Louis was sure the smile on his face would never fade.
He was dressed in a beautiful silk robe, and he was being catered to left and right as the reception went on around them. The doors to their grand hall had been opened for all citizens of the City, and Louis was pleased by the atmosphere and general glee that seemed to be filling the room.
If there was one thing Louis knew, it was that he had the groundwork to continue making this City great. His father, and the fathers before him, all made a place where its people flourished. He would have a worthy man beside him, who looked at him so dearly as well.
With that thought in mind, Louis turned his gaze from Lydia to search around the room. It wasn't hard to find Harry, who was dressed in his formal military garb. The armor emphasized his muscled body, and showed no doubt of the power of the Alpha.
It was as if Harry could sense Louis, because his eyes shot up to find him in seconds. His piercing glare made Louis struggle to swallow for a moment, hoping that it meant the man was just as ready for the ceremony as he was.
The night was moving quickly though, and as the sunrise grew nearer, the time for their bonding got closer. His pulse quickened, and his cheeks warmed.
"Lou," Lydia giggled quietly. "have you listened to a thing I've said?"
"I'm sorry," he wasn't at all, "I can't help but be distracted, sister."
"I understand, Lou." She gave him a soft smile. "It is almost time. You should go to mother, you'll have to begin council with her."
Louis' next exhale was shaky, but he managed to stand and make his way toward the middle of the room where his parents and several others stood. Among them, standing tall with his broad back on display to him, was Harry. Heat began to simmer in his belly as he got closer to him, his musky scent calling out to Louis like a siren.
He watched as the mans shoulders tensed, before he turned away from the man speaking to him to face Louis. His smoldering expression wasn't a new one tonight, or even ever to Louis, but it still sent a shiver down his spine. An urge to submit almost overwhelming.
He was ready to be Harry's.
"Omega," Harry purred, "the sun is rising."
"And I am ready." His confident words were more than likely undermined by the heat he could feel in his cheeks, but he didn't care. He was ready for his Alpha.
"You're going to cause my death," Harry smirked, chuckling to himself. "Your mother--"
"--was just on her way to gather you." Adrasteia appeared beside Harry, surprising Louis even thought he should have been. He had tunnel vision when it came to Harry. "You will see each other soon. For now, Louis, you must follow me."
Before Louis could leave to follow his mother, Harry pressed a kiss to his hand, a promise in his eyes.
-
"They'll be here until your knotted and bitten." His mothers' words were brisk and quick as she placed the sheer robe over his shoulders. "Once you're locked together, they'll approach. Harry likely won't react well, but it's up to you to keep him calm so they can take note of the bite and leave. After that, you two will be left alone." Louis finally had the nerve to look her in the eye once she stopped talking, and nodded his head to show he understood her.
"I love you, asteri mou. Don't second guess yourself, you're inner Omega will guide you." She hummed, calming Louis immensely. "I should go, I'm sure they're all waiting in the hall for us to be finished. Relax, okay, darling?"
She, along with the two slaves she had with her, left the room soon after. Louis was left by himself, but he didn't have long to overthink anything. Just as quickly as the doors closed behind his mother, the doors were thrust open again to reveal Harry. The man looked relieved at the sight of Louis in the room by himself, and was quick to move toward him.
"They'll be in shortly," The man muttered as he embraced Louis, surprised the Omega. "I just wanted to see you, smell you--- and be alone for a moment."
"Soon," Louis' voice cracked. "After this, we'll be alone." He murmured to the Alpha. Harry pursed his lips, nodding in acceptance.
"I'm going to knot you quickly now, but I'm going to enjoy you once they leave." His words left Louis breathless, and made the heat in his belly return. The door opened once more, and three familiar faces walked in that Louis tried to ignore immediately. He couldn't focus on them at the moment. He didn't want to think about them seeing him like this ever again.
At the same moment that Louis averted his eyes to the bedding, Harry moved to lick at his cent gland. The feeling made Louis gasp, and Harry took that as a sign to suck at the area.
The older mans hands moved down Louis' body, over the thin fabric of his robe, until he reached the boys hips. He lifted the robe slightly, but made no move to remove the clothing from the Omega. Louis figured the other men in the room was effecting him more than he was letting on, and let the clothing stay on.
Harry slipped a finger between his cheeks and rubbed at his hole where slick was readily leaking. Louis moaned, shocked over the pleasure, but welcomed it. He bit at the skin of Harry's exposed shoulder, attempting to suppress his moans as the same finger entered him. "Harry," He gasped out.
"Shh, baby," Harry's chest was rumbling protectively. "I can hardly stand this." Louis attempted to calm him, but only whimpered in response to another finger slipping inside him. "No one else will ever be exposed to you like this." His angry growl only made Louis more desperate.
"Please, just want you to mate me, Harry," His eyes began to water. He was overwhelmed, suddenly embarrassed in a way he hadn't expected. Not over the fact that people were seeing his body, but over the fact that his mating was so exposed. He felt vulnerable and just wanted the security that came with a bite mark engraved in his neck.
Harry's deep rumbling only grew louder, but his soft touches didn't falter once. He laid Louis back onto the silks and cloths spread over the bed, and once he fixed Louis' robe to continue to cover him, hiked his legs around his waist. Louis locked them together without prompting, and Harry squeezed at his thighs with his hands in response.
The loose chiton he wore made Harry's possessive nature easier as it helped expose as little of them as possible. Louis could feel him shift under him, until the man entered him in one, shallow thrust.
Louis' mouth fell open, breath feeling knocked out of him at the fullness he suddenly felt. Harry's deep growl echoed in the room, and Louis couldn't hold in his whine in response. He hadn't imagined that mating would feel like this.
Harry's hips ground against Louis, thrusts quick and deep. "'m gonna knot, princess." He gasped out. "Gonna knot you."
"Alpha," Louis cried out, desperation clear. He didn't have to wait much longer before he could feel his Alpha claim him. The bite on his neck was given simultaneously with Harry's knot, and Louis couldn't imagine experiencing that feeling ever again.
He had never felt so complete.
