A heavy weight pressed down on Scott's chest as he jolted awake, gasping for breath. Beads of cold sweat glistened on his skin, causing a shiver to run down his spine. The sensation was one of raw need, and his body felt like it was aflame.
Inuyasha, sensing the change in his partner, immediately woke up. The amber glow of his eyes sharpened as they darted to Scott's visibly distressed face.
"Scott?" Inuyasha's voice was thick with concern.
Scott turned to him, eyes cloudy with a mix of confusion and desperation. "I... I don't know what's happening," he choked out. "I feel like I'm burning up, but I'm cold at the same time. And there's this... this ache."
Inuyasha's eyes widened in recognition. "It's your rut," he murmured, realization hitting him. Scott's rapid breathing was punctuated by the occasional whimper, and Inuyasha's heart ached for him. He had seen this before in other wolves but never quite this intense.
He moved closer, wrapping his arms around Scott in an attempt to provide some solace. "We'll get through this, okay? I'm here for you," Inuyasha whispered, placing gentle kisses on Scott's forehead.
Scott nodded weakly, burying his face into Inuyasha's neck. "Thank you," he breathed out. The two of them held onto each other tightly, seeking comfort in the other's embrace, bracing for the intense journey that lay ahead.
Inuyasha's face flushed a deep shade of pink, making the tips of his ears match. "Hon, you don't need to be sorry," he murmured, his voice soft and understanding. "But you should have told me. I would have helped you out."
Scott's expression turned sorrowful, the weight of his need momentarily overshadowed by guilt. "You know we can't... or did you forget?" he asked, his voice tinged with pain.
Inuyasha took a deep breath, his fingers gently caressing Scott's face. "I know," he began, his eyes distant as he remembered the events from earlier that day. "But seeing Adrian, and that couple today... It made me think." He swallowed hard, trying to find the right words. "I realized that I want children too. That is, if you're willing and ready."
Scott looked deep into Inuyasha's eyes, trying to read the emotions swirling within. The weight of the moment pressed upon them both. The rut, their love, and the future they envisioned all intermingled in the space between their heartbeats.
"I want that too," Scott whispered, his voice choked with emotion. "More than you'll ever know."
Their foreheads touched, and in that quiet moment, the world outside ceased to exist. All that mattered was the bond they shared and the life they hoped to build together.
Inuyasha moved closer, gently climbing on top of Scott. Their gazes locked, the intensity of their feelings evident in their eyes. Inuyasha slowly lowered his face, capturing Scott's lips in a deep, passionate kiss. Scott responded instantly, wrapping his arms around Inuyasha's waist, pulling him closer.
The heat between them built rapidly, each kiss becoming more fervent than the last. Their surroundings, their worries, and the world outside faded away, leaving just the two of them, lost in the depth of their emotions and the warmth of their connection.
Inuyasha's hands traced patterns on Scott's back, he broke their kiss to lick and suck his way down his alpha's body until he reached Scott's aching, hard cock. He took in the sight, hunger making Inuyasha lick his lips.
Leaning down he devoured Scott's cock, glancing up when his alpha made a delighted moan, Scott sinking his hands into Inuyasha's hair.
"Damn, baby. If you keep going like that I'll finish before I get to take you," Scott told him in a breathy murmur, his voice strained as Inyuasha pressed his tongue along his length.
Pulling off, Inyuasha lifted his head to continue his trail of kisses and love bites back up Scott's lean body, paying attention to every hard line and curve of his form, until finally he captured his mouth again in a tender kiss.
Inuyasha drew back slightly to breathe his words over Scott's lips, "We can't have that, not until you're inside me."
"Then get your sweet ass onto my cock, before I bust." Scott ordered, pulling Inuyasha onto his lap so that his mate was straddling his hips. The tip of Scott's cock brushed Inuyasha's soaking wet hole. The half-demon let out a pleasurable noise, wrapping his arms around his alpha as he sunk down onto Scott.
It took all of Scott's power not to give in and fuck him until his knot popped.
A low keening moan escaped Scott's when Inuyasha bottomed out, his mate whined in response like a needy whore. The sound caused Scott's eyes to glow a blood red, the tight heat of Inuyasha nearly driving him mad, but he waited, giving his mate time to adjust.
Inuyasha squirmed, rolling his hips to encourage Scott to move, "I'm ready, Scott. I need you to move."
"Are you sure?" Scott asked, embracing his mate.
Inyuasha whined at the question, impatient, "Yes, gods. Alpha, fuck me."
Scott gave Inuyasha a fang smile before kissing him, lifting his mate to slam him back down on his cock. Inyuasha was practically singing, the constant moans of pleasure encouraging Scott to pick up the pace.
"Faster…" Inyuasha pleaded, trying desperately to keep up with Scott. "I need you to go faster, and harder."
Scott was always attuned to Inuyasha's needs, fulfilling his every desire. When Inuyasha voiced his wishes, Scott, ever the devoted alpha, ensured they were met without hesitation.
It wasn't long before Scott felt the tingle of his knot starting to form, he growled and pushed Inuyasha to his back. His mate reached for him, his nails scratched his scalp as he grabbed Scott's hair and pulled him, their lips meeting once more.
Scott panted, catching Inuyasha's stare, "Are you sure? I'm going to knot you."
Inyuasha gave him a confident smile, his eyes glittering with love, "Yes. You forever and always. I'm ready."
When Scott's knot caught on Inuyasha's rim, the half-demon let out a powerful cry, and Scott joined him as he grinded his cock into his ass, pressing his knot in more, locking them together. They orgasm in unison, Inuyasha milking Scott's knot as he rutted into him.
It takes a few moments before they come down for their pleasurable high. Scott rolled to his back, bringing Inuyasha with him, letting his mate rest over his chest. They caught their breaths, Inuyasha listening to Scott's heart beat, as Scott ran his fingers through his mate's long hair.
Eventually Scotts knot subsided and he pulled free of Inuyasha with a grunt, his mate moaning at the loss of his cock inside of him. Scott is first to stand, picking up his mate to carry them to the bath. Inuyasha resting his head against his shoulder as he does.
They drew a warm bath, the steam fogging up the bathroom mirror. Scott, his muscles tense and body still radiating heat, was the first to step in. The water hissed as it made contact with his skin, enveloping him in its warmth. He sighed, momentarily relieved, before reaching out a hand to help Inuyasha in.
Once settled, Inuyasha leaned back against Scott's chest, grabbing a lavender bath bomb from the side of the tub. As it fizzed and dissolved, the water turned a soft shade of purple, releasing a calming fragrance that filled the room.
The two took turns gently washing each other, the intimacy of the act helping them reconnect after the intensity of the night. They allowed the water to cleanse and refresh them, the world outside momentarily forgotten.
Scott nuzzled into his mate's neck, tilting his head aside. He passionately licked Inuyasha's neck, focusing over his carotid artery, his fangs grazing ever so gently. Understanding the notion, Inuyasha leaned his head back to give him more access.
"Do it, you tease!" Inuyasha said, wantingly.
"Are you sure? Once I mark you and we share blood, we will be one forever." Scott pressed a kiss against Inuyasha bare neck.
Inuyasha reached a hand up to brush Scott's face, "Yes, just do it already."
The moment Scott's fangs pierced Inuyasha's neck his mouth was flooded with the sweet taste of his mates blood. He was careful not to bite too deep and knick his artery. Reaching out a wrist in front of Inuyasha to complete the blood pact.
The moment that Inuyasha latched onto Scott's wrist and tasted the first drop of blood, his mind was flooded with his alpha's every thought, their emotions swirling between them. Their minds become connected, becoming one.
Licking the bites clean, Scott then noticed a symbol appear around the mark he placed on Inuyasha's neck and couldn't help but wonder why it looked so familiar. Pushing the thought away, he leaned back, bringing Inuyasha with him. They both settled once more, relaxing in each other's arms, now mated and marked.
It was only when the water began to cool that Scott released the plug, letting it drain away. He stood, offering a hand to Inuyasha, and together they stepped out of the tub. Scott reached for a plush towel, carefully drying both of them before hanging it back on the rack.
Just as they were slipping into their robes, there was a soft knock on the bedroom door. The two exchanged a glance, hastily tying their robes, before Scott made his way to the door, opening it to find Peter standing there.
"Sire, breakfast has been prepared. You might want to join soon; the pack and the new guests are already digging in."
"Thanks, Peter," Scott replied, appreciating the heads up. "Give us a moment to get ready. Oh, and would you mind changing out the bedding?"
Peter's eyes briefly darted to the tousled bed, the implication clear. With a subtle nod, he responded, "Of course, sire. It will be taken care of. Enjoy your meal."
