House of Alphas Chapter 62: Conquest (Patreon)
Content
You yawned as dinner concluded, massaging your belly full of cum and food. Oh, you felt like you were about to pop.
Yu looked toward you with furrowed brows, “You aren’t tired are you? The night is still young!”
You giggled at Yu’s excitement to spend time with you but before you could answer Sukuna was interjecting. “Let my omega sleep.”
“I’m not thaaat tired.” You say while getting up.
“You have been traveling quite a lot little missy.” Toji kissed you on your head while urging you to your room. “Your rest is important for your health.”
“I know…” You agree that you were quite tired but you wanted to fight it.
Yu sighed, “Darn, I wanted to play conquest…”
“Conquest?” You questioned.
“Yeah, you never played?”
“No, but it’s kind of like a war game right?”
Yu nodded, “Nanami and Getou said you were quite the strategist, so I wanted to see for myself.”
Gojo shook his head, “Ugh I suck at that game.”
“We know.” All your other alphas spoke together.
Your white-haired alpha smacked his teeth, “Assholes!”
“I think that sounds fun, let’s play!” You nod not wanting your time to go to waste sleeping. You wanted to make the most out of this! It was like your weekend!
“What did I say.” Sukuna crossed his arms in annoyance. “You were just yawning don’t give me that look.”
You couldn’t speak before Sukuna saw your expression. Reading your words before you even said them.
He was good at this.
You let out a laugh, grabbing his arm sweetly, “Come on alpha~ one game couldn’t hurt.” You looked up at him with your cute eyes.
“No.”
Time to use your greatest weapon, “Ha! Sounds to me you are afraid to lose?” You also were good at this.
“That’s not-“
Getou added to the fire you have just oiled, “Sukuna was always a sore loser, last time I beat him he set fire to the table.”
Sukuna grits his teeth, “I’m not a sore loser.” There was a moment when everyone kind of stared or avoided eye contact with the alpha. The response was loud enough. “Fine-fuck it…One game. We still need to get to the priestest tower or have all of you forgotten?”
“He said one game let’s go!” You cheered as Yu grinned cheekily.
“Yes! Let me explain the rules!”
“Oi! Did you ignore everything else i just- ngh.” Sukuna sizzled in the distance as you listened to the others explain the game on your way.
Conquest was like the board game risk but with abilities. You conqueror land and whatnot but you also had cards to use to sway the battlefield. Truly you could have played any game in this world and enjoyed it. With magic added to it, it made everything cool. You couldn’t get over how absolutely pretty the board looked. It was in 3D and depending on your color you were the only one that could see your cards unless you flip it over. This was the type of VR technology that you wish was possible without the headset. It was like you were in the future but not the future at the same time.
Everyone got settled around, drinking and laughing. It felt like you were having a family game night.
You had denied the alcohol but Getou poured you a drink anyway with a sneaky comment, “You better drink now because after our mating moon, you may never be able to drink again.” His eyes looked at your pseudo-pregnant belly.
You had released a nervous chuckle that you hid behind your cup. Everything just sort of felt… right. ..but also weird… You watched your alphas feeling as if you were having an out-of-body experience.
“What color you want Toji?” Yu questions while setting up the board.
The bigger alpha rubbed his neck, “I dunno if I wanna play.”
Sukuna rolled his eyes, “You are just saying that because you don’t want to attack YoUr PrInCeSs.”
Toji blushed, “That is not it!”
“Come on it’ll be fun!” Gojo smiled grabbing the pink chief.
“Pink?” Sukuna snorted. “That color a bit girly for an alpha don’t you think?”
“Our omegas says it’s because I’m a material girl.”
“You don’t even know what that means- Yu stop looking at our omega’s stomach!”
“Sorry sorry!”
The commotion erupted in a boisterous noise, making you start to feel drowned out. Months ago you were playing this silly hentai game and now you were in it as the villain prime omega trying to save the people. You had told yourself that after you beat the final boss and before the mating moon you’d leave but the longer you are here the more you realize how difficult of a task that would be. You may have missed your opportunity to go home, your heart and soul were too deep within these alphas. So what you stay until the mating moon then what?
Then what?
You have pups and get plunged into the unknown.
Will there be lifelong peace afterward or will you always be looking over your shoulder? What about now? Are you in danger at this very moment? Are there any other precautions you should be taking? This happy moment can be shattered right before your very eyes just like the red wedding-!
“Oh.”
Nanami had reached over to rub your belly, “You okay?”
You offer him a gentle smile, “Yes… I just got caught up… in my thoughts.” Then you realize the foul smell of something burning. It was you. Your alphas looked about ready to hop skip or jump within a snap of your fingers.
“Hey, what’s wrong sweetheart? We don’t have to play we can just go relax…”
“I knew we shouldn’t have played, she’s too tired for this.”
Yu looked as though he were at fault, “Raven I didn’t mean to-“
“No no~” You shook your head. “I’m sorry I was just thinking about something but it has nothing to do with this… just our journey ahead. I’m a little worried is all, but playing will actually help me sort of relax… so please let’s continue.”
There was a bit of silence but Sukuna spoke up with a little joke, “Just tell me you’re scared of losing.”
“Oh scared of losing! Ha! To you? You wish!”
“Don’t go crying to your daddies when I wipe you clean off the map.”
It was lighthearted jabs that you inwardly thanked Sukuna for. The atmosphere shifted back to its playful chatter.
When the game was about to start Getou had slid you his magical weed pen, and Nanami continued to rub your knee comfortingly. Subtle eyes still flickered toward you from across the table. You knew they were still worried about you but you were happy they didn’t push it.
You had slipped into that mental dark hole that you swore you covered up.
~
Your game of conquest was quite interesting.
Each alpha played differently.
Toji did his best to stay neutral with his ‘turtle’ strategy but you all knew he was only doing that because you were playing. He didn’t want to attack you and he didn’t want to get called out for attacking other people and playing favorites. The poor mental gymnastics of your daddy must have been fierce when you had to roll against him. It was almost like he was secretly begging to lose each match against you. It was hilariously cute and when you get better at the game you will tell him to not play so easily.
Right now you are learning so you will take the handicap!
Sukuna was aggressive like all the things he did in life, while Getou had a more passive approach, lying traps around and waiting for people to land on them. By just looking at the board it would appear that Getou was losing but he was not, which was very scary.
Nanami had a more balanced play between Sukuna and Getou. Yu was going for a defensive play just like Toji but more strategic. He wasn’t afraid to beat you.
You went for an aggressively defensive approach. You weren’t scared to lose troops and you weren’t afraid to give up a fight and recoup. Something Sukuna didn’t know how to do.
Gojo…well you don’t know what the poor alpha was doing.
He was the first to lose…
“Aaaaah~! How could this be!” Gojo pouted as he slid out of his chair dramatically.
“Sorry, Gojo.” You gave him a sad look as you took the last of his troops and moved upon his land.
Sukuna shook his head, “That was a stupid play, and she exploited you for falling into her trap. Very disappointed. But proud of you for going after the weakest link.”
“Heey-“
“Don’t worry Gojo.” You grinned, “Sukuna is gonna fall into my next trap.”
“I’m not falling for shit. I know you just used most of your resources for that, so I’m moving in on you.” Just as Sukuna moved his units across the valley the board glowed blue. “What the fuck!”
Getou grinned wickedly as his trap card was activated. He flipped it over and leaned back in his seat. “Oh my what do we have here~? You’ve landed on my ambush.”
“Tch- that’s fine I don’t care-“
“I will also be attacking you Sukuna.” Nanami commented while moving on his team.
“Are you kidding?!”
You shook your head, “Not a good play to leave yourself open like that Sukuna. You spread your troops too thin and sacrificed far too many. Of course, I knew it would be silly for you to come after me but you just couldn’t help yourself.”
Sukuna downplayed your words, “You got lucky they all like to baby and protect you.”
“Whatever helps you sleep at night.”
“Being in your pus-“
“ROLL!”
Sukuna growled flicking the dice but luck did not favor him.
“Pfft hahah!” Gojo cracked up as Sukuna’s army was the next to be taken out of the game.
“Fuck!” He stood with fire burning on his fists.
“Sukuna!” “Aye!” “Don’t burn the game down!” Everyone shouted together.
The alpha extinguished his flame while tossing up his hands tauntingly, “Come get me when you guys want to have a real fight.” He stormed off angrily-
“Wait!” You called to the alpha as he looked at you with a glare. “Don’t forget my kiss!”
Sukuna clicked his tongue like walking back was such a draining task. He gave you a smack of his lips on your cheek. “Night.” He muttered a bit nicer under his breath.
“Goodnight alpha.” You smiled while continuing your game. You will let him stew in his anger tonight but tomorrow oh you are going to be all in his face about this!
The next person to get out was Toji, not because you guys took him out but because he was tired and falling asleep at the table. Nodding off while smacking his lips claiming ‘he’s up’. You had to push him out of his chair and tell him to take his ass to bed. He gave you a kiss goodnight and forfeited his troops which were split among the rest of the players (he tried to give them all to you). Gojo tried to stay but he too began to fall asleep. The betas had to carry him out. You placed a kiss on his mumbling lips before he was whisked off to bed.
Nanami was the next person to get out. As smiley and cheery as Yu was he was cutthroat for sure. It was starting to be apparent who played this game the most. Nanami gave your lips and belly a kiss goodnight before retreating to his room. Not even a moment after the door closed behind him did you get out!
“Ah, man!” You pout as you lose.
“Sorry sweetheart.” Getou apologized. “But you did play rather well.”
“Yeah, you lasted longer than Nanami!” Yu gave you two thumbs up as if third place was in a way your first place. Like you were no match for these elite players!
“Just you wait! I will get better at this and beat you guys too.” You smiled within the playful banter.
“I’m sure you will.” Getou sounded proud as he said, “She is a stubborn headstrong omega, I would put money on it.” He then reached for your hand, pulling it to his lips while asking, “Are you going to bed?”
“M m.” You shook your head climbing into his lap, “I need to study my opponents so I know how to beat them next time.” He sure was right, you were absolutely stubborn, but he also forgot your odd hyperfixation that likes to kick in at random. You were about to be all over this game.
It was Haibara and Getou left, the two of them going at it while throwing in little jabs and bets. In the end, Yu won the game.
“Dammit!” Getou hissed as Yu stood up with his fists in the air.
“I am victorious!” He chuckled like a mad evil king, but he was so adorable while doing it that you wondered if he was a secret wolf in sheep's clothing.
You clapped for the alpha, “It was a good game.”
Getou rubbed his temple with a sigh, “It was indeed a good game, although I was banking on Toji being a turtle still, if only he didn't forfeit.”
“How does Toji normally play?”
“To be honest he plays well, he just has shit luck.”
That checks out. Your poor daddy had the lowest luck stat. Why on earth does the man with the lowest luck gamble? There was some sick joke here. Maybe it's his dick. All his luck was used for that massive monster in his pants. You let out a high giggle at your thoughts.
“Wacha laughing about missy?” Getou teased while cuddling you close to him.
“Mmmm~hmhmhm.” You hummed but then laughed again.
“What? Tell me giggle bug.” He smiled not even knowing what it was you were laughing about, you just had that affectious effect on him.
“We should play another!” Yu cut in excitedly.
“Nooooo~ my omega and I need our beauty sleep, how else are we going to carry this pack of brutes.”
“Pffft hahah~ you are carrying us just fine Getou. You are far more beautiful than I.” You play with his silky hair and look at him with a soft gaze.
“Do tell me more…” Getou slid his hand upon your thigh while kissing your neck.
You squeak, pushing back as you look toward Yu who was observing with wide eyes. “Getou.” You spoke to him with shyness in your tone. You had two denying toys inside of you and oh YU WAS RIGHT THERE!
“It’s just one person~ or does my omega enjoy a crowd hmm?”
“That was not the same!”
Yu waved his hands, “Please continue! I wish to know the ways of pleasing my own omega!”
“I shall show you.” Your alpha cupped your breasts as you squirmed in his lap.
“S-Suguru-“ you couldn’t finish, the door abruptly opened as a guard walked in swiftly. The man’s face pale.
“What is it?” Yu questioned, tone shifting quickly.
“Sir, it’s the Chi village.”
You fixed yourself up, the room going eerily silent as even Getou’s playful expression went blank.
You noticed how Yu’s jaw tense before he spoke, “Alright… I’ll make my way down early morning.”
“What’s going on?” You questioned as Getou squeezed your thigh lightly. A slight reminder that this was alpha business and to tread carefully. “Sorry…I just want to know if I can help in any way.”
Yu looked a bit dejected, “The Chi village… has been complaining about being sick but we had Doctor Shoko check them over and she found no signs of illnesses… I’m not sure what’s going on but lately, they have been quite frantic claiming they are cursed. I think they are losing it to their paranoia.”
“Oh, well perhaps I can take a look, if you don’t mind?”
The alpha shrugged, “It wouldn’t hurt. We can go by there together on your way out.”
“So early in the morning…” Getou mumbled under his breath.
“Sorry Getou, I know how much you hate waking up early.”
“The things I do for my darling.”
“The cold, vegetables, dirt, mornings, is there anything you don’t complain about?” Yu teased.
“He’s my delicate alpha.” You play along, kissing Getou’s pouty lips.
“The most delicate alpha.”
“Oi.”
You could tell how close the two were, something that wasn’t truly touched upon in the game. Their relationship ran deeper before the MC entered their life. As Getou’s chest rumbled with a chuckle you realized how painful it must have been when he heard of the brown-haired alpha’s death.
You will save him.
That’s what you told yourself because that’s all you could say. You must save him. You must save and protect those that you care about because there are no other options for you…
Getou walked you to your room the two of you chatting about the game and what you could have done differently. Mind games were something Getou excelled at and apparently Yu as well. Behind that smiley face, there was an alpha who did what he could to win.
Although you don’t think it reflected who he was as a person. The alpha was too kind for his own good to actually live the way he played. He would always put himself first before others.
That’s probably how he lost his battle in the game.
You noticed something bright in the distance, you stopped to look, leaning against the banister. Pointing it out to your alpha, “Look, is that fire?”
Getou hummed as he nodded, “It is…I believe the village burns things to ward off evil spirits. Do you know why they are ill? Does your story speak upon such a matter?”
You nodded your head, “Yes… there are some people who claim to be sick…and usually right after they are the ones to transform… I thought maybe if I looked at the village I could understand what is causing such a thing.”
“I see… so a curse put on them much like your friend Junpei.”
“Exactly…I know we don’t have a cure but perhaps this could aid us with information. Just like my mark perhaps one needs a different kind of eye.”
Getou picked up your hand, rubbing his thumb upon your palm, “It’s gone you know… the mark that was on you is no longer there.”
“Is it?” You looked at your hand in surprise, “I never checked after what happened… I just figured it would always be a part of me.”
Getou squeezed you gently, “No… I checked as soon after we knew you were okay…I wonder who it is... the traitor. I was thinking it was someone we knew closely. I was afraid it was going to be Yu… but seeing how easy you were with him I can only assume it was not him.”
You flash the alpha a light smile, you will have to be careful with your behavior, they were all watching you so closely. “No, it isn’t Yu. Or any of your friends. So you can rest easy.”
“Then someone more distant.” Getou hummed.
“Don’t go doing too much digging. I need to have the element of surprise.”
“After the mating moon then, you will tell us everything.”
“Yes…” you drifted off softly.
“You know…” Getou looked toward the fire with a far away gaze, “…those little ticks and expressions that Sukuna talks about… he knows when you are lying and he is good at it. But I notice your uncertainty when we speak upon the matting moon and pups. You didn’t get that way earlier until I made a comment about it.”
Fucking observant bastards.
You gulped as Getou returned his gaze to you. “Is there… something you aren’t telling us?”
“I’m…just afraid… of the future… and what it holds… though I’m aware of how the book ends I don’t know if that will be how our story ends…”
Getou pulled you to him as he wrapped his arm around your waist, “You’re right, but I hope that is all you are concerned about… and not the thought of leaving us. We simply cannot let you go.”
You rest your head against your alpha's chest, “I know, and I don’t think I want to leave anyway.”
“Good…I had people go check out that island of yours…”
You looked toward him with a gasp, “Did they…?”
“Gone. They never came back.”
“What… why would you…you knew that would happen.”
“Exactly. Think of it as a fair warning for you… in case you get any ideas of going there. No one knows what’s there… and it seems you don’t even know for sure if it will take you home, so don’t even try it.”
You sighed through your nose, ”I won’t Getou.”
“Good… now come…let me help you take out your toys so we may sleep.”

“Why are we up so earlyyyy?” Gojo questioned sleepily at breakfast. It was just the two of you eating together at the table.
When you came in he had whined about your lack of cummy tummy- now you sit beside each other eating. Well you were eating Gojo looked like he was sleeping in his food.
You gave him a pitiful expression, “Sorry it’s my fault, I wanted to go with Yu to check out the Chi village. Perhaps I can go down first and you guys can-“
“No.” Sukuna said while walking in with breakfast, “We go together.”
“I… I know but maybe Gojo would like to sleep in more…”
“Nope, I’m up! If you are going I am going!” Gojo began to shovel his food in his mouth making you snort.
You weren’t even going to comment on his quick change of attitude. They seriously couldn't be away from you. Getou was right, the things your alphas do for you.
“Who won last night?” Sukuna question while sliding into his seat.
“Not you.” You retorted so quickly Gojo spit up his food coughing and laughing.
“Get your ass in the air I’m spanking the shit out of you.”
“N-no!” You got up running away as Sukuna chased you around the table. “You shouldn’t have lost- what a terrible play! MAD BECAUSE BAD EEK!”
“I'll protect you- ah~!” Gojo stood up only to be tossed over the table.
“What on earth is going on in here?” Toji walked in, as you ran to him and hugged him tightly.
“Daddy help!”
Toji chuckled holding you to his chest, “Enough playing you two, we gotta get going.”
“I want a rematch with just you and me.” Sukuna pointed at you.
“Yeah yeah, we will play some other time, but technically I won this round.” You boasted proudly enjoying adding salt to his wound.
