2. First Heat
Chapter two
First Heat
Iwas in the middle of kneading bread for dinner two days later when a savage pain ripped through me. My entire body curled into itself as I crumpled to the floor, screaming out in pain.
Heat flooded my veins and I felt like I was burning to death as I tore at my clothes, ripping them off my body, gasping at the heat that radiated from my body. A cramp twisted through me, making me writhe on the floor, panting heavily.
That's how my alphas found me, what seemed like days later. Screaming and twisting on the kitchen floor, in too much pain to get to the phone or the shower.
"What's wrong, Livy?" Lorne shouted, bursting into the house. "We felt you hurting, what's going on?"
"Oh, shit." Melvin appeared in the kitchen doorway and I reached for him.
"Alpha." My voice was nearly gone from screaming. "Help me."
"Okay, calm down, it's just the heat drug taking effect. Lee said it might be abrupt." Charlie strode into the room and scooped me up. "You're fine. Your body is releasing eggs as we speak and we're going to make sure they're fertilized, right, boys?"
"Are you sure she's okay? She's in so much pain," Lorne said, his anxiety spiking down the bond.
I realized I hadn't even felt him or any of them through the bond in a while.
My head lolled back on Charlie's arm and I whimpered. Standing here and talking wasn't helping the pain that kept ravaging my insides.
Finally, Charlie climbed the stairs, but instead of the nest, he took me to the bathroom and stood me in the shower. "You're covered in sweat, let's get you clean first."
"No, I need… knot."
He hushed me, turning the water on. It felt like fire sluicing over me and I screamed again, a pitiful squeak emitting from my lips.
"Too hot, too hot," I croaked.
Charlie ignored me, stripping down and scrubbing me all over, his hard cock bouncing against his belly.
Desperate, I dropped to my knees and leaned forward, taking him in my mouth. The salty hit from his precum instantly relaxed my muscles, but he pushed me back.
"This is for making babies, don't make me spill down your throat."
He picked me up again and carried me to the nest, the air refreshing against my wet skin. I was shaking all over, not shivering, but overwhelmed by sensations. The world was too much, too many scents, too many sounds, and feelings.
Tears dribbled from my eyes. The pain was killing me.
Charlie finally laid me down on my nest. "Present for your alphas."
My body instantly responded. I flipped over onto my hands and knees, ass jutting in the air, legs spread, with my body open to them.
"Good omega," Charlie praised. "Melvin, you first."
Melvin wasted no time in positioning himself behind me and pushing in. To my shock, it hurt. My slick, usually so prolific during a heat, was missing. He didn't seem to notice, though, pumping in and out of my body and groaning in pleasure.
I whined in pain, but it was a twisted sensation. My body craved his. Every thrust simultaneously soothed the horrific cramps, but felt like it was tearing me deep inside.
Even as my alpha knotted me, my slick was missing. His cum pumped into me and soothed some of the stinging deep inside, but I started to cramp again the second his knot deflated.
"More," I gasped.
Lorne was next, but he paused just as he was about to press into me. "She's bleeding."
"She was a little dry," Melvin panted, wiping sweat from his forehead. "Should be good now."
"Knot, alpha!" I whimpered.
"She wants your knot, give it to her. Omegas are sensitive and sometimes they bleed from being stretched out like that," Charlie told him. "You should know these things by now!"
"Are you okay?" Lorne asked, his big hand running over my back. "Do you want to stop?"
"Can't. Knot me."
He rubbed his tip up and down my slit, hitting my clit several times in the process before he seemed satisfied and slid into me. Melvin's cum lubricated the way. Now I felt only pleasure, even with the missing slick.
As Lorne started to thrust into me, I pressed back against him with my hips, eager to cum. His fingers slid around my body and started to strum my clit in the rhythm that always brought me to climax. But this time was different.
There was no release. I felt the pleasure start to build, but suddenly my entire body was far too sensitive and everything hurt. I pulled his hand away from me and yowled as his knot expanded, his cum gushing into me.
Lorne laid us down on our sides as he pulsed inside me, his knot growing even bigger. "Fuck, you feel so good," he groaned, moving his hips a little more.
For a few minutes, I felt fine, content, the pain gone. I hadn't had an orgasm, but my body felt fulfilled and at peace.
Then his knot started to deflate and he slipped out of me, a rush of cum following. I still wasn't producing slick, I could tell. The alphas didn't seem to notice, though. I was too exhausted and in pain to speak.
Charlie took his turn, finishing rapidly with a rush of expletives as he knotted me and stayed in place for as long as possible. When he finally softened and couldn't stay inside me anymore, the cramps rushed back, ripping and tearing at my insides until I was begging them to take me again.
"Get some rest and we'll go another round," he said, patting my hip as he got up. "Melvin, grab her some water. We don't want her to dehydrate."
Melvin helped me sit up and I gulped eagerly at the water, only for it to all come back up a moment later.
"Something's wrong," Lorne said, frowning at me. "She's out of it more than usual."
"Artificial heats are often stronger than regular ones," Charlie said. "She'll be fine, but she might need another knot before she can relax."
There was no relaxing. When the alphas slept, I writhed in pain until they woke and someone slid inside me again. My cries were all dried up, my throat so raw I couldn't even whine anymore. And still, no slick.
After every break, their knots tore into me all over again, but it was still better than the cramps.
I held onto the fact that heats didn't last forever.
This had to end and when it did, I would be able to explain how awful it was.
They would never let me go through this if they knew, my groggy mind told me.
I lost track of time as I reached for my alphas again and again. They were tiring, but my body just wouldn't stop seizing and twisting without a knot. Sweat dripped from me as my body overheated again and again.
"Are you sure this is normal?" Melvin groaned, rolling off me.
"It's experimental, but I'll give Lee some feedback," Charlie grunted. "Where's that knotting toy we had?"
Silicone knots were not the same as real ones and my body knew it.
The pain lessened only slightly when Lorne pumped the knotty toy into me and eventually pushed the swollen lump of silicone inside.
This one didn't deflate, but my muscles still quivered and spasmed around it, my orgasm just out of reach.
I passed out several times, coming to with excruciating sensations roaring through me. My tears had long since dried up. My throat was nearly closed off from screaming. And my entire body ached from exhaustion even as it begged for more.
Finally, the heat broke. I was abruptly shivering, the sweat pouring off me cooling my skin far too quickly. The last few ripples in my abdomen left me sore, but finally relaxed.
"Thank god, I don't think I could do that much longer," Melvin groaned when I sat up.
I motioned for the water bottle and Charlie passed it to me, already opened. I gulped the water down, letting the coolness soothe my sore throat. Once I'd drained it, I just wanted to sleep, but Lorne picked me up and took me to the shower, washing me gently under the warm water.
"That was crazy. Even my nuts are sore," he told me with a chuckle. Like it had all been one big adventure instead of complete torture.
I wanted to tell him how much it hurt, but I could barely stand. Instead, I sank into him and closed my eyes.
The next thing I knew, Lorne was tucking me into the pack bed and then he crept out of the room. It didn't matter, I was asleep in seconds.
