My One and Only Alpha

Chapter 24

Louis unfortunately got a slightly bigger contraction than the first one and he whimpered pitifully at the intrusive sensation. It was hard to explain what it felt like, but it was like throwing something into the air and having it fall back down to the ground. So as the object is tossed upward, the enclosing pressure inside of him increased and built up to reach a peak; and when the object began its descent, so did the pressure in his body, replaced with pain as it ended and rolling over into a wave of dull aching. He was aware that the dullness would eventually become excruciating agony, which was not ideal, but that didn't mean he couldn't complain about it now.

It was still wildly uncomfortable, even in its early stages.Harry called for the ceremony to commence, and the wolves began their celebrating, dancingaround the teepee in joy as Ian set his paints out. Louis had to be semi lifted into a sitting position, which he fought greatly, but Harry succeeded in heaving him up against his chest. The Elder painted Harry's face with swirls and lines as he chanted for the coming of the pack heirs, and then directed the focus to Louis.

The Omega had to bite back a constant stream of giggles while Ian was unintentionally tickling him with his fingers that were painting the expanse of his stomach. Harry was enjoying seeing his mate smile so easily, and lowly sung along to the ancient chant in Louis' ear as he massaged the Omega's hips. Lanalfto went on to trace every mark Louis bore from the Pack Alpha's teeth that was visible, (because everyone figured there were more in unseen places), and he concluded by taking a hand from each parent and putting them together, shaking the joined hands over their heads and cheering to the Gods. "Your parents would be very proud today, Chaska," Ian professed to the emotional Alpha.

"Thank you, Elder. You may go now, your services have been greatly appreciated," said Harry ashe respectfully bowed as low as he could with Louis in his lap, giving his mate a kiss when hisface came in contact with the Omega's cheek. Louis uttered his thanks too, and then the Elder was on his way back to his home.The ceremony came to a close with a serene meditation session as the sage was burning, andLouis may have fallen asleep once or twice, but he was filled with the love and support with hisfamily, so it was very relaxing and he can't be blamed.---Louis was currently in a conversation with Draco as the wolves around him were deep in theirbanter, speaking of their late sister, Camila."I just wish she was here today," he lamented to the white haired Omega in the arms of his blackhaired Parsel."Oh, she's around," Draco stated knowingly, looking at their surroundings mysteriously."Probably laughing her ass off right now at your pain because she doesn't have to feel itanymore.""Yeah, what a bitch, right?" Louis chuckled fondly, getting cut off with a contraction and whininghis way through it.Harry sweetly hushed him and began washing Louis' body with the wet cloth again, knowinghow comforting that was to him.Draco looked at him sympathetically, and a devious Niall smirked at him smugly. "I don't missthat," the blonde teased, tossing Louis some grapes to munch on.

Always with the damn grapes .

Louis took the fruit without conflict and nibbled on it absent-mindedly, anything a welcomedistraction from his situation. Louis' head ended up back on Harry's lap and he nuzzled into it,breathing in his Alpha's scent where it was strongest. Harry never once stopped caressing Louis'skin and emitting a soothing rumble every time Louis moaned in discomfort.The day continued in the peaceful manner that it was, easy and happy conversation being spoken around him, Louis sometimes joining in, and other times quietly listening as he slipped in and out of consciousness. His body was doing everything it needed to do to prepare for the rough event ahead of him, and that included resting as much as possible.

Niall and Miri had fallen asleep in Zayn's lap as well, and Draco cooed at his brothers when he noticed the comparison. "Oh Gods, look at them. They're so cute," he preened, looking between Niall and Louis. Harry followed his gaze and smiled down at his mate.
