The Stray Omega

3 Days

Mitch hugged Kevin once more before stepping into the penthouse and listening to the elevator descend. Scott came down from upstairs and he smiled when he saw Mitch.

"Hey, baby. Have fun at Kevin's?" He walked over and cupped Mitch's face to pull him up and kiss him on the lips. He then reached down and grabbed the car seat Mitch held with Noah inside.

"Yeah." Mitch went to the living room and set the diaper bag on the couch and looked over at Scott who was looking at him with a worried glance. "I'm sorry, sir, I didn't mean to be rude."

"Everything okay?" Scott walked over and set the car seat on the floor then unbuckled Noah to hold him.

"Kevin thinks Noah is Savage. He transformed into his pup today." Mitch said, Scott's face falling at Mitch's words. "Savages are the one's who wolf out easily and he knows that you transformed really early as a pup and now Noah just transformed and he still had five or six months till he should be transforming." Scott looked down at Noah who was sleeping quietly and the baby turned over in Scott's arms.

Scott reached down, running his finger over Noah's cheek. "I'll teach him, love. Once he's old enough to understand, I'll make sure he knows how to control it. I'll make sure he knows how to keep his Savage down. He doesn't deserve to go through what I did."

Mitch looked over with teary eyes and he nodded, walking over and letting his arms wrap around Scott's torso. Scott wrapped his arm around Mitch's shoulders, kissing the top of his head.

"Come on, it's getting late. You need to sleep."

Mitch went to the living room and grabbed the diaper bag and followed Scott upstairs. The two let Noah sleep with them that night, Scott not even able to shut his eyes. He was wide awake, not able to process the fact his youngest pup was a Savage. He knew what it was like, not as a child but at least as an adult to be Savage and not being able to enjoy being a normal person. He wasn't able to get a regular nine to five job, be in public areas for too long or travel to certain countries alone. The only thing Scott could do is rely on veteran checks and his military discounts. The only jobs he was able to get would be where it was necessary to be a Savage, which was the only way he was able to stay in the military after he had found out about his true nature.

Scott wanted nothing more than to take away that Savage part of Noah away just to keep him from suffering for the rest of his life. He knew Noah wouldn't be accepted in public school, he wouldn't be able to play with the other kids, he wouldn't be able to learn how to get a job once he was ready and he wouldn't be able to be a normal child like his siblings and it hurt Scott to even think about it.

He looked down at Mitch who was laying on his side, one hand over Noah's body to keep him still. He reached down, gently running his finger across Mitch's forehead to brush his long hair from in front of his face. He then laid down on his side, placing his hand on top of Mitch's as he stared at Noah.

"Alpha?" Scott's eyes darted up to Mitch who was slowly waking up. "I can feel your stress through my Mark, why are you up?"

Scott ran his thumb over Mitch's hand, a heavy sigh escaping his lips. "I can't sleep." Mitch sat up and pressed his hand to Scott's shoulder to push him to his back then lifted Noah to lay him on Scott's chest. He then crawled across the bed, tucking himself into Scott's side.

"Please don't worry about Noah," Mitch said, purring as Scott ran a hand over his side. "We'll talk in the morning about this. You need to sleep, please."

"Of course."

-3 Days Till the Wedding-

"Noah! No!" Scott rushed over and picked up Noah by the back of his neck, staring at the wet spot in the middle of the living room then glaring at the puppy in his fingers. "Bad boy!"

Mitch glanced over from the kitchen table, set down his fork and stood up, walking over to Scott. "Alpha... He's just a puppy, please calm down..."

"He's not just a puppy, Omega!" Scott turned around sharply, practically shoving Noah into Mitch's arms. Mitch's eyes widened as Scott's roughness. "He's a Savage and he knows it! Even as a human he knows to do his business in his diaper, not on the carpet that I have to clean and pay to get the stain out!"

Mitch frowned and stepped back, hugging the puppy close to his chest. "Even though you're not as bad as you were before, you're still Savage. You were once a puppy like Noah too. He's only five and a half months old, he can't even crawl as a human yet! Stop being so mean to him!" Mitch whimpered, tears forming in his eyes.

"He's a Savage, he needs to learn dis-"

"He's a fucking puppy!" Mitch shouted. "He's no different from the triplets when they first transitioned! You can't blame him being a Savage just because he has an accident on the carpet!"

Scott stared down at Mitch whose face relaxed and the Omega stepped back. He pinched the bridge of his nose, sighed and went to grab Noah but Mitch stepped back.

"Don't touch him..." Mitch whispered, his arms curling into his chest to keep Noah in his hold. He then rushed to the stairs and into his room, slamming his door behind him and locking it.

Mitch sat on his bed and held Noah out at an angle. The puppy squirmed and fell in Mitch's lap, crawling between his crossed legs for the warmth.
