The voiceover fromthe educational video echoed around the classroom. Jason slouched near the back with his best friend, Xan, at his side. Like all the other alphas in the room, they sat in complete stillness, erections aching against the front of their trousers.
The film displayed a naked omega already deep in heat. He was beautiful with dark hair, pale skin, and long muscles. The film wasn’t of good enough quality to determine the color of the omega’s eyes, but they looked pale, perhaps blue or green. He was exactly the type of boy who caught Jason’s eye. Seeing him on display in the film, eager and vulnerable, left Jason breathless with arousal.
On all fours, back arched, the omega lifted his ass. His crack and hole glistened with the slick of his arousal and need. Jason’s mouth watered as the omega in the video frantically moved his hand over his swollen dick and cast desperate glances over his shoulder toward his young but thickly muscled alpha. The word ‘please’ was easy to read on the omega’s ripe mouth, as he squirmed and arched.
His alpha, dark and powerful, stood to the side of the bed, his massive cock engorged, and fixed his omega with a commanding stare. As he climbed on top of the boy’s straining back and pushed inside, the voiceover droned on:
“When in the throes of heat, the omega presents himself to his alpha shamelessly. Instinct pushes him to be bred, and he will go to any length to achieve his biological goal. It’s important to remember an omega in heat without an alpha to meet his needs is a danger to himself. If you must restrain your omega to prevent him from running, do so. This is applicable to a contracted mate as well as an Érosgápe mate.”
Jason’s cock leaked pre-come against his boxers, and he didn’t dare move for fear of spontaneously orgasming in the middle of his first college-level Alpha-Omega Relations class. He glanced toward Xan and was relieved he wasn’t alone in his consuming arousal.
Xan shifted subtly in his seat, big blue eyes glued to the screen, as a trickle of sweat slipped down the side of his flushed face. His dark hair had gone limp in the humid stillness of the room, and his long, pale fingers, normally moving or tapping, were still on his desk.
Jason smelled Xan’s pre-come and the spicy quality of his pheromone-drenched sweat. He was familiar with all the sensual qualities of Xan’s arousal from the three years they’d bunked together at St. Marjoram’s Prep School for alphas. And after two months apart over the summer, he’d eagerly reacquainted himself with them over the last four days in their shared dorm at their university, Mont Nessadare.
Practice made perfect, and they’d both agreed to practice a lot with each other in preparation for the day they’d meet their omegas.Ifthey met their omegas. While over sixty percent of alpha/omegaÉrosgápepairs did eventually find each other, forty percent of each group never met their bond-mate. Jason went cold imagining an unbonded future without hisÉrosgápe.Though a contracted omega would still be better than no mate at all.
Because no matter how much he and Xan practiced together, they’d never reach the heights of ecstasy the alpha and omega in the educational film had already achieved. And the heat was just beginning.
Over the course of the class, they’d be presented with educational films of omegas at all stages of heat, pregnancy, and delivery. He’d heard from older alpha friends, a grade level above him at university, that the films of omegas in Stage 2 and Stage 3 were so intense that alpha students regularly ejaculated in class. Rumor had it they provided tissues for cleanup and advised the alphas to bring an extra pair of underwear to change into.
“Omegas are capable of multiple orgasms of a variety of types—oral, anal, uteral, and penile—but the omega will climax both with his penis and with his receptive cavity most commonly. If his womb has descended and opened, then he can reach states of unbearable pleasure. Expect your omega to be overcome by ecstasy, especially as his womb takes the crown of the alpha’s penis in preparation for Stage 2 and the beginning of insemination.”
Jason’s balls clenched and he closed his eyes, reluctant though he was to miss a second of the filmed omega’s pleasure and the alpha’s strong command of it.
“That’s all, class. We’ll see more after we’ve learned more about Stage 1 in alpha and omega breeding. In the meantime, are there any questions?” Professor Shriner’s voice was high-pitched for a man, and it cut through the room shrilly, shriveling Jason’s desire almost as effectively as a splash of cold water.
“Yes, Mr. Monhundy?” Professor Shriner pointed at Wilbet Monhundy in the second row, tall and muscled, a dreamboat of an alpha if Jason had ever seen one—the exact opposite of his own scrawny, lanky,c’mon-puberty-give-it-another-shotbody.
At least Jason had some hope for a brighter future in his swooping blond hair that lay across his forehead like a fall of wheat, blue eyes that reminded people of the sky or cornflowers depending on what colors he wore, and a pretty face that his father swore would grow into a handsome visage of alphahood eventually. Still, what Jason wouldn’t give for Wilbet’s biceps and abs.
“Go on, Mr. Monhundy, speak up.”
“Why does the omega shoot from his dick?” Wilbet asked with a leer. “He can’t impregnate anything. The come is just made of the same slick as from his ass, right? So what’s the point?”
“Language, Mr. Monhundy,” Professor Shriner scolded. “The omega climaxes with his penis, ejaculating an amount of liquid similar to that of the human men of yore. Before the Great Death, there were no alphas or omegas, just human men and the females of the species, known as women, and they engaged in intercourse in a similar, though not exactly the same, fashion as we do now. Human males ejaculated into a human female’s orifice, known as a vagina, and impregnated her in the muscled, robust womb she carried within. The amount of the ejaculation was much less than today’s alphas, but similar to the ejaculate expelled by betas who copulate for pleasure but never produce offspring.”
“But why do omegas do it?” Wilbet asked again. “I mean, don’t get me wrong, it’s hot, but why?”
Professor Shriner rolled his eyes. “I should no longer harbor even a tiny bit of surprise at the things you ripening alphas will say.” He heaved a sigh. “The omega’s ejaculation is a holdover from our forefathers. But don’t underestimate its power. The pleasure it brings to the omega is great, though not as powerful as some of his other orgasm potentials—of which there are several. He will relax afterward though remain eager for more. More importantly, it signals his womb to descend and soften, so it will open and accept the crown of the alpha’s penis for insemination.”
There was nothing sexy about hearing these words from Professor Shriner’s mouth, and Jason’s dick softened rapidly. He shifted in his seat, able to breathe again and strangely grateful for Professor Shriner’s long nose, bald head, and harsh voice.
