Narrator's POV

It was Steel's first morning in the house. He awoke with messy quills. He yawned and stretched, soon entering the bathroom. He pulled down his pajama pants to go to the bathroom. He had just started to let his liquids flow when...

"Boo!" Shouted a figure as it jumped out from the bathroom curtains.

"Ah!" Steel gasped pulling his pants up and firing a shock wave at the figure. There was a loud cry of pain, then a low groan. "What the?" Steel approached the bathtub and pulled the curtains to the side. Shadow laid on the bathtub floor. "Shadow!" Steel touched his shoulder.

"Owww... Scourge!" He cried as tears developed in his eyes. "Scourge!" He began sobbing. There were fast footsteps approaching.

"Shadow, I'm here!" He came into the bathroom. "What the hell Steel?!" He pushed Steel aside and approached Shadow. Shadow gave pained whines as Scourge carefully snaked his arms around him, trying his best to pick him up. "Sh, it's okay Shadow. It's okay..." Scourge picked him up, Shadow wrapped his arms around his neck and his legs around waist.

His muzzle was deeply buried into Scourge's neck and tears soaked emerald fur.

"I-I'm sorry. I-I didn't k-know-" Steel was cut of by an angered green hedgehog.

"We will discuss this later..." He growled as he walked out with Shadow. Steel let out a groan of regret and sighed.

Steel's POV

Great, my first day with my mate and I hurt him. I know he was only trying to be playful, but I couldn't help it. It was selfdefense. I just hope he's okay. I walked out of the bathroom. My room door was opened, and across I could see Scourge with Shadow in his arms still. He turned around to me and shut the door to his room.

Narrator's POV

After half an hour or so, Scourge finally came down stairs where Steel sat on the couch in the living room. He had his elbows placed on his knees and his hands together, making a bunch of knuckles connect with his chin. He was tapping his foot on the ground, when Scourge found him. He got up and faced Scourge.

"Is he okay? Is he alright?" Asked Steel.

"He's okay thank God. Your stupid wave could have killed him, he isn't as strong as he used to be long ago." Scourge told him.

"I didn't mean to..." Steel said glueing his ears to his head. "Can I go see him?"

"It's better if you don't. He's probably scared of you right now. At first I thought you were mating him...that would have been bad." Scourge growled.

"Please, I wanna see him." Emerald sighed.

"I guess you have every right since you're his mate as well." Scourge signaled for Steel to follow him.

Shortly the two arrived at Scourge's room. Shadow was wrapped in bandages. His forehead had a small wet towel over it. His fur chest was covered with bandages as well for the rest of his chest and stomach. His arms were tightly wrapped around his stomach as he groaned.

He grew quiet when he noticed Scourge at the doorway. "Scourge..." He groaned. Steel appeared behind Scourge, the pet gasped. He put the covers over his head and trembled.

"Hey it's okay Shadow." Scourge whispered calmly.

"No, take him away. Take him away. Take Steel away..." Whimpered the pet. Scourge looked at Steel.

Steel's ears lowered as he walked away, shutting the door.

"It's okay, he's gone now." Scourge laid by the pet. Shadow peeked out from his covers, he was safe. "Hey there precious. How's your head feeling?"

Steel's POV

How can I make this right? Do I just let time heal it? What if he doesn't want me anymore? Will he forgive me? Does he hate me now? Do I apologize? What do I do? Tell me, what should I do?

Narrator's POV

After several apologizes and explanations, Shadow finally accepted Steel back. They became close like Scourge and Shadow. Shadow loved both greatly.

As the weeks went by, Scourge and Steel grew closer and accepted each other. They became very good friends, just friends...although they did share the same submissive. Steel was still learning about Shadow. As he learned more, more interesting things got.

Right now the two were sitting on the couch, watching an action movie. They laughed at some parts and shared some drinks. It was all going well till Steel heard some noises up stairs...

"Do you hear that?" He asked.

"Hear what?" They was a loud scream from upstairs.

"That." Steel got up.

"Hey chill. It's just Shadow..." Scourge explained.

"What if he's in trouble?" Steel said looking back. Another loud scream was heard. Scourge laughed.

"Mating season is getting to Shadow..." He explained.

"What?"

"Yeah, he's the one who gets really going when it's deep into mating season first. It's his hormones..."

"What do you think he's doing up there?"

"He's probably playing with himself." Steel looked at Scourge. "He's probably masturba-"

"I'm gonna check on him."

"Okay, but it gets a little weird sometimes..." Scourge warned. Steel quickly got up there. He looked in Scourge's bedroom, he wasn't there...

He heard a loud moan coming from inside his bedroom. He sprang open the door.

On the floor sat the pet jerking himself off. He bit down on his lip as his fluids flowed down his hard cock. Steel blushed brightly. His bed had white streams of semen all over it, there was a dildo lying on his sheets. His bed was a mess. Another loud moan was given by the pet as white liquid shot into the air, Shadow's breath ran short and quick.

"Mmm..." He moaned, he looked at Steel. "C-come f-fuck me..." He moaned. Steel blushed more than before. "I've b-been a bad b-boy... Punish m-me..." Moaned the pet as he began removing his gloves.

"Gah!" Steel stomped his foot as he held his nose, preventing any blood from hitting the floor. He ran away before anything else happened. He ran to the kitchen ankle and washed his face.

"Let me guess... Shadow tried to..." Scourge chuckled.

"It's not funny... It was weird, strange..." Steel sighed.

"Hey, it happened to me. You just gotta roll with it." Steel dried his face and turned to Scourge.

"Yeah, but he did it all over my room! My bed is a mess, I don't even want to know what else is hiding in there. Why?"

"He wants to spread his scent. That way his scent will attract you to him, I'm telling you...it happened to me and I ran after like a dog chasing a rabbit. I just couldn't control myself. I'm telling you, better watch out...or else." Scourge showed some anger in his face, meaning to stay away from Shadow before Scourge claimed him.

Recently the black hedgehog had started to smell really good and delicious. Steel would get thoughts sometimes, but he didn't want to get in trouble with Scourge, so he tried to ignore Shadow. Scourge seemed to be taking affect to Shadow too.

He'd become more aggressive around Steel whenever he came close to Shadow. Scourge would always cuddle the black hedgehog, Steel tried but Scourge watched them closely.

It had become a war between the two best friends for a mate...
