Chapter 16
Gus
The days and nights spent with Seb seemed to fly by, and before I realized it, harvest season had turned into fall.
I often thought about Hal and what he was doing.
Was he enjoying the fall colors as much as I was?
Was he walking through the woods, admiring the yellows, oranges, and reds, while he thought of me?
As soon as the leaves turned golden and covered the ground in a thick carpet, he and I would gather them in huge piles, then jump into them, while we laughed like small children.
Lord Willoughby never seemed to mind and allowed us a bit of fun after a long day in the barn, making preparations for winter.
I missed Hal, but still, I had no desire to leave Seb’s side either.
I still didn’t know if Seb was pregnant with my child, although I had a feeling he was.
I’d asked him numerous times, but he always gave me a blank stare, then quickly changed the subject or diverted my attention with a new type of honey he wanted me to try.
But I tried not to think too hard about it and just enjoyed the time we had left.
I found the stables empty when I entered, and I gathered that Adrian was out with one of the horses.
He was the only one caring for the royal horses as far as I knew, so he spent most of his days exercising them outside.
Aside from being with Seb, the stables were my favorite place in the palace, and Adrian apparently loved having me around, too, because one day when I came by, he’d made a small carving area for me.
Since then, I hadn’t used the shed, but would spend hours and hours carving in the stables while Adrian went about his business, both of us sharing small conversations as we each did our own thing.
As usual, I’d lost track of time, working on a cute little rattle for Elias’ son, who was now one month old.
He couldn’t use it yet, but I wanted to give Elias something because he was one of the few omegas at the palace who treated me with kindness and like I belonged with Seb.
The rattle was formed in the shape of a dragon, and when you shook it, the tail and wings wiggled from side to side.
I could just see Baby Everian playing with it while he giggled loudly.
Everian. The name was so pretty, and I couldn’t help but wonder what Seb would name our son.
I’d likely never know, but I was certain Seb would pick a beautiful name for him.
As soon as Seb entered the stables, I sensed him with every cell of my body.
The small hairs at the back of my neck rose to attention, while saliva pooled in my mouth.
My nostrils flared, and the familiar possessiveness coursed through me.
I was like an animal whenever Seb was around, and like an avalanche, the words claim, mine, and lately, keep, washed over me. I even think I growled a little.
“Of course I’d find you here,” Seb chuckled, and his sweet scent wafted toward me as he moved to where I was sitting. “What are you doing, Alpha Gus?” He smirked knowingly as I swallowed back my obvious desire for him.
“Carving,” I croaked, and his chuckle turned into a lofty laugh as he beamed at me.
“Surprise, surprise,” he teased as he came to stand next to me, leaning his hip against my shoulder.
Soon, his fingers found the nape of my neck, and he started stroking my skin playfully, leaving a trail of goosebumps behind.
I turned and looked up at him only to find his green eyes swimming with want.
Leaning my face against his still flat stomach, I whispered, “Hello? Is anyone there?” And Seb’s stomach bubbled with laughter against my ear.
“Silly alpha. He can’t hear you yet—I mean, if there’s someone in there.”
“I know you’re in there,” I spoke against Seb’s belly button.
I knew it just like I knew my own name, and that honey was the second-best thing in the world, right after Seb’s slick.
Like magic, Seb moaned and swayed against me.
It was almost as if we shared one mind by now, and that a thought alone could provoke a physical reaction in the other.
“You smell nice.” His fingers found my ear and started playing with my earlobe. I shivered at his touch, and my cock immediately hardened. Lifting my arm, I sniffed my armpit through my cotton shirt.
“I just smell of me.”
“Exactly. That’s what I said.”
“Oh.” I swallowed, but more saliva pooled in my mouth, and the familiar hunger rose inside me.
It was a feeling unlike any other, like a hunger that could never be fully sated, a thirst that could never be quenched.
It just grew and grew until instinct took over, and I had to bury myself deep inside my omega to settle the urge momentarily and quiet the beast.
“Are you just going to sit there and drool on my shirt, Alpha?”
“I wasn’t…” My gaze dipped to Seb’s shirt.
“I made you look,” he giggled, and my heart rejoiced at seeing him, my king, so carefree and playful.
He’d been so serious when we’d first met, such a grump, but now he was just the sweetest little omega in the world.
My omega. Seb was older than me. I didn’t know by how much, but I knew he was.
But when we were together, I never felt it.
Not anymore. It was like we were just perfect for each other, now that he’d let down his guard.
“You know I’ll get you back for that, Little Omega.”
“Promises, promi—” In one movement, I rose from the small stool and flipped Seb over my shoulder like he weighed next to nothing. He didn’t. “What are you doing?” he squealed. “Put me down, you big brute!”
“Never,” I laughed, then smacked his ass.
“Ugh! I’m the king! You can’t just—”
“Can’t I?” I dug my fingers into the meatiest part of his ass and squeezed. Seb screamed as he chased my touch, and I could smell his slick building. “Be quiet,” I warned, “or you’ll alert all the other alphas within fifty miles that there’s a horny little omega hungry for cock.”
“You can’t talk to me like that!” He huffed and puffed, and it was beyond cute. He made his hands into fists and started pounding half-heartedly at my butt.
“You love it when I boss you around. It gives you a break from being in charge.” It was true. Seb loved to let go.
“I do not!” He buried his face against my ass, then bit me. I hardly felt it through the layer of clothing, but my heart did a happy dance at the thought of my little omega marking me. “Now put me down!”
Walking toward the back of the stables where the hay bales were kept, Seb bounced against me like a rag doll.
“Oh, I’ll put you down, Omega. Right on top of my cock!
” I slapped his ass again, and Seb moaned loudly.
The scent of his slick intensified, and I struggled to walk as my balls filled with more and more of my seed.
I was going to pump Seb’s ass so full of cum, he’d be leaking for the rest of the day.
I’d have to carve a plug for him or he’d leave a trail of slick and cum all over the palace.
“Pleeeaaase,” he whined as he rubbed his hard cock against my shoulder, seeking friction. “I need you, Gus. Now!”
“Shhh,” I cooed, then eased him down on a pile of hay.
The front of his pants was soaked, precum seeping through, and Seb’s eyes swam with arousal like two green forest lakes.
His cheeks were painted crimson red, and in ecstasy, he’d sucked his bottom lip into his mouth.
“Look at you.” Wrapping my hands around the waistline of his pants, I tore them from his body like they were made from paper.
“I’m going to run out of clothes soon,” he frowned at me as I threw his pants over my shoulder.
“Then walk around naked, Omega. I don’t mind.”
“I can’t walk around naked! I’m the ki—”
“King. Yeah, yeah, I know. But you’re also just a needy little omega, aren’t you?
” Before he could object, I leaned down and claimed his mouth, then found my favorite place right between his thighs.
He welcomed me, linking his arms around my neck, his tongue dancing around mine.
In the beginning, we hadn’t kissed, but it was impossible not to now.
The temptation to own Seb in every way was too strong, and I think he felt the same.
We’d regret it later, of course, when we were no longer together, but I just couldn’t help myself.
Thrusting my tongue into his mouth, I tasted him. Seb widened his thighs, then wrapped his legs around my ass, pulling me closer. My cock brushed against his, and my hips surged forward, eager to bury myself inside his hot, wet hole.
“Fuck me. Please, my alpha. Fuck me hard.” Seb’s tongue snaked around mine, and I groaned into his mouth. His hands trailed down my sides, then he started pulling at my pants impatiently. My cock sprang free, and I shot forward, impaling Seb on my entire length in one hard thrust.
“Aaahhhh!” he screamed as his heat wrapped around me like a snug glove. “Gus!”
“Who do you belong to, Omega? Who?!” I found his neck and dug my teeth into his soft skin. Seb screamed again as he shook underneath me, cum already shooting out of his cock.
“You! Only you!”
“Whose hole is this?” I gritted as I continued to fuck into him in long, deep strokes.
“Yours, Alpha. It’s your hole.”
“You’re damn right it is. Only mine.” I bit him again, and this time I tasted blood. Seb squirmed underneath me, but it wasn’t to get away; it was to get closer to me.
“More,” he begged. “Please, Gus. More. I need your cum inside me.” His words came out in pants as they hit my skin like hot little bullets. “Breed me, Alpha.”
“Oh, you’ll get it, my sweet little king.
I’ll fill you up. I’ll breed a baby into you.
” I fucked him harder as my orgasm closed in on me.
I had no idea where the words were coming from, but it was like my mouth no longer belonged to me.
As always, when I was inside Seb, my world became small and simple.
My only goal was to bring my omega pleasure.
To claim him and mark him as mine. I was born for this; I knew that now.
I was born to fuck Seb, fill him with my seed, and breed one baby after another into him.
At least, that’s what my instincts told me.
Seb’s dick hardened against me as renewed arousal built inside his small body. He was such a magical creature. The way he could just come and come, again and again, on my cock.
“Please,” he whimpered, clinging to my shoulders.
“Please, my alpha.” With one long thrust, I came, my entire body shaking as my release tore through me.
My cock pulsed as my balls drew up, and I shot my cum inside Seb’s hole.
A loud roar left me, and Seb clenched around me, screaming against my neck as he came again.
I held Seb through his release, cocooning his body from the outside world. We were still alone, but he was so precious to me, and so vulnerable in moments like these. Eventually, he pushed at my chest, and I turned onto my back, pulling him with me.
“You have straw in your hair,” I smiled at him as I swept my fingers through his sweaty bangs. He blinked at me, his eyes heavy.
“I do?” He buried his face against my chest, pressing featherlight kisses against my skin, where my shirt was hanging open.
He was so tender, so sweet, and my heart swelled in my chest, not just with want for him, but with love, pure and simple.
I loved Seb. I knew I always would, until the day I died.
There would be no one else for me. I locked my arms around his precious body and pulled him even tighter against me.
Seb sighed as he threw his leg over my stomach, his face still buried against my chest.
“I can hear your heart,” he whispered.
“You mean, your heart.”
“Gus…” There was a quiet warning in his voice, but it sounded half-hearted. “We can’t…”
“I know. Please forgive me.” I love you.
“It’s okay.” He yawned against me as his body grew heavy and limp. “Let’s nap. You wore me out, Alpha.”
“Sleep then, my king.” I’ll keep you safe.
