!' He sat up, reaching for his phone. 'The
suppressants!'
It had been in the back of his mind all day, but it was forgotten after the
call from Yuu's father.
This was bad. He had knotted the omega three times...while he was in heat!
'Shit!'
He called Yoichi. Musing to himself as he listened to the ringing. -ring- In
all honesty, a pregnant Yuu-chan didn't terrify him like it normally would with
another omega. -ring- Yet at the same time, it terrified him more because Yuu-
chan could be outed as soon as he started showing. -ring- Then he could be
taken from him! 'How could I be so careless?!' -ring-
“Mnnellow?”
“Yoichi!” Mika practically yelled when the boy finally answered. “I need your
help.”

'Stupid Guren and his stupid rules!' Yuu cursed the man.
All because he was over 30 minutes late for his curfew, Yuu was now grounded
for a week. He had to come home directly after school. 'How am I supposed to
see Mika privately now?!' this sucked. He still wanted more of the alpha. Not
just because of his heat induced state. Which had luckily tapered off, but
because his own brain was now cracked wide open with sexual discovery, and his
mind kept drifting to the endless possibilities. 'Add dirty fucking mind to my
short list of qualities.'
His mother was probably turning over in her grave. Either that or she had come
back to haunt him, because along with the punishment of being grounded, he had
a surprise test in one of his classes. In a subject he should have been
studying for last night instead of being ravaged by a sexy blond alpha.
'Seriously God? Do you really hate me that much? Is this because I lied to
Guren and said I had a test today?!' Maybe it wasn't his mother haunting him.
Maybe it was just karma coming back to bite him in the ass for all his sins.
'As long as they lick my ass afterward...' Inward shake. 'Shut up dirty mind!'
And it didn't help much that his thoughts kept drifting to Mika and their
episode last night throughout to entire day. He kept noticing that his toes
would curl in his shoes every time he recalled something he particularly
enjoyed, and his gaze would slide to Mika sitting next to him in his morning
classes.
But Mika wouldn't really look back at him. He kept that mask of indifference
all throughout class, and without a word to Yuu, he got up before the lunch
bell rang to excuse himself for a meeting with the student council.
'What the hell?!' A spike of alarm shot up Yuu's spine. Was Mika mad at him for
having to leave last night? That would be kind of unfair. Its not like Yuu had
a choice! He didn't think Mika was the type. Maybe it was something else? Maybe
Yuu did something or said something weird and didn't like him anymore? Maybe he
regretted what they did? Maybe all that talk last night was just...all talk?!
'Calm down...' His ego was taking a hit right now. But he shouldn't be
panicking over it! It was fine. He just needed to talk to him. It would sort
itself out.
~
Yuu sat at the table where his friends were waiting for him with an expectant
look on each of their faces. He looked at these people differently now. Kind of
like with a new found respect, and admiration for their trials in life. As soon
as he took his seat, Yoichi blinked at him with a bright close-lipped smile on
his face. Mitsuba twirled one of her pigtails as if waiting for him to answer
something. Kimizuki inclined his head towards him. Shinoa of course had that
evil smirk on her face. 'Ok what the hell you guys?!'
“What...?” He asked the group. “Is there something on my face?”
“Other than self satisfaction? No.” Mitsuba said while glancing at the ceiling.
'Whatever.'
“Sooooo.” Shinoa started, waggling her eyebrows. Mitsuba grabbed her arm to
shush her, but Shinoa batted it away. “You and Mika eh?”
Yuu blushed, keeping his gaze averted and occupied himself with drizzling
frosting on a toaster strudel in a half assed intricate pattern. Outwardly
ignoring her.
She leaned over the table towards him. Half whispering, “Did he cattle prod
your oyster ditch with his lap rocket?”
Yuu sprayed the juice he had been drinking from his nose and mouth, nearly
missing Shinoa's smirking face. “W-what?!” He choked.
“You know...retrofit your pudding hatch with his boink swatter? Foxtrot Uniform
Charlie Kilo?!”
Yuu hid his face in his hands. 'There goes the new found respect.' “I hate you
so much...”
“Don't feel obligated to answer her Yuu.” Kimizuki said. “It's none of our
business.”
“Wasn't planning on it.” He replied without moving his hands.
“Besides, we already know anyway. Shinoa's just being annoying as usual.”
Kimizuki told him matter of factly.
“What?! How?” Yuu looked up at him.
“Oh please, we can smell it rolling off of you in waves. It's kind of
disgusting.”
“Well I think he smells great.” Yuu jumped at the voice behind him.
He whipped around. “H-hey Mika...” He said shyly. Did the alpha just compliment
him? 'I thought he was angry?'
“How's it going?” There was a hint of a smile on the blond's lips, but he
otherwise remained stoic.
“Well these assholes are being assholes but that's nothing new.” He glared,
mostly at Shinoa who was smiling impishly.
Mika jerked his chin towards the exit. “Can I talk to you for a moment? In
private?”
Why did that send a shiver up Yuu's spine? “Uh...sure.”
He stood to follow Mika from the cafeteria, ignoring a snickering Shinoa and
giggling Yoichi behind him.
~
Yuu didn't know where Mika was taking him, but he was happy to see the blond
smiling at him and brushing his pinky against Yuu's as they walked side by
side. Yet when they came upon another group of students in the hallway, Mika
would shove his hands in his pockets and he scowled straight ahead.
They came upon an empty area of the school, and Mika slid open a classroom
door, allowing Yuu to enter first. Then closed the door softly and locket it
behind him. Turning back to Yuu, a wicked grin broke out across his face.
“Finally.” The blond breathed.
“Uh..s-so what did you wanna talk about Mika?” Yuu stammered. Noting the
seductive look in his eyes. Yuu swallowed thickly. Suddenly feeling very warm.
Mika stalked towards him. “It can wait...”
“Miikaaa....” Yuu warned, holding out his palms defensively and backing up.
“What are you doing...?”
Mika stretched his own hands towards the omega and waggled his fingers towards
the boy. “Been aching to touch you all day...”
“Huh?!” Yuu blanched. “But you were ignoring me! I thought you were pissed at
me or something!”
Mika dropped his hands. Cocking his head. “Why would I be pissed at you, Yuu-
chan?”
“I don't know! I was worried you were mad that I had to go home or something,
or I did something wrong. I don't know!”
Mika smiled a warm smile at his paranoid omega. 'He's more sensitive than he
tries to let on...' “We have to put on a front Yuu-chan. To avoid suspicion. I
could never be mad at you, unless you betray me in some way. But you did
nothing wrong.” He started stalking closer to him. “I'm sorry I made you feel
that way. Let me make it up to you.”
Mika pounced, Yuu dodged, running around the teachers desk to put it between
himself and the alpha trying to get him. Yuu's lips quirked at their little
game of cat and mouse. “Mika!” Yuu hissed, “We're at school! What if we get
caught?!”
Mika and Yuu started circling the desk slowly. Mika's pupils were blown and
hard with determination. “We wont, Yuu-chan. This area of the building is
deserted during and after lunch. Nobody will come in.”
“How do you know that?”
“I made sure.” Mika said and he advanced on him again.
“B-but we're gonna be stuck together for a while after! What if somebody
actually does come by? We wont be able to do anything!”
“I'll pull out before I knot you.” Mika explained.
Yuu weighed the pros and cons. 'They were at school , they could get caught.
They could get in trouble! Or worse...'
Although...'They were at school, and Mika had apparently planned this out. But
they could could get caught, and the danger of it made it really hot for some
reason...'
'Damn you dirty mind!'
Mika lunged for him again. Too occupied with his own thoughts, the alpha caught
him around the waist, pulling him in for a searing kiss that made Yuu's knees
go weak. Slick started dampening his underwear in anticipation. Then Mika moved
to his neck, licking and sucking on the area where he had bit him.
“Mmm-Mika! My-my heat, I'm gonna go into heat again if you keep...nng!”
“It will be ok Yuu-chan. Do you trust me?” Mika said as he broke away to look
in his eyes.
Without much hesitation, Yuu silently nodded. Eyes wide as he registered that
they were about to have sex at school. 'This is insane!'
“Good.” Mika turned Yuu around so that he was facing the teachers desk. “Now
bend over Yuu-chan. I'll take good care of you. You've been wanting it haven't
you?” He started unbuckling his belt before starting on his omega's. “I can
smell your desire. You want me, you NEED me. Don't you?”
Yuu lay head sweat glistened forehead against the desk between his clenched
fists as he bent over for the alpha, groaning low in anticipation. Trembling as
his pants and boxers were slid down his thighs and Mika probed his entrance
with a skilled finger.
“Say it Yuu-chan.” The alpha slid his finger in deeper.
“Hah! um...huh?” Words weren't properly forming in Yuu's lust addled brain.
“Say that you have needed me. Or I will stop.” Mika curled his finger against
Yuu's prostate.
“Mika! Hah...hah, oh god yes! Yes I've needed you so badly! So badly it
hurts...”
“Aaah...that's it Yuu-chan. I'm the only one who can touch you like this.
You're all mine...” Mika rasped out. “...tell me whose omega you are.”
“Nnng!” Yuu groaned through his closed lips. This teasing from Mika was driving
him mad. At the moment, he'd say anything just to get his alpha inside of his
aching body. Pressing his ass back to further grind on Mika's finger. Wanting
his touch on that sweet spot inside of him again. “Yours...I'm
yours...Mikaaaa....” Yuu Whined.
Mika removed his finger, making Yuu whimper at the loss. “That's right Yuu-
chan-” He swiftly plunged into the omega's body. Making Yuu cry out. Mika held
his palm against his lovers mouth to muffle his cries of pleasure. At an
agonizingly slow pace, he sank in and out of Yuu's entrance. Relishing the give
and pull of his cock lovingly stroking the omega's insides. “F-fuuuck....” Mika
growled. Quickening his pace, deepening the thrusts until he nudged that sweet
spot with each movement.
Mika's hand was being whetted with drool as Yuu gasped and moaned his sharp
sexy moans against the alpha's palm. Legs shaking from the effort to stand as
Mika assaulted his body with pleasure. White light crackled behind his eyelids
every time Mika hit the spot. Making Yuu grind against the alpha's cock
wantonly, desperate to cum and wanting his knot, despite the dangers.
Regardless of the possible consequence. Knowing that at any moment someone
could knock on that door and catch them. The danger spurred Yuu's desire more.
He pushed his ass against Mika's hips with every plunge, demanding more.
Needing more. Needing it harder! And his amazing alpha read his body language
and rewarded him with short and almost painfully deep snaps of his hips.
Causing Yuu's teeth to clatter with each thrust, but he was loving it. Feeling
his muscles tensing as he readied to orgasm. Yuu gripped his own cock he
grasped the scooting desk, and stroked in tandem with Mika's movements, his
short breathy moans grew louder as the pitch of his voice grew higher. Mika
bent over him to suck on his neck and run his tongue over the column and up to
the shell of his ear. With a muffled scream, Yuu came so hard he would have
collapsed to the ground if it hadn't been for the desk and Mika's grip on his
hips holding him in place. Yuu cupped his palm over the head of his dick to
spill into his hand and not onto the classroom floor. But there was nothing he
could do about the slick pouring from his twitching hole.
Mika followed almost immediately after, plunging his cock into Yuu's slick
soaked sheath and shuddering at the feeling of their mingled wetness as he
gasped and convulsed from the pleasure of it. After two more rapid bucks into
him, Mika pulled out with a high pitched yelp, before he could knot the omega.
He gripped the head of his length painfully as his sank to his knees. Breathing
raggedly at the pain of his knot filling nothing but his own palm. But the pain
was worth it to Mika, because he was able to bring his omega release. That
alone gave him more pleasure than his knotting ever could.
Yuu turned to him, blanching at Mika still crouched on the floor. “Mika! Are
you ok?! What happened?!” Yuu dropped to the floor before him and moved his not
cum filled hand around in the air surrounding Mika. Not sure where, or if, he
should touch him to help him.
Mika smiled. “I'm ok Yuu-chan. Just...need a second.”
“Anything I can do?” Yuu said with a worried look.
Mika grasped his nape and pulled him in for a soft lingering kiss. “That's
better...” Mika said as he broke the kiss. With a hiss, he stuffed his semi-
hard erection back into his pants. Still clearly in pain, but not wanting Yuu
to worry. “Hang on a sec Yuu.” Mika rose to rummage through the desk they had
just fucked on, pulling out a packet of hand wipes.
“Did you put those there?!” Yuu asked insistently.
Mika chuckled. “Maybe?”
“You planned all of this?!”
Mika blinked twice at him “...Maybe?”
But Yuu couldn't be angry about it. They hadn't gotten caught, and fuck that
was hot! 'Score one for the spank bank!' If Yuu ever actually “spanked”.
Mika pushed Yuu to bend over the desk once more. “Oi! We just did it! I need to
go to class!” Yuu fussed.
“I'm just cleaning you off. My cum is dripping out of you.” Mika whispered in
his ear.
Yuu flushed hotly. Immediately embarrassed. Especially when Mika started wiping
the cool cloth up the back of his thighs and between his ass cheeks. “Um...can
I just...do it myself? Like in the bathroom? This is kind of humiliating
Mika...”
Mika's lips quirked. His omega was so prideful and stubborn. Unlike any omega
he's ever been with. Mika was used to bathing his omega's after making a mess
out of them. He actually kind of liked it. Like he was volunteering for
disaster relief, even though he was the cause of the disaster. It made him feel
powerful and in control. But this odd omega wanted control over what happened
between them as well. He wasn't a slave to his genetics. And Mika found it
refreshing, and made his feelings for this beautifully wrought omega all the
more fierce. It made him want to work harder to master him. Mika liked a
challenge. “We still need to talk Yuu-chan. Remember? So hold still. And clean
your hands.”
He handed Yuu a cleansing cloth.
Yuu wiped his own cum from his hands as Mika cleansed his thighs and ass of his
cum and Yuu's slick. Causing Yuu to inwardly cringe in embarrassment the entire
time. Finally done, Yuu pulled his pants up again. Sighing deeply. “Well now
that THAT'S out of the way.” Yuu toed the leg of a chair as he shoved his hands
in his pockets nervously. “You needed to tell me something?”
Mika perched atop the same desk, rifling through his pants pocket to retrieve
four nondescript pink pills. “You need to take one of these. Like, right now.”
“What are they?” Yuu asked.
“Hormone suppressants. It will help quell your heats, and acts as a birth
control. You need to take it once a day until the heat is over. This should be
the proper amount until then.”
Yuu blinked several times at Mika. Not understanding. “Huh?”
Mika ran a free hand through his hair. Nervous about the following
conversation. And praying Yuu wouldn't run to the hills upon given the ultimate
omega information. This would be the toughest thing Mika had ever had to
explain before.
“What we did, yesterday...I...was careless. You should have taken one of these
immediately after the first time I knotted you. I'm hoping that it isn't
already too late. But the thing is...Yuu-chan...as an omega, even though you're
a male...you can get pregnant...”
Yuu stared at him for long moments. Lack of comprehension in his confused
expression. Then his brows together. He glanced from side to side before
narrowing his gaze on Mika once more. “What?”
He gave Yuu an earnest look as he bit his lip. Willing the omega to understand.
“Wait...WHAT!”
“Sshh! Don't be so noisy Yuu-chan!”
“H-how-how...what? HOW?” Yuu was breathing heavily. “How the fuck is that
possible?! I'm a guy!”
“Yuu-chan, I already told you. You're an omega.” Mika explained in a gentle
tone. “You're not just any typical male. In fact, a long time ago before JIDA,
your kind was prized and special. Since you could both breed and be bred.
During heat your womb develops and you can be impregnated.”
“Oh god...” Yuu panted. “Oh my god! Are you telling me I-I'm...I'm p-
pregnant?!”
He could see the panic in Yuu's eyes. His cagey look whenever he met Mika's
eyes. 'This isn't good...'
Mika hopped off the desk to gather Yuu in his arms. Rubbing his omega's back to
help him stop hyperventilating. “Sshh...Yuu, it's ok. The chances of getting
pregnant during a first heat are slim to none. And we have suppressants for you
to take. I wont let your life be ruined by having my children, ok? If it
happens I'll...take care of it...”
Yuu pushed away fro him. “What the hell does that mean?!”
“Which part?”
“You'll take care of it, if you got me pregnant? And you wont ruin my life with
your children? What the fuck Mika?!” Yuu looked at Mika with insolence. Clearly
perturbed.
“I...I was just saying, that-”
“You would kill our baby?!” Yuu hissed, backing away from him.
'Our baby...' Why did those words make warmth spread throughout Mika's chest?
“If it happened, you...you would want to keep it?”
Yuu nearly growled at him. “Don't be stupid Mika! It's a baby! And its pieces
of you and me! You know what it's like to be thrown away, how could you say
such a thing?!”
Tears welled in Mika's eyes. He didn't expect this, and from an innocent,
clueless, new omega of all things! He reached out to hug Yuu, but he shrank
from his touch. Mika's eyes widened at him, displaying the hurt he felt. “Yuu-
chan...please...”
“NO! That's an awful thing to think Mika! How could you even-”
Mika nearly tackled the boy, grasping him in a tight embrace. Wanting to
squeeze all the love he felt at the moment into his omega's body. “Yuu-chan!
I'm sorry!” Mika nearly sobbed. “I had no idea you would react this way.
Considering how everything about this in your life has happened so fast, I just
wanted you to know you had another option! I would never take something away
from you if you wanted it.” Mika held Yuu at arms length. “It will be dangerous
and we will have to run away together and hide, but if you want a baby, I'll
give you a baby! Fuck the suppressants!”
He was about to throw them in the trash when Yuu stayed his hand. “Mika...” He
took the pills from the alpha. “I get it ok?” Yuu said in a soft tone. “You're
trying to protect me. I'm sorry I freaked out.” He popped one of the pills into
his mouth, swallowing it. “You're right, it's dangerous and it would change our
lives. In the meantime, I'll take the suppressants. They should work right?
We're pretty young to be starting a family anyway.” Yuu said with a bright
smile. “And if it happens it happens. And we will handle it then. Ya?”
Mika chuffed, but smiled in return. “Alright.” He thumbed his bottom lip and
stroked his hair with his other hand. “I've never met anyone like you, Yuu-
chan.” Mika said in all honesty. “You aren't freaked out by the male pregnancy
thing?”
Yuu cupped Mika's face in return. Resting his forehead against the blond's,
closing his eyes. “Of course I am. But that's just who I am now isn't it? I
just have to accept it, along with everything else.”
Mika let out a shaky breath. “You're awfully adaptable aren't you?”
Yuu shrugged, opening his eyes to lock gazes with Mika. “I guess I've always
had to be. Its the only way I could have any happiness.”
“Are you happy with me, Yuu?”
He gave Mika that secretive smile that made the alpha's stomach do back flips.
“Very happy.” They took each others mouth again. Ravaging and probing and wet
and they were both left breathless as the bell rang, indicating lunch was over.
“By the way Mika, Guren grounded me for staying out past curfew.” Yuu pouted.
“So I wont be able to see you after school.”
“Hmm...” Mika tapped his chin. “I'm sure we will figure something out.”

***** Tribulations *****
Chapter Summary
     Mika's past comes back to Haunt Yuu
Chapter Notes
     Oi! This chapter was so difficult! No idea why.
     I think because there's angst and writing angst makes me feel the
     angst. :/
     But yay! Its out of the way!
     Yuu is a crazy jealous Yandere lol. At least in this chapter he is! I
     just had to do it. I HAD to.
     Being overly possessive is an omega trait anyway, so i think it kind
     of goes hand in hand with yandere.
     Also a shout out to IAmNotCapableOfInventingACleverUsername For
     suggesting these two songs I think fit awesome with the characters!
     Yuu's POV : you're mine by disturbed
     Mika'a POV : for your entertainment by Adam lambert.
     Go give it a listen. You'll see what I mean ;)
     Sorry for any errors! I will fix it later.
     (Now lets all go murder people and sacrifice them to senpai)
     Enjoy <3
See the end of the chapter for more notes
It had been four days since Yuu had had sex with Mika in the classroom. Even
though he had taken the suppressants every day like he was supposed to, and his
heat was now over, tonight he was particularly antsy.
He had gotten rid of all the extra blankets and pillows from his bed, feeling
crowded and smothered by all of them, but at the same time he felt lonely in
his empty bed. Frustrated. Mika had given Yuu a taste of heaven, and now, all
Yuu could do was stand outside of the Pearly Gates and pine for the blond angel
beyond them.
This was all Guren's, fault Yuu decided. Since he wasn't going to blame himself
or Mika. And it was Guren who decided to harshly ground him for a week just for
being thirty minutes late for curfew.
'This is pathetic.' Yuu rolled to his side. Trying to ignore his aching hard on
and increasing wetness. Contemplating doing a workout to get rid of it. He'd
never masturbated before, and he didnt have the desire to start now. He rather
Mika relieve him. But now he was so hard it pained him and his underwear was
becoming damp from the slick. He wasn't soaked like he had been when he was in
heat, but it was uncomfortable. And his body knew what Yuu was craving, and
readied for it as if Mika were there with him.
He huffed. Yuu had it bad for the blond. So bad that he had to give himself
mental kicks to the head and think of dead puppies to stop himself from getting
hard during class. Mika would glance at him occasionally, still keeping up
appearances with his air of indifference, though now that Yuu knew it was just
a mask, he was able to see the gleam of interest in those blue eyes of his.
Making Yuu stifle a grin every time they made eye contact. Knowing that
everyone had no clue about their dirty little secret, and it was a major turn
on for him. Well, except for Yoichi. Who would occasionally snort at their
exchange of looks with laughter. Then blush and blink off to the side owlishly
when Yuu shot him a killing look. He noticed that Yoichi always blushed when
Yuu and Mika were having a moment. It was really weird...But he didnt dwell on
it long. Deciding that Yoichi was just shy or something.
And to Yuu delight, Mika had came and got him twice during lunch that week when
he was able to get out of student council duties, to sneak off to an empty
classroom or to Mika's car to fool around and make out. They didnt have sex at
the school again because of it being so risky, which was ok with Yuu, if only
he could be completely sated by their foreplay.
Now it was all pent up and he needed it again, needed Mika to make him feel
good again. 'Fuck it!' It was after 11pm but he didnt care at this point. He
dialed Mika's cellphone. He needed anything to get rid of this hard on!
The blond answered on the first ring. "Hello Yuu-chan? Is everything alright?"
Yuu bit his lip at the sound of his boyfriends soft, husky voice. His hand
automatically finding it's way to his aching erection. The pressure felt good
as he grasped it, making his voice gravely as he spoke. "No, Mika...I-it hurts.
I'm in pain..."
"Are you injured? Did somebody hurt you?!"
Yuu smiled against the phone wickedly. "Yes..." He breathed through his lie. "I
need your help."
He heard rustling noises on the other line. Likely Mika jumping out of bed and
dressing. Yuu squeezed his pillow to his chest. His lover was so loyal and
attentive to him that it made his head swim.
Mika cleared his throat. "Where are you Yuu-chan? I'm coming to get you!"
"I'm at home."
There was a long pause before the blond spoke again. "You're home...? Did
something happen with you dad?!"
"I'll explain when you get here. Just hurry!" Yuu couldn't stop grinning. "But
dont hurry too hard. I know how you drive!"
Mika clicked his tongue. "Can you sneak out?"
"Got it covered!" Yuu didn't really know how to sneak out. He never had
before.But he'd damn sure try!
"I'll see you soon, Yuu-chan." Mika said in a low tone before he hung up.
Causing a thrill to shoot throughout Yuu's body.
~
About 13 minutes later, Yuu heard a car driving down the street before stopping
and shutting it's engine off. 'That must be him.' Already dressed in a black
hood and black jeans (Because, Ninja?), he nearly leapt from the bed to throw
on his tennis shoes. Thrumming with excitement but nervous as hell. 'What am I
doing? This is crazy!' But this WAS his idea. WHile dressing and waiting for
Mika, he started second guessing himself. But he forcefully shook away those
thoughts. He had made his choice. He was resolved. 'Don't pussy out now!' He
opened his window, silently thanking Guren for owning a one story home to make
sneaking out a hundred times easier.
 
Mika shut off his headlights as he approached Yuu's house and coasted to a stop
before shutting off the engine. He inspected the house as his heart pounded in
his ears. The house was dark except for a single light in a room along the
side. Suddenly, the window to that room opened, and a figure started emerging
out of it, making it's way over the window sill with all the grace of a newborn
deer. 'Yuu-chan...' The culmsy figure had to be him. As he leapt from the
window, Yuu tumbled into the bushes beneath it. Mika jolted, about to bolt from
the car to go and help him. But Yuu popped back up. Sputtering leaves from his
mouth and brushing them off of his clothes before sprinting towards the car.
Yuu hopped into the passenger seat, breathing heavily. "Hey!" He gasped out.
"Hey..." Mika said back.
Yuu took in Mika's appearance. His blond waves were messy from sleeping. And he
had clearly chosen the same incognito ninja look in his own black zip up hoodie
and low slung sweat pants. 'Does Mika look good in fucking everything?!' His
mouth watered at the sight of his exposed collarbone and smooth pale skin of
his neck. He wanted to suck on that skin, taste it...
Yuu practically attacked the alpha, crushing their lips together and gripping
handfulls of hair to pull him closer and deepen the kiss. Mika made a startled
sound of surprise before he splayed his fingers over Yuu's ass, squeezing the
firm mounds. Yuu groaned and ground his hardness against Mika's as he straddled
the blond's narrow hips. God how he ached for this. And the stupid restrictions
of their stupid clothes were getting in his way! Yuu hastily unzipped Mika's
hoodie, revealing the Mika didnt have on a shirt underneath. Yuu licked his
lips before he began nipping and licking at the alpha's bared flesh, savoring
his taste and causing the blond to pant heavily and grind harder against his
omega's hard on.
"Y-Yuu-chan..." Mika whispered against Yuu's ear. He cupped his lovers face to
stop his desperate assault on his sensitive neck. "Hold on a second." He looked
into Yuu's beautiful emerald orbs. Knowing he wasn't really in any danger.
"You're not really in any kind of trouble, are you?" The blond's mouth quirked
in the corners as he struggled to keep a serious expression.
Yuu bit his lip, looking back at Mika sheepishly. "Well...not exactly. I
just...kinda, needed you."
Mika snorted, rolling his eyes. "Oh Yuu-chan, honestly." He pressed his
forehead to Yuu's. "You had me worried sick!"
"Sorry Mika...I just wanted to be alone with you..." Yuu felt guilty now for
making his alpha worry so much. And for his complete selfishness.
Mika smirked. "That was a dirty trick." He whispered.
"I know..."
"I think you need to be punished for this. Let's get somewhere more private."
Yuu swallowed thickly. 'Punished?' He slid back into the passenger seat as Mika
started the car again, driving them out of the neighborhood and to an empty
grocery store parking lot.
Once they parked, Mika unbuckled his seat belt and pulled the lever to push his
seat-back down it was laying almost flat. "Now..." He reached over to swiftly
unbutton Yuu's pants and shove them down to his ankles for Yuu to remove along
with his shoes. Then he pulled the omega on top of him and made Yuu straddle
his hips once again. "Where were we?" Mika breathed.
Without preamble, Mika freed his stiff cock and aligned it against Yuu's wet
hole, shoving into him almost brutally and wrenching his omega down his length
to the hilt until they both cried out from the mingled pain and pleasure. Yuu
grasped Mika's face again to pull him in for a rough kiss. Their tongues
entangled, desperately seeking every part of each others mouth as Mika pistoned
his cock into Yuu with all of his strength.
He had angered his alpha. But if this was his punishment? He'd contemplate
angering him more often.
 
~
 
Yuu plopped into the chair of his usual spot at the lunch table. His face
formed into an easy relaxed smile and feeling so satisfied he could whistle. It
was amazing what sex could do to lift the spirits. And he didnt get caught
sneaking out! It was exhilarating. Freeing. Being with Mika was the best times
he's ever had.
"Well well. Look who up on the right side of Mika's bed!" Mistuba snarked.
"Shut up..." He half expected a remark like that from Shinoa, but it seemed she
was absent today.
"Seriously Yuu, try to contain that!" Kimizuki said, covering his nose. "Your
mingled scents are nauseating!"
"Common Shiho, it's not that bad." Yoichi told him.
Kimizuki shot him a look. "Of course YOU would think that Yoichi..." He trailed
off, realizing what he'd just said. Looking apologetically at his flushing
boyfriend.
Yuu studied their exchange. It almost seemed like KImizuki had revealed
something he wasn't supposed to. And he was bothered by what Yoichi had said.
Come to think of it, Kimizuki was always put off by Mika's presence or any
mention of him. Even his scent bothered him. And Yoichi always blushed whenever
anything sexual about Mika was brought up. Which was strange, because by Yoichi
and Kimizuki's mingled scents, they were a bonded pair. Why would Mika get
Yoichi flustered? Unless...Wait...
Yuu recalled a couple of weeks ago when Yoichi had collapsed. Which, from the
knowledge Yuu had gained, was because Yoichi had gone into heat. Kimizuki had
been there with Yuu, but it wasnt that alpha who had who Yoichi had thrown
himself on at the time. It wasn't Kimizuki who had taken him home from
school...it had been Mika...
Yuu narrowed his eyes on the other omega. Yuu never gave it much thought before
because he was too wrapped up in what was happening in his own life. But what
had happened that day? Yuu hadn't presented until a few days after that, so Yuu
didnt have the ability to identify their scents at the time. After he
presented, the couples mingled scent was all he knew. But what had Yoichi
smelled like before Kimizuki had bonded with him? Did he smell like Mika? Had
Mika bonded with this omega before him?!
A jolt of seething jealousy shot through him, so strong it made his hair stand
on end. "Tell me something, Yoichi..." Yuu fought the urge to bare his teeth at
the boy.
"Huh?" Yoichi gaped at the crazed expression on Yuu's face.
"What exactly WHERE you to Mika before I came along?"
"Yoichi flushed more. Swallowing thickly. "It doesn't matter anymore, Yuu."
Yuu's eyes widened further, causing his pupils to shrink. "Tell me! Did-did
you...that day you collapsed. Mika took you home..."
Youchi looked at him earnestly. Waving his hands in front of him. "No! It's not
like that Yuu! We arent together anymore! I'm with Shiho now!"
"But you WERE together?! For how long?!" Yuu hoped it wasnt for long.
"T-two years...when i first presented! B-but..."
"TWO FUCKING YEARS?" Yuu gaped. "Did he...you know...when you went into heat?!"
He started leaning closer to the other omega threateningly. Causing Kimizuki to
growl at him, but Yuu ignored him. "TELL ME!" Yuu bit out, making Yoichi
flinch.
"No! We didnt have sex that time! And I swear that was the last time he ever
touched me!" Yoichi looked afraid.
'Good!' Yuu thought. He's had sex with his alpha before? Mika touched this boy?
And recently?! Yuu's fists clenched so hard they shook. The muscle in his jaw
constantly ticking. Now that he knew this, he mind kept flashing to images of
them together! Did he touch this boy gently or demandingly? Did he urge him and
work him over until he came hard, like he did with Yuu? Did he give him those
desperate rough kisses that can make your toes curl? Did he fuck him sensually
and did Yoichi like it rough? Did they speak soft words to eachother afterward
as they lay entangled in one another?
Yuu felt sick. And his head pounded from the terrible images flashing through
his mind. The thought of Mika touching another made Yuu seeth with irrational
and overwhelming jealousy and possessiveness. Mika was no virgin, that much was
obvious. But Yuu had hoped to never encounter somebody he'd actually been with.
And now one of his past conquests was Yuu's friend! He was so infuriated he
could choke on it.
 
Yuu shot to his feet. "Fight me!" He snapped.
"W-what?!" Yoichi shrank from him.
"I said, fight me!"
Kimizuki shot up of of his seat, putting himself between Yuu and his omega
protectively.
"Oh shit..." Mitsuba stood as well. Noting that nearly half the students in the
cafeteria had stopped to watch what was happening.
"I wont let you touch a single hair on his head!" Kimizuki said threateningly.
Attempting to force Yuu into submission. "You're gonna have to go through me
first!"
"Alright then." Yuu swung a fist, connecting with the side of the alpha's face
so hard that his glasses went flying. He gaped for a second at the surprising
strength of the omega.
Omega's simply didnt fight! They were supposed to be much smaller and weaker
than their alpha counterparts. And way too kindhearted to pick fights! Almost
to a fault. They were born to be child bearers and home makers, not warriors.
Yet Yuu's punch had made Kimizuki feel like he had been hit with a
sledgehammer. He would usually never consider hitting an omega, but after that
punch? There was no going easy on him. And there was no way in hell he'd let
him hit Yoichi with that strength!
Kimizuki swung back, connecting with Yuu's cheek, but he shook it off quickly
and threw another punch.
"Yuu! Why cant you see past things that happened before?!" Mitsuba shrieked.
"You're being insane! That was all in the past!" Yoichi was hiding behind her
now.
"Shut up Mitsuba! I'm in the middle of kicking this guys ass!" Another right
hook went flying.
'God dammit!' Where was Mika when they needed him? He'd have a better chance of
defusing the situation! "Go find Mika!" She told Yoichi.
"Right." He started scurrying off.
"No! Dont you go near him!" Yuu growled. Causing Yoichi to halt his steps.
"He's mine!"
Mitsuba's eyebrow twitched. "Enough of this!" She spun on one foot, kicking a
leg out and swung it towards Yuu, connecting with his rib cage with such force
that he went sprawling to his back. Gasping and wheezing from having the air
knocked out of him. SHe then strode over, grasping Yuu by the scruff of his
neck and his bicep, yanking him to his feet to wrangle him outside. She tossed
him on his ass in the grass. Out of earshot from everyone else.
"What the hell do you think you're doing?!" Mistuba scolded with her hands on
her hips. "You're risking all of us with your stupidity! You have nothing to be
this crazy and jealous over!"
Yuu wiped the blood from his split lip with the back of a hand. "Yes I do!
Yoichi was-"
"WAS, Yuu! Mika's with you now! If you have issues with with Mika's past, then
you need to sort that out with him! Dont take your possessiveness out on
another happily bonded pair! If Shiho can see past it with him being a
hotheaded alpha, then you sure as hell should be able to!" She crossed her arms
over her chest. "Besides, Mika's a top alpha. He has the right to be with
whoever he wants! You need to understand that."
She turned to go back inside, looking over her shoulder at Yuu, still sulking
in the grass. "Go cool off Yuuichiro. We dont need your drama. We have enough
on our plates with Shinoa missing..."

     <3
See the end of the chapter for more notes
Did Yuu feel terrible for yelling at Yoichi? Definitely. Should he have maybe
not caused a scene and threw punches at Kimizuki? Probably. But that didnt
change the fact that the jealousy had cut like a knife.
Mika had texted him during his afternoon classes, since they didnt have class
together after lunch. But Yuu ignored it. He didnt even bother reading it. He
could already predict what it most likely said.
Undoubtedly Mitsuba had went and told him what had happened. What Yuu had done.
Yuu knew he fucked up. And if the alpha was angry, Yuu didnt care. He was
pissed at Mika. Not only for fucking his friend, but for keeping something like
that a secret. Yuu might not have been so angry if they didnt try to hide it.
Maybe?
Ya, it was in the past, but it wasn't in the distant past! Their relationship
had ended fairly recently. And now Yuu was left paranoid about whether or not
Mika had other current relationship with different omega's that was being kept
secret from him as well.
Like Mitsuba had said, Mika was an alpha. A beautiful alpha. Other omega's
probably threw themselves at him to be used at his disposal. Why WOULDN'T he
have others? This realm was so much different than the beta dynamic. Were
alpha's and omega's even supposed to be monogamous? Yuu's pencil almost snapped
in his grip at the thought.
And to further his already sour mood, Shinoa was missing? She was just here
yesterday! As much as he loathed her commentary about him and Mika and her
relentless teasing, Yuu actually really liked Shinoa as a person. She was loyal
and helpful to her non-beta friends. And she never expected anything in return.
She was selfless with her actions, which was a rare thing in this world. But
why would she, a beta, go missing? They group clearly knew something that Yuu
didnt about all of this. And he pondered it for the rest of the day. As much as
he wanted to ask his friends about the niggling questions he had about the
whole situation, his pride wouldnt allow him to face them yet. He was still
slightly ashamed of himself.
To add insult to injury (literally), Guren was freaking pissed when Yuu got
home from school upon seeing his son's marred and beaten face. His lip was
split and his cheek was bruised, Yuu didnt think it was all that bad. He healed
pretty fast, but he almost earned another smack from Guren when he blurted out,
"You should have seen the other guy."
He withstood Guren's scolding and grilling him on what the fuck happened and
why he was fighting again, in which Yuu just shrugged and said "assholes being
assholes."
Luckily the scolding didnt last for long, and he allowed Yuu to lock himself in
his room and sulk for the rest of the night. He felt raw inside. After his
emotions had been amped up so high, he now felt drained, weary...
His phone buzzed again while he was studying later that night. He looked at it.
Mika was calling again. He set the phone back down, not having the courage nor
the inclination to talk to him yet.
~
Twenty seven times, Mika had called his omega. Ten of those he left messages
berating him for his actions, then apologizing in another voicemail, then
begging him to pick up or call him back. He texted him as well just as many
times, but the screen was showing that his outgoing messages weren't even being
read! It made Mika want to pull his hair out. He had decided to forgive his
omega upon learning why he had gotten into a fight with Shiho. Was he being
stupid? Of course! Did he understand the jealousy? Absolutely. Mika had gotten
lucky to have been his omega's first. He'd probably lose his mind too if he had
met one of Yuu's past lovers. Kimizuki didnt really understand the jealousy
because he had known about Mika and Yoichi, and loved his omega anyway. But
Yoichi understood Yuu's behavior because he was an omega as well, and very
possessive of Shiho. It was just their nature. Although Yuu's possessiveness
was a little much, even to Yoichi.
Mistuba on the other hand, thought Yuu was a danger to the group. That
something needed to be done to remedy his lackluster attitude and be less
conspicuous before he brought JIDA down on all of them. She was worried. They
all were. Shinoa had been missing almost a full 24 hours now. The group had
tried tracking her phone? Nothing. As if it was destroyed. Her car's GPS? same
result.
Mika had snuck into the faculty office to pull her files. They'd been removed.
He'd gone through the surveillance footage to search for anything out of the
ordinary during the day before she had disappeared. But there was nothing. She
hadn't even told him that she suspected JIDA of closing in on her. Or any of
them for that matter. Yet now, it was as if she had vanished into thin air!
He knew the rule, to not go looking if one of them disappeared. But Shinoa
was...She was his best friend. Besides Yuu-chan, she was closest person he had
in his life. She'd been protecting them, protecting ALL of them for years! Had
even protected Yuu, even though she hardly knew him in the beginning. She was
like a sister to Mika. Shinoa was family, whether she was a beta or not. And
his alpha instincts screamed at him to protect his family. She'd do the same
for him, he knew her well enough to know that was certain. She'd break her own
promises and try to find him if he went missing. Mika had one last ditch effort
of finding her. A place he could look that if they hadn't taken her yet, he
knew she might be.
But first? He had to clear the air with his trouble maker of an omega, before
the situation escalated further. 'Now's not a good time to be ignoring me Yuu-
chan!' They were all on high alert. This had happened before and they had all
successfully evaded JIDA by sticking to their plan and maintaining contact with
each other about JIDA's movements and whereabouts. And they all spoke in code
in case any of the were bugged or their phones were being tapped. But Yuu-chan
wasn't aware of the dangers at the moment. He was still new to this way of life
and they hadn't gotten a chance to go over their plans with him in case this
situation arose. His was oblivious to it all, and they could catch him
unawares.
Though he knew they wouldnt go after him at his own home, with his father being
some wealthy beta, but contacting him about the plan was crucial! If anything
ever were to happen to his mate, Mika didnt think he would be able to go
on...He had to get Yuu to listen. He had to make the omega forgive him so that
he will let Mika protect him.
When his call went unanswered for the 28th time, Mika nearly crushed the phone
in his fist. 'I have no choice.' He'd have to confront him in person. That
meant going to his house. It would probably be safer at Yuu's house than his
own right now anyway. That is, if Yuu actually ended up letting him in. He'd
likely had to force himself inside. That wouldn't be easy. But if they were
onto Mika, he needed the protection of his mate's beta guarded home.
As planned, Kimizuki was staying with Yoichi at one of Yoichi's beta friends
homes that had taken care of him when he was a child. They had a deal that they
would allow two nights of sancuary to get JIDA off their tails. Mistuba had the
same deal with one of the betas who had helped hide her when she was a child.
Mika and Shinoa had always made sure they were paid well for their trouble, and
Mika used to always stay with Yoichi or Mistuba during this. But it was too
late now. They were already in hiding and wouldn't let him near their safe zone
after the cut off time. Which was 9pm. And now it was almost midnight...He
needed Yuu now more than ever.
~
He pulled up to Yuu's house at around 12:15. He expected the entire house to be
dark and everyone to be asleep, but a single light was on in the same window
that Yuu had crawled out of to meet him the other night. 'That has to be his
room.' Mika hoped.
He parked the car alongside the hedges dividing Yuu's house from their neighbor
to better hide his car and hopped out. Silently shutting the door and pulling
the hood over his head as he crouched low to hurry towards the source of the
light. Manuevering through the bushes, he peeked over the edge of the window
sill with only the top on his head and eyes visible. There he was, slumped over
his desk. Appearing to be studying, but he knew the omega was actually sitting
there brooding. He didnt look too injured from Kimizuki's hits. 'Good. Kimizuki
gets to live then.' He'd wanted to kick Shiho's ass so badly for touching his
omega. But it seemed Yuu had done a thorough job of that already. He smiled,
'Yuu-chan is so wily.' It was as endearing as it was dangerous.
~
Yuu was staring at his textbook, unseeing. Unable to focus on the lessons
written before him. It was already after midnight, and he had barely gotten any
homework done. And he kept staring at his phone for long moments after the
calls from Mika had stopped. He almost gave in and answered a few times. He
almost read the texts from him. But he was afraid of what he would find. Did
his alpha think of him as a liability now? Did he want to break up with him? He
felt so hallow in his chest. He felt betrayed by his friends and by his
boyfriend. But no matter how mad he was with the alpha, he still wanted him.
Still wanted to talk to him, even if it was just to yell at him and take his
pain out on him. No matter how unfair it was to Mika.
He put his head in his hands, about to let himself give in the the hurt, about
to just break down and let the tears he'd been holding in spill over from his
tired eyes. But then he heard a faint tapping sound coming from his window. Her
jerked his head towards it, but saw nothing. He sighed, his moment of weekness
gone as he turned his attention back to the textbook. Until he heard it again.
'What the hell?' He stood to make his way over to the window, cautiously
sliding it open.
Mika popped up from the bushes comically. Peeking only his eyes over the window
sill and blinked twice. "Hey Yuu-chan.
Yuu startled. "M-Mika!"
"You know, you should really be more careful about opening your window to
strange noises. I could have been a burglar. Or worse."
"What the fuck are you doing here?!" Yuu whisper shouted.
"Hiding in your bushes outside of your window." Mika curled his fingers over
the sill in front of his face, leaning his nose against them. "Can i come in?"
Yuu almost gave in at the adorable lost puppy look Mika was giving him with
those big blue eyes, but he stood his ground. "No."
The blonds brows drew together in a wounded expression. "Why not?"
"Because I dont want to see you right now!" Yuu folded his arms over his chest.
"But i'm cold..." Mika muffled against the backs of his hands.
"Then you better go and find an omega to warm you up." Yuu shot back at him.
Immediately regretting his words, but made no indication of it.
Those puppy dog eyes immediately narrowed on him in a harsh glower. "I'm
looking at one. Let me in Yuu. We need to talk." His voice became low and
serious.
Yuu knew he had pissed him off, but he stubbornly started shutting the window
on the blond. "I said no. I dont want to talk to you-"
The abrupt sound of Mika's hand staying the window from shutting made Yuu jump.
The alpha stood to his full height, his lips set in a hard line and glower
still in place as he forced the window back open. "And I said...LET. ME. IN."
Mika's tone was commanding, and his eyes were so fierce that it compelled Yuu
to stop his attempt at closing the window and take a couple of halting steps
back. Eyes wide. 'What the hell just happened...?'
Mika swept his legs over the threshold into the omega's bedroom with a catlike
agility, before standing the brush the dirt off of his jeans and pulled his
hood off.
"Sorry to have to do that Yuu-chan. But you didnt give me much of a choice." He
placed his hands in the pocket of his hoodie as he wandered around Yuu's
bedroom, inspecting it's contents with interest. Toeing a medicine-ball and
taking in the light grey and blue color scheme.
Yuu shuffled uncomfortably at Mika's scrutinizing inspection of his bedroom.
"What the hell did you just do to me?!"
Mika gave me a sideways glance before looking back over to Yuu's expansive
movie collection. "I make it a point to not use my alpha compulsion on omega's.
But you're just too damned stubborn for your own good."
Yuu blanched. "Y-you controlled me?! What the fuck?!" He scowled at the blond
with renewed anger. "How often have you done that to me? Did you use it to get
in my pants too?!"
"I've never used it on you until now. And i've never used it to get in anyone's
pants Yuu-chan. Fortunately for me, that was all you."
"T-thats not fucking fair! I wanted to be left alone!"
Mika shot him a killing look. "You wanna talk about fair? You're angry at me
and you wont even tell me why. And you wont even give me a chance to explain
myself!" The blond studied the ground. His voice becoming solemn. "You wont
even give me the benefit of the doubt Yuu-chan...do I mean so little to you?"
Yuu grit his teeth. "Tsk, I should be asking you that! How could you just go
bed hopping from one omega to another so easily? Did you have to let Yoichi
down easily, or did you lay it down harsh? And am I just another notch on your
belt? Should I expect you to get sick of me and find another omega eventually
too?!" His eyes had started watering again. "Mitsuba said you're a top alpha
who has claim to any omega you want. So tell me Mika, how many other's are
there?!"
Mika gaped at him in shock. Mika was with Yuu every day. When would he find the
time for another omega even if he wanted one? The idea was ridiculous to him.
"Yuu-chan...do you really think of me in that way?"
At the way the blond's voice broke in the end, Yuu was starting to second guess
that whole notion.
"I...I dont know Mika! I dont know what to think...You and Yoichi-"
"Yuu-chan!" Mika lay his hands over his boyfriends trembling shoulders. He
expected Yuu to pull away, but the omega allowed the contact. "Listen to me.
Yoichi and I...yes, we were together. But we were, and are, nothing more than
friends."
"Die lie Mika..." Yuu wrapped his arms around his midsection defensively. "I
know you and him used to...do things..."
Mika sighed. "If only you could understand, Yuu. The things we did, it didnt
mean anything. It was nothing but instinct compelling us to do what nature
intended, and to be there in his time of need."
Yuu squeezed his eyes shut, not wanting to hear it admitted out loud that
they'd been together in that way. It made the emptiness inside of him grow.
"Look," The blond continued. "I care about Yoichi like I care about all of our
friends. But I've never fealt a romantic connection with him. Shiho was the one
who had been in love with him for years, but they couldn't be together until
Shiho had presented. That's why it ended. Our feelings for each other never
went beyond friendship. And I don't even miss it, because they're happy
together and now I'm with you." Mika curled a finger under his omega's chin,
urging the boy to meet his gaze. Wanting to get lost in his lover's teary
emerald eyes. "I've never felt such strong feelings for anybody before. At
least, until I met you."
Yuu blinked at him. "What...?"
Mika knew that the omega was confused by all of this, having never been in a
similar situation before, so he continued. "When I first met you, I was drawn
to you. Even though you showed every sign of being a beta, and knowing that I
could never be with you, I still wanted you. I thought about you constantly, I
was obsessed. It drove me crazy..."
Tears began to slide down Yuu's cheeks as he gawked from Mika's declarations.
'Was this really happening? Was he really saying such things to me?' His heart
hammered in his chest as the blond wiped the tears from his cheeks with the pad
of his thumb, before smoothing it over Yuu's soft bottom lip. His brows
furrowed at the cut still visible there.
"But then," Mika went on to say. "You turned out to be an omega. I cant explain
the happiness i felt that day, because it meant that I may actually have a
chance with you, if you accepted me. And when you did, you made me feel so
nervous and excited, and I still just cant get enough of you. You turned out to
be so unexpected and passionate despite your past. It's everything I need.
YOU'RE everything I need. And I want to give you everything you need in return
Yuu-chan..."
Yuu was visibly shaking with the effort to hold in his floodgate of tears.
'Dammit Mika...' Why did he have to be like this? Why did his words so easily
mend his broken soul? 'You make it so hard to resist...'
He was still meeting his intense gaze. Afraid to look away. Afraid the spell
would be broken if he did, as the blond caressed his face with his hands and
his heart with his words. He wasn't sure of what to say back. He was literally
rendered speechless.
Mika brought his face closer until he could feel his warm breaths ghosting over
his face. His voice a hoarse whisper. "Can't you see that you're the only one
for me, Yuu-chan? I want a family with you, and children if that's what you
wanted. I'd do anything for you! I-" Mika suddenly squeezed him to his chest,
nuzzling his face against his mate's neck. "Yuu-chan I'm in love with you."
At those words, Yuu lost the ability to hold his tears back. He choked out a
sob as he wrapped his arms around Mika. Then choked out another sob when he
attempted to speak. Mika...Mika was in love with him?! He could hardly believe
it. Yuu didnt see himself as the kind of person worthy of such a thing. The
kind of person to have somebody as wonderful as this alpha fall for. But he had
said it...This kind, loving, beautiful alpha had chosen him, wanted a future
with him, and loved him. He felt as if his feet werent quite touching the
ground. His mind in a state of euphoria as he processed Mika's words, and
comprehended his own tangled emotions.
All the lingering glances when Yuu had first met him. The way Mika had made him
feel so free and alive when they would make love to each other. The constant
awareness and pull towards the blond whenever he was in the room. The fear of
being able to get pregnant by this alpha, followed by the warmth that notion
gave him. The late night pining over him and missing the mere sound of his
voice. The irrational jealousy and fierce possessiveness of wanting Mika all to
himself. What all of that love? Is this what it felt like to love somebody? It
had to be. Nothing else Yuu could think of seemed to fit.
The emptiness Yuu had been feeling was seeming to disappear, only to be
replaced with such a sense of fullness, that his chest could hardly contain it.
He was brimming with so much of the foreign emotion, he thought he could burst.
"Ah god Mika..." Yuu sobbed against his shoulder.
Mika pulled back to look at him, concern in his eyes.
"I...I love you too!" Yuu gasped out, as if he had been holding him breath. "I
never realized what this was i felt. I couldn't find the words. B-but I fucking
love you!"
Mika rested his forehead against his omega's. Breathing what sounded to Yuu
like a sigh of relief. "Yuu-chan..."
Sifting his fingers through's Mika's hair, Yuu breathed against his mouth, "I'm
sorry for being an asshole Mika...."
"Sshh...Yuu-chan, it doesn't matter anymore. All that matters is us right now."
They pressed their lips together. Soft. Seeking. It was as electrifying as
their first kiss. But this time it was also different. Because both of their
lips had said what was in their hearts for each other, and the kiss had seemed
to seal an unspoken promise between them, one they both already were aware of
without even having to say it.
They were both on the bed before realizing that were leading each other there,
though Yuu broke the spell for only a minute to lock his bedroom door and turn
off his lights. Leaving only the small glow of his desk lamp to allow them to
see one another. No more words were spoken. None were needed. Yuu crawled back
next to Mika. Pressing their bodies together to feel each others heartbeats in
their chest as their fingers entwined and Mika pressed Yuu's palm over his
heart as he deepened their kiss and moved to stretch his body over his omegas.
It didn't matter to Yuu anymore, which side of Mika other omega's of his past
had experienced of him in bed. Mika was his now. And Yuu knew, that this
particular side of Mika in this moment in time, was meant for him and him
alone.
It was so different making love this time than it had ever been before for
them. It was slow, yet paced. Their body's writhing in synchronization as they
explored every part of each other with seeking touches and caresses that made
them shudder and gasp in unison from the intimacy of their contact. From the
passion they felt sparking off of one another with every movement and stroke as
they rocked together in such a tight embrace, that they no longer felt like two
separate people, but instead an entity that shared a single soul. Never wanting
to separate, never wanting the moment to end as they breathed for each other
through their desperate kisses. Nothing else existed in this point in time.
Their sensual pursuit of fulfillment only being aloud to reach it's crest when
dawn broke over the horizon. The morning sun pale in comparison to their
afterglow, as they fell asleep in each others arms.

The way Yuu's black strands of hair shined in the sunlight, Mika could make out
the faint striations of chestnut coloration throughout it. Making it more
glossy. He ran his fingers through it, reluctant to leave. But he had to. He
had to search just once more for Shinoa. He had to make sure Yuu was safe
during the day. He had to make sure Yuu got to the safe zone during the school
hours where he wouldnt be found.
Mika had woken up at the sound of Yuu's father leaving the house. He waited for
a few minutes to see if he would immediately return from checking the mail or
some other menial task. But then he heard the garage open and the sound of a
car leaving before the garage closed again. Good, his dad should be gone long
enough for Mika to leave unnoticed. Though, he was vaguely concerned about
whether or not Yuu's father took note of Mika's car parked in the street.
'Hopefully he didnt.'
He carefully rolled out of the bed, careful not to wake Yuu, then dressed
himself and went to the desk to rifle through it until he found blank note
paper and a pen. Thoroughly, he outlined the plan on the paper for Yuu to
follow, along with dates and times that they should be safe enough to return to
school and that their absences would be cleared while in hiding. It took Mika a
lot more effort than anticipated to get the absences to clear, since Shinoa
usually did that, but he managed. Then he placed the letter on Yuu's night
stand before making his retreat through the window again. With one last look
back at his mate, he smiled at his sleeping form. "I'll see you soon, Yuu-
chan." Then he slipped out of the window and made his way to his car.
~
The sheets felt cold when Yuu stretched his arm out to where Mika had been
laying. 'He's gone?' Yuu sat up. Rubbing his eyes and yawning before he spotted
the note left on his bedside table. Opening it, he read it's contents;
*Good morning Yuu-chan! I'm sorry i had to leave so early but I had some
errands I had to run. I did not get a chance to tell you last night, for
obvious reasons.*
Yuu blushed in recollection.
*But what I am about to tell you is very important. You can not go to school
for the next 2 days. Your absence has been excused, and you are to stay with
Shiho and Yoichi at their safe house during the school hours. Then return to
your house promptly after the appropriate time it takes for you to normally get
home from school. Please Yuu-chan, whatever you do, don't do anything to draw
attention to yourself! The address for you to go to is at the bottom of this
letter.*
Yuu glanced at it before continuing reading.
*I will return to you tonight. If I dont, DO NOT try to search for me. JIDA has
likely been closing in on his. So be aware of that when you make phone calls
and send texts, Don't tell anybody your location over the phone, and make sure
nobody is following you when you go to Yoichi and Shiho. Remember our promise
Yuu-chan. You mean everything to me, and if something were to ever happen to
you, I could never forgive myself. So please, just do as instructed and stay
safe until the others say the threat is gone. Please trust me. And never
forget, I love you.*
Yuu read the letter again and again, until he fully comprehended what was
happening. 'Mika ran errands? Seriously?' He suspected what those particular
errands might be. And the thought infuriated him. Yuu remembered the promise he
had made to Mika. But now the blond was breaking his own rule? Yuu assumed he
had went to search for Shinoa. 'You stupid dickhead!' He almost crumpled the
letter in his fist, but stopped himself. If Mika really did go and search for
her, he might be in trouble. Though the letter made it seem like he was very
confident in his actions. He would do what Mika instructed, although he was
reluctant about it. And he would stay optimistic. Mika was smart, and quick on
his feet, and he was very strong. "I'll wait for you Mika." Yuu whispered into
the empty room. "And you better fucking come back!"
~
 
The journey to Shinoa's secret safe house for herself took several hours for
Mika to reach. It was in a smaller city outside of Shinjuku, that Mika had to
take several different train stops to get to. Mika made sure that nobody was
following him as he made his way to the station. Nobody had tailed him while
leaving Yuu's neighborhood, so he was confident that nobody had known he was
there last night. But while driving through the streets in Shinjuku, he became
paranoid. So he drove and sped through random roads until he was sure that if
somebody had been following him, then he had shook them off of his trail.
The train ride there was crammed with people, which made it easier for Mika to
try to blend in with the crowds, but he kept having this strange feeling as if
someone was watching him. The back of his neck kept tingling at the inclination
that somebody's eyes were on him. Yet, cautiously looking around at the people,
he couldnt spot anyone looking at him. Everyone pretty much minded their own
business, either on their phones or reading a newspaper or simply staring off
out the window. 'Stop freaking out Mikaela...everything will be fine...' All he
had to do was get close enough to the apartment building that housed Shinoa's
safe house, and see if he can pick up on her scent there.
He knew her smell, he'd been friends with her long enough that he could
distinguish it from other beta's in a crowd of people. He didnt even have to
knock on the door to see if she was there, he just had to get to the same floor
it was on, and try to pick up her scent. If she was there, he would slip the
encrypted note under the door that ensured everyone was still safe and the
location where to meet him after a couple of days if she was able to. They had
come up with their own secret language in order to communicate under threats of
JIDA. Kind of like a version of Pig Latin, but more complex. So if the note was
every discovered by somebody else, nobody would know what it said. That was his
safest bet.
But if her scent wasn't there...He had no choice. He'd have to inform the group
that Shinoa might not be returning to them. And they might have to disappear
again. He'd have to explain to Yuu-chan that they needed to run away together.
No matter the outcome, he wanted to run away with Yuu-chan. He wanted to
protect him and keep him safe. And maybe if the group could relocate to a safer
place far away from any threats of JIDA, wherever that may be, then maybe he
could start a family like he'd always wanted. He'd never thought it would be
possible to find somebody he would want to have that with, but the thought of
Yuu-chan and him living together peacefully and raising their offspring
together gave him such a sense of rightness, that he yearned for it. And
yearned to return to him today as quickly as possible.
Mika quickened his pace as he approached the apartment building. Warily looking
around him to see if there was anyone watching him, he entered to lobby and
took the elevator to the 7th floor. Slowly, he stalked down the hallway towards
the apartment door. He paused temporarily, closing his eyes and inhaling
deeply, filtering through the many lingering scents in the air to try to make
out hers...
'She's not here...' Mika realized with trepidation. Shinoa was...gone. He knew
this. He felt it in every bone in his body. JIDA had caught her. Her own
father, had taken her away. Just like what had happened with Shinoa's sister.
His eyes misted over as he did an about-face and started walking towards the
elevator again. 'I'm so sorry Shinoa...You sacrificed years of your life to
keep all of us safe, yet in the end, we couldn't protect you in return...'
Guilt and self loathing mingled with his fury. His fists clenched in his
pockets and he grit his teeth. Fighting the urge to put his fist through the
yellowed old drywall with renewed hatred.
JIDA had taken so much from them. Their happiness, their friends, they'd been
the cause of everybody's childhood abandonment. They treated them like
terrorists. As if they had ever done anybody harm. All they'd ever wanted was a
chance. A chance to live normal, peaceful lives. To be happy with the people
they loved and cared about. To be able to work and own their own homes and
build families like a normal human being. But they were denied those rights.
They were abominations, miscreations of nature in the eyes of JIDA. They didnt
get to live in peace and happiness. They were meant to be hunted down and
destroyed before they could get the chance to breed more abominations. As if
being the way they were was a choice. Even being a homosexual, pansexual,
bisexual, or anything other than a traditional straight beta would flag you for
suspicion and they would send those beta's to places like mental institutions
to try to 'cure their disease'.
Mika's head pounded. It was sick. All of this was sick and twisted and wrong.
The world they lived in was so fucked up. And Yuu was so new, innocent, and
ignorant when it came to these issues. Mika wanted nothing more than to take
Yuu away from all of this and make sure he was never faced with the dangers and
heartache he would have to face one day if he were on his own.
He took a deep breath to steady himself as the elevator doors opened to the
lobby. 'I'm coming for you, Yuu-chan.' Mika hurried to the exit. Hoping that
Yuu did as instructed as was safely hidden away with Shiho and Yoichi. 'Just
sit tight until I get there.' He walked along the busy sidewalk towards the
direction of the train station. Eager to see his mate again...
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!" agonizing, teeth clattering pain caused every muscle
in Mika's body to tense and freeze up as he collapsed to the ground. Convulsing
as his fingers curled, he was unable to move to pull free the prongs stuck
between his shoulder blades that were the source of the pain. 'A taser gun?!'
A knee pressed into his back as soon of the electrical current had stopped. The
heavy weight on his spine pushed the air from his lungs and the prongs dug in
deeper to his skin as the man pressed on them with his knee and grabbed at
Mika's wrist to bind his hands behind him.
'No...no no no NO NO! PLEASE GOD! NO!'
He couldn't breath. He couldnt even see straight as the man tightened to rope
painfully around his wrists. Mika struggled wildly. Try to shake the man off.
Trying to get to his feet so he could fucking run. There was a shuffling sound
behind him that sounded like at least three other people hopping out of a
vehicle and sliding open a van door. Other people on the sidewalk had paused to
watch the scene. But nobody helped. Nobody said a word. They just gaped at him
as though he were a criminal that was finally getting justice served to him.
"Bag him." Mika heard somebody say before a thick black sack was shoved over
his head, shrouding his vision with suffocating darkness. He was then hauled to
his feet by two sets of hands. He struggled with renewed panic and kicked out
and swung his elbows blindly as he tried to escape their clutches. But they
were just too damn strong as they dragged him towards the waiting van. Roughly,
and with what seemed like little effort, the men tossed him into the vehicle.
Slamming the door shut before speeding off.
~
Yuu knocked on the door for apartment number 303. As instructed by Mika, he was
to wait here for him during school hours. He shuffled nervously, afraid to have
to face Shiho and Yoichi after what had happened yesterday. An apology ready at
his lips, and hoping they would forgive him for his stupidity. He realized how
much he needed these people. He was terrified about what was happening. And
anxious that Mika had left to 'run some errand' in god knows where for god
knows what. 'Please be ok...' Yuu nibbled his thumbnail. 'Please come back safe
to me-'
The door opened and Yoichi's face lit up upon seeing him. "Yuu! Thank god
you're alright!" He grasped Yuu by the arm and yanked him inside before quickly
closing and deadbolting the door shut. Throwing his arms around him in a
comforting embrace.
Yuu hugged him back, stroking the boys wavy brown hair with a shaking hand.
"Yoichi...I-I'm so sorry about yesterday. I d-dont know what come over me! I
just-"
Yoichi placed a finger to his lips to shush him. "Its ok Yuu! I understand.
Shiho and I forgive you. I promise."
Yuu gave the boy the look that statement deserved. Unbelieving that Kimizuki
was that forgiving.
As if on cue, the pink haired alpha came around the corner. Crossing his arms
over his chest and scowling. "We have better things to worry about than your
stupidity and jealousy Yuu."
Yuu flushed, studying his shoes in embarrassment. "I'm still sorry...and I'm
sorry for kicking your ass."
He tsked at that, pushing his glasses up with an index finger. "Count yourself
lucky that I went easy or your scrawny omega ass!"
Yuu scowled in return.
"Though, you do pack quite a punch, I'll give you that much. At least for an
omega. It's been a while since I've fought with a worthy opponent." Kimizuki
smirked at him. Causing the corners of Yuu's mouth to twitch in response.
"Whatever, telephone poll."
Yoichi beamed at the two of them. Delighted that everything was okay between
the group once more. Now if only the JIDA threat was gone. "Oi, where's Mika
at?" He asked. His brows drew together at Yuu's worried expression.
"This note he left me..." Yuu pulled the letter Mika had written from his
pocket, handing it to the boy. "He said he had something he had to do. And that
he would come back for me today once he was done."
Yoichi skimmed the letter with wide eyes. Before sharing a cagey look with
Kimizuki.
"What is it?" Yuu asked.
Yoichi handed the note back to him. "Its nothing Yuu. I'm sure Mika will be
here soon."
Yuu nodded in response. Carefully folding the paper and putting it back in his
pocket.
"Common," Kimizuki motioned for him to make himself at home. "I made breakfast
if you want any. Just try to stay calm until Mika gets here."
Taking off his shoes and setting his backpack down, Yuu joined the two at the
table to eat. Though he couldn't shake the sense of foreboding niggling at his
subconscious. Making it difficult for him to eat anything.
~
Mika didn't come for him...
Yuu's stomach was in knots as he lay cuddled up with Yoichi on the couch the
next day. Mika hadn't come yesterday. He didnt come to his house that night
either. And now it was going on 2:00pm today, and Mika still hadn't shown up to
get him from Yoichi and Kimizuki's hideout. Tears filled his eyes as Yoichi
lovingly rubbed his back and hair. Their entertwined legs lay over Kimizuki's
lap, and the alpha would occasionally place a hand on his knee in reassurance.
The constant contact and touching was awkward at first. And Yuu questioned
whether or not being touched by others was wrong and meant he was betraying
Mika. But Yoichi reasured him that there was nothing wrong with two omega's
hugging or cuddling. It was instinctual for omega's to seek comfort from other
omega's in times of stress or affliction. The thought made Yuu feel better
about it. And he began to crave Yoichi's comforting touch and smell more and
more until their bodies ended up pressed tightly together and their limbs
wrapped around each other.
Yoichi seemed to be feeling Yuu's pain, and tried to take some of it from him
by holding him tightly. It helped. There was nothing sexual attached to their
actions. Even when Yoichi gave him soft kisses on his mouth and over his neck,
Yuu felt nothing but relaxed from it. 'How odd...' Yuu would muse to himself.
But remembered that he had told himself to keep an open mind. Apparently,
omega's were asexual toward other omega's. 'Good to know.' And Kimizuki didnt
mind their intimate contact whatsoever. He barely seemed to notice. Just placed
a reassuring hand on Yuu whenever he would start trembling from trying so hard
to hold in his tears.
Though the pain in his chest had seemed to grow with each hour. It felt like
his chest was being torn open and the foreboding sense grew stronger and
stronger until he was in a constant state of fear. His mind telling him
irrational things like he had been abandoned by his alpha.
"Mika would never abandon you by choice Yuu." Yoichi had told him. "Though the
pain we feel from abandonment remains the same." He and Kimizuki shared a
concerned look.
"Once you know where Mika is, or when you see him again, you wont feel the pain
anymore. I promise." Kimizuki said. "Yoichi's right. Mika wouldnt abandon you."
"I know that..." Yuu sniffled. "But something bad happened. I can feel it. I
can feel that he's trapped. It feels like I'll never see him again. I just know
it!" he buried his face in Yoichi's chest. "You guys have to help me! You have
to help me find him!"
"Yuu..." Yoichi stroked his hair. "You know the rule. If Mika DID end up
getting captured, they will get you too if you go looking for him!"
"I dont care..." Yuu muffled. "They can take me too as long as I know where he
is..."
"Yuu!" Kimizuki snapped. "Dont be fucking stupid! Do you hear yourself?! If you
let yourself get caught, you could be bringing JIDA down on ALL of us! Is that
what you want? You prefer to fuck ALL of us over?!"
Yuu let out a shaky breath, shaking his head as he sat up. "No..." He looked at
the two with pleading, bloodshot eyes. "But we have to do something! You're
Mika's friends. You're Shinoa's friends! After all they've done for you, you're
just gonna give up on them so easily?!"
Kimizuki placed his head in his hands. Exasperated. Yoichi ruefully studied his
fingers.
"Those people are dangerous Yuu...I dont know what we would be able to do..."
Kimizuki shook his head, lightly pulling on his hair.
"Shiho..." Yoichi's voice broke as his own eyes glossed over.
"Im sorry Yuuichiro. I really am...They both are very important to us. But i've
never heard of anybody coming back from being captured by JIDA..."
Yuu choked out a sob, hiding his face against his knees as Yoichi wrapped his
arms around him once more.
"Dont lose hope Yuu." The boy told him. "Mika might just be hiding somewhere
with Shinoa until this blows over. You never know!"
But Yuu knew...They were gone. Mika was gone...And nothing short of being
captured himself would allow him to see either of them ever again.
~
It had been 10 days since Mika's disappearance. 11 since Shinoa's. The threat
was gone, the remaining group returned to school. Though nobody really spoke to
each other. They all sat in silence every day during lunch. Brooding over the
fact that they had lost two of their strongest members within 24 hours.
Everyone was still terrified, constantly looking over their shoulder. Wondering
if they would strike again. Most nights Kimizuki and Yoichi stayed with each
other. And occasionally Mistuba would stay with them when she was feeling
particularly paranoid. They were all concerned with Yuu's appearance and
mannerism though. He didnt eat. He rarely slept. He kept to himself. And his
face had become pale and gaunt. The luster in his green eyes had become dull
and lifeless. Going through the motions of his life in a zombie-like state.
The pain in Yuu's chest had turned into an empty and hollow ache. Losing Mika
had changed him. And the loss he felt grew with every passing minute. Yuu
realized what this meant. The bond with Mika was being torn from him. This was
absolute loss. This was true pain. Worse than anything he had experienced in
his entire wretched life. This was purgatory.

     Dont Hate Me :)
     I love you guys!
See the end of the chapter for more notes
Complete sensory deprivation could cause insanity. And Mika was beginning to
feel the inklings of madness creeping into the corners of his subconscious. The
only sounds he could hear was the sound of his blood pulsing in his ears, his
own ragged breathing, critters or insects that found their way into the the
soundproof isolation cell. Though he couldnt see a thing through the black hood
they kept over his head. He couldnt speak to break the silence through the gag
in his mouth. And even the tiny sounds of an insects legs was so loud to Mika
that it caused his imagination run wild. Thinking any moment the creature would
start eating him and borrow into his itchy skin. He felt a spider crawl over
his foot, making him flinch from it and scream against the gag with irrational
fear of it. Insects were never something he had been afraid of until now. Until
he had become completely helpless.
And thanks to the shackles and bonds the kept him knelt in the stress position,
he couldnt remove the hood to see the cause of his fear. To even see anything
at all. He couldnt even stand to get away from the bugs, or even lay down to
relieve the pain in his knees and the balls of his feet from the hours he would
spend crouched on them. Every minute knelt like that seemed like hours. With
nothing but the thoughts of his Yuu-chan to comfort him and keep him sane.
Along with depriving him of his senses, they'd also deprived him of food, water
and sleep in order to keep him in a state of delirium. Prisoners were more
talkative that way. But Mika found hope in the thought that if they were still
bringing him out of his cell for 'questioning', then they didnt know he had a
mate yet. And didnt know who or where Yuu or the rest of them were. It eased
his mind somewhat, knowing that Yuu-chan and the others had kept their word.
They could torture Mika as much as they wanted, he'd make sure nobody he cared
about would ever have to go through this hell.
He was wondering though, why he hadn't picked up on Shinoa's scent in this
place. She could be in another ward, but he still held onto the hope that she
wasn't here at all.
He'd try to scent for her again when they let him out for questioning today.
The bouts of torture he would receive every other day were his only indication
of the amount of time he had been trapped in this place. If he was correct,
this was day number twelve. They usually gave him a recovery day in between his
interrogation days. They'd still keep him shackled to the wall, but they
wouldnt make him kneel or wallstand. He got to lay on his back or his side on
the cold hard floor as he regenerated from the injuries he'd sustained, just so
they could reopen the freshly healed wounds or remove the regrown fingernails
once more.
His maddened mind almost looked forward to the torture sessions. Just to be
able to see once again. To be able to have physical contact and a conversation
with somebody. Anybody! Even though they would cut his skin and break his
fingers or toes, or pull out teeth just to see if he healed faster than a beta
would.
He had...And it fascinating the probing eyes of the scientists and doctors who
would look at him as if he were a frog they wanted to dissect and poke and prod
at to find out what would happen. So they would cut him more, and deeper, and
contemplated removing organs to see if they would grow back as well. (They
wouldnt).
~
Mika opened his eyes at the sound of the cell door opening. His inclined his
head towards the noise, although he couldnt see, he knew the routine. Without a
word they would unshackle him from the wall and haul him to his feet. Mika's
legs shook and he knees almost gave out from under him from the pain of
kneeling for so long. Somebody else would press the lip of what Mika assumed
was a stun baton between his bare shoulder blades to urge him to walk with the
two others grasping each of his arms and shoulders. They made their way through
the familiar twists and turns of the corridors of the ward. Mika noticed that
his jeans hung more loosely on his hips than they had a couple a days ago. And
he still doesnt scent Shinoa, before he heard another door open as he was led
inside of a room and sat on a cold metal chair as the connecting a tong chain
to his shackled ankles. 'They're asking me questions today before torturing
me...' Mika realized.
The hood was finally yanked off of his head. He blinked rapidly against the
florescent light. Eyes burning and watering with the effort to see. But he
could make out his tormentor, Kureto Hiiragi, sitting in his customary spot of
the other side of a large desk. A blond, dead eyed woman stood stoically beside
him. He hated that woman almost as much as he hated Kureto. Her eyes were an
almost familiar green color. And it was too close to Yuu's striking green eyed
hue that he found the sight of her an insult to Yuu's memory. And her eyes were
vacant. Probing like the scientists. But reminded him of a dead fish's eyes.
She disgusted him. Especially when those eyes of hers would light up while she
slowly sliced off bits of his flesh.
"How are you today Mr. Shindo?" Kureto asked.
Though Mika just glared at him, the man clearly knew Mika was still gagged and
couldnt speak. The typical questions were repeated. "Where are the rest of your
group? Do they attend the same school? Do the anti-beta's have a secret agenda?
Are they conspiring against JIDA?" On and on he went, though this time Mika
noticed he seemed almost, excited? Like he was anticipating something. They
took the gag off of Mika to answer, but the blond kept his mouth shut.
"I have a new little game we can try today Shindo!" Kureto said excitedly and
he tossed the files he was reading onto the desk. "This is getting a bit boring
and repetitive, so I think a little variety in our relationship would be good
for us. Do you agree? Lets bring the spark back!" He nodded towards the dead
eyed woman and she moved behind Mika, out of his line of vision as he heard her
retrieving something.
When she returned, she placed an oxygen mask over his nose and mouth. Mika
shook his head wildly to get it away from his face, but one of the guards held
him still and she secured the mask.
Kureto smiled menacingly. "Curious what it is? Well I'll tell you." Kureto
stood to sidle over in front of Mika, perching against the desk before him.
"Instead of breathing oxygen, we are going to be releasing a condensed version
of the scent of omega's in heat into your senses. You see, you dont have to
tell us whether or not you have a mate, because if you dont react to this, we
will already know that you do." He motioned for them to turn on the gas.
Mika's eyes widened, and he struggled anew to shake the mask off of his face.
But the omega scent hit his nose, so strong he could nearly taste it. He
squeezed his eyes shut. Willing his body to react. To show any signs that he
wasn't bonded to anybody. Desperate to keep the fact that he actually hate a
mate a secret. These bastards could use Yuu against him, and hurt his omega
worse than they were hurting Mika!
But the scent did nothing. Not even an hint of arousal. His pupils didnt
dilate. His saliva didnt become thicker. And he was vaguely repulsed by the
smell because it wasn't Yuu's...Mika kept his head hung. Even when Kureto
started chuckling gleefully and they removed the mask.
"HAHA! So you DO have an omega on the outside! Finally we're making some
progress!" Kureto gripped Mika's hair and forced his head up to look at the
man's smug expression. "Is it a female? Or are you a faggot alpha?"
Mika spit in his face. Earning a crack of Kureto's iron-like palm across his
cheek that made his ears ring. "Hmm...Maybe you need a little more incentive to
speak." Kureto went to his office door, opening it as the guards ushered in...
'Shinoa!' Mika's breath hitched at the sight her her. He rose-brown eyes were
sunken in, and she was wearing a tattered nightgown. He hair was loose and
matted with tangles and she had prominent bruises all over frail looking arms
and legs and her wrists looked raw from the shackles binding her hands in front
of her. But when she met his eyes, she gave him a reassuring smile. Mika read
her expression. She hadn't talked...
Kureto shoved her to sit down in an empty chair, similar to his own on the side
of the room facing him. They secured her to the chair as well. Kureto placed a
hand on her head. Almost in a fatherly gesture towards his daughter. "I'm sure
you get the picture on how this is going to work Mika. You continue to test my
patients. If you dont start telling me where the other's are," He pulled out a
small, sharp looking blade "I will be forced to hurt your little partner in
crime. And just for spitting in my face, I'll start by cutting hers..."
Kureto dragged the tip of his blade from the corner of just below Shinoa's eye
to her jawline. Leaving an angry red line of crimson as she screamed and
wailed.
"STOP IT!" Mika shouted hoarsely. "SHE'S YOUR DAUGHTER YOU SICK FUCK!"
Kureto swung the blade towards Mika's face, slinging droplets of Shinoa's blood
onto his nose and cheek. "No daughter of mine is a god damn anti-beta lover!
Why so protective of her Shindo? Do you rut with her too, like the animal you
are?!"
Mika bared his teeth at the man. "I've never touched her! She knows nothing,
just let her go!"
"Haha! I told you how the game works!" Kureto twirled the blade in his fingers,
then plunged it into Shinoa's shoulder. A shrill scream was ripped from her.
"You want me to stop? Then tell me where the omega is!"
"Shinoa won't heal like I do! You know that! Hurt me instead! Stab me instead!
You're going to kill her!" Mika struggled to stand under the vice like grip of
the guards holding him in his seat. Tears mingled with blood striped down
Shinoa's face as she looked at him with pleading eyes. Giving him a barely
noticeable shake of her head.
Kureto saw it. And looked between the two with interest. "Ooohh...I see how it
is now..." He crouched before Shinoa, placing a gentle hand over the cheek he
had lacerated. She flinched as she gaped at the man in horror. "You poor,
stupid child. You love this alpha dont you?" Her face set into a hard glare,
causing Kureto to smile wider at her. His evil grin belying his gentle tone.
"Yet he see's you as nothing more than a worthless beta." He pointed at the
blond staring after them. "His kind? They think they're better than us. But
look who's more powerful now! We are Shinoa!" He stood. "He should be punished
for breaking my daughters heart."
"D-dont..." Shinoa croaked out, looking away. But the dead eyed woman grasped
her face, and forced her to look at Mika.
Kureto was already dismissing the guards, and hauled Mika up by the hair and
slammed his face and chest against his desk.
When Mika heard the sound of a belt buckle clinking as he was held down by the
back of his neck, he knew what was about to happen.
"No! GET YOUR HANDS OFF OF ME!" He attempted to kick back at him but the
shackles on his feet kept him in place, and Kureto slammed his head against the
desk again. Causing his vision to temporarily blacken.
"I'll like it more if you struggle." Kureto whispered in his hear as he yanked
Mika's pants down. "You'll like it better it you dont."
Searing hot pain shot up the blonds spine as Kureto shoved into him, hard. Mika
grit his teeth. Not wanting to cry out. Not wanting to give the bastard the
satisfaction. Keeping his body rigid while Kureto pounded into him, Mika's hips
banged against the edge of the metal desk painfully. He met Shinoa's eyes as
she gaped on the horrific scene, tears spilling from her eyes without cease as
the woman held her head and made her watch. But she kept her face determined,
resolved not to break down in front on him. His stared into her eyes for
courage, and it helped to drown out the pain and the sickening feeling and
smell of blood dripping down the backs of his thighs. Yet Mika's eyes grew
haunted when Kureto finished inside of him and pulled out with a satisfied
huff. Mika shivered in disgust, and finally closed his eyes. Hearing Shinoa
wretch and dry heave.
Kureto leaned over him to whisper in his ear again. "How's it feel to be fucked
by the beta you repulse? I'm loving the defeated look in your eyes."
Mika shot daggers at the piece of shit looming over him. Bearing his teeth
menacingly as he sneered, "That was real nice sweetheart. We should do it again
sometime."
Kureto's brow twitched at him before his tossed Mika to the ground. The blond
winced at the pain still throbbing up his ass, but otherwise lay there
lifeless.
"We're done here." Then Kureto exited the room, instructing the guards to take
the blond and Shinoa back to their cell.

Guren removed the headphones when the audio cut out, sparing Guren from what
was about to happen next. Rubbing his bleary eyes. He was thankful for Shinya
for editing this last week to remove anything he knew Guren wouldn't want to
hear.
If it wasn't for Yuu's current state of existence, he would likely have never
listened to this audio from 2 weeks ago, but he was concerned as to why Yuu
felt the loss of Mika so strongly. 'I have a bigger problem on my hands than I
initially thought.'
Guren had bugged Yuu's bedroom, as well as put a tracker in his cell phone,
ever since the night Yuu had gone looking for pillows. Showing nesting
behavior. 'The drug was wearing off.' He had thought at the time. He had been
drugging Yuu since infancy to prevent just this exact thing from happening! To
keep him from presenting. To keep him safe from JIDA, the very people he was
employed by.
Which made protecting him easier, since he knew where they were looking for
Anti-beta's and could steer them from his son. Since he was in command of
several brigades out searching for them. He'd fought tooth and nail to get
himself in this position of power since the day he left Yuu and his mother when
Yuu was 1. Making them change their identities and hide all connections with
him. Stealing suppressants, and destroying evidence of his birth. Forging
documents so Yuu could attend school.
The beginning of this all, was a stressful and dangerous time. Especially for
Yuu's mother, who was reluctant to go along with the plan at first. She had
thought it inhumane to let the boy live with the risk of being destroyed. And
maybe it was, but Guren was insistent. He had bribed her cooperation with money
and it warranted her compliance in return. But as Yuu started growing slowly
towards manhood, the task of keeping Yuu innocent and repressed grew more
challenging. And she started to resent the boy for their constant state of
danger. So she'd punish him relentlessly whenever he had come into contact with
anything remotely sexual, hoping to keep him from anything and everything that
could trigger his heat cycles. And started increasing the doses of his hormone
suppressants every night once puberty started.
Then Yuu's mother had died in a freak accident. Although Guren had suspected,
that it was no 'accident'. And now he was faced with the task of picking up
where the woman had left off. Guren decided to transfer him to a new school to
cut ties with anyone Yuu knew that might have become a romantic relationship.
Concealing his existence under his own roof. JIDA still didnt know he had a
son. Or that he lived with him. Thats how good Guren was at concealment.
Yet not good enough. Though Guren found it hard to repress the kid, since he
was already woefully ignorant and those 'urges' have seemed to have been
successfully repressed. Her harsh treatment of the boy had seemed to work. So
Guren wasn't all that worried about sending him to the prestigious Academy. He
was so painfully awkward in social situations, that Guren would have thought
that the boy would never make any friends, especially as a new student at a top
ranking high school like that.
But he had. And they were anti-beta's. And his son had even caught the
attention of a young blond Alpha who had triggered his heat, and pulled the
wool off from Yuu's eyes. Guren realized too late that he had been too
trusting, too lenient. Because as soon as Yuu walked into the house nearly 30
minutes past curfew, disheveled and flushed, Guren already knew what had
happened. And the embarrassed expression on his son's face cemented his belief
that the blond had claimed him. And there was nothing Guren could have done to
stop what nature had intended for them.
17 Years of hiding, and planning and drugging his son, even almost overdosing
him the night Yuu had nested to stop him from going into heat, all of it for
nothing. They were so close, only a few more months until Yuu was 18! And if
Guren had been more strict he might have prevented all of this, if he kept Yuu
from presenting until then, then the boy never would and he would finally be
safe.
But it had happened anyway. All because of this blonde kid, Mika, who claimed
to be in love with his son. And now, because the Alpha had been caught, Yuu was
slowly wasting away.
For a moment in their conversation, Guren hadnt expected Yuu to say it back.
That perhaps the feeling was one sided. But no. Yuu was in love with Mika as
well.
JIDA had been trailing Mika for weeks, and Guren couldn't stop them. Not after
they have captured the beta girl, a friend of his and Yuu's, as bait to lure
him out of the protection of his community and from Gurens own protection he
had fortified for the blond, just to search for his friend. It was a stupid
move on the Alpha's part. And frustrating as hell. Guren couldnt protect
everyone Yuu cared about, and the Alpha kept putting himself and Guren's son in
precarious situations. It was hard enough keeping JIDA from trailing the blond
to his and Yuu's own damn house! He wanted to hate Mika for it. Wanted to hate
him for claiming and loving his only son!
But in all honesty, he couldnt. Guren knew all too well of the desires of the
heart. You couldnt really pick and choose who you fell in love with. It was an
organic thing. Sometimes it happened without realization at first. He had
realized this when he had fallen in love with a beautiful young omega woman.
About a year before he was supposed to marry Yuu's mother. He had wanted to run
away with the omega girl. To protect her and live in peace and have a family
with her. Yet, in the end, he couldnt save her. Her own father, the general of
JIDA, had taken her away. They tortured her, and eventually killed her. And she
had never revealed her ties to Guren. Their secret affair went to the grave
with her.
Guren had decided to never love again after that. He never truly loved Yuu's
mother either. And Guren had hardened his heart against anybody who wasn't a
beta. Went unfazed by snide conversations about anti-beta's and looked away
uncaring when he saw them arrested on the streets. They were all captured or
killed eventually anyway. What was the point of caring about a fleeting thing?
Something meant to be destroyed?
Then Yuu had come into the world shortly after he had wed. He was a bit small.
A tiny pink and naked, screaming and crying mess. And ironically, an omega...
Yuu's mother had suggested that they dispose of him as soon as possible.
Deeming him a misfire and a mistake, and that they could always try again for a
normal child. But when Guren had held his son in his arms for the first time,
the omega's tears had eased. And he had gazed up at him with large green eyes
so full of trust, that Guren knew he couldnt do it. This was his son, no matter
what he was. And for the first time since Mahiru's death, he felt love for
somebody again.
It seemed like everybody now had love for his son. He didnt know Yuu very well,
but he did know that he was a kindhearted person. No matter how many times his
friends or Guren himself would fuck with him, he didnt hold a grudge. He was
quick to forgive, and eager to please and curious about life. Whether or not
that was his omega trait, Guren didnt know. But he did know that Yuu was unique
in his stubborn ways and his determination once he set his mind to something,
and those traits reminded him somewhat of himself.
A lot of things about Yuu reminded him of himself. Thats why Guren knew, if Yuu
said he loved Mika, he meant it.
And now that they were bound together, Yuu wouldn't be able to live without
him. As evidenced by his sons gaunt, pale appearance, he was already wasting
away from the the effects of abandonment.
Guren ran a hand through his hair, sighing in defeat. "Fucking hell..."
There was already a plan in motion to save Shinya's niece, Shinoa. Now he'd
have to figure out a way to save Yuu's alpha alongside her. Easier said than
done. And in order to do so, he was going to have to tell his son the truth.
About everything.
 
~
 
Around 4pm, Guren heard the front door open and close. Yuu was an hour late
coming home. Likely out looking for Mika. He saw Yuu's slumped form passing his
office doorway as he made his way to his bedroom.
"Yuuichiro! Get in here." Guren was nervous, but he'd prepared himself. Going
over and over the explanations in his head. Making his voice steely and his
face as passive as possible.
Yuu leaned against the door frame, looking at him with bloodshot eyes. "What?"
the boy croaked.
"You're an hour late! Where were you?" Guren clipped. Though his eyes wandered
over Yuu's face in concern.
"s-sorry..." Yuu murmured. "I was just...a friend of mine-I was just looking
for somebody...won't happen again." He turned to leave.
Guren took a steadying breath. "You mean your alpha?"
Yuu's shoulders tensed as he halted mid-step. Looking over his shoulder at him
with pupils the size of pinpoints. "W-what?" He started backing from the room
with error in his eyes. "What are you t-talking about-?"
"Have a seat Yuuichiro." Guren motioned towards the armchair across from where
he was seated at his desk. But Yuu shook his head slowly, eyes widening further
as he took another step back from the man. "Do as I say Hyakuya!" Yuu jumped at
his harsh tone. "I already know everything, so there's no point in lying or
trying to run away. Just sit, and calm the hell down."
With an audible gulp, Yuu hesitantly complied. Sitting stiffly in the chair and
studying Guren with a dubious expression. "What do you mean, you know
everything?"
Guren leaned back in his chair, crossing his arms. "I know that you're an
omega-"
Yuu sprung from the chair with a cry, holding his hands out protectively as he
tried to make for the door again.
"Yuu! For fucks sake! Stop!" Guren stood as well, holding his palm out towards
him in a gesture of opulence. Trying to come off as less threatening to the
boy. 'Ok, maybe sitting in my office like king of the castle wasn't the best
approach.'
Yuu's wide, cagey eyes glanced from Guren's hand, then back to his face in
quick panicked movements. "Yuuichiro," Guren said in a gentler tone. "I've
always known. Just...sit with me please."
The boys eyes narrowed at the use of the word 'please.' Guren never said
please! But he inched closer to take his seat again. Guren sighed, leaning his
hip on the desk as his son glared daggers at him. "So, you mean you've known
all along? Since I was born?" Yuu asked.
"Yes."
Yuu was thoughtful for a moment, staring down at his hands. "Then-then why am I
still alive?" his voice was almost a whisper. "Why didnt you kill me?"
Guren gave him a hard look. "Because, idiot, you're my son. Whether you like it
or not."
That earned Guren another glare.
"No matter what you are, I couldn't bring myself to dispose of you when you
were born."
"What about mom? Did she know?"
"Yes." Guren said solemnly.
And the tone of his voice told Yuu that she hadn't been happy about his
existence. "Is that why she hated me so much? Why she treated me the way she
did?"
Guren sighed. This part wasn't going to be easy. Guren sat as his desk again.
Hoping the barrier of it between them would make Guren's explanation's less
cringe worthy and uncomfortable. "I wouldn't necessarily say she HATED you. But
he harbored a lot of resentment. Especially towards me, since I chose to keep
you alive. And she treated you the way she did because she was trying to
repress your omega...tendencies."
"Is that why you left?" The lack of resentment in Yuu's words about that
subject surprised Guren.
Either the boy didn't really care, or he had simply made peace with it. "No. I
left, to keep you and your mother safe. I had to make you disappear somehow.
And try to make you appear as much like a beta as possible. That's why..."
Guren hesitated for a moment. Not sure how to explain this to him. "Your mother
and I have been drugging you since you were a baby. That combined with the
repressive punishment, we were hoping to keep you from going...into heat. Until
you turned 18, when you would be able to live as a beta. Permanently."
Yuu was looking at the man as if he had sprouted tentacles. "Y-you...you've
been DRUGGING me?! With what? For how long?!"
"With a highly concentrated hormone suppressant." Guren ran his fingers through
his hair, begrudged by his own statement. "It also had a sleep agent in it so
we were able to...inject you with it while you slept, without waking you.
You've been receiving them until just recently..."
Contemplating this, Yuu recalled what Mika had said about him possibly getting
pregnant, and that it might be too late for suppressants... "These suppressants
you injected me with...d-do they...um. Does that mean, that..." Yuu found it
difficult to ask Guren something like that. The words died on his lips.
"Does it prevent you from getting pregnant? Yes." Guren answered quickly. "And
you likely never will."
Yuu's head snapped up at that. Tears pricked his eyes. 'Never?...NEVER?!'
After Mika had disappeared, Yuu had had a small sliver of hope, that just maybe
he was pregnant now. And if Mika was truly gone forever, that a part of him
would be able to live on. But no, Guren had taken that away from him! "How
could you just take that away from me?!" Yuu bellowed.
The outburst made Guren blanch. "It's a good thing I did! Or you would be in
even more danger than you are now! It's hard enough hiding you from them now,
how could I hide you if you were pregnant you moron?!"
"That wasn't your decision to make! I could take care of myself!"
"Ha!" Guren scoffed. "You have no idea how close they came to finding you!
Especially with Mika sneaking in and out of my god damn house late at night
while I'm asleep and unaware!"
Yuu gasped. "Y-you knew about that? How...?"
"Yuu, I have security camera's all around the outside of this house. I've known
about Mika ever since he dropped you off past curfew."
Yuu's face flamed as he hid his face in his hands. Humiliated. 'Oh god! Guren
saw us Making out!' He curled in on himself defensively. 'Oh god! He saw me
sneaking out to go have sex in his car!' Although Yuu was sure the actual act
wasn't caught on camera, things had gotten a little hot and heavy before they
drove to that empty lot. 'holy shit...just kill me now!'
"Its not like I ever watched you two, you moron! That's disgusting! Calm down!"
Wait...The drugging, the security camera's, the information he had about Yuu
being in danger...Guren had a government job...
He looked back up at the man, who was still looking at Yuu incredulously. How
did this man obtain all of these things? He never gave it much thought before,
but..."What do you do Guren?"
The question caught him off guard. "What do you mean?"
Yuu looked around the large office, cagily. The Degrees on the wall. The
certificates and medals. The money for that expensive school and this expensive
house in the city...He had the sudden feeling like he was a mouse caught in
trap. "H-how did you get drugs like that? Why do we have so much security?"
Yuu's voice rose an octave with each question. "How were you able to conceal my
identity all of these years? How do you know about JIDA keeping tabs on me?!"
There was a long pause that Yuu would have thought comically dramatic if his
mind wasn't in such turmoil.
"I'm surprised you've never figured it out. God you're dense." He rolled his
eyes at the boy. "It's because I work for JIDA."
They stared at each other for long moments. Until comprehensions dawned in
Yuu's wide eyes. 'Guren knows about Mika...Guren works for JIDA..."
Yuu stood abruptly, "WHERE IS HE?!" He knocked over the chair he'd been sitting
in. His fists clenched so hard his knuckles were white.
A shadow of guilt passed over Gurens face. The man rose slowly to go look out
the window. But he didnt answer.
"Guren! Did-did he get taken by JIDA?! I know you know!" Yuu slammed his fists
on the mans desk, trying to get him to look at him. "Are you the one who took
him away?!" At Gurens continued silence, icy cold dread shivered up his spine.
"Is he-" he swallowed. "Is he dead...?" Yuu's voice broke as fresh tears pooled
in his eyes.
"No." Guren said simply. "I had nothing to do with his arrest. But he's still
alive..." 'Though he might not be for long, if Kureto continued on the way he
did with him...' He thought.
Yuu gaped. "But you did nothing to stop them? Even knowing what he was to me?!"
Yuu's voice was almost a bellow, which caused Guren to finally face him.
"There was nothing I could do, Yuu. They had been tracking his movements for
weeks. He was protected when he was here, at least when I was awake to keep
JIDA far from here, at his own house, and at the school. But they used Shinoa
as bait, and lured him out. I couldnt deter them without revealing my agenda.
My main concern is YOUR protection. Not the protection of some alpha!"
"He's not just some alpha! He's-" Yuu clenched his fingers into his shirt,
above his aching heart. "Guren...you have to get him out of there! You have to
help him! Please!"
"I can only do so much Yuuichiro." It was hard trying to protect the blond in
that place when he was basically Kureto's property now. The man had a sick
interest in the kid. "I can't just simply go get him and escort him out! You
have no idea of the amount of security. Once you're in, you're in."
Yuu yanked at his hair frantically. "I'm not going to believe that! There has
to be something we can do! We need to come up with a plan or something! What
about Shinoa? She's there! She can help! She's helped us all at the school and-
"
"Yuu, she's a prisoner there, just like Mika. She's not capable of anything
anymore."
"But she's a beta!"
"That doesn't matter. She helps alpha's and omega's. She's considered a beta
criminal. She's treated just as bad, or worse. And I will be executed if they
catch me trying to help them escape-"
He suddenly felt Yuu wrapping his arms around is back, burying his tear stained
face in his chest. He looked down at the top of Yuu's head. It was shaking.
"Guren..." Yuu muffled. "Mika...Shinoa...they risked everything to keep the
rest of us safe...how could you just let them suffer there after everything
they've done for me?"
He felt weird hugging this man. But he didnt know what else to do. He was
asking his father for the ultimate sacrifice, possibly his life on the line, in
order the save his friend and his mate. He knew he should never ask somebody to
risk their lives, especially for somebody they didnt care about. But Mika was
the only person who had ever shown him love. He needed him like he needed air.
This pining for him and not knowing if he was alive or not was killing him.
Literally. But now there was a chance. Now there was a thread of hope! And he
knew with everything that he was, that Mika would come for him if the roles
were reversed.
"It hurts, Guren. Living hurts without him..." Yuu sobbed.
Guren placed a hand on his head. Lightly rubbing his hair.
"I've never asked you for anything. Please...just help me save them. Help me
save Mika...I-I love him..."
Guren sighed in defeat. "Alright."
Yuu peeked up at him. Startled. "R-really?!"
"It's not going to be easy, Yuu." His eyes hardened on the boy. "So if you're
going to go through with this, you must do EXACTLY and I say! And question
nothing."

'The pain of it all is worth it...' Shinoa let her mind wander as she lay on
the hard concrete of her cell. The tatters of the flimsy nightgown she still
wore from the night her father had his men take her away, was barely shielding
her from the chilling air of this god forsaken facility.
She had been sure of herself before. So confident that she had the capability
to keep them all safe. To keep Mika safe. She never had a slip up when it came
to erasing surveillance, bribing others for discretion and protection, warning
others of possible threats or JIDA following them. She'd learned to expertly
bob and weave through her fathers harsh bouts of questioning every day after
school. Direction his attention towards other random alpha's and omega's she
was aware of in order to keep his eyes off of her group of friends. It was
wrong, she knew. She betrayed and sacrificed innocent anti-beta's for the sake
of the people she cared about, who had probably fought just as hard for their
own freedom. And she had always hated herself for it. She continued to betray
her own family. But she couldnt hate herself for that. It may have been the
only thing she had ever done right in her life. She'd never betray the people
she cared for; Shiho, Yoichi, Mistuba, even the new kid Yuu she had grown very
fond of. He was fun and lively and easy to get riled up, especially when it
came to Mika. He was perfect for him...
'Mika...' Shinoa wrapped her arms around herself, curling into a tiny ball.
'Idiot...' They had made promises to each other years ago. Promises to not do
anything reckless if the other disappeared. To never try to go looking for
them. To keep themselves hidden and just continue living their lives to the
best of their abilities.
When Shinoa was first brought to this place almost a month ago, she had
resigned herself to her fate. She would steel herself and never reveal anything
about her friends, no matter how hard they beat her. No matter how many times
they whipped and sliced her skin. No matter how long they deprived her of
sunlight and food and water. They treated her like the others, it didnt matter
that Kureto was her father. He'd disowned her, just like he had her sister. And
she was accepting of it. She would die here, and her knowledge would die with
her. Everyone would be safe. Win-win.
Then Mika had broken his promise. He stupidly went out and searched for her.
Likely checking her safe house which her father had discovered not long before
she'd been captured. That's what JIDA had wanted, to use Shinoa as bait. They
knew she had friends who were anti-beta, and if she was close with them, they'd
be lured out by her disappearance eventually. So they assumed. And they had
been right.
'WHY MIKA?! You beautiful-caring-stupid idiot!'
And now they had him too. And now they were torturing, starving, and degrading
the proud and loving blond in unimaginable ways. Breaking him down bit by bit.
Stripping him of his status and bringing him as low as an alpha could get. And
Kureto, that worthless piece of shit who didnt deserve to exist, had even made
her watch the first time. And to Kureto's amusement, Mika had been eerily
silent during it. His lifeless and stoic expression was even more chilling than
any screams or cries from him could have been. And seeing what was happening to
Mika would have caused her to vomit if there had been any food in her stomach.
But even after all of that, Mika never revieled any information. Never gave
them his mate's identity. He was loyal to Yuu and their friends to a fault.
They could torture the blond forever, he would never betray them. And he had
never begged them to stop hurting him. He took the pain and humiliation until
they grew tired of his screaming or grew bored with his lack of willingness to
talk. But he had begged them to stop hurting Shinoa. Had went berserk when
Kureto cut her face and stabbed her. Directing the man's attention back on
himself.
Shinoa let out a broken sob. Squeezing her eyes shut at the memory.
And then her father had done that horrible thing to him. And Mika never broke
eye contact with her until it was over. As if She had given him courage, and he
gave her renewed courage in return. Until she saw the and luster and life
slowly drain from these those cerulean eyes. His gaze becoming blank and
unseeing through his tears. His body becoming lifeless as the dragged him away.
'They'd finally broken him'. Shinoa had realized. And it was only going to
continue until he either talked to end it, or he died. And by the way he looked
at the time, the blond was already in a bad way. She couldnt imagine how he was
now that another week had passed. She suspected that he wouldnt last much
longer.
'If Mika died-' Shinoa silently let the tears flow from her bloodshot eyes. 'I
dont wanna live in a world that doesnt have Mika in it...'
She'd loved the alpha since shortly after she had met him. At first she had
been horrified with his brazen behavior, and thought of him more as a pet that
needed to be trained. But the Mika she had first met wasnt the same Mika that
she grew to love. As they started spending more time together, she discovered
that he was smart and kind although a bit arrogant at times, but he cared about
their friends just as much as Shinoa had.
They'd worked side by side for years to hide themselves and their friends from
the others, while Shinoa always appeared as an innocent and oblivious beta who
didnt know anything about their status in life. They'd worked to provide their
friends with secure homes to live in, combining their money to get the group
into the same school so they could look out for them. It amazed her how quickly
he jumped on board with the whole scheme. And how much more cautious he had
become since their first encounter.
And all the while, and against her better judgement, her heart slowly started
pining for the young alpha. Even though she knew they could never be together.
Alpha's and beta's simply didnt mix. She knew this this, but she couldnt help
herself.
Then Mika had met Yuuichiro. And even though the boy appeared and came across
as a beta, Shinoa could see the interest in Mika's eyes whenever she had
mentioned him. The inner battle within himself and his yearning expression
whenever he was around Yuu. And Shinoa had thought that maybe, it WAS possible
for an alpha to love a beta. And if it didnt work out with Yuu, maybe she would
have a shot with the blond. Then Yuu had presented. He'd been an omega all
along. And it tilted Shinoa's world off kilter, because the sliver of hope that
had bloomed within her had been crushed. And to take it a step further, it had
turned out that Yuu was his mate, the first and only person Mika had fallen
for.
The fierceness and passion that he possessed for Yuu made Shinoa envious of the
omega. But no matter had much she wanted Mika to belong to her and have him
look at her that way, she could only be a spectator. And she'd had to learn to
be happy for them. She couldnt be selfish. It was too painful for her fragile
heart. And she wanted Mika to be happy. He deserved some happiness in his life.
He was a wonderful person. Yuu was a wonderful person. All of her friends
were...
They were all too good for this fucked up world where alphas and omegas werent
aloud to live and to love. And to Shinoa, their love was more pure and strong
than anything these betas were capable of. Beta's willingly destroyed their own
children if they were born anything other than a beta themselves. They tortured
and murdered children, or left them on the streets to die. They tore apart
families and destroyed lives. All for the sake of their 'pure world' concept.
They were the real animals here. Not Mika.
If only there was a chance of escape. If only there was somebody who could help
them. But Shinoa knew all too well, nobody could help them now. There was no
escape once you were here. She and Mika would die here.
Two final tears more was all she allowed herself. "You shouldn't have come
looking for me..." She whispered to the silence. She wanted to hate him for
breaking his promise. For putting himself in danger for her sake. But she loved
him too much to muster any feelings of hatred towards him. "I'm sorry,
Mika...I'll see you soon. Then we can watch over Yuu-chan and the others
together again."

     YAY! So I rewrote this to make it not so disturbing as it initially
     was. I had planned on more violence and suffering in this chapter,
     but decided against it. I think this fits better anyway. :)
     I wasn't going to post because its my birthday today and I was gonna
     be busy all day. Then the rain came and the opportunity presented
     itself. So yay!
     Leave a comment or Kudo if you like the chapter! Every one of them is
     a gift <3 And they make my days brighter :) See you in part 2!

Usually the conference room was a dull place for Guren. Usually it was General
Hiiragi Kureto droning on about his agenda, world views, promises of world
domination and extermination of the Anti-beta population. Kureto assumed that
there was an outside organization that was ran, and funded entirely by an Anti-
beta community of an incredibly large scale. Though they couldn't locate their
compound, nor did Kureto know their goals, the man was growing incessant and
anxious about it. Guren could tell. And he snickered to himself. Guren was well
aware of the Anti-beta organization. And he was in contact with the woman
funding and running it.
Although today, the meeting seemed casual compared to the others. There was
really no new information or intel to report about, so the meeting how shortly
turned into a banter between Kureto and the other higher ups. As a higher up
himself, Guren was allowed in on these meetings. Yet all he wanted to do was go
back to his office and take a nap. These people grated on his last nerve with
every word. He heard them laughing and jeering with amusement as they talked
about torturing whatever meek omega, or hardheaded alpha they were assigned to
interrogate. Guren wanted to jab a pen in their necks. Imagining what these
people would say and do to Yuu if he were held prisoner here made Guren
bristle.
"What about that blond alpha, Kureto?" one of the men asked. "You break him in
good yet?" Guren's ears opened up at the mention of Mikaela. Kureto was never
one to take it upon himself to torture Anti-beta's. Yet a handful had piqued
his interest enough to assign them to himself. Mikaela was one of those
unfortunate souls.
"That alpha whore still wont talk. But he mind is definitely slipping!" The man
said in an accomplished tone. "I guess you could say I broke him of his
willpower. Now he's too complacent. It's starting to bore me. He babbles to
himself at times, which is amusing, but I liked him better when he put up a
fight!" Kureto chuckled along with his comrades.
Guren studied the dark wood of the conference table in silence. Afraid if he
opened his mouth, a string of insults would slip through. 'These people are so
twisted'. They reveled in making the omega's and alpha's alike submit to them.
Though the omega's were submissive by nature and didnt fight back as harshly
when they were taken by these men, they enjoyed watching them suffer when they
went into heat. Watching in fascination as they would keen and writhe and beg
for touch in their cold empty cells. Desperate for anything to relieve their
pain. The JIDA men would taunt them, tease them with alpha pheromones they'd
extracted from the alpha's in captivity, giving them only a whiff to amplify
their heat, then take it away. Making them suffer more and more until the omega
was a shuddering, wretched shadow of who they once were. Many of them died from
being treated this way. Their heat would get too intense, too prolonged from
weeks of artificial stimulation and triggering, but with nothing to ease it.
Their body temperatures rising too high until they suffered brain damage and
the heat killed them.
The alpha's were harder to break. Mika lasted a surprisingly long time in
comparison to others. With Kureto's constant attentions, and infusing the alpha
with his beta essence and forcing his submission, there was a chance of
permanent damage to the alpha. Not only mentally but physically. His bond with
Yuu slipping. His alpha pheromones neutralizing. They called it
'experimentation'. Guren called it sadism. It was sickening, and Guren wondered
to himself if the alpha was even worth saving anymore. How could an alpha
protect and care for an omega anymore in his state? Alpha's were a genetically
dominant species. And being dominated constantly by a beta? Guren wondered if
he was just too far gone now. He needed to come up with a way to find out. To
see for himself if there was any fight or instinct left in the blond...
"You're awfully quiet, Colonel Guren." Kureto remarked. Guren almost jumped at
being addressed by the man while he was deep in thought.
'Play along.' He thought, before saying nonchalantly. "What can I say? I think
it's a bit unfair that you get to have all the fun with the pretty alpha." They
all gaped at him with a surprised expression. 'Shit, too much?'
"Well well, Guren. I didnt know you had it in you! Curiosity got the better of
you eh?" Kureto stood, retrieving the access key for the blond's cell. "Tell
you what. Since you've never had the chance to play with our pets here, I'll
lend you mine for today's session. Let's see if you can put some fight back in
the boy." He handed Guren the key card. "He's gotten so used to me, i think
that this is just what he needs! Rough him up good."
Guren wanted to snarl at the man. 'Disgusting pervert...' But he kept his face
impassive. 'Play along...PLAY ALONG!' His smirked at the General. "With
pleasure sir."

The silence was deafening. The weight of the air was torture. A constant haze
clouded Mika's mind. His hallucinations becoming more apparent. He'd see a
green eyed-raven haired boy standing before him, or catch a hint of the
sweetest scent he'd ever imagined. But that's all they were imaginings. His
sensory starved mind and body were creating images and smells and sounds that
would ease his suffering as he was nearing his end. He felt a constant ache in
his chest. A gnawing sensation that made him want to dig his nails into his
sternum and dig it out. He'd vaguely recognized the sight and smell of the
green eyed boy. 'Omega...he was my omega...' But he couldn't put a name to the
face. He couldn't even make that claim any longer. He didnt have him anymore.
The bond he had with the omega was almost nonexistent. The only remnants left
were the frequent hallucinations and ache inside of him.
The loneliness and isolation ate at him. 'I wonder if Kureto will come see me
today...' Mika mused. He'd been rewarded for his complacent behavior whenever
Kureto slaked himself on him. Fighting back only caused him more pain. It was
no use fighting back somebody who was stronger than himself. And it led to more
lonliness. More isolation. More torture.
Kureto rewarded him by allowing Mika to remain in his cell without the hood
over his head or the gag in his mouth the first time he submitted to the man.
The next reward; not having to remain in the stress position. Then by having
the freedom of moving his unshackled arms. And now he remained completely
unshackled in his cell. Although still starving and dehydrated, and in a
constant state of pain and extremely slow regeneration and healing. He couldnt
escape now even if he tried. He was too weak.
Mika soon realized that submission was good. Submission meant rewards. Now he
had the luxury of playing with the insects who would visit him as he lay on the
floor of his dark cell. No longer afraid of them. 'They're my friends...' His
crazed mind told him. He smiled at the spider crawling leisurely over his palm.
'My friends keep me company. They dont want to hurt me-'
Then the spider bit him. Mika frowned at it. "How could you...?" He whispered.
"You traitor..." His voice was hoarse and cracked as he squished the spider in
his hand. His eyes teared up, immediately regretting his actions. Now he had
nobody to talk to. "Look what you made me do..." He whispered to the smudge
that was once a living thing on his palm. Mika laughed maniacally. "Ha! You're
nothing now!" He whiped the smudge on his torn pants, lying back on the floor.
Trying to fight the dizziness from his sudden surge of aggression. The
loneliness started creeping back over him, making his skin itch. He closed his
eyes. Feeling as if the ground was rippling beneath him from the tremors
wracking his body...
A familiar metal clanking noise reached his ears. 'Kureto's coming for me..."
Mika sluggishly rose to his knees as the door to his cell opened. Hunching over
and baring his neck in submission as he held out his wrists for the guards to
shackle him. Although the shackles were pretty much unnecessary at this point.
'If i'm good, Kureto might feed me. Might give me water. I have to be good...'
The guard hauled him to his bare feet. His hands a bit more gentle on him than
Mika was used to. They made their way through the corridors, but Mika's mind
registered that they were taking a different route than he was used to when he
was being taken to Kureto's office. Mika's steps became hesitant, fear skitted
through him. "You're taking me to Kureto?" He croaked out. But when Mika didnt
receive a response, he chanced a glance up at the guard who was escorting him.
Mika didnt recognize this man. This was somebody new. This man had white hair
and light blue eyes. He felt uncomfortable around the new guard. The routine
was being disrupted, Mika was unsettled by the changes.
 
The white haired man opened a door to an office Mika had never been to, opening
the door slowly and announcing their arrival. "Colonel Guren, I've brought you
Mr. Shindo." He addressed a tall, dark haired man across the room. His back was
turned on them as he was hunched over his desk reading something. "Very well,
you're dismissed. Thank you."
The white haired man left. Closing and locking the door behind him. Mika
swallowed and blinked at the bright lights. Swaying on his feet from the effort
just to stand. 'Guren...Where have I heard than name before...?' It seemed
familiar to him. Like a distant memory. The man turned to him then, eyeing
Mika, observing him. Mika just stared back dazedly.
"W-where's Kureto...?" Mika rasped.
"Kureto wont be seeing you today."
Mika's brows drew together. He was confused. "Why...what d-did I do wrong?"
Mika had stopped fighting him. Mika was being good for him. Why didnt he want
to see him?
Guren shrugged, but his eyes were fierce. "Maybe he's just tired of you."
"T-tired of m-me?" Mika's trembling legs gave out as he dropped to his knees.
Breathing heavily. Suddenly very afraid. Was this man going to do worse things
to him? "Is that why I'm here with you? Are you going to finally kill me?"
"No." This Guren deadpanned.
Mika swallowed dryly. "Are you going to torture me more?"
"Would you talk if I did?"
Mika paused a second. Not really remembering the reasoning behind his torture.
When he looked back on it, all he could remember was the pain. Not the
questions. Not what he was trying to keep from them. Nothing. How could he talk
when he didnt know what to talk about? He shook his head in response. Yet there
was something niggling at his subconscious. 'Where have I heard the name Guren
before?"
Guren advanced on him then, causing Mika to tense, falling back on his ass as
he scooted away until his back hit a wall. When Guren was before him, he
crouched down so they were face to face. Mika gulped at their close proximity.
But he was able to study his face through his hazy vision, his addled mind
taking in the mans features. The hard line of his mouth. His sculpted jawline,
black hair that shown lighter brown coloring as the light behind him filtered
through it...Mika sucked in a breath, catching the familiar scent coming from
him. He knew this scent...and there was a trace of an omega's scent lingering
around this man-
Mika froze, eyes widening as memories that seemed so distant, memories he had
been repressing, fought its way to the surface. Mika running his fingers
through soft hair of the same color. Of gazing down at a face with a similar
yet younger structure. Of eyes boring into his. Green eyes. Bright like jewels.
They matched the eyes of the face he'd been hallucinating. The scent on this
man was the same scent he'd caught in the air on occasion...
*Mika, Guren's always a dickhead. You don't need to almost kill us to get me
home!*
Mika's head throbbed. The words of that green eyed boy ringing in his mind-
'Yuu...' Mika squeezed his eyes shut through the throbbing pain in his head.
'I...I used to have a mate named Yuu...' Mika had been repressing his memory of
the omega. Putting him completely from him mind. So that in case they broke
him, and if he did end up talking, Yuu wouldn't be mentioned. But now his scent
was so close. His scent was on this man. This 'Guren'. And the blond remembered
where he had heard the name. Realized this was Yuu's father.
His lips parted as he gaped at the man before him. "Y-you...you are-"
Guren grasped Mika's jaw roughly, causing Mika to grit his teeth menacingly.
This bastard was Yuu's father. Yuu's father was a JIDA member! So did that mean
Yuu was here? Did Yuu know what his father was? Did his father find out about
them? Is that why he was here with him now? To punish him for being with his
son? Or was he going to do what Kureto did to Shinoa and hurt Yuu in front of
him?!
"Where is he?!" Mika snapped, though his voice was barely above a whisper.
Guren scowled at him. There was a flicker of recognition in the man's eyes. He
knew who Mika was talking about. And something about Guren's expression was
telling the blond to keep quiet. At least that's what Mika's baffled mind
processed.
Then the man gripped Mika's jaw harder, bringing his mouth scant centimeters
away from his own. "Don't worry Mika..." Guren whispered. His lips brushing the
blond's as he spoke. His voice was so low, even the alpha with his sensitive
hearing could hardly make out his words. He nearly blanched at the use of his
nickname. These people wouldnt know what his friends called him-! Then their
lips make full contact.
The blond muffled a cry against Guren's mouth, shackled fists futility trying
to push him away. But he was just too weak. Guren forcibly pushed them down,
and pinched the alpha's chin to force his mouth open.
Tears pricked Mika's eyes as he squeezed them shut. 'This is so wrong! This is
sick! This is Yuu-chan's father! This is-'
Guren slipped his tongue into his mouth. But before Mika could attempt to bite
the man's tongue off, something small and metallic slipped into the blond's
mouth. Then Guren removed his tongue and ended the 'kiss'. Looking down at the
blond with disdain.
Mika bit down on the metal object that was now in his mouth. 'A key?'
"You fucking stink." Guren sneered.
Mika blinked up at him quizzically as the man stood to his full height and
stalked back over to his desk. Pressing a button on the intercom atop it.
"Bring the guards." Guren said into the microphone. "He needs to be hosed off
first." Then Guren crossed his arms and glared at the blond still against the
wall on the other side of the room.
'What was happening?' Mika wondered. 'Why did he slip a key into my mouth?'
Guren looked at him with annoyance then. Likely because of Mika's befuddled
expression. Mika realized then that he might be giving their secret away by the
dumbstruck look on his face. Mika hardened his eyes and thinned his lips into a
scowl. Guren seemed to relax at that.
"Apparently Kureto doesn't wash you very often. I'd prefer you clean." Guren
scoffed.
Mika flushed at that, but held his glare. He didnt fully comprehend the
situation, but his instincts were telling him that this man was putting on an
act. There wasn't the scent of a threat coming from this man. But there was
something in his scent that was calling out to Mika, almost pleading with him
to cooperate. With what, Mika wasn't sure. He was too tired to think straight.
Too delirious to fully grasp onto reality. But he had the slightest feeling
that this wasn't a trick. This man had the intention of helping him with
something. 'What was this key for...?'
Two men burst in suddenly to retrieve him. The white haired man wasnt with them
this time.
"Keep your mouth shut, and dont put up a fight. Or you will punished." Guren
told him as the blond was escorted out. And there was an undertone
of...something...in Guren's words that only his advanced alpha hearing was able
to pick up. Although Mika still held his glare, there was a light of
comprehension that came to his blue eyes. A small shred of renewed hope
bloomed.
 
~
Guren slammed into Shinya office. Ignoring his white haired partner as he
rummaged through the mans desk to retrieve the mouthwash he had stashed there.
Swishing the liquid around in his mouth before spitting it into the waste bin.
Shinya chuckled. "That bad huh?"
Guren grimaced, shooting a look of annoyance at the man. He knew the office was
bugged. Kureto didnt trust his own comrads. He trusted nobody, actually. Hence
the security camera's in all the offices. Except for Kureto's own office, and
his brother Shinya's. Yet he still didnt trust Shinya enough not to bug the
room. Although Guren never behaved suspiciously around the man, he had
surveillance and microphones in his office as well. Which was why he'd had to
slip Mika the key in the manner he had done. He had to continue his little
charade to avoid suspicion. He knew Kureto would be watching him. Whether out
of interest, or speculation, Guren didnt know. But he always assumed the worse
with that creep.
He glanced at Shinya sitting on the couch. Small smile on his face. Calm, cool
and collected. He was nothing like his brother. How they were cut from the same
cloth was beyond him. He was Guren's closest friend. And Kureto's closest
comrade. If there was still in inkling of trust within Kureto, he gave it to
this white haired man. Guren would almost feel bad that everybody in Kureto's
family was a traitor to him, if the man wasn't such a twisted, sadistic prick.
Shinya hated Kureto, the man had ripped their family apart for the sake of
power. So Shinya's loyalty lay with Guren, and Guren only. Although, he was
very good at concealing his hatred. And acted accordingly to his brother's
wishes.
Though when it came to Guren, he'd shown more loyalty than one could ever
expect from a comrade. The man had taken a bullet for him during a raid a
couple of years ago. When Guren had asked why, Shinya's response was, "You have
that kid to look out for, moron." Though Guren suspected there was other
reasonings behind Shinya's protectiveness of him. Suspicions he had quickly
pushed from his mind. Finding them ridiculous. Although a foolish part of Guren
had yearned for a second during the thought before he had squashed it.
Still though, Guren was eternally in this man's debt. He had helped him steal
suppressants for his son. Helped him conceal the boy. Supported Guren and
shared the same feelings about JIDA. He'd known about Guren and his son since
before Guren joined JIDA. Shinya was the only person Mahiru had confided in and
went to him for help when JIDA was onto her. Though not to save herself, but to
save Guren. And Shinya had no choice but to acquiesce to her final request. Had
thrown JIDA off of his trail, and had looked out for him in secret ever since.
Until Guren himself joined JIDA, and Shinya revealed that secret to him. Had
sympathized with the man because he had been in love with his niece. And told
Guren that he was also a victim of a forbidden love. Though never revealed for
who.
And now they were simultaneously plotting an escape attempt. And attempt, that
if failed, would cost them both their lives, and the lives of Mika and Shinoa.
Needless to say, Guren was nervous. And Shinya knew it. But so far, everything
was going according to plan. He just prayed Mika wasn't too stupid too catch on
to it.
Guren tapped his ear, then retrieved paper and a pen to write Shinya a note.
The only way they could speak freely in this place. They did this often.
Writing the truth on paper while speaking lies to the ears listening on the
other end of the microphones. It was second nature at this point.
"I didnt exactly enjoy the smell and taste of another man on him, if that's
what you mean." Guren spoke with a clipped tone. "Once he's hosed off and
cleaner I'll take care of him." While simultaneously writing down; 'He has the
key. I'll be heading out to the yard where they took him in a few minutes. Are
you sure the device out there will work?'
Shinya wrote back; 'I will activate it in 15 minutes. From then, he has 5
minutes to get through. Start your timer now :)'
Smiley faces? Really Shinya? Guren rolled his eyes and set his timer, before
writing back; 'I'll head over there now. Just be ready to snatch Shinoa when
the alarms go off.'
Shinya nodded. His jaw clenched. Shinya knew when there was a time to be
serious at least.
Guren stood, retrieved a lighter and hovered the edge of the note over it until
it caught fire. Holding it over the waste bin, he watched the words quickly
being engulfed and disappearing completely. Guren took a deep breath. 'Here we
go...'

     Now here's part 2 (of 3).
     xoxo
See the end of the chapter for more notes
Guren made his way to the empty yard. Looking on impassively at the alpha being
bombarded by the jet of water streaming out of the high powered hose. The
blond's skin reddening upon it's impact as he crumpled against the wall,
grappling at it for purchase against the onslaught, growling and snarling at
the guards who were hosing him.
'Good, he still has some fight left.' Guren thought. He almost smiled. Kureto
thought he had broken the alpha. Thought him as weak and meek as an omega. But
Guren could see the fire burning in his eyes. A renewed strength that wasn't
there before. Mika had got the message. The kid wasn't stupid. Even in his
deranged state, he was able to calculate the odds against him, had done what he
had to in order stay alive as long as he could. Had taken Kureto's cruel
treatments instead of risking a sooner death, and held onto the chance he would
survive all of this if he kept it up. Now his efforts would be rewarded.
Hopefully. If all went well.
Guren was aware of their crucial predicament. Having him hosed off was a big
part of the plan. His senses would become more acute and his awareness would
heighten under the shock of the freezing water. And he needed the blond out in
the yard for his chance of escape.
The perimeter was surrounded by a high voltage electrical fence. The fence
beyond that was barbed wired. One could get past barbed wire fences if they
knew what to do. Or if they were desperate enough to risk shredding themselves
to bits. But when he looked at Mika, and the malice rolling off of him in
waves, Guren had no doubt that the kid would be able to get through it. The
high voltage electric fence? Not so much. That's where Shinya came in.
Guren chanced a glance at his pocket watch, checking the timer. Three minutes
until the device activated. Guren's heart pounded in his chest. No doubt he was
nervous as fuck, but he tamped it down. 'Keep a cool head.' Mika was smart, and
he was strong even in his current state. He just had to find his footing, after
it being lost for so long...
Suddenly alarms blared from the loudspeakers of the facility. Deafening! Guren
winced at the loud obnoxious sound. 'It's starting...'
The two men hosing Mika off had abruptly stopped and turned to Guren in
puzzlement. Guren turned to them in mock panic, everyone knew what that alarm
meant. "RIOT! Everyone to the facility! NOW!"
"What about the kid?!" One of guards shouted over to alarms.
"Leave him here! He cant go anywhere anyway! He'll just cause us more trouble!"
Guren shouted back.
They nodded and ran toward the entrance. Yet before Guren joined them, he
looked back at Mikaela. His teeth were clenched, he was pissed. But he still
looked at Guren with anticipation. Guren flitted his eyes towards a section of
the electric fence that was lined with thorny bushes, cocking his head in it's
direction for a split second, before running off in the direction of the
building.
 
~
 
One thing that Mika could say was beneficial from the hose down, was that it
helped clear his head. The freezing cold water wrenching him from his stupor,
becoming more alert. He caught Guren's glance and gesture towards the direction
he indicated, and it became clear to him then. 'He's helping me to escape...'
Once he was alone in the yard, Mika produced the small key he had still
clenched between his clattering teeth. It looked like the key to the shackles.
Working the lock on them with his mouth, he nearly crumpled into sobs when one
of the shackles on his wrist came loose. Then he freed the other. His heart
slamming against his rib cage.
Fully mobile, he scrambled to the property line of the fence. Parting the
bushes and kneeling into the thorny twigs around him, until he found a spot
where there was a strange, two pronged metal pole holding part of the fence
about a foot up from it's usual place. The buzzing sound of electricity coming
from the fence was silent in this spot.
Mika tested it with a stick...No reaction. The device had grounded the
electrical current. For how long? He didnt know. But he frantically dug at the
thin layer of dirt until it hit concrete. Just barely enough space for him to
crawl through.
On his belly, he clawed at the earth, pulling himself through the threshold of
the electric fence. His hair stood on end when he heard the buzzing sound above
him once more. He'd been too slow, his legs still remained under the electrical
wire. A scant few inches were between him and electrocution. He could taste the
metallic heat in the air.
'Just a little...further...' And soon as he was past it, he rolled away from
the threat. Nearly hyperventilating from the adrenaline pumping through him.
His legs still felt wobbly as he came upon the other fence. This one with thick
metal barbs coiled around the the wire cables. Mika took a couple of deep
breath. In, out, in-he leaped through the small space between the bards,
gritting his teeth as he felt it catching and shredding on his flesh, his
pants, his hair. He grappled at the ground, uncaring how deep the barbs cut
into him. He'd endured worse than this. They caught on the bottom of his pants,
tearing the fabric and Mika wrenched his legs free.
'Im through!' He was out. His pulse sang in his ears as he grappled to his feet
and sprinted away from that place with every last ounce of energy he possessed.
His breath's coming out in choked exhalations, legs burning and aching from
lack of use. Gut twisting in agony. 'Shinoa...Shinoa...' She was still in
there. He was abandoning her. Mika grit his teeth. His instincts still screamed
at him to protect. But what else could he do? He was one person. One person who
had been degraded and used and weakened by these people, and he could do
nothing to save her in his wretched state.
Hot tears streamed from his eyes. Blurring his vision as he weaved and ran for
his life through the trees and shrubs thickly littering the terrain.
Until a pair of hands grasped at his bony shoulders, yanking at him. "AAAHHHH!"
Mika grasped at the arms of the piece of shit who tried to catch him, and threw
them over his shoulder. The man landed on his back with a loud 'oomph' sound.
Mika looked down at the being. Ready to paint them in their own blood. Ready to
tear them apart-
"Y-Yuu-chan...?"
There was a boy with bright green eyes and raven hair, looking up at him as he
lay on the ground. Clutching at his bare forearms and the scent of fear rolling
off of him. But he knew this scent. Knew those green eyes. But how was this
possible? Yuu wouldnt be here. His mind was playing tricks on him again! He was
hallucinating again!
Mika threw himself from the boy, holding his hands out in a placating gesture.
"It cant be..." Mika rasped. "It cant..." He couldn't seem to focus he vision.
Mika shook his head hard, stumbling as he backed up.
Yuu rose to he knees before the blond, looking up at him with pleading eyes.
"Its me! It me Mika!!"
Mika was still shaking his head, eyes squeezed shut as he mumbled, "a trick,
its a trick...Yuu-chan promised...Yuu-chan..."
Yuu shot to his feet to grip Mika's shoulders, but the blond flinched from him,
smacking his hands away as he stumbled further from the omega. His hands felt
too hot on his feverish skin. Too heavy. Too close. Bile rose in his throat
when the Image of Kureto's hands surfaced to the fore of his mind. Mika needed
to run. He needed to get away. Away from those images, away from this place.
Away from Kureto and his control over him. Away from the pain. Away from this
omega who smelled and looked like Yuu-chan. So beautiful it pained him to look
at the boy. He'd thought he'd seen Yuu in his cell. Had thought he felt his
touch and heard his voice. But it was all in his head. And if this turned out
to be nothing more than another hallucination, Mika wasn't sure how much more
he could take.
"MIKA! This isn't a trick! We're here to save you! Please, just come with me!"
the omega begged.
"S-stay away from me..." He throat felt so raw as he spoke. He dug his feet
into the dirt, ready to spring in the opposite direction.
"Kimizuki!" The boy shouted.
More hands on him. Stronger. Bigger. Alpha scent emanated. Mika backhanded the
other alpha, sending his glasses flying, fiercely growling and snarling like an
animal until he was free from their.
His sight suddenly blackened, he was in the dirt of his stomach spitting blood.
His jaw and temple sang from the kick he received. Although these scents were
familiar to his subconscious, his conscious mind only seized on one thing.
Escape. And these people were disrupting it! These people touching him...their
fingers digging into his flesh...He wanted to shed their blood in retaliation.
Mika shook his head, clearing his vision, tamping down the animalistic thoughts
and rage.
He felt a hand in his hair. Gripping it harshly, dragging him along the ground.
"God dammit MIka!" The girl hissed. "We are trying to help you! Just chill the
fuck out for a second!"
But he still struggled to get away. Despite the familiar smells. Despite the
scent of distress coming off of them. He was so desperate to escape that he
hardly recognized these people.
~
 
While Yuu and the others lay in wait as the alarms went off, Yuu crouched low.
Nervous. Sweating. Emanating scents that would give him away if anyone around
him were an actual threat. Kimizuki and Mitsuba lay in wait as well. They had
to snatch Mika when he came running down the hill. If they didnt stop him, he
would run past the road, off into the forest where they would have to struggle
to bring him back to the road to get him in the getaway vehicle. They didnt
have the time for. They had to stop him here and now.
Heavy footfalls started coming closer. Yuu's ears picked up the sound first,
but his scent was hard to distinguish. His heart fluttered and a lump rose in
his throat. As the being came closer, Yuu could make out the diminished, weak
scent. Along with chemical odors and the smell of beta and his own father.
'Mika...'
The blond rushed past him, almost too late, before Yuu made a grab for him. The
alpha acted instinctively. Throwing Yuu over his shoulder and onto the ground.
The impact wrenching the breath from Yuu's lungs. The omega's still wasting
away body ached, but he held onto the blond's wrist with a vice like grip.
'MIKA! It was really Mika!' The alpha blinked down at him in astonishment. "Y-
Yuu-chan..." Then Mika threw himself from him. Stumbling, mumbling things about
a trick. About the promise Yuu made to him, although the omega never planned to
keep it in the first place if Mika had ever been captured. And he still had no
regrets about his currant decision.
Though Yuu was so sure he would calm upon seeing him. That was his whole
purpose of his current position here in the woods and not in the getaway
vehicle. But Mika seemed as if he didn't believe he was there. Seeming afraid
to be seeing his face! Flinching from his touch. Mika seemed so lost to him.
Those bright blue eyes were vacant. Unfocused. Uncomprehending. And he was
demanding that he stay away. It made Yuu's chest ache...
He called out for Kimizuki to take him down. Mistuba would be his backup.
Considering how thin and frail the blond appeared, the amount of strength he
still possessed was baffling. He was running on pure instinct. Reason was
beyond him. He backhanded the pink haired alpha, causing him to reel from the
hit as Mitsuba used one of her patented kicks to Mika's head. Finally bringing
him down.
Yuu gaped at the scene. At the vicious growling blond being dragged along by
Mitsuba. The terror in his bloodshot eyes. The bruises and scars riddled along
his thin, naked torso. His low slung jeans barely being held up by his hip
bones and were covered in blood and dirt and shredded. His voice was hoarse and
weak as he protested Mitsuba and Kimizuki's handling of him. Yuu was told that
Mika had changed drastically over the last two months in that facility. But Yuu
wasn't prepared for...this. The once proud, beautiful, level headed and
affectionate alpha he had known seemed long gone. Replaced by this skeletal
hissing and snarling creature that didn't even recognize his own friends and
seemed terrified of his omega. Yuu's eyes watered at the sight. 'Mika...what
the hell did they do to you...?'
Yuu barely registered Kimizuki yelling at him. He felt numb and scared and
empty and a million other emotions at once.
"Yuu!" Kimizuki shouted. "Keep it together! We've got to get out of here!"
He nodded dumbly at his friend as he hurried after him towards the direction of
the road. The pink haired boy helped Mitsuba wrangle in the deranged Mika as he
tried to claw at her face and arms. Yuu wanted to throw his arms around him.
Make him believe he was really there with him. Make him believe that they were
his friends and here to help him. But Mika seemed sure that everyone was a
threat to him. His scent began to amplify as he fought, thick with hostility.
And it gave Yuu pause. He decided against touching Mika. At least for now. Now
was not the time. They needed to get him into the vehicle. Into some form of
relative safety.
They reached the empty rode. The trio glancing around. 'Where the fuck are you
Guren?!' Fear skittered up Yuu's spine. 'Did they run into trouble? Was Shinya
able to get Shinoa out?'
Lights suddenly flashed as a large black SUV skidded to a stop in front of
them. 'Thank god!' Yuu released a breath he hadn't known he'd been holding.
Throwing open the doors and hopping inside before Mika was forced in after him.
Mistuba jumped to the very back with Yoichi. Yuu's breath hitched upon seeing
Shinoa in his arms. Broken and bruised and she seemed even smaller than before.
Mitsuba took her from Yoichi and cradled to beta girl in her arms. Running her
hand gently along over the scar on her cheek. Shinoa lay unconscious under her
attentions. Yoichi then tried to reach out to Mika upon seeing him, but
Kimizuki held out a hand in warning towards the small omega. Yoichi shrank back
when Mika snapped his teeth at him.
Kimizuki sat beside Mika, who was in between him and Yuu. The blond still
trying to escape the vehicle before the door was slammed shut by the other
alpha with a loud rattle and the tires squealed as they made their retreat.
"Get him under control!" Shinya shouted from the passenger seat. Rifle in hand
as he peered out of the windshield and window, poised to shoot anyone who got
in their way. Guren white knuckled the steering wheel as he drove like hell was
upon them. Which it most likely was.
Yuu threw himself onto Mika. Hanging on tight as the blond grappled to get away
thrashed under Yuu's hold. The omega put all of his weight on the blond by
straddling him, burying his face in his neck. Tears dripping onto the alpha's
bare shoulder as he clutched Mika's head to his neck and made small reedy
sounds against his skin.
"Mika..." Yuu whispered. "Mika it's me! You're safe now!"
Nearly hyperventilating, Mika froze upon having his nose shoved into Yuu's
skin. Right above the mark he had left when they first bonded. Yuu
subconsciously released more pheromones. Silently calling out to his mate with
it. Pleading for Mika to come to his senses, to know it was really him...
Mika clutched Yuu's back harshly. Nearly clawing at him as he sank his teeth
into Yuu's scent gland with a cry. Drawing blood. Releases more of his
pheromones. Yuu winced at the pain, but cradled Mika's head closer. Keening
noises were wrenched from the omega's lips.
"Yuu!" Kimizuki was about to yank him off of Mika in fear of the crazed being
harming him further, but Yuu held a hand out to stop him. Relaxing into the
bite as he felt the months of gnarled anguish and emptiness ease as Yuu was
being marked by his alpha. Being once again infused with the blond's own
strengthening scent. Yuu sighed in relief.
"Mika..." He breathed. "I'm here for you..."
He lightly carded his fingers through Mika's tangled locks. Reveling in the
feeling of having Mika back. Momentarily forgetting they were in a car full of
blushing spectators and Yuu spread his knees wider to get closer to Mika. Under
normal circumstances, he would have been horrified with himself and embarrassed
beyond belief by his own intimate behavior. But Yuu couldnt find it within
himself to care. He had his Mika in his arms, and his struggling had
temporarily ceased. Yuu wanted to scream from all the emotions bubbling up in
his chest and throat. It was nearly strangling him. He could hardly believe
Mika was actually here. Alive. Tasting his blood. Instinctively taking Yuu's
essence from it within himself. Although Yuu could feel the unease and inner
turmoil from the blond, his alpha still knew him in the back of his mind. Could
feel Yuu's own suffering he'd been enduring without him and was easing it.
Mika released Yuu's neck from his teeth, glaring over the omega's shoulder at
Guren and Shinya in the front seats. A low growl emanated as he clutched Yuu
closer to him.
"Mika!" Yuu cupped the blond's face. Forcing him to meet his eyes. "Look at me,
everything's alright! You're out of there! Snap out of it!"
Mika glanced at the others warily.
"Don't you recognize us, Mika?"
There was a long pause between everyone in the car. Kimizuki and the others
were eyeing him expectantly. Mika's fingers digging into the fabric of Yuu's
hoodie as he met his gaze again. Breath's coming out in gasps as his vision
finally focused on Yuu's eyes, swallowing gulps of air before dropping his head
into the omega's chest.
"YUU-CHAAAN!" He sobbed loudly. Choking on air and shuddering. Dampening the
front of Yuu's clothing with his tears. Yuu held him like that until the
blond's breathing slowed to a more steady rhythm and slumped against him.
Passing out from amount of exertion he'd had to go through to get free. His
mind free from the turmoil and confusion at suddenly seeing his friends and Yuu
lunging for him outside the perimeter of that hellhole. Maybe not the best
approach, but they didnt think Mika would be up to have a chat in his
situation.
Yuu scooted back to his seat, laying Mika's head on his lap as he rifled
through the small dufflebag at his feet. Retrieving a hoodie and threading the
blond's arms and head through it. Fighting to hold back his own tears at the
sight and feel of the scars and lacerations on Mika's back and chest. He ran a
hand over his cheek, swiping the tears he found there away. His face remained
unmarked for the most part. Only a few small scratches and bruises. Unlike
Shinoa...
He glanced back at his beta friend. Guren was right, they'd treated her badly.
Had even cut her pretty face and left a large scar on her cheek. And she looked
just as thin and starved as Mika did.
Yuu wasn't told all that had happened to them these past two months, but upon
seeing Mika and Shinoa's condition, rage boiled up inside of him. Shinya had
successfully smuggled Shinoa out. Guren had helped Mika to get himself out. But
for Yuu, escape wasnt enough. The people that did this to them needed to pay.
How were they aloud to get away with this? How could they do this to people
just for being different than them? Hearing about it was one thing. Seeing the
result their prejudice though...
"Yuu." Guren said quietly. "Dont go thinking irrational things."
Yuu looked up to see Guren peering at him through the rear-view mirror. 'Am I
really that easy to read?!'
"Where we're headed, the people there are organized, have their own military
forces. They've been conspiring against JIDA for a long time. And still, they
are waiting till the right moment to strike. I know you want revenge, Yuu. But
you're only one person. Get those brazen thoughts out of your thick skull.
Learn to have some patients."
Yuu grit his teeth. 'Patience?' He'd been patient this entire time. Patient
through the weeks of waiting for Guren to give them the green light on their
escape plan. Every day that wore on, Yuu would wake up in a panic. Thinking
that Mika was dead. He'd patently waited for hours in the woods outside of the
facilities fence line, praying and hoping with everything he was that Mika
would be able to get out of there. Praying that he caught onto Guren's plan.
Praying he wouldnt be electrocuted and caught on the barbed wire border. It was
a miracle in itself that the alpha had the ability to get free in his
condition. Yuu was sick of patience. He wanted action! He wanted to make that
Kureto bastard who had been hurting his family pay.
Yuu choked out a sob as he rested his forehead against Mika cheek. "Will they
be ok, Guren?" Yuu whispered.
The group all looked at Yuu's father. Wondering the same. Guren glanced at him
in the mirror again. "I can't be sure..."
Shinoa had been unconscious since Shinya smuggled her from her cell while all
of the guards where occupied with trying to control the escaped prisoners
causing the riot. Shinya had wired several the cell doors to the alpha ward to
open at once. Choosing the prisoners that were still new and still had enough
strength to put up a big enough fight. While Shinya made his way to the newly
unguarded beta criminal ward to retrieve Shinoa. Making his way through the
underground maintenance tunnel and to rendezvous with Guren who had procured
their getaway vehicle with Yoichi inside to care for the girl. Shinya was ready
to take down anybody who had noticed him escaping through the tunnel entrance,
but nobody had followed as the sped towards the area where Yuu and the others
where to retrieve Mika. Mika was safe from the skirmish and unguarded out in
the yard. But that didnt mean that he wasnt being watched.
There was always a chance that guards were still posted up in surveillance, and
had seen Mika make a run for it. And still, nobody was following. It seemed
almost too easy at this point. Which made them all wary.
They had a twenty minute drive to the airport at the breakneck speed Guren was
driving. It wouldn't be easy for JIDA to catch up to them. Guren just prayed
that their ride was ready and waiting for them at the airport when they got
there.

Ten minutes away from the airport, Mika stirred his head on Yuu's lap. Everyone
stiffened as the alpha scented the air and tensed. Opening his eyes slowly, he
sprang from the omega, nearly missing Kimizuki's face when Mika swiped at him
when splayed fingers.
"Fucking hell Mika!" Kimizuki blanched as he dodged the attack.
Mika's head collapsed back onto Yuu's lap. "Sshh...Mika..." Yuu soothed.
Lightly petting his hair until those blue eyes focused once again. Mika blinked
several times at his surrounding before he sat up again slowly. Staring out the
window at nothing but darkness. Realization of the events leading up to that
point sank it.
"W-what happened...?" The blond rasped dryly. Guren reached back upon hearing
his voice, handing him a bottle of water, Mika took it tentatively. Eying it,
and then Guren suspiciously before breaking the seal on the cap and bringing it
to his mouth with shaking hands. He practically squeezed the plastic flat as he
downed the bottle's contents in several large gulps. Gasping and nearly choking
once he was finished. Mika hadnt had water in two days, and he knew drinking
that much that quickly wasn't going to sit well.
"You managed to get out of the yard after you were hosed off." Guren began.
"But apparently you put up one hell of a fight when Yuu and the other came to
get you."
Mika stared ruefully in remembrance at the crumpled plastic still clutched in
his hands. Then glanced behind him when he caught the familiar scent of his
beta friend. "Shinoa..." His eyes widened at her appearance. He hadnt seen her
since...
Tossing the bottle to the ground, Mika dropped his head in his hands. Bending
between his knees and squeezing his head so hard, that Yuu had to pull at his
wrists in fear of the alpha cracking his skull. He flinched from Yuu's touch,
making the boy's brows furrow.
"This is all my fault..." Mika choked out.
"What? how the hell is this your fault?!" Yuu chastised. "Its JIDA who's done
this! Not you Mika!" Yuu placed a gentle hand on the blond's shoulder. "Dont
say stupid shit like that..."
Mika pushed his omega's hand off of him. He wasnt used to being touched
affectionately. Not after weeks upon weeks of associating touch with pain. He
began to feel too crowded in the confines of the vehicle. There were too many
scents in the air. Too many people. Too much movement. Too much...
A wave of nausea hit him. He felt the water he'd drank too quickly sloshing
around in his empty stomach. The pit of his gut roiled. Mika clamped a hand
over his mouth as he murmured. "I'm gonna be sick..."
"Guren pull over!" Yuu snapped.
"Is that a fucking joke?! We dont have time for this Yuu!"
Mika lurched, paling even more.
"Pull the fuck over, now!"
"God dammit-" Guren screeched to a halt on the side of the back country road.
Partially hidden under the shadows the treeline was casting. "Two minutes!"
Guren shouted as Yuu quickly opened the door and hopped out to allow Mika to
burst from the vehicle. He sprinted towards the treeline until he had some
relative privacy before stopping to brace himself against a tree trunk to
wretch and hack the contents of his stomach.
Coughing and gasping once he was finished, he took a few steadying breaths of
the crisp air. His legs felt wobbly from dizziness, but at least the nausea had
ebbed.
"Feeling better?" Yuu asked quietly from behind him.
Mika spun with a short burst of panic from having been snuck up on, but it
quickly faded upon seeing the omega's face. Brow's drawn in concern, but a
comforting smile played on the boy's lips. Mika stumbled several steps towards
him before he collapsed to his knees. He hid his face in his hands. Ashamed.
Ashamed of his weakness. His vulnerability. His lack of ability to focus his
thoughts for more than a minute. For putting Yuu and the others in danger.
Because of his own stupid actions, his omega was now caught up in this mess and
in danger from foolishly wanting to rescue him. 'If only I had stayed with him
that day...'
"Mika?" Yuu whispered as he crouched in front of him.
It was only then that Mika realized he was crying again. And he hated himself
more for it. Hated his own useless tears. "Dont look at me Yuu-chan..." Mika's
voice broke. "I don't want you to see me like this..."
"You're saying stupid things again Mika." Yuu said gently.
When Mika peeked up at him, the boy was holding out a small bottle of mouthwash
and another water for him. The look on his omega's face was so soft and full of
compassion that it made Mika's gut twist with renewed anguish. 'I dont deserve
to have an omega like him...'
But Mika tentatively took the items from Yuu. Swishing the minty liquid in his
mouth until the taste of bile was diminished and then spit it off to the side.
Then took several, more slowly this time, sips of water and wiped his mouth. He
sniffed a couple of times before meeting Yuu's eyes again. So bright and
expressive, even in the dark of the night. Mika reached out a trembling hand to
lightly brush Yuu's cheek. "You're really here..." It wasnt a question, more a
moment of clarity. And Yuu understood as he pressed his cheek into Mika's
caress.
He wanted to touch Mika back in turn, but he seemed so against it. So instead
he remained still under Mika's teary gaze. Allowing the alpha the moment to get
his thoughts in order.
"I'm so sorry Yuu-chan..." Mika dropped his hand, hanging his head shamefully.
Yuu hated that defeated look on his face. He could feel Mika's heartache as if
it was his own. And he felt the instinctive need to comfort and ease his
suffering. Without thinking he cupped Mika's face with both hands. Even though
the blond tried to shake his head free from his grasp, Yuu forced him to look
at him. Mika growled low. There was no real malice in the sound. More of a
warning that he was getting uncomfortable with the touching. But the alpha
didnt try to escape again. And Yuu felt a small thrill of victory from it.
'Your mate needs you. You're together again you coward! Let your mate touch
you!' Mika's instincts berated him. He sighed in defeat. He'd endure this for
him.
"I dont want to hear you say that you're sorry Mika! You didnt do anything
wrong. I know you were just trying to save our friends. They're like family to
you."
Mika could only stare at the ground. "You're the most important though, Yuu.
And because of my actions, I got myself captured. And you-you came to that
horrible place because of me..." He squeezed his eyes shut. "You promised me
Yuu-chan! You promised you wouldn't do anything reckless! That you wouldnt risk
yourself-"
"Pfft" Yuu scoffed. "You would have done the same for me and you know it.
Besides, you went after Shinoa. You're more reckless than I am!"
Mika flushed guiltily.
"But I'm not mad about it Mika. If we can't protect our family in this fucked
up world, then whats the point? I understand why you went searching for her. If
I knew where to look, I would have done the same." Yuu sighed. "Why didn't you
just tell me though? We didnt you just let me come with you to help?"
Mika snapped his blue eyes up at him. "Never Yuu-chan!" He said harshly. "If
you would have came with me, they would have gotten you too! I dont even want
to think about what they would have done to you...if-"
"OR," Yuu interrupted. "I could have kicked their asses into next week and
prevented you from getting captured! You and me combined? They might have
though twice before trying to pull that shit!"
Mika couldnt help the small smile from forming on his lips. Although Mika knew
that Yuu was strong, as evidenced by Kimizuki's beating, what the omega was
saying was foolish. He knew how to fight, yes. But he never wanted his omega to
have to. He could see Yuu's determination and stubbornness behind those green
eyes. He'd almost forgotten how different Yuu was compared to other omega's The
fact that Yuu wanted to fight along side him instead of running, made pride
swell in his chest for his mate. Although he wanted to reprimand Yuu for his
involvement in all of this, Mika had never been happier to see him. And he
found a new found need to protect and the strength to keep going from his
presence. 'To get Yuu out of here alive, you have to stay alive yourself.'
There was no backing down anymore. No giving up.
"The only thing keeping me going while I was in there, was the thought of you
alive on the outside." Mika whispered. "I'm happy you didnt come along, because
if they HAD gotten you...I probably wouldnt have lasted this long. They would
have killed you, Yuu-chan. And I would have eagerly followed..."
"Mika..." Those blue eyes were so weary, but they held the truth. And it scared
Yuu a little to know that Mika would be so accepting of death if he had gotten
himself killed. Yuu's chest felt tight at his admittance, and it made him want
to fight harder for their end game. For their survival. "I'm not going to die
Mika. That's one promise I CAN keep. Now lets go, we shouldn't keep Guren and
the others waiting."
Mika spared a cagey glance in their direction. "Those beta's...your
father...are you sure you can trust them?"
Yuu rolled his eyes. "Duh! They're the ones who got you out! Just trust them as
you would trust me."
"I dont even know what trust means at the moment Yuu." Mika hugged his arms
around himself. "Everything feels so off. I feel weird. I dont feel...normal.
Not anymore."
Yuu frowned at him. "When have we EVER been normal Mika?"
Mika raised a brow at that. Making Yuu smile brightly before the boy stood and
stretched his hand out to help Mika up. "Common. Let's go be not normal
together. As long as we have each other, everything will be alright."
Mika swallowed thickly. Yuu's optimism and hopeful disposition was foreign to
the alpha's muddled mindset. But Mika trusted his mate and could deny him
nothing. Would follow him into hell if Yuu asked him to with that smile. He
took his omega's hand. The solidarity of it a reminder that this was real, and
his Yuu-chan was really here. And it put his mind a little more at ease.
Yuu slung Mika's arm over his should to help him walk. His alpha tensed what he
wrapped an arm around his waist, but he didnt shy away. Making Yuu smile up at
him again. Feeling more hopeful that Mika would recover from the trauma he'd
endured. "Welcome back, Mika."

"Where the fuck are they..." Guren scanned the private air strip as parked near
the helicopter landing. This used to be a private airport for celebrities and
politicians, but it had gone bankrupt after JIDA had done a raid on it for
smuggling a group of omega's out of the country. It hadnt been used in years.
Their shouldn't have been any alerts from air traffic control.
'Dammit.' Guren checked the time. They were a couple of minutes early. 'Just
relax.' He told himself. 'They should be here any minute...'
Everyone filed out of the vehicle, Mika and Yuu practically glued to each
others sides. Only the still unconscious Shinoa remained in the safety of the
vehicle. They all looked at Guren expectantly. Even Shinya. They all felt it
too. That sense of foreboding hanging in the air. A cold breeze gusted over the
group. Like a bad omen. Mika drew his hood over his head, backing Yuu with him
away from the front of the vehicle and towards the protected center of the
group. The hairs of his neck standing on end. Nostrils flaring to scent the
air. Something wasnt right.
Guren pulled out his sidearm that was next to his sword. Shinya followed suit.
Brandishing his rifle which had a short bayonet that jutted out from the
barrel.
Yuu's eyes widened. "Guren..?"
"Get your weapons out." Guren bit out.
Rushing to the back of the SUV, they grabbed their gear. Everyone had been
given one weapon to wield in a sword fight and one pistol. Ammo was limited.
They needed to use their resources wisely. And if shit hit the fan and the
threat emptied their rounds on them and survived, they'd be able to take the
out with a quick jab or slash to the neck. All except for Yoichi. Though he was
the physically weakest in the group, if you didnt count Mika and Shinoa in
their current state, he was a surprisingly good sharpshooter. Shinya had
trained him well. They'd pick off the enemies from a safe distance together.
Covering their friends backs.
Mika looked at the group. He didnt have a weapon... "Get back in the car
Mikaela!" Shinya said. But Mika held his ground.
"I'm staying with Yuu-chan." Mika growled. "Give me a weapon!"
"Listen blondie!" Guren snapped. "We dont have time for your bullshit alpha
protectiveness. You're in no condition to fight. Get back in the car where its
sa-"
"I said i'm staying!-"
A bright, nearly blinding spotlight flashed on the group in a sudden burst.
Heavy boots echoed over asphalt. Guns and rifles cocked. The singing sound of
blades being unsheathed. All of the sounds happened in a matter of seconds,
before the group could even react.
A figure silhouetted over the bright spotlight laughed triumphantly. As if
Guren and his group of anti-beta's had just fallen for the funniest prank.
Which the this man's twisted way of thinking, they probably had.
"Kureto..."
"Good to see you again Guren." The general greeted casually. His blase attitude
rankled. The spotlight drifter up a few feet upward enough for the Guren squad
to see Kureto. Along with a whole platoon of his soldiers and guards.
Mika froze at the sight of his living nightmare. Pupils shrinking to almost non
existence. Breaths short and ragged. Yuu stepped to his side, raising his
pistol slightly but not aiming. Not wnting to risk the chance these men would
suddenly open fire on them because of him.
Kureto laughed again, pointedly at Yuu. "I knew you would lead me to something
great when I let you escape with my property, Guren. But this?!" He threw his
head back, laughing harder. "This is just too fucking good! You have an anti-
beta son!" He smiled menacingly at Yuu. "And by the looks of it, Shindo's your
alpha right? I can tell you all kinds of stories about the fun we've had
together..."
Mika snarled at the man, stepping in front of his omega protectively.
Kureto chuckled at the blond. "There's that fighting spirit I've missed."
"Leave them out of this Kureto!" Guren turned the man's attention back on
himself. "Your quarrel is with me!"
"HA!" Kureto scoffed. "Your life alone isn't worth the effort. No...you're
going to watch, as all of these anti-beta freaks you fought so hard to save,
dies. And maybe, after you've finished begging, i'll let you die." The man
raised his hand, poised to signal his men to shoot, then paused-
The choppy, whooshing sounds of rotors cutting through the air invaded the
silent tension. Above them, a Chinook paused mid-air as one person after
another, clad all in white uniforms, jumped from the large aircraft. Each
landing effortlessly with a thudding sound of boots meeting the asphalt. Swords
and guns raised towards Kureto and his soldiers, using their own bodies to
shield Mika, Yuu and the other anti-beta kids who were staring at them,
dumbstruck.
The height from which they had leaped would have broken any beta or omega's
legs upon impact. But from what they could tell from these people's scents,
these were all alpha's. Strong ones...
Before the Chinook flew off to circle around again, three more beings landed
directly in front of Guren and Shinya.
A tall thin man with lengthy silver hair flowing loosely down his back. Another
tall man with a massive, brawny build and two-toned red and black hair. And
lastly, a staggeringly small woman in comparison, with long pink hair tied high
atop her head. She was the only one clad all in skin tight black leather. Elite
alpha's. All three of them. The strongest of the strong. Considered royalty
among their peers.
To their surprise, nobody had opened fire yet. Everyone had stood their ground.
"Sorry we're late for the party!" The silver haired man stated lightly to Guren
and Shinya. He placed a hand on his hip and he flicked his hair from his
shoulder. "Pesky betas felt the need to interupt our little trip."
The pink haired woman whirled around when she caught a familiar scent. Her eyes
landing on Mika.
"K-Krul...?" Mika gaped.
Her brows drew together as she strode the short distance towards him. She
pulled back his hood. Scrutinizing the blond with her eyes red from alpha rage.
She brushed a lock of blond hair from his face, tucking it behind an ear. Her
scowl deepened when Mika averted his eyes submissively from the elite alpha who
had raised him.
"How dare they do this to you..." Krul whispered. She drew one of the two
swords that were crisscrossed over her back, gripping Mika's wrist to shove the
sword hilt into his palm. "Look at me Mikaela!" Krul said sternly.
He complied, eyes snapping up to meet hers.
"Do NOT feel shame for what they did to you! You fought to stay alive in there.
That's admirable. And now you're going to have to fight again if you want to
continue living!"
Mika gripped the sword in his shaking fist.
"I didnt raise you to be a coward." She continued. "Remember what I taught you.
You have someone to protect. Do not fail." With a short glance towards Yuu, she
whirled back around and started towards the front of her own platoon.
"Ferid. Crowley." The two other alpha elites followed, Shinya and Guren
trailing after as they made their way to the front line.
Kureto's own soldiers tightened their formation protectively around their
leader. Which made Ferid and Crowley smirk.
"Hmm...think they're afraid of us?" Crowley smiled towards Ferid. The other man
chuckled behind his hand.
"Oh how the mighty have fallen." Ferid snickered.
"Krul Tepes..." Kureto snarled.
She smiled viciously back at him. "The one and only! It's been years Kureto
Hiiragi. I must say, you look worse for wear. World domination taking it's
toll?"
Kureto smiled back with the same amount of vehemence, aiming his gun at her.
"Tch, and you're just as sickeningly lovely as always. Must be nice not aging
as quickly. You still come off as a sniveling brat. But that's what makes you
miscreations abominable, along with every other vile thing about you."
Krul yawned loudly. "Anybody ever tell you how boring your spewing propaganda
can get? Seriously Kureto. You're like a broken record."
"That's rich coming from a self righteous alpha whore."
"Ya ya." Krul shrugged. "Though this alpha whore sure does make you nervous!"
She smirked at the man. "I can smell it. You sure you'd be able to shoot me in
the head or heart with your hands shaking like that old man? You wont be able
to kill me otherwise."
"I only need enough shots to bring you down to my level."
"You mean to the level of the pebble beneath my shoe?" Krul scoffed.
"Unlikely."
With a glare, Kureto lowered his gun before drawing out his great-sword. "Lets
make this more interesting then shall we? A fair fight. No guns. Then we'll see
who's the stronger breed."
"That's too easy Kureto. Whats the catch?"
He smiled evilly at the young anti-beta group behind Krul's platoon. "The kids
have to fight first."
Her eyes blazed. "I'm not stupid Kureto. You've never played fair a day in your
life."
Without her even having to command them, her soldiers sprang into action.
Gunfire cracked. Bullets whizzed. Steel clanged. JIDA soldiers moved to protect
Kureto. Krul's soldiers moved to protect the kids, along with Shinya and Guren
who had began firing their own shots.
Chaos ensued.
 
~
 
The excitement of battle made adrenaline pump through Yuu's veins. He wanted to
fight. He wanted revenge for the pain that JIDA had caused everyone. He watched
in stupefaction as Krul practically danced circles around Kureto's men. Her
movements as she struck out with her small sword were effortless.
Mika had told him about Krul. But he'd never mentioned...this! She and her
people were their saviors. Avenging angels clad in white. Yuu wanted to join
their ranks.
He rushed towards the battle.
"Yuu no!"
"Stop idiot!"
"Yuu-chan!"
"Ohmygodohmygod!"
All except Yoichi ran after Yuu. The smaller omega hopped atop the SUV,
crouching to poise his rifle above his knee. Prepared to shoot anyone who tried
to come at his friends. Too much pressure rode on his shoulders. He took a
steadying breath. "I've got your backs guys..."
 
~
It was hard for Mika to concentrate on Yuu with so much chaos around them.
Mitsuba slashing with her axe, blocking gunshots with it and knocking men to
the ground from her blows. Kimizuki dodging bullets and blocking sword strikes
accurately with his dual wielded swords. Several soldiers dropped from Yoichi's
sharp shooting. If it wasn't for the panic in his mind, Mika would have been
impressed with how far his friends had come since they had started weapons
training years ago. But all he could focus on was trying to protect Yuu. He
hadnt trained as long. 'Dammit Yuu-chan!'. He cursed his omega's impulsive
behavior.
Then he caught sight of him again. His Yuu-chan was fierce. Swinging and
blocking with his Katana as he simultaneously shot further off targets with his
pistol. His fluidity and strength amazed him. His ferocity fueled Mika's own as
he cut through JIDA troops with Krul's sword. Mika had never killed. He was
sure none of his friends had either. It was easier for an alpha to handle
ending a life if they were protecting their loved ones. Their instincts usually
took over. But Yuu seemed to be in the same mindset as he was. Not giving much
thought to the lives he was ending. Like the bugs in his cell. When they would
bite him, he'd squish them with no real remorse. No afterthought. These JIDA
soldiers were nothing more than that. Bugs that needed to be squashed. And
squashed quickly. Eliminating the threat to his omega.
Though as they fought through the crowd, Mika and Yuu became further and
further separated from each other. "Yuu-chan!" Mika's ire grew as he fought
more feircley to get back to his omega's side. He wrist felt like they would
shatter with each sword he blocked. His bare feet slipping on blood and gravel
along the asphalt. But he barely noticed. He had to get to his mate. 'Yuu-
chan...Yuu-chan...where the hell was he?!'
"Yuu-chan!" His entire body shook with exertion as he burst through a clearing
from the clashing bodies in his way. His Omega was charging directly for
Kureto. Empty gun discarded, he raised his sword towards the man to swing a
killing blow. The scent of his fury was palpable. He had to stop him. Kureto
was too strong!
Yet before Mika could take another step, Kureto lowered his sword, and with
lightening speed, drew out his pistol, aimed it for Yuu's chest, and pulled the
trigger.
Mika jolted from the sound of the gunfire. Crumpling to his knees, the scene
playing over and over in his mind in slow motion, he watched Yuu's chest lurch
from the bullet's impact, face drawn in anguish as his limp body sprawled
backwards to the ground below him. Unmoving.
 
~
 
"No..." Mika gasped. Clutching at his hair and yanking at it until it burned
his scalp. "No, no...NO! YUU-CHAN!" He bellowed. Pain exploding in his chest
with every heartbeat. He clawed at it as he wretched and sobbed uncontrollably.
His fingernails tore at the fabric, wanting to rip out his own heart. His
throat felt tight like he was being strangled by a vice. Yuu lay lifeless
before Kureto. And the bastard had the audacity to start stalking closer to
Yuu's body.
Something in Mika snapped. An ancient and dormant instinct rose up inside of
him. Heat and strength burned through every fiber in his body and adrenaline
rippled through him. His teeth felt sharper in his mouth, his nails harder. A
red haze covered his vision as his pulse roared in his ears. Drowning out the
sounds of the voices calling his name. His sight focused into pinpoint
accuracy, everything around him seemed to move slower. The soldiers about to
strike at him in his peripheral vision. More of them moving to block Mika's
path to Kureto. Kureto...still getting closer to his omega...
"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!" His irises turned blood red with uncontrollable alpha
rage. He sprang to his feet, bringing the sword up to cut the man about to
strike him. Severing the man from naval to nose. Blood poured from the wound,
and Mika smiled at the sight, before he turned his attention back to Kureto.
'Cut the head off of a snake, and the body dies...' Their leader was the cause
of all of this. And Mika would be damned if he didnt get to be the one to take
him down. 'He's taken everything from me...' He chuckled in anticipation of the
impending kill.
Blood curdling screams rang throughout as Mika cut through Kureto's men. The
begging as he crushed one of their windpipes below his foot amused him. Several
bullets plugged into his shoulder from another man behind him. Mika barely
noticed. 'Fool.' With a yell, Mika lunged towards the shooter, slicing the
blade across his throat. Blood splattered over Mika's hair and face. Dripping
from the strands and from his chin. He groaned. His pupils dilated. Thoughts
blanking. Madness licked at his heels...
He inwardly shook himself. He had to focus. 'Eliminate the obstacles. Destroy
Kureto. Then destroy self.' He'd take his own life before he let these men take
him down. He charged forwards towards the General. Just a few yards away.
He'd warned Yuu...he'd warned him not to put himself in danger! Yet the omega
had stupidly charged into the battle to fight for the people he cared about.
For him. Mika ground his teeth. 'If only Yuu had listened...'
Two more soldiers cut him off, as if to sacrifice themselves to him. Mika
smirked as they raised their wavering rifles. He could smell their fear. He
knew how he must look to them right now. Mika crouched, anticipating their
actions. The larger of the two shot first, firing only three shots before he
realised the blade being shoved into his gut. Crimson bubbled on his lips and
he collapsed. Without missing a beat, he whirled on the other man, slicing
clean through his arm that was holding the gun before plunging the sword in his
chest. By the time the man's body hit the floor, Mika was already sprinting
towards Kureto.
Just a few feet from Yuu, Kureto turned to him. Eyes widening at the sight, he
reached for his pistol once more.
With a cry, Mika flung the sword like a dagger, singing through the air in a
metallic blur, the sword struck clean through Kureto shoulder. Causing the man
to cry out in agony. Rendering his shooting arm useless. Mika pounced on him.
Knocking the large man to the ground, Mika pinned his biceps down with his
knees as he straddled his chest. Mika gripped the sword still planted in
Kureto's shoulder and twisted the blade. Earning another scream from the man.
Mika's grin widened as he pulled the sword free. Then plunged it into Kureto's
other shoulder. Relishing in the sound of bone scraping metal, and he twisted
the blade slowly there as well.
"SHUT UP!" Mika yelled over his screams. When the man looked up at his menacing
form with wide eyes, Mika leaned in closer to whisper at him. "I'll like it
more if you struggle. You'll like it more if you dont." He raked the blade from
the mans shoulder, all the way to his elbow. Severing the artery. Kureto choked
back a cry. Then Mika poised the tip of the blade at the hallow of the man's
throat.
Kureto chuckled through gritted teeth. "You think you've won?" the General
sneered. "Thank again. JIDA isn't the only organization who hold the same
ideals. There are several other organizations throughout the world just like
us! Experimenting on filth like you, eradicating your kind until every last one
of you is gone. The legacy will continue long after I am dead! Do you really
think you stand a chance against them all?"
Mika looked down at him with a crazed expression. "Maybe not." He sneered. "But
we'll start with you. You'll never be able to lay your filthy hands on any of
my kind again. All your men will be slaughtered. JIDA will fall. And more
people will betray even the memory from you. Just like your entire family has
betrayed you." Mika twirled the blade against the man's throat. Drawing red
droplets. Growing impatient to kill him. "You will feel the defeat beyond your
grave. I hope you experience it every second of the eternity you spend in
hell."
Kureto smiled. "Then lets get this over with." He bit out.
Without hesitation, Mika angled the blade across the generals neck, "Die..."
methodically, he sliced through it to the spine. Blood sprayed from the mans
neck in a crimson arc. Painting Mika's face and hair further as he threw his
head back and laughed manically.
'We did it Yuu-chan...' Mika swiped the blood down his face and neck. Relishing
the moment. Ending that man's life caused endorphin's to run through his veins.
The pleasure of it undeniable. Making him feel high.
His crazed laughing was stopped by the feeling of a dart plunging into his
neck. He reached to pull it out, looking at it as his rage began to subside and
he collapsed to his side. "It's time to calm down now Mika. It's over..." Krul
said solemnly as she came into view.
Tears burst from his eyes from his sudden comedown, at the realization of what
he had just done. What had just happened. "Y-Yuu-chan!" He cried out in agony.
His vision blackened as he was met with the faces of his friends. All gaping at
him with fear and astonishment in their eyes. But also with a sense of wonder.
And right before the blackness took him completely, he heard a strained yet
familiar voice. The sweet sound and smell tugged at his heart. "Mika,
everything's alright..."

See the end of the chapter for more notes
Mika awoke with a start. Blue eyes snapping open in panic as he took in his
surroundings. He sat up. 'A hospital?'
 
HIs skin and hair smelled of soap and he was wearing nothing underneath a
hospital gown. A jolt of ire shot through him at the thought of somebody
stripping and washing his unconscious body. An IV was stuck into the vein at
the back of his wrist, and heart monitors dotted his chest. Mika blinked in
confusion, trying to remember what the hell had happened before he blacked out.
He remembered escaping. He remembered Kureto. He remembered Kureto aiming a gun
and Yuu and shooting him in the chest-
 
"Oh god..." He clutched his head, swallowing down the sickly feeling rising in
his throat. He recalled going savage after that. But wasn't sure what exactly
happened. Everything was a red haze in his memory after Yuu had been shot,
But Mika had killed Kureto somehow. And then he remembered hearing Yuu's voice
before he lost consciousness. "Had I imagined it?"Was Kureto really even dead?
He wished he could feel more satisfaction from killing that monster, but not at
the expense of his own mate...
He jerked his head towards the sound of the door opening. A young beta woman
with a think braid slung over her shoulder and large brown eyes entered.
Dressed all in white scrubs. A nurse.
 
Mika shot to his knees on the hospital bed, hunching over as if he was prepared
to launch himself at the young woman. Snarling with his teeth bared. Mika
didn't trust those beta's. Especially the official looking ones who resembled
the scientists and doctors who had removed his nails and flayed his skin during
his imprisonment.
 
The woman froze upon seeing Mika's menacing posture, and she bent at the hip.
Bowing submissively and keeping her gaze averted. Mika could smell her fear.
"Good."
 
"Mikaela Shindo...my name is Akane. I've been your nurse for the past three
days. I'm very glad to see that you're finally awake."
 
The blond stopped snarling to blink at her. Relaxing slightly at her timid and
non-threatening scent. "Three days...?" His voice came out dry and rough.
Akane straightened, but kept her gaze averted. "Yes sir. All of your vital
signs have been stabilized. Now that you're awake, you should be free to leave
after a few tests are run and you undergo a debriefing session with the
therapist.
Mika shook his head hard. Squeezing he eyes closed at the rattling in his
skull. "W-where are the others? Yuu-chan...Where's Yuu-chan?!" He was terrified
of what her answer might be, but he had to know. Mentally steeling himself for
the worst...
 
Akane smiled slightly. "Everybody's fine. Shinoa is in recovery. Yuuichiro was
released from the hospital yesterday."
 
Mika released a breath he hadn't known he'd been holding. Sagging with relief
so overwhelming that tears pricked his eyes. "I want to see him...I need to see
for myself that he's ok!"
 
Akane nodded. "After debriefing it might be alright for him to visit you. If
all goes well-"
 
"It mightbe? Why wouldn't it be alright for me to see my mate?!" He snapped, a
bit more harshly than he intended. But the thought of someone forcibly keeping
him separated from Yuu-chan made him want to lash out.
 
"Akane flinched at his tone. "Your mental state needs to be evaluated first,
sir...for your safety and for his. You've gone through a lot of trauma and just
came out of a rage induced coma. Situations have happened with similar patients
where they have harmed their friends and wasn't aware of it."
 
Mika wanted to growl at the woman again for even entertaining the idea that he
would harm Yuu. But he stifled it. Showing too muh aggression most likely
wouldn't help him in this case. "Fine..."
 
 
~
 
As much as Mika wanted to bitch slap the overly voluptuous blond alpha woman,
she was unfortunately the therapist in charge of debriefing him. He knew he had
to keep this constant anger that he had never had before in check, and comply
with her questioning if he even wanted a chance of seeing Yuu.
 
She had advised against mating for a while, considering what he had been
through. To which Mika thought to himself if he even had the capability to mate
anymore. The thought of engaging in anything sexual sent a shiver up his spine.
And not in a good way...
She'd also advised against not sleeping in the same room with anybody, and that
he had been assigned a private dorm where he would stay alone. Incase he went
into a sleep rage and unknowingly thrashed his surroundings. At least
temporarily. He'd been monitored on a daily basis until his condition improved.
This he didn't like. He didn't want to be constantly watched, and tried to
assure the therapist that it wasn't necessary.
The worst part about having an alpha as a therapist; alpha's could scent it if
you were lying. And she could sense Mika's quiet anger with every minute that
ticked by of her constant questioning and advice.
"Where's your anger on a scale from 1-10?"
"How do you feel about your current relationship with your omega?"
"Would you be willing to undergo touch therapy?"
"Would you be willing to continue with weekly sessions with me?"
"WHat do you think you will need to stay away from to avoid triggers?"
Mika had been in her office for nearly two hours. Was ready to get the hell
away from this woman.
 
Though, he was a lot more comfortable and confident now that he was cleaned in
dressed in an all black attire that Krul had clearly chosen for him. Her strong
scent lingered on the expensive material.
He vaguely wondered where she was. If she knew he was awake. Where she had
brought him and his friends. He was eager to get out of this hospital and roam
his new surroundings that he'd recently learned Krul had funded and
established. Apparently, all of this was her legacy. Her life's work. The
reason she had left Mika to live on his own once he presented. He could see
why. So far, everything was well organized and planned out. There were dorms
and housing and a park as well as a military base, all fortified behind guarded
walls on this small island off the mainland. Mika was humbled by the fact that
she had left her work in the hands of others, just to raise Mika for the amount
of time that she did. And eternally grateful that she had aided the others
in defeating, and escaping from JIDA.
 
His mood softened even as he grew more anxious to see the people he cared about
again. And it seemed his softening mood convinced Horn, his therapist, that he
could be allowed a visitor.
 
"Just wait here Mikaela." Horn instructed. "I'll go and get him."
 
Mika blinked at her. Suddenly filling with apprehension.  'Has Yuu-chan been
here waiting for me?'
She left the office. Leaving Mika to wipe his sweating palms on his jeans and
pace the room nervously. The last time he'd seen Yuu, he was a dirty, beaten
crazed animal. 'Did he witness me killing Kureto?' Even though the blond didn't
remember what happened in his rage state, he remembered there had been blood.
So. Much. Blood...
The door burst open, snapping Mika out of his contemplation when he saw Yuu
standing in the threshold. "Yuu-chan..." Mika breathed. He was ok...
 
 
~
 
"Mika!" Yuu cried, lunging for the blond to enclose his alpha in an embrace.
Yet Mika startled and sidestepped from him. Causing Yuu to grasp at empty air.
"Oi, Mika...whats wrong?" Yuu lowered his hands. Giving Mika a hurt look. 'Is
he not happy to see me?'
"S-sorry Yuu-chan!" The blond shook his head. "I-I didn't mean to do that..."
Mika flushed, lowering his own hands from his defensive stance.
 
Yuu bit his lip, looking at Mika with pleading eyes. "Can I...hug you?
Please?" 
When Mika gave him a single nod, Yuu slowly came up to him to warp his arms
around the blond's shoulders. He felt Mika stiffen against him, and then
awkwardly place his hands on Yuu's waist. Yuu pressed his nose to his alpha's
shoulder. Inhaling his scent. Mika hardly smelled like their mingled scent any
longer. And Yuu ached to have his alpha mark him one more and infuse both of
their bodies again with their bonded scent.
 
But Mika didn't even move. He didn't scent him in return. He just stood rigidly
against him, and it made Yuu release an embarrassingly needy whimper. He pulled
back to meet his blue eyes that were wide with astonishment,
 
"Yuu-chan..." Mika held him at arms length, inspecting him up and down. "How
the hell are you alive? I saw you get shot!" 
"Oh! Heh...yeah..." Yuu lifted his shirt to his neck, revealing a large green
and purple bruise the size of a dinner plate over his chest. "I was wearing a
bullet proof vest. Good thing huh? He hit me dead center, right in the ten
ring! Hurt like a bitch..." He trailed off at Mika's widening eyes as the blond
placed a hand over his mouth. Face growing pale white. He dropped the hem of
his shirt hastily, but Mika just continued staring at the same spot. "Neh,
Mika! It's ok!" He said cheerily. He could tell that the blond was horrified,
and likely blaming himself.
"Look, I'M the one who ran into battle and went after Kureto. I had to! He was
trying to escape! I knew he was going to shoot me in the chest, and that I
would be ok-"
"You what?!" Mika blanched. "Why would you go after him, knowing he would shoot
you? What if he decided to shoot you in the head? You'd be dead!"
"Guren told me he doesn't like to shoot alpha's or omega's in the head because
he likes to savor their true expressions as they die, or whatever. The man was
a freak..."
Mika knew all too well how much of a freak and a monster Kureto was..." That
doesn't mean you should chance it! How could you, Yuu-chan?! After I told you
what would happen if you died..." Mika released him, looming over Yuu
menacingly as his eyes flickered from red to blue.
"What else was I supposed to do? Let him get away? Then he would never stop
hunting us! I knew he would come over to likely finish me off, then I would
have had the chance to take him out! At least, that was what I planned on. I
wasn't expecting you to lose control on him. You were supposed to stay behind
in the car..."
"You had no right!" Mika snapped. Anger simmered below the surface.
"What? Whats that suppose to mean? I can make my own choices Mika!" Yuu knew
what he had done was dangerous. And if he had given it some though during the
heat f the battle, he likely wouldn't have been so reckless. He didn't mean to
upset Mika so much, but he felt like he could finally do something to save his
alpha and his friends, and acted upon it without a second thought.
They were nose to nose now, Yuu set his mouth in a hard line. His stubborn
green gaze locked with Mika's, unflinching. "Not if it risks your life Yuu."
The blond chided. "I went through hell to keep you safe. To make sure Kureto
never knew about you. I didn't ever want him anywhere nearyou, and you go and
put yourself in his sights anyway! I thought you had DIED Yuu!" He gripped the
omega's shoulders, the desperation in his voice giving Yuu pause. "Do you have
any idea-" Mika chocked on his words "how I felt at that moment? To see you die
before my eyes at the hands of that monster?"
Yuu watched as Mika sank to his knees, clutching handfuls of his blond hair. "I
don't know how much more I can take..."
The omega felt a pang. Mika was so wrecked by everything that had happened. 'An
I'm causing him more pain.' "Mika..." Yuu joined him on the floor, bending to
show a small amount of submission to the blond. His instincts berated him for
making his alpha angry and disappointed with him. "I'm sorry! I didn't mean to
hurt you! I just wanted to get revenge for you."
Mika still wouldn't look at him, keeping his fingers in his hair as he ground
his teeth. "I don't want you getting revenge for me! I want you safe. I
need you safe! How am I suppose to protect you if you wont let me?"
 
"But you don't need to protect me Mika. I'm not helpless and incompetent just
because I'm an omega-"
 
"It has nothing to do with that!" Mika interrupted. "I cant control my
instincts. Everything in me, tells me to keep you out of danger. But you just
keep putting yourself into it! Are you going to defy me at every turn for the
rest our lives?" 
Yuu hung his head in defeat. He knew he had been denying his own instincts and
defying Mika's wishes by running headlong into danger. But it was over now.
They were safe, and they were together again. Yuu really saw no reason to defy
his alpha anymore. At least not until another threat arose.
Yuu was willing to let go of some of his brazen stubbornness if Mika will let
go of this new, and frustrating issue with being touched. Especially by his
omega. They were bonded and Yuu needed his affections. Especially now.
 
Yoichi had gone into early heat the other day, and knew it meant that his own
was rapidly approaching. If he couldn't break Mika of this aversion to
affection, he wasn't sure what he would do once he went into heat...
Yuu nuzzled his face against Mika's neck affectionately. "I'm sorry Mika. Let's
start over." He kissed him there. "You and me." He ghosted his lips up Mika's
jawline, pulling at his wrists to untangle his hands from his hair before
cupping his face. "I wont do anything dangerous anymore. Ok?" Yuu moved to
straddle Mika's hips, needing to be closer. Needing to be held. But he felt the
blond stiffen again, his anxiety ratcheted up. "I've missed you..." Yuu
breathed over the alpha's mouth. "I need you so badly..." He slanted his lips
against Mika's. Not a kiss of passion, or lust, more of a silent plea. Willing
his mate to respond to him like he used to. The thought of Mika never wanted
him in that way again terrified Yuu, and caused him to instinctively cling to
him in desperation.
~
He felt Mika hesitantly part his lips on a breath, bringing his hands to rest
on his hips as Yuu wiggled closer on his lap. The omega's urgent little sounds
was pleasing to his ears, and his scent made Mika feel more relaxed. Slowly,
his body began to respond, and he opened his knees wider to spread Yuu's thighs
and bring his ass down to rest on his hardening length. The pleasure he got
from his omega was almost enough to make him forget...
Until Yuu grew more aggressive. His fingers clutched at Mika's back and
shoulders as the omega's kisses grew more rough and frantic, and dark images
flashed into Mika's mind.
'Kureta's mouth on me. His hands on me. His weight on me...'
With a strangled cry, he shoved Yuu off of him, forcefully. Causing the omega
to sprawl backwards on his ass.
He looked at Mika with bewilderment. "W-what just happened? Whats wrong?!"
Mika was gasping against the back of his hand, unable to look Yuu in the eyes.
"I-I cant..."
"But why?! What happened to make you this way Mika? I'm not going to injure you
by touching you! I'd never hurt you!"
"I know that Yuu...I-I just cant..."
Yuu's own ire grew. "If you know I wont hurt you, then why wont you let me
touch you?! I havnt seen you or got to touch you in so long! I've been wanting
you all this time...don't you want me too?!"
At Mika's silence, Yuu felt his throat tighten as pain gripped at his heart.
'Ouch Mika...' Yuu ground his teeth angrily to keep his tears from spilling.
"Why? Tell me why! Why are you like this now? You talk about going against
instincts, so where's the instincts that tell you that we need to be together
in that way? Why are you repulsed? Tell me!"
"I cant tell you!" Mika shouted. 'If I tell him the truth, he will be
disgusted. He will never look at me the same again...' Mika shook his head,
saying softly "I'm never going to tell you what happened in there, Yuu..."
"Then what can I do to help you Mika?" He started crawling closer to him.
"Please, tell me what I can do to make this better."
Mika just shook his head again, holding out a hand to stop Yuu from advancing
on him. Which just pissed Yuu off more, because he grabbed at Mika's arm to
pull him closer. Making the blond growl in response.
"Tell me what to do!"
Mika yanked his arm from Yuu's hands. "You can leave me alone!"
Yuu drew his head back, as if he'd just been slapped. Mika immediately
regretted his words. He inwardly shook himself, trying to calm his anger. He
wasn't used to feeling so mad so quickly. And it was making it hard for him to
control his words or his thoughts. Could hardly believe he had told his omega
to leave him. "Wait...Yuu! I didn't mean-"
"Forget it Mika." Yuu said flatly. His green eyes glittered with moisture. The
hurt expression on his face betraying his calm tone. "I'll give you your space.
I'm sorry for forcing something you don't want. I wont do it again."
"That's not-" But before Mika could finish he sentence, Yuu had already closed
the door behind him. Leaving Mika alone in the office once more. He stared
after him, dumbstruck. Hating himself for hurting his omega. For snapping at
him for basic omega needs. Thinking himself a hypocrite... 'Mika, what the fuck
are you doing?' Yuu was alive, when he thought he had died. And here he was
pushing him away, afraid of being intimate with the person he loved most. He
never realized until now how much Kureto had damaged his mind. His body had
healed. But what about the rest? What would it take to be normal again?
"I have to fix this..."

Chapter Notes
     So...I was going to post the main chapter, but this popped into my
     head and kind of wrote itself.
     I'll get to the chapter I originally had written down for my next
     update :)
     Next chapter is going to take me a little while since it's a lot
     longer. So here is this for now!
     Btw, thank you for all of your comments last chapter!!! I love you
     guys! I will try to respond to them when I can! But I used my spare
     time I had today to type this up instead of replying to comments.
     Even though the comments are what gave this chapter life <3
     This one is still pretty short. But it felt necessary to me.
     Hope you like!
     xoxo
     P.S. Holy shit Episode 24 today?! Anybody else feel me on that?!!!!
See the end of the chapter for more notes
Yuu went back to the hospital the next day to apologize. He'd tossed and turned
all night, despairing over his selfish behavior and how he had stormed out of
the therapists office like a spoiled brat. 'Stupid, stupid, stupid...' His
hormones had literally been off the charts around the blond, and he was still
feeling the after affects from having rubbed his body against his.
Mika had responded, if only momentarily. Then something happened. Something Yuu
did must have triggered Mika to go into defense mode. 'What the hell had
happened to him?' He had talked to Guren and Shinoa, but they wouldn't reveal
anything other than the fact that Mika had been badly tortured and beaten, and
that Kureto had a singular interest in him. But wouldn't explain what that
meant. That if Mika felt the need to tell him one day, he would. That it wasn't
their place to say.
Yuu wracked his brain. Singular interests? What did that mean exactly? He
cursed his ignorance in things like this. What the fuck had Kureto done to his
Mika? There was a niggling thought in the back of his mind, but the fear of the
worst made his subconscious tamp down the thought.
'Kureto had died too quickly.' Yuu wished Mika would have made him suffer more
in his final moments. That man deserved the worst for turning his beautiful
alpha into the person he had become...
But when Yuu went to the hospital to see if Mika was there, he had already
checked out. Krul had assigned him an apartment near to Royals and Military
section, but they didn't know his address. 'Well fuck...'
The cool winter air did little the stifle the warmth emanating from his skin as
he quickly made his way to the over side of Kruls compound. Guren was housed in
the Military sect so Yuu was aloud access to that area. But if Mika was being
housed where the Royals lived, he'd have a harder time getting into that
particular building.
The compound used to be a large, private university that Krul had bought from
the proprietors and fortified it to turn it into a base for their kind. Most of
the workers were beta's who had been fighting against JIDA, and therefor held
no prejudice and weren't able to be manipulated by an alpha's dominance or an
omega's allure. Which proved difficult for Yuu when he tried to get past the
guards in the lobby of the Royals apartments. The didn't exactly sympathize
with Yuu's motives and wouldn't tell him if Mika indeed lived there. No matter
how much he begged.
"It's alright." A silky voice said from behind the beta guard. "I know this
boy, he's quite a treasure to Krul's son apparently." The beta turned toward
the voice, revealing to Yuu the tall man with long silver hair who was with
Krul at the airport.
"Lord Ferid." The beta bowed. "My apology, I wasn't aware of his connection to
Krul."
Ferid waved that away. "I will escort him to the main wing myself." He said
with a sly smile.
"Yes sire."
"Come with me, omega." Ferid turned towards the large wooden double doors. Yuu
quirked a brow before he hesitatingly followed.
When they were in the elevator together leading up to the top floor, Yuu
shuffled uncomfortably under the tall alpha's amused scrutiny. The omega
cleared his throat. "Uh...thanks. For...ya know, helping me out back there..."
Ferid smiled sunnily. "Of course my dear boy. I couldn't just let a desperate
omega fight with our guards all day after all. What brings you here so urgently
anyway?"
The elevator opened and they stepped out. Making their way through an ornate
hallway. "I just...needed to see Mika. To apologize to him..."
"Oh?" Ferid's tone held his amusement. "Lovers quarrel?"
Yuu blushed. "Well...Its just...after what happened with JIDA, Mika was being
different. And...I just got angry...and...yeah. I don't really know what else
to do. It's my own fault. I was being selfish-"
Ferid turned to him abruptly, causing Yuu to run into his chest. Ferid caught
him around the waist when he stumbled backwards. "Oh Yuuichiro my dear..."
Ferid smirked down at him. "Mika has gone through so much. Who knows if he will
ever recover?" He smoothed the back of his fingers down Yuu's cheek. Causing
the omega's eyes to widen as he blushed madly.
"You're about to go into heat, are you not? You need an alpha who can actually
care for you, my sweet omega. And it appears that Mika isn't very capable of
that anymore. I'd love to have you as my own..." Ferid pulled him in closer as
he bent to rub his lips over the scent gland at Yuu's neck. Inhaling deeply, he
rubbed his tongue on the spot, placing his alpha scent on him.
"W-what are you doing?!" He shoved away from Ferid. "You cant do that! I don't
belong to you! Mika's my alpha!"
"And what are you going to do when Mika rejects you again?"
Yuu blanched. Wondering how the hell Ferid could have known about that. Then
again, he helped run this compound. He was probably aware of everything. "I'm
not going to go with another alpha just because Mika has changed. I'm not going
to give up on him either. So I respectfully decline your offer. Whatever
happens between Mika and I is our business alone. Please don't ever scent mark
me again."
Ferid smirked again, flipping his long silver hair before placing his hand on
his hip. "You sure are a stubborn one for an omega. I must say, it just makes
you much more appealing."
Yuu scowled at him.
"Well my offer still stands, if you ever get tired of going through heat alone.
Good luck with Mika!" And with that Ferid left. His condescending laughter rang
through the halls.
Yuu stood in the same spot in the hall for long moments. Practically shaking
from the sudden surge of heat and aching sensitivity running through him.
'Stupid fucking alpha bastard!' Ferid's touch had felt repulsive to Yuu, but
his scent marking had made his body react against his will.
'Shit...' He couldn't go to Mika with Ferid's scent on him! He cursed Ferid to
hell as he ran back toward the elevator. He had to wash his scent off. He had
to get himself under control. If he went to Mika while his heat symptoms were
running wild, he was only asking for a repeat of what happened yesterday. He
wanted to talk to Mika. Not fucking jump him again. And Mika might think he had
betrayed him upon smelling another alpha on him. 'Shit shit shit!'
Even the other alpha's and omega's he passed in the lobby were looking at him
quizzically. Yuu wanted to crawl into a hole and hide from their scrutiny.
~
Shinoa came by later that day to talk to Yuu. They would visit each other at
least once a day. But when Yuu hadn't come to her dorm, she took it upon
herself to check in on him.
Only to find the omega nesting in his room. Almost frantically. His face was
flushed and sweat dotted his forehead.
"Yuu?"
He stopped and turned to her with a startle. "Uh, hey. Shinoa..." He looked
around his room. Wondering how this all looked to her. "I was just..."
Shinoa snorted. "I know what you're doing Yuu. I've been around Yoichi long
enough." She sauntered around the room. Inspecting the mess of pillows and
blankets littering the mattress. She dared not touch it though. Disturbing an
omega's nest would only send them into a fit.
"How are you today Shinoa? I'm sorry I didn't come over yet. I ran into
some...issues, today..."
"I felt like taking a walk anyway!" She said with a cheery smile. "What kind of
issues were you having?"
Yuu studied his bare feet. Contemplating on whether or not he should tell
Shinoa what happened. He had to talk to somebody. And Shinoa wouldn't be biased
when it came between him and Mika. Would she? "Well, I tried to go and see Mika
today. The hospital told me he was placed with the Royal housing."
Shinoa's eyes widened as she took a seat on Yuu's lounge chair. "Krul sure does
love to spoil that guy." Shinoa quirked a brow. "Not that he doesn't deserve
it. But common! Who's dick do I have to suck to get an awesome apartment too?"
Yuu rolled his eyes at her. But he was honestly happy to see her acting so
casual and more like her own self, considering all she had been through.
"Anyways! They wouldn't let me past the lobby at first. But then this Alpha
named Ferid comes in and makes them let me pass. Offered to take me to Mika's
place. But..."
Shinoa leaned forward in the chair. Her face was set in a hard expression. Like
she was angry. "But what?"
"Well...he kind of...put his scent on me...Then he offered to be my alpha and
called Mika incapable."
A muscle ticked in the girl's jaw. "Not fucking cool..."
"Ya I know..." Yuu ran a hand through his messy hair. "And then I had to rush
back here without even getting to see Mika! To wash off Ferid's scent, and
then, I guess I got kind of sidetracked..." He looked around his room at the
mess again.
"Ya know, you really need to go to the heat center Yuu. They have regulations
here to uphold. Besides, these dorms here aren't scent sealed. Every alpha in
this building will be sniffing outside your door and trying to get with you."
Yuu stifled a disgusted shiver.
"Exactly. The heat center is secured. And you can even register Mika and
yourself for a couples room. Yoichi and Shiho checked it out. It's supposed to
be pretty nice. And very private. Soundproof walls and all that." She said with
a wink.
But Yuu just sank to his bed. Expression downtrodden.
"I mean...unless you're into public displays-"
"It's not that." Yuu said quietly. "Mika...he wont be coming with me. It's too
late now to try to talk to him. And when I went to see him yesterday, I kind of
jumped him and he freaked out. I don't know why. But he doesn't see me in that
way anymore."
Shinoa just stared out the window with her brows drawn.
"I know that you know the reason behind it. Why cant you just tell me?"
"Its not my place Yuu." she said without looking at him. "I doubt Mika will
ever tell you everything that happened. But you have to trust him. If you
really love him the way you've said that you do, then you need to learn
patience. Rome wasn't built in a day."
Yuu sighed. "I know. I know...Will you, do me a favor? Just tell him that I'm
sorry when you see him? I don't know how long I'll have to be in there without
Mika-um-with me."
Shinoa nodded. "Sure. Do you want me to walk you over there? I know that the
last thing you need is another creeper like Ferid dancing around you."
"Tch. I'll be fine. If he hadn't caught me so off guard, I would have punched
him in the damn face!"
Shinoa laughed. "Ya, because punching a Royal will surely win brownie points
with Mika's adoptive mother. Who's the fucking Queen here, if you haven't
noticed!"
"Yeah, whatever..." You rose to start packing things into a backpack.
"So...are you going to register Mika too?" Shinoa wondered.
"...No." Yuu said hesitantly. "He's not ready and I shouldn't expect him to be.
I need to leave him be and not expect him to come for me." Yuu sighed again.
"It would probably hurt too much too if I got us a room and he never showed."
Shinoa winced at his statement.
"Heh, talk about embarrassing right?" He plastered on a fake smile.
"Yuu..."
He placed a hand on her shoulder. Silencing her. "Thanks Shinoa. And I'm glad
to see you're doing better. Therapy with Mitsuba must be going well?"
She only nodded in response.
"Alright, well...I should get going. While I still have to use of my legs. I'll
see you in a few days ok?"
She followed him out the door and watched him lock it, before he strode down
the hallway towards the exit. Shinoa started for the other direction toward
Mitsuba's place. "Good luck Yuu-san." She called over her shoulder. Looking
back in time to catch his sad smile before he turned towards the exit again.
As Yuu left the safety of his dorm building, he began to feel that twisting
knot of anxiety settling in the pit of his stomach. But no matter how much he
didn't want to have to go through this alone, he'd deal with it and get back to
Mika as fast as he could. And then they would work together to get Mika better.
Yuu was determined to be a good omega and help his alpha heal the brokenness
caused by JIDA. To live a happy life together no matter what it took.
'Everything will be ok, as long as we have each other!'
Yuu was happy to have Mika back. He was optimistic...
So why were his eyes blurring from unshed tears?

His heat couldn't have come at a worse time. He was still bristling over Mika's
rejection and wished he had another opportunity to speak with him. On top of
that, that alpha Ferid had overstepped his boundaries.
'You need an alpha that can care for you my sweet omega. And it seems as if
Mika isn't very capable of that anymore. I'd love to have you as my own.'
That alpha's words still rang in his ears. "The nerve of that guy!" Just
because he was a Royal, an elite, didn't give him the right to try and claim
another alpha's mate! Where was the unity?
Yuu had scrubbed his skin raw to rid himself of the man's scent marking. And
even after that, some of it still lingered. 'Fucking asshole!' Yuu didn't want
anyone else. He would spend his heat cycle with his mate, or he would spend it
alone.
Which led him now to the Omega Heat Clinic. Bonded pairs could come here as
well since it was a safe and secure place, and they could rut freely without
worrying about waking the neighbors. But mostly, it was the unbonded omegas
that came here to escape from unwanted alpha advances and the clinic provided
everything an omega would need to get through their heat safely. It was all
very proprietary. No alpha's were aloud in unless an omega registered them.
Which made Yuu feel safer, incase Ferid came sniffing around.
Yuu had to admit, he was more than just a little scared. He recalled how
uncomfortable and painful his last heat had been, at least before Mika had
mated with him. But Yoichi told him that since he was bonded, his heat would be
even stronger. His body would cry out for it's alpha to ease him and the
effects would grow more intense every hour he went unmated. Until it was over.
'Well fuck!' If he wasn't fucking scared before...
And now that Yuu was more educated about his biology, he had to wonder if all
omega's were as afraid of their heats as he was. Maybe not the omegas that had
a willing partner. But Mika didn't want him in the way. And it was fine!
Really! Yuu wasn't as petty as to stop loving somebody over something like sex.
Yuu would get through his heat, and he wouldn't begrudge the situation. Not at
all!
No...If he had to be honest, Mika's rejection had hurt beyond belief. It was
breaking his heart. Yuu had wasted away without him during the months of Mika's
imprisonment. And now that they were finally together, Yuu wanted to be as
close as possible. In all ways. Maybe it was the omega in him that was clinging
and flailing so dramatically, but he couldn't help but want his Mika back. The
aversion to touching, Yuu could understand. He himself hadn't liked being
touched for years since he knew what it was like to be beaten and hit a lot.
Yuu was also put off by the prospect of sex before he met Mika. But what had
Mika gone through to develop that change within himself? He was always so
affectionate before. Surely he hadn't been brainwashed into thinking sex was
repulsive in such a short amount of time...
Blinking away the moisture gathering over his eyes, Yuu entered the clinic. And
even though it was early winter, the building didn't have the heat cranked like
all of the others did. 'Thank god!' It was comfortably cool inside against his
flushed skin.
Right inside the door, there was a window with a beta woman sitting at a desk
behind thick safety glass. She smiled warmly upon seeing Yuu enter, noticing
how nervous he was.
"Hello, how may I help you?" She greeted.
Yuu stepped up to the window, leaning forward to talk into the speakthru
intercom. "Uh...yeah. So...I've never been here before, but...um..." Yuu
scratched the back of his head. Not really knowing how to approach this.
But she nodded in understanding. Likely taking pity on him for being so
embarrassed. She turned to type away at her computer before asking him, "Your
name and age please?"
"Yuuichiro Hyakuya. I'm 17."
After she entered in the information, she opened a small slot at the bottom of
the window. "I'll just need a small blood sample for our records, if that's
alright?"
Yuu placed his hand into the opening. Allowing the woman to prick his finger
and dab the small droplet of blood onto a test strip, then she inserted the
strip into a device that was connected to the computer. After a minute of
reading whatever it was on the computer that his blood had revealed, she looked
back at him with a smile. "So you're a bonded omega?"
"Oh, um...yeah."
"Alright, great! What is your alpha's name so we can put him on the registry
for your room?"
Yuu stared down at his shoes. Suddenly feeling a surge of shame arise within
him. "My alpha, he-he wont be coming."
The woman's brows drew together slightly in confusion, but schooled her
features immediately after. "I'm very sorry for having to ask, but we need the
information for our records. Is your alpha deceased or in captivity?"
Yuu didn't look back at her. Just continued staring at the ground, wishing he
didn't feel so ashamed in front of this beta. "No..." Yuu said softly. "He's
here at the compound. He just...wont be coming."
She looked at him quizzically, then turned back to her computer to rapidly tap
away at the keyboard. Yuu sighed in exasperation.
"Alright Mr. Hyakuya, I'll place you in a single room in the alpha restricted
area. You wont be disturbed until your heat ends. How long do your heat cycles
normally lasts when you're not mating?"
Yuu pinched the bridge of his nose. He knew they needed this information, but
it was all just so uncomfortably personal. Yuu wasn't used to being so open
about matters such as these. He felt uncomfortable even talking to Yoichi about
it. But he supposed these people dealt with omegas every day. 'Just out with
it!'
"This is only my second heat. I was mated and bonded during my first, which
lasted only two days. So yeah...I don't know how long it's supposed to last
otherwise."
She blinked at him before turning back to the monitor. 'Was his case really
that rare?!' He wasn't appreciating her reactions. She was likely wondering why
the hell his alpha would bond with him during his first heat then not bother to
come for him during his second. Yuu crossed his arms over his chest. Posturing
defensively. 'It's none of their damn business what goes on between Mika and
I!'
She retrieved a key and stood. Pressing a button to buzz Yuu into the door at
his left. Yuu entered it, only to be met with another door directly in front of
him. Trapping him inside the small space. Then he heard another buzzing sound,
and the second door opened to where the beta woman was waiting for him. "Follow
me please." She gestured. Keeping her cheery demeanor. Yuu felt a bit safer
about being here from the precautions and security measures they took. At least
he didn't have to worry about another alpha trying to mate with him. He'd have
to thank Shinoa later for recommending he come here. 'But what if Mika comes
by?' He shook that thought away. There was no point in getting his hopes up,
just to have them crushed.
He kept up with her brisk pace as the beta led Yuu through the halls of the
clinic. The scent of omega heat grew thicker and thicker as they approached the
rooms. So much so, that it started to become overwhelming. Making Yuu hesitate.
The humming fan above did little to diminish the scent. Distress, anguish,
pain. All of it mingled in the air with the heat scent, and it caused the hairs
on the back of his neck to stand on end. Suddenly growing very afraid for his
fate over the next however many days...
"Mr. Hyakuya?" Yuu didn't notice until she called out to him that he had frozen
in place. Clamping a hand around his nose and mouth to stifle the petrifying
scent. She placed a gentle hand on his trembling shoulder. "Mr. Hyakuya,
everything will be alright." She said in a soothing tone. "There's no scents in
your room, so let's get you there as fast as possible so you can relax. Ok?"
She hurried Yuu along until they stopped in front of a door, where she quickly
swiped the keycard and the door slid open with a loud woosh. The blast of air
keeping the scent from the hallway out as they both stepped inside. Yuu gasped
in breaths. Relieved that the room didn't have any of the distressed omega
scents inside. The room was small and cozy, and smelled like some mixture of
honey and jasmine that Yuu found soothing. It came with a small kitchenette and
a full bathroom and was decorating in pale yellows and blues. And the air was
cool and comfortable. There were stacks of futons in the corner under a
reinforced window where he can make his bed and turn the small room into a
nesting area if he so desired. Yuu wasn't an expert at nesting like Yoichi was.
But without his alpha around, he felt the strong urge to create one to comfort
himself. Yuu supposed that maybe if he remained locked in here, it wouldn't be
so scary. He set his backpack full of clothes down on the short table.
'You just went through a fucking war you idiot! You can handle this!' He
berated himself for his weakness. Though if he were honest he'd take the heat
of battle over the heat cycles any day if it meant he had to do this alone
every three fucking months.
"Everything alright with the room?" the beta asked.
Yuu nodded noncommittally.
"The intercom there on the table will allow you to contact our beta staff on
standby if there's an emergency, or if you need anything." She pointed out.
"Otherwise, the door locks from the inside. So nobody can get in without your
permission. Though for your own safety, you wont be able to leave the building
until your heat ends." She said the last part pointedly. As if Yuu would be
able to even attempt running away. He nodded slowly in acknowledgment.
She then moved to a large cabinet. "Extra bedding and anything you may need for
nesting is in here. Along with standard suppressants if you don't have your own
and brand new heat aids still in the packaging."
'What the hell is a heat aid?' Yuu wondered.
"The fridge is fully stocked as well. But if you crave another kind of food, we
can accommodate you. Feel free to use whatever you like."
This place was like a hotel. "Um...ok. Thank you."
With a smile, she made her way to the door to leave. "Alert the staff via
intercom once your heat ends and they will help escort you home. Do you have
any questions?"
"Oh, uh, yeah." He turned to her. "D-do you know how long a heat cycle lasts?
You know...unmated?"
"Well..." She pondered. "It can last between 3-5 days normally. Worst case
scenario, it could last 7. But after the 5th day, the omega's are usually
hospitalized for the sake of their health, to monitor their body temperatures
and hormones so they don't reach a critical state."
Yuu paled. 'Hospitalized?!' "Seriously?! What happens when an omega becomes
critical?!"
"Don't worry, that rarely happens. And we will do anything possible to prevent
that from happening. We will even suggest mating with an unbonded alpha to
prevent that. But of course, that is completely up to the omega. We will take
very good care of you here Mr. Hyakuya. Don't worry yourself too much. Stress
will only prolong the heat."
Yuu prayed his would be over as fast as possible.
"If you're still here by the 4th day, we will check up on you, to make sure
your vitals are normal. Alright? You're in good hands here."
Yuu took a deep breath. "Ok, sure. Thanks."
She bowed slightly as a farewell. Then pressed the button to unlock and open
the door, then she left. The sound of the door sliding shut with a loud click
rang in his ears with a sound of finality, that filled Yuu with a sense of
foreboding.

Mika sat bundled in his thick jacket and scarf on a bench overlooking the snow
covered park. Watching as mates and their offspring built snowmen. Groups of
friends engaging in snowball fights. Others pushing one another on sleds down
the small hill.
Mika had decided to try to make the effort today to get out of his room. To
stop being a 'hermit', as Krul called him. Yet this cheery scene had only made
Mika feel more depressed. He still felt awful about his last encounter with
Yuu. Hated himself for the way he'd become. He didn't WANT to be this way
anymore. He didn't wan to hurt his omega. Yet it seemed like no matter what he
did, he would end up hurting him anyway. He might hurt him if he let him in and
revealed everything to him, but he was hurting him by keeping himself distanced
as well.
It had been five days since their fight, and Mika hadn't heard from or seen him
since. He'd hoped he would see Yuu at this park on a nice sunny day like this.
He wanted the chance to talk to him again. To try and explain things to him. He
wasn't ready to reveal everything about what had happened, but he was willing
to try and talk about some of it. Yuu would understand, wouldn't he? If it
helped ease Yuu's mind, Mika would do anything for him. He didn't want his
omega thinking that he didn't want him. And Mika hadn't meant to push him away
like that. He had to make it up to him somehow.
But when Mika had gone to the dorms the other day that Yuu was supposed to be
living in, he wasn't there. And the receptionist for the dorm building hadn't
seen him in a couple of days either. Even their friends had said that they
hadn't seen him! Though their unconcerned attitudes and confidence that he was
alright, made Mika suspect that they actually knew where he was and they
weren't telling him. But why?! Was Yuu really that angry, and told the group to
keep Mika away from him? His gut twisted at the thought.
As if on cue, he spotted Yoichi and Shiho strolling towards him. The omega
waving and smiling sunnily. "Oi Mika! Good to see you out and about! How's it
going?"
Mika smiled softly at the boy and stood to greet them. "Hey Yoichi. Shiho." He
jerked his chin towards the other alpha as he shoved his freezing hands into
his pockets.
"What brings you to the park today?" Yoichi asked. "You wanna build a snowman?"
Mika snorted, "No. I was actually hoping Yuu would be here..."
"Ooh...I see!" Yoichi smiled. Clearly ignoring the question behind the blond's
statement.
Mika sighed. "You guys still haven't seen him?"
The couple shook their heads in unison. "I'm sure he's fine." Shiho stated
firmly. "He'll talk to you when he's ready. You shouldn't worry."
Even though the other alpha was right, it still irritated the blond. Mika took
a deep breath to calm himself, then froze. A strange scent registered in his
mind. Yoichi must have recently come out of his heat. The scent of their
copulating still lingered on them. Couldn't have been more than three days ago.
But there was something very different about the omega's scent that was never
there before.
"Yoichi?" Mika asked. "Are you...not suppressing anymore?"
The omega blushed, averting his eyes to the ground as he toed at a chunk of
snow. Mika snapped his gaze back and fourth between him and Shiho, who's lips
slightly quirked up at the corners.
"Um, yeah." Yoichi finally answered. "We...kind of decided that, since we have
the freedom and all, that we shouldn't use the suppressants anymore. And just
let whatever happens happen."
Mika blinked in astonishment. Flaring his nostrils to take in more of the
omega's changed pheromones. He smelled almost...softer? More gentle, if that
was even possible. And it soothed the aggressive instincts within the blond,
replacing it with the need to protect the small omega. The sudden nurturing
instinct for his friend felt so odd and foreign to Mika. But it cemented his
initial suspicion.
"Yoichi, you're pregnant?!" Mika gasped. Honestly surprised that they had even
tried.
Yoichi smiled that smile that made his eyes squint shut as he scratched at his
cheek with a finger nervously. "Heh, well, we're actually headed to the doctors
right now to find out." The deep pink blush never left his cheeks as he looked
up at Shiho fondly. "Although...considering how the other alpha's have been
sniffing at me and reacting towards me, I think it's safe to say I am..."
Shiho postured pridefully. Clearly pleased with himself for impregnating his
omega on the first try without suppressants. Though, Yoichi had always been
very fertile to begin with. But the thought of conceiving had always terrified
the boy. Yet here at Krul's free and open society, they could live how they
wanted without fear of being found out. And apparently what they wanted was to
start a family....
Mika must have spaced out for long moments, because he realized Yoichi was
waving a hand in front of the blond's face. "Mika?" Yoichi prompted.
Mika shook himself. "S-sorry...Yoichi."
The omega suddenly looked troubled. "No, I apologize. I didn't mean to make you
uncomfortable...considering how you and Yuui-"
No! No..." Mika cut him off, then plastered on the best smile he could manage.
"Its great news! Really. I-I'm happy for you, for both of you."
"Thank you Mika." Yoichi smiled shyly.
"Well, we should get going before we're late." Shiho placed a hand on the small
of his omega's back, urging him along. Mika could feel the trepidation coming
from him. The protectiveness. His pregnant omega had been around another alpha
long enough. Mika understood.
"Bye Mika! I'll let you know how it goes!"
"Take care of yourself, Yoichi." Mika waved after the pair and watched as the
two grew smaller in the distance. Smiling at each other. Touching. Holding
hands. Eyes alight with excitement...
Mika felt a pang in his chest. He sunk back onto the bench, dropping his head
in his hands. Breathing deeply through his nose as he tried to gather his
thoughts. The blond seethed with irrational jealousy. Not only at the news of
Yoichi's pregnancy, but at how happy the two seemed. At their intimacy and
ability to move on and live happily. Like how Mika and Yuu used to be.
He clutched his head harder. 'Why can't I be right for him?!' Yuu loved him. He
knew this. Had risked his life to help save him, and take Kureto down. And
honestly if it wasn't for Yuu, Mika might not have gotten the chance to kill
him. Kureto might have truly gotten away. And instead of commending his omega
for his bravery, he'd scolded him. Yuu was so innocent and kind, and had come
to Mika to try to pull him from the proverbial pit of vipers that had become
Mika's dark thoughts. And Mika was pushing him away, instead of allowing
himself to indulge in his mate's company.
He could be having what Shiho and Yoichi now had. Friends, a family of his own,
opportunity, contentment. Instead, he was isolating himself. Was
unintentionally dragging others down while they were trying to move forward.
And Mika felt like he was being left behind. Even Yuu had disappeared to do
whatever it was he felt like he needed to do to live his life. Without Mika.
Maybe Yuu felt like Mika was dragging him down as well. And the thought arose
that his omega might actually leave him...
He scented her before she sat down next to him. Mika halted his despairing and
straightened to greet her. "Hey Shinoa..." he breathed. Keeping his eyes
averted. Shinoa was the only one who knew what had happened. The only one who
had gone through the horrors of being a prisoner of JIDA with him. And he was
afraid that if he looked at her at the moment, he would completely break down.
"You're such a fucking ray of sunshine!" She sarcastically stated. "Seriously
Mika, tone it down! It's annoying."
Mika scoffed annoyedly, but smiled at her. Resting his elbows on his knees.
"Treatments going well I take it?"
She just shrugged in response. Shinoa had been undergoing therapy and
rehabilitation for part of the same problems Mika was having; associating
touching with pain or torture. To Mika's surprise, Mitsuba had volunteered to
be her partner during her treatments and had tended to Shinoa with a patience
he didn't even know Mitsuba even possessed. It seemed to be working so far.
Mitsuba and Shinoa had always been close friends, but ever since the touch
therapy had started, it became apparent that their relationship had taken a
different turn. They both always looked so happy around each other. 'Even
Shinoa is able to move on...'
"If you're hoping for some juicy details about Mitsuba and I, you're shit outa
luck. I don't kiss and tell."
"Oh, so your therapy includes kissing now?" Mika teased.
"Shut up. Besides, I didn't really come here to talk about myself you know.
You're the one with the permanent rain cloud over your head."
"Shinoa, please..." Mika really didn't want a lecture right now. He already
felt like a pile of shit.
He could feel her eyes on him as he pointedly ignored her for a few moments.
"So..." Shinoa began. "You heard the news about Yoichi huh?"
Mika clenched his fists. "They were here just a few minutes ago. His scent was
like a beacon to me and every other alpha around. He sure is excited." he
deadpanned.
Shinoa hummed in response. Knowing it was better to let the subject drop for
now, as they sat together in companionable silence and watched the other people
playing in the snow.
With a slight hesitation in her voice, Shinoa spoke again. "Can I tell you a
secret?"
That got Mika to look over at her profile. A light pink tingle was visible over
her scarred cheek. He nodded. Waiting for her to continue.
"I was in love with somebody once..." She began, keeping her eyes forward
toward the scenery. "For a while, I loved that person more than anything. Was
willing to do anything it took to make them happy, in hopes that one day they
would reciprocate." She smiled sadly at the ground. "We went through a lot
together, and had shared many happy memories. But they rejected me. And I
realized then, that they would never love me in the same way that I loved them.
I was angry for a while, and hurt. And I contemplated finding somebody else,
and never seeing them again. That maybe my heart would stop breaking if I
didn't have to see their face anymore. And I hated myself for loving that
person."
Mika cocked his head at her. Wondering who she had been in love with and why
she never told anybody.
She looked him in the eyes then. "I'm saying this to you, because I know that's
how Yuu feels. I know the feeling well, and it hurts." She said. "Yuu loves
you, has been through a lot with you. And wants to make you happy. But you're
rejecting him. If you keep doing it, he's going to regret being with you. And
hate himself for loving you because all he receives back is heartbreak." Mika
winced at her harsh words, but she didn't relent. "Do you want him to regret
bonding with you?"
Mika clenched his shaking fists harder. "NO! Of course not! I just...I don't
know what to do! Every time I imagine being intimate with him though...the
memories...Kureto-"
"You're going to lose him Mika!" Shinoa snapped. "Don't you realize that?!"
Mika growled low. "I do! Wait-no! You don't know that! He's just upset! Once I
see him I'll apologize and-"
"Tch. You think apologizing is going to make you able to be with him? Do you
even know where he is right now?!"
"N-no, but..." He glared. "Wait, do you?!"
Shinoa inspected her fingernails nonchalantly.
"Shinoa!"
"It wouldn't change anything if I told you." She said with a shrug.
"Considering your actions towards him, along with a few things that happened
the other day, he's probably thinking your relationship is over."
A spike of alarm shot up his spine. Mika stood abruptly, looming over her.
Trying to intimidate an answer from her. But she kept her blasé demeanor. "What
the hell is that supposed to mean?! Tell me Shinoa!"
"Well...for one, I heard Ferid scent marked him. He's very interested in your
omega. Wants to be his alpha. I mean, he IS a Royal after all. Ferid could very
well claim Yuu as his if he suspects he's been abandoned."
Mika's vision briefly hazed over with red. Wanting to fucking KILL Ferid for
touching his mate! "I haven't abandoned Yuu-chan! I've been looking for him,
but I cant fucking find him!"
Shinoa rolled her eyes. "You know Yoichi just finished his heat right?"
"Yeah, so? What's that got to do with-" Mika straightened. "Oh shit..." Yoichi
and Yuu's heat cycles were literally back to back. Mika tore at his hair. 'How
the fuck could I not realize...? How could I forget something like that?!' He
wanted to slam his face against the concrete for being so careless and
forgetful. Mika's sense of time and memory was still off kilter. 'God dammit!'
Then he realized that the signs were all there. Yuu's urge and need for
intimacy and how easily he had been hurt by him a few days ago, was because Yuu
was in pre-heat at the time. And was instinctively seeking his mates comfort.
'And you shoved him away and yelled at him to leave!' His instinct chimed in.
He was failing his mate. Making him suffer needlessly when he could ease him so
effortlessly. Other alpha's would sense this. Would scent his distress. No
wonder Ferid had approached him. Had other alpha's offered to be with him as
well?
"Where is he?!" He asked frantically. "Please Shinoa! Tell me!"
"Oh, so NOW you're able to forget everything and help your omega?"
"Maybe not, but I can't lose Yuu-chan to another alpha! I'll do whatever it
takes! It's no too late is it?! Please just tell me where he is!"
Shinoa studied him for a moment, before answering "Yuu's in the single omega
heat ward. He's been in there for four days now..." She said solemnly.
"S-single...?" Did Yuu consider himself single? Mika supposed it was better
than being mated by another alpha. Mika clutched at his chest, his heart
paining him. 'You let your omega suffer for days!' his instinct chastised
again.
Mika turned on his heel and sprinted for the Heat Clinic.
"They won't let you in to see him Mika!" She called after him.
"I'd like to see them try!" He called back. Not seeing the devilish grin
spreading over Shinoa's face.
She dusted off her hands and placed them on her hips. Not feeling the least bit
guilty about lying, or rather 'exaggerating the truth' as Guren would put it.
As long as the outcome worked out in their favor.
"You'll thank me later." She whispered.

See the end of the chapter for more notes
If Yuu had thought that his first heat was bad, he knew nothing. This was
torture! The agony wasn't only on a physical level, but seemed to also consume
him spiritually, emotionally. Mentally.
During his first heat, Guren had injected him with suppressants the night
before. Diminishing some of the side effects. Yet now with his body clean of
all suppressants, the effects had amplified tenfold. Yoichi was right. His body
did cry out for his mate. And every hour of every day that he spent in this
place, the heat grew and grew. Another strange occurrence that he hadn't
noticed nor was told about in his last heat, was that he had ceased all bodily
functions. Which honestly relieved him since he didn't have the strength to
pull himself to the bathroom if he needed to use it.
Yuu clawed and writhed in the nest of pillows and futons he had created. This
was the third night of this hell. "Please for fucks sake! Let this end
already!" He cried out to nobody. He was too hot and too cold at the same time.
His nest was soaked with sweat, slick and drool, several pillows were shredded
from biting, pulling and clawing at the fabric as his abdomen contracted and
uterus expanded, shifting other organs to make room inside of him, and Yuu felt
all of it. The pressure, then the emptiness...The horrible emptiness every time
his entrance clenched around nothing made him sob. Wetting his pillows further
with his tears. It wasn't fair, Yuu conceded. Being injected with suppressants
since infancy had fucked up his body to the point where he couldn't even GET
pregnant. So why the hell did he still have to go through this? Yuu knew their
were suppressants he could take that the clinic provided to curb some of the
agony. But he had grown such an aversion to them for being forced them against
his knowledge and will, and fucking him up, that he'd resolved to go without.
To never touch them again.
Then Yuu had investigated the 'heat aids'. Upon opening the cabinet out of
curiosity, the sight of the various sizes and varieties of dildos, vibrators,
and butt plugs had caused his face to flame uncontrollably. He'd slammed the
cabinet shut. Backing away from it as if he'd just uncovered a dead body. 'No
way. No fucking way in hell!' The sight had horrified him.
Yet now, he was contemplating trying one of them. If they were meant to ease
his heats, maybe it wouldn't be so bad? He was close to his breaking point, and
willing to try anything to fill the emptiness that was slowly eating away at
him. Yet in the end, Yuu couldn't bring himself to do it. Simply holding the
sleek vibrator had made him feel ill.
So here he was now. Sprawled naked on his back over the futons and pillows. A
thin, feather light sheet covered his lower half. But it felt too heavy. The
silken fabric felt like sandpaper against his oversensitive skin. The cool air
of the room cooled his sweat soaked flesh, making him shiver even as his body
heat rose in another wave of heat and contracting. "Haaah! Hah...uuuhhnnn!" His
incessant whining filled the room. Panting heavily once the heat wave passed,
he smoothed his hand down his abs until he reached his aching cock. He
tentatively wrapped his fingers around it. Crying out and flushing at the
sensation of his smooth hand on his sensitive length.
He'd been stubbornly avoiding touching himself. His mother's punishments still
in the back of his mind for doing this to himself. But he was too fucking weak
to do much else. He couldn't exercise to rid himself of the urge, and knew even
trying to was futile in his current state. His hips felt loose and ached, his
limbs wobbly. He feared the impending hours ahead of him, knowing it was only
going to get stronger. And nothing short of release was going to quell it.
He stroked his length slowly, thrusting his hips into his grip for more
friction. But it only heightened his sensitivity and ratcheted up his desires.
The emptiness amplified again. With a pained grunt, Yuu turned to his side.
"God dammit!" he shouted against the pillow. Gasping to catch his breath. He
knew what his body wanted. What it NEEDED. He needed to be filled.
Chest heaving, Yuu brought a hand behind himself. Experimentally circling a
finger over his entrance. It puckered in response, making Yuu flinch as more
slick seeped out from the contact. Gritting his teeth, he sank a finger inside.
Clamping a hand over his mouth to muffle his cries as he pumped the digit in
and out. 'More...I need more!' He added a second finger. The stretch burned a
little, but the slight fullness felt good. He shoved them in as deep as they
would go. Clamping his eyes shut in shame, letting his hot tears roll down his
cheeks as he desperately probed at his sheath and ground his ass against his
hand.
But his goddamn fingers weren't long enough. Unable to reach his prostate and
give him the satisfaction he craved. Mika's fingers were deliciously long and
slender, and skilled when they were inside of him, working his body over the
edge. Unlike Yuu's. No matter how deep he dug them in, he only felt more
desperate. He removed his fingers, punching the futon angrily. "Mikaaa!" Yuu
cried into the pillow. "Mika I need you!" Uncaring of how pathetic he probably
looked right now. He was fine with letting himself slip into despair. He
couldn't stay optimistic under such duress. Yuu choked back sobs. 'Please let
this be over tomorrow!'
~
Tomorrow came. Yuu woke from a fitful sleep that afternoon as he groggily heard
a voice over the intercom.
"Yuuichiro? Yuuichiro Hyakuya, are you there?" It was the beta woman from the
front desk.
On shaky hands and knees, he crawled to the short table where the intercom sat,
pressing the button the speak into it. "Y-yes..." He squeaked. "It's day four
Mr. Hyakuya, has your heat ended?"
Yuu sniffed, unable to hold in his tears of anguish. "No..." he sobbed.
After long moment of silence, Yuu collapsed back down on the pillows and
wrapped a soft blanket around himself. Fighting the tremors as he tried to fall
back asleep. His mind was drifting off again until he heard the voice on the
intercom once more.
"Mr. Hyakuya, I'm sorry but there's a very insistent alpha here requesting to
see you. His name is Mikaela Shindo?"
Yuu's eyes snapped open. 'Mika's here?!'
 
~
"What the hell do you mean I'm not registered?!" Mika barked at the infuriating
beta woman beyond the window. He stifled the urge to put his fist through the
glass.
"When Mr. Hyakuya checked in, he informed me himself that his alpha wouldn't be
coming here. He seemed very certain of himself." The beta scrutinized Mika with
a disappointed expression. Did she think the reason why Yuu told them he
wouldn't be here was because they thought Mika was abusive or something?
Because that was how they were treating the alpha.
Mika placed his palms against the glass, pleading to her. "Please...please let
me in! Let me go to him, he needs me! I know he'll want to see me if you just
let me go to him!"
She shook her head. "I cant just simply let you in. He's in the omega ward with
all the other single omega's who don't want overpowering alpha's trying to rut
with them. Your presence would upset everyone there!"
Mika growled. The nerve of this woman! She didn't even know him, yet there was
harsh judgement in her eyes. "There must be something you can do. Anything!
Just to see if he's willing to change his mind. Or at least talk to me!"
"This is his fourth day here, do you really think he'd be in the mood for
talking?"
Mika wanted to scream with frustration. He immediately hated this fucking beta.
But he had to calm himself. Going into a rage in this place was going to get
him thrown out. He took a deep breath. "I understand your concerns." He said
softly. "And I know what this looks like. But the truth is I didn't even know
he was here, or that he was about to go into heat until a mutual friend told
me. I would have been here the day he checked in if I had!" Mika didn't know if
that was entirely true. But he liked to think that he would have. "We both know
he's in pain and has been in here too long. If you wont let me see him, can you
at least leave him a message? Let him know I came by? It would hurt him more if
he thought I didn't even try..."
She studied him for long, considering moments, before pursing her lips and
leaned over to the intercom. "Mr. Hyakuya? I'm sorry, but there's a very
insistent alpha here requesting to see you. His name is Mikaela Shindo?"
When there was no response for over a full minute, Mika deflated. 'I fucked
up...he doesn't want to see me...' The blond knew he had to figure out a way to
make things right again. He'd be damned if he allowed Kureto to continue to
haunt him even after his death. It wouldn't be easy to forget everything that
happened, but he sure as hell wasn't going to lose Yuu to another alpha over
this. Alpha's and omega's didn't simply 'break up', if they were bonded. Either
Yuu would waste away until death, or bond with another.
The thought of Ferid's mouth on Yuu's smooth, slender neck...His pale blue
irises flickered red at the mental image-
"Mikaela..?" A voice croaked over the intercom. The receptionists brows shot up
in surprise. Mika held his breath. Yuu sounded awful.
"Yes sir," she replied to Yuu. "Would you like to meet with him?"
Mika didn't release his breath throughout the long pause.
Then Yuu rasped "Um...ok."
Mika nearly flew through the roof with elation. Shooting the beta a look of
triumph. She buzzed him into the door on his right and Mika burst through it.
Only to be met with another door. An identical setup to the security measures
Yuu had went through to get in on the opposite side.
The beta woman's voice sounded over the speaker in the small area. "Don't get
too excited. Yuuichiro isn't in this section of the building."
Mika scowled at the speaker on the ceiling.
"We will bring you to a meeting area where you can talk to him through a
reinforced window. Only if he grants permission, will you be allowed access to
him. Is that understood?"
Although Mika commended them for their protectiveness over the omega's here,
his patience was wearing thin. "I get it!" The blond snapped. "Just let me see
him!"
The second door buzzed open, and a large beta male was waiting to escort him.
He was led through the halls towards the meeting room. The scent of heat and
rutting alpha hung heavy in the air. Making the blond's heartbeat accelerate
and caused an unreasonable spike of anger to shoot through him. Along with
being in such close proximity to this large beta employee, the situation grated
on his nerves. He could feel the inklings of rage creeping into the corners of
his mind. He desperately tamped it down. Covering his nose and mouth. 'Yuu-
chan...think of Yuu-chan!'
The beta opened a door to a small room with a chair facing the safety window.
'Looks like a goddamn prison...' Mika thought bitterly.
"It'll be just a minute." The beta bowed respectfully to Mika before leaving
him to sit nervously in the chair. The blond removed his jacket and scarf to
get cool air on his sweating nape. He jogged his leg impatiently as he waited.
'Why am I so nervous?' He focused on gathering his thoughts. Trying to come up
with things he could say to convince his omega to let him in. Mika didn't think
he would have to put up much of a fight though when it came to this. Would he?
The door on the other side of the glass opened. Mika's heart leaped to his
throat when he saw Yuu being helped inside. Still stubbornly trying to walk his
own. Too prideful for his own good when he was clearly in pain. His arm was
slung around the young beta male's shoulders, but the beta's hand supporting
Yuu by the waist made Mika want to growl. He hated the sight of his mate being
touched by others.
"Yuu-chan!" The blond shot to his feet and plastered himself against the glass.
Desperate to hold him. To pull him away from the beta male. Yuu held his gaze
as he was helped to his seat. "Thanks Narumi." Yuu told the beta helping him.
"I'll be alright. You don't have to stay." The beta quirked a brow at Mika
before leaving. The blonds eyes flickered red at the beta, before softening his
gaze to look at his Yuu-chan.
The omega crossed his arms, shifting uncomfortably in the chair. Lamenting Mika
with a haughty attitude. Yuu was angry. He could tell. But his prickly demeanor
did nothing to hide the fact that Yuu was just so beautifully wrecked. And the
sight of him made Mika's fingers claw at the glass with want.
The blond's gaze lingered over every part of his figure with dilated pupils.
Basking in the sight of him. His omega's lips were slightly reddened and
swollen from when he had been likely biting them. Hair disheveled. Nipples hard
and straining against the thin, soft fabric of his white t-shirt. His face was
flushed all the way down past the low slung collar, revealing his delicate
looking collarbone and the claiming mark Mika had left at the spot between his
neck and shoulder. Though the glittering emeralds of Yuu's eyes were shadowed
by dark circles, and almost looked dull in comparison, they were still
beautiful. Tired, anguished...but he could still get lost in those eyes. And
Mika wondered to himself how he had ever been able to push away this mouth
watering creature.
No matter how damaged Mika's mind was, his instincts fought to overpower his
troubled thoughts. And had all but seized on the omega in heat before him.
'Forget what Kureto did! You still want this boy! Don't let that monster sully
your bond!' His instinct was right. He couldn't let The memories of Kureto ruin
his relationship. He was dead, and they were alive. They should savor it.
Yuu glared at Mika with a mournful expression as the blond fought his inner
battle.
"Yuu-chan..." Mika breathed. "please, let me in." he couldn't scent his omega
through the glass and it made him frustrated.
Yuu quirked a brow. Looking at the blond incredulously. "Why?"
"Why?!" Mika ground his teeth. "Because you need me! And I want to give you
what you need!"
Yuu scoffed at his words. "Why the sudden change of heart? You didn't want
anything to do with me a few days ago!" He sighed wearily. "Don't force
yourself to do something you don't want to do Mika. It's not fair for either of
us..." He looked away from the alpha. Intent on keeping his eyes off of him.
"Yuu, I'm so sorry! If I had known you were here I would have come sooner!
Nobody would tell me where you were though! I'd searched for you-"
"I've been doing fine on my own. Really. You don't have to come to my rescue or
whatever..."
Mika knew he was lying. Could see the tremoring of his muscles beneath his
sweat soaked skin, how utterly in need he was.
Yuu needed him. And he was just so damned proud and stubborn that he rather
suffer than ask his alpha for release. 'Fine. If Yuu-chan wants to play that
game...' The blond brought a hand up to start unbuttoning the collar of his
shirt.
"Neh neh, Yuu-chaaan..." He crooned. Earning a glance from the omega. He
rewarded the boy's attention by unbuttoning his shirt to right above his navel.
Mika groaned under his gaze and Yuu snapped his head fully towards the alpha.
Blinking at him owlishly. "M-Mika! What are you doing?!"
"Yuu-chan is so beautiful..." he breathed. "But since you wont let me in to
touch you, I'll just have to pleasure myself to your image." Mika couldn't
believe he was actually doing this. But If Yuu-chan wouldn't listen to reason,
'seduction might be a good tactic.' He figured.
Yuu swallowed thickly, pupils blown as he gaped at the sight of Mika stripping
off his shirt. Goosebumps from the chill air arose over the alpha's pale skin.
As Mika removed his shirt completely, Yuu noticed the various scars over his
chest, all the way down past his low slung jeans. Which just riveted Yuu's gaze
even more. The alphas scarred body reminding Yuu of the hell Mika had endured.
He was a bit thinner than he had previously been, but Yuu could see that he was
recovering quickly from his imprisonment and reverting back to his more
prominent, lean, sculpted stature. It was hard to ignore the tantalizing view.
Mika blushed hotly as he slipped his hand down his stomach to the button-fly of
his jeans, popping open the first button. Yuu's spine tingled in anticipation,
and as if his legs had a mind of their own, he found himself standing with his
hands resting on the glass.
His lips parted on a shaky breath. "Why are you doing this..." he whispered.
He could all but feel the alpha's body heat through the glass barrier. He tried
to steel himself, to show Mika how jaded he was for spending four days in this
place without him. But his resolve was crumbling as he watched his alpha slip
his hand into his pants.
"Do you want to see it, Yuu-chan?"
Against his better judgement, Yuu nodded slowly.
"Let me see more of you too then..."
Yuu bit his lip, considered it for a moment, 'Well it IS warm in here...' Then
hesitantly peeled off he sweat dampened shirt, and rested his shaking palms
against the glass again.
Mika placed a hand against one of Yuu's, staring down the omega with hooded
eyes. "Wanna touch you so badly..." he moaned and he began to stroke himself
beneath his jeans. Resisting the urge to lick to glass between him and Yuu's
chest. His flushed skin looked so damned tempting. He wanted to sink his teeth
into it and mark the hell out of him over and over.
"Mikaaa...." Yuu whined with a reedy voice. "I thought you were going to let me
see it..."
"I'm embarrassed Yuu-chan. There's camera's in here. I rather show you in
private..." Mika removed his hand from his pants. Almost smiling at the needy
whimpers coming from his omega. He rested his forehead against the glass. Yuu
followed suit. They both stared into each others eyes for long moments.
"Please, Yuu-chan..." Mika whispered. "Please let me in...I'll be good to you."
After a few heartbeats, Yuu pushed away from the glass with a huff, scooping up
his shirt, and unsteadily left the room. Mika blinked after him. 'What the hell
just happened?' Dread settled in the pit of his stomach. He started putting his
shirt back on, gripping his jacket in his shaking fists. 'Did Yuu reject me?!
What the hell am I going to do now?!'
He started feeling his throat tighten with panic when the door to his area
opened and the large beta male stepped inside. The blond held his breath as he
awaited the verdict with hopeful eyes.
"Mr. Hyakuya has granted you access. We're transferring him to a couple's room
now."
Mika sagged with relief. 'I still have a chance...' He'd never had to coerce an
omega into wanting him before. And it wasn't an easy task for him, all things
considered. But seeing how Yuu reacted to him just from stripping off his
shirt, had given Mika a much needed sense of power over him. Yuu couldn't be
bent to anybody's will. 'Except mine...' It was heady. And possessiveness
fueled his ego even more. 'Yuu-chan is mine, and mine alone!'
~
As much as Yuu wanted to pace his nerves away after they had transferred him to
the larger 'couples room', he was too weak from the exertion of standing and
walking when he went to meet with Mika. It may have been a stupid move on his
part, but he didn't want the alpha to see just how wrecked he really was. Now
all he could do was sit on the bed and try to gather more strength as he
waiting in anticipation. 'Stupid Mika. With his stupid teasing and his
stupid...'
Yuu sighed. He wished he could be angry with him about it. For making him weak.
For making him submit. For making his body react so much and his strange omegan
instincts to arise that made him want to strip naked and await his alpha with
his ass exposed in a display of submission. But of course, he did none of those
things. And he couldn't even muster up the energy to be stubborn any longer.
Because,...'Fuuuck...' Seeing the alpha like that was hot. And Yuu knew that it
must have taken a lot for Mika to put on such a display. If the blond really
wanted to see him that badly as to strip and tease him like that, then of
course he'd let him in! And hopefully be fucked senseless by the alpha. But not
before berating him first. He still had to hold onto at least a SHRED of
dignity! At least, that was what he expected of himself.
When the doorbell chimed, Yuu rose unsteadily and took a deep breath to steel
himself before unlocking the door. There Mika stood, with the large beta behind
him with a hand clamped over his shoulder. 'I should have warned the betas here
not to treat Mika this way!' He'd just been imprisoned by betas! Yuu suspected
being manhandled wouldn't sit well with the alpha. Which was evidenced by how
Mika looked like he wanted to bite the large beta's hand off.
"It's alright Tarou, you can go."
"Will you be ok?" Tarou asked him. As if Mika would actually harm him. The
blond might be skittish, and maybe a bit more violent than before, but Yuu
trusted his alpha enough to know he would never physically harm him.
Emotionally? Probably. During sex? All bets were off. Yuu shivered at the
thought. He'd take his chances.
"Everything's fine." Yuu said softly. Unable to put any more energy into his
words. He felt like collapsing from the effort to stand.
With a nod, the beta released Mika and the blond hurried inside. Yuu heard him
release a pent up breath once the door was closed, then he turned to him. Yuu
leaned against the wall for support.
"Yuu..." The alpha moved to embrace him, but the omega held him away with an
outstretched hand. Fighting against his instinct to cling to the blond.
"Don't play games with me Mika..." Yuu whispered. "I'm in no mood to be teased
anymore."
Mika gave him an anguished look. "I'm not playing, Yuu. I'm sorry for treating
you the way I did when you came to see me. But I wont do that again. Ever. I
promise!"
Yuu shook his head, slumping forward weakly. Growing too weak to stand any
longer. "Mika...I don't know everything that you've been through. And it's my
fault for not taking that into consideration. Obviously what you've been
through made this sort of thing unappealing to you. So please, don't force this
on yourself. It'll only hurt me more..."
Mika cupped the omega's face, forcing their eyes to meet. The blond's bright
blue eyes grew darker, more predatory. "Never, I never want to hurt Yuu-chan!"
The alpha crushed his lips against his, hungrily. Desperately seeking. Yuu
squeaked in surprise, before parting his lips in a low moan. The scent of his
alpha was intoxicating, and it made his entrance slick with readiness. He
kissed him back feverishly, with all the pent up desire he'd been feeling over
the past four days.
Big hands roamed over his body. Groping his chest, his aching hips, his ass,
Mika clutched at the fabric of his clothing, tearing the shirt from his body.
Yuu gasped, biting his lip when Mika broke their kiss to tug down his
sweatpants. The cool air hitting his skin causing goosebumps to arise, and Yuu
arched away from the wall get more contact. "Mika, Mika!" He gasped. Pressing
his nose and mouth over the alpha's scent gland in the junction between his
neck and shoulder. Sucking on it to release more of his musky, arousing scent.
Mika tensed, shuttering against him, causing Yuu to pull back with a start.
"S-sorry..."
"S'okay..." the alpha murmured through labored breaths, ripping open his own
shirt and pressing the omega's head back to the spot. Yuu inhaled deeply. The
mere scent of Mika easing the ache and pain thrumming through Yuu's body. The
omega sighed in relief. 'This is what I've needed...' Mika pressed his own face
against Yuu's neck, inhaling deeply as Yuu carded his fingers through his blond
hair. Then the alpha froze. A deep growl reverberated through Mika's chest. Yuu
gulped. "M-Mika?"
"That other fucking alpha..."
Fear skittered up Yuu's spine. "Oi, Mika! I didn't do anything with him! I
swear-"
"How dare he fucking touch what's mine!"
"Mika, wait-aahh!" Mika's eyes flickered to red before he clamped his teeth
down on Yuu's claiming mark, causing the omega to release a gasp as he sucked
in hair and fisted handfuls of blond hair.
The blond pushed Yuu against the wall harder, leaving red marks over the
omega's thighs and hips as he dragged his nails across his sensitive skin. He
grasped the space below Yuu's asscheeks and lifted him up to wrap Yuu's legs
around him. Grunting with satisfaction at the feeling of his omega's hard cock
pressing between their stomachs. Mika grasped it, stroking the boy's to full
hardness until he felt it throb in his palm. He released it to pull at the
buttons on his jeans, released his own cock with a hiss and positioning it and
the omega's wet entrance. He could feel Yuu panting beneath his teeth still
buried in his neck.
He loosened his hold on the omega's ass to let him slide down the wall as Mika
probed his cock at his entrance. Letting gravity take over, Yuu sunk down
against the wall to be impaled on Mika's length. He slid inside, pushing past
the resistance of the tight velvety ring of muscle until he was sheathed to the
hilt.
Yuu cried out in pain as he grappled at Mika's shoulders for purchase. Nearly
climbing the wall to relieve himself of the sudden intrusion. Mika just
followed him up, clamping his hands on Yuu's hips to wrench him down on his
thick, throbbing erection.
"Fuuck! Uuhhnn-Mika! Too much!"
He clawed at Mika's back as he began to thrust up into him. Earning a sharp
growl from the alpha. Mika released his bite, meeting Yuu's green eyes with his
red ones. Blood stained the alphas lips. With a look of warning, Mika gripped
Yuu's wrists with one hand to hold them above his head. He seated himself
deeper, pausing his movements to let Yuu adjust. The omega's breaths came out
in ragged gasps at the feeling of being stretched nearly beyond capacity. Sweat
sheened over his chest and stomach from the pain.
Mika pressed into him harder, pushing him flush against the wall as he took his
mouth again. The metallic tang of blood hit Yuu's tongue before Mika pulled
away again. The deep ruby color of Mika's eyes was unnerving, and the sly grin
spreading across the blond's face as he smeared the blood over Yuu's lips made
the omega gape in wonderment.
'He's gone mad...' Yuu mused. Even as he felt his entrance clench and grow more
wet with slick around Mika's deep seated cock.
The conflicting feelings of fear and arousal excited him. Something about this
raw, animalistic side of Mika called to Yuu's instincts, and he found himself
rolling his hips to get more friction and penetration. 'If Mika's going to lose
his mind, then I want to lose mine with him.'
"Fuck me alpha..." Yuu heard himself whispering. "Mark me everywhere, I'm
yours..."
With a snarl, Mika sank his teeth into the other side of Yuu's neck as he
bucked into his tight heat. Yuu gasped out a sharp moan with every brutal
thrust. Mika angled Yuu's hips so that he assaulted his prostate with every
thrust into him. Making the omega keen as white blinded his vision from the
onslaught. It didn't take long before the coil of pleasure was wound so tight
that Yuu bucked his hips desperately for more. His moans grew louder and
constant. Desperate to be hurled over the edge. The sensation of his impending
orgasm grew so strongly his head spun.
"Please-there-Mika-harder!" he rambled incessantly.
Each word punctuated by Mika's cock plunging into him. Reveling in the pain and
the pleasure. In the feeling of his alpha marking him over and over with his
teeth. In the groans and grunts the blond was making against his skin. The
frustration from being denied the use of his hands. Yuu ground harder against
the base of Mika's shaft. Wanting him deeper. WANTING Mika to make it hurt.
Wanting to feel the aftermath of their lovemaking for days.
The blond's hips stuttered as his cock grew thicker and throbbed from his own
impending orgasm. He released Yuu's wrists to palm his ass and speed his pace.
Yuu seized the opportunity. Gripping Mika's shoulders as he sank his own teeth
into the alpha's neck. Giving him his own mark of possession.
"Aah! Yuu-chan!" Mika exploded into Yuu, his cum shooting against the omega's
sweet spot and making him immediately follow. The alpha's seed filling him to
the brim and leaking out of his slick hole. Yuu's own cum lashed their torsos
and smeared between them as Mika continued to fuck him through their release.
The omega's sensitive walls clenched almost painfully around Mika, the friction
causing Yuu to grow hard again. But Mika's erection never waned. And a troubled
realization came about that the alpha hadn't knotted him.
Mika sank to his knees, still keeping Yuu pinned against the wall and he
continued his assault on the omega's sheath. Yuu straddled his lap. Head
lolling against Mika's shoulder as he let himself be taken again. Able to do
nothing but hold on as Mika brought them both to completion again.
Yuu's legs shook with strain as he collapsed against his alpha. "Mika..." He
breaths came out in short pants. "Please...please..." He really wasn't sure
what he wanted at the moment. Rest? Another orgasm? A change in position maybe?
He squirmed against the blond until Mika pulled back to meet his gaze. Eyes
still red with rage.
"T-tired Mika. So tired..." Yuu's eyes wandered to the mark he left on Mika's
neck. The alpha must have noticed because he narrowed his eyes on him. "Uh...s-
sorry-" Yuu was cut off by Mika abruptly lifting him into his arms, kicking off
his jeans as he carried him to the bed. Yuu yelped when Mika pulled out of him
to plop him onto the mattress. Then the blond went to his pile of clothes to
retrieve a scarf that was tucked into his jacket pocket. 'What's he planning on
doing with that?!'
Yuu's question was answered when Mika wordlessly positioned him on his knees
with his back facing the alpha, gripping Yuu's wrists and using the scarf to
tie them behind his back. 'Seriously?! He hates me touching him that much?' Yuu
would have been pissed if the sensation of Mika nipping and licking at the back
of his neck and shoulders weren't making him so slick and hard.
Then abruptly, Mika shoved his face into the mattress, gripping Yuu's hips to
hold his ass up as he plunged into with one fluid motion. Leaning over, the
blond ran his tongue from the base of Yuu's spine to the shell of his ear. His
hands roaming over Yuu's smooth hairless body. Making the omega shutter.
His sheath clenched around the fullness and more slick mingled with Mika's cum
leaked out and slid down the back of Yuu's thighs. Mika moaned at the sight.
Driving into the tight softness and raking his nails over Yuu's overly
sensitive skin. Yuu cried out from the overwhelming stimulation. Thrusting his
ass backwards to meet Mika's every thrust. Encouraging him to fuck him harder.
The headboard banged against the wall, the lewd sounds of skin slapping
together and squelching noise of Yuu's cunt being fucked mercilessly by the
alpha was permeating his senses. The omega's entire body sheened with sweat,
and bite marks littered his shoulders, hips and wrists. The bites would heal
seamlessly, unlike the claiming mark. But Yuu relished every mark left on him.
The omega in him feeling wanted and elated from the possessiveness. His insides
felt so full as Mika released into him again. Dragging Yuu with him into
another orgasm. He didn't know how much more of his seed he could take inside
of him.
And the alpha still didn't knot him. Even after coming for the third time, Mika
remained hard, his animalistic sounds filling the room. Combining with Yuu's
moans and cries, and still, Mika didn't let up. The omega's legs gave out as he
collapsed into his own sticky cum staining the sheets below him. Mika finally
slowed for a minute to let Yuu catch his breath. His entire body ached and
shuddered from being fucked for so long, with no end in sight.
Mercifully, the alpha untied the scarf from around Yuu's wrist. The feeling of
blood flowing back to his extremities was almost like a sexual release. Yuu
groaned loudly. Bringing his arms out to stretch infront of him to ease the
tension built in his shoulders.
Then Mika turned him over to his back. Yuu's arms flopped uselessly at his
sides as Mika spread the omega's legs wide to enter him once more. Yuu didn't
even protested. Wouldn't be satisfied until his alpha knotted him. If it took
all night, so be it.
The alpha's movements were more languid this time. Even intimate, even as his
eyes remained red and predatory.
Then Yuu had a thought. 'If he's in a rage, will he even remember this night?'
the thought made his heart twist in his chest. 'Is being in rage state the only
way he can have sex anymore?' Tears stung his eyes.
Even if Mika couldn't control it, the thought of him entering his rage state
just to be able to fuck him, hurt....He enjoyed his animalistic nature while it
lasted. But he wanted his alpha here with him. Body AND mind.
"Mika-" Yuu sniffed as tears rolled down his cheeks. Mika didn't react. Just
pinned him under his vacant red gaze as he slowly rocked into him. "Mika." He
said again. Bringing his hands up to cup Mika's face. Stroking his cheeks with
his thumbs. "Come back to me..."
The blond's brows drew together in confusion, but his eyes flickered from red
to blue and back again. "I love you Mika." Yuu whispered. "Please, come back to
me."
Mika blinked several times as his eyes reverted back to their calm blue.
"I-I love you too Yuu-chan..." Without stopping his movements, he kissed Yuu
gently. Not even protesting about Yuu touching his face. He broke the kiss to
press their foreheads together. Mika's breathing became labored, thrusting
deeper, and Yuu gasped when he felt the alpha's knot grow at the base of his
shaft. Yuu thrilled with renewed energy.
"Yes-Mika! Knot me! I need it!" He rolled his hips on Mika's cock. The alpha
grit his teeth, and with a few more deep thrusts he came again with a breathy
groan, his knot locking them together to keep every drop of his seed inside.
Panting and nipping at Yuu's nipples and up his neck as he seated himself as
deep as he could go.
The overwhelming fullness made Yuu's eyes roll in the back of his head, "Aaah
God Mikaaa! It's so fucking good!" he arched sharply off the bed, coming to
fruition once more before collapsing from exhaustion. 
They clung to one another desperately. Uncaring of the mess around them as they
lay nuzzling each others necks and breathing deeply of each others scent. "I
missed you Yuu-chan." Mika whispered against his throat.
"Hah...mnn...I missed you too." He whispered through labored breaths. "Don't
ever leave me again, idiot."
"Never leave you again...I promise." Mika rolled them to their sides. Listening
to their breathing slow to a steady pace as sleep overtook them.

Mika woke slowly as he felt his knot deflate. Barely a fifteen minute rest, but
Mika felt too on edge to sleep. He removed himself from his sleeping omega and
tried to find some ease by nuzzling his face in his soft black hair. It helped
a little. Yuu smelled strongly of him. No traces of the other alpha were left.
Mika's scent had overpowered him. He looked down at the various bruises and
bite marks littering the omega's flesh. He winced. The bites wouldn't scar, but
'holy shit! what have I done?!'
The skin on Yuu's wrist were chafed from where he had tied them together, and
blood stained Yuu's bottom lip. Mika's blood...
He brought a hand up to touch the Mark Yuu had left on his shoulder. Shuddering
at the memory. An omega marking an alpha was unheard of. Marking was a display
of dominance, which omega's simply didn't do! Mika should have been horrified,
and disgusted by the fact that another being had tried to assert dominance over
him yet again. He waited for the flashbacks to arise...waiting...nothing?
Running his fingers over the mark again, his mind grew oddly at ease. For the
first time in months, a calm settled over him. 'How is that possible?' A red
haze covered his memory of their copulating, but he still recalled everything
that had happened. As much as he wished he could have fought it, his instincts
took over when he had scented Ferid on his omega, and diminished any remaining
inklings of hesitation that Mika had felt about mating with Yuu.
He had fucked him in a rage state. Though, it wasn't the same kind of rage he
felt while he was fighting against JIDA and Kureto. Instead of being
overwhelmed by his need to kill and his anger and revenge, he was overcome by
lust and a need to possess and satisfy and breed his omega. Rational thought
left, memories of his imprisonment vanished, until all that was left in his
mind's eyes was them two and the desire for one another. His body controlled by
pure instinct, to the point where all he could do was watch as he took Yuu over
and over in an animalistic frenzy. And it felt incredible to just let go, and
revel in his mates moans and cries and his rich, overwhelming scent of heat and
slick and the way his omega's velvety sheath milked his shaft as they came
together.
The only instance where his instinct slipped and the flashbacks had risen, was
when Yuu had clawed at his back. Remembering the pain of being flayed, he had
to hold Yuu's wrists to keep him from doing it again. But as he pleasure
mounted, his hold on Yuu's wrists were forgotten. Leading to Yuu biting him.
And Mika realized that a small part in the back of his mind had liked it, and
saw it as a challenge. Made him want to tie up the omega so he was helpless
beneath him, to master him, to show him that if he wanted to mark an alpha as
his, then he'd make it clear that he was still an omega and he, his alpha,
still held power over him.
Mika smiled at the memory. Yuu wasn't a typical omega though. He possessed
dominate tendencies of his own through his stubborn, strong willed and
demanding nature. But that was why Mika loved him. He was a novelty that would
never wear off. He challenged Mika and encouraged him to be stronger, to be a
better person, to let go of his self hatred. Yuu took shit from nobody, and
that gave the blond the much needed confidence that Yuu couldn't possibly be
stolen away and claimed by another alpha. Yuu would likely kick their ass if
they tried.
But he let Mika claim him. And breaking the omega down the way he had tonight,
making his hot headed lover submit so completely was a heady feeling. Because
he knew he was the only one he could do that to Yuu. And the thought made heat
shoot straight to his cock.
'God...Yuu-chan is just too good to be true...'
And for the first time, Mika understood why alpha's and omega's had these fated
ties. One truly couldn't live without the other. If Yuu had never come into his
life, he would still be withering away in that cell. And even if he did manage
to escape, he likely would have never recovered this amount of sanity. Mika
needed this omega. He was the only one who could fix what was broken. Whether
Yuu knew it or not, the omega was healing him through his words and his
actions. Giving Mika exactly what he needed, before he even knew he needed it.
Mika frustratingly wasn't able to knot during his rage, and had fought to bring
himself back to the surface. But all it took was a gentle touch and a few sweet
words from Yuu to be able to quell his rage and bring them completion. To give
his omega what he needed.
The blond's eyes riveted to Yuu's bare stomach, and how it was ever so slightly
bulged from being filled so much with Mika's seed. The sight of the subtle
roundness tugged at something inside of his chest. And he found himself praying
that Yuu would conceive this night. He ran his palm tenderly over the swell,
eliciting a purring sound from the omega that Mika had never heard from any
omega he had been with before. A purr of pure happiness and contentment and
comfort.
Mika bit his lip with want. 'Did Yuu take any suppressants?' Mika wondered. His
scent was so strong and overpowering compared to last time, making Mika doubt
that he had.
Were they ready for a family yet? They were young, yes. But so were Yoichi and
Shiho. They were younger than Mika and Yuu were. But they were starting a
family. Mika wanted that too! Now that he knew that he needed to stay connected
to Yuu-chan get better, to be able to forget, he wanted more with him. It may
be selfish, but he wanted to keep Yuu as close as possible, and show every
other alpha who he belonged to. And what better way to show everyone that they
were spoken for than a baby on the way? Even before his imprisonment, the
though of Yuu pregnant with his offspring ad made Mika feel so warm inside,
that he'd craved it ever since.
Mika ran a hand through his messy golden hair before going over to his pile of
clothes to slip on his briefs. Then wrapped himself in an extra blanket from
the linen closet. Anxiety began to settle in the pit of his stomach as he sat
at the window sill to gaze out into the night.
Who was he kidding? Yuu likely didn't even want any of that. Who would want
children with a fucked up alpha with PTSD and a tendency to go into rage states
just to be able to fuck? Mika was even afraid to sleep next to Yuu incase he
raged in his sleep. What if he harmed him? Mika sighed wearily. Just when the
new doors of possibility opened for him, they were all slammed in his face once
more. Self hatred suffused him. Yuu deserved better, deserved an alpha who was
capable and level headed. All the things Mika USED to be.
But the blond was too selfish. Even if he made Yuu miserable with his fucked up
way of thinking and overly aggressive nature, he couldn't give him up. And he
hated himself more for his irrationality. He needed Yuu, needed to talk to him
about all of this.
When it came down to it, it was the omega's choice, not his. He really hoped he
woke up soon. He was sane enough to know his thoughts were entering a dark
place. And he needed his omega to pull him out of it. 'You're so fucking
selfish Mika!' he berated himself. His omega needed rest. He resolved to watch
over him until he woke. A sated, sleepy and naked Yuu-chan was something he
could watch for hours if he had to.
 
~
When Yuu stretched out an arm towards the empty side of the mattress, he
frowned to find it cold and empty. He blinked open his eyes, darting them
around the room. Panicked for a second that either what had happened was a
dream, or Mika had left. The first was confirmed false by how sore his legs and
hips were, the latter by the mess of blond hair illuminated by the moonlight as
Mika sat by the window.
He took a moment to gaze upon the blond with open admiration. His sharp,
aristocratic features appeared more prominent when contoured by the shadows of
the dark room. Blond waves hanging past his strong jawline and artfully
disarrayed. His lips were set in a grim line. Which made Yuu frown, bringing
his gaze up to his eyes. Their red hue seemed to glow in the night. 'What was
wrong?'
He sat up, wrapping the sheet around himself to shield his nudity. Suddenly
feeling very self conscious. "Mika?" He called out to him. But received no
response. He got out of bed to sidle over to the alpha. He could smell the
anxiety and turmoil rolling off of him. Nervously, he moved closer. "Mika..."
he cupped his face hesitantly. When the blond didn't make any startled
movements, he slowly turned his head towards him to meet his eyes. Mika stared
back at him blankly. "Hey..." He swallowed thickly. "Come back to me, Mika."
The alpha squeezed his eyes shut, appearing to shake himself. "S-sorry Yuu-
chan." His eyes were blue again when they opened to look at the omega. "I was
just thinking too much..."
Yuu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yuu-chan! Did I scare you?! Shit, I'm so sorry!"
"Huh? N-no!" Yuu smiled at him reassuringly. He wasn't afraid for himself in
the least bit. "I was just worried about you. I thought something was seriously
wrong or something..."
Mika leaned into the omega. Wrapping his arms around his waist. "I'll be ok...I
just..."
Yuu cocked his head. Something was obviously on Mika's mind. After not being
able to talk to him for so long, Yuu suddenly felt awkward. He wished Mika
could talk to him about his troubles. But he wouldn't push for it. "You
know...If you need to talk, I'll listen. I'm not going anywhere. You can tell
me anything. It won't change how I feel."
Mika chuckled lightly. "Thank you for that, Yuu. There was actually...something
that I wanted to...ask you..."
"Hmm?"
Mika looked up at him. Steeling himself. Yuu's brows drew together, noticing
whatever he was going to say was a serious matter. "Yuu-chan, I wanted to know
if you took suppressants?"
"Oh, Um...no. I didn't..." A cold chill crept up his spine. Dreading where this
conversation was heading. But he had to tell Mika one way or the other.
Mika smiled lightly. 'Oh fuck...please don't look at me that way!' He bit the
inside of his cheek to stave off the tears.
"Are you...planning on taking them? Because if you don't want to...I'd be ok
with that. More than ok actually! I-"
"Mika." Yuu cut him off. He stared down at the alpha's lap. He didn't want to
hear Mika say the words. Couldn't bear to hear that Mika was about to ask for
something that Yuu couldn't give him. Tears began spilling. He couldn't control
them any more than he could control his rampant hormones. Yuu wanted it too.
His instincts wanted it. Mika wanted it. And Yuu felt like a complete failure.
"I can't Mika..." He whispered softly.
Mika's face fell. "Oh...ok. I understand you're concerns um..."
Yuu's head snapped up. "No! Its not like that Mika!" He started feeling Mika
move to stand. He wasn't meeting his eyes. 'Dammit!' So Yuu straddled his lap,
letting the sheet fall. Uncaring anymore that he was naked. He needed to make
him stay. "Mika! Please, I didn't mean that I didn't WANT to!"
"Yuu-chan..." Mika breathed. Suddenly very aware that Yuu was naked and sitting
on his dick as he ghosted his hands along the omega's sides. Noticing how the
bite marks were already almost healed completely. "You don't have to explain.
If you're not ready I'll wait." He kissed at his neck, but Yuu pushed him back
against the chair. Earning a concerned look from the blond at the fact that Yuu
was still crying. "Yuu?"
"When I say I cant, I meant that...I PHYSICALLY can't." Yuu hung his head. Not
wanting to see the blond's expression.
Mika just blinked. Confused. "What do you mean Yuu-chan? You're in heat.
That's, kind of what this is meant for-"
"I know that. But..." Yuu sighed heavily, his tears drying as anger filled him.
"When I was one years old, Guren left to join JIDA. He knew I was an omega, so
did my mother. He left and hid my identity from them, to keep me safe. Also to
try to keep me safe and hidden, he....drugged me. Well my mom did. Guren stole
special blends of suppressants from JIDA to inject me with. He and my mother
tried to suppress my omega gene, so I would grow up as a beta. His goal was to
keep suppressing me so I never presented. But then I met you...and I did
anyway..."
Mika gaped, slack jawed. His hands on Yuu's hips tightening. He could smell the
alpha's anger rising.
"I was angry too Mika. I still am. Especially after I learned that because I've
been injected with such strong suppressants for pretty much my entire life,
that it fucked me up. I can still go into heat obviously, but...getting
pregnant isn't in the cards for me-Mika?" His eyes had turned red again.
"I'm going to kill him..." Mika said flatly.
"Woah, wait! What?!"
"That fucking bastard Guren!"
"Hey! Calm down!" He gripped Mika's hair. "You're not KILLING Guren! Jesus
Mika, he helped you escape remember?!"
His eyes flickered blue again. "Yeah, but-"
"He did what he had to, to keep JIDA away from me. And he brought me and you
together again. We cant stay mad at him for this!"
Mika sighed. Bringing their foreheads together. "You cant expect me to forgive
him Yuu-chan. Not when he took away something like that from us!"
Yuu worried his bottom lip. Not really knowing what to say. He knew Mika had a
right to be angry. He was angry too. But sitting here being angry about
something that they couldn't change wasn't going to CHANGE facts. Then an idea
arose. "Hey, Mika. How many would you want?"
"Don't tease me Yuu-chan. That's so mean-"
"Just humor me. Pick a number."
Mika snorted through his nose. "I don't know. Lots? As many as we could..."
Yuu smiled. That warm fuzzy feeling bloomed inside of his chest. The omega in
him elated at his admission. "Then lets adopt!"
"Adopt?!" Mika drew his head back to see if Yuu was being serious. He was
smiling, but he couldn't tell if he was joking or not.
"Sure! Why not? You, Mitsuba, Yoichi, Kimizuki, all of you know what it's like
to be abandoned by your parents. We can open an orphanage here! Krul doesn't
have one. And you and I could go out there and find all of the abandoned kids.
Take them here, give them a home? And we'd be fighting against JIDA by rescuing
our kind before they can get their hands on them!"
Mika blinked at him for long moments. And Yuu started to feel stupid for coming
up with such a thing. 'I thought it was a great idea...' But maybe Mika didn't
really even like kids. Maybe he'd only like kids if they were his own
offspring-
Then Mika hugged him tightly. "Oh my god Yuu-chan-" Mika chuckled heartily
against him. "You're so kind! And you're completely insane!"
"Seriously? You jerk! It's not like it's a BAD idea!" He shoved away from the
alpha. Crossing his arms and pouting. "Jeez, sorry for bringing it up!"
"Yuu come back," He grasped his face, planted kisses on his cheeks and mouth.
"It's a great idea. It really is! Its just..." Mika trailed off. Looking
serious once more. "I...I don't think the higher ups will allow me to be around
kids Yuu-chan. They'll say I'm too violent. Too fucked up in the head...I could
hurt somebody..."
"But you're not violent when you're with me!"
"Yeah, but-this is the first time we've actually spent time together since..."
Mika shook his head. "I'm afraid to even sleep next to you. I'm afraid I'll
rage in my sleep and hurt you, Yuu. And I still cant handle people touching
me...You're the only one I can handle it from so far."
Yuu brought a hand up under the alpha's chin, smiling "But you come back to me
every time I ask you to. You would never hurt me. I know you wouldn't." Yuu
wriggled closer on his lap. Showing how comfortable he was with Mika, and that
he trusted him. "And we can start going to therapy together. Like how Mistuba
and Shinoa do. To make you more comfortable with people touching you. It's
working well for Shinoa!"
"Yeah..." Mika's expression turned solemn. "But Shinoa's case is...different,
than mine."
Yuu cocked his head to the side. Waiting for him to continue.
'Should I tell him the truth?' Mika wondered. 'Once he knows everything, will
he still look at me the same way?' He didn't know if he was ready to reveal
everything to Yuu or not. But Yuu had hopes for the future. Actual dreams and
goals he wanted to accomplish. And Mika was feeling like he was once again
holding somebody back because of what he had been through. Yuu wanted to do
these things WITH his alpha. If Mika was going to deny him his wishes, then his
omega deserved an explanation. 'Either now, or in the future when it may be
more difficult?'
Mika took a deep breath. Only realizing then that he had started shaking.
"Yuu...I'm different...and I'm like this, because Kureto...he..." Mika dropped
his head to Yuu's chest, wanting to hide his face, wanted to bury himself in
his shame. He clung to the omega, afraid he would run from him upon hearing the
truth. "Yuu-chan-" He choked out. "Kureto d-did things to me! I was stuck in
solitary, I couldn't hear or see anything!" His words were coming out in rapid
succession. "I was losing my mind-and he took me out of my cell-and he did
shameful things-he got off on it-and I let him! I was a coward!" Mika sobbed
into his chest. "Ah god Yuu, I hate myself so fucking much for what he did to
me! I'm disgusting, and I'm ruined and I still want you anyway! I'm sorry..."
"Mika..." All Yuu could do was wrap Mika's blanket around the both of them and
hold his alpha's trembling form. Yuu should have been more surprised by Mika's
words. But to be honest, he already had his suspicions. He'd learned a lot
about Kureto through Guren and during his short time here at Krul's compound.
And judging by how Mika had reacted when he'd jumped him, it kind of made
sense. And made him wonder..."Is that why you had sex with me in rage state? So
you wouldn't have to remember anything?"
Mika jolted at his words, then held Yuu out at arms length. "Wait what?! No!
Yuu-chan I remember everything!"
"Oh. But I was told by Guren that you didn't remember everything when you went
into rage at the airport?"
Mika smiled. "Well, my instincts don't want to block out Yuu-chan. You're too
important."
"But you pushed me away when I first came to see you."
"I know! I'm sorr-"
"I'm not saying that for an apology. I'm wondering why it's different now."
Mika sniffed. "I don't know. I guess because I was so caught off guard and
confused from just waking up after being out for three days. I was nervous when
I first came here. Which Shinoa had to tell me about you coming here by the
way!"
Yuu flushed guiltily.
"But being with you this way, makes it hard for me to remember all the bad. I
don't know why I went into rage. Maybe to keep those memories tamped down. But
I remember everything. And I loved it. And being with you makes living more
bearable. I need you, I'm selfish, and I'm sorry. I never wanted you to know
any of this. I didn't want you to leave me-"
"Pfft! You really think I would leave you over that? What kind of asshole do
you take me for?!"
"But...Kureto-"
"Who cares what Kureto did! That doesn't make you weak! He's the dead one now
isn't he? YOU slaughtered him! HE was weak! Don't you see that?!"
Mika was contemplative for long moments. Long enough to make Yuu frustrated
because his symptoms were returning.
"If it's worth anything, you're the strongest alpha I know. And if I'm selfish
for needing you too then so be it. You're probably the only alpha who would
still want an omega who cant have offspring. We're both fucked up from our
pasts, but I think that works out just fine for us! We need each other Mika.
You can't deny that."
Finally Mika smiled. Bringing their lips together. "You're right. I cant deny
any of that. Except for the part about you. You're perfect just the way you
are."
Yuu flushed with pleasure at Mika's words. And how the alpha said them like it
was a simple fact. The heat started amplifying through his muscles again and he
squirmed in Mika's lap until the blanket slid off of them. "Then show me,
Mika." Yuu breathed. "Show me how much you need me. But this time, I wanna se
your blue eyes the entire time."
Mika bit his lip at the feeling of the omega's ass rubbing against his length.
Stiffening with a swift heat. He could deny Yuu nothing.

"Seriously Ferid, did you have to make it so PUBLIC?" Guren chastised the
silver haired alpha. "Every alpha in that building could smell you on
Yuuichiro. You've likely made my son seem like a slut!"
"Common Guren..." Shinya patted his back. "At least it worked! You should have
seen poor Mika when Shinoa told him about Ferid!" the white haired beta
chuckled. "I haven't seen someone run that fast in ages!"
Shinoa buffed her nails. "Fair warning Ferid, you probably going to have to
dodge an ass beating in the near future!"
"I look forward to it!" Ferid grinned.
Guren stared down the group in the conference room as they waited for Krul and
the others to make their appearance. Shinoa had secured a spot for herself in
Krul's army doing intelligence work, since she had turned out to be an
incredibly useful spy. She had information about Kureto that even Shinya didn't
know about. And this meeting was called to relay that information.
But for now? They were content with gossiping. And plotting Mika and Yuu's
future.
"So what happens after Yuu gets out of the clinic?" Shinoa asked Guren. "There
aren't many omega's in the military here."
"Have you MET my son?" Guren asked incredulously.
Shinoa shrugged. "Point taken."
"Besides," He continued. "If Krul's plans to make Mika an officer go through,
it'll be impossible to keep them separated now that they're back together."
"And if Mika refuses the Military life?" Shinya asked.
They were all silent. Until Guren broke it with a heavy sigh of exasperation.
"Then I hope those two freeloaders have some kind of plans already."

"Are you sure you're alright Yuu-chan? You know I'm more than willing to carry
you!"
Yuu gave him an annoyed look. "Mika...If you attempt to embarrass me by
carrying me out of this place, I swear I will punch you in the head."
Mika pouted to hide his grin. "Whatever you say Yuu-chan..."
After an unintentionally prolonged shower that afternoon, Yuu dressed in his
remaining clothes that Mika hadn't shredded off of him. Zipping up his thick
winter jacket. His heat had mercifully ended that morning. Though, that didn't
make Yuu any less horny it seemed. And they spent most of their morning
'playing', and relearning each other's body and what spurred one another's
desires. Which was pretty much everything the other did. Mika suggested a
shower to get them both the cool off. Or else they would never leave this room.
But then Yuu got that mischievous look in his eyes that made the blond's
thoughts go blank...
"Hey, Mika, can I try something?"
"Hm?"
Yuu dropped to his knees and grasped the alpha's semi-hard length. "Y-Yuu-
chan!?" he jolted in surprise.
"I never got to taste it before..."
Mika's jaw slackened at both what he said, and the enticing view. Those bright
eyes peering up at him and the omega's soft lips so close to the head of his
cock. He watched in fascination as his length hardened and distended towards
those parted lips, as if reaching for them.
Mika bit his lip as he ran his fingers through Yuu's dark damp locks.
Wordlessly, he guided Yuu closer, committing every movement to memory as the
Yuu darted his his tongue out to tentatively lick at the slit of Mika's cock.
Mika gasped at the contact, causing Yuu's face mouth to spread into a wicked
grin. He did it again. Wiggling his tongue this time. Clearly enjoying the
power he had over the alpha in this moment from such a small act. He dragged
his tongue along the sensitive underside, kissing the tip as he pulled away.
Mika's knees almost gave out. Then he had a troubling thought that he had to
voice. "Yuu...w-where'd you learn that?" He breathed heavily.
Yuu blinked up at him. "From you, dummy."
'Oh! right...'
Yuu resumed his ministrations until Mika was trembling with the restraint to
stop himself from shoving his shaft down Yuu's throat.
"Suck on it, Yuu..."
Yuu gulped audibly, adams apple bobbing, looking somewhat at a loss. Before he
took nearly half of Mika's length into his mouth. His cheeks hallowed as he
sucked. Drool and precum dripping down his chin, causing Mika to buck into the
wet cavern with a groan. "Ah! Hah...more Yuu-chan!" Getting a thrill from the
omega worshipping his cock in such a way.
Yuu moaned around his length. Sending vibrations all the way to the base of the
blond's shaft and making his knot swell involuntarily. "F-fuck! Yuu-"
The omega bobbed his head on the slick flesh, working more down his throat with
each movement. His tongue swirled the tip every time his drew his head back-
Mika couldn't take much more of this. He fisted Yuu's hair to shove into his
lovers mouth. Yuu's nose brushed his base, and he heard faint choking noises as
the alpha came down his throat. Chocking and gasping on the thick liquid while
his eyes watered, Yuu pushed on Mika's quivering hips to withdraw his cock from
his dripping mouth-
~
"Mika?!"
"Hmm?" Yuu was standing by the door to the room impatiently.
"You coming?"
Mika blushed at being caught reminiscing. Scooping up Yuu's backpack before the
omega got the chance, he cleared his throat, "Y-yeah. Lets go." 'before I get
another hard-on and we're here for another hour.' Not that Mika would mind. But
he knew Yuu had been here for five days now, and was eager to walk around and
gain his strength back again. 'Stubborn omega...'
 
~
 
Mika had insisted on Yuu staying in his apartment. He had a lot of space in the
royals building, which by being Krul's adopted son, he had gained the
privilege. But he especially didn't want Yuu staying in his small dorm alone,
when he smelled of post-heat and mating. His scent alone could trigger an omega
into an early heat cycle if theirs was close enough. And as far as Mika knew,
no other omega's lived in the royals apartments. And alpha's knew better than
to come sniffing around an omega that smelled so strongly of their alpha. They
would give the couple a wide berth at Mika's place. Or so he thought...
On the way to his division, they were stopped by an alpha. Yuu recognized this
hulking redhead. 'Crowley' was his name.
"Krul Tepes requires your presence." The alpha intoned.
Mika pushed Yuu behind himself protectively, causing the omega to roll his eyes
at his overly protective nature. Crowley wasn't a threat. In fact, he kept a
respectful distance from their pair.
"I need to get my omega home. Now is not a good-"
"She requires BOTH of your presence." Crowley interrupted. Making Mika bristle.
The redheaded alpha's cape flurried as he turned on his heel to stride towards
the compounds main hall, where all the governing and military operation took
place. Seeing no other option, since Krul insisted upon it, Yuu and Mika
followed.
The entered the conference room where there was a large group waiting for them.
A majority of the people they already knew; Guren, Shinya, Shinoa, Mistuba,
Crowley, Ferid-'oh shit-'
"Ferid!" Mika sprang for the alpha.
"Oi! Mika, stop!"
Guren grasped the collar of Yuu's shirt to halt him. "Don't get in the middle
of it, idiot!" Guren snapped. "Unless you want to lose an eye!"
"Shut up Guren! We can't let Mika fight an elite! Ferid's too strong!"
"Have some faith in your boyfriend Yuuichiro." Shinya calmly stated as he rose
from his seat to join the rest of the spectators. Everyone was letting the
skirmish happen. Backing away towards the walls to let the alpha's duke it out.
"If you want to be with your alpha," Shinya continued "then you better get used
to things like this. Alphas fight other alphas all the time. It can be pretty
entertaining!"
"He's right Yuu." Shinoa wryly stated from his other side. "Alpha's enjoy a
good fight. But don't flatter yourself. Ferid wont kill Mika to win you. He's
not that interested."
Yuu's brows drew together in confusion. 'Then what was with the approach he
made earlier this week?'
Yuu gaped at the scene of the two alpha's fighting. Both of their eyes were red
with rage, though Ferid appeared calm as he dodged Mika's fists and kicks.
Jesus, Ferid was fast! Though he wasn't exactly fighting back. Instead, he
seemed to be enjoying himself as he sidestepped and blocked Mika's attacks.
Like he was toying with him. While Mika seemed like a rabid animal as he
snarled with his teeth bared.
Just then, the silver haired alpha leaped towards one of the wooden chairs,
hurling it at the blond's face. But Mika batted it away effortlessly. Sending
the chair flying into a far wall in a cloud of splinters and dust.
Yuu looked over at their friends. Shinoa looked annoyed, same as Guren and
Shinya. Mitsuba looked excited as she grinned widely at the scene. "Common!
Kick his ass!" she yelled. Yuu hoped she was rooting for Mika and not Ferid.
Then Shinoa yanked at her twintails to pull her closer to the wall as Mitsuba
started nearing the fight. Possibly with the intention to join it.
'Fucking alpha's...' They were supposed to be finished with the fighting. And
they definitely shouldn't be fighting one another. Even if Ferid DID creep on
him a few days ago. But honestly, Yuu didn't care anymore. He was tired and
wanted some goddamn peace.
"What the hell is going on?!" Everyone snapped their heads towards the small
woman screeching. Mika and Ferid paused with their hands on each other's
throats to turn towards her as well before the dropped their hands
simultaneously. Krul strode into the room, her scent emanating power and
ferocity. "Mika!" She snapped as she neared them. "Explain yourself!" Both
alpha's males dropped their hands. Ferid smirked like he won the fight. Mika
stared at the ground ruefully as he reigned in his anger and his rage subsided
enough for his eyes to revert back to their calm blue.
"F-Ferid scent marked my omega the other day." Mika stated as he met her eyes.
"My retaliation was warranted."
Krul cocked a brow, directed her attention to the silver haired man. "Ferid? Is
this true?"
He shrugged nonchalantly with his smirk still in place. "Well, our dear Mika
was in a mood all week. Letting his precious angel suffer. I simply offered my
assistance."
Mika glowered at the man. Palms twitching to strike him. "You knew he was
bonded to me!" He growled. "Stay away from him Ferid!"
"Well it's about time you took responsibility!" Ferid chuckled. "Don't worry
Mika-chan, I wont steal him away. Well, unless you abandon him completely. In
that case, I'll be more than happy to-"
"Enough, Ferid." Krul cut him off. "As you can probably tell from the smell,
they don't have that issue any longer. So keep your hands and mouth to
yourself."
Both Yuu and Mika blushed. Not aware until she mentioned it, that the scent of
the past day and night of mating had all but imbedded itself into their clothes
and pores.
Guren released Yuu's collar as if he'd just caught fire. "Ugh! Thank fuck I
cant smell it!"
Krul rolled her eyes. "Can we get this meeting started now? I have a lot to do
today."
Everyone took a seat. Mika and Yuu seated far from Ferid at the conference
table. Mika fidgeted anxiously. Wanting nothing more than to get Yuu home and
away from all of these other alpha's.
"First order of business. We have received information from Shinoa yesterday
about possible developments that could be happening with JIDA. Today, they have
been confirmed. With Kureto Hiragi dead, and Shinya obviously with us now,
command over JIDA has been passed to the Hiragi family's youngest brother
Seishiro Hiragi. He hasn't been involved with JIDA's agenda until now. And from
what Shinoa told us, he was distanced from his family ever since the death his
niece, Mahiru. Now that Seishiro has been forced into command, it is possible
that we have an ally in him. If we could get Seishiro on our side, he could
help us free the remaining prisoners and shut down their entire operation for
good."
Mika and Yuu shared a cagey look. How were they to know whether or not this
Seishiro was as vicious as Kureto was?
"We're deploying two spies who volunteered for capture to gather intel on
JIDA's new leader. Lacus, Renee?"
Two young men stood upon being addressed. The shorter man with purple hair,
Lacus, was an omega. And apparently the man with black hair and a stoic façade,
Renee, was his alpha. Mika bristled. It was cruel to send a bonded pair into
such a place! Yuu detected his fury and grasped his hand to calm him.
"These two have escaped from JIDA two years ago. Since they know the layout,
they will attempt to escape again within the year. Guren and Shinya erased
their records, and since Kureto and most of his soldiers died in the battle at
the airport, they wont be recognized. We also have a beta sentry working for
JIDA, much like the work Guren and Shinya did. They will ensure that Lacus and
Renee wont be killed, and they will help them escape."
"How could you let them do this?!" Mika blurted out. "That place is a hellhole!
And you expect them to go back in there for an entire year?!"
Lacus stepped forward to answer him. "We are fully aware of what we are getting
into. We escaped once before, and we will escape again. It should be easy now
that we have help. Besides, there's nothing they can do to us that they haven't
done already."
"Our plan is to negotiate with Seishiro. If what Shinoa said is true, and his
personal morals don't coincide with JIDA's agenda, we might be able to get out
sooner." Renee added.
'They're insane!' Mika thought. It didn't matter that Kureto was dead. It
didn't matter that Krul had a beta spy. JIDA's new leader could be just as bad!
He shared a look with Shinoa.
"From what I've learned of uncle Seishiro while growing up, he was always
distant and avoided conversations about JIDA propaganda. Even before my sister
died, he was reluctant to get involved with my father's operation. He's being
forced into it by my grandfather, the founder of JIDA. Defiance in my family is
punishable by death. But if he knows about us, I believe he will help us."
Krul nodded in acknowledgement. "Kureto wasn't exactly sane to begin with. From
what Shinya told me, Kureto had been taking injections of alpha hormones to
make himself stronger. The effects of it caused him to be overly aggressive and
dominant beyond his capacity. Reasoning with him was beyond my capability in
the past. But now we have a chance with Seishiro." She turned to the pair.
"Lacus, Renee, your bravery is honorable. We will do everything we can to make
sure your escape is successful."
The two bowed and left. Krul sighed heavily and finally sat at the head of the
conference table, attempting to mask her guilt stricken expression. And
failing.
"Now," she continued. "This brings us to our second order of business. Mitsuba,
the army needs strong alpha's like you. You possess leadership capability, and
a commanding nature. I would like for you to be a squad leader for a group of
new soldiers."
Mitsuba smiled widely. "Yes ma'am! I'd be honored!"
"Mikaela?"
The blond jumped when his name was called. "I would like to make you an
officer. As an alpha who is able to enter a rage state in battle, you have
tremendous strength. But that strength needs control. You will have command
over a battalion after extensive training. And Yuuichiro will be in that
battalion and under your care and supervision. Yuuichiro, for your bravery and
skill on the battlefield, I'm making you a sergeant. If you all accept your new
positions, training will start on Monday. If you refuse, you will need to find
work here at the compound and pay for your own apartments. Mikaela, your
current quarters are reserved for officers of the elites. Even as my adopted
son, I have to give that place to elite soldiers. There's no prejudice in this
establishment. Everyone has to work and earn their living."
Mika and Yuu were silent for a while. Contemplative. Yuu was the first to
speak. "JIDA has ruined so many lives. They nearly killed Mika and Shinoa. If I
can get the chance to get rid of more of them, then I'm in-"
"Yuu-chan!" Mika snapped. "Being a soldier is dangerous! I can't let you put
yourself-"
"Mika stop." Yuu cut him off. "I know you're trying to protect me. But I'm not
made of fucking glass! I have goals and wants, and what I want is to fight
against those bastards!" Yuu stood. "Krul, if I may, I would like to make a
request."
Krul inclined her head at him. Silently permitting him to speak.
"There are still children being abandoned or killed for being born a non-beta
over Japan and the rest of the world. With your permission, I would like to
retrieve the children out there. We could bring them here, open an orphanage
for them. Mika and I will run it and take care of them. We would be saving our
kind before JIDA can get their hands on them!" Yuu hoped his request spoke to
Krul's softer side. She gave up years of her life to take care of Mika when he
was a child after all.
Krul smiled gently. "I'll take it into consideration. Mikaela? Do you think
you're capable of something like this?"
He met Yuu's eyes. The determination in them was palpable. Yuu wanted this
dearly. And he wanted Mika to do this with him. He was afraid of his own
ability to control himself. His aversion to touching and his constant anger
simmering just below the surface. But when he was with Yuu, those feelings were
overshadowed by his love for this omega. By his desire to make him happy and
keep that beautiful light in his eyes. If this was what Yuu really wanted, then
he would do whatever it takes to help him achieve his goals.
"I am." Mika replied.
Krul looked vaguely surprised for a moment before she masked her expression.
"Alright. I will talk it over with the council, and reconvene with the two of
you after your training on Monday." She stood to leave. "You're all dismissed."
 
~
 
"Mikaaa!" Yuu whined from the bedroom. "We're going to be late! Let's go!"
It was their first day of training, and Yuu was eager to get to the sparring
grounds and practice. They received their uniforms the day before, but they
hadn't tried them on until that Monday morning before training. Yuu's was easy
to put on. He wore the standard soldier uniform; black button up shirt, white
jacket and pants with knee high boots and a white cloak with a hood. The layers
were thick and heavy, and everything was such a pristine white, he dreaded
touching anything in fear of getting it dirty.
"Why do I have to wear this stupid cloak anyway?" Yuu shouted to Mika in the
bathroom. "Won't it just get in the way?"
"That cloak is fire resistant." Mika replied "And it helps to keep your scent
contained. All of the omega soldiers wear them."
Yuu tsked. "Psshh. Whatever. It's stupid..." He trailed off when Mika stepped
out of the bathroom. Adjusting the officers broach at his collar and shifting
uncomfortably.
"What?" the blond asked when he noticed Yuu's jaw slacken as he gaped at the
alpha in open fascination.
Yuu cleared his throat. "N-nice boots..."
Mika looked down at the thigh high boots covering his legs. The officer uniform
was much more form fitting than the enlisted. And he only had a small cape over
his back. He suddenly felt very exposed compared to Yuu who was dressed in
layers. "S-stop staring Yuu-chan...it's embarrassing..." He blushed.
Yuu's lips quirked up at the corners. He walked towards the blond. A warm
feeling pooled in the pit of his stomach. "You look good Mika...." he breathed.
Mika bit his lip. Catching the scent of his omega's arousal spiking. "Yuu-
chan...we're going to be late, remember?"
"Hm..." Yuu ignored the alpha's statement as he reached for the waistband of
Mika's tight white pants. Tugging the zipper down to boldly grasp his cock.
"Yuu-" Mika gasped. "They'll scent us! They'll know-"
"I don't fucking care..." Yuu clutched at the front of Mika's shirt and crushed
their lips together. "You're going to fuck me with those boots on, one way or
another..." He whispered against the blond's mouth.
'Fucking hell...' Mika couldn't resist the omega when he spoke in such a way.
Yuu's clothing ended up in a pile on the floor, with only his pants and boots
still on and yanked down past his knees. Mika shoved Yuu against the wall. His
ass facing towards the alpha as Mika took him from behind. Clutching at his
hips as he thrust into him. Hard. Skin slapping. Yuu's demands for more and
harder echoing throughout the room as he gazed at the sight of Mika fucking him
in those boots. The view making slick trickle down his thighs. Which spurred
Mika further. The blond come completely undone. He could deny Yuu nothing.
~
They were twenty minutes late. And as luck would have it, Guren was in charge
of their sparring session for that day.
"God dammit you two! This is the army!" Guren shouted. Which didn't bode well
for Mika. But he couldn't do much to retaliate against the man, since he was
Yuu's father. "What in the hell was so important that made you twenty fucking
minutes late?! You missed the briefing!"
Some of the soldiers snickered. Causing Yuu and Mika to blush furiously.
Obviously they could scent them and knew what they had done.
Guren picked up on it. Almost immediately realizing why his soldiers were
snickering and why his idiot son and the alpha were so red in the face. "Both
of you are running laps after practice! Until sundown! Now fall into
formation!"
Yuu grumbled, but stood with the other soldiers. Mitsuba shot the two a killing
look.
"All of you are going to pair up and practice with the sword today. Ammunition
is a limited resource. Once the enemy runs out of it, being skilled with a
sword will come in handy. You will practice with blade-guards on your own
swords, obviously so you idiots don't go slicing off limbs and killing each
other! Now listen up for your assigned partner!"
Mika was paired up with Mitsuba. Yuu was paired with another omega with waist
length blue-black hair, named Asuramaru. The other omega was small. Very small.
Even smaller than Yoichi. Which he would have preferred over this small
creature, if only his friend wasn't on maternity leave.
"Common Guren!" Yuu shouted from across the yard. "Pair me up with an alpha!
You know I can handle it!"
"Shut up and spar! Unless you rather start doing laps now!"
"Grr..." Yuu clutched his sword with both hands. Staring down the small omega.
"Don't cry when I kick your ass!" With a yell, Yuu charged at the small omega.
Asuramaru twirled his own sword. His movements loose and fluid, sidestepping
Yuu's attack as he struck out, causing Yuu's sword to fly from his grip and
land a few feet from them. 'What the hell-'
Asuramaru pointed his sword in Yuu's face. "Dead." He smirked.
"W-what? What the fuck did you just do?" Yuu blanched.
"Pick up your sword. Lets go again."
Yuu gripped the sword hilt again. Squeezing the handle until his knuckles were
white. He charged Asuramaru again, attempting to strike at him from the side
instead of from above him. With a spin and a sweeping motion of the thin blade,
Asuramaru unarmed him once more. Yuu stared at his empty hands then back at the
small omega as he heard his sword clatter to the ground. "H-how?" Yuu
stammered. "How the hell are you doing that?!" He was dumbstruck.
"Your sword is a Katana," Asuramaru said with a bored expression. "Same as
mine. More specifically, they're Katate-uchi, and intended for one handed
attacks. Slashing and stabbing and such. You're holding it like it's a fucking
baseball bat." The other omega twirled his sword loosely, his wrist rotating as
the blade swung in a fluid circular motion, before making a striking movement
towards Yuu's face. Yuu glowered. "Again!" Asuramaru snapped.
Tentatively, Yuu picked up his sword. Suddenly aware of the eyes on him. His
face burned with embarrassment. He attempted holding the sword like Asuramaru
did, but it felt awkward. "It feels like I'm going to drop it when I hold it
like this though!"
Asuramaru casually twirled the blade again, strutting as he circled Yuu.
"Katate-uchi is best suited for quick, and silent attacks. You can remove an
enemy's head with little effort or strength. The blade is extremely sharp. You
don't need strength to kill an enemy with it, but you need skill. What us
omega's lack in strength, we make up for in speed and cunning. It's not a
greatsword or a longsword. You don't need to bash your opponent with it,
idiot!" He swung towards Yuu's neck, barely giving him enough time to block the
strike.
"It takes just a single movement." He slashed through the air again, aiming for
Yuu's legs.
He blocked the attack again, wrist vibrating painfully from the strike.
"Good." He continued circling him. "The only time you use two hands is when
blocking-" Another strike, another successful block. "Otherwise, your movements
should be fluid. Smooth. And without hesitation. Your sword should be an
extension of your arm. You can't drop your arm, can you?"
Yuu shook his head. Painfully aware that this omega's skill level far surpassed
his own. "Where did you learn all of this?" Yuu asked.
"My father was an alpha, he made weapons for a living before we were both
captured by JIDA. He taught me everything he knew about swords and how to wield
them. He was killed shortly after capture, but I managed to escape. And took
down six guards during my attempt using the skills he taught me. If you want to
fight, you need to have the know how. Shall we try again?"
Yuu nodded, holding his sword with his dominant hand. It still felt weird to
him, but he struck out anyway. Letting the movement carry itself as metal
kissed metal and the two blades sang off each other as it slid off of
Asuramaru's sword. But he didn't drop it.
"Better." Asuramaru said. "You want your sword to kiss mine when I block yours,
not punch it. It takes less time for you to recover from a kiss, than a punch."
He winked. "Lets continue."
About an hour into practice, just as Yuu was getting the hang of things, he was
hit with a mind numbing stab of pain in his stomach. Yuu doubled over with a
gasp, causing Asuramaru to stay his attack and study him quizzically.
"Yo, what the hell is wrong with you?!" He knelt beside Yuu, placing a hand on
his back. Heat radiated from him through his thick layers, despite the cold
air. "Are you going into heat?"
"N-no!" Yuu gasped out. "It ended five days ago! Ugh what the fuck!"
Mika ran over to the two, dropping to his knees to gather Yuu in his arms.
"What the hell did you do?!" the blond snapped at Asuramaru.
"Nothing! I didn't even hit him!" the other omega held his hands up in a
placating gesture. "He just collapsed! He just finished his heat cycle?"
Mika blinked at the boy before cupping Yuu's face to get him to look at him.
"Yuu-chan, what's wrong?!"
Yuu was breathing heavily. The pain dulled to a cramping feeling, but movement
made it hurt more. "I-I don't know...it feels like the pain I feel when I go
into heat, but without the sweating and everything. My stomach just fucking
hurts!"
"For fucks sake Yuu!" Guren bit out as he approached the growing group
surrounding his son. "All this for a stomach ache?!"
Yuu and Mika both glowered at the man, who's features softened when he saw the
stricken look on Yuu's face. Guren sighed. "Take him to see a doctor Mikaela.
And report back to me once he's released. You better not be dying kid!"
With an irritated huff towards the man, Mika scooped him up to carry him
towards the hospital.
~
Whatever pain medicine they gave to Yuu, he wished he could take it home with
him. Because holy shit that stuff is great! The sharp pains in his stomach was
reduced to a tolerable ache. Mika paced in the hospital room as they awaited
the test results from Yuu's blood and urine samples. "Mikaaaa...." Yuu whined.
"Will you sit down? You're making me anxious!"
Mika shot him a glare. "How can you expect me to just sit down?! There's
something wrong! You're in pain!"
"Mmm not right now I'm not! I'm feeling pretty good, so chill..." He smiled
crookedly at the blond.
With a heavy sigh, he sat down next to Yuu on the hospital bed. Rubbing his
face lovingly into his neck. "I'm worried about you, I can't help it Yuu-chan!"
Yuu carded his fingers through his alpha's hair, smiling against it as he
kissed the top of his head. He couldn't help but feel loved and protected when
Mika got like this. "I'm gonna be ok. Don't worry so much. It's probably just
from too much rough sex."
Mika snorted against his neck. "Yuu-chan! Christ, since when do you talk like
that?!"
Yuu giggled. "I think since those doctors gave me this morphine!"
The doctor came in then, clearing his throat when he wasn't noticed for a few
moments. Mika sat up, looking at the old man expectantly. Yuu sat up as well,
suddenly feeling nervous.
"We have your test results back." The doctor waved some paperwork in the air
before seating himself on the stool near Yuu's bedside.
"Give it to me straight, Doc." Yuu said. "Is it something serious? Am I dying?"
The doctor laughed lightly. The sound was warm and calmed Yuu's nerves. Though
Mika sat stiffly, holding his breath.
"Well...it is something pretty serious! But you're not dying." He smiled widely
up at Yuu and Mika. "You're pregnant!"
Mika and Yuu blinked at the man. Wordlessly. For a long time. Long enough to
make the doctor's brows draw together in confusion and glance between the two
boys.
Yuu parted his lips on an exhale. "..What...?"

See the end of the chapter for more notes
 
 
The doctor stood, awkwardly making his way to the door. The two boys were still
gaping wordlessly at him. "I'll just...give you two a moment..." He said softly
as he left.
The sound of the door shutting seemed to snap Mika back to reality. He turned
to his boyfriend who was still staring wide eyed in the same spot.
"Yuu-chan?" No response.
"Yuu...?"
Yuu tried to keep an open mind. He really did. Nobody had prepared him for
anything that had happened to him in this crazy world, and he took it upon
himself to be accepting of the changes in his life. Of him being an omega,
which he didn't know the meaning of at first. The heat cycles and sex life with
a male alpha lover. He never would have thought any of those things were
possible for him.
They were drastic changes in his life. Ones that he had accepted and embraced
because they were beyond his control. Being an omega was simply what he was. He
couldn't fight his genetics. And he had strong feelings for Mika that he
couldn't fight even if he wanted to. But he had come to terms with the thought
that he could never become pregnant. What's done was done, and he couldn't be
angry anymore over something he no longer had control over.
So he'd all but put it from his mind, and chose to focus and the things he
COULD do to regain some resemblance of control in his life. Like joining the
Military. Running an orphanage to help abandoned kids. Help rid the world of
organizations like JIDA. But now, any control over his choices for himself was
slipping through his fingers like sand. 'Open mind...?' At this point, his mind
was so opened that it had cracked. He was being hurled down another path in his
life that he had no control over and with no say in the matter.
How had this happened? Why was everything happening so quickly?! He needed some
time to fucking breath before the next thing happened!
He yanked at his hair in frustration. 'I'm not ready for something like this!'
He felt a surge of panic constricting his throat. And a fleeting thought that
he still had the choice not to go through with it, Which made him hate himself
for thinking such a thing...
"Yuu?" Mika moved to pull Yuu's hands from where it looked like he was about to
tear his hair out. "Are you ok?"
Yuu flinched from his touch.
"No!" he choked out. "I'm not!"
Mika paled at the sight of his despairing omega. His excitement over the news
overshadowed by how troubled Yuu seemed over this. "Yuu-chan, what's wrong?" He
spoke softly.
"I just...it's too much at once! I was told this couldn't happen! And now it
has! What the fuck?!"
Mika drew his head back, brows knitting together. "Are you...saying you're
unhappy about it? That you don't want it?!"
"I-don't know! I don't know how I feel about it right now!"
"Oh really?! Because from my end, it looks like you're miserable! If you're
thinking about getting rid of it, I wont let you!"
Yuu blanched. After his first heat, eliminating a possible pregnancy was HIS
idea! "You have no right to make that decision! Its MY body!"
"I earned the right to decide what happens with your body the moment I bonded
with you. You belong to ME!" Mika snarled, eyes glowing red in fury.
"Which, by the way, you made that decision without even talking to me first!
You fucked me and forced a bond on me, when I was vulnerable and confused and
didn't know what was happening with me!"
Mika paled even more. Because what he said was...true. He didn't ask Yuu if he
wanted to bond or not. He just acted on impulse and did it because he wanted
the omega for himself. But..."I asked you if you wanted to be with me after
that first time! And you said yes! So what's the issue here?! Do you regret
bonding with me?"
"Ugh!" You pointed an accusatory finger at the blond "You just don't get it!
That's not the point!"
'What WAS his point?' Mika was perplexed at his behavior. Especially when he
seemed so open to the idea of kids before. "I don't understand what you're
trying to say here, Yuu."
The omega drew his knees to his chest, burying his face in them. "I had
different plans. I wanted a choice in something. But now...It's like everything
that has happened to me has been pushed on me forcefully! And here YOU are,
telling me that I don't have another choice anymore!"
"NONE of us have a choice in a lot of things Yuu!" Mika yelled. "Do you think I
CHOSE to get captured and tortured? That I chose to be abandoned? Or even chose
to be born at all? I did a lot of thinking while I was locked away. Most of it
revolving around you, and what I would have given to go back in time and
changed my actions and stay with you that morning. About how much I wished I
could have had a family with you. When I learned Yoichi was pregnant, I was
jealous! Because all of those suppressed feelings came back, and I thought I
fucked up my chances with you. And if what Guren said was true, then this is a
miracle, Yuu-chan! And you're treating it like a curse!"
"Get out!" Yuu snapped.
"W-what?" "All of that was about YOU! YOUR wants and YOUR feelings and YOU YOU
YOU! This isn't about YOU! Get out!"
"FINE!" Mika slammed out of the room, so hard the door rattled.
Yuu jumped at the sound. Cupping his hands over his face. 'What just happened?
Why the hell did I say all of that?!'
"MIKA!" He yelled. Feeling tears threatening.
But the alpha didn't return. 'Fuck...' He didn't mean it. Any of it. He knew he
didn't. He had never lost control like that before though. And before he knew
it, the words were just spilling out like a geyser incapable of being
contained. He was scared. The thought of being pregnant was a lot less scary
than the actual reality of it. And he took it out on the one person he knew
would be their for him through this.
He took a few steadying breaths. He wanted to be a soldier, but he had wanted a
family with Mika as well. And the blond was right. It was a miracle,
considering his next to ZERO chances. And he had spoiled it. Had said horrible
things to his alpha who had already suffered enough. Who wanted a family with
him too. There was no reason why Yuu couldn't still have his goals AND have
kids.
Maybe being a soldier would have to be put off for a little while. But if Krul
gave her permission, he could still have the orphanage. And still help find the
abandoned kids. This war could last for years. Possibly decades considering
there was an organization like JIDA in almost every country. Which by being an
omega, he had years to spare. Could potentially outlive a young beta child if
he played his cards right. Krul was rumored to be in her 50's, yet she still
looked like, and had the energy, of a young woman.
Alpha's and omega's simply lived for a long time. And he was young enough to be
able to make choices and mistakes and establish himself as the individual he
wanted to become. 'Having a baby wouldn't ruin that...having a baby isn't a
mistake, planned or not.' He realized. It was scary as fuck. And he didn't know
the first thing about how this all worked for a male omega. But the silver
lining was, they were in a place now where they had help and resources and
everybody around him already knew how it all worked. And he had a man who loved
him and wanted to take responsibility. Who formed a life long bond with him
because he wanted to be with him for the rest of their lives. 'How many
pregnant teenagers could say that?' Yuu mused.
He felt a pang. Would Mika really still want to put up with him though, after
all the shit he said to the alpha?
 
~
 
'Damn that omega!' Mika cursed him.
He stormed down the halls of the hospital with every intention of leaving.
Yuu wanted him to go away? Fine! But he wanted to second guess Mika's love for
him and make him out to be some sort of prick that forced himself on him? Fuck
that! Yuu had wanted him too! 'I'm nothing like Kureto!'
The thought made him almost put his fist through a wall, until a young nurse
rounded the corner and gasped at the sight of him swinging a fist. He paused
midair. Red eyes blinking widely at her until he lowered his fist and
straightened. Hurrying towards the exit before he went into a rage and tore the
place apart.
'I'm done!' He thought. Yuu lied, he had strung him along and made him think he
wanted children with him. But when it became a reality, the omega second
guessed it. 'An OMEGA...NOT wanting children?; The two phrases didn't go hand
in hand. He knew that Yuu was different from the others, had spent his whole
life living a beta mentality. But this was just too much. This was the ultimate
slap in the face to Mika and omega's everywhere.
'How dare he...' He wanted to scream at the omega, wanted rage at him for being
so stupid. He wanted to disown him...
Once outside, Mika suddenly felt short of breath. He bent with his hands on his
knees to gulp breaths of air.
A smell wafted up from a food truck set up for lunchtime for the hospital
employee's. And he realized that Yuu hadn't eaten yet today.
No matter how angry he was, he instincts still felt the need to take care of
the omega-'No...this isn't instinct...' This was him. There was no voice
telling him what he should be feeling or that he needed to be with Yuu. He
wanted him. Wanted him so badly it hurt. Wanted to be selfish and have every
ounce of that thickheaded omega as he could get. Body, mind, soul...
'Shit...' He couldn't leave him. He couldn't abandon him or disown him even if
he wanted to.
"He's my mate..." Mika loved him too much to let him go. He couldn't even leave
this hospital. He promised himself he would never leave him again...
He went to the food truck. They were serving some kind of curry. 'Yuu loves
curry...' They wrapped it in a take out box to keep it warm, and he went back
into the hospital. Avoiding the curious eyes focused on him from the people who
watched him make a scene earlier.
 
~
 
Yuu was still laying in the hospital bed, his back turned towards the doorway
and curled in a little ball.
"Yuu-chan?" The omega's body flinched at hearing his voice, curling into a
tighter ball. 'He's awake.'
Mika shuffled his feet nervously. Hoping he wouldn't get thrown out again.
"I...uh...I brought you some curry. If you're hungry?"
There was a few beats of silence before Yuu sat up and turned to him. His eyes
were red and swollen. Like he had been crying. It made the blond feel heavy in
his chest. He silently went over to set the food box on Yuu's lap before taking
a seat in one of the chairs.
"I thought you left?" Yuu asked as he opened the box of curry. Swallowing back
saliva at the mouthwatering smell of food. He dug in hurriedly.
"I thought about it..." Mika said truthfully. "But I couldn't."
He heard Yuu sniffle and glanced up at him. Food half gone, the omega threw an
arm over his face. Obviously trying to hide his tears.
"Yuu-chan..." Mika sighed. The next sentence sitting heavy on his tongue. "I
know it's your choice. If you...if don't want this...I-I wont force you into
it..."
"No, Mika! I do! I just...I wasn't prepared for this kind of news. I'm fucking
terrified!"
'Yuu-chan? Terrified?' He was the bravest omega he knew.
"Yuu..." He went to stand by his bedside and wrapped his arms around him. The
omega clung to him, pulling him closer until the blond had to remove the
forgotten food from Yuu's lap so he wouldn't sit in it.
He'd never seen his boyfriend this broken. The omega sobbed against his chest
uncontrollably, pulling at Mika's shirt to get him closer. He kept his head
uncharacteristically low and submissive. And he found he didn't like it, he
didn't like seeing his omega grovel like this. He adored Yuu with all of his
stubbornness and his challenging eyes.
"Yuu-chan, calm down." He pulled him away but Yuu kept his head down. "Yuu!
Look at me!" He raised his face tentatively. "Yuu, I need to know what you
want! You say you want this but you're crying like you don't. Please, just tell
me the truth. I'll be with you no matter what you decide." Mika said softly,
running a shaking hand through his dark hair and kissing Yuu's forehead.
"Whether you want me or not, I'll always love you."
He heard Yuu's breathing calm. "I-I'm sorry. For what I said." Yuu hiccupped.
"I swear, I didn't mean it. I don't know what came over me." He smiled
sheepishly at the blond. "Too many feels, I guess. I don't know...But I know I
want to be with you. And that I want to go through with this. It's pieces of me
and you..."
Mika smiled. His mind wandering back to when Yuu first said those words to him.
"Pieces of me and you." He repeated, kissing him softly and slowly. Pulling
away to see the dazed look in Yuu's glossy eyes.
"Should I get the doctor, so we can hurry up and get the hell out of here?"
Yuu nodded. "Please! Let's get the hell outa here!"
 
~
 
They walked back to Mika's apartment hand in hand over an hour later.
Apparently Mika was full of questions for the doctor;
"Why couldn't I tell from his scent?" The doctor had said his hormone levels
weren't high enough to release the pheromones yet.
"Why was he having stomach pain?" Implantation of the embryo within a male
omega could cause sharp pains and cramping for the first couple of days.
"When can we know the gender and see it in an ultrasound?" Doctor's reply was
'in a week or two'.
'Weeks?!' That raised a question for Yuu.
"But...we just...ya know, 'did it'...barely a week ago! How the hell could you
know all of this so fast?!" The doctor had told him that, because of his omegan
genetics, and with the father being an alpha, the cell turnover rate for
creating a baby was much faster than two beta parents, or even a bet/omega or
beta/alpha couple. "You heal faster than a beta, therefore, you create life
faster. An alpha and omega pairs' term will be between 5-6 months."
'That fucking fast?!' He grasped Mika's hand for comfort. And didn't release it
until they left the hospital.
 
~
 
"I want to wait on telling Guren." Yuu said.
"Yeah?"
"Yeah...I need to figure out a way to tell him. I'm not sure what kind of
reaction to expect either."
Mika nodded. "Ok. But remember, once you start to emit pheromones, everyone
will know. He'll either find out from you, or from the others. I'll tell you
when I start to scent it ok?"
"Ok..."
In redemption, Mika hadn't argued much with Yuu about going back to training.
The doctor said it would be ok, as long as he took it easy. But considering how
Yuu's body type was much larger and stronger than an the standard omega, he
still had about a week of normalcy before he could start expecting pregnancy
symptoms and had to go on maternity leave. Yuu figured that would give him
enough time to straighten out his thoughts on how to inform Guren and the army
of the unexpected developments.
They decided that Mika would stay in as a non-deployable officer until the time
came for Yuu to rejoin the service. The Military here didn't make a habit of
separating an alpha from their pregnant mate. But Yuu would be damned if he had
to remain on bedrest! He would do whatever he could to stay involved and push
for his goals. At least, that was how he felt at the moment.
Thinking back though, he realized how his hormones had suddenly spiked. And he
felt a lot more emotional than he normally would.
"I'm sorry I ruined everything..." Yuu said quietly from Mika's side. Making
the blond halted to pull the omega into his arms.
"You didn't Yuu-chan." He said in earnest. But the guilty expression still
didn't leave the omega's face. "Are you unhappy?"
"No...I just feel weird. I can't explain it really." Mika looked thoughtful for
a moment, then grasped Yuu's hand to pull him in the opposite direction of
their apartment.
"Oi! What are you doing? Where are we going now?" Yuu whined. "I'm freaking
tired!"
"Don't worry Yuu-chan. I think you'll need this!"
 
~
 
Mika knocked on the door to an apartment Yuu had never been to. It was a nice
building. And from the spacing of the doors, the rooms were larger here than
the dorms Yuu used to be an occupant at.
The door to the apartment swung open. "Yuu-kun! Mika-kun!" Yoichi greeted
brightly, throwing his arms around Yuu.
He made an attempt to hug Mika, but the blond took a startled step back.
Clearly not okay with anyone touching him yet, accept for Yuu.
"Sorry Mika, I just got excited!"
Mika patted his hair lightly. "Its ok Yoichi. How have you been? Is Shiho
home?"
"We're great! And yes! Come in!"
Yuu and Mika followed Yoichi inside. The scent of the other pregnant omega
seemed to have a calming effect on Yuu as he gravitated closer to the boy. He
hadn't seen Yoichi since before his heat started. And now they were both
pregnant... Yuu felt the urge to tell him. To talk to him about everything.
Until Kimizuki emerged from the kitchen.
"Yo. What brings you two here? Haven't seen the idiot around for a while."
Kimizuki snarked at Yuu.
"Nice to see you too, telephone pole. More importantly, how in the hell do you
live in such a big place?!" Yuu gazed around at the spacious apartment. It was
almost as large as Yuu and Mika's.
"I'm working on the compounds software for it's security measures. The work I
do gets us this place. What have YOU done lately?-"
"Shiho! Don't be so rude! Yuu has joined the military with Mika, isn't that
right?" Yoichi prompted.
Yuu stared at his feet. Not comfortable with revealing what he had learned
today in front of another alpha for some strange reason. Kimizuki was his
friend. It shouldn't feel weird, but it did. Being around another alpha in
general felt uncomfortable. He leaned against Mika. Hoping the blond would
catch the hint, that he wanted him to do the talking.
Yoichi picked up on the awkwardness, and invited the group to come sit in the
living room. Looking at the pair expectantly as he sat next to the pink haired
alpha.
"Well..." Mika hesitantly began. "I think that Yuu could probably use some of
your wisdom, Yoichi."
Yoichi cocked his head curiously. "What do you mean?"
Yuu sighed, sensing Mika's discomfort to continue. "I-we...we found out today
that I'm...p-pregnant..." Yuu stammered.
"KYAAAA!" Yoichi squealed as he jumped up from the couch to hug Yuu. "Oh my
god! Now we can have playdates and everything, since our children will be born
around the same time, and be best friends and-"
"Yoichi, I think you're crushing him." Kimizuki deadpanned.
"Oh! Sorry!" Yoichi released his hold, letting Yuu gasp in a breath. But Yuu
couldn't help but smile at the boy's temerity. It felt good to have the omega
around him again.
"Come with me Yuu!" Yoichi pulled him to his feet and down the hallway where he
slid open a door to a small room. It smelled like vanilla and clean laundry and
another sweet, mellow scent that Yuu could only place as Yoichi's own.
The floor was covered in futons and cushions and the walls were aligned with
fluffy pillows. Soft blankets and even more pillows littered the space. It was
a nest. An amazing nest...And Yuu wanted nothing more than the burry himself in
all of the surrounding softness...
"Yoichi...w-why are you nesting? You're not in heat!"
"Nesting isn't only for that. Its for comfort. And this is an alpha off limits
zone!" Yoichi giggled. "You want to come in?"
 
Yuu looked down at his uniform he still wore. Slightly dirty from the sparring
earlier that day. "I-I don't want to mess it up. It's too nice in here-"
Yoichi fell backwards onto the plush surface. Pulling Yuu down with him. "I
enjoy rearranging it Yuu." the other omega said. "It calms me when I'm
stressing out."
Yuu turned on his side. "Why are you stressed?"
"Tch, how can I not be? I'm a pregnant male!"
Yuu's brows drew together. "But...but you've known you were an omega for a long
time right? Is this surprising for you?"
"It's surprising for anybody I suppose." Yoichi wiggled closer, seeking Yuu's
body heat for warmth and tugging at his cloak to let it fall loose about them.
"Even females are daunted by this kind of news. It's not like we had '101'
lessons on any of this. Instinctive drives are one thing. Actually knowing what
to expect when you're expecting is another."
Yuu smiled. Feeling more at ease to know that he wasn't that only one who had
worried thoughts about this kind of situation.
Feeling very warm amidst all the bedding material, Yuu removed his outer jacket
so only his thin black dress shirt remained. Then snuggled closer to the boy.
His scent was so inviting and comforting, that he couldn't help but bury his
face in the crook of the other omega's neck. Inhaling deeply. "I don't smell
any different to Mika..." Yuu mumbled against Yoichi's neck. "I'm afraid
there's something wrong with me. I wasn't even supposed to get pregnant,
Yoichi... What if this is just all a fluke?"
Yoichi shifted to open Yuu's collar and press his face against Yuu's neck in
return. "Mmm...don't worry Yuu. I can scent it."
"What? How?"
Yoichi giggled. Sending soft vibrations up Yuu's throat. "Because us omega's
just know when another omega near them is pregnant. We have a sense for these
things. Call it comradery maybe? But you have nothing to worry about."
They nestled in closer. The familiar bond Yuu had experienced during the time
he spent with the boy while Mika was missing, returned tenfold with this new
and developing life inside of each of them. Yuu had a bond with this omega. He
missed his touches, and felt an ache inside of him at the fact that he had
spent so many days away from his friend.
"I'm scared..." Yuu whispered.
Yoichi nodded. "Me too. But it's normal to be afraid over something like this."
'Sweet Yoichi. Always the voice of reason.'
"Hey Yoichi?" "Hm?" "Do you know what you're having yet?"
"Hm, yeah I just found out today actually. It's a girl! Though, I won't know if
she's alpha, omega, or a beta until she's born. We're naming her Shichi."
Yuu chuckled to himself. 'Like Shiho and Yoichi combined? How cheesy. But it
was cute'
"Maybe one of us will have an alpha and the other an omega. Then they could be
mates." Yuu reminisced.
It took a few moments to notice Yoichi grinning at him with such a sparkly eyed
look, that Yuu could hardly contain the laughter bubbling up in his throat.
"Heh, I would like that...Yuu..." Yoichi blushed brightly, and Yuu had the
sudden urge to kiss the boy. First with a closed lipped peck, that turned into
a longer and more languid meeting of their lips.
Strange feelings bloomed in Yuu's chest. A feeling of finality. Like they had
just sealed a promise between them. He hugged the boy tightly against him.
Confused at the strange emotion. It wasn't a feeling of arousal, or even a
romantic feeling. But more like he'd found something in another that he needed
and was afraid of letting go of. Not like the bonding he had felt with Mika,
but the inclination that Yoichi would forever be a constant in his life.
They pulled apart from the kiss. Yoichi's eyes seemed to swim as he gazed at
Yuu in open adoration.
Then somebody cleared their throat near the doorway, and both omega's heads
snapped in that direction to see Mika and Kimizuki blushing at the sight of
their omega's coddling and kissing each other.
Yuu expected Mika to be upset with the display. But he just seemed like he had
stumbled upon pornography with virgin eyes. Kimizuki? He was used to Yuu and
Yoichi's cuddling and kissing by now. Though, he still enjoyed the sight.
"So...um...its getting kind of late. You ready to go home Yuu-chan?"
Yuu smiled at Mika. His spirits lifted just from the short time he got to spend
with his omega friend. But now he was anxious to go home and turn one of their
spare rooms into his own nesting area. It may not be as perfect as Yoichi's,
but it would be his own. Maybe Yoichi could even come over to help tomorrow?
The boy helped his anxiety. And he craved the omega's attention.
"I'll see you later Yoichi!" Yuu got up. Waving goodbye to the sleepy looking
boy, then nuzzled Mika quickly before brushing past the two alpha's to put his
boots back on. Not noticing the quirked brows exchanged between the two
alpha's.
 
~
 
So I guess your time with Yoichi helped?" Mika asked once they were inside of
their own apartment.
"I guess I don't feel as freaked out anymore. So yeah."
"Mm."
"Is something wrong?" Yuu asked. Not understanding Mika's grunted reply.
"Heh...well..."
Yuu swallowed. Yoichi told him that what omega's did was normal! Why was Mika
Acting weird?!
"Its just...I've never seen two omega's interact the way you two do.
It's...strange."
Yuu paused as he took off his jacket. "Strange?"
"Not in a bad way." Mika reassured. "But you two are a lot closer than you were
before."
"Well..." Yuu scratched his head. "I guess he just kept me calm while you
were...missing. I'm very grateful for that. And he helped calm me today.
Is...is it wrong to feel a connection with him?"
Mika chuffed through his nose, pulling Yuu into a hug. "I heard your
conversation with him Yuu-chan. It's natural that you want to gravitate towards
another pregnant omega. Just don't make promises you cannot guarantee. Yoichi
loves you. And you basically bonded with Yoichi and sealed a betrothal between
our children."
"I...oh...shit-"
Mika laughed heartily. "Bond's are formed in many ways Yuu-chan. Obviously it
isn't like ours. But be careful. Luckily, Yoichi and Kimizuki are our friends.
Hopefully or kids will be happy with the arrangement."

One thing Yuu and Mika didn't bother to think about was a lie to tell to Guren
as the reason behind Yuu's hospital visit yesterday. So, Yuu fumbled to come up
with an answer when Guren questioned him that morning.
 
"Well, you look alright to me. What the hell was that all about yesterday?"
 
"Uh...well..." He could say it was nothing, and that it was just a stomach
ache. But then Guren might make him run laps for being late yesterday, or do
something equally as strenuous. When Yuu wasn't supposed to be doing anything
strenuous at all. "Ya see...the doctor said it was a...uh...."
 
"A hernia." Mika interjected.
 
'What the hell was a hernia?' Yuu wondered. "Yeah! That!"
 
Guren raised a suspicious brow. "A hernia?"
 
"Yep. So, yeah. No running or lifting heavy things and stuff like that..." Yuu
hoped Mika matched up the hernia symptoms with the pregnancy symptoms to make
his excuse accurate.
 
"How the hell did you manage that just from sword practice?!"
 
Yuu searched for a good answer. And found none. "Because...I'm a clumsy idiot?"
 
Guren stared blankly. "Well, can't argue with you there. Bring a written note
and the medical records to my office after practice. Now, fall in line!"
 
'Well shit...'
 
Mika went off somewhere to practice grappling with the other alphas, with
Crowley for their first rotation.
 
The omegas had sparring first, before they switched with the alphas to learn
grappling techniques. Yuu was paired up with Asuramaru again. He took a swing
at Yuu, a strong overhead strike which made Yuu's wrists ache upon impact with
his sword.
 
"Yo, go easier on me alright?!" Yuu snapped with a harsh whisper.
 
"I don't believe your bullshit for a second, you lazy asshole!" He accused as
he swung again. "You're walking just fine!" And another. "You think the
military is a fucking joke? Or that you get special treatment just because
Guren is your father or because you're fucking Krul's son? You make me sick!"
 
"Ow! Shit! That's not it, alright?!"
 
Asuramaru crouched, sweeping his leg to knock Yuu's feet from under him. He
landed on his back with a thud that nearly wrenched the air from him, holding
up his sword to block Asuramaru's next attack. The smaller omega straddled his
hips as they fought to push the swords against each other. Asuramaru clearly
had the upper hand.
 
"If you're this weak, then you have no business in the army." Asuramaru
sneered. "You're nothing but a selfish, entitled omega. You have no idea what
real suffering is! You're making the other omegas who want to be here look bad!
So go take your bullshit excuses elsewhere. You're not wanted here."
 
The smaller omega stood, and Yuu took chance to kick his own legs out from
under him. "Fuck you!" Yuu yelled, rolling over to pin the bastard down using
his sword over his neck. "You don't anything! You know nothing about me! So
shut your damn mouth!" Yuu's voice broke in the end. Giving his threat a lot
less of an impact. 'God dammit!' His emotions were running high again. The shit
Asuramaru said wouldn't normally affect him. But being the hormonal omega that
he was now, his words hurt.
 
"Tch, you gonna cry you little bitch?" Asuramaru grinned.
 
"Shut up." Yuu bit out through clenched teeth.
 
"Maybe you should go cry to your pretty alpha, I'm sure he'll coddle you-"
 
"Shut the fuck up!" Yuu screamed in his face. Making Asuramaru flinch slightly.
But he remained silent.
 
Yuu removed himself from his position atop the smaller male, sitting back on
his haunches as he leaned against his sword for balance. His burst of temper
made him sweat. He took a couple of steadying breaths. "I only have a handful
of days left here..." Yuu whispered.
 
Asuramaru sat up, looking at him quizzically.
 
"I know it seems like I'm being lazy, and that I'm a shitty soldier. That
wasn't my intention, and I really wanted to be part of this. I just...wanted to
experience it for a little longer. Before I had to go."
 
Asuramaru blinked at him. "So, why can't you stay in?"
 
"Tch. That's really none of your business." Yuu stood. "I'll go talk to Guren
and have us switch partners."
 
"You're pregnant aren't you?"
 
Yuu startled. Whirling towards the omega, who had a condescending grin on his
face. 'Of course he would know.' Like Yoichi had told him, they had a sense for
these things.
 
"Keep your voice down!" Yuu whispered harshly. Frantically glancing around him
for anyone that might have heard.
 
"Oh, so you're trying to keep it a secret? Why?" He stood as well. "Daddy might
not be too thrilled?"
 
"Shut up. It isn't that. Well...I know he'll probably be pissed. But...I just
didn't want to give up the army just yet. I needed some damn time to wrap my
head around it. Ok?"
 
"Not OK you idiot! Why would you risk yourself in the first place? I could have
seriously fucked you up if I hadn't scented it!" Asuramaru frowned.
 
Yuu raised a brow. "Why the hell do you even care?"
 
He shrugged. "I'm not completely heartless, you dick."
 
"Uh-huh..."
 
"I understand your motives I suppose. And I'll your secret for now. But you
should really come out with it soon, before somebody actually DOES fuck you
up."
 
Yuu supposed he was right. An alpha or a beta wouldn't sense it this early on.
If he had been paired up with one of them..."Alright. But for now, can you just
teach me some techniques instead of trying to hack me to bits? For fuck’s sake,
I can barely keep up!"
 
Asuramaru rolled his eyes. "Yeah, yeah. Let's get started then, you wimp."
 
~
 
At least the other omegas’ lessons were useful. Even though Asuramaru slowed
his pace to make sure Yuu could block in time, his arms were still sore. And he
felt exhausted. He didn't even bother to go back to the hospital to get his
records for Guren. He wasn't ready for him to know just yet. And as long as he
kept being paired up with Asuramaru, nobody else would find out either.
 
Yuu got home before Mika did and went to the spare room, where he had dragged
every pillow, cushion, and futon into, and flopped down onto the soft flooring.
Hugging the pillow Mika used for sleeping with to his face, he drifted off.
 
"Yuu-chan?" He heard Mika say. Over an hour must have passed because it was now
dark outside of his window?
 
"Hm?" He replied with a grunt, too lethargic to do much else.
 
Mika turned on the dim light on the table right inside by the door, encasing
the room in a soft as he stared at Yuu's limp body being smothered by all of
the cushions. He couldn't help but smile, wanting to join him in all that
softness. But this room was for Yuu. He needed permission. "Can I come in?"
 
Yuu rolled over to sleepily look at his alpha. He had changed into sweatpants
and a t-shirt and smelled fresh from the shower. His presence felt inviting.
"Yeah." He didn't really mind Mika coming into his nesting room. As long as he
didn't stink or mess anything up. It had taken Yuu hours to get things the way
he liked it. And he liked it best when the smell of his alpha lingered inside.
 
Mika crawled towards him on his hands and knees. "You're still in your uniform,
Yuu." He began undoing the many buttons and fastenings, stripping him down to
his underwear.
 
Yuu stretched, arching his back a groaning at the feeling of being free from
the heavy, constricting uniform. He sighed and pulled a blanket over himself
and Mika. "So...I may have a slight problem."
 
Mika blinked open his eyes. "Huh?"
 
"Yeah that guy Asuramaru, the omega I have sword practice with, well, he knows
now."
 
"So you're telling everyone now?" Mika sat up. An elated expression on his face
that made Yuu feel guilty for not wanting to tell anyone yet.
 
Yuu sighed again. "No, I guess he just scented it while he was trying to kick
my ass."
 
"He tried WHAT?!"
 
"Oi! I'm fine! He didn't do much except for knock me over."
 
"Then he's fucking DEAD!"
 
"Will you shut up? He's keeping my secret for me, and was helpful with training
after he found out."
 
Mika crossed his arms, growling low and bristling.
 
"I'm going to kick you out of here if you keep blasting aggressive pheromones
into my calm zone!" Yuu pouted.
 
Mika sighed, calming himself and running his fingers through his hair. "I'm
starting to think we should just come out and tell him, Yuu. I can't handle the
risk you're putting yourself in. I can barely concentrate during training
because I was afraid of exactly this happening. Do you really want to risk our
child just because you want some military experience?"
 
When Mika said it like that, it sounded incredibly irresponsible and dumb. But
that wasn't the only reason. "I just, don't know how to tell him Mika. I keep
thinking about what my mom would have done to me if this would have happened
while she was alive. I know Guren's different, but what if he disowns me
because of this?"
 
"Yuu-chan, he's not going to DISOWN you. And if he's really that pissed about
it, then he just won’t get the right to see his grandchild. Simple as that."
 
But Yuu still looked weary, hugging the pillow to him once more. "But...I want
him to see our kid. He was never there while I was growing up. I guess I'm just
afraid that he will be the same way with this baby..."
 
Mika was thoughtful for a moment as he gazed at his troubled omega,
understanding his fear. The lack of his father's presence really bothered Yuu.
Neither of them had been given a proper upbringing, and Yuu wanted their own
child to have one. To have a loving family to share life with. Mika wanted
those things too, but he didn't have the fear of being rejected by anybody he
cared about. Krul would be thrilled because their offspring would eventually
become the future successors of this compound long after Krul and Mika were
gone, if the blond decided to one day take over command for her.
 
But from how Yuu was brought up by his mother, it sounded to Mika as if Yuu's
mother thought of her son as a burden and regretted his existence. But Guren
had saved Mika from JIDA in order for them to be together. He kept Yuu alive
and safe all of these years regardless of what he was. Sure, he didn't expect
this to happen because he'd drugged Yuu for so long, but he must care about
family to some extent.
 
"Guren loves you, Yuu-chan. If he didn't, he would have tossed you away like my
parents did to me."
 
Yuu just blinked. Clearly trying to be stubborn about this still.
 
"Look, I'll give you until I can scent you. Which may only be a couple more
days. If you don't tell him by then, then I will."
 
"Really?!" Yuu perked up. "You'll tell him so I don't have to?!"
 
Mika pinched his brow. "Ugh, Yuu-chaaan...."
 
~
 
But apparently, the universe had others plans for Yuu. Because Mika could smell
the scent of his changed hormones that very next morning. He cuddled up close
to him in their bed and wrapped an arm around his middle, placing a hand under
Yuu's t-shirt against his bare stomach. He inhaled deeply at the omega's neck,
pupils dilated as he committed the scent to memory. Feeling a connection
stronger than he had ever felt before. The full force of the reality of it all
sunk in and embedded him with an overwhelming sense of protectiveness, as well
as a calmness and clarity that he hadn't felt before. He breathed a sigh of
relief. All the worry that Yuu might not be carrying his child, and that the
doctor had made some kind of mistake, vanished. Their mingled scent from their
bond seemed stronger when combined with this new one. And he just couldn't get
enough...
 
"Yuu..." He whispered. The omega would likely be disgruntled that he didn't
have more time. And that they had no choice now but to tell Guren and everybody
else. But he attempted to butter him up first. He nibbled at the omega's ear.
Earning a whine from his boyfriend.
 
"Mikaaa....Its still too early! Let me sleep..."
 
Mika chuckled and sucked softly on his neck until he left a small red mark. It
seemed to wake Yuu more.
 
With a groan, Yuu twisted around to lay facing him, blinking sleepy eyed like a
kitten. "Mnn, too tired! Please, just a few more-hah!"
 
Yuu gasped when Mika gripped Yuu's semi-hard dick over his underwear, stroking
languidly until it was fully erect and tenting his briefs. Yuu turned to his
back and stretched his arms over his head, parting his legs to give Mika more
access. The blond slipped the omega's underwear off completely. Precum was
already dripping from the slit and wetting Mika's hand. He felt his own shaft
twitching in anticipation, but this wasn't about him right now. This was just
for Yuu.
 
"Nnng! M-Mika! S-sensitive...I'm not gonna last very long if y-you keep doing
that!"
 
Mika smirked before hiking Yuu's shirt up. He swirled his tongue around a
nipple, making Yuu's hips jerk in reaction. 'He's sensitive there too.' He
suckled and nibbled until it was red and hard, then moved lower down his
abdomen, running his tongue over his sweet tasting flesh until he reached the
barely noticeable swell of Yuu's stomach that seemed to have popped up
overnight. Pausing there to pepper a few soft kisses onto it, making Yuu keen
and roll his keeps to get more friction on his aching length.
 
"Hah-uhnn...More Mika!"
 
The blond wrapped his lips around Yuu's flesh. His humming from the sweet and
salty taste of the omega's secretions caused Yuu to whimper.
 
"F-fuck me! Ugh...put it in!" Yuu arched sharply and writhed, but Mika stayed
his hips with a hand. He swallowed him deeper as he pumped his hand in time.
 
As much as he would love to ravish the omega completely and make love to him,
he feared his own lack of control. Feared hurting the baby if he took him like
he usually did. He was able to control his rage state better during sex, but
his aggression and need to pound into him? He didn't think he could. So until
he felt was able to-
 
He felt hot liquid spurting down his throat and as Yuu gasped and shuddered,
yanking the blond's hair to pull him off his now too sensitive cock.
 
"W-why-" Yuu rasped. "Why didn't-" Yuu was cut off by Mika nuzzling and sucking
his neck again. Not that Yuu was complaining, but he was super touchy feely
this morning. Usually Mika woke up distressed or distant from the dreams he had
almost every night.
 
"I love how you smell Yuu-chan..."
 
Yuu snorted. Mika's sniffing and licking tickled. "You smell good too..." He
paused. "Wait..."
 
Mika pulled back, smiling with glittery blue eyes. "Time to tell him, Yuu."
 
Yuu sighed. "God dammit..."
 
~
 
"Everyone's staring..." Yuu mumbled under his scarf.
 
Mika looked around them as they made their way to the Military sector, to catch
Guren in his office before training started this morning. Shooting daggers at
the other alphas who were looking at the pair. He grasped Yuu's hand.
 
"Just ignore them Yuu-chan. They're only curious." Alphas loved the scent of a
pregnant omega. It made their own instinct to breed spike and spurred their
desires to get close to the omega for another whiff. Mika would take a swipe at
anyone who got too close.
 
There weren't a lot of omegas here to begin with. They were a much more rare
species than alphas or betas. Whereas there were around a couple thousand
alpha's in this compound, the omega community here was only in the hundreds. A
majority of them were previous captives or had been abused to the point where
they were extremely timid and not interested in bonding.
 
For the umpteenth time that day, Mika counted his blessings that he had such a
fine creature as Yuu for his mate, and they were going to have a family
together. He wrapped an arm around this omega's waist, squeezing him closer as
they walked. "I love you..." He cooed against Yuu's hair. Making the omega
blush. His mate's scent was laced with uneasiness. "Everything's going to be
okay."
 
"I hope so..." Yuu grumbled. "I love you too." He hadn't seen Mika this
affectionate in so long. It was nice, albeit embarrassing, when they were out
in public like this.
 
Yuu stumbled when the reached the door to the base's administrative facility
where Guren and the other officers had their office. He nerves getting the
better of him, he froze in place. 'You can do this...just come out and say it.
There's nothing he can do to you if he's angry...' Yuu told himself. But his
feet stayed firmly planted.
 
"Yuu? Come on. Don't just stand in the doorway." Mika pulled him inside, making
their way to the elevator as quickly as possible to get away from the other
alpha's who paused to look at them once they scented Yuu.
 
Yuu heard the mumbling from the others as the door to the elevator closed;
"Wasn't that Lieutenant Colonel Guren's boy?" "He's an omega isn't he?" "He's
with that alpha, Captain Shindo right?" "Was their something strange about his
scent to you-"
 
'Shit shit shit!' "Mika," Yuu murmured. "Please, I need you to be the one to
tell him. I don't think I can do it..."
 
The blond looked down at Yuu's slouching form as they rose the elevator up. He
looked so despairing and nervous that Mika sighed in defeat. "Alright, Yuu-
chan..." If it helped them jump this hurdle more easily, then the alpha would
do whatever his omega needed of him. At least Yuu had worked up enough courage
to face the man.
 
The elevator doors opened to Guren's floor to his office. They approached the
door, and Yuu knocked lightly a couple of times. There was no response for a
few moments, making Yuu think that he had left already. Then Guren's shout of
"What is it?!" made Yuu startle. 'Fuck...' He was hoping he wasn't in...
 
Yuu and Mika entered. Guren was sitting at his desk, with Shinya perched off to
the side of it. The collar of Shinya's white officer's uniform was loose and
his cape was removed. As was Guren's, and his father's hair looked slightly
disheveled. A strange scent hit Yuu and Mika's nose, that smelled something
similar to that of desire...Mika and Yuu blushed slightly. 'What in the
hell...?'
 
"What the hell are YOU TWO doing here? And why aren't you in uniform?" Guren
snapped.
 
"I-uh..." Whatever Shinya and Guren were doing in here, they had obviously been
interrupted. Yuu tamped down the thought furiously. Hardly believing the
notion. 'Ugh gross!' He cursed his ability to scent people so thoroughly. He
did NOT need to be made aware of his father's conquests! "We...um...we need to
talk to you about something..."
 
Guren exhaled heavily. Clearly annoyed. "Fine. Have a seat. And this better be
important!"
 
They sat across from Guren. Yuu fidgeted nervously until Guren cleared his
throat, urging him to come out with it. "Well? Are you going to spill it? What
did you do now?" Guren looked suspiciously between the two. "You didn't
accidentally kill somebody, did you?" The question directed more towards Mika
than Yuu.
 
Yuu bit his lip, looking at Mika with pleading eyes. The alpha stood. Posturing
defensively in case the man decided to lash out towards his mate. He took a
deep breath. "We thought you should be informed that Yuu-chan is pregnant. And
we're keeping it. He will require a maternity leave and will not be able to
continue with his military training until after the child is born."
 
Yuu buried his face in his hands. Flushing bright red in embarrassment. He
waited a few moments for the yelling to start. But when he heard only silence,
he peeked up. Guren and Shinya were gaping at him with open astonishment.
Definitely not the reaction Yuu had anticipated...
 
"Is this true?" Guren questioned the omega. Shinya looked at the man curiously,
trying to gauge his reaction as well.
 
"Y-yeah..." Yuu stammered with an upward inflection to his statement.
 
Guren pinched his brow and sighed. "Christ, you kids...We've barely been here a
month! And already you're getting yourself into a mess?"
 
Mika growled low at his words.
 
Yuu bristled. "What the hell are you talking about?! I didn't do anything
wrong, and neither did Mika. And you're the one that told me that it wasn't
possible for me to get pregnant! So what the hell do you call THIS, Guren?!"
 
Guren stood, staring Yuu down incredulously. "I said it wasn't LIKELY. Not that
it was IMPOSSIBLE, you idiot. I still expected you to be responsible and take
proper precautions!"
 
"Well we didn't! And ya know what? I'm happy and I wouldn't change this even if
I could! So if that pisses you off, fine! You don't have to be involved in this
child's life! We won’t bother you-"
 
"Shut up." Guren cut him off, walking around his desk to stand in front of him.
Mika tensed, ready to attack the man if he hurt Yuu in any way. But Guren
simply pat the omega on the head, mussing his hair as he smiled down at Yuu
amiably. "Stupid. Do you really think I wouldn't want to see my grandkids?"
 
Yuu looked at him quizzically, shocked at Guren 's actions. "Well, I
mean...yeah. Kind of!"
 
Guren frowned. "Christ I'm not THAT much of an asshole you idiot!"
 
Yuu quirked a brow. "Then what was up with the third degree?!"
 
"You come in here like you're miserable and have your alpha spill the news for
you, I'm going to think you're pretty upset about the situation! Of course I'm
going to grill you for getting into something you don't want to be in!" Guren
sighed. Dropping his hand moving to sit on his desk to look between Mika and
his son who was ruefully staring at his feet. "But if you're happy about this,
then I wish you the best. I'll do what I can to help."
 
Now it was Yuu and Mika's turn to gape at Guren in open astonishment.
 
"Uwaah Guren! You're such a softy!" Shinya playfully slapped Guren on the back.
 
Guren shot the white haired man an annoyed look. "Shut up..."
 
"So what should we call you? Hmm?" Shinya chuckled. "Papa Guren? Grandpa Guren?
Gramps? PopPop? Oooh! I know! How about-"
 
"How about shut up?" Guren was blushing. Which was an amusing sight for Yuu. He
couldn't help but snort out a laugh.
 
"Anyway!" Guren continued. "Boy or girl? Do you know yet?"
 
"Um...we're supposed to find out next week." Yuu replied.
 
"Great. I'll be there."
 
'Oh jeez...'
 
~
 
Now was the task informing the rest of his friends. Krul wouldn't get to find
out until she returned from her trip to the mainland. Mika had talked to Shinoa
in her office alone, telling her to get Mitsuba and some to Yoichi's house
after training. She suspiciously complied. Wondering what the hell this was all
about.
 
Yuu was currently at Yoichi's house. They had went over to their place after
talking to Guren because Yuu was craving the other omega's companionship, and
needed to vent to the boy. And even though Shiho was currently at work, and
therefore didn't have a say in the matter, Yoichi had told them that they were
welcomed to hold the meeting at their place after Shiho got home.
 
Mika was left wandering the compound until then. It was bad form and
disrespectful to be in another alpha's home while he wasn't there. Even if Yuu
was with Shiho's omega, both alphas should be present out of respect, or no
alphas in the home at all.
 
Mika found himself in the commissary, picking out snacks that Yuu might like
and browsing the aisles until he came upon the section of toys and other baby
items. He stared at the assortment of the colorful items, musing about what
their own child would like and mentally picking out soft pink and purple
blankets if they had a girl, or the green and blue ones for a boy. He felt a
tender and giddy feeling blooming in his chest at the prospect of spoiling
their child with anything and everything they could ever want. It didn't matter
to him what they had. Boy or girl. Alpha or omega. As long as they had Yuu's
pure and goodhearted nature...Mika ran a hand over his face. Almost embarrassed
at his own thoughts and how sappy he was. 'Fuck, I've got it bad...'
 
After stashing his purchases at home, he waited inside the lobby of Shiho and
Yoichi's apartment building for the other alpha to return. He hoped Yuu's time
with Yoichi was preparing him for the possibility of Shinoa and Mitsuba's
obnoxiousness.
 
~
 
"I think it's great how well Guren took the news!" Yoichi said through a
mouthful of chocolate. The two omega's were snuggled close together in Yoichi's
nest, which seemed to have gotten more comfortable after the boy had pleaded
for more softness and items since the other day. He now had a short chabudai
table to eat on with even more cushions around it, and a large flat screen TV
mounted on the wall which was currently playing a DVD of one of Yoichi's
favorite Ghibli movies. Yuu could almost purr in content over how comfortable
he felt here. The stress from the day all melted away as soon as he burrowed
himself in the soft comforters. Though, he did covet the luxurious comfort of
his nest. He'd have to ask Mika if they could go and buy more stuff for his
room.
 
"Honestly, I was expecting Guren to scream at me or something. He seemed kind
of mad at first, until I told him I was happy."
 
Yoichi turned to him, resting his head on his shoulder. "So you ARE happy about
it?"
 
Yuu closed his eyes, smiling to himself. "Yeah...it's strange. I woke up with
morning feeling more optimistic. Well, until Mika started touching me and all
that. He wouldn't stop scenting me either."
 
Yoichi giggled. "Shiho's the same way. Most days he just can't keep his hands
to himself. Then I have to lock myself in here just to get some peace!"
 
"Hmm..." Yuu was thoughtful for a minute before he hesitantly asked "Do you
two, still...you know?"
 
He giggled again. "You're pregnant and you still can't say the word sex?"
 
Yuu snorted, throwing an arm over his face. "I guess so."
 
"Are you this much of a prude around Mika while you're fucking?"
 
Yuu instantly turned bright red. "Jesus, Yoichi!"
 
"Well? Are you?"
 
"N-no...Its just awkward around other people I guess..."
 
Yoichi sucked on his neck, causing Yuu to shiver. His skin was so much more
sensitive than it used to be. "You don't have to feel awkward around me, Yuu-
kun. I feel like I can tell you anything!"
 
"Then why are you avoiding the question?" Yuu smirked.
 
"Heh, you got me there. But yeah, we 'do it' every day. Sometimes multiple
times a day!"
 
Yuu blanched. He couldn't really see Yoichi being that sexual of a person.
"Wow..."
 
Yoichi sat up to look at him. "What?"
 
"Nothing." Yuu bit his lip. Thinking back to how Mika not wanting to have sex
since they'd learned they were expecting. He was extremely affectionate and
touched him constantly. But refused to go anywhere near his entrance, even when
Yuu had begged.
 
Yoichi cocked his head. "Why do you ask, Yuu?"
 
"Well...Mika hasn't wanted to...have sex with me...Since we found out. I know
it's only been a couple of days. But he still likes touching me and doing other
things with me. So why won't he go all the way?"
 
Sensing Yuu's sudden distress, he released a purr the vibrating his entire body
as he wrapped himself around Yuu, making the other omega sigh and purr back.
Yuu instantly felt relaxed again. "Yuu, he's probably just afraid of hurting
you and the baby. Just talk to him about it. He won't hurt it unless he's
rough. If he's rough with you, his has to learn to be more gentle."
 
Well, that probably explained it. Mika tended to be pretty animalistic during
sex. Yuu groaned in frustration. If Mika didn't learn to ease up, did that mean
he'd have to go the next five months without it? He got a foreboding feeling at
the thought. He enjoyed sex too much to give it up for that long!
 
Both omegas stilled at the sound of the door opening. Hearing both Shiho and
Mika conversing as they walked in, followed by Mitsuba's high pitched tone and
Shinoa's wry one.
 
As soon as Yuu and Yoichi emerged from the nesting room, Shinoa literally
fucking jumped for joy.
 
"Ahah! Holy shit! Cherry boy is knocked up too?! I can't freaking believe it!"
She hugged him tightly.
 
Yuu jolted in surprise. "Oi! How did you know? You can't smell it!"
 
"Oh come on Yuu, I'm not idiot. As soon as Mika said you guys wanted to tell us
something and to come to Yoichi's, I put two and two together. It doesn't take
rocket science to figure it out." She turned to Mitsuba. "Ha! You owe me twenty
bucks!"
 
“Twenty bucks for what?” Yuu asked incredulously.
 
“We made a bet on whether or not this was the reason for our little meetup.”
The beta girl chided.
 
“Tch.”
 
Mitsuba crossed her arms, giving Yuu a hard glare. "What the hell were you
doing at sword practice when you're pregnant? Idiot!" Her own alpha instincts
to protect the pregnant omega was affecting her as well. Albeit, in a much more
off putting way.
 
But it still made Yuu smile. "Worried about me Mitsu? That's not like you."
 
Mitsu rolled her eyes. Plopping down on the couch next to Shiho. "If Shinoa and
I are going to be aunts, then it would be pretty shitty of us not to care about
our nieces or nephews or whatever."
 
Yuu blinked. "Aunts?"
 
"Well ya!" Shinoa chimed in. "Who else better to babysit your guys' little
smols than us?"
 
"And since when were you and Mitsu an 'Us'?" Yuu's nostrils flared at the
strong scent of Mitsuba's strong alpha pheromones smothering Shinoa's subtle
beta smell.
 
"You've kind of been out of the loop for a while." Yoichi said to Yuu.
 
"Huh?! You and-and Mitsuba?! When the hell did that happen?" Yuu asked. Mika
didn't seem surprised either. And he felt a pang at how distant they had all
seemed.
 
Mitsuba blushed. "Don't make it awkward, Yuuichiro. Just because she's a beta
doesn't mean I can't feel anything for her..."
 
"Awe...Mitsu! Don't be embarrassed!" Shinoa teased. "I AM pretty great. How
could you ever resist?"
 
There was still so much about his friends he was discovering. But looking back,
Mitsuba was always close by Shinoa. And held her so dearly when she was
rescued. All of that had slipped past his notice before because he was so
caught up in Mika and their own trials. But now, he was painfully aware of how
much more depth there was to their own lives. This was the first time since
Shinoa disappeared that they were all together again. And it made him feel
choked up. These people were his family. They cared about him enough to want to
be his child’s aunts, Yoichi wanted to bond their two children if they were
able to, which meant Shiho, too, would forever be in his life and help protect
all of them. And he had Mika as a mate who he was crazy in love with. Even
Guren, and if his suspicions were correct, Shinya, were supportive and wanted
to be part of it all. He never understood the notion of a true family until
this moment. This was where he belonged. For the first time in his life, he
felt he had a true home.
 
~
 
A week and a half later, Yuu lay on the hospital bed. Mika, Krul, Guren and
Shinya also occupied the room. They were all waiting to see if they were having
a boy or a girl.
 
Krul and Guren had both argued back and forth about which gender reigned
superior. Krul was hoping for a girl. And of course Guren wanted a grandson.
Yuu and Mika didn't care either way. And their squabbling was starting to grate
on their patience.
 
Everyone quieted when the doctor came in. It was comical to watch their
childish arguing halt to make themselves appear as dignified adults.
 
The doctor lifted Yuu's shirt, making the omega flush in embarrassment when the
small baby bump was revealed. Guren appeared uneasy. 'Ya Guren, I already
fucking know how strange this is! Thanks!' Yuu mentally cursed him. Fuck, this
was awkward.
 
Everyone stared at the monitor as the technician maneuvered the ultrasound wand
around to try to get a good viewing again. His troubled look heightening Yuu's
anxiety. 'Why the hell is he looking at it like that?!' He looked at what the
technician and the doctor were seeing on the screen. Trying to figure out what
the hell he was looking at. Then he saw a strange shape. Was that the baby? It
looked like a patch of blobs.
 
"Well...this is surprising..." The doctor said. Hitting a few buttons on the
keyboard, the image zoomed in closer.
 
"What?!" Mika said with a panicked tone. Squeezing Yuu's hand. "What the hell
is so surprising? What's wrong?!" His worry was palpable and Yuu started to
panic too.
 
The doctor cleared his throat. "Well it certainly isn't bad news! The gender is
male."
 
Guren made a triumphant sound, causing Krul to roll her eyes at his childish
behavior.
 
The doctor pointed to the screen again. "But, as it turns out, there's two of
them!"
 
Yuu and Mika gasped simultaneously.
 
"Two?!" Yuu squeaked.
 
Mika squeezed his hand harder. But Yuu hardly noticed. Too busy gaping at the
screen as he started to make out two distinct images of the alien looking life,
or lives, inside of him. 'Holy shit...'
 
"I've been doing this for 50 years, and I haven't seen twins from an omega
since I first started this job! It's very uncommon, but there they are! Good
thing you aren't very small, or else this would be a lot harder on your body.
But I would still recommend a C-section when the time comes for delivery.”
 
Yuu could only nod dumbly as Mika rained kisses all over his face and neck.
 
"Hah! Good job Mika! That's my boy!" Krul grinned.
 
"He didn't get it from you! It's likely MY strong genetics playing the biggest
part in this." Guren countered.
 
"Kyaa! Double trouble! Congratulations you two!" Shinya smiled brightly.
 
Yuu paled to a ghostly white. His nerves getting the better of him. "Um...I
think I have to throw up."

Cruelty corrupted Mikaela’s subconscious as he twisted the blade in the JIDA
soldiers stomach. Sanity faded into the background. He wanted to cause pain,
and he smiled as the man writhed and begged while lying in a pool of his own
blood. The crimson liquid reflected the soft glow of the city lights in the
most mesmerizing way…
 
Mikaela’s mouth watered, and he released a contented sigh through parted lips.
He knelt closer to the man impaled on his sword, and had a moment of vague
awareness as he thought; ‘Yuu-chan can never see this side of me…’ The killer,
the monster, the psychopath, some would say. Nobody noticed the torment. He’d
hidden it beneath the surface well, only slipping up upon waking in the morning
from another harrowing nightmare. Then, Yuu would question his solitariness
while Mikaela mentally rebuilt his walls. Trapped was the beast that had
attempted to break free throughout his slumber once again. It was a precarious
way to go about living his life. But it was the life he lived; constantly
struggling to reign in his rage and keep a calm and peaceful facade.
 
It was becoming easier, but with no outlet for his madness, it had felt good to
kill again. His teeth felt sharp in his mouth, jaw slackening to avoid himself
as a line a drool trailed from the corner of his lips. Mikaela leaned in closer
with a menacing snarl at the dying man gaping in horror-
 
He felt a hand crack along his cheek, causing his head to whip sideways so
fast, he felt his neck bones pop. Fingers dug into his cheeks directly after,
meeting large red eyes piercing into him.
 
“Mikaela!” Krul yelled, jostling his head to shake him back to reality. When he
evinced no reaction, she backhanded him and blasted her pheromones into the air
preeminently to assert her force.
 
Finally he blinked powder blue eyes in comprehension, jumping back when he eyed
the scene before him. He remembered what happened when he went into rage, but
looking at the aftermath with a mind unmuddied by that haze was still daunting.
 
“What have I done…” He didn’t want to be this way. He didn’t want to enjoy
another’s agony as he killed them! He was going to be a father soon. How could
he face Yuu-chan and their sons once they were born, if he had to come home to
them after doing something like this? He covered his mouth and nose with a hand
to stifle to coppery scent of blood.
 
“You did well Mikaela” Krul lamented.
 
Mika shuttered out a breath as he responded. “Good? How is this good? This is-
is…”
 
“Protecting your family.” She adlibbed. Her eyes roamed over the handful of
soldiers that Mikaela had slaughtered. They all died fairly quickly, save for
the man Mikaela had tormented when his rage began taking him completely. He’d
control it better with age. Krul was confident in her adopted son. And she had
dealt with the same issues back when she had been as young as he was. When she
had to fight for her freedom and her life. Back when she had gotten so close to
killing Kureto. Though, she hadn’t been strong enough.
 
But Mikaela had. And he had the ability to completely let go of inhibitions and
let his rage consume him. It was dangerous, yes. But he was able to reign it
in, which required a strength not a lot of alpha’s possessed at such a young
age.
 
It wasn’t easy. It never would be. Taking somebody’s life was a serious action
when you still had your humanity intact. But it had to be done. It came with
being a soldier. Entering a rage state made the job easier to carry out, but
the guilt would remain long after. Granted, these men were JIDA, but they still
likely had families. And were likely all brainwashed into carrying out their
orders to the letter. This time, JIDA had tried to raid an Anti-beta run bar.
Krul’s squad had cut them off, chasing them down into a back alley where
Mikaela had managed to finish a majority of them off.
 
And he had done well. Not one JIDA soldier escaped. They couldn’t spare any
mercy for them, as it was a luxury they couldn’t afford. By showing mercy, she
could risk her compound being infiltrated. She always held the fear in the back
of her mind that they would gain intel on their location. And she was
constantly scanning the horizon for an imminent airstrike.
 
She and her soldiers needed to be cold, calculating, fearless, and even
ruthless when it came to dealing with JIDA. They had to protect their own.
Nobody else was going to do it for them.
 
“Don’t feel ashamed for torturing that man.” Krul told him. “For all you know,
he would have hurt your children worse.”
 
He turned to her, clenching his jaw and eyes flickering at the mere mention of
his family being harmed.
 
“These soldiers are our enemies Mikaela. Worry about how you killed them later.
The important things is this: they’re dead and you’re not. Focus on the rest of
the mission.” They still had rations and other provisions to acquire.
 
Even though she was chastising him, the fact that he still felt guilt after
killing meant he still had his humanity, even after all he had been through.
She supposed she could partially thank Yuuichiro for keeping him grounded.
 
Mikaela nodded shakily, but steeled his resolve. He flung the blood from his
sword before sheathing it.

“For fuck’s sake Mitsuba! Have you ever baked anything a day in your life?!”
Yuu coughed from the smoke billowing from his oven. Shinoa was fanning at it
frantically with a dishtowel.
 
“I don’t see you in here trying to make anything!” Mitsuba quipped as she set
the charred cookies on the stovetop.
 
“That’s because I know I can't!” Yuu argued. “At least I know where I stand.”
 
Yoichi sighed in resignation. “I’ll go open some windows.”
 
Yuu had invited the two girls over today, mainly to help him and Yoichi out and
make them things when they were hungry. Kimizuki worked every day, so he would
usually bring Yoichi over, as per Yuu’s request, while Mika was away at
training during the day. But for the past two days, Yuu’s alpha had been away
on a mission with Krul and wasn’t due to return until tomorrow.
 
Now he was seriously regretting his decision in having these women over. But he
really didn’t like being alone. Himself and Yoichi had become too sluggish to
do much for themselves recently. With only little over a month left in their
pregnancy, simple tasks became a struggle. Yoichi was faring better than Yuu.
He was still able to run errands around the compound and keep things cleaned
and organized. Yuu on the hand, with his belly feeling heavy from the twins,
grew tired more easily. And while he was home, he had zero energy or desire to
clean or cook anything. It just wasn’t how he was. Mika usually cooked for them
both and Yuu helped him keep things in order. But him doing those tasks himself
didn’t seem attainable.
 
Hence, the current occupancy of his home. Which he now found out that the girls
couldn’t cook for shit. ‘Well there goes that plan.’ Now he had two imbeciles
trying to burn down his kitchen.
 
“Here.” Yoichi amended. “I’ll worry about the baking, you two go...elsewhere…”
He said this with such a sweet smile, that Mitsuba and Shinoa simply pouted and
did as they were told.
 
Yuu found it almost comical if it wasn’t for the threat of a god damn fire
earlier. He perched on a barstool and leaned on the counter to watch Yoichi in
the kitchen tying an apron around himself. How the boy still had energy, Yuu
didn’t know. But he was grateful for his help. He rested his warm forehead on
the counter as he listened to the commotion from the girls in the spare room.
Likely trying to piece together the cribs Guren and Krul gave them. Originally,
both grandparents had presented them with two. Yet Krul and Guren had argued
relentlessly about which crib reigned superior. So Yuu and Mika had accepted
all four of them. Giving the extra two to Yoichi and Kimizuki, and keeping one
of the cribs from Krul and one from Guren. Trying to keep things fair between
them. He was tired of their bickering.
Yuu huffed. At least his friends were being helpful. Or trying to be. Usually,
Mika didn’t allow other people in their apartment. But Yuu needed them. Even
though having another alpha like the hotheaded Mitsuba in their home would
likely irk Mika, yoichi was here with him. And apparently Mitsuba and Shinoa
were an item now. Whatever that meant. But they were together now. Shinoa even
bared a claiming mark on her neck. An alpha bonding with a beta wasn’t common.
Especially with a female beta and female alpha. ‘The heart wants what the heart
wants, or whatever.’ Yuu supposed. As long as they were happy together.
Hopefully Mika wouldn't try to go and kick her ass upon smelling her here when
he got home.
 
Setting the cookies on the table, along with popcorn, fruit and other snacks
Yuu and Yoichi might crave, they all settled in the living room to watch more
of Yoichi’s anime collection. Yuu had never been into anime. Mainly because he
mother had never let him watch it. They were currently watching some show
called ‘Attack on Titan.’ Which Yuu thoroughly enjoyed, and found he somewhat
related to the main character. Promptly trying to ignore the argument between
Mitsuba and Shinoa on who the better ‘ship’ was, between Eren and Levi, or Levi
and Erwin. Yuu rolled his eyes. Although, he secretly had a ship of his own.
 
“Sooooo……” Shinoa turned to Yuu. “We know Yoichi’s baby name. Have you picked
them out for your twins yet?” All eyes turned to him. Yuu hadn’t really
expected anyone to ask. And much to Yoichi’s surprise, Yuu hadn’t told him.
 
“Um...yeah….” Yuu mumbled around a mouthful of cookies. Then continued stuffing
his face as everyone stared at him expectantly. He didn’t know if he should say
anything without Mika here or not. Then again, they had never agreed the names
should be a secret from their friends.
 
“Come on, Yuu!” Yoichi prompted. “I told you Shichi’s name! I’m curious to know
which name I’ll be associating with my daughter some day!” He laughed
lightheartedly at Yuu, though there was something behind his statement which
Yuu couldn’t place.
 
Yuu sighed. “Well...We decided on the name Kai 改 for a Japanese name, and Yuri
for a Russian name, since Mika is half Russian.”
 
“Awe! Yuu-san is blushing when he talks about his babies! How cute!” Shinoa
sang.
 
Yuu glowered. “Shut up.”
 
“Well I think they’re great names. Tell Mika he did a good job.” Mitsuba added.
 
“M-Mika?! I helped too you know!”
 
MItsuba snickered. “I don't believe you acquire that ability Yuu.”
 
“In my own house.” Yuu deadpanned. “Really Mitsuba?”
 
“Okay the which name did you think up Yuu-san?” Shinoa chirped.
 
Yuu broke the cookie beneath his fingers into pieces, towing with them. “Kai.
Kind of sounded like part of Mikaela’s name. So…”
 
Nobody picked up the conversation after he had trailed off, which made Yuu look
over at them. All three sets of eyes glued to the TV. “You guys are dicks!”
 
“Yuu…” Yoichi began. “We’re worried about you.”
 
Yuu heaved his body into a sitting position as best he could. “What? Why?!”
 
Shinoa and Mitsuba shared a look Yoichi just grasped his hand.
 
“Mitsuba has...heard some rumors...about Mika.” Shinoa said. “She hasn’t seen
it first hand, but the battalion he runs has seen in on missions before. He’s
um…” Shinoa trailed off and looked to Mitsuba, hoping she would continue.
 
She did. “He has an issue with going into a rage every time he’s in a fight.
And we’ve been wondering if he...acts that way at home here with you?”
 
Yuu blinked at them all. Blankly. ‘Were they serious?’ “Does it look like he
rages towards me? I haven’t seen that side of him since-since we learned of
this!” Mika had always been gentle with him. To the point where it was
annoying. His alpha wouldn’t even have sex with him anymore! And it hurt Yuu’s
pride. The only time he seemed troubled was in the morning when he would need
to be alone for a good half an hour. Yuu didn’t mind it much. But recently, he
was craving more of the Alpha’s attention.
 
“When Mika and I are together, he’s always loving and attentive. He’s never
hurt me!” Yuu was getting angry at their accusatory looks. “What the fuck?
You’re his friends! What’s with the third degree?”
 
Yoichi spoke up. “Me and you, we have something between us. We promised our
children to each other...” The small omega looked rueful. “But now I’m
concerned. You’re having two sons. And Mika is so protective over you. What if
I have a beta and he refuses to let them be together?”
 
Mika had prejudice against most beta from what he had been through. But he
still cared about Shinoa. And cared about Yuu’s relationship with his beta
father. “Yoichi! He’s not like that! And I am sure he’s not as violent as your
squad members make him out to be, Mitsuba! But he is the successor of this
place. So maybe he has to behave aggressively to run Krul’s army?” This sounded
reasonable to him. He hated that they were questioning Yuu’s safety around his
own god damned mate. Mika would never-!
 
“I’m sorry Yuu.” Yoichi said with sad eyes. “It's just..I can sense you’re sad.
So can Mitsuba. We’re just hoping you’re okay. You can tell us if there is
something going on.”
 
“For fuck’s sake, everything is fine! Okay? Now you all are just making me
pissed off-”
 
“Okie dokie let’s table the subject for now!” Shinoa said with a wide smile.
“If Yuu-san say’s he’s fine, then he’s fine.”
 
Thank the gods Shinoa ended that escapade. But the nagging feeling in the back
of his mind still remained. Even long after all of his friend had left, and Yuu
lay curled up in his comfortable nest inhaling Mika’s scent from his pillow.
 
Was Mika really ok? He hadn’t talked about JIDA much, even during his therapy
sessions. He had been doing better with the other people touching him issue,
but he seemed on edge some days. Like he was barely holding in his anger over
something. Only when they were completely alone, did he appear calm and at
ease. Yuu hoped that his calmer side would remain and overshadow his
aggression. But Yuu knew it was clear that his alpha was still struggling with
some demons in him. But by the way his alpha doted over him and was already
spoiling their babies with extravagant things like toys and clothes and
blankets, Yuu had no doubts in his mind that Mika would be anything less than
an exceptionally loving father. And if the rumor was true that Mika was a force
to be reckoned with while he deployed to the mainland to kill JIDA soldiers,
then Yuu was fine with it. His alpha could be ruthless to their enemies, Yuu
would do the same if he had the capability. As long as his Mika came home to
him in one piece.
 
~
 
Mika breathed deeply before opening the door to his shared apartments with Yuu.
He’d washed the blood from his skin and hair at the barracks, but the memory of
his blood splattered appearance remained fresh in his mind.
 
Yuu sleepily greeted him when Mika entered the threshold.
 
“Hey!” Yuu said groggily, getting up from the couch and wrapping his arms
around Mika’s neck, kissing him thoroughly. “I missed you.” The omega breathed.
 
It felt so good to be in his arms again. Mika kisses him back, entwining their
tongues and pressing their bodies together as close as he could-
 
Until he felt the stark reminder of Yuu’s fragile state pressing against his
abdomen. He pulled away before he got too aggressive, pecking Yuu lightly on
the forehead and smiling softly. Then bent to kiss Yuu's round belly. “I missed
you too.” Yawning, Mika retreated to their bedroom. Yuu closely trailing
behind.
 
Once they were in bed, Yuu snuggled closer. Wrapping a lean leg around Mika’s
hips and rubbing his hand along the soft fabric of the blond’s t-shirt clad
chest.
 
“Yuu…” His omega needed release. He scented his need. But their was something
else there. A spike of adrenaline, of fear. Mika shot upright. “Yuu, what
happened?”
 
Yuu blinked in surprise. “N-nothing…”
 
He heard Yuu’s heart rate slightly accelerate. “You’re...lying…”
 
Yuu bit his lip, canting his head to the side.
 
It was then that he caught the scent of another alpha lingering in their home.
“Who was here?” Mika’s voice was almost inaudible.
 
“What do you mean?” Yuu questioned. Genuinely wondering if he truly hadn't
recognized their friend’s scents.
 
“An alpha was here…” Mika let out a rumbling noise that came low from his
chest. An aggressive sound, Yuu realised.
 
“Only Mitsuba. Her and Shinoa came over yesterday to help with the baby room
while Yoichi made us food.” Mika visibly relaxed, but the notion that Yuu
needed to explain himself was insufferable. “Mika, it’s not like I would have
an alpha here I didn’t know. And you’re blasting your pheromones everywhere!
Stop it!”
 
Mika grunted, toning down his instinct to stake his claim.
 
“S-sorry...Yuu. I’m....just tired.”
 
Yuu looked at his alpha concerningly. It didn’t escape Yuu’s overly sensitive
sense of smell that Mika had recently been covered in blood. “Do you want to
talk about what happened?” Yuu asked softly.
 
Mika simply closed his eyes, shaking his head no.
 
“That bad huh?”
 
Mika sighed. “I suppose it was easier than the last mission.” He turned to him.
“You sure you want to join the army again after Kai and Yuri are born?”
 
“Tch, well yeah! Obviously!”
 
Mika scowled at him.
 
“Clearly you need me to have your back. You’re always such a mess when you get
back from a mission.” Yuu smirked playfully.
 
“You’re such an idiot…” Though the insult was blithe as he ran his fingers
through Yuu’s messy hair. “Who’s going to run the orphanage and look after the
kids while we’re both away?”
 
“Well I was going to say Mitsuba and Shinoa, but after seeing that their level
of housekeeping is about as good as mine, I don’t think that...wait…” Yuu sat
up. “Orphanage? So Krul’s going to open one?!”
 
Mika smiled. “We were combing the neighborhood around JIDA’s raid zone, and we
scented a couple of alpha and omega kids holed up in an evicted apartment. The
opportunity presented itself I suppose. We couldn't just leave them. They’re
going to need a place to stay after all. The barracks really aren’t a good
place for kids-”
 
“Hah! This is great Mika! Now we can go out and save a lot more kids!”
 
Yuu’s happiness was a contagious thing. Mika couldn't resist the urge to
chuckle and pull his omega back into his arms. ‘Let him have his dreams.’ Mika
thought. He’d convince him some other time that joining the army would be too
dangerous. And he was confident that Yuu wouldn’t be able to leave their
children for more than a day to go on a mission. He was too kind. He cared
about his family too much. When the time came, he knew Yuu’s resolve would
crumble. Mika on the other hand, didn’t have much of a choice. He had a duty to
uphold in preparing to run Krul’s compound. And Mika would do whatever it takes
to ensure this place remained safe enough for his family.
 
His reminiscing was cut off by Yuu’s roaming fingers, traveling lower to his
waistline. Usually he would stop him, but he didn’t. He wanted Yuu for so long,
but was always too afraid of losing control. Now with his aggression burnt down
to a mere ember, he felt calmer. And seeing Yuu so happy and him being the one
to deliver such news to make him this happy, he couldn't hold back any more.
 
So he let the hand wander, and relished the small sigh from his omega. Mika’s
own hands roamed in return. Drawing out moans and mewls, capturing his needy
sounds into his mouth until they were both panting. Yuu’s purring noises were
his undoing, and Mika positioned them in a more comfortable way before
connecting their bodies. The fit was tight since it had been so long, and
squeezed around him with that incredible velvety heat. This wouldn’t last long
for him. But for once, he wanted to take things slowly.
 
~
 
Almost a week until Yuu’s due date, and everything around him seemed to be
moving so fast. The room for the twins was finished, the orphanage was under
construction, and Mika was always home doting on him since Krul gave him leave
to take care of him without work interrupting. Now Yoichi had announced that
their baby was born the night before.
 
Yuu plopped himself on Yoichi’s sofa, nearly spilling his tall glass of juice
as he gaped at the tiny baby in Kimizuki’s arms. Pink tufts of hair matching
Kimizuki’s and wide sage green eyes peered back at Yuu’s emerald ones. Yuu kept
annoyingly following around everyone who held her trying, to get a turn. And
was being staunchly denied.
 
“You’re too clumsy!” Shinoa inclined. “You’ll drop her!”
 
“You and Mitsuba are the one’s who burn shit every time you attempt to cook!”
 
“Yeah, but I’ve never dropped anything!” Mitsuba argued.
 
Yuu grumbled and went to the kitchen to get a drink.
 
Now sitting next to the baby, he leaned in the rub his fingers over her
feathery hair, pressing his lips and nose against it to inhale. She smelt good,
considering where she came out of. Yoichi had delivered naturally (a mental
image he’d rather NOT ever have), and was surprisingly energetic afterwards.
Bouncing around the apartment as he accommodated everyone visiting. Jovial over
the fact that Shichi had been born an omega. Which apparently Kimizuki dreaded.
 
“Great.” The pink haired alpha said. “And you’re having two sons...can’t wait
for the teenage years!”
 
Yoichi nudged him at his sarcastic tone. “It is great Shiho! Now if Yuu has an
alpha, they’ll be bonded for life! We don’t have to deal with her bringing home
all kinds of boyfriends for us to disapprove of!”
 
Shiho held Shichi away from Yuu, as if he were the cause for the alpha father’s
trepidation. “Maybe when she’s 30…”
 
Yoichi rolled his eyes.
 
“What if I have two alpha’s?” Yuu wondered. Shiho paled.
 
“What if we have omega’s?” Mika added.
 
“What if he shits a unicorn?” Shinoa said. Sprawling on the ground next to the
alpha girl. “Either way, cross that bridge when you come to it!”
 
Mitsuba leaned against her. “Seriously, all you’re doing is making the guy
worry.”
 
Shiho’s eyebrows twitched and Yoichi came to take the baby from him. “Yuu?
Wanna hold her?” the boy asked.
 
Yuu perked up. “Well finally!” He held out his arms, making grabby hands toward
him.
 
“Bad move~” Mitsuba warned.
 
“Oh come on guys,” Yoichi defended. “He’s gotta learn sometime.” He hesitated
before handing her over. “Just...stay seated, alright?” He added with a sunny
smile.
 
Yuu glowered, but cautiously took Shichi from him. Immediately fearing he’d
drop her any second. She wriggled in his arms and waved her arms around. Yuu’s
eyes widened in panic at her squirming. ‘Shit! She hates me!’ “What's going on?
Is she gonna cry? Is she gonna pee on me?!” She lay so still when the others
held her.
 
“Just relax Yuu.” Yoichi said. “She can probably sense how nervous you are.”
 
When Yuu leaned back and calmed, she finally stilled, cooing softly. Yuu
breathed a sigh of relief. Almost laughing when he felt a kick in his own
stomach. ‘You know you’re friend is here, huh?’ He silently asked the twins
inside of him. After a few minutes of holding her and listening to his friends
chattering, Yuu look over at Mika. He hadn’t moved or said much since they got
here. And was staring at Yuu with a lost look in his eyes. Yuu realised then
that Mika hadn’t held her.
 
“Oi, Mika?” Yuu prompted.
 
The blond seemed to shake himself from his reverie. “Hm?”
 
“Your turn!” Yuu smiled.
 
Mika’s eyes widened. And everybody turned to look at him. Causing a flush to
creep up the blond’s neck. “Um...that’s ok Yuu. You’ve been wanting a turn for
a while-”
 
“Come on! I wanna see what you look like!”
 
Mika sighed, skulking over from his place near the kitchen table and came to
sit next to Yuu. Blushing furiously when Yuu all but shoved the baby into his
arms. If possible, Mika looked more terrified than Yuu had felt. But took a few
steadying breaths as he looked at her. Shichi swung her arms, tiny fingers
grabbing at Mika’s blond strands of hair falling over his face. Everyone fell
silent when Shichi grabbed at Mika’s nose, and the alpha smiled and giggled in
response. “She’s cute.”
 
Everyone except Yuu blinked at him. Unused to seeing the usually cold and
indifferent alpha fucking giggle and holding a baby. It was like watching a
squirrel waterskiing. Strange, yet oddly endearing.
 
Mika looked up when he noticed everyone was staring. “What?”
 
Shinoa laughed from her spot on the floor, breaking the tension. “I wish I had
taken a picture! You should’ve seen your face!”
 
He narrowed his eyes on the girl, handing the baby back to Yoichi. “Watch it,
or no babysitting for you.”
 
~
 
Three days later:
 
Mika came home from the commissary during late evening just after curfew. His
impromptu shopping trip taking longer than he wanted it to since he had to hunt
down all the strange things Yuu was craving to eat.
 
It was eerily quiet when Mika entered their apartment. Yuu was no longer in the
living room where he had left him.
 
“Yuu-chan?” Mika set the bags in the kitchen, waiting for a response. When he
heard none, he followed the scent of his mate to his little nesting room. The
curtains were drawn tight, and it was nearly pitch black inside, except for the
hallway light casting a soft glow over Yuu’s curled up silhouette.
 
“Yuu?” The omega was breathing heavily, body heaving under the thick comforter
draped over him. Mika’s skin tingled. Something was wrong…
 
He rushed over to his side, rubbing a hand over the sweating face poking out
from under the covers. “Yuu-chan! What’s wrong? What happened?”
 
“Mika…” Yuu said weakly. “I-I’m cold. It hurts…”
 
“Is it the twins? Are they coming?!”
 
Yuu didn’t respond, only wrapped the comforter more tightly around him.
 
“Come on.” Mika said. “Let’s go to the hospital Yuu-” Mika froze when he pulled
free the blanket. His mind reeling at the sight and the smell.
 
Blood. Tons of it pooled in an almost perfect circle on the cushions Yuu lay
upon. The omega’s pants were soaked with it…
 
‘Oh god!’’ “Yuu-chan! Stay with me!” Mika knew where the blood was coming from.
That it wasn’t from an injury. He wrapped the blanket around Yuu’s pale, cold
body. Hefting him into his arms. Yuu cried out in pain upon being moved. “I’m
sorry! I’m so sorry! You’ll be ok soon Yuu-chan, I promise!”
 
They didn't have phones. They didn't have radios to contact anyone for help! No
cars to drive to the hospital across the compound! ‘Fuck!’ He’d have to carry
him there and risk jostling him more resulting in more pain. He grit his teeth,
trying to stave off his tears as Yuu whimpered and clutched at Mika’s shirt as
he ran from the building as carefully and quickly as he could manage. It was
past curfew, nobody was in the halls or the lobby. Shit, nobody would even be
out in the streets.
 
Mika burst from the lobby, almost running straight into the back of the one
person he definitely didn’t want to see. But then again, maybe he could help
them.
 
“Ferid!”
 
The tall man turned to them. “Well hello Mika dear-” His grin faltered upon
seeing the shivering bundle in his arms. “What happened?”
 
Mika had never heard such a serious tone from the man before. “I-I don’t know!
The twins-and blood-and…” He found it hard to form a sentence with his mind
racing a million miles an hour. “Please, help me!”
 
“I’ll get a car.” Then Ferid took off in a blur of white and silver. How the
man acquired a car, Mika didn’t know. Nobody had cars here. Unless he planned
on taking one from the army base. Which was still a ways off. Mika decided to
get a head start and continued on his way to the hospital building.
 
“Wake up Yuu-chan!” Mika urged. “You have to stay with me! You have to stay
awake!” Yuu just grit his teeth, trying to fight the pain he was feeling. ‘I
can't lose him. Not like this. Not ever.’ “Yuu…” He said breathlessly. He
wanted to tell him he loved him. But he felt as if by saying that, he was
saying goodbye. ‘No. Yuu would pull through this. He had to!’ “You’re going to
be ok!”
 
As he said this, headlights shined on their forms and a military jeep came to a
screeching halt beside them. “Get in.” Ferid said through the open window. He
carefully placed Yuu inside before jumping in next to him and Ferid sped off.
The silver haired alpha fidgeted with the jeep’s radio, warning the hospital
that they needed to be ready in five minutes for an emergency. For the first
time since Mika had met the man, he was grateful for him and his quick thinking
abilities.
 
Yuu stirred slightly in his arms, and Mika clutched him closer. Noticing with
nauseating awareness that blood had now soaked through the blanket wrapped
around him and was now claiming the material over Mika’s stomach and hips.
“Mika…” Yuu whispered.
 
“I’m right here, Yuu-chan.”
 
“Promise me...something....”
 
“Don't do that Yuu. Don’t go making last requests! You’re going to be fine!”
 
Yuu just continued. “I-if you’re forced to choose...please g-get them out
alive.”
 
“Shut up, you’re saying stupid things! We’re all going to be together okay?”
Mika choked out a sob. “So just...please...don’t say those kind of things…”
 
“Kai...Yuri...our family...d-don't...don’t let me down Mika…” Then Yuu blacked
out.
 
The omega woke as he was being moved to the operating table. His pants were but
cut off of him and IVs placed into his veins. Two nurses were trying to wrestle
Mika out of the sterile operating room, but the alpha was fighting back. Eyes
fully red as he tried to shake the orderlies off to get to Yuu’s side. Yuu was
screaming and crying in pain. Everything in Mika was urging him to go to his
mate.
 
“I’m staying with him!” Mika yelled. “Get off of me, you bastards! You’re
hurting him!”
 
Another cry from Yuu punctuated Mika’s statement, causing the alpha to renew
his struggles.
 
“Get the alpha out of here!” The surgeon ordered. “NOW!”
 
Mika felt hands on his neck now trying to rein him in.
 
“Get them out!” Yuu screamed. “Get them out now! They’re going to die!”
 
The operating rooms doors started closing on Mika, as the four orderlies
managed to get him outside. He heard a chorus of expletives and doctors saying
things like “Cardiac arrest”, “No time for anesthesia”, “oxygen”, “Fetus”.
 
Mika couldn’t make out full sentences over his pulse roaring in his ears. He
froze in his struggle to watch the final scene before the door closed
completely. A surgeon was holding a scalpel over Yuu’s belly. Suddenly, Yuu’s
blood curdling scream made Mika’s hairs stand on end and his heart leap to his
throat. Moments later, Mika crumpled to his knees at the sound of the heart
monitor flatlining.
 
~
 
Yuu opened his eyes. His body felt light, almost numbed. Above him was a cloud
dotted sky, which seemed so close he could almost reach out and touch it. Below
him, the floor reflected the sky like glass. He sat up, taking in his
surroundings. Confusion was etched in his mind.
 
‘Where am I?’
 
Yuu stood, looking down to take inventory of himself. He was in the jeans and
shirt he had on during that day, and he was barefoot. He rubbed his palms over
his flat stomach. Feeling empty. Feeling lost. ‘Where are they?!’
 
He spun in a circle. “Mika?!” he shouted. The words seemed to echo all around
him. Like the words were bouncing off of non existent walls. Yet the expanse of
his surroundings was limitless as far as the eye could see.
 
‘Was this heaven?’
 
“This is purgatory.” A voice said from behind him. He turned in the direction
it came from.
 
An ethereal figure stood not too far away. It’s skin so white, it almost
appeared translucent. Hair the color of snow and impossibly long and seemed to
blow in the nonexistent wind along with its swaying white cloak covering it’s
body. Though it’s eyes were wholly black surrounding it’s golden iris’. Which
unnerved him. Yuu couldn’t even tell if this being was a male or a female.
Friend or foe.
 
“Neither.” The being answered. Reading his mind. “To both of those questions. I
simply just am. I’m an informant.” It’s voiced rang out and echoed loudly.
 
“Am I...dead?” Yuu asked it. Though he didn't feel any type on fear or dread.
Didn’t feel much of anything except for the numbness. If you could call being
numb a feeling.
 
“Not yet.” The being answered. “This is the stage in between, while you’re
trying to be revived. Your soul hasn’t completely left your body yet.”
 
Yuu sat down, crossing his legs and resting his hands on them. “How long do I
have to remain here?”
 
It looked up at the sky, as if the growing clouds depicted the foretelling.
“Not long now. Soon it will be determined whether you live or die.”
 
“What will happen if I die?”
 
The being tilted its head at him. “What do you believe will happen?”
 
Yuu contemplated this. Honestly, he wasn’t really sure. He had never given much
thought to religion. But he’d heard stories and theories about what others
believed. He liked the idea of reincarnation though. If he had to die, he hoped
for that. For a chance to reunite with Mika and their children…
 
“My sons…” Yuu said softly. “Are they ok?”
 
“I do not know, Yuuichiro. I’m only connected to your soul.”
 
Yuu bit his lip, hoping Mika had done as he asked, and made sure they lived. He
felt an ache at the thought of never seeing him. Which felt odd amidst the
numbness.
 
The being turned to him again, seeming to float along the glasslike surface and
placed a hand on Yuu’s chest.
 
Pain exploded in the place it touched, and Yuu gasped. Feeling like his blood
was on fire and his heart was being squeezed.
 
“Aaahh!” Yuu writhed on the ground as the being loomed over him, face hovering
inches away. Those golden eyes consumed him, shrouding his vision until it
appeared as if Yuu was staring at a light at the end of a tunnel.
 
“Is this what It feels like to die?” Yuu whispered, a single tear rolled down
from the corner of his eye.
“No. This is what it feels like to live.” The being kissed his lips, and the
light of the tunnel rushed towards him. Enveloping his gaze in golden light.

Chapter Summary
     Battle in the Compound
Chapter Notes
     Sooo....I decided to divide this into two separate chapters. :)
     Mostly because if it was all just one, it would have been WAAAAYYYY
     too long!
     And also because...cliffhangers? Sorry!
     The next chapter will be the last, followed by an epilogue. YAY!
     This is more of an action packed and fighting chapter. But I
     digress...It IS essential. So I hope you read it :)
     (please don't hate me)
     Action sequences are harder to write than smut, I've come to realize.
     But I tried to make this as accurate as possible with shit tons of
     research. YAY! Hope you enjoy :) Leave a comment if you like this.
     And I will see (for sure this time) in the last chapter!
     I love you readers tons! Thank you all for your awesomeness!
     XOXO
See the end of the chapter for more notes
Mikaela stood at the precipice that was the outer wall of the compound, facing
towards the horizon. Farmlands and small fishing villages dotted the landscape
before the horizon yawned into an open ocean that seemed to go on forever. He
stood very still. Waiting for the sound. Waiting for the signs of their treat.
They would be easy to spot on a clear day like this. He would have thought
today was a beautiful one, if their circumstances weren’t so bleak.
 
“Five minutes.” Krul stated from beside him.
 
Mikaela nodded. He was ready. He was determined. He wasn’t going to hold back
any longer. At every turn there seemed to be something that wanted to ruin his
life. To break him completely. And Mikaela had had enough of it. He wanted his
mate back, but he couldn't have him. He wanted his kids to be in his custody,
but he couldn't have that either. What could he have then?
 
‘Revenge.’ It was the only thing tangible in his life right now. The only goal
in his life he could achieve. Without Yuu-chan, he had nothing. Without Yuu-
chan, he couldn't even keep his own offspring. Krul was keeping them ‘under her
special care’, until Yuu awoke. As if she found Mikaela incapable of taking
care of them. And he resented her for it. He resented everybody.
 
Yet, nobody could reasonably be blamed for Yuu being in a coma. He could blame
himself, of course, he always did. Could reason that if he hadn’t impregnated
his mate in the first place, then this wouldn’t have happened. But Mikaela knew
that there was nothing that could have been done. He was grateful for the
children that they had together. But Mikaela lost a part of himself when Yuu
had died, even if he was only dead for a couple of minutes. He had felt the
loss like a physical hand ripping something from him, and it hadn’t returned.
Even when Yuu had been revived.
 
He was tired of it all. He didn't even feel the rage any longer. Just an
emptiness and coldness that permeated his senses. His eyes had been a constant
crimson hue ever since that day, which put everyone on edge. Expecting him to
snap at any moment. But it had been three weeks, and he still hadn’t snapped.
 
Part of Mikaela wished he would, just to be able to feel something again. He
felt emotional while holding his twins, felt love for them and relief that they
were ok. Healthy. Beautiful to behold. His sons had shared his and Yuu’s
features. One blonde with green eyes and one raven haired with blue eyes. It
made his heart hurt looking at them. Those beautiful green eyes of his beta son
looking up at him, and the thick tufts and raven hair from his alpha son poking
up and strange angles...
 
And emotional when he sat by Yuu’s bedside and held his hand, willing him to
wake up. Needing his voice and his words. Needing his touch and the way he kept
him grounded and strong.. But wartime didn’t allow for him to linger with his
loved ones. He had a duty to uphold in protecting them. And the threat that he
may snap, didn't afford him the chance to get to spend time with his children.
 
So for now, this was all he had. He had a job to do. And maybe after killing
the threat who had dared to come to their fortress, he would feel again. Maybe
he would break down and go insane, then he would come to his senses and be
himself. Like he had before. Though, he suspected that wouldn't happen. He
didn’t even feel the anticipation to kill. He just wanted this all to end, so
he could live in peace. He was tired of war. He just wanted to get this over
with.
 
Mikaela gazed over the landscape again, to the rolling hills near the sea.
‘Maybe they could run away’. Mika thought. Live somewhere in the countryside in
peace. Away from this war and responsibility of the compound that Krul was
trusting him with...maybe then, they could finally be happy-
 
He snapped his attention forward at the sound of the plane coming their way. In
the distance, several helicopters dotted the sky. ‘Here they come.’ Just as
Krul had feared. An airstrike.
 
~
 
Mikaela’s objective was clear. Fight fire with fire. Use their own weapons
against them. Krul’s own artillery was limited. They only had a single drone
and a handful of helicopters. Mikaela’s objective? Take out the helicopters and
commandeer the enemy Chinook before their ground units could be deployed.
Although this time, they were taking prisoners. Somebody had leaked intel about
the compounds location. Krul would find out who it was.
 
The rest of the unit was to take the airplane down before it dropped bombs in
the middle of their compound.
 
As soon as one of Krul’s Chinook hovered before him in, nearly blowing him off
of his feet and caused his cape to whip and snap frantically. He hopped into
the rear opening effortlessly, followed by Mitsuba. They sailed towards the
other helicopters. One other Chinook and three MI-24 gunships trailed them,
holding even more troops.
 
“Everybody hold your fire.” Shinya said over the radio headset. “The enemy has
two Kamov attack helicopters carrying air-to-air missiles and rocket pods. They
will be in range before our gunners will be. The Ground will take them out
first.”
 
Mika heard more talking over the radio, which he could barely make out over the
sounds of the rotors and the wind whipping around them. But he could make out
Guren’s voice, who was on Ground Control. “Reaper deployed. Stand by. And keep
out of range!”
 
Mikaela shared a look with Mitsuba. They only had one drone. One drone that
only held two hellfire missiles. One drone that Guren was remotely piloting. If
it was destroyed before it took out the Kamov…
 
Mikaela tried not to think about what would happen. He didn't have time or the
luxury to be hesitant. He failed more often by being timid, than over-daring.
They had no other option, it was a risk they had to take-
 
The drone zoomed past them in a blur as the Chinook slowed. Mikaela saw the
oncoming Kamov. Closer...closer...Would the drone get there before they were in
firing range?
 
The drone was so high they could no longer see it, but way the way the first
Kamov began doing evasive maneuvers and popping flares, Guren had clearly
locked on. The helicopter exploded, projecting shrapnel and debris all around
it, causing the other helicopters to bank in different directions to avoid it.
The other helicopters who weren't carrying missiles began firing at the ground,
others firing into the air at at them. Though, they were too far off for the
bullets to reach. They were only wasting ammo. And the Ground control squad
were positioned out of their line of fire. ‘So far so good’
 
The second Kamov canted upwards, firing off one of its missiles before
swerving. Two explosions were seen. One, the Kamov, the second smaller one, the
drone.
 
“Both targets eliminated. Reaper down.” Guren said over the radio.
 
It was unfortunate that the billion dollar drone had been destroyed, but at
least two of the most dangerous of JIDA’s aircraft had been taken out with it.
Mitsuba grinned widely. Giving Mikaela a thumbs up. ‘Now it was their turn.’
 
~
 
Mikaela heard it before he saw it, and ducked down as one of their own attack
choppers exploded. The shockwave pitched the Chinook on it’s side momentarily,
causing its occupancy to slam against its frame and their gunner to fall out of
the opening. Mika grappled for purchase, almost being flung from the aircraft
as well. Mitsuba grasped his ankle, yanking him away from the edge. ‘Holy shit
that was close.’
 
“Gunner down!” Mitsuba yelled into the headset. Mikaela took up the gunner’s
place, firing rapidly at the plane as it flew past them. Machine gun shells
went flying. Littering the ground around his feet and a couple of them getting
stuck in the small opening of his thigh high boots and burning his skin through
his pants. But he ignored it. The Ground unit hadn’t taken the plane out yet.
They were getting closer to the compound...‘Shit!’
 
“Shindo! Enemy Chinook!” He whipped his head behind him where Mitsuba was
strapping on a parachute, before looking out the back again. The enemy Chinook
was about to pass below them in the opposite direction. ‘No time to strap on a
parachute. They were going to get away!’ Mikaela leapt off, drawing his sword
in mid-air…
 
He landed on the very edge, the momentum almost throwing him off. He grabbed
the back gunner for leverage, pulling himself further inside while
simultaneously yanking the JIDA soldier out of the aircraft to plummet to his
death into the forest below.
 
Caught off guard, the other soldiers had no time to react as Mikaela cut a
swath through them all, and decapitated the pilot, throwing his headless body
to the side before taking his seat. He didn’t necessarily know how to pilot a
helicopter, but he knew enough to keep it level and slow it.
 
“Mitsuba!” He yelled into the headset. “Get your ass over here!” He paused the
helicopter in midair to allow her to jump on. He heard thudding sounds and a
string of curses before he took off in the direction of the compound.
 
Mitsuba was now glowering next to him. “Are you fucking insane?!” She
screeched. “You don’t just jump out of a helicopter without a parachute! You
could have missed! You could have died!”
 
“But I didn’t.” Mika deadpanned, moving from the pilot's seat to let her take
over. She may not be the best helicopter pilot, but atleast she had been
trained to do it. Unlike him.
 
Mika glared out the window at the plane approaching their base. “Go after it…”
Mikaela commanded her..
 
“Wait, what?” Mitsuba looked up at him from the controls she was fiddling with.
 
“We’re going after the plane Mitsuba.”
 
“Mika, those aren’t our orders! Our orders are to-”
 
“You think I give a shit about orders right now?!” He snapped at her. His red
eyes appeared to flicker like fire. “We both see where that plane is headed!
And we both know what that plane is holding!”
 
Mika swallowed, calm in his moment of clarity. “And we both know, that our
family is in there…” Mika gazed ahead at the place they had called home for all
of these months, before continuing in a softer tone, “Yoichi, Kimizuki and
their daughter Shichi. Shinoa. Yuu-chan and our infant sons, Kai and Yuri…” He
looked down at her wide eyes that were filled with confusion and worry.
 
Slowly, the red in Mika’s eyes faded, first to a purple that almost matched
Mitsuba’s, back to their calm, sky blue. “We’re alphas, Mitsuba.” Mika said
softly. “You love Shinoa. I love Yuu-chan, and we protect those we love. We are
born to protect our mates. We protect our family.”
 
Mitsuba’s lips parted, as if she were going to say something. The she clenched
her jaw shut tightly, and turned back to the windshield. “Tch. You’re so...god
damn...ugh!” She flipped various switches while cursing Mika to the surface of
the sun.
 
The Chinook sped forwards towards the direction of the plane and the compound.
They both heard yelling over their headsets, and with a shared look they
removed them. Sitting in companionable silence for a couple of minutes until
the were almost in range of the plane. Mitsuba ground her teeth and Mika
remained in silent, stoic contemplation.
 
“So, what’s the plan Mika?” Mitsuba asked.
 
Mika glanced at the distance between them and the airplane, then he stood.
“Here, I’ll show you.”
 
Mika stood to make his way to the cargo hold. Mitsuba placed the aircraft in
autopilot and followed. Mika looked around, then grabbed an assault rifle and
handed it to her.
 
“What’s this for?--AH!” She screamed. “What the hell are you doing?!”
 
Mika scooped her into his arms, walking over to the opened back of the Chinook.
 
“Put me down you son of a bitch!” Mitsuba flailed frantically, but Mika held
her fast.
 
Mika smiled softly at her bewildered face. “First order of operation when you
get back, learn how to cook Mitsuba.”
 
“Mika! NO! Don’t! You can't do this! What about Yuuichiro?! What about your
babies?!”
 
“If that plane gets within range, there won’t be anymore Yuuichiro or my
children. There won't be anybody...” He closed his eyes briefly, before he
steeled his gaze on her. “Look out for them for me, ok?”
 
“STOP! Mika! WAIT!-”
 
He flung her out of the opening, watching for a couple of seconds until she
deployed her parachute.
 
He sighed. Feet feeling heavy, he made his way back to the cockpit, swiching
off the autopilot and speeding the Chinook as fast as he could towards flank of
the airplane. ‘Faster damnit….” A Chinook was the fastest helicopter in the
military, with speeds reaching up to 315km/hr. He was currently pushing that
limit.
 
At the rate he was going, he would hit it right below the wing…
 
-700 meters-
Mika’s breathing grew shallow as a red haze covered his vision.
 
-500 meters-
He let it consume him. Closing his eyes.
 
-300 meters-
A sense of calm washed over him. He was happy to make this sacrifice, if it
meant his family got to live.
 
-100 meters-
‘If I do survive this, I’ll never part from Yuu-chan again.’
 
-50 meters-
“I love you, Yuu-chan…”
 
-Impact-
 
~
 
Everyone stopped and stared at the sky exploding before their eyes.
 
Krul gaped, eyes wide, lips parted on a gasp as she she shrank to her knees.
The radio feed from his headset faded to static.
 
“No…” Krul gasped.
 
Ferid and Crowley stood beside her atop the wall. Blinking against the
brightness of the explosion. They shared a perplexed look, then turned their
attention to Krul. It was over. The mission had been a success. The JIDA threat
had been wiped out. But nobody felt any victory from it.
 
Ferid cleared his throat. “Your orders, Krul Tepes?”
 
She ground her teeth angrily as tears threatened to spill from her eyes.
“Search the wreckage. Find something. Anything! Anything left of him! Don’t
return until you do!” She snapped.
 
With a nod, the two men carried out her command, and headed in the direction of
the forest where the debris was falling.
 
~
 
Mitsuba could feel the heat of the fire from where she had landed. Ducking
under a tree to avoid any flying shrapnel, she scanned the sky for a parachute,
a body, anything! She shrugged off her parachute pack and grabbed the assault
rifle, sprinting in the direction of the crash.
 
‘He wouldn’t do this!’ She thought frantically. ‘He wouldn’t let himself die
when his mate and babies needed him!’ She hurtled fallen trees, ripping off her
white cape when it snagged on a limb.
 
Her own alpha instincts pumped in her veins. And for the first time, she felt
the alpha rage consume her as she sprinted through the forest as if hell were
on her heels.
 
‘Alpha’s protect the ones they love. They protect their family…’ Mika’s words
rang in Mitsuba’s ears.
 
Mika was her family too! She loved him like a brother. He’d always been there
to protect everyone. Took it upon himself to be their alpha leader and keep
them safe from JIDA and from making mistakes at school.
 
Those memories seemed so far away now. High school. Homework. Trying to blend
with society...It was as if those memories were from a past life. And they
might as well have been, for all the shit that had happened within the past
year. Their temporary ‘reprieve’ up until this point, seemed like a fabricated
life. One they had fabricated themselves, in an attempt to obtain some
semblance of freedom and happiness. Of some god damn normalcy! It was nice
while it lasted...And now this.
 
‘NO!’ Mitsuba had faith. Mika wouldn’t leave his mate behind. ‘He WOULDN’T!’ He
had to have had a plan of survival. He had to! Unless his vital organs were
ruptured, or he was decapitated, he would survive! ‘Right? Wouldn’t he?!’
 
“Stupid, stupid idiot!” She screamed to nobody. He had saved everyone, true.
But still... ‘What the fuck are you thinking Mika?!’
 
Her eyes and lungs began to burn from the intensifying smoke as she neared the
wreckage.
 
~
 
“What do think happened with that explosion?” Yoichi asked Kimizuki. They were
given leave to exit the bomb shelter about 20 minutes after the airplane
exploded.
 
“I guess it’s over…” They had all heard it. Had even felt the aftershock. It
had been extremely close to the compound's outer wall. And when everyone went
outside, they saw clouds of smoke billowing into the sky, caused by the
surrounding forest catching fire.
 
Shichi wiggled and cried in Yoichi’s arms. The scent was nauseating, even from
this far away. Like burning rubber and flesh and fuel.
 
They had all been ushered into the bomb shelter when they were warned of an
airstrike. But apparently, they had won this battle. Even with their small
army, they had held them back, and defeated JIDA. They were all safe.
 
“When do you think Mitsuba and Mika will be back?” Yoichi asked.
 
Kimizuki felt a strange chill in the air. “I’m...not sure...Yoichi.” The pink
haired alpha’s brows drew together. “Let’s go to my office.” Kimizuki worked on
their security measures. The surveillance, code locked doors and security
clearances. He had access to the compounds footage. And his inquisitive nature
made him wonder what exactly happened during the time of their attack. They
would find out soon enough.
 
~
 
Shinoa was perched high in a tree blind. She lowered her binoculars and hopped
down for cover directly after the explosion.
 
She had heard earlier, from Guren’s radio, that Mitsuba and Mika and
successfully taken over an enemy Chinook. Then they had disobeyed their orders
and went after the plane.
 
That’s when Shinoa had left the concrete shelter to climb into the tree blind
to get a better look. She saw Mitsuba’s parachute deploy and her blonde
girlfriend safely float to the forest floor. ‘Thank god.’ Then she waited for
Mika to follow, and waited. Only to see the Chinook take off after the airplane
at a breakneck speed. ‘No…’ She had watched intently as the Chinook neared
closer and closer. ‘No, no, no!’
 
Shinoa bellowed into the headset. “MIKA! We have a plan! Don’t do what I think
you’re going to do!” There had been no response from him in return.
 
They didn’t exactly have a PLAN per say.They had nearly exhausted all of their
artillery, and the drone had been shot down. But The Ground Unit still had SOME
artillery left, so there was still a CHANCE to take the plane out..
 
.Right before the feed from Mika’s headset completely cut out, she heard the
staticked words of “I love you Yuu-chan” before loud banging noises, then
nothing.
 
“Lieutenant Colonel Guren!” Shinoa said breathlessly and she entered the
shelter. “Sergeant Sangu Mitsuba escaped the aircraft. Captain Shindo
Mikaela...however…” Her voice wavered in the end, and Guren placed a hand on
her shoulder. She looked up at him with tear filled eyes. Soldiers shouldn't
cry over the loss of a comrade. She had been told this over and over. Many of
their soldiers had died today, but Mika...He was more than a comrade. Mika was
family...
 
And Guren knew this. “Everybody move out!” He shouted. “Our objective is to
recover the fallen! Search for surviving JIDA soldiers, our own soldiers, and
especially Sargeant Sangu Mitsuba and Captain Shindo Mikaela! Scour the radius
of the wrecking thoroughly until you find something! Go! Now!”
 
Shinoa began to scurry off, but Guren stayed her with a hand on her shoulder.
“Not you. I need you to return to the compound and await further orders.”
 
“B-but..but Mika is-”
 
“I need you to check on my son…” Guren said solemnly. “He will know...he will
know if Mikaela is dead. He will feel it.”
 
“But sir, Yuu-san is in a coma. How would he know?”
 
His grip on her shoulder tightened. “I’m sure he will awaken soon…”
 
~
 
With a rumbling that vibrated his entire body, consciousness resurfaced.
Yuuichiro opened his eyes.
 
‘Mika…’

Yuu sat up, feeling lethargic, reeling from the abrupt way he had awoken in
these unfamiliar surroundings. He was in a hospital bed, wearing a hospital
gown, and hooked up to monitors and IV’s, but the room was all concrete. No
windows and a reinforced door. This did NOT look like a hospital. ‘Where the
hell am I now?...what happened?’
 
He assessed himself, lifting up his hospital gown to look at his body. He had
underwear on at least, but his naked legs were freezing in this cold room with
only the flimsy gown covering him. Hiking it up to his chest, he uncovered a
large scar spread nearly from one side to his other, almost directly under his
naval.
 
Then it all started coming back to him; The pain in his stomach increasing as
he made his way to his nest at home to curl into the softness, seeking comfort.
The way he grew more and more dizzy and cold as the scent of blood increased,
but too weak to move. Mika carrying him. Mika going berserk in the hospital.
The blind panic Yuu had felt upon sensing the twin’s distress as they moved
frantically inside of him. Then the doctors had cut him open and...blackness.
He must have passed out. But for how long?
 
He looked at the scar again. It was completely healed. And his stomach was
perfectly flat and had reverted back to it’s pre-pregnancy toneness. How long
did it take to heal this kind of scar? Days? Weeks?! ‘Was I asleep all this
time?!’
 
Where the hell were his children? Where the hell was Mika? And what the hell
was the rumbling sound he heard while he was waking? Yuu sprang out of the bed,
yanking IVs and wires off of him. But as soon as he put weight on his legs, he
collapsed. Too weak and wobbly from disuse to support his body.
 
‘Fuck fuck fuck!’ Using his arms, he crawled towards the door. It took almost
every ounce of energy he had just to get halfway across the room. He clenched
his fists. ‘Damnit what the hell is wrong with me?’ Yuu’s head snapped up at a
beeping sounds, and the door slid open with a clang. “Yuu-san!” Shinoa gasped,
running over to him and pulling him to his knees in a crushing hug. He wrapped
his arms around her in return. Shivering from the cold radiating off of her
snow dusted uniform. “Yuu! Thank goodness you’re awake! We were all so
worried!”
 
“Sh-Shinoa…” His voice was ragged and raw. “What...happened? W-where am I?
Where is-”
 
“Here I’ll help you up!” Shinoa interrupted and swung his arm over her
shoulders to get him to his feet.
 
His knees wobbled a bit, but he managed to walk with her help. Once outside the
door of the room he was in, he glanced back and forth in bewilderment at the
solid concrete hallway dotted with emergency backup lights and sirens.
“Shinoa?”
 
“We’re in the bomb shelter Yuu.” She told him, taking a left and heading
towards one end of the halls.
 
“B-bomb shelter?!” He nearly tripped at her words.
 
“The compound-” Her voice wavered slightly and she swallowed. “JIDA attacked
the compound. There was a threat of an airstrike. B-but it’s over now. We won…”
 
There was something about the way she said this, that make chills skitter up
his spine. They had won, but at what cost? “My children, Shinoa? Where are
they? P-please, tell me they’re ok! Are they safe?!”
 
Shinoa nodded. “They’re safe. Krul is keeping them under her protection in a
shelter where she lives. Wanted to make sure nobody could have access to them
in case JIDA infiltrated the base…”
 
“Then why the hell, am I NOT WITH THEM?” Yuu asked incredulously. ‘How dare she
keep them seperated from me!’
 
She glanced at him from her peripheral as they neared a service elevator. After
entering in some code, the doors opened and they stepped inside. She released
Yuu to let him slump against the elevator wall as they rode it up. “This may be
hard for you to comprehend, Yuu-san, but you went into a coma after Kai and
Yuri were born. For nearly a month.”
 
He mouth fell open at her words. “A...a c-coma? For a fucking month?!”
 
She nodded solemnly.
 
“Mika...what happened to Mika?!”
 
“He stayed in your room with you,” She said softly. “Waiting for you to wake
up. The twins stayed in your room too while everyone helped Mika take care of
them and watch after you. We tried everything we could to wake you. Talking to
you and laying the babies on you, in hopes that you would scent them and come
to. But…”
 
Yuu’s eyes welled up with tears, and he crumpled against the wall. He had
missed an entire month of his children’s lives. Hadn’t seen their faces, heard
their cries, smelled their scents. Were they already starting to smile at
people? Did they even know that he was their dad? Or...mom? He didn’t even know
what he was supposed to be called to them…
 
Shinoa placed a hand on his shuddering back. “They know you’re their mommy,
Yuu-san.” She said with a smile. “Whenever Mika couldn’t get them to stop
crying, he would lay them on your chest and they would calm down. It’s the
sweetest thing!”
Yuu choked out a half sob, half laugh at her words. Whether they were true or
not, he appreciated them. “Thanks Shinoa...I can’t wait to see them.”
 
She nodded, but her smile faltered. “Though...you might not be able to today,
Yuu. Not until we’re one hundred percent cleared of any threats, and Krul lets
them be released into your care.”
 
“Why is Krul the one making all of these choices? Mika’s their father, he
should be the one who has custody.”
 
Shinoa sighed. “Mika...wasn’t exactly in a good way while you were unconscious.
He appeared calm, but his eyes were constantly red. It put everyone on edge to
be honest. We weren't exactly sure what he would do if he was alone. Which is
why he stayed in the hospital room with you, so he could constantly be
monitored. At least...until the message was received that there was going to be
an attack…” The elevator doors opened up to the hospital. Nurses and doctors
bustled about, barely sparing them a glance as Shinoa helped Yuu through the
halls, to what he was assuming was the floor to his hospital room.
 
“So...where’s Mika now? He...he didn’t go into battle did he?”
 
Shinoa nodded in response. “He’s in command of a large battalion Yuu...he had
to go…” She unlocked a hospital room door and they stepped in.
 
Yuu froze at the scents permeated throughout the room. Mika’s, Yoichi’s and his
daughter. Shinoa’s, Guren’s and Krul’s. Mitsuba and Kimizuki’s scent was very
faint. Likely because Mika didn’t want other alphas around them for very long
while Yuu was unconscious. Through all the scents in the room though, he knew
immediately that the two unfamiliar scents were his twins.
 
He walked over to the hospital crib, touching the blankets laying in it. His
heart ached as he clutched the soft fabric to bring it up to his face, inhaling
deeply. ‘An alpha and a beta…’ he recognized. Mika’s scent lingered on the
blanket as well. The scents all combined smelled so right together, smelled
like home...Yuu smiled, even as fresh tears welled in his eyes. He wanted to
see them so badly. Their scent was soft and pure, and it filled him with the
instinctual urge to protect, to cherish. And he instantly fell in love. He
hadn’t even seen them yet, but just from their scent, he knew he would give his
life to keep them safe.
 
Shinoa cleared her throat, and Yuu looked over his shoulder at her. “You have a
change of clothes in here.” She told him. “Once you’re dressed, we’ll go to the
outer wall.”
 
Yuu blanched at her. “Seriously? Is that even allowed?!”
 
“Probably not.” She shrugged. “But I think it’s a good idea that you go. That's
why you should put on the soldier uniform I smuggled in so nobody will try to
stop you.”
 
He turned to face her completely. Looking contemplative. “Why exactly do you
want me to go to the outer wall with you, Shinoa?”
 
She fidgeted under the thick white cloak nervously. “Can I ask you something?”
 
“Um...ok?” Disquiet settled over Yuu.
 
“When something bad happens to Mika...do you feel it?”
 
Yuu’s eyes snapped wide. He stumble towards the girl, clutching her shoulders.
“What happened Shinoa?”
 
She cast her eyes downward as she worried her bottom lip. “There...was a
helicopter crash.” Shinoa told him. Figuring it was best not to go into full
detail. “Guren told me, that you would know for sure if he survived…”
 
Yuu released her shoulders as if she had caught fire. Yuu had woken up feeling
uneasy. Feeling as if something bad had happened. Whether or not Mika was
dead?...He sprang towards the large duffle bag, ripping out the white uniform
and laying it out to remove his hospital gown. Uncaring that he was only in his
underwear in front of Shinoa. She blushed and turned to give him privacy.
 
“So?” She asked. “Do you know things like that? I’m a beta so I obviously don’t
have your instinct levels. But I’ve always had these strange feelings whenever
a friend was in trouble.”
 
Yuu worked the form fitting white pants over his legs before buttoning up the
black dress shirt. “He’s not dead!” He said angrily. “I knew something was
wrong when I woke up. It’s similar to the feeling I had when Mika was captured
by JIDA. That’s the only indication i have, I guess. I knew Mika was still
alive back then, and I wasn’t wrong.” He sat at the edge of the bed, cursing
when he noticed that he had to try to get these thigh high boots on.
 
Shinoa looked over her shoulder when she heard his expletives, seeing him
struggling with the long boots and thick buttons. Not having the best
coordination after just waking from a coma, but she also noticed the omega’s
hands were shaking. Jaw clenched and brows furrowed in an expression of
distress.
 
“Here, let me help.” She knelt before him to tug the leather up his lean
thighs, forcing the buttons through the holes before moving to the next leg.
Yuu clutched his head with shaking hands, breathing shuddered breaths in and
out. And for a moment, she reconsidered having Yuu come to the wall to keep a
lookout for Mika.
 
“Yuu-san...you don’t have to come. We will find him and bring him here if you
rather-”
 
“Don’t be stupid…” He said solemnly.
 
Shinoa tilted her head as she looked up into his face.
 
“I wanna do whatever I can to help. Even if he’s found torn to pieces...it’s MY
right to carry him home. I appreciate you doing this, Shinoa…”
 
She huffed, slapping his knee when she was done buttoning the boots and stood
to hand him the jacket and cloak. “Drink this too.” She handed him a sealed
bottle with a chocolatey looking drink inside. “It’s a protein shake, so you
don’t get all dizzy and useless. You gotta keep up with me.”
 
Once he was fully dressed and had slammed the protein drink down, they were
about to leave when he turned back to the room. Stepping up to the crib, he
tore a ribbon of fabric from the baby blanket, tying it around his wrist and
tucking the ends in his glove. The scent of it comforted him, and maybe it
would bring him luck. And maybe if they found Mika, it would help comfort him
too.

The thick black smoke was suffocating. Hot metal seared through his clothing
and onto his skin. The pain was excruciating, and Mika was thankful for it. It
was the only thing that woke him up. He grappled blindly at the earth. Hands
and broken fingers digging into the snow. Trying to find a hold. Reaching for
something, anything. But there was nothing. ‘Can't...see…’ His corneas had been
seared, his eardrums perforated so he couldn’t hear.
 
Blind, deaf, and with nearly every bone in his body broken, he was pinned
beneath the burning wreckage of the plane and the helicopter. His protective,
impact absorbing gear over his shoulders and neck insured that his head
remained attached to his body, but it wouldn’t matter if he was burned alive.
 
Mika struggled anew, yelling out words he couldn’t hear himself saying. ‘Not
like this…’ Mika thought. ‘I survived the crash, only to be trapped under it
and burned alive?’ He almost wished he had died instantly upon impact. But his
instinctual rage had taken over, reinforcing his body and his reflexes and
taking the brunt of the force as he ducked behind a shield at the last second
as the aircraft exploded. Now, with his rage and strength completely burned
out, he was nearly helpless…
‘NO! Keep fighting!’ He HAD to live. He didn’t come this far just to die in
such a way! He dug his forearms into the snow, created an anchor and pulled his
useless legs until he was sure he felt skin and muscle tearing. ‘One leg
freed!’ Though the state of it, or even if it was still connected to his body,
he did not know. He was in too much shock to register that, and he couldn’t
seem to move his legs at all. Being blind was terrifying. Not knowing if your
limbs were still attached was terrifying. But like his fingers and toes when
JIDA had cut them off, they would grow back...eventually…
 
~
 
“Mika!” Mitsuba called out frantically. Choking on smoke and the scent of
burning flesh. ‘Oh god...oh god!’ “MIKA! WHERE ARE YOU?!” She stopped and
listened for a moment, sinking into the snow up to her knees. She could hear
the groaning of metal, the crackling of fire...and...something else. Was that a
voice? Or the wind? Taking a chance, she stumbled through the snow in the
direction she heard it. Brandishing the axe she had slung over her back and
discarding the assault rifle. The smoke got thicker, and she crouched low to
scan the wreckage in front of her. Everything was shrouded in white and black
and orange fire. Her eyes turned wholly red as she honed into her instincts.
Pupils going pinpoint small as she focused her gaze. Scanning...scanning for
blonde hair...scanning for movement...anything...anything-’there!’
 
Mitsuba hurtled towards the slight movement she spotted in the distance.
Chancing that it wasn't just simply more airplane falling apart or a wild
animal. But as she got closer, her heart leaped into her throat when she saw
blonde hair poking up out of the snow. “MIKA!” She screamed at the top of her
lungs. Mika had practically dug himself a hole and he tried to pull himself
from underneath a pile of burning airplane. The wreckage appeared as if it was
about to fall apart any second and bury him the grave he had dug for himself.
 
She slid to a stop next to him, sheathing her axe and grabbed onto his arms.
Mika’s head snapped up, milky pale eyes darted blindly as hands wrapped around
her wrists. ‘Shit, he can't see!’ She realized as she yanked at him. He had one
leg free, though the bones in it looked crushed. His other was still pinned.
And no matter how hard she pulled, he wasn’t budging. She released his wrists,
leaving Mika to clamber at the empty space as she brandished her axe again and
hacked at the burning metal. Trying to break it into pieces, and sending
burning debri flying every which way.
 
‘Shit, this isn't working!’ Without a second thought, she knelt to pivot her
axe next to Mika’s leg, using it as leverage the lift the metal keeping him
trapped. The heat from it burning the side of her face and arms, but she
ignored it. “MIKA PULL! Come on crawl out of there!” He couldn’t hear her, so
he swiftly kicked at his pinned leg. With a yell Mika wrenched it free. ‘Thank
God!’ She removed her axe and ran over to grab at his wrists again, pulling him
from the wreckage before the entire thing collapsed in a heap of fire and
smoke.
 
Once they were a fairly safe distance away, she stopped dragging him and
positioned him on his back in a clearing to assess the damage. She wasn’t a
medic, and wasn’t capable of doing much. But she had to do something. She
wasn’t sure how far away the others were, or even in which direction she needed
to go to get back to the compound. They would have to wait for help to arrive.
She took out her flare gun, firing a shot into the air. Hopefully somebody
would see their signal. Then got to work, setting bones back into place in his
arms, fingers and legs, allowing the healing process to start. Popping his
shoulders back into their sockets. Luckily his spine wasn’t fractured. Mika
didn’t scream even once, while she was doing this. Only shuddered and let tears
fall from his blinded eyes to freeze on his cheeks. Not knowing what to do
about the shards of glass sticking into his sides, she decided to leave them.
His cape and a majority of his uniform was burned to ashes, and she stupidly
discarded her own cape, so could couldn't use anything to stop the bleeding. So
she pressed chunks of snow against the burns littering his skin. The way his
ears were bleeding, she knew he couldn’t hear her. But she talked to him
anyway.
 
“You’re such a fucking idiot.”
“What were you thinking?”
“I hope you’re happy you’re alive, because Yuu is going to kill you!”
 
~
 
Yuu felt a shudder wrack through him as he stood atop the wall with Shinoa.
Whether if it was from the cold, or from something else, Yuu couldn’t be sure.
All he knew was, the sight before him was harrowing. A large circumference of
the forest in the distance was on fire. This was more than just a little crash.
It looked as if somebody had bombed the forest…
 
“Yuu?” Shinoa prompted. He looked over at her beneath the hood of the cloak he
hid himself with. “Do you feel anything?”
 
Yuu looked out over the scenery again. Trying to hone in on his instincts.
Scanning. Concentrating…”He’s...out there...somewhere, I just…” His eyes landed
on what looked like a clearing maybe a couple hundred yards from the wreckage.
Feeling something in that area. “Over there…”
 
As soon as he pointed it out, a bright red ball of light shot into the air. He
froze, Shinoa froze. “Holy shit!” Shinoa exclaimed. “You must have some serious
instinctual mojo!”
 
Yuu could hardly believe it. “You think that’s him?” He looked over at Shinoa
who was currently making her way down the wall’s ladder.
 
“Only one way to find out!” She said from over the edge.
 
Yuu followed suit. “But what if i’m wrong?” He asked from above her.
 
“There’s no way in hell that you could point out where you think he is, then
have a signal flare just magically pop up, just for you to be wrong! Have a
little faith!”
 
‘Faith…’ Yuu almost scoffed. It seemed as if some benevolent being was forcing
him and Mika through all of this heartache and chaos, no matter how much faith
Yuu had. If Mika was alive, what other fate would befall them in their future?
It was a terrifying notion, this thought of the unknown. But the universe
hadn’t killed either of them yet. Maybe it just liked toying with him. Yuu was
frankly sick to death of their constant struggle. Once he got Mika back, he was
going to attach him to his goddamn side if he had to. He never wanted to
separate from him again. Not if this shit kept happening whenever they did!
 
Once they reached the bottom, Shinoa sprinted in the direction of the treeline.
“Shinoa! Wait!”
 
“I told you to keep up Yuu!”
 
‘Damnit…’ He ran after her as fast as he could. He legs burned from the
exertion, but he was able to keep up somewhat.
 
For what seemed like a hundred miles of running, (which in reality was only
about a mile and a half) they came upon an outpost where soldiers were packing
things in snowcats and looking at maps and talking into radios. Shinoa paused
to scan the group, and she and Yuu spotted Guren at the same time, talking to
Shinya.
 
“Lieutenant Colonel!” Shinoa shouted as she ran to him. When he spotted Yuu
trailing behind her, his eyes widened with rage.
 
“YUU!? What in the ever living fuck are you doing out here?!”
 
Yuu removed the hood, seeing it as useless now that Guren knew he was out here.
“Nice to see you too Guren.”
 
“Yuu, you need to go back to the compound. This is no place for someone in your
condition!” Guren turned to Shinoa. “And I told YOU, to check on him! Not bring
him out here!”
 
She coyly twirled her hair. “Oh, was THAT what you said? Sorry sir, I guess I
misunderstood.”
 
Guren ran his fingers through his hair irritatedly. Muttering something about
stupid kids and demotions.
 
“Guren! Did you see the signal flare?” Yuu asked.
 
“Yeah, and we’re deploying Shinya’s squad and medics in the helicopter to the
location,” Guren snapped “So we have it under control! Now go-hey!”
 
Yuu sprinted towards the Chinook and hopped in, ignoring Guren’s protests and
the other soldiers eyeing him with disgruntled expressions. Yuu strapped
himself into the one of the empty seats along the side just as Guren and Shinya
strode in.
 
“Yuu, get the fuck out of that seat! You’re not going and that’s final!” Guren
bellowed.
 
“If Mika is there, then I’m going!” Yuu shot back. “I’m not going to wait
around and hope he’s alive! I’m going to go see for myself, and you can’t stop
me!”
 
Guren was shaking with fury. Ready to yank him from that seat, when Shinya
placed a hand on his shoulder. Smiling pleasantly at him. “Now now, Guren. How
about me and you talk about this outside?”
 
Guren sputtered as Shinya wrangled him out. As soon as they left the back
entrance, Shinya raised an arm to signal the pilot, and the engine started as
the back door began closing. Yuu almost laughed when he heard Guren cussing out
the white haired man. Yuu owed that Shinya guy one.
 
Yuu’s stomach lurched as they took off. The last time he was in one of these
things was the battle at the airport. It seemed as if they had come full circle
now. He hoped this was the last time that Yuu and Mika had to ride in one of
these things after a dire situation. He took a deep breath. ‘I’m coming Mika…’
 
~
 
It had been almost 30 minutes since Mitsuba had shot off the flare. The snow
was wetting their clothing, and she shivered violently as she held Mika in her
lap. Trying to share body heat. Mika had fallen unconscious as soon as she was
finished sitting his bones in place to the best of her ability. Now the waiting
game was weighing on her. She had no more signal flares, and was about to
contemplate trying to carry Mika out of here and try to find the compound, when
the sound of rotors overhead tore her from her reverie. ‘Oh thank god!’
 
~
 
“I see them!” Somebody shouted from within the helicopter. And Yuu unbuckled
himself when the back door began opening. Peering over the edge to get a better
look. He saw two blonde figures huddled in the snow below them.
 
‘Mika! And was that, Mitsuba?!’ His heart thudded in his chest. He wanted to
leap from the aircraft and scoop him into his arms, but he was stayed by a hand
of a tall alpha woman with long red hair.
 
“I think you better sit this one out, omega.” The woman said. “You’ll break
your damn legs if you jump from this height.” She and another alpha male with a
goatee secured harnesses around themselves, tethering one end of the rope to
the brackets near the Chinook’s entrance. “Don’t worry, we’ll bring him to you
safe and sound.” The other alpha man with the goatee winked. Then
simultaneously, they repelled out of the back of the aircraft.
 
~
 
Mika roused, blinking open his eyes, but he still hadn’t healed enough to be
able to see. Could only make out shadows and blurred lines, but at least he
could see light. And the complete silence he experienced in his ears, was now
accompanied by a high pitched ringing that made his head pound.
 
He recognized the feeling of the wind whipping, and knew there was a helicopter
hovering above him. An enemy or one of theirs? Mika didn’t know. But as soon as
he started feeling hands grabbing at him, his muddled thoughts became tangled
and he began to struggle against their hold. He couldn't see or hear, and
couldn’t even scent anything. Was completely helpless and it made him panic. He
felt himself being lifted into the air, and ceased his flailing. He wasn’t sure
how high up they were but the thought of shattering more of his bones upon
being dropped, did not sit well with him. If it was JIDA capturing him again,
he would have to deal with it once his senses returned.
 
Once he was laid out on something solid again, he felt the vibrations from the
metal of at last six pairs of boots moving about. He grit his teeth as he was
dragged further inside and away from the harsh wind whipping his skin, and felt
gentle arms wrapping around him. Cradling his head. Something soft tickling the
side of his cheek. Hair maybe? His nose tingled, and he inhaled, catching the
scent. “Y-yuu…”
 
The body against him shuttered, and he felt something warm and wet drip onto
his neck. ‘Yuu was here? What was he doing here? And where was here?’ He caught
the scent of Kai and Yuri as well, and he went stiff. Trying to mouth out their
names without knowing what he was sounding like.
 
He felt warm fingers grasping his own, his fingertips rubbing over some kind of
fabric tied around Yuu’s wrist. Yuu brought that same wrist to Mika’s face,
letting him inhale it. ‘Kai and Yuri’s blanket…’ Mika realised. Yuu’s scent was
calm as Mika took in the scent of his family. ‘They must be alright…’ And Yuu
was finally awake! Mika was so happy he was here, he couldn’t even be angry
that he was being reckless again and in a helicopter where he didn’t belong
outside of the safety of the compound. The blonde reached out blindly to feel
for Yuu’s face. Wet with tears and warm to the touch. He rubbed his tears away
with his healing fingers. He wanted to see him so badly. Yuu brought Mika’s
fingers to his lips, mouthing his name against the pads of them. Mika used his
free hand to tug Yuu’s head down, using his fingers on the omega’s lips as a
guide to bring their mouths together. Yuu kissed him back gently, as if he was
afraid to hurt him. But right now, Mika couldn’t feel any pain. His mind
seizing on the thoughts of having Yuu awake and with him, and it drowned out
everything else at that moment. His body relaxed against Yuu’s, feeling
unconsciousness take hold of him again.
 
Mitsuba, and a couple of the other alpha’s were blushing as they watched Yuu
and Mika’s exchange. It made Mitsuba’s heart swell to see that even when Mika
was so damaged and in pain, unable to see or hear, he still knew who his mate
was. Calling out his name and his children’s names with broken words as he
patted Yuu’s face and wiped away the omega’s tears. Relaxing from his panicking
state and going pliant upon knowing that his family was safe and Yuu was with
him.
 
When Mitsuba had seen Yuu in the helicopter once she was hoisted into it, she
had been furious. Thinking that Yuu was going to be a burden and get in their
way. But now she was grateful that he was here. Could see how much they needed
each other, and she ached to have a bond like that with the person she loved.
 
“Welcome back to the land of the living.” Mitsuba said to Yuu. He looked over
at her and smiled weakly before returning his attention back to his unconscious
mate. The medic came by then, rubbing a salve over Mitsuba’s burns and bandaged
her hands, before gathering a large pack of supplies and moving over to Mika.
 
Yuu gave the medic some space, but still hovered as close as possible without
pissing the medic off. “How the hell did this happen?” Yuu finally asked her.
 
Mitsuba contemplated telling him or not. “Well…” she began. “JIDA was going to
do an airstrike, dropping bombs at the compound in an attempt to wipe out the
civilians. We hijacked one of the enemy helicopters and Mika flew it into the
plane before it could strike.” She said this so nonchalantly that Yuu barely
comprehended.
 
“W-what? Then, where were you?! And why didn’t you stop him?!”
 
“I guess you can say he tricked me.” Mitsuba sighed. “I wasn’t sure of what his
plan was exactly, until he tossed me from the Chinook like a big heroic
douchebag!”
 
Yuu snorted. Looking at his alpha fondly. “He has a bad habit of doing shit
like that I guess…”
 
Mitsuba tsked. “Yeah, tell me about it. He did save a lot of people though. And
managed to stay in one piece. So I SUPPOSE, we have to give him some slack.”
 
“HA! I’m kicking his ass as soon as he wakes up!” Yuu scoffed. Earning a glare
from the medic. Ok maybe not literally. But his mate was still going to get an
earful. He’d be damned if he let Mika do something this crazy ever again. He
had come so close to death too many times over the past year. Yuu had enough of
it. “Thank you Mitsuba...for saving him…”
 
~
 
It was the third day of Mika being in the hospital. The heavy doses of pain
medicine he was receiving was keeping him drowsy and asleep pretty much the
entire time. The first day he got here, everything was such a flurry of chaos
that Yuu could hardly keep up. It seemed as if there was a lot of injured
soldiers from the attack, and Yuu lost Mika a couple of times among them.
Wandering the busy halls and trying to sniff him out, he finally found him
being transferred to a private room, with Krul yelling and demanding the nurses
and doctors to do different treatments, before she finally noticed Yuu standing
in the doorway.
 
“Yuuichiro.” She gasped. “Thank goodness you’re awake-why are you in those
clothes?”
 
He looked down at himself, remembering that he was wearing the uniform still.
“Um...well…”
 
She shook her head, exasperated, and turned back to the doctors. “Anyway, use
my blood for an infusion to get him healing faster. And bring an extra bed in
here too for his mate.”
 
Yuu supposed that was nice of her, but…”W-what about my kids?”
 
Krul turned back to him. “They’re fine, Yuuichiro.”
 
His brows furrowed. “I haven’t seen them yet! I want them here with me!”
 
“This isn’t a good time to be discussing this, Yuuichiro. I will speak to you
about it once Mika wakes up. There’s a bathroom in here so get cleaned up and
return that uniform. It doesn’t belong to you and we can’t have my son’s mate
impersonating a soldier. Alert the guards when Mikaela wakes.”
 
And with that she left, posting guards outside of Mika’s door, and leaving Yuu
feeling suddenly hostile towards the alpha woman.
 
The day after that, the beta doctors had stripped Mika completely to dunk his
body in a tub full of ice water to break the alpha’s fever. Mika had shot awake
instantly and thrashed in their hold, snarling and swiping blindly at them. Yuu
had fed off of his aggression, fighting the doctors off of him and growling
viciously. The doctors had backed off, and Yuu crawled into the icy cold tub
with Mika. Straddling his hips and cradling his head against his neck until
Mika went limp and unconscious again, allowing Yuu to get him cleaned up. The
omega knew he was interfering with the doctor’s jobs, but he hated seeing them
touching him and causing him stress. And Mika clearly didn’t want them to touch
him either.
 
Even though the alpha’s broken bones had already been set and were quickly
healing, he could still injure them again with the way he thrashed around like
a lunatic in his delirious state. He even seemed angry when Yoichi and Shinoa
came by to bring Yuu a change of clothes and some blankets from his house. Mika
would stir and growl in his sleep and clutch Yuu closer to him as he lay beside
his alpha. Yuu just weakly waved at them, mouthing ‘thank you’ and ‘sorry’ at
their blushing faces before the two quietly snuck out again.
 
Finally today, Mika was calm and stable. And relatively healed for the most
part, aside from the bruised ribs and stitches. And he even didn't know if he
was able to see or hear yet. The few times he did wake up, he would either
mumble incoherently or growl at people. Yuu knew that Mika probably needed
those drugs to take the edge off of the pain, but Yuu didn’t like that it made
him too sleepy to be coherent. It also diminished his alpha pheromones, which
made Yuu uneasy. Figuring he would reconnect it if Mika started showing signs
of distress, Yuu disconnected the IV that was feeding him the painkillers.
‘Sorry Mika…’
 
~
 
It was in the middle of the night when Yuu woke feeling antsy, and way too hot
in Mika’s arms. ‘Oh no…’ He wriggled and tried to sit up, but Mika
instinctively held him tighter. ‘Come one, not this shit again!’ He felt the
telltale signs of heat creeping under his skin. How the hell was that possible?
‘I just got done having kids!’ Granted, that was about a month ago...but still!
There was no preheat symptoms though, this just hit him out of nowhere. Though
it wasn’t as strong as a full on heat cycle, he still felt warm and started
slicking and growing hard in his pajama pants.
 
‘Shower...cold shower…’ He thought. Mika was asleep, and couldn’t do anything
to help. And he wasn’t about to wake the injured alpha over something like this
after he’d just been in a plane crash! Yuu managed to scooch out from the arms
encircling him, slowly crawling backwards off of the narrow bed-
 
“Where are you going?!” Mika sat up suddenly, gripping Yuu’s arms tightly in
his hands and gazing straight at Yuu when red glowing eyes.
 
“Oi! Holy shit you scared me!” Mika relaxed his grip, laying back down and
pulling Yuu on top of him. “Um...Mika? Can you hear me?”
 
“Mmm…” Was all Mika replied and snuggled closer to the warm omega in his arms.
“You smell incredible…”
 
Yuu wasn’t sure if that meant yes or no. “Mika...I-” He shuddered at Mika’s
hardness pressing against his thigh. His alpha scent returning full force,
intoxicating him and making him become pliant in his arms. “I n-need to
go...to…” Where was he going to go again?
 
“You’re not going anywhere…” The alpha commanded.
 
Mika’s husky words in his ear made him shiver. Whether the alpha was conscious
of what he was doing or not, Yuu couldn’t find it in himself to care.
Especially when Mika started sucking on his neck and filling the room with his
heat spiked scent. “What’s this?” Mika asked against his neck.
 
“I...don’t know…” Yuu breathed as he threaded his fingers through Mika’s hair.
“It just happened…”
 
“Mmm...not a bad way to wake up…” Mika murmured, nibbling on his scent gland.
 
Yuu tried to pull off of him, remembering he was injured. “But, Mika, you’re
hurt!”
 
“I don’t care if i’m hurt…” He pulled him back down.
 
“But...we’re in the hospital! And-”
 
“Yuu-chan, shut up.” He kissed him deeply to silence him. “Fuck, I’ve missed
you. I can’t believe you came to my rescue as soon as you woke up. Thank you,
Yuu-chan...But don't ever do it again!” Mika bit his neck again, hard. Hard
enough it made Yuu keen and he was sure blood welled.
 
“Y-you’re the one who...who put yourself in danger!” Yuu tried to argue. “How
about YOU never d-do that again!”
 
The alpha ground his hardness against him, humming into his bite. Yuu took that
as an agreement, and pressed into him in return. Not having the heart to try to
fight with him. Mika had spent so much time waiting for Yuu to awaken. What
seemed like a night’s sleep to Yuu, was weeks for Mika. And he had been so
patient and caring to him and their kids during that time, even when he was on
the edge on breaking down.
 
Yuu’s heart twisted in his chest. He never thought he would be as lucky as to
have someone care about him so much. Who would sacrifice himself to keep his
family safe. Who knew him just from his scent and calmed at his presence. The
bond between them was so strong that Yuu could sense where Mika was in a vast
forest. Made even stronger now that they have created life between them. And
still, Yuu wanted more, somehow.. More closeness. More bonding.. Wanted to be
close enough that nothing would ever separate them…
 
“More…” Yuu murmured. Causing Mika to release his bite and lick at the wound.
 
“What do you need, Yuu-chan?”
 
“I need more. I need to be closer.” He whispered.
 
Mika smiled against his hair. Loving how needy and demanding his omega could be
sometimes. He missed this side of Yuu. Missed being able to take him freely
with abandon. His legs and back still hurt like hell, but it was dulled when
shrouded by this rampant desire he felt. Yuu smelled so sweet and wonderful,
almost as if he was in heat. Just not as sharp. He wasn’t sure what this was,
but he wasn’t going to question it when his omega was demanding more from him.
He removed Yuu’s shirt, followed by his own. Eyes rapt on his claiming mark on
Yuu’s neck, and the fresh mark he placed next to it. Kissing it softly and
holding Yuu closer to him as he shimmied the omega’s pants down, laughing when
Yuu eagerly kicked them off then tugged Mika’s underwear down. He was growing
impatient.
 
“I need it now...Mika…” He straddled the blonde, spreading his ass apart to
line Mika’s already hard length up with his rapidly slicking hole. Demanding
his pleasure and taking it, unabashed, he sank down, letting his head fall back
at the sensation of being filled. It seemed like it had been ages since he
could so freely make love to his alpha. And it made him crazed. The wide head
of Mika’s cock stretching him to the point where it burned, but it felt good.
He relished the burn and the fullness accompanying it. The walls of his insides
felt overstimulated, and more sensitive than he could remember. Even more so
than when he was last in heat. He didn't even have Mika inside of him halfway
and already he felt his spine tingle at the base and that heated coil
tightening. Relaxing his knees, he sank further down, impaling himself on the
blonde’s cock until he felt it hit that sweet spot inside of him. He looked
back down at Mika, who was staring slackjawed. His face flushed and his golden
hair fanned around his head like a halo. ‘Damn, he’s so hot…’
 
The blonde gripped Yuu’s waist and rolled his hips. Wincing slightly from the
pain in his back, but continued. “Mika...y-you don't have to do that. I don't
want you to be in pain.”
 
Mika rolled his hips again. Sending sparks of pleasure through the omega, and
Yuu bit back a loud moan. “The only thing that pains me is my heart from how
perfect you are.” Mika breathed as he rolled his hips again. “You’re so
beautiful…”
 
Yuu flushed pleasantly from the praise. Suddenly feeling very exposed and self
conscious. “Mika...I’m not…” He trailed off when the blonde ran his hands up
his body. Rolling Yuu’s nipples between his fingers languidly, then trailing
them down his taut torso, tickling over his ribcage, smoothing over his flared
hips before pausing to rub a thumb over the scar below the omega’s navel.
Looking guilty suddenly. “Stop that.” Yuu muttered through panting breaths. He
grasped Mika’s hand, and boldly placed it over his dick. Leaning back to tilt
his hips into the touch and bucking his hips, encouraging Mika to stroke his
aching length. This angle also caused the alpha’s cockhead to nudge into Yuu’s
prostate forcefully. Eliciting reedy gasps from the omega as he worked his hips
on the alpha’s dick. Heated pressure building and building as Mika stroked
Yuu’s length with one hand, gripping the omega’s ass with another to wrench him
onto his dick with each downward plunge.
 
Careful with the placement of his hands so he wouldn't put pressure on Mika’s
injuries, he leaned forward to give himself more leverage to move up and down.
Sinking onto his alpha’s length to the hilt before sliding up again. Watching
those gemlike blue eyes close briefly with bliss every time Yuu’s smooth round
ass slid over Mika’s sack while he felt the omega’s needy, swollen sweet spot
catch on the ridge of his cockhead. It took everything Mika had not to pound
into him. To instead savor the slow build, the sight of their bodies connecting
over and over, and the way Yuu’s wet velvety walls caressed his cock so
sweetly. His omega’s dick throbbed and dripped precum over his fingers, and
Mika rolled his palm over the head, slickening it and making Yuu writhe
wantonly. ‘Perfect...he’s so perfect…’
 
“Hah...Mika...I’m, I’m g-going to...I’m already close..” Yuu panted through
drooling parted lips. Eyes half lidded and shining like glittering emeralds,
cheeks dusted pink...Just the sight of his omega was enough to bring Mika
closer to release as well.
 
“Come for me, Yuu-chan. And I’ll make you come again…” He thrust his hips
harder into the omega. Eyes riveted at the sight of his mate coming undone
above him.
 
That coil tightened in Yuu’s groin, wound so tight it made his head swim as he
shamelessly rode Mika’s cock to completion. Slick poured from his opening as he
bounced atop the alpha, vaguely remembering that they were in a hospital with
guards outside their door, and he clamped a hand over his mouth, biting down as
he reached his peak and spilled his seed over Mika’s hand and stomach. Nearly
bellowing against his hand as drool seeped down his chin from beneath it. Once
the waves of his orgasm had subsided, he still wasn’t satisfied. He still
wanted more. Wouldn’t be satisfied until his alpha’s seed filled him up and he
was knotted. Yuu could tell he wasn’t technically in full heat, but could Mika
still knot him?
 
“Uhnnn...more Mika!” Yuu’s head lolled as he lazily continued riding Mika’s
cock. The blonde panted under him as he licked Yuu’s cum from his hand and
fingers.
 
“Mmnn...whatever you need my love. Just tell me, and it’s yours.”
 
Yuu’s heart sped up at his words. Mika had never called him that before, and it
made Yuu blush hotly. “I...I want more of your marks. Your claiming marks.
Please…” Alpha’s typically only left one. More was unnecessary, but it would
make Mika’s scent within his omega stronger. If that was what Yuu wanted, then
Mika would be happy to oblige- “Also,” Yuu said “I want to leave claiming marks
on you too.” The bite Yuu had left on Mika while he was in heat had faded.
 
Omega’s didn't leave bonding marks on their alpha, but they could if they knew
how. The notion would have bothered Mika before. But that was before Yuu had
almost died. Before Mika had almost died. Nearly dying changed him. Gave him so
much clarity, that he felt he had been living with blinders on his eyes.
Ironic, since he had been temporarily blinded by the incident. Everything bad
that had happened in the past no longer mattered. There would be no more
barriers between them anymore. Mika belonged to Yuu. Body, mind and soul. The
omega had every right to stake his claim if that's what he wanted. “Mark me as
much as you like Yuu-chan. I’m yours. I’d be nothing without you.”
 
Mika sat up, wrapping Yuu’s legs around his waist and pulling him in for a
kiss, hand shaking on the nape of Yuu’s neck in anticipation. Elated to get to
mark his mate again. If this was what Yuu wanted, then he would mark him so
hard that other alpha’s would fear getting too close to him. He leaned in to
the unmarked side of Yuu’s neck, licking at the scent gland to release more of
Yuu’s heady smell into the air and inhaling it deeply. “Feel what I’m doing,
Yuu-chan, then do the same.” Mika swiftly bit into the spot, sucking at the
blood welling from the wound and taking it into himself. Upon doing this, his
saliva grew thick, laden with Mika’s own pheromones as he sunk his teeth in
deeper. Feeling Yuu gasp and moan as Mika’s saliva infused into the opened
wound and making it so the mark would forever remain long after it was healed.
Mika’s essence forever fused into Yuu’s gland. Bonding them again.
Strengthening his hold and his power over his omega.
 
“Ah god, Mika...more! Please!” His needy cries rang in the alpha’s ears, and he
happily complied. Sinking his teeth into another bare spot, as Yuu followed
suit. Biting into Mika’s throat and swallowing his blood. Mika’s hips jerked
and cock twitched inside of Yuu as the omega infused Mika’s glands with his
essence. ‘Why did I ever refuse to let Yuu do this?’ Mika wondered to himself.
Any gaps of doubt between them vanished.
 
As soon as Yuu tasted blood, he grimaced. His drool became abnormally thick in
his mouth, but he sank his teeth in deeper and the taste and sensation grew
more pleasant. Mika started rocking into him again and Yuu moaned around the
bite, shivers wracked his body. He could feel it. Every one of Mika’s
heartbeats and breaths as if it were his own. Could all but feel the alpha’s
emotions through this bond they shared. And Yuu wanted to cry from the
overwhelming rightness of it. Heated sparks danced in his veins, and all of his
senses became heightened. “Mika…” Yuu groaned as he released his bite. “I
feel...strange…”
 
Mika cupped his face and brought their lips together. Delving his tongue into
the omega’s mouth, tasting each others blood on their tongues and they twirled
and massaged them together. Tickling the roof of Yuu’s mouth with the wet
appendage until he wrapped his lips around the alpha tongue and sucked it, a
thick string of saliva connecting their mouths when they pulled apart. “Feel
better?” Mika asked playfully.
 
Yuu answered by grasping the blonde’s hair and delving in for another heated
kiss as he began rolling his hips again. Mika ran his fingers down the omega’s
spine, and palmed his round ass as he relished the way the omega moved on his
cock. Grinding down at the base and snapping his hips, faster and faster, until
all the alpha could do was dig his fingers into Yuu’s flesh as the omega
brought them closer to release. “I’m gonna-mnn-come again…” His arms wrapped
tighter around the blonde’s neck as he rode him. “Mika...knot me…”
 
Mika could hardly speak through his ragged breaths and lust filled haze. “I-
I don’t...think…” He was going to say he couldn't knot him unless Yuu was in
heat, but he felt it swelling at the base of his shaft. ‘I guess I can then…’
Mika lay back against the pillows again, wanting to watch his omega come undone
again as he filled him. Yuu’s eyes were squeezed shut, mouth hanging open
around his soft gasps. Mika thrust up into him, assaulting that sensitive spot
deep inside and groaning when he felt Yuu’s sheath clench around him everytime
he hit it. Heat pooled low in his groin, traveling up the length of his shaft
and his knot swelled almost painfully. “Yes-Yuu-chan! Uhnn..take it!” Yuu
swirled his thumb over his drooling cockhead, gripping it tightly as he gasped
and moaned lewdly, not even bothering the hide his voice as Mika’s seed flooded
his insides and Yuu lashed the alpha’s torso with hot white spurts. It seemed
to go on and on, pulsating and twitching as Mika pumped his hot liquid into
him, before the alpha wrenched Yuu’s hips down and buried his knot into the
omega’s soaked, spasming hole.
 
Yuu bit his lip, toes curling from the delicious fullness. He slumped forward,
pressing his sweating forehead against Mika’s as they both panted and gasped
for breath. “Fuck...you have no idea how much I missed this…” Yuu whispered.
 
Mika chuckled, carding his fingers through Yuu’s disheveled soft hair. “I think
I can relate, Yuu-chan.”
 
Yuu opened his eyes, his vision shrouded in the crystal blue of Mika’s. His
heart felt too big for his chest. The love for him so overflowing he could
burst. It scared him a little. Because he had almost lost Mika too many times.
What was he supposed to do if he couldn’t always have his alpha by his side? He
couldn’t allow that. They were in this life together, had unbreakable ties
between them that he couldn't live without. And still, he wanted more. Wanted
everyone to know the depth of their bond and their commitment. ‘How to get
more?...’ Then a thought crossed his mind, and he smiled widely. “Hey Mika?” He
sat up to look fully at the alpha’s flushed, relaxed face.
 
“Yes, Yuu-chan?”
 
“Will you marry me?” Yuu asked coyly. Feeling his face burn hotter.
 
Mika’s lips parted as he blinked at him. Surprised by his question. “You...want
to get married?”
 
Yuu giggled. Broadening his smile until his eyes squinted shut. “Yeah! I mean,
We already have kids together, and a bond between us, and…” Yuu cocked his
head, smile faltering. “Unless, you think that’s too much or something…”
 
Mika squeezed him impossibly tight, peppering kissing all over his face and
neck. “Yes Yuu-chan! I’d love to marry you! I didn’t think you would be up for
the idea!” He chuckled against his neck. “I always thought I’d be the one to
ask you first! You make me so happy, Yuu-chan...I love you so much!”
 
Yuu felt relief washing over him. “You know...I’ll be 18 next week. Maybe we
can do it after then?”
 
“Wanna have a big ceremony and all that too?” Mika asked with excitement.
 
“Uhh…” Yuu paled at the thought. “Lets just...keep it small, yeah?
 
“Knowing Krul...it’s going to be hard to keep it small.”
 
Yuu groaned. “Speaking of Krul…” Yuu sat up again. She’s keeping Kai and Yuri
somewhere. I want them back Mika! She wouldn’t even bring them to me after you
were brought to this hospital room.”
 
Mika’s expression darkened. “She denied your request to see them?!” ‘What the
hell was she doing?’
 
Yuu nodded nervously.
 
“We’re going to go get them. Now. Then, we’re going home!”
 
~
 
It was well after midnight, when Yuu and Mika were finally able to separate and
get dressed in their casual clothing. Yuu protested that Mika should wait until
he was completely healed before leaving the hospital, but the alpha just simply
ripped to electrodes and IVs off of him, claiming he’d been through worse pain
and could handle this. The guards attempted to stop them when they were leaving
the hospital room, resulting in Mika slamming one of the guards against the
wall for grabbing Yuu by the arm. Yuu smirked at the man. Serves him right.
 
The snowy streets were deserted as Yuu and Mika walked briskly to Krul’s
estate. Mika’s face set in determination. Yuu was a bit nervous about
confronting the powerful alpha woman. Mika pound his fist against the front
door. So hard that for a second, he thought the wood would splinter. When there
was no answer for a minute, he did it again. Pounding on the door for long
moments before he finally heard a lock click and the door swung open, revealing
a large Alpha guard opening the door. Mika burst inside, brushing past the
guard and pulling Yuu inside with him. “Krul!” Mika shouted, ignoring the guard
pleading for him to keep quiet because Krul was asleep. “KRUL! YOU KNOW WHY I’M
HERE! COME OUT!” Yuu was mortified. Hiding behind Mika in fear of the woman’s
wrath. The guard apparently had enough because he started reaching for Yuu to
throw them out. But Yuu glared at the man, blasting his pheromones that smelled
so strongly of his alpha’s claim, and the guard faltered. Mika caught the scent
and turned to the man. “You touch my mate, and you die.” His eyes were glowing
red. “Go wake Krul, now!”
 
“Mr. Shindo…” the guard said softly, “Mistress Krul is very tired from the
previous events. Please, come by in the morning and she will arrange to meet
with you-”
 
“I am NOT leaving, until I have my children!” Mika snarled.
 
“You can be so demanding sometimes Mikaela dear.” Krul said from the top of the
stairs. Even with her hair knotted up in a high messy bun and dressed in a long
black robe, she still exuded an authoritative air around her. She sauntered
down the stairs. “I’m glad to see you’ve recovered. Same goes to you,
Yuuichiro. Everyone was very worried.”
 
Mika pulled Yuu behind him protectively. “You knew he was well when he came to
my hospital room. And you still didn't give him back our sons. What the hell do
you think you are doing, Krul? Those are OUR babies, you can't just keep them!”
 
She studied her nails. “They’re safe here Mika. Don’t go thinking I intend to
inflict any harm on them. Those boys are delightful. And that beta son of
yours, he’s very...interesting…”
 
Mika’s eyes flickered menacingly. “What did you do? What are you doing to them
here?!” He stood over her, posturing threateningly.
 
But Krul was unfazed. She sighed. “Fine, if you’re going to get all aggressive,
then come with me.” They followed her up the large staircase and down a
hallway, until they stopped at a door for Krul to unlock with an old fashioned
brass key. Inside the room was ornate, with soft colors and luxurious
furniture, and a single crib in the center. “They’re right in here. And they’re
fine-”
 
Yuu burst inside, running up to the crib, his heart pounding in his chest--
”Kai...Yuri…” Yuu gasped, eyes welling up with tears. They looked like two
precious dolls sleeping next to one another. Instinctively seeking out each
other's presence as they slept soundly. Mika stood next to him. Smiling down at
the sleeping twins. “They’re perfect…” Yuu breathed. His beta son had Mika’s
light blonde hair, his alpha son had Yuu’s raven locks. Both with Mika’s waves
curling around their round cherub faces.
 
Mika hummed in agreement. “They must get that from you, Yuu-chan.”
 
Yuu rolled his eyes at Mika’s cheesy words, but smiled. Picking up his blonde
beta son. “Yuri…” Mika nodded in agreement, picking up their alpha son Kai. “I
named the blonde Yuri too.” Mika smiled. Then turned back to the doorway where
Krul was still standing. “Now what the hell makes Yuri so interesting that you
would have the nerve to keep him here?” Mika growled at her.
 
“Well…” Krul began “after administering the mandatory vaccinations to your
sons, we noticed that Yuri’s body was rejecting some of the vaccinations that
beta infants usually receive. We ran a couple of blood tests on him, and it
turns out, that Yuri possesses some traces of alpha genetics.”
 
Mika and Yuu blinked at her. “How is that possible?” Mika asked. “What does
that mean?”
 
“We don't know.” Krul replied. “That’s why I wanted to keep him here, for
further testing. In private, so that nobody else will know. He isn’t showing
any signs of abnormality at present, but who knows what will happen once he
gets older. Although, he does seem very drawn to Kai. They both won't sleep
unless the other is sleeping next to them. I hope you can understand, that this
is a phenomenon which has never happened before. They need to be monitored
closely for any signs of change, especially in Yuri’s genetic makeup.”
 
Yuu held Yuri away from the alpha woman defensively. His answer clear. “They
are coming home with US, Krul. We’re their parents, if something happens, we
will handle it ourselves.” He was face to face with her now. Yuu close behind
him. There’s nothing wrong with my son. I will NOT let you experiment on him.”
He brushed passed her to make his way to the stairs. Before they exited Krul’s
estate, Mika turned back to her. “These are your grandchildren, and I know
you’re trying to look after them. But try something like this again, and you
won’t even be aloud to come within a fifty foot radius of them.” And with that
they left, Yuu catching the guilt ridden expression on her proud face.
 
~
 
Mika hesitated opening the door to their apartment once they reached it. He
hadn’t been back here since the day Kai and Yuri were born. When Yuu lay
bleeding out in his nest. The day Yuu had died…The evidence of those harrowing
memories lay beyond this door, and it terrified Mika to have to see it again.
 
“Mika?” Yuu was standing with both babies in his arms, Mika’s jacket wrapped
around them for warmth. Kai and Yuri began to wriggle, making Yuu nervous.
 
“S-sorry, Yuu-chan.” He unlocked the door and stepped inside, turning on the
light. “What the-”
 
It was spotless. The air smelled clean and fresh, the forgotten groceries from
that night were gone. The dishes were all cleaned. The floor appeared as if it
was recently mopped. The scent of fabric softener clung to the air. Mika took
one of the twins from Yuu’s arms, and scoped out the apartment. No traces of
blood or scent of distress.
 
“What’s wrong Mika?” Yuu asked curiously.
 
“I haven't been here since you were admitted to the hospital.” Mika said as he
peeked inside the baby room.
 
“What?! Then who cleaned?!” Yuu went into the kitchen, opening the fridge to
find it fully stocked with new food.
 
“I don't know.” Mika replied. “I can’t scent anyone.”
 
Yuu noticed a note on the kitchen counter then, and picked it up to read it;
 
‘NO NEED TO THANK US! JUST LET ME BABYSIT AND INVITE US OVER FOR DINNER AND A
PLAYDATE!’
 
Yuu smiled. Remembering when Shinoa and Yoichi came to Mika’s hospital room the
other day to bring him a change of clothes. They must have seen and scented the
mess that was left behind. Feeling mildly embarrassed, Yuu called out to Mika
“Yoichi and Shinoa did this.”
 
“Really?” Mika came into the kitchen. Seeing the note. “Well, we sure do owe
them. That’s for sure.”
 
Yuu nuzzled Kai’s fluffy hair, feeling very tired suddenly. “Sleep?”
 
Mika nodded, “Hold on.” He reached into a cabinet, pulling out a pack of
suppressants and handing it to Yuu.
 
“But, I’m not in heat.” Yuu said, puzzled.
 
“And I still managed to knot you.” Mika argued. “I’m not sure what happened, or
how that happened...but I think you should take these just to be safe.”
 
Though it bothered Yuu to take suppressants, he wasn’t ready to go through all
that came with being pregnant again. He swallowed them down, following Mika
down the hall. But before they came to the baby room, Yuu stopped at his
nesting room, opening the door. Eyes lighting up when he saw that everything
had been replaced, and Yoichi had set up one of his amazing nests for Yuu. “Oi!
Mika!” The alpha turned to him, seeing Yuu smiling brightly. “Lets sleep in
here with the kids!” Cozying up in all of that softness with Kai and Yuri
snuggled between them sounded so damned right, he didn't even wait for Mika to
reply. Laying Kai down on one of the soft cushions, Yuu removed his pants and
jacket and piled more cushions around them in a circle to lay in and throwing
fluffy blankets over him and swaddling Kai in a smaller one. Mika chuckled at
his omega’s antics. Admitting to himself the appeal of Yuu’s idea, and swaddled
Yuri in next to Kai and undressed to lay atop the futons and cushions.
 
They lay in silence for what seemed like hours. Watching the twins sleep and
staring into eachothers eyes. Stroking soft hair, and tiny fingers and smiling
at the little cooing noises their children made. They reveled in this small
moment they had to just...be. From the outside looking in, it might not appear
as some life changing revelation to just lay together as a family. But for Yuu
and Mika, it was. They were finally together. Finally had a moment of pure
peace. For all the hardships they had endured to get to this small point in
time, neither would have changed it for the world. They had each other, and
they would kill anyone who tried to get in the way of this. This was the reason
for their existence. This was what they were born to have with one another, to
create together. A family of their own. After all this time, they finally felt
like they were home.

Chapter Notes

     I'm so sad I had to end this, but ya know what they say...
     Anyways, Thank you all for the lovely words and encouragement!!!
     This has been so much fun to write, and so rewarding in many ways!
     XOXO I love you all!
     So without further ado, here's the last chapter of Yuu-chan in Beta
     Land.
     <3 Enjoy
See the end of the chapter for more notes
‘Yuu had thought that the hardships in his life were over. That through all of
the misery he and his mate had endured, he was finally done with his suffering.
At least for a while. But no...he was terribly wrong…For nothing could compare
to the agony and frustration, that was planning a bachelor party with Shinoa…’
 
“Stop being so fucking dramatic!” Shinoa snapped.
 
Yuu dodged the dildo she sent flying at his face. “Was I thinking out loud
again?” he smirked.
 
Yoichi giggled from the sidelines. “Your self narrative is kind of overkill
Yuu-kun. Come on, cheer up! It’s going to be fun!”
 
Yuu rolled his eyes. “I don’t NEED a bachelor party! I’m hardly a bachelor,
Shinoa. I’ve been bonded for almost a year!”
 
“But you still need a birthday party! So...how does that saying go?...Two birds
with one stone?” She winked.
 
Yuu sighed, regretting telling his friends of his upcoming birthday, and
informing them of his and Mika’s engagement. He should have known Shinoa would
come up with something like this. Thank god she wasn’t the wedding coordinator.
 
And now Yoichi was taking Shinoa’s side?! ‘The betrayal!’ Yuu silently promised
to himself that he will embarrass the living shit out of his fellow omega once
he and Kimizuki were married, by throwing the most obnoxious bachelor party
ever.
 
Although...Krul wasn’t any better. As Mika had warned, telling Krul about their
wedding would result from Yuu’s hopes of a small, family wedding, into a huge
event including nearly the entire compound. She seemed to think that throwing
an elaborate wedding would make up for her practically kidnapping his twins.
Yuu saw it as her losing more and more points as Kai and Yuri’s grandmother. He
wasn’t a fan a big events to begin with, let alone ones revolved around
himself. But as fate would have it, this would be the first wedding the
compound has ever had. And with it being Krul’s adopted son the one getting
married? There was going to fanfare. And since Krul was the only one with the
power to legalize their marriage, Yuu had no choice but to go along with it.
 
A god damned bachelor party on the other hand? He fought against it tooth and
nail. “I’m not helping you plan out a night of misery. Will you just let me
leave already?”
 
“Don’t be so salty Yuu-kun!” Yoichi patted him on the back. “We need you to
pick out things Mika-kun would like too!”
 
Yuu held up one of the “heat aids” (which was an abnormally large purple
dildo), saying “I don’t think Mika would be interested in anything from an
Omega shop! What the hell is he supposed to do with THIS?” He practically
shoved it in Yoichi’s smirking face. “Shove it up his ass?”
 
“Nooo~” Yoichi sing songed. “Shove it up YOUR ass!”
 
Yuu gave him a blank look, raising a brow at his smirking friend. “I’m pretty
sure we BOTH know, that Mika is properly equipped to do that himself.”
 
Yoichi flushed at Yuu’s statement. Surprised at how casually Yuu had brought up
the past, without any animosity behind his words.
 
Yuu smiled victoriously for shutting the other omega up. Yuu didn’t care
anymore about what had happened in the past. ‘It’s MY claiming mark he wears on
his neck. Mine and nobody else’s!’ It gave Yuu a sense of power to be able to
mark his alpha. And Mika wore it proudly, despite the surprised and curious
looks he would receive from other alphas, and the teasing from Mitsuba and
Kimizuki.
 
Though, nobody dared to comment on the several bonding marks over Yuu’s neck
and shoulders. His scent alone said it all, and spoke for itself of Mika’s
possessiveness over him. Other alpha’s would give Yuu a wide berth wherever he
went. Knowing that his apha would rip their heads off for getting too close or
angering the omega. Other omegas on the other hand, were drawn to Yuu and the
powerful scent he emanated. Especially the unbonded omegas, because Yuu’s scent
meant protection and power and matehood. All the things omegas instinctively
craved. Even Asuramaru was uncharacteristically drawn to him, behaving fondly.
Yuu found it odd, and frankly, he wasn’t interested in cuddling up to any omega
other than Yoichi.
 
Even the omegan shopkeepers were especially nice to him. Which Yuu had never
been used to, since growing up, shopkeepers always eyed him like he was some
sort of delinquent. But here, they would fawn over him and offer him discounts
and were especially helpful. Although, Yuu was pretty sure it had something to
do with the upcoming wedding. Shinoa took full advantage of it nevertheless…
 
“Hey shopkeep!” He heard Shinoa shout from behind him. “We need something for
our dear Yuu-san to wear on his wedding night! Something that will make his
alpha come in his pants as soon as he see’s him!”
 
“Sh-SHINOA! What the hell-!?” Yuu sputtered
 
The shopkeeper smiled sweetly at the group. “I’ve got the perfect thing!” she
said, scurrying off to find him god knows what.
 
Yuu facepalmed. ‘For fucks sake…’ He just wanted to go home to his mate and
kids.
 
~
 
After THAT horrifying experience at the omega store, the three of them finally
left, with Shinoa hefting several bags of merchandise, to go in search for
something for Yuu to wear for the wedding day. The compound didn’t necessarily
have clothing stores or malls. They had a commissary for food, appliances,
household items and casual clothing brought in by wholesale companies in the
mainlands, but things like formal wear and other luxurious items weren’t
liberated very often. For things like this, they needed to see a seamstress.
Mika had come here with Kimizuki the other day to get a suit for himself made,
and had scheduled for Yuu to come get fitted for one as well. Apparently, his
alpha wanted to be old fashioned and not let them see each other all dressed up
until the day of the wedding. Yuu thought it was silly, but the proposition
made Mika happy.
 
“So, what kind of dress are you going to wear Yuu?” Shinoa asked. “Are you
going with the short style? Or long and elegant? You can’t wear white obviously
since you’re not a Cherry Boy anymore, then again, who’s really gonna call you
out on it? It’s your big day, princess!”
 
“Ugh...I’m not wearing a dress Shinoa.” Yuu said exasperatedly.
 
“Well, I know for sure Mika isn’t the bride in this situation.” She pointed
out.
 
Yuu rolled his eyes. “Neither of us are wearing a dress! There’s no ‘bride and
groom’, it’s just...us.”
 
Shinoa looked at him curiously. “Well, technically, SOMEBODY is the bride Yuu-
san. And that would be YOU!”
 
“How did Mika propose to you anyway Yuu? You haven’t told us yet!” Yoichi
chirped from his other side.
 
Yuu blushed, wondering if he should even tell them the truth. Would it hurt
Mika’s pride if they knew? He didn’t think it would...he seemed extremely happy
that Yuu had asked him.
 
Knowing that Shinoa and Yoichi would pester him until he spilled details, he
decided to tell them, and hope they wouldn’t tease Mika about it. “He didn’t
propose to me. I asked Mika if he wanted to get married. That’s all there is to
it.” He mumbled at the ground.
 
Yoichi and Shinoa blinked at him for a few moments. “So, you proposed to
Mika?!” Yoichi asked with surprise.
 
“AWWW! Yuu-saaan~!” Shinoa crooned. “Did you get down on one knee and present
him with a ring and everything?!”
 
Yuu slowed his steps before stopping completely. ‘A ring?’ Yuu hadn’t given any
thought to getting Mika a ring. Was Mika going to give HIM a ring? “Shit...I
didn’t think about rings…” Now he felt awful for not even considering it in the
first place.
 
“How could you not think about a ring?!” Shinoa was aghast. “That’s the whole
symbol of getting married! You’re supposed to exchange rings and say your vows
and all of that shit! Haven’t you ever been to a wedding before?”
 
“Um...no…”
 
Yoichi patted him on the back. “Don’t worry Yuu! We’ll find a ring to give to
Mika!”
 
“We can’t have you embarrassing yourself on the big day when Mika gives you one
and you have nothing to give him in return!” Shinoa added.
 
Yuu contemplated this for a moment. “But...what if he doesn’t get ME one?” What
if Mika didn’t think they were necessary? What if their bonding marks were all
they needed? All of this was so far beyond his general knowledge, that he
realized more and more how ignorant he could still be.
 
“Then give it to him before the wedding.” Yoichi amended. “That’ll give him
time to find you one in return, if he didn’t already get one.”
 
All of this was making Yuu’s head hurt. He didn’t want Mika to feel obligated
to get him one if he hadn’t planned on it. But he DID want to give one to his
alpha. Yuu didn’t care if he got one in return. He would think of a good way to
give it to him, that wouldn’t be too awkward.
 
~
 
With the suit fitted, and Shinoa off to take her purchases to her apartment and
Yoichi going home as well, Yuu was left to his own devices about the ring
situation. Who could help him with this? He didn’t know anybody that had been
married before- ‘Oh wait! Yes I do!’
 
~
 
Yuu knocked lightly on Guren’s office door, feeling awkward because, like most
days, he scented Shinya in the office with his father. ‘Doing who the fuck
knows what.’ He grimaced at the mere thought of it, before he heard Guren’s
voice yell for him to enter.
 
Luckily, there wasn’t that strange smell of desire overwhelming his senses this
time. Although there were always undertones of it coming from the two beta
males, directed towards each other. ‘So fucking weird…’ Then again, weird was
the new normal in Yuu’s life.
 
“H-hey, dad…” Yuu said softly. Seeing how his father and Shinya were pouring
over a large table with a map atop it. A map of the mainlands from the looks of
it-
 
“Hm? Oh, it's you?” His authoritative voice softened at the sight of his son,
sounding vaguely surprised to see him. “What brings you here? Everything
alright?”
 
Ever since Yuu had gotten his children back from Krul and settled into
parenthood with Mika, Guren had been uncharacteristically kind to Yuuichiro.
 
And characterically demanding when it came to him wanting to spend time with
the twins.
 
It was odd, since Yuu had never had a close relationship with either of his
parents. But he supposed the change was...nice. “I wanted to ask you about
something...about the whole getting married thing.”
 
Guren turned to face him completely. Then shared a glance with Shinya before
moving over to his desk to perch on the edge of it. “Getting cold feet now?”
 
“Huh? Cold feet?”
 
Guren rolled his eyes. “Its an expression. Are you feeling like you don’t want
to marry Mika anymore or something?”
 
Yuu blanched. What the hell gave him that idea? “What? No! Of course I want to
marry him! It's just...I’m not really sure how this works. With alphas and
omegas I mean.” He paused to fidget. But when Guren remained silent he
continued. “Like, do they exchange rings and all that? Or is that just a beta
tradition?”
 
Guren appeared thoughtful for a moment, giving Yuu a measured look. “Honestly?
I’m not too sure either. An alpha and omega marriage hasn’t been witnessed
in...well, I don't even know when. I’ve never actually seen one. But
considering how you’re free to live however you like at this place, you can
choose to do whatever you feel is right.”
 
“That's the other thing.” Yuu sighed. “I would like to give him one. But, I
don’t really know where to buy one. Or even make one, maybe?”
 
Guren’s face remained passive, even when Shinya beamed at him in a way that
showed off his adoration for both Guren and Yuuichiro.
 
“Hold on a sec.” Guren said after a few moments. He went to his desk, pulling a
wad of keys from one of the drawers, then moving over to a safe that was built
into the far wall. “I was able to bring along some family heirlooms before we
made our escape here. Never really thought I’d get to pass any of them down,
but…” He pulled a small wooden box from the safe before locking it again, then
walked over to Yuu and handed it to him. “Here.”
 
Yuu stared at the box for a few seconds. As if wondering if something was going
to pop out of it as some sort of prank. When nothing happened, he ran his
fingers over the ornate little carvings on the lid and then opened it. Inside,
was a band, made of one half of it gold, and the other of what looked like pure
jade. It gleamed in the light like it was new, but the tiny etchings in the
gold made it apparent that it was very old. Although, it was no less stunning.
 
“It belonged to your great-great grandfather.” Guren said with a nonchalant
grace that only he could pull off in any situation. “Believe it or not, we have
alpha and omega ancestors. This was your alpha ancestor’s ring.”
 
Yuu snapped his head up to Guren, who was now sitting behind his desk and
perusing more paperwork. Yuu could sense that the thoughtful gesture was as
unfamiliar to Guren as is was to him. “umm…”
 
“If you don’t want it, there’s a guy here who likes to pirate jewelry from rich
beta in the mainlands,” Guren stated without looking up from his paperwork.
“You can most likely find something there if you-”
 
“No!” Yuu blurted. “No....It’s just…” He looked back down at the valuable ring
in the box. And had a strange feeling. A warm feeling. And for some reason, in
this moment, despite everything else that had happened, Yuu realised his father
really loved him. Was going so far as to give him family heirlooms. He felt his
eyes moisten and throat go tight from holding back his silly emotional tears.
“Thank you, dad...really. I-I think he’ll love it.”
 
Guren smiled softly, more of twitching of his lips really, then nodded towards
the door. “Better get going, Yuu. I’m sure you still have a lot to do.”
 
Yuu nodded in response, then pocketed the box and made his way to the door-
 
“And you better bring those kids next time you come by!” Guren shouted after
his son.
 
~
 
You’ve seriously NEVER drank before?!” Shinoa shouted, a bit too unnecessarily
loud. “Jesus...you really ARE a cherry boy!”
 
“I have two kids Shinoa! What the fuck?-”
 
“A cherry boy in OTHER things, Yuu!” She lined up a row of six tequila shots.
The first, and the last, they were going to have. Alcohol was a luxury, and
very hard to obtain in Krul’s compound. How Shinoa managed to procure it, he
didn't know. The rest of the alcohol was thrown into a large pitcher of what
looked like orange juice mixed with some other kind of juice, giving it a neon
pink color.
 
“Bottoms up!” Shinoa announced when everyone had a shot glass in their hand.
 
Following suit, Yuu threw his head back and downed the shot. Immediately, he
regretted it.
 
~
 
Despite all of the phallic decorations, gag gifts and childish antics, Yuu
found himself having the most fun he’s had in a long time.
 
Guren and Shinya were babysitting Kai, Yuri and Shichi. And Mitsuba, who
volunteered to be the most sober one to watch after everyone while they got
drunk and let loose, was also the mediator when Yuu started getting
increasingly sloppy. And increasingly daring while they were sitting around Yuu
and Mika’s kotatsu playing truth or dare.
 
“Alrighty Yuu-san! Truth or dare?” Shinoa sang.
 
Yuu smiled over the rim of his red solo cup of mystery drink. “Dare.”
 
Shinoa smirked. “Give Yoichi-san a kiss!”
 
Yuu rolled his eyes at her request. “S’riously?” He slurred. “I kissed him
lossa times! That’s nothin’ new!”
 
“Yeah, but me and Shinoa haven’t got to see!” Mitsuba chimed in. A dark blush
tinted her cheeks.
 
‘Weirdos…’ Yuu leaned over to peck Yoichi on the mouth. “There. Happy?”
 
“Pfftt! You’re not kissing your grandma!” Shinoa scoffed. “Give him a good one
Yuu-san!”
 
Yuu sighed, then grasped Yoichi by his face, almost losing his composure at
Yoichi’s blushing face and wide blinking eyes, before kissing him thoroughly.
Even going so far as to tongue his mouth sloppily. He pulled away with a wet
smack. “How bout now?”
 
When he looked back over at the group, everyone was blushing madly. Shinoa’s
shoulders were shaking with pent up laughter, before her gaffaw burst from her
lips behind the hand covering her mouth. “Oh my god Yuu!” She rolled onto her
back, giggling stupidly.
 
“WHAT?!” Yuu didn’t know what the big deal was. Or why Mika’s lips were
twitching so much. Or why Kimizuki and the others were blushing like a bunch of
virgins.
 
Shinoa’s giggling finally died down. “Just give all of the alphas a nosebleed
why don’t ya?”
 
He looked over at Yoichi, he was giggling too. “Yuu-kun, you’re so cute when
you’re oblivious.”
 
“Cute?!” Yuu drained his drink. ‘So alphas like watching omegas make out, eh?’
He wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, then rolled over to straddle
Yoichi’s hips. Ignoring the other omegas startled squeak as he melded their
lips together again. Yuu didn't know what possessed him to do this, but his
drunken mind was telling him that this was the best. idea. ever!
 
~
 
After Yuu and Yoichi had to forcefully be separated from their makeout session
before they made Omega Porn, Shinoa deemed it a good time to start playing
drinking games. Which led to her bringing out that giant purple dildo, which
led to Yuu and Shinoa leaving it on Ferid’s doormat and ringing the doorbell
and running off, which led to Yoichi and Shinoa streaking down the royal
apartment building’s hallways, then bumping into Ferid, who graciously thanked
Yuu and Shinoa for the kind gift left at his door. Then Mika and Mitsuba having
to wrangle a drunk Kimizuki away while he threatened to kill Ferid for having
seeing Yoichi naked.
 
That was as far as Yuu’s memory extended. And when he awoke the next morning,
him and Yoichi were naked in the nesting room alone. His eyes widened when he
sat up. ‘What the…’ Yuu covered Yoichi with a blanket, then wrapped another
around himself and padded out of the nesting room to the living room.
 
“Welcome to the land of the living!” Shinoa greeted, or more like yelled, when
Yuu shuffled into view.
 
“You look like shit.” Kimizuki added.
 
Mika smiled and handed Yuu a cup of strong coffee, which Yuu downed nearly in
one gulp. “How’d you sleep Yuu-chan?”
 
Yuu groaned, and once again took note of his clothingless state under his
blanket. Mika didn’t seem angry or anything… “W-what happened?” He croaked.
“Why am I…?” He looked down at himself.
 
Mika simply chuckled and scooped him up to bring him to their bedroom. Plopping
Yuu on the bed to rifle through drawers for pajamas. “You tried to go streaking
after Yoichi did, ‘to make it fair,’ but then you just ended up face-planting
outside of the front door before you could get anywhere.” Mika laughed. “So we
just put you and Yoichi in your nest room since he had passed out as well.”
Mika slid some sweatpants up Yuu’s legs. “It was actually pretty entertaining.
You’re a good time when you’re drunk”
 
Yuu blushed, saying in a teasing tone “I’m always a good time!”
 
“I know you are…” Mika kissed at his neck, then his cheek and nuzzled his ear.
“Yuu-chan…” Mika breathed between kisses. “Has anybody,” another peck “ever
told you,” and another, “that you stink?”
 
Yuu gave him an indignant glare. “Way to ruin the moment Mika!” He wobbled to
his feet muttering about arrogant alphas.
 
Mika pulled him back into his arms, laughing at Yuu’s huffy attitude. “I can’t
wait to marry you tomorrow…” He whispered to his omega.
 
Yuu went pliant in his arms, smiling and wrapping his arms around the blonde.
“Me too.”
 
~
 
The area where the wedding was going to be taking place, was set up with all of
the traditional Pagan decorations. Complete with a Maypole and the sacred
circle made with flower petals and river stones. The spectators and guests
either stood, or sat in the grass encircling Yuu and Mika inside of the sacred
circle, with their friends and family standing the closest.
 
Yuu didn’t have a preference on how the ceremony took place. Mika was a Pagan,
so a Pagan wedding, or Handfasting, it was. There was still some snow on the
ground in various placing in the large forested park, but the grass was a
bright green, and flowers began budding with the first remnants of spring. No
nervousness, just a sense of calm. Of finality. Yuu and Mika were to be bound
in every possible way that they could be. And Yuu couldn’t be happier.
 
The crisp breeze tugged at Yuu and Mika’s tailored white lawn shirts and pants,
bare toes curling in the soft grass. They smiled at eachother when they heard
their twins cooing and cackling in their friend’s laps as they sat closeby with
Guren. It gave Yuu and Mika a renewed sense of vigor as they stood inside of
the sacred circle, hand in hand as the officiant began the ceremony:
 
“Please join hands. As your hands are joined, so are your lives, Holding each
other, Caressing each other, Supporting each other, Loving each other.” The
Officiant said as he tied the ribbon around Yuu and Mika’s hands.
 
“I, Mikaela Shindo, promise you, Yuuichiro Hyakuya, that I will be your mate
from this day forward, to love and respect you, to support and to hold you, to
make you laugh and to be there when you cry. To softly kiss you when you are
hurting, and to be your companion and your friend, on this journey that we will
now make together.
 
Now, Yuu was getting nervous, having to repeat everything to Mika. But he
managed to get through the vows without much stumbling.
 
“Mikaela and Yuuichiro, are now bound together.” The Officiant said, untying
the ribbon.
 
“We have come together here in celebration of the joining together of Yuuichiro
and Mikaela. Others would ask, at this time, who gives these two in marriage,
but, I ask simply if they come of their own will and if you have your family's
blessing.”
 
“Yes, It’s true.” Yuu and Mika said together.
 
The Officiant continued. “Know now before you go further, that since your lives
have crossed in this life you have formed ties between each other. As you seek
to enter this state of matrimony you should strive to make real, the ideals
which give meaning to both this ceremony and the institution of marriage. With
full awareness, know that within this circle you are not only declaring your
intent to be handfasted before your friends and family, but you speak that
intent also to your creative higher powers.
The promises made today and the ties that are bound here greatly strengthen
your union; they will cross the years and lives of each soul's growth. Do you
still seek to enter this ceremony?”
 
“Yes, We Seek to Enter.” They said in unison.
 
“In times past it was believed that the human soul shared characteristics with
all things divine. It is this belief which assigned virtues to the cardinal
directions; East, South, West and North. It is in this tradition that a
blessing is offered in support of this ceremony.
Blessed be this union with the gifts of the East. Communication of the heart,
mind, and body. Fresh beginnings with the rising of each Sun. The knowledge of
the growth found in the sharing of silences.
Blessed be this union with the gifts of the South. Warmth of hearth and home
The heat of the heart's passion The light created by both To lighten the
darkest of times.
Blessed be this union with the gifts of the West. The deep commitments of the
lake The swift excitement of the river The refreshing cleansing of the rain The
all encompassing passion of the sea.
Blessed be this union with the gifts of the North Firm foundation on which to
build Fertility of the fields to enrich your lives A stable home to which you
may always return.
Each of these blessings from the four cardinal directions emphasizes those
things which will help you build a happy and successful union. Yet they are
only tools. Tools which you must use together in order to create what you seek
in this union. I bid you look into each other's eyes.”
 
The Officiant draped, and tied six chords around Yuu and Mika’s hands with each
vow made to each other. Promises to share one another’s pain, burdens, laughter
and dreams. Use any anger towards one another to temper the strength of their
union, and to honor each other.
 
When all six chords were placed over their hands, the Officiant began tying
them together, saying “The knots of this binding are not formed by these chords
but instead by your vows. Either of you may drop the chords, for as always, you
hold in your own hands the making of breaking of this union.”
 
Once all the chords were tied together, they were removed and placed on the
altar behind the Officiant.
 
Then, came the exchanging of ‘tokens of matrimony.’ Nervously, Yuu reached into
his pocket and slipped out the ring he had procured for his mate. With a shaky
hand, he slipped it onto Mika’s long slender finger. Caressing them softly, and
becoming very aware of just what Mika’s hands were capable of. They have caused
death, destruction and pain to others. But with Yuu, they gave him pleasure,
comfort, safety. Could be hard as steel and kind and gentle at the same time.
Yuu always had felt the love in them when Mika touched him.
 
Even now, more than ever, when the alpha caressed his face and brought his
other hand up to clasp a necklace around Yuu’s neck. The shining circular
medallion had celtic words engraved in it. “Our vows.” Mika supplied.
 
And before the Officiant could even grant permission, they kissed softly.
Sealing the bond. Finalizing their union.
 
~
 
The reception was in full swing, with music and dancing and enough food to feed
the entire compound. Which, in actuality, nearly the entire compound had
attended. Yuu didn’t realize how many people were here for the festivities,
until the two finally got to sit at their table. Gifts piled around them as
they received blessings from the guests and awed over their bond and their
children.
 
Frankly, Yuu hated the amount of attention. He wanted more than anything to
just go home with his family.
 
“Just until after sundown, Yuu-chan.” Mika whispered in his ear. “Then we can
slip away.”
 
~
 
Krul came up to them some time later. The sun was finally about to set, as Mika
and Yuu watched hundreds and hundreds of floating lanterns litter the sky
above. Kai and Yuri in either of their arms, and feeling relatively peaceful in
the moment.
 
“I hope you both are enjoying yourself.”
 
Yuu nodded and faced her. “Yes, thank you for all of this, Krul. It’s greatly
appreciated.”
 
Krul smiled, almost a sad expression underneath her cheery facade. “I hope, we
can let bygones be bygones. That we could all be a family, someday.”
 
“I would like that.” Yuu said with a smile.
 
“By the way…” Krul handed him an envelope. “this is certificate of ownership,
for the orphanage you wanted to run. It’s finished being built, so we hope to
see it up and running shortly.”
 
Yuu gaped, hardly believing she was actually giving him his wish for an
orphanage so casually. “T-thank you! I hope I won't disappoint.”
 
Mika squeezed Yuu’s hand gently, then bowed to Krul. “This means a lot to us.”
 
Krul seemed pleased. “I will speak to you again in a couple of days. I’m sure
you both will need some time after all of this is over. Those gifts over there
alone would likely take days to unwrap!”
 
Yuu almost groaned in frustration and the thought of opening them all. “No idea
where we’re going to fit all of that!”
 
“Come by my house when you want the keys to the orphanage.” Krul said. “I’ll
see you both later. And congratulations. Yuuichiro? I’m very happy our dear
Mika has you as a mate.”
 
~
 
Krul met up with Ferid and Crowley back at her home. “Lacus and Renee have
returned?”
 
“Yes, They’ve been washed and wait for you in the study.” Ferid said.
 
Krul entered the room briskly, eyeing her two soldiers she had sent into the
bowels of the JIDA facility. “So?” She started. “What news do you have on
Kureto’s successor?”
The two young men smiled menacingly. “I’m sure you’ll be pleased with our
investigations.”
Chapter End Notes
     Ooops! Whats this? A cliffhanger? 0_o
     hhehehehehe
     So here's why;
     The war with JIDA is far from over. And eventually I'll explore more
     of their war and the lives of Kai, Yuri, Shichi, and the rest of the
     gang in the future.
     With a time skip involving the kids more grown up :) but for now,
     that concludes this tale! Yuu and Mika live happily ever after (until
     they need to go to war again)
     Thank you for reading!!!
