On Friday night, all the partners were gathered in the party room of the house, they were all quietly waiting for the announcements that the three crowns of Icarus Rose had to make, since that was the reason for that meeting, in which the only ones to attend were Icarus Rose's associates and their family, in meetings of this type it was forbidden to take minors because sometimes they touched on very sensitive topics.

Louis had promised the morning after the argument to talk a little more with Shawn, Zayn and Liam were working hard on improving the security of the house and at night enjoying their time alone, the alpha loved it when Zayn lay with him, especially when he had one of his shirts on, revealing his beautiful tummy that was already beginning to show, and talking to the twins about how happy everyone in the house was and that they were looking forward to them, sometimes he liked to tell them about how much he loved all three of them, and despite the fact that Zayn had already told him that they couldn't hear him yet, he didn't dare break the illusion with which he leaned into his belly to talk to their puppies and give them little kisses. Shawn and Niall had had time to go out a couple of times, getting to know each other a bit more and gaining confidence, Shawn could already make fun of Niall every time he stumbled and Niall already allowed himself to hold the omega's hand every time he was going to guide him somewhere, and one day before the party, Niall gave him a beautiful gold-plated engagement ring, with a small white stone adorning it, as he had explained, so they wouldn't ask so many questions that the omega would probably be very uncomfortable answering, and Shawn appreciated it.

Then the three crowns came out, taking their partners by the arm and showing themselves very proud, they knew the power they had and none of them hesitated to show it, Harry and Louis in matching suits, the omega in a cream-coloured suit and a green and grey cover-on on top, and the alpha in a suit of the same colour, but with stripes on the jacket and a tie of the same green as Harry's cover-on, while Zayn wore a pale pink suit with the jacket open, a small bulge could be seen on his belly, which he proudly showed, Liam held his hand wearing a completely black suit, Shawn wore a navy blue suit with green lapels and the shirt open, exposing his entire chest, but no one dared to look much for Horan stood beside him, imposing in the navy velvet suit, Shawn had accused him of spying on him because of that.

"Are you spying on me or why do you wear clothes the same colour as mine? Go change, they're going to think we're clingy, like Harry and Louis, they wear matching everything. Ugh, you know what? We're already late, forget it." They held hands and began their way to the event room.

And there they all were, under the watchful gaze of the guests, their eyes drifting from the mark on Harry's neck to Niall's hand on Shawn's waist, not quite knowing what to say.

"Welcome once again to our home, dear partners," Zayn called out for better hearing, with a smile, "as you know, we have some big announcements from the three main crowns of Icarus Rose, and I'm pleased to announce the first one." He unconsciously put one hand to his stomach and with the other squeezed Liam's hand. Mr. Payne and I are expecting not one, but two puppies, which we hope will be born healthy."

A horde of applause filled the hall, some even shouting congratulations, even though they knew it was simply because Icarus Rose already had an heir secured.

"The second big news is that Mr. Styles is officially my omega, and I hope he gets the respect he deserves as such." Louis announced with a proud smile, hugging Harry a little closer to him, Harry smiled shyly and waved at the presents by hand.

"And as a last bit of news, I'm pleased to announce my engagement to Shawn Mendes, son of our new partner Michael Mendes, Swallow's boss." Niall took Shawn's hand and raised it with a small smile, as they had agreed that no one else should know that it was a planned engagement, Shawn also smiled, imagining that he was doing it out of love and not for business.

The congratulations to the three couples did not wait, some people complimented them as they were a beautiful couple, some complimented the omegas on how radiant they looked, and the alphas were reminded how lucky they were to have as partners such beautiful omegas, a few wished them good luck and the party continued, because if Icarus Rose was characterised by something more than their power, it was for being good hosts at their events, there was always alcohol and good company, and if they felt generous probably even drugs.

And while Harry, Louis, Zayn, and Liam talked to the guests about new business deals, Shawn and Niall were in a corner by the bar, chatting with the goal of getting to know each other a bit more and having a drink.

"And where would you like to travel? I mean, if we're going to go on vacation because of this, let it be somewhere where we can have fun." Niall asked in an Irish accent that was even thicker due to the alcohol in his system.

"Italy is beautiful, I went on vacation a couple of times there when I was little, or could we make several stops? You could take me to Ireland, I've been a couple of times but I've never been guided around the city by someone from there." Shawn proposed with a little smile.

"The best beer is from Ireland, we can have a good time there." Niall nodded, they both laughed until a rather sweet smell of honey began to invade them, as well as an intoxicating smell of chocolate, Niall's eyes darkened.

"Niall?" Shawn mused, approaching the alpha, his omega was looking for contact with the one who gave off that smell of chocolate, and that alpha turned out to be the blonde in front of him.

He crushed his lips with the blond's in a needy kiss, and Niall dropped his glass to wrap his hands around the omega's waist; they had gone into heat, in the middle of a party with partners and before their time.

"Do you want to go up, omega?" Niall asked hoarsely in a whisper, Shawn nodded and they held hands to run away.

They stumbled to the alpha's room, and as soon as the door closed, Niall cornered Shawn against the wood and began to kiss him urgently, the omega's natural lube had already passed through the suit cloth, and feeling that liquid in his hands made the alpha go completely crazy.

"Niall...Hurry up, it hurts." Shawn pleaded in a sigh.

"Do you take birth-control pills?" Niall asked, mostly because his rational part was still a bit conscious, but he knew perfectly well that he wouldn't let the omega out of there, Shawn nodded energetically. "Perfect, that way we avoid surprises before time, now let me help you with this."

The omega started to unbutton his shirt but it didn't seem to be fast enough as the alpha forced it open, causing the small buttons to jump to the floor. He kissed the omega's neck as he undid his coat and shirt and tossed them somewhere on the floor. The omega was not far behind, he wanted to feel the heat of the alpha in front of him in its entirety and when the blond noticed that he was unbuttoning his jacket, he got rid of it and took off his shirt without problems.

Niall took him in his arms and carried him to the bed, where he dropped him abruptly causing a soft moan to come out of the omega's lips, which only caused the alpha's impatience to increase. The alpha was leaving a path of kisses while he went down to the beginning of the omega's pants where a notorious bulge had formed and the blond couldn't help but smile.

"Niall, I swear that if you don't do it, I'm going to..." the alpha began to place kisses on the omega's sensitive area, making it impossible for him to end his threat. Niall got rid of the belt that held the omega's trousers and began to tie it in a way that left two loops, the omega looked at him with and frowned a little but when he felt the alpha's hands in his he knew what he would do.

"Would you mind putting your hands here?" He asked as he held the belt in front of Shawn, he settled better on the bed and smiled, and that was all the alpha needed to continue with his plan.

Once the omega put his hands through both loops, the alpha adjusted the belt so that he couldn't get his hands out and Shawn raised his arms until he reached the back of the bed and held on to what he could. The omega's trousers flew to fall on a chair near the door and his underwear fell on the opposite side of it. The temperature in the room had risen completely, both of their breaths were agitated and their hearts were pounding. They needed each other, their natural instincts screamed for the bond to be created and they didn't waste a second in following what their bodies demanded.

The blond got rid of his own trousers and underwear and threw them on the ground while kissing the omega's neck, which was already full of red marks that would fade with time.

"It's probably not the time to ask anymore, but you're okay with this, right?" The older man asked breathlessly while he took the curly man's hips and placed him on his lap.

"Just do it and shut up," the omega ordered and a flirtatious smile appeared on the alpha's face. He inserted his index finger into the lubricated hole of the omega, and he let out a soft sigh, which was the signal for him to start making circular movements and finally inserted one more. "I'm ready, please. Just do it, Niall. I can't take it anymore. Please, please, I am begging you." cried out the omega, needing the pleasure to fill his body.

"Shh... calm down, omega, I don't want to hurt you." The blue-eyed man raised the omega with one of his arms and guided his erection to the entrance with the other and slowly introduced himself. The omega's back arched and his lips parted at the relief, the alpha closed his eyes and lifted his face up. The pleasure was too much for both of them.

Once he was completely inside, the alpha stayed still for the brunette to get used to his size and when the urge returned Niall began to move his hips back and forth slowly, scanning the omega's face for any sign of pain, but all he felt was pleasure.

The blond brought one of Shawn's legs up to his shoulder and with his other hand he took his hip to have a more comfortable position, and began to increase the speed of the thrusts, both were consumed with pleasure, their skins glowing with heat, sweat covered them and moans of pleasure filled the room. The omega's hands clung tightly to the headboard of the bed and with that prevented it from colliding with the wall, his back was arched and he kept his eyes closed tightly.

"Niall." He moaned as he felt that the alpha had begun to place soft bites on the inside of his leg, right in the most sensitive area of it. He brought both legs to the alpha's hips and let go off the head of the bed, Niall noticed what he was trying to do and decided to follow him, he turned around carefully and they changed positions, now the blonde was lying on the bed and Shawn was on top of him, his tied hands rested on the alpha's chest while his hands clung to the omega's hips.

"So you like being on top?" He asked playfully, and Shawn laughed. He rose to a sitting position and began to kiss the omega slowly on his lips.

Shawn began to jump on Niall's hips, and with the help of the alpha's grip his movements were deeper, their speed increased and nothing was heard in that room except for their moans and gasps, the sheets were undone and anyone passing by could smell the honey and chocolate mixed together.

They felt like they were going to reach ecstasy, and as the knot began to expand, Niall's abdomen was stained with white, Shawn felt full and satisfied, and he let the alpha know with a loud moan, he fell onto his chest. carefully, hiding his face in the alpha's neck.

"You're a very stupid and arrogant alpha, but let me tell you that you haven't disappointed me in this. I'll give you that." He muttered barely in a breath, Niall laughed and began to caress his back.

"And there's still a couple of hours left, honey." He whispered playfully into the omega's ear. "Let me untie you so we can rest for a while."

☺☻☺☻

Twenty-four hours later, Niall was hugging the omega very comfortably around the waist, who was turning his back on him, but enjoying the warmth of the alpha behind him, until the light began to disturb his sleep.

He woke up suddenly and hit the blonde, who woke up in a hurry, quickly moved his arm away from the omega and lay on his back, breathing hard.

"Damn it, Niall," Shawn claimed, covering himself even more with the sheet, "what were we thinking?"

"Hey! Don't take the sheet away from me, I need it too." Said the alpha pulling the white sheet, Shawn rolled his eyes and hit him once more.

"Don't you see the situation we are in?" He looked carefully at the alpha's chest, which was full of scratches and hickeys, then he hurried to look at himself in the mirror, his neck was red, revealing what had happened. "My father is going to kill us, he is going to murder us and hang our heads out of the mansion, all because you can't keep your dick in your pants!"

"Sorry? You practically begged me last time, so we're even." The alpha counterattacked.

"And who got into his heat in the middle of an important party, genius?" He pushed the alpha. "My heat is not supposed to arrive in at least a week."

"Well, it seems that it went ahead, because mine was in a month." They both thought about it for a moment and looked at each other for a few seconds, realising the situation.

"Did you put something in my drink, Horan?" The omega asked suspiciously, the alpha's expression deformed to one of indignation.

"How dare you accuse me of something like that? Of course not." Replied the blonde.

They remained silent for a moment, thinking about what had happened while they stared at each other, and although Shawn wanted to deny it, the truth is that he needed to spend his heat with someone for a long time, it was never the same to spend it with a piece of plastic than receiving the help of an alpha, a very handsome and strong alpha, he smiled playfully as Niall turned to grab a change of clothing to finally cover his nudity.

"Or maybe, I think I have an idea..." Shawn began with a small smile, Niall looked at him again and the omega began to get dressed very slowly. "We're going to get married, and I don't think you can be in abstinence for so long."

"Where do you want to get with this, omega?" Asked the blond, imagining what the curly was up to.

"I'm saying that we can take advantage of this deal," he answered emphatically, "I don't want to spend my heats alone anymore, and I don't think you want that either, and besides that, we could actually have a fun time with this, don't you think?"

"And who said that I spent my heats alone?" The alpha raised an eyebrow and Shawn rolled his eyes, although a little surprised at that confession. Of course one of the most powerful alphas in the business would spend his heat with like seven omegas at the same time.

"But, according to society, you are now an engaged man, in a few months married. You will not be able to take the liberty of asking for omegas to help you in your heat, not without leaving this house."

"Is what I hear jealousy?" Niall asked with a flirtatious smile.

"Do you accept or not, Horan?" He asked bluntly. He was not jealous at all, who would get jealous at the thought of some omegas touching his fiance? He definitely wouldn't.

"Do you think I would actually decline that offer after spending the last twenty-four hours like we did?" The omega raised his eyebrow and smiled, he won again. "See you tomorrow to go for a walk, do you think?"

After accepting the invitation, Shawn left the alpha's room to go to his, with all the discretion he could, although he didn't take into account that a certain curly omega would be walking around. Harry looked at Shawn with a small smile, but when he noticed the marks on his neck and the room he was walking out of, he brought a hand to his mouth and his eyes widened.

"What..." The green-eyed man couldn't continue because Shawn covered his mouth with his hand.

"Harry, what are you doing here so late? Shouldn't you be with Louis?"

"Are you sleeping with Niall?" He asked, ignoring what Shawn had just said. "Since when? And why didn't you tell me? It can't be! I feel offended by the fact that you didn't tell me." Harry was about to freak out, but Shawn cut him off before he continued with his questions and drama.

"My heat started before it should have, and he was close. What did you want me to do?" The younger omega muttered, turning to both sides to make sure that no one would hear him. "I think now we have some kind of agreement, or something like that."

"But you don't waste time," Harry replied, amused, "also, you're taking care of yourself, right? Do you take birth-control pills or something? Because I don't think your father would be too happy about you getting pregnant this early, he would kill both of you, plus you're still very young."

"Of course I'm taking care of myself, Harry, who do you take me for?" Shawn closed his eyes for a moment. "I think I'll go to sleep, I'm very tired, don't tell anyone about this, okay? Please, I am asking you for a favour here. I trust you."

Both omegas said goodbye and walked in opposite directions, as Shawn turned left into the hallway, Harry ran to his room and rushed inside.

"LOUUUU, GUESS WHAT I JUST FOUND OUT!" He yelled as soon as he entered the room, where his alpha was waiting for him with open arms and a huge smile.

It was okay if he told the alpha about him, he wouldn't tell anyone anyway.
