#it's about showing off for the omega... who happens to be Law

[goddessofroyalty]

One Piece Supernova trio Omegaverse idea my brain is milling over instead of letting me sleep:

Alpha!Kid challenging/goading Beta!Luffy in order to 'impress' the unmated Omega!Law, possibly not even wanting to attract Law as a mate just dumb hindbrain posturing kind of stuff.

Luffy not caring about designations or romantic/sexual relationships but fully responding to the challenges/goads because he's dumb and competitive like that.

Law being completely aware of the actual intent behind Kid's challenges/goads but now Luffy's turned it into a 'who's the better captain' thing he's also responding to them in a competitive way.

[antiwhores]

(Dubcon at first)

Alpha!Bakugou in rut whispering “‘M sorry” to you, the Omega who wants nothing to do with him, as he dry humps you from behind.

He knows its wrong but he just cant stop his hips from rutting into your ass. He’s always been attracted to you, beyond normally. That’s probably why he bullied you in middle school. He just couldn’t handle the fact that he’d go crazy over your scent.

That had been years ago but he still thought about you.

He saw you at a coffee shop one day and immediately recognized your smell. It was almost like he was destined to be with you again.

You, however, were less than pleased. As soon as you made eye contact with him he winced at how your scent changed. It went from a calm, delicious scent to a scared sour.

You practically ran out of the door.

He couldn’t let you get away. He had been thinking about you since the day he graduated middle school. No way was he about to loose this opportunity to rekindle the relationship with HIS omega… well, soon to be his.

“Wait y/n!”

The sound of your name caught you so off guard you tripped on your own feet into the grass. He never said your name, it was always a mean nickname. You hadn’t even thought that he knew it.

You started to shake, “Leave me alone!”

He put his hands up beside his head, “I’m not gonna hurt you. I just wanted to talk.”

As you sat there, fisting the grass, he apologized. He told you about how he wanted to show you that he had changed. He wanted to be friends.

But you wouldn’t have any of that. Even though it was middle school, it was still traumatizing to this day.

You got up, brushing off the grass as you told him that you could never be friends. You told him off for everything that he did to you. He stood there and took it.

After that day, you started to see actual effort from him. Somehow, he found out your address. It was probably in some documents that can be accessed by pro hero’s.

He started sending flowers to your house. Food during lunch either at home or at work. He would show up randomly at different times to talk to you. He would even pay for your groceries. He dropped them off at your door before ringing the doorbell and walking away.

At first, you didn’t trust it at all. No way was the man that bullied you trying to court you into befriending him. But after a while your guard started to come down.

You would engage in conversation the tiniest bit instead of sitting in silence with him when he’d come sit at any table he found you at. You would even look him in the eyes when he spoke.

Everything was going well until his rut.

He was supposed to go home immediately after he felt the first heat wave surge through his body. Unfortunately, a villain decided to attack on his way back. And it also just so happens that you were on the scene.

He almost killed the villain for even being around you. The rut wasn’t letting him think clearly. All he could think was “protect mine.” He only stopped hitting the poor dude when you yelled his name.

He didn’t even realize the guy had passed out.

Bakugou looked sickly. His face red, sweaty and strained. He was breathing so heavily he was getting light headed. You could tell something was wrong. But you were ignorant to the fact it was his rut. Pro hero’s were required by law to use scent blockers. You couldn’t even smell his rut.

You took him to your house to help him since it wasn’t too far away.

As soon as he entered, his semi-hard cock went fully rock hard. He was trying to control himself on the way here. He barely managed to. But being surrounded by your scent, he couldn’t take it anymore.

He snatched off his scent blockers and in a quick movement he had you pinned against the wall.

He was humping you, fully clothed, before he even comprehended that he moved.

He wanted to cry, it hurt so bad. This small bit of relief felt heavenly.

“Bakugou? What are you-“

You had to shut your mouth when a moan came out of his. You knew that if you spoke any longer you’d have let out one of your own.

“‘M sorry, I cant-“

He groaned at a particularly hard jerk of his hips against your ass.

“‘M sorry…”

As he humped you from behind, your knees weakened. He was the only one holding you up. You were falling into a heat of your own from his scent.

“Fuck, ‘m sorry. Im ruining-“

He couldn’t even speak in full sentences without moaning into your neck.

“‘M almost done… Just- fuck… let me…”

He started to grind against you harder and faster. You couldn’t breathe, all you could inhale was him. Your mind went foggy, you could hear your own moans mixing with his. Even without the stimulation you felt so fucking good.

He stopped grinding against you as he came. He pushed himself hard against your heated body as he dug his nails into your hips.

His orgasm was strong. Leg shaking, eyes rolling back strong. He came ropes in his pants before he slumped against you.

You both fell to the ground, heavily breathing.

His mind temporarily cleared enough to know that he fucked up.

He was trying to cook up a worthy apology before he was interrupted by your voice.

You reached for his belt as you spoke,

“Take it off.”

 Finding The Pack 

 Pairing: Plus Size!Named Reader x BTS

Warnings: Brief Mentions of Omega Abuse (not by BTS), Mentions of Kidnapping, and Eventual Smut. 

Themes: Omegaverse, Fantasy, Supernatural, Reverse Harem, 

Ratings: 18+  

Summary:  On the night before she is set to marry the abusive Dorian Redfern, Lilith takes matters into her own hands and escapes. While life without a pack is dangerous, she knows she’s better off alone. At least, that is until she meets seven males, who quickly show her not only her worth but how beautiful life can be. She can only hope now that they are enough to keep her old life from catching up to her.

Chapter One

Prologue: 

  “Jin darling be careful.” Jisoo Kim laughs as she carefully pulls her three-year-old little boy away from the crib that holds her newest addition to the home-run daycare. Jin let out a whine of protest, little hands gripping the side of the crib as he freed himself, his face pressed against it. 

  “Gotta keep safe!” He cries, hazel eyes never leaving the slumbering baby. As a beta, his mother immediately knows what is happening and can’t help the grin that crosses her face. She will need to befriend the older couple that brought the pup in, if only because she will be damned if she takes away her son’s mate. Fears of him hurting the baby vanish with this newfound information and she smiles as she heads back to make lunch. Unaware that the text she sends along the way to the mother, a picture with the caption “It looks like we will be quite close” will cause the life she imagines for her son to vanish. 

  When the little girl is picked up that night, she is never returned and all of Jisoo Kim’s desperate attempts of contact go unanswered. When she finally goes to the address they had given her, she finds that oddly enough the family that just moved in moved out just as quickly. She will never be able to forget the look of pain in her youngest eyes or shake the feeling that something is very wrong. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

  As an Alpha, Eliza Min hates being told what to do, especially by a Beta. However, when the couple arrives, begging for her help to watch their daughter, the same daughter that her youngest has been watching like a hawk from the safety of their backyard, she doesn’t decline. Even when the woman all but snarls her demand to keep any male child away from her daughter. Eliza Min finds the wording of the demand odd, especially on the insistence of it only being a male child. Odd enough she doesn’t stop Yoongi when he sits down and begins to play with the now almost one-year-old. 

  It’s because of her stubborn nature and the fact that she just does not like these people that she keeps the fact that Yoongi plays daily with the daughter for a year and a half. The truth only being discovered when the precious little thing that is that baby girl tells her father with so much excitement that she just can't wait to play with her boyfriend Yoongi. 

  The odd couple move in the middle of the night, leaving Eliza furious and her son heartbroken, demanding to know why they would take his little flower away from him. Eliza attempts to get the law involved but really, there isn’t a law stating that parents can’t be strange. As the years go on, Eliza can’t forget about the little girl and finds herself worrying that maybe, just maybe, her wolf is right and the strange marks were never just accidents. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  

    Sana Jung meets the family at a park. Her children, Hoseok and his twin Ryoko, are playing happily in the sandbox when a shy little girl approaches and asks to play. At once, Hoseok, her little Alpha in training, agrees and hands her most of his snack as they play. Insisting that she eat. Sana watches the three with a proud, motherly smile, a smile that turns sour at the look of fury on the other woman’s face as she drags her screaming child away. Her hissed words ringing in Sana’s ears. “Didn’t we tell you to stay away from boys?” 

  That night over dinner, she tells her Alpha’s everything, begging for them to do something. For the next three weeks her alpha’s look for the strange family. Finally coming back with the news Sana didn’t want to hear. They moved and no, they didn’t leave a new address. They don’t stop looking though, if only because of the way Hoseok had responded to the little girl's cries of distress, his first true snarl rumbling through his chest in a way that told Sana all she needed to know. Her son’s luna had just been ripped away and she would be damned if she allows that to continue. 

~~~~~~~~ 

   Crystal Kim was a true alpha, a pack leader among alphas. She was a force to be messed with. This is why, when the new couple across the street had a little girl who looked exactly as her friend Sana had described, she marched over there and introduced herself. As a couple of betas, neither could close the door on her, the wolves reacting to her despite not being a member of her pack. They couldn’t stop her from kneeling and speaking softly to their daughter, nor could they stop her from letting the little girl go and play with her Namjoon. She could tell both hated it, especially when Namjoon began presenting the same signs, the same protective displays an alpha has over their mate.  

  It didn’t come as a surprise to find that they had once again fled in the middle of the night. But it gave her all the information she needed to know. Something was up with the seemingly kind older couple and she would be damned if she didn’t figure out what was going on. 

  ~~~~~~ 

   SangHee Jeon had been watching her neighbour's children, Taehung and Jimin, along with her own little Jungkook when she met the couple. They were exhausted and cranky and left the girl on her doorstep with a list of very strict instructions. She had done her best to keep the little girl away from the three boys, but it was hard. The three boys did not want to be kept away from the girl and took it upon themselves to plot ways to go around her. She spent the better of her afternoon trying to explain to the three boys that it was not her insisting they kept away from the girl, but her parents and begged them to just listen. They would agree, for all of twenty minutes before she made some sound that had them gathered together in the corner whispering as they plotted a new way to get to her. 

  In the end, Sanghee had carefully asked if maybe next time they just allow the children to play together, only to be met with a snarled curse of “Fuck off” and “She’s a little slut, it's for their own good, not her’s.” She had bristled at the words and decided that the next time they showed up, she wouldn’t allow them to take the girl back. Only they never did come back and Sanghee was left with the itch that maybe she never should have allowed them to take her after that night. 

~~~~~~~~~~ 

  When Lilith turned sixteen she was hit with an ache in her soul. An ache that left her feeling empty, as if something was missing. She didn’t know what and didn’t dare try and broach the subject with her parents. They hated, HATED when she asked questions. Even something as simple as “What is for dinner” was met with a hard slap across the face and a cold reminder to not ask questions. 

  She spent most of her time since her sixteenth birthday locked away in the basement, kept hidden from everyone outside of her pack or rather her parent's pack. Their Alpha, a cold man named Carter, had told her that he knew the truth and wouldn’t accept a whore into his pack. So any hope she had of finding freedom was torn away by his cold words. Still, sometimes, in the dead of night, she remembered the comforting touch of a memory, of a boy she couldn’t quite remember and the gentle hands that had made her feel safe. 

   She had no idea that on her twentieth-ninth birthday, everything would change.

Part 5 (PART 4) (Part 6) Lore Page

You walked into the briefing room, your eyes flicking around the room, trying to find someone who didn’t make you feel so uncomfortable, as you flicked your eyes around the room, they landed on a particular Captain, one you growled and snapped at. Your eyes widened before you forced them to move on, finding Johnny or Sargent as he asked you to call him, your eyes moved up and down him assessing him, he was sitting beside the Captain, Sargent smiled and nodded to you before he turned his head to the Captain, you gulp before your gaze moved to a tall male that leaned on a chair a skull mask covering his face, you flicked your eyes over him. He had his sleeves rolled up showing off tattoos, one that had pretty thin lines that created an intricate symbol or crest on his arm, you tilted his head trying to figure out if it was the mark of his blood pack or his moon pack, the lines on your thigh burned in that familiar way almost as if calling out to those same markings on the Skull Alphas arms, your blood markings, making you feel the same kind of itching you felt coming from your pheromone patch. “Newbie, you mind moving? Or are me and Alejandro going to strain our ears for the briefing?” Gaz asked, you jumped a little at the sound of his voice. “Shit, sorry” You mumble, moving out the way of the door, Alejandro chuckled lightly, as he waved you over to sit beside him and Gaz, they sat down on one side of the large long oak table. You flick your eyes around the room, one last time before you move to sit beside Gaz and Alejandro, you settle a little your hands tucked under your knees, needing to put your hands somewhere they aren’t visible, and where they could shake in peace you hated for Alphas to see Omegas as weak, you remember what it was like before the laws where put in place, the world before Omegas became their person. There was nothing but silence and stares, all pointed at you as you sat looking around the room. A cough broke the silence and staring, all eyes including yours shifted the source of the noise. “Alright, This is technically a briefing, more of an introduction of our newest member,” The Captain said. “I’m Captain John Price,” He says, pointing to himself. “I’m the one you snapped, growled and swatted at by the way, and I lead the 141 task force” You nod as your face flushes with embarrassment, not liking that you had made a fool out of yourself already by getting into a fight and then swatting at your Commanding officer. John turned to the Skull mask on the far side of Johnny. “That over there is Ghost or Riley as we call him, he’s my Lieutenant, he doesn’t talk much, He was supposed to be the one showing you around, but you know a few things happened before he could” you pursed your lips together not liking being called out for getting into a fight that wasn’t even your fault, but you persevered, your eyes moving to Ghost who gave you a knowing look and a nod, you could have sworn you saw his eyes light up with a smile but who are you to assume that about someone who doesn’t talk much. John turned to Johnny who stood up, “You know me already, but I’m Johnny also known as Sargent” He said as he pointed to himself  “Don’t mind them, they are just grumpy from having to fill out paperwork already, mind you put that little Alpha through the wringer earlier” He says sounding impressed before he looked to Gaz.

“Hey, you already know me and Alejandro, but what is it about this fight, it’s all the guys can talk about that an omega sent an Alpha to the ICU” Gaz said, you turned your head, now feeling bashful, unsure how to feel being put on the spot. Captain stands quickly, “Alright if you don’t mind I’ll introduce you real quick and then you can get into specifics about yourself and the fight,” He says, you nod glad that you don’t have to introduce yourself to the large group of Alphas. “This is Venom, yes it is a code name as I have been explicitly told not to give away their real name, they are from the MI5 base in Aberdeen, and they worked in the Bioengineering team, they orgainally came to the NBOC” Captain says, his eyes bouncing from each of his friends, he pauses before he asks “Any questions?” One hand raises you turn your head to find Gaz doing it. Captain nods his head, “Hit me with it”. “NBOC?” Gaz asks, his head tilted, in the same fashion a Border Collie would, his eyes filled with intelligence as he was probably trying to figure out what the acronym meant, but the answer didn’t come from Captain it came from Ghost. “Naval Black Out Core, Think Secret Service, MI5, MI6, Seals, NBOC are the shadow operation, they destroy threats before we know about them, they take out modern-day Hitlers without anyone knowing, kind of think of them as Agents from the Movies Kingsman, fast, deadly and silent,” He says, hardly looking up from the centre of the table.

Bro Daddy was such a cheerful movie to watch, was curious to see what Prithvi would do teaming up with Mohanlal again for his second movie as a director after their success together with Lucifer and Prithvi really didn’t disappoint, he really has an unique style as a director, I think he was trying to proof himself and see if he could do a good rom-com and I think he definitely could! This movie was an enjoyable ride from start to finish. Prithvi said in an interview that he did this movie during pandemic and thinking about a light hearted movie to watch on streaming services with family because the time was bleak and want to bring something to laugh together with and it was clear that he also have so much fun himself directing the movie, love seeing his adorable laugh between takes. What this man couldn’t do?? That’s the real question now.

Even though the movie was so colorful and there were so many scenes to gif lol but for me the most fun part was watching the BTS (pardon the quality because they only gave that tiny footage beside the rolling credits) because when Prithvi was directing he acted and became like every character in his movie 😂

1. Acting like a cool capable savvy tech dude

2. Directing an attitude for a granny 😂

3. Became an eccentric wedding organizer lol

4. How to act cute toward your mother in law

5. And of course directing the Mohanlal, I adore all these BTS footage because Mohanlal look like he clearly adore Prithvi. These are like two strikes successful good movies they made together

No wonder Prithvi could emote so easily when he became the actor himself, he could just put his director mind and thought about what a director would want to see in this or that kind of situation from him.

And my favorite from the bts is pregnant prithviraj 😂 when he’s directing the morning sickness because well…this BTS inspired the whole new Salaar AU for me 😂🤣 (forgive me because whatever movie I watched of Prithviraj I will keep trying to connect it to Salaar somehow, so watch out for more crossover 😂)

Salaar omega verse AU headcanon below (thanks to this bro daddy BTS) 🤣 👇👇🐺🐮

Obviously it’s an mpreg. So proceed if you’re okay with it.

Salaar is so easy to see as an omegaverse because Deva's traits are inherently similar to all the feral possessive alpha traits (with never let anyone to touch Varadha or he will lost his cool and he basically from a wolf tribe like???? That’s an alpha right there) and Varadha is the omega that everyone is crazy about (seriously what’s up with everyone trying to take Varadha’s honor and touching him in humiliating and inappropriate way hands off!)

So, what if Varadha after Deva left Khansaar started showing symptoms making Baachi (okay we gonna pretend he’s alive in this AU) all confused what happened to his brother.

Deva didn't know that Varadha was pregnant with his child and it was Varadha who banished him anyway, Actually even Varadha himself didn't know that he was pregnant he only figured it out after 3 months of Deva's departure.

I will imagine that it’s the same with Prithvi character in bro daddy where he is having a hard time trying to tell the news to his parents but in Salaar AU he keeps making up excuses to Baachi about his morning sickness like it was because of the food stomach flu and everything until he runs out of excuses and Baachi figured it out eventually when his stomach started showing and Varadha just didn’t make a public appearance much anymore.

So Imagine 7 years later Deva broke the seal only to be greeted at Khansaar gate by a 7 years old kid that look like him.

It is hilarious but also sad at the same time moment like “why the hell this kid looks like me , where is his parents”

Varadha was searching for the brat (attitude close to a maniac that one he used to love) that’s been causing havoc all throughout the palace, his kid was so close of getting out of the big gate himself because he was spying on the gate to open ready to run away.

The reason why he run because he got into an argument that morning with Varadha who didn’t tell him about his mother. Varadha was like “you didn’t have a mother, I carried you myself” and his son was like “then where’s my father???? What’s his name” and Varadha refused to answer so his kid set out his heart and packed a tiny backpack throwing his clothes inside ready to explore the world searching for his dad 😂

That he immediately met at the gate! what’s the odd and he looked up at Deva, strong and big Deva full of charisma with sun rays illuminating his figure like “are you my dad?” Just as Varadha arrived behind them with his entourage.

Bilal that arrived behind Deva a moment later also didn’t know that Varadha was pregnant! He left with Deva but it’s so easy for him to put the two pictures together because well the brat look like the splitting image of deva and varadha. They didn’t need DNA test for that to know who his fathers are 😂

Varadha calling his son that he named Raju (pfft) to quickly come to his side and scold him because why would he bother a stranger like that.

Deva is like “is he?–” (Mine) he couldn’t say the word because what if he’s not? 😭😭

Deva didn’t know which one is worse, not knowing you fathered a child and not be there for him for 7 full years or Varadha already taking a queen and got married and have a son now. Both equally devastating. That’s when Baachi rushed toward him to punch Deva on his face and Deva got his answer.

Imagine if it was the last hate sex they have before the big separation that made Varadha got 🫃, I mean they start rawing the moment Deva enter Khansaar (cough the moment where Vishnu was throwing that firework at Varadha’s doorstep and Deva was waking up behind Varadha 👀 omega verse and all I imagined Deva’s presence might’ve triggered an early heat for Varadha) but since Varadha never showed any symptoms when he was around in Khansaar for a whole year so Deva made a quick calculation that the child was indeed conceived when they were tearing the house apart before they went their separate ways. 😞

Anyway that’s all I got from now lol feel free if you want to elaborate it more or continue this headcanon . I love my imaginary 7 years old boy, Raju, already.

[malk1ns]

Asdhfkl just read your latest fic and I'm obsessed. It's just in this side of fucked up- the world just accepts that Sid fought other alphas and stole Geno so now he gets to keep him??

But also, so delicious and hot. And that line about Geno punching out the guy who gets too close on the ice and the player wonders why Sid didn't have to go to the emergency dentist was GENIUS. a way to give Geno a little autonomy.

I don't know what happened when Sid was backed out but Geno chose to not fight too hard against him and I love it

ok anon i thiiiiink you sent me both of these, if this was two people i apologize!

i am so glad you enjoyed my entry for today's kinkuary prompt. i've had this in my head basically since that world juniors tournament and it was great to have an excuse to make myself finish it!!

some director's notes for you—

stealing talented omegas via claim by combat (and subsequently a bond) used to be much more common across pro sports. pretty much every league's bylaws has language around how claims are handled—contract and payment responsibilities, roster impacts, concessions that need to be made for the bonded pair before they're brought back into game play, etc. it's pretty archaic now and hasn't been done anywhere in decades, but just like with many old laws, it's more trouble than it's worth to get them off the books, so technically teams are still bound by it. know that the flyers fought hard against this one, they threw all their lawyers at it to try and get geno's rights back, but the bylaws are the bylaws so they're just stuck. teehee.

yes, there was a part of geno that let sid take him. after the combat portion, the alpha still has to manage to wrangle their omega. now, geno is 18 and sid is 35 and much broader and stronger, but as evidenced by geno smacking someone in the face with his stick he's capable of sticking up for himself when needed. if he really didn't want to be claimed, probably he wouldn't have been—or they both would have been a LOT more bloodied up afterwards. but, as he said, sid was his favorite.

on the ice, sid brushed off the players who tried to come and keep him away from geno pretty easily. they were all teenagers after all. the coaching staff getting involved was when things got a little dicier, and that's when he got punched in the face and bled all down over his eye, but an alpha who's at that level of hormonally-induced blackout rage is hard to take down, so eventually he beat them all off to get to geno. geno was scared shitless, a little turned on, and amazed that sidney crosby was here for him, little zhenya malkin from a podunk nothing town in central russia. it was maybe less exciting and grandly romantic for him after the walk back to sid's house, and fending sid off once they got inside was an exhausting horror show, but he made it. sid wouldn't let geno try to take care of his wounds, btw, so he gets another scar out of this. yay!!!!!

Audio Drama Sunday - 6th August ✨

Hello, August, and happy #AudioDramaSunday! My ears have been well looked after this week! 

SPOILERS!!

🌲@hellofromthehallowoods (128) My toxic trait is that I am an absolute SUCKER for a story with mother-child conflict. Percy’s life is (was?) so horrific on so many levels, if anyone deserves a Dogsmell cuddle, it’s Percy. Also, can we talk about how the line ‘Diggory, for all their love, was one more obsession unto destruction’ just opened up my chest like a clamshell to better stab me in the heart? I feel like Zelda needs to go on some kind of watch, she’s a law unto herself and I worry what will happen when her luck and tenacity reach their limit!! I love that Walt’s house is still being used as a sanctuary for those who need it.

It’s one thing to haunt the narrative, it’s another to leave a legacy of kindness which blooms eternally. 🖤🗡

🧛‍♂️ A GREAT week of @re-dracula!! Updates from Mina are a tonic for the soul, and updates from the Demeter are . . . well, excellent in their own way. Alasdair Stuart has been amazing in this role! I listened to the sea shanty while cycling in the rain and it created such a mood. Yes, I was being splashed by puddle water, but, hey, at least I wasn’t on the Demeter! 

🧬 Regina Prime (5) Another stunning episode of Regina Prime has left me with even more questions than answers! We’ve been given a glimpse of the vitriol Omega harbours for Regina Prime and some idea of what she’ll do to achieve her goal. It’s . . . intense. 

 💫 Wolf 359 (33-37) GOD this show!!! I was initially a little sceptical over why this show was still so many people’s favourite, even years after it was released, but I totally understand. These characters are perfectly flawed and I’m hooked on all the mysteries! Also - the EIFFEL LORE. I need to know! What?! What happened?!!?

🎩 @ethicstownpod (6) Nothing is going well in Ethics . . . this podcast really worms into my brain and makes me think about it all day. I’m also camp ‘try to fix this mess in case it makes it makes it better for someone somewhere’. Come on, January, there are some brains in jars that need you to work it out!! 

🥾@doyoucopypod (4) Horror tropes! Come and get your horror tropes!! I felt a little evil, but this ep made me grin so much. Every time they tried something new to help leave the Dead Zone, it just so obviously wasn’t going to work! Besties, put that map away, you don’t even know how to read it!! 

I have a week off next week and I can’t wait to fill it with lots of listening! There’s new @malevolentcast to enjoy, we’re out of the @nightvaleradio hiatus, and I still need to find out what the deal is with Angela in Tiny Terrors! Hope everyone has a lovely weekend!

The medium and the nameless ghouls

Case file 007-2 Secondo file Lawyering up

Sara begins her training as a Sibling before she becomes Lucia’s replacement. As the due date approaches, the Clergy begins to shut out the director under the orders of Sister Imperator. Can Alexander use the knowledge of Law to help bring balance to the Clergy?

Markus takes out his spare sunglasses and gives them to Sara. “Sara, are you okay?”

Sara was too dazed to see them. “My eyes… feel like they’re on fire… and my head feels funny...” She holds her head and collapses on Omega.

Copia puts his back on and lets her fall on top of him. “I’m going to give a piggyback ride to the mansion. Put the glasses on her. We can’t let her see the sunlight in this stage.” Markus places the sunglasses over her eyes. Copia lifts her up and walks away from the crypt.

Jackson runs over to Copia. “What do mean by in this stage?”

“She can’t look into the sun or be around sunlight for the next few weeks. She will go blind and will go crazy. It happened to a good few…” Copia trips on a broken tombstone and nearly drops Sara. He manages to stop himself from falling. “I’m okay. We’re good. I’m not like Terzo.”

“Hey!” Terzo felt offended. “That is not true!”

Omega smirks. “You fell twice into the crowd. Not to mention the hole in the middle of the stage.”

Terzo points to Omega. “Don’t you dare, Omega!”

“Oh, and don’t forget about the big ball incident.” Omega laughs out.

“Omega! You’re sleeping on the couch tonight!” Terzo soon tripped and fell down. His face landed on the tombstone. He rolls over and swears in Italian.

Everyone laughs out. Omega covers his face in embarrassment. “Come here, my love.” Omega picks up Terzo and carries him. “Let’s go. I’ll patch you up when we get home.”

When they got to the mansion. They see Alexander on the phone. He was looking at some documents noticing the difference in signatures.

Copia asks. “Is everything alright?”

Alexander looks up at Copia. “Oh! Um, do you know who handles the documents in the clergy?” He notices Sara with the Sunglasses on. “What happened to my daughter?” He sternly spoke.

“She received the blessing from the Oracle. She’s going to be okay.” Copia told Alexander. He sets her down on the couch.

Markus, Sergeant Jackson, and Copia walk over to Alexander.

Markus looks at the documents. “This is impossible.”

Copia looks at the Papa IV signature. “I don’t see anything wrong.”

“Excuse me,” Jackson gets a pen and paper. “How do you sign your signature?”

“Huh?” Copia tilts his head.

Jackson sighs. “You’re autograph. We need it.”

“Oh!” Copia takes the pen and writes PE IV on the paper. “Here you go.”

Jackson takes the paper. “Thank you. Can you please take Sara upstairs?”

“Oakie-dokie!” He helps Sara to Primo’s bedroom. The spirit of Primo is rocking in the rocking chair. He looks at Copia bringing in Sara.

“What happened this time, brother?” Primo asked.

Copia takes the sunglasses off and shows Primo her white eyes. “The Oracle summoned Sara and did the ritual on her.”

Primo interrupts Copia. “Without her consent? She is not ready, Asshole. What the fucking hell were you fucking thinking?!” Elizabeth shows up. “Elizabeth, my love... Our granddaughter...”

“I didn’t want this either, my love.” Elizabeth nods at Copia. He lays Sara down on the bed. “But, this is beyond Lucifer’s will. Rebecca Imperator has created chaos within the clergy. Even those down below are taking notice.”

“What should we do?” Copia asked. “Sister isn’t going to…”

“Copia,” Elizabeth caresses Copia. “you must understand that there’s a thing called karma. She has to reap what she has sown.” Elizabeth sits down. “Sara has the power of foresight. She can predict what is to come. But it is only temporary. She needs the third and fourth gifts to succeed.”

Copia starts to shake and then cries. “I’m scared…” He tears up. “I don’t want to die…” Elizabeth comforted him.

Sara wakes to see Copia crying. She moves over and taps on the empty side of the bed. “Come here, Uncle Copia.” Copia looks at Sara. Copia lays down next to Sara and begins sobbing. Sara hugs Copia as she sees visions of his death as he falls backstage. Sara grips Copia. “It’s okay, Uncle Copia. It’s going to be okay.” The spirits of Primo and Elizabeth watch over Sara and Copia.

“You got to be kidding me!” Screams Markus.

“This is bad.” Omega compared the documents.

“That is fraud.” Sergeant Jackson spoke.

Alexander nods. “Jessica, you have to get the Bureau of Investigators involved. Because this might end up in court.”

“Understood, sir. We will have the documents ready to be submitted.” Said the voice over the phone.

“Thank you and take care.” Alexander hangs up his phone.

Markus rubs his forehead and takes out his phone. “Hilda, it’s me. We got some bad news.” Omega takes photos of the documents with his phone and sends them through text. “Well, Sister has been forging documents with Copia and my signatures.” He paused. “Yes, I need to know how many documents has she been forging. If she’s getting out of line, she will face the consequences for betraying the Clergy.” He stood quietly. “Yes, check the bank statements too. Just in case. Sister Imperator can’t be trusted right now.” He looks at Alexander. “Of course, set up an emergency meeting. The officers will be attending as well.” Markus hangs up his phone.

Omega received a message in Swedish. He messages back. “Sister Imperator had committed fraud. The local police know. She is being investigated by them as well.”

Omega's phone rings and a man starts yelling at him. “Are you shitting me right now, Omega?”

“No, I’m not. Sister Rebecca Imperator has committed fraud. I don’t think Papa knows.” He looks at the director. “The director is helping with the investigation along with the other members of the bloodline.”

The voice yelled. “What! They’re other members of the bloodline outside of our communion!” The voice became louder. “That’s impossible!”

“Allow me to explain.” Alexander interrupted. “I’m Alexander Dickson. I’m an attorney working on this case. Have you heard of the Delta Hospital abductions?”

The voice over Omega’s phone became confused. “Huh? The kidnapping scandal? I heard of it. Why you ask?”

“Because my birth name is Matteo Emeritus. The son of Francesco and Elizabeth Emeritus. I was one of the kids who was taken to be adopted by the hospital.” The voice became silent. “I became a lawyer because of what happened. Their actions caused pain and suffering to the parents of children who were taken.”

“I see…” The voice went silent for a minute. “Omega, keep doing the investigation on Sister Imperator. I’m going to send someone from the main branch. Keep me posted on any new developments.”

“Yes, Frater Dracon.” Omega said.

“Lord Lucifer, give me strength. This is not happening.” The voice hangs up the phone.

“Omega? Tell me that wasn’t the main clergy.” Markus spoke.

Omega nods. “If the main clergy didn’t know, I would not be here.”

“Sister Imperator, you fuck up…” Markus takes a deep breath. “I have to talk to her when she gets back.”

Sunshine runs into the room with a doughnut in her mouth. She gets under the table and starts eating. She made cat noises as she ate. Two officers show up. Markus and Alexander point down to the table.

The two officers walked up to the table. “Alright, doughnut thief! Time to go to jail!” One of the officers shouted before yanking her out from under the table.

She screams like a cat and gets ready to claw at the officers. “Sunshine!” She looks at Alexander. “That’s enough! Learn to behave.” She hisses before being taken away. Markus and Omega look at Alexander. “It’s a dad thing.”

Omega looks confused. “A dad thing?” He tilted his head. “Doesn’t your wife do that?”

“No, she left us a long time ago.” Alexander pointed out. “My wife wanted to be with her affair partner. My kids were still young. I never told them the truth about it and probably never will.”

The secretary enters the room and goes up to Markus and whispers something in his ear. “Really?” He sighed. “Tell the council that someone from the main branch is coming and Sister Imperator is reprimanded from doing clergy duties until the investigation is complete.”

“Understood, sir.” She looks at the documents and says. “Isn’t this the receipt for the tax credit?” She pulls out a copy of the receipt.

“Why is this in here?” Alexander asked.

She shows Markus one of the receipts. “20 packs of juice boxes under clergy expenses?” Markus is puzzled.

“Copia…” Markus and Hilda spoke.

Markus told Hilda. “We’re going to have a word with him later.”

Dewdrop runs to the room and hides behind Alexander. Cirrus and Cumulus enter the room pissed. “Dewdrop, what did you do?” The director asked.

“Yeah, Dewy. Tell them.” Shouted Cirrus.

Dewdrop hissed at the girls. Alexander pinches the back of Dewdrop’s neck. Dewdrop went limp. He looks up at Alexander.

“What did you do?” The director’s left eye glowed.

Dewdrop goes into his shirt and pulls out a pair of pink lace underwear.

“Really?” The director said.

Cirrus goes up to Dewdrop and opens his shirt. Different types of women’s underwear poured out from his shirt.

Dewdrop looks at Alexander. “I’m not defending you.” Alexander told Dewdrop.

One of the officers entered the room and saw Dewdrop being held over a pile of women’s underwear. “Guys, the underwear thief has been caught!”

Dewdrop scrambles to collect the pile and tries to run. But the director helps Alexander stop Dewdrop in his tracks. The officer moved in and arrested Dewdrop.

“Yo, I’m innocent! I didn’t do anything wrong!” Dewdrop screamed.

“Bull shit!” Yelled Cirrus. “Just be happy that Mountain is not here. He could have taken you to air jail.”

When Dewdrop was taken away, Cirrus and Cumulus goes over to Alexander.

“Excuse me, sir. Are you Sara’s father?” Cumulus spoke.

“Yes, I am.” Alexander reached into his jacket and pulled his business card from his pocket.

Cirrus reads the card. “Baby, look! This is the lawyer who is going to help Sunny.”

Cumulus looks at the business card. “Alexander Dickson. District Attorney Prosecutor.” She looks up at Alexander. “Are you serious?”

“Sunshine wants an outside lawyer who is not biased in the clergy. So, she came to me for help.” Alexander explained.

Cirrus got suspicious. “She wasn’t alone when she came to you, right?”

Alexander stood up to Cirrus. “No, she was with someone named Cowbell.”

Cirrus and Cumulus look at each other. “Her uncle.” They both relax and smile.

“So, you are taking her father’s case.” Cumulus wags her tail. “Finally! She was praying for this day to happen.”

“Yeah, but the Ghost Project can’t be delayed then it already is.” The director pointed out. “We will have a replacement for her. So, she can be at the trial and the Ghost Project can continue the tour.”

Cumulus looks concerned at the director. “Are you sure? I remember stories of that time with Terzo…”

The director stopped her. “I understand the Terzo has his flaws. But what happened between him and his ghouls was not his fault. Sister Imperator overruled his decisions for the clergy. It landed him in hot water and the loss of respect of the ghouls.”

Cirrus growls. “That bitch. I heard she was hated by Terzo and now I understand why.”

“You two will continue together on the Ghost Project.” The director informed. “Her replacement will be informed to Copia.”

“Don’t worry about Sunshine. I’ll keep an eye on her.” Alexander told the girls.

“Babe, should I tell him?” Cumulus looks at Cirrus and nods. “Down in the catacombs. Section B-12. Dungeon cell number 1204. That’s where Sunny’s father is.” Cirrus told Alexander.

“It’s about time she can finally be with her father.” Cumulus said as she locked eyes with Cirrus.

A ping sound came from Alexander’s phone. “Alex, I got the guy you wanted. Will be over in an hour. -Robin. P. S. You owe me dinner tonight.”

“What is it?” Asked the director.

“Looks like the lawyer she hired is coming over sooner than expected.” Alexander told them.

Cirrus and Cumulus got excited and hugged each other. They hug Alexander and rushed to Sunshine to tell her the news. Then a text showed up on his phone saying, “They’re here. I’m in the principal’s office. I’m scared. -William”

He text back, “Call my phone number and put me on speaker. I am on my way. -Alexander”

The phone rings and he picks up the phone he can hear the conversation between the principal, the teacher and two officers .

“Okay, kid.” The officer told William.

“Don’t even think about it!” Yelled Alexander. “You do realize you are violating his rights under the fourth amendment, right?”

A cop looks around. “Who said that?”

William takes out his phone and shows it to an officer.

“This is district prosecutor, Alexander Dickson and legal attorney for the boy, William Parker.”

“Shit…” the cop mumbles.

“I know you want to use the boy to get to my daughter. But that’s not happening. I already aware of what you have been up to. I’m already heading over to the school. You better not take him or you will be charged with child kidnapping and witness tampering.”

“Who do you think you are?” Yelled one of the cops.

Another set of officers went from behind the cops and arrested them on the spot.

“Didn’t you hear the guy? The district prosecutor was on his phone. Hey, Alex!”

“Hey Keven!” Alexander shouted from the phone. “Can you keep an eye on the boy for me until I get there?”

“Sure thing, sir.” He snapped the handcuffs on the cop. “Give me a minute while I read his rights.”

William looks at his phone. “How’d they get here so fast?”

Alexander chuckles. “I called them in advance. Just in case I can’t make it.” The bell rang from the hall.

The principal said to William. “Go to your classroom. If your legal guardian shows up, I’ll call the teacher for you to come into my office. Understand?”

“Yes, sir.” William grabs his backpack. “I have to go. Tell Sara, I am waiting for her to pick me up. My dad put her as my emergency contact.”

“No problem. Thanks for letting me know.” Alexander hangs up the phone. He looks at the director. “Looks like we have to wake up Sara. She is the only person who can get William out of school.”

The director and Alexander went to Primo’s bedroom and sees Copia sleeping with Sara and Primo in his rocking chair.

Primo looks up at the director. “Ah, Markus. What brings you to visit me?”

“Hello, papa Primo. I’m here to get Sara. There’s an emergency with her apprentice.” The director answered.

Sara woke up. “Is William in danger?”

“Yeah, they showed up. Lucky I called my boys in advance and they made it just in time.”

“Fuck,” Sara slowly moves Copia so he doesn’t wake up. “Grandpa, do you have bigger sunglasses? I don’t want to hurt my eyes.”

“Me? No. Ask your uncle, Secondo. He should have a spare. His left eye burns sensitive to the sun. So, he always keeps a pair on him.” Primo told Sara.

Sara gets up and kisses Primo. “Thanks grandpa.”

They leave the room leaving Copia to sleep in peace.

Genre: Omegaverse Au based off KinnPorsche: Thai BL Drama

A little about the author: I am a mother of two beautiful children, one of whom has special needs, and the other loves everyone. I started a Patreon, and I would be grateful if you donated to help me make ends meet while I am out of work.

This is the very first story I wrote. I posted it here in July 2023, but I have now edited it and finally decided to add it to my library. I hope you enjoy it. I only have two chapters written so far, but I may get back into it... once I am healed up from my hospitalization and almost dying at the start of August 2024.

Each chapter starts with a definition. (thought it would be cool) 💜💜💜

Warnings: NOT BETA READ!! This chapter does have guns, violence, Alpha, and motorcycles.

hi·er·ar·chy

/ˈhī(ə)ˌrärkē/

noun

A system or organization in which people or groups are ranked one above the other according to status or authority.

It is everywhere and in everything.  

From birth, children are subject to their elders; in schooling, students are subject to teachers who are subject to administration.  

At work, new hires are the bottom man on the totem pole, followed by the leads or supervisors, and above them are managers and directors; then, at the top, you have CEOs and owners.  

Everyone on the planet should abide by all variations of hierarchies.  

However, an internal hierarchy also comes into play when humans are between 15 and 18 years old and present as Alpha, Beta, or Omega. This would tip the scales and disrupt everyone's checks and balances of other hierarchies in play.  

Luckily, times have progressed, and there have been rights movements, laws put in place, and general manners taught to all.  Now, Omegas can hold positions of power, and Alphas can be the homemaker of the family.  Still, they rarely do as it is in their nature to act accordingly and submit appropriately.  

Then you have the scarce and highly respected ones that remain human and never present. They are seen as gemstones or purity markers and are coveted, not in a good way.

That is where you will find my name, Anikinn Theerapanyakun, in the books.  Next to it, Gender class: N/A Human.  Status: Second Child of the Main family, named Heir to the family business.

Once it was clear that my Elder brother, Thankhun—Beta, was not of sound mind after being kidnapped, and my youngest brother, Kimhandt—Alpha, left the family to follow a music career, I was the best and only choice to take over as the leader of the strongest Mafia in Thailand. 

When I never presented a second gender, it was seen by many as a sign that one so rare should be the one to take over. 

One would think that the transition would have been smooth and accepted, but that hardly happens in my world. 

To prove that I was the best choice, aside from my sub-gender rarity, I efficiently managed to turn a higher profit from our “trades” than my father had during his entire reign. This earned respect from many of those who served the family. The ones who didn’t show their proper respect were given reasons to fear disrespecting me as the new Head of the family.  

Some attempted to tell me that I needed to be protected by someone with the sub-gender of an Alpha. Both Alpha men and women came begging my father to mate me off just because I was only a human.  

It didn’t stop there. 

We even got a few offers to mating from the desperate Omega who sought to make a name for themselves as bagging one of Thailand’s top 10 most eligible bachelors. 

I have been burned once, a long time ago, by someone who wanted to mate with me… someone I almost gave my heart and soul to. 

However, there is still unrest among some of the leading mafia families in and around Thailand, and taking a mate would be used against me. So I don’t, trying to avoid any more weakness in my image.  I'm not saying that I don’t dabble in the pretty boy now and again, but nothing committed, always paid for, and no kissing is ever allowed. 

“Damn Italians!  Always trying to show that they only follow my Alphahole of a father!”

“Khun Kinn, we need to get you out of here,” Big, my head of security detail, yells at me over the gunfire and motorcycle engines as we run down the alleyway.  

Ducking, shooting back, trying not to fall, and not knowing where we are going or where the hell my security team is. 

“Ahh!!” Big screams, gripping his arm, “Go on, Khun Kinn.  I will try to hold them off here.  Pete says they are close.  Keep your phone on you, Khun Kinn.  Don’t worry, Arm will trace it, and I will always find you, Boss.” 

Big directs me as the bullets stop flying for a few moments and then shoves me down an alleyway filled with neon lights, smelling of piss, vomit, and booze. 

I trust my team as much as allowed in my world and take off looking for any entrance—the need to get inside without being seen becomes my driving force. 

Why is every street filled with people, dark, and seemingly without a way out?

I look down another alleyway, and I hear music playing!!  Thank God there must be a club or bar nearby, which means they will have a loading dock or patio where I can get in.

Following the music, I hear the shouts and pounding feet behind me, catching up.

Suddenly, the narrow alleyway opens to precisely what I thought it would be: a loading area, but it's not empty.  Even with death following behind me, my breath catches at the sight of a gorgeous, well-toned man leaning against the wall smoking. 

“I need your help!”

The man was startled at my demand as my pursuers busted through the alleyway behind me. 

Quickly, I made my way to stand next to the man, “Aren’t you going to help me?”

After taking a quick glance at the low-life thugs that are squaring off with us and a cursory head-to-toe spine-tingling look at me, the man smiles cheekily and simply says, “$50,000.”

“Excuse me?!?”

“You want my help?  It's gonna cost $50K.  Take it or leave it,” the man states over his shoulder as he puts out his smoke, rolls his defined shoulders, and cracks his neck.  “Do we have a deal?”

“Deal.” 

That is when the world just slowed down.

Without breaking a sweat, the man lays out all three of my pursuers, then smiles at me and bares his elongated K-9s.  

This man is an Alpha, and I just received protection with a price.

I hope he sticks to the money and is not hoping for anything more because I am not an Omega and will not bow down to another Alphahole. 

Slowly, albeit smugly, he walks up to me.  

He is getting ready to say something, but a flash of silver over his shoulder pulls my attention behind him, where one of the thugs struggling to stand is getting prepared to shoot him.  Without any thought, just instinct, I pull the man towards me and cover him.  

A deep, rumbling growl emits from the man I am now hunched over protecting.  

Why the hell am I protecting him now?  

He is the one getting paid to protect me from this shit.

Before another thought can form, the man tugs on my arm and pulls me through what I assume is a bar and out the front.  He hops on an older, slightly beat-up motorcycle.  

All I can do is stare.  

Why is that so hot-looking right now?  

I am trying not to get shot, and here I am, trying not to drool at the sight of a slightly sweaty unknown Alpha with well-toned muscles, tight black pants, and straddling a cheap-ass motorcycle.

BANG BANG

“Fuck, dude!  Get on!” The man yells at me again with a bit of a growl in his voice and starts the motorcycle up.  

Quickly following his orders, for nooooo reason other than to save my ass, I hop on his bike, and off we go.  The sudden jerk of the motorcycle startles me, and I grab onto the man's waist to avoid falling off.  Zig-zagging through traffic, time passes, and the speed slows down, but my grip on the man stays the same.  

Who can blame me, right?  

He is a friendly, solid, warm, burning wood-scented man driving, and I am a passenger.  

If anyone asks, it was for safety reasons.

Once we knew the coast was clear and we were no longer in danger, the man pulled into a filling station, and I got off.

“Thank you for your help.” 

I tell him while attempting to collect some resemblance of decorum with “windblown hair” and an “after being chased” disheveled suit.  

Silence.  

No, you are welcome, or no problem… just silence.  

Looking up, I see the Alpha look at me with piercing eyes, as if he expects me to pull a stunt or KowTow.  

“What is your name?  I need to know for the gift baskets,” I ask, which only gets me a smirk as he slowly stands up and walks toward me, still his gaze unyielding. 

“$50,000.”

“Oh that is right.  I do not carry a wallet on me.  Give me your name and phone number so I can wire it to you?”

“Oh yes, here you go.  I will surely give a man I do not know, who has no scent, and who used me to avoid being killed my number so that his henchmen can come to find me and silence me in my sleep.  I think not.” He smugly and growly informs me, placing his hands on his hips.  

The only thought passing through my mind is ‘I wonder how his hips would feel in my hands or his hand holding my hips instead.”

While I am blatantly staring at said man's hips, he steps close enough to me that a warm puff of air smelling of burning wood, like a fireplace, is blown on my face without me noticing.  

Snapping out of my what can only be explained as a temporary loss of consciousness and not horny teenage-like daydreams, I now realize the Alpha is so close a deep, quick breath would be all it would take to… 

DAMN IT, KINN!  

Think with your brain and not your balls.  

Sneering at the closeness in proximity and taking a step back, the man takes me in one more time.  Running his tongue along his teeth, his eyes light up, and with speed only Alphas possess, he has my left arm in his hand and is grabbing my watch. 

“This will do.  I'm sure it's worth enough.  You can borrow money for a pay phone.” Stepping back, the Alpha mounts the motorcycle, slips on the watch, and starts the engine up. 

Before I knew it, a panic started to make a pit in my stomach. 

He is leaving!  

He can’t go!  

“Wait!” I yell, startling him, “I never got your name.  So I can pray for blessings upon you for helping me?” I question, taking a step forward, praying that Arm and Big arrive before he leaves.

After a sideways glance and a fake smile, "Jom, my name is Jom,” he says as he rides off. 

Arm, my tech geek bodyguard, is talented, but I hope he is good enough to find this Alpha Jom.  He has my favorite watch, and I should give him the money out of proper etiquette, but the pit in my hand just doubled in size at the thought of never finding him again.  

I swear it is just about good business and nothing more… is nothing more… it shouldn’t be anything more... Right?

Couch Confessions and Heavy Petting

🖤 All Previous Parts Here 🖤

Dom x Colson (Yungblud x Machine Gun Kelly)

Warnings: ABO/Omegaverse dynamics (knots, slick, vaguely confusing reproductive explanations), mpreg, mentions of murder, mentions of fighting, sad boys, feeling left out, mentions of masterbation with a hairbrush, mentions of choking kink, masterbation, heavy petting, boys in love 🖤 Rating: explicit

They never ended up getting the call that Dom's father was dead but they found out what happened through the fucking media pretty quickly. Just a few days later it was plastered online but not in the way they thought it would be. 'Justin Harrison, Machine Gun Kelly's Future Father-in-Law Arrested in Hospital' was the last thing they assumed to see and the punk felt… mildly insulted to be honest. Was he chopped liver?

It seemed as if he'd crawled his ass inside the store to call for help and there must have been something obvious or perhaps the police were just waiting for an excuse, it wasn't like the bastard had been all that careful in his work. Justin was caught for fraud and forgery, even a connection with a mob of sorts. Dominic had been overwhelmed and at least a little calmed. They wouldn't have to deal with him for a while and even though he didn't snitch about who nearly took his life, the kid's family knew. He'd never been so harassed.

It had been two weeks since their trip and at first the singer had been flying high on finally getting revenge but after the calls started that pride began to fade to pain. It wasn't just his family, lots of rags wanted to interview him and eventually Gavin came for a visit to take his phone and set him up with a new one. It was the first time Kells liked the guy but he had to get everything off the device first. He couldn't lose all those memories and job or not he didn't trust anyone with images of his lover nude- and they both had plenty. Once that happened everything felt quiet again, especially with Tom fielding the social media bullshit.

Colson had been holed up in their music room for a few hours, trying to get his own suits off his back, they wanted him to ride the wave and speak out about it. They thought it would be great press since he came from 'the wrong side of the tracks' and was doing so well now. To him it felt like an after school special and that wasn't his vibe. Considering he was still the type to curb stomp an asshole and leave him for dead he didn't think speaking out about crime was right. He was sure it would come to light eventually but for the time being he just wanted to focus on his pack. They were so close to time anyway, he couldn't split focus yet.

When he was finally able to hang up with the men he ran a hand through his hair and wandered out to find his mate. When he didn't find Dom in the bedroom he was worried but of course his beautiful ball of bitch couldn't get far on his own and he found him on the couch, staring dead eyed at yet another news story. There was an oversized hoodie wrapped around him, a thick fuzzy blanket in his lap, and those damn white girl UGGs on his feet. The kid looked comfy but exhausted. "You cold sweetheart?" He hummed, leaning over the back of the sofa to kiss his lover's hair. The stench of depressed omega clogged his senses and a low whine got stuck in his throat. Did he have to remove all forms of media so his fiancé could rest? Shit.

"Yeah. Ain't it freezing?" Dom asked back with a soft tired voice but… fuck no. It was almost his birthday, smack in the middle of summer. Their flat was one of the few places around that actually had air conditioning but they didn't have it too low, the punk shouldn't be shivering that was for damn sure.

Colson sighed and hopped over the couch, bouncing as he landed and he grinned when his partner rolled his eyes. "What?" He huffed, laughing softly. He curled an arm around the kid's shoulders and cuddled close, fully ignoring the shit getting spewed from the news.

"Show off. Rude if ya ask me. I can't move like tha' no more."

"Cool cause I didn't ask. I know it gets you hot having such a badass alpha." He gave him his best cocky smirk which only got a bigger scoff but Dom's lips twitched in a smile and that's all he wanted. "Can we turn this off? You got cartoons here? Come on, just ignore it." He groaned, pressing his cheek to his boyfriend's temple. "Isn't it time to focus on my Jellybeans?"

The look Dom gave him would have shriveled a lesser man, as it was Col still had to swallow a whine. "Yours? YOURS? Tha's jus' it ain't it? We yours, I ain't me own bloody person! I'm an incubator for ya GIANT fucking spawn and a warm 'ole for ya cock. I'm your omega! Not fucking me anymore! 'Ey don't even fucking say me stage name Colson! It's jus' your mate, your every'fin!"

When the rant started to calm Kells arched a brow and pet a palm over the punk's belly. He knew aggression could work up their babes and he worried about any strong emotion starting labor. "You done? You forgot tight hole." The screech in response was immediate and the singer wiggled as if he'd somehow get off the sofa by himself. It was precious but Col just pulled him closer and pressed a loud over exaggerated kiss to his cheek. "Settle your ass down bitch. You're straining so much you're gonna push our kids out early- shiiit. I'm sorry this is happening but guess who's fault it isn't? Mine."

"If you 'adn't beat 'im…" Even as he tried to make the point he felt awful about it. He was proper proud of his daddy for kicking ass and he stopped the sentence short. He wouldn't let his family ruin anything else. Not between them. They'd been doing amazing. It seemed like having a new way to mark up the punk really soothed the fearl beast inside the alpha and seeing the ring of bruises on his own skin made Dom purr. He sighed deep, tears welling his eyes but he laid a palm over the rapper's. "We'd be fucked so fank you. Jus' 'ard."

"Yeah I get it, you're a spoiled little princess and you want to be in the spotlight." The bastard teased and he couldn't help but giggle.

"Fuck tha'! It's awful Cols. I don't know 'ow you 'andle it."

"Once a dirt bag always a dirt bag? Eh, I'm cool with it. This is probably the nicest I've been talked about in years. Especially considering the pedo shit is starting back up again." Even though he tried to shrug and act like none of it affected him, Dom could feel the pain. See the dark circles under his lover's beautiful blue eyes.

"Wait- cause of me? Fuck tha' I'm not tha' baby face. I'm a full grown man. Ya know 'ere you wouldn't even get shite for calling a seventeen year old 'ot. It's all fucking bollocks." He didn't mean to bring up old drama, it just slipped out and the alpha turned to look at him with wide eyes.

"Babe… how the fuck do you know about that?"

Dom swallowed hard and looked away, his lip rolling between his teeth. "Um, it was brought up in an article?"

"Bull-fucking-shit doll, you were just surprised they were using you to call me out. How do you know about that?"

"I… maybe… I'm sure I jus' seen it around. Shut up." He huffed, his cheeks pink. He tried to squirm away again but Col wouldn't let him. He kept him close. "I maybe 'ad a crush alright? Been a fan a lot longer 'an you." He didn't know why he was tearing up again but he felt exposed being honest. It wasn't like he was hiding it on purpose but it made him feel unequal in their relationship and he was already feeling that.

"How long?" Colson couldn't help but ask. He could barely believe it. He knew both his bitch and their photographer roommate used to blast Candy all the time but he just assumed it was something they found after they started messaging each other.

"General Admission." It was barely above a whisper but the kid went limp as if he felt defeated but honestly it was exactly what the rapper needed to hear. "I saw Alpha Omega and… I dunno. 'Ad a crush. You amazing Cols ya know tha'. It was actually um…" He trailed off, pulling his hoodie sleeve up to his mouth to nibble on. The next words were muffled he was so nervous and Kells found him absolutely adorable. "It was the firs' time I got wet."

Whatever sweet heart eyed moment was starting to build between them got shattered with those few words. The alpha's dick twitched in his shorts and he leaned close to his mate, getting right in his face. "Yeah? Bullshit. That couldn't be the first… You were- what? Eighteen?"

Dom dropped his hand and took a deep breath, the vibe between them had shifted and his daddy was in a mood. Sometimes he was almost overwhelming but he loved every moment. God he could taste the man's need. "Me body never worked like it was supposed to. Figured I came out wrong and I'd jus' be a beta wiv an extra 'ole. Docs said it was jus' taking time and Justin was pissed but I was okay wiv it. 'En I saw you and…" He moved closer, their lips so close he could lick him if he wanted. "I got so wet daddy. Got so needy I 'ad to touch me'self."

Col growled, his chest rumbling with it and he reached up to wrap his hand around his lover's jaw. His pulse raced in his chest, all his fears vanishing on a wave of need. He didn't know how he deserved all this but fuck he was thankful. "What did you do?" He rasped, flicking his tongue out to taste the boy's lips and when the punk blushed hotter he licked over his pink cheek.

"Found a 'airbrush-"

"You own a hairbrush?"

"Wanker. If ya don't wanna 'ear…" He trailed off and Kells snapped his fangs close to Dom's ear before he nibbled playfully at the lobe.

The rapper slid a hand down over the blanket, his palm cupping his future wife's hard sweet cock. He slipped the other into his own shorts, fisting his dick as he teased his mate. Dom was talking about masterbation so it just fit. He was just helping because his overly pupped baby momma couldn't do it on his own anymore. That was all. "Tell me."

"Put ya video on repeat-" His voice dropped to a whimper, his hips pushing forward. He could feel himself drenching his briefs and probably the blanket between them. He was never joking when he said only Col could make him feel this way. For anyone else it wasn't the same. "Rolled on me side and put- put um- fuck-" His lover's touch got harder, those long talented fingers rubbing over his cunt as his palm put all the right pressure on his cock. He could hear the way Colson's fist stroked his own and it drove him just a little mad. It always felt like a waste if they didn't finish inside each other.

"Where did you put it?" He demanded. Their play felt almost innocent compared to the way they normally made love. He could still see the dark skin on his future wife's neck, they'd been going hard lately and he meant to take a day off but of course they couldn't. They never could. His pace picked up, he knew they wouldn't last long and they didn't need to. If he got them off quick and dirty they could rest, he wasn't really breaking his vow for a gentle day. He wasn't actually fucking the punk. Right?

"Well first I touched me'self. Me f-fingers! Put two inside me- ohfuckdaddy-" He slurred, a bead of drool rolling down his chin. Colson struck, licking his baby's spit up before he nipped his plush bottom lip and tugged. When he let it go the omega almost broke but he pulled his touch back a little. He wanted the story before he'd let him cum. "In me pussy. Was so tight. So so- mmmfuck! Barely fit. Didn't feel like enough. Wanted to feel you. Oh God alpha-" Dom was shaking, his body trying to roll and grind his dick against his mate's hand.

"I can promise you that hairbrush wasn't it either." He joked, his voice low and desperate but laced with pride.

"Course not. I didn't know. Wanted to 'urt cause I knew you'd be too big." It shouldn't be hot but it so was and Kells had to squeeze the base of his knot to keep from blowing his load too soon. The singer was so into his own pleasure he didn't notice, he just kept going. "Needed to ache for you. From you. Shoved the 'andle deep and fucked me'self- fuck Colson! Fucked me'self 'ard and fast. Was so loud. So wet. Jus' for you. Ever."

That was it, that one vow broke the man and his cock jerked, his knot popping in his fist. White heat spilled over his palm and soaked his boxers till he full body trembled, watching Dom watch him. His rhythm over his mate's pussy faltered but the kid kept squirming and he kept the pressure for him. It wouldn't take much. "Slut. So fucking horny for me. Did you jerk that cute little dick or just play with your cunt?"

Dom flushed, he was swimming in sweat and slick but he didn't care. He was too close to pay attention to anything else. "Firs' time was jus' me cunt. Didn't fink you'd like me cock so- so- fuck! So much-" He could barely talk anymore, he didn't know how Kells was speaking or if maybe they were just that mentally connected that he was reading the alpha's mind.

"Love your dick. It's precious. I'd love to feel it- yeah baby. Can see it. You're close huh? Cum for me." He commanded, panting so hard it was barely louder than a thought but it didn't matter. Dom felt his permission and he shattered for his alpha. Warmth spread through the blanket, his bitch's slick gushing free and drenching everything in its path. He could feel that part of his lover that was barely more than a clit twitching against his palm and he didn't know what gave him more pride, the singer's orgasm now or all the times he'd gotten his boyfriend off before they even met.

Dom moaned as his daddy helped him through his pleasure but the moment he felt overstimulated the man pulled back and started helping him out of everything that was overheating him. "Not cold anymore huh?" He joked and the punk whined back. Of course he wasn't but he was definitely spent. How had they gotten there? How had a conversation about him feeling like he was disappearing end up with him talking about the first time he saw Col?

When he caught his alpha's still red rimmed gaze he felt his belly flip. Did it really matter if anyone else saw him when his daddy only had eyes for him? With his devil he felt more seen than ever before. His mate loved him and his babies would too. If it took the world a little while to catch up that was alright. The only man to ever make him slick himself was just as obsessed with him, the wanker he'd had a crush on for years. He was the omega to the Machine Gun's alpha, nothing could make him feel more special. "You still got that hairbrush?" Kells teased and he rolled his eyes. He couldn't let the bastard see how dick whipped he was for him.

"You filfy Cols." He scoffed, his nose wrinkling but inside he was fighting the biggest smile.

"Yeah yeah. Can't fuck me up bitch. I'm the only fucker that's ever gotten Yungblud wet." He winked, trying to cheer his lover up more but he wasn't lying about the pride. How could that not make him feel incredible? His baby momma was amazing.

OC Primer is a handsome dude, right?

Show of hands on who’d root for this brown eyed boy in a fanfic? Because I have a deal for you!

EXCERPT:

Primer and Boost were making a run for supplies, having taken a small squad to Ryloth for trading and purchasing. They wanted doonium for fuel, to supply their homes with warmth and get their ships off the ground. They planned to hang around on the planet for a while, maybe see if the men could get leads on other clones needing evac or help. The men disembarked the cargo ship and made their way into the city of Lessu, ready to bargain and buy. It didn’t take long to see it was a city more or less under marshal law. There were stormtroopers everywhere, and several fortified areas scattered around, all heavily guarded. They noted there were even areas of new construction, as if something had happened here fairly recently requiring rebuilding. Primer and Boost shrugged it off; Ryloth had always been a system at war, holding out against the Separatists as long as they could during the Clone War. They were a fierce and stubborn people, and the clones noted many furtive looks thrown their way from the natives. Primer nodded to his men to keep their hats down and heads low; clones were all rather easily recognizable since they shared the same face and voice, nearly the same build and gait. It wouldn’t do to get picked up by the Empire as deserters.

The men fanned out through the city, going about locating and purchasing the supplies they needed, but came up a bit empty when trying to buy doonium. It seemed the Empire had cornered the market on that particular product, taking over the mines and refusing to distribute the fuel to any other buyers. Primer noted the Twi’lek citizens seemed rather tight lipped and angry about the whole subject. They were mining the fuel, but it was basically being stolen from them right under their very noses. The city was uneasy, simmering in anger and ready to boil to the surface. It didn’t take the clones long to realize they should probably hurry their business and leave.

There was a bit of a to do happening on the edge of the shops, over at the landing zone for the city’s ambassadorial palace. An Imperial shuttle was standing ready for loading, and they noted a very tall, imposing figure in black, helmeted and cloaked like some kind of dark king. He was surrounded by a platoon of stormtroopers, and they were loading a group of what appeared to be prisoners on the shuttle. Primer wondered who in the galaxy that black figure could be; he’d never even heard of such a person before. Some of the prisoners appeared to be Twi’lek, but some were…clones. A couple of them suddenly put up a bit of resistance, and Primer was horrified to see the stormtroopers immediately start to beat the two men senseless while the dark man watched, his posture impassive. Boost stood next to Primer quietly watching the spectacle, and in their shock, they were noticed by a couple of the white clad stormtroopers on the periphery of the landing area, who raised an alarm that there were deserters among the crowd. Their cries got the attention of the figure in black, who turned his baleful glance in their direction, and ordered a squad of troopers to apprehend the clones. Primer and Boost turned and made to disappear into the crowd, hoping to lose their pursuers in the streets and warrens of Lessu.

This move only made the Man in Black send more troopers after them, and he evidently had little compunction about harming innocent civilians. He ordered his men to tear the city apart, spare no shop or street vendor in their search for the wayward clones, and Primer and his squad soon found themselves back at the periphery of the city, barricading themselves against the front of a building and using random carts and shipping containers for cover. The stormtroopers opened fire as soon as they saw Primer and the clones dig in. The Man in Black hung back a bit, watching the erstwhile battle unfold, studying the moves the clones were making. They seemed incredibly familiar to him, tactics he’d seen before as if in another life. When a Twi’lek child wandered onto the edge of their fire, Primer saw it and darted over to grab him, shielding the boy with his body and basically throwing him out of the way. It put Primer near a trooper, who moved to fire on him with a stunning blast. Primer grabbed a lid from a refuse bin for cover to redirect the blast at the trooper, missed his aim on the bounce and then took the shield and belted the trooper across the body with it. He followed that action up with a roundhouse kick that sent the stormtrooper flying into a heap, and rolled back under the incoming fire to his men, taking cover behind their barricade again. That was enough for the Man in Black’s memory to click. Only men from one group would have used a move like that. The Man commanded his troopers to pull back, and requested reinforcements from their cruiser orbiting the planet to be sent to the surface. He also had them set up an automatic heavy Z6 chain gun to fire on them in the meantime.

Primer knew some element about the fight had changed when the troopers pulled back and firing stopped for a moment. “What just happened, LT?” Boost asked in surprise and concern.

“Not sure,” Primer answered back tersely. “They may have made us,” he said with a worried tone. He could see them working on setting up the heavy gun; they were going to have to think up some plan fast or they’d all be dead soon.

“Well, what are we supposed to do about that? It’s just us. If we can’t get out of here and back to the ship without tearing Lessu apart, what should we do?” Boost was worried - it appeared to his trained eye that they were severely low on options.

Primer gave his sergeant a look out of the corner of his eye and a small shrug. Damned if he knew, the motion seemed to imply. Internally, he was doing his best to think up options, but he was seething really. He’d been a fool, standing there gaping like that where people could see his face. How could he have messed up so badly? What would the General do when she found out they were taken by the Empire? His anxiety was ratcheting up a notch every minute a solution didn’t present itself, which in turn was sending out signals he couldn’t control, or block. Belatedly, he realized she would know. The General would know they were in trouble because of his shared connection to her, and she would come for them, regardless of how he felt about that move. They had put her in danger with their actions, because Lara would not leave them to be taken.

Boost saw Primer freeze in some kind of terrible realization out of the corner of his eye, and was turning to ask what was wrong, what new threat was on the radar, when it was as if silence suddenly descended on them in a vacuum. The Man in Black turned to the troopers manning the heavy gun and gave them the order to open fire. In slow motion, Primer saw them turn to arm the gun and fire, but before the first blasts even got to their barricade, the bolts were stopped in midair, hanging in the open and vibrating with their potential power. Primer closed his eyes in knowledge and in some despair. It was too late to alter course now, though. As if time suddenly sped back up and sound returned with it, they looked over to see Lara standing behind them, holding the blaster bolts frozen by means of the Force.

Because Luke rejected Aemond’s bite and attempted mating when he was assaulted, does that provide him with some kind of advantage against Aemond in the future? Like he’s immune to whenever Aemond tries to use his scent or a command to influence/oppress Luke? It was a small kind of evolutionary protection when Luke was able to reject him, and I’d imagine/hope that protection his body afforded him would stay with him for the rest of his life. It’s like anything Aemond does just won’t work because of the attack. I guess it’s just that Aemond hurt him so badly and I’m hoping that in the future Luke won’t be affected by anything Aemond’s tries to attempt using his scent or alpha tendencies to try and show they should be mated. It would be such a mercy to Luke when Aemond starts to harass and stalk him in kings landing. I want to give Luke some kind of advantage like being nose blind or immune to the abo nonsense Aemond is trying to pull. In westerosi society, if an omega rejects the bite of an alpha, does that mean people think the gods have decided they shouldn’t be together at all? It would be really interesting if while Aemond was trying to play the patriarchal “father card” as an excuse to marry Luke, all of society was just saying no not just because of the assault but because of the rejection of the bite. It shows what Aemond did was in fact SA and that the gods have rejected him.

Omega’s being able to reject an alphas bite during high moments of distress is very much an evolutionary advantage for them that Luke’s thankfully been afforded. Though he’ll still be able to smell Aemond’s scent and recognize that his “alpha voice” is in use it won’t be nearly as potent, therefore will have little to none of the desired effect. Something Luke can brush off and go on about his day even though it’s triggering to experience.

Think bite rejection like a vaccine of sorts; the body has come into contact with this specific virus before, recognizes the pathogens, and so it’ll be able to fight them off in future events. Avoiding succumbing to sickness if they ever just so happen to be encountered again. And once an alpha’s mark on an omega is rejected it’s basically game over— you’ve lost whatever right the laws of nature once afforded you according to most.

They could try forcefully marrying the omega of course since alpha’s like Aemond don’t take rejection well. But finding someone to sanctify said marriage would be a nearly impossible task since a rejected bite is seen as a sign of unworthiness for various reasons.

Going back to biological defenses, being able to reject a bite is very hit or miss in these situations. Kinda similar to fight or flight. When made to face such a terrifying situation your body will either kick into drive and fight back, or you’ll go still in shock. Sometimes bites are rejected and others they take, It all just depends which is one of many reasons rape culture thrives so heavily in Westerosi society. Had Aemond’s mark actually took then the amount of people who’d believe an assault occurred and those who wouldn’t would be fairly split whereas in the canon TL most of everyone is on the same page in believing Luke’s story.

I'm back to ask about your wips again 👀 What's Clipped about? Oh oh and Omegaverse Royal AU with Rastim 💕

So the Omegaverse Royal AU is this one, but where it says "Rastim" it's actually a spin-off (or maybe I should say a parallel story? IDK that's what a spin-off is after all, but I wrote everything together and then separated the bits) about what's happening with Tim. I mention in that post that Ra's shows up because he wants a piece of the cake, and in this case the cake involves the Drake estates which 14 yo Tim is set to inherit when he's old enough. Case in point, he's too young for a recognized union of any kind. He presented as an Omega just a few months prior to these events, but by law he's not old enough for an official mating or to inherit anything. Also, King Alexander is not happy with the Al Ghuls coming over and going like "ah yes haha this is mine actually", "oh sure I will take this other one instead". All of this is however not going to stop Ra's from getting what he wants :)

"Clipped" instead is a veeeeeery old WIP. It's the very first DC darkfic I've ever written! I probably posted a couple of snippets here and there but never the entire thing because it's on hiatus, and who knows if I'll ever finish it. I wrote it after reading Future State (more than a year ago), and it's in fact a Future State inspired situation where vigilantes are outlawed so severely that some get executed publicly, some kept locked away for experiments on their meta-genes if they have any, and in general it's not a good situation especially since the Bats and Birds have had their identities revealed to the press. They're forced to live separated and in constant hiding, all linked through Oracle (which is not a single person at this point but a "vigilante-friendly group" lead by Babs) while they try not to get caught by authorities for who knows what.

In this picture, Deathstroke became some sort of vigilante hunter. He's allowed to be free and do whatever he wants (and his kids have some degree of immunity as well, or anyway they're relatively safe), but in exchange he hunts down, captures and "deals" with rogue metas and "former heroes". Which means that some get sent to governamental facilities to be brainwashed rehabilitated, some get publicly executed as mentioned, and some just... "disappear". It took Slade literal years, but finally he got his hands on a good chunk of the flock of birds (Damian, Dick, Tim and Jason). The thing is. Slade is a mental sadistic creep in this one, and before he does anything even remotely helpful, he's going to break the kids to little pieces and then rearrange them as he sees fit.

The story features (or anyway should feature) Dark!Sladin in almost all its shapes. It was really fun to explore how the kids deal with the situation, because Tim took the months of torture of his life and eventually decided to try and follow the rules to limit the damage, Jason instead had a mental breakdown and decided that he'd going to get himself killed again (not going to be easy to make Slade slip though). Damian doesn't grasp the gravity of the situation, and Dick is just desperate to do literally anything to help the others. But again, I'm not surem I will ever even publish it. I might end up posting it incomplete just cuz.

[a|b|o, candidate for future mate,  Ω!LQR α!WRH (w.i.p)] [Part 1 + 2]

RuoRen | Mo Dao Zu Shi Omegaverse + Modern AU 04-04-2022

[#ruoren, modern, a/b/o, age gap]

Where after the death of his first wife, A!wrh is sort of pushed by the en elders to find himself another partner, and this time they select omegas so he can actually have a mate and not just a beta as a wife.

Where the lan are nearly all alphas, especially in the main branch of the family. O!lqr simply happens to be deviating from the tradition.

the Wen family organise a couple of months in one of the residences for the candidate to be trained and show off their potential as a mate, wrh the most important one to impress obviously.

they believe it would do him good to have an omega partner, both for companionship and to help raise his two sons. It's also pretty great to create a link between two families. (apparently, wrh couldn't escape arranged marriage).

really, he doesn't want this, but he has no choices.

[𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝟭: 𝗯𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘁]

Lan Qiren looked at his phone when he received a new encouraging message from his brother, telling him everything would be alright. All he needed to do was stay for at least a couple of weeks and if it really didn't work he could just politely ask to leave and decline the agreement.

lqr knew it could be that easy to deal with, most likely no one would really stop it, but he still thought this was completely ridiculous.

⟦ᴀ ᴡᴇᴇᴋ ᴘʀɪᴏʀ⟧

Lan Qiren was enjoying an evening tea with his sister-in-law, watching over his two nephews who were drawing at the other end of the table. truly a peaceful day, a day off he could enjoy.

until his brother came into the room.

"Brother I have good news for you, Father is giving you a vacation," his brother said, making lqr frown. he never asked for a vacation, why was he being given one. He had a bad feeling about this, the last time it happened it was because their father had planned a blind date for him.

(none of which had gone really well and had left a sour memory).

he slightly squinted at his brother, looking at him suspiciously. "What is it really about?" he asked.

The clear facade of cheerfulness his brother had broken a little, his smile dropping a notch.

"You may have heard about the Wen family searching for a new mate for their heir right?" asked Qingheng-Jun

"People at the office sure liked to gossip about it" lqr replied, indicating he had indeed heard of it in passing. his frown only deepen as he saw where this was going.

"Well... the Wen elders and our father seem to have agreed on letting a Lan omega go too, since this could be a good potential and opportunity to create a connection between the family" qhj explained.

lqr couldn't help the sigh that escaped his mouth, putting down his cup of tea. he had thought their father had given up on finding him a mate. apparently not.

"I knew it wasn't something you would be pleased with, I tried to change his mind, but..." qhj paused a moment, sighing too, "but it is the first time in many generations that the main branch of the family has an omega".

lqr could only look at his tea for a moment, thinking. he knew what it meant: for the first time, someone was being married off into another family.

and honestly, he felt like maybe some of the older generations of Lan would be happy to have him be married off. he was one of the only Lan to be an omega, and the only one from the main family branch. their father had already been pretty lenient with not forcing him until today.

The Lan were considered to treat omega very well, but they were still very old-fashioned in a way: Lan omega would be married off to an alpha in an arranged marriage.

Really, he had been pretty lucky until now.

"The Wen are apparently ready to settle for any Lan omega, but... amongst our cousins, only three are omega, two of which already have a mate".

And the other one was already in a relationship with someone she loved. even if lqr wasn't close to their cousin, he couldn't bare thinking his own refusal would be the reason his cousin wouldn't be able to be with the person she loves.

"I suppose I will go then" he sighed before sipping some more tea, "From what I've heard, there will be many omega anyway, it doesn't mean I will be the chosen one". his brother gave him a sorry smile.

"Exactly, if you do not want him, you can just stay for a couple of weeks and then go or get kicked out for not following the rules".

his wife chuckled a bit, gaining their attention "As if a-ren could ever get kicked for this reason".

lqr couldn't help the little chuckle escaping him, a small smile on his lips, "indeed, although I doubt I would need to break the rule to be disqualified".

this gained him a sad look from the couple, a gentle hand patting his.

⟦ᴘʀᴇsᴇɴᴛ ᴅᴀʏ⟧

the omega sighed as he watched outside the car, the scenery looking really good.

He still couldn't believe he was indeed going to one of the wen residences to do this strange bride-picking event. were it not for him not really having a choice he would still be in Gusu doing his work. He wouldn't have flown all the way to Qishan and now have to do all this car ride.

All this for something he knew he would never be chosen in the first place.

He wasn't cute, petite and soft like a lot of alpha would prefer him to be. He was rather independent and wasn't scared to hold his ground even when being growled at, he wouldn't mind growling right back at them.

he was also an omega in his mid-thirties, his prime days as an omega was already gone. had he been an alpha like his brother it would be alright, after all, lan huan was born when qhj was 29 and for lan zhan he was 34.

it wasn't the same for him. he knew the comments people were saying about him, but he had never cared really.

he had never found someone suitable for him. They had either been pushed on him or they were people that were seeing him as lesser for being an omega and wanting of him something lqr would never be.

"Master Lan" he heard, taking him out of his thought with a slight startle. he turned back to the driver who had turned to him, offering him a polite smile. "We are here".

lqr nodded at this, getting out of the car, helping the servant with his luggage.

As they walk to the house, he took a look around. This residence seemed to be a bit isolated, you would need to walk a bit before joining the first neighbour. From the ride though he knew the city wasn't really far either, at least it wouldn't take hours to get to the nightless city if he ever needed something there.

He was guided to a lounge by a servant, joining all the other candidates.

As he had expected, everyone was easily more than a decade younger than him, all closer in age to Wen Ruohan. Really he was sticking out.

there were 10 of them and none of these younger omegas seemed familiar to him. ("They are probably from families originating from Qishan," he thought).

He didn't have the time to sit down, as a servant came to guide them to their rooms. "You will be paired with someone else in your room, everything has been arranged so it is still comfortable for two people to be in one room".

and indeed, when he got to his room, two sets of luggage were present in the room."We will tell you when dinner is ready, Madam Wen and the young master will welcome you" He politely thanked the servant before going back to his suitcase, ready to put his clothes away for his stay here.

"H-hi!" came a shy voice behind him, making him turn back from his task.

A young omega, his roommate he assumed, was standing at the door shyly, waving at him.+

"Hello, my name is Tang Xing, I will be your roommate for the time being" he smiled.

"I am Lan Qiren" he replied, extending his hand for a handshake. This seemed to startle the younger one who shyly shook his hand.

"So you are mister Lan".

lqr nodded at this, continuing with his tidying up of his clothes and necessities.

"So... did you come all the way here from Gusu?" tx asked, starting to do the same thing as him.

"I did" lqr replied, clearly understanding the young man was trying to calm his nerve by getting to know him a bit more. "Are you from Qishan? you don't exactly have the accent" he pointed out.

"You have good ears" the young man chuckled, "I am from Qinghe, so I suppose it makes both of us far from home".

after this a silence fell in the room, the both of them finishing settling down. lqr even took a quick shower to wash away the dirt from his travel, changing into more proper clothing for dinner.

He was a bit amused when he noticed tx was taking an example of him.

"Your tie is crooked" lqr pointed out, making the young man jump and blush at his comment.

"I-I am not used to wearing one, I always used the one you can clip on" he admitted.

"Come here, I'll show you," lqr said, taking the time to explain to him how to do it.+

"Thank you," tx said when they were done, a smile on his lips. "You are... really nice" he then added, "I was a bit intimidated at first" he admitted.

it wouldn't be the first time he was told that in his life, but lqr was happy that they had broken the ice already. It would be sad to live in the same space as someone else and be intimidated by them. Plus, as little as he really wanted to be here, it was always good to have at least one person you could talk to (even though he was not one to talk a lot).

"I am still nervous though... to meet with Madam Wen and young master Wen I mean" admitted tx, nervously playing with the end of his tie.

"I am sure you don't need to worry, just be yourself and everything should be fine".

soon they were called to the dining room, where Madam Wen was talking with some of the guests while waiting for everyone to arrive.

He only had the time to give some encouraging words to the young man so he wouldn't be so nervous when he suddenly heard his name being called.

He turned around only to see Madam Wen coming in their direction. He was about to greet her politely when he was instead hugged by her, surprising him.

"Look at you, I am sure you have grown since the last time I saw you a couple of years ago" she chuckled, "Even when you are not alpha, you Lan always ends up so tall and handsome"

"madam is as beautiful and charming as I remember" lqr commented. "Father sends his regards and congratulates you on the release of your latest novel" he added.

She seemed like she wanted to talk some more about catching up, but then noticed quickly the young omega sticking close to lqr.

"I assume you must be Tang Xing" She smiled after seeming to think about who she has met until now.

the young omega was frozen, clearly getting nervous again. lqr gently patted his back in an attempt to calm him down, tx looking back at him to see an encouraging smile.

"Y-yes! I am Tang Xing, pleased to meet you madam!" he said, politely bowing.

lqr didn't miss the fond look in the woman's eyes as she looked at the young man, seemingly appreciating this shy candidate.

They talked some more, catching up a little about how things had been for lqr.

all this while, the omega didn't miss how the others were eyeing them, making him sigh internally. Surely it would cause problems for him that mdm Wen seemed to be already close to him.

"But I cannot favour you, even if I already know how great you are" she joked as he was thinking about it.

"I expected as much" he replied with a smile.

then Wen Ruohan finally arrived, excusing himself for his tardiness. only then did they sit down. mdm Wen then did a speech about why they were here, sounding more serious than before.

It was really what lqr had imagined: putting people to the test to see if they were good enough to be her son's mate.

after that they started eating, conversations going all around the table. When lqr was not talking with mdm Wen he would talk with tx or simply listen around to what people were saying.

It was the first day and he had already caught onto some of them commenting negatively on others or complaining that some already had too much attention from the Wen.

this sure wasn't announcing itself to be a pleasant and easy couple of months here.

He was seriously considering staying only for the first couple of weeks.

[ᴘᴀʀᴛ 2: ʀɪᴠᴀʟɪᴛʏ ɪɴ ᴛʜᴇ ʜᴏᴜsᴇ]

All Lan Qiren could do after three days of this... training, is be exasperated and a bit tired.

It took one day for him to suddenly be seemingly hated by some of the other candidates.

He could suppose it all came from Madam Wen seemingly already liking him so much. But what could he really do about it? He already knew things like these would probably happen, this was pretty much why he didn't want to attend such an event before.

The drama wasn't worth it, especially when the alpha was often not that great anyway. At least, from the suggestion he had received in the past. He wasn't even invested in this very event.

although, even though he never had much contact with the alpha, he knew Wen Ruohan was a decent one. It was pretty clear the man wasn't seeing omega like there were inferior to him for being born that way.

It was a nice change and probably why he partly wasn't too mad about being forced to come here. At least wrh wouldn't be an ass.

He couldn't say as much for some of the candidates though. He wasn't going to play into their game either, he knew what he was worth and really none of this was something he was actually ready to fight for. He had already accepted that he was not a desirable mate in the first place.

It had taken only two days for him to notice he was indeed being targeted.

They were for now being let to get used to the place and each other, being given a chance to have some time with wrh and mdm wen to get to know them a little bit.

They were also slowly being eased into the rules & training. They would be taking turns making food, chores would be distributed by rooms and changing everything on who would do it.

He was happy that Tang Xing didn't seem to hate him, it seemed to be quite the contrary actually.

He hadn't expected to befriend one of his "rivals", but here he was, helping out this young omega who seemed really shy and unsure what to do now that he was also a candidate to be the mate of an alpha. An alpha that was from a rather big and rich family too.

"Tang Xing, wake up it is already six-thirty and we are on breakfast duty," he said, already dressed and ready to go to the kitchen to do his task for the day. Breakfast was eaten with everyone around 8, they should be more than able to finish preparing their parts of breakfast.

"ten more minuuutes" the young omega whined, hiding deeper into his blanket.

lqr was once again reminded that not everyone was doing like a Lan. waking up early for someone who wasn't used to it was hard. From what he had noticed, clearly, tx wasn't an early bird.

"We do not have ten minutes, you told me you didn't know how to cock pretty much anything, so I'll show you today how to do congee," he said.

He heard a groan coming from the bed, before the young man emerged from under the cover, looking him up and down.

"How can you be ready so early in the morning?" he asked as he got up, starting to get ready too.

"For centuries the Lan family has had rules, one of which is to not wake up later than 5 in the morning" lqr replied, which got him a shocked look from the young man.

"We are also not meant to work after 9, which was also usually when we would go to sleep" he added. this would make waking up at 5 in the morning not too bad.

"But obviously those are all very old rules and no one follows them as closely as some did in the past" he explained, "We are expected to rise early and not go to sleep too late, but no hour is truly set in stone nowadays... I've grown up waking up early unless I am sick, I rarely stay in bed late, it is only a habit to me".

the young man hummed at his explanation, clearly still a bit tired, but looking more ready to go in the kitchen now.

No one aside from servants was already in the kitchen, ready to help if needed. lqr politely thanked them before getting to work, finding an apron and getting ready to teach tx.

Everything went pretty well for the preparation until it was time to cook it, watching over it as they drank tea and prepared some side dishes too. "you are really good at explaining things" tx remarked with a smile, "Are you a teacher?"

"No, I simply work at my family's company" lqr replied, "but I did help with tutoring when I was in school, will probably do it again once my nephews are older".

"Well, I tell you, you would make a great teacher, if I had people like you teaching me before I would have done better in school I think" tx giggled.

They heard people talk behind them, noticing two other omega had come to the kitchen.

"good morning Mister Lan, good morning tang xing" shyly greeted Yuan Mingzhu, one of the three female omega present now.

"You do not need to be so formal with me," lqr remarked after greeting them.

"It is only natural to correctly greet our elders" Su Zhu smirked, as he poured himself some tea.

tx immediately looked more offended than lqr did, not believing someone would be so outwardly rude. "Then should I could you mister Su" tx replied with a scoff.

this clearly angered the other omega "I am only two years your senior"

"Still makes you my elder" tx added.

"A-zhu, please don't fight so early in the morning" the young woman tried to calm him, pouring some tea for herself. "See, we got the tea we wanted, we can go now".

lqr had already gone back to finishing their breakfast, even the congee should be good soon.

he couldn't help the surprised noise that came from him when he felt something hot land on his back. "Are you okay!?" tx suddenly asked, hand hovering over his back unsure if he should "oups, I tripped, I am sorry," sz said, not looking apologetic in the slightest. poor little ymz next to him looked panicked for two people.

"It's alri--"

"What is happening?" came a voice from the door.

quickly, su zhu whole demeanour of changed, looking worried and sorry. "I-I accidentally spilt tea on mister Lan after tripping on myself"

This made wrh frown a little, looking worried. "It's nothing, the tea had already cooled down a bit, it shouldn't be hot enough to burn".

Still, wrh didn't look fully convinced by this. he quickly asked if anyone had taken a first aid course, only receiving negative replies.

"I did" he then stated, approaching lqr, "If you would not mind, I just want to make sure you were not burnt, it would be bad if you did and didn't correctly take care of it".

"I will have to trouble you then" lqr replied politely.

su zhu looked mad at how the situation had suddenly turned, only able to get out while greeting his teeth.

"I'll go get you a new shit!" tang xing replied before leaving too.

this only left the two of them. lqr couldn't help a little sigh to escape from him at the situation, taking off his apron and without being asked to take off his shirt.

wrh did look a bit taken aback at how he didn't hesitate in the slightest.

He didn't comment anything though, quickly getting to what he wanted to look at. like lqr had said, the tea wasn't hot enough to burn, but wrh still help running some water on his back to cool the redness.

"I smelled something good and decided to sneak in to steal some, I never expected I would be checking if someone was burned by tea this morning," wrh said after the silence seemed to be too much for him, gently drying him back.

"you thought I would let you steal from my kitchen?" lqr asked half-serious half-teasing.

"I am good at being sneaky" wrh grinned, "And I am good at convincing people".

"I a sad to inform you I will not be bribed into letting you steal breakfast before it is due, everything is ready to be served anyway, why don't you wait in the dining room?".

wrh pouted a bit at his reply. "Lan-gege isn't fair". the nickname made lqr arch a brow, to which wrh laughed. "you do not like the honorific? Then what about Renren?" he teased.

"Renren?" they heard someone giggle at the door, tang xing covering his mouth when he realised he was being watched. "I got your shirt" he smiled as he joined them, sneaking a look at his roommate back when he started to put on his shirt.

"Thank you for helping me" lqr smiled to the alpha, "But now we have breakfast to finish preparing" he said.

wrh was clearly surprised to be gently shooed away like this, yet could only chuckle as it happened, leaving so they could finish.

"I'll let you finish with the servant to bring everything, I'll go put my shirt away, with some chance I can save it".

He managed to find a maid that could help him with it, asking if she could let it soak in vinegar for him and rinse it afterwards before washing.

Because of this, he was a little bit late, even if it was only by a couple of minutes.

he was a bit surprised that mdm Wen, wrh and tx had waiting for him before eating.

"I heard you were burned this morning, are you alright?" asked the woman, to which lqr reassured her it was really nothing.

the day went by without any more problems, su zhu probably laying low after what he did and how wrh got mixt In that morning.

"I swear that su zhu" tang xing mumbled when they were back to their room, "He did it on purpose!"

"Maybe," lqr said, "but I have no proof, and I wasn't hurt in the end either".

"What's this?" tang xing asked when he saw lqr holding a bottle.

"cream for burns" lqr said, reading the little notes that came with it, a small smile appearing on his lips.

"𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘣𝘶𝘳𝘯 𝘮𝘢𝘺 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘣𝘦 𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘰𝘶𝘴, 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘪𝘵.

𝘐𝘧 𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘳𝘦𝘯 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥𝘴 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘱 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘪𝘵 𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘢𝘴𝘬 𝘮𝘦 ;)

-𝘸𝘳𝘩"

"Young master seems to like you" tang xing cooed amused.

"I think he finds it amusing to tease me" lqr remarks, "But I do need help to apply it," he noticed.

"then you can ask him~~" tang xing replied before laughing when the older omega gave him a look. "come here, I'll help you" he suggested instead.

And so lqr moved to his bed, letting him apply the cream where he had been burned by the tea. He could tell the young man still had more to say. "What's on your mind?"

"This Su Zhu" tang xing scoffed again, "he clearly did it on purpose! And he even dared to fake being Innocent when young master Wen came into the room! It's only been a couple of days and I already caught him bad-mouthing you".

"Some people are like this" lqr replied calmly, "I do not really care what he says, I've probably heard worst in my 35 years of existence."

When Tang Xing was done he got up to finish dressing for sleep, putting aside the bottle and the note. "I already know my chances here are slim, all he's doing is attacking someone who isn't really trying" he pointed out.

"You have as many chances as us!" Tang Xing quickly said, "Sure you are older... but that's okay! Wrh clearly seems to enjoy being around you!" Tang Xing tried to argue and encouraged him.

This made lqr smile a little. Truly not many would cheer so much on one Of their rivals.

"Like I said, as long as he doesn't cause harm, he can run his mouth and waste his breath on me... but do inform me if he ever causes problem for you".

"Insulting people behind their backs is still bad!"

Lqr could only agree with him, partly because he also thought so but also because he knew there was nothing he would say to change his opinion.

But it still stayed true. He would probably need to keep an eye on this young man if he were to cause more trouble later.

WIP Wednesday because Thursday is here and I spaced a day.

Tagging ... @energievie @guinguin1984 @mickeyheartian @stocious @gallavichgeek @notherenewjersey @gallavictorious @jomilky @ms-moonlight-inn @shinygalaxyperson @francesrose3 @flamingbluepanda

Sorry to not drop this Wednesday hosting a summit and days getting away from me 🤬

This is from my work Baby Barbarians , All the Pups Ian!

Omega Mickey has his mate, mama and now pregnant with triplets. He has been hormonal and big moods. His Alpha Ian is in protective mode of his Omega and pups. He will do anything to make them happy . Excerpt.

Iggy sat down with a coffee just ready to watch the show that was the protective Alpha Ian Gallagher.

” Oh my Omega , shush shush it’s ok. You are the best papa you know that. THIS ( glaring at Hal with a murderous glance) is not your fault. You did everything right. You are such a good papa, remember this morning with the vision board we were thinking about feeding schedules( a nod) that means you are providing for them, thinking of them. And no I could never be mad at you for not being able to eat. Concerned for you not mad at you. And no I could never ever be stern with them right now for needing something or craving something”

He sat down and Hal began to approach rambling about open boxes and franchise systems and containers and over amped omegas . At the same time Mickey began to snap at Hal and tell him off and argue about what makes a dip a dip.

Finally Ian slammed his fist on the table so hard it cracked. “ENOUGH!”

Everyone in the room jumped but Mickey as Mickey knew this tone and knew it was not directed at him. He was given a kiss and sent to be sat by Iggy.

Ian began to pinch and rub the bridge of his nose, marking his frustration had hit its peak. He looked up and began in a slow ultra calm voice which Mickey and Iggy knew he was anything but .

” Oh Hal, Hal , Hal. Why are the biggest fuck nuts in my life Hals? We have had a rollercoaster the past few months Hal. I was up to my neck in vision boards and wedding needs and keeping my now husband happy as I wanted everything he wanted for our wedding to happen. Now I admit and again doing better with the ones for the babies , I did not always look at the vision boards. But Hal , Hal when you love someone so deep it becomes primal , you do what they need to be happy. Even when called a prick , even when testing 63 types of cake until you feel sick , only Hal only to settle on the first cake he said he wanted. But the wedding was spectacular.It was everything fucking everything he wanted. It was wasn’t it baby ?”

Mickey grinned. “ The only thing that was off was Iggy only put 8 almonds not 9 in the tulle wraps.”

That earned him a playful light swat from Iggy who said “ Bro you had me roll 430 of those and in my defense I was stoned as hell. I promise for the shower and under penalty of death by you , mama and Mandy , I get the count right next time.”

Ian watched this exchange and turned back to Hal .

“ Thats the brother ! So they have been apart almost 8 years. Found the fucker in Ibiza then he ran. You would not think it would be hard to track down a weed dealer who has a Ukrainian last name in the party capitol of Spain. But you know what Hal as it turns out , it’s hard really fucking hard. 40,000 dollars to an agency hard . But you know why that didn’t matter Hal, at all ? That is my mates brother , he needed him period .”

Ian crumpled the tray on the table like it was a tissue.

“The rollercoaster continued Hal , not getting off this ride soon! 7 months and a quarter of a million dollars Hal. That is how long it takes to track down a ghost . Mama disappeared 17 years ago. Dead, alive , no one knew but we all thought dead. Was going for closure for my mate . Found mama and now my mother in law is going to live with us and we need to redo her room so it is everything she ever wanted too. She is an Omega , not my Omega but still an Omega who deserves to be pampered as well. I looked at paint samples with them both Hal. So so many paint samples. Did you know at one paint store there are over 140 ways to say fucking yellow. I do Hal ,I really do . This is now pummeled into my brain without permission. I know all the yellows Hal but cannot remember my computer passcode. “

” So on top of this all Hal ,we got pregnant , with triplets Hal. As pack leader do you understand what my role now is to protect my mate and three fucking three babies Hal? I worry about food and sleep and heart rates and cloth diapers. I have 37 first aid kits and 422 light fixture covers because I see something and panic and reorder it. I lose sleep when he is ill and can’t keep foods down. I know the exact blankets we use when he needs to nap and feels nauseous. I know how he needs his back rubbed after he pukes and how he needs to be held in the tub now. We have hot packs , cold packs and more to help his new aches and pains. I can see that look Hal, you think it’s over the top , it’s not Hal not really . I could shove a deflated basketball up your ass and into your stomach via you guts. Blow it up slowly so you feel it then feed you laxatives until you shit it it out your ass Hal. Think it will be wonderful? See me neither. But my mate gets to do that 3 times, three times Hal. So if try to make it easier now , I do .”

” Hal there is nothing I will not do to make my baby happy and comfortable during this pregnancy. We own an icee machine Hal, like a stop and shop store one. WE have 21 flavors ready to be added depending on what he and the pups want that day. I bought a bagel shop Hal so he never doubts he is worth all the FANCY bread in the world. Recently I bought 51% percent of a cloth diaper company so we could get more ethically sourced cloth diapers from small women owned businesses and donate to diaper banks. Shit baby I was gonna tell you that at lunch. Hal I own a commercial grade dishwasher at a nudist hotel in Belgium for fuck sake. I really dont want to buy Happy Chicken and am running out of family members to work at these. So why , you you puddly, ass middle manger who is acting on a POWER TRIP over caramel, why do you think I am going to not let my husband and babies get their way here?”

With that Ian stood up and slapped his platinum card on the counter.

“ So Hal this is what we are going to do , You are going to make him another order. You will go into that fucking storeroom and bring me that case of caramel. Charge me whatever the fuck you want for it, the food and your pie case. I will take said box , open it and let my mate dip his chicken in it. If this is the only way the babies are gonna let him eat, this is the only plan Hal. Well the only plan that does not involve me calling Aaron. You know him right, the owner. See we are in a running club. Logical guy, problem solver . Might not be thrilled to hear you could not work a logical fix to get a young omega pregnant with triplets what he needed to feed his pups. Just go get the sauce Hal.”

Ten minutes later Mickey was reassured he was not a bad papa and was happily tucking into his chicken strip while Ian held the box open so he could dip to his heart content. Mickey informed them they still needed to go to lunch because now that the babies were happy he wanted the pate and bread at the bistro too. Ian fussed and cooed, feeding Mickey and talking to the pups. Iggy just patted the arm of the shell shocked Hal .

” Man I warned you. The force of Ian Gallagher . My brother was always going to have it his way.”
