I'm back baby

Hope you like the new chapter

Jean sighed wearily as he stepped out of the back door wearily. Thank god it was his break, he seriously needed a breather. While he enjoyed his job to an extent, the customers could often be a pain. If not for the fact he got along well with the manager and he had made friends with some of his co-workers. He would probably look at another place to work, somewhere closer to his college apartment and with better pay.

People being difficult with orders, people making a mess, harassing customers or being impatient. While he was used to it by now, it sure as hell didn't get any easier. People who worked in hospitality or customer service got way too much shit for simply doing their job. Simply trying to make their customers happy and most days getting nothing but abuse for it.

Thank god for this short period of time in which he could get time off when things got quiet. A little thing he called "Jean time" where he could enjoy the fresh air and get himself a quick bite and drink. This place had some pretty good leftovers, keeping him well fed. Hell it would help feed him give how broke he would be while a college student. Thanks to his job he would be able to have some income in his pocket.

God knows he needed it by now, he couldn't even remember the last time he ate. Sometimes he was amazed by his ability to balance being a freshman at college and having a part time job. Given he would have study dates, his monthly heats, college classes and a part time job. He would have very little to no free time whatsoever. Not something he really enjoyed very much.

Luckily, he was able to claim the job during high school. So, he could help pay his rent and hopefully still afford to eat food aside from any leftovers he may get from his job at this place. I mean his mum sometimes sent him care packages being the caring mother she was. But he felt bad about it as it felt he was relying on her. Though grateful for them, he took pride in his independence and taking care of himself.

He then leaned against the wall a short distance away from the door. Enjoying the breeze of the cool night air on his skin, enjoying being out in the fresh air than the stuffy restaurant. God knows being on your feet all night and constantly having to tend to people. It got pretty stressful using up more energy than you realized leaving you utterly exhausted by the end of it.

It wasn't exactly a bad place by any means, in fact the place was really respectable and took care of the premises really well. A break after all the activities was nothing short of a wonderful feeling. But he didn't plan on doing this sort of job for the rest of his life, no sir. He had dreams, he had hopes, and he planned on chasing them until he finally reached his goal. His dream of becoming a police officer.

His gaze lifted to the star lit sky above him, so deep and blue. Stretching out forever like an endless pool of midnight with glittering white orbs so high above him. Shining so brightly and warming his soul. For a brief moment of his life, he felt calm and peaceful inside. Not a care in the world and in a pretty good mood. Feeling good of himself and eager to finish his shift and head back home.

Suddenly, his peaceful silence was broken by a voice. Though he had not expected them to find him, nor to know where he worked. They had only just met for the first time after all. "Love the uniform Kirstein, really compliments your figure" a familiar voice teased. It hugged him in all the right places, he very much liked what he saw indeed. Though he wished he could take a photo.

Puberty had done a good job on Jean since middle school. He had a great figure, a nice ass and great legs. Those cheekbones were really detailed, who knew the jerk he used to argue with would become such a hottie. Fate had truly been kind to him by blessing him with Jean as his mate, he wondered if he could be any happier than he was now.

Jean panicked, that voice. No way, this had to be a dream, he was just half asleep from working so hard, it couldn't be him. Only Marco knew where he worked, and he promised to keep it a secret. I mean nobody would mind since he was a freshman now. But he didn't exactly like telling the wrong people where he worked in case they took advantage of him.

Part time jobs were not unusual in college, everyone had one. Connie worked behind a bar with Reiner and Annie. Sasha worked at a fast food joint and Marco worked at as a delivery guy. But all through school he had kept it hidden in hopes of never being found out by any teachers. He didn't need a bad rep for getting a job despite being a troublesome yet skilled student.

He gripped his hands into fists, annoyed that his brief moment of piece had been interrupted by Eren of all people. Could he not get any damn peace and quiet from this guy at all? He had tolerated him through high school and middle school, hoping to part ways after then. However, they had ended up attending the same damn college much to his chagrin.

Now he learned that this same shit was also his fated alpha mate. Could this get any worse? Yes, it could, because now Eren had managed to find out where he worked. Worst fucking day of his life to date. He didn't really fancy having Eren as a future customer because he could get away with harassing and insulting him in the work place.

He then shot Eren a warning glare, trying to hint that he just wanted to be alone "Not everyone can be a rich doctor's son Yeager. Some of us have to work for our future" he hissed. He wasn't in the mood for Eren's shit right now, if he came here to gloat he didn't want to hear it. He was already in a shitty mood from work and knowing that Eren of all people was his damn Alpha.

Given his rankings, Eren probably just came to tease the ever-loving crap out of him. He wouldn't put it against him, Eren was capable of being a petty and rather harsh individual like that. If he didn't like you or had a bone to pick with you, he would openly make this fact known with little to no hesitation about it whatsoever.

He was well aware that Omega's were a joke in the mating world which is why he kept it a secret for so long. He didn't need them poking fun at him like they did when he was a child. When they weren't picking on him for being a mama's boy or chubby, they were making fun of him for being an Omega. Calling him a loser and a failure, shattering his self esteem at a young age.

But things were different now, his new life and persona keeping up a disguise of sorts. Besides with his personality, intelligence, grades and good leadership skills. If he didn't say anything, people would just assume him to be a Beta and he could happily live with that. He would have rather been mistaken as an above average beta than be revealed to be an Omega. He knew if anyone found out about it, especially if he went into heat, he would be in deep shit.

But now that Eren knew his omega identity, any hopes of living in peace were shattered. Knowing what Eren could do with this information made his blood run cold at the very thought of word getting out. He was in a powerful position and if he wanted he could blackmail Jean or even reveal his info if he wished. He wouldn't put it against Eren, he could be a piece of shit sometimes and wasn't against getting revenge.

Eren scoffed and raised an eyebrow, a smirk on his face "Wow. An Omega speaking back to an Alpha, that's a fist I have to say" he teased smugly. Though he was impressed by Jean's attitude, first time any Omega had ever had the balls to stand up to him. Most he had ever met were passive, polite or soft spoken. Knowing their place and living reasonably peaceful lives. Most Omega's lived average lives and had regular lower tier jobs for bottom feeders.

But Jean wasn't like other omega's, he spoke his mind even when it wasn't best to do so. He had good leadership skills and was a loyal person, anyone would find that admirable in a mate. He was a rare form of Omega that was not very common of their breed. He carried all of the traits of being a Beta, above average skills. But was born an Omega instead capable of bearing a child or impregnating a female alpha.

He then silently approached Jean to which the latter stood up reader to protect himself. He had fought with Eren before, nothing he couldn't handle. Nothing would make him happier than to punch Eren's smug face. Then it happened, faster than Jean could process and taking him completely by surprise. Having expected to be punched and end up with a sore face or more later. Not anything like this.

Eren slammed his foot one side of Jean against the wall to stop him getting away. His green eyes gleaming with dominance and a threatening aura, warning Jean not to test him further. He was out of his league here and if he tried anything, he would be the one who would be in trouble. If any of his co-workers heard him he could lose his job and god knows he would need it during college.

Jean felt a shiver run down his spine, but he stood firm and held his ground. He wouldn't back down, he simply gripped his fists tighter and stared back into those green orbs bravely. He was pinned to the wall here by Eren and he knew better than to escape. He could see the gleam in his eyes, meaning how serious he was. If he wanted to, he could beat the shit out of him and have him submissive in seconds.

There were all sorts of things that Eren could do to Jean as an Alpha and get away with it. Alpha's had all the power in the world being the sharks of society, nothing was out of their reach or unattainable. If Eren demanded something of him he had to listen no matter what and follow through, that was simply a taste of the authority Eren had.

Eren watched Jean silently, glad he was being obedient. Though in reality he meant no threat to Jean at all, simply not wanting him to cause him any trouble. As he knew how rebellious Jean could be. Honestly, he loved that about Jean. He remained true to himself despite being an alpha and refused to bow down to their hierarchy. He stood out from the rest and took pride in doing so which he respected.

He then sighed heavily, his breath like fog in the cold night air. Giving him, the appearance of a dragon preparing to breath pure fire. His wild green eyes shining in the dark like jewels. A predatory look in his eyes which sent shivers down his spine. He was silently threatening Jean to not try anything, knowing it would not be wise to do so. Though like he said he wouldn't actually so anything.

He then reached out slowly, causing Jean's breath to hitch slightly. Half expecting Eren to strangle him and threaten him for speaking out against him. To put him in his place as it was. However, instead what happened next really threw Jean for a loop. Instead of hurting him, Eren instead reached for his clothes. Not even in an aggressive way, just a very forward manner.

Eren slowly undid Jean's top buttons of his blouse, flashing his toned and forming chest from under his clothes. Exposing his skin to the cool night air and causing him to shiver at the sudden cool contact. Given it was September the temperature wasn't exactly warm, as you can expect. So, he could feel Goosebumps forming on his skin due to his revealed flesh as his uniform was opened slowly.

Eren didn't look away, his gaze pinned to Jean's body. He had such beautiful skin, ever so slightly tanned and rosy from body heat. He had a nice body, puberty and his work toning his body nicely. Fated mates or not, Jean was insanely his type and had been so since middle school. He had just become even more alluring during their time apart. He couldn't wait till he eventually got a taste of Jean.

Jean shuddered, and his heart skipped in chest wildly. A million different thoughts rushing through his mind as he tried to focus on what the hell was actually going on right now. He had come out for a breather before he would go inside and get some food. How had it ended up being confronted by Eren and possibly being harassed around the back of his work?

Eren was stronger than him being an alpha, if he wanted he could overpower him after a lengthy struggle. Was that what he was here for? Was Eren going to rape him? God, he felt sick inside. I mean given his position, despite their fate as mates Eren could get away with such things if he wanted. There was nothing to say he couldn't thanks to their ranks as Alpha and Omega.

Eren saw his reaction and softened, a feeling of guilt washing over him. He hadn't meant to scare Jean that much, simply warn him of whom he was messing with here. That he should know better. He was an asshole sometimes and he could admit that, but he was not nearly as bad as others like him. Some Alpha's abused their status to abuse Omega's openly because they felt they could.

He would happily tease and put Jean in his place, but to an extent he respected him aside from his feelings for him. Even he knew his limits of when he had gone too far and should stop. He then leaned forward, causing Jean to panic and close his eyes. Expecting for pain and something awful to happen. But he would never regret it, he would never back down even if it was an Alpha.

That was when he felt it, the sharp pain. But not like the kind he had been expecting, teeth dug into his neck sharply and he felt blood being drawn. Eren was biting him, not punching him. Sinking his teeth into his neck, marking him. He gripped his hands tighter into fists, his nails digging in. Gritting his teeth, refusing to let a sound escape his lips as much as it hurt.

He felt himself want to whimper and stiffen at the pain rushing through his body. Small tears threatening to pour down his face as he felt his neck burning and aching in pain. But he refused to beg, he refused to cry and he refused to give Eren the satisfying response he knew that he wanted to hear. Jean would never show how much it really hurt.

Eren bit harder, until he knew he had bitten deep enough. The coppery flavour of Jean's blood mixing in with saliva. The scent of Jean wafting up his nose as he did so. A new sensation rushing through him. At least with this any other Alpha knew he belonged to Eren. They would not go near him and it would be easier for Jean not to go into heat for a while. Now that he belonged to him.

Anyone who attempted to make a move on someone else's fated and marked mate was an idiot. Regardless of whether or not they were an alpha or a beta, it never ended well for them. He then pulled away, leaving Jean in a haze his face a mixture of pain and fear. He then removed his foot and straightened up, wiping the remaining blood from his lips carefully.

Watching Jean silently as he did so, sensing the fear in his eyes. He had hoped for it to be less painful, but that couldn't be avoided fully. But the deed was done, now everyone would know that Jean was his Alpha, or at least back off of him. He had done enough, and it was best he back off and go back to his dorm room. He had made himself known and marked Jean as his mate, so far a large chunk of his plan had been done.

He then slowly stalked off down the alleyway, a mix between frustrated and aroused. Jean was really inside his head, he could feel his body screaming for another taste of Jean. But he had to be patient, at least for now people would know Jean had been claimed until the bite healed up. His heat would go down for a while and he would be safe, at least for a month or so.

"I was serious about that outfit" he replied defiantly his tone almost playful. He was a bit of a kinky guy and loved a guy in a uniform, be it polite, doctor, or even the one he was currently wearing. Jean in particular really flipped his switch badly. Those smouldering golden amber eyes of his reflected in the light like pure honey. So beautiful.

As Jean attempted to compose himself, still in shock but gripping and un-gripping his hands. Trying to figure out if this whole situation was dream or not, at this point he had no idea anymore. He then looked up at Eren silently, his face bright red from more than just the cold. Not knowing what to do with himself, in utter disbelief that Eren hadn't attacked him like he expected.

Eren turned to look at him, their eyes locking with one another's for a while. A silent conversation being shared between the two. The stars twinkling brightly up above them. A conversation of understanding and semi respect being shared between the two males, understanding what was happening. What the other was thinking in that moment.

Eren then smirked playfully and winked at Jean before turning on his heels and heading back the way he came. At least with this, Jean would be aware that he had no intention of letting him go. That he now belonged to him and he would do everything in his power to make sure Jean became his. That he would make him happy.

Jean blinked then clicked his teeth in annoyance. The bite still hurt a little, thank god, his uniform would cover it up. But he would need to get medical attention later. He had even drawn blood that son of a bitch. He then began to fix his shirt, hoping the blood wouldn't stain his uniform. God knows how hard it was to get out of clothes and he didn't need anyone speaking about him behind his back at work.

His cheeks were bright red with embarrassment, he and Eren had only been reunited today at class. Now he was making a move on him despite only having found out they were mates. God knows he had no idea of what to say despite the millions of thoughts rushing through his mind. He was so fucking embarrassed and annoyed at Eren teasing and taunting him like that.

But from now on he would have to wear clothes that covered his neck until he healed. Thankfully he had a first aid kit that came with the apartment in case of emergencies. God knows he didn't need anyone talking about this. If Marco or his mum knew they would freak out. Their protective modes switching on to alert.

"Eren?! You bit him?!" Armin yelled loudly. Though he knew he had a reason behind it and they were fated mates, that had been very rash on his half. He could at least attempt to be kinder to Jean. He knew Eren was loving this whole situation of being able to now have some power over Jean. But that didn't mean he had to act like a full-on douchebag and tease the poor guy.

Being an Omega was anything but easy in this world, the repression, conflict and harassment they received was anything but easy. Having to be treated like the scapegoats for society. Jean hadn't even mated yet and though Eren was his fated mate, he could at least be gentler with him. Hell, though Eren was a stubborn shit he could at least try and be romantic.

The poor guy got enough shit from society without Eren, having most likely tolerated it his entire life. He knew that he had a long-term crush of Jean, though he was stubborn about it when teased. But being subtle couldn't hurt could it? Otherwise he may scare Jean off instead. The opposite of what he wanted.

Eren pouted, he had expected to hear this from Armin when he told him. He couldn't help himself, he didn't want to risk another Alpha attempting to make his move on Jean. He had been crushing on him since he was 15 after all, you couldn't expect him to be rational or patient when Jean's sweet scent wafted up his nose like a sweet perfume.

"I know you like him and that he's your mate. But seriously? You didn't even try and be romantic?!" Armin hissed. God damn it, he really never learned, did he? There was such a thing as being subtle. Given their past of fighting each other and getting into arguments, abruptly confessing he liked him wouldn't exactly go down smoothly.

Eren stopped and felt a pang of guilt wash over him. When he got desperate he didn't really think rationally, he let his emotions get the better of him. He had wanted to approach Jean for a while but when he smelled Jean's scent and saw him in those clothes he lost it. His primal desires coming to light and taking all of his self control not to make a move.

His thoughtful dreamy look as he stared at the stars, that tight uniform and his cheeks flushed from the cold. He felt like he was going insane, his instincts running wild at the sight. "I know I just…. I like him so much Armin" he replied reluctantly. He had been in love with Jean since they were in middle school. He just couldn't control himself when he was around him.

He heard Armin sigh down the phone, though he didn't sound angry just frustrated. Sometimes he felt blessed to have a friend like Armin in his life who always had his back. "Just give him some space for a few days Eren. The poor guy will be pretty shaken up" Armin warned. If he really wanted to seduce or make a good impression on Jean, he had to take it slow.

Eren sighed, he knew Armin was right. He had come on pretty strongly and teased Jean which he wouldn't appreciate. But at least with the bite people would know he was his omega. "Sure thing" he replied wearily. He then hung up and shoved his phone in his pocket. Damn, he really had stuck his foot in it this time, hadn't he? He wondered if Jean would even come near him again.

Jean stood in a daze by the till silently, the bite no longer stinging. But he kept absentmindedly touching it. The feel of Eren still dancing across his skin, remembering the moment. He had never been so scared and yet surprised in his entire life. Stunned that Eren didn't attack him and yet stunned that he went as far as to mark him like that. He didn't know what to say.

He at least had a first aid kit at home to tend to it. Make sure it didn't get infected or anything. Damn, he had really sunk his teeth in, damn Alpha being so rough with him. They were all about control and dominance. Always needing to be in charge and making sure things went their way. He wouldn't be surprised if Eren would continue teasing him.

Work was one of the places he could have time to himself aside from his apartment. Now that Eren knew where he worked, no doubt he would be paying visits more often. Great, so now he had to attend college with the guy as well as have to serve him at work. Things just kept getting worse and worse by the minute, he couldn't contain his joy.

At least he now had a better excuse to avoid Eren and wouldn't go into heat for a while. That would at least give him some peace for a month or so until the wound healed up. He would at least be grateful for that, but he had no desire to get close to Eren whatsoever. He was the type who bragged and showed off, yet was quick to criticize others who didn't agree with him.

He had no desire to make a guy like that his partner. He wanted someone who genuinely cared about him and respected him as an individual. Not some obnoxious shit like Eren, no way in hell. Why had things had to end up this way? Why did nothing ever go smoothly? Hadn't he suffered enough with being rejected by Mikasa and being born and Omega?

Eren had been bored into a wealthy Alpha family. His mother was strict for sure and a Beta, but she had lived the easy life after marrying Eren's father who was a famous doctor. Thus, he had been pampered his entire life. Everything had been handed to him on a silver platter his entire life. He had no idea what it was like to work hard for something or even be treated badly for society because of your identity.

No wonder he would tease him and make fun of him, by society standards he was lower class. He was an Omega, seen for primarily breeding children and nothing more. Though he worked hard to break those standards. Wanting to show he was more than what society made him out to be, that he was worth more than what Omega's were made out to be.

One of Jean's co-workers, a senior student from their college named Ymir. She was a known Beta, thus seen as an average citizen. But she was in a relationship with another Beta named Krista. They were happy and neither cared about their status either, in the food chain they were seen as normal or average. But they were happy and lived a content life together working towards their future.

Ymir saw the uncomfortable look on Jean's face, though she tended to mind her own business Jean was an ok guy. She got along well with him and he was rather fun to hang out with. "You ok Jean? You look like you saw a ghost" she replied abruptly her tone showing vague signs of concern. Understanding if he didn't want to talk about it, it was his own business after all.

Jean jumped upon hearing her voice, having been so lost inside his own head he had never even heard her. Still locked in the memories of what had happened earlier between him and Eren. He then rubbed the back of his head nervously averting her gaze "Y… Yeah. I'm just a bit tired I guess" he replied awkwardly. I mean he wasn't exactly lying after all, he was feeling the effects of his shift.

Ymir softened and then sighed heavily, he would owe her big time for this. He was a hard worker and he had performed like a trojan this entire shift. The guy deserved a much-needed rest. She then patted him on the back semi roughly causing him to jump out of his skin. He then turned to look at her nervously, trying not to give away the mark that Eren left on his neck.

"You can head off. I can handle the clear up myself" she replied in a semi friendly manner. She could use the head-space and Jean had already worked all of his hours anyway. So, he was cool. She would cover for him if something came up, honestly Jean was one of the few guys on their course that she could stand.

Jean shot her a grateful look and then quickly headed to the changing room. Honestly, by this point all he wanted to do was go back to his dorm room, make dinner and maybe ask Marco to come over. Honestly, after tonight all he wanted was to have a chilled-out night. No more excitement for him thank you very much. He had more than enough for one night or even a week.
