CHAPTER 25: _SIDE MISSION: GET LAID

Elian’s POV

*****

"What is the meaning of this?" Lucian growled when he finally returned to his senses, his gaze locked on Elian first before trailing to Beta Axel.

He was fully clothed now, wearing a regal black blazer that exposed parts of his upper chest. He wore a silver necklace with a wolf fang symbol that glistened under the light of the chandeliers above them.

"It’s exactly what it looks like, Alpha Prince." Axel finally withdrew slightly from Elian, leaving the latter struggling to catch his breath again.

The Beta’s slight distance caused the heat behind his navel to spike again, this time swirling like he was about to have explosive diarrhoea.

[WARNING: Proximity to the host’s two dominant mates has increased the time frame of the heat cycle. Symptoms will most definitely begin increasing.]

Elian gritted his teeth, struggling to focus his gaze on Beta Axel and Lucian who were now face to face with each other.

"Oh, so now you’re fucking him any chance you get?" Lucian scoffed out of nowhere, his eyes glinting with held-back rage. "Well done. Should I get you a medal for—"

"We only kissed." Axel retorted plainly, tilting his head. "And I never complained when you stole his first kiss without his consent. So why should you complain if I decide I want to be intimate with MY mate?"

"OUR mate." Lucian snarled, taking a step forward until it felt like the two men were going to kiss.

Seeing them in such close proximity, breathing down each other’s faces only made Elian’s erection harder with arousal.

"Crap..." He cursed, grabbing his dick and turning away from them, staring at the window behind him.

[Aw, come on. Don’t you want to see the view?]

Elian scrunched his face, his jaw clenching. He felt Axel and Lucian staring at his back now.

It seemed they finally noticed his struggle.

"Wait a damn minute..." Lucian sniffed, his voice thickening with something primal. "He’s in heat."

Shit, shit, shit...

Elian closed his eyes, taking in deep breaths as his gaze trailed off to his bed.

"He’s in heat so you decided to come in here and use the opportunity, eh?" Lucian sniggered at Axel who was quick to put him in his place.

"I only came here to check up on him after your little stunt at the training hall. I didn’t expect that he’d be experiencing his first heat." Axel snapped. "Besides, what’s it to you? You rejected him for the moon’s sake!"

"And he’s still my mate, isn’t he?"

"Guys!" Elian groaned, placing his right hand on his chest as he turned to face them again.

This time, he couldn’t resist both their scents within such proximity. Axel’s biceps seemed like they were calling him to take a little bite and Lucian’s eyes were already trailing his body with desire.

[ERROR: System struggling to process the stats of three hot men in a room. Please stand by for more accurate readings.]

Elian could barely register the system’s voice as he staggered toward Lucian and Axel, who both seemed like they were at their wits’ end.

"P–Please..." Elian ended up blurting, getting to them despite Axel’s attempt to look away from him.

He grabbed Axel’s arm and leaned against Lucian.

The heat spreading behind his belly was unbearable at this point and he felt like he was going to die.

[First heats are usually unbearable and you can either get these two hunks to "help you out". Or you can lock yourself in your room and avoid any interaction with dominant wolves until it subsides.]

Elian’s breathing was raspy as his gaze went from Lucian to Axel slowly. The former had his silver eyes locked on him, his right hand slowly going to his arm.

As for the latter, he showed more restraint now, shaking his head. "Elian, you’re vulnerable right now."

Obviously.

"Yes, I am." Elian croaked, managing to straighten his spine as he placed his hands on both men.

His erection was still sticking out, but at this point, he was tired of attempting to push it back into his pants. He had these two men in front of him, and all he could think about... Was them.

"I’m all yours..." Elian added, plastering a smile on his face.

[Goddess, you’re worse than a drunk prostitute who sniffed some moon dust.]

Axel grabbed his wrist just then, causing Elian to gasp before biting his bottom lip.

"You’re disoriented. In heat. Are you... Are you sure you want this...?" Axel asked, his eyes glinting with worry.

Elian tried keeping the smile on his face but then that sharp heat behind his stomach came again, this time like a gut punch. He subconsciously launched himself at Lucian who held him firmly, remaining silent.

The Alpha Prince stared at Elian calmly. Too calmly.

It was as if he were weighing options on how to carry on with the Omega in his hands. But Elian could give the hot Douchebag a good hint.

[Prince Lucian’s seduction meter just spiked from 50% to 52... 53... 54...]

Elian lowered his head, his gaze landing on the Alpha Prince’s pants. His dick bulged underneath, poking at him and causing him to chuckle.

"Elian... You need to take a seat." Axel tried grabbing him from Lucian, but the latter jolted all of a sudden, causing a soft moan to escape his lips.

[I have a feeling you’ll regret most of your reactions right now when I play them back for you later.]

Wait, the system could record events?

"You think this is funny? You think all of this is some game?" Lucian asked coldly, his hot breath hitting Elian’s face.

Elian swallowed, attempting to raise his hand to clean his sweat. But then his right hand fell on Lucian’s bulge, causing the latter’s eyes to widen.

"Well, I think THIS is funny," Elian whispered, gripping the royal dick ever so slightly until he felt the tremors going through the Alpha Prince. "This and the fact that you were stroking it while thinking about me. Weren’t you?"

Lucian stiffened, his face devolving into a scowl.

He took several steps back, letting go of Elian like he’d just seen a ghost. That caused the latter to fall but then Axel caught him right on time again.

"I don’t know what you’re talking about." Lucian pretended to be clueless, clearing his throat and straightening his blazer. "And Beta Axel... I came here to inform you that the war council’s gathered. Darklands are clashing with Arcadia again. You’re needed now."

Elian furrowed his eyebrows as Axel helped him to his feet before turning to face Lucian.

"War council? Who are we going to war with?"

Lucian’s breathing was still ragged, and he was still hard, but he tried focusing, shifting his gaze away from Elian, who rested his head on Axel’s shoulder.

"We don’t know yet. But the dark lands and Arcadia’s scuffles are becoming too... Violent." Lucian explained before sighing. "Just dress up and come there now. The Gamma, Delta and generals are already present."

Elian blinked, managing to gain back some sanity.

’How long is this shit going to last?’ he asked the system, which loaded a bar before showing a timer.

[Estimated time for end of first heat: One hour.]

One hour?!

He wasn’t even sure if he could survive till then.

"And you..." Lucian spoke out to Elian, causing him to raise his head. "Keep yourself locked in this room. If any man blinks at you, I’ll have their head and place it on your bed."

Without another word, he turned around, his gaze lingering on Elian and Axel for a second too long before he grunted and walked out of the room.

Elian’s face flushed as Axel finally took a few steps away from him, turning to stand in front of him.

"Do you really have to... Go?" Elian asked, placing his right hand on Axel’s cheek.

The latter wrapped his hand around his wrist with a wry smile. "Duty calls. Not to mention, I can’t bear the thought of claiming you with the Alpha Prince. Our first time..."

He paused, leaning in just a bit before whispering. "... Will be just the two of us. And sooner than you might expect."

Elian blinked as Axel winked, before suddenly wrapping his hand gently around his erection. He helped him shove the damn thing back into his pants, zipping it up and patting it gently.

With that, Axel turned and walked away, closing the door behind him with a soft bang.

[DING... Host’s heat is slowly subsiding but now he has a bad case of blue balls.]

[New side mission unlocked: Get laid by one of your mates tonight.]

Elian’s eyes widened as he brushed his right hand down his face. "Are you fucking kidding me? I had both of them in the same room with my dick sticking out like a beacon."

[Yet you had to ruin the tension with your big mouth.]

Elian groaned, turning around and walking until he got to his bed which he crashed on.

[Should I play back your interaction with your mates or—]

"Fuck no!" Elian snapped but then took in deep breaths, closing his eyes. "Just... Show me that map of Evaros. Something’s happening on the continent that I don’t know about."
