show me your teeth.

Maisie listened and went ahead to make herself a plate of breakfast while Steve checked them out of the hotel, and she took her few moments of freedom to simply be. She fixed herself a plate and sat down at one of the few empty tables to eat in silence, and by the time that Steve returned with his own plate of food and sat down she'd already finished the plate she'd made herself. Maisie didn't even flinch when Steve gripped her hand a little tighter than she thought necessary rather she gently ran her thumb over his hand in hopes that it would help calm him down. She wasn't sure what had happened if anything, in the few moments leading up to this but something was clearly bothering him because he just seemed tense.

She nodded her head understand that Steve did not want to stop unless they had to. And she didn't want them to have to stop unless it was really necessary because the longer they were in the car the longer she had to wait to simply get this whole punishment thing started and over with. Though she was still kind of holding out hope that last night and maybe even this morning could get him to ease up on whatever he had planned for her, even if it was just a bit. Though she didn't want to hope too hard because this was Steve, she'd hurt him pretty badly, and she also understood that he was going to do whatever he saw fit because he was the alpha and she was the omega and that's just how things worked.

"I'm ready whenever you are alpha," Maisie said softly wanting Steve to know that she'd eaten and that whenever Steve was ready to sweep her away back into the car so they could get on the road again, but she also knew that he would have to finish eating first.

Bucky sat at the table with Adelaine while they ate their breakfast and he did everything he could to keep himself calm. He didn't even let himself react to her comment about not having waffles in forever. Though he wanted to, after all, even though he didn't like them himself she could've had waffles whenever she wanted them had she not ran away from him. Because all Bucky wanted was to provide for his omega, and that meant whatever the hell she wanted. This was not the time or the place to have that discussion, and maybe if he gave himself some time he could just move on from it. Even just hearing her say that she would've liked strawberries and whipped cream for her waffles made Bucky want to get those things for her because he truly just wanted to provide for her. But she'd taken that away from them both when she'd decided to run off.

He sighed once they were in the car again knowing that they had a long day of driving ahead of them and there would be plenty of time for the anger he felt bubbling up inside of him to calm down. There was already enough things he remembered to fuel the anger he felt towards the situation of her leaving there was no point in adding things to that that weren't even important anymore. After all, they were together again and he wasn't going to let anything come between them. Nothing and no one was going to come between them, he'd make sure of it. Though the punishment that was in store for Adelaide wasn't going to be pleasant at least she would know at the end of it that she belonged to him and there was no other answer.

Bucky turned to look at her briefly when she'd asked him where they were going. He hadn't thought it was important for her to know before, but he supposed that it wouldn't matter anymore. There was no way she was getting away from him again, not now. Not unless she was stupid enough to jump out of a moving car but even he knew she wouldn't do that so what could possibly hurt by telling her. "We're going to a cabin in the mountains. Somewhere where we won't be disturbed by anyone,"

Steve glanced up from his nearly empty plate. He knew that he could likely eat another plate of food but he wasn't going to. He'd urged Maisie to make sure she was well and full but he didn't want to stuff himself too much or the next few hours of their journey was going to be uncomfortable. He gave a nod at her words, rising once he had finished off his glass of milk. He offered his hand to her, flashing a small grin when she took it. The longer that he was beside her, the more that his agitation dwindled. He didn't have to worry about her leaving him again, Steve was positive but he couldn't help feeling aggravated over being separated from her, even for just a few moments. Steve needed Maisie just as much as she needed him.

- - - - -

Steve was exhausted after nearly two full days of driving. He pulled up to the luxurious cabin that he had rented out for them, for the next month. Steve didn't know if they would be there for the entire time but he had wanted to make sure that they had enough time to cement their relationship again. Steve wanted to make sure that Maisie understood exactly where she belonged - by his side. He wasn't about to leave the cabin without them both being secure in their relationship. Exhaling, Steve reached over and gave Maisie's thigh a gentle shake.

"C'mon, Maisie. Time for us to rest in a real bed, hm?" Steve murmured as he killed the engine. he climbed out of the car and stepped around to the back where he grabbed both of their bags. Steve led the way up to the front door, pushing the door open once he had unlocked the door. He glanced back to Maisie, stepping out of the way so that she could enter first. "There's supposed to be a hot tub out back," Steve muttered as he set the bags by the entrance of the hallway that led to the main bedroom. "It's not too late so I'm going to get it going so I can relax a bit before bed. You can either retire or join me," he said, shrugging his shoulders. He would leave the option up to her, he was ready for bed but he knew that he wasn't going to be able to rest fully without getting the crinks in his neck and shoulders out.

---

Adelaine shrunk under Bucky's gaze, curling her shoulders in on herself. She was sure that he was angry and she found herself regretting even thinking that it was an acceptable question to ask. It wasn't like it mattered to her, she wasn't going to be able to change where they ended up so why was she even bothering to ask? Bucky answered her question and she found herself relaxing almost immediately because it had convinced her that maybe he wasn't as angry as hse thought. She was probably just letting her anxiety get to her. She had been paranoid, looking over her shoulder constantly for the past year, she couldn't help the shift in the way she thought. She chewed on her bottom lip, nodding as she turned her attention back to the road in front of them.

A few minutes passed before Adelaine decided to speak again. It had been so long since she'd had any interaction with any of her friends from New York. She had always wondered about them but she'd never reached out because she was afraid it would end up leading Bucky back to her. Clearing her throat, Adelaine looked back to him.

"How.. how is everyone?" Adelaine asked, her voice a bit apprehensive as hse turned herself to face him a bit more. "Natasha? Steve?" SHe paused for a moment, wondering if it was too much to ask about Clint. She knew that it was odd but the pair of them had gotten particularly close; an alpha and omega were almost never just friends but that was all there had ever been between Adelaine and Clint. "Clint?" His name was uttered and she couldn't help but sigh, remembering just how ugly the fight had gotten when Bucky had gotten jealous. Clint hadn't fed into it but there was no calming Bucky's anger. As soon as he decided that he had been wronged, he wasn't afraid to punish the one responsible.

Maisie groaned when the third day at the cabin came around and she woke up realizing that her heat was there. She’d been pretty sure that this was going to happen just from her lack of appetite but she’d hoped that maybe it wouldn’t because she didn’t want to think of what Steve was going to do to her, and at the worst possible time for her. Though maybe this would ease his anger too, maybe he’d go into a rut and realize this could be his only opportunity to get what he wanted from her and everything would be over for them. All Maisie knew for sure though was she’d woken up and she needed Steve, on a level she hadn’t felt in a long time.

And maybe it was worse this time around because she’d been taking suppressants for nearly a year so she hadn’t had a heat which had been nice, but this was going to be hard for her. Maisie could smell Steve beside her, she could feel herself cooling off just a little simply being in his shirt, and oh did she want him. It almost felt like an ache in her entire body begging her to beg Steve to have his way with her. And she was sure that he would realize shortly what was happening, it was a good thing they’d come to the cabin when they had because Maisie didn’t want to imagine what might’ve happened if they were anywhere else.

“Mm Alpha,” Maisie moaned rolling over in the bed to face him. “Do you want me?” She asked him moving to run her foot seductively over his leg. “Because I want you,” She said in a low voice knowing it was her heat talking. All her brain could think about was how nice it would feel to have Steve’s hands all over her, have him inside of her, she just wanted to fucking make love to Steve over and over again. If that would happen or not was another question.

---

Bucky would’ve been fine telling Adelaine all about everyone, after all, he wasn’t concerned about any of them stepping in and trying to take his girl, other than fucking Clint. Though other than Clint Bucky knew all about the relationships that went on in the tower and honestly everyone had their own thing. Tony was always off with Pepper, Nat and Bruce were well there was something going on there. Thor was never really around on earth unless he was needed, and Bucky knew maybe too well all about Steve and his omega. But as far as everyone knew Clint didn’t have anyone, at least he never mentioned anyone and they’d never met anyone so that ultimately made him a threat. And she just had to go and drop his name didn’t she? Because, Adelaine couldn’t just leave well enough alone.

“Everyone’s fine,” he said feeling his hands tighten on the wheel of the car trying to hold in the anger he felt. They were in a car on their way to the cabin where Bucky would deal with her. He let out a breath before he said anything else. “Well I mean Steve’s been a bit of a mess. But apparently his omega both got the smart idea to run off at the same time you did. And I can only imagine what he’s going to do,” he said shaking his head. He and Steve had been best friends their entire lives, and if there was one thing he knew well, it was that Steve Rogers didn’t back down from things, he didn’t hold things back often if ever, and well Bucky wouldn’t want to cross him so there was that.

“Now, don’t ever bring up the name Clint again,” he all but growled. Even though Bucky knew that he’d hadn’t meant any harm in talking to her he’d talked to her and gotten all sorts of friendly with her and Bucky didn’t like it. Adelaine was his omega, and only he was allowed to touch her or anything else unless she asked and he said it was okay. And it hadn’t been okay.

[ I hope this was okay! I’m on my phone and in a bit of a rush! ]

Steve has been awake for several hours by the time that he noticed the shift in Maisie’s breathing. She was starting to wake up and all he could bear to do was smirk to himself because he caught on to Maisie’s smell. It was evoking sweeter, more poignant than before. Her heat was coming and as hard as it was going to be for him not to do anything at first, Steve was going to restrain himself. He wanted her begging for his knot, desperate for his touch before he would even consider giving into their desires.

He rolled onto his back when Maisie groaned, knowing it was only a matter of time before she reached out to him. Steve’s hand shot out, stopping her foot from getting too far up his leg. His grip tightened when she went to try and pull away. Steve lifted his gaze to meet hers, giving a cruel smirk as he leaned closer to her.

“Oh, my sweet omega. I’m not going to touch you,” Steve purred as he let go of her ankle. His smirk only grew at her surprise, reaching up to tangle his fingers into her hair. “But you’re going to touch me,” he whispered, pushing her down his body unceremoniously. “Put that pretty little mouth to use, omega. Now.”

---

Adelaine’s eyes widened as she was told about Steve’s omega running. She had considered Maisie a friend and the thought that she had run sent a chill down her spine. She didn’t know Steve all that well but she knew that he wasn’t going to be any happier than Bucky was with his omega leaving. She swallowed, nodding as she started playing with the hem of her shirt. There was nothing for her to say to him, nothing that she thought she could say would make her situation any better.

Bucky’s reaction to Clint’s name sent her heart racing in a chillingly familiar way. Bucky was angrier than she realized and she shrank back in her seat, deciding not to say anything else. She didn’t know if he’d lash out at the sound of her voice again and she didn’t think she even wanted to find out. Adelaine stayed quiet for the rest of the drive to the cabin Bucky had rented for the pair of them.

Adelaine had been lulled into a light sleep by the car ride, only managing to jerk awake when the car came to a stop. She looked up to the cabin, her heart skipping a beat. Adelaine was quiet until Bucky waved at her to climb out. She hurried to do so, lingering by the front of the car until Bucky joined her. Chewing on the inside of her lip, Adelaine prayed that whatever Bucky had planned wouldn’t be too terribly bad. She was going to suffer, she knew that, but she had already done so at his hands before. It couldn’t get much worse, could it?

Maisie felt like she should've known that Steve would do this of all things to her, but she hadn't because she hadn't exactly expected her heat to come so soon. And this time around was not going to be an easy one on her either because she hadn't had her heat in over a year, but Maisie was going to be good. This was what Steve wanted, she knew that he wanted her to a point of begging because she literally couldn't take it anymore until he gave in, and that's what was going to happen because Steve always got what he wanted. Maisie thought it sounded awful, but well this was the punishment she was getting for running away from him. So she moved her aching body to straddle his legs so she could lean forward and kiss down his stomach and until she reached his cock then she took a breath and slipped her lips around him taking as much as she could.

Steve didn't often ask her to do this, which she was thankful for because she hated it, but she had done it enough to know how he liked it. After all, Steve couldn't have an omega who didn't know how to make him feel good. She moved her lips over him using her hand to pump his shaft a couple of times before she flicked her tongue over his tip and pulled back for a brief moment so she could breathe. Honestly, blow jobs were one of the worst things in her opinion, they made her want to gag and she didn't like that but doing this while she was in heat and all she wanted was to feel her alpha inside of her made it worse. Probably because she literally felt like she was on fire, she was throbbing for him, and touching him but not feeling his touch in return sucked.

"Mm Alpha," she moaned leaning forward to press a few more kisses to his shaft again before she pumped it again and pressed her lips back around him. Even though it sucked, and she wanted to feel his hands on her at least she was being allowed to touch him and it was slightly helpful. Every bit of physical contact helped her feel better even just a little, but it also made her need for him greater, and she knew the longer he held out on her the more she'd want him. Eventually to a point where it would physically pain her not to have him, but they hadn't gotten there yet. Either way, she hoped she was able to please him and maybe just maybe get him to give in sooner rather than later.

---

Bucky pulled up to their luxury cabin before he got out of the car and went around to the trunk to grab their things. If she thought she was at all off the hook for anything or that he was going to ease up on her some she was mistaken. Especially after all the shit in the car earlier, sure he'd had time to calm down and thankfully she'd fallen asleep so he hadn't had to listen to her voice or any crying he'd just had peace and quiet to be alone in his thoughts, but he was still pissed off. It was just a much calmer pissed than an outwardly angry pissed off.

"I'm going to change and be in the hot tub because I need to relax my muscles after a long day. You can join me or you can go to bed," he told her as he led her inside and to the room, they'd be sleeping in where he set his stuff down. Tonight they could relax and simply enjoy some of the more luxurious things life had to offer them but tomorrow was when the fun would begin. "Either way, I have a phone call I have to take in about an hour," he said looking at his watch to make sure he had the correct time. "It's a private call so don't listen in," he told her as he changed into something more suitable for a hot tub. Adelaine didn't need to know who he was on the phone with, at least not yet. Not that it would change anything, he just didn't want her to know until the time was right which was not now.

"Also the kitchen is fully stocked if you want a snack or anything to drink. You are welcome to help yourself, I don't want you to starve," he told her truly hoping that his omega knew he cared for her deeply and he hadn't wanted anything like this to happen but she'd driven him to this point with her actions. Once they made amends, however, once everything was over and done with he and Adelaine would be good again. Nothing would come between them and she would never even be tempted to run again. They just had to get to that point first, which apparently was going to take some time.

{on my phone so if this isn’t the best, I’m sorry. Just wanted to get it out on my lunch!}

Steve couldn’t help but let out a groan as the realization dawned on Maisie’s features. She wasn’t stupid enough to complain about his decision, Steve was sure of it, but watching her reaction was almost enough to send him over the edge. There was something particularly alluring amount the mixture of fear and acceptance that she displayed - she wouldn’t get what she wanted until her heat was at its worst. They tended to only last three days but it had been a year since her last; this one could likely last up to a week. A week of tormenting Maisie? Enough to send blood rushing south, his cock throbbing at the thought.

Biting at his bottom lip, Steve opted to keep himself silent. He wasn’t going to give Maisie any sort of satisfaction and that included his own noises; she didn’t need to know she was doing a good job. She could stress about whether Steve was pleased with her, he didn’t care. Right now, his only mission was to break Maisie and turn her into the perfect little omega that he had always wanted.

Running his hand through Maisie’s hair, Steve smirked as he pushed her further onto his cock. His lips parted as he felt the tip of his cock brush against the back of her throat. “Better not waste a single drop,” Steve growled as his warning, giving a few thrusts of his hips before he relaxed against, giving Maisie back the control of what happened.

---

Adelaine had been about to agree to join Bucky in the hot tub but when he mentioned a private phone call, she decided it was best if she didn’t. She didn’t want to be lingering when he had the phone call; she didn’t accidentally want to hear something that she wasn’t supposed to. Instead Adelaine chose to change into a new pair of clothes before settling into the bed. She wasn’t exactly physically tired but she was feeling emotionally drained; she didn’t have the energy to even go downstairs to put a small snack together. She could wait until the morning.

Stretching awake when the first streams of sunlight lit the room, Adelaine eyed Bucky’s sleeping form warily. He looked so peaceful at the moment. She had a sinking feeling that was going to change as soon as he woke. While she was clueless about what was happening, Adelaine knew that Bucky wasn’t simply going to forget what she had done.

A nervous knot had settled in the pit of her stomach. Ever so carefully, Adelaine climbed out of bed before she made her way downstairs. She was intent on making breakfast to show Bucky that she could be the dutiful omega that he wanted her to bed. She knew it wasn’t going to completely get rid of his anger but she thought if she could show him that she knew how to behave and cater to him, she hoped that it would make the punishment shorter.

It took all Maisie had not to gag as she deep throated Steve, she'd learned over the time they'd spent together though how to relax her throat so she could take more of him, yet something else she hated. This time because it had been a while since she'd done this so she was out of practice. This was what he wanted though and Maisie was going to give him what he wanted, even if it meant suffering for herself. After the first night, they'd spent together Maisie simply knew better than to talk back at all. Steve didn't feel remorse right now, he'd made it clear that he wanted her to just listen and do as she was told, so she knew if she wanted Steve to knot her at all while she was in heat then this was what had to be done. It didn't matter if she liked it or not.

Maisie wished she could tell if she was at least making him feel good, but he was being extra stubborn and wasn't even letting her know, so she would have to keep going about what she was doing just hoping for the best. After a few more moments of sucking on Steve's cock and feeling herself throb some more and wanting to just touch herself to help the overwhelming need, she felt Maisie grazed her teeth over him until she got to the tip and just spent some time there which would allow her to breathe a little bit better.

She didn't know how long this was going to go on, or what else he was going to do to her, or maybe have her do to him, or even herself, but hopefully this part would be over. Though at this point anything other than just having Steve deep inside of her was going to suck. This was the first heat she'd had in a year, her urges were stronger than she remembered, and she actually felt like she was on fire so of course she just wanted him to ease some of the things she was feeling but she had to prove herself first. I'll be such a good omega. she thought to herself wishing she could tell that to Steve and he'd believe her.

---

"Oh, hello there," Lacy said from the kitchen as she finished with the breakfast she'd been making when she saw Adelaine walk in.

Bucky stretched awake the following morning when the sun shone through the window onto his face. That was probably one of the best nights of sleep he'd gotten in a while, though how could it not be. He was in a nice bed with his omega by his side, and angry with her or not it was calming to feel her next to him all night. So much so that he wasn't even that concerned when he finally realized she wasn't in the bed with him anymore which actually brought a smirk to face, especially after he caught the smell of breakfast. He had a feeling that by now Adelaine had probably met their guest.

So he climbed out of the bed and simply pulled his pants on over his boxers, opting for no shirt, before he made his way down and into the kitchen trying not to give away his plan for his little omega. "Lacy I see you made it okay," he said smiling at her before he took a piece of bacon off the plate and kissing her cheek. "You asked me to come alpha, so here I am making breakfast as you like," she told him smiling up at him before setting the plate of freshly made food on the counter for him. "I've already set the table too so we can sit there if you'd like," she added causing Bucky to smile even more. This was how things were supposed to be. He should have an omega who knew him well enough to just do things for him the first time he asked. He shouldn't have to get angry or upset with them because they should just listen. If he tells Adeline what he likes and what he wants she should simply know to do those things. Instead, she clearly doesn't and take off, or brings up fucking Clint as he would ever want to talk about that.

He finally turned to her and smirked. "Omega," he said to Adelaine as he motioned for them to all walk towards the dining room to eat at a table like the civil people they were. "This is Lacy, a sweet little omega I met within the last year who kept me company a few times while you were off hiding from me," he told her as he pulled out the chairs. "And she's here with us," he started before he leaned in close to Adelaine's ear so he could talk just to her, "because I think you need to learn a lesson or two about how to be a good alpha pleasing omega, from a good alpha pleasing omega," he told her before he kissed her cheek then sat down to enjoy his breakfast.

Steve smirked as he lifted his head just enough to watch as Maisie took him into her mouth. If this had been any other day, he would have praised her but he certainly wasn’t about to now. She had hurt him and she was going to have to suffer if she wanted to ever be back in his good graces. Dropping his head back against the pillow, he relaxed as he felt the familiar ball form in the pit of his stomach. Closing his eyes, Steve only grunted as he came, gripping Maisie head in place so that she was forced to swallow him cum.

Laying there for a few moments to catch his breathe, Steve reaches down to tuck himself back into his boxers. He sat up, wordlessly reaching into the nightstand on his side of the bed. Producing a bottle of lube, Steve smiled up at Maisie. She likely thought she was about to be rewarded but that was the very last thing that was going to happen to her.

“Why don’t you take those panties off for me, ‘mega?” Steve spoke, his voice still low. He flicked open the bottle, squirting a liberal amount of the liquid on his hand. “Lay back for your alpha,” he said, moving onto his knees in front of her. When Maisie was in position for him, Steve presses a finger into her. He was still for a few moments before he began to painstakingly move his finger inside of her. It would slowly numb her; she would still feel her heat but his touch would do nothing to calm the heat coursing through her veins.

---

Adelaine jumped as Lacy spoke to her, her eyes going wide as panic flooded her system. She opened her mouth to yell for Bucky before she fell silent instead, a deep frown settling on her features as she studied the omega in front of her. Cooking. “Hello?” Her voice came out at a high pitch, an uneasy feeling settling in the pit of her stomach. She had no idea what was going on but the longer she watched Lacy, the more uncomfortable she felt.

Bucky appeared and her unease settled into jealousy at best. She watched Bucky and Lacy wordlessly. They seemed so at ease with each other t hat it was making an emotion form but she couldn’t even place it. But then Lucy called Bucky alpha and she couldn’t help the indignant noise that she let out. Tears welled in her eyes as Bucky turned to her but all she could do was listen as he spoke. She didn’t trust her voice.

Bucky was talking about how Lacy had kept him company and suddenly, she found that she wanted to cover herself. The bruises on her neck and wrists were still apparent from the night before. She wondered if Lacy felt bad for her or if the other omega thought that Adelaine deserved it.

Her legs carried her over to the table and Adelaine sat wordlessly. Her bottom lip wobbled but she did her best to contain her emotions. She stared at the plate of food in front of her. Truth be told, she was starving but she was afraid that if she ate, she would end up throwing up. Her hands clasped so tightly in her lap that her knuckles turned white as Lacy started to speak. It wasn’t until there was a lull in the conversation that Adelaine spoke, her voice cracking. “May I be excused? I ate quite a bit last night when we arrived. I’m not too hungry, I’m afraid,” she whispered, staring down at her lap. A lone tear escaped her eye and she reached up quickly to wiped It away. She sniffles, pressing her lips together tightly. She had lied and she was pretty sure Bucky knew it but she was desperate to get away from the dining room table before she broke completely.

Maisie followed directions once she was finished with his blowjob and slipped her pantries off then she laid back and waited for whatever came next. She couldn’t hold in her own noises, letting out a louder moan when she felt Steve slip his finger into her. But then he just didn’t move and she felt herself simply throb around him while going a little numb as well. “Mm Alpha please,” she said softer wanting, no needing, more of him. She even tried to help herself out, though not intentionally, by moving her hips around. Though she logically knew there was no point because well Steve was a master at torturing her, she was in her first heat in a year and couldn’t control herself.

She felt almost nothing when Steve began to move his fingers around in her and she hated it. A very brief moment of pleasure was all she’d gotten, and she couldn’t exactly place how this was helping Steve, but she assumed that he would still find some kind of pleasure out of this. Though it was probably watching her squirm underneath while her heat grew stronger. He did seem to enjoy making her beg for things.

Maybe that was just who Steve was? Thinking back to before she’d run off when they’d have sex Maisie could remember all the times that Steve would play with her until she was practically dripping with a want so bad you could smell it on her. Then he’d finally give in and pleasure would ensue. She had a gut feeling that simply wasn’t how this was going to go, because she was in heat and would be for a few days Steve was likely going to drag this out much longer than an hour or so. And Maisie was not looking forward to that.

---

Bucky smirked to himself as he smelled the jealousy dripping off of Adelaine. This was going to be downright torture for her, but that’s what she deserved. She could suffer, she deserved to suffer after all the stunts she’d pulled. And he knew this was going to eat her alive probably, but his hope was that it would teach her a lesson she needed to get through her thick skull. She belonged to him, he was the alpha, he made the rules, and if she didn’t follow them he would find someone who did. But just because he found someone else wouldn’t mean she got to just leave and be off the hook. Letting her off the hook was too easy for her. Plus he had bonded with her, no other omega had been given that privilege so she could consider herself lucky.

“You’re an awful liar,” Bucky said shaking his head before moving the plate of food away from her. “Leave the table then, go cry it all out if you really need to, Lacy and I will be out here or in the hot-tub when you’re ready to come join us, which I do expect you to at some point. And I don’t want to have to come get you,” he said growling the end part. Adelaine needed to know just how much she’d hurt him by running off like she had, and well this was the way to do it by making her hurt inside as well.

And was there a more productive way to show her that then by dangling another omega in front of her like this. After all, it had to suck for her to see him decide to cozy up to someone else when he’d bonded with her. He was sure it hurt to see someone else touch him, or talk to him, or do what she was supposed to do. But she’d run from him and Bucky had to find someone to take up her position.

Steve's lips twitched upward in a smirk as he watched Maisie try to roll her hips to meet his hand. He wasn't going to give her more than he was giving her now because he knew that when she realized the torture that she was in for... the thought was enough to make him start to harden all over again. Once Steve was satisfied that she had enough of the lube inside of her to numb her properly, he pulled away from her. He leaned back against the headboard, his eyes finding hers as he lifted his hand to his mouth. He kept his fingers in front of his mouth as he slowly cleaned his fingers off, knowing that it was just a little added torture for her. It was what Maisie craved so badly but not what she would get. No time soon.

Once he was satisfied that his hand was clean, Steve leaned his head back against the headboard. "You taste sweeter than I remember, omega," he breathe, a small smile settling on his features. He was sure that Maisie was starting to piece together what he was planning to do to her but he wasn't going to spell it out to her. When she figured it out, fine, but until then he was going to settle on her being unsure of herself. Unsure of what was going to happen to her.

"Now. Go downstairs and begin breakfast. I'm going to go freshen up and I expect breakfast to be served when I come downstairs," Steve spoke as he moved to stand. He hadn't explicitly told Maisie not to touch herself because he didn't care if she did or not. She wouldn't get any pleasure out of it so did it really matter? Steve didn't think so. If anything it was going to just add to her realizing what was happening. Palming himself through his shorts as he made his way into the bathroom, Steve glanced back to Maisie for a moment. He lingered in the doorway before going inside completely, pushing the door shut behind him.

Adelaine didn't even answer as Bucky called her out on lying. She forced back a sob that bubbled inside of her chest, not wanting to break down in front of Lacy and Bucky. It was as obvious as the day was long that she was going to go cry it all out but the thought of crying in front of them? That was too much to her. "Yes, alpha," she croaked, pushing her chair back before she moved to stand. Adelaine wondered if she was supposed to thank Lacy but she couldn't bring herself to - thanking the omega that had just cooked her alpha breakfast and who was calling him alpha? She was sure that if this was any other time where she hadn't been in trouble, she would have lashed out. But she knew that if she lashed out, Bucky would only take it as more fuel to punish her.

All but rushing upstairs, Adelaine out a choked sob as she shut their bedroom door behind her. She leaned against it, slowly sliding down it as her tears started falling. She blinked, her mind drifting to the idea of nesting. It would help calm her down, she knew it would, but she didn't want to find comfort in his scent right now. Especially not when Bucky thought it was appropriate to rub another omega in her face. Over and over, Adelaine kept thinking about another omega touching her alpha. Of pleasing him, of making him happy.

The longer she sat against the door, the more she felt a weight on her chest. Adelaine couldn't breathe, gasping and sputtering for air as she cried. She hung her head, pulling her knees into her chest as she tried to calm herself down. By the time that she had managed to calm down, it had been nearly an hour. Her body ached as she slowly rose to her feet. Her legs were shaking as she started the shower, hoping that it would be enough to calm the ache in her muscles. It would do nothing for the one in her chest but it would help make her a bit more presentable. Adelaine stayed under the spray of water until it started to cool off, her eyes still red and sore as she turned the shower off. She chewed on her bottom lip as she left the bathroom, trying to debate on going downstairs and obeying Bucky or staying up here. SHe knew what he wanted but the thought of facing Lacy and Bucky...

Adelaine drew in a shaky breathe as she pulled her clothes on. She chose a sweater and a pair of yoga pants because she wanted to at least be a bit comfortable while she had to try and do.. well, she didn't know what Bucky wanted from her. Did he want her to play nice or did he want her to eventually lash out and fight for him? Her stomach was a ball of knots as she started down the stairs. Bucky's words kept running through her mind - he didn't want to come get her. If she came to them, she was showing she could listen. Right? She hoped. God, she hoped. Chewing on the inside of her lip, Adelaine's breathe hitched as she stepped out onto the patio. Her arms wrapped around her body and she stared down at her feet, refusing to look up to the pair in the hot tub.

Maisie whined as Steve left her on the bed to go clean up leaving her there unsatisfied, not that she'd really expected anything less from him. She took a minute to gather herself before she pulled her underwear back on and climbed out of the bed to head to the kitchen and make breakfast. She'd put two and two together and realized that this was just the way that Steve was going to punish her, probably because this was going to be actual torture for her. She'd admit though that as awful as this sounded she was sure things could be a lot worse so maybe it wasn't the worst thing that her heat had come possibly changing any plans he could've had.

She walked around the kitchen pulling out everything she needed for breakfast planning to settle on bacon and pancakes because Steve hadn't specified anything specific so she assumed she was allowed to choose what to make, and she knew he liked both so it had to be a good choice. Luckily both were fairly easy and quick to make so she had them both done in no time and was setting the table for her and Steve to eat, making sure of course to go through the fridge as well and grab the OJ.

When she saw Steve walk into the dining room she had just finished setting everything on the table and she just sent him a small smile hoping that she could please him enough to at least get praise or something out of him, to make herself feel better. Maisie knew that it was just her being extra hopeful for something she wouldn't get. Not yet at least, not until Steve felt like he'd gotten her to a point of no return for lack of a better way to describe it.

---

Bucky finished his breakfast with Lacy before she went to clean up the kitchen and he relaxed by doing one of the crossword puzzles that was laying around. Crosswords had always been a lot of fun for him, they kept his brain active and distracted from other things when he needed to distract himself. He worked on them for a while before he and Lacy finally retired to the hot tub, and it was a nice day for a dip in the hot tub which was nice as well.

He had no idea how Adelaine was going to truly react to having another omega in the house with them, he didn't know if she was going to lash out or if she was going to play nice, and he'd made sure to inform Lacy of that as well. Bucky hoped that she would make the right choice, that his dear omega would learn her lesson with that. He hoped that she would learn to fight for him. He, of course, didn't expect her to do it after first. Oh no, he knew that he was going to have to break her first, he had to get her to a point where she was more afraid of losing him than just afraid of him. Adelaine had to believe that he could just toss her to the side and be with someone else who listened better. And so Bucky would play to that fear. Right now she was too afraid of him and much too nervous that he would lash out at her to really do anything other than walk around like a sad little baby. But he was hoping that with a push in the right direction over the next few days she'd realize that he just wanted her to prove to him that she loved him and wanted to be with him nearly as much as he wanted her.

Once they were back in that spot, once he knew that he could trust her again fully then things really could go back to normal for them. And once Adeline, if she did at all, proved to Bucky that she needed him that she would fight for him and not run away from him again, well then he would show her all the pleasures she'd been missing out on for the last year. Once Bucky had nice sweet little omega back under his thumb, and he knew he could trust her to listen the first time around, or know certain things without having to be told things would be good for them again. But until then he was going to spend his days sitting in hot tubs with a different little omega while they fed each other one of Adelaine's favorite treats, strawberries.

Steve hadn’t given her instructions on what to make for breakfast because he was almost positive that she would make something he liked. As angry and frustrated as he was with Maisie, he didn’t think she was a stupid girl. She had managed to run and hide from him for nearly a year. She had to be smart to pull that off. It was a good twenty or so minutes before Steve started down the stairs, feeling rather refreshed despite the frustration brewing inside of him. It was taking more strength than he had bargained for; restraining himself from claiming his omega while she was in heat.

Seeing that Maisie has managed to complete the task in front of her, he had to admit he was a bit surprised. She had managed to complete a meal while her own needs were left unmet. Steve couldn’t help but take a deep inhale, Maisie’s sweet scent washing over him. He would have bent her over the dining room table and taken her right there if it had been any other day; if this wasn’t about punishing Maisie.

But he couldn’t help the way his mind drifted. Steve has used the lube just to numb her but he wondered just how well it would work if he decided to fuck her. Could he get his pleasure while denying hers? His face scrunched a bit at the thought. Steve lifted his head, eyeing the omega in front of him. “We can take a dip in the hot tub,” he paused, looking up to her. “Might help you... be able to relax a bit. What do you think?”

---

Adelaine has told herself that she needed to stay calm. She didn’t know what Bucky’s ultimate goal was but she was sure that if she spoke up, he’d punish her. Her opinions had only ever been met by punishment if they differed from his own. She stood by the door to the back yard, chewing on the inside of her lip as she tried to focus on keeping her breathing level. Freaking out wouldn’t get her any where.

She hadn’t been acknowledged despite standing there for nearly ten minutes. Adelaine gulped as she lifted her gaze slightly, her eyes narrowing as she saw the scene in front of her. Bucky and Lacy were smiling, feeding each other strawberries with seemingly not a single care in the world. Adelaine didn’t really know why it made her crack but it did.

Before she could even think about the ramifications her actions, Adelaine stalked over to the hot tub. She fixed Bucky with a heavy glare as she balled her hands into fists. She wasn’t brave enough to hit him but God, she wanted to lash out at Lacy given the smile on the other omega’s face.

“You’re an asshole. You know that?” Adelaine hissed through gritted teeth, her eyes narrowing. “I never laid with another alpha. Never spoke to one. Never gave them my number, never went on a date - wouldn’t dream of it. Because they could never hope to compare to you. But you’ll stand there with another omega, in my face. Seems like you’ve already replaced me so I’ll leave the two of you to enjoy your time together. Because there’s no fucking point in me being here. I’ll just ruin the mood,” Adelaine spat. She didn’t say another word as she spun on her heel. She stormed back inside, slamming the patio door. She didn’t care if she’d stepped over a line. She was seething even as she started slamming things around in the kitchen. Adelaine was hungry now that she’d tired Herself out earlier - she needed something to eat.

Maisie was having a really rough morning. So far Steve had completely denied her pleasure rather numbing her to his touch down there, and her own for that matter. She wasn't exactly sure how long it was supposed to last but she figured with the amount of lube that he'd used it would be a while. This was the worst heat she'd ever had, and all she wanted was to feel Steve but that wasn't happening so all she could hope for was that behaving would get her the reward that she wanted, eventually. And while Maisie knew he'd tell her she'd brought this upon herself for running away in the first place she was going to do whatever it took to show him how sorry she was that she'd done it. She also had already learned her lesson and knew not to do anything stupid that would cross him again. They were bonded, for life. Steve was the only alpha in the entire world for her, they were for lack of a better way of saying it, made for each other. She'd accepted that now she just had to show Steve she supposed.

She nodded her head, "I think that sounds nice, if you want of course alpha" she said softly before she opened the fridge again to pull out the last couple of things that they'd need for breakfast, some fruit to go on top of the pancakes, then she grabbed the syrup from the microwave, because she knew they both liked it on warm, and set it on the table. She hoped that maybe he was right and taking a dip in the hot tub would help her relax a little. She did feel super on edge thinking about it, even though she knew that there was nothing she could do to stop the ache she felt inside to simply feel him since she couldn't feel anything down there right now, maybe being in the hot tub would help calm her down a little. Surely the warm water would make her muscles relax a little and maybe even take some of the edge off.

Right now Maisie would do anything to have some way to take the edge off since she wasn't going to be satisfied any other way. "So do you have plans for us for the day alpha?" she asked him softly wondering if his only plan was just to torment her until she broke further or if he had other activities planned throughout their time together to try and fix what she'd broken. And by other plans, she just wondered if the day would be all about her pleasing Steve in every way he could imagine or not. She could also only imagine what other ways Steve might want her to perform for him, or how hard it must be for him to keep himself together right now given how hard it was for her. So he was clearly using this to punish her.

---

Bucky excused himself from Lacy and followed Adelaine inside silently seething, but he wasn't going to overreact. Oh no, he had much bigger plans and much more control over himself than that. "So I'm the asshole here then, right" he sighed and shook his head. "And I'm just supposed to feel so much fucking better about us because you never laid with anyone else. You didn't put yourself out there, you wouldn't even dream of going on a date with someone else. And I'm supposed to believe that you didn't do those things because you loved me? Right? You fucking love me? Well, guess what sweetheart I don't fucking believe you," he told her taking very slow and calculated steps towards her.

"You fucking ran away Adelaine, you took back your submission remember? Everything that's happening you've brought upon yourself. We wouldn't be here right now having this fucking fight if you wouldn't have run away in the first place. And don't try and pull some 'I never spoke to one' bullshit. You did otherwise how the hell did his coat end up in your closet? Or have you already forgotten that? Oh yea, yet another reason we're here you were getting all sorts of chummy with your good ole' pal Clint. A mother fucking alpha without an omega. So don't try and make me out to be the awful alpha rubbing things in your face when this if your own damn fault," he growled at her feeling his anger worsen with each word.

Bucky finally reached her and he pressed her firmly against the wall, holding her in place so he could look down at her. "You're getting the punishment I see fit. Because I'm the alpha here. Your fucking punishment is that you're not leaving here and you're going to do whatever I tell you. That's what good little omega's do," he said slowly rubbing his thumb over her cheek and smirking down at her. "Maybe Lacy can show you a thing or two about being a good omega, see she listens, unlike you. Now I don't care what you think of me right now but do not ever talk to me like that again. If you have a problem with her then take it up with her. If you fucking want her gone then why don't you prove to everyone here that you deserve to even call me alpha." He said in the lowest voice he'd ever used on her, he had never liked to use his alpha command on her because he felt like he shouldn't have to but he wasn't afraid to use it. Especially since she thought she could pull a stunt like she had and get away with it.

He finally let her go and turned to go back outside where he'd left Lacy. "I do hope you can calm down enough to join us," he told her over his shoulder because he let the door slam behind him on his way back outside, and he hoped that he'd dealt with her well enough that he didn't have to have another conversation like that with her again.

Steve already had an inkling that Maisie understood what her place was. She was a smart girl but he didn't want to let her off that easy. He had suffered for a year without her by his side, the least that she could do was suffer for a week. At his hands, sure, but after this week, he hoped that Maisie would be the omega that he wanted. He was fine with her having her opinions about things but at the end of the day, she still needed to be able to understand that he was the one in charge. His word was final. If he said she couldn't go out with friends or that she shouldn't speak to someone or whatever the situation was, Maisie was supposed to listen. After all, he only said these things to make sure that she stayed safe. Steve only ever wanted to keep her safe and a large group of omegas was always going to be a target. Claimed or not. And if he thought someone was a bad influence on her, of course he would want to keep her from them. He didn't think it was right that she got so bent out of shape over it.

Enjoying his breakfast in relative silence, Steve looked up when Maisie spoke. He couldn't have hid the smirk that settled on his features even if he had wanted to. He gave a small nod of his head, raising an eyebrow. "Oh, yes. I have plans for the two of us, Maisie. I'm going to thoroughly enjoy myself. I don't know how much you will enjoy yourself but then again..." he trailed off, shrugging as he tilted his head to the side. "I haven't enjoyed myself this past year so I think it's only fair. Don't you?"

Steve's mind drifted for a moment. He leaned back in his chair, studying Maisie after he took a large bite of his pancake. He swallowed it, sniffing as he reached to take a sip of his orange juice. "Tell me something. You must have thought I would find you eventually... or at least been afraid of it. What did you imagine I would do to you when I found you? What's the worst possible thing that you thought up, that I could do to you? Hm?" He asked, raising an eyebrow. Steve was going to make her tell him every last little fear that she'd worried about over the last year. Whether he used them against her or not, he didn't really know but he knew it would make her squirm telling him about those memories... Steve would at least be able to enjoy that.

---

Adelaine didn't even look up from what she was doing as Bucky entered the house again. All she was trying to focus on was the food in front of her because she was hardly containing herself. All she could think about was watching as Bucky fed Lacy a strawberry. It was such a simple act but all she could think about was how... strange it felt. It had hurt her more than she thought it would. Chewing on the inside of her lip, Adelaine let out a dry laugh as she finally looked up to watch as Bucky started toward her. She knew that she was supposed to be afraid of him, especially with the way he started toward her. Each step was slow and calculated, meant to scare her. And it did. But also she could think about was how hurt she was.

"You are so fucking stupid," she hissed, slamming her hand down on the counter. Adelaine was angry and she was hurt and she knew she was treading on a thin wire. "If you would shut up for once in your damn life and realize that maybe you don't know everything... you'd fuckin' realize that not every alpha is out to take your omega. You'd realize that that coat was only in my closet because the restaurant manager at my job knew that I didn't have an alpha around. Knew that I lived in a dangerous area... knew that I would be a bit safer if I wore a coat with his scent on it. He did it to keep me safe because there was no one else that was going to try and keep me safe!" Adelaine was all but yelling even as Bucky backed her into the wall.

She let out a small sob, her bottom lip wobbling as she glared up at him. "I was coming down here to cook you breakfast. Because I wanted to show you that I could be the omega you wanted me to be. But that doesn't mean anything, does it? Because I'm just an omega and my opinion doesn't mean anything to you. It never has. You just want me to..." she trailed off, unable to stop the whimper that fell from her lips. Adelaine closed her eyes as tightly as she could, her body tensing as Bucky's voice dropped. It left a sour taste in the back of her throat.

Adelaine opened her eyes but all she saw was Bucky's figure, it was blurry and she could hardly make out his form as he shut the door behind himself. Her hands balled into fists as she turned away from the door, inching toward where the couch was in the living room. She dropped down onto the edge of the couch, tucking her feet up onto the edge of the cushion. Adelaine was completely torn. She wanted to be the omega that made Bucky happy. So, so badly. But the longer that she sat there, the more she struggled to even believe she could be the woman he wanted.

Her shoulders pulled tight together as she heard the door open nearly twenty minutes later. Adelaine could hear Lacy and that made her want nothing more than to lash out. She wanted to stand up and rip into Lacy. Bucky was hers. Her alpha. But if Bucky didn't even think she deserved to call him by his title? It made her question everything.

Maisie ate her breakfast in relative silence trying to just enjoy being in Steve's presence without the tension she'd felt the first night they were together. Sure things still sucked right now, but she also felt like they were kind of getting better or maybe she was seeing the light at the end of a very dark tunnel. Now don't get her wrong, the light was still a way away but it was there giving her the smallest amount of hope that before the week was over she'd be in his good graces again. That Steve would welcome her back with open arms and she could simply be the omega he wanted her to be. Her logical side be damned. Clearly, that part of her knew nothing because look at the mess it had caused that she was having to suffer through just to clean up. All Maisie wanted as an omega was her alpha, and that was Steve.

Maisie nodded her head towards Steve as she took a bite of her pancakes. "It is only fair that you get to enjoy yourself this week alpha," she said willing herself not to think about the fact that she was in heat and felt like she had needs of her own. If she really did want to be the omega Steve wanted, and she did want to prove to him that she was and could be, then this was how it had to be. "I did leave you for a whole year, so this is simply what I deserve," she said softer biting the inside of her lip to keep herself from letting a whole wall of emotions come tumbling out. That wouldn't go over well for sure. She didn't need to act as she had recently, she didn't need to keep apologizing for her actions and rather just own up to them.

She swallowed hard feeling her heart start to race when he asked her about what she'd thought over the last year. His question left her with an awful feeling in the pit of her stomach, but once again she was going to push that so far down she couldn't even register it anymore. "I didn't let myself think about it very often," she started tucking her hair behind her ear, "but when I did let myself think about it well you were always angry so I knew there would be bruises. Um, I imagined you would make me suffer in some intense way like making me so hot for you but then not touching me since you had been denied my touch for so long now I could know what it felt like. I imagined you being rough and leaving your mark on me in so many places so hard that it wouldn't ever go away. So that even if I got the urge to run again it wouldn't do me any good. Because no one else would ever want to lay with a marked omega, especially one marked by Captain America. I imagined that you would want me to play out any and every fantasy you'd ever had just to add to your pleasure because if we were together again then you would deserve to be pleasured by your omega. And I imagined that I would eventually be held down or tied to a bed so tightly I couldn't move whimpering to feel you inside of me before you finally gave in and let me feel a pleasure I'd never felt, then you would say something cocky," she said shivering a little as she'd thought back to all the nights that she'd been terrified of this moment right in front of her. And it was kind of scary thinking how many of those things had already come to pass and how many more she'd have to endure.

---

Bucky stood outside the door for a moment still seething. He honestly wanted nothing more at that moment then to walk back inside, pin Adelaine down where ever she was, and show her who was in charge. He would show her what happened when she talked to him the way she was. And how he wasn't having it. Bucky was almost willing even to choke her so hard she couldn't even talk back to him if she wanted to, but he held back. He wasn't going to torment her like that. No. Bucky was going to literally tear her heart apart just like she had done to his. And he hoped that she was doubting herself because maybe it would make her realize that she'd been such a bad omega.

Adelaine thought she knew how alpha's worked but she had no clue. Telling him that they weren't all after his omega as if she knew. But she didn't. He knew how it was with them, all of them. If an alpha didn't already have his own omega then, of course, they were looking to mate even if that was with an omega who already had an alpha. Was it dangerous, yes, but they still did it. She needed to realize that alpha's an omega's were not 'just friends' there would almost always be strings attached. And on top of all of that, the shit she'd gone through over the last year was not his fault, they were her own. She was the one who'd run away from him and put herself in that position. She wouldn't have lived in a sketchy apartment barely making ends meet if she would've just stayed with him. She wouldn't have had to be so afraid of what might've happened if she would've just stayed put. Bucky was not about to take any fucking blame for her life choices over the last year because those had been all hers.

Honestly, he was starting to wonder himself if even having an omega was worth all the trouble anymore. It was probably because Adelaine had already made his blood boil to the point of wanting to physically hurt her but they were all starting to just piss him off. Sure she smelled so sweet and downright irresistible a lot of times but he didn't know if fighting her until he'd squished all the will to be her own independent omega out of her was even worth it anymore. He didn't even understand her thought process anymore either. She got so bent out shape over everything as if it were the end of the world having him ask her to put on clothing that was less revealing, or not talk to people he thought she shouldn't talk to. If she wanted to be so fucking independent then why had she even been looking for a fucking alpha in the first place. After all, she'd wanted to be with him just as badly when they first met so yet again she'd brought everything upon herself.

Steve didn't bother to reply as Maisie described the thoughts that had plagued her throughout the last year. He could sense the shift in Maisie, fear leaking into her scent. It was delicious to him, knowing that she was suffering in anticipation of what was going to come her way. It wasn't going to be quiet what Maisie thought but by the end of this week, he knew that he was going to have everything from her that he wanted. Her complete submission being at the top at the list. Running his tongue over his bottom lip, Steve hummed under his breathe. "That's it? You were afraid of me tying you to the bed and teasing you?" Steve couldn't help but let out a small laugh as he shook his head.

"Darlin', if that was all you were afraid of, you were sorely mistaken. Don't you think?" Steve prompted, leaning forward again. His eyes were trained on Maisie now, not paying any attention to the food on his plate. There wasn't much left, there was something far more appetizing in fron tof him now. He cleared his throat, pushing the plate of food out of his way.

"Because I've dreamed of what I would do to you for the past year. I will plan to tease you until you're a mess," Steve agreed, unable to hide his smirk. "I've also thought about doing what Bucky's doing to his omega, hm? She thought it was a wise idea to run right about the same time you did..." he trailed off, his eyes narrowing a bit. "He's got another omega there, just to show his girl what a proper omega does. How they behave, how they act. I've thought about that and I've also thought about tying you down and forcing you to watch as I fuck another omega. The way you want to be pleased, you would suffer because you got nothing but the chance to watch as I pleased someone else."

"Thought about bringing another alpha here, too. Because if you think I'm bad, surely you should be shown what a truly awful alpha would be like. I'd let the alpha have their way with you. But then I realized that the only person that will ever touch you again," Steve spoke as he stood, making his way around the table so that he was standing directly in front of her. "So that wouldn't work. Would it? Can't have you going off to have another alpha's pups," he sneered at the thought. Setting his hand on the table in front of her, Steve leaned forward. "Because. You belong to me."

---

Adelaine's back straightened when she listened to the sounds of Lacy moving through the house. Her face scrunched as her eyes narrowed, anger surging through her veins. She wasn't going to say anything to Lacy because she knew that if she said a single thing, it wouldn't be nice. She wanted to reach out and smack Lacy. She wanted to scream at the woman to stay as far from Bucky as humanly possible. Bucky was hers! She had been claimed by Bucky, she had left her own marks on Bucky's neck. But those marks were gone - she hadn't touched Bucky in a year. And she certainly hadn't been able to mark him the past two nights. Last night, she'd fallen asleep before Bucky joined her in bed and the night before that... she hadn't had anything to do with how it went.

A knot settled in the pit of her stomach. Or maybe it was a cramp. Adelaine wasn't sure but what she was sure she knew was the sudden realization that hit her. Her heat was coming and if it was coming now, after only two missed pills... Adelaine knew that whatever she was going to face wasn't going to be pleasant. She exhaled, looking up as Lacy stepped into the living room. Adelaine forced herself to her feet, steering wide of the other omega.

Adelaine nearly wanted to go and find Bucky and just point out that her heat had arrived earlier than she had expected. Earlier than she was sure even Bucky had anticipated. But she had a feeling that Bucky wouldn't care. At least he wouldn't care in the way she wanted him to. Before she could think too much more about it, Adelaine started for their bedroom. She wanted to lock herself away. Maybe take a shower to cool herself off... let her fingers explore her body so that she could find some sort of relief. Her heat wouldn't be all that bad at first, this was just the telltale stirrings of the start of her heat. Where it went from here, Adelaine didn't know. But she thought Bucky would try to use it against her and already, she decided she was going to try her best to hide it from the alpha. She wasn't sure how she would hide but she was going to try.

Maisie knew that what Steve was going to do to her was much worse than what she could imagine. Just as she knew that her own thoughts had been scary at the time, she’d never put much thought into what he would do if he found her because she literally didn’t let herself think about it. Normally when Steve would enter her thoughts on a particular scary night or whenever Maisie would find ways to calm herself down so she didn’t have to think of the alpha and how upset he would actually be. She spent a lot of her time teaching herself breathing exercises or other ways to help with awful anxieties and they did. She’d drank a lot of calming teas and only let her mind drift when she was dreaming honestly so her fears could have been worse if she’d thought about them, but she really hadn’t let herself because that would’ve also meant she’d have to let herself believe he could find her and she hadn’t wanted that. Living a life oblivious to Steve for a year had kept her from simply running back to him. Looking at the position she was in now though she realized she should’ve just went home to him.

Maisie closed her eyes for a brief moment trying not to just break down right now in front of him. She was a little scared of what was going to happen to her. She wasn’t afraid that Steve would kill her, but only because he’d spent so much time trying to find her and he clearly still wanted to have pups with her that killing her seemed pointless. If she was dead after all, he didn’t get what he wanted. Then she heard him simply mention bringing another omega into the cabin and her fear turned to jealousy, she wouldn’t hide it. Here she was in heat and all she wanted was to feel and please her alpha. So even thinking of having another omega here or anywhere near him for that matter kind of set her on edge.

She could be the omega Steve wanted her to be. She wanted to be that omega for him. And she didn’t want some bitch to just roll in here to teach her how Steve wanted her to be, she also felt bad for Adelaine. The pair had been friends maybe not the best of friends but friends nonetheless, and she didn’t wish what Bucky was doing to her upon anyone.

Maisie scrunched her nose in disgust at the thought of someone else touching her, touching either of them really. He didn’t need to go that far, but she had a feeling someone else would be there soon enough much to her dismay. “Please don’t,” she said softly balling her hands into fists. She normally wouldn’t talk to Steve like this afraid he’d last out more but longer she sat there and thought of someone else pleasing him the worse she felt. “I swear I don’t need her here,” she said feeling her lips start to tremble and tears started form in her eyes. Maisie was honestly more afraid of what she might do if she saw another omega there, and then the back lash she would receive from that. She couldn’t promise not to lash out worse than ever before. “I don’t want someone else to touch me, or you,” she practically begged softly knowing what she wanted didn’t matter, but maybe this one time it would.

Bucky could sense the shift in Adelaine’s scent probably the same time she realized it. Her heat had come and that brought a smirk to Bucky’s face. She was in for it now. Yea it would be hard not to just give in to her and have them both pleased and sore for a week, but that’s not how this week was going to go, and thankfully it would be a little easier since he had Lacy there who he could let all his frustrations onto. Though she was no Adelaine, he supposed she was better than nothing. Either way knowing his little omegas heat had arrived and that she would suffer more was enough for Bucky for the time being.

“I’ll be back down in a few minutes Lacy,” Bucky told her after he too walked inside. “There’s something I need to take care of,” then he made his way right up to the bathroom where he could hear the shower, and as quietly as he could as she didn’t want her to hear him he he undressed and sneaked into the bathroom and joined her in the shower. “I just came up here to tell you that I know your heat is upon us,” he said going to cup her cheek, “I also expect that you’re going to be doing a lot of touching yourself because well I won’t be touching you. And I hope you get nothing from it,” he told her smirking and licking his bottom lip. She was in for an awful week. Because he wasn’t going to touch her and let her be pleasured by him until he knew she was broke, so broken in fact that there was no way she could ever even think to leave him again.

Once he’d successfully told her what he’d wanted Bucky stepped out of the shower then went into one of other bathrooms to for himself. He hadn’t plan on fucking Lacy yet, but he also had a lot of pent up emotions so he decided to bring her up and at least relieve himself somehow. This was the good part about having two omegas around all the time if one of them was bad he could play around with the other. This however wasn’t going to become the norm for him though because with two omegas came headaches. Because as Adelaine had so graciously proven one of them would get jealous of the other and Bucky was aware that by the end of the week there would be a fight.

Steve chuckled as he reached out, patting Maisie's cheek as he tilted his head to the side. "Shh, shh," he chided her lowly, leaning forward to press a kiss to her forehead. "Just a reminder about what's going to happen if you do decide to that you don't want to be the obedient little omega I know you can be," he teased, brushing his thumb over Maisie's cheek. His smirk settled into a predatory one as he motioned toward the empty plates of food. "Clean up. We don't need to leave a mess," he said as he stood. Steve eyed Maisie for a moment, deciding that he was going to up the game a bit. What they had done earlier was nothing compared to what Steve planned to do to her.

"I expect the kitchen to be spotless when you finish," Steve called over his shoulder as he started up the stairs. He closed the bedroom door once he stepped inside, starting to set up the scene that he wanted to play out. Steve ran his fingers over the restraint system that Steve set up in minutes. It was an under the bed set that had interchangeable cuffs that Steve could move as he saw fit. Depending on how he wanted Maisie in front of him. Steve smirked as he eyed the bed before turning to start back down the stairs.

"Omega," Steve called, ignoring the way his cock rubbed against his shorts. He was hard and aching but he was more intent to make Maisie come undone at his touch. Her ran his tongue over his bottom lip as he stepped into the kitchen, watching as she finished cleaning up the kitchen. "How about a bit of relief, hm?" Steve prompted, raising an eyebrow. He hadn't specified what sort of relief would occur. It was only going to be for him, he was sure that Maisie thought it might be for her but there was nothing but increased desperation coming for Maisie. Oh, he couldn't wait for her to figure that out

Adelaine nearly leapt out of her skin when Bucky joined her in the shower. Against her will, her pupils dilated and her lips parted as she eyed her alpha. She wanted nothing more to reach out and touch him. To feel his touch on her skin. Her skin was ablaze and as his fingers cupped her cheek, Adelaine couldn't have stopped herself from leaning into his touch. She let out a small whimper, her eyes finding him. She whimpered at his words, her desire settling into a knot of fear. No. No. There was no way that Bucky was just going to leave her completely alone. There was no way that he wasn't going to leave his omega abandoned while she was in heat. She opened her mouth to plead with him but before she could even gather her thoughts, Bucky was gone.

She whined, her hand sliding down her body. Adelaine wished badly that it was Bucky's hands touching her but she knew that it wasn't going to be. She knew that there was no way that Bucky would agree to touch her... that there was no way he would offer any sort of relief to her. Swallowing around the lump that formed in her throat, Adelaine bit at her bottom lip as she leaned against the shower wall. It wasn't long before she found herself shivering and shuddering against the wall, her lips parted as she let out a small moan. Her orgasm was nothing that she wanted it to be. It offered only a minimal amount of relief. It hardly took the edge off of her pain but it was something, at least.

Adelaine climbed out of the shower and was quick to slide on a pair of shorts. She smirked to herself as she pulled on one of Bucky's worn tshirts. It smelled of him and as much as she didn't want it to, it offered some comfort. She held her head high as she started out of the bedroom, dropping onto the couch in the living room. She squeezed her thighs together, trying to ignore her slick. Already it was starting to dampen her shorts. Adelaine knew that Bucky would be able to pick up on her torment but she was going to play it off as she was fine. Picking out a show on the television, Adelaine glanced up as the pair came downstairs. She grinned at them, tilting her head to the side. "I hope you both enjoyed yourselves," she started, tilting her head to the side. "Because I certainly did," she said, her eyes locking onto Lacy's. She lowered her chin, scenting the shirt that was wrapped around her. If Bucky wanted her to be in pain and jealous, she was going to play the same game.

Maisie didn't let her mind wander while she cleaned the kitchen choosing rather focus on the task at hand than whatever torture Steve was planning for her. She didn't want to know really, but she'd rather just wait until it was happening to know what was going to happen than thinking about it because that had only seemed to make things worse for her. Plus well anything Maisie could think of was nothing compared to what Steve was actually going to do. Therefore instead of letting herself not complete the task that he'd asked of her because she was too busy scaring herself, she thought to happier times so she could clean the kitchen in semi-peace.

And she was only pulled out of her semi-peaceful mindset when she'd heard Steve call for her and mention relief. Probably not for her but maybe since she'd been a good girl and was in heat he'd give her at least a taste of relief. "Coming alpha," she said, trying her best not to sound too desperate or like she was trying too hard to get what she wanted, as she put away the cleaning supplies she'd been using then turning towards him. But oh was she desperate. It was only right after breakfast on the first day of heat but she had felt no pleasure at all and she wanted to. God, Maisie wanted Steve so badly but just knowing she was still even a little numb down there made her sad because even if he did fuck her she wouldn't feel it. Not for at least a couple more hours at least, and with her luck he'd just add more lube to keep the feeling numb.

At least he'd touched her cheek before he'd left after breakfast and he'd kissed her forehead both making her feel a little better. She let herself believe that it was Steve giving her praise even if that wasn't true, it made her feel better. She felt a little calmer about things thinking that he'd praised her, and if she let herself think about it hard enough she could probably convince herself that if she just went along with the torture Steve had for her then he'd praise her more and that thought alone calmed her mind even more. Her body was still on fire and she still had ever desire to actually feel Steve inside of her, knotting her, just fucking being with her, but that was just the heat talking. Her omega, who wasn't always in heat, just wanted to make Steve happy however he saw fit.

Bucky had his fun with Lacy in the shower feeling a little better afterward, he still knew that keeping away from Adelaine was going to be hard for him because well she was in heat and smelled even more scrumptious than normal. Just thinking about it right now as walked towards the living room made his cock harden, this was not going to be an easy week for him either, but he'd be damned before he let her off the hook. She was going to see just how much he'd actually meant every word he'd said to her.

"I'm sure you did enjoy yourself," Bucky said with a smirk stepping in front of Lacy to make sure nothing broke out just yet, everything in due time. "But I'm sure your alone time was nothing compared to what it could've been," he said before he took Lacy's hand in his own and pulled her with him towards the patio outside. He planned to do all the fun activities he knew Adelaine like, that was also flirtatious with Lacy right in front of Adelaine because that just seemed to make things so much more enjoyable for him. "Forgot the marshmallows," he said as he made his way back in past the living room and into the kitchen to grab the bag of marshmallows. Can't roast marshmallows if you forget them, then he walked back outside making sure to leave the door open so every sound the two of them made right outside the door would float right into the house where they could be heard. He wanted her to hear them.

And oh did he play it up, Bucky made sure that he ran his hands up Lacy's leg and played with the hem of her underwear to entice her into letting out sweet moans and whimpers of want. But he still wasn't going to fuck her, just play around with her for a bit, at least for now. Bucky really did have everything planned out and both omegas were playing right into his hand right where he wanted them. Of course, Lacy had been made aware before she'd arrived that this wasn't going to be a permanent thing for her. He'd informed her that there would be no strings, she wouldn't become his new omega, he wasn't going to bond with her, and once they were done things would go back to normal. Because he already had an omega, one that he wanted more than all the rest. He just had to get the one he wanted where he wanted her.

Steve held his hand out to Maisie, giving an encouraging nod of his head. He forced himself to stay calm, not wanting to display just how pleased he was when she took his hand. He was content as he led her up the stairs, his hand untangling from her hand. His hand slid around her body, settling on her lower back. Steve urged her into the bedroom, unable to contain his smirk any longer as he watched Maisie's body tense. She was piecing together something about what was coming her way. "Go on, omega. I want you to undress for me and then I want you to present for your alpha, hm?"

He stood by, leaning against the bedroom door as he watched Maisie do as she was told. He ran his tongue over his bottom lip, biting back a groan while Maisie undressed. He didn't move a muscle until the omega had lowered herself onto her knees on the bed, presenting for him as he had told her to. Steve took a few slow, calculated steps toward where Maisie laid on the bed. Wordlessly, Steve reached down and began to secure Maisie's ankles into the cuffs attached to the restraints. "You smell so good, 'mega," he growled, grabbing her left wrist and attaching it beside her left ankle. Steve repeated the action with her right arm before stepping back to admire his handiwork.

Usually when an omega was in heat, the sex was fast and hard. It was needy and desperate, not soft and loving. This wasn't going to be either of those. Steve was going to take his sweet time, intent on making Maisie fall apart in his hands. "Omega, how about I make you a deal," Steve started as he reached into the nightstand to produce the same bottle of lube that he had used earlier. "If you can cum before you go numb, I'll allow it," Steve spoke, knowing full well that Maisie was still numb. That she wasn't going to cum because her body wouldn't allow her to. Steve coated his fingers in the lube, teasing his fingers between her folds. "How's that sound, darling. Hm?"

"You're right. You want to know what I imagined? Y'know, now that I think about it... my manager from the restaurant. His hands all over me, exploring. Showing me just how capable he was as he bent me over his desk in the office..." Adelaine trailed off, letting out a small moan at the thought. It was nothing that she wanted to be involved with but if Bucky wanted to make her jealous, she could play at that game. It made her want nothing more than to bow at his feet and worship every inch of Bucky's body but if he was so intent on leaving her alone during her heat.. during the heat Bucky had forced upon her? Adelaine thought it was only fair. If he wanted her to hurt, she could at least try to make him hurt. It didn't make her any better of a person but she was in heat and she was far from thinking straight.

Adelaine couldn't help the smirk that found its way onto her features at the look of complete and utter surprise that passed over Lacy's features. She was sure the other omega had never witnessed one of their kind utterly disrespecting their alpha but Bucky and Adelaine had never been the very typical pair. That was part of why they needed each other so badly. Because no one else could ever hope to compare.

Settling back into the couch, Adelaine's eyes narrowed as she watched Bucky return from the patio. She scoffed as she realized he was grabbing marshmallows. "Not going to invite me, Buck?" Adelaine called, her face scrunching a bit as she watched Bucky's form. She knew that she was playing right into where Bucky wanted her and the thought drove her crazy. She had no doubt that Bucky wanted her hurt and jealous and angry and... whatever else he could possibly want out of her.
