When Roman saw the horrifying sight of his mate like this he froze. He was still an quiet for only a moment before hell broke loose. He first rush rushed to the omega’s side, panicking and shaking uncontrollably.

Dee heard choas happening upstairs, but he didn't know what was happening. He swore he caught whiff of his pack, but he didn't even know if it was really them or not. He has been thinking he smelling them, only to snap to attention and find that he's being strangled by an alpha here. So he didn't know if he could trust that. So he waited in his cell in the basement. He was tied up with rope, keeping his hands to his hips. And was muzzled tightly so he couldn't speak at all. He even had thick headphones on, they had tried to take away all of his sensations, only relaying on his nose to get around. And needless to say he was bumping into everything. So when Roman rushed over to his side he didn't even know that was him at first, and he was cowering, shaking his head and releasing fear scents. Until he realized that scent... His mate?! Tears willed up in his eyes and he practically dove into his chest, he was completely naked and it helped to show just how severe his scars were. And the fact that they had even cut off his dick. All there was in replacement of his dick were stitches. And he smelled like he had been knotted by one of the pack here. But he was sobbing in relief, hiccuping and crying loudly. He's so relieved that his mate is here, hes finally here.

Roman picks him up carefully, tears flowing down his face as he does so. “I’m so sorry I couldn’t get here sooner.” Roman quickly begins to get Dee out of this terrible face.

A lone omega runs down an alleyway, he didn't have a single idea where he was going or where he even was. His only thought was to run. He only wore a thong and a collar with a leash that was dragging behind him, clearly a sign that he was a slave to some alpha. His hands were tied and he had a muzzle strapped to his mouth. And was covered in scars from head to toe, half of his body being burned by flames. And he was in heat, heavily in heat.

Logan, a beta, had been walking to a bookstore when he smelt the lone omega in heat and could tell something was wrong. Logan quickly figured out where the scent was coming from and ran into the alleyway to help.

The smell of fear was coming off in waves from this one omega, plus the smell of heat. It was strong enough to attract anybody nearby really. But he didn't know that. He was too terrified to even think properly. The only thoughts going through his mind was to run away. Run before his masters catch him. When he saw somebody running towards him he froze, trying to step back only to fall on the pavement. He whimpered and whined, sobbing loudly and pleading. His arms and hands over his face to protect himself and his entire body trembling and violently shaking. He wasn't even sure if he was breathing or not, judging by how badly his chest was caving in it definitely didn't feel like he was. He could smell the distant scent that came from him but he couldn't concentrate long enough to figure out that he was a beta.

Logan rushed to his side. “Hey, calm down. I’m not going to hurt you. Can you tell me what is going on?”

He gave a yelp of surprise when he rushed over to him, he sobbed shutting his eyes in fear. Then he shook his head, tears streaming down his eyes and he looked so scared and terrified. Just then he heard what sounded like footsteps coming down the other side of the alleyway and he gave a muffled scream, he could recongize that scent anywhere. He was frozen in fear though, his eyes even wider. He's going to die... He's going to die... They're gonna kill him. It's all over.

Logan gets the sense that whoever was making those footsteps isn’t good. “I’m going to pick you up, sorry if it hurts.” Logan says before picking the omega up, using adrenaline he starts to run out of the alleyway.

He makes a tiny noise before he's suddenly picked up. He didn't even hear what Logan had just said so when he's suddenly picked up he nearly jumped so badly he just about fell from his arms. Luckily he didn't and he was in shock to find him running away. What...is he doing?! He looked behind to see that luckily they got out of there just in time before the alphas had gotten to where they just were. His gaze landed on Logan and he whimpered behind the muzzle, holding his hands close to his chest. He was still scared, this beta could be taking him to a group of alphas for all he knows.

Logan keeps running, heading back quickly to his apartment. He hopes that his memory of one his roommate who happens to be an alpha saying he was heading out is correct. As much as he trusts him he thinks the omega isn’t going to be comfortable with an alpha nearby currently.

The omega was crying the entire way, scared of what was to happen and become of him. What if Master's follow him? What if he's heading to New Master's? What if he's going to hurt him himself? There's so many what ifs and he's so terrified right now. He didn't stop crying even when Logan got into the apartment and had closed the door. By then his hands were raised to protect himself while he was crying. His cheeks covered in tears and his eyes red and puffy.

Logan quickly locks the door before placing him on the couch gently. Logan carefully removes the muzzle, speaking softly to him. “Hey, you’re safe. I promise that no one is going to hurt you. I’m trying to help you.

He gave a cry when he was placed on the couch before stopping and looking down, not harmful? Not harmful. Okay. Then he flinched and whimpered, crying out when he moved to touch him. Only to realize he's taking off the muzzle. There were obvious signs that it's been on his mouth for a very long time, his peeling and blistering skin is anything to go by. When he opened his mouth the other could see that his tongue is completely missing. He hiccuped and curled up against the couch, shaking his head. "M-Master... Master... Master... He... You... I... I can't... No... I..." He stuttered over himself, his breathing quick. He was obviously too scared to even make much sense. The thong basically did nothing and he was making a small mess on the couch by his slick.

Logan quickly grabs some of his own spare clothes. “I need you to try to calm down a bit. I have some spare clothes you can borrow.” Logan is worried about this omega. From a past relationship he knew a small bit about how the omega is most likely feeling right now.

"N-No... No... Need... Need Master's...permission... I can't... Get in trouble... Trouble bad.... Trouble... I... I can't get... No.... No clothes..." He frantically shakes his head, looking at the clothes as if it'll burn him, which might not be far from the truth judging by how many scars he has. He tries to take deep breaths in, but it was so hard when his panicked thoughts are going so crazy right now. "I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." He whispered, shaking. "Gonna... Gonna...sell me? Take...to Master's or... Or... I..."

“It’s okay. I’m got going to any of that. I’m to call an ambulance and police, they are trained for situations like this and it’s going to help much better than I can on my own.”

"I... But... What.... They'll..." He takes another shaky breath to try and concentrate on talking. "Master's... Master's...in... Master's are in...work for police... Alphas work...for police... Black uniforms... Black uniforms with handcuffs... I think that's police... Will get me... They will get me." He says shakily, trying to calm down the best he could. Luckily it was getting easier and easier as he looked around the place and as time went by, he thought if he was gonna sell him he would be calling around already.

Logan is very worried by this. “Okay, let me think for a second.” Logan begins to think about what he should do, assessing every reasonable option.

He shakily nods, "A-Are you... Are you...my Master now...?" He asked hesitantly, then shut up so he could think. He was quiet, staring at him then everything around them taking the place in. He didn't understand what most of these things do, in all honesty... Even though he was curious he stayed perfectly still, not wanting to move unless told to. He didn't want to test the patience of this beta.

"Hello?" A voice entered the room, the front door being opened and the sound of keys being jangled could be heard.

Logan immediately chokes on his own tongue when he says that. “N-No. uh, um.” Logan is seriously caught off guard by that question.

"I-I... Huh...? But you...saved me...? You own...me now? I'm... I'm confused?" He stared at him, not understanding why he denied it. Either he is his new master or...he's being sold off... But he said no to being sold off so he's...really confused right now. Just as he was starting to finally calm down the door had opened and he jumped up. And his eyes instantly widened in fear when he smelt the alpha smell.

"Lo? You're back already too? Turns out that theater place was a ditch, such a shame too." Roman walked over to the living room and he froze at the scene before him. He was about ready to take off his bag when he spotted the nearly naked man on their couch. And he was definitely in heat. His nose winkled and he glanced at Logan. "Uh... Lo... Care to explain why a nearly naked omega that in heavy heat is currently in our apartment? Did you order a prostitute or something?"

“On my way to the bookstore I found this omega running from someone who he calls ‘Master’ who is most likely someone who has abused him and might kill him. So, no I have not ordered a prostitute.”

"Ah... Well, that's a shame. Cause my hormones are going bonkers right now. He..." Roman took a moment to process everything he just said. He glanced back at Logan, "Is it like... with you?" He asked, knowing about Logan's past. He was the one who helped him break from his alphas control after all.

The omega was dead quiet, he stared at Roman in pure horror. Is this who he's going to give him too?! He couldn't even ask any questions, all that came out was little peeps and hiccups.

“Yes, it is like that.” Logan can sense that the omega is more than terrified so he turns. “He’s not going to hurt you. I’m not selling you or letting you get hurt. He is a great friend of mine, I know him well and he is isn’t going to take advantage of you, I promise.

"Oh... Gotcha..." Roman takes a deep breath, trying to remember what he did with logan back then. Be a rock and ground him. Comfort him... Okay. Very slowly he kneeled down so he wasn't towering over the quivering omega. And he forced himself to push back his instincts on breeding this Omega. He clearly doesn't need that. And very slowly he scoots a bit forward so he was kneeling before the omega. And he let out calming scents. "I promise i won't ever hurt you, alright? I promise on my life. Can you take a breath for me? Focus on my voice and my scent. Sh... Sh... Breathe..."

The omega didn't know what was happening. But when Logan turned to him he looked over. Only to swallow and let out a few more peeps, but he seemed a bit calmer at that. Not take advantage... He jumped when Roman moved, only to blink when he kneeled down to the ground. He didn't know how to even respond to this. He stared at Roman then at Logan, being completely baffled and confused. "W-What...? But I...need a Master.... Need... I can't... Please? Can I have a Master? Please? I can't... I don't know...what to do with myself... Please..." He begged to them, clearly conditioned to needing a Master for everything.

Logan sighs softly, knowing this mindset more than he would like to. “You don’t need a Master, I promise. What they have done to you is wrong and what they have told you about needing a Master is false.” Logan speaks calmly and softly. Letting out calming scents like Roman but they are definitely not as strong as Roman’s due to some events from his past.

"I... I... N-No... I... I need..." He stuttered, shaking his head with tears in his eyes. He sounded devasted, like somebody told him his dog just died. He put his head in his hands and sobbed loudly once more, crying as if he lost something precious to him. "I... No... Not wrong... Not bad... No... They weren't... N-No... Please... Please..." He sobbed, "I need... A master.... Please!!" He begged, he looked around and noticed the wall behind him. He stood up and started slamming his head against the wall with enough force to make the wall shake. "I'm bad! Bad! Bad!!"

"I'll be your Master!" Roman blurted out, he didn't want to, obviously, but he didn't know how else to calm him down.

Logan quickly puts his arm in between him and the wall. “Calm down. You aren’t bad. If you need a Master, I will be your Master.” Logan says trying to keep his voice steady and calm.

"Are you sure, Logan? He... He's worse off then you were... And..." Roman said nervously, whispering to him. He isn't certain about Logan taking care of him, it might trigger some memories...

He immediately stops when he puts an arm between him. Then freezes when they both shouted that they were gonna be his master's. He looked back and stared between them. Then he took a shaky breath and nods, he stands perfectly still as some blood trickle down his head. "Okay... Master's... I'm... I'm sorry... I'm very sorry..." He sat back down, his head down and he immediately calmed down.

“I... I am not completely sure...” Logan whispers back, admitting he isn’t completely comfortable with taking care of him as he already close to an ‘episode’. Logan quickly gets a first aid kit before starting to treat the wounds on the omega the best he can.

"Okay, let me take care of him. He'll listen to me more anyways since I'm an alpha. He might question later why he's listening to a beta. It's alright." Roman whispers to him, then moves out of his way. Only to help him care for the wound on the omegas head. "Or do you think we should let him choose? I... I don't really know. You gravitated towards me but that might just be cause I kept getting in your way back then..."

He sat perfectly still while they tended to his wound, not even moving a bit.

“I don’t really know either. I think we should let him choose so he can get used to choosing for himself easier?...” Logan whispers as he and Roman care for the wound.

"Yeah, thats a good idea. It'll be a nice first step to getting him used to that. Jesus, can he take one of your heat suppressors first? It is so hard trying to concentrate with that heat smell." He says with a low growl in his voice, but he shakes his head and groans.

Logan nods, quickly getting one as he notes that he’s running low on them before returning and crouching in front of the omega. “Hey, I need you to take this. It doesn’t hurt, I promise.”

Roman scoots a bit back once he rushes off to compose himself. He knows it'll take about twenty minutes for it to really take effect but at least he'll have taken it.

He slowly looks up once he was addressed and he looks down at the pill. He debates on whether he should take it or not. Before swallowing his fear and gets the pill, quickly swallowing it dry. He is scared of taking it of course, since his master's did gave them drugs a lot, but he didn't want to anger any of them either.

“They aren’t harmful, they help a lot in heat. They also help my friend, Roman, keep control of himself and his instincts better.” Logan says trying to reassure him that he is safe.

"Okay, Master... Thank you. I'm sorry I hurt other Master from my heat... Why isn't he breeding me...? Or you?" He asked, finally looking up at both of them. Then he bites his lip, "Sorry for asking questions... Am I allowed to ask questions, Master's?"

Roman shivered at how dull his voice sounded. Yep... Exactly like how Logan sounded... "Hey, little omega." He scoots closer to him, keeping his hands down onto the rug. "We have a question for you. And yes, you may ask as many questions as your heart wants. You wont get in trouble by it. No question is dumb. And no breeding, we don't do breeding here. Unless you want it." He takes a breath, "Would you want me as your master or Logan here? You get to choose who you want to follow, is that alright?"

“It is not your fault.” Logan shivers with Roman, remembering when he was like this. Logan nods, agreeing with Roman and looking in between the omega and Roman slowly.

He was silent, looking between both of them. He...gets to choose? That's...really strange. Sometimes he does have two or three Master's at a time. So this is strange. And he is scared at picking the wrong one and the other being angry at him. As he debates this he bites his lip nervously hugging himself. Very slowly he points at Logan, he trusted him more then Roman right now. Especially since he's a beta. Then he quickly looked at Roman, only to flinch and look away.

"Hey, hey, that's good. Thank you for choosing and answering us. Here," He gets up to go to the kitchen, and he comes back with half a cookie. "A treat for being so good for us so far." He gives him the cookie and luckily he takes it, but he glances at Logan. "You're gonna be up for this?"

Logan nods hesitantly. “Y-Yes.”

Roman obviously hears his stutter and he smiles softly, "Come here." He stands up and backs away so the omega won't think he's towering over him or anything. And he hugs Logan, "You can do this, okay? I know you can. You've come so so far. If it ever gets too much you can tell him to stay in your room and come to mine, okay? Or tell him to listen and follow me. I won't mind it at all." He whispers to his ear.

He glances at the cookie and sniffs it hesitantly, he's never seen this before... Strange... It doesn't smell bad or rotten so that's good... He slowly takes a nibble from the cookie but once he tastes the flavor his eyes widened. He shovels the entire thing in his mouth and happily chews it, loving the taste. "Thank you!" He says around his mouthful.

Logan hugs back, nodding softly.

Roman gives a gentle squeeze, "So... We should probably take this guy to the hospital first. He looks pretty...thin and sickly... He might have to stay overnight just by the looks of him... You get him in the car and I pack a bag?" He asked, thinking that was probably the best course of action.

Logan nods, turning to help the omega. “We’re going to get you to a hospital, okay?”

"Hos...pital....? What's that, Master?" He asked, taking his hand a bit shakily to stand up. He got dizzy when he stood up though and had to grip on the couch to keep steady and not fall. Taking a few shaky breaths he tried to stop the room from spinning.

Roman rushed into his room to grab his back and start packing.

Logan helps him stand shifting him so he is supporting the omega. “It’s a place where doctors work and they help heal sick and injuried people. They are good.”

He whimpered when he moved him, thinking he was going to toss him to the ground and force him to move. But instead he blinked and was shocked to see him actually supporting him. Uh... "O-Oh... No... No previous... Master's...? No...cops?" He asked shakily, his head hurting the more he moved. But he forced himself to keep going for Logan.

Logan nods, quickly picking him up carefully and softly. “None of that, I promise.” Logan speaks softly.

"O-Okay... Thank you, Master." He squeaked and tried to hold in a small scream when he picked him up. But he took a shaky breath to calm down. "I... You're...a better Master already... I... I like you more..." He whispered under his breath as he held on to him, blinking at the sunlight once they got outside and hissing softly. "M-Master... Other Master isn't mad that I choose you, right? You're not mad either?"

“Neither of us are mad, I promise.” Logan says as he places the omega in the car.

"O-Okay... Okay... Thank you, Master. I'm sorry for punishing myself. I'm very sorry." He says, sitting down in the car very stock still. He wanted to be good for his new master after all.

Roman came jogging over with a bag, "Alright, I got snacks and a change of clothes for all of us. Here's I assume the clothes you tried to give him? It was laying on the couch so..." He gave Logan the clothes, "Then toothbrush, toothpaste, uh... I don't think we need anything else... I'll come back tomorrow if he does need to stay."

Logan nods, taking the clothes. “Okay, good. thank you, Roman”

"Of course, man, of course." Roman gives him a quick hug before going over to place the bag in the truck. "I'll drive!" He says as he hops into the drivers seat and started up the car to turn on the heat as it was a bit chilly outside.

The omega watched them curiously, not having an idea what is going on. As the car started he jumped in surprise before resting back down, shifting side to side a bit nervously.

Logan sits next to the omega just in case he needs help. “You’re safe. Nothing is going to hurt you now.” Logan reassures the omega softly.

He glanced over at him once he sat next to him, blinking as to why he did that. And he stared at him at his reassuring words, just staring for several moments. Before giving a nod, "O-Okay... I uh... Okay..." He mumbles, and he didn't sound like he was convinced at all. But he agrees anyways.

"We'll both protect you, alright? Trust me. Your part of our pack now, so you don't have to worry about a thing. Just focus on getting better and we'll do the rest." Roman said as he started pulling out then driving along.

Logan nods. “Yes, Roman is correct.”

He is silent, then glances away. "A...pack?" His voice trembles and he swallows thickly. "I... No... No dark room? I... I don't....want to go back... to dark room... I'm... I'm sorry... I'll be good, I promise." He sounded on the verge of tears and he hiccuped, drawing his hands shakily around himself in a hug.

“No dark room, we promise. You don’t have to apologize.” Logan reassures softly, extremely concerned about the omega.

"Yes, Logan is right. No dark room. We'll make sure you don't ever go back there. We'll keep your room lit at all times. It's okay, it's okay, you've been so good for both of us. We're really happy at how good you've been." Roman replied back, keeping his voice soft. But he glances at Logan from the rear view mirror with concern. And he could tell that Logan feels exactly the same.

"R-Really? Oh... Okay... Thank you... Master's. Thank you." He sounded very relieved, incredibly relieved actually. "You're...good Master's... Thank you." He really did sound greatful, these Master's were already a lot better then his previous ones. He takes a shaky breath and pulls up his knees to his chest, trying to be small as possible.

Logan is extremely concerned for the omega.

Roman is silent for a bit, sharing Logan's exact worried thoughts. This one...might be worse then Logan's case... And he isn't sure if they can even help him. But he wants to try, he really wants to try. "So... Do you have a name? We can't keep calling you 'omega' or any of that forever."

He snapped out of his thoughts to look ahead at Roman. And he shook his head. "No, Master. I don't. I'm whatever a master wants to call me. Some name me slut... Others name me whore. Would you want to name me one of those?"

Logan’s concern quickly turns to worry. “No...”

"What?!" Roman sounded appalled, and concerned. Mixed with anger and disgust as well. "No! No... No, we are not calling you any of those names. Hell no. What about... Hm... What do you think, lo? You are his master after all."

He flinched when they all said no to that. Guess that's...a bad thing? He swallowed thickly and glanced to logan, waiting for his answer but remaining quiet this time.

“Hm.. Dee maybe?” Logan is extremely worried and nervous currently and that is one of the only names he can think of.

"Dee's a good name! What do you think about that name? We could change it if you don't like it." Roman says, honestly he's as worried if not more then Logan right now. But he's trying to lift up the mood the best he could. Which probably isn't very good but hey, he's trying.

"it's... It's okay... Thank you, Master. My name is dee now, thank you." He says, bowing his head. Really any name Logan chose he would've said it was good to. But this name he rather quite...liked. It had a nice ring to it, he thought.

Logan smiles softly, mentally thanking Roman for trying to lift the room.

Roman could tell that he was thanking him quietly, and he smiled at that. He drove into the parking spot at the hospital and sighed as he stopped the car and unbuckled. "Alright, you carry Dee in lo and uh... I guess I can sign the papers? If you want? And you go with Dee to the back while they uh...do whatever they need to do?" He asked, figuring out the plan.

Dee was quiet and he looked out the window, marveling at just how big the building was. It was way bigger then the warehouse, or well, what he thinks the warehouse looked like from the outside.

Logan nods, getting out of the car and going to Dee’s side.

Dee looks up when he gets out of the car, and he slowly attempts to open his door. Once he did he stood up, but he must've stood up way too quickly cause everything spun around suddenly. He grew pale before collasping. Luckily he fell right on Logan and he had his eyes shut, his breathing was uneven and he took shaky breaths in.

Roman practically jumped out of the car when he saw Dee collasping. "Logan, go in now! I'll sign the papers!" He quickly got in the car to grab his keys, rushing around.

Logan nods, scooping Dee up and rushing into the hospital.

Dee whimpered at the sudden movement, gripping onto him hard like he was afraid of falling. But he also hid his head in his chest, the rush of light hurting his eyelids. He could hear voices but it sounded like it was coming from underwater.

Luckily, nurses saw them and rushed over. A few nurses were right behind and guestered Logan over to one of their back rooms. They were speaking to each other while they told Logan to set him on the bed in the room. "We'll take it from here. Can you wait in the waiting room for us, please?"

Logan goes in the room and places him on the bed. “I-I uh okay.” Logan stammers before hesitatingly leaving the room and going back to the waiting room, extremely worried and nervous.

Dee doesn't know what's going on, as he felt hands and what he thinks is needles on his arm. "Ma... Master...?" He shakily whispers under his breath and manages to open his eyes. Only to see that Logan has left and he sighed, his head resting on the pillow once more.

Roman is filling out the paperwork when he looks up. "What they say?" He asked, holding up his wrist for Logan to scent if he needed it. He knows that calms him down most of the time, but he isn't sure about right now.

“That they were going to take over now.” Logan says as he softly holds Roman wrist, smelling his scent which calms a part of Logan but he is still nervous and worried.

"It's gonna be alright, Lo. They'll fix him. I promise you that they'll fix him. Everything will be alright, okay? Sh..." Roman released calming and reassuring scents for him and rubbed his back. He even started nuzzling his cheek with his own. "They'll fix him, and we will go home and really get to know him. Dee is a great name for him by the way. It's a fantastic name." He cooed, trying to calm him down the best he could.

Logan smiles softly as the calming and reassuring scents work, he nuzzles his cheek back gently.

Roman smiles back, glad that the scents were working in calming him down. He nuzzles his cheek back gently and sent more scents his way. And he sighed softly, honestly very worried and concerned himself. But he tries to hide it for Logan's sake.

About a half hour later a nurse comes out and walks over to Logan. "You're the one with the scarred omega right?"

Logan nods, becoming extremely worried. “Yes, is he okay?”

Roman is silent, waiting and squeezing Logan's hand.

"He is stable for now. We think he'll be okay in the long run, yes. He's going to need lots of treatment though. His blood cell count was...we haven't ever seen it as low as his was. We had to do a blood transfusion, mulitiple IVs, an oxygen tank since he was having troubles breathing on his own. He is... He's pretty sick."

Logan nods, still extremely worried but is relieved to here that they think he will be okay in the long run at least and Roman’s presence alone is helping him stay calm. “Ah...” Logan manages to say. Due to the abuse he went through from that alpha, Logan is quite awkward when it comes to social things and is extremely quiet often only answering with one or two words. It took a while for him to properly talk and open up to Roman, Roman being one of few people Logan can properly talk without only using one or two words.

Roman is extremely relieved, worried but relieved. As long as they think he'll be fine in the long run that's good enough for him. That means that he has a good enough chance to survive. He squeezes Logan's hand reassuringly when he hears the single word, knowing exactly what he wants to say. He knows that Logan can't say more then one word in front of strangers, so he often steps in and talks for him. And he knows what he wants to say just from his expression and his tone of that single word. "We are very grateful. Thank you so so much. We are both just... Thank you. Is there any chance we can see him?"

"Yes, you may. Right this way." She points down the hallway and smiles, "No need to thank me. I'm just doing my job." She smiles and opens up a door.

Logan smiles softly at Roman, silently thanking him. When she opens the door, Logan goes in the room quickly with extreme worry all over his face.

Roman smiles back, squeezing his hand yet again to silently say that he doesn't have to thank him. Then he followed them, he stays a bit behind Logan making sure he gets to Dee first.

There are quite a lot of wires going into both of his arms, including the poles beside him. And loud beeping was coming from the heart monitor. Dee looked paler then before, his sticky hair plastered to his forehead. And a mask was over his mouth and nose. He definitely didn't look good right now at all, he looked close to death with how pale he is. He appeared to be asleep, his eyes closed and was resting luckily.

Logan lets out a breath he didn’t know he was holding when he sees Dee but worry still runs his mind currently.

Roman swallows at the sight of Dee. That...didn't look very good... He looked back at the nurse to see that she's already gone, huh, well... Then he glanced at Logan to see his transfixed stare at Dee. "Hey, hey, he's going to be okay. Sh... I know it's a lot. But he's going to be fine." He hugs Logan tightly and rubs his back. Just then he heard a groan come from the omega and he looks over, watching Dee slowly open his eyes and look around.

Logan hugs back, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath in. Logan then looks immediately at Dee when he heard the groan. “H-How are you feeling, Dee?”

Roman looks over as well, holding in his breath. He draws up a chair besides his bed for Logan and himself. Knowing Logan probably won't want to leave his side for a while, knowing him at least.

Dee stared at them, as if he has to really concentrate as to who they are. He was silent for several moments before he swallowed and finally spoke. "T-Tired... Not.... Not good..." He groaned out, Winching a bit. "Hurts..? Hurts... Master...didn't leave me?" He sounded a bit heartbroken, like he actually thought that Logan was going to leave him here and won't come back.

Logan sits down, once again silently thanking Roman. When Dee speaks Logan feels guilty for leaving the room and making Dee think he was going to abandon him. “N-No, I would never. I will n-never. I promise.”

Ran shakes his head without saying anything, as if silently saying don't mention it. He focuses on Dee and shakes his head, "No... No, we won't leave you. We won't ever leave you. Okay?"

Dee blinked between them and he could see some emotion in Logan's eyes. He couldn't place what it was though... He cleared his throat a bit then sucked in a breath. "Really...? Oh... Okay... I'm sorry, Master... Sorry... I thought that... Won't think that again..." He silently stared at the wall for a moment before blinking and coming to. "What's... this?" He points weakly at the mask, it wasn't hurting and he could obviously still talk, but he didn't know what it was for.

“I-It’s a mask that helps you b-breathe.” Logan explains, gripping Roman’s hand gently to remind himself that Roman is here which calms him.

Roman grips his hand back, gently rubbing his thumb along logans hand. He scoots his chair closer and hugs Logan from the side, still holding his hand. He released calming scents again, wanting Logan to know that he's here and not going to leave him.

"Oh... Oh... Okay... Feels funny... Mhm..." He whispers, his voice slurring together. "Mhm... No... No bad men? Bad...alphas... You better Master... Like you... Don't make me eat pups like old Master's... Pups don't taste very good..." He was obviously high off of some drug. But it was making him calm, maybe a bit too calm.

Logan smiles softly at the scents, it working though when Dee says this some bad memories attack his mind but he manages to stay composed and not curl up in a ball. His alpha never made him eat his pups luckily though he did often kill them in front of Logan or forced Logan to kill them. “N-No bad men a-are here... I-I won’t, I-I promise with all my heart.”

Roman is dead silent at what Dee says. He doesn't even know what to say back to that. But he does feel Logan tighten up so he moves his free hand up to massage his scalp. "There is none of that here, we promise. None of that will happen ever again. Now...try to relax okay? Get some sleep. We'll be here when you wake up, little one. Sh..." Roman goes over to pull the blanket over him some more and sighs softly, going right back to Logan side.

Dee glances between both of them. "Okay... Okay... Uh... Is... Is Master okay?" Even in his daze state he noticed his stuttering and little bit of shakingness. Then he blinks at Roman and nods, "Okay... I'll get some sleep...for you Master... Want to be good...for you... Good slave... Mhm... Good slut..." He yawns, then smiles his eyes dropping closed.

Logan has started to space out remembering every pup, what he wanted to name them, and how they died, trembling and leaning into Roman’s warmth. Logan flinches for second when Roman touches his scrap but when he smells Roman’s scent a half second later he stops and leans into Roman’s hand.

Roman could feel him trembling and could feel his flinch, he removes his hand only to see him leaning into it. So he continued massaging his scalp, and he hugs him close and protectively. "Master is alright, he's okay. It's just been a long day for him. You aren't a slave or a slut. You are Dee. And your the best omega anybody could ask for. Now sh... Sh... Go to sleep." He watches Dee slowly fall asleep. Then he digs in his pockets for his earpods that he always carries with him just in case. He places them in Logan's ears then brings out his phone as well. He scrolls through his music to find the playlist he had downloaded just for when Logan gets his flashbacks. He starts playing it then he gently rocked him side to side, humming softly and releasing his calming scents some more. "You're not there, Logan. You're not there. Sh... Focus on the music. Focus on me." He whispered calmly to him.

Logan’s trembling soon stops after Roman starts playing music and releasing his calming scents. Logan relaxes, slowly hugging Roman gently and tired as flashbacks can be tiring and he didn’t get much sleep last night.

Roman smiles when he could feel his trembling slowly coming to a stop. That's great. That's...really really great. And he smiles even more at feeling him relaxing under his hands. Thank God he downloaded that playlist, it has been a lifesaver more then once. He knew he'd be tired right after this so he looks around the room. And luckily there were a small couch at the far end of the wall. Gently he scoops up Logan in his arms and brings him over to the couch, laying Logan on his chest and grabbing a blanket and pillow from where he was. He laid the blanket on them and puts the pillow behind his head. He places a gentle kiss on Logan's forehead then rubs his back. "Go to sleep, Lo. I'll be here. I won't leave you." He whispers to him, yawning himself. It's been a tiring few hours.

“G-Goodnight, Ro.” Logan yawns softly before falling asleep and gently snuggling Roman in his sleep.

"Goodnight, Lo." He whispers back, and he stays awake for a bit longer. Just to make sure that Logan is asleep and Dee is too. The heart monitor is weirdly calming but at the same time stressful. But he sighs and lays down some more, having his arms gently protective around Logan. And he falls asleep snuggling Logan back and he sleeps peacefully.

Logan sleeps peacefully for several hours until a nightmare attacked his first peaceful sleep in around a month causing him to shift slightly and whimper.

Roman was still sound asleep, but when he heard that whimper subconsciously he held him tighter and released more calming scents. "Mhm... No... Bad...sound... Mhm... Not that... Not..." He mumbled in his sleep then turned his head, he rolled over and held Logan almost like a stuffed animal close to his chest.

Logan relaxes, the nightmare stopping. Logan snuggles closer to Roman chest in his sleep.

Roman snuggled him, wrapping his arms and legs around him in his sleep. He immediately went back to sleep once Logan snuggled up to him, even subconsciously knowing that he's fine now.

Just as they were about to go back to sleep Dee's heart monitor started beeping more intensely. And the sounds of the bed rocking back and forth can be heard. Followed by what sounded like crying and mumbling incoherent words.

Logan immediately wakes up, jumping in surprise and falls off the couch before looking at Dee, panicking.

Dee is kicking out at something, his head shaking back and forth and sobbing. Though he was clearly asleep, just having a nightmare by the looks of things. He was doing that for a moment before he suddenly screams at the top of his lungs and jump up, his eyes open with a panic and his breathing is heavy. He brings up his knees to his chest and sobs quietly into his knees.

Roman was starting to wake up when he heard the loud thuds, but at the loud scream he was instantly awake. He snapped awake and nearly fell ontop of logan. But he manages to catch himself and look around to where the screaming came from. Only to see it was Dee who was crying and shaking. He frowns and leans over to Logan to take out the earpods, then he slowly walked over to Dee. "Hey... Hey, it's okay... It's alright. Sh..." He cooed. But Dee only jumped away from him, and looked at him with pure terror.

Logan gets up from the floor slowly and carefully approaches Dee slowly. “Hey.. Dee... it’s okay... you’re safe...”

Roman slowly backs away then, he knows if he keeps going towards him that would only make him panic more.

Dee whips over when he hears Logan and sucks in a breath. His eyes are unfocused for a bit and he just stares at Logan. Until he shakes his head to clear it out. Slowly he registers what he's saying and he hiccups. "M-Master...?" He managed to say, his body shaking. "I... I... N-No... Not... Mhm..." He whispers, shaking his head and curling back into a ball.

“Did you have a nightmare, Dee?” Logan says softly, slowly moving closer to Dee.

"Y-Yes... M-Master..." He hiccuped, hiding his face in his knees the best he could. Though the tugging on the wires were making it hard to do. But he ignored it and kept tugging, sobbing quietly. He seemed to be forcing himself to calm down, probably from his nails digging into his legs so hard that it's causing it to bleed. But it's making himself snap back to reality, which is what he wanted. "Sorry... Sorry... Stupid... M' stupid... I'll... Go back to sleep now... Very.. very... Very sorry...to wake you up.. very... I..." He sucks in a harsh breath then forced himself to lay back down.

“Hey, it’s okay... I’m sorry you had a nightmare... You aren’t stupid.. it’s not your fault, Dee...” Logan speaks softly.

Dee hesitantly glanced at him, still tears pouring down his cheeks but he shakes his head. He immediately wipes it all away and digs his nails into his face to keep from crying some more. "I... Not... Not okay... Not... I.... Why...aren't you... whipping me... Master? I don't.. I... I... Stupid... Stupid...slut... Not..." He takes a shaky breath, "Every night...have nightmares... It's fine... It's... It's okay..."

“You aren’t a s-slut. You are Dee and you are amazing. I’m sorry you have nightmares every night.... I do too.” Logan is extremely worried about Dee.

Dee immediately shook his head, his name now is Dee of course. But he isn't amazing. He is anything but. He's a slut, that's what he is... Though at his whisper he glanced up at him, few bits of blood coming from his cheeks. "Master...has nightmares... N-Not... Not possible... Not... Lying... Lying... Trick... Master's trick... Lie... Master's lie..." He shook his head again and brought up the blanket over his head. "Lie..." He whispered, hiding himself in a tight ball.

Roman glanced over at Logan and bit his lip nervously. Logan wasn't like this at all back when he saved him. Sure, he did hide away when he had nightmares but... He didn't hurt himself or act like this. He wasn't sure what to do.

Logan doesn’t know what to do too. “I can promise you that I am not lying...” Worry and Concern overwhelming Logan as he speaks softly.

Dee could hear the worry in his voice, and it's very clear now. He at first didn't even know what that emotion was. Until he had to realize it sounded a lot like the others when they're being taken away by the alphas. Worry... And fear of course. He swallows and slowly peeks out to look at him. "Master's...don't...get nightmares... They... They give it..." He hiccuped, "You... I... I'm... I'm confused..." He admitted slowly as it was clear that his hands were trembling against his cheeks.

“Not all Masters are like that... I-I used to have a M-Master like that.... B-But now I-I’m free.” Logan says as he slowly ends up next to Dee and carefully and slowly tries to lower Dee’s hands from his face.

"You.... You... You...did?" He had to repeat himself as he tried to focus on his words rather then his shaking and ever growing panic in his mind. "How... You... I... Huh?" He asked, completely confused as to how he had a Master before too. But he's a Master... How does that...make sense... When he moves towards his hands he whimpered and shut his eyes, flinching violently from his hands. Only to open his eyes and look at him, his hands moving with his movements.

Logan slowly and gently moves his hands down away from his face. “I’m sorry for scaring you, I don’t want you to hurt yourself... Yes, I did. I’m sorry you had to go through all that.”

Dee doesn't open his eyes at all while he has hold of his hands. He keeps whimpering and holding his breath, expecting to get hit from him. Ever so slowly he opens his eyes once he moves his hands down then blinks. "You... Bad...hurt... Bad..." He finally sucks in a gasp of air and hugs himself. He doesn't know how to handle of this. That he's apologizing to him. That he really had a Master before too. None of this makes much sense to him. "I... I... I don't... I..." He shuts his eyes again and shakes his head, he was still shaking but it wasn't nearly as bad as before. And his breathing has gone down now that he's thinking of what Logan's saying. "Sorry...? Sorry... Sorry... Wake up bad... Sorry." He mumbled.

“It’s okay. I’m sorry for startling you. I was going to wake up from a nightmare soon most likely so you kinda saved me from another nightmare. Thank you.” Logan says softly.

"You...were? I uh... Um... I... Huh?" He definitely seemed confused at the thanks, he's never been...thanked before. He stares at him as if he's crazy, blinking and not saying anything else. He glances over at Roman to make sure he wasn't crazy and no... He's nodding along to what he's saying. Then he glanced back at Logan, he didn't know how to respond to that at all. Though, he guessed it's good that he...sorta saved him from another nightmare...he suppose?

Logan smiles softly at Dee.

"I... I... M' sorry? I uh... I'm... Why are...you saying sorry...to me? I'm... I'm confused... I'm... Why... I don't... Understand?" He stuttered, sounding very confused and lost. "Why... How... You had a Master... You..." He swallowed thickly, raising up his hands again but to just wipe away the tears some more so he could see. "Go...back to bed... Master... Sorry..." He knows he won't be able to get any more sleep for the rest of the night now though. Once he has a nightmare he normally can't fall asleep again, no matter how hard he tries.

Logan is extremely worried. “I want to make sure you are as okay as you can be currently....”

Dee stares at him, confused beyond belief. "Why...?" Why does he care if he's okay? Or as okay as he could be? Why... That doesn't make any sense to him. Why would a Master bother to make sure he's okay? This doesn't make any sense to him...

Logan has concern and worry all over his face and body language.

"B-Because we care about you." Roman finally speaks up, he wanted Logan to take this over since he seems to trust him more. But he knew he won't know what to say back to that. "Because... We... Logan here...as your Master...wants you to be healthy, mentally and physically... He isn't like your other Master's... He much rather prefer you to be healthy for him..." He mumbled, hoping he was saying the right thing.

Dee glances over at Roman and blinks, then stared at Logan. "Want me...to be healthy...?" He slowly comprehends that finding it really strange. "Oh... Oh... That's... Uh... Okay?"

Logan nods, that being exactly what he wanted to say but just couldn’t figure out how to say, silently thanking Roman.

Dee is silent for a moment, "For...breeding? Gonna...breed me? Is that why...you want me healthy? Am I...a breed... slave...?" He asked hesitantly, course he won't mind being a breeding slave. It's better then being a normal slave like he was.

Roman frowns at Dee and shakes his head, "No, no, Hun. We aren't going to touch you like that. Never. Unless you want to. And only if you positively sure. But that's not for a long time. We want you healthy cause we like to see you happy. We want to help you in any way we can. I think... We should walk around a bit, yeah? Since I don't think any of us will get any more sleep." He glances at logan, "I can go get a wheelchair for him?" He offered.

Logan is stunned by Dee’s words and has no clue what to say. When Roman offers to get the wheelchair he slowly shakes his head no. “N-No I’ll go get it...” Before going to find a wheelchair.

Dee glanced between them, confused as to why they want him happy. But he doesn't say anything. Instead he watches him closely, and watches Logan go out and get a wheelchair silently. He feels like he done something wrong, or maybe said something wrong? He isn't sure...

Roman watches him with worry. "Hang on one moment, okay? Be right back." He said to Dee before stepping out and following Logan. "Lo? Lo? Are you okay? You were stuttering and shaking back there." He says with worry.

Logan is shaking as memorys pound into his mind and tears flow down his face. He slowly shakes his head no before hugging Roman.

As Roman got closer to him he could see that he is clearly shaking. And he instantly grew even more worried, he knew that was too much for him. Before he could even say anything he had Logan right on his chest. He blinked in shock for a moment before hugging him back. "Would you like the music back on, Lo?" He whispered to him, rubbing his back soothingly and releasing calming scents.

Logan nods, holding onto Roman as if if he lets go Roman would disappear. The scents help greatly in helping Logan calm down.

Roman nodded, luckily he still has the earpods from earlier. He placed them in Logan's ears gently then resumed the music from last time. "Im right here. Im right here. I won't leave you. I've got you. You're safe, logie. Your safe. I've got you." He whispered to him as the music played, releasing some more calming scents and gently rocking him. It...might not have been a good idea having Logan take care of this omega... He sighs inwardly, trying to think up of some plan for helping both of them out.

Logan soon relaxes, calming down completely. His shaking is now barely noticeable. “I’m sorry.” Logan whispers softly.

Roman is relieved that he's relaxed and calmed now. He's very relieved... He continues to rub his back though, keeping him close. When he hears the apologetic whisper he immediately shakes his head. "There's no need to be. Don't be sorry. It's alright, that was a lot, I understand. Are... Are you sure you'll be able to handle this though, Logan? I... I don't like seeing you having this many episodes..." He trails off worringly. He doesn't want to pressure him out of this, but he's really worried about him.

Logan thinks for a second. “I-I don’t know....” Logan admits. “I don’t know w-what to do...”

"Hey, hey, it's okay. Let's just take it one step at a time, yeah? I'll answer his questions from now on, is that okay? Let's get a wheelchair for him and take him outside, since I don't think he's had much fresh air a lot in his life. And just...relax. How does that sound?" He asked, moving back to smile gently at him. He wants to make sure that Logan is going to be okay with everything, but he's also very worried about him.

Logan nods. “T-That sounds good.”

"Alright, alright. Here, just in case you need the playlist on hand." He hands him his phone, knowing him well enough to trust him with it. Then he smiled and took his hand, leading him over to a desk where there were some available wheelchairs for the patients and took one.

Logan smiles softly as he carefully puts the phone in his pocket. He follows Roman and helps Roman take the wheelchair to the room.

A lone omega runs down an alleyway, he didn't have a single idea where he was going or where he even was. His only thought was to run. He only wore a thong and a collar with a leash that was dragging behind him, clearly a sign that he was a slave to some alpha. His hands were tied and he had a muzzle strapped to his mouth. And was covered in scars from head to toe, half of his body being burned by flames. And he was in heat, heavily in heat.

Logan, a beta, had been walking to a bookstore when he smelt the lone omega in heat and could tell something was wrong. Logan quickly figured out where the scent was coming from and ran into the alleyway to help.

The smell of fear was coming off in waves from this one omega, plus the smell of heat. It was strong enough to attract anybody nearby really. But he didn't know that. He was too terrified to even think properly. The only thoughts going through his mind was to run away. Run before his masters catch him. When he saw somebody running towards him he froze, trying to step back only to fall on the pavement. He whimpered and whined, sobbing loudly and pleading. His arms and hands over his face to protect himself and his entire body trembling and violently shaking. He wasn't even sure if he was breathing or not, judging by how badly his chest was caving in it definitely didn't feel like he was. He could smell the distant scent that came from him but he couldn't concentrate long enough to figure out that he was a beta.

Logan rushed to his side. “Hey, calm down. I’m not going to hurt you. Can you tell me what is going on?”

He gave a yelp of surprise when he rushed over to him, he sobbed shutting his eyes in fear. Then he shook his head, tears streaming down his eyes and he looked so scared and terrified. Just then he heard what sounded like footsteps coming down the other side of the alleyway and he gave a muffled scream, he could recongize that scent anywhere. He was frozen in fear though, his eyes even wider. He's going to die... He's going to die... They're gonna kill him. It's all over.

Logan gets the sense that whoever was making those footsteps isn’t good. “I’m going to pick you up, sorry if it hurts.” Logan says before picking the omega up, using adrenaline he starts to run out of the alleyway.

He makes a tiny noise before he's suddenly picked up. He didn't even hear what Logan had just said so when he's suddenly picked up he nearly jumped so badly he just about fell from his arms. Luckily he didn't and he was in shock to find him running away. What...is he doing?! He looked behind to see that luckily they got out of there just in time before the alphas had gotten to where they just were. His gaze landed on Logan and he whimpered behind the muzzle, holding his hands close to his chest. He was still scared, this beta could be taking him to a group of alphas for all he knows.

Logan keeps running, heading back quickly to his apartment. He hopes that his memory of one his roommate who happens to be an alpha saying he was heading out is correct. As much as he trusts him he thinks the omega isn’t going to be comfortable with an alpha nearby currently.

The omega was crying the entire way, scared of what was to happen and become of him. What if Master's follow him? What if he's heading to New Master's? What if he's going to hurt him himself? There's so many what ifs and he's so terrified right now. He didn't stop crying even when Logan got into the apartment and had closed the door. By then his hands were raised to protect himself while he was crying. His cheeks covered in tears and his eyes red and puffy.

Logan quickly locks the door before placing him on the couch gently. Logan carefully removes the muzzle, speaking softly to him. “Hey, you’re safe. I promise that no one is going to hurt you. I’m trying to help you.

He gave a cry when he was placed on the couch before stopping and looking down, not harmful? Not harmful. Okay. Then he flinched and whimpered, crying out when he moved to touch him. Only to realize he's taking off the muzzle. There were obvious signs that it's been on his mouth for a very long time, his peeling and blistering skin is anything to go by. When he opened his mouth the other could see that his tongue is completely missing. He hiccuped and curled up against the couch, shaking his head. "M-Master... Master... Master... He... You... I... I can't... No... I..." He stuttered over himself, his breathing quick. He was obviously too scared to even make much sense. The thong basically did nothing and he was making a small mess on the couch by his slick.

Logan quickly grabs some of his own spare clothes. “I need you to try to calm down a bit. I have some spare clothes you can borrow.” Logan is worried about this omega. From a past relationship he knew a small bit about how the omega is most likely feeling right now.

"N-No... No... Need... Need Master's...permission... I can't... Get in trouble... Trouble bad.... Trouble... I... I can't get... No.... No clothes..." He frantically shakes his head, looking at the clothes as if it'll burn him, which might not be far from the truth judging by how many scars he has. He tries to take deep breaths in, but it was so hard when his panicked thoughts are going so crazy right now. "I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." He whispered, shaking. "Gonna... Gonna...sell me? Take...to Master's or... Or... I..."

“It’s okay. I’m got going to any of that. I’m to call an ambulance and police, they are trained for situations like this and it’s going to help much better than I can on my own.”

"I... But... What.... They'll..." He takes another shaky breath to try and concentrate on talking. "Master's... Master's...in... Master's are in...work for police... Alphas work...for police... Black uniforms... Black uniforms with handcuffs... I think that's police... Will get me... They will get me." He says shakily, trying to calm down the best he could. Luckily it was getting easier and easier as he looked around the place and as time went by, he thought if he was gonna sell him he would be calling around already.

Logan is very worried by this. “Okay, let me think for a second.” Logan begins to think about what he should do, assessing every reasonable option.

He shakily nods, "A-Are you... Are you...my Master now...?" He asked hesitantly, then shut up so he could think. He was quiet, staring at him then everything around them taking the place in. He didn't understand what most of these things do, in all honesty... Even though he was curious he stayed perfectly still, not wanting to move unless told to. He didn't want to test the patience of this beta.

"Hello?" A voice entered the room, the front door being opened and the sound of keys being jangled could be heard.

Logan immediately chokes on his own tongue when he says that. “N-No. uh, um.” Logan is seriously caught off guard by that question.

"I-I... Huh...? But you...saved me...? You own...me now? I'm... I'm confused?" He stared at him, not understanding why he denied it. Either he is his new master or...he's being sold off... But he said no to being sold off so he's...really confused right now. Just as he was starting to finally calm down the door had opened and he jumped up. And his eyes instantly widened in fear when he smelt the alpha smell.

"Lo? You're back already too? Turns out that theater place was a ditch, such a shame too." Roman walked over to the living room and he froze at the scene before him. He was about ready to take off his bag when he spotted the nearly naked man on their couch. And he was definitely in heat. His nose winkled and he glanced at Logan. "Uh... Lo... Care to explain why a nearly naked omega that in heavy heat is currently in our apartment? Did you order a prostitute or something?"

“On my way to the bookstore I found this omega running from someone who he calls ‘Master’ who is most likely someone who has abused him and might kill him. So, no I have not ordered a prostitute.”

"Ah... Well, that's a shame. Cause my hormones are going bonkers right now. He..." Roman took a moment to process everything he just said. He glanced back at Logan, "Is it like... with you?" He asked, knowing about Logan's past. He was the one who helped him break from his alphas control after all.

The omega was dead quiet, he stared at Roman in pure horror. Is this who he's going to give him too?! He couldn't even ask any questions, all that came out was little peeps and hiccups.

“Yes, it is like that.” Logan can sense that the omega is more than terrified so he turns. “He’s not going to hurt you. I’m not selling you or letting you get hurt. He is a great friend of mine, I know him well and he is isn’t going to take advantage of you, I promise.

"Oh... Gotcha..." Roman takes a deep breath, trying to remember what he did with logan back then. Be a rock and ground him. Comfort him... Okay. Very slowly he kneeled down so he wasn't towering over the quivering omega. And he forced himself to push back his instincts on breeding this Omega. He clearly doesn't need that. And very slowly he scoots a bit forward so he was kneeling before the omega. And he let out calming scents. "I promise i won't ever hurt you, alright? I promise on my life. Can you take a breath for me? Focus on my voice and my scent. Sh... Sh... Breathe..."

The omega didn't know what was happening. But when Logan turned to him he looked over. Only to swallow and let out a few more peeps, but he seemed a bit calmer at that. Not take advantage... He jumped when Roman moved, only to blink when he kneeled down to the ground. He didn't know how to even respond to this. He stared at Roman then at Logan, being completely baffled and confused. "W-What...? But I...need a Master.... Need... I can't... Please? Can I have a Master? Please? I can't... I don't know...what to do with myself... Please..." He begged to them, clearly conditioned to needing a Master for everything.

Logan sighs softly, knowing this mindset more than he would like to. “You don’t need a Master, I promise. What they have done to you is wrong and what they have told you about needing a Master is false.” Logan speaks calmly and softly. Letting out calming scents like Roman but they are definitely not as strong as Roman’s due to some events from his past.

"I... I... N-No... I... I need..." He stuttered, shaking his head with tears in his eyes. He sounded devasted, like somebody told him his dog just died. He put his head in his hands and sobbed loudly once more, crying as if he lost something precious to him. "I... No... Not wrong... Not bad... No... They weren't... N-No... Please... Please..." He sobbed, "I need... A master.... Please!!" He begged, he looked around and noticed the wall behind him. He stood up and started slamming his head against the wall with enough force to make the wall shake. "I'm bad! Bad! Bad!!"

"I'll be your Master!" Roman blurted out, he didn't want to, obviously, but he didn't know how else to calm him down.

Logan quickly puts his arm in between him and the wall. “Calm down. You aren’t bad. If you need a Master, I will be your Master.” Logan says trying to keep his voice steady and calm.

"Are you sure, Logan? He... He's worse off then you were... And..." Roman said nervously, whispering to him. He isn't certain about Logan taking care of him, it might trigger some memories...

He immediately stops when he puts an arm between him. Then freezes when they both shouted that they were gonna be his master's. He looked back and stared between them. Then he took a shaky breath and nods, he stands perfectly still as some blood trickle down his head. "Okay... Master's... I'm... I'm sorry... I'm very sorry..." He sat back down, his head down and he immediately calmed down.

“I... I am not completely sure...” Logan whispers back, admitting he isn’t completely comfortable with taking care of him as he already close to an ‘episode’. Logan quickly gets a first aid kit before starting to treat the wounds on the omega the best he can.

"Okay, let me take care of him. He'll listen to me more anyways since I'm an alpha. He might question later why he's listening to a beta. It's alright." Roman whispers to him, then moves out of his way. Only to help him care for the wound on the omegas head. "Or do you think we should let him choose? I... I don't really know. You gravitated towards me but that might just be cause I kept getting in your way back then..."

He sat perfectly still while they tended to his wound, not even moving a bit.

“I don’t really know either. I think we should let him choose so he can get used to choosing for himself easier?...” Logan whispers as he and Roman care for the wound.

"Yeah, thats a good idea. It'll be a nice first step to getting him used to that. Jesus, can he take one of your heat suppressors first? It is so hard trying to concentrate with that heat smell." He says with a low growl in his voice, but he shakes his head and groans.

Logan nods, quickly getting one as he notes that he’s running low on them before returning and crouching in front of the omega. “Hey, I need you to take this. It doesn’t hurt, I promise.”

Roman scoots a bit back once he rushes off to compose himself. He knows it'll take about twenty minutes for it to really take effect but at least he'll have taken it.

He slowly looks up once he was addressed and he looks down at the pill. He debates on whether he should take it or not. Before swallowing his fear and gets the pill, quickly swallowing it dry. He is scared of taking it of course, since his master's did gave them drugs a lot, but he didn't want to anger any of them either.

“They aren’t harmful, they help a lot in heat. They also help my friend, Roman, keep control of himself and his instincts better.” Logan says trying to reassure him that he is safe.

"Okay, Master... Thank you. I'm sorry I hurt other Master from my heat... Why isn't he breeding me...? Or you?" He asked, finally looking up at both of them. Then he bites his lip, "Sorry for asking questions... Am I allowed to ask questions, Master's?"

Roman shivered at how dull his voice sounded. Yep... Exactly like how Logan sounded... "Hey, little omega." He scoots closer to him, keeping his hands down onto the rug. "We have a question for you. And yes, you may ask as many questions as your heart wants. You wont get in trouble by it. No question is dumb. And no breeding, we don't do breeding here. Unless you want it." He takes a breath, "Would you want me as your master or Logan here? You get to choose who you want to follow, is that alright?"

“It is not your fault.” Logan shivers with Roman, remembering when he was like this. Logan nods, agreeing with Roman and looking in between the omega and Roman slowly.

He was silent, looking between both of them. He...gets to choose? That's...really strange. Sometimes he does have two or three Master's at a time. So this is strange. And he is scared at picking the wrong one and the other being angry at him. As he debates this he bites his lip nervously hugging himself. Very slowly he points at Logan, he trusted him more then Roman right now. Especially since he's a beta. Then he quickly looked at Roman, only to flinch and look away.

"Hey, hey, that's good. Thank you for choosing and answering us. Here," He gets up to go to the kitchen, and he comes back with half a cookie. "A treat for being so good for us so far." He gives him the cookie and luckily he takes it, but he glances at Logan. "You're gonna be up for this?"

Logan nods hesitantly. “Y-Yes.”

Roman obviously hears his stutter and he smiles softly, "Come here." He stands up and backs away so the omega won't think he's towering over him or anything. And he hugs Logan, "You can do this, okay? I know you can. You've come so so far. If it ever gets too much you can tell him to stay in your room and come to mine, okay? Or tell him to listen and follow me. I won't mind it at all." He whispers to his ear.

He glances at the cookie and sniffs it hesitantly, he's never seen this before... Strange... It doesn't smell bad or rotten so that's good... He slowly takes a nibble from the cookie but once he tastes the flavor his eyes widened. He shovels the entire thing in his mouth and happily chews it, loving the taste. "Thank you!" He says around his mouthful.

Logan hugs back, nodding softly.

Roman gives a gentle squeeze, "So... We should probably take this guy to the hospital first. He looks pretty...thin and sickly... He might have to stay overnight just by the looks of him... You get him in the car and I pack a bag?" He asked, thinking that was probably the best course of action.

Logan nods, turning to help the omega. “We’re going to get you to a hospital, okay?”

"Hos...pital....? What's that, Master?" He asked, taking his hand a bit shakily to stand up. He got dizzy when he stood up though and had to grip on the couch to keep steady and not fall. Taking a few shaky breaths he tried to stop the room from spinning.

Roman rushed into his room to grab his back and start packing.

Logan helps him stand shifting him so he is supporting the omega. “It’s a place where doctors work and they help heal sick and injuried people. They are good.”

He whimpered when he moved him, thinking he was going to toss him to the ground and force him to move. But instead he blinked and was shocked to see him actually supporting him. Uh... "O-Oh... No... No previous... Master's...? No...cops?" He asked shakily, his head hurting the more he moved. But he forced himself to keep going for Logan.

Logan nods, quickly picking him up carefully and softly. “None of that, I promise.” Logan speaks softly.

"O-Okay... Thank you, Master." He squeaked and tried to hold in a small scream when he picked him up. But he took a shaky breath to calm down. "I... You're...a better Master already... I... I like you more..." He whispered under his breath as he held on to him, blinking at the sunlight once they got outside and hissing softly. "M-Master... Other Master isn't mad that I choose you, right? You're not mad either?"

“Neither of us are mad, I promise.” Logan says as he places the omega in the car.

"O-Okay... Okay... Thank you, Master. I'm sorry for punishing myself. I'm very sorry." He says, sitting down in the car very stock still. He wanted to be good for his new master after all.

Roman came jogging over with a bag, "Alright, I got snacks and a change of clothes for all of us. Here's I assume the clothes you tried to give him? It was laying on the couch so..." He gave Logan the clothes, "Then toothbrush, toothpaste, uh... I don't think we need anything else... I'll come back tomorrow if he does need to stay."

Logan nods, taking the clothes. “Okay, good. thank you, Roman”

"Of course, man, of course." Roman gives him a quick hug before going over to place the bag in the truck. "I'll drive!" He says as he hops into the drivers seat and started up the car to turn on the heat as it was a bit chilly outside.

The omega watched them curiously, not having an idea what is going on. As the car started he jumped in surprise before resting back down, shifting side to side a bit nervously.

Logan sits next to the omega just in case he needs help. “You’re safe. Nothing is going to hurt you now.” Logan reassures the omega softly.

He glanced over at him once he sat next to him, blinking as to why he did that. And he stared at him at his reassuring words, just staring for several moments. Before giving a nod, "O-Okay... I uh... Okay..." He mumbles, and he didn't sound like he was convinced at all. But he agrees anyways.

"We'll both protect you, alright? Trust me. Your part of our pack now, so you don't have to worry about a thing. Just focus on getting better and we'll do the rest." Roman said as he started pulling out then driving along.

Logan nods. “Yes, Roman is correct.”

He is silent, then glances away. "A...pack?" His voice trembles and he swallows thickly. "I... No... No dark room? I... I don't....want to go back... to dark room... I'm... I'm sorry... I'll be good, I promise." He sounded on the verge of tears and he hiccuped, drawing his hands shakily around himself in a hug.

“No dark room, we promise. You don’t have to apologize.” Logan reassures softly, extremely concerned about the omega.

"Yes, Logan is right. No dark room. We'll make sure you don't ever go back there. We'll keep your room lit at all times. It's okay, it's okay, you've been so good for both of us. We're really happy at how good you've been." Roman replied back, keeping his voice soft. But he glances at Logan from the rear view mirror with concern. And he could tell that Logan feels exactly the same.

"R-Really? Oh... Okay... Thank you... Master's. Thank you." He sounded very relieved, incredibly relieved actually. "You're...good Master's... Thank you." He really did sound greatful, these Master's were already a lot better then his previous ones. He takes a shaky breath and pulls up his knees to his chest, trying to be small as possible.

Logan is extremely concerned for the omega.

Roman is silent for a bit, sharing Logan's exact worried thoughts. This one...might be worse then Logan's case... And he isn't sure if they can even help him. But he wants to try, he really wants to try. "So... Do you have a name? We can't keep calling you 'omega' or any of that forever."

He snapped out of his thoughts to look ahead at Roman. And he shook his head. "No, Master. I don't. I'm whatever a master wants to call me. Some name me slut... Others name me whore. Would you want to name me one of those?"

Logan’s concern quickly turns to worry. “No...”

"What?!" Roman sounded appalled, and concerned. Mixed with anger and disgust as well. "No! No... No, we are not calling you any of those names. Hell no. What about... Hm... What do you think, lo? You are his master after all."

He flinched when they all said no to that. Guess that's...a bad thing? He swallowed thickly and glanced to logan, waiting for his answer but remaining quiet this time.

“Hm.. Dee maybe?” Logan is extremely worried and nervous currently and that is one of the only names he can think of.

"Dee's a good name! What do you think about that name? We could change it if you don't like it." Roman says, honestly he's as worried if not more then Logan right now. But he's trying to lift up the mood the best he could. Which probably isn't very good but hey, he's trying.

"it's... It's okay... Thank you, Master. My name is dee now, thank you." He says, bowing his head. Really any name Logan chose he would've said it was good to. But this name he rather quite...liked. It had a nice ring to it, he thought.

Logan smiles softly, mentally thanking Roman for trying to lift the room.

Roman could tell that he was thanking him quietly, and he smiled at that. He drove into the parking spot at the hospital and sighed as he stopped the car and unbuckled. "Alright, you carry Dee in lo and uh... I guess I can sign the papers? If you want? And you go with Dee to the back while they uh...do whatever they need to do?" He asked, figuring out the plan.

Dee was quiet and he looked out the window, marveling at just how big the building was. It was way bigger then the warehouse, or well, what he thinks the warehouse looked like from the outside.

Logan nods, getting out of the car and going to Dee’s side.

Dee looks up when he gets out of the car, and he slowly attempts to open his door. Once he did he stood up, but he must've stood up way too quickly cause everything spun around suddenly. He grew pale before collasping. Luckily he fell right on Logan and he had his eyes shut, his breathing was uneven and he took shaky breaths in.

Roman practically jumped out of the car when he saw Dee collasping. "Logan, go in now! I'll sign the papers!" He quickly got in the car to grab his keys, rushing around.

Logan nods, scooping Dee up and rushing into the hospital.

Dee whimpered at the sudden movement, gripping onto him hard like he was afraid of falling. But he also hid his head in his chest, the rush of light hurting his eyelids. He could hear voices but it sounded like it was coming from underwater.

Luckily, nurses saw them and rushed over. A few nurses were right behind and guestered Logan over to one of their back rooms. They were speaking to each other while they told Logan to set him on the bed in the room. "We'll take it from here. Can you wait in the waiting room for us, please?"

Logan goes in the room and places him on the bed. “I-I uh okay.” Logan stammers before hesitatingly leaving the room and going back to the waiting room, extremely worried and nervous.

Dee doesn't know what's going on, as he felt hands and what he thinks is needles on his arm. "Ma... Master...?" He shakily whispers under his breath and manages to open his eyes. Only to see that Logan has left and he sighed, his head resting on the pillow once more.

Roman is filling out the paperwork when he looks up. "What they say?" He asked, holding up his wrist for Logan to scent if he needed it. He knows that calms him down most of the time, but he isn't sure about right now.

“That they were going to take over now.” Logan says as he softly holds Roman wrist, smelling his scent which calms a part of Logan but he is still nervous and worried.

"It's gonna be alright, Lo. They'll fix him. I promise you that they'll fix him. Everything will be alright, okay? Sh..." Roman released calming and reassuring scents for him and rubbed his back. He even started nuzzling his cheek with his own. "They'll fix him, and we will go home and really get to know him. Dee is a great name for him by the way. It's a fantastic name." He cooed, trying to calm him down the best he could.

Logan smiles softly as the calming and reassuring scents work, he nuzzles his cheek back gently.

Roman smiles back, glad that the scents were working in calming him down. He nuzzles his cheek back gently and sent more scents his way. And he sighed softly, honestly very worried and concerned himself. But he tries to hide it for Logan's sake.

About a half hour later a nurse comes out and walks over to Logan. "You're the one with the scarred omega right?"

Logan nods, becoming extremely worried. “Yes, is he okay?”

Roman is silent, waiting and squeezing Logan's hand.

"He is stable for now. We think he'll be okay in the long run, yes. He's going to need lots of treatment though. His blood cell count was...we haven't ever seen it as low as his was. We had to do a blood transfusion, mulitiple IVs, an oxygen tank since he was having troubles breathing on his own. He is... He's pretty sick."

Logan nods, still extremely worried but is relieved to here that they think he will be okay in the long run at least and Roman’s presence alone is helping him stay calm. “Ah...” Logan manages to say. Due to the abuse he went through from that alpha, Logan is quite awkward when it comes to social things and is extremely quiet often only answering with one or two words. It took a while for him to properly talk and open up to Roman, Roman being one of few people Logan can properly talk without only using one or two words.

Roman is extremely relieved, worried but relieved. As long as they think he'll be fine in the long run that's good enough for him. That means that he has a good enough chance to survive. He squeezes Logan's hand reassuringly when he hears the single word, knowing exactly what he wants to say. He knows that Logan can't say more then one word in front of strangers, so he often steps in and talks for him. And he knows what he wants to say just from his expression and his tone of that single word. "We are very grateful. Thank you so so much. We are both just... Thank you. Is there any chance we can see him?"

"Yes, you may. Right this way." She points down the hallway and smiles, "No need to thank me. I'm just doing my job." She smiles and opens up a door.

Logan smiles softly at Roman, silently thanking him. When she opens the door, Logan goes in the room quickly with extreme worry all over his face.

Roman smiles back, squeezing his hand yet again to silently say that he doesn't have to thank him. Then he followed them, he stays a bit behind Logan making sure he gets to Dee first.

There are quite a lot of wires going into both of his arms, including the poles beside him. And loud beeping was coming from the heart monitor. Dee looked paler then before, his sticky hair plastered to his forehead. And a mask was over his mouth and nose. He definitely didn't look good right now at all, he looked close to death with how pale he is. He appeared to be asleep, his eyes closed and was resting luckily.

Logan lets out a breath he didn’t know he was holding when he sees Dee but worry still runs his mind currently.

Roman swallows at the sight of Dee. That...didn't look very good... He looked back at the nurse to see that she's already gone, huh, well... Then he glanced at Logan to see his transfixed stare at Dee. "Hey, hey, he's going to be okay. Sh... I know it's a lot. But he's going to be fine." He hugs Logan tightly and rubs his back. Just then he heard a groan come from the omega and he looks over, watching Dee slowly open his eyes and look around.

Logan hugs back, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath in. Logan then looks immediately at Dee when he heard the groan. “H-How are you feeling, Dee?”

Roman looks over as well, holding in his breath. He draws up a chair besides his bed for Logan and himself. Knowing Logan probably won't want to leave his side for a while, knowing him at least.

Dee stared at them, as if he has to really concentrate as to who they are. He was silent for several moments before he swallowed and finally spoke. "T-Tired... Not.... Not good..." He groaned out, Winching a bit. "Hurts..? Hurts... Master...didn't leave me?" He sounded a bit heartbroken, like he actually thought that Logan was going to leave him here and won't come back.

Logan sits down, once again silently thanking Roman. When Dee speaks Logan feels guilty for leaving the room and making Dee think he was going to abandon him. “N-No, I would never. I will n-never. I promise.”

Ran shakes his head without saying anything, as if silently saying don't mention it. He focuses on Dee and shakes his head, "No... No, we won't leave you. We won't ever leave you. Okay?"

Dee blinked between them and he could see some emotion in Logan's eyes. He couldn't place what it was though... He cleared his throat a bit then sucked in a breath. "Really...? Oh... Okay... I'm sorry, Master... Sorry... I thought that... Won't think that again..." He silently stared at the wall for a moment before blinking and coming to. "What's... this?" He points weakly at the mask, it wasn't hurting and he could obviously still talk, but he didn't know what it was for.

“I-It’s a mask that helps you b-breathe.” Logan explains, gripping Roman’s hand gently to remind himself that Roman is here which calms him.

Roman grips his hand back, gently rubbing his thumb along logans hand. He scoots his chair closer and hugs Logan from the side, still holding his hand. He released calming scents again, wanting Logan to know that he's here and not going to leave him.

"Oh... Oh... Okay... Feels funny... Mhm..." He whispers, his voice slurring together. "Mhm... No... No bad men? Bad...alphas... You better Master... Like you... Don't make me eat pups like old Master's... Pups don't taste very good..." He was obviously high off of some drug. But it was making him calm, maybe a bit too calm.

Logan smiles softly at the scents, it working though when Dee says this some bad memories attack his mind but he manages to stay composed and not curl up in a ball. His alpha never made him eat his pups luckily though he did often kill them in front of Logan or forced Logan to kill them. “N-No bad men a-are here... I-I won’t, I-I promise with all my heart.”

Roman is dead silent at what Dee says. He doesn't even know what to say back to that. But he does feel Logan tighten up so he moves his free hand up to massage his scalp. "There is none of that here, we promise. None of that will happen ever again. Now...try to relax okay? Get some sleep. We'll be here when you wake up, little one. Sh..." Roman goes over to pull the blanket over him some more and sighs softly, going right back to Logan side.

Dee glances between both of them. "Okay... Okay... Uh... Is... Is Master okay?" Even in his daze state he noticed his stuttering and little bit of shakingness. Then he blinks at Roman and nods, "Okay... I'll get some sleep...for you Master... Want to be good...for you... Good slave... Mhm... Good slut..." He yawns, then smiles his eyes dropping closed.

Logan has started to space out remembering every pup, what he wanted to name them, and how they died, trembling and leaning into Roman’s warmth. Logan flinches for second when Roman touches his scrap but when he smells Roman’s scent a half second later he stops and leans into Roman’s hand.

Roman could feel him trembling and could feel his flinch, he removes his hand only to see him leaning into it. So he continued massaging his scalp, and he hugs him close and protectively. "Master is alright, he's okay. It's just been a long day for him. You aren't a slave or a slut. You are Dee. And your the best omega anybody could ask for. Now sh... Sh... Go to sleep." He watches Dee slowly fall asleep. Then he digs in his pockets for his earpods that he always carries with him just in case. He places them in Logan's ears then brings out his phone as well. He scrolls through his music to find the playlist he had downloaded just for when Logan gets his flashbacks. He starts playing it then he gently rocked him side to side, humming softly and releasing his calming scents some more. "You're not there, Logan. You're not there. Sh... Focus on the music. Focus on me." He whispered calmly to him.

Logan’s trembling soon stops after Roman starts playing music and releasing his calming scents. Logan relaxes, slowly hugging Roman gently and tired as flashbacks can be tiring and he didn’t get much sleep last night.

Roman smiles when he could feel his trembling slowly coming to a stop. That's great. That's...really really great. And he smiles even more at feeling him relaxing under his hands. Thank God he downloaded that playlist, it has been a lifesaver more then once. He knew he'd be tired right after this so he looks around the room. And luckily there were a small couch at the far end of the wall. Gently he scoops up Logan in his arms and brings him over to the couch, laying Logan on his chest and grabbing a blanket and pillow from where he was. He laid the blanket on them and puts the pillow behind his head. He places a gentle kiss on Logan's forehead then rubs his back. "Go to sleep, Lo. I'll be here. I won't leave you." He whispers to him, yawning himself. It's been a tiring few hours.

“G-Goodnight, Ro.” Logan yawns softly before falling asleep and gently snuggling Roman in his sleep.

"Goodnight, Lo." He whispers back, and he stays awake for a bit longer. Just to make sure that Logan is asleep and Dee is too. The heart monitor is weirdly calming but at the same time stressful. But he sighs and lays down some more, having his arms gently protective around Logan. And he falls asleep snuggling Logan back and he sleeps peacefully.

Logan sleeps peacefully for several hours until a nightmare attacked his first peaceful sleep in around a month causing him to shift slightly and whimper.

Roman was still sound asleep, but when he heard that whimper subconsciously he held him tighter and released more calming scents. "Mhm... No... Bad...sound... Mhm... Not that... Not..." He mumbled in his sleep then turned his head, he rolled over and held Logan almost like a stuffed animal close to his chest.

Logan relaxes, the nightmare stopping. Logan snuggles closer to Roman chest in his sleep.

Roman snuggled him, wrapping his arms and legs around him in his sleep. He immediately went back to sleep once Logan snuggled up to him, even subconsciously knowing that he's fine now.

Just as they were about to go back to sleep Dee's heart monitor started beeping more intensely. And the sounds of the bed rocking back and forth can be heard. Followed by what sounded like crying and mumbling incoherent words.

Logan immediately wakes up, jumping in surprise and falls off the couch before looking at Dee, panicking.

Dee is kicking out at something, his head shaking back and forth and sobbing. Though he was clearly asleep, just having a nightmare by the looks of things. He was doing that for a moment before he suddenly screams at the top of his lungs and jump up, his eyes open with a panic and his breathing is heavy. He brings up his knees to his chest and sobs quietly into his knees.

Roman was starting to wake up when he heard the loud thuds, but at the loud scream he was instantly awake. He snapped awake and nearly fell ontop of logan. But he manages to catch himself and look around to where the screaming came from. Only to see it was Dee who was crying and shaking. He frowns and leans over to Logan to take out the earpods, then he slowly walked over to Dee. "Hey... Hey, it's okay... It's alright. Sh..." He cooed. But Dee only jumped away from him, and looked at him with pure terror.

Logan gets up from the floor slowly and carefully approaches Dee slowly. “Hey.. Dee... it’s okay... you’re safe...”

Roman slowly backs away then, he knows if he keeps going towards him that would only make him panic more.

Dee whips over when he hears Logan and sucks in a breath. His eyes are unfocused for a bit and he just stares at Logan. Until he shakes his head to clear it out. Slowly he registers what he's saying and he hiccups. "M-Master...?" He managed to say, his body shaking. "I... I... N-No... Not... Mhm..." He whispers, shaking his head and curling back into a ball.

“Did you have a nightmare, Dee?” Logan says softly, slowly moving closer to Dee.

"Y-Yes... M-Master..." He hiccuped, hiding his face in his knees the best he could. Though the tugging on the wires were making it hard to do. But he ignored it and kept tugging, sobbing quietly. He seemed to be forcing himself to calm down, probably from his nails digging into his legs so hard that it's causing it to bleed. But it's making himself snap back to reality, which is what he wanted. "Sorry... Sorry... Stupid... M' stupid... I'll... Go back to sleep now... Very.. very... Very sorry...to wake you up.. very... I..." He sucks in a harsh breath then forced himself to lay back down.

“Hey, it’s okay... I’m sorry you had a nightmare... You aren’t stupid.. it’s not your fault, Dee...” Logan speaks softly.

Dee hesitantly glanced at him, still tears pouring down his cheeks but he shakes his head. He immediately wipes it all away and digs his nails into his face to keep from crying some more. "I... Not... Not okay... Not... I.... Why...aren't you... whipping me... Master? I don't.. I... I... Stupid... Stupid...slut... Not..." He takes a shaky breath, "Every night...have nightmares... It's fine... It's... It's okay..."

“You aren’t a s-slut. You are Dee and you are amazing. I’m sorry you have nightmares every night.... I do too.” Logan is extremely worried about Dee.

Dee immediately shook his head, his name now is Dee of course. But he isn't amazing. He is anything but. He's a slut, that's what he is... Though at his whisper he glanced up at him, few bits of blood coming from his cheeks. "Master...has nightmares... N-Not... Not possible... Not... Lying... Lying... Trick... Master's trick... Lie... Master's lie..." He shook his head again and brought up the blanket over his head. "Lie..." He whispered, hiding himself in a tight ball.

Roman glanced over at Logan and bit his lip nervously. Logan wasn't like this at all back when he saved him. Sure, he did hide away when he had nightmares but... He didn't hurt himself or act like this. He wasn't sure what to do.

Logan doesn’t know what to do too. “I can promise you that I am not lying...” Worry and Concern overwhelming Logan as he speaks softly.

Dee could hear the worry in his voice, and it's very clear now. He at first didn't even know what that emotion was. Until he had to realize it sounded a lot like the others when they're being taken away by the alphas. Worry... And fear of course. He swallows and slowly peeks out to look at him. "Master's...don't...get nightmares... They... They give it..." He hiccuped, "You... I... I'm... I'm confused..." He admitted slowly as it was clear that his hands were trembling against his cheeks.

“Not all Masters are like that... I-I used to have a M-Master like that.... B-But now I-I’m free.” Logan says as he slowly ends up next to Dee and carefully and slowly tries to lower Dee’s hands from his face.

"You.... You... You...did?" He had to repeat himself as he tried to focus on his words rather then his shaking and ever growing panic in his mind. "How... You... I... Huh?" He asked, completely confused as to how he had a Master before too. But he's a Master... How does that...make sense... When he moves towards his hands he whimpered and shut his eyes, flinching violently from his hands. Only to open his eyes and look at him, his hands moving with his movements.

Logan slowly and gently moves his hands down away from his face. “I’m sorry for scaring you, I don’t want you to hurt yourself... Yes, I did. I’m sorry you had to go through all that.”

Dee doesn't open his eyes at all while he has hold of his hands. He keeps whimpering and holding his breath, expecting to get hit from him. Ever so slowly he opens his eyes once he moves his hands down then blinks. "You... Bad...hurt... Bad..." He finally sucks in a gasp of air and hugs himself. He doesn't know how to handle of this. That he's apologizing to him. That he really had a Master before too. None of this makes much sense to him. "I... I... I don't... I..." He shuts his eyes again and shakes his head, he was still shaking but it wasn't nearly as bad as before. And his breathing has gone down now that he's thinking of what Logan's saying. "Sorry...? Sorry... Sorry... Wake up bad... Sorry." He mumbled.

“It’s okay. I’m sorry for startling you. I was going to wake up from a nightmare soon most likely so you kinda saved me from another nightmare. Thank you.” Logan says softly.

"You...were? I uh... Um... I... Huh?" He definitely seemed confused at the thanks, he's never been...thanked before. He stares at him as if he's crazy, blinking and not saying anything else. He glances over at Roman to make sure he wasn't crazy and no... He's nodding along to what he's saying. Then he glanced back at Logan, he didn't know how to respond to that at all. Though, he guessed it's good that he...sorta saved him from another nightmare...he suppose?

Logan smiles softly at Dee.

"I... I... M' sorry? I uh... I'm... Why are...you saying sorry...to me? I'm... I'm confused... I'm... Why... I don't... Understand?" He stuttered, sounding very confused and lost. "Why... How... You had a Master... You..." He swallowed thickly, raising up his hands again but to just wipe away the tears some more so he could see. "Go...back to bed... Master... Sorry..." He knows he won't be able to get any more sleep for the rest of the night now though. Once he has a nightmare he normally can't fall asleep again, no matter how hard he tries.

Logan is extremely worried. “I want to make sure you are as okay as you can be currently....”

Dee stares at him, confused beyond belief. "Why...?" Why does he care if he's okay? Or as okay as he could be? Why... That doesn't make any sense to him. Why would a Master bother to make sure he's okay? This doesn't make any sense to him...

Logan has concern and worry all over his face and body language.

"B-Because we care about you." Roman finally speaks up, he wanted Logan to take this over since he seems to trust him more. But he knew he won't know what to say back to that. "Because... We... Logan here...as your Master...wants you to be healthy, mentally and physically... He isn't like your other Master's... He much rather prefer you to be healthy for him..." He mumbled, hoping he was saying the right thing.

Dee glances over at Roman and blinks, then stared at Logan. "Want me...to be healthy...?" He slowly comprehends that finding it really strange. "Oh... Oh... That's... Uh... Okay?"

Logan nods, that being exactly what he wanted to say but just couldn’t figure out how to say, silently thanking Roman.

Dee is silent for a moment, "For...breeding? Gonna...breed me? Is that why...you want me healthy? Am I...a breed... slave...?" He asked hesitantly, course he won't mind being a breeding slave. It's better then being a normal slave like he was.

Roman frowns at Dee and shakes his head, "No, no, Hun. We aren't going to touch you like that. Never. Unless you want to. And only if you positively sure. But that's not for a long time. We want you healthy cause we like to see you happy. We want to help you in any way we can. I think... We should walk around a bit, yeah? Since I don't think any of us will get any more sleep." He glances at logan, "I can go get a wheelchair for him?" He offered.

Logan is stunned by Dee’s words and has no clue what to say. When Roman offers to get the wheelchair he slowly shakes his head no. “N-No I’ll go get it...” Before going to find a wheelchair.

Dee glanced between them, confused as to why they want him happy. But he doesn't say anything. Instead he watches him closely, and watches Logan go out and get a wheelchair silently. He feels like he done something wrong, or maybe said something wrong? He isn't sure...

Roman watches him with worry. "Hang on one moment, okay? Be right back." He said to Dee before stepping out and following Logan. "Lo? Lo? Are you okay? You were stuttering and shaking back there." He says with worry.

Logan is shaking as memorys pound into his mind and tears flow down his face. He slowly shakes his head no before hugging Roman.

As Roman got closer to him he could see that he is clearly shaking. And he instantly grew even more worried, he knew that was too much for him. Before he could even say anything he had Logan right on his chest. He blinked in shock for a moment before hugging him back. "Would you like the music back on, Lo?" He whispered to him, rubbing his back soothingly and releasing calming scents.

Logan nods, holding onto Roman as if if he lets go Roman would disappear. The scents help greatly in helping Logan calm down.

Roman nodded, luckily he still has the earpods from earlier. He placed them in Logan's ears gently then resumed the music from last time. "Im right here. Im right here. I won't leave you. I've got you. You're safe, logie. Your safe. I've got you." He whispered to him as the music played, releasing some more calming scents and gently rocking him. It...might not have been a good idea having Logan take care of this omega... He sighs inwardly, trying to think up of some plan for helping both of them out.

Logan soon relaxes, calming down completely. His shaking is now barely noticeable. “I’m sorry.” Logan whispers softly.

Roman is relieved that he's relaxed and calmed now. He's very relieved... He continues to rub his back though, keeping him close. When he hears the apologetic whisper he immediately shakes his head. "There's no need to be. Don't be sorry. It's alright, that was a lot, I understand. Are... Are you sure you'll be able to handle this though, Logan? I... I don't like seeing you having this many episodes..." He trails off worringly. He doesn't want to pressure him out of this, but he's really worried about him.

Logan thinks for a second. “I-I don’t know....” Logan admits. “I don’t know w-what to do...”

"Hey, hey, it's okay. Let's just take it one step at a time, yeah? I'll answer his questions from now on, is that okay? Let's get a wheelchair for him and take him outside, since I don't think he's had much fresh air a lot in his life. And just...relax. How does that sound?" He asked, moving back to smile gently at him. He wants to make sure that Logan is going to be okay with everything, but he's also very worried about him.

Logan nods. “T-That sounds good.”

A lone omega runs down an alleyway, he didn't have a single idea where he was going or where he even was. His only thought was to run. He only wore a thong and a collar with a leash that was dragging behind him, clearly a sign that he was a slave to some alpha. His hands were tied and he had a muzzle strapped to his mouth. And was covered in scars from head to toe, half of his body being burned by flames. And he was in heat, heavily in heat.

Logan, a beta, had been walking to a bookstore when he smelt the lone omega in heat and could tell something was wrong. Logan quickly figured out where the scent was coming from and ran into the alleyway to help.

The smell of fear was coming off in waves from this one omega, plus the smell of heat. It was strong enough to attract anybody nearby really. But he didn't know that. He was too terrified to even think properly. The only thoughts going through his mind was to run away. Run before his masters catch him. When he saw somebody running towards him he froze, trying to step back only to fall on the pavement. He whimpered and whined, sobbing loudly and pleading. His arms and hands over his face to protect himself and his entire body trembling and violently shaking. He wasn't even sure if he was breathing or not, judging by how badly his chest was caving in it definitely didn't feel like he was. He could smell the distant scent that came from him but he couldn't concentrate long enough to figure out that he was a beta.

Logan rushed to his side. “Hey, calm down. I’m not going to hurt you. Can you tell me what is going on?”

He gave a yelp of surprise when he rushed over to him, he sobbed shutting his eyes in fear. Then he shook his head, tears streaming down his eyes and he looked so scared and terrified. Just then he heard what sounded like footsteps coming down the other side of the alleyway and he gave a muffled scream, he could recongize that scent anywhere. He was frozen in fear though, his eyes even wider. He's going to die... He's going to die... They're gonna kill him. It's all over.

Logan gets the sense that whoever was making those footsteps isn’t good. “I’m going to pick you up, sorry if it hurts.” Logan says before picking the omega up, using adrenaline he starts to run out of the alleyway.

He makes a tiny noise before he's suddenly picked up. He didn't even hear what Logan had just said so when he's suddenly picked up he nearly jumped so badly he just about fell from his arms. Luckily he didn't and he was in shock to find him running away. What...is he doing?! He looked behind to see that luckily they got out of there just in time before the alphas had gotten to where they just were. His gaze landed on Logan and he whimpered behind the muzzle, holding his hands close to his chest. He was still scared, this beta could be taking him to a group of alphas for all he knows.

Logan keeps running, heading back quickly to his apartment. He hopes that his memory of one his roommate who happens to be an alpha saying he was heading out is correct. As much as he trusts him he thinks the omega isn’t going to be comfortable with an alpha nearby currently.

The omega was crying the entire way, scared of what was to happen and become of him. What if Master's follow him? What if he's heading to New Master's? What if he's going to hurt him himself? There's so many what ifs and he's so terrified right now. He didn't stop crying even when Logan got into the apartment and had closed the door. By then his hands were raised to protect himself while he was crying. His cheeks covered in tears and his eyes red and puffy.

Logan quickly locks the door before placing him on the couch gently. Logan carefully removes the muzzle, speaking softly to him. “Hey, you’re safe. I promise that no one is going to hurt you. I’m trying to help you.

He gave a cry when he was placed on the couch before stopping and looking down, not harmful? Not harmful. Okay. Then he flinched and whimpered, crying out when he moved to touch him. Only to realize he's taking off the muzzle. There were obvious signs that it's been on his mouth for a very long time, his peeling and blistering skin is anything to go by. When he opened his mouth the other could see that his tongue is completely missing. He hiccuped and curled up against the couch, shaking his head. "M-Master... Master... Master... He... You... I... I can't... No... I..." He stuttered over himself, his breathing quick. He was obviously too scared to even make much sense. The thong basically did nothing and he was making a small mess on the couch by his slick.

Logan quickly grabs some of his own spare clothes. “I need you to try to calm down a bit. I have some spare clothes you can borrow.” Logan is worried about this omega. From a past relationship he knew a small bit about how the omega is most likely feeling right now.

"N-No... No... Need... Need Master's...permission... I can't... Get in trouble... Trouble bad.... Trouble... I... I can't get... No.... No clothes..." He frantically shakes his head, looking at the clothes as if it'll burn him, which might not be far from the truth judging by how many scars he has. He tries to take deep breaths in, but it was so hard when his panicked thoughts are going so crazy right now. "I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." He whispered, shaking. "Gonna... Gonna...sell me? Take...to Master's or... Or... I..."

“It’s okay. I’m got going to any of that. I’m to call an ambulance and police, they are trained for situations like this and it’s going to help much better than I can on my own.”

"I... But... What.... They'll..." He takes another shaky breath to try and concentrate on talking. "Master's... Master's...in... Master's are in...work for police... Alphas work...for police... Black uniforms... Black uniforms with handcuffs... I think that's police... Will get me... They will get me." He says shakily, trying to calm down the best he could. Luckily it was getting easier and easier as he looked around the place and as time went by, he thought if he was gonna sell him he would be calling around already.

Logan is very worried by this. “Okay, let me think for a second.” Logan begins to think about what he should do, assessing every reasonable option.

He shakily nods, "A-Are you... Are you...my Master now...?" He asked hesitantly, then shut up so he could think. He was quiet, staring at him then everything around them taking the place in. He didn't understand what most of these things do, in all honesty... Even though he was curious he stayed perfectly still, not wanting to move unless told to. He didn't want to test the patience of this beta.

"Hello?" A voice entered the room, the front door being opened and the sound of keys being jangled could be heard.

Logan immediately chokes on his own tongue when he says that. “N-No. uh, um.” Logan is seriously caught off guard by that question.

"I-I... Huh...? But you...saved me...? You own...me now? I'm... I'm confused?" He stared at him, not understanding why he denied it. Either he is his new master or...he's being sold off... But he said no to being sold off so he's...really confused right now. Just as he was starting to finally calm down the door had opened and he jumped up. And his eyes instantly widened in fear when he smelt the alpha smell.

"Lo? You're back already too? Turns out that theater place was a ditch, such a shame too." Roman walked over to the living room and he froze at the scene before him. He was about ready to take off his bag when he spotted the nearly naked man on their couch. And he was definitely in heat. His nose winkled and he glanced at Logan. "Uh... Lo... Care to explain why a nearly naked omega that in heavy heat is currently in our apartment? Did you order a prostitute or something?"

“On my way to the bookstore I found this omega running from someone who he calls ‘Master’ who is most likely someone who has abused him and might kill him. So, no I have not ordered a prostitute.”

"Ah... Well, that's a shame. Cause my hormones are going bonkers right now. He..." Roman took a moment to process everything he just said. He glanced back at Logan, "Is it like... with you?" He asked, knowing about Logan's past. He was the one who helped him break from his alphas control after all.

The omega was dead quiet, he stared at Roman in pure horror. Is this who he's going to give him too?! He couldn't even ask any questions, all that came out was little peeps and hiccups.

“Yes, it is like that.” Logan can sense that the omega is more than terrified so he turns. “He’s not going to hurt you. I’m not selling you or letting you get hurt. He is a great friend of mine, I know him well and he is isn’t going to take advantage of you, I promise.

"Oh... Gotcha..." Roman takes a deep breath, trying to remember what he did with logan back then. Be a rock and ground him. Comfort him... Okay. Very slowly he kneeled down so he wasn't towering over the quivering omega. And he forced himself to push back his instincts on breeding this Omega. He clearly doesn't need that. And very slowly he scoots a bit forward so he was kneeling before the omega. And he let out calming scents. "I promise i won't ever hurt you, alright? I promise on my life. Can you take a breath for me? Focus on my voice and my scent. Sh... Sh... Breathe..."

The omega didn't know what was happening. But when Logan turned to him he looked over. Only to swallow and let out a few more peeps, but he seemed a bit calmer at that. Not take advantage... He jumped when Roman moved, only to blink when he kneeled down to the ground. He didn't know how to even respond to this. He stared at Roman then at Logan, being completely baffled and confused. "W-What...? But I...need a Master.... Need... I can't... Please? Can I have a Master? Please? I can't... I don't know...what to do with myself... Please..." He begged to them, clearly conditioned to needing a Master for everything.

Logan sighs softly, knowing this mindset more than he would like to. “You don’t need a Master, I promise. What they have done to you is wrong and what they have told you about needing a Master is false.” Logan speaks calmly and softly. Letting out calming scents like Roman but they are definitely not as strong as Roman’s due to some events from his past.

"I... I... N-No... I... I need..." He stuttered, shaking his head with tears in his eyes. He sounded devasted, like somebody told him his dog just died. He put his head in his hands and sobbed loudly once more, crying as if he lost something precious to him. "I... No... Not wrong... Not bad... No... They weren't... N-No... Please... Please..." He sobbed, "I need... A master.... Please!!" He begged, he looked around and noticed the wall behind him. He stood up and started slamming his head against the wall with enough force to make the wall shake. "I'm bad! Bad! Bad!!"

"I'll be your Master!" Roman blurted out, he didn't want to, obviously, but he didn't know how else to calm him down.

Logan quickly puts his arm in between him and the wall. “Calm down. You aren’t bad. If you need a Master, I will be your Master.” Logan says trying to keep his voice steady and calm.

"Are you sure, Logan? He... He's worse off then you were... And..." Roman said nervously, whispering to him. He isn't certain about Logan taking care of him, it might trigger some memories...

He immediately stops when he puts an arm between him. Then freezes when they both shouted that they were gonna be his master's. He looked back and stared between them. Then he took a shaky breath and nods, he stands perfectly still as some blood trickle down his head. "Okay... Master's... I'm... I'm sorry... I'm very sorry..." He sat back down, his head down and he immediately calmed down.

“I... I am not completely sure...” Logan whispers back, admitting he isn’t completely comfortable with taking care of him as he already close to an ‘episode’. Logan quickly gets a first aid kit before starting to treat the wounds on the omega the best he can.

"Okay, let me take care of him. He'll listen to me more anyways since I'm an alpha. He might question later why he's listening to a beta. It's alright." Roman whispers to him, then moves out of his way. Only to help him care for the wound on the omegas head. "Or do you think we should let him choose? I... I don't really know. You gravitated towards me but that might just be cause I kept getting in your way back then..."

He sat perfectly still while they tended to his wound, not even moving a bit.

“I don’t really know either. I think we should let him choose so he can get used to choosing for himself easier?...” Logan whispers as he and Roman care for the wound.

"Yeah, thats a good idea. It'll be a nice first step to getting him used to that. Jesus, can he take one of your heat suppressors first? It is so hard trying to concentrate with that heat smell." He says with a low growl in his voice, but he shakes his head and groans.

Logan nods, quickly getting one as he notes that he’s running low on them before returning and crouching in front of the omega. “Hey, I need you to take this. It doesn’t hurt, I promise.”

Roman scoots a bit back once he rushes off to compose himself. He knows it'll take about twenty minutes for it to really take effect but at least he'll have taken it.

He slowly looks up once he was addressed and he looks down at the pill. He debates on whether he should take it or not. Before swallowing his fear and gets the pill, quickly swallowing it dry. He is scared of taking it of course, since his master's did gave them drugs a lot, but he didn't want to anger any of them either.

“They aren’t harmful, they help a lot in heat. They also help my friend, Roman, keep control of himself and his instincts better.” Logan says trying to reassure him that he is safe.

"Okay, Master... Thank you. I'm sorry I hurt other Master from my heat... Why isn't he breeding me...? Or you?" He asked, finally looking up at both of them. Then he bites his lip, "Sorry for asking questions... Am I allowed to ask questions, Master's?"

Roman shivered at how dull his voice sounded. Yep... Exactly like how Logan sounded... "Hey, little omega." He scoots closer to him, keeping his hands down onto the rug. "We have a question for you. And yes, you may ask as many questions as your heart wants. You wont get in trouble by it. No question is dumb. And no breeding, we don't do breeding here. Unless you want it." He takes a breath, "Would you want me as your master or Logan here? You get to choose who you want to follow, is that alright?"

“It is not your fault.” Logan shivers with Roman, remembering when he was like this. Logan nods, agreeing with Roman and looking in between the omega and Roman slowly.

He was silent, looking between both of them. He...gets to choose? That's...really strange. Sometimes he does have two or three Master's at a time. So this is strange. And he is scared at picking the wrong one and the other being angry at him. As he debates this he bites his lip nervously hugging himself. Very slowly he points at Logan, he trusted him more then Roman right now. Especially since he's a beta. Then he quickly looked at Roman, only to flinch and look away.

"Hey, hey, that's good. Thank you for choosing and answering us. Here," He gets up to go to the kitchen, and he comes back with half a cookie. "A treat for being so good for us so far." He gives him the cookie and luckily he takes it, but he glances at Logan. "You're gonna be up for this?"

Logan nods hesitantly. “Y-Yes.”

Roman obviously hears his stutter and he smiles softly, "Come here." He stands up and backs away so the omega won't think he's towering over him or anything. And he hugs Logan, "You can do this, okay? I know you can. You've come so so far. If it ever gets too much you can tell him to stay in your room and come to mine, okay? Or tell him to listen and follow me. I won't mind it at all." He whispers to his ear.

He glances at the cookie and sniffs it hesitantly, he's never seen this before... Strange... It doesn't smell bad or rotten so that's good... He slowly takes a nibble from the cookie but once he tastes the flavor his eyes widened. He shovels the entire thing in his mouth and happily chews it, loving the taste. "Thank you!" He says around his mouthful.

Logan hugs back, nodding softly.

Roman gives a gentle squeeze, "So... We should probably take this guy to the hospital first. He looks pretty...thin and sickly... He might have to stay overnight just by the looks of him... You get him in the car and I pack a bag?" He asked, thinking that was probably the best course of action.

Logan nods, turning to help the omega. “We’re going to get you to a hospital, okay?”

"Hos...pital....? What's that, Master?" He asked, taking his hand a bit shakily to stand up. He got dizzy when he stood up though and had to grip on the couch to keep steady and not fall. Taking a few shaky breaths he tried to stop the room from spinning.

Roman rushed into his room to grab his back and start packing.

Logan helps him stand shifting him so he is supporting the omega. “It’s a place where doctors work and they help heal sick and injuried people. They are good.”

He whimpered when he moved him, thinking he was going to toss him to the ground and force him to move. But instead he blinked and was shocked to see him actually supporting him. Uh... "O-Oh... No... No previous... Master's...? No...cops?" He asked shakily, his head hurting the more he moved. But he forced himself to keep going for Logan.

Logan nods, quickly picking him up carefully and softly. “None of that, I promise.” Logan speaks softly.

"O-Okay... Thank you, Master." He squeaked and tried to hold in a small scream when he picked him up. But he took a shaky breath to calm down. "I... You're...a better Master already... I... I like you more..." He whispered under his breath as he held on to him, blinking at the sunlight once they got outside and hissing softly. "M-Master... Other Master isn't mad that I choose you, right? You're not mad either?"

“Neither of us are mad, I promise.” Logan says as he places the omega in the car.

"O-Okay... Okay... Thank you, Master. I'm sorry for punishing myself. I'm very sorry." He says, sitting down in the car very stock still. He wanted to be good for his new master after all.

Roman came jogging over with a bag, "Alright, I got snacks and a change of clothes for all of us. Here's I assume the clothes you tried to give him? It was laying on the couch so..." He gave Logan the clothes, "Then toothbrush, toothpaste, uh... I don't think we need anything else... I'll come back tomorrow if he does need to stay."

Logan nods, taking the clothes. “Okay, good. thank you, Roman”

"Of course, man, of course." Roman gives him a quick hug before going over to place the bag in the truck. "I'll drive!" He says as he hops into the drivers seat and started up the car to turn on the heat as it was a bit chilly outside.

The omega watched them curiously, not having an idea what is going on. As the car started he jumped in surprise before resting back down, shifting side to side a bit nervously.

Logan sits next to the omega just in case he needs help. “You’re safe. Nothing is going to hurt you now.” Logan reassures the omega softly.

He glanced over at him once he sat next to him, blinking as to why he did that. And he stared at him at his reassuring words, just staring for several moments. Before giving a nod, "O-Okay... I uh... Okay..." He mumbles, and he didn't sound like he was convinced at all. But he agrees anyways.

"We'll both protect you, alright? Trust me. Your part of our pack now, so you don't have to worry about a thing. Just focus on getting better and we'll do the rest." Roman said as he started pulling out then driving along.

Logan nods. “Yes, Roman is correct.”

He is silent, then glances away. "A...pack?" His voice trembles and he swallows thickly. "I... No... No dark room? I... I don't....want to go back... to dark room... I'm... I'm sorry... I'll be good, I promise." He sounded on the verge of tears and he hiccuped, drawing his hands shakily around himself in a hug.

“No dark room, we promise. You don’t have to apologize.” Logan reassures softly, extremely concerned about the omega.

"Yes, Logan is right. No dark room. We'll make sure you don't ever go back there. We'll keep your room lit at all times. It's okay, it's okay, you've been so good for both of us. We're really happy at how good you've been." Roman replied back, keeping his voice soft. But he glances at Logan from the rear view mirror with concern. And he could tell that Logan feels exactly the same.

"R-Really? Oh... Okay... Thank you... Master's. Thank you." He sounded very relieved, incredibly relieved actually. "You're...good Master's... Thank you." He really did sound greatful, these Master's were already a lot better then his previous ones. He takes a shaky breath and pulls up his knees to his chest, trying to be small as possible.

Logan is extremely concerned for the omega.

Roman is silent for a bit, sharing Logan's exact worried thoughts. This one...might be worse then Logan's case... And he isn't sure if they can even help him. But he wants to try, he really wants to try. "So... Do you have a name? We can't keep calling you 'omega' or any of that forever."

He snapped out of his thoughts to look ahead at Roman. And he shook his head. "No, Master. I don't. I'm whatever a master wants to call me. Some name me slut... Others name me whore. Would you want to name me one of those?"

Logan’s concern quickly turns to worry. “No...”

"What?!" Roman sounded appalled, and concerned. Mixed with anger and disgust as well. "No! No... No, we are not calling you any of those names. Hell no. What about... Hm... What do you think, lo? You are his master after all."

He flinched when they all said no to that. Guess that's...a bad thing? He swallowed thickly and glanced to logan, waiting for his answer but remaining quiet this time.

“Hm.. Dee maybe?” Logan is extremely worried and nervous currently and that is one of the only names he can think of.

"Dee's a good name! What do you think about that name? We could change it if you don't like it." Roman says, honestly he's as worried if not more then Logan right now. But he's trying to lift up the mood the best he could. Which probably isn't very good but hey, he's trying.

"it's... It's okay... Thank you, Master. My name is dee now, thank you." He says, bowing his head. Really any name Logan chose he would've said it was good to. But this name he rather quite...liked. It had a nice ring to it, he thought.

Logan smiles softly, mentally thanking Roman for trying to lift the room.

Roman could tell that he was thanking him quietly, and he smiled at that. He drove into the parking spot at the hospital and sighed as he stopped the car and unbuckled. "Alright, you carry Dee in lo and uh... I guess I can sign the papers? If you want? And you go with Dee to the back while they uh...do whatever they need to do?" He asked, figuring out the plan.

Dee was quiet and he looked out the window, marveling at just how big the building was. It was way bigger then the warehouse, or well, what he thinks the warehouse looked like from the outside.

Logan nods, getting out of the car and going to Dee’s side.

Dee looks up when he gets out of the car, and he slowly attempts to open his door. Once he did he stood up, but he must've stood up way too quickly cause everything spun around suddenly. He grew pale before collasping. Luckily he fell right on Logan and he had his eyes shut, his breathing was uneven and he took shaky breaths in.

Roman practically jumped out of the car when he saw Dee collasping. "Logan, go in now! I'll sign the papers!" He quickly got in the car to grab his keys, rushing around.

Logan nods, scooping Dee up and rushing into the hospital.

Dee whimpered at the sudden movement, gripping onto him hard like he was afraid of falling. But he also hid his head in his chest, the rush of light hurting his eyelids. He could hear voices but it sounded like it was coming from underwater.

Luckily, nurses saw them and rushed over. A few nurses were right behind and guestered Logan over to one of their back rooms. They were speaking to each other while they told Logan to set him on the bed in the room. "We'll take it from here. Can you wait in the waiting room for us, please?"

Logan goes in the room and places him on the bed. “I-I uh okay.” Logan stammers before hesitatingly leaving the room and going back to the waiting room, extremely worried and nervous.

Dee doesn't know what's going on, as he felt hands and what he thinks is needles on his arm. "Ma... Master...?" He shakily whispers under his breath and manages to open his eyes. Only to see that Logan has left and he sighed, his head resting on the pillow once more.

Roman is filling out the paperwork when he looks up. "What they say?" He asked, holding up his wrist for Logan to scent if he needed it. He knows that calms him down most of the time, but he isn't sure about right now.

“That they were going to take over now.” Logan says as he softly holds Roman wrist, smelling his scent which calms a part of Logan but he is still nervous and worried.

"It's gonna be alright, Lo. They'll fix him. I promise you that they'll fix him. Everything will be alright, okay? Sh..." Roman released calming and reassuring scents for him and rubbed his back. He even started nuzzling his cheek with his own. "They'll fix him, and we will go home and really get to know him. Dee is a great name for him by the way. It's a fantastic name." He cooed, trying to calm him down the best he could.

Logan smiles softly as the calming and reassuring scents work, he nuzzles his cheek back gently.

Roman smiles back, glad that the scents were working in calming him down. He nuzzles his cheek back gently and sent more scents his way. And he sighed softly, honestly very worried and concerned himself. But he tries to hide it for Logan's sake.

About a half hour later a nurse comes out and walks over to Logan. "You're the one with the scarred omega right?"

Logan nods, becoming extremely worried. “Yes, is he okay?”

Roman is silent, waiting and squeezing Logan's hand.

"He is stable for now. We think he'll be okay in the long run, yes. He's going to need lots of treatment though. His blood cell count was...we haven't ever seen it as low as his was. We had to do a blood transfusion, mulitiple IVs, an oxygen tank since he was having troubles breathing on his own. He is... He's pretty sick."

Logan nods, still extremely worried but is relieved to here that they think he will be okay in the long run at least and Roman’s presence alone is helping him stay calm. “Ah...” Logan manages to say. Due to the abuse he went through from that alpha, Logan is quite awkward when it comes to social things and is extremely quiet often only answering with one or two words. It took a while for him to properly talk and open up to Roman, Roman being one of few people Logan can properly talk without only using one or two words.

Roman is extremely relieved, worried but relieved. As long as they think he'll be fine in the long run that's good enough for him. That means that he has a good enough chance to survive. He squeezes Logan's hand reassuringly when he hears the single word, knowing exactly what he wants to say. He knows that Logan can't say more then one word in front of strangers, so he often steps in and talks for him. And he knows what he wants to say just from his expression and his tone of that single word. "We are very grateful. Thank you so so much. We are both just... Thank you. Is there any chance we can see him?"

"Yes, you may. Right this way." She points down the hallway and smiles, "No need to thank me. I'm just doing my job." She smiles and opens up a door.

Logan smiles softly at Roman, silently thanking him. When she opens the door, Logan goes in the room quickly with extreme worry all over his face.

Roman smiles back, squeezing his hand yet again to silently say that he doesn't have to thank him. Then he followed them, he stays a bit behind Logan making sure he gets to Dee first.

There are quite a lot of wires going into both of his arms, including the poles beside him. And loud beeping was coming from the heart monitor. Dee looked paler then before, his sticky hair plastered to his forehead. And a mask was over his mouth and nose. He definitely didn't look good right now at all, he looked close to death with how pale he is. He appeared to be asleep, his eyes closed and was resting luckily.

Logan lets out a breath he didn’t know he was holding when he sees Dee but worry still runs his mind currently.

Roman swallows at the sight of Dee. That...didn't look very good... He looked back at the nurse to see that she's already gone, huh, well... Then he glanced at Logan to see his transfixed stare at Dee. "Hey, hey, he's going to be okay. Sh... I know it's a lot. But he's going to be fine." He hugs Logan tightly and rubs his back. Just then he heard a groan come from the omega and he looks over, watching Dee slowly open his eyes and look around.

Logan hugs back, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath in. Logan then looks immediately at Dee when he heard the groan. “H-How are you feeling, Dee?”

Roman looks over as well, holding in his breath. He draws up a chair besides his bed for Logan and himself. Knowing Logan probably won't want to leave his side for a while, knowing him at least.

Dee stared at them, as if he has to really concentrate as to who they are. He was silent for several moments before he swallowed and finally spoke. "T-Tired... Not.... Not good..." He groaned out, Winching a bit. "Hurts..? Hurts... Master...didn't leave me?" He sounded a bit heartbroken, like he actually thought that Logan was going to leave him here and won't come back.

Logan sits down, once again silently thanking Roman. When Dee speaks Logan feels guilty for leaving the room and making Dee think he was going to abandon him. “N-No, I would never. I will n-never. I promise.”

Ran shakes his head without saying anything, as if silently saying don't mention it. He focuses on Dee and shakes his head, "No... No, we won't leave you. We won't ever leave you. Okay?"

Dee blinked between them and he could see some emotion in Logan's eyes. He couldn't place what it was though... He cleared his throat a bit then sucked in a breath. "Really...? Oh... Okay... I'm sorry, Master... Sorry... I thought that... Won't think that again..." He silently stared at the wall for a moment before blinking and coming to. "What's... this?" He points weakly at the mask, it wasn't hurting and he could obviously still talk, but he didn't know what it was for.

“I-It’s a mask that helps you b-breathe.” Logan explains, gripping Roman’s hand gently to remind himself that Roman is here which calms him.

Roman grips his hand back, gently rubbing his thumb along logans hand. He scoots his chair closer and hugs Logan from the side, still holding his hand. He released calming scents again, wanting Logan to know that he's here and not going to leave him.

"Oh... Oh... Okay... Feels funny... Mhm..." He whispers, his voice slurring together. "Mhm... No... No bad men? Bad...alphas... You better Master... Like you... Don't make me eat pups like old Master's... Pups don't taste very good..." He was obviously high off of some drug. But it was making him calm, maybe a bit too calm.

Logan smiles softly at the scents, it working though when Dee says this some bad memories attack his mind but he manages to stay composed and not curl up in a ball. His alpha never made him eat his pups luckily though he did often kill them in front of Logan or forced Logan to kill them. “N-No bad men a-are here... I-I won’t, I-I promise with all my heart.”

Roman is dead silent at what Dee says. He doesn't even know what to say back to that. But he does feel Logan tighten up so he moves his free hand up to massage his scalp. "There is none of that here, we promise. None of that will happen ever again. Now...try to relax okay? Get some sleep. We'll be here when you wake up, little one. Sh..." Roman goes over to pull the blanket over him some more and sighs softly, going right back to Logan side.

Dee glances between both of them. "Okay... Okay... Uh... Is... Is Master okay?" Even in his daze state he noticed his stuttering and little bit of shakingness. Then he blinks at Roman and nods, "Okay... I'll get some sleep...for you Master... Want to be good...for you... Good slave... Mhm... Good slut..." He yawns, then smiles his eyes dropping closed.

Logan has started to space out remembering every pup, what he wanted to name them, and how they died, trembling and leaning into Roman’s warmth. Logan flinches for second when Roman touches his scrap but when he smells Roman’s scent a half second later he stops and leans into Roman’s hand.

Roman could feel him trembling and could feel his flinch, he removes his hand only to see him leaning into it. So he continued massaging his scalp, and he hugs him close and protectively. "Master is alright, he's okay. It's just been a long day for him. You aren't a slave or a slut. You are Dee. And your the best omega anybody could ask for. Now sh... Sh... Go to sleep." He watches Dee slowly fall asleep. Then he digs in his pockets for his earpods that he always carries with him just in case. He places them in Logan's ears then brings out his phone as well. He scrolls through his music to find the playlist he had downloaded just for when Logan gets his flashbacks. He starts playing it then he gently rocked him side to side, humming softly and releasing his calming scents some more. "You're not there, Logan. You're not there. Sh... Focus on the music. Focus on me." He whispered calmly to him.

Logan’s trembling soon stops after Roman starts playing music and releasing his calming scents. Logan relaxes, slowly hugging Roman gently and tired as flashbacks can be tiring and he didn’t get much sleep last night.

Roman smiles when he could feel his trembling slowly coming to a stop. That's great. That's...really really great. And he smiles even more at feeling him relaxing under his hands. Thank God he downloaded that playlist, it has been a lifesaver more then once. He knew he'd be tired right after this so he looks around the room. And luckily there were a small couch at the far end of the wall. Gently he scoops up Logan in his arms and brings him over to the couch, laying Logan on his chest and grabbing a blanket and pillow from where he was. He laid the blanket on them and puts the pillow behind his head. He places a gentle kiss on Logan's forehead then rubs his back. "Go to sleep, Lo. I'll be here. I won't leave you." He whispers to him, yawning himself. It's been a tiring few hours.

“G-Goodnight, Ro.” Logan yawns softly before falling asleep and gently snuggling Roman in his sleep.

"Goodnight, Lo." He whispers back, and he stays awake for a bit longer. Just to make sure that Logan is asleep and Dee is too. The heart monitor is weirdly calming but at the same time stressful. But he sighs and lays down some more, having his arms gently protective around Logan. And he falls asleep snuggling Logan back and he sleeps peacefully.

Logan sleeps peacefully for several hours until a nightmare attacked his first peaceful sleep in around a month causing him to shift slightly and whimper.

Roman was still sound asleep, but when he heard that whimper subconsciously he held him tighter and released more calming scents. "Mhm... No... Bad...sound... Mhm... Not that... Not..." He mumbled in his sleep then turned his head, he rolled over and held Logan almost like a stuffed animal close to his chest.

Logan relaxes, the nightmare stopping. Logan snuggles closer to Roman chest in his sleep.

Roman snuggled him, wrapping his arms and legs around him in his sleep. He immediately went back to sleep once Logan snuggled up to him, even subconsciously knowing that he's fine now.

Just as they were about to go back to sleep Dee's heart monitor started beeping more intensely. And the sounds of the bed rocking back and forth can be heard. Followed by what sounded like crying and mumbling incoherent words.

Logan immediately wakes up, jumping in surprise and falls off the couch before looking at Dee, panicking.

Dee is kicking out at something, his head shaking back and forth and sobbing. Though he was clearly asleep, just having a nightmare by the looks of things. He was doing that for a moment before he suddenly screams at the top of his lungs and jump up, his eyes open with a panic and his breathing is heavy. He brings up his knees to his chest and sobs quietly into his knees.

Roman was starting to wake up when he heard the loud thuds, but at the loud scream he was instantly awake. He snapped awake and nearly fell ontop of logan. But he manages to catch himself and look around to where the screaming came from. Only to see it was Dee who was crying and shaking. He frowns and leans over to Logan to take out the earpods, then he slowly walked over to Dee. "Hey... Hey, it's okay... It's alright. Sh..." He cooed. But Dee only jumped away from him, and looked at him with pure terror.

Logan gets up from the floor slowly and carefully approaches Dee slowly. “Hey.. Dee... it’s okay... you’re safe...”

Roman slowly backs away then, he knows if he keeps going towards him that would only make him panic more.

Dee whips over when he hears Logan and sucks in a breath. His eyes are unfocused for a bit and he just stares at Logan. Until he shakes his head to clear it out. Slowly he registers what he's saying and he hiccups. "M-Master...?" He managed to say, his body shaking. "I... I... N-No... Not... Mhm..." He whispers, shaking his head and curling back into a ball.

“Did you have a nightmare, Dee?” Logan says softly, slowly moving closer to Dee.

"Y-Yes... M-Master..." He hiccuped, hiding his face in his knees the best he could. Though the tugging on the wires were making it hard to do. But he ignored it and kept tugging, sobbing quietly. He seemed to be forcing himself to calm down, probably from his nails digging into his legs so hard that it's causing it to bleed. But it's making himself snap back to reality, which is what he wanted. "Sorry... Sorry... Stupid... M' stupid... I'll... Go back to sleep now... Very.. very... Very sorry...to wake you up.. very... I..." He sucks in a harsh breath then forced himself to lay back down.

“Hey, it’s okay... I’m sorry you had a nightmare... You aren’t stupid.. it’s not your fault, Dee...” Logan speaks softly.

Dee hesitantly glanced at him, still tears pouring down his cheeks but he shakes his head. He immediately wipes it all away and digs his nails into his face to keep from crying some more. "I... Not... Not okay... Not... I.... Why...aren't you... whipping me... Master? I don't.. I... I... Stupid... Stupid...slut... Not..." He takes a shaky breath, "Every night...have nightmares... It's fine... It's... It's okay..."

“You aren’t a s-slut. You are Dee and you are amazing. I’m sorry you have nightmares every night.... I do too.” Logan is extremely worried about Dee.

Dee immediately shook his head, his name now is Dee of course. But he isn't amazing. He is anything but. He's a slut, that's what he is... Though at his whisper he glanced up at him, few bits of blood coming from his cheeks. "Master...has nightmares... N-Not... Not possible... Not... Lying... Lying... Trick... Master's trick... Lie... Master's lie..." He shook his head again and brought up the blanket over his head. "Lie..." He whispered, hiding himself in a tight ball.

Roman glanced over at Logan and bit his lip nervously. Logan wasn't like this at all back when he saved him. Sure, he did hide away when he had nightmares but... He didn't hurt himself or act like this. He wasn't sure what to do.

Logan doesn’t know what to do too. “I can promise you that I am not lying...” Worry and Concern overwhelming Logan as he speaks softly.

Dee could hear the worry in his voice, and it's very clear now. He at first didn't even know what that emotion was. Until he had to realize it sounded a lot like the others when they're being taken away by the alphas. Worry... And fear of course. He swallows and slowly peeks out to look at him. "Master's...don't...get nightmares... They... They give it..." He hiccuped, "You... I... I'm... I'm confused..." He admitted slowly as it was clear that his hands were trembling against his cheeks.

“Not all Masters are like that... I-I used to have a M-Master like that.... B-But now I-I’m free.” Logan says as he slowly ends up next to Dee and carefully and slowly tries to lower Dee’s hands from his face.

"You.... You... You...did?" He had to repeat himself as he tried to focus on his words rather then his shaking and ever growing panic in his mind. "How... You... I... Huh?" He asked, completely confused as to how he had a Master before too. But he's a Master... How does that...make sense... When he moves towards his hands he whimpered and shut his eyes, flinching violently from his hands. Only to open his eyes and look at him, his hands moving with his movements.

Logan slowly and gently moves his hands down away from his face. “I’m sorry for scaring you, I don’t want you to hurt yourself... Yes, I did. I’m sorry you had to go through all that.”

Dee doesn't open his eyes at all while he has hold of his hands. He keeps whimpering and holding his breath, expecting to get hit from him. Ever so slowly he opens his eyes once he moves his hands down then blinks. "You... Bad...hurt... Bad..." He finally sucks in a gasp of air and hugs himself. He doesn't know how to handle of this. That he's apologizing to him. That he really had a Master before too. None of this makes much sense to him. "I... I... I don't... I..." He shuts his eyes again and shakes his head, he was still shaking but it wasn't nearly as bad as before. And his breathing has gone down now that he's thinking of what Logan's saying. "Sorry...? Sorry... Sorry... Wake up bad... Sorry." He mumbled.

“It’s okay. I’m sorry for startling you. I was going to wake up from a nightmare soon most likely so you kinda saved me from another nightmare. Thank you.” Logan says softly.

"You...were? I uh... Um... I... Huh?" He definitely seemed confused at the thanks, he's never been...thanked before. He stares at him as if he's crazy, blinking and not saying anything else. He glances over at Roman to make sure he wasn't crazy and no... He's nodding along to what he's saying. Then he glanced back at Logan, he didn't know how to respond to that at all. Though, he guessed it's good that he...sorta saved him from another nightmare...he suppose?

Logan smiles softly at Dee.

"I... I... M' sorry? I uh... I'm... Why are...you saying sorry...to me? I'm... I'm confused... I'm... Why... I don't... Understand?" He stuttered, sounding very confused and lost. "Why... How... You had a Master... You..." He swallowed thickly, raising up his hands again but to just wipe away the tears some more so he could see. "Go...back to bed... Master... Sorry..." He knows he won't be able to get any more sleep for the rest of the night now though. Once he has a nightmare he normally can't fall asleep again, no matter how hard he tries.

Logan is extremely worried. “I want to make sure you are as okay as you can be currently....”

Dee stares at him, confused beyond belief. "Why...?" Why does he care if he's okay? Or as okay as he could be? Why... That doesn't make any sense to him. Why would a Master bother to make sure he's okay? This doesn't make any sense to him...

Logan has concern and worry all over his face and body language.

"B-Because we care about you." Roman finally speaks up, he wanted Logan to take this over since he seems to trust him more. But he knew he won't know what to say back to that. "Because... We... Logan here...as your Master...wants you to be healthy, mentally and physically... He isn't like your other Master's... He much rather prefer you to be healthy for him..." He mumbled, hoping he was saying the right thing.

Dee glances over at Roman and blinks, then stared at Logan. "Want me...to be healthy...?" He slowly comprehends that finding it really strange. "Oh... Oh... That's... Uh... Okay?"

Logan nods, that being exactly what he wanted to say but just couldn’t figure out how to say, silently thanking Roman.

Dee is silent for a moment, "For...breeding? Gonna...breed me? Is that why...you want me healthy? Am I...a breed... slave...?" He asked hesitantly, course he won't mind being a breeding slave. It's better then being a normal slave like he was.

Roman frowns at Dee and shakes his head, "No, no, Hun. We aren't going to touch you like that. Never. Unless you want to. And only if you positively sure. But that's not for a long time. We want you healthy cause we like to see you happy. We want to help you in any way we can. I think... We should walk around a bit, yeah? Since I don't think any of us will get any more sleep." He glances at logan, "I can go get a wheelchair for him?" He offered.

Logan is stunned by Dee’s words and has no clue what to say. When Roman offers to get the wheelchair he slowly shakes his head no. “N-No I’ll go get it...” Before going to find a wheelchair.

Dee glanced between them, confused as to why they want him happy. But he doesn't say anything. Instead he watches him closely, and watches Logan go out and get a wheelchair silently. He feels like he done something wrong, or maybe said something wrong? He isn't sure...

Roman watches him with worry. "Hang on one moment, okay? Be right back." He said to Dee before stepping out and following Logan. "Lo? Lo? Are you okay? You were stuttering and shaking back there." He says with worry.

Logan is shaking as memorys pound into his mind and tears flow down his face. He slowly shakes his head no before hugging Roman.

As Roman got closer to him he could see that he is clearly shaking. And he instantly grew even more worried, he knew that was too much for him. Before he could even say anything he had Logan right on his chest. He blinked in shock for a moment before hugging him back. "Would you like the music back on, Lo?" He whispered to him, rubbing his back soothingly and releasing calming scents.

Logan nods, holding onto Roman as if if he lets go Roman would disappear. The scents help greatly in helping Logan calm down.

Roman nodded, luckily he still has the earpods from earlier. He placed them in Logan's ears gently then resumed the music from last time. "Im right here. Im right here. I won't leave you. I've got you. You're safe, logie. Your safe. I've got you." He whispered to him as the music played, releasing some more calming scents and gently rocking him. It...might not have been a good idea having Logan take care of this omega... He sighs inwardly, trying to think up of some plan for helping both of them out.

Logan soon relaxes, calming down completely. His shaking is now barely noticeable. “I’m sorry.” Logan whispers softly.

Roman is relieved that he's relaxed and calmed now. He's very relieved... He continues to rub his back though, keeping him close. When he hears the apologetic whisper he immediately shakes his head. "There's no need to be. Don't be sorry. It's alright, that was a lot, I understand. Are... Are you sure you'll be able to handle this though, Logan? I... I don't like seeing you having this many episodes..." He trails off worringly. He doesn't want to pressure him out of this, but he's really worried about him.

Logan thinks for a second. “I-I don’t know....” Logan admits. “I don’t know w-what to do...”

A lone omega runs down an alleyway, he didn't have a single idea where he was going or where he even was. His only thought was to run. He only wore a thong and a collar with a leash that was dragging behind him, clearly a sign that he was a slave to some alpha. His hands were tied and he had a muzzle strapped to his mouth. And was covered in scars from head to toe, half of his body being burned by flames. And he was in heat, heavily in heat.

Logan, a beta, had been walking to a bookstore when he smelt the lone omega in heat and could tell something was wrong. Logan quickly figured out where the scent was coming from and ran into the alleyway to help.

The smell of fear was coming off in waves from this one omega, plus the smell of heat. It was strong enough to attract anybody nearby really. But he didn't know that. He was too terrified to even think properly. The only thoughts going through his mind was to run away. Run before his masters catch him. When he saw somebody running towards him he froze, trying to step back only to fall on the pavement. He whimpered and whined, sobbing loudly and pleading. His arms and hands over his face to protect himself and his entire body trembling and violently shaking. He wasn't even sure if he was breathing or not, judging by how badly his chest was caving in it definitely didn't feel like he was. He could smell the distant scent that came from him but he couldn't concentrate long enough to figure out that he was a beta.

Logan rushed to his side. “Hey, calm down. I’m not going to hurt you. Can you tell me what is going on?”

He gave a yelp of surprise when he rushed over to him, he sobbed shutting his eyes in fear. Then he shook his head, tears streaming down his eyes and he looked so scared and terrified. Just then he heard what sounded like footsteps coming down the other side of the alleyway and he gave a muffled scream, he could recongize that scent anywhere. He was frozen in fear though, his eyes even wider. He's going to die... He's going to die... They're gonna kill him. It's all over.

Logan gets the sense that whoever was making those footsteps isn’t good. “I’m going to pick you up, sorry if it hurts.” Logan says before picking the omega up, using adrenaline he starts to run out of the alleyway.

He makes a tiny noise before he's suddenly picked up. He didn't even hear what Logan had just said so when he's suddenly picked up he nearly jumped so badly he just about fell from his arms. Luckily he didn't and he was in shock to find him running away. What...is he doing?! He looked behind to see that luckily they got out of there just in time before the alphas had gotten to where they just were. His gaze landed on Logan and he whimpered behind the muzzle, holding his hands close to his chest. He was still scared, this beta could be taking him to a group of alphas for all he knows.

Logan keeps running, heading back quickly to his apartment. He hopes that his memory of one his roommate who happens to be an alpha saying he was heading out is correct. As much as he trusts him he thinks the omega isn’t going to be comfortable with an alpha nearby currently.

The omega was crying the entire way, scared of what was to happen and become of him. What if Master's follow him? What if he's heading to New Master's? What if he's going to hurt him himself? There's so many what ifs and he's so terrified right now. He didn't stop crying even when Logan got into the apartment and had closed the door. By then his hands were raised to protect himself while he was crying. His cheeks covered in tears and his eyes red and puffy.

Logan quickly locks the door before placing him on the couch gently. Logan carefully removes the muzzle, speaking softly to him. “Hey, you’re safe. I promise that no one is going to hurt you. I’m trying to help you.

He gave a cry when he was placed on the couch before stopping and looking down, not harmful? Not harmful. Okay. Then he flinched and whimpered, crying out when he moved to touch him. Only to realize he's taking off the muzzle. There were obvious signs that it's been on his mouth for a very long time, his peeling and blistering skin is anything to go by. When he opened his mouth the other could see that his tongue is completely missing. He hiccuped and curled up against the couch, shaking his head. "M-Master... Master... Master... He... You... I... I can't... No... I..." He stuttered over himself, his breathing quick. He was obviously too scared to even make much sense. The thong basically did nothing and he was making a small mess on the couch by his slick.

Logan quickly grabs some of his own spare clothes. “I need you to try to calm down a bit. I have some spare clothes you can borrow.” Logan is worried about this omega. From a past relationship he knew a small bit about how the omega is most likely feeling right now.

"N-No... No... Need... Need Master's...permission... I can't... Get in trouble... Trouble bad.... Trouble... I... I can't get... No.... No clothes..." He frantically shakes his head, looking at the clothes as if it'll burn him, which might not be far from the truth judging by how many scars he has. He tries to take deep breaths in, but it was so hard when his panicked thoughts are going so crazy right now. "I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." He whispered, shaking. "Gonna... Gonna...sell me? Take...to Master's or... Or... I..."

“It’s okay. I’m got going to any of that. I’m to call an ambulance and police, they are trained for situations like this and it’s going to help much better than I can on my own.”

"I... But... What.... They'll..." He takes another shaky breath to try and concentrate on talking. "Master's... Master's...in... Master's are in...work for police... Alphas work...for police... Black uniforms... Black uniforms with handcuffs... I think that's police... Will get me... They will get me." He says shakily, trying to calm down the best he could. Luckily it was getting easier and easier as he looked around the place and as time went by, he thought if he was gonna sell him he would be calling around already.

Logan is very worried by this. “Okay, let me think for a second.” Logan begins to think about what he should do, assessing every reasonable option.

He shakily nods, "A-Are you... Are you...my Master now...?" He asked hesitantly, then shut up so he could think. He was quiet, staring at him then everything around them taking the place in. He didn't understand what most of these things do, in all honesty... Even though he was curious he stayed perfectly still, not wanting to move unless told to. He didn't want to test the patience of this beta.

"Hello?" A voice entered the room, the front door being opened and the sound of keys being jangled could be heard.

Logan immediately chokes on his own tongue when he says that. “N-No. uh, um.” Logan is seriously caught off guard by that question.

"I-I... Huh...? But you...saved me...? You own...me now? I'm... I'm confused?" He stared at him, not understanding why he denied it. Either he is his new master or...he's being sold off... But he said no to being sold off so he's...really confused right now. Just as he was starting to finally calm down the door had opened and he jumped up. And his eyes instantly widened in fear when he smelt the alpha smell.

"Lo? You're back already too? Turns out that theater place was a ditch, such a shame too." Roman walked over to the living room and he froze at the scene before him. He was about ready to take off his bag when he spotted the nearly naked man on their couch. And he was definitely in heat. His nose winkled and he glanced at Logan. "Uh... Lo... Care to explain why a nearly naked omega that in heavy heat is currently in our apartment? Did you order a prostitute or something?"

“On my way to the bookstore I found this omega running from someone who he calls ‘Master’ who is most likely someone who has abused him and might kill him. So, no I have not ordered a prostitute.”

"Ah... Well, that's a shame. Cause my hormones are going bonkers right now. He..." Roman took a moment to process everything he just said. He glanced back at Logan, "Is it like... with you?" He asked, knowing about Logan's past. He was the one who helped him break from his alphas control after all.

The omega was dead quiet, he stared at Roman in pure horror. Is this who he's going to give him too?! He couldn't even ask any questions, all that came out was little peeps and hiccups.

“Yes, it is like that.” Logan can sense that the omega is more than terrified so he turns. “He’s not going to hurt you. I’m not selling you or letting you get hurt. He is a great friend of mine, I know him well and he is isn’t going to take advantage of you, I promise.

"Oh... Gotcha..." Roman takes a deep breath, trying to remember what he did with logan back then. Be a rock and ground him. Comfort him... Okay. Very slowly he kneeled down so he wasn't towering over the quivering omega. And he forced himself to push back his instincts on breeding this Omega. He clearly doesn't need that. And very slowly he scoots a bit forward so he was kneeling before the omega. And he let out calming scents. "I promise i won't ever hurt you, alright? I promise on my life. Can you take a breath for me? Focus on my voice and my scent. Sh... Sh... Breathe..."

The omega didn't know what was happening. But when Logan turned to him he looked over. Only to swallow and let out a few more peeps, but he seemed a bit calmer at that. Not take advantage... He jumped when Roman moved, only to blink when he kneeled down to the ground. He didn't know how to even respond to this. He stared at Roman then at Logan, being completely baffled and confused. "W-What...? But I...need a Master.... Need... I can't... Please? Can I have a Master? Please? I can't... I don't know...what to do with myself... Please..." He begged to them, clearly conditioned to needing a Master for everything.

Logan sighs softly, knowing this mindset more than he would like to. “You don’t need a Master, I promise. What they have done to you is wrong and what they have told you about needing a Master is false.” Logan speaks calmly and softly. Letting out calming scents like Roman but they are definitely not as strong as Roman’s due to some events from his past.

"I... I... N-No... I... I need..." He stuttered, shaking his head with tears in his eyes. He sounded devasted, like somebody told him his dog just died. He put his head in his hands and sobbed loudly once more, crying as if he lost something precious to him. "I... No... Not wrong... Not bad... No... They weren't... N-No... Please... Please..." He sobbed, "I need... A master.... Please!!" He begged, he looked around and noticed the wall behind him. He stood up and started slamming his head against the wall with enough force to make the wall shake. "I'm bad! Bad! Bad!!"

"I'll be your Master!" Roman blurted out, he didn't want to, obviously, but he didn't know how else to calm him down.

Logan quickly puts his arm in between him and the wall. “Calm down. You aren’t bad. If you need a Master, I will be your Master.” Logan says trying to keep his voice steady and calm.

"Are you sure, Logan? He... He's worse off then you were... And..." Roman said nervously, whispering to him. He isn't certain about Logan taking care of him, it might trigger some memories...

He immediately stops when he puts an arm between him. Then freezes when they both shouted that they were gonna be his master's. He looked back and stared between them. Then he took a shaky breath and nods, he stands perfectly still as some blood trickle down his head. "Okay... Master's... I'm... I'm sorry... I'm very sorry..." He sat back down, his head down and he immediately calmed down.

“I... I am not completely sure...” Logan whispers back, admitting he isn’t completely comfortable with taking care of him as he already close to an ‘episode’. Logan quickly gets a first aid kit before starting to treat the wounds on the omega the best he can.

"Okay, let me take care of him. He'll listen to me more anyways since I'm an alpha. He might question later why he's listening to a beta. It's alright." Roman whispers to him, then moves out of his way. Only to help him care for the wound on the omegas head. "Or do you think we should let him choose? I... I don't really know. You gravitated towards me but that might just be cause I kept getting in your way back then..."

He sat perfectly still while they tended to his wound, not even moving a bit.

“I don’t really know either. I think we should let him choose so he can get used to choosing for himself easier?...” Logan whispers as he and Roman care for the wound.

"Yeah, thats a good idea. It'll be a nice first step to getting him used to that. Jesus, can he take one of your heat suppressors first? It is so hard trying to concentrate with that heat smell." He says with a low growl in his voice, but he shakes his head and groans.

Logan nods, quickly getting one as he notes that he’s running low on them before returning and crouching in front of the omega. “Hey, I need you to take this. It doesn’t hurt, I promise.”

Roman scoots a bit back once he rushes off to compose himself. He knows it'll take about twenty minutes for it to really take effect but at least he'll have taken it.

He slowly looks up once he was addressed and he looks down at the pill. He debates on whether he should take it or not. Before swallowing his fear and gets the pill, quickly swallowing it dry. He is scared of taking it of course, since his master's did gave them drugs a lot, but he didn't want to anger any of them either.

“They aren’t harmful, they help a lot in heat. They also help my friend, Roman, keep control of himself and his instincts better.” Logan says trying to reassure him that he is safe.

"Okay, Master... Thank you. I'm sorry I hurt other Master from my heat... Why isn't he breeding me...? Or you?" He asked, finally looking up at both of them. Then he bites his lip, "Sorry for asking questions... Am I allowed to ask questions, Master's?"

Roman shivered at how dull his voice sounded. Yep... Exactly like how Logan sounded... "Hey, little omega." He scoots closer to him, keeping his hands down onto the rug. "We have a question for you. And yes, you may ask as many questions as your heart wants. You wont get in trouble by it. No question is dumb. And no breeding, we don't do breeding here. Unless you want it." He takes a breath, "Would you want me as your master or Logan here? You get to choose who you want to follow, is that alright?"

“It is not your fault.” Logan shivers with Roman, remembering when he was like this. Logan nods, agreeing with Roman and looking in between the omega and Roman slowly.

He was silent, looking between both of them. He...gets to choose? That's...really strange. Sometimes he does have two or three Master's at a time. So this is strange. And he is scared at picking the wrong one and the other being angry at him. As he debates this he bites his lip nervously hugging himself. Very slowly he points at Logan, he trusted him more then Roman right now. Especially since he's a beta. Then he quickly looked at Roman, only to flinch and look away.

"Hey, hey, that's good. Thank you for choosing and answering us. Here," He gets up to go to the kitchen, and he comes back with half a cookie. "A treat for being so good for us so far." He gives him the cookie and luckily he takes it, but he glances at Logan. "You're gonna be up for this?"

Logan nods hesitantly. “Y-Yes.”

Roman obviously hears his stutter and he smiles softly, "Come here." He stands up and backs away so the omega won't think he's towering over him or anything. And he hugs Logan, "You can do this, okay? I know you can. You've come so so far. If it ever gets too much you can tell him to stay in your room and come to mine, okay? Or tell him to listen and follow me. I won't mind it at all." He whispers to his ear.

He glances at the cookie and sniffs it hesitantly, he's never seen this before... Strange... It doesn't smell bad or rotten so that's good... He slowly takes a nibble from the cookie but once he tastes the flavor his eyes widened. He shovels the entire thing in his mouth and happily chews it, loving the taste. "Thank you!" He says around his mouthful.

Logan hugs back, nodding softly.

Roman gives a gentle squeeze, "So... We should probably take this guy to the hospital first. He looks pretty...thin and sickly... He might have to stay overnight just by the looks of him... You get him in the car and I pack a bag?" He asked, thinking that was probably the best course of action.

Logan nods, turning to help the omega. “We’re going to get you to a hospital, okay?”

"Hos...pital....? What's that, Master?" He asked, taking his hand a bit shakily to stand up. He got dizzy when he stood up though and had to grip on the couch to keep steady and not fall. Taking a few shaky breaths he tried to stop the room from spinning.

Roman rushed into his room to grab his back and start packing.

Logan helps him stand shifting him so he is supporting the omega. “It’s a place where doctors work and they help heal sick and injuried people. They are good.”

He whimpered when he moved him, thinking he was going to toss him to the ground and force him to move. But instead he blinked and was shocked to see him actually supporting him. Uh... "O-Oh... No... No previous... Master's...? No...cops?" He asked shakily, his head hurting the more he moved. But he forced himself to keep going for Logan.

Logan nods, quickly picking him up carefully and softly. “None of that, I promise.” Logan speaks softly.

"O-Okay... Thank you, Master." He squeaked and tried to hold in a small scream when he picked him up. But he took a shaky breath to calm down. "I... You're...a better Master already... I... I like you more..." He whispered under his breath as he held on to him, blinking at the sunlight once they got outside and hissing softly. "M-Master... Other Master isn't mad that I choose you, right? You're not mad either?"

“Neither of us are mad, I promise.” Logan says as he places the omega in the car.

"O-Okay... Okay... Thank you, Master. I'm sorry for punishing myself. I'm very sorry." He says, sitting down in the car very stock still. He wanted to be good for his new master after all.

Roman came jogging over with a bag, "Alright, I got snacks and a change of clothes for all of us. Here's I assume the clothes you tried to give him? It was laying on the couch so..." He gave Logan the clothes, "Then toothbrush, toothpaste, uh... I don't think we need anything else... I'll come back tomorrow if he does need to stay."

Logan nods, taking the clothes. “Okay, good. thank you, Roman”

"Of course, man, of course." Roman gives him a quick hug before going over to place the bag in the truck. "I'll drive!" He says as he hops into the drivers seat and started up the car to turn on the heat as it was a bit chilly outside.

The omega watched them curiously, not having an idea what is going on. As the car started he jumped in surprise before resting back down, shifting side to side a bit nervously.

Logan sits next to the omega just in case he needs help. “You’re safe. Nothing is going to hurt you now.” Logan reassures the omega softly.

He glanced over at him once he sat next to him, blinking as to why he did that. And he stared at him at his reassuring words, just staring for several moments. Before giving a nod, "O-Okay... I uh... Okay..." He mumbles, and he didn't sound like he was convinced at all. But he agrees anyways.

"We'll both protect you, alright? Trust me. Your part of our pack now, so you don't have to worry about a thing. Just focus on getting better and we'll do the rest." Roman said as he started pulling out then driving along.

Logan nods. “Yes, Roman is correct.”

He is silent, then glances away. "A...pack?" His voice trembles and he swallows thickly. "I... No... No dark room? I... I don't....want to go back... to dark room... I'm... I'm sorry... I'll be good, I promise." He sounded on the verge of tears and he hiccuped, drawing his hands shakily around himself in a hug.

“No dark room, we promise. You don’t have to apologize.” Logan reassures softly, extremely concerned about the omega.

"Yes, Logan is right. No dark room. We'll make sure you don't ever go back there. We'll keep your room lit at all times. It's okay, it's okay, you've been so good for both of us. We're really happy at how good you've been." Roman replied back, keeping his voice soft. But he glances at Logan from the rear view mirror with concern. And he could tell that Logan feels exactly the same.

"R-Really? Oh... Okay... Thank you... Master's. Thank you." He sounded very relieved, incredibly relieved actually. "You're...good Master's... Thank you." He really did sound greatful, these Master's were already a lot better then his previous ones. He takes a shaky breath and pulls up his knees to his chest, trying to be small as possible.

Logan is extremely concerned for the omega.

Roman is silent for a bit, sharing Logan's exact worried thoughts. This one...might be worse then Logan's case... And he isn't sure if they can even help him. But he wants to try, he really wants to try. "So... Do you have a name? We can't keep calling you 'omega' or any of that forever."

He snapped out of his thoughts to look ahead at Roman. And he shook his head. "No, Master. I don't. I'm whatever a master wants to call me. Some name me slut... Others name me whore. Would you want to name me one of those?"

Logan’s concern quickly turns to worry. “No...”

"What?!" Roman sounded appalled, and concerned. Mixed with anger and disgust as well. "No! No... No, we are not calling you any of those names. Hell no. What about... Hm... What do you think, lo? You are his master after all."

He flinched when they all said no to that. Guess that's...a bad thing? He swallowed thickly and glanced to logan, waiting for his answer but remaining quiet this time.

“Hm.. Dee maybe?” Logan is extremely worried and nervous currently and that is one of the only names he can think of.

"Dee's a good name! What do you think about that name? We could change it if you don't like it." Roman says, honestly he's as worried if not more then Logan right now. But he's trying to lift up the mood the best he could. Which probably isn't very good but hey, he's trying.

"it's... It's okay... Thank you, Master. My name is dee now, thank you." He says, bowing his head. Really any name Logan chose he would've said it was good to. But this name he rather quite...liked. It had a nice ring to it, he thought.

Logan smiles softly, mentally thanking Roman for trying to lift the room.

Roman could tell that he was thanking him quietly, and he smiled at that. He drove into the parking spot at the hospital and sighed as he stopped the car and unbuckled. "Alright, you carry Dee in lo and uh... I guess I can sign the papers? If you want? And you go with Dee to the back while they uh...do whatever they need to do?" He asked, figuring out the plan.

Dee was quiet and he looked out the window, marveling at just how big the building was. It was way bigger then the warehouse, or well, what he thinks the warehouse looked like from the outside.

Logan nods, getting out of the car and going to Dee’s side.

Dee looks up when he gets out of the car, and he slowly attempts to open his door. Once he did he stood up, but he must've stood up way too quickly cause everything spun around suddenly. He grew pale before collasping. Luckily he fell right on Logan and he had his eyes shut, his breathing was uneven and he took shaky breaths in.

Roman practically jumped out of the car when he saw Dee collasping. "Logan, go in now! I'll sign the papers!" He quickly got in the car to grab his keys, rushing around.

Logan nods, scooping Dee up and rushing into the hospital.

Dee whimpered at the sudden movement, gripping onto him hard like he was afraid of falling. But he also hid his head in his chest, the rush of light hurting his eyelids. He could hear voices but it sounded like it was coming from underwater.

Luckily, nurses saw them and rushed over. A few nurses were right behind and guestered Logan over to one of their back rooms. They were speaking to each other while they told Logan to set him on the bed in the room. "We'll take it from here. Can you wait in the waiting room for us, please?"

Logan goes in the room and places him on the bed. “I-I uh okay.” Logan stammers before hesitatingly leaving the room and going back to the waiting room, extremely worried and nervous.

Dee doesn't know what's going on, as he felt hands and what he thinks is needles on his arm. "Ma... Master...?" He shakily whispers under his breath and manages to open his eyes. Only to see that Logan has left and he sighed, his head resting on the pillow once more.

Roman is filling out the paperwork when he looks up. "What they say?" He asked, holding up his wrist for Logan to scent if he needed it. He knows that calms him down most of the time, but he isn't sure about right now.

“That they were going to take over now.” Logan says as he softly holds Roman wrist, smelling his scent which calms a part of Logan but he is still nervous and worried.

"It's gonna be alright, Lo. They'll fix him. I promise you that they'll fix him. Everything will be alright, okay? Sh..." Roman released calming and reassuring scents for him and rubbed his back. He even started nuzzling his cheek with his own. "They'll fix him, and we will go home and really get to know him. Dee is a great name for him by the way. It's a fantastic name." He cooed, trying to calm him down the best he could.

Logan smiles softly as the calming and reassuring scents work, he nuzzles his cheek back gently.

Roman smiles back, glad that the scents were working in calming him down. He nuzzles his cheek back gently and sent more scents his way. And he sighed softly, honestly very worried and concerned himself. But he tries to hide it for Logan's sake.

About a half hour later a nurse comes out and walks over to Logan. "You're the one with the scarred omega right?"

Logan nods, becoming extremely worried. “Yes, is he okay?”

Roman is silent, waiting and squeezing Logan's hand.

"He is stable for now. We think he'll be okay in the long run, yes. He's going to need lots of treatment though. His blood cell count was...we haven't ever seen it as low as his was. We had to do a blood transfusion, mulitiple IVs, an oxygen tank since he was having troubles breathing on his own. He is... He's pretty sick."

Logan nods, still extremely worried but is relieved to here that they think he will be okay in the long run at least and Roman’s presence alone is helping him stay calm. “Ah...” Logan manages to say. Due to the abuse he went through from that alpha, Logan is quite awkward when it comes to social things and is extremely quiet often only answering with one or two words. It took a while for him to properly talk and open up to Roman, Roman being one of few people Logan can properly talk without only using one or two words.

Roman is extremely relieved, worried but relieved. As long as they think he'll be fine in the long run that's good enough for him. That means that he has a good enough chance to survive. He squeezes Logan's hand reassuringly when he hears the single word, knowing exactly what he wants to say. He knows that Logan can't say more then one word in front of strangers, so he often steps in and talks for him. And he knows what he wants to say just from his expression and his tone of that single word. "We are very grateful. Thank you so so much. We are both just... Thank you. Is there any chance we can see him?"

"Yes, you may. Right this way." She points down the hallway and smiles, "No need to thank me. I'm just doing my job." She smiles and opens up a door.

Logan smiles softly at Roman, silently thanking him. When she opens the door, Logan goes in the room quickly with extreme worry all over his face.

Roman smiles back, squeezing his hand yet again to silently say that he doesn't have to thank him. Then he followed them, he stays a bit behind Logan making sure he gets to Dee first.

There are quite a lot of wires going into both of his arms, including the poles beside him. And loud beeping was coming from the heart monitor. Dee looked paler then before, his sticky hair plastered to his forehead. And a mask was over his mouth and nose. He definitely didn't look good right now at all, he looked close to death with how pale he is. He appeared to be asleep, his eyes closed and was resting luckily.

Logan lets out a breath he didn’t know he was holding when he sees Dee but worry still runs his mind currently.

Roman swallows at the sight of Dee. That...didn't look very good... He looked back at the nurse to see that she's already gone, huh, well... Then he glanced at Logan to see his transfixed stare at Dee. "Hey, hey, he's going to be okay. Sh... I know it's a lot. But he's going to be fine." He hugs Logan tightly and rubs his back. Just then he heard a groan come from the omega and he looks over, watching Dee slowly open his eyes and look around.

Logan hugs back, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath in. Logan then looks immediately at Dee when he heard the groan. “H-How are you feeling, Dee?”

Roman looks over as well, holding in his breath. He draws up a chair besides his bed for Logan and himself. Knowing Logan probably won't want to leave his side for a while, knowing him at least.

Dee stared at them, as if he has to really concentrate as to who they are. He was silent for several moments before he swallowed and finally spoke. "T-Tired... Not.... Not good..." He groaned out, Winching a bit. "Hurts..? Hurts... Master...didn't leave me?" He sounded a bit heartbroken, like he actually thought that Logan was going to leave him here and won't come back.

Logan sits down, once again silently thanking Roman. When Dee speaks Logan feels guilty for leaving the room and making Dee think he was going to abandon him. “N-No, I would never. I will n-never. I promise.”

Ran shakes his head without saying anything, as if silently saying don't mention it. He focuses on Dee and shakes his head, "No... No, we won't leave you. We won't ever leave you. Okay?"

Dee blinked between them and he could see some emotion in Logan's eyes. He couldn't place what it was though... He cleared his throat a bit then sucked in a breath. "Really...? Oh... Okay... I'm sorry, Master... Sorry... I thought that... Won't think that again..." He silently stared at the wall for a moment before blinking and coming to. "What's... this?" He points weakly at the mask, it wasn't hurting and he could obviously still talk, but he didn't know what it was for.

“I-It’s a mask that helps you b-breathe.” Logan explains, gripping Roman’s hand gently to remind himself that Roman is here which calms him.

Roman grips his hand back, gently rubbing his thumb along logans hand. He scoots his chair closer and hugs Logan from the side, still holding his hand. He released calming scents again, wanting Logan to know that he's here and not going to leave him.

"Oh... Oh... Okay... Feels funny... Mhm..." He whispers, his voice slurring together. "Mhm... No... No bad men? Bad...alphas... You better Master... Like you... Don't make me eat pups like old Master's... Pups don't taste very good..." He was obviously high off of some drug. But it was making him calm, maybe a bit too calm.

Logan smiles softly at the scents, it working though when Dee says this some bad memories attack his mind but he manages to stay composed and not curl up in a ball. His alpha never made him eat his pups luckily though he did often kill them in front of Logan or forced Logan to kill them. “N-No bad men a-are here... I-I won’t, I-I promise with all my heart.”

Roman is dead silent at what Dee says. He doesn't even know what to say back to that. But he does feel Logan tighten up so he moves his free hand up to massage his scalp. "There is none of that here, we promise. None of that will happen ever again. Now...try to relax okay? Get some sleep. We'll be here when you wake up, little one. Sh..." Roman goes over to pull the blanket over him some more and sighs softly, going right back to Logan side.

Dee glances between both of them. "Okay... Okay... Uh... Is... Is Master okay?" Even in his daze state he noticed his stuttering and little bit of shakingness. Then he blinks at Roman and nods, "Okay... I'll get some sleep...for you Master... Want to be good...for you... Good slave... Mhm... Good slut..." He yawns, then smiles his eyes dropping closed.

Logan has started to space out remembering every pup, what he wanted to name them, and how they died, trembling and leaning into Roman’s warmth. Logan flinches for second when Roman touches his scrap but when he smells Roman’s scent a half second later he stops and leans into Roman’s hand.

Roman could feel him trembling and could feel his flinch, he removes his hand only to see him leaning into it. So he continued massaging his scalp, and he hugs him close and protectively. "Master is alright, he's okay. It's just been a long day for him. You aren't a slave or a slut. You are Dee. And your the best omega anybody could ask for. Now sh... Sh... Go to sleep." He watches Dee slowly fall asleep. Then he digs in his pockets for his earpods that he always carries with him just in case. He places them in Logan's ears then brings out his phone as well. He scrolls through his music to find the playlist he had downloaded just for when Logan gets his flashbacks. He starts playing it then he gently rocked him side to side, humming softly and releasing his calming scents some more. "You're not there, Logan. You're not there. Sh... Focus on the music. Focus on me." He whispered calmly to him.

Logan’s trembling soon stops after Roman starts playing music and releasing his calming scents. Logan relaxes, slowly hugging Roman gently and tired as flashbacks can be tiring and he didn’t get much sleep last night.

Roman smiles when he could feel his trembling slowly coming to a stop. That's great. That's...really really great. And he smiles even more at feeling him relaxing under his hands. Thank God he downloaded that playlist, it has been a lifesaver more then once. He knew he'd be tired right after this so he looks around the room. And luckily there were a small couch at the far end of the wall. Gently he scoops up Logan in his arms and brings him over to the couch, laying Logan on his chest and grabbing a blanket and pillow from where he was. He laid the blanket on them and puts the pillow behind his head. He places a gentle kiss on Logan's forehead then rubs his back. "Go to sleep, Lo. I'll be here. I won't leave you." He whispers to him, yawning himself. It's been a tiring few hours.

“G-Goodnight, Ro.” Logan yawns softly before falling asleep and gently snuggling Roman in his sleep.

"Goodnight, Lo." He whispers back, and he stays awake for a bit longer. Just to make sure that Logan is asleep and Dee is too. The heart monitor is weirdly calming but at the same time stressful. But he sighs and lays down some more, having his arms gently protective around Logan. And he falls asleep snuggling Logan back and he sleeps peacefully.

Logan sleeps peacefully for several hours until a nightmare attacked his first peaceful sleep in around a month causing him to shift slightly and whimper.

Roman was still sound asleep, but when he heard that whimper subconsciously he held him tighter and released more calming scents. "Mhm... No... Bad...sound... Mhm... Not that... Not..." He mumbled in his sleep then turned his head, he rolled over and held Logan almost like a stuffed animal close to his chest.

Logan relaxes, the nightmare stopping. Logan snuggles closer to Roman chest in his sleep.

Roman snuggled him, wrapping his arms and legs around him in his sleep. He immediately went back to sleep once Logan snuggled up to him, even subconsciously knowing that he's fine now.

Just as they were about to go back to sleep Dee's heart monitor started beeping more intensely. And the sounds of the bed rocking back and forth can be heard. Followed by what sounded like crying and mumbling incoherent words.

Logan immediately wakes up, jumping in surprise and falls off the couch before looking at Dee, panicking.

Dee is kicking out at something, his head shaking back and forth and sobbing. Though he was clearly asleep, just having a nightmare by the looks of things. He was doing that for a moment before he suddenly screams at the top of his lungs and jump up, his eyes open with a panic and his breathing is heavy. He brings up his knees to his chest and sobs quietly into his knees.

Roman was starting to wake up when he heard the loud thuds, but at the loud scream he was instantly awake. He snapped awake and nearly fell ontop of logan. But he manages to catch himself and look around to where the screaming came from. Only to see it was Dee who was crying and shaking. He frowns and leans over to Logan to take out the earpods, then he slowly walked over to Dee. "Hey... Hey, it's okay... It's alright. Sh..." He cooed. But Dee only jumped away from him, and looked at him with pure terror.

Logan gets up from the floor slowly and carefully approaches Dee slowly. “Hey.. Dee... it’s okay... you’re safe...”

Roman slowly backs away then, he knows if he keeps going towards him that would only make him panic more.

Dee whips over when he hears Logan and sucks in a breath. His eyes are unfocused for a bit and he just stares at Logan. Until he shakes his head to clear it out. Slowly he registers what he's saying and he hiccups. "M-Master...?" He managed to say, his body shaking. "I... I... N-No... Not... Mhm..." He whispers, shaking his head and curling back into a ball.

“Did you have a nightmare, Dee?” Logan says softly, slowly moving closer to Dee.

"Y-Yes... M-Master..." He hiccuped, hiding his face in his knees the best he could. Though the tugging on the wires were making it hard to do. But he ignored it and kept tugging, sobbing quietly. He seemed to be forcing himself to calm down, probably from his nails digging into his legs so hard that it's causing it to bleed. But it's making himself snap back to reality, which is what he wanted. "Sorry... Sorry... Stupid... M' stupid... I'll... Go back to sleep now... Very.. very... Very sorry...to wake you up.. very... I..." He sucks in a harsh breath then forced himself to lay back down.

“Hey, it’s okay... I’m sorry you had a nightmare... You aren’t stupid.. it’s not your fault, Dee...” Logan speaks softly.

Dee hesitantly glanced at him, still tears pouring down his cheeks but he shakes his head. He immediately wipes it all away and digs his nails into his face to keep from crying some more. "I... Not... Not okay... Not... I.... Why...aren't you... whipping me... Master? I don't.. I... I... Stupid... Stupid...slut... Not..." He takes a shaky breath, "Every night...have nightmares... It's fine... It's... It's okay..."

“You aren’t a s-slut. You are Dee and you are amazing. I’m sorry you have nightmares every night.... I do too.” Logan is extremely worried about Dee.

Dee immediately shook his head, his name now is Dee of course. But he isn't amazing. He is anything but. He's a slut, that's what he is... Though at his whisper he glanced up at him, few bits of blood coming from his cheeks. "Master...has nightmares... N-Not... Not possible... Not... Lying... Lying... Trick... Master's trick... Lie... Master's lie..." He shook his head again and brought up the blanket over his head. "Lie..." He whispered, hiding himself in a tight ball.

Roman glanced over at Logan and bit his lip nervously. Logan wasn't like this at all back when he saved him. Sure, he did hide away when he had nightmares but... He didn't hurt himself or act like this. He wasn't sure what to do.

Logan doesn’t know what to do too. “I can promise you that I am not lying...” Worry and Concern overwhelming Logan as he speaks softly.

Dee could hear the worry in his voice, and it's very clear now. He at first didn't even know what that emotion was. Until he had to realize it sounded a lot like the others when they're being taken away by the alphas. Worry... And fear of course. He swallows and slowly peeks out to look at him. "Master's...don't...get nightmares... They... They give it..." He hiccuped, "You... I... I'm... I'm confused..." He admitted slowly as it was clear that his hands were trembling against his cheeks.

“Not all Masters are like that... I-I used to have a M-Master like that.... B-But now I-I’m free.” Logan says as he slowly ends up next to Dee and carefully and slowly tries to lower Dee’s hands from his face.

"You.... You... You...did?" He had to repeat himself as he tried to focus on his words rather then his shaking and ever growing panic in his mind. "How... You... I... Huh?" He asked, completely confused as to how he had a Master before too. But he's a Master... How does that...make sense... When he moves towards his hands he whimpered and shut his eyes, flinching violently from his hands. Only to open his eyes and look at him, his hands moving with his movements.

Logan slowly and gently moves his hands down away from his face. “I’m sorry for scaring you, I don’t want you to hurt yourself... Yes, I did. I’m sorry you had to go through all that.”

Dee doesn't open his eyes at all while he has hold of his hands. He keeps whimpering and holding his breath, expecting to get hit from him. Ever so slowly he opens his eyes once he moves his hands down then blinks. "You... Bad...hurt... Bad..." He finally sucks in a gasp of air and hugs himself. He doesn't know how to handle of this. That he's apologizing to him. That he really had a Master before too. None of this makes much sense to him. "I... I... I don't... I..." He shuts his eyes again and shakes his head, he was still shaking but it wasn't nearly as bad as before. And his breathing has gone down now that he's thinking of what Logan's saying. "Sorry...? Sorry... Sorry... Wake up bad... Sorry." He mumbled.

“It’s okay. I’m sorry for startling you. I was going to wake up from a nightmare soon most likely so you kinda saved me from another nightmare. Thank you.” Logan says softly.

"You...were? I uh... Um... I... Huh?" He definitely seemed confused at the thanks, he's never been...thanked before. He stares at him as if he's crazy, blinking and not saying anything else. He glances over at Roman to make sure he wasn't crazy and no... He's nodding along to what he's saying. Then he glanced back at Logan, he didn't know how to respond to that at all. Though, he guessed it's good that he...sorta saved him from another nightmare...he suppose?

Logan smiles softly at Dee.

"I... I... M' sorry? I uh... I'm... Why are...you saying sorry...to me? I'm... I'm confused... I'm... Why... I don't... Understand?" He stuttered, sounding very confused and lost. "Why... How... You had a Master... You..." He swallowed thickly, raising up his hands again but to just wipe away the tears some more so he could see. "Go...back to bed... Master... Sorry..." He knows he won't be able to get any more sleep for the rest of the night now though. Once he has a nightmare he normally can't fall asleep again, no matter how hard he tries.

Logan is extremely worried. “I want to make sure you are as okay as you can be currently....”

Dee stares at him, confused beyond belief. "Why...?" Why does he care if he's okay? Or as okay as he could be? Why... That doesn't make any sense to him. Why would a Master bother to make sure he's okay? This doesn't make any sense to him...

Logan has concern and worry all over his face and body language.

"B-Because we care about you." Roman finally speaks up, he wanted Logan to take this over since he seems to trust him more. But he knew he won't know what to say back to that. "Because... We... Logan here...as your Master...wants you to be healthy, mentally and physically... He isn't like your other Master's... He much rather prefer you to be healthy for him..." He mumbled, hoping he was saying the right thing.

Dee glances over at Roman and blinks, then stared at Logan. "Want me...to be healthy...?" He slowly comprehends that finding it really strange. "Oh... Oh... That's... Uh... Okay?"

Logan nods, that being exactly what he wanted to say but just couldn’t figure out how to say, silently thanking Roman.

Dee is silent for a moment, "For...breeding? Gonna...breed me? Is that why...you want me healthy? Am I...a breed... slave...?" He asked hesitantly, course he won't mind being a breeding slave. It's better then being a normal slave like he was.

Roman frowns at Dee and shakes his head, "No, no, Hun. We aren't going to touch you like that. Never. Unless you want to. And only if you positively sure. But that's not for a long time. We want you healthy cause we like to see you happy. We want to help you in any way we can. I think... We should walk around a bit, yeah? Since I don't think any of us will get any more sleep." He glances at logan, "I can go get a wheelchair for him?" He offered.

Logan is stunned by Dee’s words and has no clue what to say. When Roman offers to get the wheelchair he slowly shakes his head no. “N-No I’ll go get it...” Before going to find a wheelchair.

Dee glanced between them, confused as to why they want him happy. But he doesn't say anything. Instead he watches him closely, and watches Logan go out and get a wheelchair silently. He feels like he done something wrong, or maybe said something wrong? He isn't sure...

Roman watches him with worry. "Hang on one moment, okay? Be right back." He said to Dee before stepping out and following Logan. "Lo? Lo? Are you okay? You were stuttering and shaking back there." He says with worry.

Logan is shaking as memorys pound into his mind and tears flow down his face. He slowly shakes his head no before hugging Roman.

As Roman got closer to him he could see that he is clearly shaking. And he instantly grew even more worried, he knew that was too much for him. Before he could even say anything he had Logan right on his chest. He blinked in shock for a moment before hugging him back. "Would you like the music back on, Lo?" He whispered to him, rubbing his back soothingly and releasing calming scents.

Logan nods, holding onto Roman as if if he lets go Roman would disappear. The scents help greatly in helping Logan calm down.

Roman nodded, luckily he still has the earpods from earlier. He placed them in Logan's ears gently then resumed the music from last time. "Im right here. Im right here. I won't leave you. I've got you. You're safe, logie. Your safe. I've got you." He whispered to him as the music played, releasing some more calming scents and gently rocking him. It...might not have been a good idea having Logan take care of this omega... He sighs inwardly, trying to think up of some plan for helping both of them out.

Logan soon relaxes, calming down completely. His shaking is now barely noticeable. “I’m sorry.” Logan whispers softly.

A lone omega runs down an alleyway, he didn't have a single idea where he was going or where he even was. His only thought was to run. He only wore a thong and a collar with a leash that was dragging behind him, clearly a sign that he was a slave to some alpha. His hands were tied and he had a muzzle strapped to his mouth. And was covered in scars from head to toe, half of his body being burned by flames. And he was in heat, heavily in heat.

Logan, a beta, had been walking to a bookstore when he smelt the lone omega in heat and could tell something was wrong. Logan quickly figured out where the scent was coming from and ran into the alleyway to help.

The smell of fear was coming off in waves from this one omega, plus the smell of heat. It was strong enough to attract anybody nearby really. But he didn't know that. He was too terrified to even think properly. The only thoughts going through his mind was to run away. Run before his masters catch him. When he saw somebody running towards him he froze, trying to step back only to fall on the pavement. He whimpered and whined, sobbing loudly and pleading. His arms and hands over his face to protect himself and his entire body trembling and violently shaking. He wasn't even sure if he was breathing or not, judging by how badly his chest was caving in it definitely didn't feel like he was. He could smell the distant scent that came from him but he couldn't concentrate long enough to figure out that he was a beta.

Logan rushed to his side. “Hey, calm down. I’m not going to hurt you. Can you tell me what is going on?”

He gave a yelp of surprise when he rushed over to him, he sobbed shutting his eyes in fear. Then he shook his head, tears streaming down his eyes and he looked so scared and terrified. Just then he heard what sounded like footsteps coming down the other side of the alleyway and he gave a muffled scream, he could recongize that scent anywhere. He was frozen in fear though, his eyes even wider. He's going to die... He's going to die... They're gonna kill him. It's all over.

Logan gets the sense that whoever was making those footsteps isn’t good. “I’m going to pick you up, sorry if it hurts.” Logan says before picking the omega up, using adrenaline he starts to run out of the alleyway.

He makes a tiny noise before he's suddenly picked up. He didn't even hear what Logan had just said so when he's suddenly picked up he nearly jumped so badly he just about fell from his arms. Luckily he didn't and he was in shock to find him running away. What...is he doing?! He looked behind to see that luckily they got out of there just in time before the alphas had gotten to where they just were. His gaze landed on Logan and he whimpered behind the muzzle, holding his hands close to his chest. He was still scared, this beta could be taking him to a group of alphas for all he knows.

Logan keeps running, heading back quickly to his apartment. He hopes that his memory of one his roommate who happens to be an alpha saying he was heading out is correct. As much as he trusts him he thinks the omega isn’t going to be comfortable with an alpha nearby currently.

The omega was crying the entire way, scared of what was to happen and become of him. What if Master's follow him? What if he's heading to New Master's? What if he's going to hurt him himself? There's so many what ifs and he's so terrified right now. He didn't stop crying even when Logan got into the apartment and had closed the door. By then his hands were raised to protect himself while he was crying. His cheeks covered in tears and his eyes red and puffy.

Logan quickly locks the door before placing him on the couch gently. Logan carefully removes the muzzle, speaking softly to him. “Hey, you’re safe. I promise that no one is going to hurt you. I’m trying to help you.

He gave a cry when he was placed on the couch before stopping and looking down, not harmful? Not harmful. Okay. Then he flinched and whimpered, crying out when he moved to touch him. Only to realize he's taking off the muzzle. There were obvious signs that it's been on his mouth for a very long time, his peeling and blistering skin is anything to go by. When he opened his mouth the other could see that his tongue is completely missing. He hiccuped and curled up against the couch, shaking his head. "M-Master... Master... Master... He... You... I... I can't... No... I..." He stuttered over himself, his breathing quick. He was obviously too scared to even make much sense. The thong basically did nothing and he was making a small mess on the couch by his slick.

Logan quickly grabs some of his own spare clothes. “I need you to try to calm down a bit. I have some spare clothes you can borrow.” Logan is worried about this omega. From a past relationship he knew a small bit about how the omega is most likely feeling right now.

"N-No... No... Need... Need Master's...permission... I can't... Get in trouble... Trouble bad.... Trouble... I... I can't get... No.... No clothes..." He frantically shakes his head, looking at the clothes as if it'll burn him, which might not be far from the truth judging by how many scars he has. He tries to take deep breaths in, but it was so hard when his panicked thoughts are going so crazy right now. "I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." He whispered, shaking. "Gonna... Gonna...sell me? Take...to Master's or... Or... I..."

“It’s okay. I’m got going to any of that. I’m to call an ambulance and police, they are trained for situations like this and it’s going to help much better than I can on my own.”

"I... But... What.... They'll..." He takes another shaky breath to try and concentrate on talking. "Master's... Master's...in... Master's are in...work for police... Alphas work...for police... Black uniforms... Black uniforms with handcuffs... I think that's police... Will get me... They will get me." He says shakily, trying to calm down the best he could. Luckily it was getting easier and easier as he looked around the place and as time went by, he thought if he was gonna sell him he would be calling around already.

Logan is very worried by this. “Okay, let me think for a second.” Logan begins to think about what he should do, assessing every reasonable option.

He shakily nods, "A-Are you... Are you...my Master now...?" He asked hesitantly, then shut up so he could think. He was quiet, staring at him then everything around them taking the place in. He didn't understand what most of these things do, in all honesty... Even though he was curious he stayed perfectly still, not wanting to move unless told to. He didn't want to test the patience of this beta.

"Hello?" A voice entered the room, the front door being opened and the sound of keys being jangled could be heard.

Logan immediately chokes on his own tongue when he says that. “N-No. uh, um.” Logan is seriously caught off guard by that question.

"I-I... Huh...? But you...saved me...? You own...me now? I'm... I'm confused?" He stared at him, not understanding why he denied it. Either he is his new master or...he's being sold off... But he said no to being sold off so he's...really confused right now. Just as he was starting to finally calm down the door had opened and he jumped up. And his eyes instantly widened in fear when he smelt the alpha smell.

"Lo? You're back already too? Turns out that theater place was a ditch, such a shame too." Roman walked over to the living room and he froze at the scene before him. He was about ready to take off his bag when he spotted the nearly naked man on their couch. And he was definitely in heat. His nose winkled and he glanced at Logan. "Uh... Lo... Care to explain why a nearly naked omega that in heavy heat is currently in our apartment? Did you order a prostitute or something?"

“On my way to the bookstore I found this omega running from someone who he calls ‘Master’ who is most likely someone who has abused him and might kill him. So, no I have not ordered a prostitute.”

"Ah... Well, that's a shame. Cause my hormones are going bonkers right now. He..." Roman took a moment to process everything he just said. He glanced back at Logan, "Is it like... with you?" He asked, knowing about Logan's past. He was the one who helped him break from his alphas control after all.

The omega was dead quiet, he stared at Roman in pure horror. Is this who he's going to give him too?! He couldn't even ask any questions, all that came out was little peeps and hiccups.

“Yes, it is like that.” Logan can sense that the omega is more than terrified so he turns. “He’s not going to hurt you. I’m not selling you or letting you get hurt. He is a great friend of mine, I know him well and he is isn’t going to take advantage of you, I promise.

"Oh... Gotcha..." Roman takes a deep breath, trying to remember what he did with logan back then. Be a rock and ground him. Comfort him... Okay. Very slowly he kneeled down so he wasn't towering over the quivering omega. And he forced himself to push back his instincts on breeding this Omega. He clearly doesn't need that. And very slowly he scoots a bit forward so he was kneeling before the omega. And he let out calming scents. "I promise i won't ever hurt you, alright? I promise on my life. Can you take a breath for me? Focus on my voice and my scent. Sh... Sh... Breathe..."

The omega didn't know what was happening. But when Logan turned to him he looked over. Only to swallow and let out a few more peeps, but he seemed a bit calmer at that. Not take advantage... He jumped when Roman moved, only to blink when he kneeled down to the ground. He didn't know how to even respond to this. He stared at Roman then at Logan, being completely baffled and confused. "W-What...? But I...need a Master.... Need... I can't... Please? Can I have a Master? Please? I can't... I don't know...what to do with myself... Please..." He begged to them, clearly conditioned to needing a Master for everything.

Logan sighs softly, knowing this mindset more than he would like to. “You don’t need a Master, I promise. What they have done to you is wrong and what they have told you about needing a Master is false.” Logan speaks calmly and softly. Letting out calming scents like Roman but they are definitely not as strong as Roman’s due to some events from his past.

"I... I... N-No... I... I need..." He stuttered, shaking his head with tears in his eyes. He sounded devasted, like somebody told him his dog just died. He put his head in his hands and sobbed loudly once more, crying as if he lost something precious to him. "I... No... Not wrong... Not bad... No... They weren't... N-No... Please... Please..." He sobbed, "I need... A master.... Please!!" He begged, he looked around and noticed the wall behind him. He stood up and started slamming his head against the wall with enough force to make the wall shake. "I'm bad! Bad! Bad!!"

"I'll be your Master!" Roman blurted out, he didn't want to, obviously, but he didn't know how else to calm him down.

Logan quickly puts his arm in between him and the wall. “Calm down. You aren’t bad. If you need a Master, I will be your Master.” Logan says trying to keep his voice steady and calm.

"Are you sure, Logan? He... He's worse off then you were... And..." Roman said nervously, whispering to him. He isn't certain about Logan taking care of him, it might trigger some memories...

He immediately stops when he puts an arm between him. Then freezes when they both shouted that they were gonna be his master's. He looked back and stared between them. Then he took a shaky breath and nods, he stands perfectly still as some blood trickle down his head. "Okay... Master's... I'm... I'm sorry... I'm very sorry..." He sat back down, his head down and he immediately calmed down.

“I... I am not completely sure...” Logan whispers back, admitting he isn’t completely comfortable with taking care of him as he already close to an ‘episode’. Logan quickly gets a first aid kit before starting to treat the wounds on the omega the best he can.

"Okay, let me take care of him. He'll listen to me more anyways since I'm an alpha. He might question later why he's listening to a beta. It's alright." Roman whispers to him, then moves out of his way. Only to help him care for the wound on the omegas head. "Or do you think we should let him choose? I... I don't really know. You gravitated towards me but that might just be cause I kept getting in your way back then..."

He sat perfectly still while they tended to his wound, not even moving a bit.

“I don’t really know either. I think we should let him choose so he can get used to choosing for himself easier?...” Logan whispers as he and Roman care for the wound.

"Yeah, thats a good idea. It'll be a nice first step to getting him used to that. Jesus, can he take one of your heat suppressors first? It is so hard trying to concentrate with that heat smell." He says with a low growl in his voice, but he shakes his head and groans.

Logan nods, quickly getting one as he notes that he’s running low on them before returning and crouching in front of the omega. “Hey, I need you to take this. It doesn’t hurt, I promise.”

Roman scoots a bit back once he rushes off to compose himself. He knows it'll take about twenty minutes for it to really take effect but at least he'll have taken it.

He slowly looks up once he was addressed and he looks down at the pill. He debates on whether he should take it or not. Before swallowing his fear and gets the pill, quickly swallowing it dry. He is scared of taking it of course, since his master's did gave them drugs a lot, but he didn't want to anger any of them either.

“They aren’t harmful, they help a lot in heat. They also help my friend, Roman, keep control of himself and his instincts better.” Logan says trying to reassure him that he is safe.

"Okay, Master... Thank you. I'm sorry I hurt other Master from my heat... Why isn't he breeding me...? Or you?" He asked, finally looking up at both of them. Then he bites his lip, "Sorry for asking questions... Am I allowed to ask questions, Master's?"

Roman shivered at how dull his voice sounded. Yep... Exactly like how Logan sounded... "Hey, little omega." He scoots closer to him, keeping his hands down onto the rug. "We have a question for you. And yes, you may ask as many questions as your heart wants. You wont get in trouble by it. No question is dumb. And no breeding, we don't do breeding here. Unless you want it." He takes a breath, "Would you want me as your master or Logan here? You get to choose who you want to follow, is that alright?"

“It is not your fault.” Logan shivers with Roman, remembering when he was like this. Logan nods, agreeing with Roman and looking in between the omega and Roman slowly.

He was silent, looking between both of them. He...gets to choose? That's...really strange. Sometimes he does have two or three Master's at a time. So this is strange. And he is scared at picking the wrong one and the other being angry at him. As he debates this he bites his lip nervously hugging himself. Very slowly he points at Logan, he trusted him more then Roman right now. Especially since he's a beta. Then he quickly looked at Roman, only to flinch and look away.

"Hey, hey, that's good. Thank you for choosing and answering us. Here," He gets up to go to the kitchen, and he comes back with half a cookie. "A treat for being so good for us so far." He gives him the cookie and luckily he takes it, but he glances at Logan. "You're gonna be up for this?"

Logan nods hesitantly. “Y-Yes.”

Roman obviously hears his stutter and he smiles softly, "Come here." He stands up and backs away so the omega won't think he's towering over him or anything. And he hugs Logan, "You can do this, okay? I know you can. You've come so so far. If it ever gets too much you can tell him to stay in your room and come to mine, okay? Or tell him to listen and follow me. I won't mind it at all." He whispers to his ear.

He glances at the cookie and sniffs it hesitantly, he's never seen this before... Strange... It doesn't smell bad or rotten so that's good... He slowly takes a nibble from the cookie but once he tastes the flavor his eyes widened. He shovels the entire thing in his mouth and happily chews it, loving the taste. "Thank you!" He says around his mouthful.

Logan hugs back, nodding softly.

Roman gives a gentle squeeze, "So... We should probably take this guy to the hospital first. He looks pretty...thin and sickly... He might have to stay overnight just by the looks of him... You get him in the car and I pack a bag?" He asked, thinking that was probably the best course of action.

Logan nods, turning to help the omega. “We’re going to get you to a hospital, okay?”

"Hos...pital....? What's that, Master?" He asked, taking his hand a bit shakily to stand up. He got dizzy when he stood up though and had to grip on the couch to keep steady and not fall. Taking a few shaky breaths he tried to stop the room from spinning.

Roman rushed into his room to grab his back and start packing.

Logan helps him stand shifting him so he is supporting the omega. “It’s a place where doctors work and they help heal sick and injuried people. They are good.”

He whimpered when he moved him, thinking he was going to toss him to the ground and force him to move. But instead he blinked and was shocked to see him actually supporting him. Uh... "O-Oh... No... No previous... Master's...? No...cops?" He asked shakily, his head hurting the more he moved. But he forced himself to keep going for Logan.

Logan nods, quickly picking him up carefully and softly. “None of that, I promise.” Logan speaks softly.

"O-Okay... Thank you, Master." He squeaked and tried to hold in a small scream when he picked him up. But he took a shaky breath to calm down. "I... You're...a better Master already... I... I like you more..." He whispered under his breath as he held on to him, blinking at the sunlight once they got outside and hissing softly. "M-Master... Other Master isn't mad that I choose you, right? You're not mad either?"

“Neither of us are mad, I promise.” Logan says as he places the omega in the car.

"O-Okay... Okay... Thank you, Master. I'm sorry for punishing myself. I'm very sorry." He says, sitting down in the car very stock still. He wanted to be good for his new master after all.

Roman came jogging over with a bag, "Alright, I got snacks and a change of clothes for all of us. Here's I assume the clothes you tried to give him? It was laying on the couch so..." He gave Logan the clothes, "Then toothbrush, toothpaste, uh... I don't think we need anything else... I'll come back tomorrow if he does need to stay."

Logan nods, taking the clothes. “Okay, good. thank you, Roman”

"Of course, man, of course." Roman gives him a quick hug before going over to place the bag in the truck. "I'll drive!" He says as he hops into the drivers seat and started up the car to turn on the heat as it was a bit chilly outside.

The omega watched them curiously, not having an idea what is going on. As the car started he jumped in surprise before resting back down, shifting side to side a bit nervously.

Logan sits next to the omega just in case he needs help. “You’re safe. Nothing is going to hurt you now.” Logan reassures the omega softly.

He glanced over at him once he sat next to him, blinking as to why he did that. And he stared at him at his reassuring words, just staring for several moments. Before giving a nod, "O-Okay... I uh... Okay..." He mumbles, and he didn't sound like he was convinced at all. But he agrees anyways.

"We'll both protect you, alright? Trust me. Your part of our pack now, so you don't have to worry about a thing. Just focus on getting better and we'll do the rest." Roman said as he started pulling out then driving along.

Logan nods. “Yes, Roman is correct.”

He is silent, then glances away. "A...pack?" His voice trembles and he swallows thickly. "I... No... No dark room? I... I don't....want to go back... to dark room... I'm... I'm sorry... I'll be good, I promise." He sounded on the verge of tears and he hiccuped, drawing his hands shakily around himself in a hug.

“No dark room, we promise. You don’t have to apologize.” Logan reassures softly, extremely concerned about the omega.

"Yes, Logan is right. No dark room. We'll make sure you don't ever go back there. We'll keep your room lit at all times. It's okay, it's okay, you've been so good for both of us. We're really happy at how good you've been." Roman replied back, keeping his voice soft. But he glances at Logan from the rear view mirror with concern. And he could tell that Logan feels exactly the same.

"R-Really? Oh... Okay... Thank you... Master's. Thank you." He sounded very relieved, incredibly relieved actually. "You're...good Master's... Thank you." He really did sound greatful, these Master's were already a lot better then his previous ones. He takes a shaky breath and pulls up his knees to his chest, trying to be small as possible.

Logan is extremely concerned for the omega.

Roman is silent for a bit, sharing Logan's exact worried thoughts. This one...might be worse then Logan's case... And he isn't sure if they can even help him. But he wants to try, he really wants to try. "So... Do you have a name? We can't keep calling you 'omega' or any of that forever."

He snapped out of his thoughts to look ahead at Roman. And he shook his head. "No, Master. I don't. I'm whatever a master wants to call me. Some name me slut... Others name me whore. Would you want to name me one of those?"

Logan’s concern quickly turns to worry. “No...”

"What?!" Roman sounded appalled, and concerned. Mixed with anger and disgust as well. "No! No... No, we are not calling you any of those names. Hell no. What about... Hm... What do you think, lo? You are his master after all."

He flinched when they all said no to that. Guess that's...a bad thing? He swallowed thickly and glanced to logan, waiting for his answer but remaining quiet this time.

“Hm.. Dee maybe?” Logan is extremely worried and nervous currently and that is one of the only names he can think of.

"Dee's a good name! What do you think about that name? We could change it if you don't like it." Roman says, honestly he's as worried if not more then Logan right now. But he's trying to lift up the mood the best he could. Which probably isn't very good but hey, he's trying.

"it's... It's okay... Thank you, Master. My name is dee now, thank you." He says, bowing his head. Really any name Logan chose he would've said it was good to. But this name he rather quite...liked. It had a nice ring to it, he thought.

Logan smiles softly, mentally thanking Roman for trying to lift the room.

Roman could tell that he was thanking him quietly, and he smiled at that. He drove into the parking spot at the hospital and sighed as he stopped the car and unbuckled. "Alright, you carry Dee in lo and uh... I guess I can sign the papers? If you want? And you go with Dee to the back while they uh...do whatever they need to do?" He asked, figuring out the plan.

Dee was quiet and he looked out the window, marveling at just how big the building was. It was way bigger then the warehouse, or well, what he thinks the warehouse looked like from the outside.

Logan nods, getting out of the car and going to Dee’s side.

Dee looks up when he gets out of the car, and he slowly attempts to open his door. Once he did he stood up, but he must've stood up way too quickly cause everything spun around suddenly. He grew pale before collasping. Luckily he fell right on Logan and he had his eyes shut, his breathing was uneven and he took shaky breaths in.

Roman practically jumped out of the car when he saw Dee collasping. "Logan, go in now! I'll sign the papers!" He quickly got in the car to grab his keys, rushing around.

Logan nods, scooping Dee up and rushing into the hospital.

Dee whimpered at the sudden movement, gripping onto him hard like he was afraid of falling. But he also hid his head in his chest, the rush of light hurting his eyelids. He could hear voices but it sounded like it was coming from underwater.

Luckily, nurses saw them and rushed over. A few nurses were right behind and guestered Logan over to one of their back rooms. They were speaking to each other while they told Logan to set him on the bed in the room. "We'll take it from here. Can you wait in the waiting room for us, please?"

Logan goes in the room and places him on the bed. “I-I uh okay.” Logan stammers before hesitatingly leaving the room and going back to the waiting room, extremely worried and nervous.

Dee doesn't know what's going on, as he felt hands and what he thinks is needles on his arm. "Ma... Master...?" He shakily whispers under his breath and manages to open his eyes. Only to see that Logan has left and he sighed, his head resting on the pillow once more.

Roman is filling out the paperwork when he looks up. "What they say?" He asked, holding up his wrist for Logan to scent if he needed it. He knows that calms him down most of the time, but he isn't sure about right now.

“That they were going to take over now.” Logan says as he softly holds Roman wrist, smelling his scent which calms a part of Logan but he is still nervous and worried.

"It's gonna be alright, Lo. They'll fix him. I promise you that they'll fix him. Everything will be alright, okay? Sh..." Roman released calming and reassuring scents for him and rubbed his back. He even started nuzzling his cheek with his own. "They'll fix him, and we will go home and really get to know him. Dee is a great name for him by the way. It's a fantastic name." He cooed, trying to calm him down the best he could.

Logan smiles softly as the calming and reassuring scents work, he nuzzles his cheek back gently.

Roman smiles back, glad that the scents were working in calming him down. He nuzzles his cheek back gently and sent more scents his way. And he sighed softly, honestly very worried and concerned himself. But he tries to hide it for Logan's sake.

About a half hour later a nurse comes out and walks over to Logan. "You're the one with the scarred omega right?"

Logan nods, becoming extremely worried. “Yes, is he okay?”

Roman is silent, waiting and squeezing Logan's hand.

"He is stable for now. We think he'll be okay in the long run, yes. He's going to need lots of treatment though. His blood cell count was...we haven't ever seen it as low as his was. We had to do a blood transfusion, mulitiple IVs, an oxygen tank since he was having troubles breathing on his own. He is... He's pretty sick."

Logan nods, still extremely worried but is relieved to here that they think he will be okay in the long run at least and Roman’s presence alone is helping him stay calm. “Ah...” Logan manages to say. Due to the abuse he went through from that alpha, Logan is quite awkward when it comes to social things and is extremely quiet often only answering with one or two words. It took a while for him to properly talk and open up to Roman, Roman being one of few people Logan can properly talk without only using one or two words.

Roman is extremely relieved, worried but relieved. As long as they think he'll be fine in the long run that's good enough for him. That means that he has a good enough chance to survive. He squeezes Logan's hand reassuringly when he hears the single word, knowing exactly what he wants to say. He knows that Logan can't say more then one word in front of strangers, so he often steps in and talks for him. And he knows what he wants to say just from his expression and his tone of that single word. "We are very grateful. Thank you so so much. We are both just... Thank you. Is there any chance we can see him?"

"Yes, you may. Right this way." She points down the hallway and smiles, "No need to thank me. I'm just doing my job." She smiles and opens up a door.

Logan smiles softly at Roman, silently thanking him. When she opens the door, Logan goes in the room quickly with extreme worry all over his face.

Roman smiles back, squeezing his hand yet again to silently say that he doesn't have to thank him. Then he followed them, he stays a bit behind Logan making sure he gets to Dee first.

There are quite a lot of wires going into both of his arms, including the poles beside him. And loud beeping was coming from the heart monitor. Dee looked paler then before, his sticky hair plastered to his forehead. And a mask was over his mouth and nose. He definitely didn't look good right now at all, he looked close to death with how pale he is. He appeared to be asleep, his eyes closed and was resting luckily.

Logan lets out a breath he didn’t know he was holding when he sees Dee but worry still runs his mind currently.

Roman swallows at the sight of Dee. That...didn't look very good... He looked back at the nurse to see that she's already gone, huh, well... Then he glanced at Logan to see his transfixed stare at Dee. "Hey, hey, he's going to be okay. Sh... I know it's a lot. But he's going to be fine." He hugs Logan tightly and rubs his back. Just then he heard a groan come from the omega and he looks over, watching Dee slowly open his eyes and look around.

Logan hugs back, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath in. Logan then looks immediately at Dee when he heard the groan. “H-How are you feeling, Dee?”

Roman looks over as well, holding in his breath. He draws up a chair besides his bed for Logan and himself. Knowing Logan probably won't want to leave his side for a while, knowing him at least.

Dee stared at them, as if he has to really concentrate as to who they are. He was silent for several moments before he swallowed and finally spoke. "T-Tired... Not.... Not good..." He groaned out, Winching a bit. "Hurts..? Hurts... Master...didn't leave me?" He sounded a bit heartbroken, like he actually thought that Logan was going to leave him here and won't come back.

Logan sits down, once again silently thanking Roman. When Dee speaks Logan feels guilty for leaving the room and making Dee think he was going to abandon him. “N-No, I would never. I will n-never. I promise.”

Ran shakes his head without saying anything, as if silently saying don't mention it. He focuses on Dee and shakes his head, "No... No, we won't leave you. We won't ever leave you. Okay?"

Dee blinked between them and he could see some emotion in Logan's eyes. He couldn't place what it was though... He cleared his throat a bit then sucked in a breath. "Really...? Oh... Okay... I'm sorry, Master... Sorry... I thought that... Won't think that again..." He silently stared at the wall for a moment before blinking and coming to. "What's... this?" He points weakly at the mask, it wasn't hurting and he could obviously still talk, but he didn't know what it was for.

“I-It’s a mask that helps you b-breathe.” Logan explains, gripping Roman’s hand gently to remind himself that Roman is here which calms him.

Roman grips his hand back, gently rubbing his thumb along logans hand. He scoots his chair closer and hugs Logan from the side, still holding his hand. He released calming scents again, wanting Logan to know that he's here and not going to leave him.

"Oh... Oh... Okay... Feels funny... Mhm..." He whispers, his voice slurring together. "Mhm... No... No bad men? Bad...alphas... You better Master... Like you... Don't make me eat pups like old Master's... Pups don't taste very good..." He was obviously high off of some drug. But it was making him calm, maybe a bit too calm.

Logan smiles softly at the scents, it working though when Dee says this some bad memories attack his mind but he manages to stay composed and not curl up in a ball. His alpha never made him eat his pups luckily though he did often kill them in front of Logan or forced Logan to kill them. “N-No bad men a-are here... I-I won’t, I-I promise with all my heart.”

Roman is dead silent at what Dee says. He doesn't even know what to say back to that. But he does feel Logan tighten up so he moves his free hand up to massage his scalp. "There is none of that here, we promise. None of that will happen ever again. Now...try to relax okay? Get some sleep. We'll be here when you wake up, little one. Sh..." Roman goes over to pull the blanket over him some more and sighs softly, going right back to Logan side.

Dee glances between both of them. "Okay... Okay... Uh... Is... Is Master okay?" Even in his daze state he noticed his stuttering and little bit of shakingness. Then he blinks at Roman and nods, "Okay... I'll get some sleep...for you Master... Want to be good...for you... Good slave... Mhm... Good slut..." He yawns, then smiles his eyes dropping closed.

Logan has started to space out remembering every pup, what he wanted to name them, and how they died, trembling and leaning into Roman’s warmth. Logan flinches for second when Roman touches his scrap but when he smells Roman’s scent a half second later he stops and leans into Roman’s hand.

Roman could feel him trembling and could feel his flinch, he removes his hand only to see him leaning into it. So he continued massaging his scalp, and he hugs him close and protectively. "Master is alright, he's okay. It's just been a long day for him. You aren't a slave or a slut. You are Dee. And your the best omega anybody could ask for. Now sh... Sh... Go to sleep." He watches Dee slowly fall asleep. Then he digs in his pockets for his earpods that he always carries with him just in case. He places them in Logan's ears then brings out his phone as well. He scrolls through his music to find the playlist he had downloaded just for when Logan gets his flashbacks. He starts playing it then he gently rocked him side to side, humming softly and releasing his calming scents some more. "You're not there, Logan. You're not there. Sh... Focus on the music. Focus on me." He whispered calmly to him.

Logan’s trembling soon stops after Roman starts playing music and releasing his calming scents. Logan relaxes, slowly hugging Roman gently and tired as flashbacks can be tiring and he didn’t get much sleep last night.

Roman smiles when he could feel his trembling slowly coming to a stop. That's great. That's...really really great. And he smiles even more at feeling him relaxing under his hands. Thank God he downloaded that playlist, it has been a lifesaver more then once. He knew he'd be tired right after this so he looks around the room. And luckily there were a small couch at the far end of the wall. Gently he scoops up Logan in his arms and brings him over to the couch, laying Logan on his chest and grabbing a blanket and pillow from where he was. He laid the blanket on them and puts the pillow behind his head. He places a gentle kiss on Logan's forehead then rubs his back. "Go to sleep, Lo. I'll be here. I won't leave you." He whispers to him, yawning himself. It's been a tiring few hours.

“G-Goodnight, Ro.” Logan yawns softly before falling asleep and gently snuggling Roman in his sleep.

"Goodnight, Lo." He whispers back, and he stays awake for a bit longer. Just to make sure that Logan is asleep and Dee is too. The heart monitor is weirdly calming but at the same time stressful. But he sighs and lays down some more, having his arms gently protective around Logan. And he falls asleep snuggling Logan back and he sleeps peacefully.

Logan sleeps peacefully for several hours until a nightmare attacked his first peaceful sleep in around a month causing him to shift slightly and whimper.

Roman was still sound asleep, but when he heard that whimper subconsciously he held him tighter and released more calming scents. "Mhm... No... Bad...sound... Mhm... Not that... Not..." He mumbled in his sleep then turned his head, he rolled over and held Logan almost like a stuffed animal close to his chest.

Logan relaxes, the nightmare stopping. Logan snuggles closer to Roman chest in his sleep.

Roman snuggled him, wrapping his arms and legs around him in his sleep. He immediately went back to sleep once Logan snuggled up to him, even subconsciously knowing that he's fine now.

Just as they were about to go back to sleep Dee's heart monitor started beeping more intensely. And the sounds of the bed rocking back and forth can be heard. Followed by what sounded like crying and mumbling incoherent words.

Logan immediately wakes up, jumping in surprise and falls off the couch before looking at Dee, panicking.

Dee is kicking out at something, his head shaking back and forth and sobbing. Though he was clearly asleep, just having a nightmare by the looks of things. He was doing that for a moment before he suddenly screams at the top of his lungs and jump up, his eyes open with a panic and his breathing is heavy. He brings up his knees to his chest and sobs quietly into his knees.

Roman was starting to wake up when he heard the loud thuds, but at the loud scream he was instantly awake. He snapped awake and nearly fell ontop of logan. But he manages to catch himself and look around to where the screaming came from. Only to see it was Dee who was crying and shaking. He frowns and leans over to Logan to take out the earpods, then he slowly walked over to Dee. "Hey... Hey, it's okay... It's alright. Sh..." He cooed. But Dee only jumped away from him, and looked at him with pure terror.

Logan gets up from the floor slowly and carefully approaches Dee slowly. “Hey.. Dee... it’s okay... you’re safe...”

Roman slowly backs away then, he knows if he keeps going towards him that would only make him panic more.

Dee whips over when he hears Logan and sucks in a breath. His eyes are unfocused for a bit and he just stares at Logan. Until he shakes his head to clear it out. Slowly he registers what he's saying and he hiccups. "M-Master...?" He managed to say, his body shaking. "I... I... N-No... Not... Mhm..." He whispers, shaking his head and curling back into a ball.

“Did you have a nightmare, Dee?” Logan says softly, slowly moving closer to Dee.

"Y-Yes... M-Master..." He hiccuped, hiding his face in his knees the best he could. Though the tugging on the wires were making it hard to do. But he ignored it and kept tugging, sobbing quietly. He seemed to be forcing himself to calm down, probably from his nails digging into his legs so hard that it's causing it to bleed. But it's making himself snap back to reality, which is what he wanted. "Sorry... Sorry... Stupid... M' stupid... I'll... Go back to sleep now... Very.. very... Very sorry...to wake you up.. very... I..." He sucks in a harsh breath then forced himself to lay back down.

“Hey, it’s okay... I’m sorry you had a nightmare... You aren’t stupid.. it’s not your fault, Dee...” Logan speaks softly.

Dee hesitantly glanced at him, still tears pouring down his cheeks but he shakes his head. He immediately wipes it all away and digs his nails into his face to keep from crying some more. "I... Not... Not okay... Not... I.... Why...aren't you... whipping me... Master? I don't.. I... I... Stupid... Stupid...slut... Not..." He takes a shaky breath, "Every night...have nightmares... It's fine... It's... It's okay..."

“You aren’t a s-slut. You are Dee and you are amazing. I’m sorry you have nightmares every night.... I do too.” Logan is extremely worried about Dee.

Dee immediately shook his head, his name now is Dee of course. But he isn't amazing. He is anything but. He's a slut, that's what he is... Though at his whisper he glanced up at him, few bits of blood coming from his cheeks. "Master...has nightmares... N-Not... Not possible... Not... Lying... Lying... Trick... Master's trick... Lie... Master's lie..." He shook his head again and brought up the blanket over his head. "Lie..." He whispered, hiding himself in a tight ball.

Roman glanced over at Logan and bit his lip nervously. Logan wasn't like this at all back when he saved him. Sure, he did hide away when he had nightmares but... He didn't hurt himself or act like this. He wasn't sure what to do.

Logan doesn’t know what to do too. “I can promise you that I am not lying...” Worry and Concern overwhelming Logan as he speaks softly.

Dee could hear the worry in his voice, and it's very clear now. He at first didn't even know what that emotion was. Until he had to realize it sounded a lot like the others when they're being taken away by the alphas. Worry... And fear of course. He swallows and slowly peeks out to look at him. "Master's...don't...get nightmares... They... They give it..." He hiccuped, "You... I... I'm... I'm confused..." He admitted slowly as it was clear that his hands were trembling against his cheeks.

“Not all Masters are like that... I-I used to have a M-Master like that.... B-But now I-I’m free.” Logan says as he slowly ends up next to Dee and carefully and slowly tries to lower Dee’s hands from his face.

"You.... You... You...did?" He had to repeat himself as he tried to focus on his words rather then his shaking and ever growing panic in his mind. "How... You... I... Huh?" He asked, completely confused as to how he had a Master before too. But he's a Master... How does that...make sense... When he moves towards his hands he whimpered and shut his eyes, flinching violently from his hands. Only to open his eyes and look at him, his hands moving with his movements.

Logan slowly and gently moves his hands down away from his face. “I’m sorry for scaring you, I don’t want you to hurt yourself... Yes, I did. I’m sorry you had to go through all that.”

Dee doesn't open his eyes at all while he has hold of his hands. He keeps whimpering and holding his breath, expecting to get hit from him. Ever so slowly he opens his eyes once he moves his hands down then blinks. "You... Bad...hurt... Bad..." He finally sucks in a gasp of air and hugs himself. He doesn't know how to handle of this. That he's apologizing to him. That he really had a Master before too. None of this makes much sense to him. "I... I... I don't... I..." He shuts his eyes again and shakes his head, he was still shaking but it wasn't nearly as bad as before. And his breathing has gone down now that he's thinking of what Logan's saying. "Sorry...? Sorry... Sorry... Wake up bad... Sorry." He mumbled.

“It’s okay. I’m sorry for startling you. I was going to wake up from a nightmare soon most likely so you kinda saved me from another nightmare. Thank you.” Logan says softly.

"You...were? I uh... Um... I... Huh?" He definitely seemed confused at the thanks, he's never been...thanked before. He stares at him as if he's crazy, blinking and not saying anything else. He glances over at Roman to make sure he wasn't crazy and no... He's nodding along to what he's saying. Then he glanced back at Logan, he didn't know how to respond to that at all. Though, he guessed it's good that he...sorta saved him from another nightmare...he suppose?

Logan smiles softly at Dee.

"I... I... M' sorry? I uh... I'm... Why are...you saying sorry...to me? I'm... I'm confused... I'm... Why... I don't... Understand?" He stuttered, sounding very confused and lost. "Why... How... You had a Master... You..." He swallowed thickly, raising up his hands again but to just wipe away the tears some more so he could see. "Go...back to bed... Master... Sorry..." He knows he won't be able to get any more sleep for the rest of the night now though. Once he has a nightmare he normally can't fall asleep again, no matter how hard he tries.

Logan is extremely worried. “I want to make sure you are as okay as you can be currently....”

Dee stares at him, confused beyond belief. "Why...?" Why does he care if he's okay? Or as okay as he could be? Why... That doesn't make any sense to him. Why would a Master bother to make sure he's okay? This doesn't make any sense to him...

Logan has concern and worry all over his face and body language.

"B-Because we care about you." Roman finally speaks up, he wanted Logan to take this over since he seems to trust him more. But he knew he won't know what to say back to that. "Because... We... Logan here...as your Master...wants you to be healthy, mentally and physically... He isn't like your other Master's... He much rather prefer you to be healthy for him..." He mumbled, hoping he was saying the right thing.

Dee glances over at Roman and blinks, then stared at Logan. "Want me...to be healthy...?" He slowly comprehends that finding it really strange. "Oh... Oh... That's... Uh... Okay?"

Logan nods, that being exactly what he wanted to say but just couldn’t figure out how to say, silently thanking Roman.

Dee is silent for a moment, "For...breeding? Gonna...breed me? Is that why...you want me healthy? Am I...a breed... slave...?" He asked hesitantly, course he won't mind being a breeding slave. It's better then being a normal slave like he was.

Roman frowns at Dee and shakes his head, "No, no, Hun. We aren't going to touch you like that. Never. Unless you want to. And only if you positively sure. But that's not for a long time. We want you healthy cause we like to see you happy. We want to help you in any way we can. I think... We should walk around a bit, yeah? Since I don't think any of us will get any more sleep." He glances at logan, "I can go get a wheelchair for him?" He offered.

Logan is stunned by Dee’s words and has no clue what to say. When Roman offers to get the wheelchair he slowly shakes his head no. “N-No I’ll go get it...” Before going to find a wheelchair.

Dee glanced between them, confused as to why they want him happy. But he doesn't say anything. Instead he watches him closely, and watches Logan go out and get a wheelchair silently. He feels like he done something wrong, or maybe said something wrong? He isn't sure...

Roman watches him with worry. "Hang on one moment, okay? Be right back." He said to Dee before stepping out and following Logan. "Lo? Lo? Are you okay? You were stuttering and shaking back there." He says with worry.

Logan is shaking as memorys pound into his mind and tears flow down his face. He slowly shakes his head no before hugging Roman.

As Roman got closer to him he could see that he is clearly shaking. And he instantly grew even more worried, he knew that was too much for him. Before he could even say anything he had Logan right on his chest. He blinked in shock for a moment before hugging him back. "Would you like the music back on, Lo?" He whispered to him, rubbing his back soothingly and releasing calming scents.

Logan nods, holding onto Roman as if if he lets go Roman would disappear. The scents help greatly in helping Logan calm down.

Some rando: You should think about stopping your prescription

Me: My pills make me not want to die tho

They: You shouldn’t want to die, that’s not normal

Me: Yeah that’s why I’m taking my pills

Again: But you aren’t the *real* you when you’re on your pills

Me: I’m the alive version of me

An actual doctor, once: “Relying On A Chemical Crutch For A Hormonal Imbalance Denies The Fortitude Of The Human Soul”

Me: Cool so like I’m agnostic

They: “But you might be on pills the rest of your life!”

Me: “So?”

illnessisnteasy

Good! That means that I have a “rest of” my life to continue living!

Thanks to the pills.

Meanwhile, no person ever: “You should think about giving up your insulin/antiretrovirals/beta blockers/anti-rejection drugs/prosthetic legs/daily multivitamin, because using those your whole life is bad for some reason”

Oh no, they do that too.

living-deciduously

I have a kidney transplant. A woman once told me she didn’t believe in organ transplants and that people should just die when they’re meant to.

Sounds like a great set-up for a murder

People who are fully healthy, fit and neurotypical seem to think they are that way because they’re doing something right that the rest of us haven’t thought of, and not just because they got lucky

A lone omega runs down an alleyway, he didn't have a single idea where he was going or where he even was. His only thought was to run. He only wore a thong and a collar with a leash that was dragging behind him, clearly a sign that he was a slave to some alpha. His hands were tied and he had a muzzle strapped to his mouth. And was covered in scars from head to toe, half of his body being burned by flames. And he was in heat, heavily in heat.

Logan, a beta, had been walking to a bookstore when he smelt the lone omega in heat and could tell something was wrong. Logan quickly figured out where the scent was coming from and ran into the alleyway to help.

The smell of fear was coming off in waves from this one omega, plus the smell of heat. It was strong enough to attract anybody nearby really. But he didn't know that. He was too terrified to even think properly. The only thoughts going through his mind was to run away. Run before his masters catch him. When he saw somebody running towards him he froze, trying to step back only to fall on the pavement. He whimpered and whined, sobbing loudly and pleading. His arms and hands over his face to protect himself and his entire body trembling and violently shaking. He wasn't even sure if he was breathing or not, judging by how badly his chest was caving in it definitely didn't feel like he was. He could smell the distant scent that came from him but he couldn't concentrate long enough to figure out that he was a beta.

Logan rushed to his side. “Hey, calm down. I’m not going to hurt you. Can you tell me what is going on?”

He gave a yelp of surprise when he rushed over to him, he sobbed shutting his eyes in fear. Then he shook his head, tears streaming down his eyes and he looked so scared and terrified. Just then he heard what sounded like footsteps coming down the other side of the alleyway and he gave a muffled scream, he could recongize that scent anywhere. He was frozen in fear though, his eyes even wider. He's going to die... He's going to die... They're gonna kill him. It's all over.

Logan gets the sense that whoever was making those footsteps isn’t good. “I’m going to pick you up, sorry if it hurts.” Logan says before picking the omega up, using adrenaline he starts to run out of the alleyway.

He makes a tiny noise before he's suddenly picked up. He didn't even hear what Logan had just said so when he's suddenly picked up he nearly jumped so badly he just about fell from his arms. Luckily he didn't and he was in shock to find him running away. What...is he doing?! He looked behind to see that luckily they got out of there just in time before the alphas had gotten to where they just were. His gaze landed on Logan and he whimpered behind the muzzle, holding his hands close to his chest. He was still scared, this beta could be taking him to a group of alphas for all he knows.

Logan keeps running, heading back quickly to his apartment. He hopes that his memory of one his roommate who happens to be an alpha saying he was heading out is correct. As much as he trusts him he thinks the omega isn’t going to be comfortable with an alpha nearby currently.

The omega was crying the entire way, scared of what was to happen and become of him. What if Master's follow him? What if he's heading to New Master's? What if he's going to hurt him himself? There's so many what ifs and he's so terrified right now. He didn't stop crying even when Logan got into the apartment and had closed the door. By then his hands were raised to protect himself while he was crying. His cheeks covered in tears and his eyes red and puffy.

Logan quickly locks the door before placing him on the couch gently. Logan carefully removes the muzzle, speaking softly to him. “Hey, you’re safe. I promise that no one is going to hurt you. I’m trying to help you.

He gave a cry when he was placed on the couch before stopping and looking down, not harmful? Not harmful. Okay. Then he flinched and whimpered, crying out when he moved to touch him. Only to realize he's taking off the muzzle. There were obvious signs that it's been on his mouth for a very long time, his peeling and blistering skin is anything to go by. When he opened his mouth the other could see that his tongue is completely missing. He hiccuped and curled up against the couch, shaking his head. "M-Master... Master... Master... He... You... I... I can't... No... I..." He stuttered over himself, his breathing quick. He was obviously too scared to even make much sense. The thong basically did nothing and he was making a small mess on the couch by his slick.

Logan quickly grabs some of his own spare clothes. “I need you to try to calm down a bit. I have some spare clothes you can borrow.” Logan is worried about this omega. From a past relationship he knew a small bit about how the omega is most likely feeling right now.

"N-No... No... Need... Need Master's...permission... I can't... Get in trouble... Trouble bad.... Trouble... I... I can't get... No.... No clothes..." He frantically shakes his head, looking at the clothes as if it'll burn him, which might not be far from the truth judging by how many scars he has. He tries to take deep breaths in, but it was so hard when his panicked thoughts are going so crazy right now. "I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." He whispered, shaking. "Gonna... Gonna...sell me? Take...to Master's or... Or... I..."

“It’s okay. I’m got going to any of that. I’m to call an ambulance and police, they are trained for situations like this and it’s going to help much better than I can on my own.”

"I... But... What.... They'll..." He takes another shaky breath to try and concentrate on talking. "Master's... Master's...in... Master's are in...work for police... Alphas work...for police... Black uniforms... Black uniforms with handcuffs... I think that's police... Will get me... They will get me." He says shakily, trying to calm down the best he could. Luckily it was getting easier and easier as he looked around the place and as time went by, he thought if he was gonna sell him he would be calling around already.

Logan is very worried by this. “Okay, let me think for a second.” Logan begins to think about what he should do, assessing every reasonable option.

He shakily nods, "A-Are you... Are you...my Master now...?" He asked hesitantly, then shut up so he could think. He was quiet, staring at him then everything around them taking the place in. He didn't understand what most of these things do, in all honesty... Even though he was curious he stayed perfectly still, not wanting to move unless told to. He didn't want to test the patience of this beta.

"Hello?" A voice entered the room, the front door being opened and the sound of keys being jangled could be heard.

Logan immediately chokes on his own tongue when he says that. “N-No. uh, um.” Logan is seriously caught off guard by that question.

"I-I... Huh...? But you...saved me...? You own...me now? I'm... I'm confused?" He stared at him, not understanding why he denied it. Either he is his new master or...he's being sold off... But he said no to being sold off so he's...really confused right now. Just as he was starting to finally calm down the door had opened and he jumped up. And his eyes instantly widened in fear when he smelt the alpha smell.

"Lo? You're back already too? Turns out that theater place was a ditch, such a shame too." Roman walked over to the living room and he froze at the scene before him. He was about ready to take off his bag when he spotted the nearly naked man on their couch. And he was definitely in heat. His nose winkled and he glanced at Logan. "Uh... Lo... Care to explain why a nearly naked omega that in heavy heat is currently in our apartment? Did you order a prostitute or something?"

“On my way to the bookstore I found this omega running from someone who he calls ‘Master’ who is most likely someone who has abused him and might kill him. So, no I have not ordered a prostitute.”

"Ah... Well, that's a shame. Cause my hormones are going bonkers right now. He..." Roman took a moment to process everything he just said. He glanced back at Logan, "Is it like... with you?" He asked, knowing about Logan's past. He was the one who helped him break from his alphas control after all.

The omega was dead quiet, he stared at Roman in pure horror. Is this who he's going to give him too?! He couldn't even ask any questions, all that came out was little peeps and hiccups.

“Yes, it is like that.” Logan can sense that the omega is more than terrified so he turns. “He’s not going to hurt you. I’m not selling you or letting you get hurt. He is a great friend of mine, I know him well and he is isn’t going to take advantage of you, I promise.

"Oh... Gotcha..." Roman takes a deep breath, trying to remember what he did with logan back then. Be a rock and ground him. Comfort him... Okay. Very slowly he kneeled down so he wasn't towering over the quivering omega. And he forced himself to push back his instincts on breeding this Omega. He clearly doesn't need that. And very slowly he scoots a bit forward so he was kneeling before the omega. And he let out calming scents. "I promise i won't ever hurt you, alright? I promise on my life. Can you take a breath for me? Focus on my voice and my scent. Sh... Sh... Breathe..."

The omega didn't know what was happening. But when Logan turned to him he looked over. Only to swallow and let out a few more peeps, but he seemed a bit calmer at that. Not take advantage... He jumped when Roman moved, only to blink when he kneeled down to the ground. He didn't know how to even respond to this. He stared at Roman then at Logan, being completely baffled and confused. "W-What...? But I...need a Master.... Need... I can't... Please? Can I have a Master? Please? I can't... I don't know...what to do with myself... Please..." He begged to them, clearly conditioned to needing a Master for everything.

Logan sighs softly, knowing this mindset more than he would like to. “You don’t need a Master, I promise. What they have done to you is wrong and what they have told you about needing a Master is false.” Logan speaks calmly and softly. Letting out calming scents like Roman but they are definitely not as strong as Roman’s due to some events from his past.

"I... I... N-No... I... I need..." He stuttered, shaking his head with tears in his eyes. He sounded devasted, like somebody told him his dog just died. He put his head in his hands and sobbed loudly once more, crying as if he lost something precious to him. "I... No... Not wrong... Not bad... No... They weren't... N-No... Please... Please..." He sobbed, "I need... A master.... Please!!" He begged, he looked around and noticed the wall behind him. He stood up and started slamming his head against the wall with enough force to make the wall shake. "I'm bad! Bad! Bad!!"

"I'll be your Master!" Roman blurted out, he didn't want to, obviously, but he didn't know how else to calm him down.

Logan quickly puts his arm in between him and the wall. “Calm down. You aren’t bad. If you need a Master, I will be your Master.” Logan says trying to keep his voice steady and calm.

"Are you sure, Logan? He... He's worse off then you were... And..." Roman said nervously, whispering to him. He isn't certain about Logan taking care of him, it might trigger some memories...

He immediately stops when he puts an arm between him. Then freezes when they both shouted that they were gonna be his master's. He looked back and stared between them. Then he took a shaky breath and nods, he stands perfectly still as some blood trickle down his head. "Okay... Master's... I'm... I'm sorry... I'm very sorry..." He sat back down, his head down and he immediately calmed down.

“I... I am not completely sure...” Logan whispers back, admitting he isn’t completely comfortable with taking care of him as he already close to an ‘episode’. Logan quickly gets a first aid kit before starting to treat the wounds on the omega the best he can.

"Okay, let me take care of him. He'll listen to me more anyways since I'm an alpha. He might question later why he's listening to a beta. It's alright." Roman whispers to him, then moves out of his way. Only to help him care for the wound on the omegas head. "Or do you think we should let him choose? I... I don't really know. You gravitated towards me but that might just be cause I kept getting in your way back then..."

He sat perfectly still while they tended to his wound, not even moving a bit.

“I don’t really know either. I think we should let him choose so he can get used to choosing for himself easier?...” Logan whispers as he and Roman care for the wound.

"Yeah, thats a good idea. It'll be a nice first step to getting him used to that. Jesus, can he take one of your heat suppressors first? It is so hard trying to concentrate with that heat smell." He says with a low growl in his voice, but he shakes his head and groans.

Logan nods, quickly getting one as he notes that he’s running low on them before returning and crouching in front of the omega. “Hey, I need you to take this. It doesn’t hurt, I promise.”

Roman scoots a bit back once he rushes off to compose himself. He knows it'll take about twenty minutes for it to really take effect but at least he'll have taken it.

He slowly looks up once he was addressed and he looks down at the pill. He debates on whether he should take it or not. Before swallowing his fear and gets the pill, quickly swallowing it dry. He is scared of taking it of course, since his master's did gave them drugs a lot, but he didn't want to anger any of them either.

“They aren’t harmful, they help a lot in heat. They also help my friend, Roman, keep control of himself and his instincts better.” Logan says trying to reassure him that he is safe.

"Okay, Master... Thank you. I'm sorry I hurt other Master from my heat... Why isn't he breeding me...? Or you?" He asked, finally looking up at both of them. Then he bites his lip, "Sorry for asking questions... Am I allowed to ask questions, Master's?"

Roman shivered at how dull his voice sounded. Yep... Exactly like how Logan sounded... "Hey, little omega." He scoots closer to him, keeping his hands down onto the rug. "We have a question for you. And yes, you may ask as many questions as your heart wants. You wont get in trouble by it. No question is dumb. And no breeding, we don't do breeding here. Unless you want it." He takes a breath, "Would you want me as your master or Logan here? You get to choose who you want to follow, is that alright?"

“It is not your fault.” Logan shivers with Roman, remembering when he was like this. Logan nods, agreeing with Roman and looking in between the omega and Roman slowly.

He was silent, looking between both of them. He...gets to choose? That's...really strange. Sometimes he does have two or three Master's at a time. So this is strange. And he is scared at picking the wrong one and the other being angry at him. As he debates this he bites his lip nervously hugging himself. Very slowly he points at Logan, he trusted him more then Roman right now. Especially since he's a beta. Then he quickly looked at Roman, only to flinch and look away.

"Hey, hey, that's good. Thank you for choosing and answering us. Here," He gets up to go to the kitchen, and he comes back with half a cookie. "A treat for being so good for us so far." He gives him the cookie and luckily he takes it, but he glances at Logan. "You're gonna be up for this?"

Logan nods hesitantly. “Y-Yes.”

Roman obviously hears his stutter and he smiles softly, "Come here." He stands up and backs away so the omega won't think he's towering over him or anything. And he hugs Logan, "You can do this, okay? I know you can. You've come so so far. If it ever gets too much you can tell him to stay in your room and come to mine, okay? Or tell him to listen and follow me. I won't mind it at all." He whispers to his ear.

He glances at the cookie and sniffs it hesitantly, he's never seen this before... Strange... It doesn't smell bad or rotten so that's good... He slowly takes a nibble from the cookie but once he tastes the flavor his eyes widened. He shovels the entire thing in his mouth and happily chews it, loving the taste. "Thank you!" He says around his mouthful.

Logan hugs back, nodding softly.

Roman gives a gentle squeeze, "So... We should probably take this guy to the hospital first. He looks pretty...thin and sickly... He might have to stay overnight just by the looks of him... You get him in the car and I pack a bag?" He asked, thinking that was probably the best course of action.

Logan nods, turning to help the omega. “We’re going to get you to a hospital, okay?”

"Hos...pital....? What's that, Master?" He asked, taking his hand a bit shakily to stand up. He got dizzy when he stood up though and had to grip on the couch to keep steady and not fall. Taking a few shaky breaths he tried to stop the room from spinning.

Roman rushed into his room to grab his back and start packing.

Logan helps him stand shifting him so he is supporting the omega. “It’s a place where doctors work and they help heal sick and injuried people. They are good.”

He whimpered when he moved him, thinking he was going to toss him to the ground and force him to move. But instead he blinked and was shocked to see him actually supporting him. Uh... "O-Oh... No... No previous... Master's...? No...cops?" He asked shakily, his head hurting the more he moved. But he forced himself to keep going for Logan.

Logan nods, quickly picking him up carefully and softly. “None of that, I promise.” Logan speaks softly.

"O-Okay... Thank you, Master." He squeaked and tried to hold in a small scream when he picked him up. But he took a shaky breath to calm down. "I... You're...a better Master already... I... I like you more..." He whispered under his breath as he held on to him, blinking at the sunlight once they got outside and hissing softly. "M-Master... Other Master isn't mad that I choose you, right? You're not mad either?"

“Neither of us are mad, I promise.” Logan says as he places the omega in the car.

"O-Okay... Okay... Thank you, Master. I'm sorry for punishing myself. I'm very sorry." He says, sitting down in the car very stock still. He wanted to be good for his new master after all.

Roman came jogging over with a bag, "Alright, I got snacks and a change of clothes for all of us. Here's I assume the clothes you tried to give him? It was laying on the couch so..." He gave Logan the clothes, "Then toothbrush, toothpaste, uh... I don't think we need anything else... I'll come back tomorrow if he does need to stay."

Logan nods, taking the clothes. “Okay, good. thank you, Roman”

"Of course, man, of course." Roman gives him a quick hug before going over to place the bag in the truck. "I'll drive!" He says as he hops into the drivers seat and started up the car to turn on the heat as it was a bit chilly outside.

The omega watched them curiously, not having an idea what is going on. As the car started he jumped in surprise before resting back down, shifting side to side a bit nervously.

Logan sits next to the omega just in case he needs help. “You’re safe. Nothing is going to hurt you now.” Logan reassures the omega softly.

He glanced over at him once he sat next to him, blinking as to why he did that. And he stared at him at his reassuring words, just staring for several moments. Before giving a nod, "O-Okay... I uh... Okay..." He mumbles, and he didn't sound like he was convinced at all. But he agrees anyways.

"We'll both protect you, alright? Trust me. Your part of our pack now, so you don't have to worry about a thing. Just focus on getting better and we'll do the rest." Roman said as he started pulling out then driving along.

Logan nods. “Yes, Roman is correct.”

He is silent, then glances away. "A...pack?" His voice trembles and he swallows thickly. "I... No... No dark room? I... I don't....want to go back... to dark room... I'm... I'm sorry... I'll be good, I promise." He sounded on the verge of tears and he hiccuped, drawing his hands shakily around himself in a hug.

“No dark room, we promise. You don’t have to apologize.” Logan reassures softly, extremely concerned about the omega.

"Yes, Logan is right. No dark room. We'll make sure you don't ever go back there. We'll keep your room lit at all times. It's okay, it's okay, you've been so good for both of us. We're really happy at how good you've been." Roman replied back, keeping his voice soft. But he glances at Logan from the rear view mirror with concern. And he could tell that Logan feels exactly the same.

"R-Really? Oh... Okay... Thank you... Master's. Thank you." He sounded very relieved, incredibly relieved actually. "You're...good Master's... Thank you." He really did sound greatful, these Master's were already a lot better then his previous ones. He takes a shaky breath and pulls up his knees to his chest, trying to be small as possible.

Logan is extremely concerned for the omega.

Roman is silent for a bit, sharing Logan's exact worried thoughts. This one...might be worse then Logan's case... And he isn't sure if they can even help him. But he wants to try, he really wants to try. "So... Do you have a name? We can't keep calling you 'omega' or any of that forever."

He snapped out of his thoughts to look ahead at Roman. And he shook his head. "No, Master. I don't. I'm whatever a master wants to call me. Some name me slut... Others name me whore. Would you want to name me one of those?"

Logan’s concern quickly turns to worry. “No...”

"What?!" Roman sounded appalled, and concerned. Mixed with anger and disgust as well. "No! No... No, we are not calling you any of those names. Hell no. What about... Hm... What do you think, lo? You are his master after all."

He flinched when they all said no to that. Guess that's...a bad thing? He swallowed thickly and glanced to logan, waiting for his answer but remaining quiet this time.

“Hm.. Dee maybe?” Logan is extremely worried and nervous currently and that is one of the only names he can think of.

"Dee's a good name! What do you think about that name? We could change it if you don't like it." Roman says, honestly he's as worried if not more then Logan right now. But he's trying to lift up the mood the best he could. Which probably isn't very good but hey, he's trying.

"it's... It's okay... Thank you, Master. My name is dee now, thank you." He says, bowing his head. Really any name Logan chose he would've said it was good to. But this name he rather quite...liked. It had a nice ring to it, he thought.

Logan smiles softly, mentally thanking Roman for trying to lift the room.

Roman could tell that he was thanking him quietly, and he smiled at that. He drove into the parking spot at the hospital and sighed as he stopped the car and unbuckled. "Alright, you carry Dee in lo and uh... I guess I can sign the papers? If you want? And you go with Dee to the back while they uh...do whatever they need to do?" He asked, figuring out the plan.

Dee was quiet and he looked out the window, marveling at just how big the building was. It was way bigger then the warehouse, or well, what he thinks the warehouse looked like from the outside.

Logan nods, getting out of the car and going to Dee’s side.

Dee looks up when he gets out of the car, and he slowly attempts to open his door. Once he did he stood up, but he must've stood up way too quickly cause everything spun around suddenly. He grew pale before collasping. Luckily he fell right on Logan and he had his eyes shut, his breathing was uneven and he took shaky breaths in.

Roman practically jumped out of the car when he saw Dee collasping. "Logan, go in now! I'll sign the papers!" He quickly got in the car to grab his keys, rushing around.

Logan nods, scooping Dee up and rushing into the hospital.

Dee whimpered at the sudden movement, gripping onto him hard like he was afraid of falling. But he also hid his head in his chest, the rush of light hurting his eyelids. He could hear voices but it sounded like it was coming from underwater.

Luckily, nurses saw them and rushed over. A few nurses were right behind and guestered Logan over to one of their back rooms. They were speaking to each other while they told Logan to set him on the bed in the room. "We'll take it from here. Can you wait in the waiting room for us, please?"

Logan goes in the room and places him on the bed. “I-I uh okay.” Logan stammers before hesitatingly leaving the room and going back to the waiting room, extremely worried and nervous.

Dee doesn't know what's going on, as he felt hands and what he thinks is needles on his arm. "Ma... Master...?" He shakily whispers under his breath and manages to open his eyes. Only to see that Logan has left and he sighed, his head resting on the pillow once more.

Roman is filling out the paperwork when he looks up. "What they say?" He asked, holding up his wrist for Logan to scent if he needed it. He knows that calms him down most of the time, but he isn't sure about right now.

“That they were going to take over now.” Logan says as he softly holds Roman wrist, smelling his scent which calms a part of Logan but he is still nervous and worried.

"It's gonna be alright, Lo. They'll fix him. I promise you that they'll fix him. Everything will be alright, okay? Sh..." Roman released calming and reassuring scents for him and rubbed his back. He even started nuzzling his cheek with his own. "They'll fix him, and we will go home and really get to know him. Dee is a great name for him by the way. It's a fantastic name." He cooed, trying to calm him down the best he could.

Logan smiles softly as the calming and reassuring scents work, he nuzzles his cheek back gently.

Roman smiles back, glad that the scents were working in calming him down. He nuzzles his cheek back gently and sent more scents his way. And he sighed softly, honestly very worried and concerned himself. But he tries to hide it for Logan's sake.

About a half hour later a nurse comes out and walks over to Logan. "You're the one with the scarred omega right?"

Logan nods, becoming extremely worried. “Yes, is he okay?”

Roman is silent, waiting and squeezing Logan's hand.

"He is stable for now. We think he'll be okay in the long run, yes. He's going to need lots of treatment though. His blood cell count was...we haven't ever seen it as low as his was. We had to do a blood transfusion, mulitiple IVs, an oxygen tank since he was having troubles breathing on his own. He is... He's pretty sick."

Logan nods, still extremely worried but is relieved to here that they think he will be okay in the long run at least and Roman’s presence alone is helping him stay calm. “Ah...” Logan manages to say. Due to the abuse he went through from that alpha, Logan is quite awkward when it comes to social things and is extremely quiet often only answering with one or two words. It took a while for him to properly talk and open up to Roman, Roman being one of few people Logan can properly talk without only using one or two words.

Roman is extremely relieved, worried but relieved. As long as they think he'll be fine in the long run that's good enough for him. That means that he has a good enough chance to survive. He squeezes Logan's hand reassuringly when he hears the single word, knowing exactly what he wants to say. He knows that Logan can't say more then one word in front of strangers, so he often steps in and talks for him. And he knows what he wants to say just from his expression and his tone of that single word. "We are very grateful. Thank you so so much. We are both just... Thank you. Is there any chance we can see him?"

"Yes, you may. Right this way." She points down the hallway and smiles, "No need to thank me. I'm just doing my job." She smiles and opens up a door.

Logan smiles softly at Roman, silently thanking him. When she opens the door, Logan goes in the room quickly with extreme worry all over his face.

Roman smiles back, squeezing his hand yet again to silently say that he doesn't have to thank him. Then he followed them, he stays a bit behind Logan making sure he gets to Dee first.

There are quite a lot of wires going into both of his arms, including the poles beside him. And loud beeping was coming from the heart monitor. Dee looked paler then before, his sticky hair plastered to his forehead. And a mask was over his mouth and nose. He definitely didn't look good right now at all, he looked close to death with how pale he is. He appeared to be asleep, his eyes closed and was resting luckily.

Logan lets out a breath he didn’t know he was holding when he sees Dee but worry still runs his mind currently.

Roman swallows at the sight of Dee. That...didn't look very good... He looked back at the nurse to see that she's already gone, huh, well... Then he glanced at Logan to see his transfixed stare at Dee. "Hey, hey, he's going to be okay. Sh... I know it's a lot. But he's going to be fine." He hugs Logan tightly and rubs his back. Just then he heard a groan come from the omega and he looks over, watching Dee slowly open his eyes and look around.

Logan hugs back, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath in. Logan then looks immediately at Dee when he heard the groan. “H-How are you feeling, Dee?”

Roman looks over as well, holding in his breath. He draws up a chair besides his bed for Logan and himself. Knowing Logan probably won't want to leave his side for a while, knowing him at least.

Dee stared at them, as if he has to really concentrate as to who they are. He was silent for several moments before he swallowed and finally spoke. "T-Tired... Not.... Not good..." He groaned out, Winching a bit. "Hurts..? Hurts... Master...didn't leave me?" He sounded a bit heartbroken, like he actually thought that Logan was going to leave him here and won't come back.

Logan sits down, once again silently thanking Roman. When Dee speaks Logan feels guilty for leaving the room and making Dee think he was going to abandon him. “N-No, I would never. I will n-never. I promise.”

Ran shakes his head without saying anything, as if silently saying don't mention it. He focuses on Dee and shakes his head, "No... No, we won't leave you. We won't ever leave you. Okay?"

Dee blinked between them and he could see some emotion in Logan's eyes. He couldn't place what it was though... He cleared his throat a bit then sucked in a breath. "Really...? Oh... Okay... I'm sorry, Master... Sorry... I thought that... Won't think that again..." He silently stared at the wall for a moment before blinking and coming to. "What's... this?" He points weakly at the mask, it wasn't hurting and he could obviously still talk, but he didn't know what it was for.

“I-It’s a mask that helps you b-breathe.” Logan explains, gripping Roman’s hand gently to remind himself that Roman is here which calms him.

Roman grips his hand back, gently rubbing his thumb along logans hand. He scoots his chair closer and hugs Logan from the side, still holding his hand. He released calming scents again, wanting Logan to know that he's here and not going to leave him.

"Oh... Oh... Okay... Feels funny... Mhm..." He whispers, his voice slurring together. "Mhm... No... No bad men? Bad...alphas... You better Master... Like you... Don't make me eat pups like old Master's... Pups don't taste very good..." He was obviously high off of some drug. But it was making him calm, maybe a bit too calm.

Logan smiles softly at the scents, it working though when Dee says this some bad memories attack his mind but he manages to stay composed and not curl up in a ball. His alpha never made him eat his pups luckily though he did often kill them in front of Logan or forced Logan to kill them. “N-No bad men a-are here... I-I won’t, I-I promise with all my heart.”

Roman is dead silent at what Dee says. He doesn't even know what to say back to that. But he does feel Logan tighten up so he moves his free hand up to massage his scalp. "There is none of that here, we promise. None of that will happen ever again. Now...try to relax okay? Get some sleep. We'll be here when you wake up, little one. Sh..." Roman goes over to pull the blanket over him some more and sighs softly, going right back to Logan side.

Dee glances between both of them. "Okay... Okay... Uh... Is... Is Master okay?" Even in his daze state he noticed his stuttering and little bit of shakingness. Then he blinks at Roman and nods, "Okay... I'll get some sleep...for you Master... Want to be good...for you... Good slave... Mhm... Good slut..." He yawns, then smiles his eyes dropping closed.

Logan has started to space out remembering every pup, what he wanted to name them, and how they died, trembling and leaning into Roman’s warmth. Logan flinches for second when Roman touches his scrap but when he smells Roman’s scent a half second later he stops and leans into Roman’s hand.

Roman could feel him trembling and could feel his flinch, he removes his hand only to see him leaning into it. So he continued massaging his scalp, and he hugs him close and protectively. "Master is alright, he's okay. It's just been a long day for him. You aren't a slave or a slut. You are Dee. And your the best omega anybody could ask for. Now sh... Sh... Go to sleep." He watches Dee slowly fall asleep. Then he digs in his pockets for his earpods that he always carries with him just in case. He places them in Logan's ears then brings out his phone as well. He scrolls through his music to find the playlist he had downloaded just for when Logan gets his flashbacks. He starts playing it then he gently rocked him side to side, humming softly and releasing his calming scents some more. "You're not there, Logan. You're not there. Sh... Focus on the music. Focus on me." He whispered calmly to him.

Logan’s trembling soon stops after Roman starts playing music and releasing his calming scents. Logan relaxes, slowly hugging Roman gently and tired as flashbacks can be tiring and he didn’t get much sleep last night.

Roman smiles when he could feel his trembling slowly coming to a stop. That's great. That's...really really great. And he smiles even more at feeling him relaxing under his hands. Thank God he downloaded that playlist, it has been a lifesaver more then once. He knew he'd be tired right after this so he looks around the room. And luckily there were a small couch at the far end of the wall. Gently he scoops up Logan in his arms and brings him over to the couch, laying Logan on his chest and grabbing a blanket and pillow from where he was. He laid the blanket on them and puts the pillow behind his head. He places a gentle kiss on Logan's forehead then rubs his back. "Go to sleep, Lo. I'll be here. I won't leave you." He whispers to him, yawning himself. It's been a tiring few hours.

“G-Goodnight, Ro.” Logan yawns softly before falling asleep and gently snuggling Roman in his sleep.

"Goodnight, Lo." He whispers back, and he stays awake for a bit longer. Just to make sure that Logan is asleep and Dee is too. The heart monitor is weirdly calming but at the same time stressful. But he sighs and lays down some more, having his arms gently protective around Logan. And he falls asleep snuggling Logan back and he sleeps peacefully.

Logan sleeps peacefully for several hours until a nightmare attacked his first peaceful sleep in around a month causing him to shift slightly and whimper.

Roman was still sound asleep, but when he heard that whimper subconsciously he held him tighter and released more calming scents. "Mhm... No... Bad...sound... Mhm... Not that... Not..." He mumbled in his sleep then turned his head, he rolled over and held Logan almost like a stuffed animal close to his chest.

Logan relaxes, the nightmare stopping. Logan snuggles closer to Roman chest in his sleep.

Roman snuggled him, wrapping his arms and legs around him in his sleep. He immediately went back to sleep once Logan snuggled up to him, even subconsciously knowing that he's fine now.

Just as they were about to go back to sleep Dee's heart monitor started beeping more intensely. And the sounds of the bed rocking back and forth can be heard. Followed by what sounded like crying and mumbling incoherent words.

Logan immediately wakes up, jumping in surprise and falls off the couch before looking at Dee, panicking.

Dee is kicking out at something, his head shaking back and forth and sobbing. Though he was clearly asleep, just having a nightmare by the looks of things. He was doing that for a moment before he suddenly screams at the top of his lungs and jump up, his eyes open with a panic and his breathing is heavy. He brings up his knees to his chest and sobs quietly into his knees.

Roman was starting to wake up when he heard the loud thuds, but at the loud scream he was instantly awake. He snapped awake and nearly fell ontop of logan. But he manages to catch himself and look around to where the screaming came from. Only to see it was Dee who was crying and shaking. He frowns and leans over to Logan to take out the earpods, then he slowly walked over to Dee. "Hey... Hey, it's okay... It's alright. Sh..." He cooed. But Dee only jumped away from him, and looked at him with pure terror.

Logan gets up from the floor slowly and carefully approaches Dee slowly. “Hey.. Dee... it’s okay... you’re safe...”

Roman slowly backs away then, he knows if he keeps going towards him that would only make him panic more.

Dee whips over when he hears Logan and sucks in a breath. His eyes are unfocused for a bit and he just stares at Logan. Until he shakes his head to clear it out. Slowly he registers what he's saying and he hiccups. "M-Master...?" He managed to say, his body shaking. "I... I... N-No... Not... Mhm..." He whispers, shaking his head and curling back into a ball.

“Did you have a nightmare, Dee?” Logan says softly, slowly moving closer to Dee.

"Y-Yes... M-Master..." He hiccuped, hiding his face in his knees the best he could. Though the tugging on the wires were making it hard to do. But he ignored it and kept tugging, sobbing quietly. He seemed to be forcing himself to calm down, probably from his nails digging into his legs so hard that it's causing it to bleed. But it's making himself snap back to reality, which is what he wanted. "Sorry... Sorry... Stupid... M' stupid... I'll... Go back to sleep now... Very.. very... Very sorry...to wake you up.. very... I..." He sucks in a harsh breath then forced himself to lay back down.

“Hey, it’s okay... I’m sorry you had a nightmare... You aren’t stupid.. it’s not your fault, Dee...” Logan speaks softly.

Dee hesitantly glanced at him, still tears pouring down his cheeks but he shakes his head. He immediately wipes it all away and digs his nails into his face to keep from crying some more. "I... Not... Not okay... Not... I.... Why...aren't you... whipping me... Master? I don't.. I... I... Stupid... Stupid...slut... Not..." He takes a shaky breath, "Every night...have nightmares... It's fine... It's... It's okay..."

“You aren’t a s-slut. You are Dee and you are amazing. I’m sorry you have nightmares every night.... I do too.” Logan is extremely worried about Dee.

Dee immediately shook his head, his name now is Dee of course. But he isn't amazing. He is anything but. He's a slut, that's what he is... Though at his whisper he glanced up at him, few bits of blood coming from his cheeks. "Master...has nightmares... N-Not... Not possible... Not... Lying... Lying... Trick... Master's trick... Lie... Master's lie..." He shook his head again and brought up the blanket over his head. "Lie..." He whispered, hiding himself in a tight ball.

Roman glanced over at Logan and bit his lip nervously. Logan wasn't like this at all back when he saved him. Sure, he did hide away when he had nightmares but... He didn't hurt himself or act like this. He wasn't sure what to do.

Logan doesn’t know what to do too. “I can promise you that I am not lying...” Worry and Concern overwhelming Logan as he speaks softly.

Dee could hear the worry in his voice, and it's very clear now. He at first didn't even know what that emotion was. Until he had to realize it sounded a lot like the others when they're being taken away by the alphas. Worry... And fear of course. He swallows and slowly peeks out to look at him. "Master's...don't...get nightmares... They... They give it..." He hiccuped, "You... I... I'm... I'm confused..." He admitted slowly as it was clear that his hands were trembling against his cheeks.

“Not all Masters are like that... I-I used to have a M-Master like that.... B-But now I-I’m free.” Logan says as he slowly ends up next to Dee and carefully and slowly tries to lower Dee’s hands from his face.

"You.... You... You...did?" He had to repeat himself as he tried to focus on his words rather then his shaking and ever growing panic in his mind. "How... You... I... Huh?" He asked, completely confused as to how he had a Master before too. But he's a Master... How does that...make sense... When he moves towards his hands he whimpered and shut his eyes, flinching violently from his hands. Only to open his eyes and look at him, his hands moving with his movements.

Logan slowly and gently moves his hands down away from his face. “I’m sorry for scaring you, I don’t want you to hurt yourself... Yes, I did. I’m sorry you had to go through all that.”

Dee doesn't open his eyes at all while he has hold of his hands. He keeps whimpering and holding his breath, expecting to get hit from him. Ever so slowly he opens his eyes once he moves his hands down then blinks. "You... Bad...hurt... Bad..." He finally sucks in a gasp of air and hugs himself. He doesn't know how to handle of this. That he's apologizing to him. That he really had a Master before too. None of this makes much sense to him. "I... I... I don't... I..." He shuts his eyes again and shakes his head, he was still shaking but it wasn't nearly as bad as before. And his breathing has gone down now that he's thinking of what Logan's saying. "Sorry...? Sorry... Sorry... Wake up bad... Sorry." He mumbled.

“It’s okay. I’m sorry for startling you. I was going to wake up from a nightmare soon most likely so you kinda saved me from another nightmare. Thank you.” Logan says softly.

"You...were? I uh... Um... I... Huh?" He definitely seemed confused at the thanks, he's never been...thanked before. He stares at him as if he's crazy, blinking and not saying anything else. He glances over at Roman to make sure he wasn't crazy and no... He's nodding along to what he's saying. Then he glanced back at Logan, he didn't know how to respond to that at all. Though, he guessed it's good that he...sorta saved him from another nightmare...he suppose?

Logan smiles softly at Dee.

"I... I... M' sorry? I uh... I'm... Why are...you saying sorry...to me? I'm... I'm confused... I'm... Why... I don't... Understand?" He stuttered, sounding very confused and lost. "Why... How... You had a Master... You..." He swallowed thickly, raising up his hands again but to just wipe away the tears some more so he could see. "Go...back to bed... Master... Sorry..." He knows he won't be able to get any more sleep for the rest of the night now though. Once he has a nightmare he normally can't fall asleep again, no matter how hard he tries.

Logan is extremely worried. “I want to make sure you are as okay as you can be currently....”

Dee stares at him, confused beyond belief. "Why...?" Why does he care if he's okay? Or as okay as he could be? Why... That doesn't make any sense to him. Why would a Master bother to make sure he's okay? This doesn't make any sense to him...

Logan has concern and worry all over his face and body language.

"B-Because we care about you." Roman finally speaks up, he wanted Logan to take this over since he seems to trust him more. But he knew he won't know what to say back to that. "Because... We... Logan here...as your Master...wants you to be healthy, mentally and physically... He isn't like your other Master's... He much rather prefer you to be healthy for him..." He mumbled, hoping he was saying the right thing.

Dee glances over at Roman and blinks, then stared at Logan. "Want me...to be healthy...?" He slowly comprehends that finding it really strange. "Oh... Oh... That's... Uh... Okay?"

Logan nods, that being exactly what he wanted to say but just couldn’t figure out how to say, silently thanking Roman.

Dee is silent for a moment, "For...breeding? Gonna...breed me? Is that why...you want me healthy? Am I...a breed... slave...?" He asked hesitantly, course he won't mind being a breeding slave. It's better then being a normal slave like he was.

Roman frowns at Dee and shakes his head, "No, no, Hun. We aren't going to touch you like that. Never. Unless you want to. And only if you positively sure. But that's not for a long time. We want you healthy cause we like to see you happy. We want to help you in any way we can. I think... We should walk around a bit, yeah? Since I don't think any of us will get any more sleep." He glances at logan, "I can go get a wheelchair for him?" He offered.

Logan is stunned by Dee’s words and has no clue what to say. When Roman offers to get the wheelchair he slowly shakes his head no. “N-No I’ll go get it...” Before going to find a wheelchair.

Dee glanced between them, confused as to why they want him happy. But he doesn't say anything. Instead he watches him closely, and watches Logan go out and get a wheelchair silently. He feels like he done something wrong, or maybe said something wrong? He isn't sure...

Roman watches him with worry. "Hang on one moment, okay? Be right back." He said to Dee before stepping out and following Logan. "Lo? Lo? Are you okay? You were stuttering and shaking back there." He says with worry.

Logan is shaking as memorys pound into his mind and tears flow down his face. He slowly shakes his head no before hugging Roman.

A lone omega runs down an alleyway, he didn't have a single idea where he was going or where he even was. His only thought was to run. He only wore a thong and a collar with a leash that was dragging behind him, clearly a sign that he was a slave to some alpha. His hands were tied and he had a muzzle strapped to his mouth. And was covered in scars from head to toe, half of his body being burned by flames. And he was in heat, heavily in heat.

Logan, a beta, had been walking to a bookstore when he smelt the lone omega in heat and could tell something was wrong. Logan quickly figured out where the scent was coming from and ran into the alleyway to help.

The smell of fear was coming off in waves from this one omega, plus the smell of heat. It was strong enough to attract anybody nearby really. But he didn't know that. He was too terrified to even think properly. The only thoughts going through his mind was to run away. Run before his masters catch him. When he saw somebody running towards him he froze, trying to step back only to fall on the pavement. He whimpered and whined, sobbing loudly and pleading. His arms and hands over his face to protect himself and his entire body trembling and violently shaking. He wasn't even sure if he was breathing or not, judging by how badly his chest was caving in it definitely didn't feel like he was. He could smell the distant scent that came from him but he couldn't concentrate long enough to figure out that he was a beta.

Logan rushed to his side. “Hey, calm down. I’m not going to hurt you. Can you tell me what is going on?”

He gave a yelp of surprise when he rushed over to him, he sobbed shutting his eyes in fear. Then he shook his head, tears streaming down his eyes and he looked so scared and terrified. Just then he heard what sounded like footsteps coming down the other side of the alleyway and he gave a muffled scream, he could recongize that scent anywhere. He was frozen in fear though, his eyes even wider. He's going to die... He's going to die... They're gonna kill him. It's all over.

Logan gets the sense that whoever was making those footsteps isn’t good. “I’m going to pick you up, sorry if it hurts.” Logan says before picking the omega up, using adrenaline he starts to run out of the alleyway.

He makes a tiny noise before he's suddenly picked up. He didn't even hear what Logan had just said so when he's suddenly picked up he nearly jumped so badly he just about fell from his arms. Luckily he didn't and he was in shock to find him running away. What...is he doing?! He looked behind to see that luckily they got out of there just in time before the alphas had gotten to where they just were. His gaze landed on Logan and he whimpered behind the muzzle, holding his hands close to his chest. He was still scared, this beta could be taking him to a group of alphas for all he knows.

Logan keeps running, heading back quickly to his apartment. He hopes that his memory of one his roommate who happens to be an alpha saying he was heading out is correct. As much as he trusts him he thinks the omega isn’t going to be comfortable with an alpha nearby currently.

The omega was crying the entire way, scared of what was to happen and become of him. What if Master's follow him? What if he's heading to New Master's? What if he's going to hurt him himself? There's so many what ifs and he's so terrified right now. He didn't stop crying even when Logan got into the apartment and had closed the door. By then his hands were raised to protect himself while he was crying. His cheeks covered in tears and his eyes red and puffy.

Logan quickly locks the door before placing him on the couch gently. Logan carefully removes the muzzle, speaking softly to him. “Hey, you’re safe. I promise that no one is going to hurt you. I’m trying to help you.

He gave a cry when he was placed on the couch before stopping and looking down, not harmful? Not harmful. Okay. Then he flinched and whimpered, crying out when he moved to touch him. Only to realize he's taking off the muzzle. There were obvious signs that it's been on his mouth for a very long time, his peeling and blistering skin is anything to go by. When he opened his mouth the other could see that his tongue is completely missing. He hiccuped and curled up against the couch, shaking his head. "M-Master... Master... Master... He... You... I... I can't... No... I..." He stuttered over himself, his breathing quick. He was obviously too scared to even make much sense. The thong basically did nothing and he was making a small mess on the couch by his slick.

Logan quickly grabs some of his own spare clothes. “I need you to try to calm down a bit. I have some spare clothes you can borrow.” Logan is worried about this omega. From a past relationship he knew a small bit about how the omega is most likely feeling right now.

"N-No... No... Need... Need Master's...permission... I can't... Get in trouble... Trouble bad.... Trouble... I... I can't get... No.... No clothes..." He frantically shakes his head, looking at the clothes as if it'll burn him, which might not be far from the truth judging by how many scars he has. He tries to take deep breaths in, but it was so hard when his panicked thoughts are going so crazy right now. "I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." He whispered, shaking. "Gonna... Gonna...sell me? Take...to Master's or... Or... I..."

“It’s okay. I’m got going to any of that. I’m to call an ambulance and police, they are trained for situations like this and it’s going to help much better than I can on my own.”

"I... But... What.... They'll..." He takes another shaky breath to try and concentrate on talking. "Master's... Master's...in... Master's are in...work for police... Alphas work...for police... Black uniforms... Black uniforms with handcuffs... I think that's police... Will get me... They will get me." He says shakily, trying to calm down the best he could. Luckily it was getting easier and easier as he looked around the place and as time went by, he thought if he was gonna sell him he would be calling around already.

Logan is very worried by this. “Okay, let me think for a second.” Logan begins to think about what he should do, assessing every reasonable option.

He shakily nods, "A-Are you... Are you...my Master now...?" He asked hesitantly, then shut up so he could think. He was quiet, staring at him then everything around them taking the place in. He didn't understand what most of these things do, in all honesty... Even though he was curious he stayed perfectly still, not wanting to move unless told to. He didn't want to test the patience of this beta.

"Hello?" A voice entered the room, the front door being opened and the sound of keys being jangled could be heard.

Logan immediately chokes on his own tongue when he says that. “N-No. uh, um.” Logan is seriously caught off guard by that question.

"I-I... Huh...? But you...saved me...? You own...me now? I'm... I'm confused?" He stared at him, not understanding why he denied it. Either he is his new master or...he's being sold off... But he said no to being sold off so he's...really confused right now. Just as he was starting to finally calm down the door had opened and he jumped up. And his eyes instantly widened in fear when he smelt the alpha smell.

"Lo? You're back already too? Turns out that theater place was a ditch, such a shame too." Roman walked over to the living room and he froze at the scene before him. He was about ready to take off his bag when he spotted the nearly naked man on their couch. And he was definitely in heat. His nose winkled and he glanced at Logan. "Uh... Lo... Care to explain why a nearly naked omega that in heavy heat is currently in our apartment? Did you order a prostitute or something?"

“On my way to the bookstore I found this omega running from someone who he calls ‘Master’ who is most likely someone who has abused him and might kill him. So, no I have not ordered a prostitute.”

"Ah... Well, that's a shame. Cause my hormones are going bonkers right now. He..." Roman took a moment to process everything he just said. He glanced back at Logan, "Is it like... with you?" He asked, knowing about Logan's past. He was the one who helped him break from his alphas control after all.

The omega was dead quiet, he stared at Roman in pure horror. Is this who he's going to give him too?! He couldn't even ask any questions, all that came out was little peeps and hiccups.

“Yes, it is like that.” Logan can sense that the omega is more than terrified so he turns. “He’s not going to hurt you. I’m not selling you or letting you get hurt. He is a great friend of mine, I know him well and he is isn’t going to take advantage of you, I promise.

"Oh... Gotcha..." Roman takes a deep breath, trying to remember what he did with logan back then. Be a rock and ground him. Comfort him... Okay. Very slowly he kneeled down so he wasn't towering over the quivering omega. And he forced himself to push back his instincts on breeding this Omega. He clearly doesn't need that. And very slowly he scoots a bit forward so he was kneeling before the omega. And he let out calming scents. "I promise i won't ever hurt you, alright? I promise on my life. Can you take a breath for me? Focus on my voice and my scent. Sh... Sh... Breathe..."

The omega didn't know what was happening. But when Logan turned to him he looked over. Only to swallow and let out a few more peeps, but he seemed a bit calmer at that. Not take advantage... He jumped when Roman moved, only to blink when he kneeled down to the ground. He didn't know how to even respond to this. He stared at Roman then at Logan, being completely baffled and confused. "W-What...? But I...need a Master.... Need... I can't... Please? Can I have a Master? Please? I can't... I don't know...what to do with myself... Please..." He begged to them, clearly conditioned to needing a Master for everything.

Logan sighs softly, knowing this mindset more than he would like to. “You don’t need a Master, I promise. What they have done to you is wrong and what they have told you about needing a Master is false.” Logan speaks calmly and softly. Letting out calming scents like Roman but they are definitely not as strong as Roman’s due to some events from his past.

"I... I... N-No... I... I need..." He stuttered, shaking his head with tears in his eyes. He sounded devasted, like somebody told him his dog just died. He put his head in his hands and sobbed loudly once more, crying as if he lost something precious to him. "I... No... Not wrong... Not bad... No... They weren't... N-No... Please... Please..." He sobbed, "I need... A master.... Please!!" He begged, he looked around and noticed the wall behind him. He stood up and started slamming his head against the wall with enough force to make the wall shake. "I'm bad! Bad! Bad!!"

"I'll be your Master!" Roman blurted out, he didn't want to, obviously, but he didn't know how else to calm him down.

Logan quickly puts his arm in between him and the wall. “Calm down. You aren’t bad. If you need a Master, I will be your Master.” Logan says trying to keep his voice steady and calm.

"Are you sure, Logan? He... He's worse off then you were... And..." Roman said nervously, whispering to him. He isn't certain about Logan taking care of him, it might trigger some memories...

He immediately stops when he puts an arm between him. Then freezes when they both shouted that they were gonna be his master's. He looked back and stared between them. Then he took a shaky breath and nods, he stands perfectly still as some blood trickle down his head. "Okay... Master's... I'm... I'm sorry... I'm very sorry..." He sat back down, his head down and he immediately calmed down.

“I... I am not completely sure...” Logan whispers back, admitting he isn’t completely comfortable with taking care of him as he already close to an ‘episode’. Logan quickly gets a first aid kit before starting to treat the wounds on the omega the best he can.

"Okay, let me take care of him. He'll listen to me more anyways since I'm an alpha. He might question later why he's listening to a beta. It's alright." Roman whispers to him, then moves out of his way. Only to help him care for the wound on the omegas head. "Or do you think we should let him choose? I... I don't really know. You gravitated towards me but that might just be cause I kept getting in your way back then..."

He sat perfectly still while they tended to his wound, not even moving a bit.

“I don’t really know either. I think we should let him choose so he can get used to choosing for himself easier?...” Logan whispers as he and Roman care for the wound.

"Yeah, thats a good idea. It'll be a nice first step to getting him used to that. Jesus, can he take one of your heat suppressors first? It is so hard trying to concentrate with that heat smell." He says with a low growl in his voice, but he shakes his head and groans.

Logan nods, quickly getting one as he notes that he’s running low on them before returning and crouching in front of the omega. “Hey, I need you to take this. It doesn’t hurt, I promise.”

Roman scoots a bit back once he rushes off to compose himself. He knows it'll take about twenty minutes for it to really take effect but at least he'll have taken it.

He slowly looks up once he was addressed and he looks down at the pill. He debates on whether he should take it or not. Before swallowing his fear and gets the pill, quickly swallowing it dry. He is scared of taking it of course, since his master's did gave them drugs a lot, but he didn't want to anger any of them either.

“They aren’t harmful, they help a lot in heat. They also help my friend, Roman, keep control of himself and his instincts better.” Logan says trying to reassure him that he is safe.

"Okay, Master... Thank you. I'm sorry I hurt other Master from my heat... Why isn't he breeding me...? Or you?" He asked, finally looking up at both of them. Then he bites his lip, "Sorry for asking questions... Am I allowed to ask questions, Master's?"

Roman shivered at how dull his voice sounded. Yep... Exactly like how Logan sounded... "Hey, little omega." He scoots closer to him, keeping his hands down onto the rug. "We have a question for you. And yes, you may ask as many questions as your heart wants. You wont get in trouble by it. No question is dumb. And no breeding, we don't do breeding here. Unless you want it." He takes a breath, "Would you want me as your master or Logan here? You get to choose who you want to follow, is that alright?"

“It is not your fault.” Logan shivers with Roman, remembering when he was like this. Logan nods, agreeing with Roman and looking in between the omega and Roman slowly.

He was silent, looking between both of them. He...gets to choose? That's...really strange. Sometimes he does have two or three Master's at a time. So this is strange. And he is scared at picking the wrong one and the other being angry at him. As he debates this he bites his lip nervously hugging himself. Very slowly he points at Logan, he trusted him more then Roman right now. Especially since he's a beta. Then he quickly looked at Roman, only to flinch and look away.

"Hey, hey, that's good. Thank you for choosing and answering us. Here," He gets up to go to the kitchen, and he comes back with half a cookie. "A treat for being so good for us so far." He gives him the cookie and luckily he takes it, but he glances at Logan. "You're gonna be up for this?"

Logan nods hesitantly. “Y-Yes.”

Roman obviously hears his stutter and he smiles softly, "Come here." He stands up and backs away so the omega won't think he's towering over him or anything. And he hugs Logan, "You can do this, okay? I know you can. You've come so so far. If it ever gets too much you can tell him to stay in your room and come to mine, okay? Or tell him to listen and follow me. I won't mind it at all." He whispers to his ear.

He glances at the cookie and sniffs it hesitantly, he's never seen this before... Strange... It doesn't smell bad or rotten so that's good... He slowly takes a nibble from the cookie but once he tastes the flavor his eyes widened. He shovels the entire thing in his mouth and happily chews it, loving the taste. "Thank you!" He says around his mouthful.

Logan hugs back, nodding softly.

Roman gives a gentle squeeze, "So... We should probably take this guy to the hospital first. He looks pretty...thin and sickly... He might have to stay overnight just by the looks of him... You get him in the car and I pack a bag?" He asked, thinking that was probably the best course of action.

Logan nods, turning to help the omega. “We’re going to get you to a hospital, okay?”

"Hos...pital....? What's that, Master?" He asked, taking his hand a bit shakily to stand up. He got dizzy when he stood up though and had to grip on the couch to keep steady and not fall. Taking a few shaky breaths he tried to stop the room from spinning.

Roman rushed into his room to grab his back and start packing.

Logan helps him stand shifting him so he is supporting the omega. “It’s a place where doctors work and they help heal sick and injuried people. They are good.”

He whimpered when he moved him, thinking he was going to toss him to the ground and force him to move. But instead he blinked and was shocked to see him actually supporting him. Uh... "O-Oh... No... No previous... Master's...? No...cops?" He asked shakily, his head hurting the more he moved. But he forced himself to keep going for Logan.

Logan nods, quickly picking him up carefully and softly. “None of that, I promise.” Logan speaks softly.

"O-Okay... Thank you, Master." He squeaked and tried to hold in a small scream when he picked him up. But he took a shaky breath to calm down. "I... You're...a better Master already... I... I like you more..." He whispered under his breath as he held on to him, blinking at the sunlight once they got outside and hissing softly. "M-Master... Other Master isn't mad that I choose you, right? You're not mad either?"

“Neither of us are mad, I promise.” Logan says as he places the omega in the car.

"O-Okay... Okay... Thank you, Master. I'm sorry for punishing myself. I'm very sorry." He says, sitting down in the car very stock still. He wanted to be good for his new master after all.

Roman came jogging over with a bag, "Alright, I got snacks and a change of clothes for all of us. Here's I assume the clothes you tried to give him? It was laying on the couch so..." He gave Logan the clothes, "Then toothbrush, toothpaste, uh... I don't think we need anything else... I'll come back tomorrow if he does need to stay."

Logan nods, taking the clothes. “Okay, good. thank you, Roman”

"Of course, man, of course." Roman gives him a quick hug before going over to place the bag in the truck. "I'll drive!" He says as he hops into the drivers seat and started up the car to turn on the heat as it was a bit chilly outside.

The omega watched them curiously, not having an idea what is going on. As the car started he jumped in surprise before resting back down, shifting side to side a bit nervously.

Logan sits next to the omega just in case he needs help. “You’re safe. Nothing is going to hurt you now.” Logan reassures the omega softly.

He glanced over at him once he sat next to him, blinking as to why he did that. And he stared at him at his reassuring words, just staring for several moments. Before giving a nod, "O-Okay... I uh... Okay..." He mumbles, and he didn't sound like he was convinced at all. But he agrees anyways.

"We'll both protect you, alright? Trust me. Your part of our pack now, so you don't have to worry about a thing. Just focus on getting better and we'll do the rest." Roman said as he started pulling out then driving along.

Logan nods. “Yes, Roman is correct.”

He is silent, then glances away. "A...pack?" His voice trembles and he swallows thickly. "I... No... No dark room? I... I don't....want to go back... to dark room... I'm... I'm sorry... I'll be good, I promise." He sounded on the verge of tears and he hiccuped, drawing his hands shakily around himself in a hug.

“No dark room, we promise. You don’t have to apologize.” Logan reassures softly, extremely concerned about the omega.

"Yes, Logan is right. No dark room. We'll make sure you don't ever go back there. We'll keep your room lit at all times. It's okay, it's okay, you've been so good for both of us. We're really happy at how good you've been." Roman replied back, keeping his voice soft. But he glances at Logan from the rear view mirror with concern. And he could tell that Logan feels exactly the same.

"R-Really? Oh... Okay... Thank you... Master's. Thank you." He sounded very relieved, incredibly relieved actually. "You're...good Master's... Thank you." He really did sound greatful, these Master's were already a lot better then his previous ones. He takes a shaky breath and pulls up his knees to his chest, trying to be small as possible.

Logan is extremely concerned for the omega.

Roman is silent for a bit, sharing Logan's exact worried thoughts. This one...might be worse then Logan's case... And he isn't sure if they can even help him. But he wants to try, he really wants to try. "So... Do you have a name? We can't keep calling you 'omega' or any of that forever."

He snapped out of his thoughts to look ahead at Roman. And he shook his head. "No, Master. I don't. I'm whatever a master wants to call me. Some name me slut... Others name me whore. Would you want to name me one of those?"

Logan’s concern quickly turns to worry. “No...”

"What?!" Roman sounded appalled, and concerned. Mixed with anger and disgust as well. "No! No... No, we are not calling you any of those names. Hell no. What about... Hm... What do you think, lo? You are his master after all."

He flinched when they all said no to that. Guess that's...a bad thing? He swallowed thickly and glanced to logan, waiting for his answer but remaining quiet this time.

“Hm.. Dee maybe?” Logan is extremely worried and nervous currently and that is one of the only names he can think of.

"Dee's a good name! What do you think about that name? We could change it if you don't like it." Roman says, honestly he's as worried if not more then Logan right now. But he's trying to lift up the mood the best he could. Which probably isn't very good but hey, he's trying.

"it's... It's okay... Thank you, Master. My name is dee now, thank you." He says, bowing his head. Really any name Logan chose he would've said it was good to. But this name he rather quite...liked. It had a nice ring to it, he thought.

Logan smiles softly, mentally thanking Roman for trying to lift the room.

Roman could tell that he was thanking him quietly, and he smiled at that. He drove into the parking spot at the hospital and sighed as he stopped the car and unbuckled. "Alright, you carry Dee in lo and uh... I guess I can sign the papers? If you want? And you go with Dee to the back while they uh...do whatever they need to do?" He asked, figuring out the plan.

Dee was quiet and he looked out the window, marveling at just how big the building was. It was way bigger then the warehouse, or well, what he thinks the warehouse looked like from the outside.

Logan nods, getting out of the car and going to Dee’s side.

Dee looks up when he gets out of the car, and he slowly attempts to open his door. Once he did he stood up, but he must've stood up way too quickly cause everything spun around suddenly. He grew pale before collasping. Luckily he fell right on Logan and he had his eyes shut, his breathing was uneven and he took shaky breaths in.

Roman practically jumped out of the car when he saw Dee collasping. "Logan, go in now! I'll sign the papers!" He quickly got in the car to grab his keys, rushing around.

Logan nods, scooping Dee up and rushing into the hospital.

Dee whimpered at the sudden movement, gripping onto him hard like he was afraid of falling. But he also hid his head in his chest, the rush of light hurting his eyelids. He could hear voices but it sounded like it was coming from underwater.

Luckily, nurses saw them and rushed over. A few nurses were right behind and guestered Logan over to one of their back rooms. They were speaking to each other while they told Logan to set him on the bed in the room. "We'll take it from here. Can you wait in the waiting room for us, please?"

Logan goes in the room and places him on the bed. “I-I uh okay.” Logan stammers before hesitatingly leaving the room and going back to the waiting room, extremely worried and nervous.

Dee doesn't know what's going on, as he felt hands and what he thinks is needles on his arm. "Ma... Master...?" He shakily whispers under his breath and manages to open his eyes. Only to see that Logan has left and he sighed, his head resting on the pillow once more.

Roman is filling out the paperwork when he looks up. "What they say?" He asked, holding up his wrist for Logan to scent if he needed it. He knows that calms him down most of the time, but he isn't sure about right now.

“That they were going to take over now.” Logan says as he softly holds Roman wrist, smelling his scent which calms a part of Logan but he is still nervous and worried.

"It's gonna be alright, Lo. They'll fix him. I promise you that they'll fix him. Everything will be alright, okay? Sh..." Roman released calming and reassuring scents for him and rubbed his back. He even started nuzzling his cheek with his own. "They'll fix him, and we will go home and really get to know him. Dee is a great name for him by the way. It's a fantastic name." He cooed, trying to calm him down the best he could.

Logan smiles softly as the calming and reassuring scents work, he nuzzles his cheek back gently.

Roman smiles back, glad that the scents were working in calming him down. He nuzzles his cheek back gently and sent more scents his way. And he sighed softly, honestly very worried and concerned himself. But he tries to hide it for Logan's sake.

About a half hour later a nurse comes out and walks over to Logan. "You're the one with the scarred omega right?"

Logan nods, becoming extremely worried. “Yes, is he okay?”

Roman is silent, waiting and squeezing Logan's hand.

"He is stable for now. We think he'll be okay in the long run, yes. He's going to need lots of treatment though. His blood cell count was...we haven't ever seen it as low as his was. We had to do a blood transfusion, mulitiple IVs, an oxygen tank since he was having troubles breathing on his own. He is... He's pretty sick."

Logan nods, still extremely worried but is relieved to here that they think he will be okay in the long run at least and Roman’s presence alone is helping him stay calm. “Ah...” Logan manages to say. Due to the abuse he went through from that alpha, Logan is quite awkward when it comes to social things and is extremely quiet often only answering with one or two words. It took a while for him to properly talk and open up to Roman, Roman being one of few people Logan can properly talk without only using one or two words.

Roman is extremely relieved, worried but relieved. As long as they think he'll be fine in the long run that's good enough for him. That means that he has a good enough chance to survive. He squeezes Logan's hand reassuringly when he hears the single word, knowing exactly what he wants to say. He knows that Logan can't say more then one word in front of strangers, so he often steps in and talks for him. And he knows what he wants to say just from his expression and his tone of that single word. "We are very grateful. Thank you so so much. We are both just... Thank you. Is there any chance we can see him?"

"Yes, you may. Right this way." She points down the hallway and smiles, "No need to thank me. I'm just doing my job." She smiles and opens up a door.

Logan smiles softly at Roman, silently thanking him. When she opens the door, Logan goes in the room quickly with extreme worry all over his face.

Roman smiles back, squeezing his hand yet again to silently say that he doesn't have to thank him. Then he followed them, he stays a bit behind Logan making sure he gets to Dee first.

There are quite a lot of wires going into both of his arms, including the poles beside him. And loud beeping was coming from the heart monitor. Dee looked paler then before, his sticky hair plastered to his forehead. And a mask was over his mouth and nose. He definitely didn't look good right now at all, he looked close to death with how pale he is. He appeared to be asleep, his eyes closed and was resting luckily.

Logan lets out a breath he didn’t know he was holding when he sees Dee but worry still runs his mind currently.

Roman swallows at the sight of Dee. That...didn't look very good... He looked back at the nurse to see that she's already gone, huh, well... Then he glanced at Logan to see his transfixed stare at Dee. "Hey, hey, he's going to be okay. Sh... I know it's a lot. But he's going to be fine." He hugs Logan tightly and rubs his back. Just then he heard a groan come from the omega and he looks over, watching Dee slowly open his eyes and look around.

Logan hugs back, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath in. Logan then looks immediately at Dee when he heard the groan. “H-How are you feeling, Dee?”

Roman looks over as well, holding in his breath. He draws up a chair besides his bed for Logan and himself. Knowing Logan probably won't want to leave his side for a while, knowing him at least.

Dee stared at them, as if he has to really concentrate as to who they are. He was silent for several moments before he swallowed and finally spoke. "T-Tired... Not.... Not good..." He groaned out, Winching a bit. "Hurts..? Hurts... Master...didn't leave me?" He sounded a bit heartbroken, like he actually thought that Logan was going to leave him here and won't come back.

Logan sits down, once again silently thanking Roman. When Dee speaks Logan feels guilty for leaving the room and making Dee think he was going to abandon him. “N-No, I would never. I will n-never. I promise.”

Ran shakes his head without saying anything, as if silently saying don't mention it. He focuses on Dee and shakes his head, "No... No, we won't leave you. We won't ever leave you. Okay?"

Dee blinked between them and he could see some emotion in Logan's eyes. He couldn't place what it was though... He cleared his throat a bit then sucked in a breath. "Really...? Oh... Okay... I'm sorry, Master... Sorry... I thought that... Won't think that again..." He silently stared at the wall for a moment before blinking and coming to. "What's... this?" He points weakly at the mask, it wasn't hurting and he could obviously still talk, but he didn't know what it was for.

“I-It’s a mask that helps you b-breathe.” Logan explains, gripping Roman’s hand gently to remind himself that Roman is here which calms him.

Roman grips his hand back, gently rubbing his thumb along logans hand. He scoots his chair closer and hugs Logan from the side, still holding his hand. He released calming scents again, wanting Logan to know that he's here and not going to leave him.

"Oh... Oh... Okay... Feels funny... Mhm..." He whispers, his voice slurring together. "Mhm... No... No bad men? Bad...alphas... You better Master... Like you... Don't make me eat pups like old Master's... Pups don't taste very good..." He was obviously high off of some drug. But it was making him calm, maybe a bit too calm.

Logan smiles softly at the scents, it working though when Dee says this some bad memories attack his mind but he manages to stay composed and not curl up in a ball. His alpha never made him eat his pups luckily though he did often kill them in front of Logan or forced Logan to kill them. “N-No bad men a-are here... I-I won’t, I-I promise with all my heart.”

Roman is dead silent at what Dee says. He doesn't even know what to say back to that. But he does feel Logan tighten up so he moves his free hand up to massage his scalp. "There is none of that here, we promise. None of that will happen ever again. Now...try to relax okay? Get some sleep. We'll be here when you wake up, little one. Sh..." Roman goes over to pull the blanket over him some more and sighs softly, going right back to Logan side.

Dee glances between both of them. "Okay... Okay... Uh... Is... Is Master okay?" Even in his daze state he noticed his stuttering and little bit of shakingness. Then he blinks at Roman and nods, "Okay... I'll get some sleep...for you Master... Want to be good...for you... Good slave... Mhm... Good slut..." He yawns, then smiles his eyes dropping closed.

Logan has started to space out remembering every pup, what he wanted to name them, and how they died, trembling and leaning into Roman’s warmth. Logan flinches for second when Roman touches his scrap but when he smells Roman’s scent a half second later he stops and leans into Roman’s hand.

Roman could feel him trembling and could feel his flinch, he removes his hand only to see him leaning into it. So he continued massaging his scalp, and he hugs him close and protectively. "Master is alright, he's okay. It's just been a long day for him. You aren't a slave or a slut. You are Dee. And your the best omega anybody could ask for. Now sh... Sh... Go to sleep." He watches Dee slowly fall asleep. Then he digs in his pockets for his earpods that he always carries with him just in case. He places them in Logan's ears then brings out his phone as well. He scrolls through his music to find the playlist he had downloaded just for when Logan gets his flashbacks. He starts playing it then he gently rocked him side to side, humming softly and releasing his calming scents some more. "You're not there, Logan. You're not there. Sh... Focus on the music. Focus on me." He whispered calmly to him.

Logan’s trembling soon stops after Roman starts playing music and releasing his calming scents. Logan relaxes, slowly hugging Roman gently and tired as flashbacks can be tiring and he didn’t get much sleep last night.

Roman smiles when he could feel his trembling slowly coming to a stop. That's great. That's...really really great. And he smiles even more at feeling him relaxing under his hands. Thank God he downloaded that playlist, it has been a lifesaver more then once. He knew he'd be tired right after this so he looks around the room. And luckily there were a small couch at the far end of the wall. Gently he scoops up Logan in his arms and brings him over to the couch, laying Logan on his chest and grabbing a blanket and pillow from where he was. He laid the blanket on them and puts the pillow behind his head. He places a gentle kiss on Logan's forehead then rubs his back. "Go to sleep, Lo. I'll be here. I won't leave you." He whispers to him, yawning himself. It's been a tiring few hours.

“G-Goodnight, Ro.” Logan yawns softly before falling asleep and gently snuggling Roman in his sleep.

"Goodnight, Lo." He whispers back, and he stays awake for a bit longer. Just to make sure that Logan is asleep and Dee is too. The heart monitor is weirdly calming but at the same time stressful. But he sighs and lays down some more, having his arms gently protective around Logan. And he falls asleep snuggling Logan back and he sleeps peacefully.

Logan sleeps peacefully for several hours until a nightmare attacked his first peaceful sleep in around a month causing him to shift slightly and whimper.

Roman was still sound asleep, but when he heard that whimper subconsciously he held him tighter and released more calming scents. "Mhm... No... Bad...sound... Mhm... Not that... Not..." He mumbled in his sleep then turned his head, he rolled over and held Logan almost like a stuffed animal close to his chest.

Logan relaxes, the nightmare stopping. Logan snuggles closer to Roman chest in his sleep.

Roman snuggled him, wrapping his arms and legs around him in his sleep. He immediately went back to sleep once Logan snuggled up to him, even subconsciously knowing that he's fine now.

Just as they were about to go back to sleep Dee's heart monitor started beeping more intensely. And the sounds of the bed rocking back and forth can be heard. Followed by what sounded like crying and mumbling incoherent words.

Logan immediately wakes up, jumping in surprise and falls off the couch before looking at Dee, panicking.

Dee is kicking out at something, his head shaking back and forth and sobbing. Though he was clearly asleep, just having a nightmare by the looks of things. He was doing that for a moment before he suddenly screams at the top of his lungs and jump up, his eyes open with a panic and his breathing is heavy. He brings up his knees to his chest and sobs quietly into his knees.

Roman was starting to wake up when he heard the loud thuds, but at the loud scream he was instantly awake. He snapped awake and nearly fell ontop of logan. But he manages to catch himself and look around to where the screaming came from. Only to see it was Dee who was crying and shaking. He frowns and leans over to Logan to take out the earpods, then he slowly walked over to Dee. "Hey... Hey, it's okay... It's alright. Sh..." He cooed. But Dee only jumped away from him, and looked at him with pure terror.

Logan gets up from the floor slowly and carefully approaches Dee slowly. “Hey.. Dee... it’s okay... you’re safe...”

Roman slowly backs away then, he knows if he keeps going towards him that would only make him panic more.

Dee whips over when he hears Logan and sucks in a breath. His eyes are unfocused for a bit and he just stares at Logan. Until he shakes his head to clear it out. Slowly he registers what he's saying and he hiccups. "M-Master...?" He managed to say, his body shaking. "I... I... N-No... Not... Mhm..." He whispers, shaking his head and curling back into a ball.

“Did you have a nightmare, Dee?” Logan says softly, slowly moving closer to Dee.

"Y-Yes... M-Master..." He hiccuped, hiding his face in his knees the best he could. Though the tugging on the wires were making it hard to do. But he ignored it and kept tugging, sobbing quietly. He seemed to be forcing himself to calm down, probably from his nails digging into his legs so hard that it's causing it to bleed. But it's making himself snap back to reality, which is what he wanted. "Sorry... Sorry... Stupid... M' stupid... I'll... Go back to sleep now... Very.. very... Very sorry...to wake you up.. very... I..." He sucks in a harsh breath then forced himself to lay back down.

“Hey, it’s okay... I’m sorry you had a nightmare... You aren’t stupid.. it’s not your fault, Dee...” Logan speaks softly.

Dee hesitantly glanced at him, still tears pouring down his cheeks but he shakes his head. He immediately wipes it all away and digs his nails into his face to keep from crying some more. "I... Not... Not okay... Not... I.... Why...aren't you... whipping me... Master? I don't.. I... I... Stupid... Stupid...slut... Not..." He takes a shaky breath, "Every night...have nightmares... It's fine... It's... It's okay..."

“You aren’t a s-slut. You are Dee and you are amazing. I’m sorry you have nightmares every night.... I do too.” Logan is extremely worried about Dee.

Dee immediately shook his head, his name now is Dee of course. But he isn't amazing. He is anything but. He's a slut, that's what he is... Though at his whisper he glanced up at him, few bits of blood coming from his cheeks. "Master...has nightmares... N-Not... Not possible... Not... Lying... Lying... Trick... Master's trick... Lie... Master's lie..." He shook his head again and brought up the blanket over his head. "Lie..." He whispered, hiding himself in a tight ball.

Roman glanced over at Logan and bit his lip nervously. Logan wasn't like this at all back when he saved him. Sure, he did hide away when he had nightmares but... He didn't hurt himself or act like this. He wasn't sure what to do.

Logan doesn’t know what to do too. “I can promise you that I am not lying...” Worry and Concern overwhelming Logan as he speaks softly.

Dee could hear the worry in his voice, and it's very clear now. He at first didn't even know what that emotion was. Until he had to realize it sounded a lot like the others when they're being taken away by the alphas. Worry... And fear of course. He swallows and slowly peeks out to look at him. "Master's...don't...get nightmares... They... They give it..." He hiccuped, "You... I... I'm... I'm confused..." He admitted slowly as it was clear that his hands were trembling against his cheeks.

“Not all Masters are like that... I-I used to have a M-Master like that.... B-But now I-I’m free.” Logan says as he slowly ends up next to Dee and carefully and slowly tries to lower Dee’s hands from his face.

"You.... You... You...did?" He had to repeat himself as he tried to focus on his words rather then his shaking and ever growing panic in his mind. "How... You... I... Huh?" He asked, completely confused as to how he had a Master before too. But he's a Master... How does that...make sense... When he moves towards his hands he whimpered and shut his eyes, flinching violently from his hands. Only to open his eyes and look at him, his hands moving with his movements.

Logan slowly and gently moves his hands down away from his face. “I’m sorry for scaring you, I don’t want you to hurt yourself... Yes, I did. I’m sorry you had to go through all that.”

Dee doesn't open his eyes at all while he has hold of his hands. He keeps whimpering and holding his breath, expecting to get hit from him. Ever so slowly he opens his eyes once he moves his hands down then blinks. "You... Bad...hurt... Bad..." He finally sucks in a gasp of air and hugs himself. He doesn't know how to handle of this. That he's apologizing to him. That he really had a Master before too. None of this makes much sense to him. "I... I... I don't... I..." He shuts his eyes again and shakes his head, he was still shaking but it wasn't nearly as bad as before. And his breathing has gone down now that he's thinking of what Logan's saying. "Sorry...? Sorry... Sorry... Wake up bad... Sorry." He mumbled.

“It’s okay. I’m sorry for startling you. I was going to wake up from a nightmare soon most likely so you kinda saved me from another nightmare. Thank you.” Logan says softly.

"You...were? I uh... Um... I... Huh?" He definitely seemed confused at the thanks, he's never been...thanked before. He stares at him as if he's crazy, blinking and not saying anything else. He glances over at Roman to make sure he wasn't crazy and no... He's nodding along to what he's saying. Then he glanced back at Logan, he didn't know how to respond to that at all. Though, he guessed it's good that he...sorta saved him from another nightmare...he suppose?

Logan smiles softly at Dee.

"I... I... M' sorry? I uh... I'm... Why are...you saying sorry...to me? I'm... I'm confused... I'm... Why... I don't... Understand?" He stuttered, sounding very confused and lost. "Why... How... You had a Master... You..." He swallowed thickly, raising up his hands again but to just wipe away the tears some more so he could see. "Go...back to bed... Master... Sorry..." He knows he won't be able to get any more sleep for the rest of the night now though. Once he has a nightmare he normally can't fall asleep again, no matter how hard he tries.

Logan is extremely worried. “I want to make sure you are as okay as you can be currently....”

Dee stares at him, confused beyond belief. "Why...?" Why does he care if he's okay? Or as okay as he could be? Why... That doesn't make any sense to him. Why would a Master bother to make sure he's okay? This doesn't make any sense to him...

Logan has concern and worry all over his face and body language.

"B-Because we care about you." Roman finally speaks up, he wanted Logan to take this over since he seems to trust him more. But he knew he won't know what to say back to that. "Because... We... Logan here...as your Master...wants you to be healthy, mentally and physically... He isn't like your other Master's... He much rather prefer you to be healthy for him..." He mumbled, hoping he was saying the right thing.

Dee glances over at Roman and blinks, then stared at Logan. "Want me...to be healthy...?" He slowly comprehends that finding it really strange. "Oh... Oh... That's... Uh... Okay?"

Logan nods, that being exactly what he wanted to say but just couldn’t figure out how to say, silently thanking Roman.

Dee is silent for a moment, "For...breeding? Gonna...breed me? Is that why...you want me healthy? Am I...a breed... slave...?" He asked hesitantly, course he won't mind being a breeding slave. It's better then being a normal slave like he was.

Roman frowns at Dee and shakes his head, "No, no, Hun. We aren't going to touch you like that. Never. Unless you want to. And only if you positively sure. But that's not for a long time. We want you healthy cause we like to see you happy. We want to help you in any way we can. I think... We should walk around a bit, yeah? Since I don't think any of us will get any more sleep." He glances at logan, "I can go get a wheelchair for him?" He offered.

Logan is stunned by Dee’s words and has no clue what to say. When Roman offers to get the wheelchair he slowly shakes his head no. “N-No I’ll go get it...” Before going to find a wheelchair.

A lone omega runs down an alleyway, he didn't have a single idea where he was going or where he even was. His only thought was to run. He only wore a thong and a collar with a leash that was dragging behind him, clearly a sign that he was a slave to some alpha. His hands were tied and he had a muzzle strapped to his mouth. And was covered in scars from head to toe, half of his body being burned by flames. And he was in heat, heavily in heat.

Logan, a beta, had been walking to a bookstore when he smelt the lone omega in heat and could tell something was wrong. Logan quickly figured out where the scent was coming from and ran into the alleyway to help.

The smell of fear was coming off in waves from this one omega, plus the smell of heat. It was strong enough to attract anybody nearby really. But he didn't know that. He was too terrified to even think properly. The only thoughts going through his mind was to run away. Run before his masters catch him. When he saw somebody running towards him he froze, trying to step back only to fall on the pavement. He whimpered and whined, sobbing loudly and pleading. His arms and hands over his face to protect himself and his entire body trembling and violently shaking. He wasn't even sure if he was breathing or not, judging by how badly his chest was caving in it definitely didn't feel like he was. He could smell the distant scent that came from him but he couldn't concentrate long enough to figure out that he was a beta.

Logan rushed to his side. “Hey, calm down. I’m not going to hurt you. Can you tell me what is going on?”

He gave a yelp of surprise when he rushed over to him, he sobbed shutting his eyes in fear. Then he shook his head, tears streaming down his eyes and he looked so scared and terrified. Just then he heard what sounded like footsteps coming down the other side of the alleyway and he gave a muffled scream, he could recongize that scent anywhere. He was frozen in fear though, his eyes even wider. He's going to die... He's going to die... They're gonna kill him. It's all over.

Logan gets the sense that whoever was making those footsteps isn’t good. “I’m going to pick you up, sorry if it hurts.” Logan says before picking the omega up, using adrenaline he starts to run out of the alleyway.

He makes a tiny noise before he's suddenly picked up. He didn't even hear what Logan had just said so when he's suddenly picked up he nearly jumped so badly he just about fell from his arms. Luckily he didn't and he was in shock to find him running away. What...is he doing?! He looked behind to see that luckily they got out of there just in time before the alphas had gotten to where they just were. His gaze landed on Logan and he whimpered behind the muzzle, holding his hands close to his chest. He was still scared, this beta could be taking him to a group of alphas for all he knows.

Logan keeps running, heading back quickly to his apartment. He hopes that his memory of one his roommate who happens to be an alpha saying he was heading out is correct. As much as he trusts him he thinks the omega isn’t going to be comfortable with an alpha nearby currently.

The omega was crying the entire way, scared of what was to happen and become of him. What if Master's follow him? What if he's heading to New Master's? What if he's going to hurt him himself? There's so many what ifs and he's so terrified right now. He didn't stop crying even when Logan got into the apartment and had closed the door. By then his hands were raised to protect himself while he was crying. His cheeks covered in tears and his eyes red and puffy.

Logan quickly locks the door before placing him on the couch gently. Logan carefully removes the muzzle, speaking softly to him. “Hey, you’re safe. I promise that no one is going to hurt you. I’m trying to help you.

He gave a cry when he was placed on the couch before stopping and looking down, not harmful? Not harmful. Okay. Then he flinched and whimpered, crying out when he moved to touch him. Only to realize he's taking off the muzzle. There were obvious signs that it's been on his mouth for a very long time, his peeling and blistering skin is anything to go by. When he opened his mouth the other could see that his tongue is completely missing. He hiccuped and curled up against the couch, shaking his head. "M-Master... Master... Master... He... You... I... I can't... No... I..." He stuttered over himself, his breathing quick. He was obviously too scared to even make much sense. The thong basically did nothing and he was making a small mess on the couch by his slick.

Logan quickly grabs some of his own spare clothes. “I need you to try to calm down a bit. I have some spare clothes you can borrow.” Logan is worried about this omega. From a past relationship he knew a small bit about how the omega is most likely feeling right now.

"N-No... No... Need... Need Master's...permission... I can't... Get in trouble... Trouble bad.... Trouble... I... I can't get... No.... No clothes..." He frantically shakes his head, looking at the clothes as if it'll burn him, which might not be far from the truth judging by how many scars he has. He tries to take deep breaths in, but it was so hard when his panicked thoughts are going so crazy right now. "I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." He whispered, shaking. "Gonna... Gonna...sell me? Take...to Master's or... Or... I..."

“It’s okay. I’m got going to any of that. I’m to call an ambulance and police, they are trained for situations like this and it’s going to help much better than I can on my own.”

"I... But... What.... They'll..." He takes another shaky breath to try and concentrate on talking. "Master's... Master's...in... Master's are in...work for police... Alphas work...for police... Black uniforms... Black uniforms with handcuffs... I think that's police... Will get me... They will get me." He says shakily, trying to calm down the best he could. Luckily it was getting easier and easier as he looked around the place and as time went by, he thought if he was gonna sell him he would be calling around already.

Logan is very worried by this. “Okay, let me think for a second.” Logan begins to think about what he should do, assessing every reasonable option.

He shakily nods, "A-Are you... Are you...my Master now...?" He asked hesitantly, then shut up so he could think. He was quiet, staring at him then everything around them taking the place in. He didn't understand what most of these things do, in all honesty... Even though he was curious he stayed perfectly still, not wanting to move unless told to. He didn't want to test the patience of this beta.

"Hello?" A voice entered the room, the front door being opened and the sound of keys being jangled could be heard.

Logan immediately chokes on his own tongue when he says that. “N-No. uh, um.” Logan is seriously caught off guard by that question.

"I-I... Huh...? But you...saved me...? You own...me now? I'm... I'm confused?" He stared at him, not understanding why he denied it. Either he is his new master or...he's being sold off... But he said no to being sold off so he's...really confused right now. Just as he was starting to finally calm down the door had opened and he jumped up. And his eyes instantly widened in fear when he smelt the alpha smell.

"Lo? You're back already too? Turns out that theater place was a ditch, such a shame too." Roman walked over to the living room and he froze at the scene before him. He was about ready to take off his bag when he spotted the nearly naked man on their couch. And he was definitely in heat. His nose winkled and he glanced at Logan. "Uh... Lo... Care to explain why a nearly naked omega that in heavy heat is currently in our apartment? Did you order a prostitute or something?"

“On my way to the bookstore I found this omega running from someone who he calls ‘Master’ who is most likely someone who has abused him and might kill him. So, no I have not ordered a prostitute.”

"Ah... Well, that's a shame. Cause my hormones are going bonkers right now. He..." Roman took a moment to process everything he just said. He glanced back at Logan, "Is it like... with you?" He asked, knowing about Logan's past. He was the one who helped him break from his alphas control after all.

The omega was dead quiet, he stared at Roman in pure horror. Is this who he's going to give him too?! He couldn't even ask any questions, all that came out was little peeps and hiccups.

“Yes, it is like that.” Logan can sense that the omega is more than terrified so he turns. “He’s not going to hurt you. I’m not selling you or letting you get hurt. He is a great friend of mine, I know him well and he is isn’t going to take advantage of you, I promise.

"Oh... Gotcha..." Roman takes a deep breath, trying to remember what he did with logan back then. Be a rock and ground him. Comfort him... Okay. Very slowly he kneeled down so he wasn't towering over the quivering omega. And he forced himself to push back his instincts on breeding this Omega. He clearly doesn't need that. And very slowly he scoots a bit forward so he was kneeling before the omega. And he let out calming scents. "I promise i won't ever hurt you, alright? I promise on my life. Can you take a breath for me? Focus on my voice and my scent. Sh... Sh... Breathe..."

The omega didn't know what was happening. But when Logan turned to him he looked over. Only to swallow and let out a few more peeps, but he seemed a bit calmer at that. Not take advantage... He jumped when Roman moved, only to blink when he kneeled down to the ground. He didn't know how to even respond to this. He stared at Roman then at Logan, being completely baffled and confused. "W-What...? But I...need a Master.... Need... I can't... Please? Can I have a Master? Please? I can't... I don't know...what to do with myself... Please..." He begged to them, clearly conditioned to needing a Master for everything.

Logan sighs softly, knowing this mindset more than he would like to. “You don’t need a Master, I promise. What they have done to you is wrong and what they have told you about needing a Master is false.” Logan speaks calmly and softly. Letting out calming scents like Roman but they are definitely not as strong as Roman’s due to some events from his past.

"I... I... N-No... I... I need..." He stuttered, shaking his head with tears in his eyes. He sounded devasted, like somebody told him his dog just died. He put his head in his hands and sobbed loudly once more, crying as if he lost something precious to him. "I... No... Not wrong... Not bad... No... They weren't... N-No... Please... Please..." He sobbed, "I need... A master.... Please!!" He begged, he looked around and noticed the wall behind him. He stood up and started slamming his head against the wall with enough force to make the wall shake. "I'm bad! Bad! Bad!!"

"I'll be your Master!" Roman blurted out, he didn't want to, obviously, but he didn't know how else to calm him down.

Logan quickly puts his arm in between him and the wall. “Calm down. You aren’t bad. If you need a Master, I will be your Master.” Logan says trying to keep his voice steady and calm.

"Are you sure, Logan? He... He's worse off then you were... And..." Roman said nervously, whispering to him. He isn't certain about Logan taking care of him, it might trigger some memories...

He immediately stops when he puts an arm between him. Then freezes when they both shouted that they were gonna be his master's. He looked back and stared between them. Then he took a shaky breath and nods, he stands perfectly still as some blood trickle down his head. "Okay... Master's... I'm... I'm sorry... I'm very sorry..." He sat back down, his head down and he immediately calmed down.

“I... I am not completely sure...” Logan whispers back, admitting he isn’t completely comfortable with taking care of him as he already close to an ‘episode’. Logan quickly gets a first aid kit before starting to treat the wounds on the omega the best he can.

"Okay, let me take care of him. He'll listen to me more anyways since I'm an alpha. He might question later why he's listening to a beta. It's alright." Roman whispers to him, then moves out of his way. Only to help him care for the wound on the omegas head. "Or do you think we should let him choose? I... I don't really know. You gravitated towards me but that might just be cause I kept getting in your way back then..."

He sat perfectly still while they tended to his wound, not even moving a bit.

“I don’t really know either. I think we should let him choose so he can get used to choosing for himself easier?...” Logan whispers as he and Roman care for the wound.

"Yeah, thats a good idea. It'll be a nice first step to getting him used to that. Jesus, can he take one of your heat suppressors first? It is so hard trying to concentrate with that heat smell." He says with a low growl in his voice, but he shakes his head and groans.

Logan nods, quickly getting one as he notes that he’s running low on them before returning and crouching in front of the omega. “Hey, I need you to take this. It doesn’t hurt, I promise.”

Roman scoots a bit back once he rushes off to compose himself. He knows it'll take about twenty minutes for it to really take effect but at least he'll have taken it.

He slowly looks up once he was addressed and he looks down at the pill. He debates on whether he should take it or not. Before swallowing his fear and gets the pill, quickly swallowing it dry. He is scared of taking it of course, since his master's did gave them drugs a lot, but he didn't want to anger any of them either.

“They aren’t harmful, they help a lot in heat. They also help my friend, Roman, keep control of himself and his instincts better.” Logan says trying to reassure him that he is safe.

"Okay, Master... Thank you. I'm sorry I hurt other Master from my heat... Why isn't he breeding me...? Or you?" He asked, finally looking up at both of them. Then he bites his lip, "Sorry for asking questions... Am I allowed to ask questions, Master's?"

Roman shivered at how dull his voice sounded. Yep... Exactly like how Logan sounded... "Hey, little omega." He scoots closer to him, keeping his hands down onto the rug. "We have a question for you. And yes, you may ask as many questions as your heart wants. You wont get in trouble by it. No question is dumb. And no breeding, we don't do breeding here. Unless you want it." He takes a breath, "Would you want me as your master or Logan here? You get to choose who you want to follow, is that alright?"

“It is not your fault.” Logan shivers with Roman, remembering when he was like this. Logan nods, agreeing with Roman and looking in between the omega and Roman slowly.

He was silent, looking between both of them. He...gets to choose? That's...really strange. Sometimes he does have two or three Master's at a time. So this is strange. And he is scared at picking the wrong one and the other being angry at him. As he debates this he bites his lip nervously hugging himself. Very slowly he points at Logan, he trusted him more then Roman right now. Especially since he's a beta. Then he quickly looked at Roman, only to flinch and look away.

"Hey, hey, that's good. Thank you for choosing and answering us. Here," He gets up to go to the kitchen, and he comes back with half a cookie. "A treat for being so good for us so far." He gives him the cookie and luckily he takes it, but he glances at Logan. "You're gonna be up for this?"

Logan nods hesitantly. “Y-Yes.”

Roman obviously hears his stutter and he smiles softly, "Come here." He stands up and backs away so the omega won't think he's towering over him or anything. And he hugs Logan, "You can do this, okay? I know you can. You've come so so far. If it ever gets too much you can tell him to stay in your room and come to mine, okay? Or tell him to listen and follow me. I won't mind it at all." He whispers to his ear.

He glances at the cookie and sniffs it hesitantly, he's never seen this before... Strange... It doesn't smell bad or rotten so that's good... He slowly takes a nibble from the cookie but once he tastes the flavor his eyes widened. He shovels the entire thing in his mouth and happily chews it, loving the taste. "Thank you!" He says around his mouthful.

Logan hugs back, nodding softly.

Roman gives a gentle squeeze, "So... We should probably take this guy to the hospital first. He looks pretty...thin and sickly... He might have to stay overnight just by the looks of him... You get him in the car and I pack a bag?" He asked, thinking that was probably the best course of action.

Logan nods, turning to help the omega. “We’re going to get you to a hospital, okay?”

"Hos...pital....? What's that, Master?" He asked, taking his hand a bit shakily to stand up. He got dizzy when he stood up though and had to grip on the couch to keep steady and not fall. Taking a few shaky breaths he tried to stop the room from spinning.

Roman rushed into his room to grab his back and start packing.

Logan helps him stand shifting him so he is supporting the omega. “It’s a place where doctors work and they help heal sick and injuried people. They are good.”

He whimpered when he moved him, thinking he was going to toss him to the ground and force him to move. But instead he blinked and was shocked to see him actually supporting him. Uh... "O-Oh... No... No previous... Master's...? No...cops?" He asked shakily, his head hurting the more he moved. But he forced himself to keep going for Logan.

Logan nods, quickly picking him up carefully and softly. “None of that, I promise.” Logan speaks softly.

"O-Okay... Thank you, Master." He squeaked and tried to hold in a small scream when he picked him up. But he took a shaky breath to calm down. "I... You're...a better Master already... I... I like you more..." He whispered under his breath as he held on to him, blinking at the sunlight once they got outside and hissing softly. "M-Master... Other Master isn't mad that I choose you, right? You're not mad either?"

“Neither of us are mad, I promise.” Logan says as he places the omega in the car.

"O-Okay... Okay... Thank you, Master. I'm sorry for punishing myself. I'm very sorry." He says, sitting down in the car very stock still. He wanted to be good for his new master after all.

Roman came jogging over with a bag, "Alright, I got snacks and a change of clothes for all of us. Here's I assume the clothes you tried to give him? It was laying on the couch so..." He gave Logan the clothes, "Then toothbrush, toothpaste, uh... I don't think we need anything else... I'll come back tomorrow if he does need to stay."

Logan nods, taking the clothes. “Okay, good. thank you, Roman”

"Of course, man, of course." Roman gives him a quick hug before going over to place the bag in the truck. "I'll drive!" He says as he hops into the drivers seat and started up the car to turn on the heat as it was a bit chilly outside.

The omega watched them curiously, not having an idea what is going on. As the car started he jumped in surprise before resting back down, shifting side to side a bit nervously.

Logan sits next to the omega just in case he needs help. “You’re safe. Nothing is going to hurt you now.” Logan reassures the omega softly.

He glanced over at him once he sat next to him, blinking as to why he did that. And he stared at him at his reassuring words, just staring for several moments. Before giving a nod, "O-Okay... I uh... Okay..." He mumbles, and he didn't sound like he was convinced at all. But he agrees anyways.

"We'll both protect you, alright? Trust me. Your part of our pack now, so you don't have to worry about a thing. Just focus on getting better and we'll do the rest." Roman said as he started pulling out then driving along.

Logan nods. “Yes, Roman is correct.”

He is silent, then glances away. "A...pack?" His voice trembles and he swallows thickly. "I... No... No dark room? I... I don't....want to go back... to dark room... I'm... I'm sorry... I'll be good, I promise." He sounded on the verge of tears and he hiccuped, drawing his hands shakily around himself in a hug.

“No dark room, we promise. You don’t have to apologize.” Logan reassures softly, extremely concerned about the omega.

"Yes, Logan is right. No dark room. We'll make sure you don't ever go back there. We'll keep your room lit at all times. It's okay, it's okay, you've been so good for both of us. We're really happy at how good you've been." Roman replied back, keeping his voice soft. But he glances at Logan from the rear view mirror with concern. And he could tell that Logan feels exactly the same.

"R-Really? Oh... Okay... Thank you... Master's. Thank you." He sounded very relieved, incredibly relieved actually. "You're...good Master's... Thank you." He really did sound greatful, these Master's were already a lot better then his previous ones. He takes a shaky breath and pulls up his knees to his chest, trying to be small as possible.

Logan is extremely concerned for the omega.

Roman is silent for a bit, sharing Logan's exact worried thoughts. This one...might be worse then Logan's case... And he isn't sure if they can even help him. But he wants to try, he really wants to try. "So... Do you have a name? We can't keep calling you 'omega' or any of that forever."

He snapped out of his thoughts to look ahead at Roman. And he shook his head. "No, Master. I don't. I'm whatever a master wants to call me. Some name me slut... Others name me whore. Would you want to name me one of those?"

Logan’s concern quickly turns to worry. “No...”

"What?!" Roman sounded appalled, and concerned. Mixed with anger and disgust as well. "No! No... No, we are not calling you any of those names. Hell no. What about... Hm... What do you think, lo? You are his master after all."

He flinched when they all said no to that. Guess that's...a bad thing? He swallowed thickly and glanced to logan, waiting for his answer but remaining quiet this time.

“Hm.. Dee maybe?” Logan is extremely worried and nervous currently and that is one of the only names he can think of.

"Dee's a good name! What do you think about that name? We could change it if you don't like it." Roman says, honestly he's as worried if not more then Logan right now. But he's trying to lift up the mood the best he could. Which probably isn't very good but hey, he's trying.

"it's... It's okay... Thank you, Master. My name is dee now, thank you." He says, bowing his head. Really any name Logan chose he would've said it was good to. But this name he rather quite...liked. It had a nice ring to it, he thought.

Logan smiles softly, mentally thanking Roman for trying to lift the room.

Roman could tell that he was thanking him quietly, and he smiled at that. He drove into the parking spot at the hospital and sighed as he stopped the car and unbuckled. "Alright, you carry Dee in lo and uh... I guess I can sign the papers? If you want? And you go with Dee to the back while they uh...do whatever they need to do?" He asked, figuring out the plan.

Dee was quiet and he looked out the window, marveling at just how big the building was. It was way bigger then the warehouse, or well, what he thinks the warehouse looked like from the outside.

Logan nods, getting out of the car and going to Dee’s side.

Dee looks up when he gets out of the car, and he slowly attempts to open his door. Once he did he stood up, but he must've stood up way too quickly cause everything spun around suddenly. He grew pale before collasping. Luckily he fell right on Logan and he had his eyes shut, his breathing was uneven and he took shaky breaths in.

Roman practically jumped out of the car when he saw Dee collasping. "Logan, go in now! I'll sign the papers!" He quickly got in the car to grab his keys, rushing around.

Logan nods, scooping Dee up and rushing into the hospital.

Dee whimpered at the sudden movement, gripping onto him hard like he was afraid of falling. But he also hid his head in his chest, the rush of light hurting his eyelids. He could hear voices but it sounded like it was coming from underwater.

Luckily, nurses saw them and rushed over. A few nurses were right behind and guestered Logan over to one of their back rooms. They were speaking to each other while they told Logan to set him on the bed in the room. "We'll take it from here. Can you wait in the waiting room for us, please?"

Logan goes in the room and places him on the bed. “I-I uh okay.” Logan stammers before hesitatingly leaving the room and going back to the waiting room, extremely worried and nervous.

Dee doesn't know what's going on, as he felt hands and what he thinks is needles on his arm. "Ma... Master...?" He shakily whispers under his breath and manages to open his eyes. Only to see that Logan has left and he sighed, his head resting on the pillow once more.

Roman is filling out the paperwork when he looks up. "What they say?" He asked, holding up his wrist for Logan to scent if he needed it. He knows that calms him down most of the time, but he isn't sure about right now.

“That they were going to take over now.” Logan says as he softly holds Roman wrist, smelling his scent which calms a part of Logan but he is still nervous and worried.

"It's gonna be alright, Lo. They'll fix him. I promise you that they'll fix him. Everything will be alright, okay? Sh..." Roman released calming and reassuring scents for him and rubbed his back. He even started nuzzling his cheek with his own. "They'll fix him, and we will go home and really get to know him. Dee is a great name for him by the way. It's a fantastic name." He cooed, trying to calm him down the best he could.

Logan smiles softly as the calming and reassuring scents work, he nuzzles his cheek back gently.

Roman smiles back, glad that the scents were working in calming him down. He nuzzles his cheek back gently and sent more scents his way. And he sighed softly, honestly very worried and concerned himself. But he tries to hide it for Logan's sake.

About a half hour later a nurse comes out and walks over to Logan. "You're the one with the scarred omega right?"

Logan nods, becoming extremely worried. “Yes, is he okay?”

Roman is silent, waiting and squeezing Logan's hand.

"He is stable for now. We think he'll be okay in the long run, yes. He's going to need lots of treatment though. His blood cell count was...we haven't ever seen it as low as his was. We had to do a blood transfusion, mulitiple IVs, an oxygen tank since he was having troubles breathing on his own. He is... He's pretty sick."

Logan nods, still extremely worried but is relieved to here that they think he will be okay in the long run at least and Roman’s presence alone is helping him stay calm. “Ah...” Logan manages to say. Due to the abuse he went through from that alpha, Logan is quite awkward when it comes to social things and is extremely quiet often only answering with one or two words. It took a while for him to properly talk and open up to Roman, Roman being one of few people Logan can properly talk without only using one or two words.

Roman is extremely relieved, worried but relieved. As long as they think he'll be fine in the long run that's good enough for him. That means that he has a good enough chance to survive. He squeezes Logan's hand reassuringly when he hears the single word, knowing exactly what he wants to say. He knows that Logan can't say more then one word in front of strangers, so he often steps in and talks for him. And he knows what he wants to say just from his expression and his tone of that single word. "We are very grateful. Thank you so so much. We are both just... Thank you. Is there any chance we can see him?"

"Yes, you may. Right this way." She points down the hallway and smiles, "No need to thank me. I'm just doing my job." She smiles and opens up a door.

Logan smiles softly at Roman, silently thanking him. When she opens the door, Logan goes in the room quickly with extreme worry all over his face.

Roman smiles back, squeezing his hand yet again to silently say that he doesn't have to thank him. Then he followed them, he stays a bit behind Logan making sure he gets to Dee first.

There are quite a lot of wires going into both of his arms, including the poles beside him. And loud beeping was coming from the heart monitor. Dee looked paler then before, his sticky hair plastered to his forehead. And a mask was over his mouth and nose. He definitely didn't look good right now at all, he looked close to death with how pale he is. He appeared to be asleep, his eyes closed and was resting luckily.

Logan lets out a breath he didn’t know he was holding when he sees Dee but worry still runs his mind currently.

Roman swallows at the sight of Dee. That...didn't look very good... He looked back at the nurse to see that she's already gone, huh, well... Then he glanced at Logan to see his transfixed stare at Dee. "Hey, hey, he's going to be okay. Sh... I know it's a lot. But he's going to be fine." He hugs Logan tightly and rubs his back. Just then he heard a groan come from the omega and he looks over, watching Dee slowly open his eyes and look around.

Logan hugs back, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath in. Logan then looks immediately at Dee when he heard the groan. “H-How are you feeling, Dee?”

Roman looks over as well, holding in his breath. He draws up a chair besides his bed for Logan and himself. Knowing Logan probably won't want to leave his side for a while, knowing him at least.

Dee stared at them, as if he has to really concentrate as to who they are. He was silent for several moments before he swallowed and finally spoke. "T-Tired... Not.... Not good..." He groaned out, Winching a bit. "Hurts..? Hurts... Master...didn't leave me?" He sounded a bit heartbroken, like he actually thought that Logan was going to leave him here and won't come back.

Logan sits down, once again silently thanking Roman. When Dee speaks Logan feels guilty for leaving the room and making Dee think he was going to abandon him. “N-No, I would never. I will n-never. I promise.”

Ran shakes his head without saying anything, as if silently saying don't mention it. He focuses on Dee and shakes his head, "No... No, we won't leave you. We won't ever leave you. Okay?"

Dee blinked between them and he could see some emotion in Logan's eyes. He couldn't place what it was though... He cleared his throat a bit then sucked in a breath. "Really...? Oh... Okay... I'm sorry, Master... Sorry... I thought that... Won't think that again..." He silently stared at the wall for a moment before blinking and coming to. "What's... this?" He points weakly at the mask, it wasn't hurting and he could obviously still talk, but he didn't know what it was for.

“I-It’s a mask that helps you b-breathe.” Logan explains, gripping Roman’s hand gently to remind himself that Roman is here which calms him.

Roman grips his hand back, gently rubbing his thumb along logans hand. He scoots his chair closer and hugs Logan from the side, still holding his hand. He released calming scents again, wanting Logan to know that he's here and not going to leave him.

"Oh... Oh... Okay... Feels funny... Mhm..." He whispers, his voice slurring together. "Mhm... No... No bad men? Bad...alphas... You better Master... Like you... Don't make me eat pups like old Master's... Pups don't taste very good..." He was obviously high off of some drug. But it was making him calm, maybe a bit too calm.

Logan smiles softly at the scents, it working though when Dee says this some bad memories attack his mind but he manages to stay composed and not curl up in a ball. His alpha never made him eat his pups luckily though he did often kill them in front of Logan or forced Logan to kill them. “N-No bad men a-are here... I-I won’t, I-I promise with all my heart.”

Roman is dead silent at what Dee says. He doesn't even know what to say back to that. But he does feel Logan tighten up so he moves his free hand up to massage his scalp. "There is none of that here, we promise. None of that will happen ever again. Now...try to relax okay? Get some sleep. We'll be here when you wake up, little one. Sh..." Roman goes over to pull the blanket over him some more and sighs softly, going right back to Logan side.

Dee glances between both of them. "Okay... Okay... Uh... Is... Is Master okay?" Even in his daze state he noticed his stuttering and little bit of shakingness. Then he blinks at Roman and nods, "Okay... I'll get some sleep...for you Master... Want to be good...for you... Good slave... Mhm... Good slut..." He yawns, then smiles his eyes dropping closed.

Logan has started to space out remembering every pup, what he wanted to name them, and how they died, trembling and leaning into Roman’s warmth. Logan flinches for second when Roman touches his scrap but when he smells Roman’s scent a half second later he stops and leans into Roman’s hand.

Roman could feel him trembling and could feel his flinch, he removes his hand only to see him leaning into it. So he continued massaging his scalp, and he hugs him close and protectively. "Master is alright, he's okay. It's just been a long day for him. You aren't a slave or a slut. You are Dee. And your the best omega anybody could ask for. Now sh... Sh... Go to sleep." He watches Dee slowly fall asleep. Then he digs in his pockets for his earpods that he always carries with him just in case. He places them in Logan's ears then brings out his phone as well. He scrolls through his music to find the playlist he had downloaded just for when Logan gets his flashbacks. He starts playing it then he gently rocked him side to side, humming softly and releasing his calming scents some more. "You're not there, Logan. You're not there. Sh... Focus on the music. Focus on me." He whispered calmly to him.

Logan’s trembling soon stops after Roman starts playing music and releasing his calming scents. Logan relaxes, slowly hugging Roman gently and tired as flashbacks can be tiring and he didn’t get much sleep last night.

Roman smiles when he could feel his trembling slowly coming to a stop. That's great. That's...really really great. And he smiles even more at feeling him relaxing under his hands. Thank God he downloaded that playlist, it has been a lifesaver more then once. He knew he'd be tired right after this so he looks around the room. And luckily there were a small couch at the far end of the wall. Gently he scoops up Logan in his arms and brings him over to the couch, laying Logan on his chest and grabbing a blanket and pillow from where he was. He laid the blanket on them and puts the pillow behind his head. He places a gentle kiss on Logan's forehead then rubs his back. "Go to sleep, Lo. I'll be here. I won't leave you." He whispers to him, yawning himself. It's been a tiring few hours.

“G-Goodnight, Ro.” Logan yawns softly before falling asleep and gently snuggling Roman in his sleep.

"Goodnight, Lo." He whispers back, and he stays awake for a bit longer. Just to make sure that Logan is asleep and Dee is too. The heart monitor is weirdly calming but at the same time stressful. But he sighs and lays down some more, having his arms gently protective around Logan. And he falls asleep snuggling Logan back and he sleeps peacefully.

Logan sleeps peacefully for several hours until a nightmare attacked his first peaceful sleep in around a month causing him to shift slightly and whimper.

Roman was still sound asleep, but when he heard that whimper subconsciously he held him tighter and released more calming scents. "Mhm... No... Bad...sound... Mhm... Not that... Not..." He mumbled in his sleep then turned his head, he rolled over and held Logan almost like a stuffed animal close to his chest.

Logan relaxes, the nightmare stopping. Logan snuggles closer to Roman chest in his sleep.

Roman snuggled him, wrapping his arms and legs around him in his sleep. He immediately went back to sleep once Logan snuggled up to him, even subconsciously knowing that he's fine now.

Just as they were about to go back to sleep Dee's heart monitor started beeping more intensely. And the sounds of the bed rocking back and forth can be heard. Followed by what sounded like crying and mumbling incoherent words.

Logan immediately wakes up, jumping in surprise and falls off the couch before looking at Dee, panicking.

Dee is kicking out at something, his head shaking back and forth and sobbing. Though he was clearly asleep, just having a nightmare by the looks of things. He was doing that for a moment before he suddenly screams at the top of his lungs and jump up, his eyes open with a panic and his breathing is heavy. He brings up his knees to his chest and sobs quietly into his knees.

Roman was starting to wake up when he heard the loud thuds, but at the loud scream he was instantly awake. He snapped awake and nearly fell ontop of logan. But he manages to catch himself and look around to where the screaming came from. Only to see it was Dee who was crying and shaking. He frowns and leans over to Logan to take out the earpods, then he slowly walked over to Dee. "Hey... Hey, it's okay... It's alright. Sh..." He cooed. But Dee only jumped away from him, and looked at him with pure terror.

Logan gets up from the floor slowly and carefully approaches Dee slowly. “Hey.. Dee... it’s okay... you’re safe...”

Roman slowly backs away then, he knows if he keeps going towards him that would only make him panic more.

Dee whips over when he hears Logan and sucks in a breath. His eyes are unfocused for a bit and he just stares at Logan. Until he shakes his head to clear it out. Slowly he registers what he's saying and he hiccups. "M-Master...?" He managed to say, his body shaking. "I... I... N-No... Not... Mhm..." He whispers, shaking his head and curling back into a ball.

“Did you have a nightmare, Dee?” Logan says softly, slowly moving closer to Dee.

"Y-Yes... M-Master..." He hiccuped, hiding his face in his knees the best he could. Though the tugging on the wires were making it hard to do. But he ignored it and kept tugging, sobbing quietly. He seemed to be forcing himself to calm down, probably from his nails digging into his legs so hard that it's causing it to bleed. But it's making himself snap back to reality, which is what he wanted. "Sorry... Sorry... Stupid... M' stupid... I'll... Go back to sleep now... Very.. very... Very sorry...to wake you up.. very... I..." He sucks in a harsh breath then forced himself to lay back down.

“Hey, it’s okay... I’m sorry you had a nightmare... You aren’t stupid.. it’s not your fault, Dee...” Logan speaks softly.

Dee hesitantly glanced at him, still tears pouring down his cheeks but he shakes his head. He immediately wipes it all away and digs his nails into his face to keep from crying some more. "I... Not... Not okay... Not... I.... Why...aren't you... whipping me... Master? I don't.. I... I... Stupid... Stupid...slut... Not..." He takes a shaky breath, "Every night...have nightmares... It's fine... It's... It's okay..."

“You aren’t a s-slut. You are Dee and you are amazing. I’m sorry you have nightmares every night.... I do too.” Logan is extremely worried about Dee.

Dee immediately shook his head, his name now is Dee of course. But he isn't amazing. He is anything but. He's a slut, that's what he is... Though at his whisper he glanced up at him, few bits of blood coming from his cheeks. "Master...has nightmares... N-Not... Not possible... Not... Lying... Lying... Trick... Master's trick... Lie... Master's lie..." He shook his head again and brought up the blanket over his head. "Lie..." He whispered, hiding himself in a tight ball.

Roman glanced over at Logan and bit his lip nervously. Logan wasn't like this at all back when he saved him. Sure, he did hide away when he had nightmares but... He didn't hurt himself or act like this. He wasn't sure what to do.

Logan doesn’t know what to do too. “I can promise you that I am not lying...” Worry and Concern overwhelming Logan as he speaks softly.

Dee could hear the worry in his voice, and it's very clear now. He at first didn't even know what that emotion was. Until he had to realize it sounded a lot like the others when they're being taken away by the alphas. Worry... And fear of course. He swallows and slowly peeks out to look at him. "Master's...don't...get nightmares... They... They give it..." He hiccuped, "You... I... I'm... I'm confused..." He admitted slowly as it was clear that his hands were trembling against his cheeks.

“Not all Masters are like that... I-I used to have a M-Master like that.... B-But now I-I’m free.” Logan says as he slowly ends up next to Dee and carefully and slowly tries to lower Dee’s hands from his face.

"You.... You... You...did?" He had to repeat himself as he tried to focus on his words rather then his shaking and ever growing panic in his mind. "How... You... I... Huh?" He asked, completely confused as to how he had a Master before too. But he's a Master... How does that...make sense... When he moves towards his hands he whimpered and shut his eyes, flinching violently from his hands. Only to open his eyes and look at him, his hands moving with his movements.

Logan slowly and gently moves his hands down away from his face. “I’m sorry for scaring you, I don’t want you to hurt yourself... Yes, I did. I’m sorry you had to go through all that.”

Dee doesn't open his eyes at all while he has hold of his hands. He keeps whimpering and holding his breath, expecting to get hit from him. Ever so slowly he opens his eyes once he moves his hands down then blinks. "You... Bad...hurt... Bad..." He finally sucks in a gasp of air and hugs himself. He doesn't know how to handle of this. That he's apologizing to him. That he really had a Master before too. None of this makes much sense to him. "I... I... I don't... I..." He shuts his eyes again and shakes his head, he was still shaking but it wasn't nearly as bad as before. And his breathing has gone down now that he's thinking of what Logan's saying. "Sorry...? Sorry... Sorry... Wake up bad... Sorry." He mumbled.

“It’s okay. I’m sorry for startling you. I was going to wake up from a nightmare soon most likely so you kinda saved me from another nightmare. Thank you.” Logan says softly.

"You...were? I uh... Um... I... Huh?" He definitely seemed confused at the thanks, he's never been...thanked before. He stares at him as if he's crazy, blinking and not saying anything else. He glances over at Roman to make sure he wasn't crazy and no... He's nodding along to what he's saying. Then he glanced back at Logan, he didn't know how to respond to that at all. Though, he guessed it's good that he...sorta saved him from another nightmare...he suppose?

Logan smiles softly at Dee.

"I... I... M' sorry? I uh... I'm... Why are...you saying sorry...to me? I'm... I'm confused... I'm... Why... I don't... Understand?" He stuttered, sounding very confused and lost. "Why... How... You had a Master... You..." He swallowed thickly, raising up his hands again but to just wipe away the tears some more so he could see. "Go...back to bed... Master... Sorry..." He knows he won't be able to get any more sleep for the rest of the night now though. Once he has a nightmare he normally can't fall asleep again, no matter how hard he tries.

Logan is extremely worried. “I want to make sure you are as okay as you can be currently....”

Dee stares at him, confused beyond belief. "Why...?" Why does he care if he's okay? Or as okay as he could be? Why... That doesn't make any sense to him. Why would a Master bother to make sure he's okay? This doesn't make any sense to him...

Logan has concern and worry all over his face and body language.

"B-Because we care about you." Roman finally speaks up, he wanted Logan to take this over since he seems to trust him more. But he knew he won't know what to say back to that. "Because... We... Logan here...as your Master...wants you to be healthy, mentally and physically... He isn't like your other Master's... He much rather prefer you to be healthy for him..." He mumbled, hoping he was saying the right thing.

Dee glances over at Roman and blinks, then stared at Logan. "Want me...to be healthy...?" He slowly comprehends that finding it really strange. "Oh... Oh... That's... Uh... Okay?"

Logan nods, that being exactly what he wanted to say but just couldn’t figure out how to say, silently thanking Roman.

A lone omega runs down an alleyway, he didn't have a single idea where he was going or where he even was. His only thought was to run. He only wore a thong and a collar with a leash that was dragging behind him, clearly a sign that he was a slave to some alpha. His hands were tied and he had a muzzle strapped to his mouth. And was covered in scars from head to toe, half of his body being burned by flames. And he was in heat, heavily in heat.

Logan, a beta, had been walking to a bookstore when he smelt the lone omega in heat and could tell something was wrong. Logan quickly figured out where the scent was coming from and ran into the alleyway to help.

The smell of fear was coming off in waves from this one omega, plus the smell of heat. It was strong enough to attract anybody nearby really. But he didn't know that. He was too terrified to even think properly. The only thoughts going through his mind was to run away. Run before his masters catch him. When he saw somebody running towards him he froze, trying to step back only to fall on the pavement. He whimpered and whined, sobbing loudly and pleading. His arms and hands over his face to protect himself and his entire body trembling and violently shaking. He wasn't even sure if he was breathing or not, judging by how badly his chest was caving in it definitely didn't feel like he was. He could smell the distant scent that came from him but he couldn't concentrate long enough to figure out that he was a beta.

Logan rushed to his side. “Hey, calm down. I’m not going to hurt you. Can you tell me what is going on?”

He gave a yelp of surprise when he rushed over to him, he sobbed shutting his eyes in fear. Then he shook his head, tears streaming down his eyes and he looked so scared and terrified. Just then he heard what sounded like footsteps coming down the other side of the alleyway and he gave a muffled scream, he could recongize that scent anywhere. He was frozen in fear though, his eyes even wider. He's going to die... He's going to die... They're gonna kill him. It's all over.

Logan gets the sense that whoever was making those footsteps isn’t good. “I’m going to pick you up, sorry if it hurts.” Logan says before picking the omega up, using adrenaline he starts to run out of the alleyway.

He makes a tiny noise before he's suddenly picked up. He didn't even hear what Logan had just said so when he's suddenly picked up he nearly jumped so badly he just about fell from his arms. Luckily he didn't and he was in shock to find him running away. What...is he doing?! He looked behind to see that luckily they got out of there just in time before the alphas had gotten to where they just were. His gaze landed on Logan and he whimpered behind the muzzle, holding his hands close to his chest. He was still scared, this beta could be taking him to a group of alphas for all he knows.

Logan keeps running, heading back quickly to his apartment. He hopes that his memory of one his roommate who happens to be an alpha saying he was heading out is correct. As much as he trusts him he thinks the omega isn’t going to be comfortable with an alpha nearby currently.

The omega was crying the entire way, scared of what was to happen and become of him. What if Master's follow him? What if he's heading to New Master's? What if he's going to hurt him himself? There's so many what ifs and he's so terrified right now. He didn't stop crying even when Logan got into the apartment and had closed the door. By then his hands were raised to protect himself while he was crying. His cheeks covered in tears and his eyes red and puffy.

Logan quickly locks the door before placing him on the couch gently. Logan carefully removes the muzzle, speaking softly to him. “Hey, you’re safe. I promise that no one is going to hurt you. I’m trying to help you.

He gave a cry when he was placed on the couch before stopping and looking down, not harmful? Not harmful. Okay. Then he flinched and whimpered, crying out when he moved to touch him. Only to realize he's taking off the muzzle. There were obvious signs that it's been on his mouth for a very long time, his peeling and blistering skin is anything to go by. When he opened his mouth the other could see that his tongue is completely missing. He hiccuped and curled up against the couch, shaking his head. "M-Master... Master... Master... He... You... I... I can't... No... I..." He stuttered over himself, his breathing quick. He was obviously too scared to even make much sense. The thong basically did nothing and he was making a small mess on the couch by his slick.

Logan quickly grabs some of his own spare clothes. “I need you to try to calm down a bit. I have some spare clothes you can borrow.” Logan is worried about this omega. From a past relationship he knew a small bit about how the omega is most likely feeling right now.

"N-No... No... Need... Need Master's...permission... I can't... Get in trouble... Trouble bad.... Trouble... I... I can't get... No.... No clothes..." He frantically shakes his head, looking at the clothes as if it'll burn him, which might not be far from the truth judging by how many scars he has. He tries to take deep breaths in, but it was so hard when his panicked thoughts are going so crazy right now. "I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." He whispered, shaking. "Gonna... Gonna...sell me? Take...to Master's or... Or... I..."

“It’s okay. I’m got going to any of that. I’m to call an ambulance and police, they are trained for situations like this and it’s going to help much better than I can on my own.”

"I... But... What.... They'll..." He takes another shaky breath to try and concentrate on talking. "Master's... Master's...in... Master's are in...work for police... Alphas work...for police... Black uniforms... Black uniforms with handcuffs... I think that's police... Will get me... They will get me." He says shakily, trying to calm down the best he could. Luckily it was getting easier and easier as he looked around the place and as time went by, he thought if he was gonna sell him he would be calling around already.

Logan is very worried by this. “Okay, let me think for a second.” Logan begins to think about what he should do, assessing every reasonable option.

He shakily nods, "A-Are you... Are you...my Master now...?" He asked hesitantly, then shut up so he could think. He was quiet, staring at him then everything around them taking the place in. He didn't understand what most of these things do, in all honesty... Even though he was curious he stayed perfectly still, not wanting to move unless told to. He didn't want to test the patience of this beta.

"Hello?" A voice entered the room, the front door being opened and the sound of keys being jangled could be heard.

Logan immediately chokes on his own tongue when he says that. “N-No. uh, um.” Logan is seriously caught off guard by that question.

"I-I... Huh...? But you...saved me...? You own...me now? I'm... I'm confused?" He stared at him, not understanding why he denied it. Either he is his new master or...he's being sold off... But he said no to being sold off so he's...really confused right now. Just as he was starting to finally calm down the door had opened and he jumped up. And his eyes instantly widened in fear when he smelt the alpha smell.

"Lo? You're back already too? Turns out that theater place was a ditch, such a shame too." Roman walked over to the living room and he froze at the scene before him. He was about ready to take off his bag when he spotted the nearly naked man on their couch. And he was definitely in heat. His nose winkled and he glanced at Logan. "Uh... Lo... Care to explain why a nearly naked omega that in heavy heat is currently in our apartment? Did you order a prostitute or something?"

“On my way to the bookstore I found this omega running from someone who he calls ‘Master’ who is most likely someone who has abused him and might kill him. So, no I have not ordered a prostitute.”

"Ah... Well, that's a shame. Cause my hormones are going bonkers right now. He..." Roman took a moment to process everything he just said. He glanced back at Logan, "Is it like... with you?" He asked, knowing about Logan's past. He was the one who helped him break from his alphas control after all.

The omega was dead quiet, he stared at Roman in pure horror. Is this who he's going to give him too?! He couldn't even ask any questions, all that came out was little peeps and hiccups.

“Yes, it is like that.” Logan can sense that the omega is more than terrified so he turns. “He’s not going to hurt you. I’m not selling you or letting you get hurt. He is a great friend of mine, I know him well and he is isn’t going to take advantage of you, I promise.

"Oh... Gotcha..." Roman takes a deep breath, trying to remember what he did with logan back then. Be a rock and ground him. Comfort him... Okay. Very slowly he kneeled down so he wasn't towering over the quivering omega. And he forced himself to push back his instincts on breeding this Omega. He clearly doesn't need that. And very slowly he scoots a bit forward so he was kneeling before the omega. And he let out calming scents. "I promise i won't ever hurt you, alright? I promise on my life. Can you take a breath for me? Focus on my voice and my scent. Sh... Sh... Breathe..."

The omega didn't know what was happening. But when Logan turned to him he looked over. Only to swallow and let out a few more peeps, but he seemed a bit calmer at that. Not take advantage... He jumped when Roman moved, only to blink when he kneeled down to the ground. He didn't know how to even respond to this. He stared at Roman then at Logan, being completely baffled and confused. "W-What...? But I...need a Master.... Need... I can't... Please? Can I have a Master? Please? I can't... I don't know...what to do with myself... Please..." He begged to them, clearly conditioned to needing a Master for everything.

Logan sighs softly, knowing this mindset more than he would like to. “You don’t need a Master, I promise. What they have done to you is wrong and what they have told you about needing a Master is false.” Logan speaks calmly and softly. Letting out calming scents like Roman but they are definitely not as strong as Roman’s due to some events from his past.

"I... I... N-No... I... I need..." He stuttered, shaking his head with tears in his eyes. He sounded devasted, like somebody told him his dog just died. He put his head in his hands and sobbed loudly once more, crying as if he lost something precious to him. "I... No... Not wrong... Not bad... No... They weren't... N-No... Please... Please..." He sobbed, "I need... A master.... Please!!" He begged, he looked around and noticed the wall behind him. He stood up and started slamming his head against the wall with enough force to make the wall shake. "I'm bad! Bad! Bad!!"

"I'll be your Master!" Roman blurted out, he didn't want to, obviously, but he didn't know how else to calm him down.

Logan quickly puts his arm in between him and the wall. “Calm down. You aren’t bad. If you need a Master, I will be your Master.” Logan says trying to keep his voice steady and calm.

"Are you sure, Logan? He... He's worse off then you were... And..." Roman said nervously, whispering to him. He isn't certain about Logan taking care of him, it might trigger some memories...

He immediately stops when he puts an arm between him. Then freezes when they both shouted that they were gonna be his master's. He looked back and stared between them. Then he took a shaky breath and nods, he stands perfectly still as some blood trickle down his head. "Okay... Master's... I'm... I'm sorry... I'm very sorry..." He sat back down, his head down and he immediately calmed down.

“I... I am not completely sure...” Logan whispers back, admitting he isn’t completely comfortable with taking care of him as he already close to an ‘episode’. Logan quickly gets a first aid kit before starting to treat the wounds on the omega the best he can.

"Okay, let me take care of him. He'll listen to me more anyways since I'm an alpha. He might question later why he's listening to a beta. It's alright." Roman whispers to him, then moves out of his way. Only to help him care for the wound on the omegas head. "Or do you think we should let him choose? I... I don't really know. You gravitated towards me but that might just be cause I kept getting in your way back then..."

He sat perfectly still while they tended to his wound, not even moving a bit.

“I don’t really know either. I think we should let him choose so he can get used to choosing for himself easier?...” Logan whispers as he and Roman care for the wound.

"Yeah, thats a good idea. It'll be a nice first step to getting him used to that. Jesus, can he take one of your heat suppressors first? It is so hard trying to concentrate with that heat smell." He says with a low growl in his voice, but he shakes his head and groans.

Logan nods, quickly getting one as he notes that he’s running low on them before returning and crouching in front of the omega. “Hey, I need you to take this. It doesn’t hurt, I promise.”

Roman scoots a bit back once he rushes off to compose himself. He knows it'll take about twenty minutes for it to really take effect but at least he'll have taken it.

He slowly looks up once he was addressed and he looks down at the pill. He debates on whether he should take it or not. Before swallowing his fear and gets the pill, quickly swallowing it dry. He is scared of taking it of course, since his master's did gave them drugs a lot, but he didn't want to anger any of them either.

“They aren’t harmful, they help a lot in heat. They also help my friend, Roman, keep control of himself and his instincts better.” Logan says trying to reassure him that he is safe.

"Okay, Master... Thank you. I'm sorry I hurt other Master from my heat... Why isn't he breeding me...? Or you?" He asked, finally looking up at both of them. Then he bites his lip, "Sorry for asking questions... Am I allowed to ask questions, Master's?"

Roman shivered at how dull his voice sounded. Yep... Exactly like how Logan sounded... "Hey, little omega." He scoots closer to him, keeping his hands down onto the rug. "We have a question for you. And yes, you may ask as many questions as your heart wants. You wont get in trouble by it. No question is dumb. And no breeding, we don't do breeding here. Unless you want it." He takes a breath, "Would you want me as your master or Logan here? You get to choose who you want to follow, is that alright?"

“It is not your fault.” Logan shivers with Roman, remembering when he was like this. Logan nods, agreeing with Roman and looking in between the omega and Roman slowly.

He was silent, looking between both of them. He...gets to choose? That's...really strange. Sometimes he does have two or three Master's at a time. So this is strange. And he is scared at picking the wrong one and the other being angry at him. As he debates this he bites his lip nervously hugging himself. Very slowly he points at Logan, he trusted him more then Roman right now. Especially since he's a beta. Then he quickly looked at Roman, only to flinch and look away.

"Hey, hey, that's good. Thank you for choosing and answering us. Here," He gets up to go to the kitchen, and he comes back with half a cookie. "A treat for being so good for us so far." He gives him the cookie and luckily he takes it, but he glances at Logan. "You're gonna be up for this?"

Logan nods hesitantly. “Y-Yes.”

Roman obviously hears his stutter and he smiles softly, "Come here." He stands up and backs away so the omega won't think he's towering over him or anything. And he hugs Logan, "You can do this, okay? I know you can. You've come so so far. If it ever gets too much you can tell him to stay in your room and come to mine, okay? Or tell him to listen and follow me. I won't mind it at all." He whispers to his ear.

He glances at the cookie and sniffs it hesitantly, he's never seen this before... Strange... It doesn't smell bad or rotten so that's good... He slowly takes a nibble from the cookie but once he tastes the flavor his eyes widened. He shovels the entire thing in his mouth and happily chews it, loving the taste. "Thank you!" He says around his mouthful.

Logan hugs back, nodding softly.

Roman gives a gentle squeeze, "So... We should probably take this guy to the hospital first. He looks pretty...thin and sickly... He might have to stay overnight just by the looks of him... You get him in the car and I pack a bag?" He asked, thinking that was probably the best course of action.

Logan nods, turning to help the omega. “We’re going to get you to a hospital, okay?”

"Hos...pital....? What's that, Master?" He asked, taking his hand a bit shakily to stand up. He got dizzy when he stood up though and had to grip on the couch to keep steady and not fall. Taking a few shaky breaths he tried to stop the room from spinning.

Roman rushed into his room to grab his back and start packing.

Logan helps him stand shifting him so he is supporting the omega. “It’s a place where doctors work and they help heal sick and injuried people. They are good.”

He whimpered when he moved him, thinking he was going to toss him to the ground and force him to move. But instead he blinked and was shocked to see him actually supporting him. Uh... "O-Oh... No... No previous... Master's...? No...cops?" He asked shakily, his head hurting the more he moved. But he forced himself to keep going for Logan.

Logan nods, quickly picking him up carefully and softly. “None of that, I promise.” Logan speaks softly.

"O-Okay... Thank you, Master." He squeaked and tried to hold in a small scream when he picked him up. But he took a shaky breath to calm down. "I... You're...a better Master already... I... I like you more..." He whispered under his breath as he held on to him, blinking at the sunlight once they got outside and hissing softly. "M-Master... Other Master isn't mad that I choose you, right? You're not mad either?"

“Neither of us are mad, I promise.” Logan says as he places the omega in the car.

"O-Okay... Okay... Thank you, Master. I'm sorry for punishing myself. I'm very sorry." He says, sitting down in the car very stock still. He wanted to be good for his new master after all.

Roman came jogging over with a bag, "Alright, I got snacks and a change of clothes for all of us. Here's I assume the clothes you tried to give him? It was laying on the couch so..." He gave Logan the clothes, "Then toothbrush, toothpaste, uh... I don't think we need anything else... I'll come back tomorrow if he does need to stay."

Logan nods, taking the clothes. “Okay, good. thank you, Roman”

"Of course, man, of course." Roman gives him a quick hug before going over to place the bag in the truck. "I'll drive!" He says as he hops into the drivers seat and started up the car to turn on the heat as it was a bit chilly outside.

The omega watched them curiously, not having an idea what is going on. As the car started he jumped in surprise before resting back down, shifting side to side a bit nervously.

Logan sits next to the omega just in case he needs help. “You’re safe. Nothing is going to hurt you now.” Logan reassures the omega softly.

He glanced over at him once he sat next to him, blinking as to why he did that. And he stared at him at his reassuring words, just staring for several moments. Before giving a nod, "O-Okay... I uh... Okay..." He mumbles, and he didn't sound like he was convinced at all. But he agrees anyways.

"We'll both protect you, alright? Trust me. Your part of our pack now, so you don't have to worry about a thing. Just focus on getting better and we'll do the rest." Roman said as he started pulling out then driving along.

Logan nods. “Yes, Roman is correct.”

He is silent, then glances away. "A...pack?" His voice trembles and he swallows thickly. "I... No... No dark room? I... I don't....want to go back... to dark room... I'm... I'm sorry... I'll be good, I promise." He sounded on the verge of tears and he hiccuped, drawing his hands shakily around himself in a hug.

“No dark room, we promise. You don’t have to apologize.” Logan reassures softly, extremely concerned about the omega.

"Yes, Logan is right. No dark room. We'll make sure you don't ever go back there. We'll keep your room lit at all times. It's okay, it's okay, you've been so good for both of us. We're really happy at how good you've been." Roman replied back, keeping his voice soft. But he glances at Logan from the rear view mirror with concern. And he could tell that Logan feels exactly the same.

"R-Really? Oh... Okay... Thank you... Master's. Thank you." He sounded very relieved, incredibly relieved actually. "You're...good Master's... Thank you." He really did sound greatful, these Master's were already a lot better then his previous ones. He takes a shaky breath and pulls up his knees to his chest, trying to be small as possible.

Logan is extremely concerned for the omega.

Roman is silent for a bit, sharing Logan's exact worried thoughts. This one...might be worse then Logan's case... And he isn't sure if they can even help him. But he wants to try, he really wants to try. "So... Do you have a name? We can't keep calling you 'omega' or any of that forever."

He snapped out of his thoughts to look ahead at Roman. And he shook his head. "No, Master. I don't. I'm whatever a master wants to call me. Some name me slut... Others name me whore. Would you want to name me one of those?"

Logan’s concern quickly turns to worry. “No...”

"What?!" Roman sounded appalled, and concerned. Mixed with anger and disgust as well. "No! No... No, we are not calling you any of those names. Hell no. What about... Hm... What do you think, lo? You are his master after all."

He flinched when they all said no to that. Guess that's...a bad thing? He swallowed thickly and glanced to logan, waiting for his answer but remaining quiet this time.

“Hm.. Dee maybe?” Logan is extremely worried and nervous currently and that is one of the only names he can think of.

"Dee's a good name! What do you think about that name? We could change it if you don't like it." Roman says, honestly he's as worried if not more then Logan right now. But he's trying to lift up the mood the best he could. Which probably isn't very good but hey, he's trying.

"it's... It's okay... Thank you, Master. My name is dee now, thank you." He says, bowing his head. Really any name Logan chose he would've said it was good to. But this name he rather quite...liked. It had a nice ring to it, he thought.

Logan smiles softly, mentally thanking Roman for trying to lift the room.

Roman could tell that he was thanking him quietly, and he smiled at that. He drove into the parking spot at the hospital and sighed as he stopped the car and unbuckled. "Alright, you carry Dee in lo and uh... I guess I can sign the papers? If you want? And you go with Dee to the back while they uh...do whatever they need to do?" He asked, figuring out the plan.

Dee was quiet and he looked out the window, marveling at just how big the building was. It was way bigger then the warehouse, or well, what he thinks the warehouse looked like from the outside.

Logan nods, getting out of the car and going to Dee’s side.

Dee looks up when he gets out of the car, and he slowly attempts to open his door. Once he did he stood up, but he must've stood up way too quickly cause everything spun around suddenly. He grew pale before collasping. Luckily he fell right on Logan and he had his eyes shut, his breathing was uneven and he took shaky breaths in.

Roman practically jumped out of the car when he saw Dee collasping. "Logan, go in now! I'll sign the papers!" He quickly got in the car to grab his keys, rushing around.

Logan nods, scooping Dee up and rushing into the hospital.

Dee whimpered at the sudden movement, gripping onto him hard like he was afraid of falling. But he also hid his head in his chest, the rush of light hurting his eyelids. He could hear voices but it sounded like it was coming from underwater.

Luckily, nurses saw them and rushed over. A few nurses were right behind and guestered Logan over to one of their back rooms. They were speaking to each other while they told Logan to set him on the bed in the room. "We'll take it from here. Can you wait in the waiting room for us, please?"

Logan goes in the room and places him on the bed. “I-I uh okay.” Logan stammers before hesitatingly leaving the room and going back to the waiting room, extremely worried and nervous.

Dee doesn't know what's going on, as he felt hands and what he thinks is needles on his arm. "Ma... Master...?" He shakily whispers under his breath and manages to open his eyes. Only to see that Logan has left and he sighed, his head resting on the pillow once more.

Roman is filling out the paperwork when he looks up. "What they say?" He asked, holding up his wrist for Logan to scent if he needed it. He knows that calms him down most of the time, but he isn't sure about right now.

“That they were going to take over now.” Logan says as he softly holds Roman wrist, smelling his scent which calms a part of Logan but he is still nervous and worried.

"It's gonna be alright, Lo. They'll fix him. I promise you that they'll fix him. Everything will be alright, okay? Sh..." Roman released calming and reassuring scents for him and rubbed his back. He even started nuzzling his cheek with his own. "They'll fix him, and we will go home and really get to know him. Dee is a great name for him by the way. It's a fantastic name." He cooed, trying to calm him down the best he could.

Logan smiles softly as the calming and reassuring scents work, he nuzzles his cheek back gently.

Roman smiles back, glad that the scents were working in calming him down. He nuzzles his cheek back gently and sent more scents his way. And he sighed softly, honestly very worried and concerned himself. But he tries to hide it for Logan's sake.

About a half hour later a nurse comes out and walks over to Logan. "You're the one with the scarred omega right?"

Logan nods, becoming extremely worried. “Yes, is he okay?”

Roman is silent, waiting and squeezing Logan's hand.

"He is stable for now. We think he'll be okay in the long run, yes. He's going to need lots of treatment though. His blood cell count was...we haven't ever seen it as low as his was. We had to do a blood transfusion, mulitiple IVs, an oxygen tank since he was having troubles breathing on his own. He is... He's pretty sick."

Logan nods, still extremely worried but is relieved to here that they think he will be okay in the long run at least and Roman’s presence alone is helping him stay calm. “Ah...” Logan manages to say. Due to the abuse he went through from that alpha, Logan is quite awkward when it comes to social things and is extremely quiet often only answering with one or two words. It took a while for him to properly talk and open up to Roman, Roman being one of few people Logan can properly talk without only using one or two words.

Roman is extremely relieved, worried but relieved. As long as they think he'll be fine in the long run that's good enough for him. That means that he has a good enough chance to survive. He squeezes Logan's hand reassuringly when he hears the single word, knowing exactly what he wants to say. He knows that Logan can't say more then one word in front of strangers, so he often steps in and talks for him. And he knows what he wants to say just from his expression and his tone of that single word. "We are very grateful. Thank you so so much. We are both just... Thank you. Is there any chance we can see him?"

"Yes, you may. Right this way." She points down the hallway and smiles, "No need to thank me. I'm just doing my job." She smiles and opens up a door.

Logan smiles softly at Roman, silently thanking him. When she opens the door, Logan goes in the room quickly with extreme worry all over his face.

Roman smiles back, squeezing his hand yet again to silently say that he doesn't have to thank him. Then he followed them, he stays a bit behind Logan making sure he gets to Dee first.

There are quite a lot of wires going into both of his arms, including the poles beside him. And loud beeping was coming from the heart monitor. Dee looked paler then before, his sticky hair plastered to his forehead. And a mask was over his mouth and nose. He definitely didn't look good right now at all, he looked close to death with how pale he is. He appeared to be asleep, his eyes closed and was resting luckily.

Logan lets out a breath he didn’t know he was holding when he sees Dee but worry still runs his mind currently.

Roman swallows at the sight of Dee. That...didn't look very good... He looked back at the nurse to see that she's already gone, huh, well... Then he glanced at Logan to see his transfixed stare at Dee. "Hey, hey, he's going to be okay. Sh... I know it's a lot. But he's going to be fine." He hugs Logan tightly and rubs his back. Just then he heard a groan come from the omega and he looks over, watching Dee slowly open his eyes and look around.

Logan hugs back, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath in. Logan then looks immediately at Dee when he heard the groan. “H-How are you feeling, Dee?”

Roman looks over as well, holding in his breath. He draws up a chair besides his bed for Logan and himself. Knowing Logan probably won't want to leave his side for a while, knowing him at least.

Dee stared at them, as if he has to really concentrate as to who they are. He was silent for several moments before he swallowed and finally spoke. "T-Tired... Not.... Not good..." He groaned out, Winching a bit. "Hurts..? Hurts... Master...didn't leave me?" He sounded a bit heartbroken, like he actually thought that Logan was going to leave him here and won't come back.

Logan sits down, once again silently thanking Roman. When Dee speaks Logan feels guilty for leaving the room and making Dee think he was going to abandon him. “N-No, I would never. I will n-never. I promise.”

Ran shakes his head without saying anything, as if silently saying don't mention it. He focuses on Dee and shakes his head, "No... No, we won't leave you. We won't ever leave you. Okay?"

Dee blinked between them and he could see some emotion in Logan's eyes. He couldn't place what it was though... He cleared his throat a bit then sucked in a breath. "Really...? Oh... Okay... I'm sorry, Master... Sorry... I thought that... Won't think that again..." He silently stared at the wall for a moment before blinking and coming to. "What's... this?" He points weakly at the mask, it wasn't hurting and he could obviously still talk, but he didn't know what it was for.

“I-It’s a mask that helps you b-breathe.” Logan explains, gripping Roman’s hand gently to remind himself that Roman is here which calms him.

Roman grips his hand back, gently rubbing his thumb along logans hand. He scoots his chair closer and hugs Logan from the side, still holding his hand. He released calming scents again, wanting Logan to know that he's here and not going to leave him.

"Oh... Oh... Okay... Feels funny... Mhm..." He whispers, his voice slurring together. "Mhm... No... No bad men? Bad...alphas... You better Master... Like you... Don't make me eat pups like old Master's... Pups don't taste very good..." He was obviously high off of some drug. But it was making him calm, maybe a bit too calm.

Logan smiles softly at the scents, it working though when Dee says this some bad memories attack his mind but he manages to stay composed and not curl up in a ball. His alpha never made him eat his pups luckily though he did often kill them in front of Logan or forced Logan to kill them. “N-No bad men a-are here... I-I won’t, I-I promise with all my heart.”

Roman is dead silent at what Dee says. He doesn't even know what to say back to that. But he does feel Logan tighten up so he moves his free hand up to massage his scalp. "There is none of that here, we promise. None of that will happen ever again. Now...try to relax okay? Get some sleep. We'll be here when you wake up, little one. Sh..." Roman goes over to pull the blanket over him some more and sighs softly, going right back to Logan side.

Dee glances between both of them. "Okay... Okay... Uh... Is... Is Master okay?" Even in his daze state he noticed his stuttering and little bit of shakingness. Then he blinks at Roman and nods, "Okay... I'll get some sleep...for you Master... Want to be good...for you... Good slave... Mhm... Good slut..." He yawns, then smiles his eyes dropping closed.

Logan has started to space out remembering every pup, what he wanted to name them, and how they died, trembling and leaning into Roman’s warmth. Logan flinches for second when Roman touches his scrap but when he smells Roman’s scent a half second later he stops and leans into Roman’s hand.

Roman could feel him trembling and could feel his flinch, he removes his hand only to see him leaning into it. So he continued massaging his scalp, and he hugs him close and protectively. "Master is alright, he's okay. It's just been a long day for him. You aren't a slave or a slut. You are Dee. And your the best omega anybody could ask for. Now sh... Sh... Go to sleep." He watches Dee slowly fall asleep. Then he digs in his pockets for his earpods that he always carries with him just in case. He places them in Logan's ears then brings out his phone as well. He scrolls through his music to find the playlist he had downloaded just for when Logan gets his flashbacks. He starts playing it then he gently rocked him side to side, humming softly and releasing his calming scents some more. "You're not there, Logan. You're not there. Sh... Focus on the music. Focus on me." He whispered calmly to him.

Logan’s trembling soon stops after Roman starts playing music and releasing his calming scents. Logan relaxes, slowly hugging Roman gently and tired as flashbacks can be tiring and he didn’t get much sleep last night.

Roman smiles when he could feel his trembling slowly coming to a stop. That's great. That's...really really great. And he smiles even more at feeling him relaxing under his hands. Thank God he downloaded that playlist, it has been a lifesaver more then once. He knew he'd be tired right after this so he looks around the room. And luckily there were a small couch at the far end of the wall. Gently he scoops up Logan in his arms and brings him over to the couch, laying Logan on his chest and grabbing a blanket and pillow from where he was. He laid the blanket on them and puts the pillow behind his head. He places a gentle kiss on Logan's forehead then rubs his back. "Go to sleep, Lo. I'll be here. I won't leave you." He whispers to him, yawning himself. It's been a tiring few hours.

“G-Goodnight, Ro.” Logan yawns softly before falling asleep and gently snuggling Roman in his sleep.

"Goodnight, Lo." He whispers back, and he stays awake for a bit longer. Just to make sure that Logan is asleep and Dee is too. The heart monitor is weirdly calming but at the same time stressful. But he sighs and lays down some more, having his arms gently protective around Logan. And he falls asleep snuggling Logan back and he sleeps peacefully.

Logan sleeps peacefully for several hours until a nightmare attacked his first peaceful sleep in around a month causing him to shift slightly and whimper.

Roman was still sound asleep, but when he heard that whimper subconsciously he held him tighter and released more calming scents. "Mhm... No... Bad...sound... Mhm... Not that... Not..." He mumbled in his sleep then turned his head, he rolled over and held Logan almost like a stuffed animal close to his chest.

Logan relaxes, the nightmare stopping. Logan snuggles closer to Roman chest in his sleep.

Roman snuggled him, wrapping his arms and legs around him in his sleep. He immediately went back to sleep once Logan snuggled up to him, even subconsciously knowing that he's fine now.

Just as they were about to go back to sleep Dee's heart monitor started beeping more intensely. And the sounds of the bed rocking back and forth can be heard. Followed by what sounded like crying and mumbling incoherent words.

Logan immediately wakes up, jumping in surprise and falls off the couch before looking at Dee, panicking.

Dee is kicking out at something, his head shaking back and forth and sobbing. Though he was clearly asleep, just having a nightmare by the looks of things. He was doing that for a moment before he suddenly screams at the top of his lungs and jump up, his eyes open with a panic and his breathing is heavy. He brings up his knees to his chest and sobs quietly into his knees.

Roman was starting to wake up when he heard the loud thuds, but at the loud scream he was instantly awake. He snapped awake and nearly fell ontop of logan. But he manages to catch himself and look around to where the screaming came from. Only to see it was Dee who was crying and shaking. He frowns and leans over to Logan to take out the earpods, then he slowly walked over to Dee. "Hey... Hey, it's okay... It's alright. Sh..." He cooed. But Dee only jumped away from him, and looked at him with pure terror.

Logan gets up from the floor slowly and carefully approaches Dee slowly. “Hey.. Dee... it’s okay... you’re safe...”

Roman slowly backs away then, he knows if he keeps going towards him that would only make him panic more.

Dee whips over when he hears Logan and sucks in a breath. His eyes are unfocused for a bit and he just stares at Logan. Until he shakes his head to clear it out. Slowly he registers what he's saying and he hiccups. "M-Master...?" He managed to say, his body shaking. "I... I... N-No... Not... Mhm..." He whispers, shaking his head and curling back into a ball.

“Did you have a nightmare, Dee?” Logan says softly, slowly moving closer to Dee.

"Y-Yes... M-Master..." He hiccuped, hiding his face in his knees the best he could. Though the tugging on the wires were making it hard to do. But he ignored it and kept tugging, sobbing quietly. He seemed to be forcing himself to calm down, probably from his nails digging into his legs so hard that it's causing it to bleed. But it's making himself snap back to reality, which is what he wanted. "Sorry... Sorry... Stupid... M' stupid... I'll... Go back to sleep now... Very.. very... Very sorry...to wake you up.. very... I..." He sucks in a harsh breath then forced himself to lay back down.

“Hey, it’s okay... I’m sorry you had a nightmare... You aren’t stupid.. it’s not your fault, Dee...” Logan speaks softly.

Dee hesitantly glanced at him, still tears pouring down his cheeks but he shakes his head. He immediately wipes it all away and digs his nails into his face to keep from crying some more. "I... Not... Not okay... Not... I.... Why...aren't you... whipping me... Master? I don't.. I... I... Stupid... Stupid...slut... Not..." He takes a shaky breath, "Every night...have nightmares... It's fine... It's... It's okay..."

“You aren’t a s-slut. You are Dee and you are amazing. I’m sorry you have nightmares every night.... I do too.” Logan is extremely worried about Dee.

Dee immediately shook his head, his name now is Dee of course. But he isn't amazing. He is anything but. He's a slut, that's what he is... Though at his whisper he glanced up at him, few bits of blood coming from his cheeks. "Master...has nightmares... N-Not... Not possible... Not... Lying... Lying... Trick... Master's trick... Lie... Master's lie..." He shook his head again and brought up the blanket over his head. "Lie..." He whispered, hiding himself in a tight ball.

Roman glanced over at Logan and bit his lip nervously. Logan wasn't like this at all back when he saved him. Sure, he did hide away when he had nightmares but... He didn't hurt himself or act like this. He wasn't sure what to do.

Logan doesn’t know what to do too. “I can promise you that I am not lying...” Worry and Concern overwhelming Logan as he speaks softly.

Dee could hear the worry in his voice, and it's very clear now. He at first didn't even know what that emotion was. Until he had to realize it sounded a lot like the others when they're being taken away by the alphas. Worry... And fear of course. He swallows and slowly peeks out to look at him. "Master's...don't...get nightmares... They... They give it..." He hiccuped, "You... I... I'm... I'm confused..." He admitted slowly as it was clear that his hands were trembling against his cheeks.

“Not all Masters are like that... I-I used to have a M-Master like that.... B-But now I-I’m free.” Logan says as he slowly ends up next to Dee and carefully and slowly tries to lower Dee’s hands from his face.

"You.... You... You...did?" He had to repeat himself as he tried to focus on his words rather then his shaking and ever growing panic in his mind. "How... You... I... Huh?" He asked, completely confused as to how he had a Master before too. But he's a Master... How does that...make sense... When he moves towards his hands he whimpered and shut his eyes, flinching violently from his hands. Only to open his eyes and look at him, his hands moving with his movements.

Logan slowly and gently moves his hands down away from his face. “I’m sorry for scaring you, I don’t want you to hurt yourself... Yes, I did. I’m sorry you had to go through all that.”

Dee doesn't open his eyes at all while he has hold of his hands. He keeps whimpering and holding his breath, expecting to get hit from him. Ever so slowly he opens his eyes once he moves his hands down then blinks. "You... Bad...hurt... Bad..." He finally sucks in a gasp of air and hugs himself. He doesn't know how to handle of this. That he's apologizing to him. That he really had a Master before too. None of this makes much sense to him. "I... I... I don't... I..." He shuts his eyes again and shakes his head, he was still shaking but it wasn't nearly as bad as before. And his breathing has gone down now that he's thinking of what Logan's saying. "Sorry...? Sorry... Sorry... Wake up bad... Sorry." He mumbled.

“It’s okay. I’m sorry for startling you. I was going to wake up from a nightmare soon most likely so you kinda saved me from another nightmare. Thank you.” Logan says softly.

"You...were? I uh... Um... I... Huh?" He definitely seemed confused at the thanks, he's never been...thanked before. He stares at him as if he's crazy, blinking and not saying anything else. He glances over at Roman to make sure he wasn't crazy and no... He's nodding along to what he's saying. Then he glanced back at Logan, he didn't know how to respond to that at all. Though, he guessed it's good that he...sorta saved him from another nightmare...he suppose?

Logan smiles softly at Dee.

"I... I... M' sorry? I uh... I'm... Why are...you saying sorry...to me? I'm... I'm confused... I'm... Why... I don't... Understand?" He stuttered, sounding very confused and lost. "Why... How... You had a Master... You..." He swallowed thickly, raising up his hands again but to just wipe away the tears some more so he could see. "Go...back to bed... Master... Sorry..." He knows he won't be able to get any more sleep for the rest of the night now though. Once he has a nightmare he normally can't fall asleep again, no matter how hard he tries.

Logan is extremely worried. “I want to make sure you are as okay as you can be currently....”

Dee stares at him, confused beyond belief. "Why...?" Why does he care if he's okay? Or as okay as he could be? Why... That doesn't make any sense to him. Why would a Master bother to make sure he's okay? This doesn't make any sense to him...

Logan has concern and worry all over his face and body language.

A lone omega runs down an alleyway, he didn't have a single idea where he was going or where he even was. His only thought was to run. He only wore a thong and a collar with a leash that was dragging behind him, clearly a sign that he was a slave to some alpha. His hands were tied and he had a muzzle strapped to his mouth. And was covered in scars from head to toe, half of his body being burned by flames. And he was in heat, heavily in heat.

Logan, a beta, had been walking to a bookstore when he smelt the lone omega in heat and could tell something was wrong. Logan quickly figured out where the scent was coming from and ran into the alleyway to help.

The smell of fear was coming off in waves from this one omega, plus the smell of heat. It was strong enough to attract anybody nearby really. But he didn't know that. He was too terrified to even think properly. The only thoughts going through his mind was to run away. Run before his masters catch him. When he saw somebody running towards him he froze, trying to step back only to fall on the pavement. He whimpered and whined, sobbing loudly and pleading. His arms and hands over his face to protect himself and his entire body trembling and violently shaking. He wasn't even sure if he was breathing or not, judging by how badly his chest was caving in it definitely didn't feel like he was. He could smell the distant scent that came from him but he couldn't concentrate long enough to figure out that he was a beta.

Logan rushed to his side. “Hey, calm down. I’m not going to hurt you. Can you tell me what is going on?”

He gave a yelp of surprise when he rushed over to him, he sobbed shutting his eyes in fear. Then he shook his head, tears streaming down his eyes and he looked so scared and terrified. Just then he heard what sounded like footsteps coming down the other side of the alleyway and he gave a muffled scream, he could recongize that scent anywhere. He was frozen in fear though, his eyes even wider. He's going to die... He's going to die... They're gonna kill him. It's all over.

Logan gets the sense that whoever was making those footsteps isn’t good. “I’m going to pick you up, sorry if it hurts.” Logan says before picking the omega up, using adrenaline he starts to run out of the alleyway.

He makes a tiny noise before he's suddenly picked up. He didn't even hear what Logan had just said so when he's suddenly picked up he nearly jumped so badly he just about fell from his arms. Luckily he didn't and he was in shock to find him running away. What...is he doing?! He looked behind to see that luckily they got out of there just in time before the alphas had gotten to where they just were. His gaze landed on Logan and he whimpered behind the muzzle, holding his hands close to his chest. He was still scared, this beta could be taking him to a group of alphas for all he knows.

Logan keeps running, heading back quickly to his apartment. He hopes that his memory of one his roommate who happens to be an alpha saying he was heading out is correct. As much as he trusts him he thinks the omega isn’t going to be comfortable with an alpha nearby currently.

The omega was crying the entire way, scared of what was to happen and become of him. What if Master's follow him? What if he's heading to New Master's? What if he's going to hurt him himself? There's so many what ifs and he's so terrified right now. He didn't stop crying even when Logan got into the apartment and had closed the door. By then his hands were raised to protect himself while he was crying. His cheeks covered in tears and his eyes red and puffy.

Logan quickly locks the door before placing him on the couch gently. Logan carefully removes the muzzle, speaking softly to him. “Hey, you’re safe. I promise that no one is going to hurt you. I’m trying to help you.

He gave a cry when he was placed on the couch before stopping and looking down, not harmful? Not harmful. Okay. Then he flinched and whimpered, crying out when he moved to touch him. Only to realize he's taking off the muzzle. There were obvious signs that it's been on his mouth for a very long time, his peeling and blistering skin is anything to go by. When he opened his mouth the other could see that his tongue is completely missing. He hiccuped and curled up against the couch, shaking his head. "M-Master... Master... Master... He... You... I... I can't... No... I..." He stuttered over himself, his breathing quick. He was obviously too scared to even make much sense. The thong basically did nothing and he was making a small mess on the couch by his slick.

Logan quickly grabs some of his own spare clothes. “I need you to try to calm down a bit. I have some spare clothes you can borrow.” Logan is worried about this omega. From a past relationship he knew a small bit about how the omega is most likely feeling right now.

"N-No... No... Need... Need Master's...permission... I can't... Get in trouble... Trouble bad.... Trouble... I... I can't get... No.... No clothes..." He frantically shakes his head, looking at the clothes as if it'll burn him, which might not be far from the truth judging by how many scars he has. He tries to take deep breaths in, but it was so hard when his panicked thoughts are going so crazy right now. "I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." He whispered, shaking. "Gonna... Gonna...sell me? Take...to Master's or... Or... I..."

“It’s okay. I’m got going to any of that. I’m to call an ambulance and police, they are trained for situations like this and it’s going to help much better than I can on my own.”

"I... But... What.... They'll..." He takes another shaky breath to try and concentrate on talking. "Master's... Master's...in... Master's are in...work for police... Alphas work...for police... Black uniforms... Black uniforms with handcuffs... I think that's police... Will get me... They will get me." He says shakily, trying to calm down the best he could. Luckily it was getting easier and easier as he looked around the place and as time went by, he thought if he was gonna sell him he would be calling around already.

Logan is very worried by this. “Okay, let me think for a second.” Logan begins to think about what he should do, assessing every reasonable option.

He shakily nods, "A-Are you... Are you...my Master now...?" He asked hesitantly, then shut up so he could think. He was quiet, staring at him then everything around them taking the place in. He didn't understand what most of these things do, in all honesty... Even though he was curious he stayed perfectly still, not wanting to move unless told to. He didn't want to test the patience of this beta.

"Hello?" A voice entered the room, the front door being opened and the sound of keys being jangled could be heard.

Logan immediately chokes on his own tongue when he says that. “N-No. uh, um.” Logan is seriously caught off guard by that question.

"I-I... Huh...? But you...saved me...? You own...me now? I'm... I'm confused?" He stared at him, not understanding why he denied it. Either he is his new master or...he's being sold off... But he said no to being sold off so he's...really confused right now. Just as he was starting to finally calm down the door had opened and he jumped up. And his eyes instantly widened in fear when he smelt the alpha smell.

"Lo? You're back already too? Turns out that theater place was a ditch, such a shame too." Roman walked over to the living room and he froze at the scene before him. He was about ready to take off his bag when he spotted the nearly naked man on their couch. And he was definitely in heat. His nose winkled and he glanced at Logan. "Uh... Lo... Care to explain why a nearly naked omega that in heavy heat is currently in our apartment? Did you order a prostitute or something?"

“On my way to the bookstore I found this omega running from someone who he calls ‘Master’ who is most likely someone who has abused him and might kill him. So, no I have not ordered a prostitute.”

"Ah... Well, that's a shame. Cause my hormones are going bonkers right now. He..." Roman took a moment to process everything he just said. He glanced back at Logan, "Is it like... with you?" He asked, knowing about Logan's past. He was the one who helped him break from his alphas control after all.

The omega was dead quiet, he stared at Roman in pure horror. Is this who he's going to give him too?! He couldn't even ask any questions, all that came out was little peeps and hiccups.

“Yes, it is like that.” Logan can sense that the omega is more than terrified so he turns. “He’s not going to hurt you. I’m not selling you or letting you get hurt. He is a great friend of mine, I know him well and he is isn’t going to take advantage of you, I promise.

"Oh... Gotcha..." Roman takes a deep breath, trying to remember what he did with logan back then. Be a rock and ground him. Comfort him... Okay. Very slowly he kneeled down so he wasn't towering over the quivering omega. And he forced himself to push back his instincts on breeding this Omega. He clearly doesn't need that. And very slowly he scoots a bit forward so he was kneeling before the omega. And he let out calming scents. "I promise i won't ever hurt you, alright? I promise on my life. Can you take a breath for me? Focus on my voice and my scent. Sh... Sh... Breathe..."

The omega didn't know what was happening. But when Logan turned to him he looked over. Only to swallow and let out a few more peeps, but he seemed a bit calmer at that. Not take advantage... He jumped when Roman moved, only to blink when he kneeled down to the ground. He didn't know how to even respond to this. He stared at Roman then at Logan, being completely baffled and confused. "W-What...? But I...need a Master.... Need... I can't... Please? Can I have a Master? Please? I can't... I don't know...what to do with myself... Please..." He begged to them, clearly conditioned to needing a Master for everything.

Logan sighs softly, knowing this mindset more than he would like to. “You don’t need a Master, I promise. What they have done to you is wrong and what they have told you about needing a Master is false.” Logan speaks calmly and softly. Letting out calming scents like Roman but they are definitely not as strong as Roman’s due to some events from his past.

"I... I... N-No... I... I need..." He stuttered, shaking his head with tears in his eyes. He sounded devasted, like somebody told him his dog just died. He put his head in his hands and sobbed loudly once more, crying as if he lost something precious to him. "I... No... Not wrong... Not bad... No... They weren't... N-No... Please... Please..." He sobbed, "I need... A master.... Please!!" He begged, he looked around and noticed the wall behind him. He stood up and started slamming his head against the wall with enough force to make the wall shake. "I'm bad! Bad! Bad!!"

"I'll be your Master!" Roman blurted out, he didn't want to, obviously, but he didn't know how else to calm him down.

Logan quickly puts his arm in between him and the wall. “Calm down. You aren’t bad. If you need a Master, I will be your Master.” Logan says trying to keep his voice steady and calm.

"Are you sure, Logan? He... He's worse off then you were... And..." Roman said nervously, whispering to him. He isn't certain about Logan taking care of him, it might trigger some memories...

He immediately stops when he puts an arm between him. Then freezes when they both shouted that they were gonna be his master's. He looked back and stared between them. Then he took a shaky breath and nods, he stands perfectly still as some blood trickle down his head. "Okay... Master's... I'm... I'm sorry... I'm very sorry..." He sat back down, his head down and he immediately calmed down.

“I... I am not completely sure...” Logan whispers back, admitting he isn’t completely comfortable with taking care of him as he already close to an ‘episode’. Logan quickly gets a first aid kit before starting to treat the wounds on the omega the best he can.

"Okay, let me take care of him. He'll listen to me more anyways since I'm an alpha. He might question later why he's listening to a beta. It's alright." Roman whispers to him, then moves out of his way. Only to help him care for the wound on the omegas head. "Or do you think we should let him choose? I... I don't really know. You gravitated towards me but that might just be cause I kept getting in your way back then..."

He sat perfectly still while they tended to his wound, not even moving a bit.

“I don’t really know either. I think we should let him choose so he can get used to choosing for himself easier?...” Logan whispers as he and Roman care for the wound.

"Yeah, thats a good idea. It'll be a nice first step to getting him used to that. Jesus, can he take one of your heat suppressors first? It is so hard trying to concentrate with that heat smell." He says with a low growl in his voice, but he shakes his head and groans.

Logan nods, quickly getting one as he notes that he’s running low on them before returning and crouching in front of the omega. “Hey, I need you to take this. It doesn’t hurt, I promise.”

Roman scoots a bit back once he rushes off to compose himself. He knows it'll take about twenty minutes for it to really take effect but at least he'll have taken it.

He slowly looks up once he was addressed and he looks down at the pill. He debates on whether he should take it or not. Before swallowing his fear and gets the pill, quickly swallowing it dry. He is scared of taking it of course, since his master's did gave them drugs a lot, but he didn't want to anger any of them either.

“They aren’t harmful, they help a lot in heat. They also help my friend, Roman, keep control of himself and his instincts better.” Logan says trying to reassure him that he is safe.

"Okay, Master... Thank you. I'm sorry I hurt other Master from my heat... Why isn't he breeding me...? Or you?" He asked, finally looking up at both of them. Then he bites his lip, "Sorry for asking questions... Am I allowed to ask questions, Master's?"

Roman shivered at how dull his voice sounded. Yep... Exactly like how Logan sounded... "Hey, little omega." He scoots closer to him, keeping his hands down onto the rug. "We have a question for you. And yes, you may ask as many questions as your heart wants. You wont get in trouble by it. No question is dumb. And no breeding, we don't do breeding here. Unless you want it." He takes a breath, "Would you want me as your master or Logan here? You get to choose who you want to follow, is that alright?"

“It is not your fault.” Logan shivers with Roman, remembering when he was like this. Logan nods, agreeing with Roman and looking in between the omega and Roman slowly.

He was silent, looking between both of them. He...gets to choose? That's...really strange. Sometimes he does have two or three Master's at a time. So this is strange. And he is scared at picking the wrong one and the other being angry at him. As he debates this he bites his lip nervously hugging himself. Very slowly he points at Logan, he trusted him more then Roman right now. Especially since he's a beta. Then he quickly looked at Roman, only to flinch and look away.

"Hey, hey, that's good. Thank you for choosing and answering us. Here," He gets up to go to the kitchen, and he comes back with half a cookie. "A treat for being so good for us so far." He gives him the cookie and luckily he takes it, but he glances at Logan. "You're gonna be up for this?"

Logan nods hesitantly. “Y-Yes.”

Roman obviously hears his stutter and he smiles softly, "Come here." He stands up and backs away so the omega won't think he's towering over him or anything. And he hugs Logan, "You can do this, okay? I know you can. You've come so so far. If it ever gets too much you can tell him to stay in your room and come to mine, okay? Or tell him to listen and follow me. I won't mind it at all." He whispers to his ear.

He glances at the cookie and sniffs it hesitantly, he's never seen this before... Strange... It doesn't smell bad or rotten so that's good... He slowly takes a nibble from the cookie but once he tastes the flavor his eyes widened. He shovels the entire thing in his mouth and happily chews it, loving the taste. "Thank you!" He says around his mouthful.

Logan hugs back, nodding softly.

Roman gives a gentle squeeze, "So... We should probably take this guy to the hospital first. He looks pretty...thin and sickly... He might have to stay overnight just by the looks of him... You get him in the car and I pack a bag?" He asked, thinking that was probably the best course of action.

Logan nods, turning to help the omega. “We’re going to get you to a hospital, okay?”

"Hos...pital....? What's that, Master?" He asked, taking his hand a bit shakily to stand up. He got dizzy when he stood up though and had to grip on the couch to keep steady and not fall. Taking a few shaky breaths he tried to stop the room from spinning.

Roman rushed into his room to grab his back and start packing.

Logan helps him stand shifting him so he is supporting the omega. “It’s a place where doctors work and they help heal sick and injuried people. They are good.”

He whimpered when he moved him, thinking he was going to toss him to the ground and force him to move. But instead he blinked and was shocked to see him actually supporting him. Uh... "O-Oh... No... No previous... Master's...? No...cops?" He asked shakily, his head hurting the more he moved. But he forced himself to keep going for Logan.

Logan nods, quickly picking him up carefully and softly. “None of that, I promise.” Logan speaks softly.

"O-Okay... Thank you, Master." He squeaked and tried to hold in a small scream when he picked him up. But he took a shaky breath to calm down. "I... You're...a better Master already... I... I like you more..." He whispered under his breath as he held on to him, blinking at the sunlight once they got outside and hissing softly. "M-Master... Other Master isn't mad that I choose you, right? You're not mad either?"

“Neither of us are mad, I promise.” Logan says as he places the omega in the car.

"O-Okay... Okay... Thank you, Master. I'm sorry for punishing myself. I'm very sorry." He says, sitting down in the car very stock still. He wanted to be good for his new master after all.

Roman came jogging over with a bag, "Alright, I got snacks and a change of clothes for all of us. Here's I assume the clothes you tried to give him? It was laying on the couch so..." He gave Logan the clothes, "Then toothbrush, toothpaste, uh... I don't think we need anything else... I'll come back tomorrow if he does need to stay."

Logan nods, taking the clothes. “Okay, good. thank you, Roman”

"Of course, man, of course." Roman gives him a quick hug before going over to place the bag in the truck. "I'll drive!" He says as he hops into the drivers seat and started up the car to turn on the heat as it was a bit chilly outside.

The omega watched them curiously, not having an idea what is going on. As the car started he jumped in surprise before resting back down, shifting side to side a bit nervously.

Logan sits next to the omega just in case he needs help. “You’re safe. Nothing is going to hurt you now.” Logan reassures the omega softly.

He glanced over at him once he sat next to him, blinking as to why he did that. And he stared at him at his reassuring words, just staring for several moments. Before giving a nod, "O-Okay... I uh... Okay..." He mumbles, and he didn't sound like he was convinced at all. But he agrees anyways.

"We'll both protect you, alright? Trust me. Your part of our pack now, so you don't have to worry about a thing. Just focus on getting better and we'll do the rest." Roman said as he started pulling out then driving along.

Logan nods. “Yes, Roman is correct.”

He is silent, then glances away. "A...pack?" His voice trembles and he swallows thickly. "I... No... No dark room? I... I don't....want to go back... to dark room... I'm... I'm sorry... I'll be good, I promise." He sounded on the verge of tears and he hiccuped, drawing his hands shakily around himself in a hug.

“No dark room, we promise. You don’t have to apologize.” Logan reassures softly, extremely concerned about the omega.

"Yes, Logan is right. No dark room. We'll make sure you don't ever go back there. We'll keep your room lit at all times. It's okay, it's okay, you've been so good for both of us. We're really happy at how good you've been." Roman replied back, keeping his voice soft. But he glances at Logan from the rear view mirror with concern. And he could tell that Logan feels exactly the same.

"R-Really? Oh... Okay... Thank you... Master's. Thank you." He sounded very relieved, incredibly relieved actually. "You're...good Master's... Thank you." He really did sound greatful, these Master's were already a lot better then his previous ones. He takes a shaky breath and pulls up his knees to his chest, trying to be small as possible.

Logan is extremely concerned for the omega.

Roman is silent for a bit, sharing Logan's exact worried thoughts. This one...might be worse then Logan's case... And he isn't sure if they can even help him. But he wants to try, he really wants to try. "So... Do you have a name? We can't keep calling you 'omega' or any of that forever."

He snapped out of his thoughts to look ahead at Roman. And he shook his head. "No, Master. I don't. I'm whatever a master wants to call me. Some name me slut... Others name me whore. Would you want to name me one of those?"

Logan’s concern quickly turns to worry. “No...”

"What?!" Roman sounded appalled, and concerned. Mixed with anger and disgust as well. "No! No... No, we are not calling you any of those names. Hell no. What about... Hm... What do you think, lo? You are his master after all."

He flinched when they all said no to that. Guess that's...a bad thing? He swallowed thickly and glanced to logan, waiting for his answer but remaining quiet this time.

“Hm.. Dee maybe?” Logan is extremely worried and nervous currently and that is one of the only names he can think of.

"Dee's a good name! What do you think about that name? We could change it if you don't like it." Roman says, honestly he's as worried if not more then Logan right now. But he's trying to lift up the mood the best he could. Which probably isn't very good but hey, he's trying.

"it's... It's okay... Thank you, Master. My name is dee now, thank you." He says, bowing his head. Really any name Logan chose he would've said it was good to. But this name he rather quite...liked. It had a nice ring to it, he thought.

Logan smiles softly, mentally thanking Roman for trying to lift the room.

Roman could tell that he was thanking him quietly, and he smiled at that. He drove into the parking spot at the hospital and sighed as he stopped the car and unbuckled. "Alright, you carry Dee in lo and uh... I guess I can sign the papers? If you want? And you go with Dee to the back while they uh...do whatever they need to do?" He asked, figuring out the plan.

Dee was quiet and he looked out the window, marveling at just how big the building was. It was way bigger then the warehouse, or well, what he thinks the warehouse looked like from the outside.

Logan nods, getting out of the car and going to Dee’s side.

Dee looks up when he gets out of the car, and he slowly attempts to open his door. Once he did he stood up, but he must've stood up way too quickly cause everything spun around suddenly. He grew pale before collasping. Luckily he fell right on Logan and he had his eyes shut, his breathing was uneven and he took shaky breaths in.

Roman practically jumped out of the car when he saw Dee collasping. "Logan, go in now! I'll sign the papers!" He quickly got in the car to grab his keys, rushing around.

Logan nods, scooping Dee up and rushing into the hospital.

Dee whimpered at the sudden movement, gripping onto him hard like he was afraid of falling. But he also hid his head in his chest, the rush of light hurting his eyelids. He could hear voices but it sounded like it was coming from underwater.

Luckily, nurses saw them and rushed over. A few nurses were right behind and guestered Logan over to one of their back rooms. They were speaking to each other while they told Logan to set him on the bed in the room. "We'll take it from here. Can you wait in the waiting room for us, please?"

Logan goes in the room and places him on the bed. “I-I uh okay.” Logan stammers before hesitatingly leaving the room and going back to the waiting room, extremely worried and nervous.

Dee doesn't know what's going on, as he felt hands and what he thinks is needles on his arm. "Ma... Master...?" He shakily whispers under his breath and manages to open his eyes. Only to see that Logan has left and he sighed, his head resting on the pillow once more.

Roman is filling out the paperwork when he looks up. "What they say?" He asked, holding up his wrist for Logan to scent if he needed it. He knows that calms him down most of the time, but he isn't sure about right now.

“That they were going to take over now.” Logan says as he softly holds Roman wrist, smelling his scent which calms a part of Logan but he is still nervous and worried.

"It's gonna be alright, Lo. They'll fix him. I promise you that they'll fix him. Everything will be alright, okay? Sh..." Roman released calming and reassuring scents for him and rubbed his back. He even started nuzzling his cheek with his own. "They'll fix him, and we will go home and really get to know him. Dee is a great name for him by the way. It's a fantastic name." He cooed, trying to calm him down the best he could.

Logan smiles softly as the calming and reassuring scents work, he nuzzles his cheek back gently.

Roman smiles back, glad that the scents were working in calming him down. He nuzzles his cheek back gently and sent more scents his way. And he sighed softly, honestly very worried and concerned himself. But he tries to hide it for Logan's sake.

About a half hour later a nurse comes out and walks over to Logan. "You're the one with the scarred omega right?"

Logan nods, becoming extremely worried. “Yes, is he okay?”

Roman is silent, waiting and squeezing Logan's hand.

"He is stable for now. We think he'll be okay in the long run, yes. He's going to need lots of treatment though. His blood cell count was...we haven't ever seen it as low as his was. We had to do a blood transfusion, mulitiple IVs, an oxygen tank since he was having troubles breathing on his own. He is... He's pretty sick."

Logan nods, still extremely worried but is relieved to here that they think he will be okay in the long run at least and Roman’s presence alone is helping him stay calm. “Ah...” Logan manages to say. Due to the abuse he went through from that alpha, Logan is quite awkward when it comes to social things and is extremely quiet often only answering with one or two words. It took a while for him to properly talk and open up to Roman, Roman being one of few people Logan can properly talk without only using one or two words.

Roman is extremely relieved, worried but relieved. As long as they think he'll be fine in the long run that's good enough for him. That means that he has a good enough chance to survive. He squeezes Logan's hand reassuringly when he hears the single word, knowing exactly what he wants to say. He knows that Logan can't say more then one word in front of strangers, so he often steps in and talks for him. And he knows what he wants to say just from his expression and his tone of that single word. "We are very grateful. Thank you so so much. We are both just... Thank you. Is there any chance we can see him?"

"Yes, you may. Right this way." She points down the hallway and smiles, "No need to thank me. I'm just doing my job." She smiles and opens up a door.

Logan smiles softly at Roman, silently thanking him. When she opens the door, Logan goes in the room quickly with extreme worry all over his face.

Roman smiles back, squeezing his hand yet again to silently say that he doesn't have to thank him. Then he followed them, he stays a bit behind Logan making sure he gets to Dee first.

There are quite a lot of wires going into both of his arms, including the poles beside him. And loud beeping was coming from the heart monitor. Dee looked paler then before, his sticky hair plastered to his forehead. And a mask was over his mouth and nose. He definitely didn't look good right now at all, he looked close to death with how pale he is. He appeared to be asleep, his eyes closed and was resting luckily.

Logan lets out a breath he didn’t know he was holding when he sees Dee but worry still runs his mind currently.

Roman swallows at the sight of Dee. That...didn't look very good... He looked back at the nurse to see that she's already gone, huh, well... Then he glanced at Logan to see his transfixed stare at Dee. "Hey, hey, he's going to be okay. Sh... I know it's a lot. But he's going to be fine." He hugs Logan tightly and rubs his back. Just then he heard a groan come from the omega and he looks over, watching Dee slowly open his eyes and look around.

Logan hugs back, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath in. Logan then looks immediately at Dee when he heard the groan. “H-How are you feeling, Dee?”

Roman looks over as well, holding in his breath. He draws up a chair besides his bed for Logan and himself. Knowing Logan probably won't want to leave his side for a while, knowing him at least.

Dee stared at them, as if he has to really concentrate as to who they are. He was silent for several moments before he swallowed and finally spoke. "T-Tired... Not.... Not good..." He groaned out, Winching a bit. "Hurts..? Hurts... Master...didn't leave me?" He sounded a bit heartbroken, like he actually thought that Logan was going to leave him here and won't come back.

Logan sits down, once again silently thanking Roman. When Dee speaks Logan feels guilty for leaving the room and making Dee think he was going to abandon him. “N-No, I would never. I will n-never. I promise.”

Ran shakes his head without saying anything, as if silently saying don't mention it. He focuses on Dee and shakes his head, "No... No, we won't leave you. We won't ever leave you. Okay?"

Dee blinked between them and he could see some emotion in Logan's eyes. He couldn't place what it was though... He cleared his throat a bit then sucked in a breath. "Really...? Oh... Okay... I'm sorry, Master... Sorry... I thought that... Won't think that again..." He silently stared at the wall for a moment before blinking and coming to. "What's... this?" He points weakly at the mask, it wasn't hurting and he could obviously still talk, but he didn't know what it was for.

“I-It’s a mask that helps you b-breathe.” Logan explains, gripping Roman’s hand gently to remind himself that Roman is here which calms him.

Roman grips his hand back, gently rubbing his thumb along logans hand. He scoots his chair closer and hugs Logan from the side, still holding his hand. He released calming scents again, wanting Logan to know that he's here and not going to leave him.

"Oh... Oh... Okay... Feels funny... Mhm..." He whispers, his voice slurring together. "Mhm... No... No bad men? Bad...alphas... You better Master... Like you... Don't make me eat pups like old Master's... Pups don't taste very good..." He was obviously high off of some drug. But it was making him calm, maybe a bit too calm.

Logan smiles softly at the scents, it working though when Dee says this some bad memories attack his mind but he manages to stay composed and not curl up in a ball. His alpha never made him eat his pups luckily though he did often kill them in front of Logan or forced Logan to kill them. “N-No bad men a-are here... I-I won’t, I-I promise with all my heart.”

Roman is dead silent at what Dee says. He doesn't even know what to say back to that. But he does feel Logan tighten up so he moves his free hand up to massage his scalp. "There is none of that here, we promise. None of that will happen ever again. Now...try to relax okay? Get some sleep. We'll be here when you wake up, little one. Sh..." Roman goes over to pull the blanket over him some more and sighs softly, going right back to Logan side.

Dee glances between both of them. "Okay... Okay... Uh... Is... Is Master okay?" Even in his daze state he noticed his stuttering and little bit of shakingness. Then he blinks at Roman and nods, "Okay... I'll get some sleep...for you Master... Want to be good...for you... Good slave... Mhm... Good slut..." He yawns, then smiles his eyes dropping closed.

Logan has started to space out remembering every pup, what he wanted to name them, and how they died, trembling and leaning into Roman’s warmth. Logan flinches for second when Roman touches his scrap but when he smells Roman’s scent a half second later he stops and leans into Roman’s hand.

Roman could feel him trembling and could feel his flinch, he removes his hand only to see him leaning into it. So he continued massaging his scalp, and he hugs him close and protectively. "Master is alright, he's okay. It's just been a long day for him. You aren't a slave or a slut. You are Dee. And your the best omega anybody could ask for. Now sh... Sh... Go to sleep." He watches Dee slowly fall asleep. Then he digs in his pockets for his earpods that he always carries with him just in case. He places them in Logan's ears then brings out his phone as well. He scrolls through his music to find the playlist he had downloaded just for when Logan gets his flashbacks. He starts playing it then he gently rocked him side to side, humming softly and releasing his calming scents some more. "You're not there, Logan. You're not there. Sh... Focus on the music. Focus on me." He whispered calmly to him.

Logan’s trembling soon stops after Roman starts playing music and releasing his calming scents. Logan relaxes, slowly hugging Roman gently and tired as flashbacks can be tiring and he didn’t get much sleep last night.

Roman smiles when he could feel his trembling slowly coming to a stop. That's great. That's...really really great. And he smiles even more at feeling him relaxing under his hands. Thank God he downloaded that playlist, it has been a lifesaver more then once. He knew he'd be tired right after this so he looks around the room. And luckily there were a small couch at the far end of the wall. Gently he scoops up Logan in his arms and brings him over to the couch, laying Logan on his chest and grabbing a blanket and pillow from where he was. He laid the blanket on them and puts the pillow behind his head. He places a gentle kiss on Logan's forehead then rubs his back. "Go to sleep, Lo. I'll be here. I won't leave you." He whispers to him, yawning himself. It's been a tiring few hours.

“G-Goodnight, Ro.” Logan yawns softly before falling asleep and gently snuggling Roman in his sleep.

"Goodnight, Lo." He whispers back, and he stays awake for a bit longer. Just to make sure that Logan is asleep and Dee is too. The heart monitor is weirdly calming but at the same time stressful. But he sighs and lays down some more, having his arms gently protective around Logan. And he falls asleep snuggling Logan back and he sleeps peacefully.

Logan sleeps peacefully for several hours until a nightmare attacked his first peaceful sleep in around a month causing him to shift slightly and whimper.

Roman was still sound asleep, but when he heard that whimper subconsciously he held him tighter and released more calming scents. "Mhm... No... Bad...sound... Mhm... Not that... Not..." He mumbled in his sleep then turned his head, he rolled over and held Logan almost like a stuffed animal close to his chest.

Logan relaxes, the nightmare stopping. Logan snuggles closer to Roman chest in his sleep.

Roman snuggled him, wrapping his arms and legs around him in his sleep. He immediately went back to sleep once Logan snuggled up to him, even subconsciously knowing that he's fine now.

Just as they were about to go back to sleep Dee's heart monitor started beeping more intensely. And the sounds of the bed rocking back and forth can be heard. Followed by what sounded like crying and mumbling incoherent words.

Logan immediately wakes up, jumping in surprise and falls off the couch before looking at Dee, panicking.

Dee is kicking out at something, his head shaking back and forth and sobbing. Though he was clearly asleep, just having a nightmare by the looks of things. He was doing that for a moment before he suddenly screams at the top of his lungs and jump up, his eyes open with a panic and his breathing is heavy. He brings up his knees to his chest and sobs quietly into his knees.

Roman was starting to wake up when he heard the loud thuds, but at the loud scream he was instantly awake. He snapped awake and nearly fell ontop of logan. But he manages to catch himself and look around to where the screaming came from. Only to see it was Dee who was crying and shaking. He frowns and leans over to Logan to take out the earpods, then he slowly walked over to Dee. "Hey... Hey, it's okay... It's alright. Sh..." He cooed. But Dee only jumped away from him, and looked at him with pure terror.

Logan gets up from the floor slowly and carefully approaches Dee slowly. “Hey.. Dee... it’s okay... you’re safe...”

Roman slowly backs away then, he knows if he keeps going towards him that would only make him panic more.

Dee whips over when he hears Logan and sucks in a breath. His eyes are unfocused for a bit and he just stares at Logan. Until he shakes his head to clear it out. Slowly he registers what he's saying and he hiccups. "M-Master...?" He managed to say, his body shaking. "I... I... N-No... Not... Mhm..." He whispers, shaking his head and curling back into a ball.

“Did you have a nightmare, Dee?” Logan says softly, slowly moving closer to Dee.

"Y-Yes... M-Master..." He hiccuped, hiding his face in his knees the best he could. Though the tugging on the wires were making it hard to do. But he ignored it and kept tugging, sobbing quietly. He seemed to be forcing himself to calm down, probably from his nails digging into his legs so hard that it's causing it to bleed. But it's making himself snap back to reality, which is what he wanted. "Sorry... Sorry... Stupid... M' stupid... I'll... Go back to sleep now... Very.. very... Very sorry...to wake you up.. very... I..." He sucks in a harsh breath then forced himself to lay back down.

“Hey, it’s okay... I’m sorry you had a nightmare... You aren’t stupid.. it’s not your fault, Dee...” Logan speaks softly.

Dee hesitantly glanced at him, still tears pouring down his cheeks but he shakes his head. He immediately wipes it all away and digs his nails into his face to keep from crying some more. "I... Not... Not okay... Not... I.... Why...aren't you... whipping me... Master? I don't.. I... I... Stupid... Stupid...slut... Not..." He takes a shaky breath, "Every night...have nightmares... It's fine... It's... It's okay..."

“You aren’t a s-slut. You are Dee and you are amazing. I’m sorry you have nightmares every night.... I do too.” Logan is extremely worried about Dee.

Dee immediately shook his head, his name now is Dee of course. But he isn't amazing. He is anything but. He's a slut, that's what he is... Though at his whisper he glanced up at him, few bits of blood coming from his cheeks. "Master...has nightmares... N-Not... Not possible... Not... Lying... Lying... Trick... Master's trick... Lie... Master's lie..." He shook his head again and brought up the blanket over his head. "Lie..." He whispered, hiding himself in a tight ball.

Roman glanced over at Logan and bit his lip nervously. Logan wasn't like this at all back when he saved him. Sure, he did hide away when he had nightmares but... He didn't hurt himself or act like this. He wasn't sure what to do.

Logan doesn’t know what to do too. “I can promise you that I am not lying...” Worry and Concern overwhelming Logan as he speaks softly.

Dee could hear the worry in his voice, and it's very clear now. He at first didn't even know what that emotion was. Until he had to realize it sounded a lot like the others when they're being taken away by the alphas. Worry... And fear of course. He swallows and slowly peeks out to look at him. "Master's...don't...get nightmares... They... They give it..." He hiccuped, "You... I... I'm... I'm confused..." He admitted slowly as it was clear that his hands were trembling against his cheeks.

“Not all Masters are like that... I-I used to have a M-Master like that.... B-But now I-I’m free.” Logan says as he slowly ends up next to Dee and carefully and slowly tries to lower Dee’s hands from his face.

"You.... You... You...did?" He had to repeat himself as he tried to focus on his words rather then his shaking and ever growing panic in his mind. "How... You... I... Huh?" He asked, completely confused as to how he had a Master before too. But he's a Master... How does that...make sense... When he moves towards his hands he whimpered and shut his eyes, flinching violently from his hands. Only to open his eyes and look at him, his hands moving with his movements.

Logan slowly and gently moves his hands down away from his face. “I’m sorry for scaring you, I don’t want you to hurt yourself... Yes, I did. I’m sorry you had to go through all that.”

Dee doesn't open his eyes at all while he has hold of his hands. He keeps whimpering and holding his breath, expecting to get hit from him. Ever so slowly he opens his eyes once he moves his hands down then blinks. "You... Bad...hurt... Bad..." He finally sucks in a gasp of air and hugs himself. He doesn't know how to handle of this. That he's apologizing to him. That he really had a Master before too. None of this makes much sense to him. "I... I... I don't... I..." He shuts his eyes again and shakes his head, he was still shaking but it wasn't nearly as bad as before. And his breathing has gone down now that he's thinking of what Logan's saying. "Sorry...? Sorry... Sorry... Wake up bad... Sorry." He mumbled.

“It’s okay. I’m sorry for startling you. I was going to wake up from a nightmare soon most likely so you kinda saved me from another nightmare. Thank you.” Logan says softly.

"You...were? I uh... Um... I... Huh?" He definitely seemed confused at the thanks, he's never been...thanked before. He stares at him as if he's crazy, blinking and not saying anything else. He glances over at Roman to make sure he wasn't crazy and no... He's nodding along to what he's saying. Then he glanced back at Logan, he didn't know how to respond to that at all. Though, he guessed it's good that he...sorta saved him from another nightmare...he suppose?

Logan smiles softly at Dee.

"I... I... M' sorry? I uh... I'm... Why are...you saying sorry...to me? I'm... I'm confused... I'm... Why... I don't... Understand?" He stuttered, sounding very confused and lost. "Why... How... You had a Master... You..." He swallowed thickly, raising up his hands again but to just wipe away the tears some more so he could see. "Go...back to bed... Master... Sorry..." He knows he won't be able to get any more sleep for the rest of the night now though. Once he has a nightmare he normally can't fall asleep again, no matter how hard he tries.

Logan is extremely worried. “I want to make sure you are as okay as you can be currently....”

You know, I hoped that the link would be a rickroll. For possibly the first time in my life, I was actively begging the universe to rickroll me instead of providing me with what the link was actually promising.

Why, Gaud? Why?

it’s incredible to me how after all this time u people still ask me why i do things. i do them to make you uncomfortable. obviously.

A lone omega runs down an alleyway, he didn't have a single idea where he was going or where he even was. His only thought was to run. He only wore a thong and a collar with a leash that was dragging behind him, clearly a sign that he was a slave to some alpha. His hands were tied and he had a muzzle strapped to his mouth. And was covered in scars from head to toe, half of his body being burned by flames. And he was in heat, heavily in heat.

Logan, a beta, had been walking to a bookstore when he smelt the lone omega in heat and could tell something was wrong. Logan quickly figured out where the scent was coming from and ran into the alleyway to help.

The smell of fear was coming off in waves from this one omega, plus the smell of heat. It was strong enough to attract anybody nearby really. But he didn't know that. He was too terrified to even think properly. The only thoughts going through his mind was to run away. Run before his masters catch him. When he saw somebody running towards him he froze, trying to step back only to fall on the pavement. He whimpered and whined, sobbing loudly and pleading. His arms and hands over his face to protect himself and his entire body trembling and violently shaking. He wasn't even sure if he was breathing or not, judging by how badly his chest was caving in it definitely didn't feel like he was. He could smell the distant scent that came from him but he couldn't concentrate long enough to figure out that he was a beta.

Logan rushed to his side. “Hey, calm down. I’m not going to hurt you. Can you tell me what is going on?”

He gave a yelp of surprise when he rushed over to him, he sobbed shutting his eyes in fear. Then he shook his head, tears streaming down his eyes and he looked so scared and terrified. Just then he heard what sounded like footsteps coming down the other side of the alleyway and he gave a muffled scream, he could recongize that scent anywhere. He was frozen in fear though, his eyes even wider. He's going to die... He's going to die... They're gonna kill him. It's all over.

Logan gets the sense that whoever was making those footsteps isn’t good. “I’m going to pick you up, sorry if it hurts.” Logan says before picking the omega up, using adrenaline he starts to run out of the alleyway.

He makes a tiny noise before he's suddenly picked up. He didn't even hear what Logan had just said so when he's suddenly picked up he nearly jumped so badly he just about fell from his arms. Luckily he didn't and he was in shock to find him running away. What...is he doing?! He looked behind to see that luckily they got out of there just in time before the alphas had gotten to where they just were. His gaze landed on Logan and he whimpered behind the muzzle, holding his hands close to his chest. He was still scared, this beta could be taking him to a group of alphas for all he knows.

Logan keeps running, heading back quickly to his apartment. He hopes that his memory of one his roommate who happens to be an alpha saying he was heading out is correct. As much as he trusts him he thinks the omega isn’t going to be comfortable with an alpha nearby currently.

The omega was crying the entire way, scared of what was to happen and become of him. What if Master's follow him? What if he's heading to New Master's? What if he's going to hurt him himself? There's so many what ifs and he's so terrified right now. He didn't stop crying even when Logan got into the apartment and had closed the door. By then his hands were raised to protect himself while he was crying. His cheeks covered in tears and his eyes red and puffy.

Logan quickly locks the door before placing him on the couch gently. Logan carefully removes the muzzle, speaking softly to him. “Hey, you’re safe. I promise that no one is going to hurt you. I’m trying to help you.

He gave a cry when he was placed on the couch before stopping and looking down, not harmful? Not harmful. Okay. Then he flinched and whimpered, crying out when he moved to touch him. Only to realize he's taking off the muzzle. There were obvious signs that it's been on his mouth for a very long time, his peeling and blistering skin is anything to go by. When he opened his mouth the other could see that his tongue is completely missing. He hiccuped and curled up against the couch, shaking his head. "M-Master... Master... Master... He... You... I... I can't... No... I..." He stuttered over himself, his breathing quick. He was obviously too scared to even make much sense. The thong basically did nothing and he was making a small mess on the couch by his slick.

Logan quickly grabs some of his own spare clothes. “I need you to try to calm down a bit. I have some spare clothes you can borrow.” Logan is worried about this omega. From a past relationship he knew a small bit about how the omega is most likely feeling right now.

"N-No... No... Need... Need Master's...permission... I can't... Get in trouble... Trouble bad.... Trouble... I... I can't get... No.... No clothes..." He frantically shakes his head, looking at the clothes as if it'll burn him, which might not be far from the truth judging by how many scars he has. He tries to take deep breaths in, but it was so hard when his panicked thoughts are going so crazy right now. "I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." He whispered, shaking. "Gonna... Gonna...sell me? Take...to Master's or... Or... I..."

“It’s okay. I’m got going to any of that. I’m to call an ambulance and police, they are trained for situations like this and it’s going to help much better than I can on my own.”

"I... But... What.... They'll..." He takes another shaky breath to try and concentrate on talking. "Master's... Master's...in... Master's are in...work for police... Alphas work...for police... Black uniforms... Black uniforms with handcuffs... I think that's police... Will get me... They will get me." He says shakily, trying to calm down the best he could. Luckily it was getting easier and easier as he looked around the place and as time went by, he thought if he was gonna sell him he would be calling around already.

Logan is very worried by this. “Okay, let me think for a second.” Logan begins to think about what he should do, assessing every reasonable option.

He shakily nods, "A-Are you... Are you...my Master now...?" He asked hesitantly, then shut up so he could think. He was quiet, staring at him then everything around them taking the place in. He didn't understand what most of these things do, in all honesty... Even though he was curious he stayed perfectly still, not wanting to move unless told to. He didn't want to test the patience of this beta.

"Hello?" A voice entered the room, the front door being opened and the sound of keys being jangled could be heard.

Logan immediately chokes on his own tongue when he says that. “N-No. uh, um.” Logan is seriously caught off guard by that question.

"I-I... Huh...? But you...saved me...? You own...me now? I'm... I'm confused?" He stared at him, not understanding why he denied it. Either he is his new master or...he's being sold off... But he said no to being sold off so he's...really confused right now. Just as he was starting to finally calm down the door had opened and he jumped up. And his eyes instantly widened in fear when he smelt the alpha smell.

"Lo? You're back already too? Turns out that theater place was a ditch, such a shame too." Roman walked over to the living room and he froze at the scene before him. He was about ready to take off his bag when he spotted the nearly naked man on their couch. And he was definitely in heat. His nose winkled and he glanced at Logan. "Uh... Lo... Care to explain why a nearly naked omega that in heavy heat is currently in our apartment? Did you order a prostitute or something?"

“On my way to the bookstore I found this omega running from someone who he calls ‘Master’ who is most likely someone who has abused him and might kill him. So, no I have not ordered a prostitute.”

"Ah... Well, that's a shame. Cause my hormones are going bonkers right now. He..." Roman took a moment to process everything he just said. He glanced back at Logan, "Is it like... with you?" He asked, knowing about Logan's past. He was the one who helped him break from his alphas control after all.

The omega was dead quiet, he stared at Roman in pure horror. Is this who he's going to give him too?! He couldn't even ask any questions, all that came out was little peeps and hiccups.

“Yes, it is like that.” Logan can sense that the omega is more than terrified so he turns. “He’s not going to hurt you. I’m not selling you or letting you get hurt. He is a great friend of mine, I know him well and he is isn’t going to take advantage of you, I promise.

"Oh... Gotcha..." Roman takes a deep breath, trying to remember what he did with logan back then. Be a rock and ground him. Comfort him... Okay. Very slowly he kneeled down so he wasn't towering over the quivering omega. And he forced himself to push back his instincts on breeding this Omega. He clearly doesn't need that. And very slowly he scoots a bit forward so he was kneeling before the omega. And he let out calming scents. "I promise i won't ever hurt you, alright? I promise on my life. Can you take a breath for me? Focus on my voice and my scent. Sh... Sh... Breathe..."

The omega didn't know what was happening. But when Logan turned to him he looked over. Only to swallow and let out a few more peeps, but he seemed a bit calmer at that. Not take advantage... He jumped when Roman moved, only to blink when he kneeled down to the ground. He didn't know how to even respond to this. He stared at Roman then at Logan, being completely baffled and confused. "W-What...? But I...need a Master.... Need... I can't... Please? Can I have a Master? Please? I can't... I don't know...what to do with myself... Please..." He begged to them, clearly conditioned to needing a Master for everything.

Logan sighs softly, knowing this mindset more than he would like to. “You don’t need a Master, I promise. What they have done to you is wrong and what they have told you about needing a Master is false.” Logan speaks calmly and softly. Letting out calming scents like Roman but they are definitely not as strong as Roman’s due to some events from his past.

"I... I... N-No... I... I need..." He stuttered, shaking his head with tears in his eyes. He sounded devasted, like somebody told him his dog just died. He put his head in his hands and sobbed loudly once more, crying as if he lost something precious to him. "I... No... Not wrong... Not bad... No... They weren't... N-No... Please... Please..." He sobbed, "I need... A master.... Please!!" He begged, he looked around and noticed the wall behind him. He stood up and started slamming his head against the wall with enough force to make the wall shake. "I'm bad! Bad! Bad!!"

"I'll be your Master!" Roman blurted out, he didn't want to, obviously, but he didn't know how else to calm him down.

Logan quickly puts his arm in between him and the wall. “Calm down. You aren’t bad. If you need a Master, I will be your Master.” Logan says trying to keep his voice steady and calm.

"Are you sure, Logan? He... He's worse off then you were... And..." Roman said nervously, whispering to him. He isn't certain about Logan taking care of him, it might trigger some memories...

He immediately stops when he puts an arm between him. Then freezes when they both shouted that they were gonna be his master's. He looked back and stared between them. Then he took a shaky breath and nods, he stands perfectly still as some blood trickle down his head. "Okay... Master's... I'm... I'm sorry... I'm very sorry..." He sat back down, his head down and he immediately calmed down.

“I... I am not completely sure...” Logan whispers back, admitting he isn’t completely comfortable with taking care of him as he already close to an ‘episode’. Logan quickly gets a first aid kit before starting to treat the wounds on the omega the best he can.

"Okay, let me take care of him. He'll listen to me more anyways since I'm an alpha. He might question later why he's listening to a beta. It's alright." Roman whispers to him, then moves out of his way. Only to help him care for the wound on the omegas head. "Or do you think we should let him choose? I... I don't really know. You gravitated towards me but that might just be cause I kept getting in your way back then..."

He sat perfectly still while they tended to his wound, not even moving a bit.

“I don’t really know either. I think we should let him choose so he can get used to choosing for himself easier?...” Logan whispers as he and Roman care for the wound.

"Yeah, thats a good idea. It'll be a nice first step to getting him used to that. Jesus, can he take one of your heat suppressors first? It is so hard trying to concentrate with that heat smell." He says with a low growl in his voice, but he shakes his head and groans.

Logan nods, quickly getting one as he notes that he’s running low on them before returning and crouching in front of the omega. “Hey, I need you to take this. It doesn’t hurt, I promise.”

Roman scoots a bit back once he rushes off to compose himself. He knows it'll take about twenty minutes for it to really take effect but at least he'll have taken it.

He slowly looks up once he was addressed and he looks down at the pill. He debates on whether he should take it or not. Before swallowing his fear and gets the pill, quickly swallowing it dry. He is scared of taking it of course, since his master's did gave them drugs a lot, but he didn't want to anger any of them either.

“They aren’t harmful, they help a lot in heat. They also help my friend, Roman, keep control of himself and his instincts better.” Logan says trying to reassure him that he is safe.

"Okay, Master... Thank you. I'm sorry I hurt other Master from my heat... Why isn't he breeding me...? Or you?" He asked, finally looking up at both of them. Then he bites his lip, "Sorry for asking questions... Am I allowed to ask questions, Master's?"

Roman shivered at how dull his voice sounded. Yep... Exactly like how Logan sounded... "Hey, little omega." He scoots closer to him, keeping his hands down onto the rug. "We have a question for you. And yes, you may ask as many questions as your heart wants. You wont get in trouble by it. No question is dumb. And no breeding, we don't do breeding here. Unless you want it." He takes a breath, "Would you want me as your master or Logan here? You get to choose who you want to follow, is that alright?"

“It is not your fault.” Logan shivers with Roman, remembering when he was like this. Logan nods, agreeing with Roman and looking in between the omega and Roman slowly.

He was silent, looking between both of them. He...gets to choose? That's...really strange. Sometimes he does have two or three Master's at a time. So this is strange. And he is scared at picking the wrong one and the other being angry at him. As he debates this he bites his lip nervously hugging himself. Very slowly he points at Logan, he trusted him more then Roman right now. Especially since he's a beta. Then he quickly looked at Roman, only to flinch and look away.

"Hey, hey, that's good. Thank you for choosing and answering us. Here," He gets up to go to the kitchen, and he comes back with half a cookie. "A treat for being so good for us so far." He gives him the cookie and luckily he takes it, but he glances at Logan. "You're gonna be up for this?"

Logan nods hesitantly. “Y-Yes.”

Roman obviously hears his stutter and he smiles softly, "Come here." He stands up and backs away so the omega won't think he's towering over him or anything. And he hugs Logan, "You can do this, okay? I know you can. You've come so so far. If it ever gets too much you can tell him to stay in your room and come to mine, okay? Or tell him to listen and follow me. I won't mind it at all." He whispers to his ear.

He glances at the cookie and sniffs it hesitantly, he's never seen this before... Strange... It doesn't smell bad or rotten so that's good... He slowly takes a nibble from the cookie but once he tastes the flavor his eyes widened. He shovels the entire thing in his mouth and happily chews it, loving the taste. "Thank you!" He says around his mouthful.

Logan hugs back, nodding softly.

Roman gives a gentle squeeze, "So... We should probably take this guy to the hospital first. He looks pretty...thin and sickly... He might have to stay overnight just by the looks of him... You get him in the car and I pack a bag?" He asked, thinking that was probably the best course of action.

Logan nods, turning to help the omega. “We’re going to get you to a hospital, okay?”

"Hos...pital....? What's that, Master?" He asked, taking his hand a bit shakily to stand up. He got dizzy when he stood up though and had to grip on the couch to keep steady and not fall. Taking a few shaky breaths he tried to stop the room from spinning.

Roman rushed into his room to grab his back and start packing.

Logan helps him stand shifting him so he is supporting the omega. “It’s a place where doctors work and they help heal sick and injuried people. They are good.”

He whimpered when he moved him, thinking he was going to toss him to the ground and force him to move. But instead he blinked and was shocked to see him actually supporting him. Uh... "O-Oh... No... No previous... Master's...? No...cops?" He asked shakily, his head hurting the more he moved. But he forced himself to keep going for Logan.

Logan nods, quickly picking him up carefully and softly. “None of that, I promise.” Logan speaks softly.

"O-Okay... Thank you, Master." He squeaked and tried to hold in a small scream when he picked him up. But he took a shaky breath to calm down. "I... You're...a better Master already... I... I like you more..." He whispered under his breath as he held on to him, blinking at the sunlight once they got outside and hissing softly. "M-Master... Other Master isn't mad that I choose you, right? You're not mad either?"

“Neither of us are mad, I promise.” Logan says as he places the omega in the car.

"O-Okay... Okay... Thank you, Master. I'm sorry for punishing myself. I'm very sorry." He says, sitting down in the car very stock still. He wanted to be good for his new master after all.

Roman came jogging over with a bag, "Alright, I got snacks and a change of clothes for all of us. Here's I assume the clothes you tried to give him? It was laying on the couch so..." He gave Logan the clothes, "Then toothbrush, toothpaste, uh... I don't think we need anything else... I'll come back tomorrow if he does need to stay."

Logan nods, taking the clothes. “Okay, good. thank you, Roman”

"Of course, man, of course." Roman gives him a quick hug before going over to place the bag in the truck. "I'll drive!" He says as he hops into the drivers seat and started up the car to turn on the heat as it was a bit chilly outside.

The omega watched them curiously, not having an idea what is going on. As the car started he jumped in surprise before resting back down, shifting side to side a bit nervously.

Logan sits next to the omega just in case he needs help. “You’re safe. Nothing is going to hurt you now.” Logan reassures the omega softly.

He glanced over at him once he sat next to him, blinking as to why he did that. And he stared at him at his reassuring words, just staring for several moments. Before giving a nod, "O-Okay... I uh... Okay..." He mumbles, and he didn't sound like he was convinced at all. But he agrees anyways.

"We'll both protect you, alright? Trust me. Your part of our pack now, so you don't have to worry about a thing. Just focus on getting better and we'll do the rest." Roman said as he started pulling out then driving along.

Logan nods. “Yes, Roman is correct.”

He is silent, then glances away. "A...pack?" His voice trembles and he swallows thickly. "I... No... No dark room? I... I don't....want to go back... to dark room... I'm... I'm sorry... I'll be good, I promise." He sounded on the verge of tears and he hiccuped, drawing his hands shakily around himself in a hug.

“No dark room, we promise. You don’t have to apologize.” Logan reassures softly, extremely concerned about the omega.

"Yes, Logan is right. No dark room. We'll make sure you don't ever go back there. We'll keep your room lit at all times. It's okay, it's okay, you've been so good for both of us. We're really happy at how good you've been." Roman replied back, keeping his voice soft. But he glances at Logan from the rear view mirror with concern. And he could tell that Logan feels exactly the same.

"R-Really? Oh... Okay... Thank you... Master's. Thank you." He sounded very relieved, incredibly relieved actually. "You're...good Master's... Thank you." He really did sound greatful, these Master's were already a lot better then his previous ones. He takes a shaky breath and pulls up his knees to his chest, trying to be small as possible.

Logan is extremely concerned for the omega.

Roman is silent for a bit, sharing Logan's exact worried thoughts. This one...might be worse then Logan's case... And he isn't sure if they can even help him. But he wants to try, he really wants to try. "So... Do you have a name? We can't keep calling you 'omega' or any of that forever."

He snapped out of his thoughts to look ahead at Roman. And he shook his head. "No, Master. I don't. I'm whatever a master wants to call me. Some name me slut... Others name me whore. Would you want to name me one of those?"

Logan’s concern quickly turns to worry. “No...”

"What?!" Roman sounded appalled, and concerned. Mixed with anger and disgust as well. "No! No... No, we are not calling you any of those names. Hell no. What about... Hm... What do you think, lo? You are his master after all."

He flinched when they all said no to that. Guess that's...a bad thing? He swallowed thickly and glanced to logan, waiting for his answer but remaining quiet this time.

“Hm.. Dee maybe?” Logan is extremely worried and nervous currently and that is one of the only names he can think of.

"Dee's a good name! What do you think about that name? We could change it if you don't like it." Roman says, honestly he's as worried if not more then Logan right now. But he's trying to lift up the mood the best he could. Which probably isn't very good but hey, he's trying.

"it's... It's okay... Thank you, Master. My name is dee now, thank you." He says, bowing his head. Really any name Logan chose he would've said it was good to. But this name he rather quite...liked. It had a nice ring to it, he thought.

Logan smiles softly, mentally thanking Roman for trying to lift the room.

Roman could tell that he was thanking him quietly, and he smiled at that. He drove into the parking spot at the hospital and sighed as he stopped the car and unbuckled. "Alright, you carry Dee in lo and uh... I guess I can sign the papers? If you want? And you go with Dee to the back while they uh...do whatever they need to do?" He asked, figuring out the plan.

Dee was quiet and he looked out the window, marveling at just how big the building was. It was way bigger then the warehouse, or well, what he thinks the warehouse looked like from the outside.

Logan nods, getting out of the car and going to Dee’s side.

Dee looks up when he gets out of the car, and he slowly attempts to open his door. Once he did he stood up, but he must've stood up way too quickly cause everything spun around suddenly. He grew pale before collasping. Luckily he fell right on Logan and he had his eyes shut, his breathing was uneven and he took shaky breaths in.

Roman practically jumped out of the car when he saw Dee collasping. "Logan, go in now! I'll sign the papers!" He quickly got in the car to grab his keys, rushing around.

Logan nods, scooping Dee up and rushing into the hospital.

Dee whimpered at the sudden movement, gripping onto him hard like he was afraid of falling. But he also hid his head in his chest, the rush of light hurting his eyelids. He could hear voices but it sounded like it was coming from underwater.

Luckily, nurses saw them and rushed over. A few nurses were right behind and guestered Logan over to one of their back rooms. They were speaking to each other while they told Logan to set him on the bed in the room. "We'll take it from here. Can you wait in the waiting room for us, please?"

Logan goes in the room and places him on the bed. “I-I uh okay.” Logan stammers before hesitatingly leaving the room and going back to the waiting room, extremely worried and nervous.

Dee doesn't know what's going on, as he felt hands and what he thinks is needles on his arm. "Ma... Master...?" He shakily whispers under his breath and manages to open his eyes. Only to see that Logan has left and he sighed, his head resting on the pillow once more.

Roman is filling out the paperwork when he looks up. "What they say?" He asked, holding up his wrist for Logan to scent if he needed it. He knows that calms him down most of the time, but he isn't sure about right now.

“That they were going to take over now.” Logan says as he softly holds Roman wrist, smelling his scent which calms a part of Logan but he is still nervous and worried.

"It's gonna be alright, Lo. They'll fix him. I promise you that they'll fix him. Everything will be alright, okay? Sh..." Roman released calming and reassuring scents for him and rubbed his back. He even started nuzzling his cheek with his own. "They'll fix him, and we will go home and really get to know him. Dee is a great name for him by the way. It's a fantastic name." He cooed, trying to calm him down the best he could.

Logan smiles softly as the calming and reassuring scents work, he nuzzles his cheek back gently.

Roman smiles back, glad that the scents were working in calming him down. He nuzzles his cheek back gently and sent more scents his way. And he sighed softly, honestly very worried and concerned himself. But he tries to hide it for Logan's sake.

About a half hour later a nurse comes out and walks over to Logan. "You're the one with the scarred omega right?"

Logan nods, becoming extremely worried. “Yes, is he okay?”

Roman is silent, waiting and squeezing Logan's hand.

"He is stable for now. We think he'll be okay in the long run, yes. He's going to need lots of treatment though. His blood cell count was...we haven't ever seen it as low as his was. We had to do a blood transfusion, mulitiple IVs, an oxygen tank since he was having troubles breathing on his own. He is... He's pretty sick."

Logan nods, still extremely worried but is relieved to here that they think he will be okay in the long run at least and Roman’s presence alone is helping him stay calm. “Ah...” Logan manages to say. Due to the abuse he went through from that alpha, Logan is quite awkward when it comes to social things and is extremely quiet often only answering with one or two words. It took a while for him to properly talk and open up to Roman, Roman being one of few people Logan can properly talk without only using one or two words.

Roman is extremely relieved, worried but relieved. As long as they think he'll be fine in the long run that's good enough for him. That means that he has a good enough chance to survive. He squeezes Logan's hand reassuringly when he hears the single word, knowing exactly what he wants to say. He knows that Logan can't say more then one word in front of strangers, so he often steps in and talks for him. And he knows what he wants to say just from his expression and his tone of that single word. "We are very grateful. Thank you so so much. We are both just... Thank you. Is there any chance we can see him?"

"Yes, you may. Right this way." She points down the hallway and smiles, "No need to thank me. I'm just doing my job." She smiles and opens up a door.

Logan smiles softly at Roman, silently thanking him. When she opens the door, Logan goes in the room quickly with extreme worry all over his face.

Roman smiles back, squeezing his hand yet again to silently say that he doesn't have to thank him. Then he followed them, he stays a bit behind Logan making sure he gets to Dee first.

There are quite a lot of wires going into both of his arms, including the poles beside him. And loud beeping was coming from the heart monitor. Dee looked paler then before, his sticky hair plastered to his forehead. And a mask was over his mouth and nose. He definitely didn't look good right now at all, he looked close to death with how pale he is. He appeared to be asleep, his eyes closed and was resting luckily.

Logan lets out a breath he didn’t know he was holding when he sees Dee but worry still runs his mind currently.

Roman swallows at the sight of Dee. That...didn't look very good... He looked back at the nurse to see that she's already gone, huh, well... Then he glanced at Logan to see his transfixed stare at Dee. "Hey, hey, he's going to be okay. Sh... I know it's a lot. But he's going to be fine." He hugs Logan tightly and rubs his back. Just then he heard a groan come from the omega and he looks over, watching Dee slowly open his eyes and look around.

Logan hugs back, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath in. Logan then looks immediately at Dee when he heard the groan. “H-How are you feeling, Dee?”

Roman looks over as well, holding in his breath. He draws up a chair besides his bed for Logan and himself. Knowing Logan probably won't want to leave his side for a while, knowing him at least.

Dee stared at them, as if he has to really concentrate as to who they are. He was silent for several moments before he swallowed and finally spoke. "T-Tired... Not.... Not good..." He groaned out, Winching a bit. "Hurts..? Hurts... Master...didn't leave me?" He sounded a bit heartbroken, like he actually thought that Logan was going to leave him here and won't come back.

Logan sits down, once again silently thanking Roman. When Dee speaks Logan feels guilty for leaving the room and making Dee think he was going to abandon him. “N-No, I would never. I will n-never. I promise.”

Ran shakes his head without saying anything, as if silently saying don't mention it. He focuses on Dee and shakes his head, "No... No, we won't leave you. We won't ever leave you. Okay?"

Dee blinked between them and he could see some emotion in Logan's eyes. He couldn't place what it was though... He cleared his throat a bit then sucked in a breath. "Really...? Oh... Okay... I'm sorry, Master... Sorry... I thought that... Won't think that again..." He silently stared at the wall for a moment before blinking and coming to. "What's... this?" He points weakly at the mask, it wasn't hurting and he could obviously still talk, but he didn't know what it was for.

“I-It’s a mask that helps you b-breathe.” Logan explains, gripping Roman’s hand gently to remind himself that Roman is here which calms him.

Roman grips his hand back, gently rubbing his thumb along logans hand. He scoots his chair closer and hugs Logan from the side, still holding his hand. He released calming scents again, wanting Logan to know that he's here and not going to leave him.

"Oh... Oh... Okay... Feels funny... Mhm..." He whispers, his voice slurring together. "Mhm... No... No bad men? Bad...alphas... You better Master... Like you... Don't make me eat pups like old Master's... Pups don't taste very good..." He was obviously high off of some drug. But it was making him calm, maybe a bit too calm.

Logan smiles softly at the scents, it working though when Dee says this some bad memories attack his mind but he manages to stay composed and not curl up in a ball. His alpha never made him eat his pups luckily though he did often kill them in front of Logan or forced Logan to kill them. “N-No bad men a-are here... I-I won’t, I-I promise with all my heart.”

Roman is dead silent at what Dee says. He doesn't even know what to say back to that. But he does feel Logan tighten up so he moves his free hand up to massage his scalp. "There is none of that here, we promise. None of that will happen ever again. Now...try to relax okay? Get some sleep. We'll be here when you wake up, little one. Sh..." Roman goes over to pull the blanket over him some more and sighs softly, going right back to Logan side.

Dee glances between both of them. "Okay... Okay... Uh... Is... Is Master okay?" Even in his daze state he noticed his stuttering and little bit of shakingness. Then he blinks at Roman and nods, "Okay... I'll get some sleep...for you Master... Want to be good...for you... Good slave... Mhm... Good slut..." He yawns, then smiles his eyes dropping closed.

Logan has started to space out remembering every pup, what he wanted to name them, and how they died, trembling and leaning into Roman’s warmth. Logan flinches for second when Roman touches his scrap but when he smells Roman’s scent a half second later he stops and leans into Roman’s hand.

Roman could feel him trembling and could feel his flinch, he removes his hand only to see him leaning into it. So he continued massaging his scalp, and he hugs him close and protectively. "Master is alright, he's okay. It's just been a long day for him. You aren't a slave or a slut. You are Dee. And your the best omega anybody could ask for. Now sh... Sh... Go to sleep." He watches Dee slowly fall asleep. Then he digs in his pockets for his earpods that he always carries with him just in case. He places them in Logan's ears then brings out his phone as well. He scrolls through his music to find the playlist he had downloaded just for when Logan gets his flashbacks. He starts playing it then he gently rocked him side to side, humming softly and releasing his calming scents some more. "You're not there, Logan. You're not there. Sh... Focus on the music. Focus on me." He whispered calmly to him.

Logan’s trembling soon stops after Roman starts playing music and releasing his calming scents. Logan relaxes, slowly hugging Roman gently and tired as flashbacks can be tiring and he didn’t get much sleep last night.

Roman smiles when he could feel his trembling slowly coming to a stop. That's great. That's...really really great. And he smiles even more at feeling him relaxing under his hands. Thank God he downloaded that playlist, it has been a lifesaver more then once. He knew he'd be tired right after this so he looks around the room. And luckily there were a small couch at the far end of the wall. Gently he scoops up Logan in his arms and brings him over to the couch, laying Logan on his chest and grabbing a blanket and pillow from where he was. He laid the blanket on them and puts the pillow behind his head. He places a gentle kiss on Logan's forehead then rubs his back. "Go to sleep, Lo. I'll be here. I won't leave you." He whispers to him, yawning himself. It's been a tiring few hours.

“G-Goodnight, Ro.” Logan yawns softly before falling asleep and gently snuggling Roman in his sleep.

"Goodnight, Lo." He whispers back, and he stays awake for a bit longer. Just to make sure that Logan is asleep and Dee is too. The heart monitor is weirdly calming but at the same time stressful. But he sighs and lays down some more, having his arms gently protective around Logan. And he falls asleep snuggling Logan back and he sleeps peacefully.

Logan sleeps peacefully for several hours until a nightmare attacked his first peaceful sleep in around a month causing him to shift slightly and whimper.

Roman was still sound asleep, but when he heard that whimper subconsciously he held him tighter and released more calming scents. "Mhm... No... Bad...sound... Mhm... Not that... Not..." He mumbled in his sleep then turned his head, he rolled over and held Logan almost like a stuffed animal close to his chest.

Logan relaxes, the nightmare stopping. Logan snuggles closer to Roman chest in his sleep.

Roman snuggled him, wrapping his arms and legs around him in his sleep. He immediately went back to sleep once Logan snuggled up to him, even subconsciously knowing that he's fine now.

Just as they were about to go back to sleep Dee's heart monitor started beeping more intensely. And the sounds of the bed rocking back and forth can be heard. Followed by what sounded like crying and mumbling incoherent words.

Logan immediately wakes up, jumping in surprise and falls off the couch before looking at Dee, panicking.

Dee is kicking out at something, his head shaking back and forth and sobbing. Though he was clearly asleep, just having a nightmare by the looks of things. He was doing that for a moment before he suddenly screams at the top of his lungs and jump up, his eyes open with a panic and his breathing is heavy. He brings up his knees to his chest and sobs quietly into his knees.

Roman was starting to wake up when he heard the loud thuds, but at the loud scream he was instantly awake. He snapped awake and nearly fell ontop of logan. But he manages to catch himself and look around to where the screaming came from. Only to see it was Dee who was crying and shaking. He frowns and leans over to Logan to take out the earpods, then he slowly walked over to Dee. "Hey... Hey, it's okay... It's alright. Sh..." He cooed. But Dee only jumped away from him, and looked at him with pure terror.

Logan gets up from the floor slowly and carefully approaches Dee slowly. “Hey.. Dee... it’s okay... you’re safe...”

Roman slowly backs away then, he knows if he keeps going towards him that would only make him panic more.

Dee whips over when he hears Logan and sucks in a breath. His eyes are unfocused for a bit and he just stares at Logan. Until he shakes his head to clear it out. Slowly he registers what he's saying and he hiccups. "M-Master...?" He managed to say, his body shaking. "I... I... N-No... Not... Mhm..." He whispers, shaking his head and curling back into a ball.

“Did you have a nightmare, Dee?” Logan says softly, slowly moving closer to Dee.

"Y-Yes... M-Master..." He hiccuped, hiding his face in his knees the best he could. Though the tugging on the wires were making it hard to do. But he ignored it and kept tugging, sobbing quietly. He seemed to be forcing himself to calm down, probably from his nails digging into his legs so hard that it's causing it to bleed. But it's making himself snap back to reality, which is what he wanted. "Sorry... Sorry... Stupid... M' stupid... I'll... Go back to sleep now... Very.. very... Very sorry...to wake you up.. very... I..." He sucks in a harsh breath then forced himself to lay back down.

“Hey, it’s okay... I’m sorry you had a nightmare... You aren’t stupid.. it’s not your fault, Dee...” Logan speaks softly.

Dee hesitantly glanced at him, still tears pouring down his cheeks but he shakes his head. He immediately wipes it all away and digs his nails into his face to keep from crying some more. "I... Not... Not okay... Not... I.... Why...aren't you... whipping me... Master? I don't.. I... I... Stupid... Stupid...slut... Not..." He takes a shaky breath, "Every night...have nightmares... It's fine... It's... It's okay..."

“You aren’t a s-slut. You are Dee and you are amazing. I’m sorry you have nightmares every night.... I do too.” Logan is extremely worried about Dee.

Dee immediately shook his head, his name now is Dee of course. But he isn't amazing. He is anything but. He's a slut, that's what he is... Though at his whisper he glanced up at him, few bits of blood coming from his cheeks. "Master...has nightmares... N-Not... Not possible... Not... Lying... Lying... Trick... Master's trick... Lie... Master's lie..." He shook his head again and brought up the blanket over his head. "Lie..." He whispered, hiding himself in a tight ball.

Roman glanced over at Logan and bit his lip nervously. Logan wasn't like this at all back when he saved him. Sure, he did hide away when he had nightmares but... He didn't hurt himself or act like this. He wasn't sure what to do.

Logan doesn’t know what to do too. “I can promise you that I am not lying...” Worry and Concern overwhelming Logan as he speaks softly.

Dee could hear the worry in his voice, and it's very clear now. He at first didn't even know what that emotion was. Until he had to realize it sounded a lot like the others when they're being taken away by the alphas. Worry... And fear of course. He swallows and slowly peeks out to look at him. "Master's...don't...get nightmares... They... They give it..." He hiccuped, "You... I... I'm... I'm confused..." He admitted slowly as it was clear that his hands were trembling against his cheeks.

“Not all Masters are like that... I-I used to have a M-Master like that.... B-But now I-I’m free.” Logan says as he slowly ends up next to Dee and carefully and slowly tries to lower Dee’s hands from his face.

"You.... You... You...did?" He had to repeat himself as he tried to focus on his words rather then his shaking and ever growing panic in his mind. "How... You... I... Huh?" He asked, completely confused as to how he had a Master before too. But he's a Master... How does that...make sense... When he moves towards his hands he whimpered and shut his eyes, flinching violently from his hands. Only to open his eyes and look at him, his hands moving with his movements.

Logan slowly and gently moves his hands down away from his face. “I’m sorry for scaring you, I don’t want you to hurt yourself... Yes, I did. I’m sorry you had to go through all that.”

Dee doesn't open his eyes at all while he has hold of his hands. He keeps whimpering and holding his breath, expecting to get hit from him. Ever so slowly he opens his eyes once he moves his hands down then blinks. "You... Bad...hurt... Bad..." He finally sucks in a gasp of air and hugs himself. He doesn't know how to handle of this. That he's apologizing to him. That he really had a Master before too. None of this makes much sense to him. "I... I... I don't... I..." He shuts his eyes again and shakes his head, he was still shaking but it wasn't nearly as bad as before. And his breathing has gone down now that he's thinking of what Logan's saying. "Sorry...? Sorry... Sorry... Wake up bad... Sorry." He mumbled.

“It’s okay. I’m sorry for startling you. I was going to wake up from a nightmare soon most likely so you kinda saved me from another nightmare. Thank you.” Logan says softly.

"You...were? I uh... Um... I... Huh?" He definitely seemed confused at the thanks, he's never been...thanked before. He stares at him as if he's crazy, blinking and not saying anything else. He glances over at Roman to make sure he wasn't crazy and no... He's nodding along to what he's saying. Then he glanced back at Logan, he didn't know how to respond to that at all. Though, he guessed it's good that he...sorta saved him from another nightmare...he suppose?

Logan smiles softly at Dee.

A lone omega runs down an alleyway, he didn't have a single idea where he was going or where he even was. His only thought was to run. He only wore a thong and a collar with a leash that was dragging behind him, clearly a sign that he was a slave to some alpha. His hands were tied and he had a muzzle strapped to his mouth. And was covered in scars from head to toe, half of his body being burned by flames. And he was in heat, heavily in heat.

Logan, a beta, had been walking to a bookstore when he smelt the lone omega in heat and could tell something was wrong. Logan quickly figured out where the scent was coming from and ran into the alleyway to help.

The smell of fear was coming off in waves from this one omega, plus the smell of heat. It was strong enough to attract anybody nearby really. But he didn't know that. He was too terrified to even think properly. The only thoughts going through his mind was to run away. Run before his masters catch him. When he saw somebody running towards him he froze, trying to step back only to fall on the pavement. He whimpered and whined, sobbing loudly and pleading. His arms and hands over his face to protect himself and his entire body trembling and violently shaking. He wasn't even sure if he was breathing or not, judging by how badly his chest was caving in it definitely didn't feel like he was. He could smell the distant scent that came from him but he couldn't concentrate long enough to figure out that he was a beta.

Logan rushed to his side. “Hey, calm down. I’m not going to hurt you. Can you tell me what is going on?”

He gave a yelp of surprise when he rushed over to him, he sobbed shutting his eyes in fear. Then he shook his head, tears streaming down his eyes and he looked so scared and terrified. Just then he heard what sounded like footsteps coming down the other side of the alleyway and he gave a muffled scream, he could recongize that scent anywhere. He was frozen in fear though, his eyes even wider. He's going to die... He's going to die... They're gonna kill him. It's all over.

Logan gets the sense that whoever was making those footsteps isn’t good. “I’m going to pick you up, sorry if it hurts.” Logan says before picking the omega up, using adrenaline he starts to run out of the alleyway.

He makes a tiny noise before he's suddenly picked up. He didn't even hear what Logan had just said so when he's suddenly picked up he nearly jumped so badly he just about fell from his arms. Luckily he didn't and he was in shock to find him running away. What...is he doing?! He looked behind to see that luckily they got out of there just in time before the alphas had gotten to where they just were. His gaze landed on Logan and he whimpered behind the muzzle, holding his hands close to his chest. He was still scared, this beta could be taking him to a group of alphas for all he knows.

Logan keeps running, heading back quickly to his apartment. He hopes that his memory of one his roommate who happens to be an alpha saying he was heading out is correct. As much as he trusts him he thinks the omega isn’t going to be comfortable with an alpha nearby currently.

The omega was crying the entire way, scared of what was to happen and become of him. What if Master's follow him? What if he's heading to New Master's? What if he's going to hurt him himself? There's so many what ifs and he's so terrified right now. He didn't stop crying even when Logan got into the apartment and had closed the door. By then his hands were raised to protect himself while he was crying. His cheeks covered in tears and his eyes red and puffy.

Logan quickly locks the door before placing him on the couch gently. Logan carefully removes the muzzle, speaking softly to him. “Hey, you’re safe. I promise that no one is going to hurt you. I’m trying to help you.

He gave a cry when he was placed on the couch before stopping and looking down, not harmful? Not harmful. Okay. Then he flinched and whimpered, crying out when he moved to touch him. Only to realize he's taking off the muzzle. There were obvious signs that it's been on his mouth for a very long time, his peeling and blistering skin is anything to go by. When he opened his mouth the other could see that his tongue is completely missing. He hiccuped and curled up against the couch, shaking his head. "M-Master... Master... Master... He... You... I... I can't... No... I..." He stuttered over himself, his breathing quick. He was obviously too scared to even make much sense. The thong basically did nothing and he was making a small mess on the couch by his slick.

Logan quickly grabs some of his own spare clothes. “I need you to try to calm down a bit. I have some spare clothes you can borrow.” Logan is worried about this omega. From a past relationship he knew a small bit about how the omega is most likely feeling right now.

"N-No... No... Need... Need Master's...permission... I can't... Get in trouble... Trouble bad.... Trouble... I... I can't get... No.... No clothes..." He frantically shakes his head, looking at the clothes as if it'll burn him, which might not be far from the truth judging by how many scars he has. He tries to take deep breaths in, but it was so hard when his panicked thoughts are going so crazy right now. "I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." He whispered, shaking. "Gonna... Gonna...sell me? Take...to Master's or... Or... I..."

“It’s okay. I’m got going to any of that. I’m to call an ambulance and police, they are trained for situations like this and it’s going to help much better than I can on my own.”

"I... But... What.... They'll..." He takes another shaky breath to try and concentrate on talking. "Master's... Master's...in... Master's are in...work for police... Alphas work...for police... Black uniforms... Black uniforms with handcuffs... I think that's police... Will get me... They will get me." He says shakily, trying to calm down the best he could. Luckily it was getting easier and easier as he looked around the place and as time went by, he thought if he was gonna sell him he would be calling around already.

Logan is very worried by this. “Okay, let me think for a second.” Logan begins to think about what he should do, assessing every reasonable option.

He shakily nods, "A-Are you... Are you...my Master now...?" He asked hesitantly, then shut up so he could think. He was quiet, staring at him then everything around them taking the place in. He didn't understand what most of these things do, in all honesty... Even though he was curious he stayed perfectly still, not wanting to move unless told to. He didn't want to test the patience of this beta.

"Hello?" A voice entered the room, the front door being opened and the sound of keys being jangled could be heard.

Logan immediately chokes on his own tongue when he says that. “N-No. uh, um.” Logan is seriously caught off guard by that question.

"I-I... Huh...? But you...saved me...? You own...me now? I'm... I'm confused?" He stared at him, not understanding why he denied it. Either he is his new master or...he's being sold off... But he said no to being sold off so he's...really confused right now. Just as he was starting to finally calm down the door had opened and he jumped up. And his eyes instantly widened in fear when he smelt the alpha smell.

"Lo? You're back already too? Turns out that theater place was a ditch, such a shame too." Roman walked over to the living room and he froze at the scene before him. He was about ready to take off his bag when he spotted the nearly naked man on their couch. And he was definitely in heat. His nose winkled and he glanced at Logan. "Uh... Lo... Care to explain why a nearly naked omega that in heavy heat is currently in our apartment? Did you order a prostitute or something?"

“On my way to the bookstore I found this omega running from someone who he calls ‘Master’ who is most likely someone who has abused him and might kill him. So, no I have not ordered a prostitute.”

"Ah... Well, that's a shame. Cause my hormones are going bonkers right now. He..." Roman took a moment to process everything he just said. He glanced back at Logan, "Is it like... with you?" He asked, knowing about Logan's past. He was the one who helped him break from his alphas control after all.

The omega was dead quiet, he stared at Roman in pure horror. Is this who he's going to give him too?! He couldn't even ask any questions, all that came out was little peeps and hiccups.

“Yes, it is like that.” Logan can sense that the omega is more than terrified so he turns. “He’s not going to hurt you. I’m not selling you or letting you get hurt. He is a great friend of mine, I know him well and he is isn’t going to take advantage of you, I promise.

"Oh... Gotcha..." Roman takes a deep breath, trying to remember what he did with logan back then. Be a rock and ground him. Comfort him... Okay. Very slowly he kneeled down so he wasn't towering over the quivering omega. And he forced himself to push back his instincts on breeding this Omega. He clearly doesn't need that. And very slowly he scoots a bit forward so he was kneeling before the omega. And he let out calming scents. "I promise i won't ever hurt you, alright? I promise on my life. Can you take a breath for me? Focus on my voice and my scent. Sh... Sh... Breathe..."

The omega didn't know what was happening. But when Logan turned to him he looked over. Only to swallow and let out a few more peeps, but he seemed a bit calmer at that. Not take advantage... He jumped when Roman moved, only to blink when he kneeled down to the ground. He didn't know how to even respond to this. He stared at Roman then at Logan, being completely baffled and confused. "W-What...? But I...need a Master.... Need... I can't... Please? Can I have a Master? Please? I can't... I don't know...what to do with myself... Please..." He begged to them, clearly conditioned to needing a Master for everything.

Logan sighs softly, knowing this mindset more than he would like to. “You don’t need a Master, I promise. What they have done to you is wrong and what they have told you about needing a Master is false.” Logan speaks calmly and softly. Letting out calming scents like Roman but they are definitely not as strong as Roman’s due to some events from his past.

"I... I... N-No... I... I need..." He stuttered, shaking his head with tears in his eyes. He sounded devasted, like somebody told him his dog just died. He put his head in his hands and sobbed loudly once more, crying as if he lost something precious to him. "I... No... Not wrong... Not bad... No... They weren't... N-No... Please... Please..." He sobbed, "I need... A master.... Please!!" He begged, he looked around and noticed the wall behind him. He stood up and started slamming his head against the wall with enough force to make the wall shake. "I'm bad! Bad! Bad!!"

"I'll be your Master!" Roman blurted out, he didn't want to, obviously, but he didn't know how else to calm him down.

Logan quickly puts his arm in between him and the wall. “Calm down. You aren’t bad. If you need a Master, I will be your Master.” Logan says trying to keep his voice steady and calm.

"Are you sure, Logan? He... He's worse off then you were... And..." Roman said nervously, whispering to him. He isn't certain about Logan taking care of him, it might trigger some memories...

He immediately stops when he puts an arm between him. Then freezes when they both shouted that they were gonna be his master's. He looked back and stared between them. Then he took a shaky breath and nods, he stands perfectly still as some blood trickle down his head. "Okay... Master's... I'm... I'm sorry... I'm very sorry..." He sat back down, his head down and he immediately calmed down.

“I... I am not completely sure...” Logan whispers back, admitting he isn’t completely comfortable with taking care of him as he already close to an ‘episode’. Logan quickly gets a first aid kit before starting to treat the wounds on the omega the best he can.

"Okay, let me take care of him. He'll listen to me more anyways since I'm an alpha. He might question later why he's listening to a beta. It's alright." Roman whispers to him, then moves out of his way. Only to help him care for the wound on the omegas head. "Or do you think we should let him choose? I... I don't really know. You gravitated towards me but that might just be cause I kept getting in your way back then..."

He sat perfectly still while they tended to his wound, not even moving a bit.

“I don’t really know either. I think we should let him choose so he can get used to choosing for himself easier?...” Logan whispers as he and Roman care for the wound.

"Yeah, thats a good idea. It'll be a nice first step to getting him used to that. Jesus, can he take one of your heat suppressors first? It is so hard trying to concentrate with that heat smell." He says with a low growl in his voice, but he shakes his head and groans.

Logan nods, quickly getting one as he notes that he’s running low on them before returning and crouching in front of the omega. “Hey, I need you to take this. It doesn’t hurt, I promise.”

Roman scoots a bit back once he rushes off to compose himself. He knows it'll take about twenty minutes for it to really take effect but at least he'll have taken it.

He slowly looks up once he was addressed and he looks down at the pill. He debates on whether he should take it or not. Before swallowing his fear and gets the pill, quickly swallowing it dry. He is scared of taking it of course, since his master's did gave them drugs a lot, but he didn't want to anger any of them either.

“They aren’t harmful, they help a lot in heat. They also help my friend, Roman, keep control of himself and his instincts better.” Logan says trying to reassure him that he is safe.

"Okay, Master... Thank you. I'm sorry I hurt other Master from my heat... Why isn't he breeding me...? Or you?" He asked, finally looking up at both of them. Then he bites his lip, "Sorry for asking questions... Am I allowed to ask questions, Master's?"

Roman shivered at how dull his voice sounded. Yep... Exactly like how Logan sounded... "Hey, little omega." He scoots closer to him, keeping his hands down onto the rug. "We have a question for you. And yes, you may ask as many questions as your heart wants. You wont get in trouble by it. No question is dumb. And no breeding, we don't do breeding here. Unless you want it." He takes a breath, "Would you want me as your master or Logan here? You get to choose who you want to follow, is that alright?"

“It is not your fault.” Logan shivers with Roman, remembering when he was like this. Logan nods, agreeing with Roman and looking in between the omega and Roman slowly.

He was silent, looking between both of them. He...gets to choose? That's...really strange. Sometimes he does have two or three Master's at a time. So this is strange. And he is scared at picking the wrong one and the other being angry at him. As he debates this he bites his lip nervously hugging himself. Very slowly he points at Logan, he trusted him more then Roman right now. Especially since he's a beta. Then he quickly looked at Roman, only to flinch and look away.

"Hey, hey, that's good. Thank you for choosing and answering us. Here," He gets up to go to the kitchen, and he comes back with half a cookie. "A treat for being so good for us so far." He gives him the cookie and luckily he takes it, but he glances at Logan. "You're gonna be up for this?"

Logan nods hesitantly. “Y-Yes.”

Roman obviously hears his stutter and he smiles softly, "Come here." He stands up and backs away so the omega won't think he's towering over him or anything. And he hugs Logan, "You can do this, okay? I know you can. You've come so so far. If it ever gets too much you can tell him to stay in your room and come to mine, okay? Or tell him to listen and follow me. I won't mind it at all." He whispers to his ear.

He glances at the cookie and sniffs it hesitantly, he's never seen this before... Strange... It doesn't smell bad or rotten so that's good... He slowly takes a nibble from the cookie but once he tastes the flavor his eyes widened. He shovels the entire thing in his mouth and happily chews it, loving the taste. "Thank you!" He says around his mouthful.

Logan hugs back, nodding softly.

Roman gives a gentle squeeze, "So... We should probably take this guy to the hospital first. He looks pretty...thin and sickly... He might have to stay overnight just by the looks of him... You get him in the car and I pack a bag?" He asked, thinking that was probably the best course of action.

Logan nods, turning to help the omega. “We’re going to get you to a hospital, okay?”

"Hos...pital....? What's that, Master?" He asked, taking his hand a bit shakily to stand up. He got dizzy when he stood up though and had to grip on the couch to keep steady and not fall. Taking a few shaky breaths he tried to stop the room from spinning.

Roman rushed into his room to grab his back and start packing.

Logan helps him stand shifting him so he is supporting the omega. “It’s a place where doctors work and they help heal sick and injuried people. They are good.”

He whimpered when he moved him, thinking he was going to toss him to the ground and force him to move. But instead he blinked and was shocked to see him actually supporting him. Uh... "O-Oh... No... No previous... Master's...? No...cops?" He asked shakily, his head hurting the more he moved. But he forced himself to keep going for Logan.

Logan nods, quickly picking him up carefully and softly. “None of that, I promise.” Logan speaks softly.

"O-Okay... Thank you, Master." He squeaked and tried to hold in a small scream when he picked him up. But he took a shaky breath to calm down. "I... You're...a better Master already... I... I like you more..." He whispered under his breath as he held on to him, blinking at the sunlight once they got outside and hissing softly. "M-Master... Other Master isn't mad that I choose you, right? You're not mad either?"

“Neither of us are mad, I promise.” Logan says as he places the omega in the car.

"O-Okay... Okay... Thank you, Master. I'm sorry for punishing myself. I'm very sorry." He says, sitting down in the car very stock still. He wanted to be good for his new master after all.

Roman came jogging over with a bag, "Alright, I got snacks and a change of clothes for all of us. Here's I assume the clothes you tried to give him? It was laying on the couch so..." He gave Logan the clothes, "Then toothbrush, toothpaste, uh... I don't think we need anything else... I'll come back tomorrow if he does need to stay."

Logan nods, taking the clothes. “Okay, good. thank you, Roman”

"Of course, man, of course." Roman gives him a quick hug before going over to place the bag in the truck. "I'll drive!" He says as he hops into the drivers seat and started up the car to turn on the heat as it was a bit chilly outside.

The omega watched them curiously, not having an idea what is going on. As the car started he jumped in surprise before resting back down, shifting side to side a bit nervously.

Logan sits next to the omega just in case he needs help. “You’re safe. Nothing is going to hurt you now.” Logan reassures the omega softly.

He glanced over at him once he sat next to him, blinking as to why he did that. And he stared at him at his reassuring words, just staring for several moments. Before giving a nod, "O-Okay... I uh... Okay..." He mumbles, and he didn't sound like he was convinced at all. But he agrees anyways.

"We'll both protect you, alright? Trust me. Your part of our pack now, so you don't have to worry about a thing. Just focus on getting better and we'll do the rest." Roman said as he started pulling out then driving along.

Logan nods. “Yes, Roman is correct.”

He is silent, then glances away. "A...pack?" His voice trembles and he swallows thickly. "I... No... No dark room? I... I don't....want to go back... to dark room... I'm... I'm sorry... I'll be good, I promise." He sounded on the verge of tears and he hiccuped, drawing his hands shakily around himself in a hug.

“No dark room, we promise. You don’t have to apologize.” Logan reassures softly, extremely concerned about the omega.

"Yes, Logan is right. No dark room. We'll make sure you don't ever go back there. We'll keep your room lit at all times. It's okay, it's okay, you've been so good for both of us. We're really happy at how good you've been." Roman replied back, keeping his voice soft. But he glances at Logan from the rear view mirror with concern. And he could tell that Logan feels exactly the same.

"R-Really? Oh... Okay... Thank you... Master's. Thank you." He sounded very relieved, incredibly relieved actually. "You're...good Master's... Thank you." He really did sound greatful, these Master's were already a lot better then his previous ones. He takes a shaky breath and pulls up his knees to his chest, trying to be small as possible.

Logan is extremely concerned for the omega.

Roman is silent for a bit, sharing Logan's exact worried thoughts. This one...might be worse then Logan's case... And he isn't sure if they can even help him. But he wants to try, he really wants to try. "So... Do you have a name? We can't keep calling you 'omega' or any of that forever."

He snapped out of his thoughts to look ahead at Roman. And he shook his head. "No, Master. I don't. I'm whatever a master wants to call me. Some name me slut... Others name me whore. Would you want to name me one of those?"

Logan’s concern quickly turns to worry. “No...”

"What?!" Roman sounded appalled, and concerned. Mixed with anger and disgust as well. "No! No... No, we are not calling you any of those names. Hell no. What about... Hm... What do you think, lo? You are his master after all."

He flinched when they all said no to that. Guess that's...a bad thing? He swallowed thickly and glanced to logan, waiting for his answer but remaining quiet this time.

“Hm.. Dee maybe?” Logan is extremely worried and nervous currently and that is one of the only names he can think of.

"Dee's a good name! What do you think about that name? We could change it if you don't like it." Roman says, honestly he's as worried if not more then Logan right now. But he's trying to lift up the mood the best he could. Which probably isn't very good but hey, he's trying.

"it's... It's okay... Thank you, Master. My name is dee now, thank you." He says, bowing his head. Really any name Logan chose he would've said it was good to. But this name he rather quite...liked. It had a nice ring to it, he thought.

Logan smiles softly, mentally thanking Roman for trying to lift the room.

Roman could tell that he was thanking him quietly, and he smiled at that. He drove into the parking spot at the hospital and sighed as he stopped the car and unbuckled. "Alright, you carry Dee in lo and uh... I guess I can sign the papers? If you want? And you go with Dee to the back while they uh...do whatever they need to do?" He asked, figuring out the plan.

Dee was quiet and he looked out the window, marveling at just how big the building was. It was way bigger then the warehouse, or well, what he thinks the warehouse looked like from the outside.

Logan nods, getting out of the car and going to Dee’s side.

Dee looks up when he gets out of the car, and he slowly attempts to open his door. Once he did he stood up, but he must've stood up way too quickly cause everything spun around suddenly. He grew pale before collasping. Luckily he fell right on Logan and he had his eyes shut, his breathing was uneven and he took shaky breaths in.

Roman practically jumped out of the car when he saw Dee collasping. "Logan, go in now! I'll sign the papers!" He quickly got in the car to grab his keys, rushing around.

Logan nods, scooping Dee up and rushing into the hospital.

Dee whimpered at the sudden movement, gripping onto him hard like he was afraid of falling. But he also hid his head in his chest, the rush of light hurting his eyelids. He could hear voices but it sounded like it was coming from underwater.

Luckily, nurses saw them and rushed over. A few nurses were right behind and guestered Logan over to one of their back rooms. They were speaking to each other while they told Logan to set him on the bed in the room. "We'll take it from here. Can you wait in the waiting room for us, please?"

Logan goes in the room and places him on the bed. “I-I uh okay.” Logan stammers before hesitatingly leaving the room and going back to the waiting room, extremely worried and nervous.

Dee doesn't know what's going on, as he felt hands and what he thinks is needles on his arm. "Ma... Master...?" He shakily whispers under his breath and manages to open his eyes. Only to see that Logan has left and he sighed, his head resting on the pillow once more.

Roman is filling out the paperwork when he looks up. "What they say?" He asked, holding up his wrist for Logan to scent if he needed it. He knows that calms him down most of the time, but he isn't sure about right now.

“That they were going to take over now.” Logan says as he softly holds Roman wrist, smelling his scent which calms a part of Logan but he is still nervous and worried.

"It's gonna be alright, Lo. They'll fix him. I promise you that they'll fix him. Everything will be alright, okay? Sh..." Roman released calming and reassuring scents for him and rubbed his back. He even started nuzzling his cheek with his own. "They'll fix him, and we will go home and really get to know him. Dee is a great name for him by the way. It's a fantastic name." He cooed, trying to calm him down the best he could.

Logan smiles softly as the calming and reassuring scents work, he nuzzles his cheek back gently.

Roman smiles back, glad that the scents were working in calming him down. He nuzzles his cheek back gently and sent more scents his way. And he sighed softly, honestly very worried and concerned himself. But he tries to hide it for Logan's sake.

About a half hour later a nurse comes out and walks over to Logan. "You're the one with the scarred omega right?"

Logan nods, becoming extremely worried. “Yes, is he okay?”

Roman is silent, waiting and squeezing Logan's hand.

"He is stable for now. We think he'll be okay in the long run, yes. He's going to need lots of treatment though. His blood cell count was...we haven't ever seen it as low as his was. We had to do a blood transfusion, mulitiple IVs, an oxygen tank since he was having troubles breathing on his own. He is... He's pretty sick."

Logan nods, still extremely worried but is relieved to here that they think he will be okay in the long run at least and Roman’s presence alone is helping him stay calm. “Ah...” Logan manages to say. Due to the abuse he went through from that alpha, Logan is quite awkward when it comes to social things and is extremely quiet often only answering with one or two words. It took a while for him to properly talk and open up to Roman, Roman being one of few people Logan can properly talk without only using one or two words.

Roman is extremely relieved, worried but relieved. As long as they think he'll be fine in the long run that's good enough for him. That means that he has a good enough chance to survive. He squeezes Logan's hand reassuringly when he hears the single word, knowing exactly what he wants to say. He knows that Logan can't say more then one word in front of strangers, so he often steps in and talks for him. And he knows what he wants to say just from his expression and his tone of that single word. "We are very grateful. Thank you so so much. We are both just... Thank you. Is there any chance we can see him?"

"Yes, you may. Right this way." She points down the hallway and smiles, "No need to thank me. I'm just doing my job." She smiles and opens up a door.

Logan smiles softly at Roman, silently thanking him. When she opens the door, Logan goes in the room quickly with extreme worry all over his face.

Roman smiles back, squeezing his hand yet again to silently say that he doesn't have to thank him. Then he followed them, he stays a bit behind Logan making sure he gets to Dee first.

There are quite a lot of wires going into both of his arms, including the poles beside him. And loud beeping was coming from the heart monitor. Dee looked paler then before, his sticky hair plastered to his forehead. And a mask was over his mouth and nose. He definitely didn't look good right now at all, he looked close to death with how pale he is. He appeared to be asleep, his eyes closed and was resting luckily.

Logan lets out a breath he didn’t know he was holding when he sees Dee but worry still runs his mind currently.

Roman swallows at the sight of Dee. That...didn't look very good... He looked back at the nurse to see that she's already gone, huh, well... Then he glanced at Logan to see his transfixed stare at Dee. "Hey, hey, he's going to be okay. Sh... I know it's a lot. But he's going to be fine." He hugs Logan tightly and rubs his back. Just then he heard a groan come from the omega and he looks over, watching Dee slowly open his eyes and look around.

Logan hugs back, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath in. Logan then looks immediately at Dee when he heard the groan. “H-How are you feeling, Dee?”

Roman looks over as well, holding in his breath. He draws up a chair besides his bed for Logan and himself. Knowing Logan probably won't want to leave his side for a while, knowing him at least.

Dee stared at them, as if he has to really concentrate as to who they are. He was silent for several moments before he swallowed and finally spoke. "T-Tired... Not.... Not good..." He groaned out, Winching a bit. "Hurts..? Hurts... Master...didn't leave me?" He sounded a bit heartbroken, like he actually thought that Logan was going to leave him here and won't come back.

Logan sits down, once again silently thanking Roman. When Dee speaks Logan feels guilty for leaving the room and making Dee think he was going to abandon him. “N-No, I would never. I will n-never. I promise.”

Ran shakes his head without saying anything, as if silently saying don't mention it. He focuses on Dee and shakes his head, "No... No, we won't leave you. We won't ever leave you. Okay?"

Dee blinked between them and he could see some emotion in Logan's eyes. He couldn't place what it was though... He cleared his throat a bit then sucked in a breath. "Really...? Oh... Okay... I'm sorry, Master... Sorry... I thought that... Won't think that again..." He silently stared at the wall for a moment before blinking and coming to. "What's... this?" He points weakly at the mask, it wasn't hurting and he could obviously still talk, but he didn't know what it was for.

“I-It’s a mask that helps you b-breathe.” Logan explains, gripping Roman’s hand gently to remind himself that Roman is here which calms him.

Roman grips his hand back, gently rubbing his thumb along logans hand. He scoots his chair closer and hugs Logan from the side, still holding his hand. He released calming scents again, wanting Logan to know that he's here and not going to leave him.

"Oh... Oh... Okay... Feels funny... Mhm..." He whispers, his voice slurring together. "Mhm... No... No bad men? Bad...alphas... You better Master... Like you... Don't make me eat pups like old Master's... Pups don't taste very good..." He was obviously high off of some drug. But it was making him calm, maybe a bit too calm.

Logan smiles softly at the scents, it working though when Dee says this some bad memories attack his mind but he manages to stay composed and not curl up in a ball. His alpha never made him eat his pups luckily though he did often kill them in front of Logan or forced Logan to kill them. “N-No bad men a-are here... I-I won’t, I-I promise with all my heart.”

Roman is dead silent at what Dee says. He doesn't even know what to say back to that. But he does feel Logan tighten up so he moves his free hand up to massage his scalp. "There is none of that here, we promise. None of that will happen ever again. Now...try to relax okay? Get some sleep. We'll be here when you wake up, little one. Sh..." Roman goes over to pull the blanket over him some more and sighs softly, going right back to Logan side.

Dee glances between both of them. "Okay... Okay... Uh... Is... Is Master okay?" Even in his daze state he noticed his stuttering and little bit of shakingness. Then he blinks at Roman and nods, "Okay... I'll get some sleep...for you Master... Want to be good...for you... Good slave... Mhm... Good slut..." He yawns, then smiles his eyes dropping closed.

Logan has started to space out remembering every pup, what he wanted to name them, and how they died, trembling and leaning into Roman’s warmth. Logan flinches for second when Roman touches his scrap but when he smells Roman’s scent a half second later he stops and leans into Roman’s hand.

Roman could feel him trembling and could feel his flinch, he removes his hand only to see him leaning into it. So he continued massaging his scalp, and he hugs him close and protectively. "Master is alright, he's okay. It's just been a long day for him. You aren't a slave or a slut. You are Dee. And your the best omega anybody could ask for. Now sh... Sh... Go to sleep." He watches Dee slowly fall asleep. Then he digs in his pockets for his earpods that he always carries with him just in case. He places them in Logan's ears then brings out his phone as well. He scrolls through his music to find the playlist he had downloaded just for when Logan gets his flashbacks. He starts playing it then he gently rocked him side to side, humming softly and releasing his calming scents some more. "You're not there, Logan. You're not there. Sh... Focus on the music. Focus on me." He whispered calmly to him.

Logan’s trembling soon stops after Roman starts playing music and releasing his calming scents. Logan relaxes, slowly hugging Roman gently and tired as flashbacks can be tiring and he didn’t get much sleep last night.

Roman smiles when he could feel his trembling slowly coming to a stop. That's great. That's...really really great. And he smiles even more at feeling him relaxing under his hands. Thank God he downloaded that playlist, it has been a lifesaver more then once. He knew he'd be tired right after this so he looks around the room. And luckily there were a small couch at the far end of the wall. Gently he scoops up Logan in his arms and brings him over to the couch, laying Logan on his chest and grabbing a blanket and pillow from where he was. He laid the blanket on them and puts the pillow behind his head. He places a gentle kiss on Logan's forehead then rubs his back. "Go to sleep, Lo. I'll be here. I won't leave you." He whispers to him, yawning himself. It's been a tiring few hours.

“G-Goodnight, Ro.” Logan yawns softly before falling asleep and gently snuggling Roman in his sleep.

"Goodnight, Lo." He whispers back, and he stays awake for a bit longer. Just to make sure that Logan is asleep and Dee is too. The heart monitor is weirdly calming but at the same time stressful. But he sighs and lays down some more, having his arms gently protective around Logan. And he falls asleep snuggling Logan back and he sleeps peacefully.

Logan sleeps peacefully for several hours until a nightmare attacked his first peaceful sleep in around a month causing him to shift slightly and whimper.

Roman was still sound asleep, but when he heard that whimper subconsciously he held him tighter and released more calming scents. "Mhm... No... Bad...sound... Mhm... Not that... Not..." He mumbled in his sleep then turned his head, he rolled over and held Logan almost like a stuffed animal close to his chest.

Logan relaxes, the nightmare stopping. Logan snuggles closer to Roman chest in his sleep.

Roman snuggled him, wrapping his arms and legs around him in his sleep. He immediately went back to sleep once Logan snuggled up to him, even subconsciously knowing that he's fine now.

Just as they were about to go back to sleep Dee's heart monitor started beeping more intensely. And the sounds of the bed rocking back and forth can be heard. Followed by what sounded like crying and mumbling incoherent words.

Logan immediately wakes up, jumping in surprise and falls off the couch before looking at Dee, panicking.

Dee is kicking out at something, his head shaking back and forth and sobbing. Though he was clearly asleep, just having a nightmare by the looks of things. He was doing that for a moment before he suddenly screams at the top of his lungs and jump up, his eyes open with a panic and his breathing is heavy. He brings up his knees to his chest and sobs quietly into his knees.

Roman was starting to wake up when he heard the loud thuds, but at the loud scream he was instantly awake. He snapped awake and nearly fell ontop of logan. But he manages to catch himself and look around to where the screaming came from. Only to see it was Dee who was crying and shaking. He frowns and leans over to Logan to take out the earpods, then he slowly walked over to Dee. "Hey... Hey, it's okay... It's alright. Sh..." He cooed. But Dee only jumped away from him, and looked at him with pure terror.

Logan gets up from the floor slowly and carefully approaches Dee slowly. “Hey.. Dee... it’s okay... you’re safe...”

Roman slowly backs away then, he knows if he keeps going towards him that would only make him panic more.

Dee whips over when he hears Logan and sucks in a breath. His eyes are unfocused for a bit and he just stares at Logan. Until he shakes his head to clear it out. Slowly he registers what he's saying and he hiccups. "M-Master...?" He managed to say, his body shaking. "I... I... N-No... Not... Mhm..." He whispers, shaking his head and curling back into a ball.

“Did you have a nightmare, Dee?” Logan says softly, slowly moving closer to Dee.

"Y-Yes... M-Master..." He hiccuped, hiding his face in his knees the best he could. Though the tugging on the wires were making it hard to do. But he ignored it and kept tugging, sobbing quietly. He seemed to be forcing himself to calm down, probably from his nails digging into his legs so hard that it's causing it to bleed. But it's making himself snap back to reality, which is what he wanted. "Sorry... Sorry... Stupid... M' stupid... I'll... Go back to sleep now... Very.. very... Very sorry...to wake you up.. very... I..." He sucks in a harsh breath then forced himself to lay back down.

“Hey, it’s okay... I’m sorry you had a nightmare... You aren’t stupid.. it’s not your fault, Dee...” Logan speaks softly.

Dee hesitantly glanced at him, still tears pouring down his cheeks but he shakes his head. He immediately wipes it all away and digs his nails into his face to keep from crying some more. "I... Not... Not okay... Not... I.... Why...aren't you... whipping me... Master? I don't.. I... I... Stupid... Stupid...slut... Not..." He takes a shaky breath, "Every night...have nightmares... It's fine... It's... It's okay..."

“You aren’t a s-slut. You are Dee and you are amazing. I’m sorry you have nightmares every night.... I do too.” Logan is extremely worried about Dee.

Dee immediately shook his head, his name now is Dee of course. But he isn't amazing. He is anything but. He's a slut, that's what he is... Though at his whisper he glanced up at him, few bits of blood coming from his cheeks. "Master...has nightmares... N-Not... Not possible... Not... Lying... Lying... Trick... Master's trick... Lie... Master's lie..." He shook his head again and brought up the blanket over his head. "Lie..." He whispered, hiding himself in a tight ball.

Roman glanced over at Logan and bit his lip nervously. Logan wasn't like this at all back when he saved him. Sure, he did hide away when he had nightmares but... He didn't hurt himself or act like this. He wasn't sure what to do.

Logan doesn’t know what to do too. “I can promise you that I am not lying...” Worry and Concern overwhelming Logan as he speaks softly.

Dee could hear the worry in his voice, and it's very clear now. He at first didn't even know what that emotion was. Until he had to realize it sounded a lot like the others when they're being taken away by the alphas. Worry... And fear of course. He swallows and slowly peeks out to look at him. "Master's...don't...get nightmares... They... They give it..." He hiccuped, "You... I... I'm... I'm confused..." He admitted slowly as it was clear that his hands were trembling against his cheeks.

“Not all Masters are like that... I-I used to have a M-Master like that.... B-But now I-I’m free.” Logan says as he slowly ends up next to Dee and carefully and slowly tries to lower Dee’s hands from his face.

"You.... You... You...did?" He had to repeat himself as he tried to focus on his words rather then his shaking and ever growing panic in his mind. "How... You... I... Huh?" He asked, completely confused as to how he had a Master before too. But he's a Master... How does that...make sense... When he moves towards his hands he whimpered and shut his eyes, flinching violently from his hands. Only to open his eyes and look at him, his hands moving with his movements.

Logan slowly and gently moves his hands down away from his face. “I’m sorry for scaring you, I don’t want you to hurt yourself... Yes, I did. I’m sorry you had to go through all that.”

Dee doesn't open his eyes at all while he has hold of his hands. He keeps whimpering and holding his breath, expecting to get hit from him. Ever so slowly he opens his eyes once he moves his hands down then blinks. "You... Bad...hurt... Bad..." He finally sucks in a gasp of air and hugs himself. He doesn't know how to handle of this. That he's apologizing to him. That he really had a Master before too. None of this makes much sense to him. "I... I... I don't... I..." He shuts his eyes again and shakes his head, he was still shaking but it wasn't nearly as bad as before. And his breathing has gone down now that he's thinking of what Logan's saying. "Sorry...? Sorry... Sorry... Wake up bad... Sorry." He mumbled.

“It’s okay. I’m sorry for startling you. I was going to wake up from a nightmare soon most likely so you kinda saved me from another nightmare. Thank you.” Logan says softly.
