He sat in the corner of the cage, shaking against the cold metal bars. He heard the whimpers, whines, crying, of all of the other omegas around him. His blue eyes searched frantically around the dark room they were in. He had no clothes on, wore a collar around his neck. It was so tight on him that he could barely even breathe. He shivered, the cold air hitting his skin.

A door was suddenly slammed opened. The young omega jumped, whimpering even louder, tears falling down his face. A hand touched his shoulder. He looked up, and stared into the eyes of a pale skinned, ravened haired female omega. She wanted to try and calm the frightened boy. His whimpering ceased, feeling her warm touch on his skin. She smiled at him, nodding her head. The boy may have been a teen, but he acted more like a young pup.

"Silence you stupid omegas!" The man, who was a beta, walking amongst the cages filled with many omegas screamed. His name was Curtis Axel. He walked over to the raven haired omega's cage, and smirked. "251, you're next to be sold."

He pulled out a set of keys from his pocket, bent down, and unlocked the cage. "Now, don't bite me. You should be happy. You'll be sold to a lucky alpha today."

The blonde/sandy brown haired omega boy in the other cage, started whimpering again. "Be quiet! You stupid pup!" He kicked at the omega inside the cage. He reached inside, grabbing him by his hair. "You'll be next 252. I can't wait until we're rid of you. I have had enough of your whimpering!"

"Curtis! Leave those omegas alone, and bring 251 out. Now!" The voice of Curtis's boss, Heath Slater, called out from outside.

Curtis growled, letting go of the omega's hair. "I'll deal with you after we've sold 251." He slapped the omega across the face. He put the leash on the raven haired one, and left.

The young omega pulled his knees up to his chest, burying his face in them. He was so scared of what would happen to him, once he was sold to an alpha. He knew what would happen. Rape, abuse, starvation, loneliness...He shook in fear, wishing for this nightmare to end.

"Okay, I know where we are. I'm going to get us back to your place Roman."

"Face it, Seth. We're lost."

"No we're not! We're...um..." The two toned omega man, Seth Rollins sighed, resting his head on the stirring wheel as they came to a red light. "Okay, I'll admit it. We're lost."

"I let you drive my car for one second, one second, and you get us lost." The alpha, Roman Reigns, took a look around the neighborhood they were in, seeing how bad it was. "And you got us in the worst neighborhood in this city."

"You got a GPS somewhere in here right?"

"I do, but its dead." They passed by a man, who was screaming at another guy, and it looked like he was holding a gun in his hands. "We're going to die."

"We're not going to die."

"Or one of us will. It'll probably be me. If I die today, I am haunting your ass Seth."

"Um, no. One, that's creepy. I don't need your ghost following and watching me all the time. Two, I don't need you watching me and Finn have sex."

Roman laughed, shaking his head. "Trust me Seth. I don't want to watch you two have sex."

The two friends bickered back and forth. They have been best friends since after Roman met him through his new family, the Mcmahons. Roman's mother married Vince Mcmahon, a few years after Roman graduated from high school. He worked for their family business, World Wide Entertainment Markets. He didn't really know much about the business, except that they did modeling shoots, and made films. He helped sold some of these films, and photo galleries by hosting them up on their online website.

Roman met Seth Rollins through their business. He used to work for them, until he found out that they were only using him, and didn't like that he was bonded to another male. His alpha, Finn Balor. Seth never cared for the Mcmahons after that. In fact, he hated them now. He would always beg Roman to leave them, and move back to Hawaii to be with his real family. But Roman couldn't find it in himself to leave them. Sure, they were a bit stuck up, but he still cared for them, and they helped him make enough money to provide for himself and his family back in Hawaii.

As they drove further downtown, Roman noticed outside that there was a huge crowd gathered around a stage a few streets ahead. They got closer, and he noticed the signs, and omegas, who looked liked they had been abused, starved, and raped. Roman frowned, not wanting to be here. It brought back memories for him that he had kept hidden away for so long...

"Seth...We need to get out of here..."

"R-Roman...Where are we? What is going on?"

"What does it look like? We're at an omega market Seth!"

"Oh shit...I've never been to one before..."

"Trust me, you don't want to be here."

Seth parked the car on the side of the road. He unbuckled his seat belt, opened the door, and stepped outside.

"Seth! Get back here! What are you doing?" Roman got of the car, going after his friend.

"All these omegas...What do you think is going to happen to them?"

"What do you think? Alphas bought them. They're going to use them to breed them, treat them like slaves, or kill them.

""T-that's horrible!"

Roman was about to speak, but a man's voice rang out through a microphone. "I now bring out 251! A beautiful female omega."

The two friends looked up, seeing the raven haired omega. She didn't look scared at all. It seemed as though she had accepted her fate.

"She is of age, about 22 years old. Beautiful pale skin. Black hair that is very soft. Pretty eyes. I know, she is a beauty isn't she? Now, I'll start the bid at $1000. Do I have $1500? Yes? $2000? Yes?"

The guy went on, until the highest bid was placed. The raven haired omega was finally bought, at the price of $75,000. An alpha female, with flaming red hair had bought her. Her name was Becky Lynch. Roman recognized her as one of the women who worked for Natalya, someone who helped female omegas. She went up onto the stage to collect the omega. She growled at Becky, backing away from her. Becky bent down, whispering into the omega's ear. She seemed to have understood what Becky said, because she instantly calmed down.

"Roman."

"What?"

"We...We should buy an omega!"

"Are you crazy Seth?"

"No, I'm not joking. We should buy one that way so we can help he or she. We would be doing a good deed for them."

"Seth, we can't..."

"Why not?"

"I-I just can't, okay?" Roman said, looking away from him.

"No, tell me why we can't help an omega?"

"Seth! My mate was kidnapped!" As soon as the words came out, Roman clapped a hand over his mouth, realizing what he had just said.

"You...You had a mate?"

"We weren't exactly mated at the time before he was kidnapped, but I knew that he was my mate the whole time that I knew him."

"How long ago was this?"

"10 years ago. I knew him when we were kids. He lived with his mother, but she was hardly ever there for him. He stayed with me and my family most of the time. He was taken away from me when he was 7 years old. I made a mistake by letting him walk to his house by himself. I thought he would be alright, but the next thing I know I heard him screaming. I rush over to his street, and I see him being carried away into a van. He was screaming...calling out my name...reaching for my hand...I ran as fast as I could. I tried to save him...but...it was in vain...I can still hear his screams Seth."

"But...How come no one came to help you? Wasn't there anyone else around?"

"It was winter, it was very cold outside. No one else was there..."

"Did you try to find him?"

"I tried. I tried everything I could to find him. But I never did. Didn't find no clues, evidence on where he could be..."

"Roman! What if he is here! He could be here at this market!"

"Seth...Its been so long since then...I can't feel his heartbeat anymore. I stopped hearing it after 8 years. I knew it in my heart, that he was dead. He is lost to me forever..." Roman said, his voice only a whisper, staring down at the ground as tears dared to fall from his eyes.

"Oh...I'm sorry..." Seth stepped closer to him, wrapping his arms around him, hugging him, trying to comfort him.

The omega looked up when he heard the door slam open. He started whimpering again, trying to get away from Curtis. "Come on 252! Be a good little pup!"

The omega only backed up some more, until he couldn't no further. Curtis grabbed him by his hair, throwing him to the ground. He hooked the leash onto his collar, and dragged the omega outside. He screamed, whimpered, trying to grab a hold of something, anything to hold onto.

Heath came backstage, hearing the omega screaming. "Ugh! I can't wait until he is sold! Hand him to me." He took the leash from Curtis. He grabbed the omega's face, forcing him to look up at him. "You don't want us to drug you now do you? You're getting sold tonight, so calm down." He let go of his face, and dragged him out onto the stage.

"Now sit. And stop your whimpering."He grabbed the microphone, speaking into it. "252, a young male omega. He is 16 years old, sandy brown hair, blue eyes, soft skin. He is quite a feisty little pup. There is one more thing, he has the mentality of a newborn pup. He may be a teen, but he doesn't act like it. Young and innocent." He said, while stroking the omega's hair, making him flinch. "Now, I'll start the bid at $20,000. Do I have $25,000? Yes?"

Seth comforted his best friend for a little while longer. He finally let go of Roman, after he had calmed down.

"Are you okay?" He asked, patting him on the back.

Roman nodded his head. "I'm fine. Lets leave, please?"

"Are you sure?

""Very sure. Come on, lets go. And I'm driving."

"What? You think I'll get us even more lost?"

"Yes. Now, come on."

"Alright." Seth sighed. He looked back at the stage, seeing that another omega was being sold. This one was a male, and he looked younger than the one from before. He could sense that the poor thing was very frightened, and looked to be shaking. He felt sorry for it. He knew that they couldn't leave him here. He grabbed Roman by his shoulder.

"Roman! We should help him!"

"Seth, no!"

"Please Roman! We must!"

Roman turned around. "Seth, I said..." He stopped speaking once a familiar scent filled his nostrils. It smelled of cinnamon, strawberries, the ocean, it smelled of home. It smelled like his mate. "It can't be...this is impossible...he is dead..."

He stared at the omega on the stage. He had the same colored hair, the same scent, the same eyes. It was him, his mate. He had finally found him at last.

"Roman, please. We have to help him." Seth pleaded with him.

"Mate..."

Seth gave him a confused look. "What?"

"Mate...Must protect, must save my mate."

"Wait! He's your mate?! Wait! Roman where are you going?! Get back here!"

Roman wasn't listening to him. He walked towards the stage, getting closer and closer to his mate. "I am here my love. We can finally be together again."

"The omega has been sold for $200,000!"

Roman growled, seeing an older alpha, coming up onto the stage to claim his mate. "No! I will not let them take you away from me again!"

"Wait! I would like to buy him!" He yelled up to the guy, who was about to hand over his mate to the other alpha.

"You are too late! You should have placed your bid long ago. Why don't you go take a seat over the-"

Roman cut him off. "I said I would like to buy him." He growled. He stepped between the other alpha, and this man. "I can offer you a higher price for him."

"Oh? Really now?"

"Yes, I'll give you $900,000 for him."

"Hmm...that's a very high price you're offering. Are you sure you want to buy him?"

"Yes, I am sure."

"Fine, we have a deal."

Curtis came out from backstage. "Heath, wait. We can't sell the omega to him! He should have placed the bid before this one did!"

"Shut up, Curtis! Can't you see how much money he is offering?" Heath pushed Curtis aside, taking the money from Roman. "The omega is now yours Mr..."

"Reigns. Roman Reigns."

"Mr. Reigns, the omega is now yours."

Roman looked down at his mate, who was still whimpering. The omega looked up at him, fearful of him. He leaned down, reaching out a hand towards him. "I have finally found you my mate..."

When his hand got closer, the omega growled, biting into it.

"Ah!" Roman yelped, pulling his hand back. He looked down at his hand it, seeing that it was covered in blood, and had bite marks on it.

"Oh. I almost forgot. You must be careful around this one. He's a very feisty little pup." Heath reached into his pocket, pulling out a syringe.

"N-no! Wait! I don't think that's really necessary..."

"Do you want him to bite you again Mr. Reigns?"

"No, but..."

"This will knock him out for a few hours. It won't do any harm to him." He grabbed the omega's arm, sticking the syringe into it. The omega let out a loud cry, that Roman couldn't stand to hear. He couldn't wait to get his mate out of here, take him home, where he would be safe.

After a few minutes, the drug began to take effect, and the omega went limp, going unconscious. "There, now he won't be able to give you any trouble."

Roman leaned back down, taking the leash off of the collar around the omega's neck. He scooped him up into his arms, carrying him bridal style.

"You sure you don't want any drugs to help keep him calm?!" He heard Heath calling out to him, but he just ignored him as he carried his mate through the crowd of other alphas. Growling at who dared came near him, to try and touch his mate."You're safe. No one will ever be able to hurt you again."

Seth pushed through the crowd, trying to find his friend. "Roman? Roman! Where are you?! Excuse me. Out of my way please. Hey! Don't you dare touch me or I'll have Finn tear you a new ass!" He growled at a nearby alpha. "Roman!"

"I'm right here, Seth. Calm down."

"Finally, I've found you. You could have waited for me you jerk." He noticed the omega Roman was carrying. "Whose that?"

"This is my mate, Seth. Come on, lets get out of here." He said, leading the way back to his car. Once they were finally out of the crowd, and made their way back to the car, Seth opened one of the back doors for him.

He laid the unconscious omega in the back seat. He took off his jacket, placing it over his naked form. He closed the door, and got into the car, along with Seth. He started up the car, and they drove away from the market. He needed to get his mate out of here, and back at his place.

Every now and then during the ride, he checked on his mate, to make sure he was okay. The omega stirred a little, whimpering in his sleep. When they were at a red light, Roman ran a comforting hand down his back.

"So...this is your mate?" Seth said, staring back at the unconscious omega.

"Yes, its him Seth. I can tell by his scent. I can also recognize his eyes. He may be older, but his eyes are still the same."

"I'm happy for you Roman. I can't believe that you've finally found him, after all these years."

"I can't believe it either, Seth." He said, wiping away some tears."

"So, I don't want to keep calling him your mate, or omega." Seth said, chuckling a bit. "Whats his name?"

Roman smiled. "Dean. Dean Ambrose."

It was the first time in years, that he had said that name.
