Within the entire population, Betas and Omegas are much more common as males and females in the entire continent. Alphas are heavily scarce among the Clans, especially within the Demon Clan and soon they no longer exist.
Until one day, a man known...
That is the first thing Byleth noticed the moment he was regaining his consciousness. Then came scent in the combination of roses, lavender, lilies, and jasmine along with peppermint. Realizing they're the scent of his Omegas, Byleth opened his eyes and found himself staring at the ceiling that is unfamiliar, making him crane his head up to look around the room he is in.

It didn't belong to either of his mates, but he can tell he is within the castle. So this room had to be one of the guest rooms. Byleth then looks at himself when he felt weight on both sides of him, and sees the demon brothers laying close to him. Though his right arm is out-stretched, but decided not to question it.
He also noticed the bandages around his torso. At first, the demon was confused why he had them on. Then it all came back to him when he recalled the infiltration mission, when he recalled what happened to his Beta sister and what that Archangel Ludociel had done to her. He lets out a growl, which awoke his mates when he did so.
They raised their head up, locking their emerald eyes to his own neon emerald ones.
"Shit... sorry." Byleth said, his voice coming out hoarse.
"You fucking dumbass!!" Meliodas was the first to snap, smacking his Alpha's shoulder harshly which made Byleth wince at it. "What the fuck were you thinking, fighting one of the Four Archangels?! Against that fucker Ludociel of all beings!? You could've been killed!!" he continued to shout at him angrily.
"Oi, he was going to kill us so I had no choice. And I'm still alive aren't I?" Byleth narrowed his eyes.
"If it weren't for your sister using her Warp spell halfway into the flight, you could've been dead already!" Zeldris snapped as he glared at him. "That bastard struck nearly all seven of your hearts, and you were literally at death's door!! Gloxinia had to use nearly all of his energy to rejuvenate you back!"
Byleth's eyebrows were shot upwards, "He did?"
"No shit, why do you think you have bandages around your body?" Meliodas gestured, as he and his brother sat up from laying atop of Byleth to proof it. Then he sighed when Byleth looked at himself again, then leaned down to bury his face into the crook of his neck.
"Just... don't ever do that again. We were scared shitless that we nearly lost you..." the oldest heir of the Demon King murmured, his voice nearly cracked at the thought of losing him. This made Byleth purse his lips, knowing the consequences of what would happen if the partner dies.
"I'll try not to, if that bastard doesn't say anything about threatening you two." Byleth admits.
"That's sweet and all, but don't bother." Zeldris said with a faint smirk. Once Meliodas pulled away from Byleth, the Alpha went to pull himself up. Only to raise an eyebrow when he now noticed he is holding onto something in his right hand.
