Unexpected Happiness (Vegeta x Goku)

Chapter 11

A.N: This chapter contains violence and torture.

"Liar." The word was quiet and tired sounding startling the prince into sitting back up. Kome was staring at him with knowing eyes. Seba had managed to crawl under the older boy's shirt and was still distressed if the small hiccups and shivers were an indication but it was better than before. Sharp eyes cut to make sure they were alone before he answered the cub.

"You can speak?" Tiredly the cub nodded not really surprised the other male asked that.

"Tama, he said it wasn't safe for them to know. He said they'd take us away and do bad things." Kome explained and Vegeta found himself agreeing with the beta's wisdom. Hybrids were unique blends of two parent species so it was entirely possible to get random traits or "defects". Just because the species were compatible didn't mean the offspring would be stronger than either parent. Bardock would know a lot more about this sort of thing.

"Frieza wants saiyans for some project." Vegeta softly said. "If I had to guess you and your brother were their attempts to make stronger soldiers. If they knew how smart you were they would keep testing you."

"You lied." Kome stated again after processing what Vegeta said. It made sense and confirmed some of his own thoughts about why they were so much more interested in Tama than him and Seba. "You said you didn't care." The prince stared at him with a raised eyebrow.

"How can you tell?"

"Smelled it." Kome whispered with a confused look, like he wasn't sure how to explain more accurately.

"That's pretty impressive, yes I lied." Vegeta said leaning against the wall wincing as his body started to protest more heavily.

"Why?"

"Your tama and I, when they brought me here..." he trailed off trying to think of a way to explain things without sex involved.

"You made Tama have cubs." Kome bluntly pointed out. "All the males they put with him do it, and hurt him. Tama's not sick this time though."

"Yes, they brought me here to do that." Vegeta confirmed finding this awkward as hell. "You understand your Tama has heats right?" He waited to receive a nod from the cub.

"For us saiyans, there are pheromones when betas are in heat. They drugged the two of us and those pheromones caused me to mate with your tama. We bit each other and formed a bond. I don't remember what happened, but I will protect your tama as much as I can now, you and Seba as well."

"Tama's bit a lot of others but they never protected us." The cub stated not really understanding.

"Its different, you have to want the bond. I'm also an alpha, its my nature to protect betas and cubs." Vegeta explained. "What did you mean by your tama not being sick?"

"Last time he had cubs, he didn't eat." Kome whispered. "He just held me and Seba and was upset. He didn't sleep much either. We had to go back to our room when tama lost the cub."Vegeta understood what had happened.
