Life at the End

Chapter 37
When he stepped back into the hallway, Hakoda was outside waiting for him. Zuko startled slightly at the sight of him and the Alpha grinned in amusement before ambling forward.
“How’d you know I was here?” Zuko asked as the man wrapped him in a tight hug. The Omega smiled into his shoulder, burying his face in the Alpha’s scent gland to inhale deeply of his pheromones.
“I could smell you a mile away, Omega.” He murmured as he nuzzled his nose into his cheek. Zuko hid his grin in the Alpha’s shoulder. “What were you talking about with them?” Hakoda asked as he pulled away and started with him towards the kitchen.
“When I saw Sakari in the forest, I grabbed her glasses and compass since I couldn’t grab her.” Hakoda blinked once in shock, and the Omega continued. “I just wanted to somehow bring them something. Anything. I don’t know. I just knew how I’d feel if it were you or Bato, and it would be even worse for them because Sakari was theirs.”
“We are yours.” Hakoda countered.
“I meant that they were all mated. Like they truly belonged to one another.” Zuko explained.
“Well, we could too.” Hakoda said, stopping the Omega to give him a serious look. “Bato told me you asked him to be your consort. If you’re taking things public, and you cannot mate with your Beta wife, I do not believe it’s that much of a stretch to say you can mate with your consorts. I know it’s a bit soon to consider, but I don’t want you to live your life alongside us believing it an impossibility or thinking of yourself as some sort of outsider to mine and Bato’s mating bond.”
“I- you’re sure?” Zuko asked. It felt like a lame question but he was at a loss for words. He shook his head in shock.
“Zuko, we should all talk about it together. I know you’re concerned you’re a third wheel of sorts, but that’s not what this is about. Besides, a tricycle won’t ride without its third wheel.”
“So I am a third wheel?” Zuko asked with a grin.
“Yes, but on a tricycle.” Hakoda chuckled. “Let’s go get some food.”
“No, you should go lay down with Bato, and I’ll bring you both some food after finding someone to get me new robes and checking on Izumi.” Zuko said patting his chest. The Alpha gave him a suspicious look and the Omega grinned. “I’m fine. Really. I’ve been worried about you guys being separated for so long. I want you to have some time with each other.”
Hakoda’s face softened, and he grabbed Zuko’s hand and kissed his wrist, nuzzling his nose over the scent gland there. The Omega bit his lip at the Alpha’s tenderness. It was almost hard to imagine why he ever found Hakoda intimidating. Then the scrape of fang across the gland had his heart skipping suddenly, and the Alpha grinned as he tugged Zuko into his body to plant a hard kiss on his lips.
“You know, when we separated in the palace, I was shocked by how badly I wanted to stay with you. So much so that I stopped on my way and contemplated leaving the men behind and going back for you. Nothing would make me consider something like that except for love.” Hakoda murmured into the kiss. Zuko’s stomach flipped with a small gasp. He pulled away then to fix an assessing look on the Alpha.
“You may have proposed to Bato under the aurora borealis, but if that’s you saying you love me, then you may have used up all your romance in that one go.”
Hakoda snorted and leaned his forehead against Zuko’s. “I thought it was pretty romantic.”
“I’ll give you another chance.” Zuko grinned.
“At the waterfall overlook Piandao took you to?” Hakoda snickered. Bato really did tell Hakoda everything.
“Now.” Zuko countered.
“I love you.” Hakoda whispered and captured his mouth in another kiss, hand coming up to cradle his cheek. Their lips moved in a slow dance until the spice of arousal entered their scent and the Alpha pressed his body closer, his cock hard against the Omega’s stomach. Zuko moaned softly, and broke the kiss, but stayed close, reluctant to separate from the Alpha now. “Hurry back.” Hakoda said huskily before pulling away to head back towards the room. Zuko watched after him dazedly with a soft grin.
“Oh, I love you too.” The Omega called after him, and Hakoda shot him a broad smile before ducking through the door.
The next few months went by in an overworked daze. The trial came and went. Apparently brainwashing your followers so they considered you a personification of Agni himself made for pretty damning evidence to those that weren’t brainwashed. Zuko announced that he was naming Hakoda Interim Eastern Representative and letting the Southern Water Tribe people move in, which was predictably met with mixed reviews, but not as negative as Zuko had worried over. Bato and Hakoda both assured him that they could handle it.
And it ended up they could. After distributing the funds Zuko always intended his people to get and holding regular town meetings in which people were encouraged to discuss openly any and all concerns or questions, it didn’t take long for positive reviews to come in. The economy jump started in the district as well with Kai no longer purposely sabotaging it and pocketing funds. Displaced easterners moved back to the area as well. Zuko visited fairly regularly in the beginning, anxious to ensure the Southern Water Tribe people were settling in well. When it became apparent things were progressing smoothly, Zuko still came up with reasons to visit.
“Hey,” Zuko breathed as he jumped down from his horse into Bato’s waiting arms. The Alpha didn’t step away once the Omega was on his feet. He stayed close, hands lingering on his waist. He still hadn’t officially named Bato or Hakoda consort with how busy everything was, and he was certain people were starting to notice. Even now people watched them from behind newspapers and market stands. “I figured I should make sure the crops are coming in well where we removed the salt from the soil.” He said softly.
“Isn’t that work for the farmers tending them?” Hakoda teased as he came to wrap Zuko in a hug from the other side. He leaned forward to breathe in the Omega’s ear, “it’d be more romantic if you just said you wanted to see us.”
“Yeah, but now Mai can’t complain that I’m not working.” Zuko chuckled.
“She wouldn’t anyway.” Bato rolled his eyes. It was true. It’s not like it wasn’t obvious what he was doing. She practically pushed him out the door sometimes.
“I think you’re the only one worried about not working.” Hakoda added, then glanced to where more people were peeking around objects to spy on them.
A young child stopped to watch openly and his mother reached out and tugged him behind a sign where she was trying to watch discreetly. They all chuckled at the sight and the mother walked out, looking embarrassed. She smiled and nodded to them before walking away, dragging her son beside her.
Zuko was relieved to see how well everyone seemed to take to the idea of him being with the Alphas. Everyone in the Eastern District whispered and giggled but nobody glared or shouted. People around the Caldera made passive comments about what a shame it was that he couldn't mate with his wife and shouldn't an Omega as high bred as himself take someone as a mate? The frequency and brashness of the comments only grew after Mai announced Ty Lee as her consort and started taking her around to parties and gatherings. The general consensus among the wealthier crowd at the palace gatherings was that it was Zuko’s turn now. Zuko had been thinking the same more often lately, and he was pretty sure he knew why.
“Can we go inside and talk?” He asked, biting his lip.
“Yes, absolutely.” Hakoda said as he took the reins to the horse and started for their house.
It was the same house Kai had lived in except where he had lived in it alone and left the atmosphere hauntingly sterile with unwarranted luxuries, Hakoda and Bato had turned it into what Zuko imagined a real home was. Katara, Aang, and Sokka had all moved in and had their own rooms, so none of the space went unused. Even upon walking inside, there were signs of life everywhere. A half finished painting sat on the dining room table, clothes mending supplies on the arm of a couch. Zuko’s house warming gift, a painting of the ice caps of the Southern Watertribe, hung on the wall alongside ceremonial relics and tapestries and Sokka’s competitive rendering of the same exact painting looking more like an abstract homage. The sight made him smile.
“Sooo,” Bato started, “what is it? You’re making me nervous.” He settled onto an armchair nearby and leaned forward.
Zuko turned on them and wrung his hands. “You?” He asked with an anxious smile. “I’m the one that’s nervous.” He breathed. They both raised their eyebrows at him and Hakoda settled down onto the couch.
“You have no reason to be nervous around us.” Hakoda said.
“I’m nervous around everyone.” Zuko retorted with a huff of laughter. “I’ve just been thinking about you both a lot lately. In different contexts but all the time, and, well, I--” he took a deep breath before blurting the rest. “I’m going to go into heat.”
“Oh,” Bato said lamely with wide eyes and then paused and looked him up and down, a look of interest lighting in his eyes. “What are these contexts again?”
“Now?” Hakoda asked.
“What? No, I go into preheat first.” Zuko snorted. Sometimes he forgot how little experience they had with Omegas. Mostly because his own people had stolen them all away. He’d have to teach them with time.
“When?” Hakoda asked, leaning forward.
“Maybe two weeks?.”
“That’s when you’ll go into preheat?” Bato clarified.
“Well, no, I should start that next week, but it’s different. I’m miserable in the beginning. I’ll be hot and sweaty and bloated and emotional. I know I typically drive Mai insane, so you don’t need to be there for that.”
“Uh, no, we are going to be there.” Hakoda shook his head, brow furrowed.
“I don’t know. Sounds awful.” Bato said with a teasing grin. Hakoda growled softly and turned a glare on him only for his mate to snicker playfully. The Alpha rolled his eyes and turned back towards Zuko who laughed softly at them both.
“We will be there.” Hakoda said firmer.
“I just don’t--”
“Oh come off of it, baby, we are going to be there.” Bato grabbed a pillow and tossed it at the Omega who caught it and held it to his chest, heart fluttering.
Tingles ran over his skin. This was really going to happen. A shock of anxiety shot through his gut. He’d never spent his heat with anyone other than Mai who seemed to find it a miserable time. But Hakoda and Bato both seemed excited. Their Alpha pheromones grew tangy with interest, a thick, protective muskiness entering it as well. It made him wonder what it’d be like when he was actually in heat. Alphas usually had reactionary ruts when around an Omega in heat. He sucked in a breath at the idea and squirmed in his seat, his own aroused pheromones joining the mix.
Hakoda leaned his head back and sniffed at the floral scent before falling to his knees and crawling over to him. Zuko swallowed and spread his legs obediently to make way for the Alpha as he rose up between them, nose nuzzling at his inner thigh. The Omega’s hands went to his shoulders, fingers sinking appreciatively into the muscle.
“Should we take some time to practice?” He asked, voice low and husky.
“Yes,” Zuko breathed and then he shook his head to clear it, “but wait. That’s not all I have to say.” He brought a foot up and planted it on the Alpha’s chest, pushing him away so he could think straight. Hakoda grinned up at him and placed a hand on his ankle, thumb caressing the tendon in his heel. Even that was too distracting.
“Hakoda, let him speak.” Bato chuckled, and the Alpha groaned but moved away from Zuko to take a seat back on the couch.
“I was thinking it’d be a convenient time to officially announce you both as my consorts.” The Omega spoke slowly, hesitantly.
“Have you even asked Hakoda yet?” Bato asked and Zuko’s mouth formed a small o.
“I guess I just assumed you’d want to.” The Omega rubbed at the back of his neck as he tossed Hakoda a sheepish smile.
“Wow,” Bato’s face broke into a broad grin, “you had a second chance at this proposal thing and you still--”
“No, shut up!” Zuko laughed, covering his heated cheeks with one hand while the other held up in an attempt to silence the man.
“Leave him be.” Hakoda chuckled. “I really don’t mind.”
The Omega dropped his hand and studied the Alpha. He really didn’t look bothered, but Zuko pursed his lips. He didn’t like it. He stood and crossed the room to sit on his knees in front of the Alpha, grabbing both his hands in his own. He looked up into his eyes, and Hakoda grinned down at him.
“Forget all that.” Zuko started, nodding towards where he sat before. Both Alphas barked a laugh, and the Omega stifled his own before continuing. “Hakoda, I am in love with you. Will you do me the honor of becoming my consort?”
“Hm, I kind of liked the other one better.” Hakoda said with an impish grin.
“Try again. One more chance.” Bato chuckled. Zuko rolled his eyes at both of them and then pursed his lips in thought.
“Hakoda, if I could spend an eternity in your arms, I’d wish to spend an eternity more. I want to brand your essence on my very soul. I want the world to know you’re mine and I’m yours, and I don’t want anyone looking at you without thinking about how you’re mine. So Hakoda, will you be mine?”
“Well, what the hell? Now I like his better.” Bato said with a teasing grin.
“Oh shut the hell up.” Zuko grumbled, and they both broke into laughter.
“Yes, Zuko, I’d love to.” Hakoda said and leaned forward to plant a kiss on his forehead.
“We should probably start packing, so we can ride back with you to help plan the announcement before you’re made too miserable by your preheat.” Bato said with a soft smile as he watched them.
“Oh no, you don’t have--”
“Oh yes, we do.” Bato insisted. “You’ll learn someday, Omega, what it means to be loved and supported. Until then,” he rose to his feet and plopped down on the couch beside Zuko and nuzzled his nose into his ear, “we will love and support you until you can’t even remember who you are.” He whispered, breath hot on his ear, sending tingles across his skin. The Omega was about to lean back into his touch when Bato stood all at once. “But first we have stuff we have to start now if we are going to get to the Caldera before dark.” He said as he did so.
Zuko huffed a laugh at Bato’s antics, but he was grateful they’d be coming back to help him. It was still hard for him to accept that he didn’t have to do everything alone, but he was learning.
He became extremely grateful when his preheat hit within a couple days. Then, a few days into it, he became less grateful when his doctor told him that the early preheat was most likely due to the presence of the two Alphas. He kicked them both out of the room for that and stomped around angrily, eating an entire tray of pastries until his stomach hurt. Then he felt bad and went to go find them again, only for his heart to ache even more when he found them in the garden painting with Izumi. He thought about turning around and heading back to his room to wallow, but Bato spotted him and waved him over. He ambled towards the group, feeling much like a puppy with his tail tucked.
“You feel better, daddy?” Izumi asked, looking up at him with paint smeared across her forehead.
“Ugh, no.” Zuko answered with a chuckle as he sniffed back the tears that wanted to fall. “But yes, baby, I’m actually fine. I’m just emotional because I’m going into heat.”
“Messes with your motions?” She asked with a furrowed brow.
“Yes, a lot.” He said with a wry laugh.
“Hakoda, why don’t you stay here with Izumi, and Zuko and I will go grab some snacks.” Bato said as he stood and dusted the dirt off his pants. He reached out a hand and Zuko took it, following him down the garden pathway. “I can tell you’re worried about kicking me and Hakoda out of your bedroom.”
“I don’t want it to be my bedroom, I want it to be our bedroom.” Zuko muttered before he could catch himself and then sighed and put a hand to his forehead. “Sorry. That’s stupid.”
“No, it’s not.” Bato chuckled. “It is our bedroom, which means it’s yours too and you have every right to want some space.”
“Thank you.” Zuko sniffed. “But I feel so mean and crazy when I’m in preheat. It occurred to me while I was up there eating myself sick that you guys have never seen me this way. Maybe we should wait until after my heat to announce you as consorts that way you can decide--”
“Wait, wait, wait. I’m stopping you there. There is no way in five hells that Hakoda and I are going to fall out of love with you because you get emotional before your heat. I don’t care if you stomp around and get into a shouty mood. Do it all you like. Hell, I might even kind of like it.” He wagged his brows, and Zuko huffed a laugh. “I care about you, and that’s part of it.” He reached out a hand and tucked a strand of hair behind his ear with a soft smile. “Besides, after we spend some time with you being grouchy, we get to fuck you for a week straight, so there’s that.” He grinned wolfishly.
Zuko rolled his eyes with a snort of laughter, and Bato pulled him into a hug. The Omega squeezed the Alpha until he groaned in protest and then he breathed in heavily of his smokey scent.
“How am I supposed to make the announcement with me in preheat?” He sniffed.
“Just print it.”
“What?”
“Yeah, why does it have to be a whole event? Just print it. You should make all your announcements that way. Planning a whole thing like this is tiring and self important.”
Zuko let the idea sink in before he squeezed the Alpha again. “Ugh, I just love you so much.” He growled and Bato snickered as he buried his nose in his hair.
“I love you too.” Bato pulled away after a moment and looked down at him. “How about you let me and Hakoda write it this evening?”
“No, I don’t want you guys to have to do my work.”
“We came here because we wanted to help you. So far we haven’t done much except mess with your heat cycle.” Zuko huffed a watery laugh and Bato caressed his cheek. “Let us do this.”
“Okay,” Zuko said with a sniffle and then groaned at the tears stinging his eyes. Bato snickered and kissed his forehead.
“Don’t worry, my sweet Omega. We will take care of you, and I won’t tell anyone you’re actually a whiny little baby.”
“I’ll kill you if you do.” Zuko chuckled wetly, wiping away the tears that still insisted on falling. “I don’t need anymore snacks. I feel like I’m about to burst.” He added after a moment and Bato barked a laugh.
“Well, let’s go get some for Hakoda and Izumi.” Bato tugged him towards the kitchens again. “They’re both always ready for a snack.”
Zuko laid on his bed that evening, staring blankly at the ceiling with forgotten paints on the table beside him. His body felt sluggish and sore, his mind foggy and restless, his skin hot and itchy. Bato and Hakoda left to go write the announcement with Mai an hour ago and at the time he’d been thankful for a moment to himself but now he was antsy, a ball of nerves forming in his chest, telling him he needed to be with them. He should be the one writing the announcement. He should be doing something. He needed to be doing something. He glanced around the room and rolled to his feet, overcome with the urge to clean. The only issue was that he didn’t have anything to clean since the servants took care of it.
He paced the room with a grimace. He picked up a vase and moved it slightly more towards the center of the bed stand, he scooted a chair towards the table, he adjusted the way his dragon statue faced and then he growled and tore off his shirt. He mopped the sweat off his brow with it and tossed it aside. Then grimaced and picked it back up. He spotted Hakoda’s clothes from the day before draped over the back of his desk chair. He started for it with all the intensity of a wolf on the prowl. He jerked them off the chair and a waft of the Alpha’s scent came with it. He brought the shirt to his nose and inhaled deeply, eyelids fluttering closed as the familiar leathery pheromones caressed his senses. He groaned and rubbed his face against it before wrapping it around his neck like a scarf.
He opened his eyes and they locked on the dirty clothes basket across the room. He practically dashed towards it. He sighed in relief when he found it hadn’t been emptied yet. He tossed his own aside with a grimace until he found Bato’s shirt. He snatched it up to his nose and inhaled deeply. It was smokey from his pheromones and slightly sour with sweat. He moaned at the scent as images of Bato shining with sweat and panting from exertion danced in his mind. He dug frantically through the basket, grabbing every article of clothing he could find that wasn’t his own. He tossed them all on the bed and laid on them, rolling around until he was saturated in the two Alphas’ scents.
He spread the clothing out like they were blankets before dashing to his closet. He grabbed the stack of blankets and ran back out to his bed where he dumped them. He sniffed each piece, identifying his uncle’s scent, Izumi’s, Akito’s, Sokka, Katara, Aang, Toph. He laid them all out, weaving them in with the rest, running back for pillows and tossing them in. He acted on instinct, each move familiar, methodic. When he was done, the ball of anxiety in his chest slowly loosened and rolled out. He sighed heavily and threw himself down on his nest.
Nesting always creeped up on him. It was an unconscious thing every time, not a decision that he made but a sudden urge that he filled, not to be identified until it was done. He rolled and nuzzled his nose into Hakoda’s shirt again. His core clenched and his cock began to harden, slick gathering around his hole. He thrust his hips slowly into the bed, nursing himself into full hardness until he was rubbing his entire length down into the bedding, a wet spot forming in his pants. He groaned. His heat would come next. He always went into heat a day or two after nesting, but it was hard to tell now that he had two Alphas there. His preheat was early, the nesting was early. Nothing was predictable with them around anymore. He smiled to himself. He liked it better this way.
The door creaked open, and he sat up quickly, cheeks hot. Both Alphas walked in, but Hakoda stopped short, making Bato run into him with an oof. The door thunked closed and Hakoda tilted his head back to sniff the air with interest. Bato’s eyes lit on Zuko where he sat in the center of his nest, smelling of arousal. A broad grin split his face, but Hakoda was a step ahead of him, crossing the room with a wolfish smile.
“Well, well, you’ve been busy in here.” He said smoothly.
Zuko’s heart raced in his chest at the fast approaching Alpha. Hakoda stopped short of the bed, and looked around curiously at the nest. Nerves fizzled through Zuko’s body again and he found himself straightening a few pillows. His instincts kicked into overdrive as the need for his Alphas to like his nest ate at him. He looked nervously back up at them. Bato was beside Hakoda now and they both watched him, curiosity alight in their eyes.
“Are we allowed on it?” Bato asked softly.
“Yes.” Zuko said, voice stilted, and watched as they both crawled into his nest.
“Very nice.” Bato said as he stretched out beside him with a satisfied groan, muscles flexing and then loosening before he relaxed with a sigh. He looked comfortable, like he belonged there. The sight soothed his nerves, and he grinned at them.
“Can we add to it?” Hakoda asked, tugging off his shirt and exposing all that gorgeous skin.
With the shirt came a waft of the Alpha’s leathery scent, and the Omega nodded excitedly. He definitely wanted to add more of the Alphas pheromones to his nest. Hakoda grinned and laid it down alongside another one of his shirts. Zuko eyed the location, grimaced, and then picked it back up and moved it. He then turned towards Bato, grabbing and tugging at his shirt. The Alpha snorted with laughter, but acquiesced to being stripped, helping him get the garment over his head so he could add it to his nest.
“What were you doing in here, little Omega?” Hakoda asked, and Zuko turned to find he had pressed closer, a wicked grin on his face. He glanced down to where the Omega’s erection had flagged some, but the wet spot and the sweet scent of slick remained. The Alpha reached for the waistband of his pants and tugged it, pulling Zuko slightly closer. “Whatever it was,” he leaned forward and sniffed along his jawline over to his scent gland, “it smells amazing.” He breathed tantalizingly into his ear. Zuko’s eyes fluttered closed, a wave of arousal crashing through him, making a small mewl pull from his lips.
“Hakoda, ease off just for a moment.” Bato chuckled. “You’ll send him into a heat before we can even ask.” Hakoda pulled away with a snicker, and Zuko eyed him dazedly. “Are you already in heat?” Bato added, voice pitched with interest.
The Omega took a moment to close his eyes and breathe deeply. Was he in heat? No, not quite, but he could feel it creeping up on him, simmering under his skin. But as he considered he could feel himself cooling down.
“No,” he responded, “but I’m close. Maybe tomorrow.”
“Or maybe if I just play with you a little more.” Hakoda leaned in close again.
“Stop.” Bato chuckled and planted a hand on Hakoda’s chest, who grinned impishly.
“I’m just excited. I want him now.” Hakoda purred, and Zuko’s cock twitched in his pants, a soft puff of breath leaving his lips. He shook his head of the spreading fuzziness and tried to focus on what Bato was trying to say.
“You have a question?” Zuko asked, brow furrowed. “Is everything okay?”
“Yes,” Bato answered quickly. He opened his mouth, but snapped it back shut. He looked nervous suddenly. Zuko shifted anxiously in his seat.
“Go on.” Hakoda prompted, shoving Bato’s shoulder lightly.
“Shut up.” Bato grumbled and then focused on Zuko. He crawled forward and grabbed the Omega’s hands as Zuko watched with wide eyes. “Zuko, do you want to mate with us?”
The Omega’s stomach jumped into his throat, and he let out a choked sound as he blinked in surprise. “What? Like now? This time around? This heat?”
“Yes, baby, that’s exactly what I mean.” Bato snickered.
Yes, yes of course. The answer was on his tongue, but he looked between the two Alphas, assessing how they felt. “I-well, uh, I mean yeah, but d-do you? Do you both want to? I’ve never wanted to force you into anything. You don’t have t--”
“Ugh, Bato, that was a lame way to ask.” Hakoda complained loudly, interrupting Zuko’s nervous tirade. Hakoda smacked Bato’s arm playfully. “You’ve been giving him a hard time about his proposals and then look at you. Let me show you both how to do it.” He tackled Bato aside who fell with a snicker and then laid there, watching.
“My sweet little Omega,” Hakoda started. He crawled closer, moving like a predator, slow and languid, muscles sliding and flexing under his skin. Zuko bit his lip as he watched. They were both so beautiful. Hakoda pressed their foreheads together, icy blue gazing into fiery amber. “You’re so gorgeous.” The Alpha breathed, voice low and husky. He closed his eyes and rubbed their noses together before moving to nuzzle his way over his cheek. “And you smell divine.” He growled and he nosed into his scent gland. “I want you with a burning desire. I want to consume you, eat you alive. I want to coat myself in your pheromones and wear the smell of your slick like a badge of honor. I want to love you so thoroughly, you don’t know where I end and you begin. I want to share you with my mate, to have and hold you both. To see you both in our bed every single night until the end of time until you're both so molded to my knot, you’ll never be able to take another.
“Zuko, I want to make you ours. We want to mate with you, Omega.” Zuko sucked in a breath, arousal shooting through his veins and pooling in his groin. Hakoda opened his mouth and licked a messy stripe up his throat, making Zuko gasp and fall loose in the Alpha’s arms. His breath came in shallow spurts, heat rising in his veins. “Can we please mate with you?” Hakoda’s teeth scraped across Zuko’s scent gland, pressing tantalizingly into the tender flesh. “I want to be your Alpha.” He groaned into the flesh.
Zuko skin burst with heat, a wave of arousal coursing through him, his heart thundered in his chest, his body buzzed, and his mind grew foggy. “Uhn, yes.” He groaned and went limp in Hakoda’s arms. The Alpha caught Zuko, eyes wide. The sweet scent of heat oozed in the air, thick and intoxicating. Zuko shook his head weakly, stomach contracting as slick spilled from him, making his thighs slippery and wet.
“Oh fuck.” Hakoda grunted.
“I think you sent him into his heat.” Bato said in disbelief as he crawled closer.
“Yeah, I think so.” Hakoda breathed, leaning forward to inhale deeply of Zuko’s scent gland that he released with a drawn out groan that had the Omega’s toes curling. “He smells just as good as I imagined.”
Zuko laid there, chest heaving, sweat breaking out across his flesh. The Omega groaned as if he were in pain and rolled out of the Alpha’s arms and onto his stomach. He pressed his face down into the bedding and pushed his ass into the air, glancing over his shoulder to gaze pleadingly at the Alphas.
“Mate with me.” He moaned long and needy. “Please, I need it. I want it so bad.” He pleaded with a desperate whimper as his core contracted and slick spilled down his thighs, wetting the seat of his pants.
“Uhn, ugh, I--” Hakoda panted, the sound of it growing growly and desperate. His scent was thick in the air, spicy with arousal, musky and overbearing. It competed with Zuko’s own. “I think I’m--” He grunted.
“You’re going into rut?” Bato asked breathily, pupils wide, a broad grin on his face. His own smokey scent joined the mix.
Hakoda only growled in response. He shot out a hand to rub Zuko’s wet hole through his pants. The Omega mewled, eyes going out of focus as he wiggled his hips back against the Alpha’s fingers, wishing they could sink through the pants and thrust inside of him. His balls tightened, cock pressing hard against the fabric.
“Come here.” Hakoda snarled and grabbed the back of his pants.
Zuko jerked back against the Alpha’s body as the man tore the pants from his waist, the sound of shredding fabric ripping through the room. Hakoda pressed flush against his back, body quickly becoming just as fevered as his own. One hand slid over his sweat dappled skin, down to where Zuko hung hard between his legs. The Alpha rested his chin on the Omega’s shoulder and watched as he gripped Zuko’s cock and stroked it firmly from root to tip, pushing a clear bead of precum from the tip. The Omega whimpered, head lolling back onto Hakoda’s shoulder, and the Alpha growled low in his throat as he swiped a thumb through the bead and then circled it wetly around the tip.
Zuko’s hips stuttered, and the Alpha continued to stroke him up and down, his own cock thrusting between the Omega’s ass cheeks. He was so close to where Zuko wanted him most. He canted his hips, trying to get the Alpha to slip in, brain too foggy to even register that Hakoda’s pants were still on. All he could think about was Hakoda’s hand on his dick and how badly he wanted to be filled. He could already imagine how full he’d feel.
He peaked his eyes open to see Bato watching them, eyes half lidded, as his palm rubbed at his clothed cock. His elongated fangs poked between his parted lips as he panted, smoky scent curling around him, chest shining with sweat, a growl rumbling in his chest. The outline of his dick was clear in his thin trousers right down to the ridge of the head and the wet spot at the tip. A thrill shot through Zuko’s gut, balls tightening, cock twitching. He watched dazedly, breath picking up. Bato grinned wolfishly and tugged his trousers down his hips, so his cock slapped against his belly, hard and flushed. He leaned back and resumed stroking himself slowly, eyes glued on Zuko’s. The Omega released a strangled cry, hips stuttering, and Bato rolled to his hands and knees, crawling, sowly towards him, his ass swaying tantalizingly as he went.
He stopped in front of him, eyes half lidded, and tilted his head back, mouth opening, tongue poking out. “Yes.” Hakoda growled in encouragement. “Cum in his mouth, Omega.” The Omega shouted as his first orgasm jolted through him. His back arched away from Hakoda, and the Alpha slapped the head of his cock on Bato’s tongue, thick white ropes of cum spurting onto the pink surface.
Hakoda snarled and shoved Zuko down on the bed beside Bato. He gripped the back of Bato’s hair in a fist and tapped the head of his cock against his cum soaked tongue with a groan. Bato grunted, eyes fluttering to half mast as he shifted to take more of the Alpha’s cock into his mouth. Hakoda hummed in approval and fisted his other hand in Bato’s hair as he thrust himself fully down his mate’s throat. Bato choked but breathed a strangled moan, cock twitching between his thighs. He reached down and gripped it, stroking himself as Hakoda thrust down his throat, each movement punctuated with a deep grunt.
“You’re doing so well, my mate. You swallow it down like a greedy whore.” Hakoda panted. “I want to put my knot down your throat.” He added with a snarl, grip tightening as he tugged Bato forward. The Alpha gagged, tears springing to his eyes, but his hands flew up to grab Hakoda’s hips, pulling him closer with a hum of approval, movements harried and desperate, his smoky scent curling tantalizingly in the air.
The wet shine of Hakoda’s cock slid in and out of view as Bato swallowed him down, and the sight made a desperate need grow inside of Zuko. He pushed himself to his hands and knees and crawled beside Bato. He nuzzled at his cheek with a flirtatious trill and then down to his scent gland to lap at the sensitive spot, tasing the man’s rut thickened pheromones on his tongue, like a smokey mesquite. He moaned and licked up to the corner of his mouth where it wrapped around Hakoda’s cock. He poked his tongue out, letting Hakoda’s length slide against it.
“Good Omega.” Hakoda growled as he released one hand from Bato’s hair to fist in Zuko’s. He pulled out of Bato’s mouth, leaving the Alpha to pant for breath, lips swollen and shining with spit and precum. “Open up.” Hakoda purred as he used his grip to shove their cheeks together.
They did as told, tongues lolling out, and Hakoda grunted and turned their heads so their tongues pressed together, slick and wet. Zuko purred and turned to lick into Bato’s mouth, tasting Hakoda’s cock on his tongue. He grabbed Bato closer so their cocks pressed flush, making him groan and cant his hips, sliding their cocks together.
“Good boys. Sweet.” Hakoda hummed in approval. “Come here.” He forced them to face him again, pressing towards their waiting mouths. He ran the head over both their tongues as they eagerly licked and curled around it. “More.” Hakoda grunted and shoved down Zuko’s throat, who forced the muscles to relax, tilting his head back so the Alpha could shove deep into him.
Bato dove forward eagerly beside him, tongue licking at the base where Hakoda’s knot was quickly forming. Then he dipped lower, lathing over the tender skin of Hakoda’s balls. He sucked them into his mouth, one and then the other, tongue curling and then dipping even lower to lick over his taint. He glanced up impishly at his mate, but Hakoda was too far gone, panting raggedly, movements instinctual and wild, so he pushed on and swirled his tongue over the man’s tight entrance.
“Fuck.” Hakoda snarled and squeezed his knot before pulling out of Zuko’s throat. Hot ropes of cum landed on the Omega’s cheek and mouth, the taste bitter and salty. The Alpha gazed at him dazedly, reaching out a hand to rub his thumb through the mess, smearing it across Zuko’s cheek. Bato continued to lathe over Hakoda’s hole until the Alpha broke into ragged whimpers and pressed himself down onto his face. Finally Bato pulled away with a wolfish grin, and Zuko grinned at his mischievous behavior. He’d never known Hakoda to try anal play before, but it sure seemed like the Alpha liked it.
Hakoda panted and then looked down at Bato, face breaking into a playful glare at his mate’s impish look. “No.” He growled, but Bato only wiggled flirtatiously. Hakoda tackled him to the bed where he fell with an oof, hair splayed around him. “That was naughty.”
“More.” Bato protested, hand snaking around to grip Hakoda’s ass, fingers sinking into the soft flesh. “I want inside.” He growled, wrapping his legs around his mate’s waist and flipping them so he was on top.
He crawled down Hakoda’s body and pressed one of his thighs into his chest, probing gently against his mate’s entrance. Hakoda stiffened in shock but ultimately relaxed, a soft moan puffing from his nose. He spread his legs wider and Zuko trilled with interest rolling closer to the both of them. He peaked down to what Bato was doing, watching how the tip of Bato’s fingers pressed just passed the tight ring of muscle.
“More.” Zuko whispered. Bato turned a grin on him, fangs flashing.
“Yes, Omega.” He purred and brought a finger to his mouth, tongue circling the digit until it shined with spit before pressing it inside his mate.
Hakoda stiffened again, body jerking. He growled, sitting up partially like he was going to scold them, but the movement pressed Bato’s finger into his prostate. Hakoda’s eyes shifted out of focus and he groaned, grinding down on Bato’s finger.
“Good?” Bato asked, voice low, eyes scanning over Hakoda with an almost reverence.
“More.” Hakoda grunted, laying back and stroking his still hard cock. Bato and Zuko both looked at eachother with wide eyed grins.
Zuko scooted closer to reach a hand down and feel where Bato’s finger joined with Hakoda. He removed his hand only briefly to gather slick from between his thighs before returning it. He slipped in easily, feeling Bato’s finger slide against his as Hakoda contracted around them.
“Here,” Bato breathed, curling his finger so Hakoda’s body spasmed, cock beginning to ooze precum. Zuko nodded and curled his finger in the same place, rubbing with Bato so Hakoda received constant stimulation. The Alpha groaned, spreading his legs wide, mouth falling open as he panted.
Zuko’s core clenched as a wave of heat ran through him. He jerked his hand out of Hakoda, turning to push his ass in the air. He arched his back and wiggled his hips tantalizingly. “Me too, Alpha. Please.” He moaned, stomach contracting, slick dripping down his taint.
“On top.” Bato ordered, giving a slap to Zuko’s ass. The Omega moaned at the sting and shook his hips again. Bato rewarded him with another slap. “Now.” He grunted.
Zuko pushed himself up and tossed a leg over Hakoda, hissing when their cocks pressed flush. Hakoda gripped his hips, grinding them together in a slippery, wet dance. Bato pushed him forward, so they fell chest to chest, and Zuko yelped when two fingers slid easily inside of his slick hole. They curled, tapping against his prostate, and he mewled, pressing back into them. His eyes went out of focus, chest panting as he was stuck between thrusting down onto Bato’s hand and forward onto Hakoda’s cock. Hakoda seemed to be in the same predicament below him, breath growing increasingly ragged, hips thrusting messily with no real rhythm.
When Bato removed his fingers, the Omega huffed in protest, glaring over his shoulder, but Bato rolled his eyes with a broad grin, fangs bared. He leaned forward and licked hot along the shell of his ear. “Sweet, Omega,” he gripped his hair and forced him to look downwards. “What’s this?” He asked as he gripped Hakoda’s cock and stroked it, lingering at the Alpha’s quickly growing knot. The Omega groaned at the sight and nodded scooting forward.
“Come to me, Omega.” Hakoda purred as he grabbed his cock to help guide it in. Zuko sighed as he sank down, lids fluttering to half mast as his aching core was finally filled, his stomach muscles relaxing. He eased forward as Hakoda ground his hips upwards, knot massaging his rim, and brought their panting lips together. The Alpha groaned, sucking eagerly on the Omega’s tongue, hands roaming down his back to grip his ass. He spanked him once and broke the kiss with a growl.
“Get those damn fingers out and fuck me properly.” He grumbled. Zuko gasped and looked over his shoulder at Bato, a shock of arousal shooting through his gut.
Bato didn’t leave time to hesitate as he stroked himself with his slick covered hand and lined himself up. He teased the Alpha’s rim only momentarily before sliding slowly into his mate until he hilted himself, curling over Zuko’s back with a drawn out groan. The Omega watched as Hakoda’s face scrunched before relaxing and then his hips were wiggling again, urging Bato to move. Bato grunted in recognition, but stayed put, breath ragged. Zuko sat up, pressing himself against the man, and he rested his chin on the Omega’s shoulder with a groan.
“Does your mate feel good?” Zuko asked.
“Yes.” He breathed, baring his teeth as he ground into Hakoda. “So good.” He growled. Hakoda groaned, hips moving in slow circles as he thrust down against his Alpha’s cock and up into Zuko’s ass, lips parted, eyes dazed. The Omega sighed in pleasure and fell forward, closing his lips around Hakoda’s nipple before licking up his throat to his ear.
“It’s so good being filled up, right my Alpha?” He asked as he ground down onto the Alpha’s knot, hips gyrating. Hakoda released a shuddering sigh and closed his eyes as he nodded. “Do you want more?” He moaned.
“Spirits, yes.” Hakoda groaned as he wiggled his hips again, trying to get more from his mate. Zuko glanced over his shoulder at Bato.
“Faster.” He ordered. Bato grinned, smoky scent curling with interest. He slapped Zuko’s ass with a cheeky ‘yes, Omega,’ and let his hand linger there, thumb pressing into his soft entrance, feeling where Hakoda slid inside of him and stretching the Omega even further. Zuko moaned, unsure which felt better, the touch or this small moment of domination he felt over the Alphas.
When Bato obeyed him, and Hakoda arched off the bed with a cry of pleasure, he got his answer. “Harder.” He ordered again, louder this time, voice strained with arousal. When Bato answered with a breathy ‘ yes, Omega,’ Zuko moaned, a surge of arousal coursing through him.
Hakoda jerked on the bed as the slap of skin rang through the air. Zuko bit his lip and ground backwards onto Bato’s fingers until the Alpha sank another one in, and he sighed in pleasure, his ass clenching around the digits. “Slower.” He purred. Bato pulled out nearly all the way, and Hakoda released a pained sound, body tensing with the need for more. When the Alpha thrust back in, Hakoda’s eyes nearly rolled. Zuko leaned forward and captured Hakoda’s panting lips in a messy kiss, and the Alpha sank his fangs into his tongue, nearly breaking skin. It only sent a thrill through his gut, reminding him he was here in his heat with an Alpha. Not just one, but two. His core clenched, slick dripping down Hakoda’s knot, ready to take it.
He yelped when a hand fisted in his hair and jerked him upwards into Bato’s body. The Alpha's smoky scent was so overpowering, it made the Omega’s head spin, and he turned pliant in his hands. “Your ass is driving me crazy, Omega.” Bato growled and licked over Zuko’s scent gland. “I need inside of you.” Fangs scraped across his mating mark, and the Omega sucked a breath through his teeth. He wanted them both. If they were going to mate, he wanted to have them both inside of him. Bato added another finger and it slid in easily, Zuko clenching around it with a sigh of pleasure, the stretch filling him with relief. “You’re so wet, Omega. I think I can slide in and fill you so easily.”
“Do it.” Zuko urged, a shock of excitement coursing through him. “Fuck me.” He moaned, wiggling his hips enticingly so Hakoda groaned beneath him.
“Yes, Omega.” Bato whispered hot against his ear. Zuko’s heart leapt when he felt the head of Bato’s cock nudge against his entrance and then began to race as he slid past the tight ring. The Omega tensed in anticipation, and Hakoda sat up, pressing close, his leathery scent soft and comforting.
“Relax, sweet Omega.” He purred, thumbs massaging at the muscles in his lower back, fingers crawling down to feel where Bato slowly sank into him. The Omega mewled and threw his arms around Hakoda’s neck as a thrill of excitement and fear shot through him when the stretch intensified, the head of Bato’s cock pressing into spots that felt new and sensitive. Bato reached around to stroke Zuko’s still hard cock as he planted comforting kisses on his cheek while Hakoda did the same on the other side. The Omega sighed and leaned into their caresses, soaking in their murmurs of encouragement.
“Uhn, I’m all in.” Bato grunted. The Omega moaned at the very idea of having them both inside of him. He wiggled his hips experimentally and then tossed his head back onto Bato’s shoulder with a whimper while Bato groaned and leaned his forehead on Zuko’s shoulder.
“Yeah, do you like that Omega’s tight hole?” Hakoda growled as he nuzzled along his mate’s jawline. Bato nodded, mouth parted and tongue poking out as he panted. Hakoda shifted his hips, making his cock slide inside of Zuko, along Bato’s cock. All three of them moaned in reaction. “I can feel you in there. Do you like it, Omega?” He breathed and flexed his cock inside of Zuko who whined at even that small movement. It felt like so much. His whole body was alight with pleasure. “It seems like you do. Look how much you’re leaking.” Hakoda looked down where Bato still stroked his cock, cum oozing steadily from the tip and down the side of his hand. The Alpha reached down and slid his thumb across the head. “Filthy.” He groaned. “Are you ready for more?”
Zuko nodded dazedly, and the Alpha hooked his arms under the Omega’s knees and hauled him upwards before dropping him back down. Zuko choked on a moan, hands flying to grip in Bato’s hair and Hakoda’s shoulder. The Alpha raised him up and dropped him again, biceps flexing with the movement. Zuko watched dazedly but then squeezed his eyes shut and leaned back against Bato, dragging him down by his hair to seal their mouths together. Hakoda watched dazedly before leaning forward to lick into the kiss, tongues tangling together in a breathy, wet mess.
“I’m gonna fuckin cum.” Hakoda said, voice a ragged pant.
“Me too.” Bato grunted. A shock of arousal darted through the Omega at the idea, making his cock jump. He wiggled his hips, grinding down onto the Alphas. “Are you trying to milk it out of us, Omega?” He added with a grin.
“Do you want us to fill you up?” Hakoda growled, dropping Zuko harder and faster at the same time he pistoned upwards.
“Yes!” Zuko tossed his head and gyrated his hips. “Please, give it to me, shoot it deep inside of me.”
“We could fill you up until your sweet, Omega pussy is dripping with it.” Hakoda continued. Bato cursed, thrusts growing erratic as he nosed his way along Zuko’s scent gland, fangs scraping. Hakoda grinned and leaned forward to lick along the shell of his mate’s ear. “You like that, Alpha? Do you want to breed that Omega, shove your knot inside and pump him full of cum?”
“Gah, fuck yeah.” Bato growled.
“Me too.” Hakoda groaned and then nosed his way over to Zuko’s other scent gland, lips fluttering over it as he spoke. “I want to pump you full and then I want to trash that birthing tea you take and really fill you up. I want your stomach fat with my puppies.” Hakoda hips stuttered, and he released a drawn out groan, cock jumping as ropes of cum spurted inside the Omega.
“Bite me!” Zuko urged.
Bato snarled, fingers digging into the Omega’s hips as he gave a final, hard thrust, shoving his knot into the tight hole. Zuko cried out, eyes wide as his cock spasmed with his orgasm, core clenching around their twitching members, cum shooting in ropes across Hakoda’s chest. Then he yelped as twin sets of fangs sank into his flesh with a popping sound. Blood trickled sticky and hot down his chest, a deep scarlet against the creamy skin. Colors bloomed behind his eyes and instincts drove him forward. He buried his small, Omega fangs deep into Hakoda’s scent gland, over the mark that once belonged to Kya.
Hakoda’s hand fell on the back of his head, cradling Zuko to him as he sucked hungrily at the musky taste of Alpha. Zuko broke away with a gasp and turned with a harried energy, pulling Bato free from his shoulder. The Alpha looked at him with a dazed expression, canines and lips red, and the Omega latched their mouthed together, tasting his own blood and pheromones on his lips before licking messily down to Bato’s scent gland, leaving a trail of blood and spit. He bit hard into the sensitive flesh, and Bato’s cock jumped inside of him with a stuttering moan.
With their bonds sealed, Zuko could feel Bato and Hakoda’s pleasure mixing with his own. It tingled under his skin and curled deep in his gut. He arched his back with a shout as another orgasm tore through him, making his toes curl and his eyes roll. He could feel everything, and he grinned at the euphoria that coursed through him. He could feel the intensity of their ruts burning within them. He could feel how pleased they both were, satiated, content. He could feel how much they loved him. It was breathtaking. He felt like he’d dashed to the top of a mountain and leapt off. Like he’d dove into icy waters. Hakoda gripped the back of his hair and pulled him away from Bato’s fresh mating mark to kiss him. Zuko sighed contentedly into it, letting his body fall limp in their arms.
“You okay, my Omega?” Bato asked, voice soft and tired as he nuzzled along Zuko’s hairline.
His heart fluttered at the phrase my Omega uttered so many times before. Now it took on a whole new meaning. He was Bato’s Omega. He never thought he’d mate and here he was with two Alphas. “Amazing.” Zuko purred in response, wiggling into their arms.
“Let’s get you laid down here.” Hakoda chuckled.
He lifted Zuko, so both their cocks slid from his hole and then tossed him down onto the bed. Both Bato and Hakoda grabbed one of his thighs and shoved them apart, so they could watch as cum leaked from him. Bato cursed quietly as the Omega moaned at the sensation. He twitched with a yelp when a finger slipped inside of him and gently probed the tender flesh.
“No damage. He took it well.” Bato said distractedly.
“I told you he would.” Hakoda nudged him playfully.
“Yeah, well I was worried.” Bato said defensively and planted a kiss on Zuko’s inner thigh. “I love him.”
“I love him too!” Hakoda huffed.
“I love you.” Bato countered.
“I love you!” Hakoda scoffed as if it were an argument before they both broke into chuckles.
Zuko could feel it too. Warmth coursed through his chest, and tingled across his skin like a soft caress. He laughed and placed a hand over his heart, tears stinging his eyes. He’d never be able to doubt that they loved him now.
“I love you both.” He added with a sniffle.
“Oh no, are you hurt?” Bato’s head shot up to look him in the face.
“I’m just so happy.” The Omega sniffed and then huffed a laugh.
“Well, don’t cry about it.” Hakoda said, voice taking on a husky ombre. “It’ll make licking the cum out of you less enjoyable.” He finished with a ragged breath as he licked messily up his thigh towards his hole, the thick scent of rut curling in his scent again.
“Yes, my Alpha.” Zuko purred.
