#fetch quest

💜🤍💙🤍❤️

Blanket after blanket, pillow after pillow, fur after fur. All of them were arranged carefully on the massive bed you and your alphas shared, exactly as the omega in you was calling for.

You'd even pulled a few of your alphas' clothes from the hamper - the sweater Rhys had worn last night, Azriel's soft cotton shirt, and the shorts Cassian had worn this morning before leaving the house.

It was perfect, except...

You left the bedroom, heading off in search of Azriel.

It didn't take you long, only a few minutes to spot him. He was in the library, sitting in his favorite chair with piles of reports next to him and on his lap, a quill in hand.

Hazel eyes looked from parchment to you, nose scenting your impending heat with his next breath. Az sent his work away with his shadows, standing from his chair without wasting a moment.

"Do we need to locate the others, omega?" He asked as he wound his arms around you, eliciting a purr from your chest.

"Mhm, Cass was... shopping?" You couldn't quite remember where he'd said he was going, but you were sure that Az could find him. He could find anyone. "And Rhysie went to the Hewn City... So..." you trailed off, unsure if you'd be allowed to go with him to fetch Rhys, but your heart ached at even the idea of being away from him for a second.

"We'll find Cass first, then we'll go save Rhys from Keir's bellyaching."

Your purr only intensified at the promise you would be going with him, and you relaxed into his hold as he shadow-walked the two of you to into the city, starting in the Palace of Hoof and Leaf.

Cassian was halfway into the Palace, his arms filled with bags of vegetables, fruits, baked goods and meat, and currently standing in front of an herb master.

"Yes, I'd like a small satchel of-" Cassian's words were interrupted as he was shadow-walked to the Town House. "Basil," he sighed, looking slightly upset before scenting you. "Oh."

"Put everything away, quickly please. We still need to get Rhys," Azriel instructed him, a scarred hand now carding through your hair, nails scratching your scalp occasionally.

"Why can't you help me?" Cass complained. He looked to Azriel who had a brow quirked, noticing that you hadn't moved an inch from where you'd been standing, and if anything, you'd tightened your grip on him. "Damn, why'd I have to get groceries today," he grumbled playfully, picking up his pace for your sake.

In another minute, everything was put away, Cassian back at your side. His chest held you against Azriel as his arms wrapped around Az's torso, shadows carrying the three of you much farther, all the way to Rhys's meeting room in the Hewn City.

"What is the meaning of this?" A nasally voice asked, one that you hated. The acrid scent of evil alpha wafted from him, setting your nose on fire.

"Azriel?" Your body relaxed again just at the midnight voice of your third alpha, a trill slipping from your lips. You peered from between your alphas to look at him, see those pretty starry eyes that you loved so much, but your view was blocked by Keir.

You growled softly at the male, matching rumbles coming from the chests on either side of you.

Rhys was up and in front of you in an instant, violet eyes lit with concern until he scented you, concern giving way to arousal as he noticed the fire burning in your eyes.

He winnowed the four of you without a word to Keir, all of you landing in front of your nest.

You pushed each of them into your nest, each of them careful in not disturbing the edges - not yet, at least.

Finally, your nest was perfect. All you'd needed was your alphas.

You dove in, crawling to rest on top of Rhys. "It took way to long to get you," you complained. "And Keir smells bad."

Deep chuckles rumbled around you, each of your alphas humming their agreement.
