"Sir Lohen, don't!"
Illuga calls out rather helplessly as he watches the knight ignore him and charge into the fog alone. They were currently at the outskirts of Kipumaki Cliff, where the Wild Hunt outbreak is at its worst.
Although he's heard stories about this knight from the other Lightkeepers, this was his first time actually on a mission with him. He had been under the impression that the Lightkeepers were exaggerating, but he's unfortunately finding out first-hand that this wasn't the case.
Another detail he remembers about this knight is that he's an omega. He recalls how some rumors had circled around about Lohen being Grandmaster Varka's omega mate, which Illuga had quickly shut down before it got out of hand. It wasn't appropriate to assume things like that, and it had left a bad taste in his mouth being an omega himself.
But that wasn't important at the moment; he still needs to go after the Vice Captain!
This was supposed to be a simple task of lighting up some of the lamps in the contaminated area to make future patrols or investigations easier. Due to the heightened dangers of this area, Illuga opted to go on his own as to not put the other Lightkeepers at risk. This was something he could carry out alone anyway. There was also the relief of not needing to look after anyone else on a solo mission.
But as he reached the outskirts of the contaminated region, Illuga noticed a new presence following him. Immediately putting his guard up, he wields his polearm and points it towards a nearby tree.
"Who's there, show yourself!" he warns, expression hardening.
There isn't an answer at first, which only causes him to tighten his grip on his spear. But a moment later, blue hair peeks out from behind the tree trunk, soon revealing a young man with striking red eyes. An amused smile graces this man's features before he fully steps out from behind the tree.
It only takes a second for Illuga to recognize the Knights of Favonius emblem. Sighing in relief, he lowers his polearm.
"My apologies, I didn't expect it to be one of the knights—"
Before he can finish his sentence, something glints in his vision. His body reacts before his brain, sidestepping the dagger that just barely missed his eye.
"Ooh, so you really are as good as they say!" the young knight grins gleefully, appearing a bit too pleased with the result.
Illuga is still processing what just happened, stunned into silence from the absurdity of it. This man, clearly a Knight of Favonius, just tried to take out his eye. He'd suspect that it's an Abyssal illusion if it weren't for the fact he's not within the contaminated region yet.
"Where's your little bird? I heard you're the squad leader that has a cute little birdie," the knight asks, casually approaching him with seemingly no remorse.
Warily, Illuga takes a step back.
"Which company are you from?" he frowns, "I was under the impression the knights knew better than to attack innocent people," he scolds. "And the 'little bird' you refer to has a name. He's Aedon," he adds, perhaps out of spite.
The blue-haired knight shrugs, twirling another dagger between his fingers.
"I only did it because I knew you'd dodge it," he replies as if that excuses his behavior.
"And if I didn't?"
"But you did, so it doesn't matter, right?" The young knight flashes him another grin.
Illuga only narrows his eyes.
"You didn't answer my question."
"Okay, okay," the knight waves his hands, "so serious, Birdie."
Illuga makes a face at the sudden nickname.
"You may call me Lohen, Vice Captain of the Knights of Favonius' Fifth Company," he introduces himself with a graceful bow that is almost the perfect image of a proper knight. But even a glance at the crazed intensity behind his eyes would break that illusion.
Wait— Vice Captain!?
Suddenly a memory surfaces, and he starts connecting the dots in his head. This is most likely the insane Vice Captain he kept hearing about from the other Lightkeepers. He just didn't realize the knight was this unhinged!
But if this young man is a Vice Captain, then he must be quite favored by the Knights of Favonius. It wouldn't be ideal to create unnecessary bad blood between them.
Taking a deep breath to calm himself, Illuga addresses the knight again.
"Sir Lohen, I would advise that you head back, as this path leads to Kipumaki Cliff. Heavy abyssal energy permeates it, making it dangerous for most people to stay within it for too long," he warns.
Lohen's eyes seem to glint at this, giving Illuga a bad feeling.
"Oh? Abyssal energy you say?" the young knight hums, sauntering over to him, "and a high concentration of abyssal energy is the perfect breeding ground for monsters."
Oh, maybe he is getting through to him.
"Yes, that would be correct. So, I would advise that you—" Illuga starts to speak, but Lohen takes off before he can finish.
"Perfect! I was starting to run out of hunting grounds in the other regions," the knight laughs as he runs into the fog.
"Wait," Illuga calls out, startled again by this knight's unpredictable behavior, "Sir Lohen, don't!"
He should've expected that he'd be ignored again. It's unsafe for the Vice Captain to charge in alone. A part of his brain reminds him that he was planning on doing the exact same thing, but he shoves it down by telling himself that he's more experienced with the area. But this must be Lohen's first time within that contaminated region! It's his duty as a Lightkeeper to ensure the knight's safety.
Not wasting any more time, Illuga runs into the fog as well.
Although he thought he had lost sight of Lohen, it was surprisingly easy to find him. After all, it was rather hard to miss the maniacal laughter coming from the direction where there were bright flashes of a cryo vision activating.
Once he's close enough to make out the figures through the fog, he's met with a gruesome sight.
Abyssal monsters are strewn about the ground, some missing limbs while others have gaping holes through them oozing a disgusting black blood. Taking out that many of the Wild Hunt in such a short amount of time? Even the most experienced Lightkeepers would struggle doing that.
Despite that, the amount of abyssal remains splattered all over Lohen's body is not safe for a human to be exposed to for too long.
Eyebrows furrowing in concern, Illuga cuts down one of the Wild Hunt monsters that strayed his way before making his way over to Lohen. But as he gets closer, he notices a scent that doesn't belong— apple cider…?
The scent distracts him enough that he barely dodges an attack from one of the raptor-like abyssal creatures. As he raises his polearm to strike the monster in retaliation, spears of ice pierce through the creature's throat and body. It lets out a guttural screech, jerking unnaturally before falling to the ground. Still twitching, it opens its beak to try and bite at Illuga's feet. In response, Illuga jabs his polearm into its eye without hesitation. Finally, the creature disintegrates and only leaves behind a fractured eye.
Illuga is ready to fight more of the abyssal army, but he realizes Lohen has disappeared yet again. But there's still that scent of apple cider lingering. With there being no more monsters left, he presumes that the crazed knight went to seek out more of them. Which means going much deeper into the contaminated area. The Vice Captain appeared plenty capable, but humans can't withstand that level of abyssal contamination for too long. As far as he's aware, Lohen wasn't carrying any kuuvahki-powered lamp with him either.
Quickly lighting up one of the nearby lamps to make the path back safer, Illuga heads in the direction where the apple cider scent seems stronger. There's a slight suspicion he has about Lohen's current state, but he's not certain yet.
It doesn't take long before he finds the Vice Captain again.
He is greeted with quite a sight; the young knight has his hand wrapped around the throat of a beast almost thrice his size, having it twitch under his grip as he lifts it above a pile of dead bodies. There's a crazed look in his eyes matched with a maniacal grin, far too gleeful over the gruesome display. Illuga can't tell if he's horrified or in awe.
But as he expected, fighting that many abyssal creatures seems to have taken a toll on Lohen. He sees the way the knight's chest heaves heavily, his hand holding the beast faintly trembling as his other hand grips tightly onto the polearm that's supporting part of his weight. Illuga then notices the deep gash across Lohen's thigh, the white fabric of his pants completely dyed in red. It was astounding that the other man could still stand in that state.
"Vice Captain Lohen!" Illuga calls out as he runs over, "you shouldn't be going much deeper into this area with your injuries!" he warns.
Chest still rising and falling with heavy breaths, the knight spares him a glance. His eyes almost seem to unnaturally glow in the darkness of the fog, but that must be his mind playing tricks on him.
Carelessly, Lohen tosses the monster's dead body aside. Illuga sighs in relief. Finally, it appeared that the Vice Captain was willing to listen.
Illuga reaches a hand out in support, expecting Lohen to take it as he makes his way down the hill of bodies.
Instead, Illuga finds his head getting whipped to the side, a sudden pain blossoming in his right cheek.
Did… did he just…?!
He's at a loss for words as he processes that Lohen just punched him. The said knight only cackles in response, not a hint of remorse in his expression.
"I heard you're strong. Spar with me," Lohen grins, the crazed look in his eyes still not gone.
Illuga almost hits him back out of reflex, but he holds back the impulse. As annoying as this knight is, he's still heavily injured. It's a mystery how he's still conscious, actually.
"Absolutely not. You need to come back with me so a medic can attend to you," Illuga replies sternly.
"Hah, boring," Lohen rolls his eyes, before jabbing forward with his polearm. Illuga deflects the attack with his own weapon, letting it impale the ground instead.
"Vice Captain Lohen, I believe the blood loss is getting to your head," he tries reasoning again, "please put down your weapon, and we can head back to get you treated."
There isn't an immediate response from Lohen, the knight instead staring at him peculiarly. Illuga then notices that his eyes appear a bit out of focus. That apple cider scent was getting stronger too.
He can't ponder on it for too long before Lohen lunges at him, though.
Illuga jumps back to create distance, but Lohen immediately closes it as he attacks with his polearm again. There's an uncomfortable amount of killing intent behind those strikes. A lesser Lightkeeper would've likely been impaled by now.
Continuing to deflect Lohen's attacks, he's forced to stay on the defensive so that he doesn't worsen the knight's already deep injuries. But he finds himself struggling to focus because of that scent of cider, now almost turning sickly sweet. He's certain now that the scent is coming from Lohen.
Although it was common for omegas to carry a sweeter scent on average, the intensity of Lohen's was not normal. Not unless…
Illuga's eyes widen in realization.
Although rare, there were some cases of omegas who get unusually aggressive both before and during their heats. The intensity of this scent would make sense if Lohen was currently in pre-heat!
Then it's even more urgent that he gets Lohen out of this place; from what he can tell from the scent, the knight was currently on the verge of going into a full-blown heat. And he's insane enough to still try and fight him!
They aren't getting anywhere if Illuga stays on the defensive. Although he would've liked to avoid hurting Lohen, the knight left him with no choice.
As Lohen lunges at him again, Illuga uses the momentum against him to flip him onto the ground instead. The knight's polearm slips out of his grip, leaving him helpless as Illuga pins him down with his own weight. It likely would've been more of a struggle had the Vice Captain been in peak condition, but Illuga could easily take down an injured man— even if that injured man might be an infamously insane knight.
"I will take you back restrained if I have to," Illuga threatens, eyebrows furrowing as he increases the pressure against the other man's chest.
"Mnn… just like that…" Lohen sighs, "you can hit me harder, y'know?" He smiles slyly.
Illuga sputters in response.
"Absolutely not!" He barely avoids shrieking in horror.
"Really? I wouldn't mind, though… You're a cute birdie," Lohen drawls out, his eyes half lidded as he gazes up at him.
"If you are trying to court me, I will have to disappoint you, as I am another omega," Illuga frowns. It wasn't hard to guess that Lohen had sadistic tendencies, but it appears that he's masochistic as well!
"So? Doesn't matter to me with a pretty little birdie like you," Lohen smirks.
Illuga can feel his own cheeks heat up in real time. His fraying patience has its limits, and it was just short of preventing him from punching Lohen to knock him out cold.
He feels the knight go lax beneath him and can't help the sigh of relief that escapes him. It was dangerous for both of them to stay here for too long. Although he has higher tolerance for the abyssal contamination in the area, he could tell that even he was starting to approach that limit.
The knight passed out beneath him didn't seem to be in a good state either. Lohen's body was starting to burn up, and he could feel him slightly tremble. It's very likely he was running purely off of adrenaline, and now his body is crying for help after it wore out.
Crawling off of him, Illuga straps his own and Lohen's polearms across his back before lifting up the knight in a bridal carry. He starts heading towards Cliffwatch Camp, but quickly realizes that he shouldn't be going there with the current state Lohen is in. Many of the Lightkeepers were alphas, and although he trusts in his subordinates, he didn't want to take any risks with an omega in heat with him. The Favonius Keep would likely be similar as well.
Although it's a little far, taking Lohen back to Piramida might be the best bet for now. He would need somewhere to stay alone during his heat, and neither camp seemed like a good option. He'll inform Grandmaster Varka about the situation right after; he's sure the older knight will understand.
He couldn't avoid the strange looks he got as he made his way to Piramida. It'd be hard not to stare with him carrying a bloodied knight in his arms while strong omega pheromones permeated from them. At least Lohen wasn't actively bleeding out anymore. Illuga had dropped by Cliffwatch Camp to treat the more urgent injuries with the help of a medic. He hadn't stayed too long though, because he could tell that the alpha Lightkeepers were hanging on by a thread with Lohen's pheromones clawing at their instincts.
Luckily, no one questions him as he walks through the streets of Piramida thanks to his reputation. Even then, he hurries to his home to give the knight some privacy.
Approaching his door, he adjusts Lohen in his arms so he can unlock it. A few attempts are needed, but he manages in the end.
Lohen has too much blood and grime on him to be put in the bed, but he also doesn't want to leave him on the floor. Illuga compromises by gently placing the knight on the couch. Setting the polearms against a nearby wall, he then takes off his outermost layer and tosses it into the laundry bin. That's going to take a while to wash out by hand.
After, he wets a washcloth before coming back to Lohen's side so he could clean him. Illuga's own heats make him feel gross and unpleasant; he knows that if he were to personally wake up covered in grime during his heat, that'd be his last straw.
Illuga brings the washcloth near Lohen's face, hesitating for a moment as he gazes down at the knight. He can't help but think that Lohen has fine features; long lashes cast a subtle shadow over his flushed skin, a small mole adorning a spot under his right eye. His parted lips look soft, quiet breaths slipping out from them. Lohen's face had looked sharper back when they fought, but seeing him relaxed and asleep paints him in a gentler image.
His own cheeks heat up as he realizes he's been staring for longer than intended. He chastises himself; he shouldn't be gawking at someone unconscious.
Lowering the washcloth, he starts to wipe off the dirt and blood. But not even a few seconds in, he feels Lohen shift and press his cheek against the fabric. The knight makes a pleased sigh, seemingly content at the touch.
Illuga tenses up for a moment, worried that he might've woken up Lohen. Luckily, the knight only stirs a bit before settling down again. Illuga allows himself to relax again. The washcloth is cold, so it makes sense that Lohen would be seeking it out during his heat. Illuga recalls how he'd sometimes fill a bottle with ice just so he could hold it and not go insane.
It doesn't take long to finish cleaning Lohen's face, but he then runs into a slight problem. His clothes…
The knight is wearing several layers, likely at least four… maybe even five; he can't quite tell. But he needs to remove them if he wants to clean him up further. He was able to treat the leg injury earlier without taking off Lohen's pants due to the fabric having already been ruined in that spot, but the same couldn't be said for the rest of the knight's clothes.
Setting the washcloth aside, Illuga first starts with the boots. He has to stare at it for a good minute or two as he tries to figure out if the part around Lohen's knees is a separate piece or not. Why do they need to be thigh-high boots? They're also unnecessarily tight, making it a struggle to pull off without disturbing the knight too much. He sets the boots next to his own, planning to wash them together later.
He removes the shoulder plate along with the cape next, having to lift up Lohen slightly to do so. There's still many layers left, though. Illuga decides he'll only remove Lohen's jacket, and that should make it easy enough to clean off the rest of the dirt and blood.
But he runs into a problem when he realizes that the jacket seems to be bound with… a corset? Two-thirds of a corset? There's even another corset underneath it too. He was only able to get the jacket half open, now stuck fidgeting with the metal clasps to loosen the waist area. Surely this can't be practical.
Illuga didn't know he could feel this much rage towards a piece of metal.
He's about to get it unclasped, but he's startled by Lohen suddenly shifting. Eyes widening, he looks up at the knight's face. Red eyes stare back at him, half lidded from having just woken.
"Mn…?" Lohen rubs his eyes slightly, "I didn't know you were so forward, Birdie," his lips curl up into a small, amused smirk.
Only then does Illuga realize how he looks, leaning over the knight as he's unclasping his belts.
"No! That's not it!" he retorts quickly, "I'd never take advantage of someone unconscious," he snaps back, a little offended at the notion.
"Aww, disappointing," Lohen pouts.
"Excuse me?"
"Ahh, this pheromone stuff doesn't really work on other omegas, does it," Lohen peers down at Illuga, his gaze almost predatory. Illuga feels himself tense up, hairs standing at the back of his neck.
Lohen suddenly sits up, carelessly swinging his legs down.
"Wait, you shouldn't—" Illuga starts, but Lohen suddenly grabs him and pushes him down onto the couch instead. Illuga is too stunned to react in time, and before he knows it, Lohen has already climbed on top of him.
"How much more forward do I need to be, Birdie?" the knight asks, leaning down close enough for Illuga to feel his breath. "You're cute. Strong too," he smiles coyly.
Illuga feels a gloved hand cup his cheek, gently tilting his head up.
"I want a taste of you."
He could've pushed Lohen off, if he wanted to. But he finds himself unable to move as the knight slots their lips together. Illuga's breath hitches as he's kissed, his hands stiff at his sides as he's clueless on how to react. He flinches when Lohen grinds down against his hips, the stimulation startling him.
Lohen continues to roll his hips against him, softly moaning into the kiss. He's likely sensitive from his heat, making him very reactive. His voice is pretty…
Illuga doesn't know what overcomes him, but he impulsively shoves Lohen off of him. The knight stumbles back into the other half of the couch, face still flushed and lips slightly swollen from the kiss.
"This… this isn't right. You're not thinking straight because of your heat," he reasons, his breaths still coming out heavy as his head is spinning.
Lohen stares at him with a slight frown, his gaze unfocused.
"It's still early in my heat; I'm lucid enough to know what I want," he insists, before crawling back onto the Lightkeeper's lap, "and what I want is this cute Birdie right here."
Illuga tenses up again, turning his head away.
"We… we only met today!" he stammers back, panicking a little at the sudden advances. He doesn't have any experience; most of his days were spent either strategizing against the wild hunt or actively on missions! Relationships, whether it be physical or romantic, were the last thing on his mind.
"And like I said before, I'm an omega!" Illuga reiterates, "I won't be able to…" he flushes as he tries to think of a less vulgar choice of words, "to… satisfy you, okay?"
"Watching the kinds of expressions your pretty face makes would be enough to satisfy me," Lohen replies without missing a beat, straddling Illuga's hips at this point as he cups the Lightkeeper's cheek.
Illuga's face feels so hot that he almost thinks that his own heat might've started.
"If… if you really want someone, then I can go and find an alpha who is willing…?" he offers quietly, unsure of how he should handle this situation. He's chalking up Lohen's advances as being induced from his heat. Thank the Archons he doesn't get this insane during his own heats.
"Don't bother; none of them can handle me anyway. Trust me, I've tried," Lohen scoffs. "They think they're all dominant and powerful or whatever until I give them a real challenge," he says mockingly.
"Then what makes you think I'd be any better?" Illuga asks, a little curious now.
"Mm? Nothing, really. Just thought you were cute," Lohen brushes off the question nonchalantly, "and thought maybe it'd be better if I went for another omega and made them submit to me instead?" his gaze darkens, that crazed look in his eyes returning again. Illuga feels his breath catch in his throat at the sight.
"But I don't mind either way as long as you're willing, Birdie~" Lohen grins, his voice lighthearted.
Illuga presses his lips together, avoiding the knight's gaze.
"I've never done this before…" he mumbles, suddenly feeling very self conscious.
"Me neither!" Lohen replies cheerfully, "kept scaring every alpha off whenever I tried." Illuga isn't sure if he should be more impressed or terrified by that.
"But… you were kissing me right before?" he asks in confusion.
"I've experimented here and there with some stuff~" Lohen shrugs, "don't tell me you've never tried anything during your own heats. You even have a Geo Vision," he points out.
"What does my Vision have to do with anything…?" Illuga makes a concerned expression. Something tells him that maybe he doesn't want to know the answer.
Lohen suddenly deadpans.
"Are you telling me you haven't tried using your Vision on yourself during your heats?" the knight sounds genuinely shocked for once.
"Why would I be…" Illuga starts off, before realizing what Lohen meant. He can feel the blood rise to his face, most likely red enough to match the tips of his hair. "That's indecent! Visions aren't meant to be used for… that!" he barely holds back from shrieking.
"Haha, maybe the Archons should've thought of that before giving me a Cryo Vision," Lohen laughs. "A Geo one would be nicer, though… I've almost given myself frostbite more than once," he comments, his finger tracing the Vision fastened to Illuga's waist.
"Do I need to demonstrate for you, Birdie?" Lohen smiles playfully, spreading his thighs a little wider on Illuga's hips, "you already half undressed me…"
"That was to clean you up!" Illuga tries to defend himself.
"Mm… by undressing and feeling up my body while I'm unconscious and helpless…?" Lohen whispers, starting to undo his own corset as if to emphasize the point. Illuga can't control the way his gaze drops lower, fixed on the slim curve of the Vice Captain's waist. Even if his hands aren't big, he thinks he could wrap them a good way around the other man's waist.
"That's not—" Illuga protests, but he's cut off as Lohen grinds down against him again. The knight moans shamelessly at the stimulation, causing Illuga's face to heat up even further. Though, that wasn't the only place where heat was gathering.
"I'm just gonna keep going, y'know?" Lohen smiles coyly, "I know you can throw me off anytime if you really hated it," there's a knowing look in his eyes, as if he's staring directly into his deepest, darkest desires.
Illuga can't refute him, swallowing as Lohen finishes undoing the buttons and clasps of his corset before carelessly tossing it on the floor.
"It seems this part of you is ready~" Lohen hums, boldly reaching down to feel up the rising tent in Illuga's pants. The Lightkeeper flinches in response, his breath hitching. He can't bring himself to speak as Lohen continues to palm him through the fabric, biting down on his own lips to prevent any more embarrassing sounds from slipping out.
"Ah ah, don't hide your pretty voice from me," the knight chastises, fingers prying at his lips. Illuga could've resisted harder, but he finds himself allowing his lips to part. Two digits press inside, boldly pressing down on his tongue. With his mouth forced open, Illuga can't hide the startled yelp that escapes him.
Lohen's other hand doesn't stop its motions either, but this time Illuga is helpless as soft moans spill out of him.
He also feels a newly developing wetness between his thighs. At this rate, his slick was going to dirty his pants. Although, the front of his pants might already be ruined by now.
Illuga's breaths get heavier as the knight pushes him closer to climax. He's never had someone else touch him like this. But before he could tip over the edge, the hand pulls away. He's embarrassed at the soft whine that gets out of himself.
"Aww, impatient?" Lohen giggles, fingers slipping out of Illuga's lips, "but it'd be such a waste to have you finish now," he smiles, now fiddling with the zipper.
"A-aren't you going too fast?" Illuga stammers out, still feeling breathless. The knight only hums in acknowledgement as he unzip's Illuga's pants.
"Mm? You want me to slow down?" he tilts his head slightly as if considering it, "but I think you seem quite eager down here," he smirks knowingly.
It's mortifying, realizing that he's not quite against what Lohen is doing to him. He shudders as the knight pulls down his waistband, exposing the mess of precum and slick pooled in his underwear. Two fingers trace the tip of his length before trailing down to the base, slowly as if to emphasize their presence. But the touches don't stop there, going even further down to brush over his soaking hole. Illuga isn't able to suppress the breathy moan that slips out of him.
"Such a needy body," Lohen comments, scooping up some of the slick. Illuga flinches, his eyebrows furrowing into a slight glare as he fixes his gaze on the vice captain.
"...Like you're one to talk," he mumbles.
Lohen pauses, his expression going flat as he meets the Lightkeeper's gaze. The unnatural shade of red in his eyes almost appears to glow, similar to what he'd see from the effects of Abyssal corruption. Captivated, he wasn't prepared for the knight to plunge two fingers inside him.
A startled cry is ripped out of him, his body jolting at the sudden intrusion. Lohen is unforgiving as he drags the digits against his inner walls, thoroughly feeling it out as if he's trying to memorize the shape of his most intimate parts.
"But you're the one who is greedily sucking up my fingers, no?" The knight speaks in a chipper tone that sounds far too innocent for what he's doing to him. "Too bad I'm not an alpha that can knot and breed you, huh?" he laughs. It's rather humiliating, but Illuga can't bring himself to reply as Lohen's fingers continue to lazily prod inside him, almost treating him like some sort of fidget.
Far too much time passes for him before he feels Lohen finally pull out. If asked, he'd deny that he whined a little at the loss.
Lohen still has a small smile playing on his face, his fingers dripping with Illuga's clear fluids. His eye fixed on the Lightkeeper, he brings the digits to his own lips before licking it. Illuga's eyes widen.
"What— why are you— don't do that!" he sputters, reflexively reaching out to try and grab the knight's wrist. Lohen smacks him away with his free hand, narrowing his eyes slightly as he fully licks up his slick-covered fingers.
"Hm~ no wonder alphas are so obsessed with this," he comments as he licks his fingers clean, "you taste so sweet, Birdie~"
Illuga feels himself flush, turning away to avoid the knight's gaze.
"So indecent…" he mutters.
"Yet you're still letting me," Lohen replies without missing a beat, climbing over him again. His hand settles between Illuga's thighs again, scooping up more of his slick. "Letting me have all of this sweetness," he grins gleefully.
"But it's unfair, y'know?" he then adds, his slick-covered fingers now settling on Illuga's length. He begins to stroke it, spreading the fluids across it as Illuga squirms beneath him. "Only you got to have something inside you, so I think it's my turn now," he smirks.
The hand leaves Illuga, providing him a moment of respite. But it's clear that won't last long as Lohen unbuttons his own pants. He works surprisingly quickly for how unnecessarily complicated the garment was; Illuga isn't sure where half of the parts even connect.
Impatient, the knight hurriedly removes his pants and tosses it somewhere on the floor. Now Lohen's thighs are fully displayed for Illuga, clear slick dripping between them. The sweet scent of cider hits him strongly again, almost making his mouth water from it. The thought comes as a surprise to him; he's never quite liked the scent of alphas, but something about this sweetness is much more alluring.
Lohen seems to catch onto this, giving him a knowing look.
"Mm? Want a taste too?" he smiles coyly, reaching behind himself. Scooping up some of the slick, he then brings it near Illuga's lips. Illuga tries to turn away, but that doesn't stop the scent from invading his system. Admittedly, he is a little curious about the taste. He doesn't have to wonder for long, as Lohen proceeds to shove his fingers into his mouth again once he doesn't notice any serious signs of resistance.
The taste hits him immediately, sweetness filling his mouth. Although he didn't think he had a big sweet tooth before, Lohen tasted addicting. He moans softly around the digits, unable to help himself as he sucks on them.
"Look at you. Trying to act all proper and reserved, but here you are moaning at the taste of me like a little slut," Lohen comments, lazily thrusting his fingers into the Lightkeeper's mouth. Illuga is embarrassed at how that gets another soft moan out of himself.
"But I'm getting a little impatient," Lohen hums, pulling his fingers out. Illuga chases them for a moment before he stops himself, turning his head away in shame. He should have more self-control than that!
The knight gives him an amused look, before shifting in his spot to lift his hips up. He positions himself over the tip of Illuga's length, teasing him with the way his entrance brushes over it.
"Keep me nice and full, okay?" he smiles.
Lohen sinks down.
He's embarrassingly loud, not showing a hint of restraint as Illuga fills him up. Illuga can't help the shaky breaths that escape him either, the tight warmth wrapping around him unlike anything he's ever felt. He thinks he might finish almost instantly if Lohen starts moving.
The knight gazes down at him hungrily, his hands resting on Illuga's abdomen.
"Since we're both omegas, that means I can have you finish inside me all I want without consequence, right?" He has a sly grin, shifting slightly to make himself comfortable. The movement coaxes another whimper out of Illuga, the stimulation starting to get overwhelming.
"Don't disappoint, Illuga." Lohen purrs his name, voice low.
Slowly lifting his thighs up, he pulls himself off of Illuga until only the tip remains buried. He then drops himself back down, letting the full length slam inside. The rough motion rips a cry out of them both, Lohen's spine curving in a lovely arch while Illuga ends up clawing at the poor couch cushions.
Lohen sets a rather quick pace, eagerly bouncing himself on the Lightkeeper below him. His body is on full display, his thighs plush with a layer of fat like most omegas, yet the ripple of muscle tensing beneath it is visible with each motion. Illuga reflexively ends up thrusting up into the knight as well, unable to restrain himself with the pleasure of the tight heat around him. He earns a shameless yet pretty moan in return, quickly followed by a sharp pain in his abdomen. as Lohen's nails dig into his skin.
"L… Lohen… slow down," he gasps, "you shouldn't… exert yourself too much…" he reminds the knight. Lohen ignores him, continuing to ride him with the same rough pace as he chases his own pleasure. It almost makes him feel like he's being used like a glorified dildo.
Illuga could feel himself rather quickly approaching his limit.
"I'm.. I'm close," he warns, not wanting to catch the knight off guard.
"Good," Lohen replies breathlessly, his voice sounding raw in a way that makes Illuga's heart skip a beat.
That was enough to send him over the edge. Illuga finishes with a cry, his hips stuttering. The intensity of his climax is overwhelming, and he feels tears prick at the corners of his eyes. But Lohen shows no signs of stopping, continuing to ride him out.
"Yes, just like that… Fill me up like you're trying to breed me…" he rambles, almost nonsensically. Illuga barely has a mind to reply.
"I can't do that…" he shakes his head as he squeezes his eyes shut. It really does feel like too much, still sensitive from his climax. He ignores the part of him that finds the thought appealing.
He can only lay there as Lohen keeps up the pace, his unrestrained moans filling the room. He's never been more grateful for his house being on an isolated part of the island. It doesn't take long for the knight to finish as well, his release spilling over Illuga's abdomen and also soiling some of his clothes.
Illuga feels lightheaded, eyes opening a sliver as he dares take a glance at the other omega. He only gets an amused smirk in return.
"Tired already? But I'm not done with you yet," Lohen hums, settling into a slower rocking motion to leisurely stimulate himself even if Illuga couldn't get hard again right away. "Well, I suppose you'd need a moment, because… refractory period, or whatever," he waves a hand dismissively, "mm, but doing nothing during that is boring…" he gazes down at the Lightkeeper with a downright predatory look.
Illuga swallows, feeling the hairs stand on his neck again.
Smirking, Lohen rocks his hips down one final time before lifting himself off of the Lightkeeper. His thighs are a mess, creamy white release dripping down mixed with his sweet-smelling slick. Shifting in his spot, he moves to settle between Illuga's legs this time. He hooks his hands beneath each of the Lightkeeper's knees before raising them, forcing him to expose the rather pitiful state of his thighs covered in his own slick.
"L-Lohen!" Illuga protests, covering his face in shame. But Lohen simply pushes his legs further, essentially folding him in half to put his leaking hole on full display. Lowering his head, he leans down close enough where Illuga can feel his breaths tickle the sensitive skin. A whimper slips out of him, humiliated by how he can feel more slick leaking from him.
"You poor thing. There's no one to breed you, isn't there? So desperate that you're this wet for another omega," Lohen clicks his tongue, a finger scooping up some of the excess fluid between his thighs. Illuga flinches at the touch, his toes curling as he bites down on his lips.
But he feels himself getting folded further as Lohen presses down, reaching out to pry his lips open.
"Didn't I say that I want to hear you?" he warns, his gaze dangerous. Illuga meekly nods, slightly tearing up from the embarrassment of it all.
Lohen smiles.
"Good. I want to hear you sing for me, Birdie."
The knight dips down, and Illuga soon feels something warm prod at his entrance. Is he…?
His thought is cut off as Lohen sucks against the skin, crying out as his back arches off the couch. Without thinking, he ends up grabbing the knight's hair to ground himself. The tug must've been painful, but that only earns him a pleased moan from the other omega as he continues to lap up the slick and tease him.
"Ah…! I c-can't…!" Illuga sobs, never having been stimulated in his manner. It feels dizzyingly good, almost too good to be true.
A finger presses at his entrance, slipping in easily with how much slick he's producing.
"Open up, Birdie. It'd be a shame to waste a meal like this," Lohen whispers. He doesn't know why he complies, but he tries to make himself relax for the knight.
They settle into a comfortable pace, Lohen slowly eating him out as soft moans and whimpers spill from Illuga at the ministrations. Could he even want an alpha after this with how Lohen has ruined him?
But Lohen suddenly pulls away, leaving Illuga feeling cold and empty. He finds himself whining at the loss before he can help it, immediately getting hit with a sense of shame right after.
"Would you look at that?" Lohen purrs softly, a hand reaching out to stroke the other omega's length, "all nice and hard again, just for me."
Illuga almost wants to scream with how the knight keeps pushing him near the edge, but then stops right before the tipping point.
"J… just get on with it," he bites out, but it doesn't come out as harshly as he would've hoped with how raw his voice sounds from his earlier cries.
"Oh, I will. You'll be filling me up until you're able to successfully breed me," Lohen smiles dangerously. Illuga's eyebrows furrow slightly.
"Like I said… I can't do that," he reminds the knight.
"Exactly."
The implication finally registers, and Illuga's eyes widen in mild horror.
"You don't mean—" he starts to speak in disbelief, but is quickly cut off by Lohen climbing onto his hips again. In a smooth motion, he guides himself back onto Illuga's length and sinks down until their hips are flush. Illuga almost chokes at the sudden warmth enveloping him again.
Lohen makes a pleased moan, then gazes down at the Lightkeeper as if he's eyeing a delectable meal.
"You're not going anywhere, Birdie."
Illuga stumbles out of his house, clutching his polearm more as a support than the weapon it's supposed to be.
He's lost count of how many times Lohen has rode him, eaten him out, and even fucked him. Which one it was would depend entirely on what Lohen felt like doing too. He was only able to finally escape the cycle once Lohen fell asleep in the middle of riding him. His legs feel shakier than the most intense workout sessions he's had.
No wonder Lohen had scared off every alpha before! He's well aware that most alphas wouldn't submit to each and every whim of an omega, and they especially wouldn't let an omega fuck them. He's almost certain the knight would've tried that.
"Oh Illuga! There you are."
Snapping his head up, he sees Nikita approach him. Forcing himself to straighten up, he tries his best to look like he did not just get his back blown out several times.
"H-hey dad," he greets awkwardly. hoping that his face wasn't flushed from the embarrassment creeping up on him.
"I heard from Flins that Vice Captain Lohen is in your care," Nikita comments. Illuga chooses not to question how Flins got that information. He wasn't very discreet about it, after all.
"Don't worry, I've already let Grandmaster Varka know. Apparently he had been worried sick after the Vice Captain had gone missing during his pre-heat. I was under the impression that he was worried for Vice Captain Lohen's safety, but then he told me to warn any alpha Ratniki to steer clear of him! Haha, he must be quite a character," Nikita laughs in amusement.
"Haha, yeah," Illuga forces a laugh, glancing away. He sure was quite a character!
"Though, it's fortunate you were able to find him and bring him back safely. Grandmaster Varka did let me know that it's best to have another omega look after him," Nikita adds, "since the opportunity has presented itself, why not take a week off, Illuga?"
"Huh?" the younger Ratniki blinks, "but the scheduled patrols…" he tries to protest, but Nikita holds a hand up.
"The Knights of Favonius have offered to cover them. It's a blessing they're here; makes our workload much more manageable," Nikita explains, "besides, I've been told that covering our patrols would take less manpower than trying to prevent Vice Captain Lohen from running off alone during his heats…" he comments, sounding a little concerned with the information but doesn't press it further.
"But seeing as he's stayed at your place all day today, I'm guessing he's more cooperative with other omegas," Nikita muses.
Illuga doesn't have the heart to correct him, nor does he want to.
"Either way, you're on a one week vacation. Starshyna's orders, alright?" Nikita gives him a good-natured grin. The younger Lightkeeper signs, accepting his fate.
Though, it might not be much of a "vacation" when it's Lohen being involved.
