The Stray Omega

Visitors

"Scott!" Mitch ran from the elevators and into the hotel lobby. He looked around the room full of paramedics, policemen and two men with animal control vests pulling a blond wolf with a muzzle over his face towards the doors. "Alpha!"

The blond wolf turned his head over, saw Mitch then turned back around, willingly following the men out of the hotel. Mitch gasped and tried to climb under the police tape but was stopped by a strong hand. 

"Mitch," Kevin said. "Let him go. We'll see him tomorrow." He pulled Mitch to him and Mitch fell into his embrace. Mitch looked at the clothes in his arms and turned to hand them over to Kevin, Kevin let out a small laugh. "Thank you." 

"Where are they taking him?" Mitch asked as Kevin took off the blanket around his shoulders and put on the clothes. 

"Animal Control Shelter. We can know if he can be taken out tomorrow, if not he's probably going to do jail time." 

"J-Jail?" Mitch snapped his head over. 

"He's a Savage, Mitch. This is the fourth time he's done something while in Savage form. First three he was left off as a warning, who knows what he's going to do now?" Kevin sighed and he zipped up his jacket. A policeman stepped under the police tape and faced Kevin. 

"We're ready for your questioning, Alpha. Alpha Avi will be here shortly. Who is this?" The policeman asked, pointing to Mitch. 

Kevin rubbed Mitch's shoulder. "It doesn't matter, he isn't involved with this. Go to Matt's room, Mitch, Avi will be there soon." 

"Yes, sir." Mitch nodded and waved to the policeman before turning back to the elevator.

"How is he?" Matt asked, handing Bailey over to Mitch when he asked for her. 

"I'm not sure. He was taken by Animal Control. We won't be able to see him till tomorrow." Mitch sat down on the rolly chair. 

"Did he look okay?" 

"I'm not too sure, I wasn't paying attention to that." Mitch hissed and shifted on his bum, Bailey whining and balling Mitch's shirt in her hands. 

"You didn't get any aftercare huh? Want me to get some lotion?" Matt said and went to his suitcase. Mitch stood up, set Bailey in the middle of the one of the beds then stayed bent over the foot of it.

"I'm going to pull your pants down, Mitch." Matt said before slowly pulling Mitch's sweat pants down as well as his underwear. Mitch laid his head down as Matt rubbed the soothing lotion over his belt marks. His pants were pulled again and he stood up, crawling onto the bed to lay next to Bailey who toyed with his shirt.

"Thank you, Matt. Appreciate it."

Matt smiled, glad he was able to help and he sat on the rolly chair, pushing himself to the desk and phone. "How about some room service? Maybe we can get it by the time Avi and Kevin get back."

"Sounds nice."

"Alpha Scott?" Scott turned in his cell and looked up at the officer who started to unlock the cell door. "You have visitors."

Scott stood up and walked to the entrance of the cell, allowing the cop to clamp handcuffs on his wrists. He was pulled down the hallway and into a room full of tables and other Alphas and Betas sitting by themselves, waiting for their visitors. He took a look around the room, seeing Mitch and Avi sitting at a table, Cody in Mitch's arms.

"Off you go, Alpha." The cop said, clicking off Scott's cuffs and ushering him into the room. Scott walked over to the table and sat across Mitch and Avi silently.

Mitch in Scott's defeated look, stringy, dry hair, bloodshot eyes, cracked lips and an unclean face. He went to say something but Scott beat him to it.

"I can't change what happened, Mitch. I can't change the fact I'm a Savage. I can't change my anger issues and my tendency to burst without reason." Scott said as he drummed his fingers on the table. "I- You..." He took in a deep breath.

"You don't deserve this, Mitch. You don't deserve to put up with any of the crap I give you. You don't deserve to be punished for stating your opinion. You dont deserve ant of it."

Mitch stared at Scott with watery eyes and he just nodded, unsure of how to respond.

"I know I said I wanted to start being a better man but... I don't think I'm ready yet, Mitch. I can't be the man I want to be... Not yet." Scott said, finally looking up and meeting Mitch's eyes. "We need to seperate."

"Scott," Avi butted in. "Think about this."

"I am." Scott snapped. "I'm too out of control, Kaplan. The next time I go Savage, I don't want that to be around Mitch and the kids. I'll end up hurting one of them. I need to get myself under control. I need some time apart from all of you."

"What about the babies?" Mitch asked, and Scott grabbed Cody to hold him.

"I'm going to miss them, obviously, but I just can't be here right now, Omega, it's not good for any of you." Scott said, staring at the sleeping baby. "I won't be going back to Los Angeles. I don't know where I'm going from here but I'll figure it out so I want you to go back home, Mitch. You'll still have everything, access to my bank account, the penthouse, I just won't be there."

Mitch swallowed the lump in his throat.

"Go home, love." Scott said and stood up, reaching over the table to hand Avi Cody. "Come give me a hug."

Mitch got out of his chair and tackled Scott in a tight hug, a soft sob escaping his mouth when Scott hugged him back. He felt himself get pushed and he looked up only for Scott to get on his knees.

Scott placed his hands over Mitch's small tummy and kissed it gently. "I'm just hoping I'll be back in time to see my baby being born. I can't make any promises though." He sniffles.

"Promise me you'll be safe? You won't wolf out o-or find another Omega?" Mitch asked, Scott standing back up and grabbing Mitch's hands.

"I promise, love." Scott crouched over, kissing Mitch on the lips before pulling back. He looked over at Avi. "Take care of Mitch for me until I get back. Don't let anyone hurt him."

Avi, who had his own tears in his eyes, nodded and watched Scott leave the room, a policeman walking behind him.
