"Dad stop-"

David growled as he punched Tyson in the face,causing the younger dominant to let out a cry of pain.

"I'm okay. I just had to let out the anger." Stated David as he stepped away from the bleeding man and took a seat next to his youngest child.

"It's okay Tanner, a baby is great news. I'm disappointed that you fell pregnant out of wedlock but there is nothing we can do about it now."

David hugged his crying son and Alex joined in.

"They need to get married before he starts showing. What will tht people say about us? The shame it will bring. Don't get me wrong I am ecstatic about the baby, but still... We need to keep up appearances." Said Elena as she handed her son a tissue for his bleeding nose.

"Yes. We'll get you two married right after Bear and Titus' formal wedding." Concluded Mike.

"Is anyone going to ask the pair what they want?"

All eyes turned to Bear who sat in the corner of the room with his head on Titus' shoulder.

"Do they want to get married right now? Society sucks and following the norms is stupid. Don't rush them into a marriage that they aren't ready for, it might create problems in the future."

Titus hummed in agreement as he rubbed his mates back. Bear smelt amazing and Titus had to restrain himself from inhaling his sweet scent, and scenting the man in his father's house with an audience before them.

Bear felt weak and closed his eyes after stating his opinion.

"I want to marry Tanner, but when and if that happens is up to him." Stated Tyson as he looked at his omega.

Said omega looked up from his hands that were wet from his tears, and locked eyes with the man who had planted his seed in his body.

Tanner loved Tyson, he knew thay they had not known each other for long but the man did something to him. He made his heart beat faster, palms sweaty and all those other cliche things that happened when one fell in love.

Tanner would marry Tyson in an instant and he was happy that he was carrying his child. In a few months he would hold their child in his arms, he was beyond excited.

But he feared that it was too soon, he feared not being ready for marriage and parenthood. He was afraid of being on his own and not having his parents there to guide him each and every step of the way.

At moments like these he envied Bear. Bear was independent, he knew how to survive on his own. Bear knew the outside world and was fearless, unlike Tanner, Bear did not need their fathers to guidance, he could do it all on his own.

"I'm scared."

Alex took Tanner's hand and pulled him upstairs to his bedroom, Bear followed despite his weak state. The submissive needed a talk with those who understood, an alpha and a beta would never understand the pain and tribulations of being an omega.

"Sweetie having a child is big deal. But I know you can do it, I know that you'll make a great husband and an amazing father."

"Really?" Tanner took his father's hand and placed it on his stomach.

"There's a life in there Pa, a baby is going to grow. How am I supposed-"

"You'll know. It will all come automatically and if you need help I'll be here, we'll all be here to help you baby. Marriage doesn't mean we'll forsake you. This will always be your home."

"He's right Tanner."

Bear walked into that room and sat on the bed.

" We'll always be here. But don't rush things please. Take your time, if you want to give birth first and then get married, do it. No one will contest your decision, I'll fight them."

Tanner laughed and hugged his older brother.

"I love you Bear."

"I love you too." Said Bear before pulling away rather quickly from his brother.

Tanner's touch burned him. And all he wanted was his alpha and his nest.

"You should go home love, you're going into heat." Stated Alex as he watched his son wrinkle his nose at the pillow he had laid his head on.

The room smelt wrong, an omega needed his alphas scent during his heat. Any other scent would make him nauseous and any other touch would burn his skin.

"You're probably right I-"

Bear let out a whimper as he felt a sharp pain in his stomach.

This is why he took suppressants, to avoid pain and stupid nausea. But he had foolishly forgotten to take one of his pills and it had messed up his hormones and now he was suffering the consequences of his mistake.

"Titus!"

Titus let go of the bloodied cotton bud and ran upstairs. He found Dańte laying on the bed whimpering in pain.

He felt his chest tighten at the sight and found himself going into alpha mode as he helped his omega get to his feet and lead him downstairs.

Titus ignored his mother's call and helped his mate into the backseat of the car before hopping in and driving home.

Dańte needed him.

°•°•

Bear let out a mewl as he was placed on their bed. His body was heating up and he cursed as another shot of pain racked through his body rendering him immobile for a few seconds.

"Dańte?"

Titus didn't know what to do. He has read up on these things and had taken a few classes but those were nothing compared to the actual thing.

His omega was going into heat.

He cursed as he pulled at his hair before slapping himself. He had to stay calm. He had to clear his head and be there for his husband.

"I'm okay."

Bear panted as he rolled onto his side and looked at the other male.

"Don't panic. It's just the pre-heat. It's worse because I've been on suppressants-"

"I know, I'm a doctor remember?"

Bear nodded.

"How about you get me some water and fruits and tell me all about medical school?"

Titus nodded and rushed to the kitchen while Bear took the opportunity to undress while his body was still in a state of calm.

"So what do you want to know?"

Titus wrapped his arms around Dańte and leaned against the headboard. The submissive took a sip of water and thought for a second before smiling.

"Start from the beginning. I want to know everything."

"Everything?" Titus raised a brow and Bear turned to look at him.

The omega leaned in and kissed the man before pulling away with an even bigger smile.

"Everything, I want to know just how naughty my Alpha is."

Titus threw his head back and laughed. The Goddess had really bless him and he was grateful.

°•°•

"Hey" whispered

a voice from the doorway.

Tanner pulled down the blanket and patted the spot next to him.

Tyson took off his shoes and climbed into bed next to the man. The omega placed his head on the alphas chest and traced circles on his lower abdomen.

"I want to get married."

Tyson drew in a sharp breath.

"But not right now."

The alpha exhaled in relief.

"Thank you so fucking much!"

Tyson flipped them over and placed kisses all over the omegas face causing the latter to burst into a fit of giggles.

"I love you Tanner, Goddess knows I do. But marriage is a big step and you deserve a proper proposal and planning. And a proper engagement. You deserve the world baby, and I'm going to give it to you."

Tanner smiled and placed a hand on the alpha's cheek.

"But I want to move in with you. I want you to be there at every step of the pregnancy."

Tyson rolled his eyes.

"As if I was going to let you stay here. Baby you're moving out today. And no one can stop me."

"Your mother is gonna be pissed."commented Tanner.

Elena was a sucker for tradition and would not take the cohabitation before marriage well. Heck the pregnancy had already thrown a spanner in the works.

"Mom can suck it up. All our parents can. No one is going to stop me from taking you home with me tonight. No one."

And Tanner let out a low moan as the man's lips met his.

"Hey stop that! This is the reason why you're pregnant, horny bastards!"

Shouted Jessie as she slammed the door open and laughed at the shocked pair of mates.

"Jessie!" Whined Tanner as Tyson moved off of him.

"I'm just doing my job as a party popping sister." She said with a smile before yelping,and running away from Tanner who grabbed a few pillows and started throwing them at her.

°•°•

"And then what did you do?"

"Well...I stripped down into my birthday suit...And ran into the meeting."

Bear threw his head back and laughed.

He couldn't believe that his mate had been such a naughty college student. Running naked into a board meeting took the cake of all college fuck ups and pranks.

"Were you expelled?" Asked the omega once he had calmed down.

Titus shook his head.

"The Dean didn't appreciate the view of my family jewels and I was kicked out the very next day. But my marks were good enough to get me a spot at another school. Mother wasn't impressed and father.. He was proud."

Bear shook his head at his mates past actions. The man was unpredictable and funny. Bear could never have done what he did.

Ever.

"Did you do anything naughty?" Asked Titus as he played with his mate's soft hair.

Bear's afro was always soft, the man hardly used any products in his hair but it always remained soft and always had a healthy glow. Titus loved it.

"Well..."

The naughtiest thing Bear had done as a teenager was sneak his boyfriend into the house and have sex with him, with his parents' bedroom just down the hall.

It was one of his proudest and funniest moments.

But he knew that that was one memory he wouldn't ever share with his husband, no matter how open they were with each other. Some things you just kept to yourself.

"Well?"

Bear licked his bottom lip before placing his empty plate on the bedside table.

He straddled his alpha and smirked as he saw a flash of lust in the alpha's eyes.

"How about I give you a sneak pic into how naughty I can be?"

The omega traced a line down the man's chest all the way to the waistband of his boxers that he had stripped down into before he had gotten into bed.

"Bear.. you said no sex."

Titus resisted the urge to flip them over and take control of the man's lips and body.

He wanted Bear to set the limits of whatever it was he planned on doing.

"I know. We're not going to have sex Alpha.. But a little fun."

The omega slid his under the waistband and straight to his mates thickening length.

"Dańte..." Titus growled.

"Shoosh. You ran naked at school, let me show you how naughty I can be."

Bear leaned in and planted his lips onto his mates as he wrapped his hand around the enlarging member.

Titus was about to learn that Bear wasn't as innocent as he looked.
