A Second Too Late

Chapter 1

No one's POV

On one peaceful night, in a small cottage is seen a petite man with raven hair holding a bundle in his arms. The man sat beside a window with his leg folded under his bottom and look up to the clear night sky. Heart thumping in excitement because that night was the night his alphas come back home to him and their child. Yes, alphas.

The man is one of the rare humans that got 2 mates instead of 1 and he's happy as it is even though many send them a look of disgust toward them but they didn't care. Why should they? They're happy and that's what matters. Closing his eyes, the man let out a content sigh and look down to where his bundle of joy is situated in his arms. A small smile was present on his face.

"Just a little bit more love and your Papa and daddy will be here soon" he giggles, feeling giddy inside.

"I wonder how they would react to seeing you, love?" He leans down and kisses the baby's forehead.

His alphas have gone on an important mission that lasts a year. 2 days before they depart, his alphas make love to him nonstop to make it up for the absence and loneliness he will feel when they're gone. The day they depart is the day the omega finds out about his pregnancy but decides to keep it to himself. He knew they would be worried and he did not want that.

His alphas are a big figure in his town and it's their duty to protect this town. And him, as their omega can't be selfish and keep them for himself. He knows his place, he knows what he needs to do and he did just that. It's already enough that the town hates him because according to them, he did not deserve such an elite alpha,2 at that. But his alphas always reassure him that no, they are the ones who didn't deserve the omega and that he was oh so precious to the point they would be willing to sacrifice the town if it mean he would be happy. The world even. He just needs to say a word and all will be delivered. And the man know.....they were serious.

He won't deny it, being pregnant without his alphas around is hard. He used to cry and whimper all night during his pregnancy. Surrounding himself with his alpha's clothes and scent to trick his omega into thinking that their alphas are near when in reality they're so far away at who knows where. He's grateful for having such great friends - Chifuyu and Hinata - that help him along the way, and also help him kept it a secret from his alphas. He want this little joy in his arms to be a surprise for them when they came back.

The moon is high up in the sky and it was midnight. The man still sitting by the window waiting for his alphas. His arms are still holding his bundle of joy close to his chest. Rocking his body back and forth while humming a tune under his breath to put his baby to sleep while looking up at the sky, staring at the bright moon. The moon was exceptionally beautiful that night. He doesn't know why maybe because that night he will be meeting his alphas after a year of separation. That's why it was exceptionally beautiful and he couldn't help but smile.

A sound of rustling snaps the man out of his head space. He blinks his eyes twice to accommodate his eyes to the darkness Infront of him. He looks around in search of the sound through the window. His hold on the baby tightened.

It all happened too fast for his mind to process. A second ago he was looking around and a second after he could feel a sharp pain in his chest. Slowly he looks down to where he felt the pain, an arrow is stuck there right where his heart is. The man could feel how his yukata damping in dark red as the blood seep out of the wound. His arms weaken making him drop his baby to the ground with a loud thud and not long after followed by a cry. His body staggers forward and he falls chest first making the arrow stab even deeper inside. Head to the side looking at his crying baby that asks for their mother. The man coughs out blood as a trembling hand reaches out to the baby. Wanting to stop his baby from crying, to hold him close to his chest like how he did a second ago. Mustering all his energy he opens his mouth with a cough.

"Shhhh my joy..." He whispers. Vision blurred with how much blood he lost.

"Mommy's here.." his voice cracks. He wanted to touch his baby. Let him touch his baby. The man tries stretching his weak hand, just a little bit more he can touch his baby, his joy.

SPLAT

The blood splattered across the man's gorgeous face. The room goes quiet.

The man stares at his unmoving baby in shock. His mind processing what just happen. The room is quiet, too quiet for his liking. His beautiful blue eyes slowly widen and tears started to well up. His mouth was wide open in a silent scream when he finally realized what just happened to his joy. No No No No NO!

"Ahh.....ahhh...!" He wanted to scream, but the blood that gushed to his throat prevented him from doing it. Blood flows out of his mouth like a river as he tries, again and again, to call for his baby. Wants any reaction from his joy. Anything. 'Don't do this to mommy love....'

Black dot started decorating the man's vision. Tears fell uncontrollably from his dull eyes and on his last breath he heard a loud thud and

"Takemitchy!! We're home!" Follow by a burst of joyful laughter and the sound of his second husband scolding voice "quite down Mikey!, Takemitchy might be asleep"

A small smile made its way to the dying omega's face. Ah....he can't welcome them with a smile like he usually did. They must be tired.

Before the darkness came and fetch him his last thought was

"I want to at least properly introduce you, my joy"

Another loud thud could be heard.

"......... Takemitchy?"

That night Ryuuguuji-Sano Takemichi die with his joy.

His alphas were a second too late.

I'm sorry my alphas
