“Baby, I’m heading out!”

“W-Wait!” Comes Jay’s voice. Sunghoon pauses with his hand on the door handle and waits for the omega to run up to him. “Aren’t you forgetting something?”

Sunghoon smiles foolishly like he doesn’t know what Jay is talking about, but still leans down. The omega places his hands on the alpha’s broad shoulders and noses over his neck, realising his pheromones. Sunghoon probably thinks he’s just scenting, seeking comfort in advance for the next few hours they’ll spend in separation, Sunghoon at his job and Jay writing in his home office. But no. Jay isn’t just scenting him. 

Sure, he’s craving his alpha’s presence and smell and sometimes it’s a bit hard, staying home and waiting for Sunghoon to get back. Because when he does, he smells of others. And Jay has to make sure everyone knows he’s taken.

So he scents the alpha very intensely. He’s marking him.

Every morning, before work, Sunghoon has to stand in the doorway for at least five minutes (but sometimes nearly twenty, if Jay is feeling insane enough) and let his omega cover him in pheromones.

Sunghoon never complains. It seems like he accepts Jay’s possessive nature. But it makes Jay wonder.

Is Sunghoon a bit possessive as well?

Because, sure, Jay doesn’t have as much contact with other people as the alpha. It’s not something he was forced into, no. It just comes with his job.

He was always good at making up stories and putting them into words, so it wasn’t a surprise to anyone when after taking a creative writing class back in college, he decided to try writing his own book.

He ended up publishing just a year later. And since then, he’s been stuck home (or sometimes at random coffee shops) clicking away on his laptop.

He does enjoy it. He takes breaks whenever he needs to. When Sunghoon announces he will be having a few days off and they could go on a trip, Jay can just book the plane tickets and not worry about work.

But whenever Jay does go out, like to meetings or the very occasional work events with publishers and other authors, Sunghoon never seems to mind. He helps Jay pick out his outfit and style his hair and then drives him there and picks him up a few hours later when Jay is whiny and clingy because of the alcohol he forced himself to drink to calm down his social anxiety. And even when Jay gets in the car smelling like other people, like the last time when that female alpha had to get really close to be able to hear Jay over the noise and made him a bit dizzy with her scent, Sunghoon just patted his thigh and started the car. And when they got back and Jay declared he was too tired to shower, Sunghoon didn’t mind.

And they’ve been together for so long already. Jay eyes Jungwon’s mating bite with envy each time he sees the younger omega. The worst part is he and Heeseung started dating even later than Jay and Sunghoon.

Jay knows Sunghoon loves him. He has no reason to doubt it, but he still wonders, why is Sunghoon not asking for us to mate?

The thought is a constant in his mind. But it becomes even more agitating when Sunghoon is put in charge of a new project and one of his team members is a young omega.

Jay usually doesn’t have to worry about Sunghoon’s colleagues, because they’re mostly older and mated, but this Minjoon or whatever his name is is not, and it’s messing with Jay’s head.

So much so that when Sunghoon comes back home after the first day of working on the project, stinking of that omega, Jay is unable to focus on his writing. Sunghoon tells him we got our own room, our team. But because it’s my first time being the leader it’s small, it gets cramped with everyone working together, we were squished shoulder to shoulder.

Jay is proud of him. He is. But after meeting Minjoon one day when he was picking up Sunghoon from work so they could go buy a gift for his mother’s birthday, Jay can’t function.

Minjoon is in his first year working under the company and he’s from a different department than Sunghoon, so it makes sense that Jay hasn’t seen him before.

But the omega is young and, even in Jay’s jealous eyes, pretty. And he seems to like Sunghoon, even look up to him. That’s great. Sunghoon is good at his job, it’s amazing for him to be getting the recognition he deserves.

But whatever is brewing in Minjoon’s head isn’t purely platonic and Jay clocks it immediately. 

The way the younger omega’s eyes shine while looking at the alpha, how he seems to always want to be as close to Sunghoon as socially acceptable despite their status as coworkers. Jay sees it because he was like this once. Back when he and Sunghoon were just getting to know each other, when Heeseung introduced him to the alpha back in university.

So now Jay is on a mission.

He has to make sure everyone knows Sunghoon is his.

The excessive scenting doesn’t seem to work, as Jay realizes just a few days later. Nor does staying glued to Sunghoon’s side when they go together to his work dinner or when they randomly run into Minjoon in the grocery store.

“Sunghoon-ssi, your idea was just amazing! I can’t believe you thought of that. You saved us at least a few days of work.” Minjoon gushes.

Sunghoon nods and thanks him, saying the work Minjoon did was much more valuable. Jay’s ever humble alpha.

Jay eyes the contents of Minjoon’s basket. It’s full of pre-made frozen food and instant noodles. It’s clear he’s young and probably living away from his parents for the first time, but can he really not cook at all?

And an omega like that wants to steal his alpha?

Jay laughs internally. Sunghoon loves his cooking. He always makes sure to have dinner done before the alpha gets back home. He prepares the meat to Sunghoon’s liking.

But that thought, that an alpha like Sunghoon needs his partner to take care of him, doesn’t seem to occur to Minjoon. The omega’s gaze strays from Sunghoon’s face to his arm, muscles bulging from the weight of their basket. Jay has just put a few bottles of milk and a big bag of rice there and offered to grab a shopping cart so that Sunghoon wouldn’t have to carry so much, but the alpha quickly reassured him.

“I don’t go to the gym for nothing, baby.”

And Jay supposes that’s true. Sunghoon’s always been sporty, but recently his muscles grew twice their size in just a few months and Jay knows it’s a result of the alpha’s hard work and the omega’s cooking, always making sure to include as much protein as possible.

However, he doesn’t appreciate other people staring at what’s his to look at.

What’s the fun in knowing the main reason Sunghoon goes so hard in the gym is to be able to lift Jay up and fuck him against a wall if another omega is probably imagining a similar scenario?

Enough.

“It’s so nice seeing you again Minjoon-ssi, but I’m afraid we have to go. We still have to pick out some nice meat for my Sunghoonie.” Jay interrupts politely, making sure to emphasize the my.

“Ah, of course!” Minjoon giggles and gives Sunghoon another unnecessary glance, followed by a smile. “Great seeing you too, Jay-ssi. I’ll see you at work on Monday, Sunghoon-ssi.” He says and scurries off, cheeks dusted pink.

Jay makes Sunghoon carry all of their bags back to the car. It’s not like the walk is long, but he usually persuades Sunghoon to let him carry the lightest one. Today, he doesn’t care.

Sunghoon doesn’t seem to catch onto his bad mood and acts like always. He puts on their playlist in the car and hums happily. He asks Jay what movie they’re watching tonight.

Jay gives him half-assed answers and stares out the window.

By nightfall, he has a plan.

Minjoon might be oblivious. He might think it’s okay to drool over a taken alpha. So what if they’re not mated? They’ve been dating for almost seven years.

But surely, surely he’ll give up if Sunghoon’s omega is pregnant?

Over the next few weeks, Jay tries to get Sunghoon to mate him. He welcomes the alpha home wearing a sheer, lacy babydoll dress. He goes to sleep in the alpha’s oversized shirt and a tiny thong. He wears his almost see-through pants and bends over the counter when he hears Sunghoon coming into the kitchen. Did he mention he quits wearing underwear at home?

But Sunghoon doesn’t seem to see the signs. When he notices the omega going commando, his small cock hard and leaking, poking into the alpha’s stomach when Jay seats himself on Sunghoon’s lap, he makes Jay come and then fucks him.

“What is this, baby? Were you horny for alpha?”

He fucks him a lot.

But he never tries biting anywhere close to Jay’s scent gland.

The obscene amount of fucking they do is for nothing, since Jay still hasn’t been allowed to come off his suppressants.

“Me and my partner want to have a baby, doctor. As soon as—”

But Jay has been on heat suppressants since he presented. Like most omegas. And since he can’t get pregnant without being in heat, he desperately wants to get off them.

But his doctor wakes him up and tells him he can’t just stop taking them. He’s been dependent on them for over ten years. Sure, missing a few days would be fine. But that won’t induce his heat right away.

So Jay is forced to come to the hospital weekly so the doctors can run various tests on him and make sure he won’t die if he stops taking the damn pills.

Why is it so hard to just fucking get pregnant in this economy? Isn’t Korea experiencing a low birth rate?

Jay is thankful for Sunghoon’s job keeping him busy for most of the day during the week. The alpha doesn’t know about his frequent hospital visits and hence, surely won’t suspect anything.

He nearly jumps from joy when the doctor informs him that everything is alright with his hormones and besides feeling a bit tired for the first week or so, he should be fine.

Waiting for his heat to come back is testing Jay’s patience. But he also makes a few observations.

His scent seems to be more prominent like this. Sunghoon starts noticing it after just a few days. Jay is still a bit cranky at this point. He wants to nap but it’s too hot and when he turns on the AC, he’s suddenly freezing. The house smells of the lunch they just finished eating, and even though it was one of Jay’s favorite meals, he wants to vomit.

Sunghoon for once notices his bad mood.

“Are you okay, baby?”

“Yeah, just a bit tired. And nauseous.” Jay grumbles.

“Maybe we should call the doctor?”

Jay’s eyes shoot open.

“N-No, it’s fine! I already talked to him. It’s just the weather and the fact that I’ve been stressing about my new novel.” That is true.

Jay’s sudden obsession with getting mated and pregnant might have stirred his attention a tiny bit away from work. But it’s okay! The deadline is still far away. And his publisher is satisfied with the numbers his previous book is doing, so they shouldn’t mind a slight delay.

Jay will go back to being fully focused on writing once he knows he has Sunghoon’s bite mark on his neck and child growing inside his womb.

“Do you wanna cuddle?” The alpha asks after a minute. He’s drawing shapes on Jay’s back, the omega laying on his front. The AC is back to being off, so the blanket ended up kicked off and on the carpeted floor.

“Mhm.” Jay just mumbles and scoots on the couch, making space for Sunghoon.

The alpha beams and makes himself comfortable next to Jay, putting one of his arms over the omega’s waist and the other on his head, fingers running through the hair.

Jay hums and curls a fist around Sunghoon’s tshirt. He hooks his leg over the alpha’s, his already tiny shorts exposing even more skin.

Glued together like this, Jay is almost able to fall asleep.

Almost, because just as his breathing starts to even out, Sunghoon begins shifting.

“W-What?” Jay mumbles sleepily. He’s confused and his eyes are barely opening.

Sunghoon moves so that his nose touches Jay’s neck. It shifts their position a little bit, but Jay doesn’t have it in him to complain now.

The alpha inhales sharply. “Huh.”

“What?” Jay repeats.

Sunghoon just shakes his head and pets Jay’s head again. “Nothing, just— Your scent is stronger.”

“Mhm.” Jay hums. “Is it nice?”

Sunghoon looks up at him, eyebrows furrowed. “Of course it’s nice. I told you I loved your scent even before we started dating.”

Jay just laughs.

“Don’t even ask stupid questions like that, baby.”

The scent thing seems to be seriously bothering Sunghoon.

“You should take it easy on the scenting.”

Jay turns around, knife in hand. “What did you just say?”

“N-Not like that!” Sunghoon quickly adds. Jay puts down the knife and the alpha breathes out. “It’s just— Someone from another department came over today and after we were done talking, he said I didn’t look like a typical omega. And then proceeded to ask if I was off suppressants and if my heat was close.”

Jay pouts. “So you don’t like my scent.”

“But I do!”

Jay laughs as the alpha reassures him that his scent is his absolute favorite in the whole world, even above vanilla lattes and tiramisu and freshly grilled pork.

Jay grins the whole time. Hearing Sunghoon waxing poetry about this scent is nice, sure. But what’s the best is knowing his heat is approaching.

It’s actually close.

Since Sunghoon is not aware of the preparations that should be done before Jay’s heat starts, or even that such an event will occur in their nearest future, the omega takes it upon himself to do everything.

He stocks up their pantry and cooks in advance. He calls his mom to ask her if she would mind dropping off a hot meal at least once, because god knows if Sunghoon will be even able to heat anything up once Jay pounces on him.

He makes sure all their spare sheets are clean and ready to be used if they need a change. He buys an obscene amount of wet wipes and places them all around the house. His first and only heat might’ve been a while ago, but he still remembers how gross and sticky he felt in those rare moments of consciousness. Just in case they don’t have time to shower, the wipes will help them, even if just a bit.

More than a month into going off the pills, he starts feeling an inhumane urge to nest. He knows it’s really close when a few hours later his alpha comes back and finds him buried under a pile of unwashed laundry. Because when Sunghoon gets on the bed as well to cuddle him (he’s not even complaining about the dirty clothes! Jay really must smell off), the omega almost starts crying and ripping the sheets because Sunghoon smells wrong.

He doesn’t smell like himself and he doesn’t smell like home and he doesn’t smell like Jay. He smells like that dumb omega.

“Go shower! Right now!” Jay cries out.

Sunghoon eyes him with uncertainty. “Did I sweat too much today?”

“No, it’s the— You smell of another omega.” Jay sobs. Sunghoon goes to hug him, but then realizes his mistake. His own scent, subsided from the smell neutralizer he uses before work and other people’s scents clinging to him, sours. Jay can tell.

“Okay. I’m going, okay? Just stop crying, baby.” Sunghoon sounds like he’s begging. “Hey, do you want to wear my hoodie?” He asks. Jay calms down for long enough to nod. “It’s here, on the chair. I won’t touch it. Just put it on and wait for me, okay? I’ll be right back.”

Jay just sniffs. He wills himself to get up, forcing some of the clothes he layered on the bed to fall to the floor. He grabs Sunghoon’s hoodie, the one the alpha wore the day before. It’s clean, smells of Sunghoon and only Sunghoon.

The omega pulls it on, lays on his side and brings his knees closer to his chest. He’s overheating in the hoodie, but he doesn’t make a move to pull it off. It does a great job of erasing whatever was left of that omega’s scent.

Jay doesn’t want to think about him.

He’s too hot and his stomach is cramping. He pulls the hoodie up, exposing his stomach. He looks at the flat, soft flesh, the unmarked skin.

He splays his hand over it, rubs once and then twice. “You’ll be here soon, right aegi?”

He feels slightly creepy, talking to a child that hasn’t even been yet conceived.

He started doubting himself, even while he was still in the process of getting his hormones checked. Is he really ready for a child? Isn’t it irresponsible of him to force himself into a heat? Especially since Sunghoon is not even aware of it all?

Maybe it would be better to just talk to the alpha. To tell Sunghoon about how self conscious he gets whenever unmated omegas approach his alpha. When he comes back home smelling of them.

But Jay has always wanted to be a mother. He had a good example growing up.

And Sunghoon… Even though the alpha seems to be oblivious to Jay’s desire to mate, has previously told him he wants kids. And they are financially stable. And in love.

Jay’s just trying to make himself feel better because his heat is about to start and there’s no turning back at this point.

His thoughts are interrupted by a phone notification going off. He looks at the bedside table and it’s Sunghoon’s phone. The alpha must’ve put it there on autopilot.

Jay, with the last bits of his energy, grabs the device and tries to mute it but then another notification lights up the screen.

And he trusts Sunghoon. He’s not going to look through the alpha’s phone…

team member ha minjoon sunghoon-ssi sorry to bother you after work hours, but i had a great time talking to you on our way out

team member ha minjoon maybe we could grab dinner this weekend and continue? or maybe drinks? :)

This whore.

Jay’s past the point of embarrassment. He opens the chat, types out a message and blocks the number.

sunghoon he’s fucking mated you whore

Sunghoon comes back a few minutes later, hair dripping water and a towel around his waist.

Jay can even smell himself (which doesn’t happen too often), so he knows it must hit the alpha right in the face.

An aroused, fertile omega.

“Jay-ah? Baby?”

The omega just hums in response. His face is half hidden by Sunghoon’s hoodie.

“I’ve been worrying about you recently. You smell stronger than ever. And now… Are you horny?” Sunghoon asks. He seems to be utterly confused by Jay’s state. “Why did you suddenly want to try nesting? You’ve never done it before.”

“Yeah, b-but, alpha—” Jay rasps out and fuck. He can feel his control slipping. He has never called Sunghoon alpha, not even when he was in a weird headspace from getting fucked too long.

“Alpha? Jay-ah, seriously, what’s going on?” Sunghoon sits on the edge of the bed. He gave up trying to dress himself.

And Jay can tell the alpha is smelling him. Sunghoon’s shower has washed off whatever was left of his scent neutralizer and he’s starting to smell aroused as well, matching Jay’s state.

“Must I tell you? Can’t you smell it yourself? I’m in heat.” The omega barks out. He’s done. His stomach is still cramping and he starts feeling wetness between his legs. The urge to pull off his pants and stick anything inside his hole is getting overwhelming.

Sunghoon nearly jumps at his tone and the words, the meaning behind them. “B-But how?”

“I don’t know.” Jay whines. A lie. “But I need you. Now, please, alpha.”

“I— Okay, baby.” He opens a drawer in their bedside table. “We’re out of condoms.” They’re not. Jay hid them all. Even the ones pushed between couch cushions. “It’s okay. I’ll just blow and finger you, yeah? Alpha will make you come.”

And Jay almost agrees because he likes the alpha’s mouth on his small cock, his long fingers in his hole. But this means straying away from the plan.

They have a few days to make Jay pregnant, sure. But they should start right away. Just to be safe.

“N-No, please. Need your knot.” Jay whines and Sunghoon’s eyebrows furrow. Fuck, he looks so hot like this, like he’s angry. Jay feels more slick leaking out of him.

That’s the thing. Alphas can’t knot, unless they’re in rut or fucking an omega in heat. And Sunghoon hasn’t experienced a normal rut since his presentation. Just like Jay hasn’t ever had a proper heat. So Sunghoon has never knotted anyone. Jay has never taken a knot.

It’s not a conversation they’ve ever had. Jay taking Sunghoon’s knot, that is.

“Will it even— I mean, are you sure you’re in heat?”

“Yeah!” Jay cries out. “So sure. I’m like, drenched, just by looking at your chest and smelling you.” He gives the alpha a pointed look. “Trust me, Sunghoon-ah. I know.”

“Okay, okay. Fuck.”

Sunghoon stands up hurriedly, pulls off the towel covering his waist and quickly runs it over his head, catching most of the water still dripping from it.

From where Jay is laying, he has a great view of the alpha’s cock. It’s already begun to harden. That’s all just because of his smell.

“So, just to make sure. You’ll be fine without—”

“Yes. And whatever I ask for, just give it to me, okay? I trust you.”

Sunghoon nods and helps Jay move towards the middle of the bed. They have to push some of the clothes around to fit.

Jay eyes the alpha as he settles over him.

“You wanna take the hoodie off, baby? Aren’t you feeling hot?” Sunghoon asks while pulling down Jay’s pants and underwear. He throws them on the floor next to his wet towel. Jay doesn’t have it in himself to make the alpha hang it up to dry.

“Not yet. Feels nice wearing it.” Jay purrs. He is slightly overheating, but the hoodie serves as a nice cocoon and allows him to hide if he starts feeling too embarrassed.

Like now, because his alpha is looming over him, cock hard and leaking, wet hair making him look even sexier than normally.

But Jay brought this upon himself, didn’t he? They’ve been together for years and had sex countless times, but this is the first time he truly feels so exposed, so overwhelmed. And he knows he and Sunghoon will be even more bonded after this.

Not just because of the mating and the pregnancy, but because he’s in such a vulnerable state and he’s trusting Sunghoon to be close, to take care of him.

Sunghoon takes in a deep breath and it’s probably meant to calm him, but ends up with him inhaling a huge amount of Jay’s pheromones at once. “Baby. You smell so—”

“D’you like it?” Jay asks. He sounds desperate, like needs Sunghoon’s validation. As if his alpha hasn’t told him countless times by now just how much he loves his scent. But the heat is messing with his head, making him unsure. One wrong look from Sunghoon and Jay would assume the alpha doesn’t love him anymore.

“Love it, baby. Smells so good, need you right here.” Sunghoon growls and leans down. One of his hands is pushed under the oversized hoodie Jay’s wearing, splaying over the omega’s waist, squeezing it. The other one grabs the side of the omega’s neck while his face gets closer, inhaling the sweet scent straight from the source.

“Alpha smells good too.” Jay whines and he’s not just saying it. Sunghoon’s smell has gotten stronger as well, more dominant, nearly taking away all Jay’s ability to think.

“Yeah? It’s because of you. Fuck, your heat smell… It’s unreal. It’s making me feel like I’m in rut.”

And Jay stops to think about it. Sunghoon is such an attentive partner and most of the time, he makes sure to first satisfy Jay before getting himself off. If Jay doesn’t feel like penetration is the right choice for him that day and ends up too tired after coming from Sunghoon’s mouth, the alpha will just settle for jerking off while looking at him. No complaints.

But if Sunghoon were in a rut… Would he want to take more? Would he force Jay to take it? Fuck him through a few orgasms while chasing his own?

“Alpha.” Jay just gasps.

Sunghoon got bored with just smelling him and now he’s leaving kisses on Jay’s neck, letting his teeth bite a bit once in a while. They’re small bites and he’s avoiding Jay’s scent gland. 

The omega grabs him by the hair and forces him to move his head, making the alpha’s lips touch it.

“Here, alpha. Bite here.” Jay whines.

Sunghoon pulls away and catches his gaze. The alpha’s eyes look dazed, like he’s not fully himself. Jay feels like he’s not inside his body either.

“You want me to bite you? To— to mate you?” 

And Sunghoon looks so confused, like he never expected Jay, the omega he’s been dating since college, the omega who scents him each time he goes out, to want to get mated.

“Don’t act surprised.” Jay groans. He’s getting annoyed. Why is his alpha so oblivious?

“But that’s— We haven’t really talked about—”

“Do you want to break up?” Jay spits out.

Sunghoon’s eyes widen. He grabs Jay’s face with both hands. “Never, baby.”

“So you want us to be together?” Jay prods and the alpha nods. “Forever?” Another nod. “That’s why, alpha. I want to be yours. I want you to be mine. Forever. I don’t want to have to worry about someone coming and stealing you away from me.”

“I wouldn’t let them. I would never leave you.” Sunghoon whispers.

Jay has to blink away the tears.

“Then why didn’t you bite me earlier? Why did I have to make myself go into heat to finally get this?” One tear falls and then he’s sobbing.

“You— So that’s why you’ve been going to the hospital so much?” Sunghoon asks.

Jay gasps. “You knew?”

“They called me once. Said you were late for your appointment and weren’t picking up. I asked what appointment? but they said it was just your weekly check-up and I got even more confused but they hung up before I could ask more questions.”

“Oh. I was late once… My phone died and there was traffic so…”

Sunghoon sighs. “So your heat started because you stopped taking your suppressants?” 

Jay looks away. “I figured… If I got pregnant—”

“Pregnant?”

Jay sighs. “Just— Let me finish, okay?” He can’t believe he’s having this conversation while Sunghoon is butt ass naked, Jay’s only wearing a hoodie and there’s slick continuously leaking out of his hole. “I wouldn’t do it if it wasn’t safe and if I weren’t ready, of course. I talked to my doctor. I had weekly tests done to make sure everything was okay with my hormones. I stopped taking the pills about a month ago.”

“But why? Why did you think of pregnancy of all things?”

“I just— This omega at your work—”

“Minjoon-ssi?”

Jay nods. “He texted you even now. He has a crush on you. I could tell right away. He knew we were together, but he probably thought there was still a way since we weren’t mated.” Jay explains.

Sunghoon hums. He wipes the tears away from Jay’s eyes. “But that… I mean, I don’t want to sound mean. But if it was just Minjoon-ssi that bothered you, why did you go this far?”

“That’s the thing. It’s not just him. I’ve felt like this since we started dating. But the more time passed, the more I started thinking about why you wouldn’t just mate me… I thought there was something wrong with me, that I was too needy…”

“Oh, baby.” Sunghoon murmurs. He leans down to lay a soft kiss on Jay’s lips. It’s salty from the omega’s tears. “I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. I just— You were always so strong and okay with being by yourself, even back when we were in college. So I thought, surely an omega like you wouldn’t like their alpha initiating a mating. You always just took whatever you wanted. That’s why… Maybe I was a coward. Maybe I feared that one day you would wake up and realize you don’t really need me. And if I brought up mating, I would just make that realization come sooner.”

Jay’s full-on sobbing now. His dumb alpha. His dumb, lovely, considerate alpha.

“I've wanted to get mated to you since our first date.” The omega admits. “I’ve always been sensitive to scents, but yours never felt bad to me. And then you were just so— So you. So kind and loving and you did everything I asked for and I started wondering when is he going to take something from me? But you never did. Not even when I wanted you to.”

Sunghoon looks like he’s in pain, like having to watch Jay cry hurts him physically. “I’m sorry, fuck, I’m sorry baby.”

“If you’re truly sorry, bite me now. Make up for the lost years.”

“I will, I will, baby. Just— I should go and buy condoms—”

“I want to be pregnant. I do. So if you’d like to raise a pup with me…” Jay trails off. “But if you don’t, I lied. We have condoms. I hid them. So if you feel like we’re not ready for that step—”

“Baby.” Sunghoon breathes out. “Fuck, Jay-ah. Are you kidding me? I’ve never— I don’t think I’ve ever wanted anything more in my life. Besides getting close to you, of course. But if you— If you’re sure— I mean, you’ll be the one carrying it, so—”

“I am sure.” 

Sunghoon takes a deep breath and nods. His gaze stays focused on Jay. “So— Fuck, we’re really doing this.”

“We are.” Jay whispers. “If you want to.”

“I do— I do. So much, baby. I’m so happy I could cry.”

“Don’t cry, alpha.” Jay groans because he’s close to crying again, but this time out of frustration. “I still need you to knot me.”

“Yeah. I will.” The alpha says and lets one of his hands trail down Jay’s body, over the oversized hoodie and finally onto exposed skin. “You’ll look really pretty pregnant, you know?”

Fuck. Jay’s not going to survive this.

“I can’t wait for the bump to show. And won’t your tits grow too?” He asks and his fingers touch the nipple. Between the stimulation, looking at Sunghoon’s ever-handsome face and having the alpha’s huge arm flexing right in front of Jay’s eyes, the omega already feels overwhelmed. “You’ll be so cute, baby. Every single alpha will want you… But even then, they’ll know you're taken, right? They’ll be able to smell me, right? See my bite on your pretty neck?”

“Yes.” Jay whines. “Alpha— Please.”

“Sorry, baby. I got too ahead of myself. Since I want to see you pregnant, we first have to make the pup, hm? Alpha has to put a baby in you, right?” He hums and Jay just nods helplessly, eyes shining with more tears.

Sunghoon wastes no time before grabbing the lube and adding it to the already overwhelming wetness pooling between Jay’s legs. But the alpha has always liked Jay dripping so it’s no surprise that even the heat-induced self-lubrication is not enough for him.

“Alpha… It’s cold…”

“My cock will warm you up in no time, baby.”

Jay would normally scoff at the line but he’s not himself right now, because it just makes him whine louder instead.

“In— In, alpha. Put it in. Fuck me full of you.”

Sunghoon slicks up his own cock and toys with the head of Jay’s at the same time, smearing the precome and making Jay’s hole leak even more slick.

“I love your tiny useless cock, baby.” Sunghoon hums, running his ringers over the small length. “It’s always getting so hard and trying it’s best, hm? But there’s no use for that. Not like you’d fuck anyone with it.” And he’s wrong, so wrong, and he knows it. Knows that Jay had a brief phase of fucking omegas back in college, that he used to top.

But Jay supposes that now the alpha is right. He’s not going to fuck anyone. He doesn’t feel the desire to, hasn’t felt in a while.

He’ll just let his alpha do all the work.

Sunghoon finally takes mercy on him and lines up his cock to Jay’s hole, pushing it in bit by bit. He’s big, bigger than other alpha’s Jay has been with. And now there’s the added possibility of a knot appearing, which will make the cock even larger, stretching Jay to the limits.

Jay keeps whining each time Sunghoon pushes more of his length in, which is weird, because they’ve been having sex a lot and he surely should be used to the alpha’s size after the few years they’ve spent together, right?

But he supposes it’s the heat making him tighter, forcing him to clench on the alpha’s cock.

“Relax, baby.” Sunghoon murmurs and rubs Jay’s waist. His face is scrunched up in a frown and Jay knows it must feel good for him, but he still encourages the omega to stop tightening around him.

“I’ll be okay, alpha. Don’t stop.” Jay whines.

Sunghoon groans. “Fuck, you might have to start calling me that each time we have sex, even after your heat ends. You sound so pretty asking for alpha.”

“I-I will.” Jay hiccups.

The alpha hums above him and finally bottoms out. His hips are snug against Jay’s.

“Fuck.” Sunghoon hisses and adjusts his position. His arms are starting to give out. “How are you so tight, baby?”

“Don’t know.” Jay whines and unconsciously moves his hips, trying to make the alpha fuck him. “I’m confused. Shouldn’t the heat make it– easier to have sex?”

“Well, this is making things easier for me. I feel like I’ll come right away.”

“Good. Do that.”

Sunghoon laughs at the omega’s sassy remark. “Shouldn’t I make you come first, hm? Once the knot takes, we'll be stuck together for some time.” 

“‘S okay.” Jay hums. “As long as alpha comes in me.”

“Still, baby. Let me focus on you for now.”

And he does, because even though Jay just told him he wants the alpha to take, his first instinct is always to give.

He fucks into the omega slowly, holding back from his own release, but making sure to hit Jay’s prostate each time. He spits on his hand and strokes the omega’s cock until it turns red and finally, with Jay’s high whine, spurts white come.

“Just like that.” Sunghoon praises. He licks the omega’s release from his fingers and then leans down for a kiss. Jay laps up the come from his alpha’s mouth like it’s his last meal. “Feeling good?”

“Yeah. Now it’s alpha’s turn.” Jay hums and grips Sunghoon’s arm, the one that now moved to his neck. “Don’t forget to bite.”

Sunghoon picks up a steady rhythm. He fucks into Jay, chasing his own pleasure, all while nosing at the omega’s scent gland.

“Smells so good, baby. How am I supposed to survive with you smelling like this for the next few days?”

“J-Just stay close to me.” Jay whines and pulls in the alpha for a kiss.

The kiss is sloppy, like they’re drunk. Sunghoon licks into Jay’s mouth, letting their shared spit run down their chins. His hips start moving at a frantic pace and Jay knows it’s close, so he grabs the back of the alpha’s head by the hair and forces his mouth down.

Sunghoon grunts lowly in the back of his throat and his hips stop. Jay feels hot wetness filling him up and then something big.

“Fuck, the knot feels like a plug.” He whispers but he doesn’t get the answer because just then, the alpha finally bares his teeth and bites into his neck.

Jay moans. It feels better than an orgasm. He can feel the blood running down his neck, the alpha’s tongue lapping it up.

“Are you okay? Does it hurt?” Sunghoon asks after pulling away. His lips are crimson and there’s blood on his teeth, his long fangs shining in the light.

Jay shakes his head. “I’m fine. I love you.” He whispers and kisses the alpha, the taste of his come long gone, now replaced with the metallic ting of blood.

He’s whining all through it, he knows. But he feels so good. His alpha’s knot is deep inside him, keeping the come from running out. Making sure it takes.

Sunghoon pulls back and smiles at Jay’s dazed state. “Now you, omega. Bite your alpha.”

And Jay does. He makes sure to make the bite as big as possible, so that even after it heals, everyone will see what he’s capable of. What he’d do to make his alpha stay.

“So, there’s something I wanted to tell you guys. I meant to reveal this sooner but I figured it’d be better with both of us here.” Sunghoon speaks up. His hand tightens around Jay’s waist. The omega looks up at his handsome mate and lets his eyes rest on the mating mark.

“It’s kind of big for an alpha.” Jungwon said when the four of them met up after Jay’s heat ended.

“Well, Jay did it, so I’m not surprised.” Heeseung laughed and almost got smacked.

“We’re going to have a pup!” Sunghoon says, a huge smile on his face.

What follows is a string of congratulations and we’re so happy for you guys and you’ll be amazing parents and the baby will be beautiful with a mommy and daddy like you. Jay welcomes it all with a flush on his cheeks and a hand on his bump.

Once most of Sunghoon’s colleagues have spoken to them, the alpha urges him to sit down. He settles on the other seat and forces food into Jay’s hands, even going as far as feeding him. You need to eat well for our pup.

“Hey, have you seen Minjoon-ssi?” Sunghoon whispers to Jay after looking around the room. 

The omega shrugs. “He left right after our announcement.”

“Really? He’s not one to miss out on work events.”

Jay gives him a pointed look. He learned to control his jealousy and knows the alpha is just concerned for his colleague, but how can he be so oblivious? “I think he finally got it.”

“Got what?”

“That you’re mine.”
