On the eve of his seventeenth birthday, Izuku could feel the beginnings of his heat approaching. They had been within the small port town for several weeks now, waiting for Izuku's omega to feel comfortable enough to begin his final heat cycle before he's to be claimed as an adult. This would allow him to finally take the Consort title to his name, since he was able to now theoretically… conceive children. His hormones and scent would stabilize, and he would be able to go out without the strange potions and patches Doctorate Uraraka insisted that he wear when he first began his heats.

The beginnings of preheat were normal. His body gained a slight fever and his nesting grew intense. He began harvesting clothes of those around him, mainly from his mother, Ochako and Tsuyu, and gathered all the softest pillows and blankets he found around the house. Those that smelled of his familiars were always a delight to have, and Ochako readily gave scented things to him. The smell of their beta scents were light, but enough to help quell the urgency in his omega's haste to prepare their nest. There was however, one glaring distaste to his nest that Izuku couldn't overlook, no matter how hard he tried.

It didn't feel complete, as the smell of his alpha was missing. Izuku didn't understand, his omega whining in temperament that they were missing a vital piece, the most important to complete their nest. It had never yet presented itself like this in the last two heats. He couldn't wrap his mind around why his alpha's scent was now a much needed part to make a nest feel whole… When faced with this question after two days of trying to fill the void, he approached the Doctorate, and she had only smiled before nodding towards her own room she was given to look after those who had falling ill.

She began by saying that since they were now closer to the kingdom, the omega within him could now sense how close his alpha was. She was indeed however, curious as to how these events were playing out. It wasn't normal for an omega, and in turn their alpha, to feel this strong of a connection after so many years apart. She seemed unconcerned over it, and promptly handed Izuku a package that was tightly wrapped. She had only smiled at him, and told him to go back to his nest. His heat would begin by the morrow.

Izuku had only just closed the door to his room when the need to know what was within the package was too pressing to resist anymore. He settled on his bed, larger than it was the previous few weeks as his mother had left the room when he began nesting. The room smelled heavily of her, and Izuku was thankful for it, as it reminded him of their small cottage back within the Fairlands.

His hands gently traced the Bakugou crest along the package. A fierce spiral of a dragon was center of the crest, it's wings large and forming the grooves of the crest markings as if it was carved from the very stone the first one was ever displayed on. A deep amber set in the background, much like the amber that was found in all the previous rulers' eyes - Mitsuki's and Katsuki's especially. Black and silver spun the outside lining, in the same design Izuku's own pendant morphed with the dragon and the B of Bakugou name. The B was intricately designed, and fit within the belly of the dragon. Subtle, but enough that if looked upon, the dragon would stand out first and then the deep grooves of the B would be shown.

It was crafted beautifully, and Izuku loved the look of the Bakugou crest, never having one for the Midoriya name.

This crest would soon be his own, and his fingers hesitated in their path as the thought crossed his mind. He wondered what it would be like, to rule a kingdom, to learn the trades and tasks it took. He wondered if the kingdom was still as grand as it seemed when he was younger, though those memories were muddled with time.

But in truth, he feared the thoughts of his future with his to-be husband.

Would he be treated well? Was Katsuki as rash as he had heard from the rumors that spread through the Fairlands? His letters to and from would say otherwise, but in person could be drastically different than when meeting someone face to face.

Would the people of the Southern Kingdom respect him, as a future ruler should be, despite the reluctance towards Omegas he has seen? He had gained many friends over the years, but also many enemies even though his omegan side was suppressed and hardly existent since his first heat.

Would he be praised, or would he be outcasted, much like his own betrothed had done these past few years?

Izuku huffed out a harsh laugh. The poor excuses for letters had stopped within time, but it wasn't entirely his betrothed fault. He was to blame as well. The letters had grown fewer and far between, but he had stopped the responses as well. He was quick to answer, but the last few from Katsuki had left much to be desired. They no longer held the same joy and excitement of writing about what the other had been up to. He was forced into training and hardships to prepare for his own coming of age ceremony that had taken place nearly a year or so ago. The last letter he had received expressed that to him. How Katsuki was prepared and ready, and it frightened Izuku.

He gripped the front of his shirt with tight fingers, his knuckles turning white from his grasp. His heart pounded within his ears as his mind swirled with the thoughts of the letter, and the scent that had come with it. How was he so prepared for their lives to just end, and suddenly begin once again, but with a mate by their side and a kingdom to rule? How could one even prepare themselves for that? All Izuku knew was his alchemy, and the people who had surrounded him during this time. Granted, he would still have both of those things, but once he stepped foot into that castle, no, even the kingdom, his life would change forever.

He would be expected to take up the title of a prince. He would go through his own coming of age ceremony. He would be given tasks and taught the ways of a royal consort. He would then, within a years time, be married and mated to Katsuki Bakugou, and then become the next queen of the Southern Kingdom. His mind raced with those thoughts, and he fell back onto the bed with a grunt.

His eyes were closed, his breathing settling before a slight scent hit his nose. He sniffed the air cautiously, before turning onto his side and reaching for the package once more. His nose inhaled the scent, before he ripped open the package and his nose was met with the most devine scent he had ever experienced. The very same scent, the very same one that had sent him into his second heat was encased within.

He grabbed the red cape and brought it up to him, inhaling deeply as the scent of his alpha flooded his system. It seemed his omega was preening under the assault of the smell, and he could feel his own slick beginning. His alpha smelled so ripe, so… right, that Izuku buried his face within the fur lining and nestled back into the pillows that formed his nest. His omega urged him to finish it, quickly, and Izuku rushed to place the cape over as much as it would cover. He purred out in realization that it was finally complete, and his omega answered back in delight.

Izuku quickly stripped off his clothes, remembering to lock the door before nestling himself against the cape once more. His skin was already feverish, and his slick thighs a reminder of what was coming, but his omega promised him that he was prepared.

Katsuki, his alpha, had sent him a gift. A very, very prime gift. It was the kind of gift that an alpha gave to whoever they were courting to make sure they thought of them. The kind of gift that would drive an omega mad for their scent, wanting more, and having this to help sustain the burning heat that would consume him in time.

He laid there, facing nuzzling into the fur as he mixed their scents together. It was like a raging campfire burning hot during the colder nights within the dense surrounding forest. Izuku got lost within it, and his mind began to play out different scenes between the two of them.

Katsuki over top of his smaller form, blocking the rays of sun as they filtered into the room around them. His warm hard body, encompassing his own as he drew out the long awaited moans between them. Their bodies slick, with the sweat and fluids from their menstruations. The way Katsuki's hands would wrap around his own, holding him down as he took and took what he wanted, what he needed from Izuku's own body.

Their passion would run deep, their first coupling would be intense as they let their dynamics take over. Izuku's omega would call out, his scent escaping across the room as Katsuki's own alpha answered back. He'd gasp, his moans low in noise as Katsuki prepared his body. His omega would open for him, begging him closer by the slick glistening on his thighs, and flowing into the bedsheets below.

When Katsuki would first breach him, that final moment between the two before they became one he would…

"Al-alpha!"

"Fuck!"

Katsuki groaned as his body arched off the bed. His hand worked furiously on his aching erection, the knot already beginning to inflate. His other hand squeezed his knot tightly, groaning out from the pleasure it brought him.

He could feel his orgasm approaching, squeezing just a little more to give that added push towards the edge. His mind racing over the thoughts that had been plaguing him for the past few hours since his rut first began. He had been thrown out of a court session when he nearly snapped at a high appointing court member, and his mother promptly threw him into his room and locked the door when he raced after her.

He had first shown the signs with his aggression getting worse during the court meetings that were prominent for him to be there. They were planning for the arrival of Izuku, and everyone within the court was overjoyed at finally setting their eyes on their new omegan consort. None yet knew that Izuku was a male, or even his name and birthright, but the Bakugou's were proud with their choice nonetheless.

Katsuki would never admit it out loud to others, but he was the proudest. He had heard and kept tabs on his omega throughout the years apart. Hearing of his achievements as All Might's apprentice and seeing the inventions that had his insignia on it. Katsuki cherished the look of it, and knew that the day was fastly approaching that it would change, and hold his own combined crest with Izuku's name.

His alpha roared out in approval. Claiming and marking the omega in whatever way possible to show that he was theirs was his greatest need at this moment...

Izuku gasped out in need as he entered the warmth of his omega. He called out to him, and his alpha answered with a snarl as he met a barrier. He shook with exertion to not fill him to the brim right away. His omega felt amazing, and he wanted nothing more to drive in and claim, but he held back, his body fumbling for purchase as his omega, his Izuku, looked up with unshed tears. His nod of approval was all he needed as he let his hips move back, before slamming them forward once more, breaching that final piece of Izuku.

This omega, he was his now… and his alone.

Izuku gasped out as his fingers entered him, taking place of what was within his imagination. He worked them furiously, his lips bitten raw by his teeth as he stroked his small cock and scissored himself open. He worked himself into a stupor, and gasped out as he reached something within him as his mind drifted once more...

"Al-alpha!" Izuku would moan out, his nails clawing into Katsuki's back as he dug in his heels. It would hurt, he knew, but he felt complete, he felt whole in that moment. Something he never felt before since his father first left them, since the last time he was held in Katsuki's arms as a child… His tears flowed over, and he felt the warm kisses Katsuki would place on his face, kissing away the streaks as he held still above him. They would move in unison, and Izuku gasped at the new feelings flowing through him as the pain ebbed away to pleasure.

All consuming, all encompassing as they became one with one another.

Katsuki groaned out as his hand wrapped tighter around his knot. It had finally popped, and it wouldn't be long before he was cumming. His eyes, hooded and dark with lust glanced out his window, looking towards the dense forest he knew his mate was in. It was only a matter of time now… until…

Katsuki would gasp out as his knot would inflate within his mate. It would bound them together, and he growled as his omega shook. He nosed at his neck, and Izuku readily gave it to him. Baring your throat was the ultimate sacrifice, and Katsuki took it. He needed them all to know who Izuku belonged to. He would bite down, drawing blood and officially connecting them for eternity as his knot would finally release and…

His jaw snapped shut as his whole body shook with the force of his orgasm coming over him. Katsuki growled out, a howl escaping his mouth as he grit his teeth. His hand stopped moving, focusing on putting pressure onto the swollen knot as cum shot around him.

Izuku gasped as his eyes were shut tight. His orgasm was too much, much too much for him. He had never felt this before, had never felt something so powerful minus when the power of One for All coursed through his veins. He grit his teeth, his mind playing over how he felt in his fantasy.

His alpha, claiming him, all for them to see was a heavy dream, but it felt so real…. Too real.

Izuku removed his hands, soiled in his own fluids as he glanced out his window. His eyes trailed over the top of the trees, his eyes barely able to make out the distance structure of the castle that would soon be his home. He reached out his hand, shaking still from his orgasm, and traced over the spirals of the castle.

Katsuki watched the clouds move. The trees seemed to flow in the wind as his hand reached out, grasping towards nothing but still calling to him as he could see the trees forming into a familiar head of hair. A small smile broke the corners of his lips, and he closed his eyes as his hand fell to his bed once more.

Izuku's hand came to grip the white fur lining of the red cloak. His mind replaying the images once more. It terrified him, how much he and his omega seemed to want the alpha he hardly knew… But he would press on. It was his duty, his birth right now. He had to fulfill his destiny.

With fear in his heart, Izuku turned from the window. His back faced the castle that would be his within a quickly approaching near-future…

His body still throbbed with need, but he needed his rest if this was how his body would be reacting for the next few days... He would need to rest now before another wave hit him and these haunting fantasties wrecked his body once more…

"Are you ready dear one?"

Izuku looked up from tying his red shoes, the bright color a stark contrast to the rest of his outfit. He smiled, his grin a hoax as Doctorate Uraraka and Ochako looked down upon him. He could see Ochako studying his features, a frown forming as he avoided eye contact with her.

"As…" He gulped, clearly his throat as his voice caught. A blush flooded his cheeks as he nodded quickly. Pulling at his collar he stood as tall as his body allowed and nodded once more, confidence filling his spirit as he met her eyes. "As ready as I will be, Doctorate."

She nodded at that, stepping forward to the carriages nearby. He watched her get onto the one that held his mother, and fell into step next to Ochako as they approached their own in the middle-rear of their caravan. He could feel her eyes on him, studying as he climbed into the back of the carriage and sat down besides Tsuyu.

"I can feel your nerves from here, Izuku-dono. Ribbit."

Izuku glanced as Tsuyu, a more prominent blush forming his face as he registered the title she gave him, "Please, Tsuyu, we are friends. Do not bring up the formalities that I have not earned yet…"

"Technically you are by all means now our royal consort, dear one. We must abide by those titles given to you or it will be seen as a great dishonor and-"

"Tenya, please." Ochako placed a hand on his shoulder, calming his rant before it could go further with no way to drag him out. Izuku looked relieved at that and Ochako smiled. "I think times like these, where it is all of us together in a simple setting, it will be enough to refer to each other as our given names. Personal. Formalities seem to be much too… formal, yes?" She giggled at her own words, and the tension Izuku felt within his body left him immediately.

He could handle this, if his new life would allow it. He only hoped he could still be seen as just Izuku, and not as the royal consort; the omega to Katsuki's alpha; the queen to the king. Just Izuku. Izuku Midoriya.

Even that however, would change as he would become known as Izuku Bakugou once they were wed…

He glanced out of the carriage opening, seeing the caravan move towards the castle at a faster pace than he preferred. They would be there within a few hours time, reaching around midday and would have a feast in honor of their return to the kingdom.

He could only hope his heavily beating heart could take this much pressure bearing down upon it.

"I see it!"

Katsuki looked up from his seat in the common room of the castle at Eijirou's commotion. It was modest in appearance, but served the royal family well within this time as they waited for the caravan to draw close enough to exit the castle to wait. He stood up, his mother coming to his side as she gave him a grand grin at seeing the excitement in his eyes.

He had to contain himself. It wouldn't be befitting of the future king to get too excited in seeing his betrothed after so long, now would it?

"How far away, Eijirou?" His mother moved forward, looking up at whom Katsuki trusted as his most valuable friend and allie. He stood on a perch, overlooking the castle grounds as his hand rested over his eyes to shield away the midday sun.

"They are entering the westernmost gate now my queen! They shall be here soon!"

Katsuki bristled with nervous energy, his hands clamping onto the thick belt he wore. His father came to rest his hand on his shoulder, and Katsuki gave him a grunt to signal he was ready.

He stepped forward then, and threw open the castle doors, standing out onto the furthermost point of the stone paving before he reached the stairs down to the cobblestone ground that the caravan would perch on. He could feel it, his omega calling out to him as he drifted closer, and Katsuki puffed up his chest. His parents came to rest on his right side, and looked equally as prepared as he felt.

"Izuku! Come look!"

Ochako looked out the back of the carriage with a bright smile, her eyes darting from one end of the street to the next. Many people were scattered around to see the caravan pass through, all with welcoming smiles and curiosity floating through their eyes. Tsuyu waved on, her small smile simple as the two other males looked over their heads as well.

Izuku sat, his body stiff as nerves wracked over him. His omega was preening, could feel Katsuki nearby, his alpha calling to him in want and need. He wasn't ready for this… how could he be ready for this…? Why was he chosen for such a fate..?

"Izuku?"

He looked up from his lap, his hands near ripping the grey fabric of his gloves as they were tight on his pant's leg. Ochako looked down in concern, moved forward to take his hands into her own. He smiled, the best he could as he tried to calm his still racing heart. "I'm fi-fine Ochako- so please just-"

"You are not fine! You are breaking out into a sweat even in this weather. Are you still ill? Did your last heat leave longer lasting effects than we had thought…? Should we have stayed an extra-"

"N-no! No! Really!" He moved his hands out of her grip and waved them in front of him. He shook his head, his eyes moving to the opening in the front of the carriage as the castle was now just a few hundred yards away. "I'm just… anxious. I don't like this feeling. I can't seem to calm down…"

"Oh! Is it just that? Let me help you then." Her soft smile was all his warning before her staff waved over him, and a calming feeling settled over him. His heart stilled, calming from its pounding and putting him at ease for the first time since they began this journey.

"What did you-?"

"Ochako! I must insist that you do not do that without warning! It is most preposterous that the dear one would need such an aid as a calming spell! If you had casted it wrong he could have been put to sleep and even more waiting to see their return!" Tenya moved forward, his arm waving in a slashing motion as he reprimanded Ochako. Izuku heard a snort and looked over to see Fumikage smiling to himself as Tsuyu looked on in content. Izuku smiled at the scene, and slowly rose to his feet as he felt the carriage slowly down.

Looking once more over towards the castle, he could feel the burning eyes searching the carriage before they met his own. He held them for a second, narrowing his own eyes before he moved towards the back. Another of the Iida boys held open the flap, and moved his hand out to help guide Izuku down. He ignored the hand, jumping down on his own, and clanking the metal bands on his wrists together to draw more courage unto his body.

He met his mother's eyes as she moved towards him, eyes welling up in tears as she smiled up at him. He grinned down at her, taking her much smaller hand into his own and turning towards the Bakugou's. Mitsuki was already making her way down the stone steps, wrapping them both into a tight hug before they could even reach the bottom of the stairs.

"Oh! Welcome! Welcome back you two! We have missed you so dearly!" Mitsuki pulled back to grin down at the both of them. She kissed Inko's cheeks before taking Izuku's own into her hands. "My, my Izuku dear, you have grown handsomely over these years… You have such kind look to your face, unlike my unruly son." She turned her eyes behind her as she glanced back at Katsuki who seemed to be frozen even as his father stepped down towards the Midoriya's.

Eijirou stood beside Katsuki, coughing out to grab the blonde's attention as Ashido, Hanta and Denki stood off to the side and looked at the scene with mirth. "Ahem… Aren't you going to go say hello, or something? He's looking right at you…"

Katsuki looked down at Izuku, his eyes meeting his once more and his chest began to pound. His breath felt as if it was obstructed for once, and he grunted. "I… I yeah-"

"Also, you never mentioned your omega being well, a rarity, when the hell were you planning on telling us this? Now?" Eijirou grinned at him and Katsuki huffed out a chuckle before he stepped forward towards the edge of the stairs.

"You know fucking now, that's all that matters." Katsuki stared down at the other teenager as he made his way slowly down the stairs. Izuku moved from his mother's grasp and they moved away to let the two childhood friends and betrothes reunite once again.

Katsuki reached the last step and stood tall, chest puffing out as he stared down Izuku who was still on the cobblestone pavement. Izuku looked up at him, nerves and something else within his deep emerald eyes. Katsuki couldn't place it before he bowed slightly, before glancing once more of his soon-to-be omega.

"Deku."

Izuku's eyes shined at this, before a small smile lifted the corner of his lips and he bowed, mocking Katsuki as he struck out a hand to the side.

"Kacchan…"
