The Demons' Alpha

♠️ 3 ♠️

The kiss was still fresh in his mind. No matter how many times he tried to forget it, it would always return to make him irritated. Byleth cursed himself for letting that prince kiss him, but it was on him for not expecting it.

Omegas previously had kissed him on the cheek, even though it was meant for his lips. None of those kisses meant anything and bothered him. So why did the kiss Zeldris gave him affected him this way?!

 Why is it that he would occupy his mind as well?!

"What the hell?!" Byleth growled out in irritation, burying his hands through his mint hair.

 What the hell did that raven-haired minx do to him?! Did he cast some kind of spell on him and make him fall for him like that?!

 No, Bella would have told him otherwise when he arrived home yesterday. And he knew otherwise, because oddly enough at the thought of the demon prince he had the urge to go back to him. His Alphan side hissing at him to track him down and take him.

 It never happened to him like this before. Only when it comes to the Omegas in heat, but his Alphan instincts hardly made any effort to take over him and act on it. Yet now it acted this way after the kiss Zeldris had given him.

 Why did the kiss make it act like that?

 "Brother?"

 Byleth snapped his head up, and saw Bella flinched with slight wide eyes. He must've looked irritated and pissed to her, which made him exhale to ease off the tension. He managed to wear the expression off, and replaced it with mild tiredness.

 "Bella..."

 "What has happened to you to act like this?" Bella asked in concern, making her way over to him and sitting down beside him. "You were fine yesterday until when you came home and looked severely troubled."

 Byleth grunted, "It's nothing."

 "Brother, please." Bella gave him a look, not at all convinced and having no intentions to let this slide. "Talk to me. What has happened while you were out?"

 Knowing she was stubborn to not wander off, Byleth straightens himself in his seat. He hopes that maybe she knows about his predicament. If not, then he would be left confused as fuck until some Omega points it out to him.

 "I was practicing my sword as always in the training grounds, after I managed to avoid the Omegas that kept coming after me." Byleth explains to her, running a hand through his mint locks. His twin sister nodded.

 "And then what?"

 Byleth sighed heavily, "And then when I was wrapping up, I was approached by someone I didn't think I would meet."

 Bella tilts her head, furrowing her brows in perplex. "Who?"

 "Zeldris of Piety."

 Bella's eyes went wide, "What? Lord Zeldris approached you? For what?"

 She was left confused, yet terrified for her brother.

 Many knew the reputation the young prince has, not just as him being part of the Ten Commandments but being the famed Executioner. She was starting to fear that Byleth must have done something to earn his presence.

 Byleth looks over to her, "For me being a Pure Alpha."

 Bella paused for a moment, then she looked in disbelief. "Don't tell me... Lord Zeldris is an Omega?" she questioned him. The disbelief grew even more, when her brother nodded his head to confirm it.

 "A pure one, to be exact. His scent is floral: roses and lavender." Byleth recounts. Almost on cue when he recalled the scent, the scent of roses and lavender evades his sense of smell. It was there momentarily, and then it was gone.
