Conrad hummed approvingly as Xavier settled in his lap and returned the kiss. The Alpha’s hands reached for the others’ hips, slowly grinding their bodies together. Yes, this was the kind of thing he craved. More than fine wine or gourmet food or even beautiful literature. Conrad craved the body of an Alpha, strong and muscular, pressed tight against him. 

His hands slid from Xavier’s hips back into the rear pockets of his trousers, squeezing tightly and pulling the other Alpha even closer. Their lips began a fresh dance, teasing and supple, each kiss threatening to cut off only to ignite a brand new one. It was a marvelous sensation, and Conrad knew he was not the only one already hungry for more.

After a little more teasing, Conrad paused the kiss, leaning his head back just a small bit. “Mmm… let’s take this upstairs, shall we? It would be a shame not to get the chance to fully explore simply due to the limitations of a couch. A king-sized bed is far more fitting, don’t you think?” 

Xavier didn’t even bother trying to hide just how pleasurable he found all of this. Each time their lips parted just a fraction, a soft moan or purr would leave him and he was more ready with each passing moment. If he had been an Omega, he would’ve embarrassed himself with how slick he would’ve been.

Panting lightly when Conrad pulled away, he let out a soft chuckle before he pressed one more quick kiss to the other Alpha’s mouth. Sliding off his lap, he licked his lips and said, “Such a shame. After all, a couch can be fun, but a bed just adds so much more to the equation…”

Spotting the stairs, he walked toward it, slowly peeling off his jacket and hanging it on the banister. Turning back to look at Conrad, he started slowly unbuttoning his shirt. Biting his lip, he slowly made his way up the stairs, hoping Conrad would chase him.

Conrad was enjoying Xavier more and more with each passing moment, particularly with regard to how much the other Alpha seemed to enjoy the game and the chase. Conrad was more than willing to play. What fun was it just skipping to the end anyway? No, he wanted this to last. He wanted to enjoy every second of pleasure he could have with Xavier, whether it was in a carnal sense, or just in sharing company.

As Xavier left his spot on the sofa and began towards the stairs, Conrad watched with an attentive eye and a pleased smile. His little show of slowly stripping his clothes was more than enough to entice Conrad from the sofa to follow after, but he kept his clothes on, focusing more on his pursuit. He slid his fingertips over the fabric as he passed, but left the articles scattered throughout his home where Xavier placed them, liking the idea of getting to watch him walk around nude in order to fetch them later.

By the time he reached his bedroom, Conrad had only just begun to unbutton the very top of his shirt. He had followed Xavier’s trail of clothing, humming teasing words as he chased along, until he arrived at his bedroom door. Judging from the clothes he had passed on the way, he had a good idea of what to expect, but that didn’t make him any less excited.

“No where else to run...” He called teasingly as he swung the bedroom door open.

What's your opinion on your Beta competition for Xavier's ass?

“I don’t consider anyone ‘competition’. I don’t say that out of cockiness, but out of the belief that Xavier is fully capable of choosing for himself who he wants to spend his time with. I don’t have any animosity towards anyone else Xavier might see, nor would I imagine he would have any ill will towards others I might see as well.”

As Xavier listened to the other man’s accomplishments, he felt himself being drawn into the other man’s aura. Here was someone else who took charge and understood the pressures of said position and it was a little intoxicating. He watched as Conrad’s Adam’s apple bobbed as he downed the rest of his wine with a single drink.

It seemed like he wasn’t the only impatient one.

Sliding closer as the other man moved his hand, he was very nearly pressed up against him as he gave the sensitive flesh a light squeeze, almost as if he was attempting to find out exactly what it was Conrad was packing. He knew he couldn’t from a single touch, but he knew before long he’d know exactly what he was dealing with.

The kiss caught him a little off guard, but he moaned against the consuming kiss, maneuvering in such a way that he was on Conrad’s lap. Slowly rocking his hips, he moaned again before grabbing at the Alpha’s hair and giving a light tug. God… this was just what he needed.

Conrad hummed approvingly as Xavier settled in his lap and returned the kiss. The Alpha’s hands reached for the others’ hips, slowly grinding their bodies together. Yes, this was the kind of thing he craved. More than fine wine or gourmet food or even beautiful literature. Conrad craved the body of an Alpha, strong and muscular, pressed tight against him.

There was something to be said about anticipation, but Xavier had never been very good at being patient. He was the type of person that liked to jump right in without any sort of preamble… but maybe that was his problem at times. He jumped in without thought for the consequences and things like that get a man bit.

“I never had to learn… but I’d be willing to try.” The feel of the other man’s hands along his back sent a thrill up his spine, giving him a tiny taste of what was to come that evening. The heat of Conrad’s hand had him wanting to forgo everything, but he could wait. Even if it killed him. He’d never let himself get seduced before and it was high time that he did.

Taking the glass and moving toward the fireplace, he took a seat and took a long sip, enjoying the taste of the wine on his tongue. His lips quirked upward in a small little smile, he said, “Let’s see how long we can wait until we can’t handle it anymore.” Taking another sip from his glass, he said, “I’m a doctor. The Dean of Medicine, actually. I was born in England, but came here after I was bit. I’ve been a wolf longer than I was a man and I’m quite glad it happened. Wouldn’t change a thing.”

Setting his wine aside, he slid his hand along the outside of the other Alpha’s leg with a soft hum spilling from his lips. “I think it’s your turn now.”

Conrad chuckled lowly as Xavier replied, and shook his head only once. “It is not about needing to learn. It never is. It is about wanting to learn. So many things in life can be enjoyed to such fuller capacities if only people would take the time to learn about them. Like wine.” He held up his glass as an example. “Or sex.”

He listened with focused attention as Xavier spoke about his life, getting a mental picture of just what sort of man he was dealing with. A doctor. A man who controlled life and death every single day when he went to work. Conrad would have been willing to wager that would mean Xavier would enjoy having the responsibility taken off of him for a change. And oh, could Conrad ever take charge.

“I am editor-in-chief of the L. Pine Literary Journal. Occasionally I write articles. Mostly on modern civil rights movements and sexual theory.” He tilted his head back, draining the rest of his glass before he set it aside on the little stand next to the sofa.

Conrad reached for Xavier’s hand and moved it, sliding the other Alpha’s palm over his crotch. “You seem like a man who knows what he wants. Men of your profession often do. So tell me, Doctor, are you absolutely certain you wish to wait any longer?” Without giving him time to reply, Conrad’s other hand reached up, fingers wrapping around Xavier’s tie to pull him into a deep, hungry kiss.

Xavier smirked as he felt Conrad’s hand on his thigh. The nice touch of the man’s warm hand was something he’d been missing and it honestly took a lot for him to feel small. He secretly lived for that feeling and would do just about anything to feel it. Probably why he and Dallas had so much fun while he was in rut.

He slid his hand into Conrad’s hair at the base of his scalp and played with what he found there. He enjoyed the texture and in a little bit he might be in a position where he couldn’t touch it; a thought that brought a smile to his face. In some ways, he was happy that he wasn’t an Omega, but it others it would be so much easier.

If he knew Conrad’s thoughts about him disappearing in the morning, he might be the tiniest bit offended. Only a little bit though since he was usually the type to leave first thing in the morning. Not that he didn’t have fun or want a repeat performance, it was that he usually gravitated toward the type of people that didn’t want him there in the morning. Of course, things were changing for Xavier. He was definitely open for something beyond one night and if things happened that way… all the better.

Following behind the other Alpha, he smiled and said, “Of the two, I prefer wine. White, if you happen to have it, but I’m not overly particular. But first, there’s something I’d like to do…” Leaning in, and looking down a touch, he pressed a soft kiss to Conrad’s mouth, pulling away with a soft hum. “Very nice…”

“I have plenty of white wines-” Conrad began, about to list a few from his collection, when he felt Xavier’s mouth press against his own. Well this was intriguing, wasn’t it? Conrad’s arm wrapped around Xavier’s waist, tugging him in closer with a firm grip. “Mm. Impatient, I see.” He chastised lightly, a wry smirk on his lips. 

“But I think you’ll find that just as with wine, yearning only makes the taste that much sweeter in the end.” He let his fingertips linger on the small of Xavier’s back for a moment, letting him know that he absolutely planned on having his way with him tonight, but why rush the evening? Why not spend every second taking their time, unfurling each other bit by bit, before devouring one another whole?

“Sweet or dry?” He asked, letting go of the other Alpha and walking into a temperature-controlled room with wine bottles neatly slotted wall-to-wall. “I have plenty of both... Might I recommend this 1976 Schloss Schonborn Erbacher Marcobrunn?” Conrad pulled a bottle from the shelf with a hum, and walked over to uncork the bottle and pour two glasses.

“It is a light, crisp Reisling from Germany. Rumored to be favored by then-German chancellor, Helmut Schmidt.” Conrad didn’t know or care much about Germany or German history, but he did dearly love his wine, and knowing about its origins. He took a sip and gave a refreshed hum and a nod. “So,” He began, leading towards the cozy fireplace situated in the lounge and taking a seat on the sofa. “Care to tell me about yourself? Or shall we drink our wine and skip to the part where we both start screaming each other’s names?”

For a moment, Xavier knew that he was going to have so much fun with Conrad. There was a sort of polish to the other man that screamed sophistication and Xavier wanted to eat it up in big greedy bites. Especially since this was going to be the time he would get a chance to possibly be knotted.

He felt lust race up his spine at the thought. He’d heard about how good it could feel, but since he’d never had the pleasure of being on the receiving end of one, he could only imagine. Xavier wondered if it would compare to his few days he’d had in the back of The Knot…

Looking at the car, Xavier knew he had a choice to make and it was far easier than it should be. If he went home with Conrad, then he’d have to stay the night. Did he really think he could stay the night with the man and wake up the next morning and be able to look him in the face and possibly want another round?

Fuck yes.

Climbing into the passenger side, he let out a little coo at the heated leather seats and he said, “I need to get me some seats like this.” Leaning over the center console, he nipped at the other Alpha’s earlobe before settling into his seat. “Lead the way…”

Conrad chuckled at the remark about his seats, eyes closing for a moment to hum as Xavier bit his earlobe. “Mm. Down, boy.” He teased, reaching over to squeeze his thigh and leaving his hand there as he pulled out of the parking spot and headed towards his home. 

It was, naturally, in the nicer area of town, where many of the Regenbogen pack lived. A rather large multi-bedroom home, which wasn’t necessary for a single Alpha, but when he bought it, he had hoped to someday fill it with a family. 

Even if he could not bear children, and even if he was mainly attracted to other Alphas who likewise could not get pregnant, there were still options. Surrogacy, adoption. But those were far, far in the future, if they would ever be at all. He certainly wasn’t thinking they would be with Xavier, if only because he presumed the other Alpha would be gone by morning, as they all were.

Conrad’s home was situated on a small hill, his garage attached but down a little slope, so it lead into the basement level rather than the first floor. That was just as well, since the basement was the bar and lounge area, and also where he kept his wine collection. He parked and drew the garage door down with the click of a button, then lead into the lavish lounge. 

“Are you a wine or beer man?”

Yep. He was seduced. If he’d been an Omega he’d find himself thoroughly embarrassed when he stood up, but since he was an Alpha, he managed to dodge that bullet. It had been far far too long where he was the one being actively pursued and he was enjoying himself beyond measure.

Leaning back into Conrad’s space, he stroked a hand over the other man’s knee and slid his hand upward. Looking up at him through his thick lashes, he said, “I guess I’ll have to let you show me just how good that feels. It’s been so long since I’ve had that particular sort of itch scratched, I might just lose my head.”

Standing, he pulled on his coat and moved so he was straddling one of Conrad’s legs. Drawing a finger along the other man’s jawline, he let out a hum before he leaned down and murmured into his ear, “If I weren’t a loud one, I’d try to convince you to find a place in the back stacks and scratch that itch. But since we aren’t…”

He pulled away with a smirk and started moving toward the door, looking over his shoulder to see if Conrad was following him.

Conrad was not ruffled by the hand on his knee. He wasn’t some young, over-eager Alpha anymore. He had plenty of experience by now, with a variety of lovers over his years. True, many of them weren’t necessarily his preferred gender, but that didn’t make the experience any less enjoyable or valuable. But he knew well how to keep his head, so to speak, at least while in public.

He didn’t move at all when Xavier approached, didn’t lean into or away from him when his space was invaded. The only difference about him was that his smooth smile turned to something of a smirk, with just a hint of devious excitement turning up the corners of his lips. 

After a moment, he too stood, sliding into his jacket with a hum as he buttoned the wool coat and walked casually after the other Alpha out into the snowy sidewalk. “I’m parked there.” He nodded towards the sleek black Lexus a few spaces down. 

“I invited you, so the least I can do is drive.” He added, walking towards his car as he pulled his keys from his pocket. At the push of a button, the engine was running, the heat was on, and the leather seats were warming up before he even reached the driver’s side door and slid inside.

At the other man’s ‘confession’ Xavier set his cup down and physically scooted his chair closer. “No, not a deal-breaker. The opposite, actually.” It had been nearly 23 years since he’d been with another Alpha and it was high time he ended the drought.

Licking his lips, he lowered his voice to almost a whisper as he said, “I haven’t been with an Alpha since I was turned. There was a Beta who came really close to replicating that feeling, and he was honestly the best I’ve had in all that time. It’s not very often that someone is willing to top an Alpha…”

Leaning back again, he picked his cup back up and slowly drained it, licking a stray droplet from the corner of his mouth as he hungrily eyed the man in front of him. There was something just so… invigorating about the possibility of getting a good night out of all of this that he had a feeling he really wasn’t going to need the coffee after this.

Conrad noticed the move closer and his subtle grin became that much firmer on his lips. Opposite of a deal-breaker, hmm? Could it be that he had finally happened upon someone like himself? An Alpha who preferred the company of other Alphas? What a treat! It almost made him remiss that it would likely only be for a night. 

He couldn’t help but to nibble on his bottom lip as Xavier spoke. Hadn’t been with an Alpha since he had been turned? Well, his parents would throw a fit over not being born a wolf, but they had passed away years ago, and now Conrad dated and slept with whomever he pleased. And tonight, that meant Xavier.

“Oh, there really is no comparison. Not if you ask me.” Conrad shook his head slightly. “Don’t get me wrong. Betas and Omegas can make fantastic lovers.” He had, in fact, had the pleasure of being with both in the past, and did not regret any of the interactions. “But it is indescribably satisfying when you have a particular craving for a specific something and finally have that itch scratched.”

"Oh you're double gay too. I was kinda starting to think I'd be the only one in town."

Double gay, huh? Is that what the kids are calling it nowadays? Well, I am an Alpha who primarily is attracted to other Alphas so… ahh, yes. Double gay. It does make sense. But yes, we’re rare commodities, aren’t we? Nice to meet you.

Uh but my name is Austin, it’s good to meet you too. 

Yes, well. I didn’t make my preferences known until much later in life. Had other things to worry about. But you’re fortunate to know yourself so well at such a young age. I don’t imagine it’s very easy for you, either.

I’ve just always been this way, so much so that my family was certain I was a Beta until my first…uh you know…heat.

It’s not so bad in this town actually, other than a few staunch traditionalists I’ve never gotten much static.

Sorry I didn’t catch your name…

Yeah, unfortunately there are always traditionalists around. For now. Maybe someday we’ll be rid of them.

Oh, how rude of me! My mistake, sorry about that. I’m Conrad. Conrad Montgomery.

Are Ben and his partner together? I dont' think biting happened on both sides so I think that means he's game!!

Is he now? I wasn’t aware of that. I’ve been buried in work lately and haven’t kept up to date on all of the intricate happenings in town. That’s… very interesting, though.

I’m sure the Anon means well, but I’m very spoken for.

I bit him. So… yeah…

Ah, in that case, many happy returns on your mating, Chief Foster! I’m sure you’ll be very happy together.

This was the sort of seduction Xavier was used to. Two mutual parties laying it all out on the table as to what the other wanted. Of course, most of his previous partners had lacked an essential spark that had had him wanting a second round out of them. At the same time, they weren’t as intelligent as Conrad seemed to be.

“Is that so? Think you’re going to be able to go long enough to work off a single cup? Then I won’t need that second cup. If it’s good enough for that, then all I’ll need is you…”

Continuing to slowly sip from his cup, he smiled over the brim and let his gaze flicker over the other man. It had been a moment before his gaze moved back up to his eyes and he said, “You know… there’s something about me you should probably know. I don’t know if it’ll make any difference, but I am an Alpha. Does that happen to be a deal breaker for you?”

Conrad chuckled lowly, nodding his head only once. “Yes. I know we will be able to.” He had no question as to his own abilities, and he was fairly sure by looking at Xavier that he would share in that enthusiasm. He looked the energetic sort. Who else ordered coffee after eight in the evening? 

The mention of a ‘deal-breaker’ quirked Conrad’s interest, only to have him grinning. He should have known. His taste always did run this way, and while it wasn’t the only thing he searched for in someone, it more often than not tended to be what he gravitated towards, purely by his natural attraction.

“Not at all.” He hummed in reply. “Only if it is a deal-breaker for  you that I am an Alpha as well.” Conrad knew all too well that he was one of very few that preferred it as such, but he was hoping, considering how his night had began, that this devilishly handsome Xavier would indulge him, even if just for an evening.

[alphaeditorconrad]

If any Alpha was available, who would you want to be with?

Based on just looks? Jason is exactly my type. Rugged, muscular, a real guy’s kind of guy. But I heard about the mating and all that, and I don’t want to break up any families. 

I just met Xavier and he’s… mmm. I don’t know much about him yet, but I’ve got a feeling we’re about to get to know each other in a primal sense. He’s damn handsome. Manicured, perfectly kept, tailored suits. Sexy. 

Ben’s good-looking too. Chief of police? Hell yes. I have a feeling he’d be more of a Mr. Right Now though. And isn’t he with his old partner again? Like I said, don’t want to split anyone up.

Can’t stand elitists of any sort, so Vin and Anton are no-goes. Though… I mean if it was a one-night stand and I never had to see them again… Would I ever teach them a thing or two about how you’re supposed to treat a bottom.

That young doctor-to-be is good-looking too, but he’s attached to a lot of drama. I like my drama typed out, single spaced, in 12 point font, but not in my life. Pass. Plus, doctors are probably one of the only professions who work as much as, if not more than editors. 

As far as Sebastian, see all the other things I’ve said about not interfering with men who are already connected. Plus, I enjoy polite company. He seems too crass for my taste. I’ll drop a curse now and again, and naturally in the bedroom, but I think we would clash.

Then there are Lee and Cole, who I don’t know much about, since I don’t really frequent their sort of establishments. Nothing against them, but they have never been my particular sort of place. I do like older men, but I doubt we’d see eye-to-eye on some things that are very important to me.

Ah, I said based on looks alone, didn’t I? Oh well.

Drama has a name. Nice to see another elite dick of my pack to come squirming out of the wood work. 

My apologies for any offense I’ve caused. I do hope you can believe me when I say that I am truly not an elitist. I believe fully in equal rights for all genders, including Omegas. The ‘drama’ I was referring to was drug use. I have no problems with you as a person, nor your profession. In fact, I have immense respect for how difficult your work is. I know those words might not mean much from a man like me, but they are the truth nonetheless.

[alphaeditorconrad]

What are your hobbies?

Check out these sweet dance moves and you tell me! No, but in all honesty, I’m a terrible dancer, though I do enjoy the occasional jiggle of hips and lip-syncing to the radio when I get out of the shower. 

Sincerely though, I spend a lot of my off-time reading, which some people might say is essentially work too. But I began my editing career because of my love for literature, not just because it was conveniently in my path. 

In any case, when I’m not working or reading, I enjoy hiking when the weather is nice, appreciating art and wine and fine food. I do love to ski in the winter, and take the boat out when I need a break from it all. I don’t care much for fishing itself, but I dearly adore sailing. I would love someone to take with me, to weigh anchor in the middle of the lake during summer and lay around drinking wine and sunning ourselves all day.

[alphaeditorconrad]

Are Ben and his partner together? I dont' think biting happened on both sides so I think that means he's game!!

Is he now? I wasn’t aware of that. I’ve been buried in work lately and haven’t kept up to date on all of the intricate happenings in town. That’s... very interesting, though. 

[alphaeditorconrad]

Drama? You mean Tucker Black. Well maybe you should show that doctor-to-be what it's like to be with someone who isn't terrible?

I didn’t want to be rude and address that highly personal, sensitive situation. I think Tucker has been called out enough as troublesome by other people in town, and I don’t want to be another to throw stones at him. But also, I simply can’t involve myself with someone who is a drug user. And from what I understand, the two live together? And are ‘married’ in some capacity? Like I said, I prefer my drama in print. Will does seem like a wonderful Alpha though... I wouldn’t turn down a date with him.

[alphaeditorconrad]

Are you only attracted to Alphas or do any lovely Beta's have a chance?

I’m mostly attracted to other Alphas, but I don’t believe in being so exclusive as to ignore attraction to a person based on their gender. If I met an Omega or Beta and felt attraction and we clicked mentally and physically, I wouldn’t ignore it. But I do find that most commonly, I have those sorts of connections with other Alphas. That isn’t to say I wouldn’t be open to meeting others.
