Lucas was all smiles when he walked out of the glass doors of Blue Haven Records. He grabbed the first cab he could get and quickly sent Kenji a text with the words 'I'm on my way!′
The platinum blond man was happy because his big brother had asked him for forgiveness and gave him a big hug. Today Lucas met the brother he recognized. The stressed, cold Dorian was gone, and the smiling, kind big brother was back to his usual self. Lucas had been so nervous when he walked into Dorian's office, imagining that he would get rejected. And if that happened, Lucas was sure that it would be the end of him. But after just a few steps in the office, his brother walked up to him and pulled him into a tight embrace.
"I'm so sorry," the tall man said and squeezed his smaller brother so hard that Lucas almost lost his breath.
"I've been acting like a real twat while you did nothing wrong. I hope you can forgive me."
Lucas hadn't hesitated, he had put his arms around his big brother the moment Dorian stopped talking.
"Of course, I forgive you! I was so scared that you hated me and that you wanted nothing to do with me."
That made Dorian hold Lucas even harder, and he shook his head.
"I could never hate you. You're my precious family, and I love you."
Lucas managed not to cry, but it was hard. Dorian said the words he wanted to hear, and all the anxiety just vanished.
They casually talked for a little while. Lucas told Dorian about Kenji and delighted that his little brother finally seemed to have met someone decent. Dorian suggested that Lucas would bring Kenji to the family dinner this weekend. And after Lucas asked then, Dorian had to get to the press conference in a nearby hotel. And it was with excited steps Lucas left the office.
All he could think of was that he needed to see Kenji.
The cab stopped outside Luca's favorite café and picked up Kenji, and just seeing him made Lucas hot. They hugged and exchanged a quick peck on the lips. That was all they could do. Any more than that, then the two men would strip each other naked right there in the car.
"You're beautiful," Lucas said, and he meant it.
Kenji was wearing casual clothes, but Lucas thought he was sexy as hell and couldn't wait until they got home so he could rip them off him.
And so they did. The two men barely managed to get into the apartment before they were naked. Lucas carried Kenji to the bed, and there they fucked so intense that they fell asleep in each other's arms right after climaxing together.
Lucas woke up, and Kenji was still asleep next to him. Just the mere sight of the beautiful man with the slightly tanned skin made Lucas' heart race, and he felt himself get excited again. Lucas couldn't believe how fortunate he'd been by meeting Kenji. For just when it felt like everything was going to hell again, he met this fantastic man. Lucas loved talking to Kenji. They had the same interests. They could talk about anything, and their conversations never went dull. Kenji was a bright and funny guy, and their sexual compatibility was no joke. Lucas had never experienced such incredible sex before.
As Lucas laid gazing at the man beside him, Kenji's eyelashes started to flutter, and slowly he opened his eyes.
When the younger man saw Lucas, he smiled. It was a sweet smile, a smile filled with love, and it made Lucas blush. Kenji saw that, and he swiftly placed a light kiss on Lucas' pink lips.
"What are you thinking about?" he asked in a low voice.
"My brother invited you to our family dinner on Saturday."
Lucas saw that Kenji was surprised, but he quickly nodded.
"Absolutely. If you want to."
"Of course, I want you to come. You are my boyfriend, and I want you to meet my family."
Kenji smiled and snuggled close to Lucas.
"I would love to."
They kissed for a while until Lucas went to the kitchen to get water. And when he was away, Kenji started smiling. First, it was that cute, little smile, and then it grew wider until he started laughing.
'Such a fucking idiot,' Kenji thought to himself while he laughed.
And he was delighted. Because after all these years, he would finally meet Shiro. His beloved.
***********************
While Lucas had his fun with his boyfriend, a nervous Dorian stood in a hotel near the office stood a nervous Dorian. He never thought he would be anxious like this, but damn, he was almost shaking. Dorian had never held a press conference before, there never been any real need for it. Because even though his family was quite well-known, there wasn't any public interest in them. Not until now. And most of the gathered journalists were there because of Shiro. Even a Japanese crew attending, but how they got there in one day was beyond Dorian.
While Dorian was having second thought about the whole thing, Finian and Shiro were as cool as ever.
For some reason, Finian had been in an excellent mood when he woke up, humming happily for himself while getting dressed. Dorian had seen a hint of jealousy in Shiro's eyes, and one part of him got stressed about it, but another part was a little happy.
Shiro was used to being in front of cameras and talking with a journalist, so he was calmed and smiled, looking stunning. Dorian wished he could let Shiro do the talking. But as the CEO and the one supposedly being the "bad guy," Lucas felt needed to do the talking. He couldn't hide from this. But Dorian wanted to hideaway.
So there, in the rented conference room, sat Dorian with Shiro by his left side and Finian next to Shiro. That was a strategic move, to not put Dorian in the middle, or Finian.
Next to Dorian stood Elliot and Yeo-reum. The woman had just greeted the members of the press welcome and introduced Dorian as the next speaker. The almost two-meter tall alpha took a deep breath and started talking.
"A lot of rumors are currently being spread regarding not only about myself, Finian and Shiro, but also our children. With this statement, we want to clear any misunderstanding there might be regarding our family. Finian and I have been married for fourteen years, and together we are proud parents of our two children. However, as many of you know, a few weeks ago, I found my fated pair. This was fully by chance and not, as several rumors claims, something I actively searched for. We happened to meet at a night club in Soho. This was a shock not only for Shiro and me but, of course, for Finian and our families as well. It hasn't been easy, but we are now in a situation where we all feel comfortable. But these nasty rumors a nuisance towards our family, and we want them to stop. It's nothing but lies. Lies that are hurting our family and all we're asking are to be left alone to be a family in peace. Thank you."
As soon as Dorian finished talking, the reporters started yelling questions, and Yeo-reum hep up her hands.
"We will not answer any questions for now, but we will accept requests for interviews if you contact the record label. Thank you for your time."
And with that, Dorian, Finian, and Shiro stood up. But some of the journalists still shouted questions, and one was a little louder than the others.
"Finian, according to a source, in 2003, you had an abortion after you were raped during a festival. How has that incident affected your role as a parent?"
Silence. An almost deafening silence spread throughout the room, and every gaze turned first to the reporter and then to Finian. The red-head alpha turned visibly pale, and he started trembling.
Finian looked at Dorian, his eyes big in fear and pain.
"Dorian, I'm.." But Finian's small voice disappeared in the raging roar from Dorian.
"What did you just say?" Dorian's voice blasted like thunder, and with it came the pheromones.
"What the fuck did you just say to him?"
The reporters couldn't move. They were all paralyzed with fear. It was as if the massive amount of pheromones was pressing down on them, pinning them to their seats. For many of the betas in the room, this was the first time they ever felt an Alpha's pheromones, and it was overwhelming. This was the first time they felt truly dominated. And it was a natural response, something from deep inside them, and none of them could do anything about it. They were in the presence of a furious Prime-Alpha, and all they could do was to shiver in fear.
The only one in the room that wasn't affected was Finian. Even Shiro trembled, his mate's pheromones affected him the most. Still, omega stared at Dorian like he was the most delicious thing Shiro had ever seen.
Dorian took a step towards the reporter who squealed but couldn't move.
"You dare talk to my husband like that! Who do you think you are?"
Dorian walked up to the trembling man, who seemed to shrink and wanted to sink into the floor.
"If you ever come near any of my family again, I will see that you are punished. Do you understand?"
The reporter didn't move, and Dorian glared with his burning yellow eyes. He was at least forty centimeters taller than the other man and twice as big.
"I asked you! Do you understand?"
The reporter finally nodded, but he was still staring at his feet.
Dorian leaned down, leaned his head to the side, and growled.
"Leave!"
And the reporter didn't hesitate. The command from the Prime-Alpha made the man run, stumbling on his feet out through the door.
Dorian watched in silence as the man left, and when he was gone, he looked around at the room.
"If anyone continues to spread rumors about my family, we will sue you. Thank you for your time."
Dorian walked back, took Shiros hand with his right, and Finians with his left. And with his two mates, Dorian left the room.
As soon as they left the room, the dominating pheromones lessened, and everybody could relax. Most of them were both in shock and in awe over the force Dorian possessed. And the record label received many requests for interviews that day. Dorian became even more famous than before, but the rumors ended. Nobody dared to mess with the Prime Alpha of the McCallister family.
In a room at the hotel, a tired Dorian sat on the bed. It didn't take long until Shiro crawled up on his lap, which surprised Dorian. The omega acted like a cat, stroking himself against Dorian, almost purring.
"What's up with him?" Dorian blurted out, confused.
"It's your pheromones. Others are scared of you, but Shiro's probably aroused by it," Finian answered in a low voice and sat down on a chair.
Finian was tired, and he wanted to cry. But he couldn't. He thought he didn't deserve to cry for the things he'd done.
"I'm sorry, Dorian."
Finian's voice was weak, and he couldn't look at Dorian. He was filled with such regret. It felt like a hole had opened deep inside him, and it hurt.
"I already knew."
Finian flinched and finally lifted his gaze, his eyes wide in surprise.
"You did?"
Dorian nodded and took a deep breath. He looked at Finian with a sorrowful expression on his face.
"I overheard you talking to your sister, but I never knew what to say. I'm sorry."
"Why do you say that you're sorry? It was me that had an abortion without ever telling you. I should have talked to you, but I couldn't. I was such a mess, and so terrified. I don't know who the father was, and even if it could have been you, I didn't want to take the chance. The thought of having that bastards offspring in me made me feel so disgusting. I hated it so much."
Dorian tried to stand up, but with Shiro in his lap, he couldn't move. And the omega, still affected by the lingering pheromones, didn't budge.
Dorian looked helplessly at Finian and stretched out his arms, showing his husband that he wanted him there. Finian obliged, but it was with heavy steps that he walked to the bed and sat down beside the blond man.
As Dorian put his arm around Finian, he pulled him closer and kissed his cheek.
"I hate the thought of you going through that alone. I wish I could have been there for you."
Finian leaned his head against Dorian's and glanced at him, trying to ignore the purring omega in his husband's lap.
"You're not angry?"
"Of course not my love," Dorian said and looked surprised. "Well, I'm angry at that fucking reporter, but not at you. You did what was right for you. But promise me that you will always involve me in important matters. I want to be there for you."
Finian surprised Dorian with a kiss on his lips. Both the touch from Finian's soft lips and Shiro on his lap made Dorian shiver with excitement. Finian chuckled. He immediately recognized the look on Dorian's face.
"Horny?"
"Can you blame me?" Dorian said with a smirk and shrugged his shoulders.
There he sat on a bed with his two mates, the two people he cherised the most. One was grinding his body against Dorian, the other kissing him. Of course, the man was aroused.
Finian smiled and kissed Dorian again before he was about to get up from the bed. But Dorian grabbed his hand and looked confused at his husband.
"Where are you going?"
"You need to take care of Shiro."
"But I don't want you to leave," Dorian said in such a meek voice that it startled Finian.
He had never heard such desperation in Dorian's voice before. It was if he was afraid that Finian would leave him, and the thought hurt too much for Dorian to bare.
Finian had, just like Dorian, never been particularly interested in having a threesome, but when he saw how needy Dorian was, he couldn't resist. He wanted Dorian so much he didn't care anymore.
The red-haired man kissed Dorian passionately, completely taking the breath away from the blond man. When Finian released Dorian's lips, Dorian panted, and his gaze was feverish.
Finian was as hard as Dorian, and it ached. Finian leaned towards Shiro and looked into the omega's eyes.
"Shiro, do you want Dorian right now?"
Due to his pregnancy, Finian could barely feel Dorian's scent. Still, for Shiro, the heated pheromones that filled the room were overwhelming, and the omega nodded eagerly. Shiro was in heat, triggered by Dorian, and he wanted nothing more than to be connected to his mate.
Seeing the eagerness in Shiro, made Finian glance at Dorian.
"Your fated pair wants you. You better help him."
"But what about you?" Dorian asked, his voice hoarse.
Finian didn't say anything, he just stood up, pulled down his pants, and held his hard cock. Dorian didn't wait. He knew exactly hat Finian wanted. So he quickly unbuttoned his pants, pulled them down a bit, did the same for the purring Shiro. As Shiro climbed on top of Dorian's throbbing cock, Dorian took Finian's in his mouth.
Dorian was in heaven. He had Shiro straddling him, rocking up and down while Finian thrust his big cock in his mouth. Finian's and Shiro's sweet moans filled the room, and Dorian felt so happy he almost cried. His two beloved felt good because of him. And when the three men came just seconds from each other, they collapsed on the bed. The first one to start laughing was Finian, then Dorian and Shiro soon followed. The room was filled with heartfelt laughter instead of sexy moans. An almost beaming Dorian kissed Shiro's forehead, then placed a kiss on Finian cheek.
"I'm without a doubt the happiest person in the world," Dorian said, and the smile on his face showed that he meant it.
To everyone's surprise, Finian started crying, but it was tears of joy, and the red-haired alpha was smiling brightly. He clung to Dorian, who hugged both him and Shiro close. Finian leaned his head against Dorian's shoulder and closed his eyes.
"Me too, Dorian," Finian whispered, and he sincerely was.
Relief washed over him the moment Dorian said that he was happy. It was as if weeks of anguish just melted away with those words. Finian couldn't stop crying as he genuinely relaxed for the first time since that night when Elliot came home with a knocked out Dorian. Finian did his best to keep it together, but it has been so hard. But now it finally felt like they had the worst behind them.
Shiro was watching Finian from his place beside Dorian, and he had a little satisfied smile on his lips. He was free from the pheromones. Even though Shiro was slightly ashamed that he lost control over himself, the omega was happy. He was glad over what Dorian had said, and to see that smile on Finian's tearstained face made his heart feel warm. Shiro didn't fully understand what the rude reporter had talked about. Pheromones had clouded his mind so he couldn't remember what Dorian and Finian spoke about. Still, Shiro figured that someone would indeed explain everything to him when the time was right.
And even if Shiro didn't say anything, he knew that he was just as happy as the two men beside him. Perhaps even more.
