  I broke. Again and again and still my heat burned hot.

  I came more times than I could count, and still he made me come some more. His cock speared into me and I begged for it.

  I screamed for it. I begged him for his cum and he gave it to me.

  He growled and my core tightened hard around him. I arched into his every thrust and he gave me all of him. My core cramped down hard and my entire body tightened around him and he growled once more, forcing a rush of slick to gush down my thighs as he thrust into me with the animalistic intensity that I craved.

  He pressed his cock all the way inside me and the base of his shaft started to inflate, hooking behind my pelvic bone and securing himself inside me. It grew larger and wider, stretching my body painfully as he forced it deeper inside me. I screamed even as another orgasm raced through me, drowning in pleasure so strong that it tore me open from within and still his knot grew bigger and bigger inside me, forcing itself inside my body and bringing us together as one.

  His cock throbbed hard inside me and then his seed spurted deep into my body, a searing hot culmination of our fucking and my heat simmered for a long moment before I came once more. I rode his cock to completion, finding my release at the very same time that he found his. He filled me with spurt after spurt of potent alpha cum and I took it all because I needed to.

  At the same time, his mouth closed around my neck. I thought he was going to kiss me, but when his teeth pressed against my skin, I realized I was wrong. He bit into me and at that moment, a burst of incandescent light blinded me, and a flash of fire burned through my body. The tips of my toes curled, and my fingers tingled. I couldn’t keep myself from screaming as a foreign sensation raced through me.

  I knew what this was. He’d forced a pair bond on me and now I would crave no other for the rest of my life. Alphas and omegas formed a mystical bond that linked them, allowing them to feel each other’s emotions and if it proved to be strong enough, sometimes their thoughts.

  My neck stung, but it healed almost instantly, leaving a white scar that throbbed with the power of our union.

  That ensuing orgasm was the strongest one I’d felt that night. Raw pleasure tore through me with brutal force, making me lose complete control and there was nothing I could do to get it back. I didn’t know when it would end, and I was only vaguely aware of the tears slipping down my cheeks and dripping off my chin. My body quivered and quaked as I sobbed through the worst of my heat and the establishment of the pair bond.

  Arms curled around me and pulled me close. He held me tight, purring and trying to calm the racing beat of my heart.

  I drew in as much air as I could manage. Only when my orgasm finally began to fade, did I realize his had too. His knot remined inside me and I knew that it would remain there for some time, ensuring that both my slick and his seed would be locked inside me for as long as it needed. He pulled me in close to his chest, winding his arms around me and ensuring that I knew that I was safe in his arms.

  “That’s a good omega. You did so well,” he murmured, and his words brought me comfort. I whimpered softly and he petted his fingers along my scalp, soothing me with his touch as the last remaining remnants of my pleasure faded away.

  I was still so warm. I still felt needy. I wanted more and I soon came to the terrifying realization that my heat had yet to be sated.

  I feared that I would need him again. And again.

  I would find out that I was right.

  Chapter Four

  Freya

  The awakening of my omega lasted for days. Every minute, every hour, I could feel my alpha fading away bit by bit, as if she had fractured altogether and I was afraid she might never return.

  Aric and I stayed inside my chambers the entire time. I couldn’t have left if I had even tried. My body needed an alpha, and right now, he was giving me what I needed. I demanded his cock again and again, trying to force my heat away and only the advent of time seemed to dull its fiery edges. Occasionally he would make me drink water and eat something, which irritated me because the only thing I wanted was his alpha seed burning hot inside me. My nest became a sticky place that was covered with the evidence of our coupling. It smelled of sex, my own arousal and his cum, which only made me want more of it every time the scent met my nose. I yearned to fix it every time it got a little mussed and occasionally, he would let me, but for only as long as he would allow it.

  I ended up over his knee with a spanked bottom more times than I could count. I felt the lash of his belt almost as often, every last one meant to remind me of my place as the omega and that he was my alpha.

  I lost myself in the throes of estrous. I no longer cared that anyone could hear me scream or beg or if I was punished with a servant just downstairs or even with them in the bedroom with us. It didn’t bother me to know that others heard me getting a spanking more often than not and I didn’t care that I hadn’t worn clothes in days and that my bottom constantly bore the marks of his belt. They’d seen the evidence of my slick and his cum drying on my legs, so they knew what was happening. I had no doubt all of Valgertha knew that their queen was getting used hard by an alpha for the very first time and that knowledge made me blush, but there was nothing I could do about it.

  Aric was just as demanding as I was. There were times that I wanted to rest, but he didn’t allow me that. Instead he would force several orgasms from me as he bounced me on his thick cock, making me take his knot even though I was occasionally reluctant. Before he was through with me though, I always begged him for it. Every. Single. Time.

  I was a needy little omega in the throes of heat, and I would take him whether I wanted it or not.

  Sometimes he would make me suck his cock, making me wait and forcing me to suffer through my insatiable need while he showed me again and again that it was his decision to give me what I needed. Sometimes, he would force me onto my knees and fuck me so hard that I saw stars. Even through all of that, he gave me his knot at least once a day, oftentimes more than once, until I was left an exhausted, wet mess of satisfied omega.

  By the time my heat finally abated, the two of us were so exhausted that we slept for more than a day straight. My servants brought us food and basins of water at regular times, but we hardly moved out of bed as we tried to recover from what we’d suffered through together.

  My body was so sore. The two of us were so spent and I curled up into the safety of his arms. I didn’t want to move any more than he did, and he allowed me that for a little while longer.

  “You need to eat a full meal, my little omega,” he murmured. “You haven’t had a real one in days.”

  I groaned in protest, hiding my face in his chest and shaking my head.

  “Don’t make me,” I whined quietly, hiding my smile.

  “You aren’t in heat any longer, Freya. Getting a spanking now is going to hurt far more than it did before,” he warned, and I shivered. His hand and his belt had hurt plenty enough to still leave my bottom incredibly sore and I didn’t want to imagine how it could hurt even more than that.

  “I don’t want another spanking,” I replied softly. He chuckled, the sound lighthearted.

  “Then you will get out of bed with me and let me serve you a good meal, omega. If you continue to protest, you will find your bare bottom back over my knee for a thorough lesson in what happens when you disobey me, only this time it will be with that wooden hairbrush you keep on your dresser over there. Do you understand me?” he questioned, taking a moment to press his finger beneath my chin. He forced me to meet his eyes and I felt so very small and vulnerable in that moment.

  “I understand, alpha,” I whimpered. My eyes flicked over to my thick mahogany hairbrush, suddenly nervous of the far too flat back side of it that I was certain would teach a very memorable lesson indeed.

  He uncurled his body from mine and climbed out of bed. He offered me a hand, waiting expectantly. I knew what would happen if I didn’t, so I took it quickly and he smiled with pleas
ure at my obedience.

  “Good girl,” he said softly and a thrill of my own raced up and down my spine.

  Carefully, he led me over to a small table in the corner of my bedroom. There was a mountain of food on top of it and two chairs to either side. I stared at the delectable spread, unable to keep my mouth from watering. I licked my lips and my stomach growled angrily.

  Aric was right. I was starving. Even though the two of us had eaten and gulped down full cups of water several times, we’d worked all of it off. The amount of slick that I had produced had left me dehydrated and still exceedingly thirsty. He poured me a serving of water from the pitcher and had me drink it all twice before he put a very full plate of meats, cheeses, and fruits in front of me.

  “You will eat every last bite, omega,” he said darkly.

  I wanted to say something smart in return, although I thought better of it and instead popped a large piece of melon into my mouth. Once I took the first bite, it was easy to take the next and the next, until my plate was empty and my belly was full. I hummed with pleasure, feeling fully satiated now that I had something more in my stomach other than his thick alpha seed.

  Once I was finished, I leaned back in my chair, watching as he finished his own rather large portion of food. I reached for a thick piece of bread and slathered it in butter, enjoying every bite of the honeyed cinnamon spread. He reached for a pewter goblet and poured me a glass of red wine, handing it to me after that. I took it with a bit of hesitation, watching him more carefully now.

  Even though we’d just spent the past several days fucking each other and getting to know every inch of our bodies, I hardly knew this man. He was still so much of a stranger and I wanted to know more about him. Why had he snuck into my chambers in the middle of the night? Had he come by himself or had someone else ordered him to come here? How had he known I would go into heat simply by being in his presence? There was so much I wanted to know, and I had every intention of making him answer all of them once my energy returned to a normal level.

  The pair bond between us pulsed, and I wondered if he could sense my uneasiness. He gazed at me, almost as if he could read my thoughts even though I hadn’t said them out loud. His eyes searched mine, and he cocked his head to the side.

  “How do you feel now, Freya?” he asked, assessing me as I sat there before him.

  “Like myself at the same time I don’t feel like myself,” I answered honestly.

  “Do you know why that might be?” he asked carefully.

  I sat back against my chair, swallowing a mouthful of wine. I watched him carefully, studying him for any open signs of hostility and I found none. I didn’t feel any animosity through our link either. Instead, he gazed back at me with a certain gentleness that left me feeling both comfortable and just a little anxious.

  “I do not. Why don’t you tell me?” I answered. I lifted my chin a bit in a silent show of defiance. His eyes narrowed just the slightest bit, letting me know that he’d caught the slight challenge, but he didn’t respond. Instead, he just cleared his throat and sat back, smiling back at me gently.

  “You’re a very unique little female, Freya. You’ve led your life under the assumption that you’re a very rare alpha female. You’d worked hard and earned a multitude of respect as a warrior and now as the Queen of Valgertha. But when the people I work with looked a bit deeper into your genetic background, they found something very surprising hidden by your dominant alpha gene,” he began.

  “And what was that?”

  “You have an omega gene too. It’s never been properly activated by the right set of conditions, be it hormonally, epigenetically, or even environmentally, so you’ve never known about its existence. I think you do now though,” he continued.

  I swallowed carefully. What he was saying made sense, but that didn’t mean I wanted to accept it yet. I still couldn’t sense any danger from him through the growing pair bond between us. I wanted to hate every single word that he was saying, but I couldn’t, not when he’d been the one to guide me through my first heat and especially not when I could feel how much he cared through our link. He didn’t want to hurt me. That much I was sure of.

  He wasn’t wrong about the omega within me. Even I could feel her, stretching her wings and growing stronger with every passing hour. It felt like my alpha was still there too, although she was much quieter than she had been before.

  “You are alpha and omega, Freya. Someone like you has never been seen before. You are strong and fierce. You will not bow to just any alpha, only to me. You are my beautiful little omega,” he said softly, and I lifted my eyes to meet his.

  “Why you?” I asked. “Why did I react this way to you specifically?”

  “My genetics are directly compatible with your own,” he answered. “Our scientists tested mine against yours and determined that there was a 99.8% chance that your omega would awaken once in the presence of my alpha,” he replied softly.

  “How can you be sure that still holds true now that my estrous is over? Maybe it was just a temporary thing?” I questioned, feeling a bit frustrated that he seemingly knew more about me than I did.

  He growled and my core cramped down hard. I felt my slick moisten between my thighs and I huffed with understanding. He stood up and knelt before me, grasping my chin in his fingers and forcing me to meet his eyes.

  “Does this feel temporary to you, Freya?” he asked, slipping his fingers between my thighs. “You are bonded to me now, little omega, and you will remain so for the rest of our days. This pretty cunt is going to crave my cock, again and again. You’re mine and you will do well to remember that.”

  I shivered.

  I wanted to fight every word that came out of his mouth, but I couldn’t. The bond between us was far too consuming even at its emerging stages. I couldn’t ignore his fingers gliding along my sensitive flesh either. My body responded to him with such ferocity that I couldn’t even remotely deny it. He knew it and I knew it.

  There had never been an alpha like him before. No one else made me feel like he did.

  I had to accept that he was my alpha now. I needed to learn to live with that.

  I turned my head as he gently released my chin.

  “You’ve mentioned the people you work for twice now. Tell me about them,” I ventured, trying to ignore the pulsing feeling between my legs. He never removed his hand though, probably keeping it there to remind me that he could. I tried to close my thighs, but he knocked them back open. It soon became clear that he was going to touch me because he wanted to, and I didn’t have a choice.

  His thumb slid across my clit. I was so very wet for him.

  “That’s dangerous information, my little omega,” he murmured quietly.

  I didn’t answer. I simply waited for him to continue.

  “I belong to a secret organization that’s existed for hundreds of years called the Alpha Brotherhood,” he began, and my eyes flicked to his. I had heard whispers of the existence of an underground group of the sort, but I had always thought it was a myth.

  “I’m listening,” I said quietly.

  “The reach of those I work for is extensive. We have a lot of money and a lot of influence. Our members have places in every city throughout the world. I was sent here with a group of men and women that I lead to infiltrate Valgertha too,” he explained.

  “Why now? Why did you come for me?” I pressed.

  “King Vageir was agreeable to our wishes,” he answered simply. I waited for him to explain further, but he didn’t.

  “And you were sent to make sure that I am too,” I replied.

  “In a way,” he replied.

  I had a feeling there was more to the story than he was letting on.

  “What is the purpose of the Alpha Brotherhood?” I asked.

  “We uphold the will of the gods and the people that can’t protect themselves. We control much of the world through upholding the central belief that the world functions in two equal parts, order and
disorder,” he explained, dragging his finger up and down my clit. I swallowed heavily and closed my eyes at the distraction, trying to force my hips not to move against him. Soon though, it became quite difficult to keep still.

  He took me around the waist and lifted me from the chair. After that, he took a seat and pulled me into his lap, and I could feel the hardness of his cock against my naked bottom.

  “The Alpha Brotherhood has powerful enemies and your conquests have proceeded to put you in a dangerous position, my little omega. I’m not here to control you. I’m here to work with you, but most important, I’m here to protect you,” he reassured me.

  “Tell me more about what the Brotherhood wants from me,” I asked. “I deserve to know.”

  “I will tell you everything, my pretty little queen. The Brotherhood’s enemies in Ravenrath are of particular concern and I’ve also been sent to steer you in a direction away from an alliance with their leader,” he explained.

  “Ravenrath and Valgertha have never been at odds,” I replied.

  “They’ve never been aligned either, have they?” he asked pointedly.

  “No,” I answered, chewing my lip as I mulled over his assertions.

  What he was saying was true, but an alliance with Ravenrath would grant us access to even greater trading routes, which would bring more goods and wealth to the city I ruled. I wanted to prove myself with greater conquests and bringing Valgertha into a position of strength and respect within the surrounding territories. I would have to consider Aric’s words, but I hadn’t yet decided if I would abide by them.

  “I will consider your wish, but I am Queen of Valgertha,” I scoffed.

  “I understand that, but you will remember that I am your alpha,” he answered dangerously.

  I bit my lip and he turned my head. With the self-assuredness that only an alpha was capable of, he captured my lips with his in a gentle kiss. At first, it caught me off guard because he hadn’t shown that kind of tenderness with me thus far, but as his lips prodded mine, I melted into his embrace, kissing him just as softly in return. My heart pulsed in my chest and his hand ventured back between my legs, squeezing rather possessively around my pussy. Carefully, he used the flats of his fingers to circle my needy bud and I quivered in his arms.
