The room was quiet, almost sacred, heavy with anticipation. Gao Tu stood before Shen Wen Lang, Omega instincts thrumming beneath the surface, heart hammering in ways words could never express. The child clung to Gao Tu's side, sensing the charged atmosphere, small hands unconsciously tugging at his coat.
Wen Lang approached, Alpha presence undeniable, every step deliberate, every glance a claim. "We can't avoid this any longer," he murmured, voice low, commanding, yet threaded with something softer, something that spoke to long-buried desire.
Gao Tu's chest tightened. "I… I know," he admitted, eyes lowered. Omega instincts surged; his scent rose subtly, betraying every shiver of longing he could no longer hide. "I… can't deny it anymore."
Wen Lang reached out, hand hovering just above Gao Tu's, a silent assertion of dominance, a promise of protection and possession. "Then we'll do this properly," he said, lips brushing near the ear, a whisper heavy with authority and intimacy. "Marriage. For you. For our son. For us."
Gao Tu's knees threatened to buckle under the weight of emotion. "I… I—yes," he breathed, surrender threading his voice, Omega instincts giving in completely to the Alpha who had always held him in thrall.
The ceremony was intimate, private, a seal of bond more than tradition—hands clasped, vows whispered in tones thick with desire, longing, and recognition. Wen Lang's hand pressed gently, possessively over Gao Tu's, a physical claim that left no room for denial.
"You are mine," Wen Lang murmured softly, dominance and devotion entwined, "and you always will be."
Gao Tu's breath hitched, Omega vulnerability shining through. "And you… are mine," he whispered, surrender absolute. Desire, long simmering, finally found expression in this union, binding them as Alpha, Omega, and family—indivisible, undeniable.
As they stood together, the child between them, the tension of months of hidden longing dissolved into the quiet warmth of a new beginning. Marriage, not just a promise, but a recognition of desire, destiny, and the bonds that could no longer be ignored.
