Living up to your dreams Chapter 2
Phil was for sure in heaven. It's been only two weeks and seven meetings with Dan, but he felt like there was nothing more important than theirs conversations on the fluffy rug, laughs and secrets shared with shushed voices. Dan was mesmerised with outside word, especially Phil’s work. He had never met omega who liked listening about algorithms and process of making an app, game or general computer’s work. When he was telling Alexander about this idea, of game with challenges and time limit, young blond teen snorted and told Phil to man up. He is not a kid anymore and, even if he is any good in all this stuff, won’t it be better to use his skills in different way? Alex was really keen on Phil’s future in weapons construction. War and conflicts terrifies alpha so that idea was a big no no.
- Honey, you like this boy, don't you? - his mother asked when they were siting together in living room and watching her favourite TV show. Black haired man just nodded. He felt, of course, something to Dan at first sight - arousal. But right after few meeting, when boy opened a little, Phil found out that they have actually a lot of in common. Omega told him all about what he could or could not do. He has all electronics in his condo, made specially for omega, so he briefly knows how outside word looks like. He even told Phil in shushed voice that if he is sitting in this one place in his room he can catch Alpha’s father wifi and read articles made for betas. Right after his confession Dan curled to small ball and disappeared in his room in belief he told too much. It wasn’t, in eyes of society, for him to do that - but Phil didn't mind. If he liked betas stuff more why forbid it. The only thing Phil thought was different that he understood them. Everybody rather knew that omegas are far less intelligent.
- I’m sorry, but you need to decide quickly. Alpha Peter pressures me to seal the deal. - Catherine wasn't at ease. She knew that Dan was a true omega, and her son didn't know this before meeting. And she was truly glad. When he told her about Howell’s son she was really afraid Phil was wanting just a brain washed and obedient partner, but she raised him right. However it was still to much strange fog around this whole agreement. All this hurry…
- I already decided. - he told her taking a sip of coffee.
- I really like him, he is my omega I can feel it, but I can’t make him decide so early. He is still a little afraid of me. - Phil had all this plan, maybe in the next few months Dan will warm up to him more and agreed to marriage by his own choice.
- I’m worried we don't have that much time, my dear. You need to make a decision, yes or not. Peter gave us 24 hours. - Alpha Lester was now looking at his hands. What? 24 hours? Phil took of the couch almost immediately, he needs to go meet with Dan! Explain him this whole situation and ask about it. Yeah, thats not that bad. He will propose but as a friend and and…
- He banned you from his house till the wedding… I’m so sorry dear.
Phil was raised in quite modern household. His mother always said that omegas need to be cherished and loved, treated with respect and gentle manner. Young Lester never saw this domestic behaviour towards his father. They’ve lost him in tragic car accident. They have never spoked about it and Catherine never even tried to look after someone else. As Martyn said: she loved him too much to accept any different partner. So it wasn't really strange for Phil to want relationship like that. He dreamed that his future husband will love him and theirs kits. He has never even considered that his omega will be crying his eyes out on their wedding. He has never even considered that his omega will be crying his eyes out on their wedding only in white lace panties.
Taking any omega from theirs family was something like rite of passage. From this day alpha is obligated to take care of him and to take all the responsibilities of his actions. As figurative expression omegas come nowadays to the wedding in white simple dress or white trousers with shirt. Nothing fancy. They are coming to the new life with nothing but hope and trust. Phil heard that traditionally they needed to be naked, for everybody to see if „it was a good purchase”. And as living proof of this awful outdated tradition - Dan was standing there, in big room in Howells mansion only in fucking lingerie, trembling profusely. If Phil wasn't in such a shock he will probably end all this farce and made them put something on him.
Brown haired boy was walking to him slowly and unsurely looking down. Meanwhile on the other hand all quests from Howells side, all alphas, was cheering like in the fucking strip club. Someone even whistled. Every alpha, beside Phil, in the room was obligated to wear scent concealing mask to sidestep any dangerous and primary behaviour, but Dan was smelling so strongly that they still felt uneasy. God, he was perfect. Milky skin, thin but with a little pudge near hips, not even a single hair on his body. No stop. Phil didn't know where to look. He can’t check him out here, without his consent. When Dan has stood in front of him something strange appeared to Phil. His future husband was nearly as tall as him, only few inches shorter, what was kinda strange. Omegas was usually smaller than alphas and black haired man never saw someone like him. Priest started talking, not even a little taken a back by appearance of the groom. He was chosen by Peter so clearly this whole deal wasn't new. Dan didn't even looked at him, the only thing Phil saw was tears on the carpet.
- Alpha Phil Lester, as our Lord said, you can now take this omega as your property and do what you like. We trust however to be loyal to ours traditions and beliefs. - old man said. Was this right decision? If Phil wouldn't agreed to the wedding so quickly, they will find Dan another alpha, probably someone like Mark or even worse, someone like Peter. He wanted so badly to see this sweet boy and explain everything, from stars to finish, than this whole thing will be just to make Dan safe. They didn't need to be partners, just friends. Phil was going to give him space and support every action. Under young Lester life would be so much better than in Howell’s household.
But now, as omega was still crying and alpha was fastening a big, black collar our boys neck he wasn't so sure. His mother choose this one, just a plain one with blocky DL letters. Daniel Lester.
- Dan, I’m so sorry… - he murmured kissing omega on the cheek delicately. Brown haired teen didn't answer, but looked up at his, from now on, husband, It wasn't a look Phil was hoping for. Newly wed was looking at him, still crying, with loath and pure anger. He was like scared animal, not composed and weak, but still ready to bite. It was all that alpha could take. It was an end of nice fucking Phil. He is now fully an alpha, Dan is his and they all can eat shit. He took off his jacket and put it around boys naked shoulders, took his hand. Theres no time to be gentle right now.
- I’m taking him home. - he said to Catherine going to the front door, fast and unapologetic, Dan stamping weakly behind him.
- But, quests and the dinner… - They had still obligation to Howell’s family and their own one. They needed to show everybody that it was a good decision.
- Fuck this, I can do with my omega the fuck I want. - he hissed and almost drag said omega to the car outside. After all this he need to probably apologise but right now Dan was the most important thing. Still in amuck he tossed his husband near him and fasten his seatbelt.
In this brief time they was driving to Phil’s private flat, their future flat, Dan ended his big cry and now was only clenching fists and teeth. He looked so small, despite the high. All this anger and emotions started to wander off him. Oh god, he was too rough with Dan and now omega is probably even more afraid.
- Let’s go home… - he took Dan’s hand and now really cautiously lead him to Lester’s penthouse.
- Wait here for me, I’m gonna come right back. - he said with said voice leaving omega in the kitchen. Dan needed something to wear, something clean and soft, to make him feel safer. Phil in the most sincere dreams couldn’t even think about what he saw, when he came back to the kitchen.
- Don't come near me! - his sweet omega was screaming profusely, standing in the middle of the room, with knife aiming at Phil.
- Dan, what? - alpha was in shock. Why, what’s going on?
- Don't even try to touch me… - Boy was trembling with fear, but firmly holding his weapon. Phil was the same, just like them. Awful and sneaky alpha. Dan almost believed that he was different, that he was caring, a good friend… But it all was a fucking game, some kind of fetish. Liar.
Phil took few subtle steps to him.
- Dan, please. I will not hurt you… - he whispered holdings his hand up, to show that everything is alright, no-one will hurt anybody.
- Fuck you! I’m clearly your omega and you can do whatever you want, just like you said! - he screamed Lester’s word, from no more that twenty minutes before. Oh god. Dan thought he will take him, mark him, scent him, make him his without consent. Phil eyes went big. No no, it wasn't like that. To alpha’s terror now knife was aiming into Dan’s belly. Boy was smart, there was no chance to win this if man attacked.
- Don't come closer, don't please… - now omega was crying weakly digging blade in his abdomen, not cutting skin yet. He couldn't take it, not anymore. Phil betrayed his trust, but Dan still liked him. He never liked anyone before, he never had a friend like this. Ha couldn’t take it, if Phil will hurt him.
- Daniel, stop it. Put knife on the worktop. - Phil hadn't have choice and used his alpha voice. This sweet doe eyed omega listened, of course - he had to obey. Right after that, Phil grabbed his husband and hold him in strong embrace. Oh god, it was so close to tragedy, what if Dan killed himself?
Omega was crying, not in fear anymore, but confusion. Today was too much for him, being betrayed, then put in the room full of strangers almost naked… He didn't even see that many people at once!
- I’m so sorry sir, I’m so sorry… - he was mumbling into Phil’s shirt. Even if he didn't like it, alpha's scent was soothing. Black haired man shushed him and kissed top on his head. God, its too much emotions for one day.
- Listen, I will never hurt you, I will never do something you are uncomfortable with. I’ m so sorry for today. - he mumbled into his head. Dan is safe right now, it’s the most important thing. Of course Phil fucked up, but it needed to be done. To omega’s surprise Phil kneeled in front of him.
- I’m hoping you will forgive me and trust again. - he whispered delicately hugging boy’s legs, being really cautious to not touch with his head front of Dan’s underwear.
Omega couldn't comprehend what is going on. Alpha is kneeling before him? Oh god, if anybody will see this, Phil would be stoke off in alphas circle. God, brown haired boy was so confused.
- You don’t… want to… take me? - he mumbled looking down at Phil. He said he don't want to hurt him, so he will not. And Dan don't want to be touched like that, probably never.
- If you don't want me to, no. We are friends, remember. - Phil was now looking at him with affection. Of course he wants to take him. Omega smelled so strongly, so erotic and was standing before him almost naked - but he is not a rapist. Everything will be alright, they will be happy. He is sure.
- Yeah, Dan. Friends, best friends. I promise. - Phil took his hand and hooked theirs little fingers with his, in kids manner. Omega was in too big shock to do something else, than nodded delicately.
After that Phil profusely described Dan how they relationship will work. As said they will be friends, not husbands right now. If omega would like them to be romantically involved in the future he will be more than happy, but Dan should feel safe and comfortable.
- And please, don't ever try to hurt yourself. I couldn’t live with the knowledge its because of me. - he murmured gently patting brown haired boy on his head. Omega still didn't have new clothes, but old Phil’s sweats worked just fine. They were too big, of course - but in alphas opinion boy looked even cuter in bigger size than in his usual tight shorts and as quite normal visibly felt safer, even putting his hands in sweater paws.
- You must be tired, goodnight Dan. - Phil kissed omega on the forehead and got up to leave quest bedroom. There was to much to assume that young Howell will like to sleep with him, even if Phil was wanting to feel his heat on so badly.
- Friends… - he heard standing almost near the exit. Dan was tucked safely in the bed, but still was looking at him with this big curious and wary eyes.
- Yeah, best friends. - he breathed while leaving.
