A Service to the King ch. 15 (A SidLink Omegaverse Story)

Chapter 15: Interesting Life

Zelda ran a hand over Link's back as he sat next to her. They were in the headquarters near the castle, Purah staring at the two of them.

“Everything is just so intersting about the two of you,” she mused, lifting Link's hand and taking his pulse. Link didn't say a word. He felt terrible.

The illness was starting to kick in. He had a fever and felt like he was freezing. The blanket that sat tight around his shoulders was barely doing anything.

Heavy bags were under his eyes. He hated feeling like this. He couldn't wait till Sidon got there. Then he would be able to feel better.

“Can't say we really want it to,” Zelda said with a sigh, helping Link lay down on the bed, glad that the blonde didn't fight him.

“Well you princess. You had become a majestic beast and are still feeling lingerings within you despite being saved from the impossible,” Purah praised though Zelda flushed and looked away from her friend. She was honestly embarassed about it.

But it had to be done. There was no other way to save the world.

“Can we not talk about this?” she sighed softly.

“And you,” Purah said, poking Link in the forehead which earned a small grunt of disapproval. “Got yourself mated and are no where near him.”

It was his turn to feel embarassed by it. He still couldn't believe it happened. He liked the thought of being his mate but he hated how things felt.

There wasn't a way that he could be with him. He was the king and Link was just a man...though he should be giving himself more credit.

He was the champion that had saved the kingdom twice.

“Now Purah you promised to be sworn to secrecy about who the one who mated was, right?” she said with a frown. They still hadn't told her yet but from the size of the bite she could pretty much guess what species it was at least.

One way or another if she kept at it she would be able to figure it out.

“Yes princess,” she said. “I promise not to tell a soul.”

Link let out a sigh and buried himself further into the blankets, hoping to sleep and just get some relief for a little while.

If they didn't have him soon he would very well end up losing his life. He couldn't put the blame on Sidon for that.

Zelda had explained that she had more or less threatened the king to get there. Whether or not he actually showed up was a different story.

He wanted him to show up. Not just to save him but to show that he still cared for him. Sure they had expressed their love, physically and not, but there was something different about hearing the words and then being with someone.

His dark part of his mind just told him that he was just saying those things to him to keep him silent or to mate.

But Sidon wasn't like that.

He was a man true to his word and he wasn't the type to even think about just using Link for that sort of stuff. He did legitimately care for him.

His eyes started to grow heavy, his head poking out a bit to get some air.

“Rest Link,” Zelda urged him. “I'll wake you up when he gets here.”

Link let out a small noise and he was falling asleep a few moments later. Zelda moved some hair from his face and rest a damp cloth on his forehead.

“I hope he comes,” Zelda mumbled to Purah who looked down at them worriedly. “If he doesn't...I don't think Link will make it.”

Sidon was used to the fanfare and the guards following after him. He was used to others acknowledging him and making a big deal out of him being there. He didn't quite like it honestly so this change was nice.

Just showing up on his own, looking to be in a bit of a panic and having people even surprised to see him.

He gave small hellos and nods of his head as he made his way past others. There were mumblings of why he had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Secret business of course.

At Purah's lab he knocked on the door and then entered, poking his head inside as he ducked down into the small Hylian door.

“I'm here,” He said, breathing heavily and stepped inside. He closed the door and the first one he saw was Purah as she mixed some things together in some viles, only pausing as she stared at the king in shock.

“Thank goodness,” came Zelda's voice. Sidon glanced to the side of the room. The princess sat on the edge of a bed, pale and looking panicked herself. She rose to her feet, coming closer and grabbed his arm.

“Please,” She begged. “Sit with him. Being near you will make the progession stop.”

“Progression?” he asked. But he knew. He knew all too well.

He followed after the princess to the bed, ducking his head as to not knock anything over. He did bump something however, nearly knocking it over.

“You may be king but don't be a klutz,” Purah huffed at the man but he couldn't be bothered as he looked down at the bed.

His hand came to his mouth in shock as he looked down at the man that he had fallen in love with. His state had gone down the last time he saw him.

He laid on the bed, breathing heavily, sweat on him, his skin flushed, and a cloth resting on his forehead to try to stop the fever.

“How has he gotten this bad?” Sidon asked. “It hasn't been that long since...” His eyes flicked to Purah. Zelda waved her hand away at that.

“She knows and she won't speak of it. Quickly, please sit and hold him. Your scent will help the illness from progessing.”

Sidon did as he was told, gently lifting Link out of the blankets and sat down on the small bed, resting Link in his lap against his chest.

Link shivered from the lack of the blanket, coughing softly in his sleep.

“Why won't he wake?” Sidon asked worried after a few minutes.

Zelda paced next to the bed, biting her lip as she looked down at her friend, panic written all over her face.

“Link....Link please wake up,” Sidon said, tears collecting in his eyes. What did he do? He should have never bitten Link...even if he had been doing it through his sage.

“Purah,” Zelda said in worry. The girl was already at their side and looking at Link. She moved his shirt, looking at the blue mark on his shoulder and then up at the king.

“You didn't do this like this,” she said gesturing to him.

“Well no. I haven't been able to be with him. I hadn't even known his location,” Sidon explained. “We had been...together through a shadow of myself.”

“And there it is,” she said, pulling something out of her pouch on her hip. “He isn't bonded to you as you are now.”

“How?” Sidon asked.

“Well like you said. You had given him the mark while using the shadow of yourself,” she stated to him. “So he is bonded to the shadow of yourself.”

Sidon's eyes widened and he swallowed.

“We need to wake him to get him to summon his shadow,” Zelda said. “But how?”

“With this,” she said, waving some smeling salts under Link's nose. The hero inhaled and then coughed hard, his blue eyes opening up.

“What the heck is that?” he grunted, coughing hard and then flushed as he looked up at the king as he held him so closely. “Sidon...”

He felt odd...he was happy to see him but this sort of affection he had never shown in front of anyone else. Perhaps because it wasn't allowed.

“I'm here,” Sidon said, petting back his hair. “You should feel better soon.”

Link nodded his head and closed his eyes, pressing his face into his chest again to try to inhale his scent and get his body to calm down.

“Link, we have a hunch,” Zelda said but Purah chimed in quickly after.

“It's not a hunch. It has to be the solution,” Purah said fimrly. “Link, you must summon the shadow of Sidon to you.”

“But why?” Link asked as he lifted his head. “Sidon is right here.”

But even he had to admit that this wasn't working at all. He still felt terrible and at risk of going down further and further.

He didn't know what else to do and he was out of ideas. He just wanted to feel better....and possibly not die.

“Fine...” he mumbled.

He let out a sigh and he flicked his hand out on towards the bed. The shadow of Sidon appeared in front of them, sitting in a similar positon as Sidon.

“Sweet Hylia....” Sidon mumbled as he looked at it. He never really had the chance to look at his shade. It was amazing. It looked just like him, but blue and with a hollow expression.

He felt that pull to see throug his eyes but he felt that would just freak him out even more than he already was.

“Alright, now wha-Link?” Sidon asked.

The hylian let out a chirp and sqiurmed out of his arms, right into the arms of the shade. It pulled him against his chest and held him close. Link let out a chirp again and relaxed. Sidon looked at the scene a little sad. Why was he feeling jealousy of his own shade? It was literally him.

And yet he was upset that he wasn't the one holding Link making him feel better.

“Hmm...” Purah said as she scribbled in her notes, watching as Link relaxed and started to drift off to sleep again.

“The color is already coming back to his face,” Zelda said softly, looking to Sidon in worry who sat across watching the scene unfold before him.

“I believe I found out what happened,” Purah said and looked at the king with a small frown on her face. He paled a bit himself, finally pulled his eyes away from Link.

“What is it?” Sidon asked but he had a hunch.

“Given that you had marked him while in there,” she said pointing to the shade. “He's bonded to you, but only through your shade. Not you.”

“But that is me,” Sidon said with a scowl. “Rightfully Link should be my omega. I marked him.”

“Sidon,” Zelda tried but the angry alpha growled a bit. She let out a heavy sigh.

“There is a fine line,” Purah said. “In a way it is. But he is drawn to this now, not you. And he can't always have this out in his life to keep himself from beind sick.”

“What are you saying?” Sidon asked, his sharp teeth clenched.

“It's either you break the bond and Link risks losing his life,” Purah explained as she listed the options on her fingers. “Or you do nothing.”

“I have to do something,” Sidon snapped.

“The last option is to bite over the mark yourself....breaking your mating with Queen Yona,” Zelda finally finished.
