The days passed quickly in the Icarus Rose mansion. Zayn and Harry were secretly planning something, and every time Louis asked his omega what it was, he simply hid on his neck and began to place small soft kisses in that area until his alpha forgot about the subject. Harry had started taking milder suppressants that didn't hide his scent at all, he knew he couldn't have a puppy that fast with Louis, he wanted to enjoy some time of being just his and his alpha.

Jane arrived at the house on December 20 along with Stella, they brought many gifts and were eager to help prepare dinner with Barbara, with whom she continued to maintain contact after meeting.

"My little puppy, look how radiant you look. You're doing a great job, Louis." The omega had said as soon as they all entered the house together.

December 24th approached faster than expected, and although the omegas of the house had already gone shopping for that special day, Harry felt nervous. How would Louis react? Is it the right thing to do all this? He couldn't stop thinking about a thousand things that could go wrong while he bathed and perfumed himself. Thanks to Zayn he had the opportunity to be alone at that moment, because he had sent Louis with Niall to buy some things that were missing for dinner. If it had been the alpha's decision whether to stay or to go, he would have stayed there with the omega all day, and he had expressed as soon as he was woken up by soft kisses from Harry.

Once he was ready, he put on a transparent pastel blue tunic with glitter and a fluffy material at the end of the sleeves and on the part of the fabric that dragged on the ground, he adjusted the tunic's ribbon at his waist and began to comb his curls, which were already considerably longer, although not long enough to be able to tie his hair up, he took off the necklace that had the ring and after thinking for a few minutes, he took it off the chain and put it on his right ring finger, he finally sat down on the bed to wait for his alpha, who should not be long in coming.

Footsteps began to approach the door, a certain nervousness appearing in Harry's chest, it had been so long since he had done something like this. What if he was rejected? What if things were not as he thought? But the door opened and his gaze met orbs as blue as the ice and deep as any ocean.

"H-Harry?" He asked in surprise as he watched from the doorway. "What are you doing?"

"I'm also glad to see you again, alpha." The curly one stood up and approached the alpha, who only looked at his actions with confusion. "Happy birthday." He said with a smile on his face, Louis only returned the smile without being able to take his gaze off from the omega.

Harry grabbed the tie from the alpha, who kicked the door closed, and guided him to the bed, sitting once more on the edge of it. Louis positioned himself over Harry without touching his body, still a bit confused by the situation.

"You know Lou," he began sweetly, "I've been thinking a lot about us... and about what you said to me that night." He brought his hands up to the alpha's shoulders and stroked him gently.

"What did you... what night?" He asked awkwardly, thanks to the different emotions he was starting to feel. Harry smiled widely and placed a soft kiss on his alpha's lips, and carefully took his hand and brought it up to his neck.

"Notice anything different?" The alpha's gaze lowered to the omega's neck where his hand remained, he slowly caressed the area realising that the necklace was not there, he looked into his eyes and separated to see his omega's hand, noticing that his ring was now on the right ring finger of his omega's hand.

"Are you... are you serious?" He asked with a huge smile on his face, Harry nodded feeling the same emotion as the alpha and they both wrapped themselves in a hug. "You don't know how happy that news makes me, I'm the luckiest alpha alive."

The omega wrapped his legs around the alpha's waist while he twirled with joy. A passionate kiss united them even more at the moment, the alpha put his hands on the omega's hips and he let out a soft moan, making the alpha move, surprised, as this was the first time he had heard such a sound leave his lips, but that's when it all made just a little more sense.

"Are you...?" He asked without knowing exactly how he could accommodate his words, however when he brought his hands to Harry's thighs he felt a liquid fall down them, the omega could only bite his lips and close his eyes tightly. "Why didn't you tell me? You must be in a lot of pain right now." Calmly he began to walk back to the bed while leaving kisses on the omega's neck.

"I wanted to do things right, plus I haven't had my heat in a long time, because of all the hormones that suppressants release. The doctor told me it'll probably be too short." He sighed, Louis smiled at his words and settled the curly into the centre of the bed, and then he took off his shoes and positioned himself and Harry in a way that they were both comfortable.

"Do you want to do this? Are you sure?" He asked before doing anything.

"Y-yes." The omega barely muttered, the blue-eyed man caressed his face and began to spread small kisses on the curly-haired man's skin. He took his hand and delicately left a kiss on the ring. It was such a simple gesture, but it meant so many things to both of them.

"I'm going to make you feel better, love. Are you going to let your alpha help you?" Harry nodded and Louis began to trail his kisses down to his neck where he would leave his mark in no time, he smirked at the thought. "You look beautiful, Hazz, but I think that we don't really need this right now."

He undid the knot that held the robe around Harry's waist and opened it, revealing the tattooed skin of his omega. He began kissing every inch of skin in sight, the only sound that was heard were the soft moans of the omega echoing through the room.

"Lou. It... It hurts." Harry pleaded softly, the alpha untied the robe completely and tossed it somewhere in the room.

"Do you want me to help ease your pain, omega?" The alpha was already loosening his tie, and Harry nodded frantically in response.

"I need you, Lou, please." He whispered through a moan of pleasure and pain.

After those words, the alpha proceeded to get rid of his shirt and then throw it to the ground. It didn't take long for the temperature in the room to rise as the various scents began to fill the air. The oceans and the forests met in a deep gaze, just as a sweet intoxicant scent flooded the room.

Louis' clothes began to fly around the room, and before they knew it their bodies were touching for the first time. Both hearts beat in sync as their most primitive senses began to dominate them. They were no longer Harry and Louis, a mafia crown and a bodyguard, they now were just alpha and omega letting themselves free together for the first time.

"Lou..." He moaned as he felt the alpha's lips slide down his abdomen. The alpha left marks everywhere as he tried to enjoy every moment, every touch and kiss.

"Hazz... This isn't your first time, right?" He asked with a curious smile on his face, earning a chuckle from Harry.

"No,why do you ask?" The alpha reached up and cupped Harry's hips, settling on top of his pelvis. The omega couldn't help but let out a moan at the contact.

"Just asking." He smiled again and kissed him. He began to make slow movements with his hips to increase the friction.

"Lou, please." The omega begged.

"Please what, darling?" The alpha increased the pace of his hips and Harry moaned a little louder.

"I need you now, please." Harry's lube dripped from between his legs, staining the sheets. Louis slowly lowered his hand to Harry's entrance and inserted a finger, although the omega was already more than ready, he was tempted to taste some of that sweet juice, but he would leave that for another day.

They could swear that Harry's screams could be heard outside the room, but whether or not someone heard them didn't matter. From one finger he went on to insert two, then three until the omega was practically crying for more.

Louis settled better between Harry's legs, enjoying the omega's impatient expression a little, he entered painfully slowly. The omega felt like he was going mad, he moved down a little, because he already needed to feel his alpha filling him. When he finally entered completely inside the omega, he stayed as still as he could, waiting for Harry to get used to the feeling and to not cause him any pain.

Sensing that the omega was already better, he began to move his hips with slow and deep movements, increasing the intensity of his thrusts little by little. Harry felt that he was floating, flying, he had never felt anything like that with anyone else. It seemed that with Louis everything was different. The alpha hit a certain spot inside the curly omega that made him moan louder. He pressed his index finger on his omega's lips and spoke directly into his ear.

"Shhh, they're going to listen to us, honey. Do you want everyone in the house to hear how I make you mine? Are we going to make it clear to everyone who your alpha is?" The thrusts increased in intensity and velocity.

The omega barely understood what the alpha was saying, soft sighs and gasps coming from Harry's lips, still with Louis's finger preventing them from coming out any louder. The alpha hid his face in the omega's neck and began to kiss there, leaving saliva and some marks that would be erased over time.

"You're such a good omega, receiving your alpha so well." Louis moaned, burying his hands on Harry's hips, his lips still glued to his neck.

With the same grip, Louis turned them so that Harry was now on top of him, and smiled.

"I want you to do some little jumps for me, okay?" He said, feeling the beating of his heart increase with intensity when the omega nodded.

He got down on his knees and put his arms on the sides of his alpha's head and before he could start the moves, Louis sat up a bit and caught Harry's lips with his own, a smile on his face. He began to move up and down slowly, noting the look of pleasure his alpha wore.

"Hazz..." Louis moaned, taking his hands to his back and caressing it with his fingertips, sending small electric shocks to the omega's senses.

Harry began to move his hips faster little by little, having more control of the situation, feeling how his alpha filled him completely and the sweat fell moistening his skin.

"Lou, I'm close..." Harry gasped and the blue eyed boy knew it was time.

He sank his teeth into the white skin of Harry's neck, at the same time the omega stained both abdomens and the knot of the alpha swelled, emptying himself into the curly omega.

His curly omega.

Small drops of that red liquid fell down the curly's shoulder, but pain was the last thing he could feel at that moment. The alpha licked the wound to heal it, and moved so as not to hurt Harry as the knot went down, he started kissing his cheeks and stroking his curls with a huge tired smile on his face. At last they belonged to each other completely. Louis felt like he truly was the luckiest alpha in the world. From that moment on, his birthday would no longer be a sad date, because he would not only remember that his parents rejected him and took him out of his house, now he would remember that on his birthday he was finally able to mark his omega.

"I love you." The alpha whispered. Harry looked up and a small tear fell down his cheek.

"And I... I love you, my alpha." And that was how they both finally joined as one.

They waited for the knot to go down and for both of them to calm down before getting up to take a bath. No one could put into words the happiness that filled their hearts at that moment, for Louis it was finally proving to himself that after almost fifteen years after his father kicked him out of his home because he was attracted to male omegas, he had found his omega, his man, and simply the love of his life. And for Harry... for Harry it was finally discovering that no matter what he had been through, there was still someone perfect for him, who knew perfectly well that he would not leave him alone at any time. They had found their home in each other's hands.

They both got dressed and hugged one last time before leaving the room. The beautiful bite on the omega's neck almost shone before the alpha's eyes, they couldn't wait to see everyone's reactions upon hearing the newest news.

☺☻☺☻

"Zayn, I swear if you don't let me try at least a little of the cake I'm going to..."

"What are you going to do little Irishman?" Liam interrupted, his tone even more threatening than Niall's.

"I'm going to..." He looked down at the table for something that might be of help, picked up the first cutlery he found and tossed it to Liam.

"A spoon? Seriously Niall, is that all you got?" Barbara shook her head as she finished arranging things on the table with Stella's help.

"If you're going to be throwing things like little kids doing tantrums, then you should go out and throw snowballs at each other in the yard." Commented the beta with annoyance in her voice, although she was actually very amused by the situation.

"Or they could actually start acting like the adults they are supposed to be." Zayn scolded as he picked up the spoon from the floor and placed it on the table.

"I just want to try some of the..." The blond trailed off as Harry and Louis entered the dining room, they were holding hands.

"Until they finally decided to come down. What were you two doing up there?" Zayn asked as he approached with the intention of taking Harry's hand to lead him to the table next to him, but knowing full well what had happened he took his gaze to the omega's neck and screamed.

"OH FOR THE LOVE OF... THIS CAN'T BE REAL." All alarmed at Zayn's screams ran to where Harry was. "YOU FINALLY BIT HIM!" Uncontrollable tears began to fall down Zayn's face, who jumped with happiness.

"What did you just say?!" Niall asked, moving closer, but a growl from Louis stopped him. Jane ran up to her son and looked at his neck with a huge smile on her face.

"I can't believe it," she kissed her son's cheek and looked at the alpha, "I'm so glad to hear that you both finally decided to take that step. You're officially part of the Styles family, Louis."

The alpha walked over to Jane and hugged her, whispering a soft 'thank you' in her ear. Liam and Barbara came over afterwards to congratulate the couple on such an event, this was definitely going to be a memorable Christmas Eve. After the table was ready, everyone sat down and waited for dinner to be served. There was a beautiful red tablecloth with white roses woven into it, some candles lit up the place making everything feel more homey, but what really gave the atmosphere and that familiar touch was the company.

"I think we should eat the cake first, to celebrate that Louis is no longer a virgin." Niall commented, causing Louis to choke on his wine, while the others bursted out laughing.

"Of all the things you could have said in front of my mom, you had to choose to say the worst of them all, Niall." Harry complained once Louis stopped coughing. The blond just shrugged proudly at his comment, Jane moved her head from side to side and tasted some of her wine.

"What about the wine? Do you like it?" Liam asked in an attempt to change the subject. "It's from Louis's vineyard."

"It's delicious, I didn't know you had a vineyard."

"Among other things, Niall also owns a brewery and Liam has a chain of hotels throughout the world, and Zayn... I won't even mention it." Louis added, earning a curious look from Jane, letting Louis know that he wanted to know more. "I told Harry I'd take him to my vineyard actually, but we haven't had time yet."

"It would be good if you taught him a bit about the wine business, so maybe he can help you with that later." Zayn added and a smile appeared on Louis's face, he wouldn't deny that a little help with all his responsibilities would be perfect for him.

After a few minutes dinner was served, there was a huge turkey in the centre of the table, they had also prepared mashed potatoes, salads, and for dessert some Mince pies especially for Niall, since they always tried to include something original from Ireland, and finally the birthday cake for Louis. They sang happy birthday to him and so the night passed between laughter and drunken comments between Niall and Liam, while Stella chatted a bit with Zayn and Louis told Jane about many of the properties that were under his name and the many others that would be under Harry's name.

"Well Niall, do you have any ladies in your sights?" Jane asked as she drank some wine.

"Not necessarily a lady." The blond replied with a small smile. "There is an omega who is the son of one of the partners that interests me, but I have to properly meet him first."

"Whose son?" Zayn interrupted suddenly, with emotion bathing his voice. "Don't tell me it's the omega with whom we saw you very playful in the last meeting, I already knew you were up to something."

"Well, yes," Niall said, bringing the glass to his lips, took a drink and continued, "he's Mr. Mendes's son, we had already crossed paths on my trip to the United States, but let's say we started off on the wrong foot."

"Lucky for you, my dear Niall, in a month Mendes will be back to close deals, and with some luck he'll bring your new conquest with him." Zayn winked at the alpha and he let out a laugh.

In the middle of the talk, twelve o'clock struck and all those present began to hug each other and wish each other Merry Christmas, they gave one last toast and half an hour later the atmosphere had dimmed a bit due to fatigue.

"Well," Zayn called as he stood up, "I think I should go back to bed, I'm very happy to have spent the night with you, and of course, I want to thank Jane and Stella for accepting us as their family." She stood up and took Zayn's hand.

"On the contrary, Zayn, thanks for everything, for taking care of my puppy and welcoming us into your home," the omega thanked before standing up as well, "I'll go to bed too, it's already quite late." Harry got up to give her a hug. He kissed his mother and motioned for one of the guards to accompany her to her room.

Louis kept his arm on Harry's chair as he drank his glass of wine and thoughts ran through his mind, Stella left as well but not before congratulating Harry on being marked, assuring him that they would have to talk about it at some point. .

"Are you tired, love?" Asked the alpha, and a smile appeared on the curly's face. He walked over to the alpha's chair and stroked his cheek.

"No... Do you have something on your mind?" Without another word the alpha stood up and took his omega's hand to run to his room.

The bed was back as before and there were no clothes on the floor as they had left it, Harry's cheeks flushed with embarrassment at the simple thought that the housemaids had entered the room and seen what they had done. Though his alpha's lips snapped him out of his thoughts. Louis sat on the edge of the bed and pulled Harry close to him, wrapping his arms around his waist and looking up to meet those green orbs that drove him crazy.

"Ready for round two?" he asked playfully and Harry let out a laugh.

"The real Louis is now coming out into the world," he joked and sat on his alpha's lap, put his arms around his shoulders and stole a short kiss from him, "if I had known, I would have walked into your room that night when you had your heat, that way I would have helped you as you helped me." Something in his voice was different, his words were sweeter to the alpha's ears.

"Well, there's still time." A smile on Harry's face was the signal Louis needed to start kissing his neck, right where the fresh bite was. "My omega."

"My alpha."

Happy Birthday to Harry! Today, February 1st, 29 years ago our little star was born.

I found it quite funny the fact that today's chapter was all about Louis' birthday, and in reality it's Harry's, you know? What a great coincidence haha.
