As soon as you took off running you knew that you'd made the biggest mistake of your life but you tried to keep it together and not start screaming as you ran down the hallway looking for any path that led away from the surveillance room and the three Alphas that you could hear now gaining on you. You'd almost given up hope when you saw a hallway that crossed the one you were on and in a snap decision you turned to the right and almost hit your knees when you saw the Avengers running towards you.

"DOWN NOW!" Steve yelled at you as he lifted the gun in his hands and you instantly hit your knees and slid to a stop as he took aim and fired directly at the first Alpha in his sights that just so happened to be the female. Without even knowing what hit her, she hit the floor dead with blood dripping from the wound between her eyes. The other two staggered to a halt but looked up at Steve with rage and hate simmering in their eyes as they both growled at him.

You'd just managed to stand up when you felt a hand close around your neck and throwing caution to the wind you screamed and Steve immediately put bullets between the other two Alphas eyes and turned on his heel to see what was going on. As soon as he registered what was going on, his face drained of all color and he took a step forward only to be stopped by Tony and Bucky.

"Steve... he's ruthless. He'll snap her neck just to prove that he can and won't feel anything when he does." Bucky said in a low, carrying voice as you dangled just above the floor where the biggest of the Alphas kept you with his hand firmly around your neck and you mentally cursed yourself over and over again for not making sure that the two you'd tazed were actually out cold. The Alpha slowly lowered you to the floor and then in a move that made you almost sick to your stomach buried his face in your neck and inhaled.

You squirmed and whimpered, not in pleasure but in discomfort and you watched as Steve's eyes went almost black with rage as the rest of the team had to hold him back from throwing himself at the Alpha who had now started to paw at you as tears began to stream down your face. "You should've kept a closer eye on this little Omega." He said with a thick Russian accent as his hands continued to roam all over you and you fought down the bile rising in your throat.

Suddenly, you heard Wanda's voice in your head again saying, "Do you trust me?" Your eyes flicked to hers and you furrowed your brow but answered inside your head, "Of course I trust you." You kept your eyes on her trying hard to ignore the Alpha that was now growling at Steve that he'd like nothing more than to rip your clothes off and take you in front of all of them to show that the Avengers were worthless. Wanda's eyes slowly closed and you knew exactly what she was going to do before her eyes shot open. The Alpha, who was too busy making a speech to realize his fatal mistake, looked up just as her glowing scarlet eyes locked with his and she launched herself at him and her fingers made contact with his temples and he dropped to his knees screaming in agony.

His hand tightened around your throat cutting off all air flow and for a moment you panicked and you could see that Steve was panicking too but then the Alpha's hand spasmed and you used the opportunity to jerk free from his grasp. Several things happened all at once as soon as you were free from him. Tony, Bucky, Natasha, and Steve all aimed at the Alpha and fired simultaneously while Sam, Loki, Thor and Bruce all ran for you as you leaned gasping and coughing against the wall. Wanda shielded herself from the bullets that punched into the Alpha's skull and he fell flat on his back dead as a door nail as Natasha, Tony and Bucky all walked over to him to make sure that he was in fact truly dead.

Everyone had looks of relief on their faces as they started to calm down now that you were safe. Everyone except Steve that is, who turned on his heel and marched up to you and yanked you off the wall and stooped low and picked you up bridal style and turned and began sprinting back towards what you could only assume was the entrance to the building. Several of the other Avengers yelled as soon as he took off but of course you two were long gone by the time they'd actually processed what he had done and where you two were going and the only one fast enough to actually catch up with you two was Bucky but after about five minutes you figured that he wasn't going to follow because one he probably didn't know which way you were going and two he didn't want to risk the brunt of Steve's fury if he did follow.

You kept your arms wrapped tightly around Steve's neck as you took in your surroundings. Soon enough though he was out the front doors and striding towards the quinjet and that's when your nerves took over as you snuck a side glance at him and saw that his jaw was set hard once again and his eyes were still a dark ocean blue though they'd lightened considerably. The soles of his combat boots thumped against the metal ramp of the quinjet and you felt your heart skip a beat in your chest and you took several deep breaths to try and calm yourself down as he made his way to the nurses's station. "Check her over, make sure she's fine then leave us." He said gruffly to Dr. Cho who looked up startled as he stormed through the door and laid you down in the Cradle.

Dr. Cho simply took one look at you and then nodded as Steve put a hand to his ear and hissed, "You will give us some alone time with each other or I swear on everything I love I'll personally rip every one of your throats out. Keeping us apart is what caused all of this shit to begin with." You swallowed hard and thanked God that you didn't have your comm anymore and couldn't hear what the team was saying that was getting him so riled up again.

About that time though, Dr. Cho began checking you over and after a while nodded said that you should be fine but that you'd need to take it easy for a few weeks to let your body recover from the stress it was suddenly thrown under. Steve wasted no time in yanking you back up into his arms and storming out of the room turning his head this way and that until he finally found an empty room that he strode into and kicked the door closed behind you both.

You'd looked around briefly before, as he'd carried you in, and you hadn't seen any light at all so when the door slammed shut behind him you were plunged into complete darkness and as much as it scared you being inside a pitch black room with a very highly pissed off Steve, it also turned you on and you felt the heat under your skin flash white hot and you whimpered softly hoping that Steve would be able to control himself.

"What. Were. You. Thinking?" He growled in a deathly quiet voice that made goosebumps erupt all over your flesh. You took several deep breaths and answered in a small voice that sounded so childish that you wanted to cringe and curl up into a ball because of, "I don't know." It was quiet for several very tense moments and then you heard him start moving but due to the darkness of the room you couldn't see exactly what he was doing. You were just about to open your mouth and ask him what he was doing when you heard him say, "If I were you I wouldn't come to the sleep quarters any time soon. She and I are having a... discussion."

It occurred to you then that he was talking to the team on the comm and you heard him take the comm out of his ear and walk over to the door and open it briefly and throw the earpiece back up the hallway along with the mic that was hidden in the sleeve of his suit. You stood rooted to the spot as the guilt and dread built up inside you and made themselves manifest as tears slowly streaming down your already tear stained cheeks. Keeping the door open, he spun around and grabbed your arm and dug the mic out of the sleeve of your suit and threw it into the hallway as well and then kicked the door shut once again.

The silence was almost deafening and you were almost willing to get on your hands and knees and beg him to say something anything just talk. You'd rather him scream at you than to stand there in the dark and not say anything while your mind played tricks on you. You took two steps backwards and felt the backs of your knees hit something that caused you to sit down hard with a small gasp and you heard Steve walk towards where he'd heard the gasp from and suddenly he was on top of you.

"Do you have any fucking idea how worried I was?" He growled as he brushed your hair from your face. You bit your lip as the heat that had been raging all through your body pooled between your legs and you felt yourself slick just from the contact of his fingers on your skin alone. That gush of slick did not go unnoticed by Steve who inhaled and groaned darkly as he shuddered trying to stay in control of his urge to mate you on the spot.

"Could've killed you." He growled as he leaned down and kissed you and you both moaned. "Fucking Alpha touching my Omega." He snarled in your ear and you knew then and there he'd lost the battle within himself. He stayed absolutely stock still and looked down at you and asked, "I want you... but I want your permission more." You felt like you'd been lit on fire and you nodded and then realized that he couldn't see you in the dark and you found your voice and moaned huskily, "Fuck me, Steve."
