The bottom of the coffee cup scratches across the wooden surface of Jay‘s desk as it is being pushed over to him. The delicate hand sliding over the cup lingers on the handle a little too long, the red stone on the wrist bracelet dangling in front of Jay, capturing his eyes like a pendulum.

Then the hand withdraws and Jay looks up as he hears a giggle. The younger man in front of him looks at him, eyes and mouth curved up in a mischievous, cat-like smile.

„Good morning“, the younger says brightly. „Good morning, Jungwon“, he greets him with a warm smile.

Jungwon‘s smile gets even brighter. The already loose collar of his brown cardigan slides even further down as he moves to stand upright, nearly falling off his shoulder.

Jay‘s eyes flick to the defined collarbones on milky skin.

„I‘ll see you during break later then.“ The younger winks at Jay before he spins around and leaves through the door into his own office.

Jay looks after him before his eyes focus on the coffee in front of him that Jungwon just brought. It‘s a habit the younger has picked up over the last few weeks. Even though bringing coffee clearly falls into Jay‘s field of occupation, if anything.

———

The day Jay met Jungwon his life turned upside down.

Jay has always taken pride in his skill to make it through his work live in a professional and efficient way.

Then, two years ago, his old work colleague had secured him a job offer as a personal assistant for a billiondollar finance company owner‘s son in the capital. The payment was downright crazy — a once-in-a-lifetime offer.

The alpha had known at that moment that this job would change his life forever. Just not in the way he had expected back then.

The day Jay was scheduled for his first meeting with said son of the company owner had him on edge.

That morning he shoved his way through all the boxes in his new apartment.

He was wearing a different suit than originally planned, because the other one was still hiding somewhere in the boxes, impossible to find. This had already been an annoyance right at the start of the day. That annoyance quickly tripled when he got stuck in a traffic jam.

He arrived at the office building, stress building up and feeling a lot less put together than his usual self. To calm down, Jay drank some water before entering the building.

Every single part of the interior screamed money. The fortune of his last employer was quite obviously nothing compared to this.

As the elevator moved at an unholy speed Jay flexed his right hand once, a nervous habit he had never bothered to correct.

When the floor of his destination was announced, he stepped into the room in front of him and that was when he saw him for the first time.

Expensive clothes, broad shoulders yet a thin waist, beautiful features, long legs and quite young. He was leaning against a desk on the other side of the room, rich and powerful. His big cat-like eyes immediately focused on Jay.

After a moment the young man’s face changed into a blinding smile, his eyes turning into crescent shapes before saying: „So you will be the one taking care of me from now on?“

Jay gulped. „Park Jongseong“, he said dumbly before catching himself and introducing himself properly.

„Call me Jungwon“, the younger man in front of him said and Jay could feel the tight grip of fate setting him up for an inevitable path at that moment. But Jay didn‘t care. The grip felt warm.

———

From that day on there was Jungwon. And there was only Jungwon. The young man occupies Jay‘s every thought inside and outside of work. Sometimes it is in annoyance as Jungwon could be an absolute brat from time to time, other times it is with adoration for the younger man‘s leading abilities and genuine skill at his job, slowly learning how to take over the company from his father.

Either way, Jay‘s thinking and behavior when it came to Jungwon didn‘t maintain his usual healthy and professional emotional distance in any way.

It didn’t take them long to find a perfect rhythm when interacting with each other. Jay hovering behind Jungwon as his protective shadow when they left the office and tending to his daily needs as his assistant.

Jungwon started relying on him quite heavily, having a lot of trust in Jay’s judgement of a situation.

Jay started noticing Jungwon‘s eyes scanning the crowd looking for Jay at some stressful company social events. His frantic eyes always calmed down the moment they managed to find Jay‘s and Jay gave him a nod of encouragement and approval. The younger always ended up handling these events with utter charm and professionalism. Jungwon‘s moments of insecurity noticed only by the two of them.

Jay overall just knows what Jungwon needs at all time.

Once at a work dinner Jay had immediately ordered some food that he knew the other would like before the younger had even opened his mouth. Jungwon had then squeezed Jay‘s shoulder lightly in gratitude giving him one of those beautiful smiles before making a comment about Jay always looking after him, which made him all fuzzy for no reason.

The exchange led to him receiving a look from Jake, his closest friend at work and fellow alpha, who was wiggling his brows at him.

His blood froze when he realized Jungwon‘s father was facing their direction as well, giving him an odd look. Jay quickly lowered his gaze. The cold panic that washed over him cooled him down hard enough to only engage with Jungwon as much as necessary for the rest of the evening.

And even though they are overall so close, there is a distance between them that, at times, feels so big that Jay nearly can‘t take it. Though the reminder of the existence of that insurmountable distance is probably the only thing that still keeps Jay sane at this point.

The fact that Jungwon now, two years after their first meeting, still hasn‘t presented at the age of 22 doesn‘t help at all. Jay chalks the reason of his huge attraction to Jungwon up to his own alpha not knowing Jungwon‘s second gender yet and sensing a potential omega in this beautiful man.

But Jay knows. He knows that while he shouldn‘t think about the other man in this kind of way in the first place, it is quite obvious that Jungwon is most likely not going to present as an omega to begin with.

Especially over the last year it has become more and more noticeable that while Jungwon‘s appearance is somewhat lean and delicate at first glance, there is a certain unmistakable strength in his build. His overall behavior and reactions to other alphas also resemble closely the one of an alpha, that is going to present soon.

Especially recently Jungwon seems to be quite bothered by scents around him and has shown barely concealed signs of aggression towards alpha business partners on multiple occasions before getting a grip on himself again. His hearty apology towards that person afterwards is always met with the assurance to not worry about it. Jungwon really is just charming enough to pull off any stunt, Jay is sure of that.

Jay tells himself that he is glad that their biology most likely won’t align since pursuing anything would mean stepping into a territory he really shouldn‘t be entering at any cost.

———

Jay takes the last few sips of the coffee Jungwon just brought him while opening an email from one of their branches. His brows rise as he reads through the first paragraph and he gets the foreboding feeling that his day is about to take a turn for the worse now. At that moment Jungwon suddenly walks back into his office.

Jay looks up and gives the younger a questioning look.

Jungwon slides a brown folder onto Jay‘s office desk, before leaning against it, his body facing Jay. His thigh touches Jay‘s arm that is resting on the desk.

„Will you look through this for me?“, the younger man asks casually.

Jay forces his eyes from Jungwon‘s thighs, trying to not show how much he is affected by the others proximity.

„What is this?“, he asks, brows furrowed. He opens the folder and the picture of a beautiful woman stares at him. Next to the picture different kinds of information are listed about her — her background, wealth and her father’s company.

The word ‚omega‘ next to her name burns into Jay‘s eyes like acid. Realization dawns on him and a feeling of nasty bitterness emerges in him.

„Those are marriage candidates. My father sent this to me“, Jungwon answers in a neutral tone.

Jay‘s head snaps up, thoughts racing. Not a single one of them is one he can speak out loud.

Jungwon stares at him intensely, his face unreadable. Only his eyes portray a hint of an emotion that Jay can‘t pinpoint.

The silence continues for a few seconds before Jungwon opens his mouth again. „I am supposed to pick someone from the folder until next week.“

Jay barely hears him. „Why are you giving this to me?“

Jungwon just keeps looking at him. Jay feels like he is burning under Jungwon‘s stare.

This is where it becomes to much for Jay. His alpha screams with the need to posses, to protect and claim what is his. He forces the growl down as he stands up, feeling like he burned himself and grabs the folder. „I‘ll do it“, he forces out, before leaving the room.

In the corner of his eyes he sees Jungwon unmoving, staring at the place on the desk where the folder had just been a few seconds ago.

Jay rounds a corner and nearly runs into Jake who looks at him alarmed. „Woah, are you okay, man?“

Then his eyes fall on the folder in Jay‘s hands. „Oh“, he offers, shoulders falling, „I figured you would see this soon. The folder went past me, when the boss sent it to Jungwon this morning.“

Jay tries to push past him but Jake gently grabs his arm. „Hey, do you want to talk to me about this?“ Jake sighs pushing a hand through his hair. „Man, all I‘m saying is that I am here for you.“

„I‘m okay. I would have been an idiot to think this wouldn‘t eventually happen“, Jay murmurs before pushing past Jake more forcefully, escaping the hallway.

———

Jay doesn‘t see Jungwon for four days after that. He also receives no texts from the younger.

These four days are the longest time he has ever spent not talking to Jungwon in any way. Even when he is on vacation the young man never fails to randomly text him about things.

At the start it was still mostly work-related. At one point he started to receive good morning messages with a picture attached of something peculiar that had caught the younger’s attention that morning or just a random selfie. He got used to these kinds of messages and the lack of them has thrown him off more than he expected.

He‘s quite shaken up by the realization how natural it feels to him to tend to Jungwon, to laugh with him and how much he himself has grown dependent on the feeling of being a pillar to Jungwon to rely on and to be seen as a person to seek care from. A feeling which has always pleased his alpha to no end.

He wonders if Jungwon has picked up on Jay‘s feelings for him through their last interaction and if that is the reason for his radio silence.

Jay tries to shake off the memory of that conversation, while entering the building. He wonders if he is going to see Jungwon today and how to face the other man after his reaction to the folder.

It has been oddly quiet around his office for the last few days. Today is no different. The sounds of his footsteps echo loudly through the empty hallway.

He puts his bag down on his desk and brushes a hand through his hair before starting to go through a bunch of documents he printed out yesterday.

Jay catches himself observing the door leading to Jungwon‘s office while he‘s working.

He rubs a hand over his face and sighs. He needs to focus.

When the door to his office smacks open, Jay nearly drops the stack of papers in his hands.

Jake rushes in, tripping over a wire on the floor, but catching himself last second.

Jay looks at him alarmed. „Jake, what—“

„Wait.“ Jake sounds out of breath, as he turns around again to lock the door behind himself.

„What the fuck is going on?“

„We need to talk“, Jake starts, „it‘s about Jungwon.“

Jay‘s blood runs cold. Different scenarios playing out in his head. Combined with the lack of messages they paint an ugly picture.

„I am not supposed to tell you, the boss is really going to be after my ass for this one.“ Jake looks around the room a little bit overdramatically as if he expects Jungwon‘s father to sit behind one of the plastic plants. In any other situation Jay would have teased the other to no end over the amusing display, but right now he can‘t deal with that at all.

Jay‘s scent sours, pheromones of pissed off alpha thickening up the air.

„Jake, for the love of god—“

„Sorry, sorry…“ Jake trails off and wrinkles his nose at the shifting scent in the room, before finally getting to the point, „Jungwon presented.“

The information hits Jay like a brick. He is on his feet in the split of a second, nearly knocking over his chair.

„Yo…hey! Jay!“ Jake blocks Jay‘s way out by standing directly in front of the door. „Don‘t do anything drastic now, please.“

Jay‘s body is tense, completely overwhelmed by the need to claw his way through to Jungwon, no matter what it takes. He growls at Jake.

Jake, to his credit, doesn‘t even flinch, eyes softening up a bit, but voice clear and commanding. „Jay, get a grip and listen.“ It‘s an alpha command and while it doesn‘t help at all to calm the raging alpha in Jay it surely gets his attention.

„First, you should know…that he presented as an alpha.“ There is hesitance in Jake‘s voice, and compassion. It nearly sounds like pity.

It pisses Jay off. It doesn’t matter. Nothing matters, besides getting to Jungwon. „Where is he?“ Jay‘s eyes are wild.

„No you don‘t understand. Something about his presentation is weird. It’s not at all like it is supposed to go. He presented three days ago and his rut has been very bad since then. A lot stronger than it should be.“

Jake‘s scent picks up a more dominant tone, visibly stealing himself, clearly anticipating a strong reaction to what he‘s about to say. „Don‘t freak out on me now, but the boss let an omega woman come to him yesterday to help him through it.“

Jay sees red, he feels himself burning up.

„But Jungwon’s alpha has rejected her“, Jake continues hastily, „he‘s reacting very badly to both alphas and omegas. The doctor has never seen something like this before.“

Jay‘s eyes widen, strong worry pushing through the possessiveness. „Is he alone?“

„No, Sunoo is with him right now, looking after him with water, food and everything, but it is getting worse.“

Jay feels some relieve at that. Sunoo is Jungwon‘s closest friend. A quite stubborn but caring beta Jungwon had met at an event as a teenager and declared as his new best friend the same night. Jay has met Sunoo sometimes casually whenever the beta decides to visit Jungwon in his office.

„I wasn‘t a fan of keeping you in the dark, but the boss ordered it. Still, I should have said something from the start and I am truly sorry about that. Jungwon has been asking for you since he presented. He has been asking for you all the time.“

Jay feels himself break. He pushes past Jake and the alpha lets him. He turns around at the door, eyes pleading. „Where?“

„He‘s in the unused apartment on the 16th floor.“

Jay nods in gratitude before rushing out of the door.

———

Jay‘s eyes burn holes into the elevator’s screen that signals the numbers of the floors.

When the elevator doors open he is hit with the smell of a distressed alpha. The smell is new and strong and Jay is taken aback for a second.

But the smell is still so Jungwon, containing everything that Jungwon is as a person. Containing everything Jay has been craving for so long.

Even if it is the smell of an alpha now, Jay doesn‘t give a fuck. It is the scent of Jungwon and, oh, it is just all he needs.

He locates the source of the scent immediately behind one of the closed doors.

There are other people here. They turn around and look at him alarmed. One of the men starts moving in his direction. „Mr. Park, you‘re not supposed to be here!“

Jay’s face darkens, body tense. He moves to cross the room towards the closed door, ready to claw his way through to Jungwon if necessary.

„Hey!“, the man shouts. Hands grab at him, pulling him back. Jay growls. Other people step in front of him too.

Everybody in the room turns silent when suddenly the scent in the room intensifies. The men next to Jay turn around. Jay stares at the opened door.

There stands Jungwon. Sunoo is directly behind him, holding onto him. Jungwon doesn‘t look good. He looks worn out, stressed, feverish. His clothes are a mess. His eyes stare at Jay like he is an oasis in the desert.

„Jay“, he breathes.

Jay is next to him in a second and Jungwon nearly falls into him latching onto him. Jay puts his arms around the younger, holding him tightly. Jungwon buries his nose in Jay‘s neck and whines.

Jay concentrates on releasing soothing pheromones, head getting lost in the closeness of the other.

The other men in the room stare at them wide-eyed, unsure how to handle the situation.

Sunoo looks over Jay‘s shoulder from behind Jungwon and then makes a hand gesture. „Get him back inside“, he says quietly, holding the door open.

Jay moves himself and Jungwon through the door without letting go.

He faintly hears the sound of the elevator and recognizes Jake’s voice talking to the men outside before Sunoo quickly shuts the door behind them.

Jungwon whines again when Jay adjusts his arms around him for a more comfortable angle. The younger man moves to look up at him, eyes glassy and a blush on his cheeks.

„You came“, he whispers, hands gripping Jay‘s shoulders more tightly.

Jay rubs soothing circles on the others hip. „I would have days ago if I had known.“ Regret washes over him. He should have known this sooner, he should have been there from the start.

Jungwon leans his forehead on Jay‘s shoulder.

Jay sucks in a breath. „But now I am here to take care of you.“ Jay is surprised by how husky his voice sounds.

Jungwon moans, breathy and needy. „Please, hyung.“

Jay makes a strangled noise. He pushes Jungwon against the wall and smashes their mouths together like a man starving. The kiss is all pent up desire, tongue and teeth. It is desperate and messy and Jay feels himself melting, everything clicking right in place that very moment.

Jungwon pulls himself even closer, his groin pressing up against Jay’s thigh. Jay shudders and Jungwon moans, small gasps leaving his lips during kisses as he grinds himself against Jay, chasing the friction.

Jay licks against the corner of the other alpha‘s mouth before trailing down his neck. Kissing and sucking wherever he can reach, Jungwon quivering under him.

His teeth slightly scrape over the others neck and Jungwon lets out a high whine, throwing his head to the side and baring his neck.

Jay growls and licks his lips. „God, you make me crazy.“

Jungwon moans.

Then Sunoo coughs on the other side of the room. „I am going to leave you two to it then“, he says rolling his eyes dramatically, before retreating towards the door.

Jay has the decency to look at least somewhat embarrassed.

Suddenly Jungwon gasps loudly, body going slack. He starts breathing heavily, his scent becoming even stronger. Jay’s eyes widen and he sinks down to his knees to better stabilize Jungwon.

Sunoo lets go of the door in an instant and darts back to them. „Jungwonie! …Jungwon, hey!“, Sunoo‘s voice is thick with worry as he slides down next to Jay, carefully reaching out to Jungwon.

Jungwon is clinging to Jay. His eyes unfocused, looking completely out of it.

Jay‘s eyes are wide. „What is happening?“

Jungwon’s breathing quickens. He whines, seemingly in pain.

„Shit shit shit.“ Jay panics, putting a hand on Jungwon‘s forehead. His temperature is rising.

Sunoo jumps up, darting towards the door again. Jay faintly hears him through the ringing in his ears shout to someone to get the doctor.

Jungwon‘s body jerks, but then his breathing calms somewhat. He‘s shaking but the pain seems to be less overwhelming.

A hand touches Jay‘s shoulder and he nearly jumps up, before he realizing that Sunoo is back beside them.

Sunoo‘s breath hitches and he stares at Jungwon with wide eyes. „Do you smell him?“, he asks frantically.

„What?“ Jay‘s mind takes a moment to catch up on the fact that he is being spoken to.

Sunoo looks at Jay impatiently, his voice is laid with urgency. „I need to know what you smell. I can barely smell scents, but even I can tell something is going on.“

It hits Jay like a slap in the face. He wasn‘t able to make it out at first because of the panic, but now that Sunoo points it out it‘s as clear as day.

Jungwon‘s overall scent hasn‘t changed, but it is so much sweeter now. It smells like everything Jungwon means to Jay, like home, like a together, like a scent existing for Jay only.

And other than that…it is the scent of an omega. Unmistakably so.

Jungwon has his eyes closed and shakily pushes himself into Jay‘s arms, fully leaning against him again.

Jay holds him close wordlessly, rubbing soothing circles with his fingers.

Sunoo stares at them with a look of pure amazement and fascination. „…h-he bitched himself“, he murmurs, „I‘ve heard about this before. I didn‘t even know it was an actual thing.“ Sunoo reaches out and brushes through Jungwon‘s hair soothingly. „For how long has this been going on inside of you, Jungwonie?“ he whispers quietly, voice filled with care.

The doctor arrives shortly after.

———

„Jongseong!“

Jay startles where he‘s standing, scrolling through his phone.

Heeseung smiles at him widely before giving him a bone-crushing hug. „Glad to see you haven‘t died yet from all that worrying and overthinking.“

Jay huffs. „It’s nice to see you too, hyung.“

Heeseung keeps an arm draped around Jay‘s shoulders and maneuvers him through the door into the café. „It‘s also very nice to know that I am still your number one emergency contact when there is something bothering you.“ Heeseung smoothly dodges a waitress rushing out from behind the counter, her hands filled with coffee cups. „You still need to text me more, though. I‘ve been back in town for three weeks and not a word.“

Jay doesn’t point out that Heeseung could have just reached out himself as well and instead settles on rolling his eyes. But still he can‘t help the fond smile sneaking onto his face. He has missed the charming beta a lot.

Jay stares at Heeseung‘s hoodie, which the other is wearing over a shirt, only one arm tucked into a sleeve, the other sleeve hanging over his shoulder. „Now, what is that?“

„Fashion, Jongseong“, Heeseung states matter-of-factly, already eyeing a table at the back of the café.

The moment his ass hits the chair, Heeseung buries his face in the menu, just to then order the drink that Jay already knows he will order — all the while he’s shamelessly flirting with the blushing waitress.

The girl tears her eyes away from Heeseung with difficulty before asking Jay about his order. Jay just tells her to bring two of Heeseung‘s, letting the girl scurry back behind the counter.

She doesn‘t leave without one final longing look at Heeseung, who already has his focus back on Jay.

Jay chuckles. „You haven’t changed at all, since we worked together.“

„I like to stick to the roots.“ — a blatant lie.

Heeseung rests his chin on his hand, face turning a little bit more serious. „So you‘ve been having trouble with your pretty boy?“

Jay doesn‘t even try to call Heeseung out on his choice of words. He just sighs, tensing up. „I just really don‘t know how to deal with the situation right now.“

Heeseung hums. „I mean, based on the text you sent me yesterday, it seems pretty clear to me.“ He gestures in the vague direction of the café‘s doors. „Get your ass over there and find him.“

„Oh hell, I tried“, Jay laughs humorlessly, „couldn‘t even make it past the parking lot without getting stopped.“

He fishes out his phone and holds an opened chat in Heeseung’s face.

„He texted me the day after the doctor took him that he‘s okay. But after that…silence. He hasn‘t answered my texts either.“

The older wiggles his nose in order for his lensless glasses to slide down a little, before reading the screen.

„He thanked you for being there for him and that he ‚enjoyed himself‘.“ Heeseung raises his eyebrows teasingly. „What exactly went down, that you didn‘t tell me about, huh?“

Jay clicks his tongue. „It drives me nuts that I cannot reach him and that I don‘t know how he is doing right now. Jake keeps telling me that Jungwon‘s doing fine and that I should wait for things to cool down. But I‘ve always been bad at sitting things out.“

„Okay, but it‘s good that he‘s recovering! Have you been sleeping enough though.“

„Not really, but I am trying.“

„From what I‘ve heard your guy is pretty stubborn, have some faith in him as well.“ Heeseung leans back in his chair. „And if there is still nothing by the end of the week, I‘ll join you when you try to get to him in person again. We‘ll figure shit out together. How about that?“

Jay isn‘t fully convinced, but he feels some tension leaving his body. Heeseung always has the ability to calm him down and lighten any kind of burden on his shoulder.

And so he decides that one of the rare moments has come to actually tell Heeseung just that. „Thank you…really. You know, sometimes I probably don’t appreciate enough—“

He gets interrupted, by a very tall and gloomy looking figure slamming down their coffee‘s on the table in front of them.

Jay looks up at the young alpha with a confused look.

He‘s wearing baggy clothes, hood pulled over his head and styled bangs nearly completely covering his eyes. Nearly all his fingers are adorned with rings and his pants are sitting concerningly low.

The entire outfit has clearly been put together with a lot of thought and intention, which Jay feels like he fails to understand.

If it wasn‘t for the name tag on his hoodie Jay would have never guessed that the guy works at the café.

Then Jay looks at Heeseung and nearly laughs in disbelief at the scene transpiring in front of him.

Heeseung‘s bambi-eyes are getting big, looking the guy up and down quite shamelessly. He wets his lips with his tongue and the young alpha‘s eyes seem glued to the movement.

Then, to Jay’s bewilderment, Heeseung smirks and hooks a finger in the belt loop of the guy‘s pants, pulling him a little closer to him. The other follows Heeseung‘s direction without any resistance.

Heeseung pushes a folded piece of paper into the other‘s pants pockets before letting go again, sealing things off with a light slap to the alpha‘s outer thigh.

The young alpha‘s gaze lingers on Heeseung for a moment before he turns around to leave and squeezes Heeseung’s shoulder as he goes.

Jay‘s jaw hangs wide open.

The beta bursts out laughing seeing Jay‘s expression.

„What just happened??“, Jay asks.

„Well that was Riki“, Heeseung says as if that would explain anything, „we‘ve been hooking up since I am back in town.“ Heeseung lets his hands drop on the table, smirking in the direction the alpha just left. „We met in the bar two streets over and what this dude can do in bed is madness.“

Jay‘s expression turns very amused, but still his brows rise in question. „How old is he, hyung?“

Heeseung rolls his eyes. „Come on now, Jongseong. He‘s 19, okay? We are good. And you are clearly not in a position to judge here.“

Jay rolls his eyes yet again.

———

Jay gets home and closes the door behind himself, feeling restless again. His brain keeps going back to the feeling of Jungwon in his arms, to the feeling of the younger’s hands against him and to the other‘s puffy, cute moans.

Lust and desire bleed through his worry as he feels his blood rushing downwards. He adjusts his pants, trying to reduce the constraining feeling.

He rolls the heel of his hand against himself. Groaning, his head falls back against the door. Jungwon‘s smile flashes before his eyes, the younger‘s thighs rubbing together as he crosses his legs over each other. „Shit“, Jay murmurs weakly.

Jay‘s definitely not a stranger to rubbing one out to the thought of the younger. A lot more times than he would like to admit are spent breathlessly in his apartment or the company bathrooms with his hand down his pants, imagining that Jungwon‘s tight heat is engulfing him instead.

Shameful moments of desire, that have been increasing more and more, leaving him with a feeling of guilt and the need to be the only one the other ever looks at. Moments, when he comes in his hand to the image of Jungwon bent in half under him, breathing out his name like a prayer.

Jay sinks down in front of the door.

The sudden ringing of his phone, sounds too loud in his ears. He digs it out of his pocket to look at the caller info. As he sees the name on the screen, he nearly drops the phone. Jay picks up the call in an instant.

„Jay?“, Jungwon’s voice sounds a little uncertain but overall steady.

„I am here“, Jay answers reassuringly. He wonders, if Jungwon can make out the longing in his voice. „How are you?“

„Don‘t worry, I‘m good“, the younger answers, Jay can hear the small smile in his voice. „I was allowed to return to my own apartment two hours ago and got my phone back.“

Jay sighs in relief. „Make sure to eat something, alright?“

The younger hums but he sounds distracted. „I ordered some food earlier.“

Jay feels that there is something else Jungwon wants to say.

„What is it?“, Jay asks softly, his heart feeling like it‘s nearly overflowing with emotions.

A moment of silence.

„I need to know if I‘ve just been reading into things or if…“ Jungwon hesitates. „I-, I want you to come over.“

Jay let‘s out a shaky laugh, face flushing. „Anything, baby. I‘d do anything for you.“

Jungwon’s breath hitches.

The pet name comes to Jay as easily as breathing. He knows that he has never called Jungwon that before, though always craving it. It makes addressing a sentence to Jungwon feel complete and Jay wonders how in the world he has never slipped up before.

Jungwon‘s voice sounds strained and he breathes out just a single word.

„Please.“

It doesn‘t take another second before Jay is out the door.

———

The drive through the city passes in a haze and Jay is sure that it wasn‘t exactly his safest drive so far. He takes the steps to Jungwon‘s apartment and stops in front of the door. Nerves suddenly kicking in again, he takes one big breath.

Just as he raises his hand to knock, the door gets opened from the inside and he stands face to face with Jungwon. Jungwon‘s new omega scent hits him with full force.

Jay’s eyes widen and the next moment Jungwon crashes into him.

Jungwon kisses him hungrily, nearly desperate. Jay is just taken aback for the split of a second before he grips Jungwon by the waist and pulls the other one completely against himself.

Jay takes control over the kiss and Jungwon lets him. Jay feels like he‘s drowning. His hands roam over the other‘s body, gripping, pulling. Jungwon whines in his mouth.

When the need to breath becomes too much he pushes himself back a little. The younger one chases after his mouth immediately. Jay let‘s out a laugh, feeling completely lightheaded.

He stares down at the slightly smaller omega and Jungwon pouts at him.

Jay’s smile widens and he tightens his grip on the other’s waist, moving them both into the apartment. Jungwon lets out a surprised squeak at being manhandled, his laughter being knocked out of him as he is pushed against the closed door.

„I have been wanting this for so long.“ Jay shoves his nose into the other‘s neck, inhaling the scent slowly.

Jungwon’s knees give out and he whines again as Jay steadies him, hungry eyes running over the younger‘s body. „Where is your bedroom?“

Jungwon points at a closed door behind Jay, his expression taking on a mischievous tone. He leans forward and whispers against Jay‘s lips: „Take me there, alpha.“

Jay moans. He doesn’t need to be told twice. He picks up the younger omega and carries him over to the room.

Jay sets Jungwon down on the bed, before straightening up again and starting to undo his own shirt buttons.

Jungwon watches him, leaning back on his arms, eyes half closed, smile on his face.

Jay gets impatient on the last button and nearly rips it open, until the shirt finally comes apart and is being thrown somewhere on the floor.

Jay is about to lean down to Jungwon, as his eyes get caught by something on the desk behind Jungwon.

He growls.

Jungwon’s eyes widen in confusion and he turns around on the bed to see what has caught the alpha‘s attention.

Jay stares at that damned brown folder from a few days ago, now lying on Jungwon‘s desk.

Jungwon looks back at Jay and understanding sparks in his eyes, together with something else. The omega chuckles and Jay‘s eyes dart back to him.

Jungwon is wearing that expression on his face that he always has before he does something that gives Jay a major headache.

„That day when I showed you that folder, I wanted you to do something about it so badly. I wanted you to bend me over your desk right that moment, all consequences be damned.“

Jay feels like he can‘t breath.

Jungwon licks his lips. „I wanted you to take me right there, where anybody could have walked in, showing everybody who I belong to. Who I have always belonged to.“

Something in Jay snaps and the sound he makes sounds far from human as he slams the omega flat down on the bed, attacking his mouth again.

Jungwon moans as Jay’s hand travel down to the omega’s thighs grabbing at them. Jay had been wanting to do that for so long.

He keeps touching the younger’s thighs and Jungwon huffs, blush on his cheek quite prominent, clearly being worked up by it. But Jay doesn’t quite touch him where he needs to be touched and Jungwon tries to thrust his hips against Jay‘s hand.

„Patience, baby“, Jay murmurs. He feels the irony in his words. In his entire life he as never felt that impatient and downright needy before.

His hand moves up and he cups Jungwon through his pants. Jay can’t hold back the words spilling out of him. „You always loved people seeing us together didn‘t you. You always loved being paraded around like my little omega. You wanted people to know that me up your ass is what you truly need.“

Jungwon‘s hips buckle up and he moans, desperation clear in his voice.

Jay pushes him down again, working the other‘s pants open. His eyes search their surroundings and he finds what he‘s looking for on top of the bedside table.

He coats his fingers in lube, spitting on them once for good measure, before moving to circle the other‘s rim.

He bathes in the view of how wrecked the omega looks.

Jungwon grips the sheets violently as Jay pushes two fingers in at once. There is less resistance than he would have expected.

„Did you finger yourself before I got here?“

Jungwon grabs Jay and pulls him down for a kiss, ears burning.

Jay indulges him, slowly pushing his fingers further in while scissoring him open. He grins into the kiss, murmuring against Jungwon‘s lips: „Oh, you absolutely did. How filthy. Was it the first thing you did when you came home?“

Jungwon meets Jay‘s fingers with a thrust down, before looking into his eyes. „I showered first.“ He almost sounds offended.

Jay laughs. It has always been so easy to laugh with Jungwon, even now.

Then Jay angles his fingers a little and Jungwon nearly screams, back arching. „Oh fuck yes“, he moans.

„Now that‘s it.“ Jay‘s smirk grows again. He starts to massage the spot, drinking up every reaction the omega gives him.

„Please“, the omega whines and grips at Jay‘s arm to stop him, „I need you inside.“

Jay would give Jungwon anything right now.

He pushes Jungwon’s pretty thighs up, lines himself up and looks up at Jungwon, who moved is arm to cover his eyes. „Are you okay?“

Jungwon nods.

„Words, baby.“

Jungwon removes the arm, blush adorning his face, eyes on fire. „Fuck me, please, I need you now.“

Jay tries desperately to keep his last bit of remaining sanity together to not push himself completely in all at once. He slowly moves in, the heat that he has been craving, nearly too much to handle now.

Then Jungwon meets him with a thrust, fully connecting their hips, pulling a loud moan from both of them.

„Fuck“, Jay breathes, „you are perfect.“

Jungwon sounds out of breath when he speaks up. „You were right.“

Jay seeks Jungwon‘s eyes. „What?“

„I’ve always loved people seeing us together. I want to be seen as yours. You‘re always taking such good care of me.“ He grips Jay’s shoulders, looking up at him with his eyes half closed, before breathing out: „You’ve been doing such a good job, alpha.“

Jay‘s moan is loud and embarrassingly high.

Jungwon‘s eyes sparkle, clearly satisfied with the reaction he just pulled. „Show me, what you want to do to me. I want to feel you for the next week.“

And that does it for Jay. He starts to fuck into Jungwon in earnest.

He aims for the omega‘s prostrate and every thrust, even the slightest movement gets him a beautiful reaction from Jungwon, who completely falls apart beneath him.

It doesn‘t take Jay long until he‘s close. He starts to pull out as Jungwon grabs his arm, holding him close. „Come inside, please.“

Jay growls, starting to fuck into Jungwon again. „Do you want to be bred so badly? To carry my children now that you are an omega?“

Jungwon‘s reaction is instantaneous. His head falls back with a high moan and his body jerks as he comes all over his and Jay‘s stomach.

Jay‘s eyes widen. He had shown a little bit too much of his own deeply buried desires there. He had just wanted to test the water a little bit. The fact that Jungwon seemed to be so much into it nearly chokes him. What a thought! A family with Jungwon. The young omega knocked up with his kids, the ultimate claim. A dream, a fantasy that could be reality now. One that he had never actually allowed himself to fully consider before. Jungwon would have always been enough as he was, but now the possibility hovers over him and Jay feels a little bit insane.

But they should talk about this in detail afterwards. They should talk about everything.

Looking at Jungwon right now, red cheeks, mouth slightly agape, beautiful eyes glazed over, looking at Jay as if he‘d hung the moon for him, lets Jay believe in their future. They will figure it out. He is absolutely sure of it.

Jay carefully pushes Jungwon‘s bangs to the side. „Can you hold on a little longer for me, baby?“

Jungwon nods and moans from the overstimulation as Jay starts to move again.

It only takes Jay a few more thrusts before he comes into Jungwon with a deep, satisfied growl and the younger‘s name on his lips.

He makes sure to clean them both up throughly, before he wraps himself around Jungwon, who buries his face in his chest, fully content.

———

When Jay stirs from his sleep Jungwon is already awake, looking up at him with his big cat-eyes from where he is half-lying on his chest. „Good morning“, the younger chirps.

„Morning, baby“, Jay murmurs, still having to fully wake up, „how are you feeling?“

„I am all good“, Jungwon assures and leans up to give Jay a quick kiss, „I love it when you call me that by the way.“

„Good, since you are going to hear it a lot from now on.“ Jay smiles at the omega fondly. „I am going to make us some breakfast, you had a lot going the last few days.“

Jungwon hums in approval. „I could eat.“ He slowly pushes a hand down Jay’s upper body towards the older man’s waist.

Jay’s breath hitches.

They do in fact not make it to breakfast anytime soon.

———

„So basically what you‘re saying is-“ A quiet thump can be heard from the other end of the line, indicating that Sunghoon just knocked down the water bottle he had been continuously sipping on since Jay started the phone call.

Sunghoon’s voice sounds quieter when he leans down to pick up the bottle before Jay can hear him clearer again. „So, you alpha‘d so hard through your new job, that your boss realized that sitting on your dick would solve all his problems.“

„I am never telling you anything again.“
