Work Text:
The day had started out just like any other; Nicholas woke up, had a small breakfast, and drank a glass of milk before washing up and getting ready for work.
They had rehearsals all day starting at eight in the morning and likely going well into the night, so Nicholas made sure to prepare for everything he might need. He skipped a shower since he had slept in a little, opting to just wash his face and rinse down the important areas with a washcloth before spritzing himself with his scent blocker.
His scent was always strong in the morning - The sweet strawberry pheromones were potent and tended to make the others feel nauseous. Nicholas had learned to stop apologizing for it, but when Euijoo joined him in the bathroom while covering his nose, Nicholas couldn’t help but feel a little hurt.
His omega was a lot more sensitive than he let on, and he hated watching the alphas of the group get sick from his scent.
“You smell really sweet today,” Harua nuzzled into Nicholas’ side. They were cuddled up on the couch, waiting for everyone else to finish getting ready so they could leave.
“I sprayed myself with neutralizer earlier?” Nicholas frowned and scented the air, noticing that it did indeed smell like him.
“You’re gonna have to put some patches on, Nicho, you smell too yummy.” Harua yawned and nipped playfully at Nicholas’ throat. Harua was an omega too, scented like a creme puff, perfectly bite sized and delicious. “When’s your heat due?” Harua suddenly asked and Nicholas flushed.
“Not for another month, it’s only been two moons since my last heat.” Nicholas patted Harua gently on the hip, silently asking him to move so he could go find some patches. Sometimes his scent was impacted by things like his diet and his mood, so he didn’t think too much about it as he smoothed the blockers over his wrists and throat. He sprayed himself down with neutralizer again and added a light perfume to try to coat himself in something other than strawberries.
He inhaled the scent from the nozzle and a shiver ran down his spine - Sandalwood, god he loved sandalwood. It was so warm and woody, and it kind of smelled like Euijoo.
Nicholas capped the fragrance and shoved it in his bag along with the neutralizer and fresh patches just in case. He also made sure to pack a change of clothes for when he inevitably got too hot for the grey sweats and hoodie he was wearing.
He joined the rest of his bandmates in the living room, catching Euijoo’s inquisitive gaze as he walked by. The younger man cocked his head to the side a little and Nicholas watched his chest rise, clearly inhaling Nicholas’ scent. If he still smelled like strawberries, Euijoo didn’t mention it, but he did attach himself to Nicholas’ side like a lost puppy.
“Sorry if I hurt your feelings this morning,” Euijoo murmured into his ear once they piled into the car. “I would never purposefully do something to upset you, I hope you know that.”
Euijoo was a big dumb alpha, and Nicholas couldn’t blame him for being affected by his scent. He rolled his eyes and snuggled under Euijoo’s arm that had been tossed around his shoulders, inhaling the little cluster of scent glands in Euijoo’s armpit.
He pulled back and covered his nose like the younger man had done to him just that morning, a sly gleam in his eyes as he pretended to gag.
“Now you’re just being mean, Nicho.” Euijoo pouted. “Besides, don’t act like you don’t love my scent. You fucking doused yourself in it.”
His words were like a bucket of ice water and Nicholas snapped back into his seat normally, a little rigid as he toyed with the rings on his fingers and stared out the window awkwardly.
Euijoo just chuckled in response and straightened himself up too, but he didn’t move his arm from where it rested around Nicholas. They rode like that in relative silence until they got to the company and all nine of them piled into the building.
🍓✨
The day had been just as long as Nicholas anticipated - It was four o’clock and they were just now getting a lunch break. Nicholas had soaked through his sweats hours ago, so he took the opportunity to change and fix his scent blockers. He was sweating like crazy, and the material had been sticking heavily to his body. He was grateful that he brought a tank top and shorts to change into, and he sighed in relief once cool air began to finally run over his bare skin.
The heavy door to the bathroom creaked open and Nicholas’ nose twitched, easily recognizing Yudai and Euijoo’s scents.
“Nicho?” Yudai asked with a sniff. “You alright?”
“Hm? Yeah, just changing because I’m too hot in my heavy clothes.” He was stripped down to his briefs, so Nicholas was sure his scent was thick and potent in the bathroom thanks to how much he had been sweating. He pulled the tank top over his head and ruffled his hair before stepping into the cotton shorts and coming out of the stall. Except he nearly face planted into Euijoo’s chest the second he stepped out. “Oh—“
Euijoo’s eyes were wide, pupils eclipsed in a way that made Nicholas shiver - He brushed past the alpha with a small frown on his face.
“Are you wearing blockers, Nicho?” Yudai asked from the stall he had entered. He was the oldest alpha in the group, and his sense of smell was extremely heightened thanks to his pack alpha status.
Nicholas rolled his eyes, annoyed by all the attention to his scent. “I took them off to change them, I’m putting new ones on now.” Nicholas made eye contact with Euijoo in the mirror, noticing that he still hadn’t moved other than turning to stare at Nicholas who was in front of the sinks.
Yudai finished up in the bathroom and joined him, leaning in while washing his hands to sniff along Nicholas’ neck. “You’re sweeter than normal, have you taken your suppressants?” Yudai looked concerned, and Euijoo was still staring dumbly at him, making his wolf bristle.
“Oh my god, what is everyone’s deal today? I know you all hate my pheromones, but I can’t help it.” He huffed and sprayed the bathroom with neutralizer, then taped up his scent glands angrily.
Yudai frowned, reaching forward hesitantly. “Nicho, no one hates your scent. You just—“
“It’s cloying,” Euijoo finally rasped. “You smell heated.”
Nicholas rolled his eyes and crossed his arms over his chest. “Jesus christ, it’s only sweeter because we’ve been dancing for six hours straight—“
“No, Nicho, you smell like you’re in heat.” Euijoo repeated and shuffled from side to side, licking his lips and swallowing hard enough that the sound was audible. “It smells good, too good.” He emphasized his word with arched brows and didn’t hide the way his eyes trailed over the exposed skin of Nicholas’ body.
The omegas of the group always locked themselves away in a hotel from the predicted start date of their preheat until their heat was over, so none of the alphas had ever even smelled them while they were heated. It was the safest way to ensure the omegas didn’t have unwanted guests during their heats, and it kept the alphas from going into flash ruts in response.
“I’m not scheduled to go into heat for another month, Euijoo.” Nicholas clipped with perhaps a little too much bite, if the way Yudai stepping between them said anything.
“Hey, hey, don’t fight each other,” Yudai glared, using just enough of that alpha timbre to make them both want to submit. “Nicho, I’m sorry, but you need to go to the doctor and make sure you’re not going into an early heat. I’ve been able to smell you all day and you do not smell like you normally do.”
“What do you mean?” Nicholas asked, confusion playing on his face. “I’ve been wearing my blockers all day.”
“I know, but they aren’t working, and normally you smell like fresh berries from the market. Right now, your pheromones are even calling to me. Euijoo isn’t being mean, he’s being honest. Go get checked out and let me know what’s going on, okay?”
Euijoo growled a little next to them, and Nicholas snapped his eyes to the younger man, shivering when he saw the way Euijoo was glaring at their alpha.
“Oh, shove it, knothead.” Yudai pushed Euijoo towards the stalls and shooed Nicholas away.
He stepped out of the bathroom with a sigh, straining to hear the words that the two alphas were exchanging, but they were too muffled behind the metal door.
Nicholas was irritated, but he obeyed Yudai and had a company car take him to the doctor. He waited anxiously, fidgeting with the paper that sat under him uncomfortably. It took about thirty minutes, but the doctor finally came in with a bright smile.
He was handsome, a beta, Nicholas realized as he sat down in front of him.
“So, what brings you in today, Yixiang?”
“Oh, call me Nicholas!”
“Okay, Nicholas,” the doctor smiled. “Are you having issues with your heats?”
“No, I mean they’re intense, but regular. I’ve never strayed from my cycle since presenting, but my pack alpha made me come in today because he thinks I’m going into a flash heat.” Nicholas explained, flushing a little from the doctor’s intent gaze.
“And why does he think that? Have you been nesting or running any fevers?” He took notes as he spoke, looking up occasionally to encourage Nicholas to continue.
“No, I mean I got really hot today but we danced for like six hours straight with no breaks.”
The doctor flicked his eyes up at that and hummed. “What is your schedule normally like?”
“Um, usually we go from eight in the morning until eight in the evening. Sometimes longer depending on what we’re working on, but normally we have more breaks and we don’t typically dance all day.”
“A change in schedule could definitely trigger your heat, especially one so rigorous.” The doctor took Nicholas’ vitals, noting that everything was normal other than his temperature, which was only a little warmer than normal. “Do you have any other symptoms at all?”
“Well, my scent repressers aren’t working for some reason. Alpha said he could smell me all day even though I had neutralized and I’ve been wearing these.” Nicholas held up his wrists and tilted his head to the side, showing the bandages to the doctor.
“Well, I would say that’s a huge part of your problem.” The doctor sighed and sat back. “Have your glands been tender?”
Nicholas flushed and nodded a little, subconsciously running a thumb along one of his sensitive wrists. “Yeah, they ache like crazy, but I thought I was just sore from all the floor work.”
“Your scent isn’t meant to be contained like that, and when your body is trying to tell you, or others, something, it pumps out pheromones at a rapid pace. When you block those natural impulses, your glands produce and release pheromones at an even stronger rate.”
Nicholas nodded in understanding and let the doctor remove them, hissing a little as the beta rubbed the glands gently to expose Nicholas’ scent.
“I can see why they were concerned about a heat, you smell very strongly of it. That being said, I can’t rule the possibility out. You might be in preheat right now, but because of a lack of additional symptoms, I can’t tell you for certain that it is.”
Nicholas listened with rapt attention and suppressed a groan when the doctor moved to rub out the gland on his neck.
“No more patching these up, Nicholas. You’ll end up getting a blockage, and I can’t tell you in words how painful blocks scent glands are. Your members are going to have to deal with your full scent from now on. Besides, I don’t know why you would try to hide it so much, you smell absolutely lovely.” It was a nice compliment, and Nicholas smiled in response, allowing himself to purr happily as the doctor massaged his sore glands. “I’m going to send in a prescription for you to get stronger suppressants - That will help a little with your pheromone production, but keep in mind that you are a dominant omega, Nicholas. Your body is doing what it’s supposed to do.”
“Dominant omega?” Nicholas asked, confused. He had never been called that before.
“Ah, yeah… It’s all over your chart, did you not know?”
“I don’t even know what that means?” He blinked and stretched out his neck when the doctor went back to his seat in front of Nicholas.
“A dominant omega is essentially an ideal breeder - They are extremely fertile, and their pheromones are stronger than submissive omegas. Think of it as a queen bee, all the breeding males stay as close to her as they can.”
“I don’t know if I like being compared to a bee.” Nicholas said, humor dancing in his tone. “But I think I get what you’re trying to say.”
The doctor smiled wide and entered Nicholas’ new prescription. “Now, with you being unable to physically block your pheromone secretions, I would advise you to always be with someone else. Don’t go out alone, especially at night. And I’m sure you’ve already had conversations about safe sex, but do not skip any of your birth control doses if you don’t want to get pregnant, and it’s best that you use condoms if you have a heat partner.”
Nicholas’ flush only deepened and his face burned from embarrassment - No way was he getting the sex talk right now… “No worries, we aren’t allowed to have heat partners. We all just lock ourselves up and ride it out.”
His doctor growled a little under his breath, frustration immediately making his scent spike. The beta’s clean linen scent turned mildewed, and it was strong enough that Nicholas had the urge to sneeze. “Heat and rut partners are extremely helpful tools for pheromone release. If there’s any way you can have an alpha with you for your next heat, I strongly encourage it.”
Nicholas smiled and nodded, but he knew it wasn’t possible. The company wanted to reduce the risk of mating between the members as much as they could - The team was already so strongly bonded that they could barely stand to be away from each other. Even now, Nicholas’ instincts were calling for him to return to his pack.
“So,” Nicholas climbed down from the table and collected his packet of information from the doctor. “I’m not going into heat?”
“I can’t say definitively, Nicholas. You’ll need to take it easy and listen to your body. Take your new suppressant as soon as you get home and make sure you eat something with it, okay?”
Nicholas smiled tightly, realizing he had a work exemption for three days - Long enough to see if he was going into heat or not. He collected his belongings and left the building, immediately telling the driver that they needed to go to the pharmacy.
Once Nicholas was home and settled, he made himself some instant ramen and reheated some leftover steak they had in the refrigerator so he could take his medicine. He checked his phone too, reading through the notifications he had missed before sending an update to his band members.
Nicholas 5:30pm
back at the dorm, eating and gonna nap
Yudai 5:31pm
good news
everything’s okay then?
Nicholas 5:31pm
yep
just needed stronger suppressants
can’t wear the patches anymore
No one else responded quickly enough, so Nicholas set his phone on his side table before curling up under his sheets for a nap. The only thing that could possibly make Nicholas happier was if he had Harua or Euijoo to cuddle with.
🍓✨
Nicholas was groggy when he stirred awake, his mind swimming through exhaustion. His mouth was dry and sticky, making him groan as he tried to sit up and reach for his water. He quickly realized he couldn’t move thanks to a heavy arm that was wrapped around his waist.
“Let go, I’m thirsty.” Nicholas groaned, still blearily trying to wiggle free, but the low grumble from behind made him stop. Euijoo hadn’t snuck into Nicholas’ room to snuggle in a while, and Nicholas decided to let himself enjoy it. He rolled over in Euijoo’s arms, burying his face in the alpha’s neck and drinking in his calm sandalwood scent.
A tiny purr rumbled through Euijoo as he lazily ran one of his big hands over Nicholas’ side. It felt very domestic, and Nicholas nuzzled further into Euijoo’s neck, pulling him even closer so that every inch of their bodies were touching.
“Missed you,” Euijoo drawled. “Sorry for today, I don’t like fighting with you, baby.”
The pet name made Nicholas smile; This was the version of Euijoo he was used to, the one he had been harboring a massive crush on for years. “I missed you too, thank you for coming to cuddle with me.”
”Mm, are you feeling alright?” Euijoo continued rubbing Nicholas gently, rucking up his hoodie to draw small circles into Nicholas’ skin. The contact made sparks flicker up Nicholas’ spine and he hummed happily, the noise a little too close to a purr for comfort, but neither of them mentioned it.
“A little groggy from my new meds, honestly. Do I still stink?”
”You never smelled bad, Nicho. I’m sorry for making you feel like that, but you were so sickeningly sweet that I was…struggling to control my impulses.” Euijoo wiggled a little, like he was uncomfortable with the idea and Nicholas had to bite back his hurt reaction.
Did Euijoo really not know how Nicholas felt about him? Or did he not like Nicholas back? Or even worse, did he only like having Nicholas around like this because of his pheromones?
Nicholas’ heart thudded painfully in his chest, audible in the quiet room and hammering in his ears as his inner omega whimpered with rejection.
If Euijoo noticed, he didn’t say anything, so Nicholas swallowed down his pain, opting to shove his nose into Euijoo’s scent gland. He inhaled deeply, letting himself get lost in the alpha’s strong pheromones.
Nicholas drenched himself in it, letting the pheromones burn slow and deep as it filled his lungs with smoky-sweet warmth. He exhaled through parted lips, his mouth pressing against Euijoo’s neck as he dove back in for more. The scent was thickest at the base of the alpha’s throat, strong and concentrated, and Nicholas knew it would cling to his sheets for weeks.
A soft purr rumbled in his chest and his mind slowed, drool filling his mouth when Euijoo’s scent deepened. Maybe the alpha was doing it on purpose, allowing his scent to spill out just to get Nicholas intoxicated from it. Nicholas didn’t mind; He drank it down greedily, welcoming Euijoo’s musk and making room for it to settle deep in his body.
“Nicho,” Euijoo gasped, voice clipped like he was in pain. “What are you doing, baby?”
The hand that was previously rubbing Nicholas’ bare skin was now grabbing his shoulder, almost tight enough to bruise. Nicholas moaned a little and his eyes rolled back - He allowed his own pheromones to seep out, thick clouds of ripe strawberries flowing out of his pores.
Euijoo’s Adam’s apple bobbed in his throat and Nicholas caught the action, struggling to refrain from leaning up and lapping at the prominent bulge. Euijoo smelled so good, like home, and Nicholas inched closer, tossing a leg over Euijoo’s hips so he could keep him there. He reached for the alpha’s arms too, pressing their wrists together as he released more and more pheromones, instinctively attempting to claim Euijoo by dousing him in his strawberry scent.
“Nicho,” Euijoo’s voice had dropped several octaves, eliciting a moan from Nicholas. “Nicho, stop it. That’s enough, baby.”
His voice was laced with that rich alpha timbre that made Nicholas shudder, and it was at that moment that Nicholas realized he was pressing his hard length against Euijoo’s thigh. He hadn’t even realized his cock had filled out in his cotton shorts, but Nicholas was too dazed to do much about it.
He whimpered a little when Euijoo moved out from under him, forcing Nicholas to lay back in his own space with a little bit more force than necessary. Nicholas was stronger than Euijoo, but he wasn’t going to fight back if Euijoo was drawing boundaries between them.
But if Nicholas hadn’t been so scent drunk, maybe he would pay attention to that part of him that was feeling rejected by the alpha. He didn’t even have a chance to humor the intrusive thought, because as Euijoo was untangling their legs, Nicholas felt it.
Euijoo was hard too.
Nicholas didn’t need to see Euijoo’s cock to know it was big, he could feel it pressing against him, and fuck it was difficult to refrain from doing something about it.
Euijoo was flushed, pupils eclipsed, mouth slightly hanging open as he repositioned their bodies into more familiar territory. The fact that he wasn’t leaving soothed Nicholas’ inner omega, and he did his best to settle down and talk to his best friend normally.
“What did you mean earlier?” Nicholas asked once the haze in his mind thinned enough to think clearly. Shame licked at the edges of his senses, making him feel embarrassed about losing to his instincts, and allowing his omega to take over. His relationship with Euijoo wasn’t like that, as much as he wished it was.
“W- What? When?” Euijoo’s voice wavered, breath catching a little as he draped an arm clumsily around his waist to shield his arousal.
Nicholas chuckled, the sound somewhere between genuine and forced. “When you said my scent is sickening, but that I don’t stink.”
Euijoo rolled his eyes and the corner of his mouth lifted into a small, humorless smirk. “Nicholas. You’re an omega, you obviously smell good to me. You smell more than good, and sometimes it can be a little overwhelming.”
“Overwhelming how?” Nicholas frowned, turning his head to look at the alpha and recoiling a bit when he realized how close their faces were.
Euijoo’s arm tensed under Nicholas’ head and he sighed heavily. “My instincts… Fuck, my instincts push me to want things that I can’t have.”
“Like what?” Nicholas held his breath. He already knew what Euijoo was going to say, and he wanted to hear it. Nicholas needed to hear him say it.
Euijoo turned a little and cupped Nicholas’ face, tracing his thumb lightly over the swell of Nicholas’ cheek. “You.”
Nicholas sucked in a breath, inhaling the mix of their pheromones as they colored the air around them. “You can have me,” he whispered, almost quiet enough to miss.
But Euijoo never missed a thing.
It was one of the reasons Nicholas harbored so much affection for the alpha. Euijoo was always highly attuned to the pack’s needs— Nicholas’ needs, in particular.
His heart pounded in his chest as he waited for Euijoo’s response, and he stared at the alpha with baited breath. Euijoo’s expression was indecipherable, but Nicholas could tell he was thinking so he waited patiently.
But then Euijoo blinked once, a slow blink that took the soft, affectionate gaze with it when his eyes opened back up. “No,” he sighed, voice raw. “I can’t.” Euijoo sat up and rose to his feet so quickly that he startled Nicholas, his face twisting into something that looked like regret as he turned and left the room like it was on fire.
Nicholas laid in the sudden silence of his room, already mourning the loss of Euijoo’s warmth. His chest burned, rising and falling too quickly for him to get enough air. He curled up into a tight ball, wrapping his arms around his knees in an attempt to keep himself from falling apart.
Nicholas’ heart ached, racing and thudding loudly in his ears. He attempted to force the painful rejection down, but his mind was spinning. He felt like part of him had been ripped away, leaving him cold and distraught without his alpha— The alpha. Not his.
The thought made tears spring to Nicholas’ eyes, hot and silent as they seeped into the sheets that were still doused with Euijoo’s pheromones. Sobs wracked his chest as Nicholas thought about the closeness they had just shared, and the fact that he wouldn’t be able to have it ever again.
Nicholas wasn’t sure how long he laid there; It could have been hours. His concept of time slipped away from the moment Euijoo left him there alone, yet he couldn’t help but wonder where the alpha had gone off too, or what he might be thinking about.
Nicholas was confused, and he was hurt.
He should be elated to find out that Euijoo felt the same, but he wasn’t, because while Nicholas was in love with Euijoo, the alpha had all but admitted that he was motivated by instinct. Nicholas recalled what his doctor had said about him being like a queen bee - Euijoo was simply drawn to him because Nicholas was a dominant omega.
It was in their nature.
How cruel could biology be?
Nicholas’ eyes burned, and his head felt like it was stuffed with cotton, a side effect of crying. He still couldn’t stop, even though his pillow was soaked with tears and snot.
Nicholas couldn’t even move.
Not until he heard a familiar laugh approaching the door. Nicholas blinked, craning his head to look towards the entrance to his room just as Maki was entering.
Maki froze in place, his nose in the air as he inhaled the scent of Nicholas’ despair mixed with Euijoo’s conflicted emotions. “Nicho?” He asked carefully, quietly. Nicholas sniffled, his chest heaving as he fell apart all over again. “Oh,” Maki breathed.
The bed dipped a moment later, and a pair of strong arms wrapped around Nicholas, pulling him to lay on top as Maki smoothed a hand through Nicholas’ hair and down his back. Nicholas allowed himself to be soothed by the youngest alpha, even though his inner omega yearned for Euijoo; Maki was safe. He would take care of Nicholas.
“Do you want to talk about it?” Maki asked after Nicholas had calmed down a little bit.
“I just don’t understand,” Nicholas croaked, his throat scratchy from crying so much.
“You don’t understand what? Euijoo?”
Nicholas nodded against Maki’s chest, inhaling his calming herbal scent to help him settle. “He admitted that he wants me, but he pretty much said it’s because of his instincts. He can’t help it… So he doesn’t want me, his alpha wants my omega.” Fresh tears poured down Nicholas’ face and soaked Maki’s hoodie, but the younger man didn’t dare to move.
“That’s not true. Euijoo is infatuated with you, I know he is.” Maki’s voice was a gentle whisper, and he continued rubbing his hands over Nicholas’ back, clearly trying to cover Euijoo’s scent with his own so Nicholas wouldn’t be as distraught.
“As a friend. He doesn’t want me the way I want him, otherwise he wouldn’t have left me here like this.”
Maki paused for a few moments, allowing Nicholas’ words to sink in before speaking again. “Well, I’m an alpha so I understand where he’s coming from, Nicho. He’s probably scared that it is as shallow as only wanting you for physical reasons, but he’ll come around. Trust me.”
Nicholas didn’t respond; Instead, he let Maki soothe him to sleep, falling into a dreamless slumber, safe in his friend’s arms.
🍓✨
“Nicholas,” a gentle whisper tugged at the edge of Nicholas’ consciousness, not fully rousing him from sleep. “I have to get up for work, okay?”
Nicholas whined a little when his body was jostled, suddenly laying face down on the soft mattress instead of the solid, comforting body of his roommate.
“I’m gonna leave you my hoodie. Snuggle with that, ya big baby.” Maki teased and slid the soft material under Nicholas’ chin, moving one of the arms so it would rest right under the omega’s nose.
Nicholas would thank him if he could, but dreamland still kept him pulled under, only allowing him enough awareness to hear when Maki was talking to him.
Soon the dorm fell silent, and Nicholas fell into a deep, blissful sleep full of vivid dreams of things he yearned for, but might never get to have.
He dreamt about what would’ve happened the night before if Euijoo hadn’t rejected him. In Nicholas’ dreams, Euijoo pressed his mouth against Nicholas’, and his tongue lapped at the seam, begging for entrance. Nicholas gave it to him, of course he did; Hw could never deny the alpha after all. They moaned in unison when their pheromone coated saliva mixed, and swallowed it down as their hips rocked gently against each other.
Euijoo would have taken such good care of Nicholas, taking his time to open him up before fucking him full.
Until they were both satisfied and panting into each other's mouths. Maybe they would’ve shared hushed confessions, giggling to themselves as their lips connected perfectly.
“Pretty thing,” Euijoo’s voice was intoxicatingly low and raspy, hands cruel as they skimmed down Nicholas’ sides and gripped his hips to still the omega. Nicholas whimpered, squirming under the praise and chasing Euijoo’s lips. “You want it so bad, don’t you?”
Nicholas nodded, fervently and his back arched off the bed, chasing the phantom pressure between his legs. “Fuck, please. Need you, Euijoo,” he gasped as carnal need pooled in his core.
Their clothes were shed from their bodies at lightning speed, hands roaming and skin finally touching skin when Euijoo settled between Nicholas’ legs. Deft fingers opened him up, stretching and fucking into Nicholas with practiced care as the omega fell apart.
“Gonna take me so well, baby.” Euijoo placed a kiss to Nicholas’ sweat-slick neck, nipping teasingly at the aching scent gland.
And when Euijoo finally pressed inside, everything fell into place. Sparks erupted behind Nicholas’ eyelids as Euijoo’s cock stretched him wide. They fell into a toe-curling rhythm, their bodies moving in tandem as Euijoo fucked Nicholas. Each thrust only stroked the flames building in Nicholas’ gut, and he clung to the alpha, mewling against his neck. He begged him to never stop, to never pull out, stay where he belonged. Inside Nicholas forever, hitting spots he didn’t know existed until their souls merged into one, and neither of them would be able to tell where one ended and the other began.
Tears spring to Nicholas’ eyes and he cried out as he came, his hole spasming around Euijoo’s knot as they were locked together.
“That’s it, baby.” Euijoo cooed, trailing soft kisses up the column of Nicholas’ neck. “Alpha’s got you.”
Nicholas woke up suddenly, drenched in sweat and groaning drowsily. He tossed his blankets off and sat up, immediately noticing the coil of pleasure in his gut paired with the hardness of his cock.
Fuck.
His cotton shorts were tinted a dark grey color, stained with sweat, slick, and cum. Nicholas groaned in annoyance, but he had been pent up, plus the way he slipped into his omega the night before had surely influenced the sudden onslaught of heightened sexual frustration.
His senses buzzed, snapping like a live wire from oversensitivity. The memory of his dream lingered, and every nerve in Nicholas’ body hummed, remembering the warmth of Euijoo’s body.
Nicholas shrugged it off and ignored his aching boner as he trudged to the bathroom. He washed up lazily and brushed his teeth before working his way through the dorm. The clock above the microwave told Nicholas that it was after two in the afternoon, and he winced, realizing just how long he had been in bed. But he supposed he really did need the rest.
Nicholas made a small lunch, taking his birth control and new suppressants when he finished eating. The dorm was eerily silent, and Nicholas didn’t like it. He loved how full of life and chaos the dorm normally was, with dozens of shoes tossed around the entry, food all over the kitchen, and a pair of members arguing in the living room while the others laughed and cuddled up together. Nicholas missed them; Their yummy scents and cuddles and the way they would all seamlessly take care of each other.
His stomach dropped a little at the thought, remembering how Euijoo normally cared for him, and the way he looked when he left Nicholas’ room the night before.
Fuck, Nicholas wished he could just talk to him.
He didn’t like being on a different page than Euijoo, and he really didn’t like the lack of communication that was happening between them. If Euijoo didn’t want Nicholas the way he wanted him, Nicholas needed to know so he could try to move on.
The thought made Nicholas’ stomach clench in discomfort, a twisting so deep in his guts that it knocked the breath from his lungs. He held his lower stomach and gasped, grabbing onto the kitchen counter for support as he tried to level out his breathing.
That was it, he decided. He was going to talk to Euijoo tonight whether the alpha was happy about it or not.
Nicholas yawned and stretched a little before moving back through the dorm. He stopped by Euijoo’s room before heading to his and he grabbed the zip up jacket the alpha had left behind along with one of the plushies that lay on his bed. Nicholas was craving comfort, and cuddling up with Euijoo’s scent was something that would surely wrap him in a warm hug and keep him safe.
He trudged to his room, rubbing his eyes sleepily and yawning as he fell back into bed. Nicholas curled up in a tight ball, holding Euijoo’s jacket and plushie to his chest and inhaling the sandalwood that had stitched itself into their fibers. Slowly, Nicholas relaxed and fell back to sleep, peaceful and dreamless for once.
The next time Nicholas woke up, it was from discomfort coursing through his veins. He thrashed uncomfortably, kicking the blankets off of his sweaty, sensitive body with a groan. It felt like his head was stuffed with cotton, and Nicholas was unable to even open his eyes without wincing from the pain exploding behind them. He whimpered, curling up tighter and shoving his head between his knees. He shoved his face into Euijoo’s jacket and inhaled deeply, shuddering when the pain radiated to his back and spread down to his hips.
Fuck, it must have been a side effect of his new suppressants…
Nicholas was a dominant omega, and his inner wolf must have been struggling to adjust to the changes. Nicholas squeezed his eyes shut, one solitary tear slowly falling down his face. God, the things he would do to have Euijoo’s hands massaging him right now.
Slowly, the pain melted away, and Nicholas sighed with relief. He passed out, exhausted from fighting the agonizing cramps, but he was awoken once again less than ten minutes later. The same strange cramping twisting his organs as Nicholas sobbed into Euijoo’s jacket. He bit down on it, muffling his whimpers and trying to expel the sensation.
Nicholas could barely think as he writhed uncomfortably - He fell off the bed and crawled through the dorm, following his instincts until he heaved himself up onto Euijoo’s bed. He didn’t have time to think about it before sleep pulled him back under, sandalwood finally easing his pain and cradling him gently.

His body was heavy and his thoughts came slow, like he was swimming through a vat of honey. Nicholas attempted to blink his eyes open, but his lashes were weighed down. Every sound was muffled, warped as his consciousness tried to move to the surface
“Nicho?” The voice was warped, muffled as it attempted to rouse Nicholas from sleep. “Nicholas!”
The voice was so distant, but Nicholas still attempted to acknowledge it. His mouth opened, but words escaped him as his head pounded, only the thundering of his heartbeat audible as it echoed against his skull.
“Hey! Hey— Nicho, look at me.” Yudai’s sharp voice finally broke through the fog, and Nicholas gasped, stuttered and weak. “You’re burning up, are you okay?”
Just then, the pain was back - It coiled harder, sharper as it rolled through him, bringing a wave of nausea in its wake and making Nicholas groan dizzily.
“My new meds…” Nicholas tried to explain weakly. “I don’t think they’re working—“
”Shit. We need to get him to a nesting room, now!” Yudai panicked, and Nicholas could hear more voices chiming in, but he couldn’t hear what they were saying. ”Keep Euijoo out of here, Nicholas is in heat!”
“What? No, I’m not in heat. I want to talk to Euijoo— Please.” Nicholas couldn’t form the words, but he felt his pack alpha rubbing his back soothingly as he threw up his lunch into Euijoo’s wastebasket. “Please.” His voice was soft and he sobbed around the words as he clutched onto Yudai. “Please, Euijoo…”
“Everyone out.” The velvety alpha timbre made Nicholas snap his head towards the door, suddenly fully aware. He sighed in relief, a small smile spreading across his face, but it dropped just as quickly when Yudai rose to his feet.
“Surely you know I’m not leaving the two of you here alone when Nicholas is in heat?” Yudai scoffed and glared at Euijoo.
“Funny, because he’s asking for me, and I’m telling you to get. the. fuck. out.” Euijoo growled and Nicholas whimpered as slick rushed to his entrance and heat replaced all the pain he had been in before. Nicholas gasped, watching Euijoo’s nostrils flare as he scented the air. “Yudai,” he growled again in warning. “I won’t say it again.”
Nicholas watched, feeling panic bubble up as the two alphas argued in the entrance to Euijoo’s room. More of the pack members flooded the small area and Nicholas whined, feeling uncomfortable as they all stared at him. Harua rushed to his side, pushing through the wall of alphas to clamber onto the bed with him.
Two small hands grabbed Nicholas by the face and he stared the bunny-like omega in the eyes, his head tilting a little in question as Harua gazed at him. “Shit, you are in heat.”
“No,” Nicholas shook his head. “It’s just the suppressants, they’re making me sick or something—“
”Nicholas. You are in heat. I can smell your slick, and the alphas are about to rip each other’s throats out.” Harua said it seriously, slowly so Nicholas would absorb the words. “I need to get you out of here, baby, please let me help you.”
“No! I’m not going anywhere,” Nicholas snarled, his inner omega bristling from being told what to do. Something inside him snapped; His cramps were brutally squeezing his insides but it wasn’t sickness anymore. It was pure need, and his hole was flared, horrifically empty and craving the alpha he loved so much. “You guys leave. Everyone but Euijoo.”
Yudai whipped around at his words. “Nicho,” his voice was so soft, but the pack alpha’s eyes were completely black, pupils eclipsed as he struggled to control himself. “We signed a contract. And not only that, but you’re not in your right mind.”
“The fuck I’m not! I’m perfectly sane, and I know what I want. Fuck the contract, I want Euijoo to be here with me.” Nicholas was close to crying, his emotions heightened due to his heat brain trying to take over.
“I’ll make sure he stays fed and hydrated, but I’ll lock myself in the bathroom during waves, okay?” Euijoo leveled with Yudai, not gracing Nicholas with eye contact while the two alpha’s discussed the situation at hand.
Yudai scoffed, “You expect me to believe that the two of you aren’t going to end up spending his heat together?”
”I promise I’m going to do my absolute best not to. Please, Alpha? Let me be here for him. This is probably my fault in the first place.” Euijoo winced and Nicholas whined, frustrated that Euijoo wasn’t planning on giving him his knot.
Yudai thought about it, but Nicholas could tell that the alpha was beginning to struggle too much with being in the same room as a heated omega. He was panting heavily and blinking excessively, clearly trying to keep himself grounded. “Call me…Or Harua if you guys need anything. I have to get out of here,” he swallowed audibly. “Please be safe, okay?”
Nicholas could have fucking cried with joy.
He fell back into Euijoo’s sheets and nuzzled into the alpha’s pillow, inhaling deeply as Harua began fussing over him.
“I’m going to go get your heat stuff, okay Nicho?” The younger omega announced and took off in a flash.
Euijoo still wasn’t looking at him, but Nicholas didn’t care right now. His cramps had finally eased enough for him to get comfortable, and he was settled by the thought of having his alpha close during his heat.
When he woke up, Nicholas was surprised to find that he wasn’t in pain, nor was he horrifically horny. He chuckled a little to himself, realizing that he and his pack were just being dramatic - He said he wasn’t in heat, and he was right. Except his eyes caught Euijoo’s, and he immediately began to drool as sandalwood filled his senses.
“Euijoo,” he whispered, voice soft around the name like a prayer.
“Are you okay?” Euijoo asked, swallowing hard. He was sitting on the floor across from his bed, and his knuckles were white from how hard he was gripping his knees.
Nicholas nodded a little, but he quickly began to cry, fat and salty tears falling as he shuddered. Fuck, his omega was so sensitive. It was infuriating, but Nicholas had to accept what his omega was feeling.
“You left me.” Nicholas sobbed harder and clutched the sweater he had been cuddling tighter in his arms. Vanilla and pastry dough filled his nose and he felt himself soothe just a little bit from the scent of Harua’s clothing.
Euijoo looked at him sadly, a tight smile playing on his pretty face. It didn’t suit him, Nicholas decided. He much preferred Euijoo’s sweet and loving grin, and he missed it desperately.
“I’m sorry,” the alpha whispered so quietly that Nicholas almost missed it. “I just didn’t know what to do, Nicho, fuck.”
“D- Do you not want me?”
“No! God, Nicho, no of course I want you.” Euijoo’s eyes widened with genuinity.
“But not the way I want you.” Nicholas stated, carefully watching Euijoo’s body language.
The alpha deflated a little and sighed. “We can’t talk about this right now, Nicho. We need to save this conversation for after your heat.”
Pain ignited through Nicholas’ body and he cried out, holding his stomach as the cramps started back up.
“You need to get your first wave over with, Nicholas, that’s why you’re in so much pain.” Euijoo stood and turned away. “Harua brought your toys and left them on my nightstand. I’m going to lock myself in the bathroom, but I’m not leaving you, okay?”
“No!” Nicholas sobbed, launching himself out of bed and in front of Euijoo as he tried to escape. “Juju please? Please help me, it hurts so bad, I need you, Juju please, I can’t do this without you!” He howled, probably looking desperate and disgusting, but Euijoo still stared at him with soft eyes.
“I can’t, Nicho.” Euijoo pushed Nicholas off of him, ignoring his cries as he nearly sprinted to the bathroom and locked himself in.
Nicholas saw how Euijoo’s hands shook, hovering over the doorknob for just a second too long. He scented the air, picking apart Euijoo’s pheromones, which were now sweet and sharp. He smelled like longing, and Nicholas understood - Euijoo wasn’t leaving him because he wanted to, he was doing it because he felt like he had to.
Nicholas followed him in a daze, face planting into the heavy oak door as it shut in his face. He whimpered and fell to his knees, gasping for air as he begged for Euijoo to help him.
“Euijoo,” he cried. “C- Can we at least talk?”
“We will talk as soon as your heat is over, okay? Right now Alpha needs you to sink into your heat and ride out the first wave. Can you do that for me?” Euijoo’s voice was soft and sweet, ringing beautifully in Nicholas’ ears, soothing him. “You’re going to distress your omega if you don’t. Do it for me, baby.”
Nicholas purred and his eyes fluttered, the tears finally dissipating as Euijoo’s alpha timbre lolled him into a relaxed state. He sighed and crawled back to Euijoo’s bed, quickly finding his favorite dildo. Nicholas took a grounding breath and allowed the heat to pull him under.
Soon, the intense feelings of rejection morphed into a sense of purpose. His alpha wanted him to do this, and he was going to obey.
The fever rolled through Nicholas from head to toe, and he shivered in its wake, goosebumps rising to the surface of his skin despite the sheen of sweat that coated his skin. He could smell his pack and he buried his face into the nest that Harua made for him, inhaling their scents and letting them coax him into his omega. Nicholas whined, drool pooling behind his teeth when the sweet, milky scent of sandalwood wafted under the bathroom door and into his nose.
“Euijoo,” he whined. Nicholas had made up his mind, and so had his omega - Euijoo belonged to him. They were meant to be together, and he was going to find a way to get the alpha to talk to him before his heat ended.
But for now, all Nicholas could focus on was the tight band of arousal that wrapped around his lower body. He nearly shredded his t-shirt as he ripped it from his overstimulated chest, and his boxers didn’t fare much better, but once Nicholas was naked he sighed in relief. His cock was hard and aching, twitching uselessly against his lower stomach. His thighs were soaked with slick, and Nicholas’ hole clenched with every dull cramp that wracked through him.
“Euijoo!” Nicholas repeated like a prayer, slipping two fingers into himself just in case. He didn’t need to be stretched, not with an alpha less than ten feet away - Nicholas’ body was ready, and his slick squelched loudly enough for Euijoo to hear, the sound echoing off the walls and making Nicholas flush.
Nicholas’ headspace went hazy as instinct took over, and before he knew it, Nicholas was shaking with the force of his first orgasm. He didn’t even remember shoving the dildo into his hole, but his heats were always like this— Intense and blinding with pleasure. He groaned and fucked himself through the orgasm, inhaling the ripe, juicy scent of strawberries that drenched the room.
Euijoo’s scent was as deep as ever, and if Nicholas focused hard enough, he could hear the alpha panting in the bathroom, holding himself back from fucking Nicholas on his knot. The thought alone made another orgasm rip through Nicholas and he cried out, shoving the toy as deep into him as he could so that his hole could lock around it.
“Alpha, fuck!” He yelped when the large swell bullied past his rim, and his hole instinctively clamped down around it, pulsing and not letting it go. He painted his chest with cum, heaving and shuddering as he felt the first wave pass, leaving him exhausted. “Euijoo,” he called, whining from overstimulation.
”Can you cover yourself up before I come out, Nicho?” The alpha’s soft voice was strained, and Nicholas hummed, happy to hear his name roll off Euijoo’s lips.
“It’s fine, Juju. You’ll see it eventually.” Nicholas yawned and stretched a little, wincing when the dildo shifted inside him.
Euijoo must have agreed, because Nicholas’ ears twitched a little as the bathroom door unlocked and the pretty alpha stepped out. He looked fucking feral - Eyes wide, nostrils flared, mouth parted. Nicholas trailed his gaze down Euijoo’s body, feeling unsatisfied that his alpha was still dressed. The light grey sweats did absolutely nothing to hide Euijoo’s erection, and Nicholas preened, his mouth filling with slobber as he stared unabashedly.
“Fuck,” Euijoo murmured, eyes widening impossibly further as he took in Nicholas’ appearance.
Nicholas glanced down at himself, but he couldn’t find it in himself to feel embarrassed that Euijoo was seeing him like this.
Euijoo approached slowly, breathing even slower as he reached the side of the bed. “I’m gonna clean you up, okay?” Nicholas nodded, watching as Euijoo rubbed a towel over his stomach to clean up the release. He moved hesitantly to Nicholas’ thighs, keeping his eyes locked on the omega’s while he dried up the slick. “Do you want to take the toy out?”
Nicholas tightened around it and his hips bucked, sucking it in deeper at the thought. “I think I’m still…locked around it.” He blushed, finally feeling the weight of what was happening.
Nicholas was in heat.
Nicholas was in love with Euijoo.
Euijoo was an alpha, and he was right there, staring at him.
“Juju,” he whined. “Can you stay with me for the next wave? My heat won’t break for days if I don’t get a real knot.”
Euijoo growled under his breath, the sound going directly to Nicholas’ dick. “How would you know that, hm?” Something akin to jealously flashed in Euijoo’s eyes and Nicholas fought the grin that threatened to spread across his face.
“My doctor recommended that I get knotted during my next heat. He said it’s vital for pheromone production and overall satisfaction.” Nicholas giggled but the sound quickly turned into a whine when the force of it made his dildo jolt. “Please, Euijoo? You know how badly I want you.” Nicholas pleaded, staring up at the pretty alpha who was now indulging himself in all of Nicholas’ bare skin.
“We have other things we need to talk about before we even think about…that.” Euijoo sighed and rubbed a hand through his hair like he was frustrated.
“Let’s talk then, I’m good until the next wave hits. My heat hasn’t even started building for real yet.” Nicholas moved to the side a little, patting Euijoo’s mattress and gesturing for him to lay down. “Cuddle with me while we talk.”
Euijoo hesitated but in the end, he accepted Nicholas’ offer and laid down in his nest, arranging them a little bit so it would be a little less awkward. Nicholas snuggled into Euijoo’s side, shoving his face into the alpha’s armpit so he could inhale Euijoo’s scent from the cluster of glands there.
“You really like my armpits,” Euijoo chuckled, teasing Nicholas gently as they got comfortable.
“Mhm, smells the most like you.” It was true - The glands there smelled musky and deep, but also like their laundry detergent and Euijoo’s cologne. Nicholas felt the most comforted when Euijoo had an arm tossed around his shoulder for a reason.
“You haven’t scented the others yet,” Euijoo snorted and Nicholas flushed a little in response. That was also true…The glands located around Euijoo’s groin were probably even richer and thicker than his wrists or armpits. But Nicholas did have experience with the one at the base of Euijoo’s throat, and the memory of that night made him whimper.
“Juju… Why did you leave me like that last night?” Nicholas’ eyes welled with tears, but he shoved his face into Euijoo’s side, not wanting the alpha to see him cry about it.
“I— Nicho, I want to apologize first. I am so so fucking sorry. I didn’t know you would go into heat because of it, and I didn’t know you would be so devastated.” Euijoo’s tone was sad, but honest, and Nicholas listened as he spoke. “I didn’t want to act on instinct. And I didn’t want you acting on instinct either.”
“Instinct is one of the most honest things you can rely on, Euijoo…”
“No, because today, Yudai had the instinct to fuck you through your heat and knot you. But imagine what would’ve happened if he had relied on that instinct.” Euijoo snarled around the words, but Nicholas understood now.
“Euijoo… Our instincts can’t force us to do or feel things that we don’t already. If Yudai and I both wanted to act on our biology, it would have been a lot harder for him to walk away. But with you, you walked away and it felt like a part of me had died. My instincts call for you, yes, but so do I.”
Euijoo looked down at Nicholas with a shocked expression, and at that moment, Nicholas’ cramps made their presence known once more. He knew what he wanted.
Nicholas flicked his gaze to Euijoo’s mouth and back up before he leaned in. Their lips touched just briefly, just enough for them to gasp as electricity snapped between them.
Euijoo pulled back, squeezing his eyes shut. “We can’t.”
“We can.” Nicholas breathed and moved back in, capturing Euijoo’s lips a little more boldly this time. They slotted together perfectly and Nicholas whined when Euijoo reciprocated, even if it was hesitant and timid. Nicholas led the kiss, directing the angles of their heads and moaning with each smack of their plump mouths connecting. He lapped at the seam of Euijoo’s lips, begging for entrance which Euijoo nervously granted.
Nicholas dipped the tip of his tongue inside Euijoo’s mouth and swallowed down the alpha’s groan, licking more confidently and exploring freely. Euijoo’s saliva tasted exactly how Nicholas thought it would, sweet, musky sandalwood making him drool. They kissed with fervor, pulling back every once in a while to catch their breaths before diving back in.
When Nicholas pushed up on his elbows and pinned Euijoo to the bed, the alpha snarled. Euijoo flipped them easily, and heat rolled through Nicholas once more as he wrapped his legs tightly around Euijoo’s nonexistent waist.
Nicholas held both sides of Euijoo’s jaw, keeping him close as they continued their heavy make out session. His hips bucked off the mattress and he hissed when his bare cock dragged over the material of Euijoo’s sweats. “Euijoo,” he moaned. He could feel it now; Euijoo hadn’t been holding back because he didn’t want Nicholas. He was doing it because if he let go for just a second, they would never stop.
Euijoo pulled back for a second, panting heavily. “We can’t,” he repeated, voice husky and full of need.
“We can.” Nicholas said again, diving back in and claiming Euijoo’s mouth as his.
Euijoo moaned in response and lowered his weight on top of Nicholas, moving one hand to cup Nicholas’ face as he began to return the kiss full force. They licked and sucked and nipped at each other’s lips, moaning each time their lower bodies made contact.
“Please,” Nicholas begged, succumbing to the fever that washed over him. “Euijoo— Alpha, I need you. I love you, please.”
Euijoo groaned at his words and his hips rocked against the omega’s, grinding into him despite the slick that was gushing past the dildo that was still snuggly inside Nicholas. “We can’t.”
”But we’re going to.” Nicholas whispered against Euijoo’s mouth and his hips bucked again, desperate for attention.
“Yeah,” Euijoo sighed. He trailed a big hand down the expanse of Nicholas’ naked body, stopping at his leg and hiking it up so he could rub the underside of it. Nicholas didn't miss the way his fingers trembled with just a flicker of hesitation— Not much, but enough to make Nicholas’ stomach clench with want.
His fingers were so long that when he cupped Nicholas’ ass cheek, the tips of his fingers were dangerously close to the edge of the dildo. “Fuck, baby what are you doing to me?” Euijoo growled against Nicholas’ mouth before ducking down and trailing kisses over his jaw and to his ear. Euijoo inhaled Nicholas’ scent deeply, unmoving for a few beats as he breathed him in. He drooled as he licked a fat stripe behind Nicholas’ ear. “God fucking dammit, Nicho.”
“You want me,” Nicholas whispered, tangling a hand into Euijoo’s long, shaggy hair.
“Yes.” Euijoo breathed, but his voice broke around the singular word. “God, yes. I’ve always wanted you, Nicholas.”
“Then take me.” Nicholas tightened his grip, moving Euijoo’s head and forcing him to make eye contact. His heat was only deepening, and Euijoo surely felt the warmth radiating off of him, but this conversation was too important to Nicholas.
“I’m scared,” Euijoo finally admitted. His voice was fragile, quiet, and his eyes fluttered shut as he leaned into Nicholas’ touch.
“Of what?” Nicholas whispered, eyes watering and chest swelling with fondness.
“Hurting you, damaging the pack… I’m scared of what would happen if our fans found out— If our company found out.”
Nicholas understood, but the love he had for the alpha outweighed all of the possible negative outcomes. He didn’t care what happened in the future - All he cared about was whether or not they tried. He said the same to Euijoo and watched as the alpha smiled, a soft, sweet smile that intensified Nicholas’ feelings.
“Okay.”
”What?” Nicholas asked, surprise coloring his tone.
Euijoo’s eyes opened and he looked at Nicholas with the same amount of affection that Nicholas was sure reflected in his. “Let’s try.”
A whirlwind of emotions soared through Nicholas’ body, overwhelming his senses. He didn’t know what to say, so he opted to pull Euijoo back down, capturing the alpha’s lips in a needy kiss.
Euijoo groaned and trailed his hands over Nicholas’ body again, leaving fire in their wake as Nicholas’ heat pulled him under.
“What do you want me to do, baby? Tell me, I’ll do whatever you want.” Euijoo mumbled against Nicholas’ lips, nipping at them playfully.
Nicholas hummed, his thoughts coming too slowly to answer. All he could do was buck his hips, silently begging Euijoo to understand.
“I need you to tell me, baby. I want to hear you say it.” Euijoo pulled out of Nicholas’ reach and stared down at him, a playful gleam in his eyes.
“Juju…” Nicholas flushed, embarrassment coloring his features. He wasn’t normally the type to be shy, but with his heat and the weight of all the emotions he had been through over the course of twenty-four hours, he struggled to say what he wanted.
“Nicho,” Euijoo purred meanly, making Nicholas’ gut twist with need. “Tell me, Omega.”
Nicholas’ instincts flared, pupils eclipsing as heat rushed through him. They both heard the squelching sound of Nicholas’ hole clenching around the dildo, but neither of them said anything about it. Nicholas was dazed, blinking so slowly, needy as his hips kicked under Euijoo’s weight.
“Don’t keep me waiting, Omega.” Euijoo scolded and leaned down to inhale the scent gland at the base of Nichols’ neck. “Mmmfuck, you smell so good.”
Nicholas cried out and his neglected cock twitched and he continued to clamp hard around the dildo. He wished it was Euijoo that was seated inside him, stretching him out and fucking the heat out of him.
“Touch me, please.” Nicholas finally whined, panting as Euijoo pressed a chaste kiss to his scent gland.
“I am touching you, baby.”
”Alpha!” Nicholas groaned, frustrated when Euijoo ran his teeth over the swollen and sensitive gland. “Fuck me! Please Juju, I need you inside me, I need your knot - Please, please, fuck!”
”Shit,” Euijoo groaned and sat up, reaching for the hem of his shirt as he did. Nicholas drooled, watching in rapt attention as Euijoo’s pretty body came into view. “You drive me fucking crazy, you know that right?”
Then their lips were crashing together, and Euijoo was hungrily licking into Nicholas’ mouth, drinking him down and taking what he wanted. Nicholas was helpless under Euijoo's intensity. It was like he was pouring years of yearning into that kiss, and Nicholas returned it full force, clawing at the alpha’s back as he held him close. His hands traveled down the length of Euijoo’s spine and he purred when the alpha shuddered in response.
“I’m gonna make love to you, Nicho. Gonna give you everything you’ve ever wanted, baby.” Euijoo hummed, head tipping to the side to mouth at Nicholas’ neck as the omega shoved his hands into his sweats. He used his feet to help push the offensive clothing off of his alpha, huffing from the effort proudly when Euijoo kicked them off.
“Please, Alpha.” Nicholas drawled, eyes hooded and whiny as his omega took over.
“Oh baby,” he cooed. “You’re in deep aren’t you?” Nicholas just nodded and pulled his legs up, holding onto the backs of his thighs as Euijoo pushed back to sit on his feet. “Fuck, I wish you could see yourself.”
Euijoo flattened his palms along the inside of Nicholas’ thighs, moaning a little when the omega twitched.
“Let’s get this thing out of you,” Euijoo growled, holding onto the base of the dildo. He pulled gently and Nicholas cried out, feeling the fake knot pop free before Euijoo pulled the rest of it out. “All mine.”
Nicholas chanced a look at Euijoo and he shuddered, watching as Euijoo stared at his messy hole. Euijoo seemed to snap just as Nicholas was about to beg, diving in to lap up the mess of slick. He groaned so gutterally that Nicholas’ cock twitched, following the line of slick until he reached the source.
“Fuck!” Nicholas cried out, tangling his hands into Euijoo’s hair as the alpha’s tongue slipped inside.
“Baby, you taste so good.” Euijoo praised before going back for more. Nicholas could feel the way his tongue pumped inside, shoveling the slick out and into his mouth. The thought alone made Nicholas cum all over his stomach, untouched and pathetic as he cried for Euijoo. “Perfect - Such a fucking perfect omega. You’re so fucking good.”
Nicholas’ head was spinning and his fever raged on, making him more and more desperate for Euijoo. “Okay, Alpha. That’s enough for now, please. Please, I've waited for so long.”
Euijoo groaned and tore himself away from Nicholas’ entrance, not bothering to wipe his face as he shoved his briefs down his thin hips. Nicholas groaned, finally seeing Euijoo’s cock and feeling the way his body bared down in preparation.
“You like that, baby?” Euijoo drawled, and it was so unlike him that Nicholas chuckled nervously, his eyes searching the alpha’s face for signs of rut. He found exactly what he suspected and sighed happily, lifting his legs even higher to present himself for his soon to be mate.
Euijoo was responding to Nicholas’ heat, meaning that they were going to be together for a very, very long time.
It was normal for alpha’s to feel a little feral around a heated omega, or even for them to go into a flash rut, but it wasn’t normal for them to respond to a heat by entering a full blown mating cycle. Euijoo’s knot was already forming at the base, a dead giveaway that he was entering his rut cycle. Not only that, but Euijoo’s scent had begun to sweeten even further, carrying some of Nicholas’ fruity properties along with his typical musk.
“Alpha,” Nicholas purred. “I need you now.”
“Condom?” Euijoo asked, slowly stroking himself with a lazy smile. Nicholas growled, his omega clearly displeased by the idea. “I don’t want to pup you, baby. Not yet, anyway. So condom?”
”I’m on birth control.” Nicholas grumbled and wiggled his hips, trying to get Euijoo to just fuck him already.
”Alright, alright, but when your heat is over I’m taking you to the doctor and we’re going to get you some post mating contraception too.” Euijoo waited for Nicholas to nod in agreement and then he was lining up.
Nicholas forced himself to relax, but Euijoo’s cock was so fucking big it took his breath away. Euijoo slid in slowly, groaning when Nicholas’ slick squelched lewdly and gushed out, soaking their thighs in strawberry scented wetness.
Nicholas tipped his head back with a moan, feeling the way Euijoo’s cock stretched him inch by inch and inflated his stomach. He came the second Euijoo pressed all the way in, his back arching off the bed wantonly.
“Fuck you’re so big, Alpha.” He groaned and touched his stomach, toying a little with the shape of the bulge.
“Nicho,” Euijoo whined. “You feel so good around me, just like I imagined.”
Nicholas’ eyes fluttered at the praise. “You’ve fantasized about this?”
Euijoo rocked his hips shallowly, punching soft little whines from Nicholas. He grinned down at the omega, eyes hooded lazily. He looked way too hot like this, with his long hair hanging around his face, toned body gleaming with sweat, and a hint of something feral taking over his aura.
“Of course I have,” he pulled back and pushed back in slowly, closing his eyes with a sigh when Nicholas moaned. “I’ve had a crush on you since before we even presented. Wanted this for so long, baby.”
Nicholas was going to answer, but Euijoo pulled out and started moving for real, and Nicholas had no choice but to succumb to the pleasure. His heat made every nerve ending sing with electricity, and each time Euijoo hit his prostate it just made him more and more useless. Nicholas took it, basking in the stretch and watching Euijoo’s cock move inside him with each thrust. He whined, tossing his head back when the alpha’s knot caught on his rim before pulling free.
“Alpha,” Nicholas cried out as pleasure built from deep in his core.
Euijoo groaned and leaned in, lapping at Nicholas’ scent gland as his cock fucked into Nicholas impossibly deeper. “Gonna take care of you, baby. Wait for Alpha, okay?” His voice was deep and rich, honeyed with the effects of his rut, and Nicholas groaned in response.
Euijoo sat up and shoved Nicholas’ legs down, folding the omega in half and railing him harder. Nicholas all but screamed, nearly blacking out as the change in position made him tighten even harder around the alpha’s cock.
“Euijoo, fuck, I’m— I can’t hold on much longer, oh hnggg.” His stomach tightened and he moaned loudly, scratching at Euijoo’s chest desperately. Nicholas was chasing his release, staring up at his alpha with nothing but love and pure need as Euijoo’s cock worked him towards his peak.
Euijoo’s grip on Nicholas’ legs was harsh enough to leave bruises, and their hips slammed together so loudly that it made Nicholas flush. He whimpered, lower lip wobbling when he felt pleasure licking up his spine, making it nearly impossible to wait for Euijoo. The alpha just smirked down at him - Proud, elated even, as he fucked Nicholas dumb.
When he snapped his hips, Nicholas came with a scream, painting his chest and moaning a slurred version of Euijoo’s name. Euijoo worked him through it, praising Nicholas and wiping his tears as he fucked him into overstimulation.
Nicholas’ cock was still standing proudly at attention and he groaned as he came down. As good as it felt, it wasn’t going to be enough - Not until Nicholas was knotted.
Euijoo slowly sat back on his heels and allowed Nicholas to stretch out his spine, but Nicholas knew he was starting to get impatient. His knot had fully inflated, and Nicholas reached down to trail his fingertips over it curiously, giggling a little when Euijoo hissed.
“So sensitive, Alpha,” Nicholas cooed. “Let me ride you?”
Euijoo’s nostrils flared and he grumbled, “I can do it.”
“I know you can do it, you’ve been fucking me so well. But your cock is so goddamn big that I can’t stop thinking about fucking myself on it, Alpha.”
Euijoo hesitated a second longer before wrapping his arms around Nicholas’ waist and flipping them over. Nicholas giggled, the sound breaking into a moan when Euijoo’s cock twitched inside him.
Nicholas braced himself with his hands flat on Euijoo’s chest, and he slowly lifted up to the tip of the alpha’s cock before slamming back down. Euijoo hissed, grabbing Nicholas’ hips and digging into the flesh with his fingers. They groaned in unison, and Nicholas tipped his head back in pleasure.
Nicholas alternated between grinding and fully impaling himself on Euijoo’s cock, finding a steady rhythm that had them both panting and moaning. But when the fever washed over Nicholas again, he knew it wasn’t going to be enough.
He whined and sat back, resting his hands on Euijoo’s thighs and propping himself up on his feet so he could slam down the way he needed. Euijoo met each thrust, and when the fat tip of his cock hit something deep inside, Nicholas wailed, his whole body shaking with hot pleasure.
“Shit, do that again baby, I’m gonna cum.” Euijoo hissed and ran his hands over the sensitive skin of Nicholas’ thighs.
Nicholas obeyed, his body jolting and legs threatening to close each time. His mouth hung open dumbly and his eyes were full of tears as he slammed down on Euijoo’s cock.
“P- Please breed me, Alpha. I need your knot so bad, it hurts, please.” Nicholas cried and chanted Euijoo’s name when the alpha fucked up into him with purpose.
His knot caught on Nicholas’ rim and popped back out with an audible squelching sound and Nicholas begged, slurring and whining to be pupped by the alpha.
“Alpha’s got you, don’t worry. My pretty omega, we’re gonna have such beautiful pups, hm? I’ll take care of you, ah fuck, Nicho.” His thrusts grew sloppy and Nicholas struggled to keep up the pace, but when Euijoo’s knot finally slipped fully inside his hole, the alpha growled. “You’re mine forever now, baby.”
Nicholas’ heat broke and he came with a strangled moan as Euijoo filled him with hot spurts of cum that inflated his stomach even further. It didn’t stop, and Nicholas whined when he felt his hole clamping down on Euijoo to keep it from spilling out of him.
“Fuck,” Nicholas squeaked, all of the energy sapped from his body.
Euijoo was quick to try to adjust them, coaxing Nicholas to slide his legs back and lean forward so he could collapse on Euijoo’s chest. It was awkward and uncomfortable because he had been knotted in the reverse cowgirl position, but Euijoo was so gentle that it made Nicholas’ heart swell.
“I love you,” Euijoo said after a little while, drawing shapes into Nicholas’ sweat-coated skin.
Nicholas purred, rubbing his nose into the crook of Euijoo’s neck. He smiled dopily and fondness exploded in his chest. This was all he had ever wanted, and he was so grateful that he could finally have it.
“I love you too, Juju.” They kissed softly and cuddled up, deciding to take a nap until the next wave of their cycles hit.
🍓✨
Nicholas had been fucked and knotted in ways that were probably offensive to omegas all around the world, but he was loving every second of it. Euijoo made him feel so safe and secure to be who he was, and ask for what he wanted, even if Nicholas felt a little nervous each time he asked to try something new.
This was definitely not what most couples did during mating cycles, but Nicholas had been so in love with Euijoo for so long— He had been dreaming, no, he had been fantasizing about all the ways Euijoo would take him apart for years.
So when he shyly asked the alpha to choke him, or slap him around a little, Nicholas was both pleased and surprised when Euijoo immediately established a safewording system. He was interested in it too. And he didn’t judge Nicholas for indulging in his kinks; He provided a safe system for them, insisting they wait until they were in between waves to fully discuss what Nicholas or Euijoo wanted to try.
The last knot had been spent with Nicholas dominating Euijoo, degrading the alpha for being so useless even though it was far from the truth. But that had been what Euijoo wanted, and they both got off on it, immediately deciding that they were definitely into the idea of switching. The same couldn’t be said for when Nicholas shyly requested to top sometime.
Euijoo had bristled, immediately shaking his head no. “Sorry baby,” he had said. “Me and my alpha aren’t into that.”
Nicholas pouted but he accepted Euijoo’s answer for what it was, plus Euijoo had spent Nicholas’ next wave sucking Nicholas off until he came down his throat, so he still got to be inside the alpha at least.
They were laying together now, still coming down from the last knot even though it had been about an hour, and Euijoo’s cock had definitely grown flaccid within him.
“Juju,” Nicholas lifted his head up after another twenty minutes or so had passed.
“Mmm?”
”I’m still okay for a little bit, so do you think you could maybe…” he trailed off and swallowed the drool that had already begun to pool behind his teeth. “Do you think you could knot my mouth?” His cock twitched as he said the words, and he felt Euijoo’s stir a little inside him as well.
“Fuck,” the alpha groaned. “Yeah baby, I can do that for you. Think you can handle it?” Euijoo waggled his eyebrows suggestively and Nicholas fought the urge to roll his eyes.
Instead he leaned in and purred, “I don’t have a gag reflex,” into Euijoo’s ear.
Euijoo’s chest rumbled against Nicholas’ and the alpha’s big hands gripped his hips hard as he lifted Nicholas off of his semi-hard cock. “Let’s see how far that takes you, sweetheart. Alpha’s cock is bigger than your little heat toys.”
Nicholas moaned and allowed himself to be manhandled by Euijoo, giggling a little when the alpha leapt off the bed and directed Nicholas to lay on his back with his head dangling off.
“I think this will be the most comfortable position instead of you leaning over me.” Euijoo hummed and moved Nicholas’ arms to wrap around the back of his thighs so that his fingers were touching the inside. “If you need to take a break, give me a pinch on my left leg. If you need to stop, pinch my right leg. Otherwise I’m going to assume you’re okay.”
Nicholas looked up at him dreamily, enjoying the view of Euijoo’s lithe frame from under his hardened cock. “You’re so pretty,” he sighed, dragging his hands up and down Euijoo’s inner thighs. His heat was beginning to burn yet again in his core, but Nicholas ignored it in favor of leaning his head up and inhaling the scent glands buried in Euijoo’s groin. “Fuck, Alpha,” his head swam and Nicholas wished he could nip at them. But with the angle of his head, he wouldn’t be able to latch on the way he wanted.
He stored the idea for later, but he was already itching with the need to suck bruises into the musky glands.
Euijoo petted Nicholas’ head with a small coo, and began stroking himself languidly, sighing a little as he worked himself to full hardness. “Are you ready, baby?” He asked, voice rough with lust, and Nicholas nodded, tipping his head back and dropping his mouth open.
Euijoo dragged the wet cockhead over Nicholas’ lips to start, moaning about how pretty they were as he did it. Nicholas stuck his tongue out in response and lapped at the salty-sweet taste of Euijoo’s precum, his own stomach clenching needily.
“God, you should see yourself.” Euijoo mumbled and dipped the head of his cock past Nicholas’ lips, watching in rapt attention as he suckled on it. “So beautiful, Nicho. And you smell so delicious for me, baby. Alpha will give you what you need once I pop my knot.” He slid in a little further and Nicholas had to tip his head back further to open up the back of his throat for the large intrusion. “Gonna breed my sweet omega so well.”
Nicholas keened at his words, moving his hands up so he could cup Euijoo’s ass and push him deeper into his mouth. Euijoo just chuckled above him, the sound almost menacing, but Nicholas knew by now that it was a good noise - One of surprise. His cock was hitting the back of Nicholas’ throat now and Nicholas inhaled through his nose, dropping his tongue so Euijoo could slide deeper.
“Fuck, feels so good. Even your throat is tight for me, baby, so so good.” Euijoo groaned and flexed his hips, bullying his cock so deep that Nicholas’ stomach actually heaved. Euijoo chuckled, satisfied as he pulled out. “Told you, baby.”
Nicholas took a few seconds to catch his breath, coughing and spluttering a little to clear his throat of the copious amounts of saliva his body had produced in response. Euijoo cooed at him, his cock dripping Nicholas’ drool onto the omega’s face while he attempted to compose himself. Eventually Nicholas relaxed and he laid his head back down, opening his mouth yet again for Euijoo.
“Sweet baby, letting Alpha use your throat like this,” Euijoo started back up immediately, sliding home on the first thrust and making Nicholas cry out in surprise, the muffled sound vibrating around his cock. Nicholas’ stomach lurched again and he whimpered, hands scrambling in an attempt to ground himself. “Remember what we talked about, Nicho. If you need a break, pinch me,” Euijoo growled.
Tears pricked at the corners of Nicholas’ eyes and he inhaled deeply, trying once again to drop his tongue and relax around Euijoo’s cock.
“Good boy, Nicho, just like that.” Euijoo praised him and rocked his hips experimentally. “Fuck, I can see myself in here.” Euijoo wrapped his hands around Nicholas’ neck, thumbs pressing gently against where his cock was bulging.
Nicholas’ eyes fluttered and a shiver wracked through him as heat twisted up in his insides. Fuck, he was going to need a knot soon. But he didn’t want to stop Euijoo from fucking his face - Especially because he was the one who wanted this.
Euijoo was building a pace, and Nicholas could feel the knot beginning to form at the base, so he stuck with it, ignoring the way his head began to feel floaty. Nicholas just took it, absorbing all of Euijoo’s praise with soft, pleased moans as his lips were spread impossibly wide. It burned, and his jaw fucking ached, but he was so satisfied that he didn’t stop the alpha from continuing.
“Love the way I can feel your teeth, baby, fuck.” Euijoo was panting and his knot was swelling more and more, beginning to stretch Nicholas’ mouth even more. “Sounds so filthy too, mm, my dirty boy.”
Nicholas purred and his cock jumped, neglected and useless against his stomach. Tears, snot, and drool were streaming down his face, soaking into his sweat-matted hair, but Nicholas knew Euijoo was close. He moved his hands, one going to slide between Euijoo’s thighs, the other wrapping around the base of the alpha’s cock. He pressed into the scent gland under his right hand, toying with the swollen knot at the same time with his left, and that was all it took for Euijoo to lock his knot behind Nicholas’ teeth with a loud groan.
Nicholas would’ve cried out in response, but Euijoo’s cock was pulsing with shot after shot of hot cum, painting Nicholas’ throat with his load. It was so much, and Nicholas was struggling to swallow it all, especially with the knot tucked behind his teeth. He whined and gagged, forcing some of the cum up and out from the seal of his lips.
Euijoo couldn’t see his face thanks to the position of his body, but Nicholas was absolutely blissed out, regardless of the fact that he could barely breathe, and he was swallowing enough cum to fill his stomach. Nicholas was more than happy to find that it didn’t taste bad, it just tasted like Euijoo - Salty, musky, and sweet. Nicholas felt drunk on it, and the heat that had been tightening in his core was suddenly a raging flame, making him cry and thrash around while he waited for Euijoo’s knot to deflate.
“Shh, Nicho. I know— Alpha knows, baby.” Euijoo’s raspy voice would have normally soothed Nicholas immediately, but his heat was ravishing his insides, making him nearly inconsolable.
He panicked, huffing and crying with his mouth spread open. Euijoo tried, he spoke to him softly as well as in the domineering timbre, but nothing could settle the frantic omega.
“Nicholas, if you can’t settle down and breathe, I’ll have to call Yudai or Harua.” Euijoo growled, and Nicholas knew he was in pain from Nicholas struggling to keep his teeth away from the knot.
“No!” Nicholas shouted around the large obstruction and gagged. He pinched Euijoo’s inner thigh hard with his right hand, signaling to Euijoo that he needed to stop.
“Baby, I’m sorry I can’t get you off on my own. If you can’t calm down and take a deep breath through your nose, I have to call for help.” Euijoo was being reasonable, clear headed, but Nicholas wanted nothing to do with it. He was angry that Euijoo would even suggest calling another omega into their nest while the alpha was rutting. He pinched him hard again and gagged when his throat tightened up around Euijoo. “I’m sorry baby,” he sighed.
Euijoo reached behind them, presumably searching for the phone that lay on the side table. Nicholas pinched him harder and harder, growling as he did, but he couldn’t deny that he was choking and putting himself in a dangerous position. There was no leveling with Nicholas; He was distraught, feverish, and pissed off.
“Do you want Harua, baby?” Euijoo asked gently, but a sharp hiss cut off his words with Nicholas pinched him even harder. Euijoo lifted a leg and craned his head over his shoulder so he could make eye contact with Nicholas, who was using the angriest, most pleading eyes he could muster. “No other omegas?”
“No.” Nicholas slurred around Euijoo’s cock and rolled his eyes at the way the alpha snorted.
“Alpha,” Euijoo said, lifting his phone to his ear. “We need your help - Come alone and spray yourself down if you’ve been with the omegas. Please don’t ask me any questions right now.”
It took less than five minutes for Yudai to burst into the dorm, and Nicholas was still choking around Euijoo’s dick, which for the record, was not going down at all - And that was hardly Nicholas’ fault. It was his big dumb alpha’s fault for still finding it pleasurable enough to stay locked inside his mouth.
“Euijoo? Nicho?” Yudai sounded frantic as he ran through their dorm. Euijoo had just barely enough sense to cover Nicholas’ aching boner with a random hoodie before Yudai entered the nest. “Oh my fu—“
”Yudai,” Euijoo growled in warning. “I told you not to ask me any questions.”
Nicholas couldn’t see the pack alpha thanks to Euijoo’s body looming over him, but he could tell that Yudai was pissed. He could feel the distressed pheromones radiating off of him as he approached them, and Nicholas whimpered a little, gagging wetly once more.
“How can I help?” He was seething, but Yudai listened to Euijoo and didn’t ask how or why they got into this predicament.
“I need you to either press in on my knot, or help Nicho unhinge his jaw enough for me to pull out. Whatever you decide to do, I’ll do the other, but I can’t do both by myself and Nicho is too out of it right now to listen to my instructions.”
“Nicho, love, would you be okay with my fingers going into your mouth? Blink once for yes, and twice for no, I can see your face from here.” Yudai waited for Nicholas to decide.
Nicholas didn’t want another alpha touching him at all right now, but he also didn’t want Yudai touching Euijoo’s knot either… He tried to clear his throat, but it was no use, it was still full of cum and saliva and it just made Nicholas gag harder. Tears streamed from his eyes and he felt his omega begin to panic - He was trapped, and the pack alpha was seeing him in heat with his partner, and it was all just too much for Nicholas.
“Okay, I’m so sorry sweetheart but your time to decide is over.” Yudai said and suddenly Euijoo’s fingers were entering Nicholas’ mouth alongside his knot, and Yudai was gently squeezing both hands around the base of Euijoo’s cock.
Euijoo was making a mixture of noises - Pained and pleasured, and both made Nicholas’ omega bristle, but he did his best to remain calm despite the fact that another man was touching his mate right in front of his eyes.
Finally, Euijoo’s cock sprung free and Nicholas turned over out of instinct, coughing and heaving in an attempt to clear his airway. What a stupid, stupid fucking decision. They were never doing that shit ever again during mating cycles.
“Are you okay, baby?” Euijoo asked, patting Nicholas’ back and running his other hand through his sweaty hair.
“Need knotted,” Nicholas gasped through his spluttering, “Please!”
“Can you take a drink of water and wait for Yudai to leave?” Euijoo asked softly, still attempting to soothe Nicholas’ distressed omega.
But Nicholas’ emotions were too high, and his heat far too hot. He was burning up so badly that he was trembling, and he looked up at Euijoo with a pained whine. “Alpha, please, it hurts so bad. My skin is burning, and my stomach is cramping so bad it feels like I’ll die without your knot, please!”
“Nicholas, just let me get you some water and I’ll get out of here so Euijoo can take care of you, okay?” Yudai’s voice was soft, like he was approaching a wild animal, but Nicholas was frantic.
“Sit in the goddamn living room for all I care, my heat is peaking, I need Euijoo more than a sip of water.” Nicholas growled, glaring over his shoulder at Yudai before snapping his head to look at Euijoo expectantly. Euijoo looked concerned and torn on what to do, but ultimately his instincts won.
Euijoo turned Nicholas on his side and heaved him up the bed before crawling in behind him. He spoke to Yudai as he did, and Nicholas shivered when he felt the alpha’s cockhead pushing through the mess of slick between his asscheeks, coating himself in Nicholas’ strawberry scented wetness.
The alphas continued to talk even as Euijoo pushed in, both of them ignoring Nicholas’ groan of relief. Normally, Nicholas might have been mortified by this situation, but it was their nature, and Yudai didn’t seem to be watching even though he was standing in the room with them while Euijoo fucked into Nicholas.
One of Euijoo’s arms slipped under Nicholas’ leg and he pulled it up, coaxing the omega to bend his knee so that he would have better leverage. Nicholas followed easily and tilted his head back to rest it on Euijoo’s shoulder, soft huffs of pleasure rumbling out of his chest when Euijoo bottomed out and began to pump into him.
Nicholas could hear them talking, but his brain couldn’t decipher the meaning of their words - He was too focused on quelling the fire that raged within him. He was so sensitive, moaning in wanton when Euijoo rubbed his side affectionately. His pleasure sparked like a live wire and he came with Euijoo’s name on his lips, but it did nothing, and Euijoo knew it. Eventually, Yudai seemed to have left the room, leaving Euijoo to care for Nicholas the way he needed.
“You’re such a good omega, so perfect for me baby. You didn't even want our alpha’s hands in your mouth, hm? You only wanted me, isn’t that right baby?” Euijoo whispered into Nicholas’ ear and he cried out when the alpha slammed into him, finally hitting that spot deep, deep inside that Nicholas was craving. “My sweetheart, begging to be fucked even though Yudai was watching. You drive me fucking crazy, god I love you so much.”
“Only you,” Nicholas panted, a sickening smile decorating his pretty face. “Needed you so bad, don’t care who’s around to witness it.”
Euijoo moaned in response and pistoned his hips harder, fucking into Nicholas with renewed purpose. “You’re all mine, baby. And Alpha is all yours, never forget that, hm? Wanted you so bad, I can’t believe I get to have you like this. Thank you for trusting me, Nicho.”
Nicholas came with a long, drawn out, “I love you, Euijoo.” The alpha moaned, and his knot locked them together as he spilled his release deep into the satiated omega.
Nicholas was roused a few minutes later by Yudai, who had brought him a bottle of water with a bendy straw. “Here, take a sip, Nicho.” His eyes danced with something akin to pride and fondness, and Nicholas smiled weakly at the alpha. He took a long drink, savoring the way it soothed his sore throat. “Good boy, thank you. Now, as happy as I am for the two of you, I cannot be here in this disgusting room for any longer. Seriously, oral knotting, what the fuck is wrong with you two.” Yudai shuddered and left them, but he shot a wink to Nicholas as he slipped out of the room, letting him know that the pack would figure out what to do to keep them safe.
Nicholas giggled a little, the sound close to maniacal as Euijoo nuzzled into his neck and wrapped his arms around his middle.
“What are you laughing about, hm?” Euijoo’s voice danced with mirth and he placed a sweet kiss to Nicholas’ sweaty neck, lapping at his skin to taste him.
“I can’t believe all of that just happened,” Nicholas craned his neck to grant the alpha more access. “I’m sorry my idea went so wrong.” He was pouting, but Euijoo was stroking his stomach so fondly, and releasing such comforting pheromones that Nicholas knew he wasn’t upset.
“It was a lot of fun, you just panicked… And it was too late to do anything about it once your fever took you under. I’m sorry I didn’t have enough foresight to think about that possibility.”
“You don’t need to apologize, Juju. I enjoyed myself up to that point, and I would love to do it again sometime when we’re not in our mating cycles.” Nicholas confessed, smiling softly when a deep purr rumbled through Euijoo.
“That’s the first time you’ve said anything about us being together after this.”
Nicholas froze for a second, realizing that Euijoo was right - Neither of them had asked about what happened after this. “You— I mean, you were planning on us being together right?”
Euijoo hummed softly and lapped at Nicholas’ scent gland, but it was a little bit of an awkward angle thanks to their spooning position. “Baby, I’ll mate you during the last knot. I want you to be mine, and I want to be yours.”
Nicholas flushed, but he couldn’t hide the wide grin that spread across his face. “I want that too, alpha.”
“Good,” Euijoo moved his head back to the pillow they were sharing. “For now, let's take a nap.”
Nicholas yawned, already agreeing. He was satisfied, full of his alpha’s cock, and being lulled to sleep by the cuddles Euijoo was spoiling him with. Nicholas allowed himself to fall asleep, safe and sound in Euijoo’s arms.
🍓✨
When they woke up, Euijoo slowly pulled out and slipped a plug into Nicholas in his place, wanting to keep the cum from spilling out. Nicholas rolled over in his arms once he was done, giggling when Euijoo immediately started acting like he was going to eat the omega’s face.
“You’re so pretty,” Euijoo said, a pink flush dusting his cheeks.
“You too,” Nicholas smiled breathlessly. “Do you wanna eat something before the next wave hits?”
Euijoo hummed in acknowledgement and stood up, stretching tall and groaning when his bones cracked from the last few days of being wrapped up in bed with Nicholas. He turned and smiled, holding a hand out for Nicholas to take, and helping him out of bed. Nicholas was feeling really tired, but Euijoo wasn’t exactly a chef, and if he wanted to eat something good, Nicholas knew he would need to be in charge of cooking.
“What sounds good, love?” Euijoo asked, wrapping around Nicholas’ back as the omega looked through the refrigerator.
“Hmm, I could make a mixture of egg drop soup and dumpling soup?” It would give them all the things their bodies needed, plus it was really easy and tasty. Nicholas smiled when Euijoo nodded behind him and he gathered the ingredients, laughing when the alpha refused to let him go.
Nicholas warmed the chicken broth on the stove and tossed several frozen dumplings in, letting them warm up as he scrambled the eggs and cropped up some green onion. Euijoo cooed at him in wonder when the egg ribbons formed just like Nicholas had told him they would, and they were both drooling once he tossed the green onions in.
“Done!” Nicholas smiled proudly and dished up both of their bowls. They ate and talked about mundane things, and Nicholas was happy to find that Euijoo was still his friend, even though they had agreed to become mates. He loved Euijoo, and he thought it was important for them to have the strong foundation of friendship at their core. It would only help them in the future if they ever had any issues.
“That was so good, baby, thank you.” Euijoo smiled and Nicholas swooned, leaning in to press a chaste kiss to the alpha’s pretty lips. “Should we shower while we’re still level headed?”
”Hmm, probably.” Nicholas chugged a bottle of water while Euijoo did the dishes, making sure to take care of himself now that he knew their next knot was going to be intense. Nicholas’ heat was most likely going to be finished after this one, and he knew Euijoo’s rut was almost finished too.
The thought of their private little bubble being burst soon made Nicholas a little sad, but he couldn’t lie and say he didn’t miss his pack - He missed them deeply, especially Maki and Harua. They were his other best friends, and he was excited to see them after four days of being in heat.
“Let’s go get cleaned up, sweetheart.” Euijoo smiled fondly and held Nicholas’ hand, pulling him to the closest bathroom. They left the door open because they could, and Nicholas started the shower, turning to wrap his arms around Euijoo while they waited for the water to warm up.
Euijoo kissed him softly, just innocent little smacks of their lips and soft flicks of tongue, but it made Nicholas’ body buzz regardless. He wasn’t sure he would ever tire of Euijoo, and the thought made him grin against the alpha’s mouth.
“What?” Euijoo asked, eyebrows furrowed in curiosity.
“I just love you,” Nicholas smiled and pressed another sweet kiss to his lips. “And I’m excited to be your mate.” Euijoo groaned and Nicholas felt the alpha’s cock twitch a little between them. “Hold on just a little longer, Alpha. After we shower, you can mate me and breed me for as long as you want.”
Euijoo shivered and turned Nicholas around suddenly, bending him over the bathroom counter and knocking a surprised sound from him. Euijoo spread his cheeks with one hand and pulled the plug out with the other before standing him back up. ”Let’s make it quick, love.” His eyes danced with something Nicholas hadn’t seen before, but he assumed it was the primal urge to claim.
Nicholas had heard that an alpha’s final knot was the most intense, and he supposed it made sense; The final knot was probably a last ditch effort to procreate, making it last longer. Nicholas would say the end of his heats were probably like that too, but he was usually too out of it to really pay attention. To Nicholas, the most desperation came during his peak, but this was his first time with a heat partner.
Euijoo and Nicholas stepped into the shower, both of them groaning when the warm water washed away the tension in their muscles. They washed each other’s bodies and hair, sharing sweet kisses between steps. Euijoo had accidentally gotten shampoo into Nicholas’ eyes, and he took it very seriously, even reading the back of the bottle to figure out what to do.
But Nicholas had just laughed and rinsed his eyes out, blinking them quickly to make sure they didn’t burn anymore before he turned back around. Euijoo had apologized profusely, feeling horrible that he caused Nicholas any pain, but Nicholas just shushed him with a kiss.
The last step was washing the cum out of his ass, and even though Euijoo had already seen all Nicholas had to offer, it still felt awkward when Nicholas leaned over and shoved his fingers inside himself to scoop out the release. Eventually, Euijoo helped, ignoring Nicholas’ whines that it was embarrassing.
“I’m the one who came inside you,” Euijoo stated. Nicholas could practically hear the way the alpha had rolled his eyes. “It’s my mess, I should be the one to clean it up.”
“Okay but you don’t have to be so… thorough, you’re about to cum inside me again.” Nicholas muttered, his face flaming with embarrassment.
“I want you squeaky clean, baby. Gotta satisfy my urge to fill you as full as I can one more time.” Euijoo grunted and scissored his fingers inside Nicholas, scooping as much out of him as possible. Eventually he seemed satisfied, and he straightened Nicholas back up, looking at him with a feral gaze.
Oh.
Euijoo moved so slowly, pinning Nicholas with his eyes as he reached around to shut the water off. It was like he was daring Nicholas to run away from him, but that would never happen. Nicholas was Euijoo’s for the taking, and when heady sandalwood overwhelmed his senses, Nicholas bared his throat, submitting to the alpha’s intensity.
“That’s right, baby.” Euijoo’s tone dripped with that glorious timbre that made Nicholas’ knees weak, and he whimpered a little, swallowing hard as Euijoo leaned in to nose at his scent gland. “Can’t wait to mark you here, make you mine forever.”
Nicholas shook and he subconsciously pumped out his own pheromones, surely sweet enough to give Euijoo a cavity, but the alpha just moaned in response. Euijoo picked him up easily, despite the differences in their physiques, and Nicholas wrapped his legs around the alpha’s waist.
Clearly, they weren’t wasting time on frivolous things like drying off, and Nicholas didn’t give a fuck. His heat was searing hot once more in anticipation for what was about to happen. He was going to be claimed, marked as one half of a whole, and that’s how he had always felt about Euijoo.
Euijoo completed Nicholas in all the ways he was missing. Euijoo was steady where he was restless, quiet where Nicholas was loud. They just fit— Like it was instinctual, as easy as breathing. And god, Nicholas was so in love. Hopelessly, hungrily, like his body was aching for Euijoo. He wanted this with every fiber of his being, and he told Euijoo as much, tangling his hands into the alpha’s hair and kissing him as Euijoo carried them back into the nest.
Their combined scents danced around the room, making Nicholas sigh happily. Euijoo’s scent had already begun to change when their cycles started, but soon, they would both carry each other’s complex scents. Nicholas moaned when Euijoo laid him back on the bed, never separating even if it was an awkward transition.
Euijoo kissed Nicholas with the same amount of care, pouring his love and emotions into it. He trailed them down his jaw and to his neck, licking and sucking little bruises in his wake. Nicholas tossed his head back, pleasure singeing his nerve endings with each drag of Euijoo’s mouth.
“Alpha,” he moaned.
“Omega?”
“Take me,” Nicholas whimpered, desperation building once again.
“I will, baby. Let me enjoy this, we only get one first time, my love.” Euijoo shushed him, and Nicholas surrendered to the slow onslaught of affection.
Euijoo kissed his way down Nicholas’ neck and up the other side, nipping playfully at his ear lobe when he reached it. His tongue was magical, despite not doing anything more than spoiling Nicholas with love, but Nicholas couldn’t stop whining with each lap of the wet muscle.
When Euijoo was satisfied with the marks along Nicholas’ neck, he moved south, pausing at Nicholas’ pulsing scent gland to pepper sweet kisses around it. He sucked a line of bruises down to one of Nicholas’ nipples, then wrapped his lips around it, staring up at Nicholas as he bit down gently.
“Shit, feels so good.” Nicholas moaned, his back arching off the bed.
Euijoo was quick to pin him back down, a sly smile lighting up his pretty face as he switched sides. Heat was thrumming through Nicholas’ body and his cock twitched against Euijoo’s stomach, but he remembered Euijoo saying that they only had one first time…
Nicholas wanted this to be perfect, so he waited patiently, letting Euijoo explore and worship his body.
“I love how strong you are here,” Euijoo moaned and smoothed a big hand over the abs that Nicholas had at the top of his stomach. “And I love how soft you are here.” He pinched gently at the light layer of fat that Nicholas had around his hips. “So beautiful, so perfect. You’ll carry our pups so well, right pretty boy?”
Nicholas mewled, feeling like he could cum just from the stimulation of his nipples paired with Euijoo’s seductive words. “I— Fuck, I will. I’ll keep them safe inside me, Alpha I promise.” Deep down he knew that wasn’t going to happen - He was on birth control, and Euijoo had already told him that they would go to the doctor after to make sure they didn’t have any accidents. But his omega was ruling his consciousness right now, and he craved the validation from Euijoo.
“I know you will,” Euijoo smiled fondly and kissed further down until he was spreading Nicholas’ legs and wrapping his arms under them.
He shoved his face into the scent glands located in Nicholas’ groin and he moaned, drooling a little on the plush flesh. Nicholas was slicking everywhere, soaking the bed underneath him, but Euijoo was focused on sucking bruises into the pale skin of his thighs.
Nicholas hissed in pain, but it quickly turned to pleasure when Euijoo lapped at the bruises with his tongue. He languidly stroked Nicholas’ cock with a loose fist and Nicholas cried out in response, chest heaving.
“I love how big you are, baby. So pretty when I watch you cum untouched.” Euijoo leaned up and sucked Nicholas’s cock into his mouth, making him jolt in surprise.
“Fuck! Oh, please Alpha!” Nicholas slipped his fingers into Euijoo’s hair and tugged gently.
Euijoo looked up at him as he sank down, dropping his tongue and opening his throat to accommodate Nicholas’ length. He moaned around it, sending vibrations through Nicholas who was so pathetically close to orgasm that he just whined.
Euijoo’s mouth felt so good; It was wet, warm, and deliciously tight around him. He worked Nicholas’ cock expertly, maintaining eye contact the entire time. His hands ran all over the omega’s legs while he sucked him off, and the light gagging noises were pushing Nicholas closer and closer to his peak.
Heat tightened in his core and he let out a garbled groan. “Alpha, you’re gonna make me cum,” he hissed through his teeth.
Euijoo popped off at that, a wicked smile on his face. “Sorry, sweetheart. Alpha wants you to cum on his cock, hm?” He dove between Nicholas’ legs and pushed them up without warning, and Nicholas bit his lip hard when Euijoo’s tongue laved over his hole.
It was similar to how the alpha ate him out at the beginning, but now it was practiced, more intimate than it had been before. Euijoo and Nicholas were more comfortable with each other’s bodies and minds, and it showed each time they had sex. They were already growing so much as a couple, battling miscommunications and difficult conversations. Nicholas’ eyes welled with tears, thinking back to how devastated he had been not even a week prior, when Euijoo had walked away from him.
He remembered the pain, how hollow and empty and distraught he felt when he thought Euijoo didn’t want him. A stray tear fell and Nicholas sniffled. He pushed against Euijoo’s warm mouth so he could remind himself that this was real.
Euijoo wanted him.
Euijoo loved him.
Euijoo was about to make love to Nicholas and bite into his scent gland, bonding them for life.
He would never have to feel that kind of pain ever again. One day they would retire from music, have a house of their own, and raise their pups to be good people. Their babies would have so many loving uncles, and maybe Nicholas and Euijoo would have some nieces and nephews too.
The thought of them having such a large pack made Nicholas’ chest ache painfully and he heaved, finally letting his sobs break free. Euijoo pulled away from him and was quick to crawl back up his body, a sweet look of concern on his pretty face.
“Hey, hey, baby. Shhh, I’m right here. What’s wrong, my love? Do you not want to mate tonight?” Euijoo cupped Nicholas cheeks and swiped his tears away with his thumbs, leaning in to lick at the corner of his mouth affectionately. “It’s okay if you don’t, we can wait until we’re further into our relationship.”
“No! No, god no, that’s— that’s not it.” Nicholas sniffled and looked up at Euijoo, who was blurry thanks to the tears in his eyes. “I was thinking about how big our pack is going to be in fifteen years. How much love we will be surrounded by.”
Euijoo sighed a long breath of relief. “Oh my sweet baby, you scared me. You’re so full of love and light, I’m so lucky to have you. The whole pack is lucky, and I’m so excited to see what happens in the future.” Euijoo smiled down at him with such fondness that Nicholas shuddered with another small sob. “I love you so much,” Euijoo whispered, kissing Nicholas’ temple.
“I love you too,” he chuckled weakly in response. “Sorry I ruined our mating session.”
“You didn’t ruin a thing,” Euijoo smiled. “Alpha’s gonna make love to you now, okay?”
Nicholas nodded, wiping away the last of his tears as he spread his legs further for the alpha and wrapped his legs around his waist. Nicholas took a steadying breath and focused on the thrumming of his heat. It wasn’t as bad now that they were at the end of their cycles, but Nicholas’ omega knew that this was different.
He keened when Euijoo pushed in, and his toes even curled behind the alpha’s back as he tried to absorb the pleasure. He was beginning to tighten up a little due to the end of his cycle, but Euijoo still stretched him out, groaning wantonly when he bottomed out.
They stayed there for a while, just breathing in each other's air while Nicholas adjusted. The bulge in his stomach was as apparent as always, but they both ignored it this time, focusing on drinking each other in.
“I’m so happy,” Nicholas whispered right as Euijoo closed the distance. He rocked into Nicholas as slowly as their lips danced together. It was unhurried, sweet and full of so much intimacy that Nicholas had to pull back for a breath of air.
Euijoo buried his face into Nicholas’ neck as he built his pace. His thrusts were slow and deep, stroking the edge of the fire that was burning in Nicholas’ core with each one. Nicholas bared his throat, knowing that Euijoo would bite him out of instinct when it was time.
He took each pulse of Euijoo’s cock with a soft moan, praising the alpha and telling him how much he loved him as Euijoo sank into his alpha’s headspace.
When he pulled his face out of Nicholas’ neck and stared down at him, Nicholas could only think that Euijoo was beautiful like this - With his pupils eclipsed and his mouth hung open, yet he never changed his pace. He never growled at Nicholas or moved the omega into a new position. Euijoo made love to Nicholas like it was the last thing he would ever get to do.
Nicholas was leaking onto his stomach, and his hole produced more slick than ever, making Euijoo groan a little when he heard the squelching.
“Omega,” Euijoo whimpered, wetting his lips subconsciously. “My omega.”
“Yes, Alpha.” Nicholas held Euijoo’s face and stroked his cheeks softly, grounding the alpha.
“I want you so bad.” Euijoo’s wrecked moan made Nicholas’ stomach tighten with pleasure. They were getting closer.
“Have me, baby. I’ll be by your side forever.”
“Forever,” Euijoo repeated with a dopey grin. “I’m yours too, Nicho. Can’t wait to smell like you, my sweet berry boy.”
Nicholas couldn’t fight his smile; Euijoo was so far gone, blissed out as he let his alpha guide him. His pace increased just a little and Nicholas groaned, shivering when he hit his prostate just right. Euijoo’s knot was swelling and Nicholas’ body responded instinctively, making him melt into the mattress, pliant for his alpha.
Euijoo nuzzled at his neck, inhaling as much of the saccharine scent as he could while he worked them closer and closer to their peak. Nicholas leaned up and reciprocated the action, letting Euijoo’s sandalwood scent fill his lungs and pool in his stomach - His gums were aching and tender, preparing to bite down on his alpha, and he was nearly choking on all the saliva.
“Baby,” Euijoo let out a broken moan. “Last chance, baby. Please, hhhng, baby please.”
Nicholas smiled against his neck and nipped at the scent gland, “I want this. I’m ready, Alpha.” He purred and licked a fat stripe along the sensitive area, moaning when Euijoo shivered.
“I’m gonna knot you, baby. Alpha’s gonna knot you, okay? Fill you up, mark you as mine.” Euijoo was huffing between words, and his hips stuttered, barely withdrawing from Nicholas’ hole like it would kill him to be more than an inch outside of the omega.
Nicholas’ back arched, feeling the way Euijoo’s knot swelled inside him this time, and his body latched around it. They moaned together, hot tears streaming down Nicholas’ face as Euijoo’s cock pulsed with need. The alpha was whining, gritting his teeth to withstand the intensity of the overstimulation, and Nicholas bared his throat.
Euijoo whimpered in relief and closed the distance, pressing the smallest of kisses to Nicholas’ scent gland before his teeth latched around it. Nicholas cried out, his sobs getting louder when searing pain erupted in his neck and sparked all the way down his body. His chest wracked with the force of it, the beautiful reality of being wanted so deeply that Euijoo would want to mark Nicholas as his. Tears spilled down his face as his flesh gave way beneath sharp teeth, and heat burned through him.
But as quickly as he felt the pain, it melted into an indescribable pleasure that washed over Nicholas in waves so intense that he couldn’t decipher where he ended, or where Euijoo began.
He finally came between them, his hole squeezing around Euijoo’s knot with a purpose. The alpha’s resounding groan was muffled against Nicholas’ neck, but he sounded satisfied as he released the bite and tossed his head back.
“Baby, come on.” Euijoo’s raspy voice pulled Nicholas’ consciousness to the surface of his pleasure and he blinked at Euijoo’s expression, noticing how pained he looked. “Please, I need you to bite me, it hurts so bad.”
Nicholas scrambled to pull Euijoo to his chest, wrapping his arms around the alpha’s neck. He threaded his fingers into Euijoo’s hair and pulled his head to the side, inhaling deeply at the gland before biting into it. Euijoo froze for a second, a similar cry to Nicholas’ falling from his lips until Nicholas’ teeth punctured through the surface and into the gland. Blood and fluid coated Nicholas’ lips, making his eyes roll back as another orgasm washed through him.
He clamped down a little harder on Euijoo’s fresh mate mark, and they both went pliant as the alpha began to spill his release deep into Nicholas. He could feel every pulse, every ounce of cum that filled him up, and Nicholas whined against the alpha’s neck.
“Nicho,” Euijoo whined. He sounded so relieved, satisfied by the completion of their mating bonds, and Nicholas hummed, gently releasing the bite with a big smile.
They kissed, sloppy and disgusting, but without a care in the world as dopamine crashed through them. Euijoo was still filling Nicholas, and they couldn’t help but pay attention to the bulge in his stomach now.
Nicholas flushed and giggled, knowing that they were going to have fun explaining the need for post-heat contraceptives. He didn’t worry about that for now, he had a mate to care for.
And to think that Nicholas had suffered so much just a few days ago… If only he could go back and tell himself what he knew now. Nicholas couldn’t help but wonder if the outcome would have been the same if he approached Euijoo with the knowledge he had now.
He smiled and pressed his face into Euijoo’s neck, inhaling the creamy, strawberry-sandalwood scent that wafted from his freshly bitten scent gland.
“Alpha,” Nicholas giggled. “Smell me.”
Euijoo instantly obeyed, cupping the side of Nicholas’ neck with a big hand while he nosed at his neck. “Mm, smells like me,” Euijoo pressed soft kisses around it and laved his tongue over the puncture wounds, making Nicholas shiver. “And it smells like you. Kinda like when you would spray yourself with that perfume. Perfect and sweet and all mine.”
Nicholas giggled, flushing at just how on the nose he had been for all this time. How could he have ever thought he was being nonchalant about his crush? He was literally walking around, dripping with their combined scents on his skin.
“I love you, Alpha.” Nicholas smiled up at Euijoo. He was sated, sore, and so incredibly happy. He couldn’t wait to see the pack and gossip about what it was like to mate with Euijoo and spend their cycles together. Honestly, he could barely even remember some of it, but he would never change it for the world.
🍓✨
Nicholas and Euijoo had spent the next day curled around each other, letting their mating bonds settle and providing plenty of aftercare to each other. They also cleaned the dorm as a welcome home gift for the pack who had been displaced for several days while they were fucking on every surface they could. Nicholas barely remembered moving out of the nest, but the fact that there were even droplets of cum on the washing machine meant that they had explored many different locations.
Euijoo had attempted to cook for Nicholas a few times, wanting to provide for his omega, but when he almost burned the entire place down while Nicholas was in the bath, it was quickly determined that he wasn’t allowed to touch the hot or sharp things without Nicholas’ guidance.
Nicholas didn’t mind though, he enjoyed cooking and being told his food was good. His love language for acts of service and quality time were being well received by Euijoo, and he was more than happy to take care of his mate.
They were just waking up for the day, stretching in each other’s arms and kissing languidly between soft words when they heard the pack approaching.
“The honeymoon is over, my love.” Euijoo sighed and got out of bed, pulling on a random pair of sweats before dragging Nicholas out of bed and dressing him too.
Nicholas was pouting, feeling a little sad that their bubble of intimacy was being popped, but he also ached to see his pack. His instincts were still running on overdrive, and Nicholas knew that curling up for a lazy movie day with his family would feel incredible after being separated for so long.
Euijoo opened the door for everyone, a proud smile on his face as the members piled in and began to fuss with him. Nicholas smiled fondly, moving to wrap an arm around his mate’s waist and greet everyone.
Taki was the first to point out the bandages covering their mate marks, and the entire pack burst into a mess of questions and annoying comments, but Harua was the only one that came straight to Nicholas.
“You’re mated!” He grinned, bunny teeth on display as he lightly scented Nicholas. “Oh, you look so happy, Nicho. Are you happy?”
Nicholas grinned down at his friend and wrapped his arms around the other omega, inhaling his cream puff scent and sighing happily. “I couldn’t be happier.” He glanced at Euijoo as he said it, winking when they immediately made eye contact.
Euijoo was so handsome, his eyes big and cheeks lifted happily, animatedly chatting with the pack about the events of the last week. His face was tinged a sweet pink, and he was absolutely glowing. Nicholas was sure he looked the same, sickeningly in love and happy to be mated to his best friend.
Eventually everyone settled down, piling onto the sofas so they could start their movie marathon. Nicholas and Euijoo sat a little off on their own, cuddling up and scenting each other subtly as the guys bickered about what to put on first.
Nicholas happened to catch Yudai’s gaze and he held it, watching as the eldest granted him a proud smile, and returning it when Yudai snuggled in with Fuma and Harua.
Now that his heat was over, Nicholas could rationalize the events that had taken place. The fact that Yudai pushed him to get checked out when Nicholas’ scent was slipping into something concerning, not letting him lie when he denied being in heat, and coming to care for him and Euijoo when they were stuck in a dangerous situation. Nicholas couldn’t ask for a better pack alpha, and it seemed like he wasn’t alone in that thought when Euijoo turned to look at Yudai too, giving him a small bow as thanks.
The pack spent the entire weekend wrapped up around each other, asking for mating stories and complaining about how tough work had been without the two of them.
Nicholas knew they eventually needed to come up with a story to tell the company, but he refused to think about that before he had to. He snuggled in with his mate, listening to the soft rain that pelted the window as the pack watched movie after movie, each member getting a chance to pick one.
He remembered his vision of the future and smiled softly to himself.
One day they would have pups running around, getting into things and getting in trouble. But Nicholas knew one thing for sure - He had picked the right alpha, and the right pack to experience his life with, and fuck, he really couldn’t be any happier.
