In silence, Alexis stared silently into the darkness of his room, he could only think of one thing, Luka.
In his head, he couldn't stop repeating to himself that the omega had been hit because of him, that because Alexis couldn't control himself, Luka's fiancé realized what they had both been doing, and decided to react that way. Alexis knew it wasn't right to think like that, that there was no way he should excuse Estephan for being a bad alpha and hurting Luka, but he couldn't help thinking that the younger boy might not have been hit if it hadn't been for Alexis.
What should he do then?
Alexis felt that his life was too intertwined with Luka's, and those bonds were growing stronger with each passing day as their two younger brothers finalized their engagement. What would happen in the future? The two of them would be family, and at Christmas parties or on some trip, Luka and Alexis would coincide again, both of them would end up seeing each other again
*** 5 years earlier ***With a sigh, Alexis hopped off the school bus, cursing between his teeth and looking very annoyed.Usually, Alexis never complained about having to go to some camp or meeting, since by going to those places he could free herself from going to school for a couple of days. But this camp was different, as it was happening in the middle of the school vacation, so it was interrupting Alexis' time off.But he couldn't complain, as he knew it was a punishment given by his parents, after all, he had done a lot of bad things in the last months, and so many that he couldn't even list them properly. And it was right to be punished, but knowing that didn't make Alexis happy."This is a shit" Alexis complained angrily, kicking a stone angrily, before starting to pace.Sighing with displeasure, Mikhail walked up to Alexis and put an arm around his shoulders, saying, "Come on... We've put up with your bad mood for the whole trip, can't you
*** 5 years earlier ***Alexis couldn't help himself, leading all the people in the city who had gone with him, and standing in the middle of the road like an idiot, Alexis had been stunned to see those golden eyes in the distance.Standing behind Alexis, all the other boys looked at each other in confusion, as no one understood why they were making that unnecessary slightly dramatic pause. And deciding to hurry the matter along, Nikolai broke formation and approached his cousin, looking at his puzzled and somewhat lost face."Alex?" Nikolai asked, feeling somewhat concerned about his cousin's attitude, "Come on, move forward, you're slowing us down..."Like a distant echo, Alexis could hear his cousin's words. But he couldn't remember where he was, much less who he was... His mind was somewhere else. Never in his whole life had he had a feeling like that, something so... Intense.For a moment, he felt stunned by the pheromones he could feel coming
*** 5 years earlier ***Closing his eyes, Alexis sniffed the air around him, unable to find that omega, but still looking for him.Three days had passed at the camp, and with sadness, Alexis soon realized that it would probably be much more complicated than he had thought at the beginning to be able to find that omega he saw at the opening of the camp. For even though all the alphas, omegas, and betas were together at the camp; it was very difficult for them to grant at the same time.As in any camp, everyone had activities planned, but they were separated by alphas and betas, and the omegas were kept in a remote location or doing a different activity. Alexis didn't know if the camp organizers separated them that way because they had the typical fear that the omegas would be attacked by alphas or betas, or because they considered them more delicate to do the activities that the others did.But whatever the real reason was, in the middle of that fake mixed
*** 5 years earlier ***Shortly after his encounter with the omega in the camp's dining room, Alexis didn't mention or talk about it again, not wanting to think again about that omega that had called his attention so much at the beginning.This caught Nikolai's attention, who did not understand how his cousin had lost the excitement of meeting that boy in such a... fast way. Since without any kind of explanation, Alexis refused to talk to him again about what had happened, pretending that in reality... He had never been interested in omega in the camp.And the real reason... was an embarrassment.Immediately after that embarrassing and ridiculous dining hall incident, which was witnessed by everyone who attended the camp, Luka became the target of ridicule and laughter from everyone who went to the camp. Luka was undoubtedly beautiful and came from a good family, but most of the people who attended the camp were young boys, who didn't pay much attention t
*** 5 years earlier ***Desperate, feeling his heart pounding so hard that his chest hurt, Luka ran with all his might out of his cabin. Everything had gone dark for a moment, and without thinking that someone could be bothering him or that it could have been a technical problem, Luka could only think of one thing: Ghosts.In all his innocence and fearing much of the forest, Luka could only reason that some supernatural being had wanted to harm him. So terrified, screaming, and very fearful, he ran away without any fixed direction, only wanting to get away from the thing that had attacked him while he was alone, miraculously hoping to meet Ivan or his older brother to protect him.But running into the forest without a fixed direction or knowing the direction in which he was running, Luka soon began to get lost, yet he did not stop running. As his fear of what had happened and the darkness of the forest increased, Luka ran even faster.Until in the middle
*** 5 years earlier ***Sitting on his own bed next to Alexis, Luka couldn't help but feel slightly embarrassed. He had nothing to invite the alpha to, not even a glass of water, so much of the hospitality, his parents had taught him, Luka wasn't being able to live up to.But Alexis didn't seem bothered about it, looking curiously at Luka's shared room, since he'd never been in an omega's cabin before."So you sleep here with your friends?" Alexis asked, breaking the silence that existed between the two.Luka didn't want to sound pretentious by mentioning Ivan as his servant, so he rapidly replied, "Yes, I sleep here with one of my friends.""The omegas' cabins are a bit smaller but more comfortable. I sleep with two of my friends and my cousin.""That looks like more fun...""No, Mikhail snores a lot, it's no fun."Hearing that answer, Luka couldn't help but laugh a little, as unintentionally, Alexis was very funny when he spo
*** 5 years earlier *** The days began to pass, and it was getting harder and harder for Luka. Every day at camp, he could only anxiously await the arrival of the night so he could meet Alexis, getting to the point that his nightly encounters had become the highlight of his activities at camp, leaving aside the rest of the things he did with the other omegas or with his friends. "This is so boring" Luka complained. Surprised, Ivan turned in his direction and asked, "Really? I thought you liked to do gardening work, my lord." Being in the camp greenhouses with the other omegas, tending to the plants on-site, an activity that had been designated to the other omegas. In the previous days since his arrival at the camp, Luka had loved those kinds of activities, such as taking care of the camp's plants or animals, as they were activities that didn't require too much effort, and Luka was not a person who liked much physical exertion. But that day, ap
*** 5 years earlier ***Surprised, Alexis felt how his lips joined Luka's in that longed-for but also dreaded kiss. During the first days that both had met, Alexis struggled not to behave indecently with that omega, as he didn't want to scare him, seeing Luka's so sweet and innocent appearance, Alexis tried his best to be extremely delicate with that little omega.But Luka had had enough of being treated like a delicate flower, he needed Alexis to hold him and soothe all the heat from his body. So seeking his own relief, it was Luka who now sought Alexis to kiss him, no longer able to hold back.Enjoying that very soft and sweet kiss, which Alexis had also wanted to give Luka long ago, the alpha made the grip on Luka's hips and waist firmer, holding him against his body just as tightly. Sighing at that intimate grip and touch, Luka closed his eyes and let himself do it, not wanting that kiss to end.Feeling like he was starting to lose control, having the
