He feels a body against his and he rubs himself harder against it. Arms are wrapped around him and he breathes out. He feels oddly happy, safe, and comforted. He feels right. Whole. Complete. For the first time in his life. Everything is perfect. He smiles as the arms tighten around him and he doesn’t think he ever wants to wake up. And then he feels lips on his ear, breath on his skin, and a voice in his ear.

“Alpha…”

The title is whispered so low and seductively, making the young alpha shiver. And then his eyes snap open and he promptly pushes himself away from the other boy holding him so tightly. He rolls over and sits up, his eyes wide. “L-l-lord…” He stammers over the title as he gazes at the naked omega.

“Cynlaef.” The omega stares at him blankly after he sits up. “Are you serious?” He asks and sees the alpha flinch away from him. He sighs and rolls his eyes. “After everything last night…”

The alpha shakes his head and pulls the blankets higher over him, covering himself. “Nothing happened.” He says, his voice low.

“Nothing?” The omega repeats and feels the alpha’s words like the other boy had just stabbed him with a dagger. “How can you say that?”

Cynlaef flinches and shakes his head. “I’m sorry, Lord.”

The omega frowns and narrows his eyes, glaring at him. “Stop it!” He hisses. “We just spent my heat together! You can call me by name.”

The alpha’s eyes widen and he shakes his head. “No I can’t, Lord.”

The omega sighs. “Cynlaef…” He starts.

“No, Lord.” The alpha interrupts.

“Alpha, you will say my name now!” The omega snaps.

Cynlaef flinches again and bites his bottom lip, looking down at the bed. It feels wrong to be sitting there, naked with the young prince. Really wrong. Everything about it feels very wrong. He knows the omega’s words are true. They had spent his heat together. And Cynlaef vividly remembers every touch, every kiss and the feeling of the omega under him. But it was all very wrong. He should have never gone to the omega’s room. “Athelstan.” He says softly, his voice barely a whisper.

The omega glares more. “Louder!”

“Athelstan!” The alpha says louder.

The omega smirks. He leans closer and pulls the blanket away. He crawls into Cynlaef’s lap before the alpha can stop him. He wraps his arms around the other boy’s neck and licks his lips slowly. “Alpha…”

Cynlaef leans back and shakes his head, his eyes wide in fear. “Stop, Lord… Athelstan.”

Athelstan frowns, seconds from trying to kiss the alpha. He pulls back and tilts his head. “Why?”

Cynlaef opens his mouth slowly and stumbles over the words. “I… we… we can’t.”

Athelstan raises an eyebrow. “I will ask why again.”

“It’s… not… not right.” Cynlaef mumbles.

Athelstan frowns. “Not right?”

Cynlaef shakes his head. “Not proper.”

“Proper.” The omega repeats and raises an eyebrow. “We just spent all day humping and it’s not proper to hug you? To kiss you?”

“No, Lord.” Cynlaef shakes his head. “We shouldn’t have. It was a mistake.”

Athelstan blinks. “A mistake…”

“Yeah.” Cynlaef says, glancing away. He can feel the omega in his lap and he’s very aware that the other boy is naked. And then he remembers he’s also still naked. And it’s all very, very wrong. “I shouldn’t have touched you!” He shakes his head. “I shouldn't have ever looked at you!”

Athelstan raises an eyebrow and tilts his head. “Alpha, it’s okay.” He says softly, leaning closer again. He runs his fingers gently over the alpha’s neck and smiles. “Cynlaef, honey…”

“But… but I…” The alpha stutters and shakes his head. “I forced myself on you… I did that to you.”

Athelstan rolls his eyes and pinches the other boy on the back of the neck. “No you didn’t. I told you to.” He says matter-of-factly and nods his head. “You did exactly as you were told to, alpha.”

Cynlaef squeaks a little at the pinch and frowns. “But… you… you were in heat!”

Athelstan huffs and rolls his eyes again. “Yeah, I know.” He snaps. “It was my first.”

Cynlaef’s eyes widened more. “Your first?”

Athelstan nods, not missing a beat or reacting to the alpha’s horrified expression. “Yeah. This was my first time.” He says, smiling easily. “You’re my first.”

Cynlaef promptly pushes the omega out of his lap. He flinches back and shakes his head. He swallows and he feels his stomach lurch at the idea. “And I… I stole it!”

The omega recovers and sits up. He snorts and rolls his eyes again. “You didn’t…”

“Yes I did!” Cynlaef wails.

“No you didn’t!” Athelstan snaps, interrupting him. “I wanted you to!”

Cynlaef shakes his head. “But…”

Athelstan reaches for the alpha and touches his knee gently. “It felt good.”

Cynlaef flinches away from him again and shakes his head, not believing the omega at all. “You… you screamed.” He says softly as he remembers.

Athelstan blushes and looks away. “It uh…” He starts and breathes out. “Okay… it hurt only a little… okay… a lot…” He admits and shrugs. “But only for a few minutes and then it uh… it felt…” His blush darkens and he lifts his hands to his face, covering himself and hiding as he remembers how good it felt to have the alpha’s knot inside him.

Cynlaef sniffs and feels like he’s seconds from crying. “I’m so sorry I hurt you.”

The omega lowers his hands and blinks at the alpha. He frowns for a moment, catching the alpha’s expression, and then he groans loudly. “Are you even listening to me?” He asks. “Did you hear anything I just said?”

Cynlaef drops his gaze to the mattress and nods. “You said I hurt you…”

“No!” Athelstan snaps and ignores the way the alpha flinches again. “I said a little and then it was better and you felt amazing inside me and I never wanted your knot to go down and I want you to do it again…” The omega says it quickly and without realizing it. He blinks and his eyes widen. He sucks in a sharp breath and looks away.

Cynlaef still doesn’t believe Athelstan’s words. “You… you’re just saying that…”

Athelstan turns back to look at him and blinks. “What?”

The alpha sighs. “Trying to make me feel better about hurting you.”

“You didn’t hurt me!” Athelstan snaps. “Well… fine!” He throws up his arms. “First times hurt but I’m fine and I loved it and I wanna do it again!” He insists.

Cynlaef sniffs and finally lifts his head. He looks at the omega shyly and sniffs again. “You… you do?”

Athelstan nods. “With you.” He adds, pretty sure the alpha doesn’t understand.

Cynlaef blinks and frowns. “With me?”

Athelstan rolls his eyes again and mumbles under his breath. “Alphas.” He sighs and nods. “Yes. With you.” He says as he scoots a little closer. He tips his head back and licks his lips and smirks at the alpha. “I want to do it again… with you.”

Cynlaef swallows the lump in his throat and sucks in a sharp breath. He almost believes the omega this time. Except for one blaring problem. “What about Osbert?” He asks softly, his voice shaking.

Athelstan rolls his eyes yet again and groans. He’s beyond frustrated by the alpha. But he understands. He’s known Cynlaef for years. He really should have expected his reaction. And perhaps he should have tried to talk to the alpha before trying to seduce him. But still, he swears Cynlaef isn’t listening to him on purpose. “I haven’t done it with him yet!” The omega hisses. “I just said you were my first!”

“Oh…” Cynlaef blinks and nods slowly. “Yet?”

Athelstan blushes again and looks away. “I… I like him too.”

“You do?” Cynlaef asks softly.

“Yes!” The omega snaps. “Cynlaef… I swear…”

The alpha turns away and runs a hand through his hair slowly. “Sorry.” He mumbles, feeling so out of his element.

Athelstan sighs deeply. “I like you too, okay? I just…” He tips his head back and groans. “I like him. I’m sorry.”

Cynlaef shrugs as he glances around the room, trying to focus on anything except the wild fluttering of his heart. Because he believes the omega’s words now. Athelstan likes him. Except the omega also likes Osbert. And Cynlaef feels that declaration sharply. “He… he asked you first…” He says softly and clenches his jaw. “You’re his…” He says, his voice barely a whisper.

Athelstan pulls his knees to his chest and wraps his arms around himself. He hugs his knees to his chest and rests his head on them. “He asked to court me.” He admits softly. “I haven't become his mate yet. I… I don’t think I’m uh… ready for all that.” He says softly. “I like… I like thinking about both of you.”

Cynlaef glances back at the omega. “Yeah?”

Athelstan nods and smiles. “I… I like uh… thinking about you and I want you to ask me too.”

Cynlaef’s eyes widen. “Really?”

Athelstan sucks in a sharp breath and nods. “I uh… I might… want you both…” He admits and hugs himself tighter.

Cynlaef frowns as he thinks about standing up to Osbert for Athelstan. He’s not sure he could take the other alpha. He’s not sure he wants to even try. Both are skilled fighters and Cynlaef has spent the last year training with Osbert. He’s bested the other alpha just as many times as he’s lost to him. Maybe more. He thinks he’s beaten the other alpha quite a few times. But still, Cynlaef feels like he wouldn’t be able to fight him for real and he feels his heart sink at the idea. “You want us both to court you?” He asks finally, not attempting to hide the disappointment in his voice.

Athelstan purses his lips and tilts his head. He uncurls himself and lets his knees fall. “Not like uh… not like… fighting over me or anything.” He says quickly, holding up his hands. “I don’t want fighting.” He repeats. “I… I think I just… want both of you… I think… I want us together.” He admits softly.

“Together…” Cynlaef muses and sees the blush darkening the omega’s face. He licks his lips slowly and breathes out. He wonders about speaking his true heart to the omega. He wonders about admitting it outloud for the first time. His eyes meet Athelstan’s glaze and he quickly looks away. He sucks in a sharp breath and opens his mouth. “I… I like uh… thinking about you too… and uh… Osbert.” He admits softly and swallows.

Athelstan raises an eyebrow. “Really?”

Cynlaef blushes and drops his gaze. “Yeah. Is… is that… okay?”

Athelstan smiles, feeling his chest lighten at the alpha’s admission. He knew he couldn’t have both if they didn’t like each other. But to hear that Cynlaef has considered Osbert makes the omega smile and he can’t stop. “Is it okay if you like Osbert too?” He asks with a giggle in his head.

“Well yeah.” Cynlaef sighs. “He’s yours.”

Athelstan blinks. “He’s not mine.”

“But you belong to him.” Cynlaef says without thinking.

Athelstan narrows his eyes and glares at the alpha. He snarls and flashes his teeth at him. “I belong to no one.” He snaps.

“Oh…” The alpha flinches. “I… I’ve seen you together… I thought… I thought you were his.”

Athelstan huffs. “Well I’m not!”

Cynlaef swallows. “I… I thought you were.”

Athelstan leans closer and smacks the alpha in the side of the head. “I just said I wasn’t ready to take a mate and I said I like you both and I just spent my first heat with you!”

The alpha flinches away and huffs out. “I know.” He says, rubbing his head. He sulks a little and sticks his bottom lip out, pouting. “It just… it feels wrong to like you both.”

Athelstan rolls his eyes. “You can like another alpha. Doesn’t mean anything.”

Cynlaef shakes his head quickly. “It’s not right.”

Athelstan shrugs. “I don’t think it feels wrong.”

“You’re different.” Cynlaef says.

“Why?” Athelstan asks slowly, frowning.

“You’re an omega.” Cynlaef states bluntly.

Athelstan blinks. “So?”

“So…” Cynlaef shrugs. “It’s okay for you to like two alphas.”

Athelstan hisses and pushes the alpha away. “Don’t treat me like I’m less because I’m an omega!”

Cynlaef falls back and catches himself. He blinks and shakes his head quickly. “I’m not!”

Athelstan glares at the alpha for a moment longer. But he only feels sincerity from him. And nerves. He sighs and relaxes. “You are a mess, Cynlaef.”

Cynlaef dips his head. “I know.” He says softly.

A slow smile spreads across his face as the omega leans closer again. “Osbert told me he thought you were hot.” He says, changing the subject.

Cynlaef blinks and feels his heart flutter. “He… he did?”

Athelstan nods. “He was the one who told me he thought you were interested in me too.”

The alpha gasps. “He did?”

Athelstan dips his head. “I… I didn’t really notice with everything my family’s been doing to me… I was spending a lot of time with him to escape them… because he actually acted like he was interested instead of just creeping around.”

“Sorry.” The alpha says softly.

Athelstan shrugs and smiles again. He leans closer and smiles at him. “It’s okay, alpha. I know now.”

Cynlaef smiles and licks his lips slowly. “You… you’re really okay with it?”

“With you liking Os?” Athelstan asks.

Cynlaef blushes and nods. “And uh… with me liking you.”

“We spent the whole day humping.” The omega points out with a giggle. “Yes, Cynlaef. I’m okay with you liking me. I like you too.”

“And Osbert?” The alpha adds.

Athelstan nods. “Yeah. Him too.”

Cynlaef leans back and stretches out a little. “I’m uh… still sorry… if I hurt you.”

Athelstan smiles and leans closer. He tentatively reaches for Cynlaef again and when the alpha doesn’t flinch away from him, he crawls into the other boy’s lap again. He wraps his arms around the alpha’s neck and runs his fingers slowly up and down his skin, enjoying the feel of the alpha against him. Cynlaef shivers under him before he lifts his arms. He hesitates and Athelstan can read the worry across his face. The omega hums and nods and the alpha finally wraps his arms around his waist. “There.” Athelstan says softly, smiling and practically purring. “That’s better.”

Cynlaef breathes out, relaxing under him, and nods. “Yeah.” He says and tightens his arms around him.

“Good.” The omega leans closer until the tip of his nose brushes against the alpha’s. “Wanna hump again?” He asks slowly.

Cynlaef swallows. “I… I don’t… I don’t wanna hurt you again.”

Athelstan groans and tips his head back. “You didn’t hurt me!”

“It seemed like it hurt.” Cynlaef insists.

“Well… I'm fine!” Athelstan snaps. “Aren't I?” He argues.

Cynlaef huffs and looks away. He doesn't know if he trusts the omega's words. He doesn't think Athelstan would exactly lie to him. He's not sure if the omega ever has. But he does get the feeling the prince would bend the truth a little to make him feel better. He knows just from stroking himself how big his cock is and how much bigger his knot can get. He doesn’t understand how it can fit inside someone and not cause a lot of pain. And for quite some time, too. He remembers being a little hazy from the omega’s scent but he knows they were locked together for a little while at least. He’s not sure how long. But it had to have hurt. Didn’t it? Except Athelstan did say it felt good. And he remembers the omega’s reaction. He wonders if it only feels good to an omega. He wonders if it would feel good if Athelstan fucked him. Except the omega doesn’t have a knot. But Osbert does... Cynlaef’s eyes widen and his face flushes darker as he suddenly can’t get the image out of his head.

Athelstan raises an eyebrow as he watches the expression shift on the alpha’s face. Then the bright red hue makes the omega curious. He tilts his head and smiles. “What are you thinking about?”

Cynlaef’s eyes widen and he shakes his head. His blush darkens and he looks away. He definitely doesn’t want the omega to know he’s thinking about what it might feel like to be knotted. By Osbert.

“Me?” Athelstan asks slowly.

Cynlaef sucks in a sharp breath and opens his mouth. But he can’t get anything more than a squeak out and he promptly snaps his mouth shut and turns away again.

Athelstan tilts his head the other way, thinking. Then his lips twist into a smirk. “You’re not thinking about me… you’re thinking about Osbert… and his cock, aren’t you?” He asks slowly and watches the alpha’s blush darken even more. “You wanna know what it feels like to take a knot, don’t you?”

Cynlaef groans and twists out of Athelstan’s arms. He doesn’t push the omega off but he does push himself back on the bed and throws an arm over his face, hiding. Because yes, the omega can read him so well and he’s mildly annoyed by it.

Athelstan giggles as he leans over the alpha. He can feel the other boy’s cock harden under him and he wiggles a little. Cynlaef lets out a low moan and Athelstan dips his head down to drag his lips over the alpha’s nipple. “You want Osbert to hold you down and fuck you and knot you like you did to me, huh? You wanna be locked on his knot, don’t you?” He asks but doesn’t get more than a whine from the boy under him. “Answer me, alpha!”

“Yes!” Cynlaef groans as he feels the omega’s wiggling making his cock throb harder.

“Hang on.” Athelstan pushes himself up suddenly and bounces off the bed.

Cynlaef groans as he turns to watch the omega. “Seriously?” He hisses with a whine in his voice. “After all that? You’re gonna leave me hanging?”

Athelstan giggles as he darts over to the door. He unlocks it and opens it a few inches, keeping himself hidden behind it. He peers out and smirks. “Hey.” He says before he opens the door wide and reaches for the stunned looking alpha standing in the hall. He yanks the other boy inside and shuts the door.

Osbert stumbles a little and turns to gawk at the naked omega. His face flushes quickly and his eyes widen. “I uh… I… how did you know I was…” He asks, trying to advert his gaze.

Athelstan locks the door before he turns around and smiles at him. “You can look.” He says, sliding closer. “And I knew you were out there creeping for like 10 minutes.”

Osbert frowns and crosses his arms. “I was trying to get up the nerve to knock. You’ve uh… you’ve been in here for a while.” He says softly and clears his throat. “I saw the trays of food and water set in front of your door a few times… and then they’d be empty and someone would bring more…”

Athelstan licks his lips slowly as he slides even closer to the alpha. “I went into heat for the first time.”

Osbert clenches his jaw as he lets his eyes roam down over the omega’s naked body again. “I… I thought maybe…”

“I think it might be over…” Athelstan says as he smirks at the alpha. “I don’t know… I was told by the healer my first would be intense but short…” He trails off.

Osbert reaches a hand out towards the omega. He touches Athelstan’s arm and gently slides his fingers down over the other boy’s skin. “Are you okay?” He asks softly. Athelstan smiles and nods and the alpha leans closer. He lets his gaze flick over his shoulder for just a moment before he looks back at Athelstan. “Did he take care of you?”

Athelstan hums and nods. “He took very good care of me. Thank you for telling me what he couldn’t bring himself to.”

Osbert nods. “He’s far too shy and quiet for his own good.”

Cynlaef huffs before he can stop himself. “I can hear you!” He hisses before his eyes widen. He promptly claps a hand over his mouth and groans. He rolls over and pulls the blanket closer, wanting to hide. He prays to all the Gods above and below that the other alpha didn’t hear any of their conversation from the hall.

Osbert smiles before he dips his head. “I will leave you two alone now. I didn’t mean to interrupt, I just wanted to check on you…”

“Or…” Athelstan slithers closer quickly and licks his lips. He slips one arm around the alpha’s neck and the other he places right on the other boy’s crotch. He watches Osbert’s eyes widen and darken a little as he rubs the alpha’s cock through the fabric. “You can stay and join us.”

Osbert clenches his jaw. “Stay…” He repeats slowly.

Athelstan smirks and nods. “Laef was just telling me how curious he was about your knot and what it would feel like for you to fuck him.”

“Lord!” Cynlaef gasps, sitting up quickly. All hope of Osbert not hearing shatters as Athelstan speaks the words himself. He feels his heart beating so fast, he thinks he might pass out right there in the prince’s bed. And wouldn’t that be funny. “Don’t tell him that!”

Athelstan shrugs. “It’s true!”

Cynlaef shakes his head. “I didn’t say anything! You said it!”

Athelstan giggles and shrugs again. “And you said yes!”

Cynlaef groans and rolls over on the bed again. He pulls the blanket up over himself completely, hiding. He prays for the ground to open up and swallow him whole. Let the Gods take mercy on him and just end him there before he hears the disgust in the other alpha’s voice. Because he’s certain he will.

Athelstan’s eyes widen. He pushes around Osbert quickly and steps closer to the bed. “Laef… I’m sorry.” He says softly. “Please come out. I promise I won’t tease you anymore if you stop hiding.”

Osbert turns slowly, feeling a prick of guilt. He shouldn’t have disrupted them. “I… I can leave.” He says softly.

“No!” Cynlaef pokes his head out. Because he doesn’t hear disgust in the other boy. He thinks he hears genuine regret. And maybe something else. “You… you don’t have to leave, Osbert. Stay… if… if you want to.”

“If you want me too.” Osbert says.

Cynlaef’s blush darkens and he nods. “I do.”

Osbert smiles. “Good. Then yeah, I wanna stay.”

Cynlaef squeaks again and shifts his gaze to Athelstan. “I… I think… I think I like you teasing me.” He admits, his voice barely a whisper.

Athelstan smirks. “You do?”

Cynlaef sucks in a sharp breath. “Yeah.”

Athelstan smiles. “Then it’s okay… if I keep doing it?” Cynlaef nods and Athelstan steps closer. “And you’ll tell me to stop if I go too far?” Cynlaef starts to nod again and the omega shakes his head. “I need you to say it, Cynlaef. I need you to tell me this is all okay. I need to know you’ll stop me before I push you too far.”

Cynlaef huffs and nods, looking away. “Yes! I… I like it but I’ll stop you if I don’t.”

“You’ll come out from under the blanket?” Athelstan asks.

Cynlaef squeals and ducks under the blanket again. “Yes…” He says, the world muffled.

Athelstan giggles. “You’ll have to come out if you want Osbert to fuck you.”

Osbert feels his face flush as he hears another squeak from the other alpha, still hiding. He clears his throat and turns back to the giggling omega. Athelstan is still standing there naked and the alpha can’t help the way his eyes roam over the other boy’s body.

Athelstan wiggles his hips a little as he slithers closer. Something about being naked in front of the alpha, about already going through his first heat, makes him feel a little bolder. His cock is already half hard and he leans closer to Osbert, rubbing himself against the alpha’s thigh. He wraps his arms around the alpha’s neck and presses a quick kiss to Osbert’s lips. “We just have to get you out of those clothes…”

Osbert doesn’t pull him away but he doesn’t touch the omega either. He stands there and stares at Athelstan. “You sure this isn’t too fast?” He asks softly. “We’ve barely done more than kiss a few times and hold hands… and all I’ve done with Laef is try to flirt with him.”

Cynlaef pokes out again. “You did what?”

Osbert turns, looking over his shoulder. “I tried to flirt with you a little.” He says.

Cynlaef frowns as he pulls the blanket off his head. “When?”

Osbert shrugs. “Whenever I could. I kept smiling at you… laughing at everything you said… I let you win all the time when we sparred… I tickled you a few times… kept touching you… I asked you to dance after the banquet last week, when we were all standing outside around the fire and they had the drum and harp players.”

Cynlaef sits up slowly. “Oh…” Realization slowly dawns on him as he remembers each time Osbert had been maybe a bit too friendly with him. “I… I thought… you were being nice… and joking.”

Osbert shrugs. “I’m not very good at flirting I guess.”

Athelstan giggles as he rubs his fingers up Osbert’s neck slowly. “He’s not very…” The omega trails off and tilts his head.

Cynlaef huffs. “You can say it.” He says sourly, hunching in on himself. “I’m dense.” He sighs and shakes his head. “Stupid, dumb, blind, awkward.”

Osbert glances back at the other alpha again. He frowns and shakes his head. “No! Just…”

“Shy and sweet.” Athelstan says.

Osbert nods his head. “Very.”

Cynlaef’s face flushes and he smiles. “I… I’ll try harder.” He says softly.

Athelstan leans against Osbert as he peers at Cynlaef. “Alpha, you’re plenty hard.”

Cynlaef’s face flushes more and he pulls the blanket over himself again. “Lord!”

Athelstan rolls his eyes and shakes his head. “Laef, I told you to stop calling me that.”

Osbert clears his throat. “If… if this is… too fast…”

Athelstan shrugs. “Laef and I already spent a whole day humping…”

“But that was during your heat.” Osbert points out, looking back at the omega. “That’s different. Athelstan… I don’t want to make anyone uncomfortable.”

The omega shakes his head. “You aren’t making me uncomfortable.”

Cynlaef sucks in a sharp breath as he pulls the blanket off. “I'm uh… not either.” He wants to hide. He considers it for a moment. Or jumping off the bed and running out the door. That seems like a much better option. Except he does like both of the other boys and he doesn't really want to leave.

“Doesn't sound very convincing.” The other alpha points out.

Cynlaef huffs out and shakes his head. He clears his throat as he slips off the bed. But the second his feet touch the floor, he’s reminded he’s completely naked. And all the teasing and embarrassment has made his erection flag. His cock hangs rather limply between his legs and he feels his whole body blush. He turns and glances back at the blanket on the bed, wanting to hide once again.

Athelstan giggles as he watches, reading the nervous alpha easily. “We can help with that.”

“Only if he wants.” Osbert says sternly, looking at the omega. “Athelstan, you need to stop pushing.”

“I’m not pushing!” The omega argues. “I’m teasing! He said I could tease him!”

Cynlaef clears his throat. “I did.” He says softly.

“Just wanna make sure that everyone wants to be here…” Osbert says and rolls his eyes at himself awkwardly. “You know what I mean.”

Athelstan tugs Osbert closer by his shirt and yanks on him until the alpha looks at him. “Do you wanna fuck Laef?”

Osbert glares at him. “Athel!”

Athelstan glares right back at him. “Answer the question, alpha!”

“Omega!” Osbert glares at him for a moment longer before he sighs and nods. “Yes. But only if he wants to.” He adds quickly.

Athelstan smirks. “Laef…”

“Yes!” Cynlaef says quickly, interrupting the omega. “And I mean yes I do, not yes because you said my name.” He explains all in one breath, hardly pausing. “I do, okay? I was afraid I hurt Athelstan because I remember him screaming but he says he’s fine and I know how big my knot gets and I was sure it had to hurt and I wondered what it would feel like if I let him fuck me instead except he doesn’t have a knot but Osbert does and that’s what I was thinking about and yes I want him to knot me like I did Athelstan… and don’t look at me now!” He says, turning his back to them.

“Laef…” Osbert can feel the other alpha’s embarrassment and nerves and he turns.

Athelstan blinks and shakes his head, breathing out slowly. He tugs on Osbert, getting the alpha to turn towards him again. “Give him a minute. That was a lot of words and thoughts for him.”

Osbert hums and nods. “It uh… it was.” He says softly.

Athelstan giggles as he leans harder against Osbert. “You like what he said, don’t you?” He asks, rubbing against the alpha. “I can feel your cock.” He says, rubbing his fingers over him.

Osbert nods and lets out a low moan, feeling the omega’s hands on him. “I uh… I do…”

“You want me too, right?” Athelstan asks softly, a hint of nerves in his voice. He tentatively presses his lips against the alpha’s, not sure for a moment where he really stands with the other boy. Osbert asked to court him. But the alpha also kept talking about Cynlaef. And Athelstan doesn’t mind sharing. Just as long as Osbert wants him as well.

Osbert nods, brushing his lips against the omega’s. “Yeah, I want you too. That hasn’t changed.”

Athelstan smiles. “You… you’re sure?”

The alpha smirks before he grabs Athelstan. He wraps his arms tightly around the omega and kisses him back. Athelstan moans loudly and tangles his fingers in the fabric of the alpha’s shirt. He pulls back, panting, and licks his lips. “Can you be naked now?”

Cynlaef doesn’t let the omega get the words out before he’s moving. He darts across the room and slides to a stop behind them. He stumbles a little and scowls at himself. But he pushes his nerves away and straightens up. “Can I… can I help?” He asks softly. “Can I touch you?”

Osbert glances over his shoulder. “Yeah, you can.”

Athelstan giggles. “So eager.”

Cynlaef blushes more and nods his head. He lifts his hand to the other alpha’s waist and twists his fingers in his shirt. He opens his mouth to ask but he can’t find the words. He snaps it shut and huffs out. Instead, he tugs at the fabric and lets out a whine. Athelstan nods as he lifts his hands to Osbert’s waist and starts tugging at his shirt as well. The alpha lifts his arms and the two pull his shirt off.

Athelstan purrs as he leans closer. He rubs his chest against Osbert’s and smirks at him and runs his fingers down the other boy’s skin. “That’s better.” He says as he leans around Osbert. He reaches for the other alpha and slides his fingers around the back of Cynlaef’s neck. “Kiss me?” He asks softly.

Cynlaef bites his bottom lip and nods. He lets the omega pull him closer until he’s flush against Osbert’s back. He can feel the alpha’s bare skin against his, feel the other boy’s heat, and he bites back a moan as Athelstan pulls on him. He opens his mouth and lets the omega take what he wants. Athelstan kisses him hard and fast and Cynlaef just hangs onto Osbert to ground himself as the omega practically attacks him.

Osbert chuckles between them. “Athel, let him breathe. And you’ve definitely solved his problem. I can feel him against my hip.”

Cynlaef pulls away, blushing. He cock is hard again, equally from the omega’s attention and the other alpha’s skin against his. “Sorry.” He mumbles, easing away from the other alpha.

“No!” Osbert says quickly and turns. He lifts his hand and brushes his fingers across the other alpha’s cheek. “Can I uh… can I kiss you?”

Cynlaef sucks in a sharp breath as he leans into the touch. He bites his bottom lip and nods. “I… I haven’t uh…” He sighs as he stumbles over the words and shakes his head. He pulls away from Osbert’s touch and huffs out. “I’m sorry I’m so nervous.”

“Don’t be.” The alpha smiles. “Sorry or nervous. You don’t have to be.” Osbert says softly. He leans closer and presses his lips to Cynlaef’s in a gentle, chaste kiss. Cynlaef melts and leans against him. Osbert chuckles against the other alpha’s lips as he snakes an arm around his waist, making sure Cynlaef doesn’t fall. He holds the alpha tight as he pulls back.

Cynlaef shakes his head and wraps an arm around Osbert’s neck, stopping him from moving. He pulls the other alpha down for another kiss. Hard and desperate and Osbert kisses him back. Cynlaef sighs as he pulls away and he blushes. “I haven’t… kissed anyone else… not before Athelstan… I haven’t… been… with anyone before either. That… that was… my first uh…” He trails off and bites his bottom lip.

“I haven’t either.” Osbert admits softly.

Athelstan hums from behind them. He leans against Osbert’s back and peers over the alpha’s shoulder at Cynlaef. “I told you… you were my first. I kissed Osbert first. And almost felt him up a little…”

Osbert snorts and tips his head back, leaning against the omega. “You certainly tried.”

Athelstan giggles and dips his head to the alpha’s neck. He presses his lips against the other boy’s skin and smiles. “You were the one with a stiffy.”

“You were sitting in my lap.” Osbert shakes his head and turns his attention back to Cynlaef. “We can go slow.”

Athelstan shrugs and huffs out, annoyed, as he pulls back. “Then you pushed me outta your lap.” He hisses under his breath.

Osbert rolls his eyes. “Because I was trying to ask to court you! I didn’t just wanna hump, Athel! I was trying to tell you I wanted you as my mate! Forever! And you just kept pawing at me!”

Athelstan sucks in a sharp breath. “That’s not going slow.” He mumbles.

“We can go slow.” Osbert repeats, his eyes on Cynlaef. “Or we can stop.” He adds.

Cynlaef glances between the two and fights the urge to smile. He can feel the warmth spreading through his chest at the idea of all three of them together. When Athelstan mentioned it, it was a fleeting thought he’d never considered before and could barely even fathom. The very idea that one of them let alone both would ever want him just seems like a dream. One he really wants to come true. He sucks in a sharp breath and holds it for a moment. “Do you want to?” He asks finally. “To stop?”

Osbert shakes his head. “No.” He answers evenly.

Cynlaef tilts his head. “Do you… want to uh… go slower?”

Osbert clenches his jaw. “If I answer honestly… it can’t affect your decision or change your mind.”

Cynlaef frowns for a moment, concerned he said the wrong thing and upset the other alpha. He shakes his head quickly. “It won’t. I swear.”

Osbert smiles and leans closer. He touches his forehead to Cynlaef and hums. “I don’t want to stop or slow down. I want you. Both of you.” He adds, glancing over his shoulder for a moment.

Cynlaef smiles. “I don’t want to either.” He says, leaning closer to kiss the other alpha again.

Athelstan smirks and licks his lips, watching them. “That’s so hot.” He says as he slides his fingers down the alpha’s back to his pants. “But we need to get Os naked now.”

Cynlaef pulls away from the other alpha and Osbert looks annoyed for a moment. Cynlaef smiles and giggles when Osbert tries to kiss him again. Cynlaef shakes his head as he takes a step back. He stumbles a little and feels awkward as he takes another step, moving closer to the bed. He’s not sure exactly how to be sexy. He’s not good at flirting and he has no idea if he’s even doing anything right. Except he catches the stare Obsert gives him. He swears he can feel the other boy’s gaze traveling up and down his body and Cynlaef falters. He stumbles a little over his feet and nearly falls but he catches himself quickly. He scowls and hears Athelstan giggling.

Osbert certainly doesn’t mind the other alpha’s awkwardness. He’s always kind of found it endearing. Something that he quite likes about the other alpha. He follows and reaches for Cynlaef. He wraps an arm around the other alpha and pulls him flush against him again. “You want this?”

Cynlaef nods quickly, bitting his bottom lip. “Yeah.”

Osbert smirks. “You want me?”

The other alpha nods again. “Yes.”

Osbert falters and tilts his head. “How uh… how do you… how do you want me to play this?”

Cynlaef frowns. “What do you mean?”

Osbert purses his lips and pauses. “Do you uh… I… like…” He breathes out and sighs. “How do you want me to act?” He asks, stepping closer. “Like… are we uh… playing a game? Do you want me to call you an omega or something?”

Cynlaef frowns again and shakes his head. “I… I don’t think so…” His eyes widen and he glances at Athelstan. “Not that there’s anything wrong with being an omega!” He adds quickly. “I just uh… don’t uh… want that…”

Athelstan smiles as he leans against Osbert’s back. “It’s okay, Laef. It’s just a question.”

Osbert nods. “I just… I’m trying to figure out what you want.”

“I… I don’t know.” Cynlaef admits softly.

“I just don’t want to upset you… or disappoint you.” Osbert says.

Cynlaef swallows. “What… what do you want?”

Osbert frowns. “Me?”

Cynlaef nods and bites his lip again. “Yeah. This… this uh… it’s your first time… would uh… would you rather… uh… later?” He asks awkwardly and his gaze flicks over the alpha’s shoulder to the omega smiling behind them. “You and Athelstan… uh… I can leave.”

Osbert blinks. “Oh… uh…”

Athelstan shakes his head. “He can do me next.” He says with a light giggle. “You asked first.”

Cynlaef blushes and he shakes his head. “I… I didn’t ask. You asked for me.”

The omega shrugs. “You still want him to.”

Cynlaef huffs out. “But… what does he want?”

Osbert swallows and licks his lips slowly. “I… I uh… I think… I might… want to boss you around a little.” He says slowly.

“Yeah?” Cynlaef tilts his head. “Me?”

Osbert nods. “I… I want you to uh… to submit to me… I… I really… like that idea.” He admits softly.

Cynlaed nods slowly. “I can do that…”

Osbert blinks. “You can?”

Cynlaef smiles and nods. “I can do that for you.”

Athelstan hums, liking the idea a lot. “You want him on his hands and knees, presenting to you.” Osbert doesn’t say anything but the way he looks away and the fast blush across his face is answer enough and the omega pinches him.

Cynlaef nods quickly. “Yeah, I can do that.” He says and nods again. “I can do that… alpha.” He says, adding the title.

Osbert closes his eyes and sucks in a sharp breath. His cock throbs at the title on the other alpha’s lips. He exhales and the sound morphs into a low moan. “Fuck…” He swallows.

Athelstan hums. “That’s the point. Now let's get these off you.” He slides his hands around to the front of the alpha’s chest. He digs his fingers into the other boy’s muscles as he slides them lower, down over his stomach.

Cynlaef smiles and grinds against him. “Come on, alpha. Show us that uh… your uh…” He trails off.

“Cock, Cynlaef.” Athelstan says in a teasing tone. “You can say cock.”

Cynlaef whines. “Lord…”

“Say it!” The omega snaps.

Cynlaef clenches his jaw. “Cock.” He says softly.

Athelstan hums and nods. “Good.” He says, slipping his hands under the fabric of the alpha’s pants. He tugs them down and Osbert grunts.

The alpha shifts between them and bends, quickly kicking his shoes off and stripping the last of his clothes off. Osbert huffs out as he straightens up, standing naked between them. “You’re taking too long.”

Athelstan smiles. “Just savoring you.” He says as he reaches around the alpha again. He wraps his fingers around the base of Osbert’s cock and gives him a squeeze. “Yes. Nice cock, alpha. Right, Cynlaef?” His gaze flits to meet Cynlaef’s and he smirks at the alpha as he tugs on Osbert’s cock.

Cynlaef nods his head. “Very uh… very… nice.” He says, trying to keep the waver out of his voice. He fails and clears his throat. But he doesn’t apologize and instead, wraps his fingers around the back of Osbert’s neck again tentatively and pulls him in for another kiss.

Osbert kisses the other alpha back before he pushes him away. Cynlaef frowns and opens his mouth but Osbert pushes him away. “Bed.” He snaps. “Now!” He adds with a low growl.

Cynlaef blinks and swallows. A shiver runs down his spine and he nods. He backs up another step and his thighs bump into the bed. He keeps his eyes on Osbert as he sits down. The other alpha nods at him and Cynlaef pulls himself up higher on the bed. “What uh…”

Osbert steps closer and lifts his arm. He touches Cynlaef’s knee and pinches him. “You know what I want.”

Cynlaef pulls his legs closer and breathes out slowly. He looks up at Osbert and clears his throat. “Just… uh… start… slow.” He says, unable to stop the waver in his voice.

Osbert touches Cynlaef’s forehead and gently drags his fingers down the side of his face. He hooks his fingers under the other alpha’s chin and tips his head back. “I’ll go as slow as you want, sweetheart. I won’t hurt you.”

Cynlaef dips his shoulders as he pushes himself up to his knees. He kneels on the bed and reaches for Osbert. “First times hurt.” He says softly, glancing sideways at Athelstan. The omega smirks and Cynlaef smiles back at him. “Kiss me.”

Osbert raises an eyebrow. “Me or him?”

“Both.” Cynlaef hardly gets the word out before Obsert kisses him. Hands wrap around him and he’s tugged away from the alpha and has just a moment before Athelstan is kissing him, the omega suddenly beside them. And then he’s grabbed by Osbert again and he gets passed back and forth between the two until Cynlaef is breathless and dizzy. He gasps and groans and pushes them away before he collapses back on the bed, trying to catch his breath.

Athelstan turns his attention to Osbert and attacks him. He kisses the alpha and runs his hands down his chest to his cock again, gripping him tightly.

“Athel…” Osbert’s panting as he twists out of the omega’s hold. He shakes his head and leans his forehead against Athelstan’s. He breathes in deeply and huffs out a haggard laugh. “If you keep doing that… I’m uh…” He clears his throat. “This is gonna be over embarrassingly fast.”

Athelstan rolls his eyes as he pushes the alpha away. “Alphas!” He throws up his arms as he turns and stomps over to his closet. He pulls open the doors and starts rifling.

Cynlaef sits up and frowns, watching him. “Athel?”

The omega finds what he’s looking for and closes the doors. Then he turns and waves an arm as he walks back towards them. He holds out a small vial and shoves it in Osbert’s hands. “I’m fine. Just playing.” He says.

Cynlaef watches curiously. “What’s that?”

“Oil.” Athelstan answers as he bounces on the bed. He climbs over Cynlaef and pushes the alpha down. “You don’t produce slick like me so… Os will need some help so he doesn’t hurt you.”

Cynlaef’s face flushes. “Oh.”

Athelstan giggles as he leans over him. “You are so adorable.” He says before kissing the blushing alpha. “God, I like kissing you.” He says, letting out a soft moan.

Cynlaef blinks up at him. “You… you do?”

The omega nods. “I like everything about you, Laef. Everything.” He repeats with a smirk.

Cynlaef rolls his eyes and pushes the giggling omega away. “Stop it.” He says, blushing.

Athelstan smirks. “You know I’m talking about…”

“Yes!” Cynlaef snaps. “I know you’re talking about my… my cock!”

Athelstan beams. “You said it!”

Cynlaef huffs out and nods. “I’m trying.”

The omega giggles again and dips down to press his lips against the alpha’s chest. He kisses his skin and hums. “Except this time… I was sorta talking about your knot.” He says, trailing his hands down the alpha’s chest to his stomach. He dips his fingers into Cynlaef’s belly button before he drifts low enough to wrap his fingers around the base of the alpha’s thick cock. “Feeling that inside me… being stuck with you inside me…” He moans again as he remembers it. “That was the best feeling in the whole world, Laef. The way you filled me up perfectly… fit perfectly… it was like… you were made for me… or I was made for you. Or something.” He mumbles, shaking his head. He breathes out and hums as he idly strokes the alpha’s cock.

“Athelstan…” Cynlaef whines the omega’s name.

The omega shakes himself as he slips off the alpha, detaching himself and sitting beside him on the bed. Cynlaef moves to sit up and Athelstan stops him. “No.” He pushes Cynlaef back down and slaps his hip. “Now roll over. Alpha wants you on your hands and knees.”

Cynlaef’s eyes widen and he clenches his jaw. He says nothing but he nods and rolls over.

Osbert freezes when Athelstan hands him the oil. He stares down at it and suddenly, everything feels real, so much more real. He swallows and feels a lump sinking into the pit of his stomach. He knows he said yes. And he meant it, he said he was ready and he wanted to stay and he wanted to fuck Cynlaef. He said those words and he meant them when he said them. He thinks he means them still. Except he’s realizing now how much he really likes Cynlaef. And he doesn’t just want the other alpha to occasionally fuck and share Athelstan with. He wants Cynlaef as his mate, just as much as he wants the omega. It’s not just an attraction or a crush. He wants to court the alpha too. And Osbert doesn’t think he should start a potential relationship with sex.

Athelstan is the first to notice the shift in the other alpha. “Os?” He says the other boy’s nickname softly. “Hey Osbert. What’s wrong?”

The alpha swallows and shakes his head. “I don’t think I can do this.”

Cynlaef glances over his shoulder. “What?”

Osbert shakes his head again. “It’s not… not right… not… proper.” He says awkwardly.

Athelstan rolls his eyes. “Oh my fucking God! Not you too!” He throws up his hands dramatically and shakes his head. “Do I have to convince you too? It’s okay! Status doesn’t matter!”

Osbert sighs. “It’s not that.”

“What is it then?” Athelstan continues. “Secondary gender doesn’t matter either! Sex is sex and it feels good. It doesn’t have to be just an omega and an alpha during heats or ruts. It doesn’t matter!”

Cynlaef rolls over and looks up at Osbert. “Os?”

Osbert steps closer and holds his hand out to Cynlaef. The other alpha frowns at him but he takes it and lets Osbert pull him back up off the bed. Osbert pulls him closer and sighs deeply. “Laef… I don’t want this to just be about sex.”

Cynlaef blinks. “But… that’s… that’s exactly what we’re doing…” He says, his voice shaking a little. “Or… were… going to do.” He adds and wonders what he did to mess this up.

“Laef… I like you.” Osbert says. “I really like you and it’s more than just sex or a crush.” He says softly and pauses. He sucks in a sharp breath and wills himself to have the courage to say it. “I… I want you…” He exhales sharply. “I want you as a mate.” He forces out.

Cynlaef’s eyes widen. “What?”

“I want to court you.” Osbert adds.

Cynlaef blinks. “Me?”

“Yes.” The other alpha nods.

Cynlaef opens his mouth slowly as his mind reels from Osbert’s words. “But… alphas don’t court other alphas.”

Osbert shrugs. “Nothing says I can’t. It’s just… not… normal but I don’t care.”

Cynlaelf frowns and shakes his head. “But… you asked to court Athel.”

Osbert nods slowly. “I did. And I still want to.” He adds and smiles. “I want you both.”

Athelstan smirks, remembering saying the exact thing to Cynlaef earlier. He doesn’t want to choose between them. He wants them both. “Really?”

Osbert nods. “Yes.”

“But… why?” Cynlaef blurts out.

Osbert turns back to look at him. “Why?”

“Why me?” The other alpha repeats.

Osbert blinks at him. “I just said why. Because I like you.”

Athelstan rolls his eyes and shakes his head. “Cynlaef, don’t start again.”

“Sorry.” The alpha says, hanging his head.

Osbert smiles and lifts Cynlaef’s hand to his lips. He presses a kiss to his skin and smiles against him. “I don’t have a gift to prove my intention… I wasn’t expecting any of this when I came to check on Athelstan… but I mean it, Cynlaef. I want to court you.”

Cynlaef’s face flushes and he smiles shyly. “I don’t need anything.” He says softly.

Osbert smiles as he lowers Cynlaef’s hand and straightens up. “So… is that a yes?”

Cynlaef frowns and tilts his head. “Yes?” He repeats.

Athelstan rolls his eyes. “Os, you’ll have to actually ask him. Word for word. And maybe slowly. Really slowly.”

Osbert chuckles and lifts Cynlaef’s hand to kiss it again. “Can I court you, Cynlaef?”

Cynlaef opens his mouth and snaps it shut. He doesn’t trust his voice and he nods his head instead. He blinks, feeling tears in the corners of his eyes. He turns away and rubs his free hand over his face, trying to stop himself.

“Don’t.” Athelstan gets up on his knees and crawls to the edge of the bed. He grabs Cynlaef’s chin and tugs on him, making the alpha turn to look at him. “You’re pretty.” He says and Cynlaef snorts. “I said I wanted you to ask me…” He starts.

“Do you wanna court?” Cynlaef asks quickly, interrupting the omega. “Uh… me… with me…” He adds awkwardly.

Athelstan smiles. “I was about to ask you.”

Cynlaef’s eyes widen. “Sorry.”

Athelstan smacks him and the alpha ducks and rubs at his head. The omega breathes out and shakes his head. “Sometimes, Laef…” He mumbles and smiles. “But yes, I do.” He says and Cynlaef smiles. “We can all be courting each other together.”

Cynlaef hums. “I like that.”

Osbert nods. “Me too.”

Cynlaef smiles and turns his gaze back to the other alpha. He clears his throat. “So… uh… you uh… you really wanna stop?” He asks slowly, unable to hide the disappointment in his voice.

Osbert sucks in a sharp breath. “I… I just don’t want this to be about sex.”

Cynlaef dips his head and shrugs. “It… it’s not just about sex… it’s… it’s about all of us… uh… courting… but also… sex…”

Osbert shakes his head. “I don’t think…”

“I want to…” Cynlaef interrupts, stepping closer. He tips his head back and smiles. “I really, really want to… I uh… I really want you, too…”

Osbert clenches his jaw. “But… should we… if we’re just starting to court? Isn’t that rushing?”

Cynlaef shrugs again. “Athel and I already did it.”

“We did.” The omega nods. “A lot. Os really needs a turn. With both of us. It’s only fair.” He says, nodding.

“Unless you don’t want to anymore.” Cynlaef adds.

Osbert sucks in a sharp breath. “I… I want to… unless you think…”

“No!” Cynlaef snaps, his voice louder. He steps closer and snakes a hand around the other alpha’s neck. He grips him tightly and yanks him closer. “No more going around and around. No more thinking it’s not right or proper or whatever. No more doubts or fears.”

Athelstan laughs. “Are you talking to him or yourself?”

“From any of us.” Cynlaef adds, trying to believe his own words. “Just what we want. No more overthinking anything. Okay?”

“Laef…” Osbert starts.

“No more overthinking anything!” The alpha repeats louder with a growl in his voice. “Okay?” He threads his fingers in Osbert’s short hair and yanks his head back.

“Fuck!” Osbert hisses and the sound morphs into a moan.

Cynlaef growls again. “Alpha!”

“Okay!” Osbert snaps.

Cynlaelf narrows his eyes. “Do you wanna fuck?” He asks, letting him go.

Osbert nods. “Yes.”

“Now?” Cynlaef asks.

“Yes.” Osbert nods again.

“Both of us?” The other alpha adds.

Osbert sucks in a sharp breath as he nods for a third time. “Yes.”

Cynlaef turns to look at the omega. “Athelstan?”

“Fuck yes, to everything.” Athelstan answers without any hesitation.

Cynlaef huffs and nods. “Good.”

“Laef?” Osbert says his nickname softly.

Cynlaef wraps his hand around the base of Osbert’s hardening cock and tugs on him roughly. He earns another hissed moan from the other alpha and smirks as he nods his head. “Right now.”

“Cynlaef, that’s not a yes.” The omega kneeling on the bed says stubbornly.

Cynlaef growls and glares over his shoulder at the omega. He snaps his teeth and nods his head. “Yes!”

Athelstan smiles and leans closer. He kisses his cheek and giggles. “That’s a good boy. Laef taking control and telling us exactly what you want and making us say it too. Very hot.”

Osbert swallows and nods. “Yeah… hot…” The other alpha says, his voice low and thick.

Cynlaef turns back to the other alpha and tugs on his cock again, making Osbert moan. “Good. Now, alpha. Oil up… and… uh…” He feels himself faltering and breaking and he lets out a squeak. His face flushes and he lets go of Osbert. “Sorry.” He mumbles, stepping back.

Athelstan smiles and leans against his shoulder. He pulls the alpha closer and kisses his cheek. “Perfect.” The omega purrs. Cynlaef blushes and pushes the giggling omega away.

Osbert sucks in a sharp breath as he glances down at the oil still in his hand. He exhales and nods, determined to do what Cynlaef says and stop trying to overthink everything. Cynlaef and Athelstan already spent the omega’s heat together and they weren’t even courting at the time. So yes, Cynlaef is right. It doesn’t matter that they just began. They’ve been dancing around each other for a while now, even if the other alpha has been a little dense about it. “On the bed, Laef.” He says, trying to keep his voice from shaking. “Now.”

Cynlaef glances at Osbert and watches as the other alpha opens the bottle of oil. His eyes widen and he hungrily watches as Osbert pours some in his hand. Then he watches as the other alpha spreads the oil over his fingers and he sucks in a sharp breath. He feels Athelstan giggling against his shoulder and he huffs out, shaking his head. “Stop it.” He hisses as he turns. But there’s no malice in him or in the omega, he knows. He hopes in the future, he can learn to control his nerves and shyness because he doesn’t want to disappoint them ever and next time… Cynlaef clenches his jaw as he forces that from his mind because that is even more scary.

“Just get on the bed.” Athelstan says softly. “And stop thinking, just like you said. I’ll make sure he takes good care of you, Laef.” He presses his lips against Cynlaef’s shoulder, kissing his skin.

Cynlaef opens his mouth but only manages another embarrassing squeak. He snaps his jaw shut and huffs out. He shivers and nods. He likes the omega's voice, his words, and his scent. Just as much as the other alpha. And he wonders just how long he has liked them both and just not realized it. But then he feels Athelstan poking his side and he nods again. It's honestly a mystery how anyone can like him at all. He quickly climbs on the bed before he starts thinking too much again.

Athelstan squeals as he scoots back, giving Cynlaef room. Once the alpha is on his hands and knees, the omega crawls closer again. He leans over Cynlaef’s back and presses a kiss between his shoulder blades. He feels the other boy tense up and then relax almost immediately under him and he hums. Then he trails his lips lower, moving down Cynlaef’s spine. He pauses at the alpha’s ass for just a moment before he sticks out his tongue. He brings his hands to the other boy’s ass and pulls his cheeks apart. He feels Cynlaef stiffen under him but the alpha doesn’t stop him. Athelstan isn’t even sure the other boy is breathing. He lifts his head a few inches. “Breathe, Laef.” He says softly.

“I… I’m… I’m t-t-trying.” The alpha stutters out.

“Breathe, baby.” The omega coos. “And we’ll make you feel good.” He adds slowly, letting his breath ghost across Cynlaef’s skin. The alpha shivers under him again and he smiles. He lowers himself again and touches his tongue to the strip of skin just below the alpha’s puckered hole. He feels Cynlaef jolt under him but he doesn’t stop. He licks him again before flattening his tongue and pressing harder. He licks a slow line up and flicks the tip over Cynlaef’s entrance.

Cynlaef is trying to relax and breathe. He really is. But when he feels the tongue on him, he forgets everything. He thinks he stops breathing altogether when the omega licks him again and then another time, even slower. And then he feels Athelstan’s sinful tongue circling his rim before pressing harder against his hole. Cynlaef feels the tongue breach him and he moans loudly. He presses his face harder against the bed, trying to muffle the sound. He’s not sure why it feels so good. He’s not sure if it should. He honestly thought he wouldn’t get much feeling being touched there. He’s always assumed it was an omega thing. But as Athelstan licks into him, stretching him and slobbering all over him, he knows he is wrong. He’s wrong about so many things and he hopes they can forgive him and put up with him and not abandon him and… “Fuuuuck…” He strings out as he feels fingers on him, stroking his skin. They drag down to his balls cupping and groping. Athelstan’s touch alternates between soft, gentle, teasing, and hard, rough, and almost painful in a good way. It leaves the alpha breathless and he’s panting and grinding back against the omega, unable to form any coherent thoughts.

“Athelstan…” Osbert steps closer. “Athel… omega.” He says the term louder when he doesn’t get a reaction. He grabs Athelstan’s shoulder and tugs on him. “Honey, ease up for a moment.”

Athelstan huffs but lets Osbert pull him away. He glares up at the alpha before wiping the back of his hand over his face. Then he pouts and tips his head back. “But I want him!”

Osbert smiles. “You can have him if he says yes.” He says and shakes his head when Athelstan pouts more. He chuckles softly as he looks at Cynlaef. “Laef? You okay?”

The alpha pants and nods. “Yeah.” He forces out, having to concentrate way too much to form the word.

“Do you want Athelstan to continue?” Osbert asks.

Cynlaef swallows and shakes his head. “No…”

Athelstan frowns. “Did… did I do it wrong?” He asks, worried for a moment.

Cynlaef shakes his head again. “No… it… uh… it felt… too good…”

The omega smiles. “It did?”

Cynlaef swallows and nods. “Never uh… felt anything like it… I uh… almost uh…”

Athelstan raises an eyebrow. “Already?”

Cynlaef groans and nods, pressing his face against the bed. “Sorry.” He mumbles, his voice muffled.

“Don’t be sorry, baby.” Athelstan purrs as he pinches him, making the alpha jump. “That’s really hot. So worked up for alpha’s cock.”

Cynlaef squeals and nods. “You uh… too… for you… I mean… both…”

Athelstan giggles and nods. “We understand, baby. You still want Os?”

“Yeah.” Cynlaef breathes out.

“Good.” Athelstan turns and snatches the bottle of oil out of Osbert’s hands. The alpha’s attention is on Cynlaef and he doesn’t notice the omega moving until Athelstan holds the oil and tips some into his hand. He closes it and drops it on the bed before he reaches for Osbert. He’s not the least bit shy as he grabs the alpha’s cock. Osbert’s eyes widen and the omega giggles. He strokes the other boy’s cock with long, determined strokes, making sure to coat every inch of him in oil. And maybe he’s enjoying having his hands on the alpha more than he wants to admit. He wants to rub himself all over Osbert. Or have the alpha rub on him. He still doesn’t think he wants to be mated to them, not just yet. He thinks he’s not ready for that step. But he likes the idea of dating them both, of all of them courting each other.

“Athel…” Osbert grunts and thrusts his hips against the omega’s grip. “Fuck… that… that feels… shit…” The alpha moans and pants as he leans against the omega’s shoulder. He’s never been touched by anyone else before except himself. And the one time Athelstan attempted to grope him. But he’d been fully dressed that time. It was nothing like the feeling of their hands on him, teasing him. “If you… if you don’t stop… fuck!”

Athelstan giggles and hums as he lets the alpha’s cock go reluctantly. Because he doesn’t want to ever let him go. But he does and scoots back on the bed. “Do you uh… want me to uh… leave?” The omega asks awkwardly.

Osbert breathes out, collecting himself. He hears the omega’s question and he shakes his head quickly. “No… just uh… uh…”

“I can let you two play.” The omega says and holds up his hands. “I can stay over here by myself.”

“No…” Osbert starts.

“I don’t mind!” Athelstan interrupts. “Laef and I had our time together and you didn’t uh… bother us…”

Osbert shakes his head as he steps closer to the bed. He reaches for the omega and Athelstan leans closer until the alpha cups his cheek. “You could never bother me, Athel.”

“Me neither.” Cynlaef says quickly, sounding a little impatient.

Athelstan sighs as he leans into Osbert’s touch. “Are you… are you sure?”

Osbert hums and nods. “I just wanted to make sure… I didn’t fuck it up… before… before uh..” He clears his throat. “And you are very distracting.” He grumbles.

The omega smiles. “Alright.” He says and tips his head enough to press his lips to Osbert’s palm. “So you just concentrate on Laef, okay?” He says before he pulls away. “I’ll just be over here and watch for a while and then maybe…”

Cynlaef clenches his jaw. He sits up and glares over his shoulder at the omega. “Athelstan… please… just… shut up and let him uh… fuck me! Please!”

Athelstan blinks as his gaze flits to the flushed alpha. “Oh… so impatient…”

Cynlaef groans and throws up his arms. “After all this teasing and waiting… yes! I am! So someone better fuck me or I’ll just jerk off…”

Osbert climbs on the bed behind him and thumps the other alpha on the shoulder. “Back on your hands and knees, Laef. Now!” He growls.

Cynlaef shivers and nods. “Yeah, yeah, okay, alpha.” His arms shake a little and his palms feel sweaty. He scowls at himself as he rubs his hands on his thighs. But he still feels awkward and out of his element.

Osbert leans closer and wraps his arms around the other alpha’s waist. Cynlaef gasps and Osbert hugs him close, inadvertently grinding his cock against his ass. He presses his lips to the alpha’s ear and smiles. “Don’t be nervous.” He says softly, feeding the words into Cynlaef’s ear. “One word and I’ll stop. If you don’t like it… okay?”

Cynlaef leans back against him and pants, feeling Osbert’s hard cock against him. He licks his lips and nods. “Okay.” He pants out. “Just… just slow, okay? You can boss me around and make me submit… but just… go slow when you uh… when you… stick it… inside me…”

Osbert chuckles and nods. “I can do that, sweetheart.” He whispers before he pulls away. Then he lets go of Cynlaef and pushes the other alpha. He growls deeply and flashes his teeth. “Down!” He snaps.

Cynlaef fumbles for a moment and a shiver runs down his spine at Osbert’s quick change and the tone of his voice. He bites his lip and nods, panting a little. He leans forward until his palms touch the mattress.

“Down!” Osbert repeats, pressing on Cynlaef’s back.

The alpha lets out a grunt as he’s pushed down harder. He turns his neck and presses his face against the bed, along with his chest. He blushes as he feels Osbert shuffling closer. He’s very aware that the new position has his ass straight up in the air, on full display, and he sucks in a sharp breath. But then there’s a hand reaching for the stretch of skin between his shoulder blades. The touch is gentle and trails down his spine to his lower back. And it seems to calm him a little. Until the fingers are removed and he feels a sharp slap to his ass. He flinches and lets out a low moan at the sting.

Osbert smirks and slaps him again before he leans back. He sits back on his feet and wraps his fingers around the base of his cock. He slowly strokes himself and hums. “Alright, boy. Show me that hole of yours.”

“I… what?” Cynlaef stutters, his brain not focusing on the words.

Osbert shakes his head slowly. “Spread your cheeks for me so I can see how well the omega did.”

Cynlaef blinks. “Oh… uh…” He swallows and sucks in a sharp breath. He closes his eyes tight as he lifts his hands. He reaches around behind himself and does as he’s told. He feels his face flush as he grabs his ass and pulls his cheeks apart, putting himself on full display for the other alpha.

Osbert hums and lets out a low moan. He really likes seeing the other alpha like that. He really, really does. He feels his cock harden more as he watches Cynlaef move. He strokes himself again and sucks in a sharp breath. He’s already leaking precum. More than he ever has before just jerking off. “Fuck, Laef.” He breathes out, his tone softening. “Every part of you is beautiful, sweetheart. Don’t feel shame or embarrassment. You’re perfect.”

Athelstan tentatively crawls closer until he can lean over. “He is.” He agrees and smiles. “So how did I do?”

Osbert lifts his free hand to Cynlaef’s ass and presses two fingers inside the other alpha. Cynlaef’s reaction is immediate. He pulls his hands away and lets out a moan, pushing back against Osbert. The other alpha raises an eyebrow and smirks as he digs his fingers in deeper for a moment before pulling them out.

“Sorry!” Cynlaef pants, thinking he’s messed up. He shouldn’t have moved but he really liked Osbert’s touch.

“You’re fine.” Osbert says quickly. “You can relax. Arms back down on the bed, sweetheart.”

“Fuck… he’s so hot.” Athelstan purrs as he leans against Osbert’s shoulder. “I wish it hadn’t taken so long for you to tell me he liked me.”

Osbert smirks as he rubs his shoulder against Athelstan’s. “I wish I was better at flirting so he knew I was flirting.”

Athelstan giggles. “It wouldn’t have helped. He wouldn’t notice.”

Osbert nods slowly and then blinks. He rolls his eyes and shakes his head as he pushes the omega away. “Stop distracting me!” He hisses and Athelstan just flops over on his back, laughing. The alpha huffs and shakes his head again. “Sorry, Laef.” He mumbles, feeling like he spoiled the moment.

Cynlaef cranes his neck enough to look back at the other boy and despite his obvious frustration, he can’t help the smile curling his lips. “I’ll forgive you both if you uh… if you fuck me now…” He wiggles his hips a little and he’s very aware of his cock swinging between his legs. He can feel his head drag against the sheets under him and he moans at the sensation. And he’s pretty sure he’s leaking and staining the prince’s bed.

Osbert smirks as he pushes himself up from his odd sitting position. He brings himself closer to Cynlaef and places a hand on the other alpha’s ass. “I can do that.” He says as he grips himself harder. He guides the head of his cock to Cynlaef’s hole and pauses. He sucks in a sharp breath and exhales it slowly. “You ready for me?” He asks, his voice low.

Cynlaef huffs out. “What did I just say?” He says impatiently and wiggles again.

“Just asking.” Osbert says as he presses against the other alpha’s entrance. Cynlaef’s hole doesn’t give right away and Osbert tentatively pushes a little harder until his head pops inside. His eyes widen and he stops, worrying about hurting the other alpha.

Cynlaef exhales and shakes his head, rubbing his face against the bed. It’s much different than a tongue or fingers. He feels a little overwhelmed already and he knows the alpha above him has much more to go. He swallows and groans. “Don’t uh… don’t stop… just… go slow.”

“O-o-okay.” Osbert pushes again and Cynlaef’s rim gives and stretches around him. He slowly eases more of his cock into the other alpha. He pauses again but hears an irritated grunt from the boy under him. He clenches his jaw and moves again until he can’t anymore. His hips rest against Cynlaef and Osbert blinks. He brings his hands to the other boy’s hips and slowly rubs his fingers over his skin, ignoring himself and focusing only on Cynlaef. “Still okay?” He asks, making sure not to move.

Cynlaef huffs out and nods. “Yeah.” He pants out, getting his arms under him. He pushes himself up a little, leaning on his elbows, as he tries to focus on anything else except for the fact that he has Osbert’s cock inside him. Very deep inside him. Because fuck…

Athelstan’s hand is on his cock and the omega is lazily stroking himself as he watches. He thinks he likes watching them maybe more than he should. But he doesn’t really care. Because both of these boys are his and he really likes that. “What’s he feel like, Laef?” He asks, his tone light.

Cynlaef swallows and his mind struggles for a moment to come up with an answer. Because it doesn’t exactly hurt. But it feels weird and awkward. And he might like it. But maybe he should have started with Athelstan, who’s a little smaller and doesn’t have a knot. Except the omega had taken him just fine. Mostly fine, at least. And Cynlaef is just a mess. He exhales and takes another moment before he answers. “Big.”

“Big?” Athelstan repeats and giggles. “Honey, he’s gonna get bigger.”

Cynlaef groans and nods. “Yeah… I… I know.”

Osbert feels a pang of regret and he sighs. “Do you wanna stop?”

“No!” Cynlaef says quickly. “Just uh…”

Athelstan drops to his hands and knees and crawls closer. He rolls over on his back and wiggles, scooting along the bed until he’s pressed against Cynlaef’s side. The alpha lifts his head and peers at the omega. Athelstan smiles as he brushes his fingers over the alpha’s forehead and down his cheek. “Breathe, okay?” He says softly. “First time hurts and it might be uncomfortable, but remember what I said, okay? It’ll feel better when he starts moving again.” He leans closer and presses his lips against Cynlaef’s ear. “And it’ll feel amazing when he knots you and fills you up with his seed.”

Cynlaef’s face flushes and he lets out a low moan at the omega’s words. “Fuck… Athelstan!” He says with a whine and the omega giggles.

Osbert raises an eyebrow. He didn’t catch most of Athelstan’s words but he did catch Cynlaef’s reaction. “Athel. You said you wouldn’t distract.”

“Just a little to help him relax.” The omega says before he lowers his voice and whispers into the alpha’s ear again. “And then you’ll be locked together and he’ll wrap his arms around you and hold you until his knot goes down.”

Cynlaef shivers worse at that. He licks his lips and nods. “Fuck… okay… okay, alpha…”

“Okay?” Osbert repeats.

Cynlaef pants and nods, closing his eyes tight. “Yeah. You can uh… you can… move…”

Osbert drags his fingers over Cynlaef’s skin again. He’s been paying attention to Cynlaef only, ignoring himself. But hearing that the other alpha is okay, that he hasn’t hurt him yet, and that Cynlaef’s given him permission to move, has the alpha groaning. He feels the tight heat wrapped around his cock and he allows himself a moment to focus on it, to savor the way the other alpha’s body fits him. He leans back just enough to look down and he slowly pulls his hips back. He keeps going until his head catches on the other alpha’s rim. He pauses for just a moment before he slowly moves again. He watches the way Cynlaef sucks him back in and he sucks in a sharp breath.

Athelstan watches the emotions play on Cynlaef’s face. He sees the tension release a little and sees the other boy biting his bottom lip. “Os, how’s he feel?” He asks, leaning away from Cynlaef enough to look up at the other alpha.

“Perfect.” The alpha answers as he pulls back and slowly sinks in again. He hears a low moan from Cynlaef and he smirks. “He’s doing so good, taking me so well.”

“Yes he is.” Athelstan hums as he grabs Cynlaef’s arm. He lifts it and the alpha frowns at him for a moment as he slithers partially under him. He lets go before he snakes his arm around Cynlaef’s neck and pulls him in for a kiss.

Cynlaef doesn’t react right away. He’s too focused on the feeling of Osbert’s cock inside him. It doesn’t hurt. It doesn’t feel awkward anymore. He thinks his body has adjusted to the intrusion. And he thinks he wants the other alpha to let go a little and fuck him harder. But then Athelstan is pulling on him, licking into him and he can’t help the moan that escapes him. The omega swallows the sound and digs fingers into his neck as he kisses him again. Cynlaef pulls away just long enough to pant out the word, “Harder…” before he kisses the omega again.

Osbert brings his hands to Cynlaef’s hips again as he pulls out. He digs his finger into the other alpha’s skin as he snaps his hips forward, thrusting his cock to the hilt into him in one smooth motion. He doesn’t pause or slow down as he pulls out and does it again. He continues and after a few thrusts, Cynlaef starts pushing back against him impatiently. Osbert grunts and doubts his efforts, slamming into the other boy, not worrying about hurting him anymore. His movements elicit moans from the alpha beneath him. The sounds are mostly muffled, their omega still attached to him. “Fuck, Laef.” Osbert says, snapping his hips forward as hard as he can. He grunts and leans harder against the other boy. He can feel his knot swelling and nothing has ever felt so good. He knows he’s not gonna last much longer.

Cynlaef gasps suddenly, pulling away from Athelstan. He shuts his eyes and dips his head, brushing against the omega’s chest. For just a moment, he can’t breathe. Osbert thrusts into him again and his cock hits that spot inside him again and Cynlaef’s body stiffens. Each thrust of the other alpha’s hips forces his cock deeper into him, each drag hitting nerves Cynlaef didn’t know he had. He had no idea it could ever feel so good. Alphas are meant for fucking, not being fucked. But he thinks he wants to beg Osbert to fuck him ever day for the rest of their lives if it always feels this good.

Athelstan frowns. “Laef?”

Laef groans and shakes his head. “Don’t…”

“Don’t what?” Athelstan asks, his eyes widening in worry. “Cynlaef, are you…”

“Don’t stop…” The alpha gasps as Osbert’s cock brushes against his sweet spot again. He’s so close, he feels his cock throbbing and it hasn’t even been touched since they climbed on the bed. “Fuck… don’t… let… him stop…” He pants.

Athelstan smirks as he wraps his arm tighter around Cynlaef. He holds the alpha tight against him as he looks over him at Osbert. “He says don’t stop.”

Osbert grunts as he yanks on Cynlaef’s hips, shoving himself inside him again. “Wasn’t planning on it.” He says through gritted teeth.

“Fuck, you’re so hot, Os.” Athelstan says with a low moan. The alpha smirks at him and Athelstan moans again from the look alone. The sheen of sweat on the alpha’s skin is driving him crazy. He sees a bead dripping down the center of Osbert's chest and he wants to lick it off. “I’d love to watch you knot him…”

Cynlaef moans and shakes his head, rubbing himself against Athelstan. “Don’t…” He gasps.

Athelstan smirks and clicks his tongue. “Don’t worry. I’m not letting you go.” He says, tightening his grip. He feels the moan rumbling from the alpha’s chest and he snakes his other hand under him. “Just let go, Laef.” He says, dragging his lips to Cynlaef’s ear. “I got you, sweetheart.” He whispers as his fumbling fingers blindly wrap around the alpha’s dripping cock.

Cynlaef moans when he feels the hand on his cock. The omega strokes him hard and sloppily. The angle is odd and Athelstan can’t exactly get a good grip but it doesn’t matter. Cynlaef’s already too close to the edge to even try to hold back. Athelstan’s fingers twist over the head of his cock and Osbert’s cock bumps over his prostate and he swears he sees stars. He gasps, moans, grunts, and several other unintelligible sounds escape him as he rides out the most intense orgasm he’s experienced. And he promptly collapses against the omega under him.

“Fuck…” Athelstan groans, as he holds Cynlaef through it. He swears he can feel more than just the alpha’s cock twitching in his hand and the cum dripping over his fingers. He loves the feeling of it, of the alpha against him. “Laef?” He says softly and the alpha just groans. Athelstan smirks. “Good?” He doesn’t get an answer, just another groan and an attempt at a nod and the omega giggles. “Os?”

The alpha’s slumped over Cynlaef, having paused the moment the other alpha’s body constricted around him. Cynlaef’s fluttering channel is so tight, it’s almost painful. “Fuck… Laef…”

“You okay?” The omega asks.

“Yeah.” Osbert hums with a smirk. “He’s just wrapped so tight around me, trying to kill me.” But even as he says it, he can feel Cynlaef’s channel loosening, relaxing around him. He tentatively pulls back just a couple inches and eases himself back in.

Cynlaef lets out a low whimper under him but doesn’t stop him. “Please… alpha…”

Osbert falters, his cock throbbing at the title on the other alpha’s lips. “Fuck… you can’t… you can’t just call me that!” He says with a whine. “Not now…”

Athelstan giggles as Cynlaef huffs out against him, sounding amused. Or maybe annoyed. Either way, the omega agrees. “You’re our alpha.” He says slowly, looking up at the alpha.

“I… I uh… I think… I like that…” Osbert says softly as he straightens back up. “I like being your alpha.” He says as he grips Cynlaef’s hips. “I really fucking like it.” He lets out a low growl as he pulls out and slams back into the boy underneath him. He leans heavily on Cynlaef as he thrusts his hips as hard and fast as he can. His knot catches on the alpha’s rim and stops and he growls again, snapping his hips harder. Osbert lets out a guttural groan as buries himself in the other alpha as deep as he can go. His knot finally pops past Cynlaef’s rim and Osbert grinds hard against him.

“Oh fuck!” Cynlaef groans as he feels the growing knot lodge inside him. “Fuck, fuck, fuck…”

Athelstan scrapes his fingers against the alpha’s scalp. “Breathe.” He says softly.

Cynlaef nods as he tucks his arms against Athelstan, holding onto the omega just as tightly. He tangles his fingers in the omega’s curly hair, grounding himself. He feels Osbert’s knot swelling inside him. He swears he can feel the other alpha’s entire cock growing and splitting him open. It feels indescribable and the knot presses hard against that sweet spot inside him as the alpha slowly grinds against him, still chasing his own release. Cynlaef shivers as he feels his cock twitch, painfully hard again, he realizes. Or maybe still. He’s not entirely sure it went down at all, even for a moment. But the alpha above him is still moving, still grinding, and it makes his cock drag between him and the omega. He opens his mouth but nothing comes out except a breathy pant as he cums a second time, streaking the omega’s chest.

Athelstan squeals, feeling it. “Did you just…”

“Oh fuck…” Osbert gasps as he feels Cynlaef tighten around him again. It’s just enough to shove him over the edge and he explodes inside the other alpha, filling him up with his seed. He lets out a low moan as he empties himself into Cynlaef and shivers as he feels the alpha’s body milking him dry. “Damn…” He’s not sure how much time passes as he basks in the afterglow and relishes the warmth feeling spreading through him, the connection he feels growing between all three of them. He feels his face flush at the feeling and he presses his forehead against Cynlaef’s back. “Shit…” He pants.

Athelstan hums as he drags his fingers back and forth slowly over Cynlaef’s arms. Hearing Osbert stirring, he reaches up with one hand and touches the other alpha. “Still with us?” He asks softly.

Osbert grunts and nods, rubbing himself against Cynlaef. “Yeah.” He breathes out, feeling just as tired as he sounds. “Laef?”

Cynlaef groans and nods, not wanting to answer. He tucks himself harder against Athelstan and hums. He feels the warmth of the other alpha’s cum inside him and he thinks he really likes it. He really likes that Osbert’s knot stops his cum from leaking out. Cynlaef thinks he wants it inside him forever.

The omega giggles as he cranes his neck to touch his lips to Cynlaef’s forehead. He peppers soft, gentle kisses to what he can reach of the alpha’s face and elicits a giggle from him. “Perfect.” He breathes out.

Osbert hums and nods. “He is. Athel? Are you okay?”

“Perfect.” The omega answers. “But you’re both heavy and I’m sticky so… Os, roll him over and let me up. I’ll get us cleaned up and we can nap for a bit.”

Osbert sighs and nods as he slowly pushes himself up. He moves slowly but still, Cynlaef groans and he stops. “Sorry!” He says, wrapping his arm around the other alpha’s waist.

“M’fine.” Cynlaef slurs. He feels Osbert’s knot shifting a little inside him and it’s uncomfortable. It’s just a little bit painful, he feels sore and sensitive. But he thinks he loves it and if he wasn’t so exhausted, he’s certain he’d blush. But he just leans back against Osbert and tangles his fingers in the other alpha’s shorter hair.

Athelstan smiles, watching them. He sits up and stretches and feels cum dripping down his chest. He glances down and swipes a finger through the mess Cynlaef made. And himself, he realizes. His own cock is spent and there’s a bead of cum dripping down his head. He hardly even remembers cumming. He’d been concentrating so much on the two alphas. “Damn.” He shakes his head as he brings his sticky fingers to his lips. “Being under you boys made me cum.” He says as he sticks his finger in his mouth. He sucks the mix of his and Cynlaef’s cum off and hums at the taste. He glances back at them and licks his lips. Both alphas are watching him and the omega takes pride in the red tint spreading across both of them. He can’t wait until he gets a turn between them.
