Chapter 2

Reaching the door for the second time that night Bilbo sighed, resigning himself to his fate. Once the door was open he gave a shy, more like nervous, smile to another were-dwarf.

"Good afternoon, Balin at your service," The grey haired dwarf said with a bow.

Bilbo gave a slight insecure bow and responded, "Bilbo Baggins, at yours."

Spotting Dwalin's green cloak Balin smiled, "I see I am not the first to arrive, eh?"

Bilbo shook his head in the negative then questioned, "I'm guessing there will be more?"

With a small smile Balin just nodded. Turning he walked in the direction of the delicious smelling food. Catching sight of Dwalin on one side of the table, Balin smirk, "Well I didn't think my own brother would beat me here!"

In answer Dwalin stated lightly, "Well if you had followed me, rather than going through town you would have arrived with me." Smiling widely, Balin walked over and clapped him on the back. He watched as Dwalin stood then together they both slammed each other's foreheads together.

Standing outside the dining room Bilbo watched all this with a mouth in full agape. He was stunned, simply stunned! Was this normal dwarf tradition, slamming heads together? He hoped they did not expect him to do the same. Now, all he knew is that he had two violent betas in his home with more on the way. Just as these thoughts were starting to spiral through his head, the doorbell rang.

Picking his jaw up off the ground, Bilbo thanked Yavanna for the foresight in eating a big meal at luncheon. As well as the many biscuits at tea time, contemplating how many guests he would have in his home Bilbo, made towards the door. Hopefully Gandalf would be among them. Otherwise, he may have a few too many territorial disputes his poor home would be unable to cope with.

Opening the door he froze in near horror at the two young were-dwarves on his porch. The two boys tumbled in, with pretty much a bang. "Hello! I'm Kili," the dark haired one said proudly.

"And, I'm Fili!" The blonde said grinning mischievously. Both boys where complete opposites of each other. The blonde were-dwarf was by far an alpha in training. He was big and muscular, with eyes that had a small blue sparkle. His eyes were sky blue with a hint of seduction to them. While the dark haired one was smaller, with big dark chocolate eyes that showed all his emotions for the world to read. He was definitely an omega which calmed Bilbo down to have another omega in the house. Beta wolves were always more in control of themselves while around omega's. Especially omega's that were a part of their pack, these wolves were a definite part of the same pack! His nose never lies.

"Bilbo Baggins at your service." Bilbo said much easier than with the first two beta wolves.

Both boys smiled brightly then bounded off fallowing the smell of food. When, all of a sudden, the dark haired Kili turned around loudly proclaimed, "Nice to meet you, Mr. Boggins!"

Bilbo found himself chuckling and giving a smile to the young omega earning himself a dazzling smile, and a quick wave had the boy scampering after his, possible, brother. After resigning himself to door duty with a chair to sit on, and wait for whoever else to arrive. He just knew this would not be over until the true alpha arrived. Just getting comfortable the bell rang for the third time. Sitting up immediately he grabbed the handle, and opened the door with a smile.

This time there were three dwarves standing in front of his door. These three dwarves were definitely related; they each had red in their hair. Just in different shades.

The first dwarf gave a bow and said, "Dori at your service! These are my brothers." Pointing at the dwarf in the back with silvery-red hair that was spiked in the shape of a star, Dori stated, "this is Nori, and my youngest brother," nudging the smallest of the three with big hazel eyes and rich red hair, "Ori."

Nori and Ori both nodded and stated, "At your service." While their oldest brother smiled proudly.

Bilbo just nodded and smiled, "Wonderful to meet you. Please help yourself to dinner."

As soon as they were bustled away Bilbo headed back towards his chair by the door. Thinking of the three brothers, he knew the elder two were betas while the youngest was an omega. Dori had hazel eyes and dark red hair with more brown to both, while Ori had a dark forest green tint to his eyes. Nori's eyes were a beautiful light brown, nearly a caramel mocha mix. Altogether they were good looking brothers. Bilbo was still really thankful he had Kili and Ori in his house as well. Two omegas from the same pack was definatly better than just one. It was even better than absolutely no omega all.

After the three brothers he met Oin and Gloin. Both were betas, the main difference between the two was the fact of how much grey was in Oin's hair. It was just straight grey. While Gloin had light brown hair with light blue eyes, his brother's eyes were grey. To be honest Bilbo was unsure how old Oin was, but he definitely knew that he was extremely calm to be around.

The last three to arrive was Bifur, Bofur, and Bombur. Bifur had near black eyes with salt and pepper hair. While he was a beta, Bofur added a third omega into his home. Excluding himself of course. Bofur wore a ridiculous hat over his deep chocolate hair and rich big brown eyes. The thing that made him unique for and omega though was the fact that he smelled just as strong as a beta. It was a big surprise when Bombur came in last. He was a huge beta, not huge in Dwalin's muscular sense, he was huge in he ate just as much as hobbits do. Bombur had brown eyes that were similar to Bofur's eyes just slightly lighter in color, and cherry brown hair. All three brothers were overly friendly, and marched toward the smell of food.

Bilbo checked all the dishes and was happy to admit he had enough food for all the were-dwarves in his home. His only concern was the fact that their alpha was most certainly not among them. Dwalin was the closest were-dwarf this pack seemed to have, so he must be the second. But where was the alpha? They were obviously a pack, possibly the pack he smelled two days ago, but again where was their alpha?

Slowly each were-dwarf slowly fell silent, but Bilbo was too deep in thought to hear the decrease in sound. As the noise slowly drifted out of Bag End, Bilbo startled when the only noise that occurred was his bell. Surprised Bilbo glanced through the door into the dining area, where he saw 12 pairs of eyes staring at him with intense interest. Bilbo froze with a blush rising up to his cheeks. With an awkward cough and a shake he managed to get himself moving toward the door.

Reaching the door had Bilbo freezing for an entirely different reason. That reason was because of the thick, heavy presence that seemed to seep from the other side of the door. This was definitely the alpha. He could feel the power and control that he exude. In the shire there were alphas, but the main difference was due to the power they held. Bilbo was stuck trying to pull in a breath of air, while simultaneously open the door. With all of his own power he managed to squeak the door open to the most handsome of were-dwarves he had ever seen. Which was compared to the few he had just met, if he was being honest with himself, Gandalf had introduced him to were-elves and were-men, but these were his first were-dwarves. The alpha before him was in possession of dark black hair with the most startling blue eyes he has ever seen. Looking behind the alpha he saw a smirking Gandalf smoking lightly on his pipe.

"Well now Bilbo, my boy, are you just going to leave us on your front porch, or are you going to allow us to rest our weary feet?" Gandalf questioned much brighter than he probably should have.

"When you said a were-hobbit would be able to help us, I did not think you would have been meaning an omega." The stranger said with a sneer as he entered Bilbo's home.

Bilbo's jaw hit the floor faster than one of Gandalf's many firecrackers going off. With a glare of his own Bilbo quietly stated, "I had no notion of the rudeness I would be receiving from a guest that a friend was bringing otherwise I would be less inclined to allow any some-such visitor into my home." With a final glare at a shocked alpha, Bilbo turned to his longtime friend and exclaimed, "Gandalf, I thought you said I would have courteous guests in my home not a foul mouthed alpha that thinks he is king in this territory!"

With a bright cheery smile Gandalf nodded to the struck dumb alpha and quietly said, "I do apologize to you dear Bilbo, if I had known about the treatment I would have recommended someone else. Although you are by far the best qualified were-hobbit for this job I figured you would enjoy the hunt just as much as you once did."

With a huff Bilbo waved both of them into the dining area where each beta and omega greeted their alpha with bright smiles and slight grabs at his fur coat in a show of respect. Bilbo and Gandalf sat a small ways away in order to watch the exchange between members. While the alpha got comfortable between Dwalin and Fili, Bilbo leaned closer to Gandalf to get his attention.

"What in the world, have you all but dragged me into Gandalf?!" He slightly snarled.

Gandalf just smiled his secret smile and quite happily said, "If there was any other way of pulling you out of that shell of yours I would have done that, but seeing as you are very reluctant to part with it," Gandalf shrugged, "They will let you know what it is, they have need of you to do. For now just watch and wait while our dear Thorin pulls up his courage."

(x_x) /(-_-)\ (^,^)

Thorin was not impressed. No omega ever talked to him like that it was just unheard of! His presence usually scared them into doing as he said just to get away, but this little omega actually talked back to him!

He leaned over to Dwalin in order to growl, "What do you make of this omega?"

Dwalin just smirked as he glanced over at the little omega chatting with Gandalf in their little corner, "Well for starters he is a cutie!" When Thorin gave a deep growl Dwalin's smirk widened into a full out grin, "He is very watchful, and I would eat both my axes if he has not pegged each of us in the proper pecking order. I would bet he even knows about, Fili being your heir."

At this Thorin raised his eyebrow and looked at the now huffing omega next to Gandalf. He was in agreement with Dwalin this omega was adorable, but he would kiss his second before admitting it to anyone.

"Are you sure he is that sharp?" He questioned instead.

Dwalin just nodded seriously, "He is."

With a quick nod Thorin stated, "Alright we will give him a shot." With that he continued eating and shooting covert glances at the golden haired, green-eyed beauty across the room.
