The Raven Omega

Aftermath

Casey pov:

I woke up to warmth around me, my eyes and body still felt heavy, but my heat was over. I felt two strong arms around me and I was cuddled up next to someone. Memories of my last actions with Donnie replayed in my head and I felt heat rush to my cheeks.

So... I have an alpha now... and it's my crush... or should I say boyfriend? Friends with benefits? Just Alpha?

Anyhow, I open my eyes to see him sleeping peacefully. He was adorable. Though he's almost 6'5, he still has a baby face. His pale green skin with the slightly darker or lighter spots spread around it, making much tighter freckles than Mikey has on his cheeks, a faded scar over his left eye, and his little gap making a slight whistling noise as he softly snores, missing his purple mask. I was so busy admiring his skin, I didn't notice when he woke up.

"Morning." He beamed as he startled me, then intrusive thoughts started coming in.

'Stupid omega.'

'Donnie could never love you.'

'He's too good for you. No one wants broken leftovers.'

'He's too smart.'

'To kind.'

'You are asshole plastic beta front trash that could never be-'

"Casey?! Can you hear me?!" I heard Donnie panicking as I snapped out of my thoughts.

"... I'm sorry..." I whisper to the point it was barely audible. He heard me and hints of concern could be found in his scent.

"What do you mean 'sorry'?" He asked me.

"I-I... I forced you t-to sleep with me... My stupid pheromones... A-and now I-I-"

"You didn't force me to do shit. I realized I loved you only a month after meeting you... I just acted like a jerk because I couldn't smell your lovely scent. I couldn't figure out what you were feeling, thinking, or anything. Please don't blame yourself, thinking you forced me to mark you or for the stupid amazing sex we had." He says, color rushing to his cheeks as he finished. I felt my cheeks heat up.

"... S-so, what does this m-make... Us?" I ask him.

"... Boyfriends?" He asked me. I smiled.

"That sounds great." I tell him as I press my forehead on his and close my eyes.

There was silence for a while before he spoke up.

"We should clean up, and don't think I didn't notice that you stole one of my pillows." He tells me and we both laugh a bit.

"I'll take care of that. You know how omegas are with their nests." I tell him, he gives me a bit of a hum of understandment.

"But first, I think we both need a shower. As much as I love my scent on you, I think we both have a thing about sticky." He halfway jokes. We both laugh a bit as he leads us to the nearest bathroom and started a shower for the both of us.

We cuddle more as the shower heats up and then hop in. I pulled back my hair to wash it, tilting my head up a bit, and Don took the chance to kiss my nose, which got me to freeze for a moment.

... Ok, so I froze for longer than a moment as my brain rebooted...

"How did I not figure out you were an omega earlier?" He asked as he pulled me closer to him, but not in a sexual way, soap in my hair still. I lean into him a bit and smile.

"Well, I have been hiding it since I moved to New York. I think it's cause I practiced." I joked and teased. It got a laugh out of him as he let me go slightly.

I got an idea after he left go and I smiled. I placed my hands up on his shoulders to bring him down to me quickly and kissed him on his snoot. He turned red so quickly that it was almost hilarious.

"What the-... You-... *Aggravated groan*" I laughed as he fumbled over his words and I finished washing my hair.

We both finished showering and getting dressed within the next "Earth Hour," as Fugidoid put it, and walked out of the bathroom. I dismantled the nest and we both carried it to the washer, going back to get my pack's hoodies, which weren't part of the nest, later. Then, and only then, we joined the others for lunch.

We got some strange looks from the others. Leo's and April were approving, Raph looked conflicted, Mona smiling, same with Fugidoid, and poor Mikey just looked confused.

"... So... Did you make sure to use protection?" Leo asked us and Don froze for a moment.

"Don't sweat it, Don. I most likely can't get pregnant because of my birth mother. She liked alcohol more than the child she was carrying." I kind of joke and laugh a bit until I realized that the others aren't laughing with me. I look up to see horrified faces.

"... And that's the last straw. You are getting therapy." Raph tells me.

"Haha, nope." I laughed at him.

"... Casey, he may be right on this... How much trauma do you really have?" Donnie asked me concern seeping out in his scent.

"I'm fine, Don. My birth mom was just a bit... careless... But that's why I have to get my dad back... The government might take me back to my birth parents, which isn't a good idea..." I trail off a bit.

"Casey, I don't think you're 'fine'. You've already been traumatized before we were basically thrown into fighting several wars. Intergalactic and clan... You need help." April told me.

"No, I don't. I just have to get my pack back! Everything will return to normal as soon as I get them back! I-I... I know it..." I start to trail off and cry a bit.

Are these after heat hormones?... Is that why I'm so emotional?

Gods, everything was all over the place.

I tear up, so close to absolutely sobbing. I wanted my family back and to go home. Everything was getting to me and my breathing starts to get out of control.

Donnie was instantly by my side, holding me close as my scent soured from distress. I start to cry in his shoulder as everyone else watched with concerned looks.

Donnie gently calms me down with soft shushes and running his hand through my hair. When I was calm, he picked me up and took me to bed. I had fallen asleep in his arms.

I just want them back.
