Chapter One
"Father, what is the meaning of this?" The Prince Regent of Brilynnev asked.
"It is my boy's coming of age day, you're both officially men, it is only fitting that you get a gift that shows as much," the King replied and led the twin princes through the great oak doors into the Throne Room.
The two princes, Caspian and Nikolai, were officially eighteen on this day. Caspian, the elder of the two, was the crown prince. One day when their father would pass, he would take the throne. Caspian was a gentleman in many ways, although he was infamous for his short temper. At times he could be cruel and domineering.
Nikolai, on the other hand, was a quiet man. He stuck to himself often, preferring to read in his private study than to engage in public affairs.
And like all royal men, they were of course both Alpha Males.
As the three strode into the impressive chamber their attention settled on two forms kneeling on the ground. The two people had their blonde heads bowed, eyes on the polished floor. Their hands and feet were chained and they wore no clothes. Immediately Nikolai felt sick to his stomach. Slaves.
Caspian looked unimpressed. "What is this?"
"Twin Omegas. Twin male Omegas. Very rare and very expensive, but I would only accept the best for my boys." He turned his gaze on the second set of twins. "Stand," he barked. Unable to resist the alpha command, they rose to their feet. "When these two presented as Omegas, their father kept them well sheltered and began their training. He knew they would sell at a high price, but he kept them hidden until the time was right."
Caspian approached the Omegas. He inspected their features which were soft and smooth, no blemishes to be seen. Their bodies were lean and muscled but not too bulky. They both had blonde hair that curled at their nape. The one on the left flinched as Caspian ran his fingers through it.
"Are you scared, Omega?" He whispered in his ear and tugged roughly on his hair, yanking his head back. Caspian eyed the males neck, checking for mating bites. When he saw there weren't any he leaned in and brushed his lips against the sensitive scent gland. The Omega shivered and released a pleasantly scented pheromone. Whether the Omega actually enjoyed the attention was uncertain, the flush of pheromones and wet slick that produced at his core was thanks to biology. Being an Omega, his body reacted to his Alpha.
Caspian chuckled as he noticed the slick sliding down his legs. "The bitch is eager to be bred it seems." He turned back towards the King. "I appreciate the gift, Father, it will be used well."
"Good, I do not wish my money to go to waste. And your thoughts, Nikolai?"
The younger twin bowed his head respectfully. He had not approached the Omegas yet. Truly, the idea of a slave didn't appeal to him but he could not voice such things. "I am pleased, Father."
"Perfect. Well, my boy's, pick your bitch. Caspian, you first."
Caspian eyes both of the Omegas. "I want the first one." He approached the one he had not teased yet and gripped his chin in his thumb and forefinger. "It will be a pleasure to fuck you."
"Thank you, Your Highness," he whispered.
"Nikolai, you shall receive the other, then. I will have a servant clean them before they are brought to your rooms."
"I look forward to it, Omega," Caspian said and sharply turned on his heel. He exited the Throne Room at a brisk pace. The King followed soon after, leaving only Nikolai and the Omega twins.
"I apologize for my family's behavior," the Prince said. He crouched down and slashed the bonds around their feet with his dagger. He moved to their hands next.
"My Prince, you must not apologize to us. We are below you, we live to serve you and your brother. To fulfill your needs and desires."
"Just because you are Omegas and I an Alpha doesn't mean you should be treated like shit on my boot. What are your names?"
"I am Micah, and my brother is Finian."
"You both have lovely names. Finian, I notice you're quite quiet, did my brother startle you?"
Finian looked up with fear in his eyes. He did not want to be punished for being rude. He dropped to his knees and began kissing Nikolai's boots. "I meant no offense, Your Highness. Forgive me, I beg of you."
"Calm yourself down, Fin. You are not in any trouble, I was simply curious. I am known to be the quieter of my twin andI. Have no shame in that."
"Yes, my Lord."
Nikolai sighed. "I fear, though, that whilst you are in my brother's company he will not be as… kind. He chose you, Finian, because he saw you as a challenge and a treat. He is not a loving soul. You mustn't let that take away your spirit, though. I'm sure in time you will adjust to this strange new life." He looked at the Omegas over once more. "I have kept you for too long, Caspian will get cranky if you do not arrive soon, Fin." He nodded his head kindly towards them. "Until we meet again."
