Uea tapped the plastic lid of his coffee cup as he stared impatiently at his phone. Over an hour had passed and Pock still hadn’t gotten back to him about coming over that evening.

Uea’s seasonal heat was about to flare up, and he wanted to be ready. Like all Omegas around that time of their season, he could feel the burn of it tingling just under the surface of his skin. The urge to mate, the neediness, it was already affecting his concentration at work.

Uea had been seeing Pock for a few months now and things were going pretty well—which was saying something considering Uea’s relationship track record. Since Pock was an Alpha, he had offered to help take care of Uea this season.

Uea smiled to himself, remembering the earnest way Pock stared at him when he’d said that. He was so glad he’d get to spend his heat with a boyfriend for once. For his last few seasonal heats, he’d been going to one of the Omega Clinics in the city. The Alphas on staff at those facilities specialized in tending to Omegas in heat, but everything at Omega Clinics tended to be more efficient than erotic.

Uea grimaced at the thought. The Omega Clinic he went to during his last heat was so sterile he could smell the bleach they used to clean everywhere. Worse, the Heat Alphas who worked as specialists at the clinics were always so surgical with how they handled Omegas in their care. They just pulled their cocks in and out like they had a fucking metronome helping them keep their boring rhythm. In and out, quick and efficient, that was their job. Might as well just use a fucking machine.

Uea tutted. Any Alpha he usually took to his bed had to be slow and methodical, he liked it when they surprised him too. Ideally, he had a big Alpha between his legs, teasing him with even thrusts before suddenly picking up the pace, gripping his hips hard, and…

“Hey, Uae.”

That familiar flirty drawl knocked Uea out of his fantasies. He scowled and his mood soured immediately.

King appeared in all his handsome, tanned, square-jawed, Alpha glory. Despite these excellent qualities, King always managed to have Uea rolling his eyes.

He stood over Uea, leaning forward a bit with a flirty smile on his face. His scent immediately filled Uea’s senses because King, the asshole, tended to accent his natural scent with spicy cologne instead of wearing the blockers that most decent people wore in shared office spaces.

Uea wanted to throw up, but he just sneered at the Alpha a little. It was his regular greeting; King had to be used to it by now.

“Are you waiting for someone? Please say it’s me.” King shot him a wink.

If Uea’s eyes could roll any further back in his head they would. As usual, King ignored every single go-away vibe he was putting out into the world. He pressed into Uea space and flashed his pretty playboy smile.

“I’m not someone who waits for anything,” Uea snapped back at him. He stood suddenly and marched away, leaving King pouting behind him in the coffee shop.

King had a habit of flirting with anything that moved. Omegas, Betas, hell, Uea honestly wouldn’t be surprised to see him flirting with other Alphas. King clearly just wanted in everyone’s pants.

Uea had been in some pretty red-flag relationships, but even he wasn’t going there with King.

Not ever. No way.

~*~αβΩ~*~

When Uea got back to his desk, he found Jade standing there waiting for him. Pouty as ever, his best friend immediately jutted out his bottom lip.

“Uea,” Jade whined. “Do you have time? The boss just gave me a new task and he wants it on his desk tomorrow morning. I need help.”

Uea sighed, but he saw an opportunity. “Fine, I’ll help you, but on one condition.”

Jade nodded vigorously, his glasses nearly bouncing off his cute little nose. “Name it!”

“Next time I get assigned to work with King, you’re going to volunteer to swap with me.”

“What? You don’t like working on projects with King?”

“I do not.”

Jade cringed. “Uea, you’re so blunt.”

“I’m just being honest,” Uea said with a shrug.

“Okay. Okay. I have no problem swapping. We’ll trade projects if you two have to pair up. Deal?”

“Deal.”

“Great!” Jade cheered. “I like working with King and I get help! So it’s a win-win for me all around! Your current project is with King though, isn’t it?”

Uea sighed. “Yes. But it’s fine. I sorted out the work so we can do our tasks separately then compile it all before it’s due.”

“That’s a good plan! I guess. If the plan is to limit the time you have to work together.” Jade pouted. “King’s not so bad though. You’re both my friends and I wish you two could get along better.”

Uea forced down a groan, but he couldn’t help rolling his eyes again. Keen to stop talking about King, he changed the subject. “Just show me what you need help with, hm?”

“Okay!”

~*~αβΩ~*~

Uea pulled a bit of OT with Jade to get his task done. To celebrate, the two of them went out for dinner after. They had a favorite place just up the street from their office. It was Jade’s treat, of course, since Uea had helped him meet his deadline.

Uea slurped up the noodles he’d ordered, starving since he’d only had coffee for lunch. After a few minutes chatting and eating, Jade got quiet. Uea glanced up to see his best friend’s face squish into a cute, but vaguely irritated expression.

“What’s wrong?” Uea asked as soon as he’d finished swallowing a mouthful.

“Something smells funny. Did you order a sweet noodle soup or something?”

Uea glanced down at his bowl and shook his head. “It’s just regular chicken. What would smell swee…” he trailed off. “Oh.”

Jade’s expression shifted to shock. “Oh? What? Is that your scent?”

Uea pulled out his phone and sighed. Still no text from Pock. With a soft tut, he turned back to Jade. “My heat is coming on. I was hoping it would hit over the long weekend, but I think I’ll have to call in sick starting tomorrow.”

Jade nodded his head vigorously. “You should. If I can smell it already, it’s probably gonna hit hard sometime tonight. Do you need a ride home?”

“I’ll be fine to drive, but let’s head out now.”

Again, Jade’s head bobbed as he hummed his agreement. They left the restaurant and said their goodbyes in the parking garage.

Instead of heading home, Uea drove straight to Pock’s apartment. He still hadn’t been able to reach the Alpha, but they had already planned to spend the long weekend together for Uea’s heat. Turning up a day early wouldn’t be such a surprise. Everyone knew Omegan heats sometimes came on a little more suddenly than expected.

Uea knocked on Pock's door and waited. He smiled when footsteps sounded from the other side of the thin wood, but that smile immediately dropped from his lips as soon as the door opened. An unfamiliar face peered out at him. Instead of Pock, someone else answered the door…and he was clearly an Omega.

“Can I help you?” the other Omega asked. His dark gazed scanned Uea curiously.

“I—I’m looking for Pock. Who are you?” Uea stammered.

The other Omega frowned. “I’m Pock’s boyfriend.”

“Oh.” Uea schooled his features, but inside he felt his heart sink into his stomach.

“Are you okay? Your scent is really strong, are you going into heat? Why did you come here?”

The barrage of questions from the other Omega left Uea gaping like a fish out of water. He didn’t get the chance to answer before another set of footsteps sounded down the hall, coming fast, rushing to the door.

Pock appeared, his eyes wide. “Uea! Don’t misunderstand. I—”

Uea shook his head and turned. He knew Pock was calling out after him, but his voice was drowned out by the white noise flaring through his head.

Thankfully, Uea got back to his car before sobs wracked his body. He collapsed into his seat, staying there for a moment, crying in his parked car and hoping that Pock wouldn’t follow him down.

No. He was probably too busy figuring out what lies to tell his other boyfriend first.

Fuck Pock. Uea didn’t want to look at that man ever again.

~*~αβΩ~*~

The next morning, King stepped into the office and immediately noticed Uea wasn’t at his desk. His eyes narrowed on his empty chair before he shrugged and went to turn on his computer to start his day.

After checking his emails and doing some minor daily tasks, King realized he couldn’t start his day. He needed Uea.

A half hour passed. King went down for his morning coffee. When he came back, Uea still hadn’t arrived.

This was getting weird now.

It wasn’t like Uea to be late, especially not on a day when they had important work to do. After splitting their project in two, they had agreed that they would meet up and compile all of their work before the long weekend. Once they compiled their work, they could relax and be in the final polish stages when they got back on Tuesday.

King sucked his teeth and spun around in his chair.

“Hey, Jade!”

Skittish as ever, Jade jumped. “Oi, King! You almost made me hit the wrong button.”

Waving off Jade’s usual whining, King asked, “Where’s Uea?”

Jade pursed his lips and glanced away. It didn’t take a detective to see that Jade knew something, but he clearly didn’t want to spill the beans.

“Uea? Well, he’s—um—he’s sick!”

“Sick? He was fine yesterday.”

Chewing nervously on his bottom lip, Jade shrugged. “We went out for dinner. I guess…food poisoning?”

King let out a huff of disbelief. Something was up.

“Maybe you can text him and ask him for his login just this once?” Jade suggested.

It wasn’t a bad idea. King stood and went over to Uea’s desk. Unfortunately, the laptop usually plugged into the monitors wasn’t there.

“Damn. He must have taken his work home.”

King clicked his tongue, annoyed. If he didn’t get the documents from Uea for his side of the project, he was pretty much blocked for the entire day. They’d both end up having to do a wild amount of OT when they got back from the long weekend.

“I need his files. Jade, can you just give me his address or something?”

Jade blinked up at him. “What? His address?”

“Yes. Give me his address, Jade! If he’s sick or whatever’s going on, that’s fine. I’ll just go get the final documents myself.”

“Oi! You look so scary when you’re mad, King.” Jade jutted out his bottom lip.

“I’m not mad. I'm just annoyed. I don’t like being blocked,” King shot back.

By the look on Jade’s face, he didn’t seem to see much difference. But, with a big sigh, he relented. “Fine. I’ll give you Uea’s address. Just make sure you text him before you arrive…and don’t tell him I gave it to you!”

King gratefully nodded his head as Jade tapped away at his phone. A ping sounded not one minute later. As soon as Jade’s message came through, King was off. He grabbed his coat and raced out of the office.

~*~αβΩ~*~

King did text like Jade had asked, though he waited until he was already parked outside Uea’s apartment building to do so. He tapped out a quick, “Hey, Jade mentioned you’re sick so I’m coming over to grab the documents for our project,” before hopping out of his car and heading up to Uea’s apartment.

He knocked on the door, but received no answer. With a frown, King checked his phone. Uea hadn’t read his message yet.

With a sigh, King tried calling.

From the hall, he could vaguely make out the sound of Uea’s phone ringing inside the apartment, but Uea didn’t pick up. With a frustrated growl, King tried again.

The ringtone sounded. Then again there was silence. No answer.

Getting impatient, King pounded on the door.

“Uea! I know you’re in there! I’m not going to tell anyone if you’re just playing hooky or whatever, I just want those files so I can start compiling our project.”

King waited, but still no sound of footsteps came from inside the apartment, no sign of Uea.

He let out a frustrated sigh. “Look, I can stand out here all day! It’s not like I have any work I can do without those files anyway. So as long as your neighbors don’t mind having me out here hollering at you through your door, I—”

Before King could finish his rant, Uea’s apartment door swung open. A pale hand reached out and pulled him inside before the door slammed shut behind them.

King blinked back his surprise. In a flash, Uea had yanked him into the dark entryway and pressed him up against a wall. He held King there with one hand firmly on his chest.

“Uea?” King said, all of the rage from before softening as he took in the state of the other man.

Uea held him to the wall with one arm outstretched. He was bent over slightly, breathing heavily, as if he’d just run a marathon. His hair was a little damp from a shower and his skin, slightly exposed by the baggy sweater he wore, was blushing bright red across his shoulders.

“Shit, you really are sick. You look—” King trailed off as soon as he noticed the scent drifting through Uea’s apartment. Sweet floral notes hit him hard and his eyes fluttered, half closed as a wave of arousal washed over him.

Fuck.

“Oh.”

“Oh,” Uea echoed with a nod. He glanced up at King, his hooded eyes dark with heat.

“You’re…ah…you aren’t sick then,” King said, stating the obvious.

“Not exactly.”

Taking a deep breath, Uea straightened back up. He glared at King, but it didn’t last long as he stumbled on weak legs and practically fell into the Alpha’s arms.

“Shit, Uea. You’re in heat.” King clenched his teeth, forcing down the sudden onslaught of Alpha urges rushing through him. Help. Protect. Mate. Breed. His inner Alpha was about to lunge out.

“Yes. I’m in heat. What are you doing here?” Uea snapped at him, though he didn’t seem to have the energy to muster his usual venom.

King swallowed hard. He’d wanted Uea for a long time, but never stood a chance. His pretty, though standoffish coworker always looked so damn good, but he had zero interest in King. He’d made that pretty clear over the years.

“What are you doing here? Shouldn’t you be with your Alpha?”

Uea scoffed. “I don’t have an Alpha.”

Really? An Omega as pretty as Uea didn’t have an Alpha?

King licked his lips nervously. “Okay, okay. Well, what about one of those Omega Clinics downtown?”

“I didn’t have time. I was…I was planning to spend it with an Alpha.”

“Oh? So, again I ask, where’s the lucky guy?” King teased, trying not to sound too bitter.

Uea let out a huffing laugh that sounded less than humorless. “He was with some other Omega last I saw.”

“Are you serious? What a piece of—” King stopped himself, biting the insides of his cheeks.

“You don’t have to stop. He is a piece of shit. An asshole, in fact. I always seem to date assholes.” Uea sighed as a pained expression crossed his features. “It doesn’t matter. I’ll be fine. Sorry you have to see me like this and if my scent messes up your day. I’ll get you the files you need and you can get back to work.”

Uea moved away from King and tried to walk on his own again, but his body trembled. King reached out, holding him by the waist for support before his knees gave out. The Alpha tried to ignore the way his cock twitched in his pants when he got his hands on Uea’s supple body.

Fuck. He smelled so fucking good. Biting his tongue was all King could do to keep his mouth from watering as Uea’s scent washed over him. Sweet. Almost too sweet.

“Uea…” King whispered, worried now. It wasn’t safe for an Omega to be left alone during their heat. If they weren’t taken care of, the fever could run too hot and make them really sick. Worse case scenario, it could even cause permanent damage.

“You should go to a clinic,” King said once he’d reined in his Alpha.

Uea groaned. “I know. You’re right. I hate those clinics, though.”

“Don’t you usually use them? When you’re, you know, single?”

Uea rolled his eyes. “Yes, but I was really looking forward to having an Alpha who I actually knew take me though my heat this time. At least I thought I knew him…”

King’s brows knit together. He noticed the sheen of tears in Uea’s gaze before he could blink back the emotion. King couldn’t stop himself. He cupped Uea’s soft cheeks and ran his thumbs under his glistening eyes, wiping away those tears.

“You have an Alpha who you know.”

As those words left King’s lips, Uea’s usual emotionless mask reappeared. He stared up at King, his dark eyes narrow, uncertain, but also…curious.

“King?”

“You shouldn’t be alone.”

They stared at each other for a long while. The eye contact flared, intense, made more so by the arousal that grew with every inhale. King could feel the chemistry building up between them, and he knew Uea could feel it too. He could smell the way Uea’s scent grew sweeter.

“I don’t want to be alone,” Uea replied after a long pause.

King nodded. Swallowing hard, he braved the question, “Do you want me to stay?”

“Have you ever been a heat Alpha before? For someone you’re not dating?”

King shook his head. It was pretty uncommon to have heat sex outside of a serious relationship. Most Omegas were tended to by their Alphas or at the clinics. Sex with a friend just to satisfy heat…that sort of arrangement wasn’t unheard of, but it wasn’t exactly common either.

“We could try,” King said.

“Try?”

“I want to try. For you.”

Uea bit his lip and glanced away. By the time he turned back, King had leaned in closer.

It wasn’t even a kiss at first. Their lips brushed, almost by accident. King stared into Uea’s soft dark eyes and watched as his gaze fluttered, unable to choose where to focus, his lips or his eyes. Finally, his eyelids simply fell shut. He arched forward.

This time, it was a real kiss. Deep and consuming. King forced back the moan that tried to rumble up through his chest as Uea’s mouth opened against his. He’d never been swept up so quickly by a kiss, but with Uea—gorgeous, aloof, ice-queen that he was—this kiss sent him flying high.

It didn’t take long for things to get heated and sloppy. Their tongues met as lust engulfed their initial gentle explorations. King’s fingers carded through Uea’s hair. He squeezed the back of the Omega’s neck in a way that made Uea moan into his mouth.

Without warning, King spun them around so it was Uea pressed to the wall. With his body caging the other man in, he deepened the kiss. His tongue slid past Uea’s lips, getting a brief taste of him before the Omega pushed back.

“Wait. Wait,” Uea gasped as he broke the kiss. “Don’t you have to get back to work?”

“Fuck work,” King bit out before claiming Uea’s lips again.

~*~αβΩ~*~

Back at the office, Jade sat alone surrounded by empty desks. Everyone was out except for Mongkol who had his head in his arms. He snored loudly on every inhale.

Jade glanced around and pouted.

“Where is everyone today?”

~*~αβΩ~*~

Uea gasped when his back hit the mattress. He lay there, naked because King had managed to undress him on their way to bed. His gasp turned into a low moan as King’s weight settled over him. He tilted his head back, allowing the Alpha to trail a hot line of kisses down his throat and over the bare jut of his collarbones. His heat and the overpowering scent of King’s Alpha pheromones had Uea’s head spinning, dizzy with lust and need.

King ran his tongue over the skin of Uea’s mating gland sending shivers through his core.

Carding his fingers through the long black strands of King’s hair, Uea drew him in closer as he rolled his hips. The wet and needy place between his legs pressed against the Alpha’s hard and burgeoning cock where it stretched out the front of his pants. He hissed as he soaked the front of King’s slacks with his slick.

Unfair. Why was he still wearing clothes?

King seemed to smile at his desperation. “Do you remember the first time we met at that club…”

Uea’s grip on King’s hair tightened, punishing him for killing the mood by talking. “When you stared at me like a creep?” he groaned.

King licked his lips. “I couldn’t have been that creepy, not with the way you were touching your neck when you saw me,” he said with a low chuckle.

As if to illustrate, King buried his face in Uea’s neck, drawing a gasp. He pressed his nose to Uea’s mating gland and inhaled deeply. His heated breath warmed the blushing skin of that erogenous zone when he next spoke.

“I left that night still thinking about your gorgeous fucking hands on that gorgeous fucking throat of yours. Admit it. You were trying to seduce me. It’s like you wanted me to claim you right then and there.”

A heated shiver wracked Uea’s body. His abdomen grew tight as pleasure throbbed through him. King had a way with words.

“Why are you so vulgar?” Uea whispered.

The accusation only earned him a smile. “You love it,” King replied before continuing his path down Uea’s chest. He paused over a nipple, sucking and biting at it until it swelled up to a red peak. He gave that red button a final suck before moving to the other.

Uea shuddered at the sensations. That tongue was like magic, but did King think he was going to be able to get milk out of him or something? Uea wanted to protest, but he wasn’t about to argue with the man dipping down and getting closer to the place between his legs where heat rose like a fucking geyser.

King dove between his thighs without any preamble. His hot breath tickled Uea’s cheeks before his tongue lapped at the natural Omegan slick pooling between his legs. The sweet smelling juices shined along his inner thighs moments before they squeezed shut around King’s head.

Uea let out a startled cry. The Alpha’s tongue slipped deep into his hole, teasing and stretching out the tight muscle there. Uea arched his back as he pressed into the sensation. King had a talented tongue, good for more than just flirting.

King’s hands moved over that place where his thighs met his hips. He caressed that line along his hip creases, soft hands gliding firm over Uea’s skin. His touch urged Uea’s movements as he shuddered against the pleasure of King’s lips and tongue.

King pulled back and trailed his mouth up along the same path his hands followed. He pressed wet kisses all over Uea’s lower abdomen before his mouth closed around his entire Omegan cock. Sucking Uea down, King inhaled sharply against his pubic mound and moaned.

That guttural sound vibrated through Uea. His cock twitched and he came with a jolt. The shock of pleasure pulsed through every nerve in his body. His hips jutted up against King’s face, riding it as he filled the Alpha’s mouth with his slick come. Never had Uea been reduced to stuttering nonsense like he was now. An orgasm shook through his entire body.

“Fuck. Fuck. King.” Uea moaned as he thrust up one last time between the hold of the Alpha’s lips.

King pulled up off his cock, sucking him clean in a deliberate tease. He kissed a new trail back up Uea’s creamy torso until he was on top again. Like a ravenous wolf, he attacked Uea’s swollen nipples as he ground his hard cock against his thigh.

Uea’s rational mind flickered back into existence for a brief moment to scream at him. He couldn’t let King have the upper hand. With energy he didn’t know he had, Uea rolled over King, climbing on top and pressing the other man down into the mattress.

Uea bounced his hips back against the hardness he felt straining King’s trousers, earning himself a low groan. He rocked against that straining bulge, utterly ruining the front of King’s work slacks with his slick.

“I’m going to ride you until you forget your fucking name,” Uea whispered with a heated venom that had King bucking his hips up underneath him. “Will you be good for me, Alpha?”

King growled. “Fuck yes.”

Uea smirked. That orgasm had cleared his mind for a moment, enough to tease King a bit. But it didn’t take long before his heat took over again.

As soon as Uea unzipped King’s fly and pulled off his pants, the spicy scent of his Alpha pheromones grew stronger. It had Uea’s mouth watering. He swallowed hard at the sight of King’s cock. His length was just as hard and thick as that bulge in his trousers had promised.

Uea slipped his hand between his own legs, collecting his slick before wrapping that same hand around King’s cock. He could barely close his fingers around the girth of it as he stroked that thick length up and down.

King breathed hard as Uea worked his massive cock with one hand. Uea smirked at the glazed look in the Alpha’s dark eyes. He wanted to see King panting like a dog before he was done.

“Ah. Uea. Keep going.” King hissed when Uea pressed his thumb to the head of his cock and squeezed.

“I’ll do better than keep going,” Uea whispered.

Before King had a chance to ask what he meant by that, Uea lifted his body over King’s hips. He settled over the Alpha’s cock. The swollen head kissed his wet and ready hole, tapping against it as Uea hovered.

“That’s it.” King’s hands settled on his hips. “Take it. Take what you need.”

Uea did. He settled down onto King’s cock slowly, taking him in until the slick ring of his muscle wrapped tight around the base where the slight bulge of King’s Alpha knot would soon begin to grow.

“Fuck!” Uea threw his head back. His fingernails dug into the skin of King’s abdomen as he held on for dear life.

King stared up at him, eyes half-lidded, lust evident in the way his lips parted. The heavy weight of his gaze raked over Uea’s body. Uea would have laughed if the heat and exertion weren’t so all consuming. King wanted him so bad it made him look stupid.

Uea’s lips curved in a smile as he rocked back on the thick length of King’s cock. He gasped and shuddered, but took even more pleasure in the expression his movement drew from the Alpha.

King panted, his mouth gaping as he breathed hard. He traced a caress over Uea’s flat belly and took hold of his hips. He didn’t try to control the movements, just held on for the ride.

Uea bounced in King’s lap until his mind melted. His thighs shook from the effort of pulling himself up and down over King’s cock. That thick length stroked his insides, stoking the fire of his heat with every thrust. Each time their skin met it was with a wet clap as Uea’s slick gushed out of him.

Uea nearly blacked out when King angled his hips up and hit something inside him that sent a jolt through his abdomen. His eyes rolled back, but King caught him before he could fall.

The Alpha sat up suddenly and embraced Uea’s trembling frame.

“You’re so fucking hot,” King whispered, before wrapping a hand around the back of Uea’s neck. He pulled Uea down for an intense kiss, sealing their lips together before forcing Uea’s mouth open with his own.

All Uea could do was hold on and take it. King sucked on his tongue like he wanted to pull Uea into him. The wet, slick sounds of his aggressive kiss nearly rivaled the clap of Uea’s ass hitting King’s thighs with every pounding thrust.

Breaking the kiss, King flipped them back over. He was on top once more with Uea pressed back into the mattress.

Uea stared up into King’s dark eyes through a spinning, glassy gaze. He moaned long and low as King thrust back inside him, even deeper at this angle. With King inside and above him, surrounding him completely, Uea melted from the heat.

“King…Alpha…” he whispered, barely able to get the words out.

“What is it, Uea?” King breathed between heavy thrusts. “What do you need?”

Uea made a keening sound in the back of his throat. King knew what he wanted. He wanted to be fucked and bred until King filled him to the brim with his come and stoppered it inside with his thick Alpha knot.

“Need…” Uea didn’t need to say anything more. He wrapped his long legs around King’s waist and pulled him in deeper. The swelling bulge of his knot pressed past Uea’s hole and had him crying out.

“Yeah,” King groaned. “Let me give you what you need, Uea.”

“Give it to me,” Uea stammered again and again, the phrase practically coming out as a single garbled word as he let his body relax. He was under King’s control now. The Alpha could do what he’d like.

King didn’t hold back. His hips moved like pistons in and out, fucking Uea through the pleasure-pain of his heat. King lifted his hips into his lap as he thrust off the bed. His hands moved from Uea’s waist to caress his lower back and slip down. He squeezed Uea’s ass and picked up the pace. Harder. Faster.

Uea gripped King’s hair as the Alpha leaned forward to suck his nipples. Sharp teeth grazed his sensitive skin, the promise of a mark without the commitment that came with leaving it a few inches higher on his neck. Still, the idea had Uea’s inner Omega bursting at the thought.

On King’s next deep thrust, Uea squeezed his legs tight around the Alpha’s waist and came hard. He clenched around King’s knot as it swelled larger and larger, stretching out his hole with every thrust until it was too big to pull out. Even then, King rolled his hips, massaging his knot with Uea’s insides until, with a rumbling growl. After pushing Uea to a second shuddering climax, King followed Uea over the edge.

Growling, King rested his forehead against Uea’s collarbones. His panting breath warmed Uea’s chest as he thrust deep and came inside. His cock was a fucking firehose, spraying Uea's lower abdomen swelled. The heat of the Alpha’s seed filled Uea until his own heat was cool in comparison.

The sensation of being full left Uea utterly satisfied. The dizzy fog that clouded his mind finally settled down. He flopped back on the bed in a post-orgasmic haze, happy to stay locked on King’s knot forever if it meant he could keep feeling this good.

~*~αβΩ~*~

“Are you feeling better?” King asked after a few blissful minutes.

Uea lay back against the sheets, eyes closed, utterly wrecked and utterly speechless. He rolled over to King and put a hand over the Alpha’s mouth, patting his lips as if it could shut him up.

King chuckled around the fingers on his lips, kissing them for good measure. “Sorry, I’ll let you enjoy the afterglow.”

Uea rolled his eyes. The orgasmic bliss was fading, but his heat had been satisfied…for now.

“You should grab those files so we can finish that project,” Uea muttered groggily, changing the subject back to something he was more comfortable with. And maybe he was not so subtly trying to put King back into that familiar coworker box.

King clearly saw right through his little ruse. “Let’s get to it after your heat fully dies down, hm?” he suggested with a smirk.

“Are you going to stay all weekend?” Uea asked, trying not to sound too hopeful.

“Sure. Of course. I mean, I want to if you—”

Again, Uea tapped his lips. “Thank you, King,” he said, cutting the Alpha off.

Again, King kissed his fingers, slower this time, his eyes hooded in a sensual expression.

“No need to thank me. It was good for me too. This wouldn’t be such a bad arrangement, would it?” He smiled and shot Uea a sly wink. “We could just be like…bed friends…during your heats.”

No longer cloudy with heat, Uea’s eyes shot open. “Bed friends?”

What did that even mean?
