Chapter Text
It was one of the rare nights since Bruce's return that Dick got to Patrol with just his pup.
Jason was out causing trouble with Roy in New York, Tim was with the Titans and Bruce was with The Justice League off-planet, which left Dick and Damian to patrol the city.
Dick couldn't be happier especially since his Mate would be returning tomorrow from Russia, they had agreed to meet up at one of Slade's safe houses seeing as they were much nicer than Dick's. And tomorrow Damian had school so he'd drop him off, go see his mate, Bruce would return before Damian got home from School, so Alfred would pick him up and Dick didn't have to worry about it. It was a perfect plan.
But of course, something had to come and screw all of that up, and that something had been Ivy and her Pollen. Heat Inducing Pollen.
Dick bent over panting for breath that he couldn't seem to catch, they were about 3 blocks away from the damn greenhouse and the pollen was working fast.
"Grayson come on! we have to get back to the cave." Damian grabbed his arm trying to pull him forward but Dick could only pant and stumble a little as his pup pulled on him.
"Or at least somewhere safer than an ally way Grayson! Come on!" Damian was trying to put on an irritated front but Dick could see right through him. His pup was anxious, and Dick needed to fix it. Whining gently he tried to stand up and move again but a vicious cramp chose that moment to hit him like a bus, causing dick to stumble to the ground.
"Grayson!"
"What happened?"
The voice was hard, demanding, and it screamed danger to Dick. Dick Growled lowly tugging his pup closer to him best he could while clutching his stomach, looking up he saw orange and black, but there wasn't a scent he could smell.
Damian perked up seeing Slade, "Grayson got hit with Ivy's pollen and is going into heat" he explained quickly feeling his instincts grow more insistent that he listens to his omega's pulling and whining to get behind him.
Slade stared hard at the growling omega on his knees, trying to pull the pup behind him.
"Is he aware?" Slade slowly moved forward an inch before the growling doubled in volume and the sweet heat smell was tinged with fierce protectiveness.
"he was but I don't think he's gonna stay that way for much longer." Damian scowled up at Wilson when the Alpha didn't make a move to get closer right away.
Slade nodded once before crouching down and removing his scent blocker just enough for Dick to smell it.
After Dick recognizes his Alpha is here, a Slow happy smile appears on his face and a Keen for his Alpha to take him home.

After getting Dick and Damian to his safe house the alpha was quick to move them to the bedroom.
"There are some extra blankets and pillows in the closet down the hall, bring them and help him build a nest" He ordered helping Damian escape Dick, who had been clutching the pup's hand the entire time. Dick whined and reached for the boy as Damian ran out of the room, stuck in the Bridal carry Slade had him in.
"I know birdy, but he'll be right back. in the meantime let's get you into some soft clothes yeah?"
Dick's instincts were in control right now and he didn't know why his alpha had sent his puppy away. Whining loudly he wiggled in his alpha's arms trying to escape them but right now all of his limbs were jelly and wouldn't cooperate.
Slade huffed placing Dick on the bed, quickly stripping him of his Nightwing suit and pulling on a pair of boxers on the boy along with a t-shirt. Both were comically large on him but they both did the job well enough. Pushing his partner so he laid flat on the bed Slade also quickly stripped throwing on a pair of sweat pants and a sleeping shirt before Suddenly Damian was back carrying an armload of blankets and pillows.
Dick chirped happily at the sight of his pup, a loud purr forming in his throat as he caught sight of all the nest-building material.
As Damian set down the items, he looked over at Slade finding the man putting his hair into a ponytail. He didn't know why but his instincts were also going nuts saying to get into the would-be nest with his omega and pull the alpha with him. The Nest needed protection while he looked after Richard right? But maybe Slade wouldn't be enough... well he had weapons on him he'd just be back up, in case it was needed while he watched over Richard.
Dick grinned and started quickly building the nest for his pup and mate making sure the walls of pillows were secure and the blankets were in just the right areas, it was shaping up to be a wonderful nest and his instincts were finally calming down some, making him purr. Looking over, his pup decided to try climbing in the nest in the uniform! That tight, wet from the rain, hiding all sorts of weapons, uniform! He was quick to sit up and look around, finding the clothes his alpha laid out for the pup, Dick swiftly grabbed them and reached for his pup.
Slade made a trip to the kitchen grabbing water bottles and snacks for them all when he heard a loud yelp followed by a louder "Richard unhand me! What are you doing- ah!" the sound of Damian shouting was concerning enough but the low growl from Richard was enough to get him moving back to the bedroom much faster than he'd ever admit to.
Looking in he found himself with an amused smile as he watched the pup be scruffed and a little red mark on his neck showing he got nipped, probably for him fighting against whatever the omega had been trying to do. Dick narrowed his eyes at Damian's sluggish struggles against the submission hold, before leaning down and nipping again at the boy's neck. Just to get him to comply, a mother's way of letting their pup know that it was time to submit and listen. Damian whined but went limp with a scowl on his face, as he let Dick lay him on his back and took off the cape before starting on the tunic.
Damian's muscles had been reduced to wet noodles, he could usually fight a submission hold but then dick had nipped him ( something only a Mother does as a last resort to get her puppy to listen ) and he was reduced to goo. Damian scrunched up his nose as he felt the cape being lifted away, whining when he felt him reach for the clasps of his suit. The tingling sensation of submission sat heavy in his bones so he couldn't fight Dick at all, only whine and look away.
Slade chuckled softly when he saw his little bird start stripping the younger boy like he was a baby, the boy even making it more convincing when he started whining like one.
Damian's eyes snapped to the doorway as soon as he heard it, a furious blush rising to his cheeks before a squawk left his mouth, as he felt his legs being pushed towards his chest and his pants being tugged off. " Ri-Richard!!" He wanted to kill Wilson as soon as he could when the man grinned and chuckled at his embarrassment, he swore as soon as this submission had worn off he was going to.
Finally, the babe was just in his white underwear and all that gross uniform was out of his nest. he grinned down at his baby before leaning to kiss his nose making the pup whine louder trying to move his arm and legs. Smiling he kissed his nose again before reaching over and grabbing his alpha's shirt and slipping it over his boy's head and threading his arms through the sleeves. The shirt was massive on the pup and went down to his knees but it was adorable. Dick grinned and bundled his baby in his arms pulling him close to his chest before moving to get them both settled in the nest more comfortably.
He knew Dick wasn't in his right mind but he couldn't help the amused sound that escaped him when Dick moved Damian's head to his neck right next to his scent glad, trying to soothe the pup, and unintentionally forcing the boy's instincts to take the reins and leave his logical mind out of the equation. Dick smiled and gently licked at the boy's neck where he nipped before looking up and locking eyes with Slade. A happy content purr bubbled out of him as the smell of honey-sweet heat slowly permeated the room.
Whatever had been in that pollen seemed to affect them all to some degree, because Slade was finding it harder to ignore the urge to scent mark them both as his.
Pushing off the wall Slade made his way to the nest waiting until his Omega chirped his approval before entering and getting settled, setting the water bottles and food on the nightstand. Damian finally seemed to be able to move around as he adjusted his head so he could 'glare' at Slade, his face still blushing and his glare had less than half of its usual strength, showing just how far he's gone.
Slade reached over and swiped his wrist on top of the pup's head, before moving them all so they were all laying down in the nest. With Damian in between them with his back towards Slade and Dick's shirt clutched in his hands. Slade felt a smile tug on his lips as he watched Dick lean down and nuzzle the pup, making Damian give a happy chirp and a content purr.
Dick leaned down and kissed his baby's head before looking at his mate, a happy scent drunk smile on his face as he reached over and brought Slade's arm over them. Damian was purring and nuzzling his face into Dick's chest acting more like the puppy Dick knew he was. His Alpha was right there holding them both in his protective embrace, the room smelled of the pack, Damian's happy puppy scent and Slade's caring 'I'd kill anyone for you' content scent, and his body was warm, happy and it couldn't get any better.
It was Perfect. Just simply Perfect.
