Chapter 10

A quiet hum of grounders vivacious chatting and servants setting out plates of food could be heard from beyond the doors Lexa stood in front of holding her omega.

"Are you ready to once again be In Front of the coalition?" Lexa asked the omega who rested In her arms.

"Yes my Heda, I'm ready." Clarke nodded confident but anxious.

The moment that Lexa pushed open the door the whole room went silent as each alpha, omega , and beta's eyes snapped to their commander and the weak woman resting in her arms. Titus quickly but hesitantly scurried to Lexa's side. "Lexa , what's wrong?" Titus asked worried she would seem weak.

"My omega collapsed the moment everyone left the coalition meeting hall, she is dehydrated, please retrieve us some water." Lexa requested.

"Yes my heda." Titus bowed before running off to grab his commander the water she had requested.

Lexa them hastily made her way to her place at the head of the table. "Now we feast!" Lexa echoed her words from earlier. At Lexa's joyus proclamation the whole dining hall immediately returned to their lively chatter.

Lexa sat down and relaxed allowing all the tension of the ceremony to leave her body as she wrapped her arms around the omega protectively. "Is everything ok Heda?" Clarke checked in.

"It's just been a long day." Lexa lied.

" Ok my heda. As long as my alpha is ok." Clarke replied subtly aware of Lexa's lie. Clarke only knew that Lexa was anxious about something, but she wasn't sure what it was , and Clarke figured that if her alpha didn't want to talk about it that it was advisable to just pretend she believed Lexa and address it later. Clarke also curled up smaller on Lexa's lap attempting to comfort the distraught alpha.

"Hehe." Lexa giggled and relaxed significantly.

"What my alpha?" Clarke questioned.

"It's me who is supposed to be comforting you." Lexa whispered into Clarke's ear and then kissed at the omega's neck.

"Well too bad, I can comfort you too." Clarke replied with only a hint of defiance.

"Watch your tone little girl, I won't hesitate to spank you silly and refuse to let you touch yourself." Lexa paused. "Or better yet I could force you to play with yourself in front of the whole coalition." Lexa teased interested to see how her omega liked the threat of being forced to play with herself.

Clarke's eyes snapped to Lexa as they glassed over and her irises disappeared into pupils growing with need. She then failed to form words as her body went through the motions of speaking, however no audible sounds escaped her lips as she pleaded with the alpha to allow her to satiate the burn growing between her thighs.

Lexa's smile only grew as she pretended she couldn't read the look Clarke's wore printed in boldface letters.

"Here is your water My heda!" Titus interrupted the growing sexual tension between the two girls placing two large bottles of water by Lexa's plate on the table before scurrying off again obviously frustrated and busy.

"Here Clarke drink , you will need it." Lexa taunted with a wicked smile as she placed the water bottle against Clarke's dry lips.

Clarke immediately began drinking like it she was timed, and she went to grab at the bottle only to have her hands swatted out of the way. " You remember the rules, you aren't to touch the food, I will feed you." Lexa scolded earning what felt to her like a symphony of moans from the omega in her lap.

"Thank you my Heda." Clarke thanked as Lexa pulled the emptied bottle away from her lips.

"Anything for my omega." Lexa comforted before catching her omega's perfect lips with her own.

Clarke immediately parted her mouth for the alpha to explore her, and explore Lexa did. Clarke soon found herself uncontrollably grinding herself against Lexa's growing cock wantonly as Lexa continued to taste the inside of Clarke's mouth endlessly. "Mhmm I don't think I will make it through the meal." Clarke smiled embarrassed as she pulled away from the kiss.

"You will have to." Lexa smiled. "But it will be ok , you will be preoccupied with the meal." Lexa comforted as her eyes sought out and followed the largest plate in the room which was reserved for her and her omega.

"But Le-" Clarke caught herself. "My heda. I-i want you so bad!" Clarke whined as she shifted her hips so that she sat perfectly upon Lexa pushing Lexa's almost fully erect member directly against her hungry opening.

"Watch yourself." Lexa warned bucking her hips forward teasingly.

"Ohh!" Clarke collapsed against her alpha craving more and more contact with the powerful woman.

"Mhmm i love it when you are so weak and helpless in need of me like that." Lexa teased into Clarke's ear, only adding to Clarke's need.

"Please my Heda!" Clarke requested.

"No." Lexa's firm words were perfectly punctuated by the clang of a heavy plate being placed in front of them. "See our food is here!" Lexa smiled sitting up up straight and accidentally pushing herself even further against Clarke's slit through their clothing.

"Mhmm it looks so good!" Clarke smiled as she went to touch the food , but remembered that she wasn't supposed to.

"Good girl." Lexa praised Clarke's restraint. "What would you like to try first.

Clarke surveyed the plate before looking around to see what everyone else had eaten so far , but no one's plates has been touched, they all say immaculate in front of the other clan leaders and their seconds. Clarke then noticed that many of their eyes rested in the direction of her and her alpha. "Lexa, why haven't they eaten , and why are they staring?" Clarke asked anxiety growing within her chest.

"They are waiting for the commander's omega to take the first bite , then the commander the second, and then they will proceed with their meal." Lexa explained.

"Oh." Clarke blushed. "Umm can I have a bite of the fruit?" Clarke requested hesitant, and unsure.

"Of course my girl." Lexa picked out the most alluring piece of mango that rested on the plate and placed it gently on the omega's tongue.

"Mhmm fuck it's so sweet." Clarke smiled having never had fresh mango before.

"I'm glad you like it my girl." Lexa kissed at Clarke's forehead before taking a bite of steak for herself.

The room immediately grew louder as the coalition began eating their own meals and speaking of louder to be heard over the ambient chatting. Lexa picked the next bite for Clarke herself from the portion of her plate that contained fine cheeses. "Try this." Lexa instructed.

"Mhmm that's good." Clarke hummed happily before nuzzling herself against Lexa's chest.

"Good girl." Lexa smiled happy as she ran her fingers through Clarke's long blonde hair.

"M-m-my Heda!" A young nervous boy no older than. Seventeen hidden behind hair covered his face bowed in front of Lexa.

"Yes?" Lexa questioned holding the stern facade of a leader.

"I-i I challenged you my Heda! B-bu-but t-think was before… before I knew that the mighty Wanheda bowed to you in submission. I deeply regret my over eagerness. And my clan leader has explained to me how imbecilic an idea it was to challenge you my Heda." The boy stanmeted.

Lexa grabbed the boy bt the hair that hung down from his face, lifting his head to force him to see her. "You are but a child, I would not take your life unless you forced me to. If you wish to risend your challenge you may." Lexa spoke condescendingly but with a subtle forgiveness and understanding of the young boy's mistakes.

"Thank you my Heda." The boy nodded as Lexa released his hair and he scurried back to his seat at the table.

"Thank God." Clarke cooed holding tight to Lexa.

"What is it hodnes?" Lexa asked returning to stroking her hands through Clarke's hair.

"Not that I'm actually worried he could defeat my strong alpha, but I am relieved that there is one less person who wishes you dead." Clarke explained.

"I will admit it is somewhat of a relief to me too." Lexa admitted.

"Good, you shouldn't have to carry the weight of the world on your shoulders like that." Clarke smiled as she rubbed her cheek against Lexa's chest.

"Mhmm these aren't things my omega should worry about." Lexa soothed. "Here have some more food." Lexa offered taking a piece of meat and placing it in front of Clarke's mouth.

"Mhmm thank you." Clarke thanked after she swoled the tender morsel.

Clarke hoped that there would be a second stranger to approach her and Lexa just like the first boy , but no one else approached. Instead the joys coalition continued feasting and chattering amongst themselves as Clarke and Lexa ate slowly. As the food on their plate dwindled so too did the ambient noise of the room as the grounder leaders became full and tired satiated by their meals. After a while a pair of friendly faces appeared. "Octavia! Raven!" Clarke smiled at the sight of her friends.

"I see someone took up the bond!" Octavia smiled and gave Lexa a playful nudge.

"How was it?" Raven smiled with excitement as she asked Clarke.

"Yes , yes, we bonded." Lexa blushed at the fellow alpha's tease.

"It was perfect!" Clarke smiled to herself as she shrunk into Lexa's lap.

"Good." Raven smiled. "Some of the other omegas and I are hanging out together while our alpha's continue the Coalition meeting, you are welcome to rest and relax with us if you want?" Raven offered.

Clarke could immediately feel Lexa tense below her.

"The omegas are heading there without the alphas?" Lexa questioned.

"Yeah , Indra informed me there was a follow up meeting with only the clan leaders and their seconds." Octavia answered

"Lexa what's wrong?" Clarke asked worried by the flurry of mixed anxieties building up within Lexa and overflowing into her through the bond as she wrapped her arms around the alpha's neck.

The whole coalition went silent at Clarke's defiance of calling the commander by her name. There was no way to avoid it now , either Lexa had to punish her omega or she would seem weaker than ever in front of the coalition , and now was the worst time , Lexa knew there was more dissension brewing in the ranks, she hadn't called for the supplemental meeting of the coalition, and certainly not one that didn't allow the clan leaders omegas. Before Clarke could even process the silence or what had gone wrong she had been flipped over , her ass hung out over the arm of the chair where the inside of her knees rested only seconds earlier. "You know the rules Clarke!" Lexa slammed her hand down , full of remorse as she did. Clarke had endured far more than enough today, and Lexa didn't want to force her to endure more but she had no other options if she wanted to maintain the tenuous peace within the clans. "You will learn to be a good girl!" Lexa slammed her hand down on Clarke's ass again. Clarke could feel how much Lexa hurt at her own actions. Clarke could deal with the pain from her punishment, Lexa was being restrained enough that if it hadn't been paired with the sense of Lexa's unbearable guilt the spanking would have been delightful. Clarke wanted to tell Lexa that it was ok, that Lexa didn't have to worry but she suspected that if she spoke out of turn it would only make things worse. Lexa slammed her hand down once again , harder but not too hard. "Three ought to be enough, now will you be an obedient slave?" Lexa questioned.

"Yes my heda , I am sorry, it was an accident." Clarke apologized.

"Good!" Lexa breathed a sigh of relief and hoped silently that Clarke didn't hate her. If Lexa hadn't been so wrapped up in her own guilt and anxiety she would have felt that her omega was giving off every scent and emotion she could to attempt to calm her alpha and alleviate the stressors that we're driving Lexa up a wall of worry.

"My heda." Clarke whispered attempting to get the attention of the alpha.

"Clarke I'm sorry , I have to go." Lexa dismissed as she placed Clarke's down next to her chair where she had a similar mat to the one by her throne.

"My Heda!" Clarke argued.

"Not now Clarke." Lexa spat the angry words.

"I need my alpha!" Clarke lied and purposefully collapsed into her mat in order to force Lexa to snap out of whatever it was that was blinding her to Clarke's each and every attempt to call out to her through their bond.

"Clarke!" Lexa yelled worriedly picking up the omega in her arms.

"Good you finally heard me." Clarke whispered into Lexa's ear relieved. "It's ok, I love you, and I am fine, whatever is wrong don't worry." Clarke comforted.

Lexa relaxed slightly. "Thank you my beloved omega. But I really must go." Lexa thanked with a gentle kiss before heading off to speak to Titus.

"Is everything alright?" Octavia asked Clarke worriedly as the whole show died down and the grounders returned to eating and talking.

"I'm not sure." Clarke answered anxiety clear on her face.

"I must talk with Indra." Octavia noted austerely. "Raven , insure Clarke goes along with the rest of the omegas while the coalition meets." Octavia ordered heading off to speak with Indra.

"Raven what's going on?" Clarke asked confused as she sunk into the mat that must have also been made of Lexa's pillows and t-shirts because it smelled more comforting than Clarke could imagine.

"I'm not sure, but I think it's best we do as Octavia asked and head off to the room designated for omegas during wartime assemblies." Raven urged pulling at Clarke's arm.

"W-wartime assemblies?" Clarke stammered holding tight to the mat that rested under her.

"Clarke the other omegas are heading out, and some of the alpha's are heading back to the meeting hall. We really should go." Raven urged again.

"I don't wanna leave this spot! It smells like my alpha!" Clarke argued upset sniffing at her mat , craving Lexa's scent.

"Then take the damn mat with you, Octavia ordered me to take you with the rest of the omahas , so I need you to come with me." Raven insisted looking around at the room that emptied slowly.

"I, it lifts up!" Clarke said surprised as she picked the mat up , readying to head off with Raven.

"Of course it does , omegas use them to begin their nest." Raven explained.

"Nest?" Clarke questioned lost and feeling like she was falling behind.

"I can explain it to you later. But come on!" Raven insisted again growing more and more frantic.

"Raven what's going on, why are you so anxious! What I'd going on!" Clarke stopped her friend and inquired scared.

"Something is going on, Lexa didn't know that there was a second meeting today, we should hurry to gather with the rest of the omega's." Raven informed.

"O-ok." Clarke replied as she stood up only to be caught by an overwhelming sense of dread shooting through her bond. "Something is very wrong."
