Izuku's POV:

The rest of the day was filled with the sound and smell of a possessive alpha. He had been brought back to the prince's room and put into a similar dress from the day before, only with some slight differences to the design.

Everytime a servant came to the door the alpha wouldn't hesitate to growl and snarl for them to go away. Even using his alpha voice on a couple unlucky souls. But instead of forcing himself onto the omega, he sat him in his lap on the bed, wrapping his cape around him in a warm cocoon.

Even when Kirishima came by and told him that he still had paperwork from the day prior. He picked the omega up bridal style and kept him close. Sitting him down in his lap as he began to work.

Izuku cleared his throat and decided to ask one of the questions that'd been pestering him. "W-why were you so mad that I was in that outfit?" He was once again ashamed of his stuttering but turned in his spot to try and face Katsuki.

It took a minute to get a response. "I know you're smart enough to have figured out why I took you out of that stupid faction..." He paused and took a deep breath. "The festival will be full of dumb alphas, I don't need them to be anymore tempted than they already will be."

"More tempted than they already will be?" The omega repeated, confused. What would be so tempting at the festival?

Katsuki sighed. "Have you seen yourself? Smelled your own scent once? Any alpha, maybe even beta, with half a brain would try and court you," He could see the hidden fear inside his crimson orbs. "Even if they know I'm courting you, some will be too sex-crazy monsters to care..." His voice died as he shook his head and went back to the paperwork on the desk.

He actually said it... Izuku smiled to himself. That was all he needed to try and return the kind favor. The prince was going out of his way to try and be as gentle and kind as he could for the one he was courting. It wasn't right if Izuku didn't try to swallow his own fears.

"Hey," He fully turned in his lap and cupped his cheek, "Don't worry! I know you'll be able to protect me, no problem!" He beamed. He could feel the alpha's spirits lift and was quickly suffocated in a bear hug. The way their happy pheromones mixed together was surprisingly pleasing.

"You're too cute..." Katsuki kissed Izuku's nose, making the smaller go cross eyed. "And ridiculous," He chuckled and put an arm under the smaller's rear, standing up. The omega clung to him like a koala as he sat him down on a red fainting couch next to a couple bookshelves. "There aren't many interesting reads but I'm sure you can find something," He gave one last toothy smirk and a kiss to his temple before sitting back down to go back to his work.

He hummed and went to find a novel to read.

His eyes fluttered open to the feeling of kisses being planted all over his face. He was met face to face with a gitty alpha. "Mornin'. I think the whole kingdom heard you purring." It warmed his heart to see the harsh prince be so soft. It also warmed his cheeks in embarrassment from his teasing.

"I'm comfortable..." He buried his face into the other's chest to hide his face, only for him to be pulled back up.

"Don't hide your face, okay kitten?" Kitten?! "Yes, do you not like it? I think it suits you," The prince winked at him. I said that out loud! I have to fix that... "I think it's cute, but try to keep it on the downlow."
