Devotion [Larry A/B/O]

II

Louis sighed happily as he rested in his bed, trying to enjoy the relaxing quiet for a bit longer. The sun was shining through his windows, and he reveled in the warmth it provided.

He knew eventually he would have to get up. He had already sent Celeas away once when she came knocking on his door, just so that he could bask in his own happiness for a bit longer.

He had kissed Harry last night.

The Omega licked his lips at the memory, a blush growing on his cheeks. Harry had been quick to respond to the kiss, and it was the best decision Louis could have made.

They had spent a long time by the water, long enough that the sky was pitch black and he was fighting the sleepiness that was overcoming him. After the kiss, they shared a few more that made Louis' skin flush red and become a bit shy.

When Harry caught on to the fact that Louis was trying to ignore sleep, he had helped the boy up and walked him to his bedroom, leaving after pressing a kiss to the Omega's forehead and telling him he hoped to see him soon.

"Prince?" The knocking came to Louis' door again, and he pouted as he was taken out of his daze. He acknowledged Celeas and watched as she poked her head in, looking apologetic. "I'm sorry, your parents are requesting your presence at breakfast."

"Thank you, Celeas." Louis hummed in reply, standing from bed. "Lay out my clothing."

The slave girl obliged immediately, and Louis went about his morning routine as she did so. He rubbed some of the lavender oil onto his wrists, and moved his fluffy hair around until it looked a bit more presentable.

Once he was done he went back to his bedroom, having Celeas help him slip into the baby blue tunic, gold headband and matching gold sandals before heading toward his parents.

As Louis walked he couldn't help but smile happily to himself, thinking of the different ways he could tel his parents about his final decision. After last nights confirmation, the Omega was ready to announce his decision. He would get to mate with Harry, and kiss his plush red lips and have a constant protector in the Alpha. He couldn't wait for his life to come.

As Louis entered his parents common room, where his mother was eating bread filled with jellied fruits and his father was laying on a large sofa, blankets spread along his lower half. "Good morning."

"Louis, darling," Adrasteia beamed at his entrance, holding out her arms for him to slip into. Louis sighed happily as he did so, snuggling up to her robe covered chest, content as she ran her fingers through his hair. "You left so quickly last night, we were looking for you."

"Sorry mother---" Louis cleared his throat, feeling his face begin to heat up. "I would like to talk to you about that, actually."

"Hold that though, Louis." Kassandros' deep voice echoed in the quiet room. Louis turned his gaze to the man, watching as he held the blankets around his lower half while walking toward them.

The Alpha sat at the bottom of my mothers resting place, and they shared a knowing look with each other. It puzzled Louis. "What's going on?"

"Louis, it's becoming apparent that you're not making a choice on who you will marry." Louis' eyebrows furrowed in confusion, and went to interupt his father, only to be silenced. "We've decided that since you are stalling, Alcon will be your consort."

"No!" Louis shouted, eyes wide in shock. Adrasteia went to comfort him, but he moved away. "I have chosen!"

"Louis?" The Omega queen questioned in shock. "Are you serious?"
